Chapter 808 Rules covered by the concept of symbol
Bai Xuan's face did not show the expression that Red Skull wanted to see. He just glanced at him lightly and walked calmly into the passage.
After walking about ten to twenty meters, a huge altar appeared in front of Bai Xuan, and behind the altar was an abyss.
The Red Skull was still floating beside Bai Xuan, staring at him, wanting to see on his face the pain of the soul that sacrificed his beloved in order to gain the recognition of the Soul Stone.
This is what he has been looking forward to most since he called himself the guide of the Soul Stone.
He believed that this hometown native could also give him the most exciting performance.
Facing the Red Skull's gaze, Bai Xuan said calmly:
"You are too confident in the power of the soul gem, but you forget that the soul gem is just an object after all."
"The rules it sets can bind the weak and make them abide by them; but for the strong, they are just a snap."
"It's just that for those strong people, the power of the soul gem is meaningless to them."
Infinity stones are the most precious things in this world, but this does not mean that everyone must abide by the rules set by the soul stones; as long as you have the ability to override them.
No one did this in the past, just because for those powerful people, the infinite stones are meaningless to them. They themselves are the supreme and do not need external objects at all.
"Ridiculous words."
The Red Skull was briefly stunned when he heard Bai Xuan's words, but after the shock, he became sarcastic.
"Are you saying that you can not abide by the rules set by the Soul Stone and forcefully obtain the recognition of the Soul Stone?"
"Who do you think you are?"
"Self-deception will not give you..."
As if he had seen something incredible, Red Skull's words suddenly stopped, and his whole person fell into a daze.
In his disbelieving gaze, Bai Xuan slowly raised his hand, and countless golden runes appeared in the void, locking and sealing the space.
Bai Xuan didn't know whether the soul gem would escape when it sensed danger, but just in case, he eliminated the possibility of the soul gem escaping from the beginning.
As the guide chosen by the Soul Gem, although the Red Skull is a soul, he is no longer a human being, so he can see those mysterious golden runes in the void.
Any one of them brought him indescribable majesty and fear. It seemed that what he was looking at was not a rune, but the entire celestial body.
But in his cognition, there was no information about the runes he saw in front of him. He just watched blankly as these golden runes emerged from the void and then merged into another space.
"What are you doing?"
Red Skull asked in a daze and confusion.
"Seal all space on this planet, including the gaps to other dimensions."
Bai Xuan said lightly.
"What's the meaning?"
Red Skull seemed to be a little confused, and after reacting, he said incredulously:
"Are you worried that the soul gem will escape?!"
"Um."
After hearing Bai Xuan's indifferent voice, the Red Skull fell into silence at this moment, not knowing what words to use to describe his current weirdness.
In his mind, there is no doubt that the soul gem is the highest in the world.
No one is truly qualified to own the Soul Stone, they are just cooperating with the Soul Stone.
At the price of your true love, you can exchange for the right to use soul gems.
But the man in front of him thinks that he can forcefully obtain the approval of the soul gem without obeying the rules set by it. He actually blocks the surrounding space and even the dimensional gap, just because he is worried that the soul gem will escape?
What should he say?
In his decades of life, the man in front of him was the most confident person he had ever seen, and could even be said to be arrogant.
Even that guy...
Red Skull stopped thinking. Now he doesn't want to recall those old memories, or that man.
After a moment of silence, Red Skull looked at Bai Xuan and asked:
“Does this make sense?”
"Do you really think the Soul Stone will run away because of you?"
"It's just a possibility."
Bai Xuan said lightly.
Compared to the soul gems that would flee because they sensed danger, he preferred that the soul gems would actively stay where they were.
After all, judging from the plot, the Soul Stone was destroyed by Thanos in the end.
If the soul gem really has the fear of death in life, it will not be destroyed so easily.
Of course, the process and results of Thanos' destruction of the Infinity Stones and the transformation of the Infinity Stones into pure rules by the Son of Heaven are not necessarily the same concept.
In the former, the soul gem may still have the possibility of recovery, but in the latter, there is absolutely no chance.
"If you are so confident, why do you want to get the soul gem?"
There was confusion in Red Skull's eyes.
If Bai Xuan really has such strength, then as he said, the soul gem is of no help to him, so why would he obtain the soul gem?
"For the concept it symbolizes, for the rules it encompasses."
Red Skull did not understand this reason, but he felt the difference between Bai Xuan and those who sought the power of the infinite stones in the past.
What he is looking for is not the power brought by the infinite stones, but something deeper.
Concepts, rules...
Red Skull said nothing, and Bai Xuan ignored Red Skull.
The guide of the soul gem is just a nice word, in fact he is just a slave controlled by the soul gem.
It was just because of something special about him that the Soul Stone chose him.
It's just a soul. Bai Xuan can easily wipe out his existence, but even killing him is meaningless.
The Soul Stone can create a bunch of identical Red Skull souls at will, and they will all think that they are the real Red Skull, and that his soul has already been controlled by the Soul Stone.
Bai Xuan walked to the altar. Endless runes were surging in the void. [Natural Authority] and [Son of Heaven] were analyzing everything in this space.
The breeze, rocks, air, souls... everything was turned into memorable data in Bai Xuan's mind, and a model of Vormir and even the surrounding time and space was formed in his mind.
He also knew the hidden location of the Soul Gem.
A smile appeared on the corner of Bai Xuan's mouth, and he stretched out his right hand, as if penetrating reality and illusion and pouring into an unknown time, space and dimension, constantly changing his position in it, trying to hold his hidden atoms.
"Got you......."
In the eyes of the Red Skull, he saw the giant tree that penetrated the sky and the earth emerging from behind Bai Xuan, as well as a vibrant world that cannot be described in words.
