Cataclysm King.

Chapter 623 Understanding the ‘World’

After Ji Xun realized that he was also an "awakened one", he realized why he looked familiar to Princess Sophia before.

It seems that their souls in some high-dimensional world should know each other.

This inexplicable sense of familiarity also gave the two a basic foundation of trust.

In the mid-air of the ruins, the evil dragon Marodis and the "Ghost Crow Warlock" Cole, who had transformed into a big crow, were fighting fiercely.

Various elemental forbidden spells and dragon's breath clashed, creating a wave of elemental shock waves higher than the previous.

This is already a duel at the pinnacle level in this world.

A realm above legend.

Ji Xun was amazed when he saw it.

Originally, for him, a great knight, this should have been the highest realm he pursued throughout his life.

But I don’t know why, but after killing the legendary assassin just now, I suddenly felt that this one person and one dragon seemed to be just like that.

It's unexpectedly powerful, not something indescribable.

Originally, Sofia planned to take advantage of the chaos and leave. After hearing Ji Xun say that he could understand the black magic runes in the ruins, the two of them quietly moved towards the huge pyramid again.

Fortunately, there was the evil dragon Marodis above to attract firepower, which also allowed the two of them to smoothly come into contact with the black stones engraved with runes.

Now it seems that this ruin is the [Tower of Ascension] built by the legendary black magician named Nan Shenyu three thousand years ago.

Ji Xun is also curious about what those former awakeners discovered.

Is this pyramid really capable of ascending to the gods?

The two of them walked around to the side of the pyramid facing away from the battle.

Although Ji Xun could understand it, it was too complicated and numerous, and it was difficult for the brain to accept such complicated information.

And there were too many runes. Just where they were, the side of the pyramid was nearly two kilometers long. The black stones piled up one after another are all carved with runes.

,,,,,,,☉

These symbols point to the elements, space, earth, fire, stars, antiquity, curse, convergence, disintegration, and sublimation.

Wait for content related to extraordinary magic.

The amount of information contained is huge.

It takes a long time to read a few lines of runes. If you really have to read them bit by bit, I'm afraid it will take several years to finish reading all the runes on the pyramid.

Ji Xun did not rush to decipher the contents on the stone tablet one by one, but walked all the way over.

He felt that there should be some "instructions" left by the builder.

really.

Not long after leaving, he saw a sentence in a corner of the pyramid that looked like an epitaph: "My heart is toward the stars, the world is like a dream, all my wishes are true; tomorrow is a gift, my heart is the universe."

And after that sentence there is another sentence "To my best friend Nan Shenyu".

Seeing these words, Ji Xun seemed to see a person in front of his eyes. He had stopped here for a long time three thousand years ago.

Come to see your old friend.

The name signed on the stone tablet is a scrawled symbol of a light.

Ji Xun saw it in that travel book.

That is the symbol "Farlow" often uses to replace his signature.

Although there are only two simple lines of words, the sincere remembrance of my good friend is revealed between the lines.

It seems that this ruin was already there when Farlow arrived.

And Nan Shenyu is dead.

"really."

Ji Xun saw this inscription and confirmed his thoughts.

The bard Farro from three thousand years ago knew the black magician Nan Shenyu.

Both of them were human beings who stood at the pinnacle of the world in that era, and they were both "awakened ones".

Sofia on the side looked at the inscription written in Common Language and didn't understand what it meant.

She glanced at Ji Xun, who was deep in thought, and asked, "What is this?"

Upon hearing the inquiry, Ji Xun said with a serious expression: "This is a rune compiled by the Law of Destiny. It means that the awakened ones will eventually be guided by fate to come to this Tower of God."

He can understand it because "I am the world."

This is a secret text that Farlow left for those who are proficient in this secret method to understand.

Only then did Ji Xun realize that it was no coincidence that he was able to find this ruins and get that travel book.

Rather, the seniors who had awakened used their understanding of the laws of fate to weave a path that would guide those who came after them in the right direction.

One day, fate will let them find this place.

Princess Sofia was thoughtful and asked: "So, there is a secret about this altar?"

"Um."

Ji Xun nodded.

Farlow left a sentence above: "The logic of this world is missing a part, and the universe that the tower points to is the 'flaw in the world.'"

Nan Shenyu and Farlow are close friends, but the strange thing is that one is a wanted black magician all over the continent, and the other is a bard who travels around the world.

Like lights and shadows.

Together we protect these ancient traditions.

They were not the first batch of awakeners, but they were the key figures who took over the torch passed down by their predecessors.

The inscription shows that this [Tower of Ascension to the Gods] is also the crystallization of the wisdom of many generations of pioneers.

For example, the bricks and stones of this golden building are not only engraved with runes, but also the names of the pioneers.

At the same time, Ji Xun felt extremely emotional. Without the guidance of the awakened seniors, he felt that he might have spent his whole life in a state of confusion, thinking that the world he saw was the real world.

Or, when he stops being a mercenary, he will travel around the world and perhaps discover some of the laws of the world.

But by then, it may be too old.

The predecessors have used their efforts from generation to generation to make it possible for Ji Xun, a latecomer, to come into contact with the truth of the world in a short period of time.

Ji Xun finished reading what Farlow left.

The general meaning is that the world is like a glass bottle. People living in this world are like little people in a bottle, always thinking that this is the real world.

But Farlow's deduction found that the world was complete, and there were some cracks on the bottle that didn't exist for some unknown reason.

Getting closer to this crack allows people to perceive the existence of the "real world" more clearly.

This is also the meaning of the existence of this ruins.

But it's not all good news.

There is also a warning on the stone tablet:

"My best friend built this 'God Climbing Tower' to allow people to touch the power of awakening. But unfortunately, once this altar is activated, it will be immediately discovered by the Seven Gods Sect."

"Later I was sure that it touched some kind of rule of the world's will. Once an awakened person tries to contact the high-latitude world, it will be triggered. Don't regard those believers of the Seven Gods as human beings. They are just a series of high-latitude will to prevent The 'restriction' of the truth of the world that the awakened ones touch."

Seeing this, Ji Xun completely understood why the people from the Holy See came so promptly.

It seems that it is not just intelligence, but also guidance from "God".

When Ji Xun saw this, he also felt Farlow's helplessness when he carved this text into his mind.

No matter how powerful the Awakened One is, how can it fight against the entire Seven Gods Sect?

Of course Farlow thought of it, and he wrote the following: "Although this discovery is very disappointing, it also has a good side. There is an inherent rule in this world. That is, the will of the world cannot personally kill the awakened ones, it can only Intervene within the rules of this world."

Ji Xun also understood immediately.

If the world is a completely sealed bottle, then Cushman & Wakefield's "big hand" cannot penetrate deep into the glass bottle, otherwise the bottle will be completely broken.

"Of course, the biggest intervention in this world for the awakened is life span.

I am basically certain that when our projected consciousness dies, the high-latitude soul will also collapse.

This is a dead end.

The power I have encountered so far is not enough for me to fully understand the truth of the world.

And I have begun to age. No matter how I deduce it, I will never be able to see the truth of the world in my life.

I leave it to you, the brave man of the future. "

Ji Xun saw the last words left by Farlow with an extremely serious expression.

Princess Sophia on the side did not expect that the mercenary she met was not only an awakener, but could actually read ancient secret texts such as movements.

She asked, "So, what do we do now?"

Hearing this, Ji Xun fell into deep thought.

Now that this ruins has been discovered by the Seven Gods Sect, if you want to survive, the best choice is to escape.

But this ruin will inevitably be destroyed.

To build such a spectacular [Tower of Ascension to the Gods] may not be possible in one generation.

But it takes many generations and countless resources to accumulate it.

It is no exaggeration to say that this may be the only opportunity in their lives to come into contact with the truth about the world.

When Ji Xun thought of this, the corners of his mouth curved in a strange way.

I can no longer hold back the crazy idea that I don’t know where it came from.

He handed the travel diary to Sophia and said: "This travel diary uses the 'Thirteen Dice Encryption Method' and contains some secrets about the world. Take it with you and leave here."

This is the only thing he can do now.

Someone needs to be alive to get what happened here out.

Sophia vaguely guessed something and asked in surprise: "What about you?"

After pondering for a moment, Ji Xun said: "I plan to activate this divine tower."

Rather than being wanted by the Holy See and going into exile, it is better to try desperately and see what the truth of the world is.

"ah?"

Hearing this, Sophia looked surprised.

However, before the two of them could say anything, a crow flew above them.

In the blink of an eye, the crow turned into a ball of black fire and flew towards the two of them. This is the Archbishop "Ghost Crow Warlock" Cole planning to kill and silence him!

"Bang!"

The fireball exploded above the two of them, and a terrifying high temperature swept over them.

Ji Xun instinctively used his fighting spirit to block, but found a trace of incomprehensible black threads piercing the fighting spirit and piercing into his flesh and blood.

In the blink of an eye, his entire body seemed to be on fire, his skin was charred and cracked, and he was about to burn himself on the spot.

The power of God!

Ji Xun realized that this was definitely not something that a great mage could do.

At this critical moment of life and death, the miraculous healing power that appeared when his throat was wiped appeared again.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Xun found that his body had completely healed.

Sofia on the side saw this and her expression was startled.

Before she could say anything more, the two noticed more and more crows flying towards them.

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

Moreover, the noise of fighting originally on the opposite side of the pyramid also came here.

Ji Xun shouted loudly: "Hurry up!"

"Okay, take care!"

Sophia gritted her silver teeth, said no more, turned around and left.

Ji Xun looked at the crows and did not block them this time.

Although this magical crow is powerful, its flying speed is not necessarily faster than him.

He did not go towards the corridor of the ruins that he escaped from, but rushed straight up towards the pyramid.

Several black crows were chasing after him.

And it's not just the crows. I don't know if the will of the world realized what Ji Xun was going to do and triggered some rules to intervene. In the blink of an eye, several crows behind him merged into one and turned into the "ghost crow magician" "Cole!"

"Coming for me!"

Ji Xun felt the cold murderous intent on his back, and he secretly thought it was bad.

This guy is now blessed by the will of the gods and is not an ordinary great mage at all.

In the blink of an eye, the staff in Cole's hand lit up, and the crow-like eyes flashed with luster. From dozens of meters away, Ji Xun found that the clothes on his body were on fire!

"Damn it!"

This is the same as the black line that ran into the body before, it is a high-level flame law.

If it's a move, it can be cracked, but this kind of locking magic can only be resisted.

Ji Xun's current abilities simply cannot handle this kind of spell erosion.

If we really have to fight head-on, none of the ten of us will have any way to survive.

Ji Xun's whole body was burning with eternal black fire at this moment, and even the miraculous healing could not offset this bone-eroding pain.

It feels like a person is running, and the **** of death is chasing after him, and he will die suddenly at any moment.

However, at this time, a high-pitched dragon roar sounded.

In a blink of an eye, a black shadow quickly passed over his head.

Ji Xun instantly felt cool all over his body due to the crazy blowing. When he looked again, he saw that the black fire had been blown out?

He also didn't expect that the evil dragon Marodis, who had fought a fierce battle before, would actually save him?

At the same time, a low and majestic warning came to my ears: "Boy, I don't know who you are. But since you are the awakened one, we are not enemies. There are many people outside the ruins, and I also feel that several other members of the Seven Gods Sect The will of a **** has also arrived. What you want to do, it’s best to do it as soon as possible, and I can help you delay it for a while.”

Can the dragon talk?

Ji Xun was slightly surprised when he heard this.

But I also understand that this guy wants to risk his life to try. If it sees that the situation is not right, it will definitely run away.

However, complaints are complaints, that’s what he thought anyway.

With the help of this evil dragon to stop Archbishop Cole, Ji Xun instantly felt as light as a swallow and rushed to the top of the pyramid in one go.

At the tip of the thousand-meter-high pyramid, there is a black spire with a clearly different color.

The spire is engraved with the image of an eye, which is the all-knowing eye and represents wisdom in magic runes.

Ji Xun reached out to touch the eyes, but as soon as he reached out, he found that his body could not move.

At some point, a large group of Vatican clergy wearing white robes appeared under the pyramid.

As if some kind of space magic was used, he rushed here all of a sudden.

With just this glance, Ji Xun saw at least seven or eight archbishops and felt something bad in his heart.

This posture is already a fatal situation.

Unable to move his body, he immediately realized something: "Mind control? Is it mind transfer?"

Taking a closer look, the black-skinned archbishop with a seductive face was none other than Simon Burnie, the famous spiritual mage of Black Rose Atria, known as the "Spiritual Banshee" in the mercenary world.

A guy who is good at psychic control.

It is precisely because of this mental ability that Ji Xun can be controlled from a distance.

In this moment of stiffness, Ji Xun clearly felt as if another person's soul had appeared in his mind.

Like a snake, she wrapped tightly around Ji Xun's consciousness, making it impossible for his body to move.

This kind of mental control is simply impossible to break for a great knight who is only good at physical and fighting spirit training.

Originally, Ji Xun was ready to die in despair.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the abnormal consciousness entered his mind, and suddenly countless "chains" came out, locking this guy tightly.

"I am the world?"

Ji Xun suddenly realized that I, the world, actually had the ability to defend myself mentally?

The essence of mental techniques related to consciousness control is to find flaws in the target's mind, and then take advantage of them to gain control.

And the spiritual world in which I am the world has the most perfect logical protection. I was just not proficient in this secret technique just now, but now my life is in crisis, and my defense mechanism is automatically triggered.

In an instant, those chains restrained the invading consciousness. Simon Burnie in the distance was backfired by the magic. Her face instantly turned pale, and she quickly withdrew her mental power.

Ji Xun's body broke free from the restraints. Without any hesitation, he touched the eye of the pyramid tip and activated the entire [Tower of Gods]!

For a moment, the world seemed to pause.

Waves of terrifying magic power gathered on the pyramid, and then shot out dazzling white light toward the starry sky on the ceiling.

It felt like the radio was powered on and suddenly received signals from the outside world.

radio?

Why did I come up with this unfamiliar word?

I don't know how long it took, but Ji Xun looked at the white light in front of him and had a strange feeling, like the early morning sunlight shining through the window and shining on his face while he was dreaming.

He saw a dreamlike scene.

In this half-dream and half-awake state, it seems as if the soul in some high-level world has projected a massive amount of knowledge.

Ji Xun suddenly opened his eyes!

He ignored the Vatican personnel who were rushing toward the pyramid, but took out the parchment that he had been collecting for twenty years and might be related to his life experience.

It looks like a book page or a photo.

On the parchment, which had no information at all before, a pattern slowly emerged.

It was the face of a clown with a wide grin.

Ji Xun looked at the photo, the seal of his memory loosened, as if he recognized it, and murmured to himself: "[Grey Mist Remains]. It turns out that this is the creation artifact that JOKER left to future generations long ago. method."

Only then did he realize that the parchment was not something else, but a page from the creation artifact [Book of Dimensionality Reduction] of the original Titan True God Baal.

When JOKER sealed the seven godheads of the Titan God, he also thought that in the future, the true **** would revive, and the future generations of the Card Master civilization would inevitably be limited by this creation artifact.

Even if it is broken.

Therefore, at the last moment when He was being surrounded and suppressed by the Titans, he left his own image on the page when he tore out the Book of Dimensionality Reduction.

This is also the key to breaking the situation in His message to future generations.

This world of the Seven Gods is the world created by the [Book of Dimensionality Reduction].

These awakened ones are all outsiders who have been reduced in dimension.

If you want to escape, you must have an understanding higher than the rules of the world of the artifact itself; but in the limited life of this world, it is simply impossible.

Even if it is a mid-level **** or a high-level god. The world laws of this [Creation Artifact·Book of Dimensionality Reduction] are as high as the card master plane.

The height of the promoted gods in the Card Master plane can never be higher than the plane itself, nor can it be higher than the world in this book.

Even if it is damaged, the chance is still very slim.

The other way is to use the artifact fragment in Ji Xun's hand.

"I am Ji Xun. Senior Nan Shenyu and Faluo from the card master plane"

Ji Xun glimpsed the truth of this world in an instant.

He understood everything.

But in his mind, the world of the Seven Gods where he had lived for twenty years was extremely real.

No matter from the perspective of laws and rules, this is a complete world.

A real world in a book.

"Controlling a world? Is this the power of the true God?"

Ji Xunruo has some realization.

He seemed to see in his heart the ultimate goal of the operation of the "power of rules".

If we could understand all the rules required for the operation of the universe, wouldn't we be able to create such a real world?

No wonder [Gray Mist Relic] is just a fragment, but there is such a magical gray mist space.

And at this moment, Ji Xun also understood how the countless magical "different-dimensional spaces" in the card master's plane appeared.

Those are countless fragments of the creation artifact, absorbed by the will of the plane, and the remaining divine intervention of the card king JOKER. This is the special small world space that leaves the inheritance opportunity for the card master civilization.

Just as he was thinking about it, Enlightenment also appeared.

"You have understood the 'world'. 'My heart is the universe' proficiency +352311, and the secret skill level has been increased by Lv.10."

The portrait in his hand shone brightly, cutting off the "cognitive barrier" that the will of the world had given to the people of this world.

Ji Xun knew that this creation artifact could no longer trap him.

He also understood what the "world" that the witch Emperor Lanlingst told him was.

This is a power that only superior gods can glimpse, the ultimate mystery of "God's Rules".
