Boom!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
As the divine power and divinity belonging to Talos, the God of Storms, began to spurt out, dazzling bright lightning poured down from the patio above the cave, instantly killing the last thirty survivors together with their bodies and souls.
.
The latter did not even have a chance to react, so they permanently disappeared from this world and even the entire universe.
And no magic, magic, not even the gods themselves can reshape their souls.
Because those thunder and lightning contain terrifying destructive power, which is completely different from ordinary lightning energy attribute attacks.
There is no doubt that this is a very obvious act of silence.
The purpose is to prevent the biggest secret in the process of becoming a god from being leaked, so that too many mortals or demons, devils and other lower-level creatures know the secret.
At the same time, the torn souls of those followers were also transformed into the purest energy, which poured into the life essence released by Velshalon from the shattered phylactery, causing it to further begin to sublimate.
I just don’t know whether these divine lightnings were deliberately arranged by him, or whether they came from the hands of the storm god Talos behind them.
"That's it!
The real purpose of these runes is not to control and guide divine power, it is just a side effect.
Rather, it is to firmly bind the Lich soul that is released after the phylactery is broken, ensuring that it will not be destroyed by the ubiquitous death rules, and that it will not be annihilated no matter how huge the impact of divine power is.
Sure enough, every god is a master of playing with the soul.
Only demons, devils and yugoloths from the lower planes can barely compete with them.
But the difference is that they have slightly different emphasis on the use of soul power.
Gods use the faith and identity generated by the essence of the soul;
The devil uses the memories and emotions generated during the soul's degradation and corruption, and then squeezes them to extract the energy as the basis for the operation of Baator's hell;
Demons take advantage of the purest chaos, evil and primitive instinctive desires in human nature, as well as the irreversible influence of the will of the abyss on mortal souls;
As for the yugoloths, they should be somewhere between devils and demons. Although they are equally evil, they mainly derive their power from the selfishness of mortal souls..."
Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and stared at Vesalun with interest in the huge magic circle in the middle of the cave, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
In fact, this god-conferring ceremony was pretty much what he expected. Its inner core was quite simple and crude, so crude that it could be said that it had no technical content at all.
It is quite consistent with the character of Talos, the God of Storms, who is irritable, irritable, and keen on destruction and destruction.
To sum it up simply in one sentence, with the help of these runes and magic circles created by powerful divine power, a person's soul is forcibly imprisoned in the middle, so that it cannot be captured by the rules of death, nor can it be captured by any form of power, including divine power.
Completely destroyed within.
It's basically like locking up blood. No matter how much pain, despair and tearing it endures, the soul will always remain intact.
As for the rest, divine power and divinity are poured into the dead, forcing its life essence to evolve and sublimate to a higher level until the divinity is ignited into a divine spark.
As for whether the owner of the soul can withstand this terrifying transformation without collapsing or going crazy, that is another matter.
Anyway, if it fails, its soul will either become an extremely evil and chaotic god, or it will become a divine-like being similar to ancient evil beings, which can be controlled and driven by Talos, the God of Storms.
And if you are lucky enough to succeed, at the moment when the divine spark is ignited, you will definitely find the part that suits you best from the endless knowledge in the universe, and then quickly obtain the priesthood to form your own philosophical concepts and doctrines.
In other words, after becoming a god, the memory, identity and behavior habits of a mortal are no longer important, and you can completely let go of them.
What is the force of flying bricks?
What does it mean to work miracles with great strength?
That’s it!
Obviously, the temptation to become a god can really drive countless mortals crazy.
Even with such huge risks, legendary mages with extremely high intelligence levels such as Veshalon, Sazastan, and Irenikas are still willing to risk their lives to try.
After figuring out all the information he wanted to know, Zuo Susuo no longer hid himself, but generously dispelled the invisibility magic effect and walked out of the hiding place. He bowed slightly to Vesalun, who could not move at all, and smiled.
He greeted me with a greeting: "Good evening, Lord Veshalon. I think you are holding on to the desire to succeed from a mortal to a god. I'm afraid you never dreamed that someone would find you at this time, right?"
"..."
Velsalun was obviously unable to speak, let alone control his body and soul. He could only reluctantly turn his neck twenty degrees, and aimed at the sudden intruder with his empty eye sockets that constantly gushed out divine power.
You don't need to ask to know that he, who has no ability to resist, must be extremely nervous and panicked now, and he also has no way to control the energy to launch an attack.
Because Zuo Si stopped when he reached the edge of the huge magic circle, he obviously knew that his control of divine power was limited to this cylindrical area within the magic circle.
Moreover, this immovable process of becoming a god will last a full forty-eight hours, which is more than two days.
During this period, if he is attacked by the outside world or the magic circle under his feet is destroyed, then the result waiting for Velsalun is that his soul will be completely torn into pieces under the impact of the Eye of the Storm, or he will become something that even he himself
The unknown monster.
In fact, the more powerful the magical rituals and legendary spells that can produce huge effects, the longer they require continuous concentration to cast.
Like the famous legendary magic [Amon Aitor's Eternal Blazing Sun], the casting time alone takes up to eleven minutes.
In addition, one hundred and seventy-six spellcasters must contribute a first-level spell slot, twelve spellcasters must contribute a second-level spell slot, four casters must contribute a third-level spell slot, and one spellcaster must contribute a third-level spell slot.
A seventh-level spell slot, plus a legendary spell slot of the legendary mage himself.
In other words, releasing this legendary spell that can create a magical sun out of thin air requires the cooperation of a total of nearly two hundred arcane spell casters and a collective casting time of up to eleven minutes.
In addition, legendary spells such as [Demi-Lich Flesh Technique], [Legendary Anti-Biological Force Field], [Legendary Spell Deflection], [Origin], [Crazy Bonfire], [Oath of Alliance] and other legendary spells also take a long time.
The casting time is very long, and some even require dozens or even hundreds of days.
As for those legendary magics that can be used in actual combat, most of them have relatively small power and impact, and only require a standard action or an instant to be successfully released.
In contrast, many legendary magics that require one minute to cast may not be able to be used in actual combat.
Basically, they are either instantly countered, or their opponent is torn apart, the magic effect is removed, and the body's protection is stripped away, and then a set of combos are carried out to send them away.
Xia En VII once said that legendary magic can only be used when it has an overwhelming advantage in strength, or when its subordinates or summoned creatures successfully restrain the opponent. Otherwise, it will be difficult to have much room for use in actual combat.p>
Of course, except for some spells that can exist for a long time or even permanently after being cast.
For example, Zuo Si himself now has [Legendary Mage Armor] on him, which lasts for twenty-four hours;
[Legendary Spell Deflection] can resist any directional spell from level 0 to level 9 (excluding area magic), and reflect it to the enemy spellcaster. It will always exist as long as it is not dispersed or lifted;
[Eternal Freedom] can make the subject immune to entanglement, control, imprisonment, paralysis, petrification, hypnosis, deceleration, shock, time stop and other effects, and the duration is also permanent;
[Impermanent Step] permanently maintains oneself in an accelerated state. Both the movement speed and the nerve reflex speed are doubled. The spell that originally took six seconds to release only takes three seconds with the blessing of this legendary magic.
, even the frequency of swinging the sword will be doubled;
[Advanced Spell Resistance], additionally increases the target's spell resistance by 35 points, cannot be superimposed by repeated spell casting, and lasts for 20 hours;
[Steep Turn Technique], protects against five long-range attacks such as crossbows and firearms. It is mainly used to resist the damage caused by magic arrows and projectiles with huge lethality such as legendary magic archers. It can touch itself when the attack
Choose whether to rebound in one moment, lasting twelve hours;
[Time Insurance] is similar to the accidental spell of the legendary magic version. When the set conditions are triggered, the caster will enter a state similar to the nine-ring magic time stop, which lasts for six seconds. When the spell is not triggered,
Occupies one legendary spell slot every day.
In other words, Zuo Si always keeps seven legendary spells in effect on his body.
This is also how most legendary mages with a high enough level use legendary magic.
However, if he suddenly decides to transfer his consciousness and soul to other clones, then all these blessed legendary magics will be scrapped and he will have to start over.
The legendary spells are so complex and troublesome, so of course there is no need to elaborate on the ritual of enthroning the gods.
In particular, pouring divinity into the soul, and then repeatedly impacting it with divine power to sublimate it in extreme pain, the principle is basically the same as cutting wood with a rope, or piercing a rock with a drop of water, and it takes a long time.
Therefore, Zuo Si was not in a hurry at all. He neither destroyed the magic circle immediately nor tried to launch an attack. Instead, he established a connection with the speechless Velshalon through spiritual magic.
The next second...
The insidious and cunning red-robed mage asked sternly: "How on earth did you find this place? I have obviously blessed a large number of spells that shield detection and tracking!"
"Of course it's because of it."
As he said that, Zuo Sichong hooked his fingers in the dark tunnel behind him.
In the blink of an eye, the Chaos Dog Demon Kozif ran out from behind the stone, staring at Vesalun in the center of the circle with two eyes emitting red light. Saliva full of acidic energy continued to flow from the corners of his mouth and teeth.
To be continued...
