Gods: The Swarm - Chapter 604
c604 Awakening
In the vast universe, the passage of time seems to be insignificant, and its traces seem to be swallowed by the boundless starry sky, losing the meaning of existence.
The wisdom of silicon-based creatures who only rely on instinct to eat and survive is still in ignorance, and they have no concept of the passage of time.
Only the strange crystal, while repeating the swallowing and backbiting of silicon-based creatures countless times, is no longer dim at the beginning, and gradually reveals the color of glass.
The soft fluorescence emanating from the inside and outside seems to be bound by an invisible force, lingering on the surface of the multi-faceted crystal.
The slow gradual change process and the weak restrained luster form an increasingly irresistible temptation for silicon-based creatures.
They are like moths attracted by lights, instinctively swarming in and fighting frantically.
The final winner, among the piles of corpses, eagerly swallowed the strange crystal, and quickly turned into dust under the backlash.
The crystal became brighter and brighter, and its influence range continued to expand, attracting more foragers.
This cycle repeated until a certain moment…
“Buzz!”
An invisible wave ran through the entire planet, and a dull explosion sounded in the depths of the soul of the silicon-based creatures.
Even if they were on the back of the planet, they couldn’t help but crawl on the ground, trembling.
At the source of the wave, the glass-like crystal slowly floated in the air, and inside it, a golden flame suddenly emerged, jumped, and gradually grew stronger.
The divine fire broke through the invisible constraints on the surface of the crystal, ignited the dark sky, and illuminated the vast land.
The scattered divine light seemed warm, but in fact it was extremely deadly.
Wherever it was reflected, everything was burned!
Magma, crystal ore, the bodies of silicon-based creatures, and even their souls, all burned and rose into higher-dimensional energy.
In an instant, the endless divine flames had spread over half of the wild planet.
Fortunately, the burning divine flames quickly converged and condensed into billions of rivers of fire, converging on the crystal hanging high in the sky.
Inside the crystal, the divine fire was not as violent as it was at the beginning, but gradually became milder.
As the divine flames devoured it all, the divine light on the surface of the crystal was completely suppressed, the color returned to dim, and it slowly fell from the sky.
The earth burned by the divine flames has turned into a thick layer of powder, but there is no heat left, and it is even colder than before.
The falling crystal, under intentional control, has no surface and pierces into the deep mantle.
Soon, the storm caused by the reverse airflow buried all traces.
In the raging wind and sand, a shadow condensed by divine power looked up at the boundless dark starry sky, stopped for a while, and disappeared only when the storm gradually subsided.
Deep in the sea, the dim crystal occasionally flickered.
“Alas, I was impulsive, greed is the original sin!”
The silent muttering came from the fluctuations at the soul level, containing unconcealed regret.
Han Fei was not sure what state he was in now.
Although his body had turned into nothingness, his consciousness was extremely clear, and his control over mental power reached an unprecedented level.
He smiled at himself, his thoughts drifting: “Soul out of the body? Or became a helpless wild ghost?”
Even though human civilization has long surpassed the age of gods and the level of science and technology is extremely high, research on the soul level has always made limited progress.
In some aspects, they are even worse than the group of scientific research madmen headed by Dimi in Han Fei’s divine domain.
This is a natural racial disadvantage, and has little to do with hard work.
Han Fei’s shallow understanding of the soul, whether in the territory of human civilization or the explored universe, has never seen a pure soul body.
Of course, not finding it does not mean that the true soul does not exist, but with the existing understanding, human souls need a carrier.
Once the soul loses its carrier, it will quickly dissipate and decompose into meaningless information flow and weak high-dimensional energy.
Even if you become an eternal true god, you can abandon your body, but you have to use the godhead to carry your soul.
Han Fei’s current situation seems to be a slight exception.
Not only did his soul not completely dissipate, but it became more and more different, as if it had broken free from some kind of bondage, and there was a sense of sublimation that was cleansed of dust.
As a scientific research madman who has lived two lives, he knows that after exhausting everything, even the most unlikely answer may become the final result.
The sudden crazy speculation made him so excited that his soul trembled.
“My soul has been sublimated into the so-called divine soul. Is this crystal the divine nature that I rely on?”
“This source fire seed… is it really a divine nature in essence? It is even possible that it is a higher level existence than the divine nature of the eternal true god?”
Han Fei was not fantasizing without reason. Before, when his consciousness just woke up, he had no time to think. Before he really figured out the situation, he had subconsciously controlled the divine power.
A whole set of emergency avoidance actions were instinctive reactions driven by a strong will to survive.
Now thinking back, he clearly condensed a divine power phantom.
But… this is in the real universe, not in the world of gods!
He is considered a peak god. His body and soul have been transformed for a long time. His soul strength is far from enough to support the condensation of a divine power phantom in the real universe.
The divine power will quickly dissipate when it leaves the body. The only way to deal with it is to temporarily reduce its dimension and transform it into a more stable divine energy crystal.
The divine energy crystal will re-upgrade its energy dimension when it is stimulated.
Only the divine power of the eternal true God can be manifested at will and always maintain a high-dimensional existence.
“But my divine domain has not materialized in the real universe, and I have not been able to achieve the final leap to become a god!”
“My body is gone, and only my divine soul is left?”
Han Fei was really mixed with sadness and joy, and his mood was complicated and difficult to understand.
If the speculation is correct, he is now almost the same as a hermit crab.
Although the divine soul is immortal, and it seems that he has picked up an unknown divine nature for nothing, without the divine body and divine domain, the road ahead is still difficult.
In the real universe, there have been eternal true gods, who were severely injured by the enemy, and their divine bodies and divine domains were destroyed. They could only rely on the damaged divine nature to carry their divine souls and struggle to survive for a few more years.
But the destruction of the divine domain means that the core clan has lost the foundation for reproduction and can no longer continue to provide the true god with a stable and pure power of faith.
Even if there are still some core clans left in other places, they will be like losing their roots.
Without the continuous infiltration of the divine domain, the faith lines of these clans will gradually break and can no longer provide the power of faith.
Completely losing the faith power of the core clans, unable to condense into divinity, the burning of the divine fire will completely lose the source of firewood.
When the firewood is burned out and the divine fire is extinguished, the lingering true god will inevitably die.
Han Fei was naturally unwilling and ended up like this.
After all, according to his original situation, as long as he developed step by step, he would be able to reach the end of the road to becoming a god sooner or later, and there is a great possibility that he will become an eternal true god!
As it is now, he has ended up being neither a god nor a ghost, a huge loss! .
“Perhaps, my situation can be called a…, pseudo-god!”
Han Fei was happy in the midst of suffering, and temporarily gave his existence a title that sounded more reasonable.
