Celestial Mage

Chapter 516 The River of Styx Running Through the Eight Realms (13)

The canopy of the Great Eternal Tree is nearly one lami high and hundreds of semimeters wide.

Standing in it, the eyes are full of greenery, as if you have come to a dense jungle.

Not long after arriving, I saw a silver-green light flashing on a big tree trunk five to six meters thick in front of me. A few seconds later, a young woman appeared out of thin air.

Green shawl-length hair mixed with silver streamers, lively and delicate with a touch of playful facial features, wearing a green leaf headband made of branches on her head, and a light pink-green long dress on her body, the style is elegant and ancient.

Looking down, he didn't wear shoes, and stood on a wide and flat tree trunk with bare snow feet.

Rosen immediately bowed and saluted: "Great Ms. Adele Chia, I salute you!"

Reason told him that this woman was just a collection of mana, but his senses told him that this was the real body of flesh and blood.

It is not a mana shell, but a body with flesh and blood and internal organs.

I couldn't help but feel envious in my heart: "The supreme mana is basically the same as the basic elements."

The calculation of the mana field equation shows that, in terms of decay time alone, even the most elementary mana particles in the highest zone have a passive decay time of 6000 years.

This already surpassed many unstable basic heavy elements, and for those mortals whose lives were only a hundred years old, it was no different from eternity.

And condensing the dharma body should only be the most basic application of the supreme belt mana.

Back to topic.

To his compliments, the young woman smiled lightly: "It's rare that you still remember my name, that's good."

She walked to a horizontal branch and sat down, grasping a twig with one hand to maintain her balance, and then swayed, like a young lady next door who was swinging on a swing.

She began to introduce the situation of the God Realm.

"There are two worlds in this world, the God Realm and the Mortal Realm."

"Three in the God Realm and five in the Mortal Realm."

"The superficial difference between Shenfan is size. The former is a thousand times larger than the latter. The essential difference is the strength of the world's basic mana field."

"That's right, it's the mana field concept you proposed. I'm also reading your book recently. It's really well written~ It's tiring to read, and the calculations are cumbersome. It gave me a headache."

She frowned tightly, as if she had taken a big mouthful of bitter huanglian soup.

He waved his hand with lingering fear: "I won't mention your spell book, let's keep it simple."

"What we are in is the mortal world, called Azure Pearl."

"The reason is very simple, because the sea in this world is very wide. In comparison, the land is much smaller. Looking down from the star realm hundreds of thousands of lami away, it looks like a beautiful blue bead."

Rosen's heart moved slightly: "The star world seems to be the universe." '

Adela Qiya's voice came out immediately.

"Three in the God Realm, the Emerald Green Wilderness, the Golden Red Immortal Realm and the Great Abyss Realm."

"Among them the High God of the Verdant Wastes is Enya, Mother Earth."

"Besides her, it is known that there are 72 true gods and tens of thousands of demigods living there, as well as countless ordinary extraordinary beings, and even more countless mortals of various races."

Rosen was shocked, but also a little strange.

"Isn't the mother of the earth the master of the land of gold?"

Adele Chia smiled lightly.

"You're right, Enya is the owner of the Golden Land, but that doesn't prevent her from being the Supreme God of the Green Wilderness."

"You have to understand that the true god can travel freely in all walks of life, and the mother of the earth in the golden land is just a projection of Enya's magic power in the blue pearl."

Speaking of this, Adela Qiya smiled slightly.

"I made it a bit complicated. To put it another way, Enya also has many territories in the mortal world, and the Golden Land is just one of them."

Rosen asked again: "Is Enya the master of the green wilderness?"

"No, the supreme god means that the god with the highest status is also the most powerful god."

"But the emerald green wilderness is very, very wide. Even the Supreme True God is not capable of controlling all areas, and it is impossible to make all life obey her will."

Rosen didn't understand.

Adele Chia gave a specific explanation.

"Let's put it this way, the Supreme God is very strong, but if several powerful gods form an alliance, they can fight against the power of the Supreme God. And there are not many such alliances of true gods."

Rosen understood.

In other words, the God Realm is a state where the gods are separated.

And in such a state, either the various forces will form a balance of power, or it will be turbulent.

But no matter what the situation is, the chances of promotion for the lower ranks will be much higher than those in the unified society.

As a result, Rosen yearned for the green wilderness even more.

He remembered the words of the Platinum Dragon King again, and immediately asked: "Then what is the source of all things?"

"Heh~ It was the little white dragon outside who told you, right?"

Rosen nodded.

Adela Qiya showed a trace of solemnity on her face.

She said in a concentrated voice: "The source of all things is not only connected to the eight realms of the gods and mortals, but also connected to the poles of life and death. It is the birthplace of all souls in the world and the final destination of all souls."

"But the source of all things is actually divided into two layers."

"The first level is the true origin, the apex of all things. It is the place where conscious living beings can never reach."

"The other layer is the extension of the extreme of all things over time, just like the river composed of time."

"This long river of time flows from the extreme of all things and runs through the world of all living beings. Because it dies and lives at the same time, it is also called the River of Styx."

"The oath made by the source of all things is called both the oath of all things and the oath of the Styx, and no life can violate it."

After listening carefully, Rosen immediately asked back.

"So, as long as you find the entrance of the Styx River and cross the Styx River, you can reach all walks of life?"

Adela Chia squinted and smiled.

"Yes."

"You are an extremely intelligent mortal, why don't you continue to guess and let me see how far your ingenuity can go."

Rosen continued to speculate.

"I have seen the power of Styx, surpassing most of the true gods. No, no, since no god can violate it, it should surpass all true gods."

"That's right. Go on."

"To cross the River Styx alone, either the soul itself has reached the realm of the true god, or it must be protected by the true god, or it must be protected by a true artifact."

"It seems that only the soul can travel through, but the material cannot."

"More than half of it is right, material can also be worn, of course, the price will be very high. Is there any more?"

Rosen pulled out the mana field equation, based on the existing knowledge of the High Zone, substituted it into the newly obtained Eight Realms model, and then came to the third conclusion.

"The realm of the true god should be level 10, Enya is at level 9, the father of the earth seems to be at level 9, and the abyss demon god is temporarily unknown, and you should be at level 3."

"And if there really is a river of Styx that runs through the eight realms, then the power of the river of Styx is level 10. And at least level 4 of power is required to cross it safely. Although it is possible to cross the river below level 4, it may be difficult."

After finishing speaking, Adela Chia looked at herself with complicated eyes.

Rosen immediately knew that he was right.

He continued: "You just said that multiple powerful gods united together can fight against the supreme god. According to my calculations, to achieve this effect, the range of powerful gods should be two levels of 7 or 8."

"If it is below level 7, then no amount of multi-god alliances can fight against the Supreme God."

This is because the highest energy band has a huge power span between levels 6 and 7.

Adela Qiya didn't speak, but nodded in agreement.

“那中等神力就是4、5、6级三级。而弱等神力，就是1、2、3三级。”

After hearing what Rosen said, Adela Qia sighed softly with emotion on her face.

"What you said is all right, I am indeed just a weak god."

Rosen has no extra emotions, he just wants to get more knowledge.

He immediately asked: "Great One, do you think I should go to the Green Wilderness now?"

Adela Chia nodded slowly.

"The Emerald Wilderness is a very good place. Although there are some darkness and killings, it is generally peaceful, and it is easy to find various spiritual sources to assist in improving your strength. It is very suitable for a demigod with outstanding talents like you to go there."

Rosen immediately asked: "Great One, what price should I pay to go to the Verdant Wilderness?"

Adele Chia turned her head and thought for a moment.

"First of all, your strength must at least reach the limit of indestructibility. Then, find a medium god, or simply a supreme god, and take you to the emerald green wilderness."

After finishing speaking, I emphasized: "Remember, you must reach the extreme of immortality, otherwise your soul will not be able to withstand the assimilation of the power of the Styx, and will merge into the Styx, and return to the extreme of all things along the river. Even the Supreme God can't save you. return."

Rosen nodded slightly: "I understand, thank you for your clarification, I will try my best to achieve the ultimate indestructibility."

Talking about going down the tree.

"You are going to the Continent of the Gods, right?"

"Ah."

Adela Qiya said: "The continent of the gods is very lively. Besides the supreme god, there are also middle-level gods who often enter it."

"They are the subordinate gods of the supreme god, they have very strange tempers, and they are all haunted. Even the drunks who collapsed in the stables may be the magic projection of the true god."

"So, you'd better keep a low profile and stop fighting everywhere, lest you get into big trouble."

Rosen suddenly felt that the land of the gods was a bit scary.

"Why does the true god like to stay in the mortal world?"

"It's not a matter of liking or disliking. The power of a medium-sized god is already very large, and creating a magic power projection is not a troublesome thing."

"And such a projection is just a pastime for the true god, but it is an irresistible existence for mortals, understand?"

After a pause, Adela Qiya added: "But you are already a demigod, and you are Enya's favorite. If you work hard, you can still fight against the magic projection."

Rosen hurriedly asked, "Why are you working so hard?"

Adela Qiya raised her finger and pointed to her forehead: "There is a lot of Enya's power in your soul core, pray to Enya, detonate them, any true god projection can't stand it."

Rosen was speechless: "Wouldn't I be completely dead?"

"That's why it's called desperate."

Rosen didn't want to do such a hopeless thing, so he felt that he should keep a low profile in the Continent of the Gods.

Thinking back to the other party's words, I was shocked again.

"My soul core has the power of Enya, so can Enya know my thoughts?"

Isn't his desktop exposed?
Adele Chia nodded, thought for a while, then shook her head: "I can know most of them, but not all of them."

She knew that Rosen would definitely ask, so she explained directly.

"All the souls in the world come from the apex of all things. Its manifestation is that the core of the soul, called the power of the apex of the soul, is the power of the Styx."

"do you understand?"

Rosen understood.

"My soul core, the outer layer is Enya's level 9 power, and the center is level 10 power."

"That's right, and this is the ultimate criterion for distinguishing whether a life is independent or not."

She laughed again: "So, you didn't die completely after you blew up the core of the soul, but just returned to the extreme of all things, okay, it's no different from being completely dead."

Rosen didn't want to explode.

To do this, it is natural to understand the logic of the true God as much as possible.

He continued to ask: "Does the true God care much about the mortal world?"

Adela Qiya shook her head: "I don't really care."

After thinking about it, she gave a metaphor.

"Although it is more powerful, God is also life. Since it is life, it naturally has various pursuits."

"For example, I am pursuing an environment where all things coexist naturally, and I also like to watch all kinds of interesting new things."

"The Supreme God Enya likes to cultivate exquisite gardens, or build various wonders. At the same time, she likes to see the flowers in the garden live in peace, and even love each other."

Rosen understood: "The land of gold is Enya's garden?"

"That's right, and it's one of my favorite gardens."

"As the current gardener of the garden, you must pay attention to making the garden full of flowers and wonderful, rather than stereotyped."

Rosen suddenly felt a sense of loss: "Is it just a garden?"

"This has been the case for at least the past 3 years, but in the future, there may be some variables."

"variable?"

"Because in the past few hundred years, the God Realm has not been peaceful."

Without waiting for Rosen to ask, Adela Chia took the initiative to explain.

"To put it simply, a mysterious and powerful dark true god came from the depths of the star realm. He hunted demigods and even weaker true gods everywhere in the three major god realms, and no one knew why he did this."

"What is the name of this true god?"

"I know, but I can't say it, and you must pay attention to this when dealing with the true god in the future, that is, you can't mention the name of the dark true god at any time, and you can't think hard in your head."

"If you mention it, or think about it seriously, you may be perceived by the true god, and then you will be targeted by him. Good gods, such as Enya, it's okay to mention it, other gods, just use pronouns."

This is very important information, related to the safety of life, Rosen immediately bowed to thank Adela Qia.

"One last reminder."

"Your intelligence is too high. Whatever you do, it may have a profound impact on the world, causing obvious changes in the garden of the gods."

"It's a good thing if you make a good change. But if you make a bad change, you'll be unlucky."

"So hold on tight, understand?"

"understood."

I wanted to go to the Continent of the Gods to show off my skills, but now it seems that I have to keep a low profile for the time being.

If you want to do great things, at least understand the situation.

"All that needs to be said has been said. You go."

Rosen paid his respects to Adela Chia at the end, then turned and flew away from the crown of the Great Eternal Tree.

Soon rejoin the Platinum Dragon King.

The dragon girl asked: "How is the situation?"

Rosen briefly talked about what Mother Nature said.

Long Nu thought about it carefully, and said with a smile: "If you want to talk about rules, the rules of the Gods Continent are that there are no rules."

"Whoever has the big fist and can fight is the rule."

"Of course there are differences in the intensity of fights. If there is a fight within the five domains, then the fight will be enough, and if you are not convinced, you will be killed."

"When fighting between the five domains, use whatever tricks you can, kill people, destroy cities, devour souls and eat meat, until you are completely wiped out."

Rosen heard a toothache: "Aside from fighting, are there other activities?"

"Yes, there are many."

"All kinds of martial arts competitions, as well as the gathering of mages that you must like, or the excavation of a certain ancient site, or the eruption of the doomsday volcano in the north and then go to grab the treasure. It's interesting."

After listening carefully, Rosen said, "We still keep calling."

"It is indeed much more violent than the Golden Continent, and the lifespan of a transcendent is also shorter. If it is a combat madman who actively participates in various battles, it will definitely be over in less than 500 years."

"What if we don't fight?"

"It's useless not to fight. If you don't grow fast enough, people will come to snatch you when they see you are easy to bully."

"Therefore, we must actively prepare, act cautiously, and it is best to join an alliance."

Speaking of this, the dragon girl glanced at Rosen.

"Why don't you join me in Longyu?"

Rosen smiled and said, "Why, you want me to help you manage Platinum Dragon City?"

Roland sent back a message telling him that demigods of ordinary races are unable to build a city independently, so there are three ways.

One was a wandering demigod wandering around, and one day he was unlucky and died suddenly.

Ertiao unites more than a dozen demigods of ordinary races to build a city together and advance and retreat together.If the management is good, everyone will have a good life. If the management is not good, there will be infighting, and it will be easy to end.

The last one is to invest in the city of a certain legendary race and become a demigod consul to help it manage the city.

This is the most comfortable.

When the sky falls and stands tall, the legendary city lord will not die, and the demigod manager will be able to live comfortably, even if the daily life is a little more annoying, entangled in all kinds of trivial matters, and also subject to the idleness of the legendary city lord.

The dragon girl smiled and said, "I know you don't want to do these trivial things, so go to my city and become an elder. Just give me some advice."

Rosen thought about it quickly, then nodded in agreement: "I agree."

His main purpose is to collect all kinds of extraordinary information, reach the extreme of immortality and even break through the realm of true gods.

Building a city in a chaotic place like the Continent of the Gods must involve a lot of energy, and it is far less comfortable to rely on a trusted native strongman.

The dragon girl was also very happy: "Haha, I will feel more at ease when you join me."

Afterwards, we flew all the way south, all the way to the backwater islands of the Glenn Giant Island, and then quickly raised to an altitude of 50 la meters, and began to cross the trench.

The first distance is about 1100 Lam.

With the two people's ability to hold their breath, it is naturally a trivial matter.

Soon, he crossed the first trench and came to the permafrost continent in the extreme south.

This continent is similar to Antarctica on Earth, showing that it is covered with extremely thick snow and ice, but unlike Antarctica, the ice and snow are much, much thicker, the area is much, much larger, and the temperature is much lower.

After flying for a while, Rosen found that the place was more than 140 degrees below zero.

As far as the eye can see, except for the snow, there is no trace of any life activity.

Rosen sighed: "This ghostly place is really a restricted area of ​​life, and only extraordinary people can pass through it. When the peak mage of mortals comes, he will be frozen into a popsicle for half an hour at most."

Dragon Girl nodded: "Who says it's not."

The Platinum Dragon King flew east all the way, and after flying about 5000 Lami, he saw a promontory protruding towards the northeast.

This is Cape Victory of the Antarctic Ice Continent. It is said that it was named after a great adventurer who is not afraid of death in the Gods Continent.

According to memory, go along the Cape of Victory, then fly high into the sky, and fly over the 1700-meter-wide trench, and you will be the Cape Thorns at the southernmost tip of the Gods Continent.

When flying over the trench, Rosen asked curiously: "I heard that when flying over the territories of the major lords, you need to pay a transit tax."

"That's right. For example, if I wear one, I have to pay a big stone."

"Then do you have it?"

"No."

"What will happen if you don't pay?"

"In a fight, if you win, you can pass. If you lose, you will be beaten to death, or you can admit defeat in time and pay double."

"Attention, you must admit defeat when you still have the strength to fight back. If you are beaten and crippled and surrender, others will not listen to you and will directly beat you to death."

"So, we gotta get ready to fight?"

Fortunately, he brought equipment, including rainbow armor, goblin charging stone, and a destiny spear.

The effect of the Destiny Spear is said to pierce all things, but it is not that magical, and it is also related to the power infused. Generally, it is the piercing level of power level + 8.

For example, Rosen is now Immortal 9.0, so he can pierce the physical defense of Immortality 17.

For another example, the bow of the Great Judgment that Davorens used to have is also in the hands of Rosen, but that thing is not very powerful, and it takes a lot of faith to shoot an arrow.

Without the power of faith, you have to consume mana, which is roughly the power focus of +7 indestructible level, and you cannot break through the indestructible limit.

Rosen didn't bother to bring that thing, so he left it in the Golden Land for the Serrandis town house.

Now that he was ready to fight, he grabbed his spear and began to exercise his muscles and bones.

He believes that with the cooperation of the three of them, even if they meet the Legendary Dragon King who is indestructible, they will be able to win the battle.

Platinum Dragon Girl laughed: "Ah, ah, ah~ Don't be so nervous."

"The Cape of Thorns belongs to the dragon domain, and I know all the dragon lords. You can owe the transit tax first, and settle the bill together at the end of the year."

Rosen spread his hands, and the blood that had just been ignited immediately turned cold again: "I thought there was going to be a fight."

Platinum Dragon Girl smiled lightly: "Don't worry, there will be fights in the future."

After flying for a while, a long coastline appeared on the horizon ahead, with both sides extending to infinity, a feature unique to continents.

Ahead is the Thorny Cape of the Gods Continent.

Before stepping onto the mainland, Platinum Dragon Girl suddenly added: "By the way, you can only do what a real dragon servant does, but don't tell the world."

"Do it quietly. My husband is in the way of my face, so I don't know. If you tell the world, he will lose face. It's hard to say.

Rosen frowned: "Then I think it's better not to do it at all."

There are some things that he does not publicize, but people who are interested will do so, so there is a big hidden danger in this matter.

The Platinum Dragon Girl shook her head again and again: "Oh, don't be afraid, I'm only talking about what happens, the chance is very small."

After finishing speaking, he added a few words: "I know that you want to collect extraordinary information to increase your strength. As a reward, I will collect it for you."

"Besides, my Platinum Dragon City also has three demigod consuls of ordinary races. If you go, I will let them show you their extraordinary hearts."

"Wait someday you will be upgraded to the ultimate level of immortality, no, as long as you reach the 17th level of immortality, you don't have to worry about my husband, do you?"

The reward was really rich.

After carefully weighing the risks and benefits, Rosen nodded, "That's fine."

"By the way, when the child comes out, you can help improve your extraordinary heart. The stronger the improvement, the better."

Rosen knew that there would be this supplementary clause, but it was not a troublesome thing for him, so he nodded: "Yes."

Platinum Dragon Girl nodded in satisfaction, and smiled happily: "The power of my Platinum Dragon City is about to increase, hehe~~"
