Chapter 253: The Land of the Dead
For many people, after groping in the dark for a long time, after trekking for a long time, there is always an invisible fatigue in both body and mind.
This will make them feel very sleepy and sleepy, and they always want to get a good night's sleep, a solid sleep, even if they are already old after a night's sleep.
They sometimes think, just leave it at that, tired.
But tomorrow and duty will always drive their tired, broken bodies to move on, to continue to try to touch the light in the darkness.
Because we have experienced darkness, we have greater expectations for the light of light.
But this expectation is not answered for a long time, and it will always become gradually numb and indifferent.
In the boundless darkness, Xia Mi had this very strong sleepiness.
She walked in the dark for a long time.
As for how long, she couldn't remember.
She just walked forward mechanically.
Actually, she didn't know if it was ahead or behind, she just kept walking.
Very tired, very sleepy.
A strong sense of sleepiness swept in, and I don't know the years.
The boundless darkness was too silent, and Natsumi stopped, her eyelids so sleepy that she could barely open.
All abilities are isolated here, and the golden pupils can't be ignited.
She sat down slowly, and the ground seemed to be exceptionally soft, like a well-prepared Simmons.
She lay down, wishing she hadn't slept for a while.
When you wake up, you can keep moving forward.
But just before she closed her eyes, there seemed to be light flickering in the darkness ahead.
No, it's not light, it's like stars after stars.
No, not the stars!
Natsumi stood up from the ground.
At this moment, countless lights lit up in the darkness.
Starlight.
She was walking in the starry sky.
After passing through the endless darkness, I finally saw the light.
She finally remembered from her physically and mentally exhausted state that she should be in the process of being promoted to authority at this moment.
What kind of process this is, Natsumi doesn't know.
Many people want to take this road, but there are extremely few people who have embarked on this road.
What you will encounter on the road has never been recorded in a book.
At this moment, Natsumi was not shocked that she was walking in the starry sky, but shocked by the brilliant golden light that lit up in front of her.
A towering giant tree stands in the starry sky.
Its branches extend in all directions.
Its foliage is dense, and its huge canopy seems to obscure even the entire starry sky.
The dense leaves on the canopy of the tree exude a soft golden sheen, making people feel like bathing in divine grace.
In the legend of the dragons, the world began with a giant tree that obscured the sky, and it was the origin of all life, and it was also the origin of the world.
It runs through the nine great worlds and is the most primordial mystery.
According to mythology, Odin once hung himself from the branches of the World Tree, thus comprehending the Rune script and mastering the mystical powers.
And Odin's spear of fate, Kungunir, was made from the branches of the World Tree.
Locked by Kungunir, no matter who it is, it is impossible to escape death.
Thousands of years ago, Natsumi finally saw the legendary spear of fate.
In front of the spear of death, which ruled fate, as powerful as Nidhogg, finally fell under Kungunir.
As for the mythical World Tree with a mysterious veil, Natsumi doesn't even know whether it's true or not.
She didn't know well enough.
All she knew was that Odin's spear of fate, Kungunir, and Ella's golden scepter, were of no means of this world.
And now, what she sees in front of her is the mythical World Tree with a mysterious veil.
She originally thought that the mythical World Tree was nothing, a title, and an existence that was difficult for her to understand.
And now, the World Tree, which should have been nothingness, was standing in front of her at this moment, standing in the starry sky.
The golden luster is like a divine grace scattered, making people feel like a spring breeze and washing away the lead.
The fatigue all the way, the confusion and wandering all the way, seem to be swept away at this moment.
Natsumi walked towards the World Tree.
Standing under the towering giant trees, she seemed so small.
Looking up, the leaves seem to carry a world inside.
Natsumi stretched out her hand and touched the trunk of the World Tree, which was barely endless.
But her hand pierced straight through.
The World Tree is clearly in front of you, but it doesn't seem to be in this world.
But when her palm penetrated the trunk of the World Tree, Natsumi had some understanding of why she saw the World Tree.
This is the only path to ascending authority.
The promotion of authority requires a qualitative leap in the spiritual element, that is, the soul needs to be deformed.
Before this process, they must first pass through the darkness of the infinite and unknown years.
Only the tempered soul, the most tenacious soul, the soul that has experienced the baptism of darkness and has never been lost, can have the possibility of transformation.
The five elements that build the world are all so vigorous here.
But the most exuberant is the spiritual element.
Even this world tree that shades the starry sky seems to be embodied by spiritual elements!
These primordial species, who had not mastered the most powerful spiritual element, had the only way to be promoted to the master of all elements.
Of course, there is another way, and that is the Golden Puree that requires another all-elemental master.
In the past, Herzog completed the transformation with the help of Eri Yi.
But the premise is that the blood of Eriyi, which combines the holy relics of the Holy Child, already contains this kind of authority.
Eri inherits the blood of the White King, and she is the purest human of the White King's bloodline.
After she united the relics, she was only reuniting the separate authorities.
Herzog had simply stolen that authority.
But Natsumi is different.
Because there is no such authority in her bloodline.
So she needs to go this way, to complete the promotion of the soul, to complete the promotion of authority.
Xia Mi stood under the towering giant tree, slowly closing her eyes, bathing in the scattered divine grace of the World Tree.
Warm, warm.
Her body and mind were empty like never before.
This feeling made all her tiredness disappear.
Her body floated slowly in the light of divine grace, rising towards the canopy, higher and higher.
Her body was gradually covered with a faint golden halo.
Her soul grew stronger, and every moment Natsumi could feel this substantial upliftment.
At the same time, with the ascension of her soul, her perception and manipulation of spiritual elements are also steadily rising.
This kind of ascension seems to be endless, like a vast ocean.
The surging and surging energy made her feel so full before.
This is the real authority of the gods!
Natsumi's body grew taller and taller, rapidly approaching the canopy.
As Natsumi's body ascended, a branch slowly wrapped around her body, pinning her to one of the branches.
At the same time, sprouts began to grow around the branches.
The buds were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, swaying gently, scattering a little bit of brilliant golden divine sheen.
And Natsumi was unconscious, she was immersed in this savage promotion at the moment.
She is like a drop of water, trying to turn into a sea and pour the sea into her arms.
She didn't know how long she was immersed in this unbridled promotion, and her body had melted into the branches.
The branches and leaves swayed slightly on her cheeks, making Natsumi feel a slight itch.
Annoying.
She thought to herself.
This feeling reminded her of a boy.
The boy named Lu Mingfei.
The boy was so annoying, with a poisonous mouth.
Like the branches and leaves rubbing her cheeks at the moment, it always spoils her good mood.
'Dear Sister Natsumi's Tomb'.
This is what he wrote.
, this person, can he write?
Also, how did I come up with this guy?
Natsumi was irritated and wanted to reach out to remove the leaves from her cheeks, but found that her hand seemed to be fixed.
Or rather, her hands, as if they were not under her control.
This situation finally made Xia Mi open her eyes from the immersion.
Just as soon as he opened his eyes, Xia Mi's whole scalp was numb, and a deep chill spread all over his body.
I don't know when, her whole body has been embedded in the trunk of the tree.
That kind of powerful promotion made her forget about herself.
That vast spiritual power made her lose herself.
If Xia Mi's soul and spiritual power are a drop of blood, then the spiritual power of the World Tree is the vast ocean.
And this drop of water of hers actually tried to accept the vast sea of spiritual power and hugged the sea into her arms.
But I don't know that if she doesn't wake up and continue, only she will become a drop of water in this ocean.
Ascending to authority has always been a dangerous path.
Many people may have been here before, but they all eventually became nutrients for the World Tree.
Those who try to gain power from the World Tree should also be prepared to become the nourishment of the World Tree.
Natsumi began to struggle hard.
Her violent movements caused the branches to begin to crack one by one.
Natsumi, who can't become a nourishment, is useless to the World Tree.
The World Tree is not conscious, it just instinctively wants to give up the broken part of Natsumi.
So, a tendrils stretched up from underneath it, rolled up Natsumi, and dragged the broken part of Natsumi towards its rhizome.
At this moment, Xia Mi finally saw that under the World Tree, there were three huge rhizomes.
These three huge rhizomes are connected somewhere.
The three rhizomes stretched into the void, making it impossible to see.
At this moment, one of the huge rhizomes tore a pitch-black opening, and a cold wind blew out of that opening, and faintly, Xia Mi even heard a ghost-like roaring and terrible voice.
At the same time, a wrinkled hand pulled at the open opening.
The stuff in it was like some evil ghost.
The demon seemed to be trying to escape from the open portal, but it seemed to be dragged by something, and the finger bones that were clutching the hole were broken, and it could not escape from it.
This is, the land of death?
Xia Mi's pupils shrank, and her face changed drastically.
In Norse Mythology, the World Tree has three giant roots.
The first root goes deep into Asgard, and beneath it lies the Fountain of the Urdes.
The gods of the past met here.
The three goddesses who decide their fate are the ones who live next to the Wooded Spring, taking care of the roots of the World Tree and the Wooded Spring.
The Fountain of Woods is also the Fountain of Life.
The second root goes deep into Jodenheim, and under it is the spring Mimir, a fountain of wisdom and knowledge.
The third root goes deep into Niflheim.
Beneath the roots are the springs Niflheim and the poison dragon Nidhogg.
According to Norse Mythology, on that day, the poisonous dragon Niedhogg bit off the third root of the World Tree and escaped from the realm of death.
The provenance of Norse Mythology has long been untraceable, it has existed for a long time, and no one knows who wrote it.
But Norse Mythology was known for many years when Norse Mythology was known.
Now, what the World Tree has opened seems to be the third root!
The third root, also known as the kingdom of death.
It's a place for all the souls of the dead.
And at this moment, Natsumi is being taken in.
Natsumi struggled frantically.
As she struggled, the spiritual power she gained from the World Tree, as well as her soul, were rapidly flowing back to the World Tree.
At this moment, a haze appeared in Xia Mi's eyes, as well as a deep sense of absurdity and fear.
What went wrong?
Everything seems so abnormal!
After coming here through the long darkness, I have already come out of the lost.
Bathing in the grace of God, the soul has already begun to grow.
Even if you don't get more authority from the World Tree in the end, this shouldn't be the case.
What about Li Yuanhao?
Natsumi couldn't help but think.
Has Li Yuanhao ever been dragged into the country of death?
Is Li Yuanhao's personality changing dramatically also because of the country of death?
The gates of hell are opening, and Natsumi can't help but think about it at all.
No matter how she struggled, no matter how much she resisted, she was finally dragged into the legendary realm of death.
...
...
"What's going on? Why is it so long? ”
"Li Yuanhao doesn't seem to have to take so long, right?"
"It's been three days, so there won't be a problem, right?"
"Could it be that the eggs of the first generation are not qualified?"
Lu Mingfei kept walking around Norton, looking worried, "You said that if the junior sister comes out and becomes a different person, should we kill our relatives in righteousness?" ”
"Normally, the promotion should have been over long ago." Norton also had a look of concern on his face.
"Hey, if you don't care about your man anymore, your man will run away with someone." Nono was sitting next to Eri Yi, looking at the anxious people over there and said.
Before Eri Yi could speak, Yuan Zhisheng on the side immediately said to Nuo Nuo seriously, "Miss Chen Motong, please don't talk nonsense, my sister will never like human traffickers!" ”
"Human traffickers?"
Yuan Zhisheng nodded heavily, and abducted Eri Yi several times, but he was not a human trafficker.
Yuan Zhisheng looked at Eriyi, "Eriyi, you are also in school, you have to learn to distinguish between right and wrong!" ”
Eri Yi blinked, looked at Lu Mingfei again, and sighed, "Brother, you have to be responsible for Miss Sakura, if you don't go back for so many days, Miss Sakura will be very worried, right?" ”
When everyone's mood began to be impetuous and uneasy, Norton's face changed suddenly.
Norton's changes have also brought attention to the safe house.
I saw that the safe house made of alloy and carved the alchemy matrix by Norton, at this moment, a door appeared on the wall!
It's as if the metals are automatically avoiding them.
From the open portal, there seemed to be a dark wind blowing that froze souls.
In everyone's sight, the girl's petite figure slowly appeared.
