Life on the planet's surface has been extinguished by 95%, leaving only 5% to maintain nature. This 5% still has an owner; it is the rule concept of the 'forest,' and also a species of deities.
The divine species are the very essence of the world's rules and concepts. They are born from the 'divine essence' generated by the planet's great source. Every divine species is a 'true god' from birth, since their essence is the very concept of the rules.
"The planet's source is overloaded and even weakened. The natural environment on the planet's surface has been almost completely destroyed, and even the planet's mantle is severely displaced." Luo Sheng looked at the core of the planet, which was far above the center of ordinary spacetime, a dodecahedron with countless rules that resembled gears.
The all-powerful artifact, the 'Star Cup,' remained quietly there, without leaking a single ounce of energy, yet it maintained the stability of the planet.
Not only that...
Los Saint looked up at the gray-red sky, completely obscured by thick clouds, with streaks of golden light circling the planet like threads.
This is the 'Elf Corridor' of the planetary source. It emits a red light, which is a sign that it is already overloaded. Under normal circumstances, it should be a clear blue.
Black ash, like goose feathers falling continuously, fell from the sky, emitting a dark purple afterglow after the campfire had burned out.
These are the corpses of 'elves' after they have burned to ashes, which would scorch and corrode natural life.
'Spirits' are the energy of this planet, just like elemental forces, but they possess a faint consciousness, as faint as bacteria.
Their burning of natural life after death is a curse upon the one who killed them.
Los Saint's gaze pierced through the planet's atmosphere and looked into the more distant universe. The light of truth in his eyes brightened slightly, and the light from distant stars in the cosmos constantly reached his eyes as he analyzed the age and distance of these stars.
As a high-ranking god-king who holds the 'truth', he can directly analyze the information he wants from starlight, and his eyesight far surpasses the 'astronomical equipment' that humans can create.
Humans in the 21st century can observe the 'observable universe' using astronomical equipment, so he can only see more.
“So young. The entire universe is only a little over a hundred million years old.” Luo Sheng laughed. “You guessed right. The entire universe is only the size of a dwarf galaxy.”
The entire universe of No Game No Life is about 13,000 light-years in diameter and contains more than two billion stars, slightly larger than the Small Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy associated with the Milky Way.
However, unlike the galaxies in the 'observable universe', although there are black holes in this universe, the center of the universe is not a black hole, but the planet where the Star Cup is located.
Moreover, apart from the planet where the Star Cup is located, there is no life in the entire microcosm. In other words, the planet under our feet is the only life-bearing planet in the entire universe, and it is also the first life in the microcosm.
It would take at least several hundred million years for life to emerge in other star systems in the universe.
After examining the microcosm, Los Saint then observed the entire planet's timeline, tracing it back to the very beginning of life on this planet.
The microcosm had just taken shape under the leaked power of the 'Star Cup', and a large number of stars had just been born. Even the stars in this star system at the center of the universe were not yet perfectly spherical, and the planets were still in the molten stage.
As the planet cooled, the first things to appear were not oceans and atmosphere, but the 'Elf Corridor'. In fact, the Elf Corridor had not yet begun to produce 'elves'; it was still in its nascent stage.
Even after the planet cooled down, it remained a cold, dead star.
Around 100 million years ago, the Elf Corridor produced the first "divine essence" that materialized and personified the "concept".
Driven by the unconscious yearning for life throughout the universe, the first life was born.
This is a humanoid life form, born in the form of a young female. She has wandered the planet for tens of thousands of years, not knowing the meaning of her birth, and constantly seeking answers. In order to answer the questions in her heart, she created several square machines, but the machines not only failed to answer her questions, but instead asked her for the 'meaning of the machines' birth'.
Ultimately, after realizing that her birth was meaningless, she pierced through her own soul and fell into a permanent slumber.
After tens of millions of years, life naturally emerged on the planet, evolving from bacteria.
The overall process was similar to that of Earth's primitive era, until 300,000 years ago when 'intelligent' life, humankind, finally emerged through evolution.
Humans began to create civilization and worship everything in nature.
But it was precisely the beginning of humankind's worship of nature that led to the disasters of the next 300,000 years.
Human beliefs and desires have activated the concept of nature, constantly revitalizing its essence and giving rise to various divine beings.
However, the appearance of the divine beings did not favor humanity; instead, they created their own life, and one after another, divinely created species were born.
When the number of species created by the gods increases, planetary resources become scarce, leading to wars. As these wars intensify, they eventually escalate into a war among the divine species.
History entered a vicious cycle: the gods' creations flourished, leading to wars over resources → humanity suffered massive deaths and constant flight → the gods intervened in the great war → the gods and their creations suffered over 90% casualties → humanity recovered its numbers and established civilization → the flourishing of human civilization led to the worship of nature, resulting in the birth of the gods → the gods began creating creations → the gods' creations flourished, leading to wars over resources...
Thirty thousand years ago, the planet's instinctive repulsion and the vicious cycle of continuous destruction began to send the message of the 'Sole Throne of the One God' to the newly born divine species.
The planet instinctively desires a divine being to control the 'Star Cup' at the planet's core and restore everything to its natural state.
"Sigh... The only lesson humanity has learned from history is that it has learned nothing." Los Saint sighed after reading the planet's history.
However, we cannot entirely blame humanity. This world is unique, and a large human population inevitably leads to complex beliefs and desires, which are the source of human spiritual sustenance and creativity.
After all, humans can't fly, so they naturally have the desire to fly and the desire to have enough to eat and a good harvest.
"Let's go check out the Star Cup first." Luo Sheng glanced at the life forms that were still alive on the planet.
There are currently four divine beings in the world. One of them, unwilling to fight, led his creations to hide on the Red Moon.
The remaining three divine races and their creations are the main force: the Forest God and the race he created, the Forest Elves; the Forging God and the race he created, the Goblins; and the War God and the race he created, the Skywings.
All the divine species know that as long as they break through the planet, the Star Cup will appear.
But they didn't do that, because if they did, it wouldn't be a 'game,' but rather the weak overturning the table, and they were unwilling to admit that they were the weak ones.
Of course, there is another important reason. Currently, the only god-like being capable of penetrating a planet is the God of War, but the God of War has no interest in the Star Grail because He is out of it.
He was born with the concept of 'war and the strongest', but he did not understand what 'the strongest' meant. He had never been weak and could not comprehend the meaning of 'the strongest'. He was trapped in a logical dead end.
This vicious cycle is still what the strongest dragon spirit, the Dragon King, left Him before He was killed: 'Never being weak, never being defeated by others, and never being able to understand what it means to be the strongest.'
Then His logic fails. If He obtains the Star Cup and becomes the One God, no one will ever defeat Him, and He will be unable to understand the meaning of His own birth.
He faced the same problem as the first divine being born: the meaning of his birth was the core value pursued by the divine beings.
Although the other two divine beings were far less powerful than Him, they both found the meaning of their birth.
The God of Forging took the creation of the planet as the meaning of his birth, while the God of the Forest took the incarnation of the planet's nature as the meaning of his birth.
However, since the God of War did not go to retrieve the Star Cup, and they were unable to defeat the God of War or penetrate the planet, they still held onto the idea of obtaining the Star Cup if possible.
It is precisely because of this contradictory state that the war has continued for tens of thousands of years without end.
"There are only about 200,000 humans left on the entire planet. Sigh." Luo Sheng shook his head. At its peak, the human population on this planet exceeded 100 million. Every time the human population exceeded 100 million, a nightmare would descend.
Without thinking too much, Luo Sheng directly crossed the dimensions of time and space to arrive at the core of the planet.
This is a dimensional space that overlaps with the Earth's core, and even gods cannot enter without penetrating the planet.
In the pitch-black dimensional space, there is only one light. At the center of the dimensional space, a 'trophy' with a dodecahedral crystal as its core floats quietly.
Los Saint approached the Star Cup, within reach, but instead of grabbing it, he used 'Truth' to analyze it. In an instant, his vision blurred, as if an old television screen was starting to distort.
I immediately stopped analyzing the image, rubbed my eyes, and my vision returned to normal.
"I can't understand it... I can't understand anything except the gears that are moving on the surface." Far from being disappointed, Luo Sheng was even happier. It was good that he couldn't see it; it meant that it was more powerful than he had imagined.
He slowly reached out and touched the star cup.
sizzle-
Before the fingers even touched the 'Star Cup', they vanished instantly.
“Hmm…” Luo Sheng quickly withdrew his hand, his expression solemn. He looked at his fingers, which had returned to normal, and then looked at the ‘Star Cup’ again.
"Can't we touch foreign or inanimate objects?"
In that instant, the body constructed from 'omnipotent divine power' was directly vaporized.
However, it wasn't that I felt nothing at all. Although it was only for a moment, I clearly felt what kind of power it was.
That was also 'omnipotent divine power', but its quality far surpassed his 'omnipotent divine power'; this was an absolute difference in quality.
His 'omnipotent divine power' is likened to water, which is everywhere. Then the 'omnipotent divine power' of the Star Cup is like molten iron, which can only evaporate when it comes into contact with water.
The quality gap between the various types of versatility is too large.
In addition to 'omnipotent divine power', he also sensed 'source power'. This star cup is 'source itself', just like his own body, it is 'source'.
In terms of 'Root Force', there is a significant gap between his physical body and the Star Cup, but his 'Root Force' potential is superior because the 'Root Force' of his physical body will continue to grow.
"That makes things a little more complicated," Luo Sheng sighed.
Since we can't take the 'Star Cup' directly, we can only use a 'Divine Essence' to make this wisp of divine thought half a 'local'.
Luo Sheng took one last, reluctant look at the Star Cup before disappearing from the spot.
When it reappeared, it was already in the 'Elf Corridor'.
The Elf Corridor is like a surging sea of energy, channeling the great source of energy to the entire planet.
This wisp of divine consciousness of Luo Sheng is itself a fusion of 'omnipotent divine power' and rules, and can freely travel to any place below him.
The 'divine essence' in the Elf Corridor is also very rare, and each 'divine essence' takes at least a million years to be born.
The 'essence' is the core that 'personifies' and 'embodies' the rules, similar to the 'divine core', but more primal.
Luo Sheng casually picked up a 'divine essence'. The divine essence itself was in a superposition state of high-dimensional spacetime, a superposition state of 'energy', 'spacetime', and 'dimension'. This allowed the rules to directly superimpose on all life after they were materialized.
The divine thought, carrying 'omnipotent divine power' and 'rules', was completely integrated into the 'divine essence'.
Soon, Los Santos materialized again, and apart from the core, this materialized body was already a part of this world.
"Tsk...it's a bit choppy now." Luo Sheng raised his hand and rubbed his forehead with his fingers.
The integration of divine thoughts with elements from another worldview caused a slight disruption in the connection of consciousness.
Although it is a divine thought, the consciousness is unique. This feeling is like a 5G network being impurities and becoming a 4G network.
The birth of the new 'divine species' did not cause any fluctuations that spread throughout the entire planet.
The birth of a divine species will also be known to other divine species, simply because the rules and concepts of the world are intertwined. If one thread moves, the others will follow. Since its rules are inherent, there is naturally no such problem.
"That's not enough. We also need to add the emotions, beliefs, and desires of many lives to make the aura more like that of a primordial deity." Luo Sheng clenched his fist. The aura was still too mixed. He couldn't guarantee that he could get the Star Cup this way.
"Since I'm already here, I want the Star Cup, the Divine Species, the Divine Creation Species, or even this microcosm."
After obtaining the Star Grail, things became much easier in the Type-Moon world. The Star Grail is essentially a mobile 'Root,' and its allure is enough to make Alaya and Gaia kneel and beg for mercy.
It's not impossible that Alaya and Gaia would willingly sell themselves to bring over the entire 'pan-human history' of Type-Moon.
Los Saint stepped out of the 'Elven Corridor', looked in the direction of the humans, and his figure merged into the space.
At this time, the human leader Riku had already met Shubi and was already working on a plan to end the war and save the planet and all races.
Although Rick has not yet actually completed the 'saving the world' and become the 'savior', in his world he has already achieved the great feat of reaching the sixth rank and has the potential to ascend to the throne of true god.
If one succeeds in saving the world and becomes the de facto 'savior,' their potential will reach the throne of God.
……
In the forest, now an abandoned ruin filled with dead and withered trees, the 'spirits' of the dead elves have covered the ground in a thick layer.
"Ugh...ahhh..." A hoarse scream that exceeded the limit came out here, because he didn't want the sound to attract unpredictable things, so he forced himself to lower his voice.
