Chapter 526: Chapter 526: The Birth of Dark Titan Du Longer
“`
Well, they had fled, long legs on their body.
He was not worried that the Guardians would run to the Broken Floating Lands, for they didn’t have the coordinates there; only they did, to be precise, only Lin Xiao did.
He then summoned eight Twisted Spirits of Level 80, just like himself, to clear all the monsters inside the Tower of the Guardian.
After clearing them out, not only did he obtain a large number of Ancient God’s Minion Marks, there was also a large team dungeon within the Tower of the Guardian. He tried to enter the dungeon alone, and inside was a Guardian Tower filled with undead, minions of the ancient gods, and corrupted mages, and if he kept fighting to the end, he might even encounter the illusion of a Guardian.
Unfortunately, he never saw the true form of the Guardian; even the native residents of Duronger had hardly seen it.
The so-called marks of the minions of the ancient gods are unique to this world, similar to the Demon Marks, though their drop rate was much lower than that of Demon Marks, and Lin Xiao had not accumulated many during his ti here.
But the quality was high, he had five leader-level Ancient God’s Minion Marks, and several dozen from the leaders; he planned to entrust Wu Zhonglin to bring them to his girlfriend later.
At the sa ti, before leaving, he exchanges for a few orange and top-tier equipnts from the various leaders, packing them up to take along.
It was foreseeable that after everyone else left, he might stay in this world for who knows how many years. Who knows when he would be able to resolve the ancient gods and the Fallen Titan, or he might perish, so it was better to prepare for the future and make his girlfriend stronger, which would give him peace of mind.
Half a year later, Duronger Fortress began to relocate. A large number of Grand Magicians who had gathered at the Tower of the Guardians within Duronger Fortress joined forces to build a Teleportation Array, sending people directly from Duronger Fortress to the Tower of the Guardian in Mahadun, teleporting the survivors over, and then activating the Transboundary Transmission Array at the bottom of the Tower of the Guardian to head to Gurusajaha near the Broken Floating Land.
The coordinates were anchored to the Dragon Scales of the Void Dragon Gurusajaha in his possession, leading to a location near the Void Dragon.
“I hope it hasn’t run off, otherwise…!”
One month later, the feedback that reached him allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief—the Void Dragon Gurusajaha had not left the area where the Broken Floating Lands were located. They appeared right at the southernmost tip of a small desolate Broken Floating Land in Bunal, where the nest of the Void Dragon Gurusajaha was located.
Being able to return was good enough. They had ways to take care of the rest.
The continuous teleportation lasted almost half a year, and finally, all the willing refugees and a massive amount of materials were moved away. The vast Duronger Fortress had beco an empty city.
During this ti, neither the ancient gods nor the Dark Titans interfered with them.
Nor could they interfere anymore.
During the teleportation, Lin Xiao sensed an exceptionally powerful presence, sharing the sa essence as his life but emanating from the material plane. Far away, at the other end of the world, a giant that reached to the heavens was slowly tunneling from the spiritual plane into the material plane. The ancient god Zagulon, which occupied one-third of the planet, seed like a child in front of this colossal figure.
In his Star Soul state, Duronger existed on the soul plane, but once he transford into the Dark Titan, he would appear on the material plane and possess all the Authority granted by the whole world, which would instantly increase his strength by an unknown multiple.
In this state of tamorphosis, Lin Xiao could clearly sense the calling from afar and his soul’s yearning.
The Dark Titan Duronger was calling to its other half, yearning for it. They were two halves of a whole, unable to coexist.
“It’s ti!”
Watching the last batch of refugees leave, Lin Xiao destroyed the Transboundary Transmission Array with a single blow, cutting off the last escape route.
If his plans succeeded, he would beco the new Titan, naturally finding his way ho.
If the plan failed, this incarnation would be devoured by the Dark Titan Duronger, making any further concerns aningless.
By this ti, everyone on the planet who was willing to leave had left, leaving behind only those who chose to wait for death.
Returning to Duronger Fortress, the fortress that once was ho to over a million surviving refugees now had less than twenty thousand remnants. If the minions of the ancient gods attacked now, they surely couldn’t hold out.
But at that mont, the ancient god Zagulon was preoccupied, especially as the Star Soul was on the verge of transforming into the Dark Titan; it had already begun to retract all its power.
Many of the minions drew their power from Zagulon, and It was also able to reclaim these powers.
Returning to the chamber where he once obtained the Titan Sword, the Grand Priest and the Dragon Clan Leader Arlos stood before him. They were the only two leaders of forces unwilling to leave.
Lin Xiao sat quietly in the chamber for a long while, then addressed the two of them:
“You have no way back!”
“Nor will you see the final outco.”
“When I unleash my power, the first thing to be destroyed will be this last bastion of hope!”
The Priest Afilia had dropped below Level 70 by now, her Divine Power dimd, but this did not detract from her beauty. She bowed her head slowly, and said:
“Life is a cycle, the world cos to an end, I too shall et Death!”
She raised her head to look at Lin Xiao. In that mont, her stunning face seed to brighten with a light. With a slight smile, that brief flash of light made his heart flutter. She bowed her head once more and slowly leaned on him.
“`
The stone chamber was silent when his eyelids lifted slightly; on the other side, the Dragon Clan Leader had already transford into an enormous dragon resembling a mountain, with a faint glow emanating from its body.
“Life is a cycle of reincarnation!”
He gently caressed Afilia’s beautiful face, his voice deep and powerful:
“I shall end all, and I shall bring hope!”
The massive dragon’s body slowly disintegrated into nurous light particles that floated up, and the beauty lying on him gradually faded away.
He looked up at the distant other side of the world and took a deep breath…
“Buzz!”
In an instant, everything in the stone chamber collapsed toward him, the space imploding into a black hole.
From high above, everything at the center of the great Duronger Fortress contracted inwards, space pulling together like a tablecloth being drawn to the center, condensing into a point of darkness, an indescribable force of attraction that, in just a fraction of a second, devoured the vast Duronger Fortress into a black hole with imnse attractive power.
The ultimate ability of the great lifeform Enigma, to summon or incarnate an endga celestial body capable of devouring everything—a black hole.
A black hole possesses the ability to devour everything, even able to tear apart and consu a star, and not even light can escape the gravitational pull of a black hole, let alone a planet.
Even though the black hole he summoned now had limited capabilities, it could still devour all matter and energy within its range.
The energy and matter devoured, in turn, would strengthen the power of Enigma, and in this digitized Crystal Wall Universe, his level and attributes would continually increase with continued absorption.
Lin Xiao completely relinquished control of the black hole, allowing it to devour everything without limit. The entire Duronger Fortress promptly disappeared, forming a massive crater, and soon after, its gravity spread outwards, engulfing vast tracts of land and Void Energy, expanding rapidly outward.
Ti vanished in that state of infinite devouring.
Until…
The incarnation as the black hole was about to lose itself when suddenly, a stream of clarity washed over his consciousness, and Lin Xiao snapped back to awareness, imdiately interrupting the black hole.
This was a safety asure he had set for himself before the black hole transformation—after a set amount of ti, his True Body would activate the power of the Creation Magic Cube to awaken him, lest he beca lost.
While in black hole state, he couldn’t sense the passage of ti, and if he couldn’t control the continuous devouring, it would be easy to lose consciousness and truly beco a black hole, continuously absorbing everything.
As the black hole subsided, the terrifying gravitational force vanished instantly, and the vast amount of energy contained in the accretion disk at the edge of the black hole collapsed inward, forming a powerful storm.
Lin Xiao stood motionless in the midst of the Void, but at the mont of the black hole’s disappearance, his spirit was violently struck by an extrely powerful and wrathful will. However, the power of the Creation Magic Cube had not yet faded, and this terrifying shock was as gentle as a breeze to him, yet his mood was still very somber.
For the Dark Titan Duronger was born!
This incarnation as a black hole lasted half a year, creating a black hole that devoured over a thousand kiloters in diater, carving out a hollow a thousand kiloters across on the Ornell Planet, where all matter and energy were completely consud by it.
Such a terrifying absorption naturally drew the attention of the Dark Titan and the Ancient Gods. Had it not been for the Ancient Gods’ desperate efforts to stop it, he might have been forcibly smashed out of the black hole state by a punch from the Dark Titan Duronger long ago.
With Duronger incarnated as the Dark Titan, the Ancient God Zagulon was no match. Had Lin Xiao not greatly strengthened his power by absorbing everything as a black hole, as soone who contained half the origin of Duronger, his strengthening ant weakening the Dark Titan Duronger, maintaining a strange equilibrium.
In other words, Lin Xiao had unexpectedly ford a de facto alliance with the Ancient Gods, a united front against the Dark Titan Duronger.
However, this alliance was extrely fragile. It was not because of discord or power struggles—they’d surely cooperate until the defeat of the Dark Titan Duronger in the face of the threat of death.
The main reason was that Lin Xiao discovered that the Dark Titan Duronger was gaining strength too quickly.
Being the Star Soul Main Body, even having given away half his origin, he remains the main body. The Innate Authority bestowed by the universe’s origin would be granted only to him and not to Lin Xiao, unless he died.
After acquiring the Innate Authority, his power increased at breakneck speeds.
In the short ti it took him to recover from the black hole state, his strength had increased by about one thousandth.
It might not seem much, but one must rember this is a Dark Titan—such an extre and terrifying base strength increasing by a thousandth in less than an hour—how outrageous is that?
Although the initial acquisition of power increases quickly and won’t keep rising without limit, just a doubling in strength would be enough to easily crush both him and the Ancient Gods.
Therefore, having understood the situation, Lin Xiao dove directly into the vast pit his devouring had created at the bottom, reaching the deepest part of the over five-hundred-kiloter crater and incarnated as a black hole once again.
This ti, he set an even longer duration for his devouring—starting at two years as opposed to the half a year previously—and began directly devouring the interior of the planet.
As for an alliance with the Ancient Gods, he had not agreed to it.
