Chapter Twenty-Three: The Essence
As soon as Edward Nolde's consciousness sank into the dark sea, he immediately lost all control of this consciousness, just like an ordinary person sleeping in a dream, it was completely instinctive, and he couldn't even think, and he was completely immersed in it.
This dark sea is full of chaos and disorder, it is complete chaos, complete disorder, in this dark sea there is not even a thing or concept that life can understand, for example, Edward Nolde saw a flower, a flower composed of fingers and tentacles, if you look closely, you will find that this flower is a huge world, on this flower there are many unbelievable existences, these existences are completely indescribable, indescribable, and even just seeing it will make people insane.
The whole dark sea was full of such things, completely illogical, and Edward Nolde sank into it for only a few moments, and he felt that his mind and soul were beginning to gradually become obscured, and the most terrible thing was that he did not even realize the danger, and continued to sink into it, as if he was about to merge with this incomparable darkness.
In this instant, Edward Nolde understood why demigods were so difficult to achieve, and even if they did, they were the kind of demigods who had no special abilities......
The ones who can ignite the divine fire are none other than the existence of the peak of the legend, all of them are arrogant, all of them are masters of their own fields, and after being completely prepared, they sink into the depths of their hearts and gaze at the sea of their hearts, and then they heard Gaia's luck exchange divine fire, which only ignited a little flame on the surface of this dark sea.
It is true that a large number of demigods will do this, exchanging luck for demigod rank, this business is done, luck can be accumulated again, it is really not possible to create the most organization after becoming a demigod, relying on the organization to absorb luck, but there is only one life, and if it is gone, it is really completely gone, and the achievement of demigods is not only a huge increase in strength, but also the same is true for lifespan.
This is the choice that most demigods will make, but there are exceptions, after all, everything is different, there are dragons and snakes in the recklessness, and there are also some legendary peaks that are so-called heroes and heroes, how can they accept the so-called trade to lower their level and potential?
That's right, this kind of flame ignited on the surface of the dark sea, although it can also be regarded as a divine fire, but to be more precise, it is a pseudo-divine fire, the demigod who ignites this divine fire, compared with the demigod who really ignites the flame from the depths of the sea of the dark mind, is almost equivalent to the difference between an ordinary holy position and a high-level holy position, not only in strength, but also in the potential for the future, so there are so-called heroes who will not pay attention to this kind of transaction at all, but will only dive into the depths of this dark sea by themselves, and rely on their own strength to ignite this divine fire.
Edward Nolde knew all this at this time, although it was only a momentary realization, but he knew that he was going to die, and he was going to be integrated into this dark sea.
At this moment, suddenly a fragment of light appeared in this pitch-black sea, this fragment of light was extremely weak, compared to the entire pitch-black sea, even fireflies were more than the moon, it was simply the size of a starfire to a star, no, to the entire universe.
But this fragment of light interrupted Edward Knowle's fusion process, he saw this fragment of light, this is in the catastrophe of the strategic decisive battle weapon bombardment, he was not selfish, did not take himself, but forcibly took the refugees found around, escorted them, fled all the way, and in the end, he even planned to accept the recruitment of forces far inferior to him for the sake of these refugees, so he joined the forces of Hao's side.
This fragment was filled with light, and it merged with Edward Nolde, so that his body began to radiate light, although compared to this boundless dark sea, this light is only a little, but after all, it is the only logic in this dark sea, the only light.
"Yes, light the divine fire, all the messages are clearly stated, gaze into your own heart, and ask yourself what you see...... What I see is responsibility, tolerance, and ...... heart."
"But...... I woke up too late, from mortal to extraordinary, from extraordinary to high-level, from high-level to legendary, to three-material legend...... Along the way, for the sake of strength, for the sake of becoming stronger, for all kinds of things, I have compromised too much, and I have too many regrets......"
"This last little bit of heart is not enough to ignite my divine fire, I ...... Failed......"
The light on Edward Nolde's body became fainter and fainter, and when he saw that he was about to disappear, suddenly a blue light came from the sky, this blue light was like a mirror and like the sky, from top to bottom, through the dark sea, enveloping Edward Nolde in it, and then he was stunned to find that since his childhood, his past began to change constantly, and he did not shirk the mistakes of his childhood, he did not shirk to the servant, the servant was not kicked out, nor did he freeze to death in the winter, he admitted his mistake...... When he was a child, he didn't lose his friendship because of his wayward temper...... When he grew up, his partner didn't die in an accident because of his fanatical pursuit of power...... He did not let a catastrophe erupt in his pursuit of power...... He didn't......
Countless fragments slowly converged, in front of his eyes, in his heart, and in his body......
Gradually, the light on his body became thicker and thicker, and the area of the dark sea illuminated became larger and larger, and when the last fragment merged with him, he seemed to see everything that had been in the past, and he had been smiling all the time......
"Once, I also vowed to be a great person, and I was a teenager at that time...... At the end of the day, instead of being a great person, I became the person I hated the most as a child......"
"Back then...... I could have laughed so frankly......"
There is light bursting out from the dark sea, illuminating this boundless sea, it seems to be a flame, faint, small, but this flame is so tenacious, in the dark sea like a natural disaster, unscrupulously burning out of its own light, that is not succumbing to this reality, that is to be able to stand up in the face of all difficulties, that is always sticking to the heart, worthy of the flame and light in one's heart, that is......
Light of the Heart!!
On the other side, Hao entered a super state and came to the depths of his soul with Edward Nolde, and then a blue light appeared in front of his eyes, and he didn't see anything after that, and it wasn't he who helped Edward Nolde ignite the divine fire, he fell into a strange scene.
He saw the darkness, the boundless darkness, and through the blue light, he found that this darkness was not pure darkness, but blood-colored darkness, which was the darkness condensed by boundless blood, because it was too deep, because it was too exaggerated, so it showed a terrifying dark appearance.
Hao saw a human being dead, that human being was abused to death by a thousand races, and then after he died, from the depths of this human heart, a dark sea was disappearing, but there was blood dripping into it, it was extremely hideous blood, that was unwilling, unwilling, disobedient blood, that human resentment, hatred, all negative thoughts were in that blood.
When the black sea disappeared completely, a drop of blood enveloped the darkness, carrying the darkness through the indescribable barrier and merging into the boundless sea of blood.
This blood-colored sea is both blood and darkness, boundless, enveloping the entire multiverse, no, it is even larger, more terrifying, and much more than the entire multiverse, almost all of it has penetrated beyond the multiverse......
Blood-colored, pitch-black, pitch-black to unimaginable proportions, it's simply ......
I can't see my fingers!!
