Chapter 274: Small World Destroyed, Main World Absorbs the Origin

A giant in thought, that is exactly Yu Xiaogang.

Learns it the moment he sees it, ruins it the moment he does it.

He grasps all the theoretical points, but his practical operation is a total mess.

Yu Xiaogang imagined many scenarios of himself learning to craft a Soul Guidance Device, but in reality, he had no manual skill at all.

After getting his hands on a semi-finished Soul Guidance Device that had not yet been inscribed with Rule Runes, Yu Xiaogang began to inscribe.

With Spirit Power as his blade, he began to inscribe through the semi-finished Soul Guidance Device.

A stroke to the left, a stroke to the right.

Ruined it immediately, discard it and start another.

His hand trembled, the stroke went crooked, ruined, start again.

Making a turn, the turn was too sharp, ruined, start again.

Drawing a circle, it didn't come out round, ruined, start again.

……

A dozen or so semi-finished Soul Guidance Devices were, in the end, not enough for Yu Xiaogang to consume.

In just half a day, he ruined them all.

Yu Xiaogang's mental defenses were completely shattered.

Started full of confidence, ended with a mouth full of flowery excuses.

He was one step away from success, but that step was a bottomless abyss.

Tang San had also been stuck on this step of Rune inscription for a long time before he finally had to give up.

Why is it so difficult to proceed once you have self-taught up to this point?

There is a key to it.

First, it depends on talent.

Those with good talent are as if helped by the gods.

Second, it depends on Spirit Power control.

Cultivation of soul power requires the cultivation of soul power control, and naturally, Spirit Power requires it too.

In fact, the control of Spirit Power is quite similar to soul power control.

Cultivating more Spirit Power skills will naturally make one more proficient in using Spirit Power, and control will also improve.

The "Jerry Meditation Method" contains many applications of Spirit Power; Tang San understands the benefits of powerful Spirit Power better than others, so he cultivated every Spirit Power skill he could.

Yu Xiaogang, however, lacked this vision; he simply cultivated Spirit Control to make it more convenient to pick up and move things in daily life.

One only regrets having read too little when the time comes to use it.

……

Inside the Small World.

Jerry was currently observing the development of the Small World.

The Fairy Queen and the Silver Dragon King suddenly contacted him to say that there was a problem with the Small World, so he rushed over immediately.

The first replica of the Douluo World had been developing quite well.

Without Tang San and Jerry, the development was perfectly fine.

Suddenly, one day, a war broke out directly.

The entire replica world was plunged into war.

This war lasted for twenty years once it started.

After twenty years, only three major forces remained on the continent.

Every force had seen tremendous development and improvement over these twenty years.

Those that failed to develop had long since been wiped out by others.

Just as the three parties were deadlocked, the gods of the replica world opened the passage to the God Realm, and several gods flew out, including the Asura God of the replica world.

As soon as they came out, they thought of stopping the war.

The world consciousness of the replica world appeared.

That's right!

This war was pushed by the world consciousness itself.

The world consciousness wanted to accelerate the development of the world to improve itself.

It hadn't gone to trouble the God Realm, yet these gods dared to come down and hinder the evolution of the world consciousness.

Could the world consciousness swallow its anger?

The answer is no.

Old scores and new grudges, it was the perfect time to settle them all together.

The consciousness of this replica world understood few Rules and was a bit stupid; it actually chose to fight face-to-face.

How stupid!

You are a world consciousness, after all.

Isn't it better to use the power of the world to suppress your opponents?

Choosing this kind of face-to-face combat is undoubtedly the stupidest way.

The world consciousness and the gods were deadlocked.

The battle between the two sides severely damaged the replica world.

Finally, the gods brought out their trump card; they took out a colorful object.

The World Hub.

Back then they were taken away by the gods, and now they still want to take them out to constrain themselves.

When the World Consciousness saw this, it instantly dared not be careless.

Its eyes now only held the colorful World Hub; it had to snatch it back.

Thus, the World Consciousness began to use more power to fight.

Without limit, it crazily mobilized the energy of the entire world.

Using energy this way, even after the war ends, it is estimated that it will take a very, very long time to recover.

The gods of the God Realm were no pushovers either; they took the World Hub and began to resist the World Consciousness.

The World Consciousness mobilized energy, and the gods began to obstruct it.

The gods clearly underestimated the madness of the World Consciousness.

It directly detonated the energy, wanting to blow these gods to death.

Once this explosion started, it was very difficult to stop.

The entire world was blown until it was riddled with holes, and the humans and other living beings inside had long since been blown into nothingness between heaven and earth.

Only then did the gods realize the madness of the World Consciousness.

They thought of fleeing to the God Realm.

How could the World Consciousness let them have their way? The entire world had already been blown up once; could it still let them run away?

It had to clear out these meddlesome gods.

Once the passage to the God Realm opened, the inside and outside were connected.

The World Consciousness seemed to sneer, directly following the passage to begin detonating energy.

The violent energy made the gods outside not dare to return easily.

They could only watch helplessly, waiting for the explosion to end so they could return immediately.

The God Realm that replicated the world was similar to the God Realm of the Main World.

The concentration of soul power inside was more than a thousand times that of the outside.

The area of the God Realm was limited, and energy filled the entire space.

The entire God Realm was like a closed space of high-density energy.

At this moment, a tiny fuse ignited the energy inside.

Is that why you are like this?

"Boom..."

A huge explosion sounded.

The God Realm exploded?

While the gods outside were still hesitating, a wave of energy impact brought about by the explosion of the God Realm instantly landed on them.

This impact force was very strong and carried the power of destruction; it instantly destroyed the bodies of the gods, then continued to impact outward, until finally, it crashed into the continent.

The World Consciousness was a bit dumbfounded at this moment.

This had already exceeded its range of control.

And now it seemed it could no longer be stopped.

While the World Consciousness was still thinking about how to solve it, the entire continent shattered directly.

The World Consciousness was born based on the world.

Now that the foundation of the world, the planet, was destroyed, could the World Consciousness still exist?

The destruction of the planet was only the beginning; the star system Jerry built was hit by the impact of the planet's explosion, and one planet after another was detonated in succession.

In less than a moment, apart from flying debris and violent energy turbulence, there was nothing left in the entire star system.

After Jerry finished watching the recorded images, he was speechless.

Holy cow!

Truly amazing; this isn't destroying a world, this is directly destroying a star system.

And after destruction, it cannot be reborn after a period of time like before; it is a thorough, complete destruction.

Jerry tried to perform a Recovery, but unfortunately, even he could not recover it now; there was too much energy turbulence inside.

This was merely the beginning; subsequently, the other nine worlds also erupted into war at this moment.

In the end, they were all destroyed in an instant, which likewise drove the entire star system to be destroyed together.

This, this, this.

Has it reached a certain time?

Just like before, every few tens of thousands of years, the living beings on the Small World would perish, and after a period of time, they would be born again, just like reincarnation.

But this time it was too severe; the world is gone, the star system is gone, can this still be reincarnated?

Jerry was dumbfounded at this moment, the Silver Dragon King was also dumbfounded, and the Fairy Queen was also dumbfounded.

Destruction was only a matter of an instant; the three of them hadn't even reacted before it was directly destroyed.

The Fairy World developed by the Fairy Queen, the Soul Beast World developed by the Silver Dragon King.

And the Soul Guidance World, the Pill World, the Technology World, as well as the other four worlds that developed freely.

All were destroyed in an instant, making it a bit hard for the three to accept.

If they had known it would be destroyed, they could have transferred the living beings of the Small Worlds to the Main World, so their hard work wouldn't have been in vain.

As a result, now everything was in vain.

What kind of situation is this? Jerry was now also full of doubts.

The World Consciousness of the Main World suddenly descended beside the three of them at this time.

Very quickly, the matter of the world destruction was understood.

"Jerry, Silver Dragon King, Fairy Queen, I might know why these Small Worlds were destroyed!"

The World Consciousness said flatly, without a trace of emotion mixed in.

This sentence made the three of Jerry instantly snap back to their senses, looking at the World Consciousness, preparing to hear what it would say next.

"It is World Advancement!"

"When the world was advancing, it was discovered that the world was not yet complete, but it had already stopped."

"The energy released during the advancement could not be borne by the world, which is why the world destruction was caused."

"Replicating the Douluo World, the Small World consciousness detonating energy was just a coincidence; at the instant after the God Realm exploded, the world also began to advance."

"Otherwise, how could you think that the explosion of a God Realm, which is equivalent to a sealed bomb, could blow up an entire world?"

"Compared to a Small World, the area of the God Realm doesn't even reach one ten-millionth of a Small World; how could it possibly have such great power to destroy a Small World."

"It was entirely a coincidence."

"These ten Small Worlds of yours were created at roughly the same time, with little difference in their sequence, which is why they advanced one after another."

"The replicated Douluo was the first world created, and being the first to be destroyed was the omen."

"Actually, these ten worlds of yours look like Small Worlds, but in fact, they do not count as Small Worlds."

"At the very beginning, these ten Small Worlds were connected to the Main World, so the ten Small Worlds could only advance along with the Main World; when the Main World advanced successfully, the Small Worlds advanced automatically, and there was no danger."

"But later, you felt that by doing this, the Small Worlds were absorbing nutrients from the Main World to grow. Moreover, after your clone became the Pillar Supporting the Sky, it could completely convert soul power autonomously."

"Afterward, you separated the ten Small Worlds, connecting them directly to the energy in the universe."

"At this moment, the Small Worlds were considered independent, and there was a possibility of autonomous advancement."

"Normally speaking, this time would require millions of years."

"But Jerry, you kept Time Acceleration on, so millions of years of time didn't amount to much."

"Because the Small Worlds were incomplete, failure in advancement was inevitable."

"A complete world can operate autonomously and convert soul power autonomously, just like the Main World."

"Above the Main World, the Five-Layer Conversion Isolation Belt, you have seen this as well."

"With these Five-Layer Conversion Isolation Belt, the world can autonomously convert soul power; I also do not know how this Isolation Belt was formed, it existed the moment I was born."

"Your Small Worlds have no Isolation Belt; converting soul power relies entirely on your clone, the Pillar Supporting the Sky. The operation of celestial bodies in the universe relies entirely on the energy you convert to push them."

"Rather than calling them Small Worlds, it is more appropriate to say they are large Soul Guidance Devices you created."

"It is just that this Soul Guidance Device involves a world, and the World Rule is superior to the Soul Guidance Device."

"After excluding your elements, the Small World can only be considered half a world; for half a world to advance, wanting to succeed is too difficult."

When the World Consciousness said this, Jerry suddenly realized.

So that's how it is.

I was truly too self-righteous.

Previously, when the ten Small Worlds were connected to the Main World, at the time I only thought that they shouldn't be like the God Realm, absorbing nutrients from the Main World to grow, so I had the idea of using the Pillar Supporting the Sky to convert soul power to replace absorbing the Main World's energy.

If I hadn't disconnected them, no matter how much I used Time Acceleration, the Small Worlds wouldn't have advanced, and the previous research results would still be there.

It was all my own self-righteousness, thinking I had opened up Small Worlds, but they didn't count as independent worlds at all.

I took it for granted.

I was wondering how opening up a world could be so simple, opening ten of them with a wave of my hand.

"Jerry, it is already very difficult to recover here, but I just discovered that I seem to be able to absorb the Origin of these ten Small Worlds. Now that the Small Worlds have not been destroyed for long, the Origin has not yet dissipated. If I don't absorb it, it will slowly dissipate over time."

The World Consciousness suddenly said solemnly.

Absorb!

A powerful world devouring a weak world to grow using it as nutrients—Jerry seemed to have heard of this somewhere.

These ten Small Worlds, even if they aren't complete worlds, can still count as half-worlds.

If the Main World devours them, will it grow again?

"Really? Then hurry up and absorb them; we will leave the Small World space and take a look from the outside."

After speaking, the three of Jerry left directly. Although the Silver Dragon King and the Fairy Queen knew the reason for the matter, they were still very sad.

The Silver Dragon King's sadness was directly expressed on her face; although the Fairy Queen was expressionless, Jerry could feel her inner heart.

"Don't worry, this time it was just my lack of understanding of the world. When I truly understand the world in the future, I will open up the Spirit Beast World and the Fairy World for you again."

Jerry sighed and persuaded them.

Although he had witnessed the extinction of creatures in Small Worlds many times before, this was the first time he had seen an entire world destroyed all at once, with everything turning into nothingness in an instant.

The impact alone was not comparable to previous biological extinctions.

The World Consciousness had already begun to absorb the Small World space.

Although the Small Worlds were destroyed, all the energy was still preserved in the space. This energy was running around everywhere, causing energy riots, but these were nothing to the Main World.

When the World Consciousness began to absorb, the Main World continent also began to change.

Jerry could clearly feel it, and other gods could also clearly feel it; they looked up at the sky one after another. There was no change, but they could just feel the world changing.

If the world grows naturally, it takes a very long time, changing slowly over hundreds or millions of years, so people within the world cannot feel it.

Now it is absorbing Small Worlds, and the speed is very fast, so it made everyone feel this process of change.

It is just that the perception of god-level powerhouses is stronger.
