In just a few days, through a sudden increase in food intake and an all-round improvement in physical fitness to varying degrees, the wizard Aesop, who has grown fine water-gold scales on many places on his body, can be sure that he is no longer a pure human being.
"Is the God of Nothingness so terrifying?" The wizard Aesop looked at his current palm, his face full of awe, "I just looked at him, no, it's not even a look at each other.
Just this level of contact has changed my life so much."
"What would happen to me if I had a real contact and faced the true form of that great existence?" The wizard Aesop was very curious.
Because it was just a boring attempt, he got an opportunity that he had never imagined. Compared with his gains, the materials consumed in arranging the ritual were nothing at all and not worth mentioning.
Aesop has been tested, and the essence of his life has been completely changed. He has become a special creature that is superior to humans, possessing more vigorous vitality, stronger strength and longer lifespan.
It can be called a low effort and a harvest that can change your destiny. Such huge profits are enough to make the wizard Aesop lose his usual composure and try to communicate with the God of Nothingness for the second time.
Then, nothing happened. The wizard Aesop had already burned to ashes in the ceremony. After his expression changed several times, he finally returned to gloom. Then, his strong unwillingness and luck made him suffer in the following months.
Arrange rituals many times.
However, these summoning rituals had exactly the same results as he had expected before arranging the rituals for the first time. They were just a waste of materials and time, and he did not receive any response.
Such crazy behavior even attracted the attention of other wizards, because he purchased too many ritual materials, and then they ridiculed and persuaded him.
"They just don't understand."
The wizard who once had an extremely lucky encounter with a stalwart existence in nothingness that could not be called contact at all naturally looked down upon the outside world.
After months of madness, he gradually calmed down. He also understood that the reason why his attempt a few months ago was successful was probably just luck. Maybe the stalwart being at that time was as boring as he was.
So I set my sights on it.
"Aesop, Aesop, you should understand that for an ant-like guy like you to have an intersection with a being that only exists in myths once, you have already exhausted your lifelong luck. How can you expect a second time?"
The wizard laughed at himself and cut off his previous thoughts of luck, allowing himself to regain his clarity. "Now I am not qualified to come into contact with such an existence. I should work hard to practice and become stronger. Only if I am strong enough can I deflect such an existence slightly."
Look at me a second time."
…
In a primitive world full of wild atmosphere, giant beasts as tall as mountains are walking on the earth, and ferocious birds with spread wings that can cover half of the sky are hovering in the sky... This is a creature that was just born from the void not long ago.
The newborn world.
Of course, this does not last long, relative to the age of the world. The ancient era in this world, that is, the era when giant beasts are rampant, is about to end.
Because in this wild world, an intelligent population has emerged, giant apes that have learned to walk upright. The giant apes that have given birth to the first intelligence know how to use things outside themselves, and also know how to work together and hunt together.
As a result, the ferocious beasts that once caused these erect apes to flee in panic fell under their siege. Then the flesh and blood of the giant beasts became the food of the erect apes, which allowed the erect apes to gain a more powerful body and also gave the erect apes
For better weapons, inedible bone scales are far harder than ordinary metal.
In the endless fighting, the upright apes began to gradually multiply and spread in this wild land, and gradually grew stronger. More and more ferocious beasts fell at the feet of the upright apes who had learned to cooperate and knew how to use the human sea tactic to surround them.
However, in the extraordinary world, the human sea tactic loses its meaning after reaching a certain level. Therefore, the upright ape, whose wisdom has been further strengthened by hunting all kinds of extraordinary flesh and blood, knows awe.
They were in awe of the extraordinary giant beasts that could easily kill them. At first, the erect apes thought that these giant beasts were beyond their reach and impossible to hunt, so out of extreme fear, they learned to worship them.
The original totem worship was born. Tribes of upright apes scattered across the earth worshiped the extraordinary beasts around them depending on their location.
However, the world is so big that there will always be some special tribes. Probably due to geographical reasons, there are no extraordinary behemoths around them that can directly threaten them.
Therefore, this special tribe of erect apes does not have much respect, because in their knowledge, there is no creature in the world that they cannot hunt.
Because of this, this tribe of upright apes has no object of worship. After all, no one would worship a creature that would bleed under their own attacks, or even fall at their feet.
As a result, these tribes of upright apes with a relatively superior living environment began to worship the incorporeal natural celestial phenomena, such as majestic mountains towering into the clouds, vast rivers that could not be seen at a glance, or rolling thunderstorm clouds blooming with endless light.
The sun, or the moon with its soft moonlight.
On this earth, there is a tribe of upright apes who choose to worship the vast sky. Although the object of worship is somewhat special, it is considered normal. However, what they worship is not the boundless sky in a broad sense, but more specific.
existence.
The erectus who presided over the sacrifice believed that there was a majestic being in the sky that was more powerful than all the creatures on the earth. This being was high in the sky and controlled the cycle of day and night, as well as the wind, rain and thunder. He was the master of all things in the world.
Well, it sounds very powerful, but compared to the real extraordinary beasts worshiped by most of the erectus tribes on the earth, what this erectus tribe worships and sacrifices is actually themselves.
A fictional existence derived from obscenity.
However, in the extraordinary world, if a group of creatures believe that a fictional existence is real and worship it every day, the fake will become real, and the illusion will become real.
But it is a pity that the existence that this tribe of upright apes conjured up from obscenity, if it really existed, would be the ruler of this world. Therefore, with the size of this tribe of upright apes, even if they worship day and night, regardless of the god they worship,
No matter what, it won't turn into reality.
Unless this upright ape tribe can annex all other upright ape tribes, suppress all dissatisfaction in the world, and lead the upright ape population to become the absolute overlord of the world.
Then they multiplied wildly, causing apes to appear everywhere in the world. Finally, hundreds of millions of apes made sacrifices day and night for thousands of years. Only then did they have the slightest chance to turn the illusory and majestic existence that did not exist in their sacrifices into reality.
But this is simply impossible, so the majestic existence of their sacrifices not only does not exist, but there is no possibility of turning it into reality.
Therefore, all the sacrifices and worship activities of this tribe of upright apes are their self-pleasure behaviors and will not have any impact on themselves. After all, the power of faith generated by their sacrifices is not comparable to the power of the sacrifices.
Object, naturally there is no feedback.
However, there are always exceptions to everything. There is indeed no existence that controls the reincarnation of the sun and the moon, the wind, clouds and thunder, and is high in the sky, but there are similar existences outside the sky, that is, outside the world.
In the tribe of Heaven, the erect apes who worship the God of the Sky are preparing for a grand self-sacrifice ceremony once a month. They place the best prey they hunt this month on the sacrificial altar as a sacrifice.
No upright ape will be stingy with the prey he hunts, because they all know that the gods they worship will not pay attention to their sacrifices, and in the end these sacrifices will eventually enter their own stomachs.
A blazing flame ignited on the stone platform nearly fifty meters high. The erectus priest wearing a feather cloth looked at the spiritual flame ignited by him, and led a group of female erectus to dance the ritual ceremony passed down from generation to generation in the tribe.
dance.
While dancing, the Ape Erectus sacrificed and threw the spiritual objects collected by the warriors of the tribe into the flames. Well, these seemingly precious things are actually of little use to the tribe. They are all useless.
something.
Just like the dance it is dancing to worship the gods now, the Ape erectus who presides over the sacrifice is very clear that what he dances is completely different from the previous generation of sacrifices, but this is not a big problem. After all, each generation of sacrifices has its own ritual dance.
.
Of course, this is a nicer way of saying it. In fact, the dances to worship the gods are made up by the priests at will. You can dance however you want, as long as the group of female upright apes surrounding the spiritual fire move in unison.
But just as this sacrifice was about to come to an end, some of the males kneeling under the sacrificial altar began to think about how to seduce the beautiful female erectus at the next bonfire feast.
The spiritual flames on the sacrificial platform suddenly surged, and a majestic being who was very similar to the concept of the sky god worshiped by this strange tribe of upright apes lowered his will.
The red and yellow flames danced, turned into gold at an extremely fast speed, and then emitted terrifying devouring power, extracting the spirituality from the mountains of sacrifices placed around the altar, maintaining the majestic will of the descending
Can stay longer.
Therefore, you can see that the prey around the altar were turned into ashes at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then swept towards the Ape erectus kneeling around the altar under the light wind that blew up at an unknown time, causing their faces to change.
