Section 34: The Nature of God
It is only when one acknowledges that another person is an adversary that one uses words as swords and spears in battle.
Only when people are afraid that the monster in front of them will be difficult to defeat, will they use words to try to encourage themselves to be heroic.
After all, language has always been a sword and a gun that human beings are proud of. It has the power to defeat the strong with the weak and defeat the powerful opponent on the battlefield in the unexpected.
Just like the previous Zhao Fukong.
'Boom——! ’
The water that was confined suddenly exploded. The flame exterior of the fire demon's body faded completely, and only the smoke of the extinguished thing burst out wildly in all directions. It appeared unharmed, and it vigorously agitated the pair of jet-black wingclaws behind it that were no longer burning.
"Mortal things!" Its voice is so grand, and there is equal deterrence and coercion in the grandeur. Even if the shell no longer burned, the blazing flames still converged in the shape of a greatsword in its palm. From its horn-wrenched black jaw, its proclamation carries a great deal of power.
"Don't think that this will defeat the fire of Uton, and don't think that this will defeat a Maia! Your recklessness has brought destruction to you, and the end is about to fall on your heads! ”
Its language is not a futile demonstration of intimidation, and there is power in its words.
This power is called the spirit of words, but it can also be seen as some kind of curse, some kind of omen.
- Theocracy.
Jiang Yu was the first to perceive it—he saw the illusion of the Spear of Judgment breaking at the moment when the body blurted out this announcement. A huge but invisible sense of crisis gathered from above his head, and at some unexpected speed, it was about to fall towards the top of his head!
'Bell——! 'The spear of judgment collided with the sword of fire, and even if it was not evenly divided, at least it could be true that the confrontation that was only at the advantage of the strategy was actually presented to some kind of unbelievable side at this moment. The power of the giant sword in the fire demon's hand increased at least twice as much in the moment of the exchange. And the skills when swinging the sword are as old as ever!
The skill of unloading force cannot erase such a vast brute force. The most Jiang Yu could do was to try to keep the spear of judgment in his hand before the illusion turned into reality. His resonance had dominated this warspear, which was unimaginably strong for him at the moment. The effect of resonance is to transfer the injected force to another irrelevant place as a whole without damage.
The sword crushed the spear, and he fell towards the water.
The moment he touched the water, hundreds of square kilometers of cold pools connected with him in vibration. And this impact, which had suddenly increased by at least double its strength, was also transferred to this vast cold pool of thousands of square kilometers!
'Boom——!!!! ’
Thousands of square kilometers of water surface, boiling.
Millions of cubic meters of water burst.
They all rise and vaporize in shock and heat. And even though the hand of the water god has collapsed in the struggle of the fire demon, the living creature that exercises the power to control the water is still ready to attack in the water.
The dragon dances.
The waters of the cold pool turned into a tide of rainstorms that rose in reverse. The scattered bodies of water still contain the sacredness of fading evil. They slammed into the shell of the Flame Demon and weakened the ancient evil of the flames.
That's how they should be.
That's what they should have done.
However, they only came out of the water, but they evaporated within a few meters of the water after rising. Because at the very moment when they burst out of the water. They were greeted by a blazing sun that was falling at the same speed!
Don't think you can defeat Maia. 】
The end will fall on your heads. 】
More than one sun has fallen, and at the same time that it evaporates the rising rainstorm and sees the dragon dancing in the water as its target. Another blazing sun of the same size, which suddenly appeared in the underground sky, also fell towards the top of Jiang Yu's head who was repulsed!
This is theocracy.
The gods cannot be defeated, and those who attack them will be punished. The power of God is always higher than that of the attacker, and if you attack God's mortal things, the doomsday will fall overhead.
And Jiang Yu recognized it the moment he saw it.
- There are similar precedents.
- The Witch King of Angmar is cursed with invincibility, and no one (man) can bring it down.
- However, once its opponent becomes a Hobbit, or a woman, it will be defeated even more quickly.
This is the spirit of speech, the merits and deficiencies of the precepts. Activating it can certainly bring great power for a while. But this power is destined to bring irreparable gaps. Because language is inherently humanitarian, the greater the lack of humanity and the greater the lack of humanity, the greater the power it brings.
- The prefix for this precept is 'all things'.
- It has no intention of overcoming us with this flawed power...... It wants to escape.
Jiang Yu raised his hand, his eyes passing through the evaporating mist and the falling sun. He saw the pitch-black fire demon that no longer burned, and the color was dim. Seeing the depths of this fallen Maia, there is a candle flame floating that is about to be extinguished.
His raised hand turned into a constructed shield, and the end sun was strong, but it could not defeat it.
His eyes were fixed on the extinguishing candle, and he knew that the ancient evil in front of him was paying a huge price for the manifestation of divine power.
When the candle goes out, maybe the fire demon will die too? And every second of the operation of theocracy will make this candle flame blazing.
- It wants to escape.
- The means of escape is to make us think that it will not run away.
The thought turned. A vague direction suddenly appeared in Jiang Yu's mind. The thoughts of the Ancient Fire Demon were partly felt by him at this moment. And the silhouette of the nine-headed serpent flickered extremely quickly in the senses.
Hydra - Xiangliu's I don't know how much it is weakened.
Li Shuaixi was almost no threat to the fire demon at this moment. But as an attack target, it's large enough to be difficult to dodge.
What a perfect feint......
And just when the second end sun fell into the cold pool, forcing the dragon in the water to dodge and dodge. The dark body of the Flame Extinguishing Demon suddenly evaporated like a mist.
Convergence. Manifestation.
With a mighty sword-wielding posture, he suddenly slashed down towards one of the necks of the nine-headed giant snake!
'Bang——!!! ’
Space is not an obstacle for Jiang Yu. Defense, on the other hand, is conceptually not above the definition of 'attack'. The flaming sword of fire was obscured by the shield of the enchantment. And the Yan Demon's desire to take the opportunity to break the formation, and then the pace of strategic escape, was also blocked under the strong shield set up by Jiang Yu!
"Thou shalt not cross."
- I'm extraordinary.
Jiang Yu stared at the opponent in front of him, and the divine power in his body boiled violently, almost burning. After several purifications, he knew that the divine power in his body was only one step away from the true divine power associated with the blood of the S-rank god. Even if the difficulty of crossing is unimaginable, the absolute distance is only one step up and down.
He is not a god yet.
But he can no longer belong to the mundane. It is the same as the many things that have died in the twilight of life.
His body was now an unquestionable demigod. As long as it is fully activated or mastered by similar means, it can unleash a great power that ordinary people can hardly imagine.
But he couldn't do it yet – he knew he was missing something important in his heart. And he even knew what that key was, but he couldn't successfully get hold of it.
- Divinity.
The nature of God.
In the third generation, when someone lifts up a touch of death divinity from the top of the Iron Blood Pyramid, the main god will open the divinity to the reincarnators. Until then, however, the nature of the gods could only be acquired by the reincarnated beings who walked in the way of the gods.
- How do I acquire divinity?
Jiang Yu's body turned into a bubble when the space shattered. He shouted loudly and appeared wherever the Firefiend tried to storm it. Whether it is the huge Li Shuaixi or the tiny humanoid Zhang Jie. Even Cheng Xiao, who barely avoided the end of the sun and set off wind and waves to accumulate strength, was under the protection of his shield.
The Firefiend couldn't get past him.
It cannot attack the enemy, nor can it escape neatly from this battlefield. But it has patience, and it waits for some omission that the battle is bound to take.
It's strong, but not strong enough.
Thousands of exchanges were only in a moment, and the more he fought, the more Jiang Yu, who should not have the spare energy to be distracted in the battle, was thinking silently.
—What is the nature of God?
What are the properties of mortal things?
—How do we acquire the nature of God?
How to transcend the mundane?
Jiang Yu doesn't know, if he knows, then he is a god.
Jiang Yu only knew that he was only one step away from it, and that he knew that this power was obtained...... It's not too complicated.
Because there are many gods in the world, there are many in this world. And there are more outside of this world. And the vast majority of them, in war, in speculation, in research and development, in precipitation, the appearance they show is not much better than that of ordinary mortals.
A large part of them are more impatient than mortals, more lustful than mortals.
A large number of them are weaker than mortals, and will be defeated, imprisoned, dominated, and even stripped of their power by mortals.
Yet they are still gods...... With the authority of God, the mind of God. So...... Is it possible to think that in an infinite worldview. What is the real difference between gods and mortal beings is power and thought?
Jiang Yu had already possessed the power of thunder for a long time, and he could command the power of the sky as he pleased. And even now, he can schedule it according to his own ideas.
- Expand.
A thought.
The crimson minefield turned golden and spread out to the outside with thousands of dazzling thunderbolts. The unstretched minefield doesn't need to consume any of the power he holds. It's like the huge doom that will spawn out of thin air as long as the conditions are met, and then fall.
"Everything, stand down!"
The Thunder Domain could not restrain the Last Sun, and the rebuke of the Fire Demon could cause the gathered thunder to disintegrate in all directions like a frightened rabbit. And this sentence is also the spirit and the precept, and it is even applied to everything on this battlefield.
The water recedes under the rebuke, and the fog dissipates under the rebuke. Neither the light nor the shadow could get close to it, and even Zhan Lan, who had managed to recover a small part of his spiritual power, was the same!
Mistakes on the battlefield appeared.
It is not only the physical phenomena that are being rebuked and expelled. Even the reincarnators who support each other and watch over each other are the same!
The dragon was pressed to the bottom of the sea, and the serpent was driven to the other side. The mortal body of the telekinesis was ejected from the nearest battlefield along with the magician underwater.
Only Jiang Yu remained here. for he is mortal and yet transcendent to mortal. Beyond mortals, but not gods. Fallen Maia's authority can influence him but not dominate him, and if he tries to resist, it means that he cannot remove himself from the battlefield in resistance.
The plan to flee turned into a fierce killing move at this moment. The sword of flame, which was sharply retracted, slashed at the head of the defender in front of him with an unprecedented fiery attitude!
"Thou shalt ...... Die here! ”
The precepts and the spirit of the word are turned into shackles. Jiang Yu, who was unable to cross the space to avoid in the first time, was forced to face this extremely restrained and converging destructive force at this moment. He saw the extinction in the flames, and he saw his own destruction. Neither the shield nor the heavy armor could save him. His body would shatter and die under the sword.
He was forced to face it.
But he was not afraid of it.
Because the shield is still in the hand, because the power of protection is still in the heart.
And because he ...... Still thinking.
- Aside from power, what is the difference between mortal things and gods?
- Aside from power, what is the difference between me and the gods?
Exclusion has done enough. My previous self already knew that the difference was in the mind. So, where is the difference in thinking in this paragraph?
He didn't have an answer.
How can there be a reference answer to the road to the gods?
If the standard answer exists, then the gods can be mass-produced. There are countless quantities of them. However, this is not the case.
There is no answer.
But...... He was thinking. Think about what happened to Zheng Zhe before, and think about your own judgment of the argument that Zheng Zhe touched the fourth order.
Since the demons that the four beginnings need to face are because the heart of the short-lived seed cannot adapt to the body of the long-lived seed. Then, if it is based on the premise that gods and demigods can be compared to the four beginnings. Can the nature of God also be understood as the cognition, the thought, of the eternal thing?
Jiang Yu didn't know, but he felt that he could give it a try.
The Sword of Flame Extinction was approaching, and at this moment, he turned on his perception, not defense, to the maximum.
- I don't have an eternal heart.
- I don't know how to get an eternal heart.
- But...... This world, this world. It is undoubtedly something that lasts forever. And in this heavenly dome located underground, there are the most sketchy variables in this heaven and earth.
- So......
Before the sword struck the skull, the whispers of the people reached the ten heavenly firmaments.
This is a command, and a proclamation. It has a concise content.
"The world, connect with me."
Time freezes.
Everything glows here.
There are spirits floating on the water.
Turning golden, the giant tree is in the sky.
