That's it, I'm high on drugs, I'm completely out of it.
But that doesn't make sense either, because even if he was high on drugs, he shouldn't have forgotten something as important as the Divine Examination. It must be that some damned Scrivener is backstabbing him and stabbing him in the back, which is why his memory is so bad now.
I, Lin Nuo, will remember this grudge!
Using his soul power to shake off the dust, Lin Nuo reached out and gently touched his brow, and a verdant light screen immediately appeared before his eyes.
[The Second Test of Life: Breakthrough]
[Successfully acquired a Soul Ring with Divine Foundation aptitude. Assessment exceeded expectations. Reward: 5% Life Affinity, 1 World Seed.]
After Lin Nuo had reviewed all the information, the divine light screen quietly shattered, and countless starlight eventually converged into a pink light particle. The structure of this light particle was so complex that it resembled a celestial book. Even with Lin Nuo's current level of understanding, he could not discern the immense power contained within the light particle.
Lin Nuo didn't know why it was called the Seed of the World, but it did indeed emit strong fluctuations of spacetime laws.
"So—how do you use the Seed of This World?" He reached out and poked the Seed of This World with some curiosity, but the moment his fingertip touched it, the Seed of This World merged directly into Linno's body.
At that moment, Electrolux's voice echoed in Linno's mind.
"Huh? This little thing—" The World Seed, which had just merged into Linno's body, was immediately drawn away by Electrox's divine sense and thrown into the two demiplanes that were merging.
"The god who took a liking to you is quite generous, actually giving you something like this. It seems your growth rate will accelerate considerably."
"The Seed of the World, it's the original seed of a world? How can it help me?" Lin Nuo asked humbly.
"Help? Yes, but not as much as you think. The Seed of the World is an excellent aid for others who want to embark on the path of world creation, but for someone like you who already has a demiplane and I'm giving you another one, the Seed of the World has very limited effect," Electrox said.
It's like giving someone who can cook to the food to cook themselves, or giving them a table full of prepared food. For them, it's just a meal, at most they're eating a ready-made meal without having to cook for themselves.
However, for someone who can't cook, putting fresh vegetables in front of them is a completely different matter from putting a whole table of food in front of them.
He can only stare blankly at fresh vegetables; even if he grits his teeth and tries to cook, the most likely outcome is that he'll just blow up the kitchen.
The same principle applies to the world seed.
Just like Lin Nuo, he initially didn't know what the world was, let alone thought about evolving the Blue Silver Grass towards the direction of the World Tree. It was only after Electrox used the Gold of Life to open up the inner world for him that he thought of taking this path.
If he had possessed a World Seed at that time, he could have bypassed the insurmountable problem of Electrolux.
With the Seed of the World present, Lin Nuo doesn't need to learn how to create a world. He only needs to integrate it into his body and then arrange for his martial soul to take root in the Seed of the World. It will grow along with his martial soul until it becomes a real world.
Therefore, the Seed of the World is precious, yet not so precious. At least for Linno, its help is limited, but not nonexistent.
Electrolux used the World Seed as a catalyst for the fusion of the two demiplanes, which to some extent reduced the pressure on the World Tree and the Evil Emperor's main body, and also accelerated the fusion process.
Moreover, the rules contained in this Seed of the World can save Lin Nuo time in perfecting the rules of the world within his body. The more rudimentary rules contained in the Seed of the World, and the more perfect they are, the more time Lin Nuo will save in the future.
These are things that can be gradually improved over time; they are not things that cannot be done without them.
So, there was some help, but not much.
However, the faster one cultivates during the human stage and the more solid one's foundation, the further one can go and the stronger one's combat power will be after becoming a god. It can be considered as icing on the cake.
"However—" Electrox rubbed his chin, standing atop the World Tree and looking down at the two demiplanes that were merging in a grand manner, "The new world seems to be giving birth to something—this feeling is somewhat familiar, I think I have a vague recollection of it."
"What is it?" Lin Nuo was also stunned.
What is being nurtured?
Does the world give birth to things?
Could it be a dimensional consciousness?
Aside from dimensional consciousness, Lin Nuo could hardly think of anything else that could be nurtured by the world, and dimensional consciousness was quite common in the Douluo Continent universe.
Both the consciousness of the Douluo Continent plane possessed by Tang Hao and A Yin, and Long Tianyang, the life source of the Dragon Horse Twin Stars, belong to this kind of existence.
Since there was already a precedent, Lin Nuo wasn't surprised or particularly concerned that his own world might give birth to something similar.
Even if this world truly gave birth to a plane consciousness, it was based on Lin Nuo's martial soul. Every grain of dust in this world is imprinted with Lin Nuo's aura, and he can absolutely control everything.
Once the consciousness of the plane is born, it will regard him as the sole ruler and will not be able to resist any of his wills.
Since resistance is futile, Lin Nuo can use his martial soul and the world to create a plane consciousness, and naturally he can also erase it through certain means.
As the Worldseed became more deeply integrated, it also became a complete part of the Linno world. At this moment, Electrox finally saw clearly what he had been feeling before.
"The God of Rules?" Electrox raised an eyebrow, looking at the golden sun and white moon in the sky.
On those two radiant giant stars, he sensed a grand and vast will that could easily cover the entire world and mobilize its power to grant him supreme strength.
Aside from Linno, they are the only two beings who can utilize the underlying power of this world.
In the blazing sun, a figure clad in a magnificent golden dragon imperial robe, exuding an aura of grandeur and majesty, sat upon a throne formed from solidified flames. In the bright white moonlight, another figure, dressed in a moon palace robe, with a cool and reserved demeanor, bowed slightly before a table.
The auras of these two figures were exactly the same, both reaching the limit of this world, the peak of the quasi-god realm in Douluo Continent.
That is, the peak state of the Evil Emperor before his sacrifice not long ago.
However, their expressions and demeanor were extremely indifferent and cold, devoid of any extra emotion. They only looked down upon all things in the world with ruthless disdain, silently observing the changes and development of this world.
God of Rules.
This is Electrolux's definition of their identities.
Of course, if we define it using Linno's understanding, the two of them can also be called the plane consciousness of this world.
Lin Nuo glanced through the world at the golden sun and silver moon hanging in the sky, and looked with great interest at the two newly born plane consciousnesses of the world.
The first one he looked at was the one on the sun.
Hmm—tall and shapely, with a stunningly beautiful face that exudes just the right amount of coldness and majesty, and an aura of a queen who looks down on all things, making her seem like an ancient empress.
But the problem is—why the hell do you have the face of an evil emperor?!
Lin Nuo's smile froze instantly.
Indeed, the Sun Empress on the Golden Sun has features that are extremely similar to the Evil Emperor. Due to the Evil Emperor's race, the Evil Eye clan has a somewhat sinister aura, and the Evil Emperor's transformed face also carries a bit of the effeminate feel of an old cunning man.
But if this effeminate face were removed from the face of the Evil Emperor and placed on the face of another woman, and this woman's facial features were also softer, then the combination would be perfectly harmonious.
But the biggest sense of incongruity is that it doesn't feel out of place at all!
A female version of the Evil Emperor? Holy crap! It's hard to imagine what kind of expression the Evil Emperor's soul will have when it wakes up and sees the Sun Empress on the golden sun.
For someone like Lin Nuo who had seen the Evil Emperor in person, this was nothing short of mental pollution.
It's even more Cthulhu-like than the Evil Emperor's original form with its huge eyeballs and tentacles.
The Sun Empress, seated on her throne, seemed to notice Lin Nuo's gaze. She raised her head, met his eyes, stood up, and bowed deeply to him.
"Greetings, my God."
Even when it speaks, it's like a dead person; those four words have no intonation whatsoever, as rigid and lifeless as an AI human-machine interface.
Lin Nuo shuddered and, without saying a word, averted his gaze and ran away at lightning speed.
When the Sun Empress spoke, the artificiality that emanated from the screen made him feel as if he were facing a silicone doll molded from the Evil Emperor. No matter how beautiful and stunning she was, Lin Nuo felt that he couldn't withstand this kind of mental pollution.
That's fucking exciting!
No, once the Evil Emperor wakes up, I must show him my gender-swapped self as soon as possible.
"Hehehehehe————"
Moreover, Lin Nuo also discovered that the remains of the Evil Emperor were gone. Such a large eyeball could not have disappeared into thin air. Considering the Sun Empress on the Golden Sun, Lin Nuo had basically guessed the truth.
What about the silver moon?
Lin Nuo couldn't help but turn his gaze to the graceful figure in the silver-white moon palace, dressed in a long palace gown. The latter also exchanged a glance with Lin Nuo before giving a graceful bow.
"Greetings, my God."
The same cold tone devoid of any emotion, as if devoid of all feelings and will, possessing only the most basic instinct and will to operate the rules of heaven and earth, could not even be called a living being.
This is why Electrox referred to the two of them as gods of rules.
In the Holy Demon Continent, the only way to become a god, besides achieving the Divine Seal Throne, is to completely control a certain law of the world and then integrate oneself entirely into that law.
After becoming a complete god, a deity who controls a set of rules will become one of the world's underlying codes. They will be able to control all the power within their own set of rules, and even have the power to decide the life or death of any living being who cultivates their own set of rules in an instant.
The price is that these gods of rules, who become the rules of the world, will lose all their will and emotions, becoming absolutely rational beings. Their only purpose in existence will be to maintain the world.
This situation is no different from that of the Sun Empress and the Silver Moon Fairy before our eyes.
Lin Nuo knew all of this, and after seeing the existence of the Sun Empress, he understood the roles of the two of them.
The problem is—the Silver Moon Woman's face is Snow's—
"How come you're just like those people from the Holy Spirit Cult, an unkillable cockroach?" Lin Nuo suddenly wore a pained expression, covering his eyes as if he couldn't bear to look at her.
The Silver Moon Fairy remained silent for a while, seemingly pondering the meaning behind Lin Nuo's words.
"My God, I do not know what the Holy Spirit Cult you speak of is, but I am indeed immortal. As long as my God's world exists, I can be reborn again and again. This is my God's blessing." He knelt on one knee and said expressionlessly.
"Never mind." Lin Nuo shook his head.
It's not her anymore.
The current Sun Empress and Silver Moon Fairy are merely world consciousnesses derived from Lin Nuo's world rules. The Sun Empress was born from the remains of the Evil Emperor, which were infused with the nutrients of the Undead Demiplane, while the Silver Moon Fairy was born from the disintegration of the Snow Emperor when she was in the Living Demiplane.
As the two strongest beings imprinted in the rules of the Linno world, they naturally became the forms used when the world consciousness condensed into physical form.
Furthermore, due to Linno's will, the world consciousness can only be female; males will inevitably not be accepted by Linno. Therefore, both of them are goddesses. This is Linno's world, and all evolution and development in the world will be influenced by Linno's will.
This is only the most basic part.
"So, it seems you should thank that snow woman from back then." Electrox quietly appeared beside Linno, thoughtfully stroking his beard.
He said meaningfully, "Do you see their condition? This is the price to pay for controlling a world. The Heavenly Dao, or the consciousness of a plane, or the God of Laws, are all important components in maintaining the operation of a world; they are the managers of the world."
"And when they control the entire world, they will inevitably perceive every detail of the world, every living being, and hear what the living being thinks and what the living being contemplates."
"The thoughts of all living beings are so vast that they cannot be sustained by human will. Therefore, every world ruler is, and can only be, an existence devoid of emotion and feeling."
"If it weren't for them, you would be the one sitting in their place in the future."
Lin Nuo swallowed hard. Cold sweat had unknowingly covered his forehead, and his chest and back felt sticky and damp.
He was drenched in sweat.
He wouldn't have noticed it if Electrolux hadn't pointed it out.
After all, he has controlled the world for so long, and he has never been affected by the world in return. From beginning to end, he has been the one unilaterally using the world's abilities.
The problem is, fate is cruel!
