Chapter 43: A Journey to the End

The god of order and destruction, Merlin, before Joshua had never seen the other party's human form, he speculated only by his priesthood that the other party might be a majestic man as carved out of marble, or an old man with supreme majesty.

But what is amazing is that the law of destruction, which has the two high priesthoods of 'order' and 'destruction', reveals a human form, but it is a young boy who is not very old and looks like he should be a human-elf hybrid.

Why is it in this form? Why do order and destruction be confused? What kind of 'logic' does this deity have to enforce his own order?

Joshua still didn't know the answers to these questions, but the law was leaving.

- This is the center of the lowest level of the world's galaxy.

What is the most intimidating environment in the multiverse? It is not the energy-agitating creation star cluster of the Void Maelstrom, as long as it reaches the legendary realm, it is certainly not a casual walk in that place, but it is not difficult to walk; It is not a nest of chaos inhabited by evil gods, although the evil gods are terrifying and terrifying, and the chaos clan is to destroy all living civilizations, but if the strength is enough, the evil gods are only slightly stronger enemies, similar to the tiger that lives at the door of the house.

What will make all life, even legendary powerhouses and gods, feel fearful, is not everything tangible and qualitative, even if the nebula is activated and becomes a huge creature like a galaxy, it is just a larger target, a target worth challenging, a valuable research object, worthy of awe, but there is no need to fear.

The fear that truly makes all beings feel and understand is actually nothingness.

Just like what Joshua and the gods see now.

After the six hundred and sixty-sixth layers of the abyss, the lower part of the abyss, the absolute dead world that even demons would not inhabit in the past, in this realm, all the worlds are the remains that have disintegrated most of them, and even the world barrier has been destroyed.

That's how it should be.

But now, apart from the mother world of the 'Hedda Civilization' - a star world about the size of the solar system, with six planets and a extinguished sun - apart from the wreckage of this world, there is no other abyssal world to be seen from the River Styx, and even the flow of the River Styx has undergone strange changes, and the tributary rivers that were supposed to flow out of the world have now become incomparably huge whirlpools, endless. The waters of the River Styx were absorbed and absorbed by these whirlpools, turning the entire lower layer of the abyss into an absolute nothingness that could only enter and exit.

The lamentations of the stars came from the overflowing force of steel, and Joshua raised his head to stare at the whirlpools that swirled at the end of the tributaries of the River Styx.

Why did the lower levels of the abyss become like this? Even if the abyss is the graveyard of the world, there should not be nothing, the corpses of the world are so large that it is impossible to completely disappear in thousands of years. There are many questions that need to be answered urgently, but in reality, no one knows better than him why this situation is suddenly the way it is.

Because, at the end of those tributaries of the River Styx, there are [black holes].

The god of order and destruction left the River Styx, and the huge Ouroboros emblem appeared on the wreckage of the damaged Hedda civilization planet, and it can be faintly seen that at the core of this emblem, there is still a juvenile form of divine power phantom, facing the extinction of the star, a dark void, he seems to be recalling, thinking, this god who for some reason, suddenly retrieved a little memory of the past, and suddenly showed a 'smile'.

[-Order is discovery, order is rebirth-

The initial fire burns out the chaos, and from the end of destruction, existence and order are created.

Destroying the chaotic order and creating our order, for chaos, perhaps we, the creatures of order, are the incomprehensible chaos.

But what is it? What we want is the world we want, and the idea of other existences is just the delusion of insects and ants. 】

"The old order is not broken, the new order is not coming-"

In the darkness and nothingness, the god of order and destruction, the law of destruction raised his right hand, and his human form was constantly dissipating, but even so, he laughed and recited the absolute word that he would only utter when he did his best—

"Let destruction come! We will reign over the ruins of order after the destruction of Chaos! ”

Order and destruction of divine power, erupt.

The phantom of the blue Ouroboros's holy emblem expanded and spread in an instant, taking the entire star field into his embrace.

The blue light was like the light of the scorching sun, lighting up this dark star field at the speed of light, and it could be seen from the River Styx, the light blue aura was expanding rapidly, during which the remaining chaotic power in all the star fields was completely destroyed, and even converted into a part of the divine power of the gods, according to this speed, after about forty minutes, the divine power of the law of destruction could fill this star field, and magnify to a terrifying level.

But this speed was achieved by relying only 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, an incomparably complex, gear-like rune suddenly appeared in the seemingly empty star void, and soon, as this rune was activated by the divine power, more gear-shaped divine power runes were activated by the miniature space-time channel at the same time, at this moment, even the light had to embark on a long journey of forty minutes, and in an instant, it was crossed by the space-time spell, and it could be seen, The originally dark and void Destruction Star Field was wrapped in endless gear runes at this moment, forming a huge and spectacular super-giant spherical spell structure, and a blue Ouroboros took it into its arms and wrapped it tightly.

This was the first 'Core Seal Anchor' that Joshua had seen.

However, it is precisely because of the appearance of the anchor point that the divine power of the God of Order fills the entire star field, so it can be seen that the center of the core seal anchor point, where the stars of the original Heda civilization home world are located, is still a darkness, which can be judged by the gravitational beam and light distortion, there is a dark star there, which is surrounded by an incomparably thick chaotic accretion disk, firmly binding these filthy forces to its left and right.

It is a black hole - that is, the 'sealing anchor' that seals chaos, anchors time and space, and makes it impossible for evil to be resurrected, the entrance and exit of the core sealing anchor point is not around the black hole, and the entrance and exit of the ordinary sealing anchor point leads directly to the black hole.

And that's not all.

As the God of Order settled in the core seal anchor, more anchors were activated - it could be seen that the light blue flash spread throughout most of the outer half of the outer reaches of the abyss in an instant, and his power was lit up in the wreckage of worlds at superluminal speed with the space-time circle left behind by the rebirth plan and the River Styx, like a circle around the abyss, incomparably huge' Ouroboros', but it can be seen that all the star fields lit up by blue divine power are a circle of lightless darkness in the center, and in the face of this darkness, even the River Styx can only go against the current, turning into a whirlpool, and countless chaotic forces and resentments from the upper realm are here, absorbed and sealed by the endless Whirlpool of the River Styx.

"Did you actually use the black hole as a stabilizer...... Joshua reached out and grabbed a flickering blue point of light, which was the little help that the god of order and destruction had left for the warrior before leaving. In the point of light, there is a small hourglass, and the divine power of order and destruction is constantly circulating and reversing on both sides, and they are always reversed and alternated, maintaining stability and transformation between the two.

He took the hourglass into his body and whispered, "I hope there will be a goodbye day." ”

"There is a limit to the suppression of chaos by the 'Last Star'."

After the law of destruction unfolded its own divine domain in the remnant star field of the Heddah civilization and settled in the core sealing anchor point, the remaining six gods and Joshua continued to flow down the River Styx, as the closest god to the warrior, the god of law and freedom whispered: "It can unconditionally restrain the power of chaos, even the power of the evil gods cannot break free, but if the power of chaos is too large, the excess will still overflow and erode the world." ”

"Originally, there should have been a sealing unit created by a part of the body of a weakened evil god that was constantly weakening the chaotic power, but now, the chaotic power will only accumulate, not transform."

At this time, the speed of the Styx River is getting faster and faster, and the entire world galaxy, the world that has been destroyed and is about to be destroyed, their power has been gathered by the Styx, and then transmitted here, Joshua can hear that these endless particles of steel contain the lamentations of the stars, the sighs of countless civilizations.

He could hear, he could see, countless images, words, images, and memories, the runes that time had engraved on the wreckage of the world, the books called civilizations, the particles of steel that had collapsed in countless worlds, perhaps all contained a person, or even the life of a civilization, countless incomplete memories tumbling and turning in the River Styx, towards the bottom of the abyss, the place where all things were reborn, and they would fade away from the past and be reborn into a new form.

However, the path they and Joshua and the others were on was full of twisted whirlpools.

The black hole of chaos formed by the anchor point of the seal mercilessly absorbs the power of the Styx, although the power of Joshua and the remaining six gods will not be involved, but if it is a creature like the Ferry Demon, it will be swallowed without resistance, which is why the Ferry Demon, which is all over the abyss, is so panicked and fleeing, because when the rebirth plan fails, the seal that was originally in equilibrium was broken, and the Styx, which originally flowed quietly, was absorbed by countless black holes, and they were weak demons, No matter how much you struggle, you can't avoid the end of death.

Soon, the next parting will come.

This time, it was the god of law and freedom who left.

"I see the second core seal anchor - that is the mother world of the Denich civilization, to be honest, it is really a bit obscure, I only have general information in my memory bank, but come to think of it, it must have struggled and resisted, but whether it was the thrilling battles and resistances, or my memories, they have all faded away, annihilated in the lost time."

The god of law and freedom, the 'Bunch' - Scottson - left the queue, the tired-looking middle-aged man shrugged, and then his body disintegrated, and his divine power turned into a pale green bird, the giant bird emblem wearing a crown of thorns and surrounded by countless chains with tiny barbs, but even so, he still soared through the void, towards the world that was almost empty, except for a few pieces of continental wreckage floating in the gravityless void.

Soon, with the endless spread of pale green holy light, the anchor point of the core seal of the second ring was activated, and on the inside of the blue divine power aura, the green aura gradually lit up, and you can see that countless final stars are walking in every part of the abyss, absorbing the terrifying chaotic power.

"Law."

At the core of the Flying Bird Holy Emblem, the figure who seemed to be torturing himself all the time pressed his hand to his heart, and he sighed softly: "It is the cornerstone of freedom." ”

[Freedom must be restrained - pure, absolute freedom without a bottom line will only interfere with the freedom of others, and only by relying on laws and order to restrain freedom can freedom have its value.

The bird must know the gravitational pull of the earth in order to realize how pleasant it is to soar in the sky, without the contrast of chaos, order is just a pavilion in the sky, freedom without the constraints of law, is only the fastest way to seek its own destruction. 】

The human form disintegrated, above the doctrine, and the absolute word spoken.

"Obey, the order that binds disgusting freedom!"

Divine light spreads.

Joshua once again took the pale green point of light left by the god of law, it was a gorgeous feather, but this divine power feather was very heavy, as if it contained a mountain continent, but even so, the free bird could still rise to the sky.

Accepting the point of light, the warrior nodded silently, and everyone still moved forward.

The journey down the river is so fast, but in the River Styx, there is a surprising amount of chaos - most of the chaotic forces after the destruction of civilizations are locked by the black holes along the way, that is, the core anchors, they are like the buffer layer of the dam, sifting out layer after layer of chaotic sediment, and letting the pure wreckage of the world and the particles of steel enter the maelstrom of creation as much as possible, which is also the place of abyss nirvana.

If there are no buffer layers for these buffers, after the destruction of the world and civilization, the chaos eroded by the chaos disturbance is returned to the abyss, then the evil god is likely to awaken instantly, and this magic circle has been in effect for thousands of years, until not long ago, the weakened evil god died, and the sealing unit was destroyed, but even so, the speed of the awakening of the unknown evil god was greatly slowed down.

"The rebirth plan has actually failed a long time ago."

The God of Wisdom and Choice touched his beard, his human form was a very traditional white-haired magician, old with wisdom, on the way down with Joshua, he shook his head and said: "When the seal of time dilation disrupts us and the time of the rebirth plan, we completely lose control of this plan - whether the weakened evil god dies or not, whether it is devoured by you or not, it should be out of trouble after more than ten years, because the time flow speed of the debilitating evil god and the core of the abyss is different, There has long been no way to follow the plan. ”

"Don't think it's your responsibility to wake up the unknown evil god, Radcliffe, let's not talk about it at all, it's also a good choice to detonate the chaotic power accumulated in the Abyssal Nirvana Land in advance. There are so many paths ahead, who knows if it will be better to let the chaotic forces explode when they accumulate more in ten years, or to deal with this trouble now while we still have the strength? Since 'wisdom' cannot be judged, someone needs to make a choice, and this time, it is you who make the choice. ”

The god of wisdom and choice also left, and without saying anything, he quietly turned into a pupil staring into the void, and around this pupil, countless bifurcated lines like butterfly wings appeared, as if implying infinite choices for the infinite future.

"Enlightenment of the world of Gdiras...... It is my admiration that in the face of chaos, they know that there is a possibility of leaving, but they insist on moving forward like fools. The flexibility of wisdom and the persistence of fools are both admirable choices. ”

The pale golden radiance of divine power spread once more, and the pupil of wisdom stared into the abyssal void of the third ring, activating the core anchor of another world.

Joshua raised his hand, and what the god of wisdom and choice had left for him was a compass-like pendant, but this 'compass' was not a compass, in fact, it rotated completely randomly, occasionally clockwise, occasionally counterclockwise, and it was completely impossible to tell where it was pointing.

Perhaps this is the picture of the future, so thought to the warrior, he exhaled, hung it around his waist and continued to move on.

Soon, as we continued to go deeper into the bottom of the abyss, the buffer time became less and less, and the next was the fourth ring.

And this time, it was the god of love and decay who went to suppress it.

It was a strange binary galaxy, one star had turned into a black hole, and another dark red giant star was constantly being sucked up by the black hole, even pulling it into a droplet—and in the river of unparalleled matter that rushed away, enough to destroy one planet after another in an instant, the endless chaotic forces were also suppressed on the accretion disk of the black hole, and could not be separated.

"The Saun are an elemental race that inhabits the sun, they can move at almost the speed of light, but they can't leave the hot environment of the sun, and the too cold void will kill these energy beings quickly...... They have always loved everything, and they have a kind and curious heart for the unknown beyond the sun, and their enthusiasm is like the sun, which almost never goes out. ”

[However, where there is life, there will be death, and where love rises, there will be a descent that perishes, love is the peak, it will fade, and the end of this fading is the tomb called the end. 】

The violet divine power light disappeared, 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 droplet, and the divine power light patterns that continued to unfold like flower petals began to light up the core Chaos Seal of the Fourth Ring.

"Only love and death are the ultimate—"

Just as the realm of the god of love and decay unfolded and he recited the holy words, Joshua, who turned to leave, suddenly heard that the god who had manifested the world in the form of a spirit had left a secret stream of information for himself.

I don't know whether it was anticipation or indifferent voices, echoing in the sea of warriors' spirits.

"Joshua, let me witness if your love for battle and the world can overcome this 'death' called Chaos!"

And at this moment, on the other side of the Styx, the Absolute Word was spoken, and all the remaining people and gods could hear it, as if the suppressed laughter was lifted and finally could be vented.

"Death! Burn with love to the end of silence! ”

Supernova-like light burst out at the core of the red giant, and the rushing tide of light shook the space-time of the star field - at this moment, the god of love and decay catalyzed all the energy of a twilight star, and at a speed faster than all the previous gods, it lit up all the sealing anchors of the fourth ring!

What he left for Joshua was a blank picture frame, empty of it, but if he looked closely, the warrior could see several vague figures—Hotaru and Rin, 3 and Black, Light and Hatsu, his students, Eagle, Nostradamus, Israel, Brandon, and Lolanda...... All the people I know and are familiar with flash in this frame.

Even, even the figures of people who were familiar to Qiao Shuya in his previous life appeared, and he could even see the signboard of 'No. 1 in the sky and the world' hanging at the gate of the martial arts hall.

But in the end, there was nothing in the frame—or rather, even divine power had its limits, and it couldn't depict Joshua's heart at all.

Putting this divine power frame into his body, Joshua closed his eyes slightly and stopped for a few seconds. Then, the crowd moved on.
