Master Changsheng

Chapters 488 & 489: Human Transformation [Countdown to the End: 612 seconds]

Will Bucklin, once known as the First Good Man of the Desert.

Even in An Kai's eyes, he was a stubbornly overly kind person.

A guy who resolutely chose to sacrifice himself to save others for the sake of strangers.

An Kai has said more than once that the other party is stupid.

Will Bucklin would always listen and then chuckle softly, neither refuting nor taking it to heart to change himself.

As a natural-born "wanderer," Will Bucklin has always upheld his principles.

until death.

Ankai considered him the biggest fool in the desert, and if he hadn't died, his status in Ankai's eyes would definitely have surpassed Wayne's by now.

Although he and Will Bucklin were not in a mentor-student relationship, they were also friends.

It was Will-Bucklin's foolish persistence that influenced Ankai in his early years, preventing him from completely falling into the abyss.

To this day, Ankai still vividly remembers the scene of Will Bucklin's death.

Using his own [Wanderer: Seven-Colored Heart] as a guide, he gave up the opportunity to ascend to the sixth tier, choosing instead to save countless lost skeletons.

Finally, standing on the horizon with his sister, he smiled at Ankai and said, "Don't forget me. You said it yourself, being forgotten is the true death."

And Ankai has always kept his promise; he has not forgotten Will Bucklin, nor has he forgotten Sally Bucklin.

Later, when his power increased, Ankai summoned the true spirit of Sally-Bucklin, but when he tried to continue searching for the true spirit of Will-Bucklin, he could not find it no matter what he did.

This has always been a regret in Ankai's heart.

It's a pity that I didn't take a firm stance and stop Will Bucklin back then.

Having come this far, An Kai has long understood what it means to save all living beings.

That's all bullshit!

Nothing is more important than trustworthy friends and family!

Unexpectedly, Will Bucklin, whom they had been searching for for so long, appeared in the True Spirit Space at this moment.

Its robust physique made it seem less like a true spirit and more like a living being.

Even after all these years, Will Bucklin hasn't changed.

Ankai still remembered that when Will Bucklin disappeared, he smiled wistfully and said to him, "Ankai! You're such a jerk..." Then Will Bucklin paused for a moment, waved his hand helplessly, and said, "Never mind, goodbye."

The word "bastard" that I didn't say back then, I said it today right away.

"Can this be considered a change in Will Buklin?"

At this thought, sensing that the [Time Cage] was still breaking, Ankai, without even catching up with Will-Bucklin, shouted at him, "Run! This is the [God of Magic]! Run!"

An Kai was in a good mood to see his old friends during the final battle, especially when he saw that they were in good condition.

That is to say, he hadn't read many classical poems in his previous life, otherwise he would definitely have composed a poem.

"run?"

"【God of Law】?"

Will Bucklin paused in his excited stride.

He then looked at the person opposite An Kai and sensed the guy who was imprisoned in the cage.

Will Bookering immediately recognized what had happened to the other person.

Is it simply because the True Spirit Space is devouring things that the cage that imprisoned it is about to collapse?

"If we don't let the True Spirit Space continue to devour it, judging from Lord Ankai's expression, it seems we can continue to suppress the opponent?"

Will-Bucklin muttered something to himself, then made up his mind and took a light step. In just one step, his figure had already traveled from tens of thousands of meters away to the front of the Time Cage that shrouded the God of Magic.

The invisible "time prison" seems to become tangible in Will-Bucklin.

With a smile in her eyes, she said softly, "You may leave."

This statement seems to be addressed to the [God of Law], and also to the [Time Prison].

As an observer and the manipulator of the [Time Cage], Ankai felt it most clearly.

Will Bocklin's words were spoken to the True Spirit Space that tore apart the "Prison of Time"!

After Will-Bucklin finished speaking, the spiritual energy that had been tearing apart the Time Prison vanished instantly.

An Kai's concerns vanished.

[Time Cage] Regain its indestructible state.

The precarious, collapsing appearance vanished in an instant.

This is all because of one sentence from Will Bucklin!

Ankai remained silent for a long time, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity with Will Bucklin at this moment.

A powerful stranger!

He clearly sensed that when Will-Bucklin said those words, he was like a king of the True Spirit Space, and those True Spirit Space auras were under Will-Bucklin's command.

Seeing Ankai's surprised expression, Will-Bucklin pondered for a moment before speaking reassuringly, "Lord Ankai, it's been a long time!"

The word "Lord Ankai" evoked memories for Ankai.

He and the spirit of Wilbklin suddenly embraced.

The joy of their long-awaited reunion filled their hearts.

Will-Bucklin was once Ankai's teacher.

Ankai was also Will Bucklin's teacher.

"You haven't changed at all over the years, sir! Your appearance hasn't changed a bit!"

"No wonder there's no trace of you in the True Spirit Space; your lifespan is probably longer than that of the gods."

After embracing and parting, Will-Bucklin stood there and uttered a word tinged with envy.

It was also the first living being to raise concerns about Ankai's lifespan.

An Kai was filled with doubt and didn't know where to begin.

Will Buklin was in the same boat, filled with doubt and unsure how to begin.

Seeing that Ankai was still maintaining the [Time Cage], and with doubt on his face, Will-Bucklin waved his hand, and two comfortable chairs appeared under him and Ankai.

After Ankai sat down, Will Bucklin followed suit and sat down as well.

He began to explain why he appeared in the True Spirit Space and why he had been able to survive there for so many years.

These were all experiences after Ankai died in front of him.

As Will Bucklin recounted his story, Ankai's gaze shifted from incomprehension to shock, and then to amazement, marveling at Will Bucklin's good fortune.

I am amazed that he has been able to maintain his childlike innocence as a wanderer all these years.

Will Bucklin has long since lost his "wanderer" profession, yet he continues to do so, which only shows that this is his true nature, not something he developed because of his "wanderer" career.

After Will Bucklin's explanation, Ankai finally understood why the other party possessed such great strength in the True Spirit Space.

In Will Bucklin's words, after he willingly sacrificed himself to save countless skeletons.

His shattered fragments of true spirit then sank into the true spirit space.

Unsure how to get through the initial period of confusion, Will-Buklin's most of his true spirit fragments came together, giving him self-awareness.

Recalling everything that had happened to me.

Will Bucklin then embarks on a difficult journey to find his sister, Sally Bucklin.

Even Will Bucklin described these arduous processes as "difficult," which gives you an idea of ​​the hardships involved.

Fortunately, unlike Will Bocklin, Sally Bocklin's True Spirit Fragments are all in the True Spirit Space.

Will-Bucklin has a fragment of his true spirit that was left outside the realm of the true spirit.

After going through countless hardships to gather the fragments of Sally Bucklin's spirit and just as he was about to awaken her true spirit consciousness, Will Bucklin felt a call from an old friend, which broke through numerous obstacles and reached Will Bucklin's ears in the spirit space.

At first, Will Bucklin didn't realize it was a call to him, until he felt the presence of Ankai, at which point Will Bucklin was greatly shocked.

However, when he sensed that Ankai's call could only support one person to leave, Will-Bucklin chuckled helplessly and, without hesitation, gave this only chance to the newly self-aware Sally-Bucklin spirit.

Sally Buklin was shoved into a passageway in front of her. She had just regained consciousness and knew nothing when she disappeared into the True Spirit Space.

The moment Sally Bucklin disappeared, the peaceful Spirit Realm suddenly trembled violently.

Will-Bucklin was instantly locked onto and then taken to an unfamiliar area.

Here, Will-Bucklin saw countless sleeping spirits, some whole and some in fragments.

However, these true spirits are undergoing a tremendous change.

They were supposed to wake up in the True Spirit Space, but for some unknown reason, they were unable to awaken and slowly faded away with time.

Gone forever.

The disappearance of the true spirit is not a good thing.

This means that the number of newborn beings in the divine realm will continue to decrease.

According to the operating rules of the True Spirit Space, a True Spirit will travel to the passage connecting to the God Realm after spending a period of time in the True Spirit Space.

Thus, they are transformed back into new beings.

However, this passage suddenly collapsed nearly 20,000 years ago.

The True Spirit in the True Spirit Space also fell into a deep sleep, and slowly, unable to withstand the drain, it disappeared in its slumber.

Upon learning of this, Will Bucklin resolutely chose to take on the important responsibility of restoring the passage.

As a result, Will Bucklin lost contact with Ankai after that.

Even though Ankai's [Summoning] rank kept improving, he was still one step short of finding the true spirit of Will-Buklin.

Will Bookering had been making good progress over the years, until recently when his progress suddenly stalled.

It's because Will Bucklin discovered something terrible!

"I've discovered that the passage connecting to the divine realm wasn't destroyed by external factors, but rather deliberately severed by the divine realm itself!"

"The realm of gods seems to have developed its own consciousness."

"Its own consciousness was born tens of thousands of years ago!"

"The other side of the passage is no longer the realm of gods, but a chaotic space!"

"I have always hesitated to proceed with the repair of the passage to the next step. If I do, the beings of the True Spirit Space will be 'reborn' in the Chaos Space!"

"That means severing ties with the divine realm, and at the same time, true spirits in the True Spirit Space simply cannot survive in the Chaos Space!"

"I don't understand why the divine realm would do this."

"I have no idea where the true passage connecting me to the realm of the gods is."

"So all these years, I've been wasting my time."

"If no new method is found, the sleeping spirits in the true spirit world will all perish alone in their slumber!"

"The world of true spirits will also cease to exist!"

Whether the realm of gods will continue to exist, I do not know.

Will Bucklin was very frustrated at this point, frustrated by his own uselessness.

Ankai was not at all surprised that Will Bucklin had so hastily accepted the task of saving the world.

If Will Bucklin could exchange his death for the restoration of the Spirit World to normalcy, he would do it without hesitation.

This is Will Bucklin, this is the "stupid guy" Ankai knows!

After listening to Will Bucklin's complaints, Ankai frowned slightly.

He recalled a past event.

A story about the Supreme God and deities.

It seems that around 20,000 years ago, the God of Light became the first Supreme God.

Then, around 15,000 years ago, the Dark God became the second Supreme God.

Around 10,000 years ago, the [God of Law] became the [Supreme God].

And then there's now, 20,000 years are almost up.

Ankai was originally the fourth [Supreme God].

After listening to Will-Bucklin's words, Ankai pondered something: could the severing of the passage between the spirit world and the divine realm be related to the birth of the gods?

Especially the birth of the Supreme God.

Ankai witnessed firsthand the tremendous upheaval that occurred in the divine realm after the death of the God of Light, and how the divine realm, unable to retaliate against Ankai, turned its revenge on the Good House.

Ankai has known that the divine realm possesses consciousness for quite some time.

From the first time he caught the attention of the divine realm, An Kai knew that the divine realm definitely possessed self-awareness, because at that time the divine realm actually competed with the abyss consciousness for An Kai.

After gathering his thoughts, Ankai slowly began to speak, recounting to Will-Bucklin the origins of the gods and the Supreme God.

At first, Will Bucklin listened as if it were a strange thing he didn't know.

It wasn't until later, when Ankai talked about the time when the "Supreme God" appeared, and the changes that occurred in the divine realm after the "Supreme God's" death, that things really happened.

Will Bucklin stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with a thoughtful expression.

He seemed to have guessed an extremely terrifying answer.

But this answer was far beyond Will Bucklin's comprehension.

After Ankai finished explaining the origins of the gods and the "Supreme God," he watched Will-Bucklin pace back and forth.

His expression was one of indescribable inner turmoil.

I want to say it, but I can't bring myself to say it.

The speculation about the divine realm was stuck in his throat, and he didn't know how to express it.

Seeing this, An Kai did not urge him.

They didn't rush to ask how to leave.

He has decided to help Will Bucklin resolve this matter.

Because it involves the realm of gods, this is now a matter of Ankai's own interests.

He didn't want to go back to the realm of gods and be targeted by them every day.

He then began to talk about the changes in the desert over the years. When he mentioned that the desert had turned into an ocean, Will-Bucklin exclaimed in surprise. His expression became even more conflicted when he learned that the Principality of Bucklin had become a relic at the bottom of the ocean.

Then the conversation turned to Sally Buckerlin's transformation. Upon hearing that she and Ankai had finally gotten together, Will Buckerlin showed a genuine smile, something he hadn't done in a long time.

Ankai talked a lot, about the Good Family and about himself.

He even mentioned the three abyssal races he had cultivated: goblins, green goblins, and orcs.

It has characteristics such as the ability to reproduce.

Just then, Will Bookering had a flash of inspiration.

His previously furrowed brows instantly relaxed.

He found a word to describe the current state of the divine realm.

"I think I might have guessed some of the reasons for these changes in the divine realm!"

An Kai perked up, wondering if he would be associated with Will Bookering.

Will Buckling didn't keep them in suspense any longer, and spoke solemnly and decisively:

"I feel like the divine realm is now turning into humans!"
