Space-time Traveler

Chapter 434: Sacrifice of the Abyss

Views:

In this memory, Su Ziyu gained a lot.

This memory completely records the entire process of how the second generation of Obiris demons invaded and occupied this place and transformed it into a bottomless abyss. Storm Lord Bachard used the domain laws he mastered to completely transform a certain layer of this plane, and built an eternal hurricane eye over his former territory.

This hurricane eye is like the magic source of the mage, from which he can draw endless energy from the elemental plane.

Su Ziyu's mastery of the [Storm] field suddenly jumped to nearly 80% progress. About two-thirds of it was analyzed by the space-time monitor system, and the other third was achieved by Su Ziyu's own ability. The power of divinity and divinity, comprehending Bachard's operation throughout the whole process, and realizing the mastery of the [Storm] field bit by bit. His growth in the past relied more on the ability of the time and space supervisor system. This is the inevitability of the supervisor system, because time and space supervisors need to travel to other worlds, and they do not have so much time to slowly learn and master it.

But when it reaches a certain height and its own strength is getting closer and closer to the upper limit that the space-time monitor system can increase, the increase brought by the system will gradually weaken, and Su Ziyu must learn to find his own path.

If he hadn't met Stephen, the guardian of time and space, he might have needed to experience several worlds before he understood this.

But luckily, the Space and Time Center found him in advance.

The complete space-time hub is composed of two systems. The time-space guardians are like frontier bosses, and the time-space travelers are the bridges connecting them. Only travelers who control the hourglass of time can cross it. The crystal wall system brings together the power of many feudal bosses.

The Pantheon is actually in a similar situation, because only the gods can open the barrier of the crystal wall system, and even if the other gods are very powerful, it is difficult to cross the crystal wall system. Once they forcefully cross it, it means giving up the original crystal wall. The kingdom of gods that the department spent a long time building.

This memory is too long.

Although the time in the outside world passed very briefly, Su Ziyu still took a while to recover. He skipped over the dim starlight and focused his attention on the last gray nebula with a hint of blood.

That was the fall of Storm Lord Barchard.

Su Ziyu took a deep breath, and then his spirit rushed directly into this nebula. It recorded the end of an era and recorded one of the signs of the end of the era of ancient gods. Many ancient gods also gradually fell and retreated into the background. Later, the second generation of Obiris demons who had been their enemies also ushered in the end of their era.

—"Death-Yager!..."

Just entering the nebula of memory, Su Ziyu heard a low murmur, as if sighing or admiring. This voice seemed to have spanned the long river of time and whispered in Su Ziyu's ear. Ringed softly.

Some knowledge that did not belong to Storm Lord Bachard's memory emerged in Su Ziyu's mind.

This seems to be a visitor from the past, an extremely powerful being. He also visited the memory of Storm Lord Bachard, and left his own sigh at this location.

Su Ziyu seemed to have received some recognition from this existence, so some long-standing secrets also appeared in his mind.

The River Styx was brought by an ancient god of death named 'Yager'.

He is one of the first ancient gods to be born. He was the most powerful god of death in the crystal wall system. He was also the one who was closest to the 'God of Gods'. After he was tired of his priestly mission, he also observed death. After the future, He chose to give up his priesthood, divided death among three mortals, and directly promoted them to the powerful 'Three Gods of Death'.

But these are all things that happened later. At the end of the Age of Ancient Gods, the God of Death, Jaeger, was not yet a complete recorder of death, so he was still performing his duties and spreading the power of death to all planes. middle.

Yeager is formulating the law of death in the Abyss, and he also has his own plans, because he brings human souls to the Abyss.

Except for the God of Death, Jaeger, no one in this crystal wall system can decide where the human soul goes.

The Obiris demons thought that their failure was due to their inability to control the ambitions of the Tanar'ri demons, but they did not know that all this was destined to happen. From the moment the human soul appeared in the bottomless abyss, the Obiris demons The Biris demons have already become the prey of the ancient gods, and this is also the last little gift prepared by the ancient gods for those who come after them.

The Tanar'ri demons created from human souls will never succumb to the enslavement of the second-generation Obiris demons, nor will they willingly succumb to the original demons from the real void.

Tanar'ri demons inherit all human nature.

With endless desires and ambitions, they will never allow the life of this universe to be ended, because that means that they will also return to nothingness, and their desires and ambitions can no longer be satisfied, leaving only pure destruction.

To some extent, the human soul is tainted by the abyss.

But to a certain extent, the chaotic power of the bottomless abyss has also been stolen by human souls. All the souls pouring into the bottomless abyss are stealing the power of the bottomless abyss, swallowing it all, and turning it into the power of their own promotion. Foundation, and then demon lords emerged one after another.

The demon lords of the Abyss have part of the authority of the gods. Although it is limited to the Abyss, they can control part of the power of laws in a certain plane they rule, just like their own divine kingdom.

And these powers all come from the deepest part of the bottomless abyss, which is an unknowable and unpeepable void.

Some ancient evil beings left over from the age of the ancient gods lurk here, but they cannot break through the prison of the bottomless abyss. The bottomless abyss itself is like a huge inverted pyramid, directly blocked by the power of a plane. In the deepest void gap, the power that seeped out formed a consciousness called 'Abyss Will', but it was divided by human souls. Every human soul that comes to the bottomless abyss must absorb the power of the abyss. , because only these powers can transform them into demons.

It is better to block than to open up.

This is what Jaeger, the god of death, once did, and he was the last ancient god responsible for the aftermath.

He used human souls to calm down the pollution of the Abyss, and then moved the entire underworld to the upper level of the Abyss, so that all subsequent gods of death had to suppress the abyss, because if they were not suppressed, the Tanar'ri demons in the Abyss would Steal all the souls from the underworld.

Therefore, after the death god Jaeger returned to seclusion, no matter how hard the beings who held the [Death] priesthood in the past hit them, as long as there was any movement in the bottomless abyss, they would first suppress the abyss as soon as they turned around.

However, the Death Gods behind them learned the lesson and flowed part of their souls to Baator Hell, allowing the devils to deal with those demons.

This is a deal.

The result of the transaction is the never-ending abyss bloody battle in the lower plane!

"These secrets should have been left behind by that being, right?" Su Ziyu murmured.

The person who knows the secret of the ancient god of death is most likely that Lord Sauron once visited the memory sea of Storm Lord Bachard.

The Obiris demons didn't know all of this in the end.

They thought that human souls were gifts from God, but they did not expect that it would be a funeral song for them.

Human beings' changeable personalities and abundant desires make their souls extremely malleable, and the complexity of human nature makes it difficult to fully measure a person's good and evil. Therefore, whether it is a good or evil human soul, it is difficult for the Obiris demon. It is an existence that can be transformed.

Su Ziyu saw the eye of a hurricane that almost covered the sky, streaks of lightning streaking through the dark clouds, and a giant whale-like creature hovering in the sky, which was the creation of the Storm Lord Bachard.

And below the eye of the hurricane, on the land covered in blood and bones, Su Ziyu saw an almost endless army of demons.

The third generation of tanar'ri demons!

With the end of the Age of Ancient Gods, mankind has ushered in an extremely prosperous period on the main material plane. Belief in gods has entered the stage of history. Because of conflicts of faith, racial wars, land disputes, etc., humans on the main material plane have They sprouted out like weeds one after another.

Human life span is short.

Compared with other races, the average life span of humans at that time was less than forty years. It was completely impossible to compare with long-lived races such as elves and dwarves. Therefore, humans were born very quickly. They became adults at the age of sixteen and died very quickly. , even if he died, he was only in his forties, less than the adult stage of an elf, and roughly equivalent to a dwarf who had just grown up.

Before the birth of human beings, the souls in the lower planes were very barren.

Souls are scarce, expensive, and precious. The Demon Lord Obiris often fought for outstanding souls. After the human souls appear, all demons can easily capture the loot because there are simply too many of them.

The human soul is of very high quality.

Unlike other races that reproduce rapidly, the short life span of human beings has not affected them in creating a brilliant and brilliant civilization. They pursue knowledge, strength, power, art, all desires, and learn from all races that are better than them.

The human race has all kinds of good and beautiful pursuits, as well as all evil and depraved desires.

This means that their lives exploded with extremely bright brilliance in just a few decades, and the final fruits are souls full of original power.

Many immortal species will live a monotonous and repetitive life for decades, but humans will not. Whether it is the oppression of survival or the desire for something, they will always burst out with brilliance at a certain moment in their lives. Brilliance.

To the devil, neither good nor evil is important. What is important is desire, ambition, the catharsis of emotions, and the shining light of humanity.

So for them, the human soul is the most perfect material.

One after another, human souls are pouring into the bottomless abyss crazily. The newly born gods of faith in the main material plane are competing for the authority of the gods. In the final era of the ancient gods when the system of the Kingdom of God has not yet been perfected, the souls of countless legendary strongmen are In this way, he fell into the lower plane.

The acquiescence of the God of Death, Jaeger, is the ultimate culprit that caused all this.

Then.

Everything is moving forward according to the will of the ancient gods. After being enslaved for a period of time, the third generation of Tanar'ri demons created from human souls finally launched an uprising!

Su Ziyu is in pain now.

Painful and hopeless.

Because what he felt was the death of Storm Lord Bachard. Surrounded by nearly endless tanar'ri demons, his huge body was being eaten away bit by bit and dying bit by bit. Even if He can kill a large number of demons with each blow, new demons will be born soon.

The power of the Styx surges.

The entire bottomless abyss seems to be a grand and grand sacrificial ceremony at this moment. Whenever a tanar'ri demon dies, its soul will escape and turn into energy, which will be quickly absorbed by the soul of a new strong man. A weak Coward Demon can advance into a powerful Balor Demon in just an instant, as long as there are enough corpses of the same kind around it as food for growth.

And the sacrifices offered in this ritual that affected the entire Abyss were those Obiris demons.

Their innate power was enough to tear apart any tanar'ri demon, but they were surrounded by more tanar'ri demons. The shackles of the law of death seemed to be completely untied, no matter how many died. Tanar'ri demons, there will be new tanar'ri standing up in a sea of corpses and blood.

This is the authority of the ancient god who controls the law of [death]!

When the basic law of death is subverted and the soul is no longer bound by the River Styx, all Obiris demons can only welcome death in endless despair. Only the most astute and cautious lucky ones can escape this by chance. A reckoning with the ancient gods!

This is a trial in which all living beings on the main material plane are used as pawns. Human beings are the sharp blades in the hands of the ancient gods and the most perfect creations of the ancient gods.

While feeling the desperate and painful death of Storm Lord Bachard, Su Ziyu also heard the admiration from another death god. He was praising the ancient death god Yaeger's masterpiece, as if he was admiring the most beautiful painting. painting.
