Chapter 604 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 that rely solely 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 radiating from the inside out 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, on top of the pile of corpses, eagerly swallowed the strange crystal, and quickly turned into dust under the backbite.
The crystal became brighter and brighter, and its influence range continued to expand, attracting more foragers.
This cycle continued until a certain moment...
"Buzz!"
An invisible wave ran through the entire planet, and a dull explosion sounded from the depths of the souls of silicon-based creatures.
Even if they were on the back of the planet, they couldn't help but crawl on the ground and tremble.
At the source of the wave, the glass-like crystal slowly floated in the air, and inside it, a wisp of 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 earth.
The scattered divine light seemed warm, but it was actually extremely deadly.
Where it was reflected, everything was burned!
Magma, crystal ore, the bodies and even the souls of silicon-based creatures were all burned and rose into higher-dimensional energy.
In an instant, the endless divine flame had spread to half of the wild planet.
Fortunately, the burning divine flames quickly converged and condensed into millions of rivers of fire, which flowed into the crystal stone hanging high in the sky.
Inside the crystal stone, the divine fire was not as violent as it was at the beginning, but gradually became milder.
As the divine flames devoured it, the divine light on the surface of the crystal stone was completely suppressed, and the color returned to dim, slowly falling from the sky.
The land burned by the divine flames has turned into a layer of dust hundreds of miles thick, but there is no heat left, and it is even colder than before.
The falling crystal stone, under intentional control, sank into the surface and pierced into the deep mantle.
Soon after, the storm caused by the reverse airflow buried all traces.
In the raging wind and sand, a phantom condensed by divine power looked up at the endless dark starry sky, and stayed there for a long time until the storm gradually stopped, and then it disappeared.
Deep underground, the dim crystal stone occasionally flickered.
"Oh, I was impulsive. Greed is the original sin!"
Silent mumblings, coming from the fluctuations at the soul level, contain unconcealed regret.
Han Fei is not sure what state he is in now.
Although his body has turned into nothingness, his consciousness is extremely clear, and his control over mental power has reached an unprecedented level.
He smiled self-deprecatingly, his thoughts drifting: "Soul out of the body? Or become a helpless wild ghost?"
Even though human civilization has long entered the era of gods and the level of technology is extremely high, research on the soul level has always made limited progress.
In some aspects, it is 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 it has nothing to do with hard work or not.
Based on Han Fei's shallow understanding of the soul, whether it is the territory of human civilization or the explored universe and starry sky, there has never been a pure soul body.
Of course, not finding it does not mean that it really does not exist, but with the current understanding, human souls need carriers.
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 and can abandon your body, you still have to use the divine nature 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, with a sense of sublimation that was cleansed of dust.
As a scientific research madman who has lived two lives, he knows that after exhausting all the options, even the most unlikely answer may become the final result.
The sudden crazy speculation made him excited and his soul trembled.
"My soul has been sublimated into the so-called divine soul, and this crystal is the divine nature I rely on?"
"This source fire seed... is it really a divine nature in essence, and there is even a possibility that it is a higher level existence than the divine nature of the eternal true god?"
Han Fei was not having groundless delusions, but before, when his consciousness just woke up, he had no time to think, and before he really figured out the situation, he had subconsciously controlled the divine power.
The whole set of emergency avoidance actions were instinctive reactions driven by a strong will to survive.
Now thinking back, I clearly condensed a phantom of divine power.
But... this is in the real universe, not in the world of gods!
Even for the peak gods, whose bodies and souls have undergone long-term transformations, their soul strength is far from enough to support the condensation of divine power phantoms in the real universe.
Divine power will quickly dissipate when it leaves the body, and it can only be temporarily reduced in dimension and converted into a more stable divine energy crystal.
When the divine energy crystal is stimulated, it will re-upgrade in energy.
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 clans have lost their reproductive foundation 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 permeation 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 of the core followers, unable to condense into divinity, the burning of the divine fire also completely lost its 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 to end 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!
Now, he has ended up like a god, a ghost, a huge loss! .
"Perhaps, my situation can be called a..., a false god!"
Han Fei found joy in suffering and temporarily gave his existence a title that sounded more reasonable.
