Chapter 39: The Dust of the World and the Sacred Tree of Growth (7200)
“…… What do you think! ”
Su Yan was stunned for a moment, pondering for a while, before he figured out what kind of 'tree' Elias was talking about just now. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test
He rebuked angrily and amusefully: "Do I think someone who would make such a joke?" ”
"On the contrary, it's you, a four-hundred-year-old man, why do you still make such jokes."
[Aren't you also a few hundred years old, just a little joke.] 】
Elias shrugged his shoulders - although he looked like a shota, he had actually spent hundreds of years in the human world, and this little joke was naturally at his fingertips.
Rather, he was not such a serious person in the first place, but for hundreds of years, he has been responsible for the survival of the world, so that human nature has been gradually worn out, and he can only meditate on the way to pass on the order.
But now, with Su Sun's return, most of the pressure has dissipated...... Although there is still a long way to go in the future, I can already take a breath, and naturally I have a relaxed spare time.
And...... Looking at his teacher's slightly annoyed and slightly annoyed expression, the trace of uneasiness in Elias's heart gradually calmed down.
- Su Sun is also a normal person, and he will be so stingy for this kind of trivial joke between men.
You must know that since they met again, in Elias's eyes, Su Sun has always been so serious and serious, as if he came to save the sky, so that he was a little skeptical that Su Sun would be some kind of special response to save the world, as long as the world of Tartadis was in danger, he would arrive.
But now it seems that this is not the case.
This is quite gratifying.
"All in all, I'm talking about trees...... It's my companion Sacred Tree. ”
Although Su Sun had no thoughts, but in the case of Elias, who was also the overlord, deliberately concealing it, he could only feel that the other party's mood had eased a lot, and he actually didn't have any emotions about it, so after complaining casually, he showed Elias his personal space: "It's that tree." Wisdom Tree. ”
The space cracked with Su Day's will, and a small world appeared in front of the Lord of Fire.
Elias stretched out his head and found that on the other side was a small world with a complete cycle of the four elements, wind, sea, and fire.
And the center of the world is indeed a towering divine tree dozens of meters high, it is blue and white, exuding the aura of wisdom, and a bee-man little girl is playing with this sacred tree, surrounded by all kinds of biological grass carvings, and a divine knife is chopping the air in mid-air, cutting out the Dao fire marks, which seems to be all kinds of chatter.
And the World Tree Spear remained motionless.
【…… I see! 】
After taking a closer look, Elias was amazed, but also noticed that something was wrong in this world: [In this world, there are no other lives? 】
"There may be one in the future, but for now, there is only some grass and trees."
Su Sun didn't care very much, his control over his personal space was complete, and whether there was life in it or not was the same thing to him.
He waved his hand and said hello to the Wisdom Tree, causing the other party to also wave the branches and leaves, and after saying 'Okay~', Su Sun closed his personal space, his expression was a little serious: "The growth of the Divine Tree needs soil and water, in the past, I used to use the water of Yaochi and the soil of Kunlun to cultivate, but now, it is slightly insufficient, and I can't find other better Divine Earth Divine Water for the time being." ”
"That's why I want to see if the 'world dust', which is enough to sustain the world, has the effect to my heart."
[I have fully understood. 】
Nodding slightly, Elias withdrew his gaze, and he smiled and said, "Then now, I will take you to the outer side of the world. 】
On the coast of Sunset City, the migration of the people of the sea and pirates continues.
And in the sky above the sky, two divine lights flashed away.
The passage to the outer side of the world is actually very familiar to Su Day.
When he and Elias returned to the center of the Sacred Fire Continent, around the Dawn Holy Mountain where the Central Sanctuary was located, and entered the deep dogma at the bottom of the Holy Mountain, he immediately understood.
The Dawn Sacred Mountain was incarnated by the corpse of the Earth God of the previous era, and his huge body, which once spanned several layers of labyrinths, absorbed endless earth elements at the beginning of the epoch and condensed into a sacred mountain in the middle of the world.
And in the deepest part of the mountain, at the beginning of the past era, opened up the heart of the four elements, the birthplace of the soul of the elements, and the sea of lava underground.
The golden-red lava boiled, and endless fire elements converged in it, and in the huge searing sea at the bottom of the world, the surging magic flowed endlessly, and even condensed into a near-materialized fire essence and elemental barrier.
Elias was the Lord of Fire, so he could easily overcome these obstacles, and under his guidance, Su Sun traveled through the sea of lava to the deepest part of the earth, where the 'Source Earth Bedrock' was located.
[Through the bedrock, it is the void beyond the world.] 】
In the flowing sea of fire elementals, Elias turned his head and said to Su Sun cautiously, while the young man also nodded slightly, and he replied solemnly: "I feel it...... Is this the end of the world? ”
The feeling of passing through the bedrock is not special, for Su Sun, it is just a very dense earth element barrier, with the power of the overlord level, it can be broken through with brute force, but under the inducement of Elias, the process is unexpectedly easy, and it feels like an ordinary time and space gate.
Normally, Elias doesn't really travel through the world, and in order to reduce consumption, he spends most of his time traveling through the Divine Soul - but this time it's to accompany Su Sun, so he doesn't mind spending a little more effort.
Soon, the two were out of the world.
- Ice Condensation Void - Great Ash Area -
The world shrouded in a layer of gray hazy light, blooming with crystal-like brilliance in the icy void, it is placed in a hazy mist like a nebula, enveloping everything and even everything in the void, and the brilliant brilliance is offset and refracted layer by layer, showing countless colors and brilliance.
Two insignificant points of light slowly lit up from the crystal-like brilliance, and then broke through and emerged on its surface.
"Is this the Void?"
When Su Sun arrived outside the world, he didn't have any particularly unexpected feelings, if I had to use an analogy, it felt like he was in the midst of a surging ocean current that was thousands of times more turbulent than the sea, and the infinite power intention took him to turn with the rotation of the world, and move with the movement of the world.
Moreover, because there is no protection of the god scale, he feels that the void around his ** is slowly condensing and slowly frozen, if he does not release energy to fight, he will be like frozen amber, completely sealed in the void.
"It's like an icy void...... The 'Sealed World' after the Great Seal. ”
Hum - a blue-purple celestial soul emerged from the top of his head, turning into a round of light ball-like shield, Su Sun stabilized himself in the void, he turned his head and looked at Elias, and found that the other party was also surrounded by layers of fire runes to maintain stability in the void.
[Usually, if it is a divine soul traveling, it will not encounter such great resistance, and it is many times more convenient to travel through the void with a divine soul alone than a real body. 】
Elias explained that he had been traveling through the void around the world of Tartadis for hundreds of years, and was naturally very familiar: "The dust of the world around here is difficult to collect, so let's go to the other side. 】
"Listen to you."
Su Sun let out a long breath, and he turned into a blue-purple streamer and followed closely behind Elias.
And on the way to the shuttle, he couldn't help but raise his head and look into the distant void.
You can see, even under the shade of the dust of the endless misty world, you can see the brilliant light released by the endless world in the ice condensation void, which is a light that is hundreds of millions of times more dazzling than the stars.
However, in the midst of this endless brilliance, there were silver lines that seemed to run through the infinite distance, and they spanned the realms, the infinite void, as if they ran through the entire multiverse, and even the Great Seal itself.
With just one glance, Su Sun could know that these silver lines were the 'pioneers'.
Or rather, the last legacy left by the pioneers - the ontology of the 'pioneer space'!
And in the world of Tartadis, there is also a silver line that comes from infinity and connects to this world.
“…… Sure enough, the pioneer's hand reached out. ”
Staring at this line, Su Sun followed its brilliance and glanced at the whole picture of the reincarnation world, but looking at it, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Wait, that's not ......"
His gaze was fixed on the surface of the reincarnation world, some areas that were slightly bleak like sunspots...... In those areas, there is still a part of the gray mist that fills the air, absorbing the ash dust from the surrounding area and feeding into the world of Tartadis to maintain order.
"Actually, the gray mist incarnation of the Silent Lord still exists, has it not left?"
Looking at those gray mist, Su Sun had long known that the Silent Lord had been watching this world all along, but he was still a little surprised: "Elias said that when he and the god of wind broke away from the barrier of the world and came to the void, he saw all the gray mist recede...... Now that I think about it, he left only to cultivate the enterprising spirit of these two gods. ”
At this moment, the young man can roughly figure out the thoughts of the Lonely Lord.
The other party just wants to let the life inside the reincarnation world progress little by little, and He also induces it little by little, until in the end, the life in the world can completely control the cycle of birth and death in their entire world.
Then, gradually, transcend samsara.
Whether it is finding a way to maintain the existence of the world completely, or leaving his hometown to find a new and stable new world, whether it is the Lord of Fire who stays behind or the Lord of the Wind who goes to a distant land, it is the way to transcend and the path to transcendence.
And this cycle of reincarnation, which maintains order, transcends the world, and explores the endless distance, is a song worthy of all life.
At this time, Su Sun was feeling the deep meaning of the lonely lord.
At the same time, Elias, who had already begun to act, came to Su Sun's side with a piece of world dust.
[Teacher, look. 】
Following the young god's divine thoughts, Su Sun turned his head, and he saw that Elias was holding a dark gray, cloud-like fog in both hands, and the misty energy glow even caused layers of silver points of light to glow in the surrounding void, these points of light were connected to each other like human nerves, transmitting some mysterious information to each other, turning into a scenery far more gorgeous than a star cluster.
And looking around, the dust of such a world is endless, filling all the voids around it, and even with Su Sun's eyes, he can't see the end.
"It's a little more beautiful than I thought it would be."
With a sigh of emotion, Su Sun stretched out his hand, and his spiritual power turned into an invisible giant net, wanting to capture a part of the dust of the world around him, and take it to his eyes for a closer look - but the strange thing is that the hand of the Lan Dun, which was originally enough to capture tens of millions of tons of seawater and grab a small hill, seemed to be useless at the moment, it created a gathering place for the dust of the world, but did not pick up a single bit of dust.
[Teacher, the dust of the world cannot be captured with magic. 】
Looking at this scene, Elias chuckled, and he stretched out his hand to show his skills to Su Sun: [The dust of the world can only be captured with the soul - this is why I only used the soul to travel in the past, because it doesn't help much to carry the true body. 】
The so-called magic power is actually another name for spiritual power, and perhaps in different worlds, there are different subtle differences between them, but they are all essentially the same thing.
Su Tiandingqing looked at it, and he realized that what Elias shrouded in the dust of the world was indeed not magic, but a network purely composed of soul stars.
When he landed, he was amazed, and then asked his external search engine in the soul space.
"Yarayala, do you know what this means?"
And the red snake spirit was at the top of the wisdom tree spirit at the moment, slapping the fruits of the heavenly demon souls hanging on it with his tail, and after hearing Su Sun's words, he said lazily: "It's very simple, the dust of the world is the pure essence left after the destruction of the world, it itself is a kind of superior essence that surpasses spiritual power, magic power and all other energies, you use spiritual power to salvage it, it is like fishing for water with water, and you get nothing." ”
"But the soul itself is a condensed and stable form of spiritual power, although it is also water, but the nature is more similar to ice, and it can't help but be able to scoop up water, and it can also absorb a certain amount of world dust with its own structure and temporarily solidify them."
Speaking of this, he turned his head sideways and looked at Elias from the corner of Su Sun's eyes: "Yours, this student who is twenty times your age, his divine soul has become able to walk through the void at will because of years of contact with the dust of the world, and in this regard, your soul cultivation is far inferior to his. ”
As if she had fallen into some kind of memory, Yara whispered to herself, "The soul captures the energy of the void and gives back to the world when it dies." The world gives birth to life, and life gives birth to the soul with the gradually increasing energy level, gradually making the spirituality and energy of the whole world stronger and stronger, until finally, it becomes a truly transcendent world. ”
"And if the world dies and destroys, it will turn into more world dust and scatter it in the void, so that other worlds can capture and absorb it, give birth to more souls, and create a virtuous circle...... It is the way of promotion in the world, the way of reincarnation. ”
With a long sigh, Yara stopped talking, and Su Sun took all this information to heart.
"Is the relationship between the soul and the world like this? The world and life are so closely interconnected......"
Thinking in his heart, Su Sun temporarily suppressed this doubt, and then adjusted his soul, turned into a huge net, and captured the dust of the world in the distance.
And this time, as Elias said, it was much easier than using spiritual power - although there was still some misty gray mist slipping through the net, most of the dust of the world was captured by Su Sun.
[That's it!] 】
Elias on the side smiled and nodded, he was not surprised at all Su Yan would learn it, after all, this matter is very simple as long as it is said bluntly: [I don't know how much world dust you need, teacher, in short, just capture it yourself. 】
[My true body represents the incarnation of the fire element in the world of Tartadis, and if I leave the world for too long, I am afraid that it will cause an 'imbalance of the fire element', so I will go back first, and then travel with my divine soul. 】
"No problem."
Su Sun naturally would not refuse, and he also understood that the elemental spirit had bound the gods...... Their ** has become the human pillar that maintains the survival of the world, and they cannot be too far away from the world, and if they want to go the original way, they can only travel with their souls.
Elias's golden-red light disappeared into the shell of the world, and after Su Sun tried to capture a large amount of world dust, he found that unless he split a part of his soul, it would be difficult to materialize the world dust as a pure essence into something similar to the earth of the earth in his imagination.
"Is it possible to use my own soul, or ghast, as a medium? It's not impossible...... It's just a bit of a waste. ”
He was distressed by this aspect, but soon, Su Sun remembered the 'burnt embers' in his soul that had been burned by karmic fire.
Burning embers are the ashes of the soul left after the ghast was burned by karmic fire, and its efficacy, Su Yan has not found it yet, but in general, it presents a pure soul quality...... If only the soul can store and stabilize the essence of the dust of the world, then it should be okay to burn out the embers.
As soon as he thought of it, Su Sun took out the burned-out embers from his soul space.
In the black mist, the cold light of karmic fire flickered in black and white, and it swayed in the void, like high-temperature smoke and dust spewing out of a factory chimney.
This thing is like burning out a charcoal fire, it is burning out the embers.
Su Sun tried to merge it with the dust of the world, and the results were exciting.
Burning out the embers did exert a soul-like effect, it completely absorbed a part of the dust of the world, and the two clouds of smoke and dust fused with each other, and finally in Su Sun's hands, they turned into a cloud of pitch-black powder...... The powder doesn't have any measurable weight, but it has a substance-like touch, it's a pure spiritual being, the dust of the world that manifests itself!
And the materialized world dust was carefully pinched up by Su Sun, and then put it in his mouth and tasted it seriously...... It's not really eating, but using the soul to sense the properties of this material.
As a result, the smell suddenly brightened his eyes: "Very good! ”
"It's a little bitter, but it's very 'fragrant' and delicious...... It's ...... It's like dark chocolate powder, and although it tastes bitter, it still has a rich aroma! ”
Because part of the materialized world dust was made up of burned out ghasts, after all Su Sun swallowed these powders, he immediately felt a force that was returning from him, replenishing a large amount of his soul power - although he didn't need it now, if his soul suffered a heavy blow in the future, then he could use some saved world dust to quickly repair his injuries!
At this time, there was no need to hesitate, Su Sun took out all his burned-out embers, and some of the previous ones that were left behind, because they were too weak, even the Wisdom Tree had no interest in the determination, and the Heavenly Demon Ghast of the Transcendent and Commander Rank were all used to fuse with the dust of the surrounding world.
And halfway through, he suddenly frowned: "Wait, the soul thing, to put it bluntly, is not a strange material, I have a ghast soul reserve, so I don't need to use my soul to reserve, but if there is an evil powerhouse, he has noticed the miraculous effect of the dust of the world, how can he not harvest the souls of all beings, to capture the dust of the world as a reserve?" ”
At this time, in Su Sun's mind, there were various legends about the soul in myths and legends, among them, the soul as the currency of the gods and demons always puzzled Su Sun in the past - how can the human soul be able to get the favor of the gods and demons? This confusion was even stronger when he realized that the soul was nothing more than an additional thinking organ of intelligent beings, especially after he had achieved transcendence himself.
But now, after perceiving the wonderful relationship between the soul and the world, and between the soul and the dust of the world, Su Yan suddenly realized...... I'm afraid that in this multiverse, for those who can travel through the void, the soul may indeed be some kind of currency.
For a while, Su Day's heart suddenly became heavy, but soon, he shook his head: "It's okay, it's just speculation." ”
"When I actually bump into this kind of existence in the future...... Let's think about how to kill them. ”
Putting this thought aside for the time being, Su Sun opened up his personal space and sprinkled the dust of the materialized world directly on the soil around the Tree of Wisdom.
When he landed, the pitch-black dust fluttered down, and there were still silver points of light flowing inside, which turned into crystal lines and fell like rain, and the moment these silver light and black dust came into contact with the earth, they hit a bright mist of light, enveloping the astonished Wisdom Tree and Sarah.
"W-what is this?" The little girl of the Wind People on the side was still a little confused, she waved her arms, but found that she could not scatter the smoke, and her own hand would even pass through them, as if the light and mist did not really exist.
However, in the next moment, with the sudden rise of surprise soul fluctuations, echoing in her personal space, Sara noticed that an inexplicable suction force appeared, and began to absorb all the light mist that she couldn't touch at all, and pulled all of them backwards.
Turning her head, the little beeman girl was surprised to find that the blue-white divine tree was now emitting a pure white holy brilliance, and all the silver light, mist, and black dust were absorbed by its roots and branches, and emitted pure happiness fluctuations.
Hum - you can see that the fire sword angels that linger on the branches of the sacred tree have also begun to transform at this moment, they are flying in the air one by one, drawing mysterious and mysterious holy runes, and then they all return to the branches of the tree of wisdom, and begin to form cocoons and sleep.
And the light on the body of the Wisdom Tree was almost as bright as the sun, and the benefits of the dust of the world to it seemed to be beyond imagination, making the Divine Tree make a sound of great joy.
"Day...... Good day! ”
Hearing this, Su Dayeng, who was originally smiling and watching this scene happily, turned dark, and he waved his hand and scolded angrily: "What day! ”
"Is it what you can call Day?! Come to think of it, I'm your father! ”
Although it sounds like a simple bad mouth, in a sense, it is not a lie - but at this time, the Wisdom Tree no longer has the energy to care about this, it was originally in the nascent stage of the Divine Tree, and then accepted the high-grade fertilizer that should not be obtained at this time, and at this moment it once again fell into accelerated growth and fell into a short period of sleep.
"Thank you, thank you~ Ah, I'm good, amazing!"
Muttering soul fluctuations like this, Shenmu's consciousness fell into a happy slumber.
The growth of the Divine Tree, one day, will transcend the world, reach the Void, and become the 'Void Divine Tree' that transcends the world...... At that time, the nutrients that the Divine Tree absorbed and used for self-sublimation were the world itself, as well as the dust of the world scattered in the void.
Su Day's conjecture was not wrong, the dust of the world was indeed a good material that surpassed all the divine lands for the Divine Wood, but ...... He didn't expect that it was like giving a child a medicinal wine, because the big supplement was excessive, but he fell asleep in an instant.
"Oops, this, this ......"
For a while, Sara, who was watching all this, couldn't help but be stunned, she never thought that the Tree of Wisdom, who was playing well with her, would actually fall asleep like this.
But before she could react, the voice of Su Sun, the Lord of Judgment, sounded in her ears.
"Sarah, you're having a good time with the Wisdom Tree, and the Wisdom Tree seems to like you too...... What do you think, how is it here? ”
Hearing this, the Wind People girl nodded slightly in a daze: "Tree, tree tree is indeed very good, I am very happy here, I almost forget the original world......"
"So, would you like to stay here and take care of the World Tree?"
At this time, Su Yan really didn't want to kidnap the little girl...... As an old father, in order to find a companion for his children, he really took great pains.
Reacting, Sarah's eyes lit up, and she immediately wanted to say yes - but soon, she frowned, as if she had something to say.
And Su Yan knew what the other party was thinking, and he didn't wait for Sara to speak, so he said with a smile: "I want to know how my parents are now?" Very simple wishes, I heard. ”
"Don't worry, I'll help you find it."
After instructing Sara to help take care of the situation of the Wisdom Tree, Su Sun's will returned to the void again.
He recalled the joyful soul fluctuations of the Wisdom Tree, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
"I have a tree, and under my influence, the current Dragon of Judgment also has a Source Water Divine Tree...... If you think about it carefully, the legend of the candles and the day of the heavens is quite consistent. ”
Thinking of this, he thought of his good friend who was still on the earth, and showed a thoughtful expression: "Speaking of which, Qiming is also walking the path of Shenmu." ”
Recalling the surprise of the 'Candlelight Group' that Shao Qiming brought to him before leaving the earth, Su Tian couldn't help but nod slightly: "This time, I'll also bring him a gift." ”
