Chapter 2263 Chimeric Fiend God
Chapter 2263 Chimeric Fiend God
Lin Mu couldn't help but feel a chill upon hearing about the war.
"One of the Three Greatest Wars of the Entire Cultivation world?!?" Lin Mu visibly gulped. "Not just one of the great wars, but the Greatest… Just how massive was it?" he couldn't even begin to comprehend something that could encompass all that.
It was a massive event, something that couldn't be ignored at all. "It was something that still has lasting effects." Xukong spoke in a serious tone. "And because it was the most recent of the three greatest wars, the memories are still fresh among those that lived through it." He stated.
Lin Mu went silent as he heard it. He had been through one war before, but it was minuscule compared to it. He had fought the war against the Shadow Gloom Bone Lord on the Xiaofan world, and had been frustrated and tired of it.
He wished to never have to participate in something like that again.
Knowing how exhausting a 'small' war like that was, Lin Mu didn't know how much worse a war spanning the entire cutlass world would be like.
"When did the war happen?" Lin Mu questioned.
"The war happened over five million years ago." Xukong answered.
"F-five million years ago?" Lin Mu did a double take at hearing it.
Five million years was a massive time that was unimaginable even to the major experts of the cultivation worlds. No immortal would be able to live that long, which would only leave Celestials and greater experts being able to experience it all.
"And its still 'recent'?" Lin Mu spoke.
"It might seem long, but five million years is still a relatively short period of time for the true experts. Even for celestials it is a time that they can experience as long as they manage to stay alive." Xukong replied. "Though the actual time period that the Chimeric Fiend God led the war wasn't long… it was just a single century." He stated.
"A century of war…" Lin Mu muttered thinking of all that could have happened.
It looked like a long time, but if one considered the distance one would need to travel to get between the worlds it was actually short. A large army wouldn't just be able to teleport everywhere, as such would have to go there physically often, thus the time taken to get there could be a few years long.
The fact that the Chimeric Fiend God managed to cause one of the three greatest wars alone was a testament to his power and reach.
"No wonder his Karma is so great… If he's caused such a big conflict and affected the realms." Lin Mu had learned that the amount of Karma one had was dependent on how much that person affected the universe.
The Saintess's Karma was already great and her name was not something that could be lightly taken. Xukong was someone several times above that, which showed just how great his influence had been on the realms.
And then there was the Chimeric Fiend God who had managed to do the same in a short period of time.
"The Chimeric Great Revolutions Cultivation technique also affected the flow of the war a lot right?" Lin Mu questioned.
"The Chimeric Great Revolutions Cultivation technique also affected the flow of the war a lot right?" Lin Mu questioned.
"It did, of course." Xukong nodded. "Almost all people belonging to his camp practiced it, which gave them great strength. The technique is elusive such that it actually allows one to utilize not just one element, but all the Mortal, and Heavenly elements!" he revealed, much to Lin Mu's shock.
"W-what!?" Lin Mu was stunned. "They can use all of them? How's that even possible? What about affinities?" he had a lot of questions.
"Of course, affinities were still a thing, but the Chimeric Great Revolutions Cultivation technique allowed them to learn how to control other elements regardless. Not to mention, depending on the personal affinity of the cultivator, the properties of the Chimeric Qi would vary too. The Chimeric Qi that we saw here… it seems to be highly inclined towards darkness and Corrosive Qi." Xukong explained. "The ability to be modified is one of the biggest abilities and benefit of the Chimeric Qi." He added. "So it can have different properties… even the Qi is a 'Chimera', true to its name." Lin Mu muttered to himself. "For someone to create a technique like this and invent the Qi too… no wonder their karma was so strong… That image almost made me stop my breaths." He said.
"What?" Xukong was astounded by Lin Mu's words. "What do you mean it made you stop your breath?" he was concerned.
"Huh?" Lin Mu tilted his head. "When you told me the name, I saw the image of the Chimeric Fiend God." He answered before giving an account of all that had happened.
He told Xukong the features of the Chimeric Fiend God, the pressure he felt as well as the drastic situation he was in.
"If not for your voice, I would have been in a really bad condition." Lin Mu stated.
But this was even more shocking to Xukong.
"My voice? I didn't interfere in it." Xukong stated, making Lin Mu's eyes go wide.
"What… that wasn't you?" Lin Mu couldn't believe it. "The voice brought me out of my stupor… the illusion broke because of it." He had been fully convinced that it was Xukong that had helped him.
After all, this was not the first time Xukong had done something like this before and Lin Mu had reckoned that he had been told the name with this in mind.
"That voice you heard… it was certainly not me," Xukong replied. "I didn't even know you experienced all that." The spider himself couldn't believe this had happened, but when he went through the shared memories of Lin Mu, he couldn't help but confirm it.
"If that wasn't your voice that broke the illusion… then who was it?" Lin Mu was at his wit's end.
The same could be said for Xukong, as the implications of all this were far too great.
