The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 477: Natural Realm and Ether Valley

……

Inside the huge pit.

The pillar of fire reached into the sky.

The bell tower that was originally towering into the sky looked quite short and small in front of this pillar of fire.

There was a strong wind in the sky.

But oddly enough.

The fire was extremely solid and impartial, burning fiercely both in the sky and on the ground. The fire was confined to the inner range of the fire column.

The area around the pillar of fire was extremely hot, enough to melt everything.

But in places further away, the impact is much less severe.

"It's the butterfly trying to control the fire..."

"He can actually guide this level of ether explosion..."

Matthew walked among the flames with inner peace.

Blessed by Gordon's fire.

This horrific flame couldn't hurt Matthew at all.

He was constantly sensing the fluctuations inside the giant metal cocoon, so he knew every move of the butterfly.

Although the two were separated by a giant cocoon.

But through the resonance of the divine phoenix egg and the giant metal cocoon, a unique understanding and rhythm were established.

They worked together to compress and raise the fire.

This is how the vision of a super torch rising into the sky in the City of Order was created!

Da da da!
The fire burned mercilessly.

The surrounding air was almost sucked out, but soon a large amount of air would fill it up.

The resulting fierce gale made the buildings in the city roar. The people who had just experienced a terrible natural disaster hid in the shelter and did not dare to come out. They could only listen to the howling of the wind in silence.

The Chaos Aether rides on the strong wind.

They rushed to the torch one after another. Some of them were absorbed by the giant metal cocoon and the Phoenix egg, while more of them became nutrients for the burning of this super torch.

Gradually.

Thick layers of ash accumulated at the base of the torch.

The ashes flickered with tiny sparks of fire, had the power of ultra-high temperature burning, and contained a mysterious and infinite aura.

Matthew sensed this.

He quickly descended to the base of the torch and picked up a handful of ashes.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the ashes touched Matthew, they melted into his fingers at the fastest speed.

Followed by.

Matthew clearly felt that the Void Mark in his body had become more stable!

The power of the void that had previously been unable to restrain itself and wanted to spread everywhere has also become much more docile!
"This is……"

"The power of ashes?"

Matthew understood instantly.

The violent burning of massive amounts of chaotic ether produced a large amount of spiritual ashes.

These ashes are enough to propel a person into the corresponding realm.

"The power of ash is the power that the void master Yukrus found in the material world, and it is the power that is closest to the power of the void in nature..."

Matthew suddenly thought:

"But this does not mean that the power of ash is exclusive to the void."

"In fact."

"The Ash Realm is the realm of the material world, and the Ash Power is also the power of the material world. Similar does not mean the same!"

"The ash element I just absorbed seems to be able to curb the void bloodline!"

Think about this.

Matthew couldn't help but keep trying.

Since Yukrus had already taken over, Matthew didn't dare to rashly enter the realm of the Lord of the Void. It would be troublesome if he had a deeper connection with him.

He was simply absorbing the ash elements from the flames.

Whoohoo!
His fingertips gently swept across the ashes at the base of the torch, drawing large amounts of ashes into his body like a vacuum cleaner.

Gradually.

A huge sense of satisfaction came over me.

Thick and full ash elements continuously filled the void.

The feeling of emptiness previously caused by over-stimulation of the void bloodline had long since disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and security!
"It seems that in addition to using the Parasitic Skull to devour living creatures, absorbing the power of ash is also a way to feed or even restrain the Void Bloodline!"

Matthew was secretly amazed.

Although he did not deliberately explore the Ash Realm.

But in the process of absorbing the ash elements, this realm unknowingly opened its doors to Matthew.

Due to the tyranny of Yukrus.

Matthew just walked in and took a moment, then walked out again.

Rao is so.

He also gained two abilities from the Realm of Ashes!

……

“Make Fire: No matter where you are or what the circumstances are, as long as it’s not absolute nothingness, you can create real, authentic flames with just a snap of your fingers!

Summon Ash Minions: You can summon up to 12 Ash creatures to serve you.

Note: Ash Minions have low combat effectiveness, so they can be disintegrated directly to replenish their own Ash Elements.

……

The ability to make fire is not as useless as it seems.

This means that Matthew can create fire with his bare hands without any ether.

This might come in handy at some point.

As for summoning ash minions.

Ok.

At least Matthew won't have to hunt and kill living things anymore.

"The relationship between Ashes and the Void seems to be different from what I imagined."

"When I become a legend, I will explore this field carefully. Maybe I will find something new..."

Think so.

Suddenly, an extremely strong call came from the bottom of Matthew's heart.

A genuine smile appeared on his face.

That is the intense joy that comes from the spiritual seed about to sublimate!

next second.

He looked up.

But the shell of the divine phoenix egg had already melted completely!
not far away.

A part of the outer shell of the giant metal cocoon also melted, and the melted part turned into thick molten iron, which was poured directly onto the phantom feathers inside the divine phoenix egg.

In a blink of an eye.

A clear cry was heard.

The huge flames lit up the entire sky.

Under the red light.

A tiny shadow suddenly spread its wings and took off from where the molten iron was pouring!

Whoohoo!
The flying shadow flew straight up along the torch, circled the sky three times, and then slowly descended and returned to the bottom of the torch.

Matthew took a closer look.

It was actually a bird about the same size as a black peacock, with a bald head and an ugly appearance like a chicken, except for the feathers on its tail which were as silver and shiny as snow!

Is this the divine phoenix?

Matthew reached out his hand curiously and touched the rough beak of the little red bird.

That moment.

An electric shock-like feeling spread throughout Matthew's body.

at the same time.

A straightforward thought kept ringing in his mind:

"nerve."

"You are me and I am you, why are we so distant?"

Matthew smiled in relief.

Talk to your own clone.

This is the first time I have felt this way.

He could feel that every move of the little red bird was controlled by his thoughts.

And if you don't deliberately control it.

Then the little red bird will act according to the experience inherent in its blood with the support of the seed of spirit.

Matthew studied it for a moment.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

The independence of a clone is a plot that only exists in novels.

This little red bird is like an extra hand to him, and he doesn't need to worry about the hand having thoughts of its own.

Ever since.

While Matthew was stroking the little red bird's feathers, he checked the data column.

……

“Hint: Your spirit seed has successfully sublimated into a new clone “Strange Phoenix”!
Strange Phoenix (Juvenile/Mythical Template): A powerful life born from the dead Phoenix egg and the fusion of a mechanical alien in the flames.

The life expectancy of the exotic phoenix can reach 3000 years.

Young phoenixes have the following traits or abilities:

1. Fire-proof (The Phoenix is ​​not afraid of fire and can replenish its strength and life in fire)

2. Soul of Nature (As the Phoenix grows, it will automatically acquire the identity of the highest-ranking soul of nature in the local environment)
3. Breaking Evil (The Phoenix and its master can cause 300% damage to the life in the negative energy field, the undead field, and the frost field)
4. Ether Nemesis (The Phoenix was born in the fire storm of chaotic ether, so it is immune to all negative effects brought by chaotic ether and can use chaotic ether as food to strengthen itself)
5. Thunder (The Phoenix can be considered a projectile. You can roll the Phoenix into a ball and throw it at the enemy. When it hits the enemy, the Phoenix will automatically explode, triggering thunder and fire rings, and it will take the opportunity to leave the target's surroundings.)
6. Master of Constructs (The tail of the strange phoenix is ​​stained with the breath of powerful construct life, so for most constructs, the strange phoenix can easily become their master and gain control over them)

……

“That’s quite impressive…”

Matthew knew that this little red bird of his was definitely not a genuine divine phoenix.

But I didn't expect that the attributes of childhood are so overbearing.

Just look at the panel properties.

Most true dragons cannot reach the level of strange phoenixes when they are born.

What's more, there are a series of traits and abilities below.

"But the first four are pretty decent, what's with the "Thunderbolt"? "

Matthew looked at the chubby little red bird with some confusion.

"Would someone really throw their own clone out like a grenade?"

He thought it was inappropriate.

As for the last one, "Lord of Construct", he is even more powerful.

Although constructs are not a particularly mainstream race in Eindor, there are traces of their active presence in many places.

If the strange phoenix could directly command these constructs.

Then he will become the nightmare of many construct mages!
"The powerful constructed life form that has the aura of the strange phoenix on it is the God of Truth controlled by the butterfly, right?"

Matthew thought so.

Just at this time.

There was also a strong fluctuation in the giant metal cocoon -

The outer shell of the giant cocoon had already loosened and melted during the birth of the strange phoenix.

When the strange phoenix took off, it kicked up a large amount of molten iron.

Part of the shell was assimilated by the molten iron and showed signs of concavity and softening.

next moment.

Sharp outlines bulge out from the inside out where the cocoon softens.

Followed by.

There was a dense sound of tearing.

The flames burned even more fiercely.

A large amount of molten iron rolled down, and almost all of the outer shell of the cocoon was melted. Soon, a pair of giant wings sparkling with bright starlight appeared in front of Matthew!
The thing that crawled out of the giant cocoon first moved its body and joints stiffly.

But it was just a few times.

A large amount of ether gushed out from the inside of the object, and countless heart-pounding blue-black floating dots suddenly appeared on its metal surface.

That is the precursor to ether distortion!
Matthew suddenly felt a sense of alarm.

Available in the next second.

All the floating points sank quickly.

The creature slowly unfolded its body in the fading pillar of fire.

It was a huge mechanical butterfly with beautiful patterns!

Under Matthew's silent gaze.

The mechanical butterfly clumsily extended its limbs and climbed up the clock tower bit by bit.

Soon.

The giant butterfly climbed to the top of the bell tower.

Matthew looked up.

The nun was found standing on the edge of the top floor of the bell tower.

She got very close to the butterfly.

next second.

She stretched out her hand, wanting to touch the butterfly's limbs, but at that moment, a gust of wind blew -

The butterfly then spread its wings.

Whoohoo!
A strong wind rose.

Butterflies take to the sky on the wind.

He flapped his wings several times high in the sky, and the patterns on his giant wings lit up with starlight again.

Followed by.

The butterfly disappeared silently in the sky above the City of Order!

Wow!
The pillar of fire that shot up into the sky suddenly fell thousands of feet.

Matthew silently controlled the last flame.

Then he looked at the data column.

……

"Hint: You have witnessed the birth process of the super mechanical life "God of Truth" (LV24/Myth Template)!

The God of Truth has left Canning and is flying deep into the astral world..."

……

"Butterfly……"

"Is this to prevent myself from losing control?"

Matthew speculated in his mind.

Accompanied by the departure of the God of Truth who absorbed excess ether.

The material layer consolidated by the three great divine wizards gradually stabilized.

Matthew could feel it.

The ether level around me is dropping at a rapid rate!

"really."

"Once the material layer is stabilized, the ether backflow phenomenon will be greatly alleviated..."

Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

next second.

A large amount of information flashed across the screen in front of him. Streams of heat also flowed into his body from an unknown source!
……

“Hint: You have successfully ended the chaotic storm in Canning City, and your practice of the legendary way has achieved “leapfrog” progress!

You have gained a lot of practice points!
Because of your actions of exiling the evil gods in the City of Order, hatching the divine bird, and helping the God of Truth, you have been awarded the new title "Savior"!
Savior: All areas of your Celebrity Domain will be further enhanced.

Your ability "Shout Back" applies three of the following effects to enemies at random:
Confinement, shock, fear, dizziness, admiration, obsession, mental degradation, incontinence...

Those who fail the immunity will suffer negative effects for at least 3 days! "

……

The extreme rise in reputation was something that Matthew had expected.

After all, this time Canning City was truly saved and the innocent lives of Aindo were saved.

But what made him happier was that.

Still progress on the road to legend!
After ending the chaotic storm in the City of Order, Matthew not only gained a large number of practice points and recognition of super high natural will, but also entered the "Nature" field as he wished!
natural.

He is one of the two highest-ranking people in Matthew's territory.

Now, relying on his achievements as a savior, he has not only broken through the threshold of the field in one fell swoop, but has also become the controller of the natural field!
Yes.

He skipped the entry and advanced exploration stages and became the master of the main domain.

This way.

Matthew successfully obtained five abilities from the natural realm and a natural authority that was in the making!
The five capabilities are as follows.

……

"Oasis: In just a moment, you can create an oasis in the desert, a forest on a barren plain, or an island in the vast ocean...

all in all.

You gain the powerful ability to create alternative environments or terrains within extreme climates, environments, or terrains.

This ability is a consumable ability and can be used a total of 10 times.

"True Transfiguration: Through a specific ritual, you can permanently transform into three specific objects.

After that.

You can use Transfiguration to transform directly into these objects and possess all of their panel data and specific abilities.

"God-given Halo: You can select up to 1000 followers around you so that they can enjoy your God-given Halo.

If the Follower's level is below Legend, then the God-given Aura will increase their level by +4 (attributes such as combat power and life will receive a significant level correction);

If the follower's level is above Legendary, then the God-given Aura will increase their level by +1 (plus an additional Legendary resistance)."

"A fateful encounter: You have been summoned by the Rootless River. One day in the future, you will definitely enter the Rootless River and gain an opportunity.

This is a destined encounter that cannot be erased or changed by anyone.

You don't need to chase deliberately.

The rootless river will find you at the right time."

"Regeneration of Broken Limbs: No matter how badly you are injured or how severely your body is damaged, your body will be healed in a day and a night at most.

Note: If a broken limb regenerates too many times, a "natural accident" may occur. It is possible that two or even three corresponding organs will grow at the broken part. Just cut off the extra ones.

……

After reading this.

Matthew can only say that it is worthy of being in the natural realm.

Each ability is incredibly powerful!

Let’s put aside the “fateful encounter” that is based on chance.

"Regeneration of severed limbs" means that as long as Matthew is alive, he is immortal and can grow extra spare organs. This is much more useful than the necromancer who practices cloning techniques!
"God-given Halo" is a super enhancement in large-scale combat.

A full 1000 non-legendary units directly upgraded by one level?
This can no longer be described as a supermodel.

It's simply cheating!
"True Transfiguration" is also one of the abilities that Matthew has always wanted. With it, Matthew can change into many different forms, break through the paradox of Transfiguration, and complete many incredible operations.

As for "Oasis".

This is more like a ritual site of empowerment.

Matthew was able to possess a stronger ability to change the natural environment than the Archdruid.

The only regret is that it is the same as the Great Prophecy.

They are all consumables that become less and less each time you use them.

"The authority of nature is still in the making. I don't know when it will take shape..."

Matthew thought with excitement.

After the fall of the ancient gods of nature, this field has been vacant for a long time. Due to the limitations of their abilities and platforms, there are very few druids who occupy high positions in the field of nature.

Now that Matthew has broken in, he seems to be on the path to becoming the master of the natural realm.

All of a sudden.

His heart was restless, and he had an urge to ascend to the legendary realm of nature!
But soon.

He suppressed this impulse.

Matthew's mind is always clear——

The field is just your tool.

Even something as powerful as nature is not immune to corruption.

Even an artifact like Paradise Lost is just a more powerful tool in Matthew's eyes.

“Don’t get caught up in it.”

"To rise above everything and master all realms..."

“This is my legendary path!”

Matthew composed himself.

The flames were completely extinguished.

After he swept away all the ash elements below, he wanted to look for the divine wizards outside the city, but the three of them had already quietly left.

“The disaster is over, but the chaos in the city may not subside quickly.”

Looking at the chaos in the city.

Matthew couldn't help but sigh softly.

The whereabouts of the God of Truth is also a very important matter at this moment.

Consider the close relationship between Butterfly and the nun.

Matthew reached the top of the bell tower again.

But before Matthew could speak.

The nun had already expressed similar thoughts to him:

"Now that the disaster is over, the elemental law enforcers can barely maintain order in the city."

"But if Butterfly is away for a long time, both the Ingram family and the Truth Cult will covet the position of city lord. At that time, I am afraid that some harassment will break out, which will undoubtedly be an unprovoked disaster for ordinary people in the city."

"I can disguise myself as a butterfly and temporarily stabilize the situation, but I can't hold out for long."

"Mr. Matthew, can you get him back for me?"

"I'm worried about him..."

Matthew was also concerned about the butterfly's whereabouts, so he nodded:
"I can go look for him, but I can't tell where he is."

"I can only roughly determine that he went to the astral world."

"Does the City of Order or Butterfly himself have power in the Astral Plane?"

The nun shook her head:

"The City of Order's influence on the outer planes is limited to the few secondary planes it controls."

"I've never heard Butterfly mention any territory in the Star Realm..."

Matthew understood.

It seems so.

The butterfly leaped to the star realm, simply wanting to divert the disaster away.

After all, he has too much chaos ether integrated into his body.

It is possible to transform into a giant monster like a demon at any time, thus causing terrible impact on the material world.

"I can't help you find the butterfly."

"But there is another gentleman here who may have a way to find the God of Truth."

"And he has wanted to see you for a long time..."

The nun bowed slightly.

With permission from Matthew.

She brought another guest from downstairs.

The man was short and thin, with many metal accessories hanging on his clothes. They made jingling sounds when he walked, giving people a very funny feeling.

His hair was orange-red, and as he walked straight toward Matthew, he looked like a torch stuck in the ground and moving slowly.

no doubt.

This is a dwarf artificer.

"Someone from Cybertron?"

Matthew wasn't too surprised.

Butterfly’s true identity is Cybertron’s legendary mechanic. During the rescue process, Matthew also saw a spaceship from Cybertron.

It is reasonable for the other party to appear here.

at the same time.

Matthew noticed that the dwarf was accompanied by a small construct similar to a sweeping robot.

Different from other constructs.

There is actually a huge crystal plate installed on the front of this small construct.

Various emoticons flew across the crystal board from time to time.

Matthew felt as if he was in another world.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Matthew."

As soon as the dwarf saw Matthew, he excitedly grasped his right hand and refused to let go.

"I'm Martin, the head of Cybertron's foreign affairs department!"

"Look, we have the same last name, we can definitely become good friends!"

Matthew looked at the other party in surprise:

"Are you a Sioux?"

Martin explained:
"of course not."

"I just pretended to be a Sioux and used the similar pronunciation of our names to make a very clever joke."

"Don't you think it's funny?"

The words were not finished.

The dwarf himself laughed out loud with great amusement.

Matthew tried to smile.

The dwarf was even more proud when he saw this.

He turned to the sweeping robot and said:

"Look, a little mine!"

"I told you this joke would make people laugh!"

A mechanical female voice came from Xiao Dilei's body:

"To be fair."

"Martin, the humor level of your joke is about the same as my current humor index reduced by 50 percent."

Martin immediately looked dissatisfied.

Matthew couldn't help but ask:
"What's your current humor index?"

Little Landmine replied:
"0."

A few emoticons that sounded helpless floated across the crystal plate above.

Matthew couldn't help laughing.

Martin was obviously unhappy.

But he seemed to have a very cheerful personality. He patted the crystal plate of the little mine and the matter was over.

“Today is a really good day for me.”

"why?"

"Because I finally got to see you, Mr. Matthew, the savior of this generation!"

"I have heard of your name and deeds from many people—"

"Ms. Margaret, Ms. Wilkins, and Mr. Butterfly..."

"I paid special attention to your performance in the battle for ascension to the gods. In the end, you actually gave up the chance to become a god and gave up Paradise Lost before the arrival of the singularity cannon. This is simply a miracle among mortals..."

The dwarf held Matthew's hand and talked incessantly.

Matthew managed to keep up a polite smile at first.

Later on, I gradually felt a little embarrassed.

Why did he feel that the head of Cyberlon's foreign affairs department looked more like his fanatical... fan?
Considering that these artificers do nothing but tinkering in the laboratory.

He also often observes all the news happening on the continent of Aindor.

It doesn't seem unacceptable that he has fans in Cybertron.

present.

Matthew tried to change the subject:

"The word savior is too much. I just happened to do a small thing..."

Unexpectedly, the dwarf Martin held Matthew's hand tightly and said:

"No!"

"This is not a trivial matter, this is a great event worthy of praise and tears!"

"Our world is very dangerous and faces the danger of destruction at any moment. As part of the self-regulation of the universe's will, every era will usher in a specific savior."

"no doubt."

"You are the savior of this generation!"

"But it's a pity..."

"Your status as the savior may not last too long. After three months, or at most half a year, you may be forced to lose that halo."

Speaking of it.

The dwarf sighed sadly and said:

"You must be careful then, and don't do anything that would show off your ability, otherwise you may encounter an accident!"

This is actually quite harsh to hear.

It was like cursing Matthew to his face.

If someone else said it, Matthew would definitely not look at him in a good mood, but when it came from the mouth of the dwarf Martin, looking at his serious and sincere expression.

Matthew really couldn't get angry.

So he could only ask the question:

"why?"

"Three months or half a year, is there any mystery in this?"

The dwarf said seriously:
"Of course."

"Originally, this world was about to usher in an era that belonged to mages, and the identity of the savior was bound to the mage community."

"But after the Canning City incident, the nature of the situation changed."

"According to Cyberlon's deduction and observation, after you exile the giant evil, the ether level of the entire Iendor will drop rapidly..."

Matthew wondered:
"Isn't that a good thing?"

The dwarf blinked:

“The problem is that the fall can be more than you think.”

"According to the ebb and flow principle of the etheric tide, the trough often follows the peak."

"The higher the etheric peak created by the chaotic ether in Canning is, the lower the etheric trough environment faced by Aindo will be in the next few years..."

"I mean."

"In half a year at most, the entire Iendor will enter a period of ether depression."

"The group of mages will likely lose the favor of the plane's will to a large extent."

"You are no exception."

"The worse news is that your legendary journey has not yet been completed. If you cannot reach the legendary level during this period, then once you face a low ether environment, your legendary journey will become even more difficult..."
