Chapter 6104: Empty Motivation
âSo you ran here right away.â Li Qiye said.
âThe tribulation didnât trap me at the start.â He smiled wryly.
âItâs because you became a ghost, hence the suppression.â Li Qiye said.
âThat is correct, Progenitor.â He sighed and admitted.
As a True Emperor, he still crafted weapons at the progenitorial level - a testament to his skills. Alas, he was not satisfied with this and thought he could still create something stronger.
He came to Forest of Thoughts not for a transaction but a takeover of a temple. It had a different name once but the previous temple lord lost to him. With that, he relied on the innate resources of the temple and created multiple weapons, culminating in Heavenly Wrath.
It had no classification because its power didnât come from imperial or progenitorial laws. It wielded the might of the tribulations, able to destroy Grand Emperors and desolate gods.
At first, he added himself to the weapon to make it stronger, becoming a wielder of the tribulations. Unfortunately, the mysteries of heaven were beyond his grasp.
His transgression was punished and the heavenly laws trapped him within the weapon. Although he survived, he was subjected to unceasing agony. The tribulation power always assaulted his body and mind.
He looked down at the maelstrom in his chest and thought he had created an incredible weapon. From the previous perspective, this was the desirable outcome. Alas, he wanted to escape Heavenly Wrath and the temple now.
âMany think they are willing to pay any price to accomplish their goal. This is empty motivation since when the time comes, they will choose to avoid difficulties and pain.â Li Qiye said.
âYes, Progenitor.â He sighed: âNo one can handle endless agony.â
âWhat if you can keep everything including Heavenly Wrath without the added torture?â Li Qiye asked.
âIt would be the best possible outcome, I couldnât ask for more.â He said.
Li Qiye smiled after hearing this.
âPlease bestow me your mercy, Progenitor.â He immediately prostrated and saw hope.
âCoincidentally enough, fate does connect me to your clan, the Bingchi.â Li Qiye said.
âPlease, Progenitor.â He continued kneeling and begged, unable to handle the unending torment.
