Thinking of this, Lin Xiao suddenly understood why there were so many restrictions on the artifacts. He couldn't help but ask, "I understand now. The Sage Emperor created you and gave you a mission to protect the Firmament World. He also restricted your freedom so that you can't leave the Firmament World. Is that right?"
"That's right."
Chuckling, the Blade Of The Undead continued, "The Sage Emperor is extremely powerful. He is an existence that can create all things and set the rules!"
"If the Sage Emperor is so powerful, then what about the strongest Heavenly Sage?"
Lin Xiao asked curiously after hearing the Blade Of The Undead's words.
"This … I'm not sure either."
After hesitating for a moment, the Blade Of The Undead shook his head awkwardly and said helplessly, "I only know of such an existence. I have no idea about his strength. In fact, the strongest person I've seen was only a Sage Master!"
"Oh?"
Hearing that the Blade Of The Undead had seen a Sage Master, Lin Xiao couldn't help but be interested. He asked, "Then if you were at your peak, would you have a chance of winning against a Sage Master in the early stage?"
"Of course there's no chance of winning!
Even if we were at our peak, we would have to pay a huge price to injure a Sage Master, let alone defeat one! "
The Blade Of The Undead looked helplessly at Lin Xiao and continued, "From a Sage Master to a Sage Master, there is a qualitative change. A world with a Sage Master can be called a medium-sized world. Our Firmament World is just a small world because there is no Sage Master!"
"So that's how it is!"
When Lin Xiao heard this, he revealed a look of sudden realization.
He didn't expect that although he had been talking about the Firmament World, the real definition of the Firmament World was just the Firmament Minor World!
It seemed that the outside world was still very big!
Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with interest and he clenched his fist.
Although he was full of ambition and interest in the outside world, Lin Xiao's current priority was how to distribute the adamantine stones.
Although the experts who had come with him were all members of the Grand Spring Dynasty, there was no way Lin Xiao would take all of the adamantine for himself. He would definitely give it to them.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao directly said to Poison Lord, Empty King, Xu Tianchong, and the others, "You don't have to be polite with me. If you need anything, just take it. Each of you can take three portions!"
Although Lin Xiao had told them not to stand on ceremony, there was no way he would allow them to take it. After all, adamantine was very important to Lin Xiao.
After leaving the Firmament world, adamantine could, to a certain extent, be used as a form of 'currency'. Lin Xiao naturally had to stock up on it, in case he needed it.
The Divine Generals naturally didn't have any complaints about Lin Xiao's allocation. Poison Lord, Kong Wang, Xu Tianchong and the others had also received Lin Xiao's favor and didn't have any objections to Lin Xiao's decision.
After each of them had taken three portions of adamantine, Lin Xiao's gaze fell upon the divine artifact. He said, "You guys can go take some as well. Restore your power to the peak of your level!"
"Forget it. The restrictions of the Firmament world still apply. Even if we restore our power to the peak, we'll only be able to unleash the power of a peak-stage Half-Saint. Why don't we first heal our wounds and return to the peak of the Half-Saint realm?"
The Blade Of The Undead glanced at Lin Xiao, then said in a righteous voice, "We've been by your side for so long. We won't take advantage of you!"
"This …"
Hearing Undying's words, Lin Xiao felt rather embarrassed.
After all, the Blade Of The Undead, the Bloodlust Sword, and the Heavenly Bell had nearly died for him. To only take three portions of adamantine stones was indeed a bit unfair to them.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but continue, "Are you sure you only need three portions?
Don't tell me you don't want to return to your peak state? "
The Blade Of The Undead shook his head, looked at Lin Xiao, and said somewhat bitterly, "If we can't leave the Firmament world, what's the point of having so many adamantine stones?"
"This …"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao fell silent. After a while, he asked, "Is there really no way to leave the Firmament world?"
"We've already sealed the spatial passageways between the Firmament world and the other worlds. There's no way to leave. Once the passageways are opened, the outlanders will invade again. With our current power, I'm afraid we won't be able to withstand another destructive battle!"
The Blade Of The Undead sighed, then continued, "Moreover, even if we open the spatial passageways, as divine artifacts, we still won't be able to leave the Firmament world!"
"I understand."
Hearing this, Lin Xiao only nodded, but his eyes were filled with confidence.
The quest to unify the Firmament world was about to be completed. At that time, the system would definitely give him a new main quest. At that time, he would definitely have to leave this place. He had the Conversion Pill, which could help divine artifacts become divine generals. At that time, they would be able to break free from the Holy Emperor's restraints and leave the Firmament world.
However, Lin Xiao wasn't 100% sure about this. Therefore, he didn't mention this to the Blade Of The Undead, so as not to make them happy for nothing.
"Ding!
Congratulations to the host for completing the main quest: unifying the Firmament world!
The host will be rewarded with the 'Dimensional Door' and the 'Pool of Time'! "
…
Just as Lin Xiao was thinking about this, the system's notification sounded. Lin Xiao revealed an excited smile.
The Dimensional Door!
The Pool of Time!
These two rewards sounded good. Just as Lin Xiao was about to read the explanation of these two rewards, the system's notification sounded again. "Congratulations to the host for completing the main quest: unifying the Firmament world. Would the host like to accept the next main quest?
If you accept it and fail, you will lose everything you have now. If you don't accept it, you will still have everything you have now, but you will lose the system! "
This …
In the past, the system's quests were directly triggered. But this time, it gave him a chance to choose!
If he accepted the quest, he might lose everything. If he didn't accept it, he would lose the system. If Lin Xiao lost the system, could he really dominate the Firmament world?
Moreover, after experiencing so much, Lin Xiao was no longer who he used to be. Now, he was full of ambition and interest in the unknown world.
Therefore, Lin Xiao didn't hesitate at all and chose to accept it.
"Ding!
Congratulations to the host for triggering the main quest: unifying the 'Thousand Cold Realm'!
Quest details: the Thousand Cold Realm is a realm formed by the Firmament world, many small worlds nearby, and medium-sized worlds. The host must unify the 'Thousand Cold Realm' completely within ten years. Otherwise, the host will be obliterated! "
After hearing Lin Xiao's answer, the system's notification sounded immediately.
