Chapter 960: The Oldest in history...the Abyss Ancestor
If you put aside the dissonance around it, this is really a very beautiful place.
What we are now in is a crystal jungle that seems to be located in the underground space. The "crystal jungle" here is not just a metaphor, but refers to the place where flowers, plants and trees made of crystal are really growing everywhere. , there are lush and thick towering ancient trees, dense clusters of low shrubs, and even white translucent grass stems and wild flowers. These dazzling array of "plants" are just like ordinary lush forests in form, but they are all Made of white translucent crystal texture, the entire crystal jungle is filled with crystal clear white. Even the ground under my feet is covered with fine sand that feels like soil but has a texture like crystals. I looked around here for a moment. After a while, I felt a little dazzled. The scene in front of me was as if the whole world had turned into an ice sculpture, with strange beauty, even so beautiful that it was thrilling.
But in such a beautiful environment, the surroundings are filled with the ubiquitous hostility and oppression. This disgusting feeling is somewhat familiar, but before Father God opened his mouth to explain, I did not make a hasty judgment—— After all, this conjecture is too sensational.
"You are right, this place feels really uncomfortable..."
I looked around and couldn't find the source of the feeling of oppression. It was as if there was so much hostility in all directions that I couldn't find the source at all. A large number of protoss sentries can be seen standing guard or patrolling in the crystal jungle. It is obvious that we are walking in a heavily guarded place. And as we continue to move forward, the unpleasant feeling of depression has become stronger and stronger.
Father God was not far ahead leading the way. The unfriendly atmosphere around him seemed to have very little impact on him, and he seemed to have become accustomed to it.
"This phenomenon will only occur at certain times, and then this place will be under complete martial law," God Father tilted his head slightly and explained to me, "Normally, the Crystal Jungle is a good place, and it is the most beautiful place in the God Realm. One. My daughter Gadie was born here.”
I was stunned for a moment, looked around at the environment that was not suitable for having a child, and muttered: "Sister-in-law is really romantic."
"No, Jiadi is not Sola's child," Father God smiled slightly, "Neither are the two daughters."
I coughed suddenly: "Ahem...oh, what...is there a sister-in-law?"
Relax and relax when you are with God the Father. But I still feel particularly embarrassed when talking about some topics. Anyway, Father God’s family is quite chaotic. Because it is said that all the gods in the Star Territory were created by him. So now Father God's wife, the Supreme Dark Goddess, is also his daughter, and Father God also has a pair of real twin daughters. Now these two daughters are not born of the Dark Goddess. So how should the two young ladies be reckoned with the Dark Goddess? Should I call her sister or mom? Then will Father God have another wife in the future? How should this be calculated?
I spent a long time scribbling formulas back and forth but could not come up with a complete relationship diagram. I only came to one conclusion: if I really continue to infer this, I am afraid that Father God will become the second person after me to call himself uncle - I guess everyone still has Remember that I once made a formula for how a group of people in my family should call each other. Now it seems that apart from ethical issues, the interpersonal relationships around me are not much clearer than Father God...
"You are thinking too much," Father God seemed to be able to tell at a glance what topic I was going off on. He didn't take it seriously, he just smiled lightly. "I only have Sola as my wife. Jiadi and Cyndia have no mothers. They were born from my sword."
...After confirming that I heard correctly, the image of Father God in my mind suddenly became particularly powerful, because this was the first time I heard about someone who could give birth to a child with Yi Leng Weapon...
"It seems that you are overthinking it again," Father God said, dumbfounded as he watched the various expressions on my face scrolling. "God's life form is quite special. The reason why Jiadi and Cindia are called my daughters is , it just happened to be created by me... Forget it, this topic is endless to explain. If you have time, you can go to the Temple of Life to find Jia Jia. She has an encyclopedia of life in the God Realm. You should understand it after reading that. .”
What Father God said may be right, but I still feel that these true gods are simply too incredible. Based on my own worldview, if I continue to figure out the world of the gods, I might have to go directly to a mental hospital when I go back, so I decisively discuss this topic. It stopped.
"Whoa, whoa-"
When I was having some random thoughts, a slight sound of water suddenly came to my ears, which made me focus my attention again. Only then did I realize that I had unknowingly followed Father God to a special place in the Crystal Jungle. The place seems to be...an underground lake?
A large blank space suddenly appeared in the white crystal jungle like a world of ice and snow. There were no plants or shrubs blocking the road in front of it. Instead, there was an underground lake that was surging slightly like mercury. The breadth of the lake was jaw-dropping— —I can’t even see where the other side of the lake is!
Of course, someone may ask me how I can tell that this is an underground lake rather than an underground ocean when I can't see the lake shore at all. In fact, this is not difficult - there is a sign next to me that says "Please pay attention to the underground lake ahead." "Woolen cloth……
"The water here is quite shallow," I took out a small stick and poked it on the water. "Well, it's not just shallow, it's just a layer of water! Is there ice underneath?"
I originally thought that this underground lake, whose depth could not be seen under various light and shadow effects, might be very deep, but I didn't expect that after poking it twice with a small stick, I suddenly discovered that its "water depth" was less than one centimeter, and the silver on the surface was actually less than one centimeter. The sparkling light interfered with my vision, and the strange energy surrounding me also made it difficult for my mental perception to function normally. I was actually deceived by a mirror with a watery skin...
"Deepness and shallowness have no meaning here, because the bottom of the Crystal Lake is conceptual. It is infinitely deep and infinitely shallow. Its 'bottom' depends on the soul of the visitor. The purer the soul, the shallower the Crystal Lake will be for it." . Of course, this restriction is useless to void creatures. Our souls are at the same level as the void. In front of you and me, the Crystal Lake is almost non-existent." Father God led me forward, and the two of them fell on the same level. There were gentle sounds of water on the "lake" with a layer of water. "This is to prevent people from entering danger by mistake - people who do not meet the standards cannot pass the Crystal Lake, not even gods. These lakes have My power is enough to stop anyone who breaks into this place without permission."
I thought about it and said to myself that it was lucky that Lilina didn't follow, otherwise I would have been busy salvaging the girl with Father God at this time...
"Don't be anxious, we're just ahead." Father God looked at me a little distracted, knowing that I was anxious to know what I came here to see, but his tone was still unhurried. "You have to learn to wait patiently, as a void creature. This is essential. One day you will find that you have infinite time to complete any plan, but you don't realize this yet."
In fact, I would like to say that I have always considered myself a very patient person. I can think about my artistic life for ten minutes while making instant noodles, but after thinking about it, being distracted may not be the same thing as being patient. Of course, the more important thing is that I No matter how patient he was, he couldn't compare with the great man in front of him who often planned for 500 million years, so he decided not to say anything. Be obedient and be taught - I was a creature of the void just now, but these other creatures of the void have been around for who knows how many billions of years. It doesn't hurt to listen to some experience from the old timers.
As I walked, I noticed that something was not right about the surrounding environment, and the depressing feeling became stronger and stronger. And now we can clearly feel that this atmosphere comes from under our feet. The surrounding crystal light has become much dimmer than before. Even the crystal jungle in the distance seems to have entered dusk, and the lake under our feet is gradually turning black.
"We are here." Finally, Father God stopped, and we are now completely far away from the lake shore. The vast and chaotic sky is as dim as dusk. The crystal jungle in the distance seems to have submerged into the night, covered by a layer of strange black shadows. Covered, there was a black-purple mist floating in the air, and there was no sentinel nearby. And under our feet, the lake water had changed from the beginning to look like a trace of ink, and turned into a large area of gray and black. In front of us, There was something under the lake a few meters away. It was a huge black circle, as breathtaking as a black hole. It was so huge that I couldn't even see the opposite boundary. I had to look both ways to distinguish the black hole. The arc of the edge.
This weird situation was so shocking that I finally couldn't help but ask: "What the hell is this? Why do I feel so like..."
"This is the core surface at the lowest level of the God Realm," Father God turned to me and smiled slightly, "and the one in front of you is the oldest existing abyss gate in the void."
"Holy shit!" As soon as Father God's voice fell, I couldn't help but let out a strange scream. I raised my legs and jumped ten meters away. "You put this thing in your basement to raise a little one?!"
Father God's shoulders twitched obviously, and then he turned to look at me helplessly: "Don't be so nervous, it's not dangerous, and haven't you noticed, the abyss environment here is different from what you usually feel - it's very gentle .”
When the other party said this, I calmed down. After feeling it carefully, I found that it was indeed the case. Although the surrounding environment was definitely not comfortable, it was not as depressing as in front of the real gate of the abyss, which made me want to pick up six bags. The combined cannons fired at it. Compared with the normal abyss, this place was considered mild. Of course, more importantly, the black round shadow under the water looked very stable. It did not explode like the abyss gates I had seen before. sign. The surrounding atmosphere is not like an ordinary abyss, which is one of the reasons why I have always had doubts but never made a judgment.
"What is going on? The bottom of the God Realm? The Gate of the Abyss? I said this development is too thrilling and suspenseful - by the way, you captured the Gate of the Abyss here for research?"
Father God hurriedly summoned himself from the Shadow City to the God Realm. What he wanted to show me turned out to be a suppressed Gate of the Abyss. This gave me a very strong stimulus at the beginning. After all, any normal person None of them put this thing in their own basement - the lowest level of the God Realm, isn't this the basement. I thought that I had been entangled in all kinds of troubles all day long, that I had been tempered to the point where a mountain would collapse in front of me without changing my expression, and that my nerves were so strong that if not peripheral necrosis, I would still be at least half facial paralyzed. But now I know, in this world, There is never a shortage of things that will shock you to the point of scolding you, especially as a Father God who has lived for who knows how many billions of years and plans to live for who knows how many more billions of years. The big brother in front of me has enough surprise reserves, enough for me to go to Sparta for National Day next year...
Of course, although it is quite shocking that the Star Realm God Realm retains an abyss gate, maybe this thing has a very normal meaning of existence. For example, it may be a sample used by the gods for research, or it may It's a trophy obtained by Father God after a certain battle with someone - similar things actually exist in the Shadow City, but I usually put that thing in the extreme laboratory, which is placed on the boundary of the void. There was at least one legion soldier standing guard next to it, and every mosquito that entered had to undergo ultrasound three times before being let in. Now that I think about it, I did see a lot of protoss warriors standing guard along the way. That should be it. To guard the gate of this abyss.
There is just one thing that still makes people very concerned: Father God said that this is the oldest Gate of the Abyss existing in the void. Putting such a great title on an even more remarkable thing like the Gate of the Abyss cannot help but make people think. Lian Lian - if Father God hadn't coughed twice to bring back my thoughts that had drifted to the end of the void, I would have filled up my mind with more than three million words...
"You know. The God Realm is a very special place."
Father God pulled me and stood very close to the gate of the abyss. It looked like I could jump right in if I took half a step forward - of course this must be an illusion. This crystal lake suppresses the Gate of the Abyss. It is also divided into two parts from the space on the lake. Although the dark hole can be seen with the naked eye, you will not really fall in even if you walk around on the lake. Of course, Lilina may be a Exception, I don't think this dying old antique Gate of the Abyss can be darker than that little girl who's black to the brim.
"The Divine Realm is divided into many levels, and the space you see has infinite extension, but these infinite spaces also slowly evolved with the gradual development of the Divine Realm. When it was first created, it was a A very simple space. The crystal jungle you see is the first level of the God Realm. This crystal lake is as old as the entire God Realm. In fact, there is another place deep in the jungle. If you have time, you can go there by yourself. Come and take a look, that’s where I rested after I created the God Realm. It’s a very simple hut, but now it’s surrounded by children as a holy place.”
Father God had pride on his face when he talked about this, and I looked around. Although the light here seemed dim and full of weird colors, far away from the gate of the abyss, the Crystal Jungle was a place with monotonous colors. The white world, so he couldn't help but said: "Well, it seems that the divine world was quite simple at first."
Father God scratched his hair: "I had no experience at that time, so I forgot to color it after I finished it. Later, when I thought about it, I just left it like that. The children are used to it and it's not easy to change it."
I think I should recommend Father God to communicate with Pao Pao. That girl changes emojis for Shadow City every three days on average. Where can you ask those people who are used to nostalgia to reason?
"This Gate of the Abyss -" I cautiously stretched out my feet and stepped on the lake in front of me. I found that the black shadow under the water was indeed suppressed by a layer of something and was completely out of reach. Then I felt relieved. "Is it the trophy you used for research?"
To my complete surprise, Father God actually shook his head: "No, it is part of the God Realm. It has existed here longer than this Crystal Jungle. In fact, before I started to create the God Realm, it It’s already taking shape.”
I resisted not jumping back more than ten meters again: Everyone, this is a historic moment, I am stepping on the ancestors of the abyss!
Now is not the time to talk about this!
"Are you building a house on top of the abyss?!" I could feel that there were almost no muscles on my face that were not twisted. Looking at Father God's harmless smile, I felt like I was the same as when I first saw the principal in person ten years ago. The home visits were just as scary.
"I know this is incredible. Everyone who knows this news for the first time has the same reaction as you, including several other human kings who have been to this Crystal Jungle - of course, you who came to this position with me It is the first one. This ancient abyss gate has always been in a stable state. Its properties are very special... it is almost harmless. In the beginning, it was much larger than it is now, almost equivalent to the frozen continent of the God Realm. It's vast, and I later compressed it into this. Recently, the activity of the Gate of the Abyss has begun to increase again, and it's in a very unusual state, and something concerning has happened... I guess maybe it has something to do with me recently. One of the things we are studying is related to whether the last cycle of the void really existed..."
"Wait a minute," I quickly interrupted, "Why can't I understand what the previous cycle and this cycle mean?"
"Void is the combination of all things, so it has all possible concepts, and therefore does not have all describable characteristics," Father God said, sitting down casually, completely ignoring the layer of "water" under his feet. , he also invited me to sit with him. I hesitated for a while before following him, but I was surprised to find that the "water" of Crystal Lake did not stain my clothes at all. "Therefore, many people always think that the void is eternal and unchanging—— From a mortal perspective, this judgment is correct. The void they can understand has never changed and will never change. However, for me, you, and that crazy girl Huron, the void is completely different. "
My expression changed, and the first thing that immediately came to my mind was: It turns out that the Huron God Clan’s God King is actually a girl.
At such a serious moment, my first thought was this. Instantly, I felt a heavy sense of guilt. It seemed that I could not be trusted in this life.
"The entire void should be reshuffled every once in a while. The reason is unknown, the cycle is unknown, the results are unknown, and it's not even clear whether it really happened." Of course Father God didn't know that my brain started to twitch again at this time. , just talking to himself, each character began to make people jump with fear, "For the void, this process should have happened countless times. Of course, you can also think that it only happened once, because every cycle After that, everything will be cleared and restarted, and no one can explain the state of the connection between the two cycles. Even I am not sure of the specific meaning of all this. I just explained the process with that crazy girl from Huron. It’s called—the Great Cataclysm of the Void.”
"The three Void Creatures, including you and me, have never experienced this event. It can be considered that we were born after the last cycle, and the abyss gate in front of you may be the only one from above. Something that remains from a cycle to this day.”
(Because I was really exhausted, I have been debating whether to take a day off today. I started debating it at 6:30, and then decided to give up this good opportunity to save a manuscript - I may have been forced. Symptoms.) (To be continued)
