Chapter 926 Harmony of Mind and Spirit 1
Sheli merely sensed it for a moment, and after understanding it completely, he began to spread his Dao Fruit, forming a transparent and invisible barrier to envelop Chen Cheng's consciousness space.
This effectively added a barbed wire fence to Chen Cheng's mind, preventing the gods in the abyss outside from controlling him through his will.
Just as the Dao fruit of relinquishing was spreading, the closed-eyed deity sitting in the void suddenly moved.
The Dao Fruit, which had been scattered, was now grasped by the outstretched hand of the closed-eyed deity. Upon seeing this, Chen Cheng immediately tried to control the closed-eyed deity to release the Dao Fruit.
However, after he merged with the will of the deity, he understood that this was not the deity resisting the relinquished Dao fruit, but rather the natural reaction of this half-baked deity after sensing the rudimentary form of the Dao fruit.
The Dao Fruit was forcibly re-condensed, and then the immense divine power within the god's body, like a surging tide finding an outlet, rapidly poured into the relinquished Dao Fruit.
Just as the Great Wall Army used military formations to accelerate the maturation of Chen Cheng's divine domain, his divine power was also rapidly accelerating the maturation of the nascent Dao Fruit of the Departed.
The Dao Fruit began to manifest in illusory forms, all of which were scenes of abandoning daily arduous practice of the Dao of the Sword. As these scenes emerged, they began to solidify under the infusion of divine power, eventually transforming into a Dao Principle Tree shaped like a butcher's knife.
Upon seeing this Tree of Dao, Chen Cheng couldn't help but think of the World Tree Origin he had seen before, a tree imbued with extreme vitality.
Perhaps the fruit growing into a tree is the sign of becoming a god.
Of course, this Tree of Dao was only matured by his half-baked divine power, so it looks like a shrunken version in terms of size.
At the same time, Chen Cheng could also sense that this Tree of Dao could not last forever, and its disappearance would be determined by the amount of energy that She Li used to consume it.
After all, he was only a nascent Dao Fruit, and Chen Cheng himself was just a half-baked amateur.
Strictly speaking, now that he has merged with Sheli, he can barely be considered a true false god.
So when Chen Cheng and She Li opened their eyes again, Kui Niu felt that the two people in front of him were not two people at all, but had merged into a new life form.
"Your Majesty, how are you?"
Kui Niu asked cautiously.
Chen Cheng took a moment to reflect on his current state, and it was indeed as Dean Adolf had said: "You are in me and I am in you," a very strange feeling.
It's like after you have a split personality, you clearly know that you have two consciousnesses, and the memories between the consciousnesses can still be shared after they merge.
Even though you know it's all yourself, you subconsciously know it's another spiritual entity.
"I'm very good."
At this moment, Chen Cheng and She Li answered at the same time.
Such an answer was indeed very strange. After thinking about it, Chen Cheng conveyed his thoughts to She Li, and the two immediately separated from that feeling of mutual dependence.
"I am fine."
This time, it was only Chen Cheng who spoke up.
Kui Niu carefully examined Chen Cheng and, finding no signs of mental contamination, nodded and said:
"If Your Majesty wishes to resolve the Abyss, then you should hurry. The Black Demons climbing up from below are becoming stronger, and it won't be long before the true Abyss awakens and climbs up from below."
Kui Niu didn't hesitate and urged Chen Cheng to speed things up.
Although the interdependent relationship between the two has been separated, they still occasionally find themselves in sync.
So right after Kui Niu finished speaking, Chen Cheng and She Li looked down into the abyss.
Indeed, as Kui Niu said, the individual Black Demons climbing up from below were stronger. Some even had complete corpses, comparable to epic-level Black Demons, as they climbed up from below.
Seeing the black demon flying in from the sky, Chen Cheng used his hand as a blade, waved it in the air, and directly shattered the black demon. At the same time, the blade intent he released flew into the abyss below, cutting a gap in the dense swarm of black demons.
After assessing his own energy expenditure, he realized that he couldn't withstand such attacks for long. When it came to actually making a move, he would have to rely on Kui Niu, a true demigod-level powerhouse.
"Stay close to me, I'll go down and clear the way first."
After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he and She Li flew into the abyss through the cut opening, with Kui Niu following closely behind.
If an ordinary person came here, they might only feel darkness and the howls of the Black Demon, but to Chen Cheng and his companions, this place was not darkness, but deathly silence.
Here, they felt no vitality whatsoever. This vitality was not that of vibrant life, but rather the law of life under the operating principles of the world.
Here, the concept of life simply does not exist; there is only extreme death and nothingness.
This situation reminded Chen Cheng of what Kui Niu had said: this was the end of the world.
A complete world naturally has a complete set of laws. Even in a lifeless place, there are still laws governing life, which apply not only to the life of living beings but also to the life of the world itself.
Where there is no life, there may only be desolate nothingness beyond the world, so it is not an exaggeration for Kui Niu to say that this is the end of the world.
Such places are extremely unsuitable for life forms like them that have not yet reached godhood.
Although the energy here is abundant, they cannot convert it for their own use, nor can they heal their wounds after being injured.
Even if they are not injured or anything else, just staying here for a long time will cause them to lose their vitality and die here.
The only beings who could possibly live in such a place are the legendary true gods who have already condensed their divine bodies and stand shoulder to shoulder with the world.
No wonder that when Thornflower wanted to get rid of that divine thought, she brought him here.
God's thoughts are ultimately just God's thoughts, not the real God, and he would definitely not survive here if he stayed too long.
Thinking of this, Chen Cheng's eyes faintly gleamed as he scanned the surrounding group of black demons.
Chen Cheng didn't believe that the divine thought was really at the bottom of this abyss, because whether the abyss had a bottom was still unknown.
Chen Cheng's eyes did not have X-ray vision or other special abilities; he simply used his eyes as a sensory organ, employing divine power to perceive the abyss.
In his perception, this abyss was not a bottomless vertical cliff as his eyes saw it, but rather filled with countless spatial cracks and fissures, like a tangled mass of hyperspace.
In Chen Cheng's perception, many of these tangled hyperspace clusters resembled sewers blocked by some hard object, with only a very few, near the upper spatial rifts of the abyss, being interconnected.
Through these interconnected spatial gaps, Chen Cheng could sense the far northern ice plains; clearly, these spatial gaps all led to the far north.
