Start in Terra, immortal
Chapter 54 A Feast for the Senses
Breaking through layers of cosmic barriers, Rosso constantly travels between universes that have been decimated by Ultron.
His intuition, like invisible tentacles, precisely probed the coordinates of every lifeless world. Whenever he confirmed that a universe had completely lost its vitality, he would leave a slowly rotating golden vortex in its core area, and then move on to the next target without stopping.
After he left, these vortices began to spin faster, gradually evolving into a gravitational object similar to a black hole, but even more peculiar. Their very existence became the "terminator" of the universe.
Whether it's interstellar dust formed from planetary debris, the scorching light and radiation emitted by a dying star, or even a black hole that was originally formed in the universe and originally devoured everything, once it touches the invisible "event horizon" of the vortex, it will be instantly decomposed and transformed into the purest and most primordial energy flow, and silently swallowed by the vortex.
From a macroscopic perspective of the multiverse, each universe "marked" by Rosso is like a balloon with a giant syringe inserted into it.
They are collapsing and drying up at an illogical speed, with matter and spacetime structure being frantically extracted, ultimately returning to an unobservable singularity, erasing them from the picture of the multiverse without leaving a trace.
Meanwhile, within the spirit world, a cataclysmic upheaval is taking place.
A vast amount of refined and purified primordial energy from the Marvel Universe flows into the spirit world like an inexhaustible spring.
Nourished and reshaped by this immense power, the spirit world began to undergo a fundamental leap, evolving from a relatively independent and self-consistent spiritual dimension into a complete and self-sufficient true universe.
"Look at the sky! Are those... those stars? Just like the stars described in the ancient legends of the Demon Realm!" The inhabitants of the Spirit Realm all looked up and exclaimed in disbelief.
In the night sky, an unprecedented sight is taking shape: stars are materializing from the void, dotting the deep celestial canvas; a "sun" radiating warm light rises in the "daytime," bringing light and warmth.
Day and night began to alternate regularly, and the cycle of seasons began to emerge, as if the whole world had been infused with a brand new rhythm of life.
Correspondingly, as important pillars of the spirit world, the "moon" formed from the soul origins of Kalon and Zhao Xin has also grown unimaginably as the spirit world's universe has expanded as a whole.
This growth is a synchronous expansion at the dimensional level. Ordinary souls living within it cannot directly perceive the changes visually, but for Kalon and Zhao Xin themselves, the feedback effect brought about by the massive increase in their soul origin is the most direct and significant.
Their spiritual perception has undergone a qualitative leap: the previously vague rules and patterns are now clearly discernible, and they can even be analyzed and deduced from multiple dimensions and perspectives.
Previously imperceptible hidden presences or subtle fluctuations can now be easily sensed, and even their essence can be deeply "scanned" without the other party's awareness...
Gradually, more and more inhabitants of the spirit world, especially those who study magic, began to notice subtle changes in their interaction with the environment.
They found that their understanding of the principles of magic seemed to be smoother than ever before, and the process of casting spells became more and more effortless, with almost no hindrance in the connection between their thoughts and energy.
However, in stark contrast, the actual effects of their magic are rapidly diminishing.
The fiery storms that once burned down an entire forest now only leave charred marks on tree trunks; the deadly techniques that could once kill powerful monsters with a single blow are now powerless even to break through their outer defenses.
This unusual phenomenon caused great confusion and unease among the magicians in the spirit world.
After a period of observation, testing, and heated discussion, some astute scholars finally glimpsed the clues.
One day, the most prestigious magic scholars in the spirit world gathered almost all the magicians for an unprecedented meeting, seemingly to announce a major discovery.
"Fellow countrymen!" The leading elder scholar's voice boomed, silencing the whispers in the room. "I believe you have all personally experienced that our magic is undergoing an unprecedented 'disabling.' After repeated verification and deduction, we have finally found the root cause of all this—"
He paused deliberately, drawing everyone's attention to the sky, his finger pointing firmly at the dazzling starry sky.
"It is this starry sky and the cycle of day and night that make it possible."
These words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake; the magicians were instantly thrown into uproar, and waves of surprise, confusion, and debate erupted simultaneously from every corner.
The older scholar pressed his hands down to signal everyone to be quiet, and continued, "At first, we were also confused, so I specifically consulted Lord Charon. He told us that 'the spirit world is undergoing a fundamental upheaval,' and that we shouldn't panic excessively. But..."
The noise at the scene gradually subsided, and everyone held their breath, waiting for him to continue.
"However, this is precisely a wake-up call for us! We have been living in comfort under the protection of the spirit world for too long, so long that we have almost forgotten how we got here, so long that we have forgotten how fragile we once were—the aftershocks of a clash between the strong were enough to reduce us to ashes."
His tone became serious and heavy: "Now, the 'disability' of magic is like a bucket of cold water, waking us from our comfortable dream."
We are still weak. The spirit world, though wonderful, is by no means a safe haven where we can rest easy and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. We must rediscover ourselves and this world that is undergoing transformation!
Having said that, he said no more, but instead raised his hand and began to recite the most basic fireball spell.
"boom!"
A seemingly ordinary red fireball shot out and accurately struck the thick wooden stake used for testing next to it.
To the astonishment of all the onlookers, this basic spell, which everyone knew, unleashed a power far exceeding their expectations the moment it touched the wooden stake.
The thick wooden stakes were instantly reduced to ashes in the blazing flames, and the aftershocks of the explosion even scorched a deep, blackened crater in the ground.
This simple yet powerful demonstration silently tells us one thing: magic itself has not become weaker, but the world has become "stronger".
The rules of the spirit world are evolving, and its ability to contain and bind energy far surpasses that of the past. To continue to wield power in this nascent universe, they must abandon old perceptions and embark on a new path of exploration and cultivation.
