"Poison... is the Initial Sequence poison?"
Upon hearing this, Yun You hesitated slightly, feeling sowhat incredulous.
Currently, from the information she grasped, the Initial Sequence might be the only thing capable of making soone a god. It is also the treasure pursued for a lifeti by countless Tier Six Apprentice Death Gods.
But now, Deng claims it's harmful. Doesn't this directly negate the pursuit of modern Tier Six Apprentice Death Gods?
And if there's an issue with the Initial Sequence, how are the Tier Six supposed to ascend to Tier Seven?
Yun You was left utterly baffled.
"It's just a taphor."
The Penguin Lamp shook its little wings and leisurely explained, "Though it's close enough."
"In the past, for the beings of Supre Heaven, nurturing so Tier Seven True Gods helped them better govern the world, managing the rules of all things."
"But human history is truly long, with countless talented individuals throughout. Even if a thousandth could beco a True God, the number of True Gods in Supre Heaven would surpass thousands."
"However, Supre Heaven doesn't need that many True Gods, nor too many Tier Six Death Gods who have a chance to ascend to True God."
"Thus, Supre Heaven reduced the distribution of the Initial Sequence and even added so unknown 'things' within."
"In this way, the number of people qualifying to beco True Gods greatly diminishes. Even if there were a lucky few in certain eras, they'd feel regret after absorbing the flawed Initial Sequence."
"Such a pity... Your teacher truly had great talent. If born in the past, he'd surely be renowned worldwide as a True God like the 'War Master.'
"But now, it's impossible."
The Penguin Lamp shrugged, expressing helplessness.
"Gulp..."
Yun You's throat moved as she tried to speak, but she didn't know where to begin.
She felt incredibly ironic now... It's as though the strong of this era have been insulted by the so-called "Supre Heaven."
Zhao Xuan struggled for nearly a hundred years, waiting countless tis, finally obtaining the 'Celestial Ku Blessing' through unsavory ans from mortal lives, a blessing that's incomplete.
Jin did the sa, giving too much in pursuit of an Initial Sequence.
But now, Deng relentlessly burst that bubble of lies.
"So..."
After a prolonged silence, Yun You finally lifted her head and murmured, "What kind of impact will this 'thing' have on a person?"
"All-encompassing."
Deng waved his hand, explaining, "First, the body gradually weakens, mory deteriorates, then so diseases will slowly erode his physique."
"Finally, when the 'toxins' within the Sequence reach an unprecedented level, he will... die."
"Yes, just death."
"It's because Zhao Xuan realized this point that he had to abandon his body prematurely and enter Supre Heaven."
"Losing the physical form ans having little influence on the real world, and it ans he can't beco stronger, can't advance further."
"For most Death Gods, even True Gods up high, it's a punishnt harsher than soul dispersal; it's sothing they cannot accept under any circumstances."
Evidently fearing that Yun You might inquire about cures, Deng shook his head in advance, "There's no solution."
"No solution..."
In an instant, Yun You's internal hope shattered.
"After all, it's poison personally concocted by Supre Heaven. Not just your master, who's barely stepped into the True God Realm, even those veteran deities have no ans to resist."
Deng helplessly pursed his lips.
"And actually, before you claid the Saint's Remains, I had already warned about this."
"Rember the last prophecy I gave you?"
Yun You was slightly stunned but quickly rembered.
"In this matter, the greedy will et no good end."
Back then, Yun You thought the words referred to Zhao Xuan and Shen Ye among others, for indeed those people were greedy and eventually died indirectly due to their greed.
But she never expected that this greed would also include herself and Jin.
"Then... how much ti does he have left?"
After a long silence, Yun You finally asked softly, her tone tinged with worry.
"I don't know."
Deng shook his head.
"Everyone's 'physical death' ti is different. So, like Zhao Xuan, absorbed more toxins, so he only lived for half a year and then had to abandon his body."
"Others, as I know, can live for a few years, even a decade, but at most it won't exceed twenty years; this is the maximum ti limit for poison onset."
"As for your teacher..."
Deng paused slightly, then turned to glance at Jin.
"His condition isn't good; he's just pretending to be carefree before you, but in truth, the toxins have begun eroding his organs and bone marrow. I think he has too much on his mind, living daily imrsed in worries and concerns for the future, indirectly hastening the poison's effect."
"Years? A year? Or... a few months? Hard to say, but the ti shouldn't be too long."
"So, you should prepare yourself ntally."
...
Truthfully, before hearing these words, Yun You had already tried preparing herself ntally.
However, when Deng indeed reported the ti, she couldn't help but close her eyes, her hands slightly trembling.
