Chapter 1917: Chapter 1917
The world continued to develop, and the world of the undead kept changing slowly. Anyway, the world’s consciousness hadn’t noticed anything different, but the whole world was gradually slipping out of the control of world consciousness.
On the surface, those undead still obeyed the control of world consciousness; however, in reality, if the undead were unwilling, they could completely free themselves from this control. The armed forces of the territory were entirely different from the undead created by the world itself.
Even the undead of this world, once they submitted to a powerful undead, those stronger ones would be the primary controllers.
World consciousness could manipulate the instincts of the undead, but the will of the strong was more controlling than instincts.
Gradually, Du You’s doppelgangers all reached the peak of the eighth tier, and the number of eighth-tier subordinates grew. Whether scattered or assembled, they were an incredibly formidable force.
It was unknown how many years had passed in this world. During this time, the doppelgangers continuously hunted the world’s own eighth-tier undead along with the guardians. They would secretly hunt a few and then return to create eighth-tier guardians.
No corpses were wasted, only the origin of law was collected, which could be used by the main body later.
By using this method, since the number of eighth-tier powerhouses did not change significantly, the world consciousness had still not noticed anything unusual. At most, these eighth-tier powerhouses were unwilling to merge into its law. Googlᴇ search 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾※𝙣𝙚𝙩
But that didn’t matter. They were all strong individuals of this world, and in the eyes of world consciousness, they would help itself grow.
As for the external danger, since this world was rather remote and had only been discovered after so many years, they themselves hadn’t ventured out. So, without anyone to explore outside, the world consciousness knew nothing about it.
The internal parasites kept thriving and multiplying, eventually leading to this situation.
On this day, the White Bone Doppelganger felt something strange with the power within him, for he noticed it unexpectedly began to condense, transforming into something he himself could hardly believe.
It was a higher-level power, one Du You was very familiar with—it was the origin of the ninth tier.
Du You hadn’t accepted other powers; this power was self-condensed and was even different from the main body’s power.
Reflecting on it, Du You roughly understood what was happening. Perhaps it was because of the long-term separation from the main body and lack of communication, the influence from the main body on itself had diminished to the extreme.
This influence wasn’t in terms of control, but the influence of power itself. The doppelganger’s cultivation improved with White Bone-type power, coupled with the power largely coming from the marked skeletons under his command.
Every time these skeletons hunted, a portion of the power would be refined and handed to him. With so many years of development, his forces had become exceedingly powerful. In the entire world, the White Bone Doppelganger controlled the most undead.
The other ninth-tier undead could not compare with him. Since world consciousness hadn’t noticed, and a large number of skeletons pledging loyalty to him, the world consciousness naturally favored him. Even though he hadn’t merged into the law, many laws were still open to him. With continuous understanding, the power of Du You’s White Bone Doppelganger was also slowly increasing.
Today, with the strength and will of a large number of skeleton subordinates, he finally broke through the limit.
Indeed, the doppelganger was originally unable to transcend its limitations, unable to reach the same level as the main body. Unless it was a high-level doppelganger, but Du You was clearly using a standard doppelganger technique, not even a skill.
This was an application of his own power, originally limited. Who knew this capability could spontaneously evolve? Fueled by immense power and the effects of a special closed environment, it resulted in this situation.
When Du You’s White Bone Doppelganger advanced, the entire world trembled.
Other undead doppelgangers also stopped their actions and looked in this direction.
"Strange, what’s happening? It seems world is growing, although the growth isn’t substantial."
Hearing Lin Yushi’s words, Du You also snapped back. "It’s growing, but most of the growing parts already belong to us, and the world consciousness can’t entirely control it."
"What’s happening, how could this be?" Lin Yucha couldn’t figure it out.
Du You was also amused. Without prior contact with his doppelganger, he never imagined that upon reconnecting, the doppelganger would have transformed . "The plan turned out more perfect than I expected."
Pausing, Du You continued, "Due to some special reasons, my doppelganger unexpectedly broke through the limitations of an ordinary doppelganger, advancing to the ninth tier. Because of the doppelganger’s breakthrough, that’s why this world is growing. After all, the doppelganger is considered a native resident of this world. However, since a doppelganger is still a doppelganger, therefore, this part is controlled by Earth."
"I see. So, when the doppelganger that broke through the ninth tier returns, the master’s strength can easily be raised to the peak of the ninth tier?" The two sisters suddenly realized something.
"In terms of power and comprehension of laws, it’s enough. I just don’t know what conditions are necessary. At the very least, the creation power we currently have is probably insufficient." Both previous advancements required creation power, so it wouldn’t be free this time either.
"Shall we proceed to attack that world now? It seems that we should be ready."
"Largely, it’s manageable, but I want to be a bit more cautious. Since one doppelganger can rise to the ninth tier, other doppelgangers should also have the potential. When the ten ninth-tier doppelgangers start the war, the augmentations on them from that world will immediately disappear. To be safe, I choose the safer route."
Although Du You had an adventurous spirit, the danger must be within controllable limits.
It could also be said that Du You was quite cautious, considering the formidable strength of powerhouses in that world. With current strength, he truly didn’t dare to confront them head-on. Who knows how long it would last.
It’s not just about himself. If something happened to Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi, Du You would surely regret it.
Du You had already decided, and the two sisters wouldn’t oppose him. Thus, they continued with their leisurely life.
During this period, Du You and his family hardly engaged in battles. Apart from managing certain affairs, their daily life was scarcely different from that of ordinary people.
Sometimes, Du You even forgot that he was a powerful person. It wasn’t precisely forgetting but rather occasionally completely overlooking it. Life felt simple yet fulfilling, and Du You’s feeling was pretty good.
