Chapter 666: By Reversal

Lin Zaishan had always backed up other people's star soul codes before, but this time, considering that he was going to mark the new seventh-level star soul symbol, he had to back up himself first. There are several powerful star souls imprisoned in his star soul world (Beimi's black and white envoys, insect kings, they are all level seven; Advanced wisdom plant XXX-99, which is a sixth-level star soul; Purple electric mist, incomplete seventh-level star soul; He also provided for the mutilated sixth-level star soul of the Xiangzhu Monk; Finally, there are a handful of sixth-level Star Soul Primordials picked up from the ruins and battlefields).

For now, the only ones that are suitable for him are these sixth-level Star Soul primordial bodies that he has picked up, and they are all more or less mutilated and flawed (of course, he thought about formatting the seventh-level Star Soul, but he didn't have the corresponding ability, so he had to give up), and he had to repair them before using them.

The restoration of the original Star Soul and the code is an important area that Lin Zaishan has always wanted to delve into but has never been able to take care of, and now he has to put it on his agenda. Anyway, in the situation of the death loop, he has time, and he can't do anything else.

As a result, Lin Zaishan spent more than 3 hours in this cycle mainly on repairing the Star Soul Primordial Body. To repair the original Star Soul Body, you have to use the fragments of other Star Soul Primordial Body, and it is not easy to break the Star Soul Original Body. As soon as Lin Zaishan found a little way, he was swallowed up by the whirlpool of heaven's damnation.

In the new cycle, the seventh-level Star Soul symbol he expected did not appear, which just gave him time to continue to study and repair the Star Soul Primordial Body. In this way, it took dozens of rounds for him to finally master the relevant knowledge and technology.

"Alas, it took N low-level star souls to repair a high-level star soul, won't this attract new heavenly punishment?" Lin Zaishan sighed, "Because the evolution path of the Star Soul Coder always has to explore and intervene in the ultimate reality and operating logic of the world, it is inevitable that it will be accompanied by Heavenly Damnation, which can be described as difficult and dangerous. ”

He looked at the sixth-level Star Soul Primordial Body that he had just repaired that was shining with golden light, and thought to himself, "With it, I don't need to use the purple electric mist in the sky to store and transmit information. In the past reincarnations, purple electric mist has played a crucial role, but ......"

Fritch exclaimed, "How far have you come, Zha Lin?" ”

"The next round should be able to mark the seventh-level star soul symbol."

"You seem to have said this N times! Don't rush, take your time. Anyway, it doesn't cost money to cycle it once. ”

The next time it really came true, the seventh-level Star Soul 7C appeared outside the gate of Lin Zaishan's Star Soul Villa by itself. Lin Zaishan had discovered and mastered the "cheats" of marking 7C from the Star Soul Rubik's Cube before, and had conducted preliminary training, so this marking was unexpectedly smooth. No matter which direction the flickering 7C moves, it will be intercepted by Lin Zaishan's main consciousness, and finally there is no way to escape, "obediently obey".

After completing the 7C mark, the Oceania Star Soul Shepherd will appear. The crowd and the two envoys began to confront each other.

Lin Zaishan took the opportunity to make a backup of his Star Soul code. After he finished backing up, the second envoy became angry and activated the Damnation Stone.

The basic attribute of 7C is speed, and marking 7C means a spike in speed. At this time, in Lin Zaishan's eyes, the speed of everything around him was much slower than before, which allowed him to see more clearly, which was equivalent to winning more time for observation and action.

He observes the whirlpool of damnation and discovers a great deal of useful information from it.

In the following reincarnations, Lin Zaishan directly obtained the effect of marking 7C from his backup Star Soul, and continued to observe the Vortex of Heavenly Damnation, finally reaching the point where he could parse its code.

"The Vortex of Damnation does have something in common with the energy vortex I encountered in the Hall of the Worm King, but the former uses a seventh-level star soul symbol that I haven't marked yet, 7F, and it's more powerful. The basic property of 7F is time. Thinking of this, Lin Zaishan slapped his head: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, the basic mechanism of the death loop is time control!" If I want to break the cycle of death, I have to master the 7F and gain time control. ”

In the hundreds of reincarnations that followed, Lin Zaishan focused his time and energy on decoding the whirlpool of heavenly damnation and searching and researching 7F. He deciphered hundreds of high-value information from the Star Soul Cube game, and finally found a hint: "There are 5 basic conditions for marking 7F: (1) Master multiple threshold symbols such as 7C first, and get their blessings. (2) Constantly repeating the profound experience of running out of time at a critical juncture, which will accumulate a relationship with the 7F. (3) The marker must first complete more than 95% of the progress of the Rubik's Cube game and pass the test of all levels in the TSSS01-10 range. If you can't complete the above tests, it means that you are not competent. Forcibly marking is not only a waste of energy, but also easy to get lost in the fragments of time. (4) The marker needs to reserve the pure neutral energy of the universe in advance, and be prepared to consume hundreds or thousands of times more energy than the marker 7C. (5) Finally, timing is crucial in the process of marking. The window period that is really suitable for marking may only be 0.0001 seconds (automatically converted to the unit of timekeeping of the plane, there may be errors, hehe). ”

Lin Zaishan gasped, "What is the concept of 0.0001 seconds?" For ordinary people, it may not even have time to generate an idea, and of course, there is no effective action. Thankfully, I'm fast enough. ”

Although he has not yet seen the deity of the 7F Star Soul Symbol, his past experience shows that he is related to the time element. Long before the end, his experience of time was different; At the beginning of the apocalypse, he gained the instantaneous visual slow-motion ability; In the course of his end-time adventures, he always seems to be able to win more time than others in critical moments; And now it is stuck in a death loop, and the cycle time has been expanded from 25 minutes to 8 hours.

In order to ensure the success of the marking, Lin Zaishan honestly followed the tips of the Rubik's Cube to train the game levels, and finally met the requirements. This again took nearly a hundred cycles.

"Zalin, you're getting ready again...... Next cycle? Fritch asked patiently. On the super battleship, except for Lin Zaishan, he is the strongest. He is also the first person to be awakened by Lin Zaishan in each death cycle, and he has experienced unimaginable failures and pains. Although Fritsch was still forcibly exercising self-restraint, Lin Zaishan had already sensed that he was on the verge of collapse.

"Old Fer, I promise we're close to success."

"Then work harder!"

In order to increase the probability of success, Lin Zaishan specially found Caroline and asked her to pray for her to mark 7F this time; He also ordered Lin Fuzi to prepare.

He reviewed it repeatedly, was sure that everything was ready, and resolutely entered the Star Soul World. The seventh-level Star Soul symbol 7F appeared proudly in the Star Soul Villa as if it had been agreed. When it first appeared, it was a flickering cluster of light that changed its shape back and forth, almost causing Lin Zaishan to mistake it for a variant of purple electric mist; But the magical changes that followed made Lin Zaishan have to believe that this is the famous 7F.

Lin Zaishan found that there were two of his own main consciousnesses investigating 7F. Just as he was amazed by this, 3, 4, or even hundreds of himself and 7F appeared, each of which was probing 7F and probing each other.

"Is this the time fragmentation effect that accompanies the approach to 7F?" The original Lin Zaishan Lord consciously pondered intently.

7F is like a noisy guest, crowds and triumphant rampaging in the Star Soul Villa in Lin Zaishan, making chickens and dogs jump.

Lin Zaishan's primordial consciousness tries to locate 7F, but is always disturbed by factors from other fragments.

"I didn't understand the principle, but my intuition told me that in this case, it was impossible to mark the self in just one fragment of time. Even if one of my marks is successful, it will be quickly replaced by another time fragment of the self in the state or replaced. The only way out is that I mark all the time fragments at the same time and succeed at the same time. ”

As if he understood Lin Zaishan's thoughts, the flickering rhythm was faster and more intense, and began to demolish the Star Soul Villa.

"It's too much!" Lin Zaishan in all the time fragments scolded at the same time, "I have to mark you today!" ”

Willing to do it or not, he had no way back.

"Smack", all Lin Zaishan snapped his fingers at the same time, transforming all 7F into human forms - they have no uniform appearance, some are hippie smiling clowns, some are bewitching beauties, and some are samurai with sharp blades...... All sorts of things, and so on.

"Want me? Dream on! "A 7F that transformed into a clown sent an idea, and I don't know from which time and space the information was intercepted, which instantly caused a serious impact on Lin Zaishan's main consciousness." You know how good I am, right? You're going to be completely finished! ”

"Don't be complacent, you forgot a basic truth." Lin Zaishan's initial consciousness reluctantly responded.

"What facts?"

"You have entered my Star Soul World. I'm in charge of my Star Soul World! ”

"Smack", all Lin Zaishan snapped their fingers at the same time, and in each fragment of time, a code protective net was raised, enveloping the humanoid 7F.

"Do you think you'll trap me?" 7F exudes an aura of disdainful energy. It creates a temporal deviation that instantly destroys all code nets and wreaks havoc on all forests.

"It's amazing!" Lin Zaishan's initial consciousness gritted his teeth, "I have one last trick, please taste it!" ”

As soon as his mind moved, all Lin Zaishan recited the concentric mantra at the same time, and formed a unified body of action across the fragments of time. The power of each forest in the mountains is already very strong, and the so-called whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and the power of the unified action formed by hundreds or thousands of forests in the mountains is even stronger. They locked the 7F in unison and began to mark.

7F vigorously creates a time deviation and tries to get rid of it. However, all the forests worked closely together, and the deviation in their movements was controlled to within 0.0001 seconds, which exceeded the set limit of 7F.

When the energy flow of the universe was instilled, all Lin Jaeshan completed the 7F mark with 100% excellent results.

"Bang" was another snap of his fingers, all the fragments of time became one, and Lin Zaishan's initial subjective consciousness was safe and sound.

"Now that I've mastered the time element, I should be able to gain more time." Lin Zaishan was thinking about the subtle feeling of time fluctuations.

//////

After completing the 7F mark, Lin Zaishan plans to mark the 7D that represents space in one go, so that he will mark all the seventh-level star soul threshold symbols, which means that he will be promoted to the coveted seventh-level level. But maybe the time has not come, fate is not enough, and after dozens of attempts, a lot of other symbols have been marked, but they just didn't encounter 7D.

Seeing the pain and suffering of Fritsch and the others because of the repeated loading of memories, Lin Zaishan knew that the death cycle could not continue indefinitely, so that even if he himself finally got out of trouble, Fritsch and the others would suffer some permanent trauma. He could choose not to load their memories for them, but that would mean losing the team's strength boost and a lot of valuable information, as well as the advantage against the Star Soul Shepherd and the Damned Vortex, the consequences of which were also beyond his prediction and control.

"I can now counter the code of the Damned Vortex, and should be able to break the cycle of death. Still, I'd have to be cautious. You know: the Vortex of Damnation could have destroyed me and my companions long ago, but the Curse of the Fire Stealer had created a death cycle because of the priority of damage execution. If I make a mistake when cracking the Vortex of Damnation, I won't be able to resurrect after being swallowed up again. ”

After several rounds of experiments, Lin Zaishan didn't dare to consume it anymore, and decisively released the code to crack the whirlpool of heaven's damnation, but its effect was not satisfactory, and everything was still swallowed up; But fortunately, the cycle continues.

Lin Zaishan tried several times in succession, and each time he could prolong the time of confrontation, but he couldn't eliminate the whirlpool of heaven's damnation. He racked his brains and couldn't figure out what the problem was, so he decided to use the wisdom of the crowd.

Fritch said: "It must be that we are not strong enough, if we improve it again, we should be able to crack it." ”

Schwaronson's point is that since he knew that the Stone of Damnation was activated by the Oceania Black Envoy, he only needed to preemptively deal with the Black Envoy. Lin Zaishan tried this plan several times, and although he also forced the Black Envoy to be embarrassed, he just couldn't stop the latter from using the Heavenly Damnation Stone.

Alice's point was to create a spell that would bind the actions of the Star Soul Shepherd, so that the Black Envoy would not be able to use the Damnation Stone at all. Lin Zaishan also tried, but the star soul energy of the seventh-level powerhouse was not a joke, and the black envoy always had a way to break free.

Lin Zaishan asked Dr. Sam and Mira again, and they suggested using the Star Soul Self-Detonation Technique to stop it. Lin Zaishan used low-level Star Souls to make a batch of self-detonation traps, and although the Star Soul Shepherd was seriously injured, they still activated the Heavenly Punishment Stone.

Lin Zaishan went to Adele again, and the latter said, "Male god, didn't you say that the clouds in the sky will not be swallowed? If that takes the Star Soul Shepherd into the clouds......"

"Great idea!" Lin Zaishan immediately communicated with the purple electric mist above his head, who resolutely refused to set himself on fire. He had no choice but to give up, in fact, deep down he felt rejected, because the purple electric mist is a key carrier for the transmission of information across rounds, and if something happens, it may lose an important foundation for breaking the loop.

"Why didn't we try all kinds of things but it didn't work? Why is it that our combined strength has surpassed that of the pair of perverted Star Soul Shepherds, but we still can't stop them? Lin Zaishan frustrated and rested his head on Caroline's knees.

Caroline gently helped him knead his head and face, and comforted, "Honey, maybe you should change your mind." ”

"What's the way you want to think?"

"You've always treated the Star Soul Shepherd as a mortal enemy in the past, so every move you make to strengthen yourself will only lead to stronger countermeasures from the Star Soul Shepherd; But the Bible says well, love not only your neighbor, but also your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you. If we can adjust our mindset and strategy, do the opposite, and think about the Star Soul Shepherd, maybe the problem will be solved. ”

"Oh?" Lin Zaishan fell into deep thought when he heard this.

"Honey, are you alright?"

"I really realized it this time!" Lin Zaishan jumped up excitedly and kissed Caroline, "Fortunately, I have you!" Otherwise, I don't know how long I will explore. ”

"You have a solution?"

"Yes. This time I promise to crack the death loop! ”
