Chapter 1053: Chapter 924: All Assassins!

"Are you here to mock me?"

Upon hearing the approaching footsteps, "Corruption" asked coldly.

Until the end, the battle he had hoped for never truly came, with the support of 149 shards, he indeed stepped into an unprecedented realm, which made him believe that even if he were to cross hands with the senior he respected from the days of yore, he may not necessarily lose.

But it was precisely because of this, he genuinely felt the vast gap between them.

To his senior, defeating him seemed to be just a casual action completed in the process of restoring the Oasis.

Even after stepping into that realm, he still couldn’t discern the distance between himself and his opponent.

Even more puzzles enveloped him.

The era that had been erased, the whispers of the upper world that had disappeared without a trace, the reasons for his senior’s disappearance, and, the "stamp collecting" mentioned by the person before him.

His speculations were ridiculously off; the separation of the God of Life’s consciousness and power was not due to luck or fate—it was all going according to the other party’s plan.

Perhaps, the plague ravaging the Oasis was also within their expectations.

"No, because this is the inevitable outcome."

Lu Xiang shook his head, "The 149 shards, along with your original Spiritual Energy, did indeed qualify you to go to the upper world."

For a believer, this counted as an incredible achievement.

At least in the past, going to the upper world meant a rebirth, allowing them to completely rid themselves of the identity of puppets of fate, and hold the threads of fate firmly in their own hands.

But that was about it.

The strength of Psychic Abilities in the upper world beings also varied, even in the past, "Corruption," before truly mastering the essence of Psychic Abilities and establishing his own path, could at best be considered an intern-level entity.

And what he challenged in the battle was the "Devil" who had his own hands led the upper world toward destruction.

To subdue the "Devil," the entire upper world united, yet still ultimately failed to escape the fate of destruction.

"What does he mean by a new era? What exactly happened in the upper world?"

"Corruption" asked eagerly.

The person before him was one of the few who could answer these questions.

"You will be sent to the United Government’s most heavily guarded prison."

"What did you say?"

"Corruption" could hardly believe his own ears.

The most heavily guarded prison of the United Government?

This title only applied to mortals, for them, any prison built by humans was no different from a backyard.

The most heavily guarded prison did indeed exist once, built by the United Government in collusion with the remnants of the Church to specially detain Consciousness Entities, but not long ago, it was destroyed by someone by hand.

This world had long lost any place that could hold them.

"That prison claims to hold the most evil criminals in the history of the United Government, being sent there is akin to a one-way ticket with no return."

"To be looked down upon, huh."

"Corruption" admitted his defeat was thorough, but that was only in the case where his opponent was Song Lan, an existence even the whispers of the upper world feared, an entity they did not hesitate to describe as the Devil in the scriptures.

Anyone else would have been unable to stop the destiny of the Oasis’s destruction.

"Did you ever consider what kind of people the ’most evil’ criminals in history really are?"

"What are you trying to say?"

"Aren’t you curious about the ’old era’? If you can survive in that place, maybe you can find the answers."

Footsteps were heard outside again.

There seemed to be two people, and they stopped at the door.

"The people responsible for escorting you have arrived."

Lu Xiang opened the door, and the light that shone into the room made "Corruption" squint.

...Robots?

When he could see the true faces of the two humanoid beings, he was stunned for a while.

Not just robots, but models from decades ago, although he had not been out of prison for long, he had gradually learned about the changes in this world.

Robots of such a model had long been discontinued, and today’s artificial intelligence closely resembled humans to the extent that manufacturing companies had to mark a number on their temples and highlight their pupils to differentiate them.

They looked a lot better, but their combat capacity had decreased too much, compared with their opponents from those times, the current artificial intelligence was almost no different from children playing house.

This decades-old model seemed to vaguely evoke a segment of his memory, a corner of that memory revealed itself from the mist, while he still felt as if he were on an island shrouded in fog.

"Corruption" stood up, his ethereal figure unsteady, but the robotic arm of the outdated robot pressed onto his shoulder, with strength as if actually escorting a prisoner.

At the same time, the residual Spiritual Energy seemed to be sealed by some invisible energy suppression field.

But...

How could this be possible.

One of the costs of reaching this step was abandoning his body, at the end of the dark era, each one of them became a Consciousness Entity, even the "Emperor," the remnant of the Church, could not find a way to completely dispose of them and could only temporarily imprison them in the Consciousness Entity prison.

Psychic Energy Suppression Field?

He had indeed heard that the United Government developed similar technology, but the moment he left, he personally tested this technology, and it proved that only half-baked Psychic Users could be affected by the Psychic Energy Suppression Field, such so-called seals were no different from child’s play in front of them.
