Light Fortress Chapter 2013 - 59: My Wish
Previously on Light Fortress...
"Three, how is that enough?"
Gu Shen said calmly, "I want to refine all the fire seeds, not leaving a single one!"
He knew Mr. Turing was teasing him, so he jokingly responded in kind.
It was well known that fire seeds have "exclusivity."
Song Ci, for accepting the token of the Light God’s Seat, could no longer gain the recognition of other fire seeds.
"Oh, is that so?"
But Turing looked at Gu Shen with eyes that had no hint of joking; he seriously scrutinized Gu Shen and said, "Do you really want to refine them all?"
"???"
Gu Shen said helplessly, "You don’t really believe what I said, do you?"
"Why not believe it? Just because others can’t do it... doesn’t mean you can’t."
Turing said lightly, "You drew the ’Fire Extinguishing Sword,’ a concept weapon capable of extinguishing even the fire seeds, which theoretically is a higher power than the fire seeds themselves. Since such a power can be used by you... then why can’t you fuse more than one fire seed? Don’t forget, these are only fragments split from the Gospel Box. The reason fire seeds have ’repulsion’ is solely because they are of the same rank, refusing to merge or unify after the Gospel Box shattered. But if a stronger force exists, such a super miracle might occur."
"..."
This time it was Gu Shen’s turn to be silent.
"Of course, no one has succeeded in such a thing yet."
Turing said, "The Iron Dome Emperor had already fused the ’War Seed,’ but it took a very long time, and he only comprehended the very small part of the ’Destruction Origin’ contained within the Hunting Spark."
"As a Divine Throne who fully merged a fire seed, trying to borrow a second one and continue understanding the ’origin’ is as hard as reaching the heavens. Because what they face is not just the repulsion generated by the ’fire seeds.’"
Gu Shen understood this principle.
The God of Destiny is fair.
Those who achieve Divine Throne status are nothing short of extraordinary, with their talent being the peak of their respective fields. To borrow other fire seeds to comprehend origins is akin to starting anew on a different path.
"What about Mr. Gu Changzhi?"
Gu Shen asked.
"Gu Changzhi’s cultivation talent is greater than that of the Iron Dome Emperor!"
Turing mused, "Had he not fused the Battle Fire, he certainly would have gained the Valley Spark’s recognition... His talent is enviable. In the Time Dojo, he took only three years to complete the comprehension of the Time Origin within the Valley Spark. Although this origin was incomplete, his comprehension speed was incredibly fast."
"Three years?"
Gu Shen was shocked.
In just three years, Mr. Gu Changzhi had exhausted the wealth within the Valley Spark?
"So... I’ve always placed Gu Changzhi first in my plans."
Turing lamented, "I believe if he had chosen to cultivate in the Time Dojo, given enough time, he would certainly surpass the achievements of the Hunter God in the past."
Gu Shen also felt regret.
Mr. Gu Changzhi... because of understanding part of the ’Time Origin,’ saw an irreversible future?
Gu Changzhi was worthy of the name "Battle," living a life truly like a blazing sun, selflessly risking everything, burning it all!
Gu Shen felt a weight on his shoulders.
He bore the legacy left by Mr. Gu Changzhi, a thousand-weight item named "Hope."
"May I see these three fire seeds?"
"Certainly."
Turing waved his sleeve, dispersing the Void Mirror, an ancient text radiance flashed by, and the Time Dojo mirror space expanded vast, where Gu Shen perceived three "stars" burning in the void depths.
One was crimson red, one emerald green, and another... burning with a dark black light.
The Molten Iron Spark, Valley Spark, and that representing ’Absolute Destruction,’ the Hunting Spark!
These three seeds were veiled by Mr. Turing’s ancient text array pattern.
Now the patterns receded.
The three seeds burned like great stars, fiercely blazing!
It was evident that these were ownerless objects!
"Five Continents has seven seeds... the Old World has a Traveler’s Spark, Ice Sea a Torch of Love."
Gu Shen looked at the three seeds before him and asked slowly, "Plus these three seeds here, that’s twelve altogether."
"Correct."
Turing said, "There are indeed twelve."
"So, are the twelve seeds the entirety of the Gospel Box’s shattered fragments?"
Gu Shen inclined his head, voicing the question he kept hidden in his heart.
He recalled the highest seat conference room, where Mr. Turing left thirteen seats!
Assuming Mr. Turing knew the number of fire seeds... each seat was reserved for a potential "Divine Throne," there should be thirteen seeds in total!
Turing gave a slight smile.
He knew well what Gu Shen truly wanted to ask: "You’re inquiring about the seats, aren’t you?"
Deep Sea was the child he painstakingly created, and each seat in the highest seat conference room of the Dead Sea Zone was significant.
The number "thirteen" was certainly not a whim.
Gu Shen held his breath waiting for Turing’s answer.
"I have used the Clone Technique, wandering at the end of the Old World for six hundred years. I even found the Hunting Spark engulfed by a Super Giant Source Material Storm... Yet, pursuing to the world’s end, I never found the so-called thirteenth fire seed. If I truly traversed every corner of this world, then I suppose there are only twelve fire seeds in existence."
