It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 115 Arrival
at this moment.

A huge disaster fell from the sky in the form of a human.

Everyone could see that the endless light was not the sun, but a giant tree that blocked out the sun, with roots extending from the sky, pruners appearing, and a canopy-shaped structure forming on top.

This giant tree that occupied the entire world seemed to be on fire, bursting with heat and flames, extremely glorious and brilliant.

At the same time, the surface of the giant tree is covered with countless densely packed knotted ropes.

They are constantly flashing streams of light, injecting a restraining force called "Gaia" or "Alaya", doing their best to correct the giant tree's present world, trying to prevent the birth of the super life form nurtured inside the giant tree.

however……

The results are obviously not ideal.

Hundreds of millions of knotted ropes seem to be the embodiment of order and the symbol of time.

However, there were also an equal number of knotted ropes that were constantly breaking and tearing apart.

Just like this, sometimes entangled, sometimes repeated, sometimes broken, and sometimes reconnected.

In the constant repetition of "correction"——

It is like a huge tree species that wants to show the world, releasing light and heat unscrupulously, and showing its magnificent figure that overwhelms the world's glory to all visible and invisible things in this world without any scruples.

But this is only natural.

If the correction can be maintained stably, things that should not exist will not reappear.

But the fact at the moment is that the exiled things have returned to this side of the world. What this means is naturally self-evident.

In that desperate future, this fantasy tree that exclusively enjoys the magical power of the entire planet's earth veins has reached full maturity and has always maintained its ultimate form of "blooming". It is only comparable to the fantasy tree Magellan in the Greek Lostbelt described by Fujimaru Ritsuka.

The branches can almost cover the entire surface.

The root system is enough to hollow out the earth.

Of course, it is precisely because of this that this world directly triggers the joint "correction" of the two major restraining forces from humans and the planet, and is judged as not belonging to this side of the world and exiled as useless.

only--

After all, the restraining force is only a corrective force in direction. It does not have the ability to think independently, but is more like a self-discipline defense mechanism. Whether it is "Gaia" or "Alaya", they will only be activated for the purpose of prolonging the present world.

To put it simply, inhibition is a mousetrap.

You must never act spontaneously, only in response to phenomena that occur.

Because of this, they are short-sighted to a certain extent. They focus only on how to prolong the current world without considering the long-term direction of the future.

Just like "Alaya", as the collective unconsciousness of mankind and the will of primates as a whole, the only purpose of its actions is to prolong the survival of mankind, even if it means completely destroying the earth.

Of course, the reverse is also true.

For Gaia, its position is centered on the earth. As long as the earth is fine, it doesn't matter what happens to humans.

——This is the world’s own instinctive reaction.

——Because it is just instinct, the restraining force does not have the consciousness to think deeply, which also creates the current situation.

Densely packed knots, countless streams of light...

Like countless blood vessels clinging to a tree, or like tightly entwined mistletoe...

It kept breaking and cracking. As countless threads of light dissipated, countless more threads of light were generated...

But no matter what, there is no way to exile the magnificent World Tree again. Even its originally somewhat illusory outline is becoming more solid bit by bit, extending the trimmer through the traces left by someone in this side of the world.

This naturally caused a huge and severe impact.

----

----

"Hurry, hurry, take off immediately!"

"Attack! Attack now!"

“F[beep——]CK!! F[beep——]CK!!”

There was a scene of chaos in a certain military base. Because a precious sample of the Killing Hunter was preserved, it became one of the anchor points of this side of the world. Naturally, the Fantasy Tree extended its roots from the air as soon as possible.

The earth shook and the wind howled, as if it was the end of the world.

Because the fantasy tree chose to take root here, it caused this US military base to experience great turmoil.

Part of the base simply disappeared, and was replaced by an extremely huge tree root system. As if it had grown for countless years, the outline went from vague to clear, and from clear to solid, until it completely penetrated into this side of the world.

It’s like history has been changed, and reality is the first to be affected.

If such a huge root system continues to grow here, the terrain will inevitably change drastically and beyond recognition. When the terrain changes, the overseas bases built by the US military will also be affected!
Where the roots land, that part of the base becomes completely blank.

As for the affected areas around the edges, roads were broken and buildings collapsed.

Fortunately, shortly after the vision appeared, the military base had received orders from the Pentagon and was preparing to launch a tentative attack, so the fighter formations had already taken off before that.

Otherwise, even the airport would not be usable now.

However, this was meaningless. When the trembling pilot thought he was close enough and tremblingly fired the aerial bomb, the result was despair.

The attack went straight through the outline of the giant tree.

Although they reacted quickly and turned to attack the solid roots, the several tons of guided missiles had little effect, leaving almost no charred marks on the hard-shelled "bark". "F【beep——】CK!!"

Subconsciously uttering the classic curse, one of the pilots stared ahead with despair, staring at the huge tree trunk that seemed like an eternal magic wall between heaven and earth.

From the huge cracks in the bursting "bark", "that thing" can be seen inside.

That is a "person"...

Or rather, something vaguely humanoid...

This giant tree is like some kind of biological petri dish, and the contents inside are about to be born.

----

----

How much time has passed since then?
At this moment, in the stopped time, he was thinking calmly.

It has clearly gone through a very complicated evolution, but it always feels like it happened just a moment ago.

Maybe it was because he was used to it. He had long been accustomed to such situations, going through thousands of cycles in a relatively static state. This kind of thing had become as natural as thinking, and he accepted it calmly.

Although for this side of the world, only seven days had passed.

——Seven days.

It is said that it took God seven days to create the world.

So, can he bring a new world on this seventh day?

Just like the invisible shell is breaking, the invisible skin is peeling off, when "that thing" inside the fantasy tree begins to think, it means that it has fully awakened. The moment it realizes this fact -

The giant tree that blocked out the sun dimmed.

All the light and brilliance flowing on the surface of the giant tree began to dissipate, disappearing bit by bit.

There was no longer any surging heat and flames to fight against the endless number of knots on the periphery. Instead, taking this opportunity, the knots that seemed to symbolize the chains of order and correction force shrank densely.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the entire giant tree was wrapped tightly, like a cocoon beyond imagination.

And it is still shrinking and tightly wrapped around.

It seems the outcome has been decided.

However, at this time.

——Bang!

—Bang, bang! Bang, bang, bang!!

Like the pulsation of some great life, everyone seemed to hear the heartbeat that seemed to come from the distant horizon, yet seemed to linger around them, echoing in their ears and souls.

Again and again, sound after sound.

Along with the rhythm of the heartbeat, the big cocoon continued to expand and contract, as if it was moving in rhythm with the frequency of the heartbeat.

As my heartbeat became more and more rapid, as frequent as the beating of a drum, the frequency of the cocoon's expansion and contraction also became faster and faster...

Finally, with a heartbeat reaching its climax—

All the knotted ropes burst apart, and the entire cocoon was torn into pieces. At the same time, a figure with a crown and nine auras, like a successful immortal, stepped out of it and looked down at the earth from above the blue sky.

The big cocoon slowly dissipated, and countless light particles danced between heaven and earth, slowly disappearing in the light.

And when the light completely disappeared, the huge imaginary tree did not reappear.

Only the strong presence of that figure was announcing to everyone.

Xia Zhi raised one hand and looked at his palm.

The magical resources in the earth veins have been enjoyed exclusively for 1,200 years, and there is no competitor on the entire planet. As a result, the fully mature fantasy tree has unimaginable power. The only drawback is that the fantasy tree has no consciousness, only basic survival instincts...

It is difficult to effectively exert subjective initiative and utilize this tremendous power.

Therefore, it is difficult to resist the joint correction of the two major restraining forces.

however--

Although the Imagination Tree itself has no consciousness, now, Xia Zhi is the consciousness of the Imagination Tree.

Just like when a Heroic Spirit materializes, it first acquires a Spirit Core. The Spirit Core is wrapped in a "body formed by magic power" and the Heroic Spirit materializes.

Because in the beginning, his intelligence backup was based on the magic seed of the Fantasy Tree, which was regarded as a landing capsule. After the seed took root, sprouted, and grew, the intelligence backup continued to be stored in the core of the Fantasy Tree.

In a sense—

The trunk of the imaginary tree is his physical body, his spiritual foundation;

His information is the consciousness of the Fantasy Tree, its spiritual core.

Just as Fujimaru Ritsuka told us, in the Greek Lostbelt, the alien god attempted to use the fully mature imaginary tree Magellan as a vessel for his descent and incarnation, and to create his own body.

It's a pity that the Alien God failed...

Xia Zhi avoided the other party's failure factors and replicated the successful experience in this world.

　Only one update today... sorry.
