Chapter 1436

1436 The missing paragraph from Chapter 1437(Fourth Update)

This memory was the missing paragraph that Wang Baole had seen previously!

The emperor’s plan had succeeded in a part. He had successfully attracted the wood tribulation and left it between his brows. At the same time, he had split a hundred thousand divine thoughts to devour the black wooden nails that had also turned into a hundred thousand pieces.

However, in the end, after he had succeeded in absorbing ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine divine thoughts, due to the uniqueness of the universe and the integration of Immortals, he had failed with Wang Baole.

He had turned into Wang Baole’s remnant soul and had become completely independent, making it impossible for the emperor to integrate with him… if the emperor was given a certain amount of time, he might be able to think of other ways to solve the problem.

Or perhaps, if he was in a normal state, he could come out of seclusion once again and head over personally. He could set things right according to what he knew. He could forcefully integrate with the emperor and complete himself.

However… Wang Baole wasn’t the only one who had an accident. The Empyrean Lord himself… had an accident as well.

This accident was a huge problem that had appeared in his body. It was what the Empyrean lord had meant by “Lust”!

The truth behind the six desires.

In reality, although the Empyrean Lord’s memories hadn’t been completely restored, as the one hundred thousand divine thoughts returned one by one, fragmented images appeared more or less in his mind.

Even though these images were incomplete and could not be of much use, and it was difficult for him to piece them together, there were still a few fragmented images that he could barely piece together.

And so… one day, in the Imperial Emperor’s memories, he remembered a person.

That person was a woman called lust. He had a vague impression that his death in his previous life was indirectly related to this woman called lust.

At the same time, he had a hunch that after his death in his previous life, this woman named Lustful had placed a backup plan on his corpse.

She wanted to control him.

This backup plan didn’t appear when the emperor was in his normal state as time passed. It lasted until he triggered the wood calamity and his body became extremely weak. The power of lustful was like a venomous snake that had been waiting for a long time. It appeared without a sound, it was revealed.

It wasn’t until Wang Baole’s accident that the emperor was unable to complete his absorption process. It wasn’t until Luo’s second attempt to challenge him that the emperor’s injuries became even more severe, the desire that had been hidden was also quietly spreading. It seemed to have accumulated enough power and exploded instantly!

The power of the desire was the power of the seven emotions and six desires. It entwined with the Emperor’s divine soul and fleshly body, corroding it, torturing it, and gradually trying to take control of it.

At the same time, it affected his subordinates in the prime reaches dao-space, causing the desire of all the war generals to explode out and start a rebellion.

In fact, this was the reason why the seven emotions and six desires had appeared in the prime reaches dao-space.

Next, the emperor, who had been influenced by desire, struggled with his rationality and desire. He suppressed the prime reaches dao space, torturing and ravaging his former subordinates. Even those who had surrendered were cursed by him, the reason for all of this was that the Emperor wanted to release his desire!

If he didn’t release it, he would completely sink into oblivion.

Thus, the third level of the world of burial appeared, where all the people he had killed were buried. At the same time, the war generals were all turned into batteries. This was because… to resist his desires, he needed more life force.

As for the second level, it was a place the emperor had set up to resist his own desires… a garbage dump!

That place was a garbage dump filled with emotions.

He would bestow different desires upon those who had surrendered to him. He would allow the people of the second world to cultivate their desires… so that they could help him share them!

It was the same as creating another source. Only then could his own desires be continuously sent into the past, giving him a chance to recover.

In truth, the first world and the second world were intentionally isolated by the emperor. He wanted to completely seal the second world so that the desires within would form their own cycle. That way, they wouldn’t be able to infiltrate the first world.

As for him, he would be much safer in seclusion in the first world.

At the same time, the seal on the second world was one-sided. In other words, the desires there wouldn’t be able to infiltrate the first world, but the desires of the first world could be sent to the second world.

Hence, in the countless years that followed, the Emperor would send his growing desires that he couldn’t suppress to the second world. He would use this method to relieve the pressure on himself.

At the same time, he silently waited for an opportunity. He did not give up. He still hoped that one day, he would be able to suppress his desires so that he would not be controlled. He still hoped that one day, he would be able to fuse with the last remnant of his soul outside, he would be able to complete himself.

That was why he was unwilling. However, this unwillingness was in accordance with his desires. In order to prevent his desires from becoming too powerful, the emperor tore apart the desires in the second level of the world and turned them into seven emotions.

However, the effects didn’t seem to be very good.

With the passage of time, even though he had done everything he could to vent his desires, the long period of weakness caused the emperor’s desires to gradually increase. They became stronger and stronger. No matter how much he tried to vent his desires.., he couldn’t suppress the rate of growth.

This caused him to be in a daze most of the time. There wasn’t much time left for him to truly wake up.

This made the Empyrean lord realize… that he had failed completely.

That was because, in his current state, unless Wang Baole chose to fuse with him and gave up everything on his own initiative, he wouldn’t be able to devour anything that stood in his way.

Furthermore… according to the Empyrean Lord’s judgment, even if he used some means to successfully devour the last remnant soul, it would still be difficult for him, who was controlled by his desires, to suppress his desires.

That was why he had said so much to Wang Baole. That was why he had shown Wang Baole this memory. That was why he had finally said… You’re too late. I’ve failed.

He had lost to fate and time.

The moment the door to the first level was pushed open and the law of desire from the second level entered, the Emperor had lost all hope.

That was also why the Guardian, Xuan Chen, had asked the question three times before the door.

“Have you thought it through?”

The “You”referred to both Wang Baole and the emperor.

The person who had answered him was the former, but to Xuan Chen, the former and the latter were the same person. Therefore, in the end, he didn’t stop him. Instead, he made way for him.

Wang Baole’s expression was complicated. He slowly retracted his hand that had touched the memory light spot. He raised his head and looked at the emperor whose body was shrouded in the increasingly dense black fog, which had completely enveloped his figure. He looked extremely blurry.
