Chapter 353 Unity of Myriad Thoughts (5800, Seeking Monthly Tickets~)

[The Evil Soul of ████]

[A demonic soul twisted to madness, craving attention]

[A crazy and incomprehensible evil soul]

[After use, it can comprehensively increase mental power and greatly strengthen the essence and resilience of the soul]

[It can also be forged with spirituality into the 'Mind-Moving Spiritual Birth' spirit, attached to all equipment and props]

[Using special forging techniques, it can be forged into the 'Mind・Soul Gathering Spirit Armor' soul armor]

[Using special methods to reconcile, after taking it, you can obtain the inheritance of 'Unity of Myriad Thoughts']

[A soul that craves attention always asks for things it clearly doesn't need, like seeking a dim lamp when clearly bathed in moonlight]

[A boy lacking love always asks for things he has already received, like caring about meaningless evaluations from others when clearly receiving love from parents and friends]

[How can roaring and calling into the deep space receive a response? Humans who do not communicate with others become monsters, and they only have themselves to blame]

The inheritance held by the evil soul left behind by an unknown slime monster, an enemy forgotten by Su Zhou, is an extremely special and powerful divine power of mental power, similar to the 'Demon Lord of Devouring Evil', called 'Unity of Myriad Thoughts'.

The power of this divine power can transform all 'mental power' directed at the divine power holder within a certain area, including the power of vows and curses, prayers and fears, into blessings, strengthening the holder's spiritual power, talent, soul, and physical strength, without any side effects.

In other words, it is an all-around enhancement without side effects, with no weaknesses.

When Su Zhou first saw this divine power, he was also surprised because the power of this divine power was so unreasonable and ridiculously strong—he originally thought that the Silent One's divine power, which ignored any defense, directly divided pain, and made all the injuries and inner demons that people had suffered in the past reappear, was strong enough, but Unity of Myriad Thoughts was even more excessive because the Silent One at least had to endure the pain himself, that is, pay the price, while this divine power did not need to.

But soon, he also realized that this powerful ability also had equally harsh conditions.

First of all, the stronger the follower, the stronger the blessing brought by his attention. And the blessing of ordinary people is almost non-existent for a powerhouse like Su Zhou.

Secondly, the follower must be within a certain range of the divine power holder. Su Zhou sensed that if it was a leader-level, the limit was a five-kilometer radius with himself as the center—although it sounds large, it is actually very narrow. After all, ordinary humans cannot carry a group of people who pay attention to themselves to bless themselves at all times, right?

But even so, Su Zhou understood that the power of this divine power was still extremely powerful, and it could be called top-notch, especially when fighting with people. The more the enemy invested their mental power in him, the more his power would increase. It could be called a divine skill that made him stronger in battle, perfect for fighting multiple opponents at once.

Logically speaking, Su Zhou should eat the Evil Soul of ████ now to add another powerful divine power to himself.

However, he hesitated a little.

"The essence of my Demon Lord of Devouring Evil is to rely on the curses on the evil souls to condense various divine powers and soul weapons, and to strengthen myself."

Holding up the evil soul and spinning it on his fingertip, like spinning a basketball, Su Zhou fell into deep thought: "But Unity of Myriad Thoughts also needs these powers to strengthen itself—what if these two divine powers conflict if I eat it? Unity of Myriad Thoughts is strong, but not to the point where I need to risk damaging the power of the Demon Lord of Devouring Evil."

"Moreover, this divine power is, to put it bluntly, about attracting attention. The higher the profile, the stronger it is—it's almost like the more popular a celebrity is, the stronger they are."

In Su Zhou's opinion, Unity of Myriad Thoughts might as well be renamed 'Traffic Realm'. And if he, Su Zhou, accepted this divine power, he might as well change his career to become an idol—in order to eliminate more evildoers, Demon Lord of Devouring Evil Su Zhou chooses to become an idol... This setting seems quite interesting?

At that time, he could sing and dance around the world during the day, eliminate evil at night, and argue with people online in his spare time to attract traffic... Anyway, haters are also fans. Unity of Myriad Thoughts doesn't care whether it's love or hate, as long as it's a thought directed at Su Zhou, it can absorb it.

Stop it.

"Amazing Sea... Amazing Yala, do you have any suggestions for this thing?"

Yala didn't respond to Su Zhou's insincere inquiry immediately.

Lying on the table and watching the news, it just slowly raised its head and stared at Su Zhou with a pensive look, and then said seriously: "Speaking of which, Su Zhou, I should be a little older than you."

Su Zhou: "Huh?"

Isn't that obvious? It's more than a little older than him (referring to the universe), it's at least countless generations older!

Yala seemed very satisfied with Su Zhou's blank reaction, so it flicked its tail and slapped the back of Su Zhou's hand, making a slapping sound: "You should call me Big Brother."

Hearing this, Su Zhou, who vaguely understood something, twitched the corner of his mouth: "According to your calculation, I should call you Grandfather."

Yala: "Eh."

Su Zhou: "What 'eh' are you saying! Be serious, we're talking about serious matters! This is related to my future development direction, the extremely important kind!"

And Yala immediately showed a wronged expression: "How is this not a serious matter—I'm your Grandfather, so I can rightfully teach you a new method of cultivation."

Su Zhou's expression twisted a little, but he still cooperated and said: "Then you are my Grandfather."

Yala: "Eh."

"You should say something!"

Suddenly, Su Zhou became furious. He stretched out his hand and pressed it towards the snake spirit's back with lightning speed—then, he gently stroked the red snake's spine.

The touch was smooth, the scales were not hard, a little cool, and very elastic. Stroking it was very de-stressing.

"Hmm, not bad, put some strength here!"

Enjoying Su Zhou's massage, Yala nodded with satisfaction, and then, after guiding Su Zhou to rub it for a few minutes, it slowly said: "This divine power, in terms of the power of vows and curses, will indeed conflict a little with your original Demon Lord of Devouring Evil—but if you can completely analyze it, its essence can greatly increase your strength."

"Oh?"

At this, Su Zhou didn't stop moving his hands, and he asked with some doubt: "How can it increase my strength?"

"The conflict between the two divine powers is nothing more than that they will compete for the power of vows. Either 'Unity of Myriad Thoughts' will not be able to properly draw mental power for blessings, or the 'Demon Lord of Devouring Evil' will not be able to successfully generate evil souls. But, from another perspective, why do you have to activate Unity of Myriad Thoughts all the time?"

The snake spirit spoke eloquently at this time. It didn't directly tell Su Zhou what to do, but instead guided Su Zhou to think for himself: "The original owner of Unity of Myriad Thoughts needs to carry his believers with him to ensure his blessings, but although you don't have believers, you have other things that are more pure and pay more attention to you!"

"Things that pay more attention to me..." Repeating this sentence, Su Zhou fell into deep thought, and then his eyes became brighter and brighter. The young man's eyes focused on the evil soul in his hand, and he suddenly realized: "That's right, evil souls!"

As the product of the fusion of curses and soul fragments of the powerful enemies he killed, the relationship between the evil souls and Su Zhou is so close. If converted into fans, it is at least black fans who are following him 24 hours a day! And the souls of vows are naturally fanatic fans. Anyway, it's all the same.

Awakened by Yala, Su Zhou's thoughts were now extremely clear: "Yes, other people need external attention, but I am different. I bring my own traffic, my own fans, and I am self-sufficient! As long as I store some evil souls in my body and don't eat them, they will naturally provide me with attention!"

"In this way, I can completely close Unity of Myriad Thoughts' drawing of external mental power, and only make it effective for my own soul space... Hmm, in this way, the wisdom tree spirit also has toys to play with usually, killing two birds with one stone!"

The more Su Zhou thought about it, the smoother it became. After all, there are also differences between evil souls. Eating some evil souls will improve his strength, while some evil souls are particularly useless. Not only do they taste bad, but the improvement after eating them is not as much as he can gain from ten minutes of serious cultivation. But since he took them, it's not right not to eat them.

And now, those useless evil souls have a use.

Since he had already thought about the future direction, Su Zhou didn't have so many entanglements. He directly picked up the evil soul and swallowed it in one gulp.

Its taste was like a turbid bitter wine. The intense spicy and sour taste, the unwillingness and impotent rage originating from the soul, burst out like a volcano. The thickness of the curses contained in this evil soul made even Su Zhou feel slightly drunk. An almost uncontrollable desire started from the tip of his tongue, swept through his entire oral cavity and esophagus, and then spread to his whole body.

——Stare at me, stare at me, stare at me!

Chaotic thoughts flooded into his mind, and then were suppressed by Su Zhou with incomparable skill.

Then, a more essential divine power manifested, causing the young man to close his eyes.

[Heart moves and thoughts are born, thoughts move and emotions are born, emotions move and desires are born, desires move and actions are born.

All actions begin with a thought, a heart, a desire, an emotion. All living beings in the Three Realms have thousands of hearts and thousands of thoughts, which can generate all conditioned dharmas and all divine powers.

Therefore, when myriad thoughts return to one, great power is born.]

It was not any language, any form, a pure understanding was swallowed by Su Zhou, incorporated into his heart, and transformed into his own power.

After being silent for several minutes, Su Zhou opened his eyes.

A dim blue-purple light flowed in his pupils, like a black hole, absorbing all the momentum and thoughts surrounding him.

For a time, within a circle with a radius of five kilometers, all thoughts and ideas related to Su Zhou vibrated slightly, were perceived by him, and transformed into his own power.

In that instant, Su Zhou even had a feeling that if someone in this range recited his name, he would have a feeling and be able to know the location of the person who said his name.

And at the same time, with the convergence of thoughts, his power also increased wildly, fiercely, and explosively, instantly increasing by more than 30%!

The entire Diligent Practice Academy, all the students and professors who knew Su Zhou and paid attention to Su Zhou, contributed a part of their power to Su Zhou, temporarily increasing Su Zhou's power by 30% in just a few seconds!

However, after a few seconds, this vision was suppressed. The spiritual light that rotated like a vortex in Su Zhou's eyes gradually retracted into his vertical pupils. At this moment, he had suppressed the power of Unity of Myriad Thoughts back into his body, so as not to interfere with the Demon Lord of Devouring Evil.

"...Although it still needs to be analyzed to truly transform this divine power into my own power, but now, I have found the path to the front."

At this moment, Su Zhou already had a clear picture in his mind—he thought of the electronic underworld, and he thought of the souls hanging on the wisdom tree like bacon, that rather terrifying scene, but instead inspired him.

If the things hanging on the wisdom tree were not souls, but evil souls, what would the scene be like?

At that time, Su Zhou's soul space might also be transformed into a small underworld, as a place for judging the souls of evildoers, and the punishment they would have to endure would be to sink into eternal tribulation, hanging on the tree of suffering and punishment, becoming his power.

Sounds like a demon king? That's right.

"How do you feel?" Yala's voice sounded, with a hint of appreciation for an outstanding creation: "Isn't it very good?"

"Quite good."

At this, Su Zhou raised his hand, and he casually grabbed at the air, and a loud sonic boom was about to explode directly in the office—but before the oscillating sound wave could spread even a millimeter, it was suppressed and calmed by the thick spiritual power, returning to silence. Without using any special power to bless it, just a bare-handed grab in human form can directly create a shock wave like a high explosive... Even Su Zhou couldn't help but nod slightly in approval of his own power: "Although it's just a temporary increase, but from the physical body, soul to control, all have increased by 30%, which is already very terrifying."

As the saying goes, a martial art that is one line higher is infinitely higher. Although transcendents are not as extreme as martial arts practitioners, the consideration of strength is not only spiritual power. But Su Zhou has added a three-layer increase in all aspects, which is enough to crush an enemy that was originally evenly matched!

"Of course, the Diligent Practice Academy has a large population density, and most of them are cultivators who are familiar with me. If it were replaced by ordinary people in other places, it would be good to have a few percent increase."

Su Zhou was very clear about his own situation. Anyway, most of his mental power in the future will probably come from evil souls. He will not draw mental power from the outside world unless it is an emergency, so the requirements in this regard are not very high.

Now, he is instead enthusiastically feeling the benefits brought by his new ability. The young man turned his head and looked to one side of the dormitory: "Interesting, someone is chanting my name? And this level of attention... I didn't expect that I also have fans in the Diligent Practice Academy!"

"Ew, what's this feeling?!"

At the same time, Jin Qiong, who was secretly smearing Su Zhou on Weibo and forums, couldn't help but shudder. She took off her earphones and looked around suspiciously, but found no one else.

"What's wrong... Little Qiongqiong?"

And her roommate, Li Yeyu, woke up from her dream with a lazy tone. The black-haired beauty squinted at Jin Qiong: "What, you haven't slept yet? Professor Su has an assessment tomorrow, don't stay up late and be out of shape."

In the dormitory, Li Yeyu was too lazy to pretend to be a cold and emotionless person. After waking up, she ran enthusiastically behind Jin Qiong, hugged the divine bird girl's neck, and pressed her chest on the other's head, like a steel plate: "Let me see what you are doing... Wow!"

"Don't look!"

Startled, Jin Qiong immediately closed her webpage, but unfortunately, Li Yeyu had already seen the title of the webpage, and she read it word by word: "Su Zhou's Biggest Fan Forum... Wh-what? I didn't expect it, Little Qiongqiong, you are actually a fan of Professor Su!"

The more she read, the more surprised her tone became, even to the point of shock. Li Yeyu covered her mouth: "Oh my god, is this Stockholm syndrome!"

What is Stockholm syndrome?

Although she wanted to ask this question, Jin Qiong didn't have extra time to think now. She could only nod stiffly: "Ah, um... Yes, that's right!"

The next day, the apprehensive divine bird girl and her roommate did not usher in the final assessment conducted by their team leader professor.

Because Su Zhou, who had already mastered a new divine power, took a few days off and returned to his hometown to prepare for going to another world.

Since the road ahead has been opened, he must walk forward with big strides.

Acting decisively is Su Zhou's personality.

June 3, 2017, morning.

In his home, Su Zhou, who had put all the supplies in his personal space, picked up the Celestial Scale, and Yala, wrapped around Su Zhou's wrist, spat out a chaotic, colorless aura towards it when the young man raised this silver metal creation... If you had to describe it, it would be a iridescent black.

After this aura was spat out, it turned into spinning vortexes. They intertwined with each other, affected each other, and changed the direction of rotation and the position of movement. It was impossible to tell what form these vortexes would take in the next moment.

But, as this aura touched the Celestial Scale, an enormous suction force like a returning ruin burst out, and then, a brilliant silver light lit up, decomposing all the aura into pure brilliance.

Divine patterns spread, and then, on the watch, on the blue and gray scales, a iridescent black scale was condensed.

That was Yala's imprint.

Immediately afterwards, time and space rippled endlessly under the power of the Celestial God.

[——World Core Element・Divine Dragon——]

[——Erosion Deviation Value 99.99%——]

[——Unstable Wandering World——]

"Damn!?"

Seeing the divine patterns appearing on the Celestial Scale, Su Zhou opened his mouth wide. He was shocked and said: "Erosion deviation value is nearly 100%?! Yala, what did you do? It's even higher than the Lord of Silence?! And what's going on with this unstable wandering world?"

"I've already run out, what did you expect it to be?"

At this, the red snake wrapped around Su Zhou's hand tightened even more: "Stop talking nonsense, if you don't go, I'll close the space-time channel. I haven't even planned to let you go yet!"

"You say I can't go, so I can't go? Wouldn't I lose face?"

Hearing this sentence, Su Zhou immediately raised his eyebrows: "I have to go—let's go!"

Stretching out his hand and touching the chaotic space-time light ball, Su Zhou vaguely saw neat marble bricks behind the space-time gate—was he going to be teleported into a man-made building this time? Thinking like this, he was quite excited about encountering new things: "Interesting!"

And in the next instant, the young man disappeared, being teleported to the distant other side of another world.

——If everything went normally.

[Anomaly - World essence loss detected]

Suddenly, in the middle of the teleportation, the magnificent divine patterns on the Celestial Seal changed rapidly: [This world is in an abnormal state, should the strife descent continue?]

"Abnormal? Essence loss?"

Already in the icy void, suddenly encountering this change, Su Zhou was immediately full of question marks: "Yala, what's going on? Your world sounds like it's in bad shape!"

"I guess... this may be because I ran out partially? I am a part of the essence of that world... Sigh, I don't only have one world, who knows which one went wrong."

The red snake was also a little uncertain, after all, it was not in its complete form: "To be honest, I didn't really manage my worlds... You know, I've never liked those who are too controlling, and I tend to let everyone do what they want and see what kind of fruit can be borne in the end."

"In other words, you just let it go and watch the sea for ten thousand years?"

Although he was complaining, there was really no way. Since it had already reached this point, Su Zhou had no other choice. He could feel that the energy maintaining the Celestial Scale teleportation was rapidly fading, even if he was fully filling it with spiritual power, it was far from enough. If he terminated the teleportation now, the outcome might not be very good.

"No way, I can only rush!"

Tsk, Su Zhou wasn't afraid at all—after all, he had known very early on that although this world seemed to have choices, there was actually no room for thought. What's more, with the current situation, there was no time to think.

Following the guidance of the Celestial Scale, he fell towards the world that was releasing brilliant light. Su Zhou didn't close his eyes, but opened his eyes wide, watching everything.

He could see that he was crashing towards the world barrier that was filled with endless light and looked extremely solid.

Approaching, constantly approaching.

Then, there was a collision.

Small ripples like raindrops falling on the lake surface rippled, and the brilliance rippled.

Su Zhou entered Yala's world in this way.

And during this process, he vaguely heard clear and childish chanting voices.

[...The dragon that ends the gods, gnaws on the divine tree, replaces the era, and destroys all things]

[If you can listen to my words, then follow the response of the progenitor dragon]

[Answer the call and come]

Everyone, guess who this summoning term was originally for?
