The God of Order and Destruction - Merlin. Before Joshua saw the other person in human form, he only speculated based on his priesthood, thinking that the other person might be a majestic man like a marble sculpture, or maybe... An old man with supreme majesty.
But what is surprising is that the human form of Mielu, who possesses the two high-level priesthoods of 'Order' and 'Destruction', is that of a young boy who is not very old and looks to be a mixture of humans and elves.
Why show it to others in this form? Why are order and destruction conflated? What kind of 'logic' does this god have to implement his own order
Joshua still doesn't know the answers to these questions, but Mielu is already leaving.
—This is the center of the lowest level of the world’s galaxy.
What is the most terrifying environment for life in the multiverse? It is not a world-creating star cluster with agitated energy like the Void Vortex. As long as you reach the legendary realm, although you can't walk freely there, it is not difficult to move; nor is it the chaotic lair where the evil god lives. Of course, the evil god is terrifying and terrifying, and the chaos family members are even more extinct. Kill all living beings in civilization, but if the power is enough, the evil god is just a slightly more powerful enemy, similar to the tiger living at the door.
It is not all tangible and qualitative things that make all living beings, even legendary powerful men and gods, fearful. Even if the nebula is activated and becomes a creature as huge as a galaxy, it is just a bigger target, a worthy one. A challenging target, a highly valuable research object, worthy of awe, but no need to fear.
The real fear that all living beings can feel and understand is actually nothingness.
Just like what Joshua and the gods see now.
After the 666th level of the abyss, the lower part of the abyss is an absolutely dead world where even demons would not live in the past. Within this realm, most of all the worlds have collapsed, and even the world barrier has been destroyed. The wreckage, the originally calmly flowing Styx, is now flying violently through the worlds, absorbing the last fire and steel contained in these wreckage, and then transmitting it to the bottom of the abyss.
That's how it should be.
But now, except for the mother world of the 'Heda Civilization' - a star world about the size of the solar system, with six planets and an extinguished sun - apart from the remains of this world, no one can be seen from the Styx. In other abyss worlds, even the flow of the Styx River has undergone strange changes. It should have been a tributary river flowing out of the world, but now it has become an extremely huge whirlpool, endless water of the Styx. 'Being sucked in and absorbed by these whirlpools, the entire lower level of the abyss turned into an absolute nothingness that could only enter and not exit.
The lamentations of the stars came from the overflowing power of steel. Joshua raised his head and stared at the whirlpools spinning at the end of the tributaries of the River Styx.
Why is the lower level of the abyss like this? Even if the abyss is the graveyard of the world, there shouldn't be nothing there. The corpse of the world is so huge that it is impossible to completely disappear in thousands of years. There were many questions that needed answers, but in fact, no one knew better than him why the situation suddenly turned out this way.
Because, at the ends of those Styx tributaries, there are [black holes].
The God of Order and Destruction left the River Styx, and the huge Holy Emblem of Ouroboros appeared on the ruins of the damaged Heda civilization planet. It could be vaguely seen that at the core of the Holy Emblem, there was still a boy with divine power. Shadow exists, facing the extinguished stars and a dark void, He seems to be recalling and thinking. This god who for some reason suddenly regained some past memories suddenly showed a 'smile'.
[—Order is discovery, order is rebirth—
The initial fire burns away chaos, creating existence and order from the end of destruction.
Destroy the order of chaos and create our order. For chaos, perhaps we creatures of order are the incomprehensible chaos.
But so what? What we want is the world we want, and other ideas of existence are just boring delusions of insects and ants.]
"If the old order is not broken, the new order will not come -"
In the darkness and nothingness, Mielu, the God of Order and Destruction, raised his right hand high. His human form was constantly dissipating, but even so, he laughed and said it only when he tried his best. The Absolute Word from -
"Let destruction come! We will rule the ruins called Order after the destruction of Chaos!"
The divine power of order and destruction breaks out.
The phantom of the holy symbol of the blue Ouroboros expanded and spread in an instant, embracing the entire star field.
The blue radiance is like the light of the scorching sun, lighting up this dark star field at the speed of light. It can be seen from the Styx River that the light blue halo is rapidly expanding. During this period, the remaining chaotic power in all star fields is completely destroyed. It has even been converted into part of the divine power of the gods. According to this speed, in about forty minutes, the divine power of the Law of Destruction will be able to fill the star field and amplify it to a terrifying level.
But this speed was achieved only by relying on the power of the God of Order - and in the third second when the divine power of the Law of Destruction began to spread, something suddenly appeared in the void of the star field that originally seemed empty. A piece of extremely complicated runes that looked like gears. Soon, as this rune was activated by divine power, more gear-shaped divine runes were simultaneously activated by micro-space-time channels. At this moment, even light had to go. The forty-minute long journey was spanned by time and space magic in an instant. It can be seen that the originally dark and void star field of destruction was wrapped in endless gear runes at this moment, forming a huge and spectacular super giant. A spherical spell structure, and a blue Ouroboros took it into its arms and wrapped it tightly.
This is the first 'Core Seal Anchor' that Joshua has seen.
However, precisely because of the emergence of the anchor point, the divine power of the God of Order filled the entire star field. Therefore, it can be seen that the center of the core seal anchor point, where the star of the Heda Civilization's mother world was originally located, is still dark. It can be determined from the gravity beams and light distortion that there is a dark star there, surrounded by an extremely thick chaotic accretion disk, which firmly binds these filthy forces to its left and right.
That is the black hole - that is, the 'sealing anchor' that seals chaos, anchors time and space, and prevents evil from resurrecting. The entrance and exit of the core seal anchor is not around the black hole, and the entrances and exits of ordinary seal anchors lead directly to the black hole.
More than that.
As the God of Order settled in the core seal anchor point, more anchor points were activated - it can be seen that the light blue flash spread throughout most of the star field outside the lower layer of the abyss in an instant, and his power relied on the rebirth plan to stay The space-time array and the River Styx are lighting up in the wreckage of the world at super-light speed, like a huge 'ouroboros' surrounding the abyss, but you can see all the stars lit up by the blue divine power. Domain, the center of which is a circle of lightless darkness. Facing this darkness, even the Styx can only flow backwards and turn into a whirlpool. Countless chaotic forces and resentments from the upper world are here, being swept away by the endless Styx. The vortex absorbs and seals.
"Are you actually using a black hole as a stabilizer..." Joshua stretched out his hand and grabbed a flashing blue light spot, which was the little help the God of Order and Destruction left for the warrior before he left. Among the light spots is a small hourglass, with the divine power of order and destruction constantly circulating and reversing on both sides. They are always inverted and alternate, maintaining the stability and transformation between the two.
He put the hourglass into his body and whispered: "I hope there will be a day to see you again."
"The suppression of chaos by the 'Final Star' has its limits."
After the law of destruction expanded its own divine domain in the star field of the ruins of the Heda civilization and settled in the core seal anchor point, the remaining six gods and Joshua continued down the Styx. As the god closest to the warrior, law and freedom The God whispered: "It can unconditionally bind the power of chaos. Even the power of the evil god cannot break free. However, if the power of chaos is too large, the excess will still overflow and corrode the world."
"Originally, there should be a sealing unit made from part of the body of the weakened evil god to continuously weaken the power of chaos, but now, the power of chaos will only accumulate and not be converted."
At this time, the River Styx was flowing faster and faster. The entire galaxy of the world had been destroyed. The power of the world that was about to be destroyed was gathered by the River Styx and then transmitted here. Joshua could hear these endless steel waves. The particles contain the laments of stars and the sighs of countless civilizations.
He can hear and see countless images, words, images and memories. They are the runes engraved by time on the wreckage of the world, the books called civilization, and the particles of steel where countless worlds have collapsed. Perhaps they all contain a person. , or even in the life of a civilization, countless incomplete memories are rolling and turning in the River Styx, heading towards the bottom of the abyss, the place where all things are reborn. They will fade away from everything in the past and regenerate into a new appearance.
However, the path they, Joshua and others are traveling on is already full of twisting whirlpools.
The black hole that binds the chaos formed by the seal anchor point ruthlessly absorbs the power of the Styx. Although Joshua and the remaining six gods will not be involved with the power, if it is a creature like the Ferry Demon, it will be completely unstoppable. The power of resistance was swallowed up, which is why the ferry demons all over the abyss fled in panic, because when the rebirth plan failed, the seal that was originally in a balanced state was broken, and the Styx, which was originally flowing quietly, was destroyed by countless Black hole absorption, they are weak demons, no matter how hard they struggle, they cannot avoid the end of death.
Soon, the next parting will come.
What left this time was the God of Law and Freedom.
"I saw the second core seal anchor point - that is the mother world of the Denixi civilization. To be honest, it is really unknown. I only have rough information in my memory bank, but thinking about it, it must have struggled. I resisted, but both the thrilling battles and struggles and my memories have disappeared and been lost in the lost time."
The god of law and freedom, 'Beam Shape' - Scottson - left the queue. The tired-looking middle-aged man shrugged, and then his body collapsed, and his divine power turned into a light green bird. This huge bird holy symbol wore a thorn on its head. Crown, surrounded by countless chains with tiny barbs, but even so, he still soared in the void, flying towards a world that was almost empty, with only a few continental remains floating in the gravityless void. go.
Soon, with the endless spread of the light green holy light, the second core seal anchor point was activated. Inside the blue halo of divine power, the green halo gradually lit up, and countless final stars were visible walking around. Everywhere in the abyss absorbs the terrifying power of chaos.
"law."
At the core of the Asuka Holy Emblem, a figure who is free and easy but tired, seems to be torturing himself all the time, puts his hand on his heart, and he sighs softly: "It is the cornerstone of freedom."
[Freedom must be restricted—pure, absolute freedom without a bottom line will only interfere with the freedom of others. Freedom can only have its value if it is restricted by laws and order.
Birds must know the gravity of the earth in order to understand how pleasant it is to soar in the sky. Without the contrast of chaos, order is just a castle in the sky. Freedom without rules is just the fastest way to self-destruction.]
The human form disintegrates, and above the teachings, the absolute holy word is spoken.
"Follow the order that restricts disgusting freedom!"
Divine light spreads.
Joshua once again took over the light green spot left by the God of Law. It was a gorgeous feather, but this divine feather was very heavy, as if it contained a mountainous continent. But even so, the free bird Still able to rise into the sky.
After taking away the light spot, the warrior nodded silently, and everyone still moved forward.
The journey down the river is so fast, but there is surprisingly little chaos in the Styx - the power of chaos after the destruction of most civilizations is locked by the black holes along the way, that is, the core anchor points. It is like the buffer layer of a dam, filtering out layer after layer of chaotic silt, allowing as much pure world debris and steel particles as possible to enter the maelstrom of creation, which is also the place of abyss and nirvana.
If there were no such buffer layers and the world and civilization were destroyed and the chaos eroded by chaos was allowed to sink into the abyss, then the evil god would most likely awaken in an instant. In the past thousands of years, this magic circle has been functioning. , until not long ago, the weakened evil god died and the sealed unit was destroyed. But even so, the unknown evil god's awakening speed was greatly slowed down.
"The rebirth plan has actually failed long ago."
The god of wisdom and choice, Zerming, touched his beard. His human form is that of a very traditional white-haired magician. He is old and full of wisdom. On the way down with Joshua, he Shaking his head, he said: "When the time expansion seal disrupted the time between us and the rebirth plan, we completely lost control of this plan - no matter whether the weak evil god dies or not, whether he is swallowed by you or not, after more than ten years it will They should all be able to get out of trouble, because the time flow rates in the Weakened Evil God and the core of the abyss are different, and it has long been impossible to carry out the steps according to the plan."
"Don't think that the awakening of the unknown evil god is your responsibility, Radcliffe. Putting aside the fact that you don't know about it at all, detonating the power of chaos accumulated in the Nirvana of the Abyss in advance is also a good choice. In the future There are so many roads, who knows whether it will be better to let the chaos power explode in ten years when it has accumulated more, or whether it would be better to deal with this trouble directly now while we still have the strength? Since 'wisdom' cannot judge, Then someone needs to make a choice, and this time, it’s you.”
The God of Wisdom and Choice also left. Without saying anything, He quietly turned into an eye gazing into the void. Around the eye, countless bifurcated lines appeared like butterfly wings. It seems to imply endless choices for an infinite future.
"The consciousness of the world of Getilas... is what I admire. In the face of chaos, they know that there is a possibility of leaving, but they insist on moving forward like a fool. The flexibility of wisdom and the persistence of fools are both admirable choices. "
The light golden light of divine power spread again, and the Eye of Wisdom stared at the abyss and void of the third ring, activating the core anchor of another world.
Joshua raised his hand. What the God of Wisdom and Choice left for him was a compass-like pendant, but this 'compass' was not a guide. In fact, it turned completely randomly, occasionally clockwise, and occasionally Counterclockwise, it is completely impossible to tell where it is pointing.
Maybe this is the picture of the future, the warrior thought in his mind. He exhaled, hung it around his waist, and continued to move forward.
Soon, as we continue to go deeper into the bottom of the abyss, the buffer time becomes less and less, and the fourth ring is next.
But this time, it was the God of Love and Death who came to suppress it.
It was a weird binary galaxy. One star had turned into a black hole, and the other dark red giant star was constantly being absorbed by the black hole, even pulling it into the shape of a water droplet - and it was rushing away there, enough to instantly In the unparalleled river of matter that destroys one planet after another, the endless power of chaos is also suppressed on the black hole's accretion disk and cannot escape.
"The Sarns are an elemental race that lives on the sun. They can move at almost the speed of light, but they cannot leave the hot environment of the sun. An overly cold void will quickly kill these energy beings... They have always loved everything, and they are very interested in everything. All things unknown beyond the sun have good intentions and curiosity, and their passion is like the sun, which is almost never extinguished.”
[However, if there is life, there must be death. Where love rises, there must be destruction. Love is the peak, it will fade, and the end of this fade is the tomb called the end.]
The violet divine power fled away, and the Holy Emblem of the Withered Heart began to unfold around the black hole, and then contained the sun that was pulled into a drop shape. You can see the divine light pattern that is constantly unfolding like petals, and begins to Light up the core chaos seal of the fourth ring. .
"Only love and death are the ultimate -"
Just as the divine realm of the God of Love and Decline, Yolandai, was unfolding and he was reciting holy words, Joshua, who turned to leave, suddenly heard that the god who had shown the world in the form of an elf had left a message for himself. There was a secret flow of information.
I don't know whether it was expectation or an indifferent voice, which echoed in the warrior's spiritual sea.
"Joshua, let me witness whether your love for battle and the world can defeat this 'death' called Chaos!"
And at this moment, on the other side of the distant Styx, the absolute holy words were spoken, and everyone else and the gods could hear it. The laughter seemed to have been lifted from the suppression, and the laughter could finally be vented.
"O Death! Burn with love to the end of silence!"
Supernova-like light burst out from the core of the red giant star, and the rushing light shook the space and time of the star field. At this moment, the God of Love and Decay catalyzed all the energy of an aging star to surpass all previous gods. The fast speed lit up all the seal anchor points in the fourth ring!
What he left for Joshua was a blank photo frame with nothing in it. However, if he looked carefully, the warrior could see a few blurry figures—it seemed to be Firefly and Rin's, and it seemed to be No. 3 and Hei's. , Xiaoguang and No. 1, my students, Eagle, Nostradamus, Israel, Brandon and Loranda... all the people I know and are familiar with flash in this photo frame one by one. Pass.
Even the figures of people familiar to Joshua in his previous life appeared, and he could even see the "No. 1 in Heaven and World" sign hanging at the gate of the martial arts hall.
But in the end, there was still nothingness in the photo frame—or in other words, even divine power had its limits, and it could not depict Joshua's heart at all.
Taking this divine photo frame into his body, Joshua closed his eyes and paused for a few seconds. Afterwards, everyone continued to move forward.
