Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game

The object left by the Yama God, the "one kind" in Lin Xun’s pocket, including the "one sprout" obtained by Emperor Wu, should all have the function of purifying Malice and shielding the divine secrets.

With the nurturing effect of the "one sprout," Emperor Wu would never fall into Extreme Evil, provided he didn’t actively seek his own destruction by calling upon the Evil Buddha.

However, powerful as the effect of shielding the divine secrets might be, it couldn’t make oneself invisible when standing right in front of an enemy, thus the Great Bodhisattva stated that after falling into Extreme Evil, Emperor Wu must not call upon him.

When Xinde’s army of Extreme Evil was approaching the city, the most correct course of action at that moment should have been to take the "one sprout" and flee.

However, Emperor Wu obviously refused to abandon Vermilion and chose to take the risk once again.

There was a question after Emperor Wu turned dark.

As Emperor Wu progressively deepened in his dark transformation, becoming an Proxy of the Evil God and wishing to head to Penglai to eliminate the Daoist Immortal Venerable posed no issue.

This was a consistent tactic of the Evil God, turning the sovereign of a nation into his proxy, then beginning to fish right at their doorstep.

After turning dark, Emperor Wu forgetting the effects and origins of the "one sprout," and even failing to notice previous notes about the "one sprout" in his letters wasn’t an issue either.

The divine item left by the Yama God had the effect of shielding divine secrets; if writing in a diary could expose this object, then both the sprout and the kind would be rather poor in quality.

Whether it was Emperor Wu or the Great Bodhisattva, anyone who fell into Extreme Evil, even if they possessed this object, could not detect anything unusual, only feeling displeasure at its sight and discomfort in wearing it, subconsciously wanting to distance themselves or discard the object.
