save the bachelors

Chapter 5174-5177 [Parallelism Demon]

There are nine guardians of the universe, who reside in the temple year-round, sitting on their thrones.

They were not tall, but had large heads and blue skin. They wore long red robes, several meters long, that hung down from their thrones, making them appear very majestic and solemn.

Each guardian is immortal and possesses power comparable to that of a god.

However, their strength should not be overestimated.

According to Kryptonian records, the Guardians of the Universe led the Green Lantern Corps in battle against Darkseid's army. Ultimately, they were overwhelmed by Darkseid's power and had no choice but to acknowledge his tyrannical rule.

Therefore, the power of the guardians of the universe is even less than that of the native gods of Earth, such as Zeus, Ares, and Artemis.

Compared to Xiang Nan, who is at the multiverse level, it is far inferior.

Therefore, when Xiang Nan possessed a cosmic guardian and absorbed the knowledge and secrets stored in his mind, because his strength far exceeded that of the cosmic guardian and he was proficient in magic, immortal arts and superpowers, the cosmic guardian was completely unaware of his existence and was easily possessed by him.

Xiang Nan also discovered all the knowledge and secrets stored in the mind of the universe guardian.

……

A year later, Xiang Nan had mastered the methods for making the Central Energy Battery, the Lamp Ring and Lantern, the Machine Hunter, and the secrets of the Parallax Demon's Imprisonment Land.

So he quietly left Oa and headed to the planet Wright, the prison of the Parallax Demon.

The Guardians of the Universe have divided the universe into 3,600 sectors, each guarded by a Green Lantern.

Because the universe is boundless, each star sector is also ridiculously large. Even on a clear night, the stars that Earthlings see are less than one-thousandth the size of their own star sector.

This demonstrates the vastness of the universe and the weight of Green Lantern's responsibilities.

However, although the Guardians of the Universe claim to maintain order and peace in the universe, they are basically just bragging.

When Krypton began its interstellar colonization, the Guardians of the Universe chose to back down; when Darkseid sent people to conquer 100,000 planets, the Guardians of the Universe remained silent; when the machine hunters slaughtered Sector 666, they also chose to turn a blind eye...

Furthermore, they will censor these matters, forbidding anyone from mentioning them.

In short, they are only bullies within their own ranks, daring to act tough only in areas they can effectively manage. Once they can't win a fight, they choose to retreat, delete related information, and pretend that everything is still under control.

This kind of behavior is just like India, which calls itself a major power and a strong country on Earth, and keeps winning until it gets tired of winning.

Even if they lose, they refuse to admit it, and the whole country follows suit, pretending to be blind. They adhere to the principle that "as long as I don't admit it, the incident never happened."

The planet Wright is located in a sector that was deleted by the Guardians of the Universe.

The reason this sector was deleted is that the Guardians of the Universe sealed the Parallax Demon here.

Tens of thousands of years ago, the Green Lantern Corps was defeated by the Kryptonian colony and the Darkseid army, which made the Guardians of the Universe realize the limitations of the Green Lantern Corps' strength.

Therefore, one of the guardians of the universe proposed to draw upon the yellow light that represents fear to strengthen the legion, because the yellow light representing fear is more powerful than the green light that represents will (courage).

However, his proposal was rejected by the other guardians of the universe. They believed that no one could control the yellow light that represented fear. Using it rashly would most likely harm oneself before harming others.

But the guardian of the universe ignored the warnings and trespassed into the forbidden chamber where the light of fear was kept. As a result, he was truly corrupted by fear and eventually fell into becoming a parallax demon.

Parallax was then sealed away on the planet Wright in the Lost Sector. It was an extremely remote place, rarely visited by anyone. The Guardians of the Universe hoped that Parallax would simply rot there forever. However, they didn't expect that although sealed away, Parallax would continue to absorb the terrifying emotions of beings in the universe and gradually grow stronger.

In the movie "Green Lantern," it eventually breaks free from its seal, reappears in the world, and subsequently devours many planets...

……

Xiang Nan's trip to Planet Wright was aimed at bringing the Light of Fear under his control.

On one hand, the yellow light representing fear is more powerful than the green light representing will; on the other hand, the Green Lantern Corps has a limited number of green lantern rings, totaling 3,600, which are distributed among 3,600 Green Lanterns.

These Green Lanterns all belong to the Green Lantern Corps and are all under the control of the Guardians of the Universe.

Therefore, the Green Lantern Ring is not easy to obtain, and forcibly taking it is useless. To become a Green Lantern, one must gain the ring's approval; otherwise, even if obtained, it will not be effective.

Even if you were to become a Green Lantern, you would still be under the control of the Guardians of the Universe and have to abide by the discipline of the Green Lantern Corps.
For example, unconditional obedience to the Guardians of the Universe; not using Green Lantern Corps equipment, resources, and status for personal gain; respect for life, and not prioritizing the use of violence unless absolutely necessary...

Compared to that, being a "Yellow Lantern" is naturally much freer, free from the control of the universe's guardians and the constraints of those rules.

Therefore, Xiang Nan then went to Wright Star.

It was a desolate planet, with only black rocks on it and no air, water, or plants or animals.

Xiang Nan then used the Earth Escape Technique to escape directly to the depths of the earth.

Deep underground, in a cave, a writhing yellow light was sealed within a green wall.

Xiang Nan stepped forward and looked more closely. He saw a faint human figure within the yellow light—the very shape of the Guardian of the Universe. A large head, a short body, a long robe…

Upon noticing Xiang Nan's arrival, the man opened his eyes and stared intently at Xiang Nan.

However, unlike the Guardians of the Universe, whose eyes are white, his eyes are yellow.

After being targeted, a feeling of fear suddenly welled up in Xiang Nan's mind. However, this thought was quickly extinguished by Xiang Nan.

As the creator, he had already reached the state of non-birth and non-death, the ultimate Nirvana, and should not have felt any fear.

Parallax Demon is simply an aggregate of fear from across the universe, which is why it evokes thoughts of fear in him.

I have to say, he's quite strong.

Unfortunately, he was still no match for Xiang Nan.

“You are special; you have no fear in your heart.” At this moment, the Parallax Demon spoke.

He is the sum of all the fears of all living beings in the universe, feeding on the fears of all living beings.

Therefore, once people show fear, he can seize the opportunity to amplify their emotions, causing them to suffer a mental breakdown while simultaneously draining their souls.

However, Xiang Nan felt no fear, so he couldn't find an opportunity to attack.

“Of course, that’s why I dared to come here,” Xiang Nan said, then punched the green wall, releasing the sealed Parallax Demon.
