Chapter 800 Things to do
"I find this very strange, too," N'Zoth said suspiciously. "Common sense suggests that the Dark Lord should have become an Old God, but now it's turned out like this. So we can only cast our suspicions on the newly born Old Gods, and among these newly born Old Gods, you are the most likely to awaken into an Old God."
After hearing what N'Zoth said, Yun's eyes widened in shock. "Ah? How could this be? I just fought the Burning Legion, how could I suddenly awaken as an Old God? This is too unbelievable!"
Yun pondered inwardly, the timing of this Old God's appearance was truly bizarre. Argus had just awakened, and he had only just mastered a portion of the Titan's power. The two events happened almost simultaneously. Yun would never believe there was no connection. Furthermore, if someone told him this was a conspiracy against him, Yun would probably believe it without hesitation. After all, he had been plotted against so many times. While he still didn't know how to defend himself, at least he could now identify those that were clearly intended for him.
"In fact, the greatest difficulty in advancing to the level of an Old God lies in the corruption of the Star Soul," N'Zoth explained. "In other words, you must possess a Star Soul of your own. Once this problem is resolved, everything else becomes simple."
"Wouldn't it be enough to just check which star soul has been corroded?" Yun suggested with a relaxed look.
N'Zoth shook his head and explained with a wry smile, "How could it be that easy? Many Star Souls awaken, even the Titans can hardly detect them. Over the years, the Titans have been dedicated to building the Magic Web, hoping to obtain information about any awakening Star Souls as soon as possible. We Old Gods also continuously spread void energy throughout the universe, with the same goal of obtaining news of awakening Star Souls earlier."
Yun couldn't help but feel a little surprised after hearing this. He asked, "Huh? Is it really that hard to find? There seem to be only seven or eight Titans left now. Aren't there only seven of you Ancient Gods?"
He thought to himself, with so many Old Gods and Titans, plus the Elune and Argus he knew, it seemed that the awakening of the Star Soul should not be a rare thing.
"What are you thinking about? So much time has passed since the explosion of the mother star. The energy contained in the fan-shaped surface produced by the explosion of the mother star alone should be quite considerable. We have been searching for tens of thousands of years before we finally found these, and this was after exploring countless planets. Maybe after we complete the search, the planets we missed may have awakened their star souls. What's more, the universe is so vast, how can we explore other areas? It's not easy to find them!" Enzos said with a look of suspicion.
"Well, if that's the case, doesn't that mean there are still many planets with the potential to awaken their Star Souls? Wouldn't that put us at a disadvantage?" Yun interjected anxiously. After all, with such a vast universe, the number of planets capable of awakening their Star Souls would be incalculable. Wouldn't that mean the number of Titans would be enormous?
"It's not as simple as you say!" N'Zoth explained quickly. "Planets can indeed generate energy, but the first beneficiaries are the life forms on them. Nourished by this immense energy, they grow stronger, and this in turn has an impact on the planet. Only when the planet finds a way to gather this energy can it finally awaken. Therefore, a being capable of controlling sufficiently powerful energy must first appear."
"Strong enough? Just how strong is enough?" Yun asked suspiciously, his doubts growing deeper. This was completely different from what he knew. "Have you ever heard of the Dark Demon?" Yun asked quickly, suddenly remembering the name.
"Of course I know. You are talking about Sanivek, right?" Enzos replied casually.
"Exactly!" Yun exclaimed excitedly. "From what I understand, they are actually beings that have mastered sufficient energy, and their energy is so abundant that it often even surpasses that of the Ancient Gods. However, because they failed to successfully corrupt the Star Soul, they ultimately did not become Ancient Gods."
N'Zoth smiled and explained, "Indeed. But have you ever considered that, since they have never come into contact with the Titans or the Old Gods, their energy forms are infinitely varied and diverse? Why do some side with the Titans, while others align with the Old Gods? How do you distinguish them?"
Yun's curiosity was completely aroused, and he eagerly asked, "Yes, what is going on?"
N'Zoth replied calmly, "In fact, although energy forms are numerous, they all share the same fundamental principles. There are only our types, and all energy attributes have corresponding powerful individuals. Even without any external guidance, they will naturally classify according to their energy attributes. Ultimately, all this energy will converge on the side of the corresponding powerful individual."
"It's really strange! According to common sense, the planet of the Dark Demon God should also be able to reach the level of awakening the star soul, right? Can't you just let these Dark Demon Gods go to find it?" Yun said suspiciously.
"Of course we did!" N'Zoth replied grumpily. "That's why the fierce battle between us and the Titans occurred! And when we were clearly at a disadvantage, we destroyed the Star Soul without hesitation and would never let the other side obtain it!"
Yun nodded thoughtfully, "Well, that does make sense."
N'Zoth changed the subject, "It's precisely because of this that no new Old Gods or Titans have been born for a long time, but this sudden appearance of an Old God makes people feel very strange."
Yun's heart skipped a beat, and he asked with a guilty conscience, "Oh? So if a Titan appeared on the other side, would we notice it?"
N'Zoth rolled his eyes at him. "Of course, I have no way of knowing that. However, newly born Titans are very weak. If we discover them, we will definitely find a way to kill them immediately. So we need to understand the overall situation and prepare in advance for any planets whose souls are about to awaken."
"Oh, I see. Then does Titan have the ability to know about the newly born ancient gods here?" Yun asked thoughtfully.
N'Zoth shook his head and replied, "I'm not entirely sure about that. After all, the powers of the Titans differ from ours. However, from what I understand, these newly born Old Gods, who we completely don't understand, are usually extremely conceited and believe themselves to be at their most powerful. However, once discovered by the Titans, they will surely slay them without hesitation. Therefore, we are all desperately competing to see who can be the first to discover these newborn Old Gods."
Yun suddenly understood. It turned out that the Ancient Gods and Titans grew in essentially the same way, differing only in the properties of the energy they contained. Currently, the two sides were in a delicate state of equilibrium, one that could be upset by any new Ancient God or Titan. Therefore, each side was doing its utmost to prevent the other from generating new power.
"So, the purpose of you looking for me is that you want me to help look for it?" Yun asked directly.
N'Zoth nodded and explained, "That's right. Your experience is so special that I was afraid that it was really you who became the Old God. Since it's not you, maybe you will have the opportunity to meet this new Old God." N'Zoth said.
"I'll try my best. I don't know much about this either. If I do encounter one, I'll try to notify you. It's up to you how you persuade them." Yun hesitated for a moment, then finally agreed. He wasn't too definitive, though. After all, this incident could very well be directed at him, so he felt the likelihood of encountering one was high. However, Yun also knew that even if he did encounter one, he wouldn't know how to persuade them, so it would be best to leave the task to N'Zoth and the others.
"Okay, I'll quickly check to see if there are any clues." After saying this, Enzos seemed to have suddenly disappeared without making any sound.
"Sir? Sir? What's wrong with you?" Ishka, who was standing by, noticed Yun's abnormality and quickly reached out to shake him.
"What's wrong with me?" Yun looked at Ishka blankly, completely unaware of what had just happened.
"My lord, you suddenly froze and scared me." Ishka said with lingering fear.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking about something. Don't tell anyone that I have mastered the power of the Titan." Yun said solemnly. He spoke very quickly, as if he was afraid of being heard by others.
Ishka and the others looked at each other, and saw shock in each other's eyes, but they did not ask any more questions. Instead, they answered without hesitation: "Understood."
Yun breathed a sigh of relief, but his brow remained furrowed. He knew full well that if word of this matter got out, it would likely cause a huge uproar. After all, the power of the Titans was no ordinary force; it represented strength and majesty.
However, Yun was even more troubled by the question of what this Firstborn was up to. Why did he want to pass on the power of the Titans to him? Yun had originally been a member of the Ancient Gods, but now he possessed the power of the Titans, leaving him deeply perplexed.
Could it be that the Firstborn believed that the Ancient Gods were no longer able to compete with the Titans, and therefore allowed Yun to continue lurking among them? However, Yun and the Titans had long since fallen out, so this possibility was almost negligible.
"Are you worried about something?" Xin Di Yalai keenly noticed Yun's abnormality and asked with concern.
Yun hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and said slowly: "I...ah, I'm a little confused."
"Confused? Confused about what?" Xin Di Yalai asked, her eyes fixed on Yun, as if she wanted to see his inner thoughts through his eyes.
Yun was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "I don't know what I should do now, or should I say...should I say..." He was suddenly speechless, not knowing how to express his feelings.
"What should I do?" Xin Diyalai looked at Yun with confusion, as if he had heard an extremely stupid question. "You are now one of the strongest people in the universe! Do you still need to worry about this? Just do whatever you want!"
Xindi Yalai's tone was filled with envy. She couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if she could possess such powerful strength. Being the strongest in the universe meant being able to do whatever she wanted without any restraints or restrictions.
However, Yun seemed very depressed. He sighed and said, "But I... no one wants me now?"
Yun's words surprised Xin Diyalai. She stared at Yun with wide eyes in disbelief. "The strongest being in the universe, yet no one wants him?" This was simply unbelievable.
Yun continued to explain, "I've fallen out with the Titans. If the Old Gods knew I possessed their power, their attitude toward me wouldn't be any better. Furthermore, I just destroyed the Burning Legion's lair and killed a general under Sargeras. The Burning Legion must be filled with hatred for me. As for the Holy Light... I can't imagine how they'll treat me. They might even Lightforge me!"
"Why do you have to rely on others?" Xin Di Yalai stared at Yun and said earnestly, "Only the weak crave support. However, you are now one of the most powerful beings, and your potential for development far exceeds theirs. So, why should you care about their opinions?"
She paused, then continued, "Just like Sargeras, as the most powerful Titan, he has reached the pinnacle. Everything he does is in accordance with his heart, without caring about right or wrong. Why is this so? The reason is simple, simply because he is extremely powerful."
Aaron, standing by, echoed, "That's right! What are you afraid of? You are incredibly powerful, and your men are even more formidable. You are fully capable of emulating Sargeras and creating your own Burning Legion!"
Although Tal Rasha had some reservations about Aaron's opinion, she nodded in agreement. "Although I don't completely agree with their views, I also think that you don't need to consider other people's feelings anymore."
Finally, Medivh interjected, "I have no way of knowing the true extent of your power. But I do know that my mother was not one to obey orders."
"But...but I don't know what to do?" Yun said nervously.
"What? If you are afraid that the ancient gods will deal with you, then defeat them. If you are afraid that the Titans will attack you, then attack first and defeat them until they surrender. There are so many things to do." Xin Di Yalai said.
"This..." Yun thought to himself and couldn't help but have some ideas. Flor was not as strong as himself back then. He was not afraid in the face of so many powerful enemies. The Titans and the Ancient Gods besieged him together, and even killed a Titan. Although Flor was sealed in the end, he has come out now, and these Titans and the Ancient Gods don't know about it yet. What is there to be afraid of?
