Alternate World: I Started With Two SSS Templates

396 Transforming into the Spirit

“It’s… I… What?”

Lin Xuan was a little conflicted. The slaughter of the rats was coming to an end, and the rats hidden underground were already all wiped out. The earth-rank rat clearly had their reasons for saying that… There was a high chance that he was imprisoned here because he was against the war, or there were other reasons…

Lin Xuan did not really care about this reason. The extinction of a race, especially one from a neighboring country, could be said to be an enemy — no discord, no concord. Well, at least that was what Lin Xuan thought.

It was already an established fact that they would be wiped out, but their history should also be left on the Blue Planet. After all, they once existed, and Lin Xuan was standing at a point in time when they were about to become extinct. Perhaps he could record something for them.

At that moment, Lin Xuan’s emotions triumphed over his rationality. He wanted to leave something for the rat clan on the Blue Planet, even if it was just a little.

After hearing Lin Xuan’s question, the earth-rank rat became silent for a while. It seemed to have thought of something. Under the leadership of Io, the rat clan was told to launch an attack on Taixia Country with the other four countries. They were so ambitious that they wanted to overtake Taixia Country immediately. They didn’t even hesitate to invite an earth-rank into their home. That shouldn’t be the case!

The earth-rank Rat King was old and weak. In addition, he had been caught off guard and fell into the God of Catastrophe’s trap, resulting in the loss of faith from his people. Thus, resulting in him being imprisoned. Now, he could not use his earth-rank strength at all, and he was afraid that he would die soon.

He knew that his life was coming to an end.

“What happened to the rat clan?” The Rats King asked in a trembling voice. “They’re still alive… Right?”

Lin Xuan subconsciously ignored what he was doing and thought of the 100,000 rat warriors still on the battlefield. That was the last batch of rats. They should not have been killed yet, right?

It was possible that the rat clan could carry on!

“You could say that.”

“That’s… that’s good.”

The Rat King’s eyes were unfocused, and his voice was low. He did not believe Lin Xuan’s words at all. After all, he successfully infiltrated the secret place where he was imprisoned. That means that there will be no survivors.

He slowly told Lin Xuan about the coup, the preaching of the God of Catastrophe’s powers, the betrayal from the son, and the imprisonment…

In the end, it begged Lin Xuan with its dying breath, “P-please… I beg you… Let them go. I don’t need many, just ten or so will do. Let them work like slaves for Taixia, as long as they can survive. I beg you, I beg you!”

All its life, it had been fighting for a place for the rat clan to survive between the four countries and Taixia Country. However, his own son was his downfall. Could the rat clan really participate in the war between the four countries and Taixia Country? One mistake would lead to the extermination of the entire clan.

Lin Xuan did not say anything. The rat clan had to be destroyed. They were very compatible with the belief of the God of Catastrophe and the spread of the great Dao of calamity. Once they survived, the Io would welcome an epic level of enhancement wholeheartedly.

In fact, Taixia was still studying how to deal with the five countries and five clans, but they had not been exterminated just yet. The idea of exterminating the whole clan was Lin Xuan’s own idea. What was more terrifying was that he had the ability and strength to do so. The most terrifying thing was that he had taken action for this, and he was almost complete with the task.

Lin Xuan was silent as he quietly watched the Rat King in front of him gradually pass away.

The Rat King saw Lin Xuan’s silence and seemed to have realized something. However, it could do nothing. The chains that bound it tightly sealed its power.

In the end, it shed a silent tear and then died.

Its life was coming to an end, and Lin Xuan’s arrival had stimulated it further, causing its death to come earlier than expected.

After the Rat King died, the divine chains on its body grabbed its soul out of its body. It was a gray soul. Then, a strong information flow suddenly burst out from Io’s statues. This was the faith of the rat race!

Lin Xuan looked at this scene in shock. A dragon’s roar sounded in his soul, and the eternal and indestructible immeasurable calamity began to automatically operate, forming a protective shield around Lin Xuan. The information flow found it difficult to enter Lin Xuan’s domain.

The faith he had was not pure. It was complicated and trivial, with all kinds of prayers and demands. Io took away the purest faith and stripped the dirtiest distracting thoughts from him. He wanted to wait for the Rat King to die, capture its pure soul, and immerse it in the dirtiest distracting thoughts. He wanted to use the rat clan’s distracting thoughts to pollute the Rat King’s soul.

That’s right, the Rat King refused to believe in Io, and it had its own faith, which was the entire rat race. It wanted the rat race to live a better life and be able to survive independently on the Blue Planet… This was not an easy task, but what was admirable was that it had been working hard for this!

Io also took advantage of this to extract the dirtiest distracting thoughts from the rat clan’s faith in him. He used the Rats King’s faith to corrupt the son and finally turned the rats into his own believer!

Io’s idea was very bold. He achieved his goal through the power of belief, but he only succeeded because the belief of the Rat King was very pure. In just a few minutes, a God Saint was successfully born.

The only thing that Io, the God of Catastrophe, didn’t expect was that there was another person in the secret room, Lin Xuan.

This was a variable he didn’t account for at all.

“My Lord!”

When the Rat King became a God Saint, Io’s statue suddenly began to move. The consciousness of the God descended, looked over, and his joyful voice sounded.

It was also at that moment that Lin Xuan raised the Flame Blade in his hand, bringing with it the terrifying heaven-rank soul-slaying power. He slashed at the newly born spirit and with that, it died!

“I obey your every call! Where are you? Where have you gone? Why can’t I find you?”

Just as Io was about to speak up, he suddenly realized that the connection between him and the spirit was broken. The spirit was gone and he could not sense it anymore. He opened his eyes and saw Lin Xuan standing in front of him, looking at him with joy.

“Hi, how are you? Thank you for your gift!”

Without another word, Lin Xuan slashed down with his blade and harvested the spirit as his own!
