The Whispering Verses Chapter 1491: The Spirit of the Earth and the Earth’s Core Furnace
Chapter 1491 The Spirit of the Earth and the Earth's Core Furnace
This description sounds amazing, of course, and more importantly, Iluna is fine now.
Shad helped Iluna stand up. The latter looked like her senses were a little slow and she still looked around blankly. And Shade looked at the stone pillar in the middle of the island in the center of the magma lake, where black mud was constantly flowing out.
The divinity was there, he had felt it from the beginning. If the Guardian takes another step later, after he absorbs divinity and has a short-term "divine overflow" state beyond the thirteenth ring, even if the Guardian is immortal in this area, Shade will not be able to deal with it. he.
The desire for power in her heart has reached its peak at this time, but Iluna tugged on Shade's sleeve at this time, as if she finally came back to her senses:
"Someone whispered in my ear."
"What? Who?"
Xia De immediately looked around, worried that someone unexpected would suddenly appear.
"It's not the enemy, it's the soil under our feet."
She seemed to understand something:
"I remember you said that when you entered the black mud for the first time, a figure once gave you the spell of [fossils into mud]. And in the legend about the guardian that you just recited, there is also ' The title "Spirit of the Earth"
This is not earth-formed consciousness, but something close to it. Shade understood it as a natural phenomenon, but the manifestation of this natural phenomenon was like the birth of a soul from the earth.
"The earth told me something."
Iluna said seriously, this is brand new information:
"If you want to eliminate the guardians, you don't have to rely only on large fragments of the heart of the earth. If the earth can be purified, the guardians who have become one with the earth can also be affected in turn and wake up."
"Compared with this method, it is easier to use fragments of the heart of the earth to temporarily restore the guardian's consciousness to perform rituals. The witch of the fifth era mentioned other methods, but absorbing the filth of the earth It’s not simple.”
Shad commented, and Iluna continued:
"Also, there may be some problems with the [Feast of the Earth Mother Goddess] ritual. In the original era, this was the ancient **** of the earth? [The Earth Mother Goddess], gathering the power of the earth to entertain other ancient gods. . Today this ritual can still purify the earth, but the problem is that it will collect all the filth of the earth."
“We have to deal with that filth? How about I go home later and bring [God’s gift box] over?”
Xia De said, but saw Iluna shaking her head hesitantly:
"The collected filth is not just matter, but a concept. As long as it exists, even if it is sealed, it still means that the distortion of the earth still exists. Therefore, if you cannot deal with them, even if you are chosen If the ritual is successful, the disaster on the earth will still spread. My suggestion is to let the church seal the filth. Sealing them can at least reduce the degree of distortion of the earth. Or, find someone to swallow the filth, such as letting the chosen ones of the earth swallow them. Filth, only he has this ability. Then destroy the chosen ones and completely eliminate all filth."
After speaking, she sighed softly:
"But it is best not to use the latter method, otherwise even if the earth is purified, the instability of the material world will intensify from now on. After all, the earth is the cornerstone."
In this way, Shade probably understood why there was a thirteen-ring warlock like the Guardian, and the long-haired Luvia also asked Sirius to make sacrifices, why she failed in the end. It is very likely that at the end of the story of the Chosen One, Luvia failed to achieve the perfect ending that Shade thought.
But in addition to sealing the filth gathered by the banquet, there may be other ways. For example, after transforming into a god, Shade may be able to deal with those things, so there is no need to think too much at this time.
And if the gods cannot solve it for various reasons. Shade probably understood what the [Guardian] meant when he briefly woke up just now and said that someone must make a sacrifice.
"Can you still continue to communicate with the spirit of the earth now?"
Shad asked, after Iluna nodded:
"So, what will happen if I try to extract the power here now?"
He pointed to the stone pillar engraved with the ancient sacred emblem and flowing with black silt. Iluna stroked the sweat on her forehead, closed her eyes, relaxed and entered a deep state of meditation:
"This stone pillar itself actually has no power. Everything you can get is a gift from the earth and will not have any impact."
Iluna said.
"So do you know how we are going to get out of here?"
Xia De asked again. Iluna closed her eyes again and shook her head slightly after a moment:
"Originally, as long as we touch this stone pillar, we can appear in any area of Randall Valley. But when the guardian left, he sealed the Heart of the Earth, so this method does not work now. He is now simply the Heart of the Earth. ”
"This is a good thing. The more powerful the guardian is, the more powerful our future companions will be."
Shad said, indicating to Iluna not to worry about leaving. He continued to hold the fragment of the Heart of the Earth obtained from the Mithril Cube:
"Wait for me a moment, we will leave immediately. Then, it will be the final battle."
Eluna nodded, but when she saw the stone in Shade's hand, she frowned slightly:
"The fragments in your hands are also contaminated."
"Really?"
"The degree of pollution is very slight, but it is indeed not pure enough. In fact, including the two small stones held by the two of us, these stones are impure. After all, the distortion of the earth did not occur in the past two years. , so the closer these stones are to modern times, the more serious the pollution. The stone you just gave me is the purest."
That's because the stone from the "Eternal Night City" had been in the night for who knows how long before it was seen by Shade and Fiona in the middle of the fifth era. If the introduction to the exhibits at the [Midnight Art Museum] is correct, this stone was most likely separated when the ancient **** left in the Second Era.
"No matter whether it is pure or not, as long as it can make the guardian wake up briefly."
Xia De said, then looked at the irregular stone pillar:
"Finally, this moment has come again."
He and Iluna walked towards the pillar together. Because she had swallowed part of the power of the Heart of the Earth, Iluna was now able to walk here on her own, while Shade was still holding the pillar. Stone.
Looking closer, in fact, on the irregular stone pillar, in addition to the holy symbol symbol representing the ancient **** [Mother Earth], there are also densely packed very small letters.
Those letters are changing every moment with the slight trembling of the ground, forming ancient stories related to the earth that cover almost the entire world, and the language of the letters is something Shad and Iluna have never known. seen.
If the Heart of the Earth, which has been in this magma lake for who knows how long, is the core of the material world, then this stone pillar is probably the core of the Heart of the Earth.
Eluna didn't recognize those ancient characters, and when she got close to the stone pillar, she couldn't bear the pressure and couldn't observe it carefully. Although Shade was in a similar situation, at least he understood the words on the stone pillars and deciphered some of the changes before he had a splitting headache:
"The special space left by the Mother Earth is called the [Earth Furnace]."
Shad told Iluna what he can currently know:
“It is a white mist space that is very similar to the current magma lake environment in the center of the earth. The [Earth Core Furnace] contains the power of the earth. Any material put into it can be tempered by the power of the earth, even the human body and soul. It’s the same thing. In addition, relying on the power of the earth’s core furnace, you can monitor the dynamics of the earth and know the natural disasters and weather conditions in the near future. This is just a basic function, and I can’t explain more.”
"The furnace in the center of the earth? So where is the entrance?"
Eluna asked, Shade pointed at his feet:
"The entrance to the [Earth Furnace] can be formed only under certain circumstances. Just like where we are now, a very simple ritual can permanently solidify the 'door' under our feet. It is different from the doors we encountered before. Differently, the door of the Earth Core Furnace can not only be a normal door, but also a trap door embedded in the ground. Oh, except here, it requires very special circumstances to permanently fix the entrance of the [Earth Core Furnace]. However, Let’s discuss these things later.”
Xia De said, looking down at the mud flowing out of the bottom of the stone pillar, which almost covered his feet:
"Seek gifts from the earth, Iluna, the earth is with us."
So, the two of them stretched out their hands and placed their palms on the surface of the stone, one on the left and the other on the right. The first thing they sensed was the filth that was trying to distort themselves, but the stone in Shade's hand and the power in Iluna's heart resisted the pollution of the earth for them.
Subsequently, the two saw different powers.
[Outlander, you have come into contact with a "miracle". 】
"Her" voice was very soft, and Shade's eyes had already seen the black stone pillars glowing in his hands. He didn't know what Iluna next to him saw at this moment. He only knew that divinity was in front of him only separated by a thin stone wall at this moment. The longing desire in his heart almost turned into a substantial Lingxia at this moment. De madness.
Fortunately, "she" always appears at the most appropriate time:
【I am you.】
"You are me!"
Subtle golden light seeped out from the cracks in the stone. The light was like a sharp knife, leaving deep cracks on Shade's fingertips, and then a bright light radiated from the cracks on Shade's fingertips.
The cracks and the light followed the cracks on Shade's arms and crawled all over his body. Because this drop of divinity was not robbed by Shade, and the original owner of the divinity did not mind the loss of his own power, so the huge, ancient and indescribable power entered Shade's body as Shade took a deep breath. in the soul.
