Chapter 262 The Soul of the World Stays Temporarily
[Great ancestors, guide our souls to the other side of tranquility. ]
[Glorious ancestors, please guide our lost descendants. ]
【…】
The high priest took the lead in reciting the prayer in the ancient Eldar language. As the Eldar recited in unison, spiritual energy glowed on the bodies of thousands of Eldar.
The glowing tree gradually becomes brighter like a light bulb.
The blue light flowed along the roots and vines, converging from all directions and concentrating on the glowing tree.
A large number of tiny roots composed of light under the tree grew rapidly and covered Zhang Hong's body, and he suddenly formed a cocoon of light.
boom!
Zhang Hong felt a roar in his head.
Then his consciousness was forcibly drawn into a vortex of dazzling light - he did not resist, but let it go.
My eyes blurred, and in the blink of an eye I found myself in a world like a sea of stars.
Before my eyes was a swirling ball of light, like the center of the Milky Way, surrounded by endless points of light flowing like fireflies.
Zhang Hong stretched out his hand and scooped up the light spots, which flowed past like water.
He looked closely and saw some images flashing in the light spots. It turned out that each light spot was a memory.
【Welcome, distinguished stranger. 】
An ethereal voice echoed in the space, and points of light gathered to form the image of an elf woman dressed in ancient costume in front of Zhang Hong.
Communicating with Zhang Hong through thoughts.
[Are you the soul of the world? ]
Zhang Hong immediately thought of the legend about the wild spirits.
One of them is that the world where the Savage Eldar live in seclusion has an existence called [World Soul], which is similar to the legendary Gaia consciousness, and can protect the souls of the Savage Eldar from the invasion of Slaanesh.
[Yes, my name is Hilllandar, which is also the name of this planet. You can call me Hill.]
[Stranger, I can feel the power of light in you. ]
【You carry the hopes of countless people. 】
[I also sense that the power of destruction is entangled with you, and greed is tempting you. ]
The Soul of the World said ethereally.
She seemed emotionless, yet full of compassion, a compassion that came from a love for all life.
Zhang Hong's mind moved. It seemed that the Soul of the World was the product of the collective consciousness of the dead elves. In a sense, it had a similar essence to the four evil gods.
Maybe it can solve your own problems.
[Hill, I feel like my spirit is somewhat polluted. Do you have any good ideas to remove this pollution? ]
Zhang Hong asked.
【I can try. 】
After the Soul of the World finished speaking, it turned into a ball of light and surrounded Zhang Hong. Zhang Hong only felt an invisible coolness penetrating into his body, and his mind became clear.
Just when he thought that the purification of the World Soul had worked, the light around him left and transformed into human form again.
The World Soul said with a hint of apology: [Sorry, your soul is a little special, my power can only have a slight effect on you.]
[Perhaps you can try spiritual practice and purify the influence of the evil god with your own will. ]
After the Soul of the World finished speaking, he passed on to Zhang Hong a systematic method of spiritual practice of the elves.
Zhang Hong took a look and thought that it was about experiencing worldly life, cultivating one's character, improving one's mind, and tempering one's will.
【Okay, thank you, Hill.】
Although the other party failed to help him solve the problem, Zhang Hong still expressed his gratitude to the other party for his kindness.
[You're welcome. You're welcome to come and talk to me at any time. ]
The voice of the World Soul became distant.
With a thought, Zhang Hong's consciousness left the soul space of the Soul of the World and returned to reality.
The spirit prayer ceremony outside was almost over. After it was over, Zhang Hong pretended to blink his eyes and woke up.
"My fellow citizens—ugh!"
The ceremony of communicating with the world soul ended, and the high priest of the Eldar was just about to say something.
Suddenly, a terrifying spiritual force swept across the wild world like a storm, like an invisible giant hand, tightly grasping the entire planet.
Suddenly, the high priest and all living beings on the planet felt a desperate and suffocating feeling.
It was as if I had turned into an ant that would be crushed to pieces with a slight pinch between the giant's fingers.
There was also a hint of murderous intent in the vast mental power, and the combination of the two was comparable to a forbidden psychic technique, which made everyone unable to move.
Even the high priest who possessed powerful psychic powers and could cast disaster-level spells had his strength restrained under his oppression and was unable to put up any resistance.
The high priest looked in horror at the figure that was slowly flying up not far away. The tall and burly body was floating in the air, with a red cloak fluttering behind him.
There was a scarlet glow in his eyes, filled with destructive power.
The mysterious human man brought by the Shadow Prophet, he has woken up!
Just when everyone thought that this man, exuding a terrifying devil-like aura, was about to start a killing spree in the next second.
The violent murderous intent suddenly dissipated, and the powerful mental force that suppressed everyone suddenly disappeared.
The red light in the man's eyes also dissipated, and his aura turned into sunshine and gentleness, exuding an aura that made people involuntarily feel close to him.
With a slightly confused look, the man looked around at everyone, and finally his eyes fell on the high priest.
"Where is this? Why am I here?"
After a friendly and in-depth exchange.
After waking up, Zhang Hong figured out the whole story and said to the high priest apologetically: "I'm sorry, I scared you just now. I thought you were still fighting the evil god."
"No, it's okay. Understood."
None of the elves present dared to complain, and everyone put on their best smiles.
After the false alarm just now, they have personally felt the power and terror of this "guest".
Combined with the other party's story of fighting with the four evil gods and escaping from the subspace... it is confirmed that he is a big guy, we can't afford to offend him and we dare not touch him.
So the elves, who had always been very arrogant towards foreigners, rarely showed the most humble and polite attitude.
Zhang Hong was treated as an honored guest and entertained with all his might.
Don't dare to be negligent or offensive in the slightest.
A conversation.
Zhang Hong learned a lot of information about this wild world called Hilllandal.
The planet is slightly smaller than Earth, and is home to about 1.2 billion wild elves. They have been living here in seclusion for more than 30,000 years.
He had been living a secluded life long before the destruction of the Eldar.
The planet is protected by the powerful magic of the World Soul, and ordinary alien spacecraft passing by cannot discover the existence of this planet. The Eldar living on the planet rarely leave their homes.
Therefore, they are able to live here and lead a peaceful life.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the galaxy and the endless chaotic war.
In the words of Zhang Hong’s hometown, Hillandal is a veritable paradise.
"Your Excellency the High Priest, can I rest here for a while?"
Zhang Hong asked politely.
If the other person is friendly, you will naturally treat them politely.
"Of course, it's my pleasure to wait! You can stay as long as you want."
The high priest quickly expressed his opinion, somewhat flattered.
I thought that this strong man was quite easy to talk to. He was worthy of being recognized by the God of Laughter Xi Gaoqi, and the man who shouldered the fate of the entire elf race.
——As for the specifics of what happened, the Shadow Prophet did not tell the High Priest, and the High Priest did not ask any more questions.
We are all old riddlers and know the rules.
Don't ask too many questions that shouldn't be asked.
The reason why Zhang Hong wanted to stay in the wild world for a while was because he felt that the previous battle with the four evil gods had caused a very serious impact on his spirit, which could not be ignored.
Sure enough, on the second night of staying on the wild planet, Zhang Hong had another nightmare.
