Chapter 2297 A Night Chat with Close Friends
"Because the ritual is there."
The void outside, the road to light piled up by the void light algae, the stone platform hanging at the end of the void, and the inverted light ball above the platform are actually a special ritual ritual.
Even the reason why Feng chose to put the treasure in the "void corresponding to the center of the tidal world" is also part of the ritual.
The name of this ritual is the first phase ritual of Taiande.
Taiande is a whisperer who believes in evil gods. Although he was born in a remote primitive plane, he got a lot of ritual information from the evil god's mumbling. Later, a wizard went to Taiande's plane and got the stone tablet notes of this ancient whisperer. From the notes, a lot of ritual information was found, all named with Taiande as the prefix, which added a lot of new blood to ritual studies.
Although the rituals of the Taiande series are basically a bit evil and are mostly related to some unclean evil gods, after thousands of years of analysis by a large number of wizards who are proficient in ritual studies, many of the evil in the rituals have been eliminated, leaving only the essence of the rituals. However, due to the lack of evil, many rituals are still weaker than the original.
The First Phase Ritual belongs to this category.
It can project a ray of world will onto the ritual platform through various pre-set rituals.
However, due to the lack of the evil of the original, the ritual that originally only took two years to complete was stretched a hundred times, and it was not completed until two hundred years later.
"Two hundred years?" Angel captured this time point. Feng hid the treasure six hundred years ago, and the void storm appeared around the treasure two hundred years later. This number is obviously not a coincidence.
"The First Phase Ritual was arranged by Mr. Feng? Did the void storm also appear because of this?"
Feng nodded: "Yes."
"Why? Or is it because of the Book of Kells?"
Feng: "It is indeed partly due to the Book of Kells, but I also contributed to it. After all, the Tide Realm has been closed for more than three thousand years, and it has reached a limit. I also have a certain feeling for the Tide Realm. Instead of letting unknown strangers wreak havoc, it is better to leave it to you who followed my footsteps."
Angel frowned, his eyes full of doubts. I don't understand what Feng means at all.
Feng also noticed that Angel looked confused, and he was actually a little surprised: "You still don't understand what I mean?"
Angel shook his head: "I don't understand."
Feng: "Don't you know the God-granted power of the subsidiary plane?"
Angel shook his head again.
Feng was full of astonishment: "Isn't this basic knowledge? Have I not returned to the South Region for a long time, and the South Region has even lost this basic knowledge?"
Feng was puzzled, and finally could only mutter to himself that the wizard world in the South Region was becoming more and more marginalized. Then, he told the situation of the God-granted power from the beginning.
The fusion of two planes is not as simple as imagined. There are many invisible games here. For example, most of the high-level life forms in the subsidiary plane may be liquidated during the fusion. This is actually the result of a game to prevent powerful life from becoming an obstacle to the fusion of the two worlds.
Not only powerful life may be liquidated, but the will of the subsidiary plane as the "weak" party will also be liquidated.
However, this liquidation is different from the imagined destruction, but a restart and rebirth.
Of course, the real situation cannot be summarized by a single word "newborn". There are many complex situations. If we really want to discuss it, even if we hold a seminar for 10,000 people for a hundred years, there will probably be no absolute answer.
The reason why "newborn" is used simply is because the will of the subordinate plane can be regarded as a newborn will.
And the power granted by God can only be granted by the newborn world will.
No one knows the specific source of the power granted by God for the time being. But what we know is that when intelligent life passes the initial phase ceremony and contacts the projection of the origin of the world will for the first time, the world will favor you.
This favor will not give you any direct rewards.
But it will bring you a lot of convenience in the development of the future world.
This convenience, in summary, is the general trend.
The reason why the Crown Star Church can monopolize the Glory World is because it has the general trend of the Glory World.
Let's take another example, the extreme sect. Although the extreme sect did not really occupy the general trend of the Southern Territory Wizard World, everything they did was good for the world itself, and the great will naturally favored them, which was equivalent to letting them master the general trend.
"In other words, the power granted by heaven is equal to the master of a world?" Angel's eyes could not help but light up.
Feng shook his head: "No, the power granted by heaven only gives you the seeds for convenient passage in the tidal world. In the overall trend, you have an advantage. As for the master of a world, this is nonsense and impossible, unless you have the strength to open up a world yourself."
After Feng's detailed explanation, Angel roughly understood.
In fact, it is just like the son of destiny in the novel, but it is a version that is cut n times. If Angel had the power granted by heaven, Angel would not get a physical reward in the tidal world, nor would he pick up treasures as soon as he went out. He would still be unlucky, and even die. Only in the development that can conform to the general trend of the world, Angel can get a little advantage.
And what is the development of the general trend of the world? For example, human beings discovered fire and used fire, and began to move towards civilization from obscure primitive instincts; from the worship of nature in hunting and gathering to the agricultural era of utilizing nature, these are all general trends.
To put it bluntly, it is the trend of world development.
"The next big trend of the Tidal Realm is the opening of the gate, the influx of intelligent life from the outside world, and the development of the Tidal Realm." Feng: "If you get the divine power, you will have a certain advantage in the development of the Tidal Realm this time."
"Of course, it is basically impossible to become the next Glory Realm."
The reason why the Crown Star Church can monopolize the Glory Realm is not only because of the big trend, but also because the resources of the Glory Realm are very scarce. The resources of the Tidal Realm are so rich that all wizards desire to have them. Even if Angel occupies the big trend and has the Savage Cave behind him, it is basically impossible to monopolize them.
"The divine power only has one chance. Once the two realms are completely open, the divine power will basically not come again. Therefore, instead of letting the Tidal Realm develop itself in the future, it is better to give you the divine power and see if you can bring some light to the future of the Tidal Realm."
Angel alone cannot change the big trend. However, with the Savage Cave behind him, he can try to formulate the rules of the Tidal Realm in the future and determine the pattern.
This is actually what Angel is doing now.
Next, Feng told Angel in detail how to face the projection of the will of the tidal world through the first phase ritual.
After Angel understood almost everything, Feng asked again: "Do you have any other questions?"
Angel thought for a while: "The last question... the game, is it over?"
Looking at Angel's cautious expression, Feng couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, the game you mentioned is over here."
"Then I have no problem."
Feng: "You have no problem, but I still have an unsolved doubt."
Feng paused and looked at Angel: "I have handed over the whole truth, including the final treasure, to you. Now, can you answer the question I asked at the beginning?"
"How did you stop the demon disaster?"
Angel was silent.
Feng sighed slightly: "It seems that I can't get an answer."
Angel hesitated for a moment, but still said: "If Mr. Feng wants to ask about the result of the demon disaster, I can tell you that the true spirit of the Lord of Flameless has fallen. But if you want to ask about the process, I can only say... I killed him, but I didn't kill him."
"You killed him, but you didn't kill him?" Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about the answer.
He could see that Angel should not lie. If he really wanted to lie, there was no need to give such an inconsistent answer.
The meaning of the two sentences before and after this answer is obviously contradictory. What does it mean...?
Feng asked Angel a few more questions from the side, but Angel stopped answering. It can be seen that this answer is already Angel's bottom line.
Angel was unwilling to answer, there must be some secret. He killed him, but he didn't kill him. The "he" before and after should refer to one person, right? Why does one person have completely contradictory answers? Could it be that...
Feng thought of a possibility: with Angel's strength, he is completely unqualified to stand in front of the demon, even if it is just the demon spirit. Then the one who took action may not be Angel, but another "person", but this "person" borrowed Angel's hand?
Feng said this guess.
Angel remained silent, but Feng saw that Angel's eyes moved slightly.
"I think this is the real answer. However, Angel is unwilling to say it. Maybe the identity of that person is very important... He can kill the demon spirit, and he borrowed the hand of an ordinary wizard like Angel. The other party must be extraordinary." Feng imagined that there might be a giant behind Angel.
It is indeed better not to inquire too much about such a giant. Maybe, just by saying the other party's name, the other party can detect the situation here.
Feng himself is a wisp of consciousness in the painting. It doesn't matter if he is remembered, but he doesn't want to cause trouble for his real body.
You know, if such a giant really exists, if the other party learns about the "Book of Kells", he might really feel that he has been "calculated" and be furious.
So, it is better not to explore.
"It's almost time." Feng said.
Angel looked up and said, "Is Mr. Feng going to disappear?"
"What do you mean by disappearing? I am just a wisp of consciousness. Although I am also Feng, I will not disappear. What disappears is..." Feng subconsciously retorted, but after a few words, he found that the more he talked, the more confusing it became, so he simply shut up: "Forget it, just think of me as disappearing."
"Then I'll say goodbye?"
Feng: "Wait."
Feng called Angel to wait for a moment, but did not continue to speak. Instead, he lightly tapped the table and a paintbrush appeared out of thin air.
Then, Feng tore off the bark of the tree behind him, and with a casual touch, the bark turned into a dark canvas. Feng took the paintbrush and waved it towards the sky, borrowing the deep ink from the night sky to outline the outline on the canvas. Then he borrowed some pure bright colors from the starlight, and with a stroke of the brush, dots of fluorescent light appeared on the canvas.
In a few strokes, Ingres saw Feng paint an oil painting.
The scene in the painting was exactly the scene of their conversation at this moment. With the starry sky as the curtain and the wilderness as the background, Ingres and Feng sat opposite each other, and the starlight cast a light and shadow on their faces, all talking and laughing.
When the painting was completed, the entire starry sky seemed to release energy and was reflected in this painting.
At the same time, Angel felt the surrounding space begin to slowly darken. It was just hazy and gloomy before, but now it has become completely dark, as if the entire world in the painting is blending with darkness.
The original magic in the air also dissipated. This originally desolate world in the painting turned into a real world of death in an instant.
When the world was about to collapse, Feng slowly tore off a piece of bark again, quickly made an elegant wood grain frame, and put the oil painting into the frame.
Then Feng handed the entire painting to Angel.
"This is my last gift to you." When Feng handed it to Angel, he was still talking: "I didn't want to give it to you originally, but you are worth it..."
When Angel looked at this painting, he could feel that this was no ordinary painting. There was a hidden energy in the painting.
Although this energy is not much, its essence is quite high. Only wizards above legend can condense such energy.
There is no doubt that Feng condensed the energy of the entire world into this painting.
Precisely because of this, Feng's ray of consciousness could have remained for more than half a day, but now it ended prematurely.
"I marked the name of this painting in the lower left corner."
Angel took a look and saw a simple painting title in the lower left corner: "Best Friends... Night Talk?"
Feng heard the confusion in Angel's final voice: "Why, do you think I'm not worthy of being your best friend?"
Angel wanted to say that it wasn't that they were unworthy, but that they just met for the first time. Maybe a few decades later, in retrospect, they could be called old friends, but they were directly promoted to close friends, which confused Angel.
Although he thought so, Angel did not dare to say so. Instead, he said: "Mr. Feng is above the legend. I have just entered the wizard's path. I feel that I am not worthy."
Feng smiled and said: "There is nothing unworthy. I said you are worth it."
After a pause, Feng continued: "Also, I didn't name the painting specifically for you to see, but for my real body to see."
Angel: "Huh?"
Feng's body had begun to become transparent, and he knew that he was about to disappear, so he no longer spoke vaguely, but said bluntly: "You have come into contact with the mysterious level, which is a quite remarkable achievement. I only speak for myself, I hope my real body can maintain a friendly relationship with you. Maybe you can really enter the mysterious realm in the future, and my real body can use this to establish a relationship. "
"The energy in the painting represents the special energy of Turing's Cube. If you encounter any difficulties, you can take this painting to the Turing's Cube people, or my real body, take out this painting, and they will Got it.”
After the words fell, Feng's neck had turned into little fluorescent lights and scattered.
"Looking forward to our meeting in the future."
As the last sentence fell, Feng had disappeared. At the same time, a passage appeared in front of Angel, and the opposite side of the passage was the stone platform outside.
Angel looked at the world in the painting that had collapsed for the most part, and quickly signaled Wang Wang to return to the bracelet space first.
After doing all this, Angel looked at the painting "Friends Talking at Night" on the table.
After hesitating for a moment, Angel sighed softly in his heart and picked up the framed oil painting.
He turned around and walked into the passage.
