Chapter 1273: Chapter 836 What is an Elemental Perpetual Motion Machine Chapter 1273: Chapter 836 What is an Elemental Perpetual Motion Machine “Give me a bit.” Abyssal Big Mouth pointed at the Ancient Black Stone in Ange’s hand.

Ange flicked a grain-of-rice-sized piece toward it, causing Abyssal Big Mouth to frown and complain, “That’s a bit ‘too little,’ don’t you think?”

Ange couldn’t be bothered with its complaints and casually stuffed the rest back into the Divine Realm.

While Abyssal Big Mouth was examining the Ancient Black Stone, Anthony seized the opportunity to ask, “From your tone, it seems like you recognize these stones. What are they? Bodies of the Ancient Godlight?”

Abyssal Big Mouth nodded, “You could say that. Where did you find them?”

Anthony responded, “On a drifting small meteorite, but how do you know it’s the body of the Ancient Godlight? Couldn’t it just be a naturally formed stone?”

Abyssal Big Mouth glanced up at him, and Anthony immediately realized he had asked the wrong question. Clearly, these black stones were not naturally formed, which is why Abyssal Big Mouth had that expression.

However, Abyssal Big Mouth said, “You could say they’re naturally formed, just like the Divine Wood floating all around the void, naturally formed by the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms.”

Yes, the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms and the Ancient Godlight are just parts of nature, aren’t they? Their remnants are simply ‘naturally’ formed.

“These black stones are remnants of the Ancient Godlight after it burned, so they can only be obtained from its body. Where did you dig up its body?” asked Abyssal Big Mouth.

“We didn’t,” Anthony maintained his composure as he replied. “As we said, found on a small drifting meteorite, just this one piece, and it was gone after use. Wasn’t the Ancient Godlight supposed to have exploded? How could there be a body?”

Although Abyssal Big Mouth was a Primordial God, it didn’t possess the ability to see through people’s hearts. Moreover, even if it could, it would be useless against someone like Anthony, an old Godman who could keep his heart as still as ancient waters, impenetrable even to the Eye of Truth.

Abyssal Big Mouth gave Anthony a doubtful look, not discerning anything, and finally said, “Even if it exploded into pieces, each piece would be bigger than an ordinary plane fragment. If all you found was this much, it doesn’t even count as debris.”

“Ah? Doesn’t count as debris? I thought it was quite a lot, especially since our Lord can simply rub his hands and release an unprecedented…” Anthony carefully recalled before continuing, “Super Invincible Void Endless Trillions Degree Hot Dazzling Wave of Ancient Godlight.”

“I wonder if rubbing the whole thing together could make Lord Abyss grunt?” Anthony asked with a smile.

Abyssal Big Mouth’s face twitched, and it said gloomily, “I would shout very loudly.”

“By the way, these black stones also have the effect of corrupting consciousness. Holding it like that, won’t you get corrupted?” Anthony asked as if he had just thought of it.

Of course, he hadn’t just thought of it–it was a deliberate probe for more information.

This was merely a clone of Abyssal Big Mouth, and corruption wasn’t a fear; moreover, a Primordial God couldn’t possibly be contaminated just by touching a black stone.

If the black stone’s corruptive power was really that strong, then all of them would have been corrupted already, since everyone had touched the black stones when they first found them.

Abyssal Big Mouth dismissively said, “Just Elemental Affinity, it’s fine as long as there’s no prolonged contact. Isolate it, or ignite it.”

While speaking, Abyssal Big Mouth demonstrated how it handled the black stone, with a layer of isolating energy between its fingers and the stone, ensuring it didn’t make direct contact.

Anthony nodded, “So, it’s Elemental Affinity? What is Elemental Affinity?”

Abyssal Big Mouth felt like vomiting blood, not understanding why you nodded? It didn’t know that Anthony nodded because he had extracted more information.

Thinking over, Abyssal Big Mouth said, “I heard from Alba that creatures in the plane possess a power called magic, which is using the elements within the plane to achieve work, thereby generating power beyond the species’ limits, right? Can you do it?”

Anthony gestured with his fingers that tiny bit and humbly said, “I know a little.”

“That’s good, you know magic, then you should know about Elemental Affinity which is to assimilate the body with elements, producing a higher affinity that can control elements more conveniently. Black Stone also has this effect, but it assimilates affinity actively with consciousness,” said Abyssal Big Mouth.

In fact, when they heard about ‘assimilating the body with elements,’ Ange, Anthony, and Negriss had already realized why the Chaotic Consciousness was replaced by the Void Will – isn’t this Elemental Deprivation in magic?

Higher-ranked magicians, with a greater affinity for elements, can more easily control the nearby elements when they are in the same space as junior magicians.

If the strength gap is too large, junior magicians might not even be able to grab the elements, hence unable to perform magic. This phenomenon is called Elemental Deprivation, and if a high-ranking magician deliberately does this, it’s called Magic – Elemental Dispersion.

The Chaotic Consciousness, due to insufficient affinity to the body, had its control deprived by the Void Will, and this affinity relies on Black Stone as the medium.

“Indeed, it is it.” Anthony was even more certain now; that projected consciousness was indeed Void Will, because Black Stone is the remnant of the Ancient Godlight, and Void Will is a consciousness born from the Ancient Godlight. What else could have a higher affinity with Black Stone?

After a long talk, Abyssal Big Mouth was forthcoming with information and showed a willingness for good cooperation. It also answered many of the group’s doubts about the Void.

“They are trapped in the Absolute Dark Realm, which is the world of the Dark Origin. They would have been devoured by the absolute darkness, but because of you,” Abyssal Big Mouth looked at Ange, “because of your revived Little Dark Source, they weren’t devoured, and won’t die for the moment.”

At this point, Abyssal Big Mouth suddenly sneered, “Little Dark Source still wants to wrestle control of the absolute dark, huh, it overlooks the huge gap between energy levels, feeling like a Little Eye Demon holding a key to unlock the treasury door, but then someone uses a finger to hold it back, even if it unlocks the door, it can’t pull it open.”

Anthony thoughtfully nodded, “So what we need to do is give it power to help it pull open the door?”

Abyssal Big Mouth clapped its hands, “Right, give it power, help it pull open the door. It’s Dark Origin, it needs the power of darkness.”

At this point, Abyssal Big Mouth suddenly opened a mouth three meters in diameter, bigger than its current size, like a trumpet suddenly blooming, very scary.

Immediately, it spat out a black vortex, about a meter in diameter. As soon as the vortex appeared, it devoured all the light within two meters nearby.

Abyssal Big Mouth returned to normal, looking somewhat pained at the small black vortex, saying, “The method I can think of is to fill this Abyss Ball with dark power and then find a way to send it inside the Absolute Dark Realm. The Abyss Ball is provided by me, how to fill it is up to you, whether you steal, rob, or buy to fill it.”

Anthony and Negriss looked at each other, “Is that it?”

“Hehe, if you can fill it in half a year, we’ll talk then, don’t drag it on too long. I don’t know how long Little Dark Source can last; if it dies, the Undead Ruler will just have to endure hard against the dark realm,” Abyssal Big Mouth said disdainfully.

To get a bit of dark power was easy, but to collect a large amount and fill the Abyss besides Dark Origin itself, Abyssal Big Mouth didn’t know who else could manage.

Anthony and Negriss simultaneously turned to look at Ange, who nodded.

Negriss suddenly spoke with confidence, hands on hips, “Heh heh, let you see what’s called an Elemental Perpetual Motion Machine.”

“Just you?” Abyssal Big Mouth frowned.

Negriss, hands on hips and full of pride, floated aside, stepping aside to reveal Ange behind him.
