2580 The True Sleeper’s Revival!
Eighth Page Apoptosis knew that he would immediately be exposed if he lied after taking in the Engulfing Flames Heart Mushroom’s spores.
The Engulfing Flames Heart Mushroom’s Honesty Reflects the Heart was meant to differentiate truths from lies.
After Eighth Page Apoptosis made his stance known, Lin Yuan removed the spikes from Eighth Page Apoptosis’ body.
He raised his hand and released a green light that landed on Eighth Page Apoptosis’ body.
The two spikes had passed through Eighth Page Apoptosis’ body and broken some of his bones on top of damaging his organs.
Otherwise, given Eighth Page Apoptosis’ endurance, he would not have let out a groan of pain.
Because of the sacred source lifeform he had contracted, it was difficult for Eighth Page Apoptosis to recover from his injuries. This was one of the negative side effects of his sacred source lifeform.
But Lin Yuan not only healed his injuries but also recovered his shattered bones and organs.
This type of healing was not the same as the regular type that only healed surface injuries. It tapped into the genetic model, enabling damaged organs and bones to regrow.
Eighth Page Apoptosis looked deeply into Lin Yuan’s eyes and let out a breath of relief. Lin Yuan’s action was proof that Eighth Page Apoptosis had managed to earn some of his trust.
“I want to know everything about Tower Canon. I won’t ask you anything first. Tell me everything you think is important. If I have less than five questions for you once you’re done, I will allow you to live and join me.”
On the eighth page, Apoptosis complained to himself, How am I supposed to know what Lin Yuan wants to know? I can only share what I know to be true. If I provide information I’m unsure of, it will be like lying to him. He’s the one who decides what questions he wants to ask. Even if he gets all the answers he seeks from my initial statement, he can add a few more questions at the end, and that might be the end of my life.
Eighth Page Apoptosis pondered over this for a moment. He felt that in spite of his position as one of Tower Canon’s Eight Pages, he did not have any grudge against the Radiance Federation.
He was a Class 5 Creation Master and posed significant value. The other party had to consider their own profits.
“Please give me ten minutes to organize my thoughts. Once I’ve organized my thoughts, I will immediately tell you everything!”
Lin Yuan maneuvered the Abyss Red Lotus’ stalks into a chair and sat down on it. He took out a cup of juice from his ring and idly started sipping on it.
He knew it would take a long time for Eighth Page Apoptosis to reveal everything he knew about Tower Canon. There was no way that two days would be enough!
Lin Yuan drinking juice seemed out of place to Eighth Page Apoptosis. He felt that it would be more reasonable for Lin Yuan to be drinking a cup of blood instead.
From the way that Lin Yuan acted since their meeting, Eighth Page Apoptosis felt that Lin Yuan was more demonic than the actual devils from the Demon Church!
Lin Yuan did not know that Eighth Page Apoptosis had this image of him.
But if he did know, he would understand why Eighth Page Apoptosis saw him in such a way. It would be like a vicious killer eating cotton candy before he prepared to strike.
Eighth Page Apoptosis tried to cover all his bases and organize his thoughts before he began telling Lin Yuan about Tower Canon in a structured manner.
Lin Yuan listened quietly and instructed Genius to record everything that Eighth Page Apoptosis said.
He sat there listening for two days.
When Eighth Page Apoptosis was certain he had said everything he could, and with his mouth dry, he finally stopped.
“Lord, I have said everything that I can.”
As part of his past two days of speaking, Eighth Page Apoptosis expressed his position and clarified his stance. He even changed the way he addressed Lin Yuan.
After the past two days, Lin Yuan now had an understanding of Tower Canon from the moment of Eighth Page Apoptosis’ joining, to his experiences, and their activities over recent years.
However, he still wanted to know about some things that had not been mentioned.
Lin Yuan frowned and asked his first question, “Tower Canon has a plan called the Sleeper’s Revival. Why haven’t you told me about it?”
Eighth Page Apoptosis had expected this question from Lin Yuan and hurriedly said, “Lord, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you about the Sleeper’s Revival, but you are also aware of my circumstance in Tower Canon.
“What I know about the Sleeper’s Revival might not be accurate. But I can tell you my version of it! I didn’t tell you things that I am unsure of. As part of answering this question, I can also tell you my unverified guesses about Tower Canon!”
Eighth Page Apoptosis was terrified that Lin Yuan would ask him about everything he was unsure of. If he did, it would definitely amount to more than five questions!
Lin Yuan nodded to signal Eighth Page Apoptosis to speak freely.
Eighth Page Apoptosis relaxed and said, “Lord, the Sleeper’s Revival Plan is very evil. It involves using the Pulsing Fountain, a pinnacle 11 Stars precious instrument that is on the brink of reaching 12 Stars, to strip willpowers, laws, worlds, Immortal bodies, hearts, and the like and turn them into death aura. The death aura will be used to activate ley lines to trigger the revival of the dead.”
Lin Yuan frowned. So this was what the Sleeper’s Revival meant! This was completely different from what he had expected.
Lin Yuan had assumed that the Sleeper’s Revival only involved the current Eight Pages reviving the first batch of Eight Pages.
Based on the information gathered by the Moon Empress and the records of the Heavenly Family Cottage, he could be certain that First Page Crimson was the initial First Page of Tower Canon, who held the position thousands of years ago.
But his guess did not match with what Tower Canon’s current Eighth Page said.
“What does it mean to use the dead aura to trigger the revival of the dead? Does it refer to reviving the dead who have been buried but have yet to decompose?”
Lin Yuan thought, If my guess is right, the main world is about to face a disaster. The federations that store complete corpses will have to face the might of an army of the undead.
Eighth Page Apoptosis first nodded before shaking his head. “Lord, your understanding isn’t exactly correct.”
