Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 178 Flowing Life

Late at night, Valyrian halls.

"I've already given her the knife. Seeing how excited she is, I think she'll sleep with the knife in her arms tonight." Lucy teased with a smile.

On the opposite side of the tea table, Mikaela's slightly pale face was full of tiredness. Hearing this, he showed a relieved smile, and said, "It's good that she likes it, and our efforts in the past few days were not in vain."

Lucia nodded, "The three of us integrated our own original power when casting the knife, so as to echo the seal in her body, at least in the short term, we can continue to suppress the curse of corruption, plus the dragon king's scale and time and space The stored strength of the storm should buy us another year or so."

He glanced at Mikaela's face with some concern, and said, "How is the situation on your side? Don't make it so that you fail to find a solution and fall down first."

"It's okay, you haven't seen me like this before, it's just a side effect of excessive overdrawing of divine power," Mikaela sighed softly, "It's just that it seems that the two profound meanings of the fundamentalism of the Golden Law—return Neither the principle of sex nor the principle of causality is effective in curing corruption."

"The principle of regression is to return everything to its origin. In theory, within the reach of divine power, everything can be returned to its original state, and any injuries, illnesses, pollution, and curses are not a problem."

"The principle of causality means that everything is intertwined and causally related. It is reflected in the specific application. I only need to activate a small amount of divine power in Marenia's body to form a set of defenses that are directly effective at the conceptual level. The system will automatically drive away all interference from external forces on her body."

"These two, active and passive, are the supreme mysteries of the fundamentalism of the current Golden Law. If released with my pure divine power, it is said that either of them can clear the curse of corruption on Marenia, but in fact it is not the case at all. .”

He let out a deep breath, and said: "Their healing effect is not even comparable to those basic golden prayers. Whenever I lead the power of the law to Marenia, the corrupt power in her body will not retreat, but like It is like a fire thrown into dry wood that grows stronger--that curse is like the reflection of the golden tree, intertwined with each other, and the stronger the gold, the stronger the corruption."

Lucia frowned slightly, and said: "Perhaps this is the reason why corruption diseases are occasionally cured in those remote areas far away from the royal capital. On the contrary, the closer to the golden tree, the more sacred and powerful it is like Marenia." The blood of the demigod, the more difficult it is to eradicate the curse of corruption."

"That's right."

Mikaela closed her eyes, sighed deeply, and said: "At first, I thought I possessed purer divine power than my parents, and there was still a chance to heal Marlenia with the golden law, but this is not at all. It's a dead end."

"At this point, I can only try the last method that no one has tried before."

Lucia knew what Mikaela was talking about, even more clearly than he himself. The end of the so-called method was Mikaela's pure golden law - a kind of golden law that was born out of Elden's ring and the current golden law. Law, but a completely new law that runs counter to Radagon's fundamentalism.

And on the knife they jointly created as a gift to Marenia, Mikaela has already made a preliminary attempt. The "sacred rune" that is very different from the traditional golden magic rune is exactly what he has not yet learned. The most fundamental component of the formed law.

"Which step is it now?" Lucia asked softly, "What do I need to do?"

"Actually, I'm not sure whether this is a new law or an extension of the Golden Law. Right now, I only have a vague prototype in my mind, including some basic runes, laws and ways of using divine power."

Mikaela took a wooden teacup on the table with his hand, his slender white fingertips shone with a light golden halo, and the surface of the originally polished teacup suddenly squeezed out wrinkles like tree bark, and then changed It was wet and humid, and a new green appeared, and more and more emerald green leaves grew from the outer shell of the teacup, quickly wrapping it into a pocket-sized tree.

In the next second, those leaves turned from green to yellow, and then withered, fell, and rotted. The main body of the teacup as the "trunk" gradually withered. Make a pile of scattered sawdust.

Lucia was stunned for a moment. This teacup revived from a dead object, grew vigorously, then withered and withered, and reached the end of its life. It only took a few seconds in Mikaela's hands. This is one of the unformed laws. strength?

Seeing his eyes, Mikaela shook her head with a wry smile and said, "Don't be surprised, with my understanding of it now, I can only do such insignificant things."

"If we call it a new law, its origin is still the golden law held by the mother, and the essence of the golden law, or Elden's ring, lies in the law of life. The meaning of the abundance of breath.”

"However, life is not limited to the warm spring when all things germinate, the luxuriant midsummer, and the late autumn withered and withered. Spring flowers and summer leaves fall into the soil. Even if they rot and rot, they are not the opposite of life. Nourishment, just like the power of corruption that corresponds exactly to the power of gold, life is complete and fluid only when it goes round and round and round and round—and this, I think, is what is missing from the current golden law.”

"So," he said after taking a deep breath, "I intend to integrate the power of corruption into the law."

"Malenia is sitting on a huge and pure golden power, but it is like a deep pool of stagnant stasis. If her power and life can be fully flowed, even if the corruption cannot be eradicated, it will definitely be able to isolate the outside world." God's control, making it a force under her own control."

As soon as these words came out, Lucia felt a thunder in his heart, and the doubts of the past life and the clues of the present life were immediately connected in one place - why Mikaela's pure golden law can clearly isolate the interference of external gods, But it still failed to eradicate the power of corruption in Malenia's body; why the holy tree standing at the end of the world was born of the purest gold, but described as ugly and corrupt; With countless choices, he chose to follow an unknown blue-clothed swordsman to practice flowing swordsmanship.
Flowing water does not rot, and household hinges do not moth—so the so-called pure golden law is a fusion of gold and scarlet, life and corruption, an attempt to re-flow the decaying life that was originally stagnant in samsara?

However, in addition to the late autumn withered and withered, life should also have the cold winter when everything is dead.

He sensed the cold and ruthless power of death in his body. Since the Ring of Inception controlled by his mother collapsed during the Forbidden War, and the Ring of Elden controlled by Queen Malika became the new law of the junction, the "destiny" was missing. Death" part.

The sacred tree that Mikaela pursued all his life finally became a dream. Is it because his law lacks this key link?
