Chapter 877 Heart of Terra (22, ask for a monthly pass!)
"go to sleep."
Going forward, he patted the head of the little girl's soul. Ian said softly, "Have a good rest... If you don't want to wake up, just sleep forever in this virtual Hades."
"This is one of the few things I can do for you."
【It is... our dead king】
Shadows, the white souls surrounding Ian bowed to Ian: [Thank you for finding a brand new home for us]
Then, under the guidance of the two leading souls, they submerged into the source quality computing chip.
Start the long-lost 'rest'.
"This is the way of thinking of Fei Yandi Constructing Knights, using man-made utensils to store human souls instead of physical bodies."
Ian watched the souls that made up the Mark of the Dead submerge into the calculation center, with a faint smile on his face: "We talked about it before, the artificial Hades. Resident shelter facilities that are matched with artificial souls."
"At that time, we also said that we would build huge artificial underworlds around the energy furnace to ensure the safety of the underworld... But that was only a temporary shelter, and the artificial underworld there was not comprehensive, and the computing center in my hand is theoretically The most complete one."
"Adelbert, souls can sleep forever here."
With his back to the red center of Hades, Ian stretched out his arms to the white-haired dead king, and said calmly, "What do you want to do?"
"finally…"
Facing Ian's explanation, apart from the initial shock, Adalbert's face was full of relief: "I can finally let go..."
"It's not that I don't want to carry the burden, I just know that all this is not the end they should have."
Walking forward slowly, the young researcher unconsciously burst into tears: "Finally, I can let them rest in peace..."
Without any hesitation, Adbert reached out without hesitation and peeled off the mark of the dead king on his forehead!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It was as if the roots of the tree had been torn off, as if the vines had been plucked, and the chains entangled in the dead king and the souls were torn apart in an extremely intense pain that could be called life.
But the thin researcher didn't slow down at all. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to remove the mark that gave him divine power, allowing him to ascend to the third energy level in one step.
click.
He succeeded.
Kneeling half-kneeling on the ground, the trembling dead king suddenly paused, and then slowly lowered his hands.
The dead king's mark exuding pale radiance was stripped off and placed in the palm of his hand.
The dead souls bound in it began to spread and turned into many white souls surrounding Adalbert.
【Dead King...】
【Why release us...】
【Is there another fight? We will act on your will...]
The dead souls surrounded the frail young man, and the young man stood up unsteadily. He smiled and explained the current situation to the dead souls.
【but】
Hearing that Adalbert wanted to set them free, apart from joy, the dead souls also had a trace of worry: 【Without our help, my lord, wouldn’t you be in danger? 】
【There are too many horrors in this world, can you deal with it alone? 】
Different from Ian, after detaching the dead king, Adalbert's combat effectiveness in a short period of time may be inferior to that of ordinary people.
His soul was too deeply entangled with the mark of the dead king, and even his spirit was a little unstable after breaking away.
The ghosts under Ian's command don't mind leaving Ian, because they know that they may be Ian's drag
And Adalbert was the other way around—he was taken care of by the ghosts under his command.
The contrast is very strong.
"Don't worry."
But Yadbert just shook his head slightly, and he softly said to the dead souls who cared about him: "As long as my mind is still there, I will eventually get the power I deserve, not based on your pain and oppression." power above."
"The dead king is the source of despicable power, holding it will make me restless."
【If this is your wish, my lord...】
【Then we will obey】
Hearing Adalbert's words, his people went to the source computing chip suspiciously.
Ian watched this scene.
After all the souls in the mark of the dead king of Adalbert also entered the red computing center, Ian said slowly: "You are more decisive than I thought."
"Of course." Adbert smiled and looked at Ian: "I have also learned a lot from you... I will not hesitate for this temporary power, even if the price is to return to this weak mortal. body."
"Really?"
But Ian raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "Are you really weak, Yadbert?"
"If you are really weak, you are not even as good as the first-level sublimation after leaving the dead king... Then why are you still standing here instead of being expelled by your own virtual world?"
The young researcher was slightly taken aback, and Ian continued: "Actually, Adalbert, you are a real genius in meditation. Your soul is already very powerful..."
"It's just because the power of the dead king conceals your own power, so you didn't notice it."
"It's just right, now, I will lead you into the real 'Abstract Path'."
After speaking, Ian opened his hands.
Then, pitch blackness began to spread in the void, engulfing his body.
Darkness. Pure darkness.
The abyss-like darkness took away the light of the Void. This is a vision caused by the powerful souls beginning to absorb the surrounding psychic manifestations, just like the powerful Void Mechanics always 'opens a dark crack' to appear , that pitch-black crack is the abyss of the void, and the majestic natural spiritual energy rushes towards them, finally casting their bodies.
And now, too.
In the pitch blackness, a silver-cyan star suddenly lit up, a geometric body composed entirely of light, crystal and silver metal, they intertwined and spiraled to form a huge Metatronic cube.
A silver-cyan radiation radiates outward from the bulge of this geometric body, making it look as bright as a star, completely penetrating the pitch-black abyss.
This…
is the soul of Ian.
Shaped by the 'meditation method', a nearly physical soul!
Use your own will to polish your soul bit by bit and change its structure.
The original light sphere is carved out of corners and corners, and countless calculation units are built inside it for calculation.
The difficulty of this is no less than carving an entire chip integrated circuit on a stone.
Ian succeeded—so he gained power over everyone else.
Around the soul of the stars, the cyan brilliance seems to penetrate time and cause and effect, penetrate deeply through the entire virtual world, and even penetrate more distant things. This is the power of the "foreseeing horizon".
And in the center of the Metatronic Cube, a little Ian in the form of a fairy seems to be sleeping peacefully...
"You are not weak."
He slowly opened his eyes and looked at Adalbert.
Under the gaze of this gaze, the researcher with white hair and red pupils disappeared where Adalbert was originally, and a regular octahedron with pure white body and scarlet core appeared.
Blood and fire burned in the pure white soul, releasing a faint brilliance.
This is Ian's soul, and the "truth" of Adalbert's soul in the virtual world.
"look."
Ian's voice became ethereal and trembling: "You think you have lost all your power, but you don't know that the Lord of the Dead has subtly transformed you, and the meditation you have practiced recently has raised your soul to almost The third energy level."
"Compared to mine, your soul just lacks the time to refine it. In another year or two, Adalbert, with your foundation and talent, you can regenerate your soul without any 'potion'. Practice is comparable to the power of the 'dead king'."
"At that time, your power will no longer be gathered by a group of dead souls, but will be forged by your own soul!"
"this…"
And Adalbert spun his soul body, observing in astonishment.
He didn't expect his soul to be so powerful.
But he keenly discovered a very important point: "Isn't our current appearance just like the Void Mechanic?"
After noticing the goblin body at the core of Ian's soul, he couldn't help muttering: "Oh, you still have a goblin..."
"Yes."
Ian smiled and said: "You also know that the system of pre-epoch civilization is biased towards spiritual practice, and their highest point is the third energy level mind light body - but they have created a large number of fourth energy level 'virtual realm machines' God', it's clearly not just about creating tools."
"I think that the Void Machine God is the ladder of advancement they have created using technological means. If my guess is correct, the next step should be the spiritual cultivation of the third energy level. Created, and merged with the virtual machine **** that is completely compatible with your own soul, and used technological means to promote yourself to the 'fourth energy level'."
"This should be the 'spiritual path' that they wanted to go, but they didn't finish it...It is precisely because this orthodox spiritual path disappeared due to the collapse of Terra civilization, that the people of Terra will embark on the current path of demonic cultivation. The way of medicine sublimation."
"In contrast, in the potion path, the highest practice of the mind is the mind light body. After the mind light body, it is to use life and spiritual energy to mix the source quality to shape the etheric body. The mind light body is to control the etheric body. The core—it does get stronger, but it doesn't change in essence."
"Ether is a power far beyond psionic energy and source quality. Controlled by the mind light body, it will naturally wear and tear. This is one of the reasons why the life is shortened in battle."
"But my arcane path has made up for this missing link - the soul has to learn the Void Mech, use meditation to strengthen the heart light, and finally transform, transforming into something like a 'fairy' and a 'Void Mech' Nascent Soul... Spirit God."
"The body needs to learn from the major sublimation monsters, reshape with the help of spirits and gods, completely reborn, and shape the real body."
"As the myth of the heavenly ladder of the "Father" says, the soul and the body are one, and the "fruit of wisdom" and the "fruit of life" are one."
"When the spirit and the real body are united, you can truly exert the power of 'near God'."
"Completely promote your own life essence from the inside out, and you can become a truly complete 'fourth level', instead of the 'fourth energy level' that will lose your life as long as you fight with all your strength!"
This is the path that Ian is walking now—his soul has turned into a goblin, and his body will also look for a future path in Dragon Island.
When one day, his two bodies broke through the current signs, and then merged into one, returning to completeness, that is when he truly broke through the fourth level of the arcane method!
"Wait!" Although Adalbert was shocked by Ian's ambition and future path, he keenly discovered the problem of the Alpha path.
He said in a deep voice: "Although the thought is very good, the meditation method requires a long time and countless repetitions of work. The requirements of the arcane path are too high for talent and personal accomplishment, and it is far less popular than the potion system-this It is also the reason for the loss of the orthodox spiritual practice of pre-epoch civilization!"
"The road to potion, as long as there are enough potions and talent is good enough, you may be able to reach the peak of the fourth energy level or even the fifth energy level at the age of thirty or forty."
"However, in the arcane path, even if you have superior talent, if you can't sink your mind and insist on meditating, it's normal to still be at the first or second level after 20 or 30 years of cultivation!"
"You said that it only takes one or two years for me to return to the third energy level? This is impossible. According to my estimation, it will take at least five or six years for me to recover!"
"So, I need assistance." Ian said calmly.
His soul led Adelbert's soul towards the source computing chip: "Because of this, I want to create an extremely powerful AI - not only to assist in the management of the territory, but also to assist everyone in their cultivation !"
"And now, I'm going to start building the foundation of this AI."
"Create 'Heart of Terra'!"
"Heart of Terra?"
Following Ian into the source computing chip, Adbert couldn't help asking: "What is that?"
Ian replied calmly: "The name of the 'artificial intelligence' I will create."
"It is also the real "core" and "heart" of the future Terra society in my vision."
