Main God Creation Rules

……

As time passed and more and more methods proved meaningless, a sorcerer who could not accept this fate did something that could be described as insane, and Antonio recorded that moment.

The Holy Spirit Wizard first split his own soul—this caused him to lose all memories of being a wizard.

Then he scattered his spirit—which transformed him from a holy spirit capable of destroying stars into a penniless, ordinary human being.

Finally, he abandoned himself in a world where there was no "mana".

Without a doubt, this is absolutely not the "solution" that wizards are seeking. Even if they could gain freedom in this way, how could they survive in this dangerous world after losing all their powers?

What truly drove them to despair was that even though the wizard had given up everything he could, he was still being watched by the "Fragments." When the Holy Spirits threw a hostile "Fragment" civilization individual in front of him, he rushed forward without hesitation and was killed.

At that moment, what remained in Antonio's mind was the agonizing scream of someone on the verge of mental collapse.

“It is taking back tenfold or a hundredfold what it has given us.”

……

As the war continued, the once mighty and glorious wizard civilization was almost completely destroyed in the frenzied war of attrition. The top-level Holy Spirit Wizards were reduced to less than one in ten, partly due to the terrifying casualty rate and partly due to the fear of being restricted by the "contract" and thus unable to continue their advancement.

In this situation, the wizards suffered a crushing defeat.

The planets they conquered were destroyed, the races they enslaved were slaughtered, the civilizations they controlled were crushed... In the end, it was the wizards themselves who suffered this fate.

It cannot be said that the wizards were not powerful. In two hundred years, they destroyed more than ten major races in the "Fragment" civilization—races that could leave symbols within the mark—as well as more than thirty minor races. This was on the premise that the wizards spent most of their energy researching how to break the "contract".

Rather than saying the wizards lost to their enemies, it's more accurate to say they lost to themselves.

Having reached this point, the wizards may have considered destroying everything, including the "shards" that had driven them to their doom, in this "mutual destruction" manner.

Ironically, the very next day, the hostile "Fragment" civilization suffered a crushing defeat when another powerful civilization attacked their star system, targeting the world suspected to be the main body of the "Fragment".

Several days later, the wizards learned that the attackers were from another civilization that had been bound by a "fragment" deal.

For the "Fragments," the wizard civilization is not an indispensable entity, but merely a "pawn" used to attract attention or to be consumed in number.

Realizing this, Antonio felt no frustration. He gathered the remaining wizards in his Nine-Ring Wizard Tower, personally killed his disciple who had become a seventh-level Holy Spirit, and used his power to lead them to a completely unfamiliar dimension, escaping that battlefield forever... This is the origin of the "Wizard World" we know today.

But is this really safe?

Unable to determine the truth, Antonio usurped the planet's consciousness, escaping the gaze of the "Fragment" in exchange for a long slumber, while simultaneously leading the nascent "Wizard Civilization" down the same path.

Plunder is for self-preservation, aggression is for defense. It painstakingly maintains a facade of strength, using this method to obtain information from the surrounding world, ensuring that it can react and move away again the moment it discovers traces of the "fragments"... It must be said that this level nine holy spirit has reached its limit, single-handedly dragging the entire nearly extinct wizard civilization to survive for a full 20,000 years, until Lin Yi arrived.

The question is: Did he really succeed?

Did he really lead the remaining wizards away from the gaze of the "Fragments," and triumphantly allow the wizarding civilization to continue undisturbed in this completely unfamiliar world?

The answer was already clear the moment the existence of the "retrieval mechanism" was discovered.

Just as this Holy Spirit Wizard left behind his final realization before his demise, the war is not over, and the wizard has never left.

Wizard Civilization: Chapter 825 Wizard Civilization (Part 2)

Six months later, when he set foot on this land again, the huge contrast almost made Zhang Longshao unable to react.

"Is this...the West Coast?"

"To be precise, it's the Western Continent."

The new adjutant handed the satellite images to the recently recovered "Teigu User" and explained, "In the six months you've been gone, the changes in this world have far exceeded your imagination."

Looking at the satellite image of the western coast continent, which was almost three times the size of the original, Zhang Longshao still had a hint of disbelief in his eyes. If he didn't know that such a thing could not be faked, he would have suspected that it was a prank.

They had only been away for half a year, returning to Earth to heal their injuries and adapt to the Teigu "Prometheus" for training. Why was such a big change happening here?

Generally speaking, aren't these changes in plate tectonics measured in hundreds of millions of years?

Moreover, judging from the words of the newly appointed adjutant, this change doesn't seem to have stopped yet...

"In the first three months, there were frequent earthquakes, volcanoes, and storms. Two-thirds of the west coast was submerged underwater, and the seawater was mixed with a large amount of neurotoxins. However, the situation was barely resolved after the Earth Alliance paid a 'heavy' price."

Although it was only a "considerable" amount, as a former commander who was quite knowledgeable within the expeditionary force, Zhang Longshao was still able to roughly deduce the terrifying price the Earth Alliance had paid for this from the various abnormal phenomena on Earth over the past six months.

However, if the result of the cost is a west coast three times the size, then it will definitely not be a loss.

The adjutant continued: "In the past month, secondary disasters have occurred very rarely. The Earth Alliance has decided to rebuild the city on the west coast, and not on the emergency military scale of the past, but on a 'grand plan' that is calculated over a century."

"A grand plan... Could it be that those wizards have really disappeared?"

The adjutant shook his head: "I don't know. Maybe they left this world, maybe they all died, or maybe they're hiding somewhere. After all, this planet is so big that even the seabed can harbor many mermaids. If those wizards really wanted to hide, we might not be able to find them."

Before the anxious-looking former commander could speak, the adjutant, already knowing what he wanted to say, added, "Even if those wizards continue to attack us, it's no use."

"What do you mean?"

“Mana, that ‘universal substance’ that could be manipulated by wizards, has disappeared.”

This is one of the main reasons why Earth civilization was willing to return to this planet after witnessing the Holy Spirit's terrifying ability to destroy stars. Otherwise, no matter how great the benefits were, only a fool would continue to reach out when there was a nuclear bomb hanging over their head that could explode at any moment.

“It’s not just the wizards; the sea creatures are also willing to live in peace with us. After all, we are humans, not wizards, and we can’t mine the resources deep in the seabed ourselves. Cooperating with them is the best way.”

Recalling the warships and soldiers that sank on the sea six months ago, the former commander fell silent for a moment, but it was best to nod.

There are never eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

When self-interest outweighs the motivation brought by hatred, then the so-called "revenge" is just a joke. Not to mention, with the "expeditionary force" suffering heavy losses, is it even possible to fight another East China Sea campaign? In this case, peaceful coexistence is the best choice.

The adjutant, oblivious to the former commander's unusual behavior, continued, "Speaking of which, this is all thanks to that 'Main God Space.' If it hadn't activated the star-mass weapon on this planet before, we'd probably still be helpless against a world-destroying wizard."

"Star-level quality weapons?"

"Yes, look at this—"

Pointing to the satellite map in Zhang Longshao's hand, with the adjutant's reminder, he saw four mountain ranges sandwiched between the "rift valleys"—one end connecting to the land, and the other end extending into the sea. Including this west coast, whose area had been enlarged three times after the sea receded, these four mountain ranges cut off the area in half. This was why he hadn't recognized the west coast where he had stayed for more than two years at first glance.

"This is the remnant of the star-quality weapon that was activated by the 'Main God Space'. It not only solved the threat of the Holy Spirit Wizard, but also made those sea creatures communicate with us in a peace-seeking manner... If it weren't for this weapon, even if we could really coexist peacefully with those races living tens of thousands of meters deep in the sea, we probably wouldn't have been able to get any equal conditions."

Nodding as if he understood, Zhang Longshao felt that the shapes of these four "mountains" were somewhat familiar, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination...

As he pondered, he inadvertently noticed the hesitant expression on the face of the new adjutant beside him.

"Is there anything?"

"No... Commander Zhang, you really became a Teigu user?"

"I'm no longer the commander."

Recalling the scene of falling from the sky half a year ago, Zhang Longshao still felt a faint sense of unease: "'Prometheus' was originally built using the metal used to manufacture Imperial Arms in District 1. At that time, I was just resonating with a part of 'Prometheus' and waiting for its recognition."

Touching the armor on his body, Zhang Longshao, who had been promoted from "Commander" to "Teigu User," smiled: "Thanks to it, I can continue to stand here and contribute to the progress of humanity."

……

"Have the ladies of 'Griffin' and 'Azure' not returned?"

"It's a pity. I also wanted to see those Valkyries, but they haven't appeared for about half a year, as have those two 'messengers'."

Unable to tell whether he was disappointed or relieved, just as Zhang Longshao was about to change the subject, the new adjutant suddenly asked, "Speaking of which, there's a record of one of the 'envoys' in the classified files, isn't there?"

Zhang Longshao was taken aback, then nodded subconsciously.

Among the very few people who knew about the situation when the portal was established in the previous world, Zhang Longshao was one of the most knowledgeable, after all, he had been tasked with communicating with that "messenger" half a year ago.

But why bring this up now?

"Commander Zhang, could you tell me his name?"

"I already said I'm not the commander."

He shook his head and laughed. If it were decades ago, when the portal was established, this name might not even be allowed to be spoken. But now, the name itself is not a problem.

Thinking of this, the former commander spoke directly: "His name is Lin—"

"lin?"

"Lin...wait, doesn't it seem like 'yi er ling san 2 ⊙ qi si ba jun' isn't lin?"

Gazing at the bewildered expression on the face of the human before me—this feeling wasn't just reflected in his facial features, but also in his very soul.

This is not forgetting, but recycling, only it is "intercepted" in the last step of recycling.

Leaving the increasingly bewildered humans behind, the otherworldly evil god departed with a smile: "We now know your name."

P.S.: Third update. Several foreshadowing elements resolved. New volume "Marvel Universe" tomorrow.

Marvel Universe: Chapter 826 The Legend of Kunlun Town

[...Affected by the disappearance of Tony Stark, chairman of Stark Industries, the US stock market has fallen sharply. Investors are advised to exercise caution when purchasing. Next news item...]

The location is in an Asian country across the Pacific Ocean, far from the continental United States where the aforementioned incident occurred.

Unlike the United States, where people live in dire straits, although living on such a planet means that a peaceful life is impossible, at least there are no national crises every few days, human crises every ten days, planetary crises every few dozen days—or even crises that could destroy the entire universe.

Overall, this ancient country with a history of five thousand years is still operating along a relatively normal trajectory. The reason I say "relatively normal" rather than "normal" is...

[Wan Zhongxia is currently on a speaking tour along the coast, advocating for unity and concerted efforts...]

[Renowned nuclear physicist Chen Lu discovers the possibility of manipulating radiation using the physical spectrum...]

The once-a-decade Kunlun Town Legend attracts a large number of tourists; relevant departments are making preparations...

……

Fortunately, despite the various bizarre and chaotic circumstances, the internet, a product that is "beneficial to the country and its people," did not disappear from this parallel world's Earth. Without attracting the attention of certain beings, Lin Yi found the relevant information directly on the internet.

How should I put it... if I had to describe it, it would be like forcibly piecing together multiple different worldviews.

Otherwise, it's unlikely that we would have a situation where traditional martial arts routines have a place to survive, while unscientific "scientific" development prospects exist, and even all sorts of nonsense like X-gene mutations have emerged.

It's important to understand that this only applies to the relatively stable domestic situation. If Lin Yi had been transferred to the "deep and turbulent" United States, the level of chaos there would probably be more than ten times greater than it is now.

Rubbing his temples, Lin Yi tried to calm himself down.

First of all, his main purpose in coming to this world is still the "fragment" - that is correct, and he discovered this world through the information left in the memories of "Ninth-level Holy Spirit Antonio", so even if the main body of the "fragment" does not exist in this world, there should still be some information left.

Therefore, he needs to find the "anomalies" in this parallel world, that is, those things that should not appear under the normal development trajectory, but appear because of the appearance of "fragments", such as the portal of Earth civilization in World Zero, and those worlds infected by the virus, which are "things that do not belong to this world".

Lin Yi had initially thought this would be a relatively long process, given that the information left behind by the ninth-level Holy Spirit was incomplete and spanned a period of 20,000 years. Before entering, Lin Yi had prepared himself to spend a considerable amount of time searching for "anomalies" in this world.

However, in reality, Lin Yi is not facing the situation of not being able to find "anomalies," but rather the exact opposite: there are too many "anomalies."

　Even in a relatively "normal" domestic context, there are three "abnormalities" that we can see right now.

Wan Zhongxia, suspected to be one of the mutants, is rumored online to have five times the strength of an ordinary person when the five of them combine, and there are even rumors that he can borrow the life energy of all Chinese people... Ignore these messy rumors for now, the only thing that can be confirmed is that he is not a normal person.

Nuclear physicist Chen Lu—that's fine, but manipulating radiation with physical spectrum… Lin Yi can only say he's gone astray. At least, no matter how you look at the human physics curriculum, it wouldn't go this far, so he's not a normal person either.

Then there's Kunlun Town, which appears in China once every ten years...

To make a name for oneself in this modern age of advanced weaponry and attract so much attention, one cannot simply have an empty reputation. Moreover, the rumor that such an event only occurs once every ten years is also questionable.

"Three?"

Looking at the time Kunlun Town appeared above, Lin Yi turned and left.

----------segmentation----------

Kunlun, also known as Kunlun Mountain, Kunlun Xu, Kunlun Qiu, or Yushan, is a mountain range that stretches from the eastern Pamir Plateau, across Xinjiang and Tibet, and into Qinghai Province. It is about 2500 kilometers long and has an average altitude of 5500 to 6000 meters. The ancient myth of the western Kunlun Mountains has given this mountain range a mysterious connotation.

However, with the development of science and technology, more and more mysteries have been proven to be lies by science, and Kunlun is no exception, until "Kunlun Town" appeared out of thin air.

Legend has it that on the summit of Kunlun Mountain in Tibet, a legendary heaven called Kunlun Town appears on earth every ten years or so. Anyone who can enter it can master true martial arts, but so far only a few people have succeeded.

Ironically, it wasn't the people who painstakingly climbed the mountain who brought Kunlun Town to its peak of fame and made it known to the world, but rather an American pilot.

He crashed into the top of Kunlun Mountain due to a plane crash, and happened to encounter the Kunlun Town which opens once every ten years. After practicing martial arts there, he earned the title of "Iron Fist". On the contrary, those who climbed down below to prove their sincerity got nothing.

Even so, after "Iron Fist" returned to the human world and spread the existence of Kunlun Town, it still attracts a large number of tourists every ten years when Kunlun Town opens. Some come to pay homage to this holy land of martial arts, some come for real martial arts, and some come to study history... It is unknown how many people get what they want, but it is true that it has boosted the local tourism industry.

Taking refuge here, the local government not only did not prohibit tourists from coming, but also promoted it extensively under the name of "Kunlun Town". As a result, when Lin Yi arrived, the entire foot of Kunlun Mountain was already overcrowded.

Just like the "martial arts masters" in the Zero World and the "Jiangnan martial arts world" in the Godkiller World, it seems that no matter which parallel world they are in, as long as they have the same traditional culture, the "martial spirit" in their hearts will not disappear. It is probably only this kind of race that is willing to travel thousands of miles to such a place to seek "opportunities" just because of a foreigner's one-sided words.

In their eyes, the mountaintop, which is usually covered by ice and snow all year round, was now shrouded in a thick layer of gray-white clouds, blocking not only people's gaze but also their hopes.

"Is this true martial arts?"

He gripped the "Autumn Water Sword," a sword sold for ninety-nine yuan a day by the roadside, known for its ability to cut through iron like mud: "How does it compare to the Jiangnan Martial Arts King, the Godslayer?"
