Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 862: Back down

Views:

Soon, one intelligent life after another was created.

On the lava island, pure elemental creatures composed entirely of elements appeared. Accompanied by the blazing wind and light, the creatures had no fixed form at all. Only floating shadows of fire shuttled between the lava. They were of different shapes and were not the same kind. Creatures, but their extremely similar habits make them look exactly the same from a distance. At the same time, at the volcanic vent, there are also huge lizard dragon beasts with thick carapace, and snake-like creatures with runes on their scales.

Unlike the previous beasts, the eyes of these creatures all shone with the light of wisdom, but now, they all fell into a brief confusion. What Joshua reshaped was not an individual in the original civilization, but an individual in the original civilization. Similar to the 'heroic spirits' embodied by all the memories of the entire civilization. They do not have individual memories or emotions, but are close to a degraded version of collective consciousness, but more like real life.

At the moment they were just created, the memories of countless lives over thousands of years were constantly resurfacing in their minds. Their hearts were filled with strong winds and huge waves, and their mouths were thirsty. However, they did not know the source of this inexplicable blood boiling. No reason can be found anywhere.

It can be seen that beams of light fly out from the silver stars and sink into the obelisks. One after another, the shadows turn from virtual to real, and then give birth to the heroic soul of a civilization.

However, just when the situation was looking good, Joshua, who was in the center of the world, suddenly groaned.

Along with the buzzing sound that seemed to reach the limit, a large number of external thinking organs in the world all turned red and melted due to overheating. Silver mist lingered around them and turned into smoke pillars. In addition, there were other things fixed on the silver star. The internal relay server also made a sound similar to a whine, and even the entire silver star experienced a flash lag similar to poor contact.

"... It seems that my strength is not enough to manifest so many prototypes of intelligent life."

Feeling that the thinking organs in his body were damaged one after another, Joshua couldn't help but frown. He knew that this was probably his limit.

If it were just an ordinary intelligent life, then Joshua could create the number of people in a country in an instant. For him, it is not an exaggeration for one person to create a race. But if there is no intelligence, the level of precision is not required. With such a tall ordinary beast plant, Joshua can even cross the void and fill in projections in several different worlds, just like he did before.

However, what he reappeared from the memory of the world this time was not an ordinary intelligent life individual, but a heroic soul condensed with countless memories and countless knowledge - these individuals may not be able to use the knowledge and bravery in their own memories, but they They all have infinite possibilities, and they themselves represent the world from which they came, and are the prototypes of intelligent life.

In the future plan, when the heroic souls take shape, Joshua will throw these prototypes of intelligent life out of his own world and let them go to the void to find a world suitable for them. Then, they can take matters into their own hands and recreate themselves. Civilized Adam and Eve, and then lead them back to the starry stage.

They just have this potential, and they know every mistake in their civilization... A priest on earth named Nader Ransom said well, if the people in the world could live again, half of the people would become Great men sometimes have enlightenment precisely because they have failed.

All in all, when Joshua embodied them, it was like manifesting small worlds one after another. Even with his strength, it was impossible to turn all the dependents into entities in one step.

"... It's almost enough. If too much is revived at once, my world will probably fall into internal chaos and the energy cycle will collapse... "

Taking a deep breath, Joshua restored his thinking organ and relay server to their original state. He shook his head, and then looked at the land and sky islands around him.

From now on, the process of embodying the prototype of intelligent life has been suspended. The warrior decided to wait until his world is bigger in the future before reviving more races. Now that he has decided to awaken them all, Joshua will do it for him. They are responsible. At least they cannot allow several races with the same living environment to live together, right? No need, he could do better.

It can be seen that among the nine sky islands and the bottom silver continent, most of the species in the first layer of lava islands have been realized, while the species in the subsequent sky islands and continents are relatively rare, especially those specially used to place The silver continent of some species with special conditions, now only one kind of floating jellyfish that needs to survive in thunderclouds floats on it.

This species lives in an ocean planet full of violent winds and thunderstorms. They communicate through electromagnetic signals. The magnetic field of the entire planet and the continuous thunder are their source of life and energy. Through these excellent conditions, they have developed extremely developed Magical civilization.

But with the advancement of civilization, this kind of jellyfish plans to engrave magical runes on the entire planet's atmosphere and maintain a strong electromagnetic environment forever. This plan to transform the entire world is so huge that civilization has tried its best to fail. - No one expected that the construction process would be so laborious, and it should be smooth in theory - but only the general magic circle was completed, which permanently changed the electromagnetic environment of the world, causing the jellyfish to lose the ecology they depended on for survival, and then became extinct.

Now, this cute jellyfish is stirring arcs and playing with lightning in the thunder sea specially created for it. It may be the best electromagnetic engineer in this galaxy. Even if it is a pure elemental life, in terms of magic control, Probably not as good as the rune tentacles they specially evolved.

And just when Joshua was examining the world inside his body and fine-tuning the positions of each race in his body, the six-color divine light passed through the abyss, followed the power of the great demonic tide, and entered the former abyss of Nirvana. land.

"over there."

The violet light was the first to discover the trajectory of the silver world. He pointed in a direction, the chaotic zone between black and white at the bottom of the vortex, and then the six-color divine light flew straight in the direction he pointed. go.

"The prototype of the Creation Maelstrom has been formed here." Arriving at the Chaos Zone, the blue divine light couldn't help but say: "The time and space pressure close to the past has begun to appear - of course, it is completely incomparable to the original, and it cannot be compared with the previous chaos. It takes time to condense, but now that the space-time pressure appears, it means that everything is on the right track."

"The recovery of the Creation Maelstrom is only a matter of time." Regarding this point, the iron-gray divine light said lightly: "And the matter of time is our biggest problem."

By observing the multiverse, the gods have long discovered that dark devouring tracks have appeared in other worlds and galaxies besides the world's galaxies. That is the way of destruction that multiple evil gods jointly advance to gnaw out of the stars. It is obvious , the target of these evil gods is the lost galaxy where Mycroft civilization is located.

It is estimated that within forty or fifty years, countless evil gods will arrive one after another. Before that, they need to be fully prepared.

"When we recover, the enemy will return. This time the enemy's attack will be more fierce, but at least it will not be as sudden as before."

The pure white divine light said calmly: "If it were just a frontal battle and not a surprise attack, we wouldn't have been in such a difficult and difficult battle."

"But this time there are more enemies than last time." The light golden divine light pointed out this point: "Although the enemy will no longer have countless abyss demons to help this time, there should not be as unreasonable as the Evil God of Fertility. A level evil god, but we won’t have the help of sages this time.”

"… So, we put our hopes and chips on this one."

The light green divine light spiraled down, forming a regular and neat spiral. As it flew towards the direction of the silver world, he said in a low voice but calmly: "In four or fifty years, if the teacher achieves his goal, The purpose of leaving, then the evil god will naturally collapse without a fight - if not, but this person has also become an existence in that realm, the worst thing is to fight the final battle again."

"That's right." The other five gods laughed silently: "The worst thing is to fight the final battle again."

"Besides, if we die this time, we should sleep in eternal peace."

In the silver world, Joshua sensed a familiar divine power approaching.

He heard the message from the God of Protection and Progress.

"Come on, Joshua."

With Joshua's permission, the projection of the dwarf god's power appeared around the star. He looked around at the internal situation of the entire world, and then said: "The creation whirlpool is gradually taking shape, and the time and space pressure here will It’s getting heavier and heavier, and even you will be bounced away... Hey, what are those guys, your newly created family members?"

Joshua knew what the other party was talking about about space-time pressure—it was actually when energy was condensed to a certain extent, and the power of the creation vortex would bounce all existences to a certain extent out of their own realm, just like those newly born formed worlds. Most of them are pushed to every corner of the world's galaxy by the pressure of time and space. This is why true gods also have difficulty in it. This is equivalent to ordinary people walking on the street against a seventeenth level wind. It can happen at any time. Blown away.

"They can be considered my dependents." Joshua didn't say much. He noticed that the Six Gods were approaching his body, and seemed to want to help him leave the Dark Abyss. However, the warrior with his own plan did not intend to leave immediately. , so he summoned everyone at the same time: "Wait, everyone, I am not in a hurry to leave now."

"The Creation Maelstrom has just taken shape. Even if it is a field, it has only been formed for only a day. Its repulsive force is not that great - and as a world, I have made a lot of gains in this field."

As he spoke, Joshua revealed the reason why he fell into the depths of the extremely dark abyss - as the power of silver steel rose up, he could see a large number of steel coming along the light of the demonic tide and the wave of chaos. The particles are spinning around the silver steel world and then being sucked in by it.

One black and one white, two extremely huge forces collided, forming an obvious vortex in the entire extremely dark abyss, and the center of this vortex was the area where Joshua was.

Just as the world of Hyboria is the center of the great whirlpool of the void, Joshua's world is now also the center of the great whirlpool of creation - of course, the two are different. Although the great whirlpool of the void is terrifying, it is similar to a typhoon and will not affect the world. The world in the eye of the storm causes no destruction, but the Creation Maelstrom is similar to a real whirlpool, and the center is where the undercurrent is the most turbulent.

It is also the place where steel particles and various material flows are most concentrated.

It can be seen that the silver metal world is constantly rising mist tentacles like the sun's corona, actively absorbing substances and steel particles that are extremely beneficial to the world from the surroundings, enriching the elements within the own world, even if there are turbulent undercurrents, for those who have been affected by multiple gods Blessings are nothing to Joshua, who is extremely strong himself. What's more, even as the pressure of time and space continues to increase, Joshua is also constantly getting stronger.

Of course, the growth rate of the Creation Maelstrom is definitely faster than the rate at which Joshua becomes stronger, but this can also greatly delay the time for the warriors to be ejected, allowing the Silver World to gain more and greater opportunities in such an environment. benefit.

What Joshua said made sense indeed, so much so that the Six Gods stopped in their tracks.

They originally thought that the warrior was too tired after the battle, so he fell into the deepest part of the Dark Abyss, but they didn't expect that this was the result of the other party's active plan... In this way, they were even happier, because Joshua's power was just right. It's what they need. Since the other party can benefit from this extreme environment, they don't mind helping.

As a result, the six-color divine light began to revolve around the silver world, and layers of divine power were shed and solidified. It could be seen that a huge steel particle capturing array was taking shape around Joshua's body.

And just when the Six Gods were preparing to help Joshua speed up the absorption of steel particles and material flows, the shadow of the God of Protection and Progress looked at the inside of the warrior's world with rather curious eyes.

From the perspective of this powerful man who was an extremely powerful legend before he became a god, he could naturally see that there was a certain similarity between Joshua's inner world and the rebirth plan - of course, the essence must be completely different. After all, rebirth The planned supercontinent world has an almost infinite source of energy, while the energy source of the Silver World is only Joshua himself.

“How are you going to build this world?”

The dwarf god said this, and he seemed to want to help: "I know some techniques for shaping the core of the demiplane and making super large mass engines... Of course, this is nothing to you now, but Maybe we can draw an analogy.”

Joshua would naturally not refuse the kindness of a god. Indeed, just like Yi Zhe, he did master the technology of world creation and annihilation engines, but those high-end abilities consume a lot of money. If it were not for dealing with the evil god of death, He would never use the skills provided by his opponent, which just made up for his weaknesses in normal combat.

Moreover, the demiplane shaping technology is essentially no simpler than world creation—in the final analysis, creating a world only requires a large accumulation of steel power, making it a crystal of steel power, and then... blowing it up. Demiplane is different. This is a more subtle and sophisticated technology that creates an independent space between the world and the space bubble. It consumes less resources and has the potential to advance into the world.

Although the fairy queens have not yet sublimated the plane into the world, that is only because the fairy queens are missing some key elements. When the fairy clan becomes more prosperous, two or three legends will emerge, and the 'fairy world' will appear. It's just a matter of time.

As for how Joshua plans to build his own world.

"To be honest, I learned a lot of useful experience from the Great Khan of the Star Shepherds and their Void Behemoths."

Joshua looked at the nine sky islands floating around the star. Perhaps they could become nine planes in the future? Thinking of the future, he couldn't help but smile, and then showed his plan to Yi Zhe: "The world is life, and the creatures living in the world are individuals in this huge life, part of a huge life."

At this time, a certain side of the silver star suddenly burst out with strong light. It carried a large amount of energy and shot straight towards the lava island.

Less than a second later, the lives in the lava island sensed high-energy reactions. These intelligent beings were still in a confused period of confused memory, but their physical instincts allowed them to simultaneously start to operate the extraordinary power cultivation method of the corresponding civilization—the ability to practice in the lava. Almost all creatures that survive in this world have access to extraordinary power—to cope with this sudden incoming light and heat.

Soon, with the rotation of the elements, the fluctuation of the ether, the light of magic and the energy of life shine together, the large amount of energy that Joshua deliberately exploded was absorbed by the intelligent life in the lava island, and then differentiated into various extraordinary forms. strength.

"The island of lava is the energy conversion zone in my plan. The beings living on this level have powerful energy conversion capabilities. They can convert the monotonous steel power and pure heat energy I hold into other extraordinary powers. , ensuring the extraordinary balance of power within the world.”

Joshua stared at the lava island. He smiled softly and said: "A world with only the power of steel cannot cultivate any powerful beings. Even I have traveled through many worlds to gain the power I have today." .”

Immediately afterwards, you can see that a large amount of excess extraordinary power is scattered from the lava island and floats to the second-level tropical rainforest island. Here, a large amount of extraordinary power is absorbed by the insects and plant life living here, among which Part of it was refined and turned into fruits or stored as food reserves, while the other part, after being purified by the Rainforest Island, was extinguished by the scorching atmosphere of the Lava Island, and continued towards the third level, the ocean. The island floats away.

Here, the light and heat from the stars and the extraordinary power from the upper island will precipitate and become a large amount of mineral crystals accumulated on the seabed, becoming the food for the life of giant beasts. These minerals will flow from the bottom of the sea island along the tide. The Guixu flows out and turns into a huge waterfall together with the sea water, watering the mainland islands, mountain islands and plain islands behind.

On these islands, energy and matter will undergo a series of refinements through the hands of intelligent life, just as magic is subdivided into 'secret', 'arcana' and 'magic', just as psychic energy is divided into Divided into 'meditation', 'passion' and 'source power', the extraordinary power that has been refined to such an extent is beneficial to the world and can greatly enrich the extraordinary environment within the world. Give birth to a new and stronger generation.

The subsequent Desert Island, Glacier Island, and Underground Island are all relatively special islands, each with its own circulation system. Like the Silver Continent, they will produce some special resources and extraordinary power, but they only indirectly participate in Sky Island. and continental circulation. However, there are currently no heroic souls settled on these three islands.

And the silver star is located at the center of the world, shining and watching all this.

"The world is a factory, and likewise, this is a test."

Facing his own world, Joshua said calmly: "And Wanzu is the worker in it, the student taking exams."

"I am responsible for providing the raw materials, and they are responsible for the construction - this is the nursery for building civilization. I am looking forward to the day when these fruits called losers will mature and I can throw them out of this nursery and let these already Through practice and examination, the heroic souls who have proven that they can rebuild civilization have returned to the stars and become our helpers."

With that said, Joshua lowered his head again and looked at the sky island world. The warrior's eyes were full of confidence.

He looks forward to that day.

He firmly believed that day must exist.
