Chapter 550 Envy
"...It's harder to fix than I imagined," he said softly.
After the two left, Xu Si was also a little troubled by his injuries from the laws.
The World Tree's branches trembled slightly, and fluorescent green light surged from all directions, converging around him to form an even denser layer of envelope.
"Don't bother! You should take care of yourself first!" Yi Yi's treatment is similar to Jiao Jiao's, so it won't be of much help to Xu Si's current situation.
In Xu Si's understanding, Sequence Nine is the invocation of the law.
Xu Si's current situation is not affected except that he cannot call upon the power of the laws. Compared to a normal Sequence 8, he can easily kill him instantly.
Unfortunately, he couldn't use the most powerful method in Sequence Nine.
He is now at most a 'pseudo-Sequence Nine'.
I reassured them a little.
Xu Si tried to activate the small world within his body, but the effect was not ideal.
Previously, he had a god-like perspective and could even manipulate it at will.
He is now merely an observer, unable to invoke the power of laws, and this small world has temporarily slipped out of his control.
But, apart from him, no one else could control it.
The state of the small world is more like that 'spot of light' before Xu Si intervened.
After a moment of silence, Xu Si's gaze finally fell on Earth, which was rapidly turning green again.
He could sense that Yi Yi was taking control, and that Earth was awakening.
The dried-up riverbeds are being moistened again, new roots are growing deep in the dead soil, and wild grass is sprouting from the cracks among the city ruins occupied by the eerie, inch by inch seizing the forgotten land.
Perhaps in just a few days, Yi Yi will be able to officially take over this world that is on the verge of death.
And everything he did made everything meaningful again.
"Sequence Nine... Astral Ruler"
He repeated his sequence name in a low voice, never expecting that the first one to be dominated would be his own planet.
How can this not be considered a form of redemption?
Xu Si closed his eyes and once again sank into the small world within his body, woven from star power and laws.
The cracks in the law at the edge are still clearly visible.
Like a shattered sky, if he doesn't find a way to repair it, he might as well go back to sequence 8.
However, how to repair it has become a problem.
This is his first time advancing to Sequence 9, and he is probably the only Sequence 9 on Earth right now. You can't even ask anyone about it.
Is this what they mean by "the higher you climb, the colder it gets"?
He tried to reach out and touch one of the cracks, and a slight tremor ran through him as his fingertips brushed against it.
The repairs were slower than he had anticipated.
"It can't be rushed!" he said softly.
Wanliuchun floated out of the dark building again, but she no longer knew what to say to Xu Si.
No one who has just completed their advancement at Sequence Nine would choose to do this, because that's the key to godhood!
Xu Si didn't care about any of that; he just did what he wanted to do.
This is perhaps what makes humans different from other races.
"Do you know what I admire most about you?" she suddenly asked.
"What?" Xu Si asked calmly, his eyes still closed.
"You always manage to make your path narrower than others, and then forcefully carve a crack in the rock."
The voice trying to persuade Chun to stay carried a hint of sarcasm or wistfulness that was hard to decipher.
Time and again, Xu Si chose neither the path that maximized his interests nor the most reasonable one.
"When others advance to Rank Nine, they want to nip all other competitors in the bud, but the first thing you do after advancing to Rank Nine is to make yourself look like this..."
"Yi Yi is none other than..."
Xu Si didn't even open his eyes; he was too lazy to argue with Wan Liuchun.
Wanliuchun was taken aback. If it were any other race, how would they treat the race that had come to them as dependent?
They will only exploit to the fullest extent, maximizing their value to strengthen themselves.
They would never sacrifice their own life force to save an impossible possibility like Xu Si did.
Perhaps it is because of such rich emotions that the human race possesses infinite possibilities far exceeding those of other races.
Since the apocalypse, she has witnessed too many separations and deaths among the human race.
She both disdained and was obsessed with this kind of feeling.
"So stupid it's enviable."
Wanliuchun went back into the dark building.
She envied that if it were her, Xu Si would still be so devoted.
Over the next few days, Xu Si tried various methods to repair the damage to his laws, but to no avail.
However, the energy infusion into each one is increasing.
"Yi-yi, stop struggling." He said softly, as if he could sense the hesitation of the fluorescent green light gathering and dissipating around him.
The World Tree's branches trembled slightly, like a child whose secrets had been exposed. Some of the gathered light dispersed, but a thin halo still formed around him, refusing to completely disappear.
"What else can I do?" A crisp, slightly childish voice rang in Xu Si's mind.
Xu Si was stunned. This was the first time he had received a complete voice from the World Tree. It was no longer a vague emotional perception, but clear words with tone and breath.
"You've become fully aware of the world?" His voice held a hint of unexpected surprise.
"Well, but I haven't fully mastered this little world yet!" Yi Yi's voice was a little clumsy, but Xu Si had already gotten used to it.
"No need to rush," Xu Si said.
"My injuries are troublesome, but they're only a matter of time before they heal! The important thing is you. Is it appropriate for you to become the world's consciousness now?" Xu Si asked worriedly.
He knew that once Yi Yi became part of the consciousness of this world, her confusion would only be greater than his own.
In the end, Xu Si had somewhat forced the seedlings to grow too fast.
He feared that such rapid growth might have a negative impact on Yi Yi.
"It's okay, I'm still getting used to it!" Yi Yi said.
Perhaps it was the natural advantage of the Elf race that made becoming the World Tree a small burden for Yi Yi; in fact, it was a great benefit to her.
Since she is still adapting, it means that while there is a negative impact on her, it is not significant.
At least her current size is within her tolerance.
This is a good thing for Yi Yi, and also a good thing for Xu Si.
At least it puts his mind at ease.
He suddenly thought of something.
"all."
"Um?"
"Can you sense the damage to my laws?"
"...Yes." Yi Yi's voice lowered, tinged with self-reproach.
Yi-yi's current world consciousness is considered semi-mature, while the world within him is a fragmented little world.
That's why Yi Yi was able to sense the damage to the laws within his body.
If we want to repair the damage to the laws, should we start with the smaller worlds?
Xu Si felt as if his Ren and Du meridians had been opened up in an instant.
Is this reasonable?
That makes sense.
