Chapter 144
Before my eyes was a barren wasteland. After countless years of war, disaster, plague and famine, most of the life had died. Only snakes, insects, rats and ants were left alive in every corner of the planet, feeding on the bodies of dead creatures.
The thick resentment that was almost blinding formed a long-lasting red mist that permeated every corner of the planet and continued to spread towards the pure earth and sky.
Even demons could not survive in such a harsh environment.
Su Ci was suspended in mid-air, his expression indifferent.
He had just woken up from a deep sleep, his slightly curly golden hair was scattered and fluttering in the wind, and his beautiful eyes changed between light gold and blood red.
The planet was eroded by resentment, and the spirit of the earth was not spared.
However, the young man's expression was so calm.
After waking up and facing such a mess, he was a little surprised at the beginning, but soon calmed down and accepted it all very calmly.
He had lived for too long, and everything in the world made him feel boring. He was also tired of the rise and fall of things and the encounters and partings brought about by them.
Therefore, he fell into sleep more and more, killing time in sleep.
But he did not expect that this time, the creatures on the earth would bring such a large-scale disaster, not only destroying his country and race, but also implicated him while he was sleeping.
If he didn't think of a way out, then after the resentment swallowed him, he would move towards the endless void, and he would be controlled by the resentment and could not help himself.
No matter how disgusted he was with the world, this was a result that Su Ci could not tolerate.
So, he still chose to take action.
Dazzling golden light emerged from his body, and his red sleeves rustled in the wind.
Even someone as strong as Su Ci could not deal with such a large-scale resentment.
So, he endured the pain that was like gnawing at his bones and heart, and personally peeled off the part of his soul that was contaminated by the resentment. He used this part of his soul as a sacrifice and performed the most powerful sealing technique since the formation of the world.
The wind and clouds rose between the world, and as Su Ci's soul fell into the earth, the resentment and resentful spirits that filled the entire world were all absorbed into the earth and completely sealed.
The whole world was cleared.
However, as the resentment merged into the earth, the little life on the planet that was already left was also rapidly withering and dying, and finally fell into a dead silence.
This planet has become a dead star.
The young man with his golden pupils restored slowly opened his eyes, and his beautiful, bright golden hair had turned completely silver.
With only a remnant of his soul left, he was like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.
This was the first time that Su Ci was so close to death.
As the spirit of the earth, if he had enough will to survive, he might still be able to exist and wait until the day when the earth revives, but...
he has lived too long.
He found the originally vibrant world boring, not to mention that now, he is the only one left in the world?
Death, perhaps, is the best destination.
His figure gradually faded, but a smile slowly emerged on his face, as if he saw his "old friends" who had left many years ago. Only when
the gods are ruthless can they last forever with the heaven and earth.
Unfortunately, he could not be a real god after all...
Su Ci looked at the sky. The only regret in this life was probably that he had never been to the sky to take a look.
But now, it doesn't matter anymore.
He stood quietly in the air, waiting for eternal sleep, but before his consciousness dissipated, the void in front of him suddenly changed.
A vortex slowly appeared, and a platinum-gold light lit up. From the slow rotation at the beginning, to the gradual acceleration, and finally turned into a small platinum-gold light ball.
Su Ci looked at this scene and couldn't help but be stunned.
The platinum-gold ball of light flew in front of him anxiously, full of anxious emotional fluctuations, as if it was stumbling towards him.
This ball of light... was actually a newborn spirit.
"Are you... Tiandao?"
Su Ci couldn't help but sigh, "Your luck is not very good to become a spirit at this time."
It is very difficult for dead things to become spirits, especially for the ethereal Tiandao, which is the embodiment of rules and does not even have a concrete form.
Over the long years, Su Ci had also been looking forward to whether Tiandao would become a spirit one day.
If Tiandao becomes a spirit, perhaps He will have the hope of becoming a truly ruthless god? After all, Tiandao is an absolutely rational existence and should not be bound by shackles like him.
It was just that kind of expectation that was gradually forgotten over the long years, and finally Su Ci had to admit that the possibility of Tiandao becoming a spirit was very small.
However, today, when the earth was dead silent and about to fall into eternal sleep, Tiandao finally woke up and came to him.
Su Ci felt complicated for a moment, but he did not think of surviving.
He was really tired and now just wanted to sleep forever.
"No!"
"Su, please don't die!"
The small ball of light began to stretch and turned into a human figure. It was a young man with childish features, platinum-colored hair, and an earnest pleading on his handsome face.
Su Ci looked at him calmly.
His real name was just a single word, "Su".
Among the ancient practitioners, no one would use his real name to walk the world, as it would be easy to be targeted by the enemy, so he followed the crowd and added a word after "Su".
How could this kid...
Thinking that he was a spirit from heaven, Su Ci felt relieved.
"Sorry..."
Before Su Ci finished speaking, he saw the strange young man in front of him suddenly showed him a slightly sad smile, and then his new spiritual body burst into a dazzling light.
His expression gradually became shy.
"In the name of rules, I dedicate all my strength to rewrite the rules--"
He began to chant, his platinum eyes staring deeply at Su Ci, his eyes were full of unspeakable emotions, and in the end, all the sorrow turned into blessings.
"From this moment on, the spirit of the earth will no longer be bound by the earth, he can go wherever he wants!"
With a roar, the rules that had long bound the spirit of the earth were completely shattered after his voice fell.
Su Ci's face was full of disbelief.
He can go wherever he wants... He stared at the young man blankly.
After sacrificing all his strength, the spirit body that the young man had just formed began to become illusory, and the vitality was slowly dissipating.
Su Ci knew clearly how much it would cost to rewrite this rule!
"Su, you are free." The young man smiled at him.
"Why are you doing this?" Su Ci was puzzled.
"Tianwaitian, don't you want to go out and take a look?" The young man who was disappearing had a smile on his face.
Su Ci frowned, feeling unhappy because his thoughts were being peeped into.
"Don't be angry..."
"Actually, I've been watching you, although you don't know, but..."
The young man stretched out his hand and carefully touched Su Ci's cheek. Seeing that Su Ci did not dodge, he held Su Ci's face with both hands, and then -
in Su Ci's surprised eyes, he gently kissed his lips.
The two people's lips touched lightly, and before Su Ci could react, the young man's figure turned into dots of platinum light.
His last words echoed between heaven and earth.
"If we can meet again in the future, can you give me a chance?"
Those passionate words full of true love filled the entire void and disappeared for a long time.
Only at this time did Su Ci come back to his senses.
The slender white fingertips touched his lips lightly. The kiss just now came too suddenly... He raised his eyes and looked at the world where he was left alone. Everything just now seemed to be just an illusion.
But the rules that had changed told him that it was indeed what happened.
After a long time, Su Ci put down his hand.
He looked at the sky, at the Heavenly Dao that had fallen into a deep sleep, and murmured: "You should at least tell me your name..."
The last syllable turned into a sigh.
Su Ci looked up at the brilliant starry sky above his head. His weak soul no longer faded, but turned into a golden ball of light, flying into the depths of the universe.
This freedom was indeed what he longed for.
He wanted to see the world beyond the sky!
With the departure of the spirit of the earth, the planet fell into complete silence.
As time passed and the stars moved, traces of life gradually appeared on the earth. At the same time, the resentment sealed in the land also gave birth to intelligence in the passage of time.
The resentful spirits impacted the seal day and night, and finally one day, the seal loosened, and a large number of resentful spirits escaped from the land.
They wandered on the earth, and the resentment they created once again swept the entire planet.
This was also the day when the humans in the Hell Star Base discovered the arrival of the red mist.
If the red mist is allowed to develop, all 36 bases on Hell Star will be destroyed in the red mist, and the terrible resentment will also advance into the universe, devouring more lives.
Fortunately, the Spirit of Rules reappeared on the earth at this critical moment.
Unfortunately, his power did not recover much, and in the end he could only confine the red mist to this planet, and set up new rules to erect a protective barrier for the human base, and he himself hid in the human base...
Until today, the rules were broken, and he was discovered and captured here by the Spirit of Resentment.
In the sealed space, Su Ci gently took off the mask.
As the memories mentioned in the mask returned, he remembered everything that happened after he left the planet.
He wandered in the universe for countless years, constantly absorbing energy from the universe to restore his weak spirit. After an unknown amount of time, he finally got tired of this wandering life.
The larger and more beautiful the universe became, the more deeply he felt lonely.
Su Ci considered self-destruction again, but whenever he thought of the Heavenly Dao that sacrificed all its power for him, he gave up the idea.
Finally, under the guidance of a familiar breath, he settled down on a planet and became a real human being - he locked all his memories deep in his soul.
It was not until he returned to this planet that his old memories were awakened again, but the memory was too huge and directly destroyed his personality formed as a human being, so when he woke up on the spaceship, he forgot everything.
Of course, the knowledge learned will not be forgotten, so those common sense will emerge in his mind.
Su Ci looked at Zhou Yan, and his expression inevitably became complicated.
