Spellcasting Gods

As the voices of the conversation grew fainter and the scattered points of light in the air dimmed, the remaining heat of these powerful souls was finally exhausted, turning into black shadows that merged into the surrounding darkness.

"No! No! No! How could we have failed! Why did we fail? That ancient record clearly didn't say that!"

Watching his strongest trump card fail, the leader of the Shadow Guard displayed boundless fear and bewilderment.

He didn't understand why the legendary spear, which pierced the heart of the god, failed to kill him.

"What, do you think it's strange that I survived? If you knew that the reason I was defeated and sealed by this spear last time was not because their plan and methods were so clever, but because I voluntarily allowed myself to be sealed, you wouldn't have this reaction."

The young man pursed his lips, his eyes sparkling with a light as bright as stars.

Undoubtedly, his divine memories are rapidly returning, and his control over the vast energy within his body is becoming increasingly precise and efficient.

"Voluntary?!" The speaker, with a solemn expression, keenly grasped a key word.

"That's right! Because, as this guy mentioned, I am a special individual without a personality, and I undergo uncontrollable periodic changes every now and then."

Therefore, there is absolutely no record of my specific appearance or conduct in your history.

It's not that they don't want to record it, but that they simply have no way to record it.

In my most merciful moments, I grant thousands of believers near-eternal life, while in my most cruel moments, I ruthlessly strip away everything, even the life of a newborn baby.

For this reason, my most faithful followers unanimously believe that I am no longer fit to be their supreme spiritual faith, as this would lead to uncertainty about the future of the entire race.

Perfect timing! I'm also tired of this constant feeling of losing parts of my memories, so I'll just seal them away for now, so I can pass this long and tedious time.

As God spoke these words, His gaze remained fixed on the two boys who were close at hand, as if they were the most valuable treasures in this material universe.

"You mean, you've been waiting for the two of us?" Luke's heart pounded uncontrollably.

"What do you think? Haven't you felt that attraction and call from the deepest part of your soul?" The young man reached out a finger and gently touched the other's forehead.

next second...

Luke's mind was suddenly flooded with countless memories and knowledge, as well as a complex emotion he couldn't quite describe.

In just a minute or two, his body grew to be almost the same size as the young man's. He opened his eyes and murmured meaningfully, "So that's how it is... It was all planned in advance! Whether it's you, me, or our brother, we are all part of this grand plan. We are the vessels of will and personality, while you are the vessel of power and rules."

“Yes! Not only us, but this planet and the Darrents created by it are all part of the grand resurrection plan. Now, we have gathered several necessary elements, and it is time to reunite and resurrect our most powerful selves.”

The words had barely left his mouth!

The young man began to unleash his almost limitless power without restraint!

In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire planet.

There is no light!

It's not hot!

All that remained was endless darkness!

Even the spellcasters most sensitive to energy lost their pride and power at this moment, and all the puppets that relied on magic to operate fell into a static standby state.

Just as all the Darrents were speechless with shock at the apocalyptic scene before them, the boy, who had been silent for a long time, finally smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then let's go. I'm willing to give up everything I have, whether it's my thoughts, personality, memories, or anything else. But I have only one request, and that is to remain conscious until I'm completely gone."

"As you wish..."

Without hesitation, the youth pierced the boy's brain and heart, absorbing something abstract into his body, leaving only a blank and fragile soul floating in mid-air.

However, anyone who has studied the soul will realize that this is not a real soul at all, but merely a virtual vessel used to carry past memories.

Chapter 1405 Return from Death

No vision!

No sense of touch!

I have no sense of smell!

No hearing!

Even the ever-present, active magical energy that usually surrounds him is now completely cut off from him.

As the Speaker who held supreme power over the entire Darent civilization, this was the first time he had experienced weakness and helplessness, along with a deep-seated despair.

Given his current state, he can't even be sure if he's still alive, let alone do anything or choose to end this mental anguish and torment.

After all, the reason why a life can come to the awareness of "being alive" is invariably due to the feedback generated from the surrounding environment.

But now, this feedback has been completely cut off.

If the Darents' mental strength weren't far superior to that of other races, they probably would have gone completely insane long ago, instead of staying obediently in place, hoping that this nightmarish reality would end soon.

Maybe a few minutes...

Maybe a few tens of minutes...

Perhaps it will take years, or even decades...

In short, as clear breathing began to be heard, the blackness that had enveloped the entire planet's surface finally faded away.

When everyone's vision returned to normal, they were surprised to find that the two boys had completely disappeared, leaving only a young man with a relaxed and cheerful smile on his face.

He stretched lazily, then stared at his hands and muttered to himself, "Successfully resurrected? No! That's not right! I'm still incomplete. I'm missing the most important thing: my soul, which has been strengthened time and time again. And my soul is hidden in the deepest part of this planet."

When the last word came out!

Suddenly, a huge crack appeared in the once peaceful earth.

Interestingly, what emerged from it was not some scorching magma or anything like that, but rather a colorless and transparent sea of ​​soul energy.

"This...this is!!!!"

One of the surviving members of parliament, who hadn't gone insane, was dumbfounded and couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Not only him, but almost every Darrent was speechless with surprise.

Given the level of development of the Darrent magical civilization, in their inherent understanding, the planet beneath their feet no longer holds any secrets.

But now, the harsh reality has proven them wrong, and very wrong indeed.

They have no need to plunder resources from other worlds. As long as they can find this Sea of ​​Soul Energy sooner, it will be equivalent to obtaining an inexhaustible source of energy.

It's like a bully who has thousands of gold and silver treasures hidden in his cellar but knows nothing about them and has to resort to robbery to make a living.

What shocked the Darents even more was that the vast sea of ​​souls was completely cleaned up by the young man in front of them in less than ten minutes.

At the same time, after losing its most important internal core, the plants on the planet's surface began to wither and die in large numbers, and the Earth's crust subsequently lost its supporting structure, beginning to be squeezed, deformed, crushed, and collapsed at a visible speed...

A vibrant planet thus unexpectedly ended its long life.

The Darrents who lived there were naturally not spared either, becoming an insignificant speck of dust in the vast universe.

"My...our home planet! Our civilization! Just like that, it vanished?" The Speaker's voice trembled slightly as he stood in the dark universe.

Because he was still under the protection of some unknown force field, he had not yet been completely exposed to the vacuum, nor had he experienced the intense radiation of the universe.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I accidentally destroyed your planet. Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Zhang Cheng, a ruler who has just returned from the spiritual universe. Perhaps your level of civilization cannot understand the meaning of the word 'ruler,' but it is enough for you to know that I am one of the few advanced life forms standing at the very pinnacle of the entire material universe." The young man looked up and smiled faintly as he assessed his physical condition.

However, judging from his facial expression, he felt no remorse whatsoever for destroying the Darrent homeworld.

An apology is less an expression of emotion and more a long-standing habit.

It's like accidentally stepping on an insect; some people will curse and complain about their bad luck, while others will say sorry.

In essence, there is no difference between the two behaviors, but for some reason, the former is always regarded as lacking in quality and upbringing, while the latter is often forgiven.

"What exactly are you? Why did you create us? And then you destroyed us with your own hands?" The Speaker was clearly trying to find out the truth before he died.

Although he had already guessed some things from the previous conversation, he still needed to confirm them.

After all, things have come to this point, and the decline and even demise of the Darrent civilization has become an inevitable and unchangeable outcome. In addition, the power displayed by the other party has far exceeded the limits of what the council can handle.

Rather than continue struggling, it's better to simply accept our fate, at least that way we can preserve the expeditionary forces stationed in other worlds.

Perhaps one day in the future, the expeditionary force will rise again and continue the flame of the Darrent civilization.

"Hehe, you asked a stupid question. But I'm in a pretty good mood today, so I'll just give you an answer." As he spoke, Zhang Cheng pulled a small bottle that shimmered with azure light from his pocket as if by magic. "Remember that little gadget you stole? It's the origin of everything."

"It's that mysterious liquid that can freeze everything, even time and space!" The Speaker seemed to recognize what was in the bottle, and his eyes began to light up.

Zhang Cheng nodded slightly: "That's right! That's it. Do you know that the universe we are in right now is actually a matter-dominated universe?"

Did you know that beyond the material universe, there exists a spiritual world composed entirely of energy?

Do not!

You know nothing!

The Darrent civilization may be considered a minor overlord in the surrounding area, but in the face of a truly advanced civilization, you are not even a strong ant.

Furthermore, these mysterious liquids act as a barrier between the two worlds.

In order to uncover its secrets, to transcend everything, and to stand at the end of the path of life's evolution, I made a bold attempt, an incredibly crazy decision.

Believe me, if it weren't for good luck, I might never have been able to be resurrected, let alone stand here..."

Chapter 1406 Gambling

How difficult is it to separate one’s personality, power, soul, knowledge and thoughts one by one, let them exist in relatively independent forms, and then reassemble them into a whole?

The answer is that the success rate will never exceed one in a million!

Independence means generating many desires, and desires can lead to all sorts of uncertainties.

Almost no life form with independent thought and consciousness would be willing to give up its individuality and become part of some great, higher life form.

Therefore, Zhang Cheng's decision was absolutely crazy and full of gambling.

Even he himself was unsure whether these stripped-off parts could reassemble once they passed through the isolation layer and entered the material universe.

If not, then will these dispersed parts still be oneself?

Interestingly, the part of the body that was separated from the body and possessed power was the first to awaken. In order to attract the other parts, it created a race on the planet beneath its feet, a race of Darents who were keen on expanding and plundering resources across spatial distances.

It was this race that helped him find the carriers of two personalities and thoughts, and together with the soul stored in the core of the planet, a complete super life with infinite power was once again integrated into one.

And compared to when he left, he still retains the new power he gained in the spiritual world...

Under the watchful eyes of the remaining high-ranking members of the Darent civilization, Zhang Cheng raised his hand and gently fiddled with something in the vacuum.

As ten nimble fingers traced lines, a strange pattern suddenly appeared out of thin air.
