Chapter 1258: The Great Emperor's Failure
In Lin Shen's eyes, the universe, all the void lines also turned red.
"The First Immortal has achieved the Great Emperor level!" Lin Shen immediately realized what had happened. The void lines had all turned the color of the First Immortal, indicating that the First Immortal could now control all the Ghost God Laws, which should be the Great Emperor level.
"You've finally broken through to the Great Emperor level." While others were terrified and avoided him, the God-Creation Clan Chief walked towards the First Immortal and said, looking at him as if he were one with the universe.
He did not hold a fishing rod in his hand, but the rod hovered in the depths of space, with its line binding Lin Shen and Wei Wufu, who struggled but could not break free.
The First Immortal's eyes turned to the God-Creation Clan Chief, as if there were thousands of star clusters rotating within, and a small red universe seemed to exist inside them as well.
"The First One... you're actually still alive..." The First Immortal recognized this God-Creation Clan Chief, the small universe in his eyes changing continuously, as if calculating something.
Lin Shen could clearly see, as the First Immortal's gaze fell on the God-Creation Clan Chief, the void lines seemed to reverse time, continuously flowing some data stream-like fluorescence towards the First Immortal.
Without waiting for the God-Creation Clan Chief to respond, the First Immortal spoke to himself: "So that's it, you faked your death and fled, and even took over the God-making Race I founded."
The God-Creation Clan Chief smiled and said: "Since you've returned, it would be a great tale for you and me to join forces and overthrow the rule of the Celestial Court."
The First Immortal, like a robot, showed no expression on his face, and his voice lacked any emotional tone: "It's not the Celestial Court I want to overthrow, but to erase the beings that threaten the cosmic order. Now, you are the greatest threat to the universe, the first one I want to erase is you."
"How am I a threat to this universe, don't forget without me, your God-making Race would have long perished." The God-Creation Clan Chief smiled and said.
"The God-making Race should have been destroyed, keeping it only causes more harm to the universe." The First Immortal said in a flat and straightforward tone as if reading textbook theoretical knowledge: "I am already perfect, without any flaws. Humans, such flawed beings, already have no necessity to exist, and to prevent the universe from being destroyed by humans, humans must also be completely erased."
"Don't forget, you are human too." The God-Creation Clan Chief said.
"No, I am a flawless human, an immortal. Humanity inherently represents greed and destruction. Even if you are the best experimental specimen among the new humans with the fewest flaws, you are still just a human. Being human means having flaws, which is unavoidable, thus there are immortals. Now that immortals have succeeded, the failed humans should exit the stage of history." The First Immortal said.
Lin Shen immediately understood the true identity of the God-Creation Clan Chief. He was among the first new humans revived by the Great Emperor Smart Brain, probably the most perfect new human that the Great Emperor Smart Brain could create at that time.
But no matter how perfect a new human is, there are always flaws, so the Great Emperor Smart Brain created immortals using the human smart brain as a formulation.
Although new humans had flaws and did not reach the ideal level of perfection, the Great Emperor Smart Brain did not erase them but allowed them to prosper in the universe.
However, the First Immortal, originally wanting to overthrow the rule of the Great Emperor Smart Brain, ended up more extreme than the Great Emperor Smart Brain after his mind evolved to the Great Emperor level, wanting to directly erase all of humanity.
Lin Shen could only say, this was the boy who fought the dragon eventually becoming a more ruthless Evil Dragon.
Of course, the First Immortal had his logic, in his logic, he was right.
In fact, other than humans, this logic was correct for most beings, as humans' greed for cosmic resources far exceeded any known species.
Using the Evil Dragon to metaphorically describe human greed is actually incorrect. It should be, look at how the dragon is greedy like a human, more aptly.
"It sounds very reasonable, but even if you become the Great Emperor, you can't kill me." The God-Creation Clan Chief said.
"I am all-knowing and all-powerful, with everything in the universe in my control. There is no one in this universe I can't kill." The First Immortal said, eyes fixed on the Star Divine Official still fighting in the starry sky.
In just an instant, those Star Divine Officials still fighting, their bodies turned to ashes, becoming void, leaving nothing behind.
Everyone was shocked, including Lin Shen, because no one could see how those people died, it was as if the First Immortal merely looked at them, and they died.
Lin Shen, however, saw clearly that those people were directly drained by the void lines, their bodies losing all energy, and naturally becoming void.
This is a higher-level Ghost God power, the First Immortal can make all Ghost God power his own, being said to be invincible in the universe is indeed an understatement.
With just a thought, all humans in the universe would be drained of energy and die instantly, no one could escape, as long as they were within the universe, under the Ghost God Laws, connected by the void line, no one could escape.
"Perhaps that red-clothed person without a void line connection could escape..." Lin Shen thought to himself, anyway, he probably could not escape.
"Try killing me." The God-Creation Clan Chief was unconcerned, smiling at the First Immortal.
"Then let's start with you." The First Immortal looked expressionlessly at the God-Creation Clan Chief.
One second... two seconds... three seconds...
As time passed, the God-Creation Clan Chief stood there unchanged.
"How can this be..." The First Immortal's face unexpectedly showed a human-like expression of incomprehension, the red light in his eyes flowing madly, calculating what was happening.
"You don't need to calculate, the foundation for the Great Emperor Smart Brain's control of the universe was those Ghost Gods. With the Ghost Gods gone, what use is your mental power no matter how strong?" The God-Creation Clan Chief with a wave of his hand, the void lines in the sky directly pulled back at the First Immortal's body, suspending him in the void, the First Immortal completely unable to resist.
"Everyone wants to become the Great Emperor, but even as the Great Emperor, you're just a smart brain. No matter how powerful a smart brain is, it needs to connect with hardware to function, now all the hardware is in my hands, no matter how powerful your computation is, you are nothing but a waste." The God-Creation Clan Chief stretched out his hand towards the First Immortal.
Remarkably, the First Immortal's body flew towards the God-Creation Clan Chief, who seized his head.
Countless strange energies flowed on the First Immortal's body as if the strength of heaven and earth were hammering the First Immortal's body.
"Spiritual control will never match physical control. Since you chose to connect fully with the Ghost Gods, abandoning yourself, you can only be at my mercy. So-called Great Emperor, is nothing but a machine. Not even you, even the true Great Emperor Smart Brain, was created by humans, how could it contend with humans." With the God-Creation Clan Chief's words, the First Immortal's body warped and altered under his hand.
