GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1500 Win-Win Scheme.

Chapter 1500 Win-Win Scheme.

He doesn't think the fight would lead to anything useful, but Mother High Heaven doesn't agree with him.

She replied, "Nothing is impossible. If the world spark can be usurped through the era of conquest, then the realm lord can also be usurped. It will be very difficult to do and would require the power to take away the immortality of Origin gods. But it is possible. Nothing is permanent until the realm tree detaches itself from the law matrix and the realm lord becomes a world god himself."

That surprised Legion-8. He asked in surprise, "So the dragon spirit can nullify the immortality of Origin gods?"

"Not the dragon spirit, but the entity behind the dragon spirit."

That answer enlightened Legion-8. There is only one entity that he knows that is behind the dragon spirit. And that entity is the dragon king, who is the ancestor of dragons.

Still, he was still skeptical. He voiced his doubts to her, "Even then, it is impossible for this dragon with the power of an Origin god to challenge you. The dragon spirit is just sending dragonlings to their deaths."

Mother High Heaven disagreed with him again. "No, it is not. The dragon spirit only sends powerful dragonlings here. How many dragonlings do you think are capable of reaching this far back in time with their soul?"

He replied, "I assume they are not many."

"There is none at this point. There have been none for a thousand Origin cycles. It was easier in the past when the difficulty wasn't so high. So the dragon spirit has stopped sending dragonlings here until you came along."

Something caught his attention. "What do you mean by "sending dragonlings here?" Don't they come here by chance? Isn't the trial by chance?"

Mother High Heaven snickered again. "No trial is by chance. The memory space is anchored by the dragon spirit. It can display whichever trial it wants. The prerequisite is for you to be able to enter it. It knows everything you are doing, and it sent you here for a reason. Your soul was strong enough, so here you are."

She continued, "Pride might blind other dragons, but your greed blinds you to reason sometimes. That's why I thought you were in cohoots with the dragon spirit. After all, there is a lot to gain if you win this battle. But from what I can tell, you were not informed of your job in this battle."

Legion-8 was still surprised, even though he knew the dragon spirit was the anchor of the mental space. But he thought that the trials were random. At least, he didn't know what was in the imprint before he entered it. So it is possible for the dragon spirit to lead him about.

When he thought about that point, he also realized that the difficulty he has been having in acquiring all the talents might not be by chance. The dragon spirit might actually be sabotaging his attempt to acquire the last talent, which made him continue searching. He went deeper and deeper into the mental space until he reached a time node where he could be sent into this memory. 𝘧𝑟𝓮𝓮𝓌𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝑚

He said in understanding, "I see. The dragon spirit wants to get me killed. If it could kill me itself, it would have done so already. I doubt it sent me here with the belief that I could actually usurp you."

Mother High Heaven chuckled and said, "You are partly right. The dragon spirit can't kill you, so it wants me to kill you. But that's so it can possess your core. If you die, then it will be able to take that powerful core that you are building for yourself. After all, I doubt you would subject yourself to the naming ceremony. So it is nipping the problem in the bud. And if you do the unexpected and manage to usurp me, then the dragon spirit will become the Will of the realm."

Mother High Heaven finished with a smile. "To the dragon spirit, this encounter was supposed to be a win-win for it regardless of the outcome. But then you quit right from the start."

Legion-8 broke out in a sweat then. What Mother High Heaven just said reminded him of the schemes of powerful beings. It reminded him of the first sage and his schemes that always leave him winning.

This scheme is not as intricate as those of the first sage since he could still survive it, but it is enough for him to realize that he has become the target of the dragon spirit and that the dragon spirit probably knows about the shard of power.

His suspicion is because if there is any way or any means for him to usurp Mother High Heaven, it would be through the incomprehensible power of the shard of power.

He had used the shard of power to create a dragon heart without weakness while he was still in the egg, so he is certain that the dragon spirit would have noticed the change to him. But he expected the dragon spirit to consider it a fluke. After all, there is no way the fragment of the soul of an Origin god is capable of it. The shard of power is also invisible to other beings.

Apparently, he was wrong. Even if the dragon spirit doesn't know exactly how he created his dragon heart, it knows enough to push him toward a dangerous situation where the odds are stacked against him. So he either has to create another miracle that will benefit the dragon spirit or he dies, which will also benefit the dragon spirit. It was indeed a win-

win scheme for the dragon spirit.

Legion-8 lamented, "I guess I am in trouble."

Mother High Heaven confirmed it. "You are in big trouble. The dragon spirit definitely has its eyes on you. It will not be easy for you to escape from it."

Legion-8 was not discouraged or cowered. He said, "I expected dealing with the dragons to be difficult. This has not changed my expectations of it."
