Chapter 100 Loopholes in World Rules
Gu Yun was shocked when he heard Zuo Yi tell the secret that he was a time traveler, and even knew clearly about his family situation before time travel.

After traveling into this world, he never mentioned the secret buried deep in his heart to anyone.

Especially after understanding the chaotic situation in this world where demons are raging.

The identity of the time traveler may very well be mistaken by the Imperial Cultivation Church as the infiltration and invasion of an evil god. After all, the Thousand Faces force under the God of Trickery once designed a conspiracy to turn souls into humans in the Imperial Cultivation Kingdom, in an attempt to infiltrate The upper echelon of humanity.

For safety reasons, even his father did not know this secret.

Looking at the smiling Zuo Yi, Gu Yun suddenly felt confused as if he had fallen into a whirlpool of mist.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement and asked:

"High Priest, did you summon me to this world?"

"It has nothing to do with me, it has something to do with the person above."

As he spoke, Zuo Yi pointed at the top of his head.

Gu Yun raised his head and glanced at the lush branches and leaves of the bloody ancient tree. After being stunned for a moment, he understood what Zuo Yi wanted to express.

After entering the mysterious ruins, he saw the terrifying god body that existed in the textbook introduction.

Facing the confused Gu Yun, Zuo Yi began to explain the reason.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Yun's eyes gradually became firm, he looked at Zuo Yi and nodded solemnly:

"It was Emperor Xiu Shen who summoned me to this world. What was his purpose in summoning me?"

So there is only one possibility. Thinking of this, Gu Yun asked in a deep voice:
"Emperor Xiu Shen?"

It turns out that he is just a reincarnation of a ray of consciousness, and the vague memories of time travel are just false residues.

The process of cutting off consciousness is very long, as long as 200 years.

"Although you are the conscious clone of Emperor Xiu Shen, He will not deprive you of your freedom or take back your consciousness. He clearly told me that I will give you freedom. From now on, you will become the eighth member of mankind as a subordinate god. "Legion Commander."

As he said that, he raised his head and looked at Gu Yun:
"This ray of consciousness is you. Although you have entered the reincarnation system, the consciousness of the Emperor Xiu Shen has always been paying attention to your growth. He also conveyed this news to me through the empty shell of the God of Fear in the North, letting me know I have lost your existence, and the vague memory images before your time travel do not belong to you, but to the Emperor Xiu Shen.”

The beginning of the matter can be traced back to more than 250 years ago. At that time, the Emperor Xiu Shen, who was guarding the high wall in the north for the continuation of human civilization, suddenly had a whim in the endless battle with the Kuroshio and thought if he could cut off a ray of his own consciousness. Then create another clone.

Now this sentence has become more true in Gu Yun's eyes.

"From now on, as the Lord of Slaughter, you will start your own legendary story."

After merging consciousness with the clone, he returns to human society.

As his father said, many times he sees darkness because he wants to see darkness. After decades of fighting on the outer seas, he has already accepted that he will eventually die fighting for the human empire.

As for whether he is true or false, it is actually not important anymore.

"Because the real time traveler is not you, but the Emperor Xiu Shen. You are his consciousness clone, but you only vaguely retain part of his memory."

The person who can be called "the one above" by the high priest is definitely not the commander of the Seven Legions.

Three hours later, Gu Yun followed High Priest Zuo Yi through the teleportation array to the snowy northern border.

"That's right, it's the Emperor Cultivator." Zuo Yi nodded.

And what this fearful divine body is connected to is the Imperial Cultivator who guards the future of the human race outside the high wall.

"The soul belongs to Emperor Xiu. Now it seems that this sentence is perfect for me. After all, my consciousness and soul were created by Emperor Xiu God. He gave me a new life. I am willing to fight for him as a subordinate god. I fight for the future of humanity.”

"So my ability to kill and become stronger also comes from the Emperor Cultivator?"

Hearing these words, Gu Yun was completely confused.

Here, he felt a familiar atmosphere.

At that time, he thought that since the ending would not change, why should he care too much about the twists and turns of the process.

Just now we were discussing time travellers, but why did the scene suddenly change and he became a ray of consciousness of the Emperor Cultivator.

The soul belongs to the Imperial Cultivator, this is what the frontline soldiers often say.

When he said these words, Zuo Yi's mechanical eyes had an imperceptible tremor.

In fact, the status of the high priest is higher than that of the legion commander. The legion commanders need to obey the tasks and dispatch of the high priest. Although they have the power to veto independently, the high priest is undoubtedly the leader of the human race on the surface.

But just when Emperor Xiu Shen thought the plan was about to succeed, an accident happened.

Looking at Gu Yun with a complicated expression, he reached out and patted Gu Yun on the shoulder:

The implication is that every warrior who dies in battle will return his soul to the Emperor Cultivator God after his soul leaves the body. Under the guidance of the Emperor Cultivator God, he will complete reincarnation and be born in a new body in the territory of the human empire.

The consciousness that was cut out was pulled by the mysterious power, automatically put into the reincarnation rule system, and was born in a way that had never been imagined.

"Yes, apart from you, the source of the divine power of the seven legion commanders is also the Emperor Cultivator. From the moment you were born, you were destined to be the legion commander of the eighth human legion."

"You misunderstood what I meant. No one summoned you to a different world. Your appearance was an accident. To be more precise, you are just the reincarnation of a ray of consciousness separated by the emperor cultivator's self-consciousness, so you are Part of the power of Emperor Xiu Shen."

Being able to become the Lord of Slaughter now undoubtedly opens up a new future path for him and changes the established ending of death in battle.

Seeing that Gu Yun quickly came out of the truth, Zuo Yi patted Gu Yun's shoulder with relief:

After finally learning the truth, Gu Yun felt complicated.

"what?!"

……

This kind of breath gave him a very friendly feeling, which could be described by the word "homecoming".

"Accept the Imperial Cultivation Pardon."

Arriving in front of the body of the God of Fear, Gu Yun knelt down on one knee respectfully and placed his hand on the surface of the huge body of the God of Fear.

Like water and milk blending together, his consciousness was smoothly connected to the existence in the dark.

At this moment, he heard a call that seemed to come from the beginning of Chaos:
"From today on, I grant you the name of the Lord of Slaughter, and fight to expand the territory for our human race."

The moment when his consciousness was completely connected to the Emperor Cultivation God, he saw the gray foggy space unfolding in front of his eyes. He also saw the Emperor Cultivation God's natal soul suspended in the foggy space, as well as the seven suspended under the black token in the sky, representing respectively The divine light balls of the seven legion commanders.

At this time the black token trembled.

He felt as if something was being pulled out of his body, and saw wisps of light emerging from his body, eventually turning into the eighth godhead light ball condensed under the black token. The energy belt extending from the light ball was in contact with the Emperor Xiu Shen The natal soul body is connected.

A lot of information comes to mind:
[Sequence 8: Lord of Slaughter (Subordinate God)]:
Divine power source: The divine power source can be obtained from the body of the killed target to control the power of killing and growth.

Status: False God (establish a connection with the Tongshen, and can offer killing power to the Tongshen through the connection, which will automatically be converted into the corresponding divine power of the Tongshen)
Provides unifying power: None (ratio not set)

Has followers: none.

……

The information in his mind proved that from this moment on, he officially became the eighth subordinate god of the Imperial God.

In the future, the Eighth Legion will be formed for mankind in the name of the Lord of Slaughter.

"The emperor is above the cultivator, and I have no obligation to do so."

After his consciousness left the mist space and returned to his body, Gu Yun bowed respectfully forward. Standing up, he followed Zuo Yi and walked outside the ruins.

He knew that from this moment on, the word "Gu Yun" would gradually fade away from him and be completely buried as history progressed.

Just like the seven legion commanders, the world does not know their real names, but they are called by the names of gods such as the Lord of War, the Lord of Divine Punishment, and the Lord of Death.

This is exactly the path he will take in the future.

……

Beyond the high wall of the North.

In the surging black tide, Ji Xiu's majestic divine body stood.

As he breathed, he exhaled blood-colored mist from his nose, turning into waves that collided and squeezed with the black tide.

I saw monsters constantly condensing from the surging black tide, baring their teeth and claws, and rushing towards them without fear of death, trying to break through the cracks in the high wall that had been torn apart by his guard, allowing the black tide to break through the blockade and come to the world.

Ji Xiu punched at this moment.

The fearful flames surrounding the body surface surged toward both fists, and as the fists were swung out, they instantly condensed into fist shadows.

Suddenly, all the monsters emerged from the black tide of bloody fist shadows and tore them into pieces.

After months of long confrontations, the black tide gradually subsided, and a more terrifying outbreak was brewing.

Ji Xiu retreated at this moment and stood in front of the crack in the high wall again. His stalwart body blocked the crack, and he looked directly at the surging black tide with his emotionless scarlet eyes, waiting for the next round of confrontation with the black tide. .

When the fearful flames retracted from his body, he began to extract the power of the subordinate empty shell in the mysterious ruins to strengthen the body of fear.

It has been guarding the high wall for more than 200 years.

The endless killings and battles did not make him feel numb. As the fear body continued to grow, his consciousness could barely penetrate the high wall to perceive the outside world.

Although the distance is not very far, the future is promising.

In recent years, he has mainly communicated with Zuo Yi through the empty shell of his subordinate god.

The only thing that surprised him was the birth of Gu Yun, and he also understood how to interpret the ability of "reincarnation of consciousness".

The information in the mind's introduction to this ability is to cut off self-awareness, separate consciousness, and condense new consciousness into the world's reincarnation system to restart (after the reincarnation of consciousness, most of the memories will be washed away. After contact with the natal soul body, memories can be instilled. way to regain memory).

It took more than a hundred years for him to successfully cut off his consciousness. He thought he could return to human society as a clone.

But after his consciousness was cut off, he was sucked into the world's reincarnation system.

During this process, he did not lose his perception of this ray of consciousness, but found that this ray of consciousness was getting farther and farther away from him.

Finally, he saw Gu Yun's birth.

In fact, the moment Gu Yun broke away from the reincarnation system and was born, he had already regained control.

If he wanted to, he could use Gu Yun's body to walk around the world.

But he didn't do that because he found that there seemed to be some problems with his consciousness.

After being reshaped by the world's reincarnation system, his originally pure consciousness had a bright color. This made him feel very confused and didn't know what happened.

It wasn't until Gu Yun discovered that his time traveler welfare was "killing growth" that he realized what was wrong.

Gu Yun actually activated the divine power that only era challengers possess.

This seemed incredible to him.

Every era challenger was an ordinary person before coming to this world, but after arriving, they will have a plug-in ability that is comparable to the top original gods.

Just like his parents.

Before the time traveled, his parents were ordinary people, with a little money at most.

But after traveling through time, they each possessed four divine powers: the Godhead of Fear, the Godhead of Fury, the Godhead of Darkness, and the Godhead of Conspiracy.

It can be seen that every time you travel, there are indeed benefits for the traveler.

But what Ji Xiu never thought was that after his consciousness was cut and separated, he could also have the benefits of a time traveler only available to Epoch Challengers, that is, ability plug-ins.

This made him change his mind.

He originally wanted to gain freedom outside the high wall by cutting off consciousness, but after seeing the welfare of time travellers, he felt that the method of cutting off consciousness might be used to solve the shortcomings of the legion model.

The problem with Legion mode is the expansion.

The legion with the belief in gods as its core cannot be too far away from the legion commander, and cannot disperse across sea areas to fight.

Except for the divinely chosen warriors who receive the Force from the gods, warriors who are far away from the gods of faith will not be able to receive the power of faith given by the gods of faith.

This resulted in the Human Race having only seven fronts, and its pace of expansion was locked at this upper limit.

As for forming a new legion, he discussed this idea with Zuo Yi and concluded that there was no possibility for the human race to form an eighth legion.

Without the blessing of the power of faith, and only relying on the power given by civilization and technology, the legion formed by ordinary people simply cannot compete with the aliens.

How to solve this problem? Zuo Yi's decision is to continue to dig deeper into civilization technology. As long as the development of civilization technology goes smoothly enough, in the future, human warriors will surely be given a powerful armed force comparable to the power of faith.

But this requires long years of accumulation and huge resources invested in research and development.

The birth of Gu Yun allowed Ji Xiu to see a new path, which was the possibility of expanding the legion.

Gu Yun, who possesses the godhood of the Era Challenger, can definitely become the commander of the Eighth Legion and open up another maritime front for mankind.

As he watched Gu Yun grow up, he became increasingly certain of the feasibility of this idea.

So he contacted Zuo Yi through the empty shell of the God of Fear in the ruins and expressed his thoughts.

This is also the reason why Zuo Yi found Gu Yun when he had experienced and grown up enough to be independent, hoping that he could serve as the commander of the Eighth Army.

At this time, Ji Xiu began to think about a problem.

Can this model be replicated?

If each cut-out consciousness can pass the baptism of the reincarnation system and become a top godhead holder like the Era Challenger, it means that he can create new legion commanders in batches.

The eighth-ranked Killing Legion is just the beginning. In the future, there will be the 8th Legion, the 9th Legion, and even more human army commanders who will step onto the stage of history to help the human race in its external resource plundering war.

The only problem with this idea is that each cutting of consciousness would take a long time.

It took him more than 200 years to cut off Gu Yun's consciousness. During the cutting process, he had to wait for the damaged consciousness to repair itself before continuing to cut.

In other words, he can create a human army commander every 200 years.

In his opinion, this is simply a bug in the world's rules, and he uses loopholes in the rules to frantically use matryoshka dolls to gain "resources."

The emergence of Gu Yun has proved that the Challenger model of Creation Era is completely feasible.

Mass production of Era Challengers may be a new path to rise that even Anno predecessors could not even imagine.

The future is expected!
