Chapter 178 Literature Sculpture and Painting! Distorted Art Realm
Tower of Knowledge, Starry Library.
When Xiao En walked into this legendary library, even the well-informed man couldn't help but be stunned, because the dome of the library was dotted with countless stars. A set of brilliant gems sparkles under the dark curtain of night, making people feel like they are under the starry sky. The swirling nebulae are slowly rotating. This is the ability of the illusion field. When you come here, you feel like you are in another space. , this is an additional space expanded by magic. The space inside is larger than what is seen from the outside.
“Mystery Realm detected.”
“Demiplane detected—an extradimensional sphere.”
A heavy diamond golem slowly walked up to Xiao En. It was not used for other golems. It had a crystal structure that emitted arcane light. It looked like the administrator of this library. It said respectfully. : "Lord Xiao En."
"Please follow me."
"The great sages have approved your application. You can read all the secret scrolls here at will."< br>
——Arcane Guard [Legendary Golem] [Large Structure] (Challenge Level 20)? !
Xiao En nodded slightly and said: "Yes."
It seems that the Tower of Knowledge has accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. This is different from Ms. Hecate’s labyrinth library. This is a real library, and Ms. Hecate is the embodied projection of the Kingdom of God. The books in the Labyrinth Library are all manifestations of the mysterious knowledge she possesses.
——Knowledge is power.
Xiao En saw the rune inscriptions on the dome, which were left by the sages before the Dark Age. There may be strangers in them.
The whisper of Sealed Artifact No. 1 sounded: "The master once helped build a different-dimensional sphere."
"It was rebuilt from a temple."
Xiao En was startled when he heard the words, and the next second his spiritual vision turned on. His vision penetrated the blessing of the illusion system and saw the outline of a building similar to a mosque. What remained unchanged was the countless gems inlaid on it, but these gems were all Transformed into materials in the Mysterious Realm, they are linked to the energy channels of the different-dimensional sphere.
The Ring of the Witch King was slightly restless, Xiao En's mind moved, and he noticed the trembling of the Pot of Greed.
The Pot of Greed has always been very honest. Except when Xiao En casts a wish spell to strengthen his inner attributes, it tried to bewitch himself. At other times, the Pot of Greed was as if it did not exist. But after Xiao En came here, the Pot of Greed became very restless, and the wind elemental demigod inside seemed to be trying to break free of the seal.
"What's going on?" Xiao En's will touched the pot of greed.
The Pot of Greed: "..."
After a long time, its whisper sounded: "This was once a temple dedicated to me."
Temple?
Xiao En's brows were slightly raised, as if he didn't believe it, and he sent a mental message: "What evidence is there?"
The Pot of Greed was silent for a moment, and responded: "You walk along the Starry Corridor Go to the third floor, where there is a crystal pillar of the elemental plane."
"You can touch it with my true name mark."
After hearing this, Xiao En casually walked around the first floor, and then slowly walked to the third floor like a tour. Sure enough, he saw a heavy crystal pillar. It was not something from the material plane, but a crystal from the inner plane. , after the real name mark appeared on Xiao En's palm and he touched it, a line of ancient elemental text soon appeared.
——Hussam bin Yog'in (the great lord of wind elemental gods and monsters).
This is really a temple dedicated to the existence of the inner element's 'divine-like power'.
No wonder it looks a bit like a mosque.
The Kettle of Greed's voice was filled with anger: "They sealed my temple into the dimensional ball."
Xiao En said expressionlessly: "Don't be angry. You have been sealed into the Pot of Greed."
The Pot of Greed: "..."
Xiao En felt it This wind elemental lord roared in anger, but his incompetent rage was imprisoned in the pot of greed. The sacred oath left by Master Xu is extremely strong and cannot be shaken.
The Pot of Greed: "Do you want the treasure I left behind?"
"They should not be able to decipher the mystery of this temple. Above the starry sky, there is the treasure I left behind back then?" The Sky Stone left in the material plane.”
Xiao En paused for a moment and said calmly: "How do I know what you said is true?"
The Pot of Greed: "..."
"These mortals don't understand at all. How to use the power of the Sky Stone, as long as you take it down, you can build a floating city at any time."
Xiao En was unmoved and casually opened a secret scroll and read the magic. Memorize the knowledge quickly.
Time passes quietly.
I don’t know how long it took, after the incompetent rage of the Pot of Greed calmed down, Xiao En had memorized a large bookshelf, and he suddenly sent a mental message: "Tell me about the Sky Stone you left behind."
< br>The Pot of Greed: "..."
"Don't you believe me? Human being!"
Xiao En said with an indifferent expression: "Someone has been monitoring here just now, you said Tell me, maybe I'll be interested."
The Pot of Greed: "..."
"You should know everything about the wind elemental plane, right?"
Xiao En walked around the library, picked up a secret scroll inscribed with the spell system, and responded calmly: "I know. "
The Pot of Greed: "There is no land in the wind elemental plane. It is a country shrouded in an atmosphere, just like a completely gaseous planet."
Xiao En said lightly. : "Tell the important point."
Pot of Greed: "..."
"There is no land in the wind element plane, but there are some natural floating islands above the clouds. They are the only land. These floating islands are floating throughout the wind element plane. They are very rare and are often used by powerful people. Occupied by the Elemental Sultan."
"I once defeated an Elemental Sultan, destroyed his territory, and took out the Sky Stone from the broken floating island."
Xiao. En understood instantly.
The Sky Stone is a stable 'anti-gravity' crystal nucleus. In a completely gaseous plane, some very rare treasures of heaven, materials and earth are often born. However, the challenge level of the elemental plane is too high. , it is almost difficult for mortals to get involved in it.
Xiao En said calmly: "You mean it can replace the anti-gravity array?"
Pot of Greed: "More than that. It should be said to be an anti-gravity array that does not consume energy."
"The Sky Stone will cover the [Atmosphere] field."
" As long as it is still in effect, even if there is no energy, the surrounding gravity will be reversed."
"Have you not always wanted to build a floating fortress on this planet?"
"There is no Miser energy core."
"You can't provide that huge energy at all! But it's different if you get the Sky Stone. You can cut off a mountain range, reverse it and rise directly to the sky."
Xiao En pondered for a moment. , was moved, but still said expressionlessly: "You know I am studying [Elemental Fission]."
The Pot of Greed: "So what?"
"You Have you succeeded?"
"How long will you have to waste to succeed? The old ones will not wait for you, any prophecy points to the time when the stars return."
"As long as you get it, you can save a lot of time."
Xiao En said lightly: "It's just a constant anti-gravity field. Without enough energy, it can only float randomly in the sky."
The Pot of Greed: "..."
Xiao En put down the secret scroll in his hand, rubbed his forehead, turned and left the Starry Library. Before leaving, he Looking at the rotating dazzling nebula, I can clearly feel the uneasiness of the Pot of Greed. This is just the appearance of the illusion, and the real core is the different-dimensional magic ball that envelopes it.
Xiao En walked out of the door and returned to his residence. On the way, he suddenly said: "What do you want?"
There was a hint of excitement in the voice of the Pot of Greed: "Let me out!"
Xiao En refused without hesitation: "Impossible."
The Pot of Greed: "I will Return to the elemental plane and never set foot on the material plane again."
Xiao En shook his head and said: "Impossible."
The Pot of Greed roared: "Then you will never do it. I want to get it. No one can open the seal without my power."
Xiao En said calmly: "That's not necessarily the case."
After saying that, Xiao En lit an incense stick. After a brief resonance of the ceremony, he whispered: "Teacher, are you there?"
The Pot of Greed: "..."
"I will help you get it, but you must at least give me a little freedom and let me move freely away from this abominable clay pot."
It panicked.
Xiao En was unmoved. After the resonance of the ceremony was completed, a gentle whisper sounded in his ear: "Yes."
Ms. Hecate responded.
Xiao En said softly: "The Pot of Greed said that there is a Sky Stone hidden in the Starry Library."
"Have the great sages discovered it?"
Ms. Hecate’s voice clearly showed a hint of interest. She pondered for a moment and said, “I’ve never heard of it.”
"Do you know where it is hidden?"
Xiao En has very powerful spiritual vision and amazing intuition. He thought for a while and said: "Maybe it is in the rotating nebula."
Ms. Hecate immediately said: "Don't act rashly."
"Don't easily believe everything the Pot of Greed says."
"My incarnation will be here soon. to.”
Stable. Xiao En calmly stopped the ceremony, no longer paying attention to the roaring pot of greed in the Ring of the Witch King, and quietly waited for the arrival of Lady Hecate's avatar. After dealing with this unexpected surprise, Xiao En closed his eyes and began to digest the knowledge he remembered today. There is no shortcut to access the [knowledge] field. This is a process of quantitative change leading to qualitative change. Xiao En needs to learn to master everything himself Knowledge that can be accessed and eventually reach a certain critical point.
——Eruditionist [Title] (Knowledge Field): You are already a knowledgeable polymath. You know everything from astronomy to geography. The knowledge you have mastered has allowed you to regain your knowledge. Understand the truth of the world. [Rumors +10, Knowledge (Arcana) +5, Knowledge (Plane) +5, Knowledge (Religion) +5, Knowledge (Mystery) +5. 】
Knowledge is a rather huge concept.
Xiao En can only be considered a small success at present. If he wants to completely master the laws of knowledge, he still needs more accumulation.
If calculated according to the standard god template, Ogma, the god of knowledge in the kingdom of heaven, his basic skills should be - knowledge (arcana) +99, knowledge (architecture and engineering) +99, knowledge (geography) + 99, Knowledge (History) +99, Knowledge (Region) +99, Knowledge (Nature) +99, Knowledge (Nobility and Royal Power) +99, Knowledge (Religion) +99, Knowledge (Plane) +99, Knowledge (Mystery) )+99 and so on.
Inside the room.
Xiao En slowly opened his eyes and said to himself: "If I finish learning the Tower of Knowledge, I should be able to complete some of the content on planes, arcana, nature, mystery and religion. ”
“The dissemination of knowledge has begun again”
“The spiritual library is currently expanding step by step.”
"The last step on the road to destiny."
"I must do something that is enough to change the world and have a profound impact on the world, and it must be related to the field of knowledge."
"That's the only way Only then can I guarantee that I will 100% condense the Law of Destiny.”
So what should I do?
This is a problem that has always troubled Xiao En. Opening a school to spread knowledge has already been done by this unknown person. It takes too long to spread the word and bear fruit. Even though Xiao En has a lot of abilities now, he doesn't have any real law fields. The arcane mind is just a little bit behind, and the knowledge has not been completely condensed. The devil is still visiting, so he must get one first. The laws of the field can condense and digest the divine power.
To master a field requires decades or even hundreds of years of accumulation. Xiao En does not have that much time to develop slowly, so he can only find ways to win by surprise.
There was a soft sound of footsteps outside the door.
Xiao En raised his hand gently, and the door opened automatically. Outside the door was a beautiful girl with long light golden hair, tall and graceful, and a pair of gentle and calm eyes were looking at him.
Xiao En leaned slightly and lowered his head and said, "Teacher."
Ms. Hecate appeared as a blond girl. She looked at Xiao En quietly and said calmly: "You seem a little confused?"
Xiao En nodded: "Yes."
Ms. Hecate pondered for a moment and said: "Is it related to the path of knowledge?"
Xiao En replied: "Yes."
When he really came to the Tower of Knowledge, he realized how much he still had to learn. It wasn’t that Xiao En didn’t have the patience and perseverance to learn, but it just took too long. He felt that the Kingdom of Weirdness There was no way he could wait for the day when he could finish his journey through the mountains of books and the sea of learning.
Ms. Hecate walked to the desk, sat down gracefully, gently raised her white fingertips, and a glimmer of arcane light emerged. She said calmly: "You know the God of Knowledge - Ou Gemma? ”
Xiao En nodded and said: "I know. The powerful divine power of Kingdom Tianyu."
Ms. Hecate said lightly: "He is actually a god from another world. When the world of Muriel was just born, there was a traveler When this traveler came to this world from an extremely distant country, he saw that the whole world was in chaos, and many constantly changing concepts needed to be settled."
"So this. Over the next countless years, a traveler defined and named each concept. The names given by the traveler exerted power and fixed all the originally elusive concepts, forming the natural world in our understanding.”
“This traveler is Ogma, the namer of all things.”
When Xiao En heard Ms. Hecate’s words, he instantly fell into deep thought, as if he had thought of something.
Ms. Hecate said calmly: "All concepts in the weird kingdom are also chaotic. The old ones control the laws and have the right to define those concepts."
"So we can never win."
< br>“This is why we fully support you in embarking on the path of knowledge, because your thinking has not been solidified by this world, and your cognition can fight against blindness and ignorance.”
“Only you can redefine The world!”
A flash of inspiration seemed to flash in Xiao En’s mind.
Ms. Hecate continued calmly: "You have completed the understanding of yourself and the definition of the cognitive world, and even inspired me with this, allowing me to find the laws of the Godhead that were obscured by blindness and ignorance."
< br>"Then what you need to do next is to redefine the concept of this world."
"Just like 'Ogma, the Namer of All Things'."
Xiao Enwen Yan was silent for a long time and murmured: "Teacher. But my current strength is not enough to do all this. In fact, even the road to my destiny is extremely difficult for me. I have too many things to learn."
Ms. Hecate stood up, and the blonde girl she transformed into smiled and caressed Xiao En's forehead, and said calmly: "Here, knowledge is a resource."
"Since it is a resource, it can be plundered."
"If there is no way to define the world, then start with something simple."
"For example, literature, sculpture, painting, art, etc. The concept of knowledge is a very huge field. If you can't master it, start with the lower fields of knowledge. They will become a springboard for you to access the field of knowledge."
Xiao En's mind seemed to flash. There was a flash of lightning, and he instantly thought of many things, as well as the indescribable illusions in the spiritual world.
Ms. Hecate whispered: "Do you know the god of literature-Dinaire?"
Xiao En nodded and said: "I know a little bit."
Ms. Hecate continued: "He is the secretary of Ogma, a god with inferior divine power."
"The legendary Dinai He and his followers have been searching for the "Final Scroll" throughout their lives. He and his followers are convinced that this scroll contains all the mysteries of the multiverse and can allow the life that reads this scroll to obtain the ultimate divinity."
"In the mythology of the church. Dinaire, as the attendant of the 'Namer-Ogma', gained divinity because he glimpsed a small part of the [Final Scroll]. Since then, he has been searching and reading The entire document has become the goal of his efforts."
Xiao En slowly raised his head and said: "But the [Final Document] is just a legend from the age of the ancient gods."
In the age of the ancient gods, people often became gods by chance, and some even became gods because they proposed and discovered a new concept.
But it will be difficult for such a thing to happen in the future. It may be because the laws of the world are becoming more and more stable. Without the trend of the times, pigs can no longer fly to the sky. They can only rely on hard power, so they become gods. They appeared.
However, the ascendants have been suppressed by the original gods of the old age, so their appearance is also a threat to other gods.
Ms. Hecate smiled when she heard this and said: "Yes. There is no final scroll in the Weird Kingdom, but here is the "Scroll of Darkness", here is the "Secret Book of Ancient Elves", and even the Re-engraved A golden scroll from the Ser Era"
Xiao En said thoughtfully: "Some of them seem to be in Candle Keep."
Ms. Hecate said in a gentle voice: "The Scroll of Darkness allows you to master religious knowledge and mysterious knowledge comparable to that of demigods. The Secret Book of Ancient Elves can help you understand the countless secrets of the ancient gods. The Golden Scroll can Let you master more arcane knowledge."
"But there is no need to worry about these for now. Even if you get them, you may not be able to read them all."
"What do you think of weirdness. The art field of the country? ”
Art?
Shaun instantly thought of the great detective-Morty Lane.
He pondered for a moment and replied: "The art field in the real country has been suppressed because of indescribable illusions. There are very few novels and picture books here, and the inspiration for creation is limited. Even in the prosperous city of Dorne, ordinary people People can only buy some boring impurities and newspapers. "
Compared with previous lives, even in ancient times, there were many fantasy and erotic picture books, but they are very rare in the real country.
Ms. Hecate nodded: "Yes."
"Since the turbulent era, all fields of artistic creation have been distorted."
"False changes became a reality.”
"Although we paid a huge price to suppress the indescribable illusion in the spiritual world, because of the distortion of the law, we have to limit the crazy inspiration of mortals."
Xiao En thoughtfully.
He felt inspired, but still just a little short of it.
Ms. Hecate said softly: "I am not a demigod on the path of knowledge, so I can't give you much guidance."
"But you can try to learn from literature, sculpture, Start with the concept of painting ”
"Because there are many indescribable illusions that are born from these realms. Strictly speaking, they are born by faith and live by thoughts."
The Great Detective - Morty Lane and the Blade Dancer .
Xiao En instantly thought of the two monsters who almost killed him. The indescribable illusion, a book, a painting, turned into an evil object with powerful power in the spiritual world.
“If there is a god in the land of the grotesque, it is that the god of literature and art is mad.”
“These concepts are twisted by madness.”
"The character in the novel became the great detective Morty Lane, and the bloody dancer in the painting became a blade dancer."
"The teacher hopes that I can revise these concepts with the power of the path of knowledge."
How to correct it?
Xiao En feels that the best correction is to kill them, focus the distorted literature, sculpture, painting and other fields on himself, and then try to redefine it in his own way to return everything to normal. . If you think about it this way, there are very few monsters with knowledge fields in the weird kingdom, but there are a lot of monsters with lower extension fields of knowledge.
Of course, among so many evil things, there is no doubt that monsters twisted in the field of 'art' are relatively easy to deal with, but they are difficult to kill completely.
"But I have the talent of killing children."
Xiao En said secretly: "I wonder if I can directly plunder their soul power?"
"Art activates into monsters."
"If I were to write "Liao Zhai" here, would a vixen appear?"
Indescribable nonsense.
The source of their birth is the extraordinary divine power of 'distorting reality'. By spreading faith and blood sacrifice rituals, they continue to grow by devouring the souls of mortals.

(PS: The gods have extraordinary divine power [changing reality], while the old ones have extraordinary divine power [distorting reality].)
