Gods: Civilization Cultivation, Infinite War

Chapter 199 Treasure Hunt in the Spirit Realm
After being teleported to the spirit world, Solus was greeted by a scene of cataclysmic destruction as the heavens and earth collapsed.

In the material world, these legendary extraordinary beings could also see the entire spirit world gradually collapsing.

However, many legendary superhumans still couldn't see any specific changes in the internal environment.

It wasn't until Solus was transported to the interior of the spirit world through the spatial gate that he realized just how terrifying the collapse of such a spatial layer, independent of the material world, truly was.

This is not a natural disaster like an earthquake or tsunami, but a huge change at the most fundamental level of rules.

If it weren't for the protection of the rules of the legendary supreme divine realm, the entire material world would probably have been greatly affected.

At this moment, in the spirit world, countless lives are still uttering their final desperate cries.

The beings in the spirit world are all the followers of the old gods. After the fall of many old gods, their followers were also greatly affected.

But they did not become extinct; instead, they continued to live in the spirit world.

However, the spirit world is gradually collapsing, and the life forms in that spirit world are naturally facing annihilation.

In such a disaster, even high-level superhumans are not immune to danger.

Only legendary and extraordinary individuals can protect themselves, and even safeguard a portion of their relatives and friends.

The spirit world and reality belong to two different dimensions, while the rules of the spirit world remain intact.

Whether it's descending from the spirit world to the material world, or being transported from the material world to the spirit world, it's not an easy task.

However, the rules of the spirit world are gradually disappearing, and the legendary extraordinary beings of the spirit world can take this opportunity to descend to the material world and avoid this cataclysmic disaster.

As countless lives were lost in this disaster, Solaus's eyes showed little emotion.

After all, these spirit beings belong to the old gods' retinue, and they belong to two different factions from him.

Although he did not have faith in any of the gods of the Alliance of All Spirits, whether from a practical or emotional perspective, the Spiritforged race had become a part of the Alliance of All Spirits.

These old gods' retinues can no longer stir up any trouble.

But once they descend into the material world, if they cannot quickly recognize their situation, change their beliefs, or find another way out...

Then there would be no place for them in the entire material world.

Turning his gaze away from the spirit beings, Solus looked into the depths of the spirit realm.

After passing through the portal, Solus had a strange feeling and understood the purpose of the miracle brought down by the gods of time and fate.

It was all for the sake of those countless treasures buried deep in the spirit world.

Those are relics of the old gods, containing immense value, enough to tempt even the true gods.

However, many deities are also excluded by the rules and cannot enter the spirit world, otherwise it would cause a strong reaction from the spirit world, which would be a loss.

That is why a member of the Spiritforged race like him, who has no faith, was able to have the opportunity to go to the Spirit Realm to search for treasures.

Solus felt that he was not the only one who had received such an opportunity.

All legendary soul editors within the entire Spiritforged race should have been given this opportunity.

"coming!"

Solus's eyes lit up. Hundreds of kilometers away, a brilliant color suddenly appeared, shooting off into the distance like a shooting star.

Although they were hundreds of kilometers apart, the meteor did not come toward them.

But for Solaus, it was no different from being right next to him.

With just one step, Solus traversed hundreds of kilometers, his massive, almost tangible hand, formed from the power of his soul, directly grasping the meteor.

"Such a powerful impact."

Solus's eyes narrowed, somewhat surprised.

If some high-level superhumans were to try to intercept this meteor, they would probably be smashed to pieces without any chance at all.

Even a legendary superhuman might not be able to easily leave behind this shooting star.

If he had been just an ordinary legendary soul editor, and were hundreds of kilometers away, he might have truly missed out on this shooting star.

However, Solous was no ordinary legend; with a slight exertion of his Soul Hand, he easily suppressed the meteor.

The brilliant colors that enveloped the meteor gradually disappeared, revealing its true form.

It was a very ordinary-looking greatsword, without any fancy decorations or any powerful aura.

However, the fact that this greatsword remained intact during this disaster shows that it was no ordinary item.

With Thoraus's keen eye, he quickly determined that this was a legendary weapon.

Although the spirit world is said to be the paradise of the old gods, it is still mostly inhabited by the followers of those old gods.

Before the Supreme God Realm descended upon this crystal wall system, the wars throughout the material world had never ceased, and the wars between the various realms were endless.

Solus didn't know much about the spirit world, but if the material world was in such a state, the spirit world probably wasn't much more peaceful either.

The war between the followers of the Old Gods naturally includes legendary-level superhumans.

It's quite normal that after these legendary extraordinary beings fell, their legendary equipment would end up in the depths of the spirit world.

Now, this legendary piece of equipment, which had been lost deep in the spirit world, has finally seen the light of day again.

Even in the current All-Spirit Alliance, legendary-level equipment is not cheap.

Not only does it require a large amount of rare resources as materials, but most importantly, there are very few master-level blacksmiths who can forge legendary equipment.

Only the Federation of Ten Thousand Forges and the Dawn Empire within the entire Alliance of All Spirits possess a large number of master blacksmiths.

However, blacksmiths are different from scholars. They do not possess much extraordinary knowledge, and their strength is not directly related to the skills they have mastered.

Most master blacksmiths are only high-level superhumans, not legendary superhumans.

If one's own strength is insufficient, forging equipment of the corresponding level is naturally not so simple.

Most master blacksmiths can only forge one or two legendary-level equipment in their entire lives. These are their masterpieces, which also consume a lot of their energy and spirit.

After that, there was little hope of creating legendary equipment.

Therefore, even within the Alliance of All Spirits, every legendary superhuman has their own civilization as a backing.

Generally, one only has one or two legendary items to equip oneself, and owning a complete set of legendary equipment is extremely difficult.

Thorauth certainly possesses a complete set of legendary equipment, which allows him to unleash his full potential.

But this is because he is the founder of the entire Soul Editor system, a level seven scholar, and possesses top-tier legendary combat power, which is why he has such a foundation.

Other legendary soul editors, of course, did not have such favorable conditions.

The first treasure he acquired upon arriving in the Spirit Realm was a legendary weapon of considerable value, which brought a smile to Solous's face. He certainly didn't need the weapon himself, but he could certainly exchange it for other resources.

With so many legendary superhumans in the entire Alliance of All Spirits, they could easily consume a legendary-level weapon.

As a level seven scholar in the field of souls, Solous's research projects cover many unknown areas that the entire All-Souls Alliance has not yet explored.

Every unknown area requires a massive investment of resources to achieve any results.

Even with the support of various civilizations, the research institute often struggles to make ends meet and faces immense financial pressure.

A legendary piece of equipment is not enough to directly reverse the research institute's funding problems.

But at least for the foreseeable future, the research institute will be able to make a little more money.

Moreover, this is only the first gain. If this trip to the Spirit Realm yields a large amount of legendary-level equipment or resources of equal value...

For a long time to come, research institutes will not have to worry about research funding.

Thinking of this, Solus looked into the depths of the spirit realm again, and the smile on his face became even more pronounced.

For the next period of time, Solus searched for the treasures of the Old Gods in the spirit world.

He knew this was a very rare opportunity.

Those treasures were expelled from the depths of the spirit realm as the spirit realm collapsed, and scattered throughout the spirit realm.

As the spirit world gradually collapses, these treasures will be scattered throughout the material world.

By then, it will be impossible to obtain a large amount of treasure.

Perhaps only a few lucky ones will be able to find one or two pieces of the ancient god's treasure scattered in the material world.

During his search for the treasure, Thoraus did not encounter a single legendary Soul Editor of the Spiritforged race.

This is quite normal, though, as the spirit world is not as vast as the material world.

But it is still a complete dimension. Even though it is a super-large plane in the material world, its size is still very small compared to the spirit world.

Unless the God of Time and Fate deliberately brings these legendary Soul Editors of the Spiritforged race together, the probability of them meeting is very low.

Furthermore, Solus also discovered that those treasures were not everywhere; he was only able to obtain one upon arriving in the spirit world because of his good luck.

He could easily see treasures appearing hundreds of kilometers away or even further. Even so, after more than half a month, he had only found eight more treasures.

Each of these eight treasures is no less valuable than the legendary greatsword they initially obtained, so it can be considered a very fruitful haul.

However, Solus was not satisfied with this. Even if all nine treasures were sold, they wouldn't be enough to sustain the research institute for long.

They were transported here just as the spirit world was about to collapse, and now they are facing the treasures of countless ancient gods.

After spending more than half a month, he only obtained nine treasures, which was far below Solus's expectations.

According to his original plan, this trip to the spirit world was...

At the very least, it should be able to solve the research institute's funding problem, or at least allow him to gain enough to broaden his legendary path.

Only by achieving any one of these goals can this trip to the spirit world be considered worthwhile.

However, given the current situation, he sees little hope for either the research institute's funding or his own legendary path.

Thinking of this, Solus turned his gaze to the depths of the spirit world.

The closer you get to the depths of the spirit world, the more treasures you'll find there.

However, at this time, the depths of the spirit realm are also the most dangerous, and even legendary superhumans cannot guarantee their safety there.

Previously, just to be on the safe side, Solus had not ventured into the depths of the spirit world.

But Solus had a premonition that his time in the spirit world was running out.

Once the spirit world completely collapses, remaining here will only lead to its demise along with it.

Therefore, he had to leave the spirit world before that.

"Give it a shot..."

Without further hesitation, Solus headed straight for the depths of the spirit world.

He wasn't truly unafraid of death; he simply had enough confidence.

Although the depths of the spirit realm are dangerous, even legendary superhumans cannot guarantee their safety.

But that kind of danger usually only applies to ordinary legendary superhumans, and he is not an ordinary legendary.

As long as you are careful, you will definitely not encounter any major dangers in the depths of the spirit world.

Besides, he's not entirely dependent on himself.

Although he was not qualified to communicate with the God of Time and Fate, since the God of Time and Fate had teleported him to the Spirit Realm, he would most likely not abandon him.

Otherwise, if he hadn't received help from the other party when he left the Spirit Realm, he might not have been able to return directly to the Myriad Spirits Realm.

The God of Time and Destiny is revered by all citizens of the entire Alliance of All Souls not only because of the respect shown to Him by the various gods.

This is also because all the major civilizations have received His blessings to varying degrees.

Every civilization often produces extraordinary geniuses who lead the progress of an entire civilization or even the entire Alliance of All Souls.

The emergence of these geniuses is, to some extent, related to the god of time and destiny.

After all, the concept of fate is not some vague and unfounded belief, but a real fact.

The extraordinary individuals within various destiny systems are a good example of this.

And that god of time and destiny is a great being who holds the power of destiny.

The development of the entire All-Spirit Alliance is likely under their influence.

To say that Solaus's rise to prominence was entirely due to his own talent would be somewhat self-deceptive.

Solus felt that even if he encountered any danger, such a benevolent and great god would not abandon him.

Before long, Solus arrived at the depths of the spirit world.

During his treasure hunt deep within the Spirit Realm, Solus still did not encounter any Spiritforged legends, but he did encounter quite a few other legendary extraordinary beings.

However, since they didn't know each other, they naturally didn't have any intention of talking to each other.

On the seventh day in the depths of the spirit world, Solus intercepted another magnificent shooting star.

What appeared before him this time was a fragmented divine essence.
