Chapter 219: Free Will (2-in-1 Chapter)
Lin Xuan's right hand was raised slightly, and a humanoid corpse slowly rose from the underground swamp. It is said to be humanoid, because this corpse is obviously a set larger than ordinary people. And judging from the appearance of the skull, it is also quite different from humans.
The bones were still, but at the moment when Lin Xuan dug it up. The death qi on his body increased significantly. It was like there was some kind of reaction.
"What's going on? It doesn't look like a human corpse. And it seems to have some kind of reaction to us. ”
"That's true. If nothing else, this is the remains of a fallen god. But his divinity has completely dissipated. Even the god body is left with only this skeleton. Strangely, however, this skeleton is generating a new will. ”
"What do you mean, is it going to be resurrected?"
"No, the fun part is here. The original owner of the bones is completely dead. But now a new will is brewing. Interestingly, is this to brew a new God? Or rather, demons. ”
"Aren't the gods supposed to be non-existent? Back then, you destroyed the temple and didn't see them do anything. ”
"Maybe it wasn't. But as magic prevailed, the energy of this world began to become more and more active. When the energy of the world is active to a certain extent, all life in the world will be affected to varying degrees. At that time, there may be more strange magical creatures besides dragons. You will soon find that there are more and more people in this world who have magical talents. It may even lead to other systems of power that are different from magic. ”
"Are you talking about the spirit of war?"
"Fighting spirits?"
"You don't know yet. A few years ago, a wandering swordsman used his battle energy for the first time during a jousting in King's Landing. He emitted a strange sword light from his sword, defeating another samurai in heavy armor. He called his strength the battle spirit. Since then, the spirit of war has begun to spread. However, his cultivation was extremely difficult, and in the past few years, I had heard that there were only ten people who could use battle qi. Each one of them is a guest of a large family. ”
"Fighting spirits? Interestingly, you are on the verge of a new era. Katie, Lisa, you two have to take advantage of this opportunity. Never underestimate those new forces. Don't try to curb them, but don't take them too lightly either. Someday they'll shine. ”
Lin Xuan's serious tone made Lisa and Katie record in their hearts. To talk about the so-called fighting spirit, it is almost the fighting spirit in the network. However, the current vindictive spirit is still in the initial stage. But the rudiments of a new system of power can already be seen. In time, the world of sword and magic will truly unfold.
"What about this skeleton? Are we going to destroy it? "Lei was influenced by Lin Xuan, and he didn't have the slightest reverence for the so-called gods.
"No, it's a rare opportunity. A demon in the making. And it was born from the bones of a god. Don't you think it's funny? ”
Lin Xuan's consciousness penetrated deep into the core of the bones. A trace of the most primitive will has been generated there. Or rather, just the rudiments of will. It doesn't even have any expressive power. I don't know any of my own definitions.
But in the depths of this nascent will, there is a solidified memory. This is also one of the benefits of the body of the gods. Any part of the body is already somewhere between energy and matter. It can even be converted into energy at any time, and the physical body can be completely abandoned. And their bodies also have some special properties. The most common thing is that every part of the body is able to store information.
It is also an instinct of the gods. They sealed their memories in **. As a last resort to resurrection. Once you fall because of an accident. Then the various resurrected backhands that were reserved before will be activated. This one will only be the turn when all the backhands are failing.
The bodies of gods are extremely precious to mortals. So it will inevitably be watched by countless people. And once someone touches the memories in the bones, they will be forcibly instilled with these memories. It's just memory, and there is no such thing as forcible seizure. Because the so-called gods may not have existed at that time.
Of course, the mortal brain cannot truly withstand the memory of a god. When the time comes, that person will be shocked by a large number of foreign memories. Then endless foreign memories will subtly affect him. When the time comes, a memory with all the gods. At the same time, the existence of everything that is close to the dead gods can also be called a kind of resurrection in disguise.
Of course, if this person can cultivate into a god-level existence based on the memories in his mind. Then it will touch the divine position of the true God in this world. At that time, the record of the true God that has been recorded in the will of heaven and earth will awaken again. In that case, it will be a resurrection in the true sense of the word.
It's just that the corpse in front of Lin Xuan's eyes has obviously received some kind of contamination. It's completely spoiled. Even the surrounding environment has become like hell. So even if it is successfully conceived by then, it is estimated that it will be an evil god or something.
Of course, Lin Xuan would not let this thing be born. A powerful spiritual power elephant poured in, directly tearing the unformed will and those huge memories into pieces. This is the bones of the gods, and in alchemy, they are the best of the best. Lin Xuan naturally wanted to put it in his collection in case of emergency.
The whole adventure is thrilling. Of course, with the strength of four people, the entire world of ice and fire can walk sideways. It is estimated that those true gods at the beginning did not dare to plunder their edge in the world, so this is also a matter of course.
When it's all over, it's another time of separation. Lin Xuan has experienced all kinds of differences. But for a few students in the world of ice and fire, I always miss them extraordinarily. Maybe it's because this is my first student. Any first time in life is unforgettable.
"Magic, it's invisible, it's mysterious, it's straightforward. It exists in every corner of this world, in every person's heart. You are standing here because you are all the ones who have heard the call of magic. You will all embark on a path that has never been seen before. Remember, this is not a bright path. It's a single-plank bridge full of endless thorns. Only the most determined, persistent, and powerful people can go to the end......"
At Katie's invitation, Lin Xuan gave the first class to the freshmen of Winter Academy. Lin Xuan didn't explain any magical knowledge. Just told some basic truths. Only the most determined people can go to the final truth. These simple truths are deeply imprinted in the minds of these children on their first day they are exposed to magic. And it became their lifelong creed.
The students of the academy did not know him. Even the rest of the teachers didn't know him. But based on Dean Katie's look, they had already guessed who the person in front of them was. The legendary man.
......
This time it's a trip to the world of ice and fire. Lin Xuan's harvest can be said to be quite abundant. Not only did he get the advanced magic he wanted as expected. An additional skeleton of a god was also obtained. It's a good harvest. And for that skeleton, Lin Xuan just had an excellent usage.
Among the many worlds that Lin Xuan had experienced, there was no doubt that the gods of different worlds were different. It's like the gods in the Lord of the Rings world, and compared to the gods in the wizard world, it feels like two completely different creatures. But at the same time they also have something in common, and that is divinity.
Yes, it is divinity. It stands to reason that divinity is the most important criterion for distinguishing gods. Because the gods are different because of the difference in divinity. But at the same time, divinity is also their greatest similarity. Because all the gods, if stripped of the attributes of their divinity, are actually the same in nature.
Lin Xuan had a trace of the origin divine power of the Egyptian god of death. Later, Lin Xuan took away the law of death and transformed into pure divine power. And he also has the god body of Lena Fox, and has been intimidated by more than one god. I stumbled upon this feature in the analysis again and again. As for the reason, he also has some speculation. But that is too far from his current strength, so it can't be verified for the time being. But for now, we can use the existing conditions to do an experiment. to make a preliminary argument for your own theory.
At the same time, he took out the body of Lena Fox and the bones of the unknown god. Complex and obscure incantations were chanted in his mouth. At the same time, his hands kept carving on the bones. Countless intricate runes were inscribed on the unknown bone. Although it is a divine body. However, there was no divinity at all, only basic attributes were left, and naturally he could not resist Lin Xuan's magic.
Although Lin Xuan was somewhat sure, he was a god of different attributes after all. So it's better to be on the safe side. Lin Xuan used all his means to engrave countless runes on the bones that would help to fuse, balance, and the like. In order to increase the odds of success.
An incandescent ball of light floated in front of the skeleton. There was a faint figure around the orb of light, but the part of the face was already blank, due to the fact that consciousness had been completely erased. If you look closely at the ball of light, you will find that it is actually composed of countless runes that are invisible to the naked eye. These invisible runes are made up of another set of runes that are even smaller. Layer upon layer, almost endless. This is the accumulation of a deity. In fact, it's not appropriate for this thing to be called a divine body. To paraphrase the routines in the network, this should be called Godhead. A godhead who has lost his own will.
The skeleton is not in pure human form. Much taller than the average person. And the skull is closer to the beast form, if it is to be described, it is probably closer to the head of the alien in the movie. The whole is slightly curved. It is a half-beast form. But after all, it was a divine body, so even in this form, there was still a peculiar beauty in Lin Xuan's eyes.
Lin Xuan pushed with his right hand and gently sent the ownerless godhead into the bones. A blinding white light flashed. The skeleton's somewhat dirty body radiated an unprecedented luster. The countless runes carved by Lin Xuan's seal also began to flash continuously.
The entire skeleton began to rattle in bursts of noise. If you look closely, you can see that the overall shape of the skeleton is changing slightly. Whether it's the height, the overall shape, or the shape of the skull. All slowly approaching like human figures.
The last body of this godhead was in human form, possibly leaving some kind of template behind. Lin Xuan didn't have the knowledge reserve in this area, so he could only guess like this. The change was twofold, and Lin Xuan could feel that the bones were also affecting the godhead. But because it has been too long since the fall. So the spirituality of the bones has basically disappeared, so in the end it is the Godhead that prevails.
In Lin Xuan's eyes, the bones continued to deform, and finally turned into a humanoid skeleton. And this is just the beginning, new flesh and blood, meridians, and even skin begin to grow on the skeleton. In the end, a human form was formed. However, the facial expressions are still a little blurry, and it seems that due to the lack of consciousness, it is not possible to complete the facial shaping. Moreover, the whole body is still neutral, and there is no distinction between men and women. It looks like it's just a basic metamorphosis.
And in the depths that are invisible to the naked eye, there is a different kind of change. Inside the body, with the Godhead as the core, the veins composed of countless energies quickly spread to the whole body. A perfect energy circuit has been formed that is most in line with this body. As the energy continued to spread, countless smaller veins continued to extend, gradually covering every corner of the body.
Even if there was no movement, Lin Xuan could still feel the terrifying power contained in that body. But in terms of strength, it is even above Lin Xuan. The only thing missing is a complete will to sustain this body.
Just thinking of this, Lin Xuan's expression changed. Because just now, he realized that what he was thinking in his heart had really happened. Because he clearly felt that some kind of vague chaotic will was slowly taking shape in this body.
Lin Xuan did not interfere with the fusion of the two sides. He put all his energy into it. Because what he fears most is to breed a monster that is not under his control. After all, there are too many baptisms of various movies. These artificially cultivated guys are always going to get out of hand. But this time, Lin Xuan was completely prepared from the beginning.
As early as when he was enchanted on the bones, he had a dozen ultra-lethal spells on them. The trigger is in his hands. If anything goes wrong, destroy the skeleton immediately. And the moment the body is formed, the mental power is already fully opened. Concentrate on monitoring the entire body. In order to be able to detect this kind of problem at the first time.
The fact that the skeleton was generating a will has already illustrated the situation. The remains of these gods and things like that. Once in an active energy environment, it is very likely that a new will be reborn. Therefore, Lin Xuan deliberately nailed this aspect. He wanted a weapon of absolute obedience. Not an energy that surpasses his free will.
