Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　Each piece of information contains the secrets of the underlying rules of the Tree Sea system. They intertwine and collide in his mind space, blossoming with dazzling wisdom.

　With his eyes tightly closed, the necromancer let these thoughts churn and surge in his mind.

　His brain was working at full speed, filtering, analyzing, and integrating every piece of information.

　His mind is like an invisible giant net, capturing scattered information and weaving it into magnificent pictures of the underlying rules of the Tree Sea system.

　Even though Moros was already a powerful spellcaster at the pinnacle of demigod status, he still felt unprecedented pressure in the face of such a terrifying flood of information.

　At this moment, he fully understood a sentence in the "Seven Chapters of the Mysterious Lord's Secret Scripture": "I have often heard that it is not people who are diligent in seeking knowledge, but those who know that are diligent in seeking others. However, I know that this is wrong. Those who know do not seek others, but rather chase after others. They are as ruthless and heartless as hawks and hounds chasing rabbits."

　At this moment, the flood of information surging into his mind was a vivid depiction of the hawks and hounds chasing a rabbit.

　If he cannot digest all this information, then the First Herald in the current civilization of this world will be a cautionary tale that he must be wary of.

　The souls of a mere 300,000 people were enough to completely wash away the self of that corrupt apostle. Now, the sheer volume of information surging into Moros's mind far surpasses the amount of information that such a small number of souls could carry.

　Admittedly, with his current spellcasting abilities, he could easily cut off this information flood with a simple thought, thus preventing himself from being overwhelmed by the information flood that was full of the mysteries of the underlying rules of the Tree Sea system, and thus preserving his personality and self.

　However, he chose to refuse.

　Because he knows that risk and reward always go hand in hand.

　The necromancer had a clear understanding that as long as he could persevere, every second of the baptism would bring him immeasurable benefits.

　Putting everything else aside, in just a few dozen seconds, his [Plane] Domain Divinity had already condensed into a new unit.

　It should be noted that before this, he had devoted himself to research for decades to accumulate 10 units of divinity in the field of [planes].

　As is well known, as one's realm advances, the accumulation of divinity becomes increasingly difficult.

　Moreover, the opportunity to comprehend the secrets of the underlying rules of a world community is extremely rare.

　In order to make the most of this rare opportunity, Moros was naturally willing to take certain risks.

　Of course, this is mainly due to his ability to interrupt this flood of information at any time.

　This self-preservation ability allows him to be more composed when facing the unknown and danger.

　Having made up his mind, the necromancer no longer hesitated.

　He took a deep breath and immersed himself entirely in processing and comprehending this vast amount of information.

　As time went on, Moros gradually discovered that his understanding of the Tree Sea system was undergoing a qualitative leap.

　Those originally obscure and difficult concepts and rules became clear in his mind, as if invisible threads were connecting them to form a complete and systematic knowledge system.

　He could clearly sense that his soul had become more resilient and purer after being baptized by this torrent of information.

　And those about the underlying rules of the tree sea system

　The mystery of the law was also deeply etched into his memory like a brand.

　Finally, as the last bit of information entered his mind, Moros felt a sense of ease and satisfaction he had never experienced before.

　He knew that he had successfully absorbed and digested this information, transforming it into his own wisdom and insight.

　Thus, the necromancer has fulfilled the last necessary condition before ascending to godhood.

Chapter 918 Methods to Assist in Ascension to Godhood

　Having successfully fulfilled the last essential condition before ascending to godhood, Moros did not rush into the complex preparations for ascending to godhood.

　Ignite the divine fire, raise the divine throne, and ascend to the divine position.

　This is both the ultimate transformation from human to god, and the greatest test faced by a demigod at the pinnacle of power.

　When an extraordinary individual's cultivation reaches the limit of demigod, apart from the constant flow of time, almost no external factors can threaten their life.

　Even beings of the same level would find it difficult to kill completely.

　In the vast and boundless world of Ashan, while battles and killings among ordinary demigods are occasionally heard of, the fall of a demigod at the pinnacle of power is an extremely rare event, like something out of a fairy tale.

　Even over a hundred years, such an event might not happen even once.

　On the continent of Entagri, where war rages and conflicts are endless, even a demigod at the pinnacle of power is so difficult to defeat. How much more so in this world that is still closely connected to the Tree of Imaginary Numbers?

　However, even so, attempting to deify someone is an absolutely dangerous thing.

　The path to godhood is one of no return.

　Once that blazing divine fire is ignited, the fate of the extraordinary individual is reduced to only two possibilities—

　Alternatively, one can successfully cross to the other side and become a god who reigns above the clouds and controls the birth and death of all things.

　Alternatively, they would be devoured by the raging divine fire, reduced to nothingness, and utterly perished in the vast universe.

　What is particularly alarming is that the fall during the process of becoming a deity signifies a complete and irreversible demise.

　Unless the great being who created the world and all things personally intervenes to save them, no matter how ingenious the backup plan, it cannot save the life of the person who is trying to ascend to godhood.

　Having acquired all the magical knowledge of the Necropolis faction, Moros naturally had a very clear and profound understanding of all of this.

　Therefore, he would never be rash or impulsive, nor would he be eager for quick success.

　He would meticulously plan and patiently wait until everything was in place and the time was ripe before resolutely embarking on that irreversible path to godhood.

　What kind of preparation and accumulation is needed to achieve the supreme feat of ascending to godhood?

　This problem has long troubled countless demigods in the world of Ashan, leaving them searching in vain for a solution.

　Even for those esteemed demigods who have already been honored among the nine major factions, the answer to this question remains shrouded in mystery and difficult to grasp.

　The reason for this is not hard to understand.

　In the world of Ashan, no, in any high-magic world, knowledge that can help people transcend the ordinary and achieve godhood is considered an absolute forbidden and secret.

　After all, if this knowledge were to spread, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the foundation of the belief in deities.

　Imagine if mortals could also be deified, then why would they need to devoutly believe in those high and mighty gods?

　Faced with such blasphemous knowledge that is enough to shake the foundation of faith, the Church of God will naturally suppress it without mercy.

　Even if it were to ignite a holy war that would leave rivers of blood and fields strewn with corpses, those churches that believe in God would never waver or hesitate in the slightest.

　Therefore, even powerful entities like the nine major factions would not make this knowledge public, but would keep it hidden as their foundation and secret weapon.

　However, for Moros, who possessed all the magical knowledge of the Necropolis faction, the answer to this question seemed less out of reach.

　[Higher Magic] nourishes and elevates the soul, and is one of the necessary conditions for igniting divine fire and achieving divinity.

　The condensation of "faint divinity" is also an indispensable part of the path to godhood.

　Furthermore, a profound and comprehensive understanding of the underlying rules of one's world is also key to igniting the divine fire and advancing to the realm of divinity.

　However, besides these three irreplaceable necessary conditions, there are still many other factors that can affect the success or failure of the path to godhood.

　For example, personal willpower, wisdom, opportunities, and whether one can receive protection and guidance from certain mysterious forces—all these factors profoundly influence the path of those who aspire to godhood, becoming potential variables in whether they can ultimately reach the top.

　However, for Moros, the wisest and most appropriate choice under the current circumstances is undoubtedly to begin constructing the initial framework of the divine kingdom.

　The so-called divine kingdom, as the name suggests, is a supreme realm shaped and constructed by the will of the gods.

　Within the divine realm, the power of the gods will receive an unimaginable and terrifying boost.

　The magnitude of this increase is so great that...

　This is sufficient to ensure that even gods can protect themselves when facing gods of higher rank.

　It is obvious that a divine kingdom capable of granting such a huge boost to deities could not have been built by a demigod.

　Even if this demigod's strength is only one step away from the god level, even if this demigod has already condensed [weak divinity], even if this demigod possesses [alchemy] at the demigod level, it is still the same.

　However, what Moros needs to build now is not a complete and flawless divine kingdom, but merely a preliminary framework of a divine kingdom.

　This is certainly an extremely difficult challenge for necromancers, but it is no longer an unattainable fantasy.

　Building even the initial framework of a divine kingdom, even if it is just a prototype, is an extremely arduous task.

　But since it concerns the great cause of ascending to godhood, Moros must rise to the challenge no matter how difficult or dangerous the road ahead may be.

　Furthermore, as someone who possessed all the magical knowledge of the Necropolis faction, he knew perfectly well that there were ways to take shortcuts in this process.

　According to the secret methods detailed in the ancient magic tomes treasured within the Magic Guild, if the aim is merely to construct a preliminary framework of a divine kingdom that can provide necessary assistance on the path to godhood, without expecting it to bear the souls of countless supplicants, then the solution of reshaping the demiplane into the preliminary framework of the divine kingdom is entirely feasible.

　This strategy can not only significantly reduce the difficulty of building the initial framework of the divine kingdom, but also greatly reduce the time and resource costs required throughout the process.

　However, everything in the world has two sides.

　The initial framework of the divine kingdom constructed using this approach will be unable to establish the crucial [Reincarnation Pool].

　In other words, such a preliminary framework of a divine kingdom fundamentally loses the ability to automatically transform the souls of believers into supplicants.

　For any god who relies on the power of faith, this is a major and unacceptable flaw.

　After all, those who pray are the most stable and reliable source of faith in God.

　However, the path that Moros chose was not a path of faith in God that relied on the power of faith to forge divinity.

　Therefore, the shortcomings of this plan no longer seemed so intolerable to him.

　On the contrary, the advantages shown by this plan made him very interested.

　Even if it's just a prototype, the time and investment required to assist in the Investiture of the Gods is extremely large and terrifying.

　The ability to save resources and time was naturally very tempting for Moros.

Chapter 919 Research and Construction of the Altar

　Having chosen the grand blueprint of reshaping the demiplane into the initial framework of a divine kingdom, Moros naturally immersed himself in deep thought about the specific implementation details.

　Unlike the world of Ashan, in this world cluster jointly created by the two supreme beings, the Tree of Imaginary Numbers and the Sea of ​​Quanta, there are no traces of other demiplanes to be found except for the extremely special demiplane he is in.

　However, this is not an insurmountable problem.

　Admittedly, there are no natural demiplanes within the Tree Sea system, but countless world bubbles with properties very similar to demiplanes float in that vast and boundless quantum sea.

　Indeed, these world bubbles will inevitably vanish into the quantum sea and return to nothingness.

　But until that inevitable apocalypse arrives, these world bubbles are an excellent alternative to demiplanes.

　As for those worries that the bubble world will eventually disappear?

　The necromancer never took this to heart.

　The path he took to become a deity was the standard path of a source power god.

　Unlike those gods who ascend to godhood by relying on the power of faith provided by believers, the Source God relies on its own unparalleled power and has very little dependence on external things.

　Even in the divine kingdom, which is closely linked to the fate of the gods, the constraints and restrictions on the source god are far less severe than those on the god of faith.

　For those who believe in God, the destruction of God's kingdom almost means that they will inevitably suffer a severe blow, or even be forced into an endless slumber.

　However, for the God of Source Power, as long as the retreat is timely and they are not caught up in the aftermath of the destruction of the divine kingdom, the worst they will suffer is a minor injury that is not worth mentioning and will not pose any real threat to them.

　Obviously, compared to the immense benefit that the initial framework of the divine kingdom would bring to the path of godhood, such a trivial cost is negligible.

　Moreover, this is merely a deduction based on the worst-case scenario of the destruction of the divine kingdom.

　If Moros, after ascending to godhood, were to reconnect the World Bubble, the foundation of the divine kingdom, to the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, then the tragic end of the divine kingdom's destruction would have been impossible.

　Based on this insight and judgment, the necromancer made the decision without hesitation to replace the demiplane with the world bubble, and then implement the initial framework of the divine kingdom.

　Given Moros's personality, once he decided to replace the demiplane with the World Bubble, he would then begin to construct the initial framework of his divine kingdom.

　Once he has made up his mind, he will not delay in the slightest.

　After briefly explaining his intention to go into seclusion for in-depth research to Vilvie and the others, he resolutely devoted himself to exploring and studying how to perfectly replace the demiplane using the world bubble.

　Admittedly, there are many similarities between the World Bubble and the Demiplane, but there are ultimately fundamental differences between them.

　To successfully use the World Bubble as a perfect substitute for the demiplane in the complex and arduous process of building the initial framework of the divine kingdom, he would undoubtedly need to devote a great deal of time, energy, and immeasurable resources to conduct an extremely difficult but essential study.

　However, for necromancers, it was only a matter of time.

　The complete magical knowledge of the Necropolis faction stored in the [Level 5 Magic Guild] endowed him with the profound wisdom and endless experience of the entire Necropolis faction's predecessors.

　The extraordinary wisdom and keen insight brought about by the four leaps in life level, along with the faint divinity that had been formed decades ago, have brought his thinking ability to an unprecedented level, making him capable of handling this level of complex research.

　The thousands of alien colonies scattered throughout Venus's atmosphere, as well as the cemetery cities within the world bubbles he firmly controlled, provided him with a continuous supply of resources.

　With such favorable conditions as a backing, it was only natural that Moros was able to successfully complete this research.

　In just twenty “brief” years, he successfully developed a detailed implementation plan to perfectly replace the world bubble with a demiplane.

　In short, the core of the plan is to construct an altar inside the world bubble, and with the power of the altar and a massive magical ritual, the world bubble can be gradually transformed into a demiplane.

　Although this method cannot completely prevent the demiplanes transformed from the world bubble from eventually perishing, and the entire transformation process takes a full century, apart from these two unavoidable problems, the demiplanes transformed through this method can fully meet the stringent requirements for constructing the initial framework of a divine kingdom.
