The sun sets.
There is only a long, broad, crimson arc left on the horizon.
The holder of the ancient dragon bloodline, a young dragon with legendary qualifications appointed by Count Radcliffe, Hei, is currently lying in the vast wilderness to the west of the Black Forest Fortress, his body is weak, his eyes are staring at the sky, Watch the fading light of the sunset with the corner of your eye and think about life.
"I was supposed to be... just a war horse."
After a whole day of high-intensity training in a high-gravity environment, the black dragon girl, who no longer wanted to move at all, couldn't help but feel sad: "Even if I change my bloodline, I am still a dragon, right?"
"Obviously just sleeping can improve your strength, why do I have to work out so hard every day?!"
"And the master never rides me - what's the use of improving my strength?! He flies faster than me, carries a higher weight than me, is stronger than me, and can see further than me. Is it really meaningful for me to exercise... Ah , the more I think about it, the more annoyed I am, I’m so angry!”
"Ding dong~"
Just when the black dragon girl fell into the routine of self-doubt and self-loathing at the end of every day's training, with a clear ding-dong sound, a column of water fell from the sky, pouring on the black man who was radiating high heat and burning the surrounding earth. On the body.
The sound of rising water vapor sounded, and a ball of light fell happily from the sky, submerged into the steam, and then accurately got stuck between the two corners of the black dragon girl.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The cool breath repaired the injured body part of the black dragon girl. Hei suddenly was deeply moved. Then he struggled to get up, took off Xiaoguang from the top of his head (Xiaoguang: Ding dong?), held it in his arms and rubbed it: "And the feeling is still good. So great!”
Some time has passed since Xiaoguang joined the Lord's Mansion family.
As everyone, especially Joshua, improved in strength, Xiaoguang's original mysterious existence form and survival mode gradually began to be able to be analyzed.
Among them, the answer has been obtained as to what Xiaoguang relies on to maintain his existence, and why he especially likes to be with Hei.
As a high-purity energy aggregate, Xiaoguang is absorbing free energy from the outside world all the time. Just like a goblin, it pays special attention to high-energy environments. Generally speaking, when Joshua is present, it will follow the warrior and use the opponent's It feeds on the power of high-purity steel emanating from its body. If the warrior is not present, it will choose the black dragon girl, the only entity among the people in the Lord's Mansion who can emit energy rather than absorb it, as its food source.
Because of the awakened black dragon bloodline, even if Hei is controlling it carefully, he will involuntarily release a large amount of high-energy energy. This is Xiaoguang's favorite energy source. Of course, it is not that it can only go in and out, like Hei's exercise Even if it goes too far, Xiaoguang will also give thoughtful feedback and treatment, just like an angel.
However, not to mention the keen others in the Lord's Mansion, even Hei, who was a bit dull and often held Xiaoguang and rubbed him in his arms, couldn't help but feel a little doubt after living together for a long time and witnessing each other's growth.
Black raised the ball of light in his hand and pointed it at the last remaining light of the setting sun at the new end of the horizon. The light silver brilliance and the deep sunset red intertwined, making the structure at its core clearer.
It can be seen that inside that almost solid energy barrier, a small silver vortex is rotating at the core of Xiaoguang.
"Xiaoguang, why is your form... so familiar?"
"Why is your form... so familiar?"
Starfall 840, on the afternoon of April 20, the Blood Moon Abyss.
Joshua stood outside the blood moon that was about to turn into the sun, and whispered to himself: "Not only that, the essence of your existence is also so familiar... all the souls, all civilizations, and all races of life in the world Geometry, coupled with the resentment that civilization was deceived and led to the destruction of the world - look at this huge whirlpool of souls, light, you say.
"You and the Evil God are so similar."
In the Blood Moon Abyss, on the huge floating continent, a blood-colored towering tree is growing vigorously.
Nearly a quarter of the Lake of Blood, which is so vast that it is almost an ocean, is covered by this mutated Tree of Life. Its huge root system fixes the structure of the continent, and sometimes the falling leaves cause ripples in the Blood Sea.
You can see that there is a bright sun hanging directly above the giant tree, providing majestic energy and light and heat all the time.
Joshua stood in the center of the giant tree and the sun - the blood moon. Facing the humanoid figure of light who didn't seem to understand what he was saying, the warrior smiled helplessly.
"That's right, you haven't seen the evil god, and you don't understand what I'm talking about."
He whispered to himself, and then returned to his normal expression: "And, rather than saying that you are similar to the evil god, it is better to say that the evil god is similar to you."
The predecessor of the Blood Moon Abyss, the world of Hileye, was an empty island world. Because the original sun gradually dimmed and extinguished, civilization was almost cut off and the race was on the verge of extinction. In desperation, they sent out a void battleship in an attempt to obtain assistance from other civilizations. If that didn't work, they could transport some seeds of civilization to avoid the end of the entire race.
Their luck can be said to be good or bad. They did meet the 'friendly' void civilization and got the other party's method to avoid the crisis. Because they were weak, the Hileye civilization had no choice but to follow that The seemingly gentle approach of the void civilization begins a ritual to awaken the sun.
Then, they 'become' the sun.
According to the information that Joshua collected later, what the Hilleye civilization encountered at the beginning should be the black mist. The black mist was not conquered by violence all the time. It was just a simple conspiracy that made a Civilization destroyed itself, forming a ball of bloody stars with pure energy. But for some reason, Black Mist did not recover the energy soul aggregate of this civilization. It was not until thousands of years later that the five-color dragon balls and the devil took a fancy to this powerful energy aggregate and prepared to borrow its power to break through the relationship with Mike. The time and space passage in Luofu's world completed the abyss ritual and destroyed the Seven Sacred Mountains, the biggest thorn in their eyes.
Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the story that follows. Joshua's arrival seemed to ignite the bloody stars that had been silent for thousands of years, causing the aggregation of "all the souls, all the energy, and all the lives in the world" to re-birth will and transform. It became the prototype of the will of the world.
But in fact, this process is quite different from the serious birth process of Steel Python.
After all, Joshua is also a person who often gathers and chats with Kallis and other Steel Pythons. He naturally knows that the birth of Steel Pythons first needs an intelligent civilization as the foundation. If this is not possible, the dead souls can also be used - but Not to mention intelligent life in the world of Hilleye, even the souls of the dead are condensed into one body. Logically speaking, the Steel Python would not be born so quickly.
But facts speak louder than words. Even if Xiaoguang appears, can we still pretend that it doesn't exist? While Carlisu was deep in thought, thinking about whether there were many possibilities for the birth of the Steel Python, Joshua had a vague guess in his mind.
That is Xiao Guang's true form. In fact, it is not the orthodox Steel Python, but another strange existence.
Think about it carefully, the destruction of civilization, the demise of the world, the resentment of being deceived and the despair of being forced to merge... Coupled with the gathering of infinite energy and souls, this process and these conditions are exactly the same as the evil god!
Of course, Xiaoguang is not an evil god, Joshua is sure of this.
The only difference between Xiao Guang and the Evil God is that a mysterious force may have intervened in the birth of the Evil God, while Xiao Guang's birth was just a 'similarity' caused by chance... However, in this world, similarity alone is enough. .
Even ordinary people without magic power, if they draw words that are exactly the same as the runes, then the words will also have magical power. Even ordinary people without fighting spirit, if the life energy in the body naturally follows certain steps and trajectories. If it works, he can still use fighting skills.
Magic spells and martial arts movements are all tools created to be 'similar' to the steps of using real extraordinary power, because as long as the method is the same, even if the user is unintentional, it will produce the same result.
Xiaoguang... It is very likely that due to the accidental birth, there is no chaos, resentment and despair have been purified, and no destruction or war instructions have been written, pure white, pure and natural...
Evil god.
But this statement is too weird - can an evil god who has no chaos, no resentment or despair, and will not destroy civilization, be called an evil god? Even things like the Will of the Abyss might be more similar.
Rather, it is just resurrected from the identity of the undead in the world. It turns into the sun to shine on the world and revives the Blood Moon Abyss. This is simply reincarnation within the world.
Xiaoguang's body, the light humanoid, did not understand what Joshua said, nor did he care about those words. It just happily separated a ray of light and shone on the top of Joshua's head.
"Thank you." Feeling that the energy around him was rapidly becoming denser, Joshua raised his head and smiled helplessly: "But there's no need, I'm just here to visit you."
But then again, so far, Joshua has never seen a normal world, the situation after normal destruction.
There is no such record even in the large information database of the Age of Glory.
Some time ago, the warrior even specifically asked the Steel Python Kallis, and the other party's answer also stated that it was not clear.
"How long is the lifespan of a world? If it were not for the existence of civilization, it would not be surprising for an ordinary primitive life world to exist for hundreds of millions or billions of years, or even until the stars burn out."
This is what Kallis said. At that time, the Steel Python was wrapped around the warrior's shoulders and said helplessly: "Actually, some dead worlds were born like this. Their suns burned out, so the original life also Therefore, it is extinct - but any world where the Steel Python exists, or in other words, where there is civilization, will not be able to wait until that day, and will be destroyed due to war or other reasons... Most of those abyssal worlds were born because of this."
In a normal world with intelligent life, no one knows the outcome after natural death.
According to Joshua's speculation, the final outcome of the world should be that it decomposes itself and becomes one of the energy sources of the great demonic tide. The power of steel drifts away, and finally gathers somewhere, like a whirlpool in the void, until it is reborn into the world. Moment.
But now it seems that maybe the ending of such a world will be the same as that of Xiaoguang, where all the lives and souls that once existed will merge into one, turn into the sun again, and start another reincarnation.
Just like [eternity], there is no need to experience destruction and rebirth, it just starts over and over again, continuing forever and ever.
"[Eternity]... Haha, is this considered eternity?" Joshua couldn't help but laugh because of his own thinking: "How could I have such an idea? If even this kind of reincarnation is called eternity, then what in the world does it count? What about eternity? Even the memory of the soul has been cleared and changed. When it comes to this, even the evil god is inferior."
It is also an existence that was born from countless souls mixed with the will of the world. The evil god at least still holds the memories that all souls had at the beginning. Those memories are its information barrier and the basic unit of its core structure.
If we have to talk about eternity, the evil god who is almost immortal, almost indestructible, and very difficult to kill, may barely be regarded as 'half eternity'. It can last forever in the world, longer than the existence of the world, but it cannot live forever and ever.
Of course, even so, it is closer to [eternity] than any existence in the world.
There was always a lingering sense of familiarity and déjà vu in Joshua's heart, but for a while he couldn't think of any connection, so he simply gave up thinking about it and entered the Blood Moon Abyss. Played with the light figure for a while, making him happy.
In any case, no matter how similar the essence of Xiaoguang is to the evil god, now it is the light and heat of a newborn world, representing a new future and hope.
If possible, Joshua really wanted to purify the other evil gods into what Xiaoguang is now. Although this was impossible and there was no way to do it, he still couldn't help but think about it... Those The evil god was born out of resentment, despair and sorrow. Even if it is destroyed, it will not eliminate the fog and haze shrouding the world. Only by turning them into fire again can they illuminate this dark multiverse again.
Transforming into a gigantic thousand-meter giant, the warrior stroked the light-like long hair of the human form of light. The soft touch made him reveal a relaxed smile.
But suddenly, Joshua's smile froze.
Wait.
He thought so. Wait a moment.
- If we say that the steps for the formation of the evil god are similar to Xiaoguang's experience, they both condense the soul, life and energy of a world to form a huge entity.
So.
The lowest level of the legendary abyss, that place composed of the steel fragments of countless worlds, the despair, pain and resentment of countless destroyed worlds, and the gathering of endless souls of the lost... that unprecedented place of Nirvana. '.
There, the darkest place of eternal destruction in the entire galaxy, the place of decisive battle between the sage and the evil god of abundance.
Isn't it the largest and most likely breeding ground for the birth of evil gods? !
Ask for a monthly pass at the beginning of the month! !
