Since I've Reincarnated as the Villainess' Father, I'll Shower My Wife and Daughter in Love - Chapter 1076 - 1069: Predicament - Breaking the Deadlock

On the Ritual Altar, the entire ritual had reached its most critical phase.

Chen Yu had already locked onto four rules and was continually dragging them from the Network of Rules.

However, these four rules were clearly harder to pull compared to the one he attempted at the Sanzu River Bank, especially as these were four of the most core rules of the world.

Even with the enhancement from the Ritual Altar and the assistance of three Mage Corps, Chen Yu was still struggling.

It was like an ordinary person trying to move tons of weight; even with all his strength, it was barely possible to move them a bit.

Chen Yu had already used all his power, and was lavishly expending even his reserve of Divine Power, but this only barely managed to pull the four rules slightly from their original positions in the Network of Rules. To drag them out completely was still extremely difficult.

While he continued pulling and was gradually dragging the four rules from the Network of Rules, Chen Yu could not avoid feeling anxious.

Although all his energy and spirit were focused on seizing the world rules, this did not mean he was completely unaware of the situation outside.

Chen Yu was acutely aware that, at this moment, his wife and subordinates were battling a tremendously powerful enemy. Though they had gained the upper hand for the moment on the battlefield, they could not defeat the enemy.

Especially when Izanami, still in the Yellow Springs, let out a piercingly eerie laugh, even with the protection of the Ritual Altar, he could not help but feel a soul-shaking dread.

If not for the knowledge that Izanami was still trapped in the Yellow Springs and could not come out, Chen Yu might have felt an impulse to abandon the ritual and flee.

Chen Yu understood that this was not his true thought, but the pressure from Izanami’s laughter, derived from the dignity of a Pantheon’s original Creator God.

Even though this Creator God was dead, His Shin’i had not diminished in the slightest.

Chen Yu was now caught in anxiety, wishing to quickly drag out the four rules from the Network of Rules, but progress was slow.

Without external influences, Chen Yu could certainly pull them out slowly until the job was done.

But now, he was facing a battlefield, with his wife and subordinates resisting the powerful enemy’s assault, which made Chen Yu more eager to complete the ritual quickly, to help relieve Jounouchi Hiromi and them.

Yet try as he might, Chen Yu could not go any faster; the more anxious he became, the less efficient he was at pulling the world rules.

Faced with this situation, Chen Yu was increasingly agitated.

But now he had no other solution, for pulling the world rules was a process that had to be done slowly, with no shortcut or easy method.

“Damn it!” Chen Yu cursed in his heart, forcibly suppressing his anxiety, but the situation made it impossible to calm down.

“Master, you need to calm down! The situation isn’t as bad as you think, Mistress has stabilized the battle,” Audis’s voice echoed from the depths of Chen Yu’s soul.

At this moment, only Audis could use their soul connection to relay information to Chen Yu.

Hearing Audis, Chen Yu felt slightly more at ease but still somewhat restless, urgently hoping to affect the situation instead of idling here.

“Master, can’t you just drag down one rule first and then go for the others?” Audis suddenly suggested to Chen Yu: “When I used to drag small fish snacks, it was hard to pull four at once, so I always did it one by one since the snacks weren’t going anywhere.”

Audis voiced its query to Chen Yu: “So why don’t you try pulling them one by one, Master?”

Pull them one by one? Following Audis’s reminder, Chen Yu contemplated this possibility.

The reason he wanted to pull out all four rules at once was because if he didn’t, he would need to spend more time repeating the ritual over and over, impacting the world rules each time.

Opportunities like this to seize the world rules were rare; for the world rules to tremble and reveal enough of a flaw to seize its deep core rules, significant disruption to the world’s operation was needed.

Chen Xin took advantage of overseeing the breaking of life and death boundaries to influence the world rules and thus have this opportunity.

If he missed this chance, he did not know how long he would have to wait to do it again.

But now, breaking the deadlock required pulling them one by one, which was the only way he could think of.

What to do? Chen Yu found himself in a deeper dilemma.

Yet time was not on Chen Yu’s side for deliberation; he had no idea how the battlefield looked, but it surely was not easy.

If someone could help relieve the burden, even to hold the four world rules in place so he could drag out one first, it would solve the problem.

However, everyone was already tied up fighting the Yomotsu Oni Tribe’s invasion, and there was no spare hand, not to mention this ritual wasn’t designed for two people working together. Only one could conduct the ceremony.

After all, the original ritual designer never intended two people to ascend to divinity jointly or for someone like Chen Yu to pull multiple rules simultaneously; who would share a divine seat?

Only by splitting Chen Yu into two, making him a dual-body soul, would it be possible.

Contemplating splitting himself in two, an inspiration flashed through Chen Yu’s mind, and he communicated through his soul connection to Audis: “Audis, come to my side!”

As Chen Yu’s Magic pet, and with their soul connection, Audis already knew Chen Yu’s thoughts and, without hesitation, appeared right beside him.

Indeed, Chen Yu couldn’t split himself in two, but his Magic pet could be considered another part of him.

“Audis, help me hold onto the other three rules while I pull one out!” Chen Yu conveyed his intentions to Audis, while also dividing the power gathered at the Ritual Altar.

The magic power from the Dragon Witch Ghost Mage Corps and the Dragon Transformation Mage Corps, as well as the power harnessed by the Ritual Altar, was directed to Audis, enabling the small cat to hold onto the three rules, preventing them from sliding back into the Network of Rules.

As for Chen Yu, he ignited his soul, obtaining strong power for a short time by burning his soul, using it to pull out the one rule he selected!
