Chapter 635: Witnessing History (2)
With Sargeras’s strength, even if an Old God Devoured a planet and grew into a complete body, he still had the ability to eliminate it. Regarding things that he could deal with within his abilities, even if he were vigilant, he wouldn’t feel fear. Only after he saw with his own eyes that an Old God had corroded and corrupted a titan world-soul could he find the feeling of substitution.
It wasn’t until this moment that Sargeras truly realized that what Roy had said before was true. A powerful force was corroding world-soul titans through these Old Gods!
Uneasiness brought fear, fear brought terror, and terror brought panic. Sargeras clearly realized that if these Old Gods were allowed to continue spreading, all the unborn world-souls in the universe would become targets, and the titans would no longer obtain new people. The corrupted world-souls would even turn around to deal with the titans.
Regarding this matter that concerned the survival of the titans, Sargeras finally began to feel fear, so he immediately began to think of ways to deal with it.
Of course, Sargeras could easily eliminate Gods, and he could even mobilize the entire Pantheon. But there were too few titans. Even if all of them went out to search for Old Gods in the entire universe, how long would it take to clean them up? And during this time, how many Old Gods would be released?
Sargeras thought hard but to no avail, so he had no choice but to seek help. The first person he thought of was Roy, so he personally opened the gate of Mardum and brought him out.
Facing Roy’s mocking tone, Sargeras didn’t say anything. He just asked him if there was any way to resist the corrosion from the Void.
But Roy had no clue about this. To be honest, since he became a demon, he had been to many worlds. Ever since he gradually came into contact with the concept of the Void, he had been paying attention. The corrosion of the Void seemed to be spreading in many worlds, but he had never seen any world that effectively blocked Void corrosion.
In the worst case, just like in Ashan, even the Dragon God had been completely devoured by the Void in the end…
It wasn’t only the titans. The upper echelons of the angels and demons also realized the immense danger brought about by Void corrosion, so they were all thinking of solutions. From the situations that Roy had come into contact with, the angels seemed to blame the existence of the Void for the inevitable phenomenon of the increase in entropy in the universe. Therefore, the high-level angels in Eden gradually had a thought, which was to reduce the increase in entropy by limiting the reproduction of humans. In their opinion, the corrosion of the Void was unstoppable, and one day, the universe would welcome extinction. All they could do was to delay the arrival of this time.
This was also why Roy had encountered Raphael’s clone in the Darksiders world and found that Raphael had already fallen… Perhaps in Raphael’s opinion, the material world would eventually be devoured by the Void, so it was better to become a part of the Void first.
In fact, Raphael was probably not alone in sharing this sentiment. Roy had only seen a limited number of high-level angels on the side of Heaven, Gabriel, Michael, and Raphael. What about the other high-level angels? Where did they go?
And it was the same for the Abyss. Why were most of the Deadly Sin Demon Kings missing? For example, Roy had only found Beelzebub’s shell in the Abyss… For some of them, their clones were around. But for others, no one had seen their clones. So, where did these Deadly Sin Demon Kings go?
Roy raised his head and looked at the starry sky where the Twisting Nether was in the distance. Back then, he and Lilith had separated there, and then Lilith had headed toward the entrance of the Void. Inferring from this, could it be that the other Deadly Sin Demon Kings had also entered the Void?!
Could they have really joined because they couldn’t win?
The more Roy thought about it, the more terrified he became. He quickly retracted his gaze, not wanting to look at the Void rift anymore. He was afraid that if he continued thinking about it, even he would fear the Void.
Speaking of which, Roy couldn’t help wondering if Chaos power was really enough to fight against the Void.
It wasn’t that Roy didn’t have confidence in Lilith, but he didn’t have confidence in his own strength. After all, he had fallen into the Void once, so he knew very well that the Void was as large as the Infinite Worlds. Even though he had the power of Chaos, which could fight against the Void, could his personal strength really compare to the entire universe and the Infinite Worlds?
Therefore, Roy couldn’t give any answer to Sargeras’s question and could only remain silent.
Faced with Roy’s silence, Sargeras was disappointed. The two of them floated silently in space, quietly watching the planet in the distance collapse and perish.
An intense light erupted, and the core of the planet exploded. The world-soul residing in the core of the planet revealed an illusory figure in this violent explosion. It was an indescribable and extremely distorted monster that was even more terrifying than the Old God. It roared loudly at where Sargeras and Roy were, and through soul voice transmission, the two of them heard its anger and tyranny. But in a short moment, this illusory figure and the enormous Old God were torn apart in the intense light.
Eventually, this planet would completely turn into countless fragments flying in space. These fragments would become innumerable asteroids roaming in the universe until they were captured by the gravity of other planets one day. Either they would turn into a meteor shower and burn up in the atmosphere, or they would surround the planets and become part of the ring system…
Sargeras felt very uncomfortable that he had personally buried his own kind. But after this planet exploded, his eyes suddenly became resolute. He said to Roy, “Osiris, the reason I spared your life and imprisoned you is that I discovered the difference between you and other Twisting Nether demons in our battle. If I’m not wrong, you can enter the Void Domain, right?”
Roy nodded. That was right. Ever since he fell into the Void, he had evolved and modified his body and found that he had a special ability. He could take the initiative to ‘sink’ into the Void!
Under normal circumstances, it wasn’t easy for the material world to come into contact with the true Void. Although the Void was the background of the material world, it required special methods to break through the barrier and enter the background. Not only did it require forbidden knowledge about the Void, but it also required special rituals and immense energy to find the weak points of the Void to open a gate to the Void. But Roy didn’t need these things. His ability to sink into the Void didn’t need to be so complicated.
After getting confirmation, Sargeras didn’t hide anything and said directly, “Okay. As a condition for releasing you, I need you to do something. Take me into the Void!”
Hearing this, Roy was very surprised. “Are you joking? Take you into the Void?! Do you know what this means?”
“Of course I know!” Sargeras said. “Once I enter the Void, I may be corroded by it. But don’t worry. With my strength, I should be fine for a short time.”
“… What do you want to do after entering the Void?” Roy asked in puzzlement. “It can’t be just to see that domain with your own eyes, right? It’s meaningless.”
However, Sargeras shook his head. “I’m not asking you to take me into the Void just to see the Void Domain. What I want you to do is to bring me to find those Void Lords you mentioned!”
Hearing this, even Roy was stunned. Then he said in disbelief, “You want to find Void Lords?! What are you going to do? Negotiate?!”
Inexplicably, a scene flashed in Roy’s mind. It was the scene of Doctor Strange negotiating with Dormammu in the Marvel Universe… He couldn’t help it. He felt that this scene was extremely similar to what Sargeras wanted to do…
But Sargeras didn’t have the Time Stone, so Roy felt that Sargeras was crazy.
However, Sargeras’s gaze was very firm. He was already mentally prepared for what he wanted to do. He shrank his body to the same size as Roy, stretched out his hand to pinch Roy’s shoulder, looked at Void Angel Auriel on his other shoulder, and then said firmly, “Demon, I’m not discussing it with you, but giving you an order! You have no right to refuse!”
Roy looked at Sargeras speechlessly. “Okay, since you want to seek death, I have no reason to stop you. I can bring you into the Void, but I can’t guarantee that I can bring you to a Void Lord. You have to know that the Void is unimaginably large.”
“You don’t have to worry about this!” Sargeras laughed out loud. “Before killing the Old God just now, I obtained some tissue from it. Next, I’ll use these tissues to make a navigation device with the technology of the Pantheon that can help us find the locations of the Void Lords in the Void!”
There’s such a method? Roy found it a little unbelievable. But after he thought about it carefully, it seemed like there was really such a possibility. After all, the Void Lords released the Old Gods, and using the Old Gods to trace back to the source might really be able to find the locations of the Void Lords in the boundless Void.
Roy couldn’t stop Sargeras’s decision. Moreover, he was actually very curious about what the Void Lords looked like, so he didn’t say anything else and followed Sargeras back to his starship to wait for him to complete the navigation device…
However, Roy had a vague premonition that Sargeras might reap the deepest despair this time… Perhaps it was precisely because of this despair that led to Sargeras’s fall. And Roy would become the one to witness Sargeras’s fall with his own eyes…
