It was probably at that time that Gao Ge and Mao Ge acquired divinity.

However, Nurgle, the father of the four evil gods, did not die. The four evil gods of the crystal wall system are a little different from other gods of the crystal wall system. They are more of conceptual gods and have different names in different civilizations. They are not the promotion of a certain life form, but a combination of thoughts and desires. Even if the bodies they descended into are killed, they can be resurrected soon.

But these problems are actually not big.

What really made Su Ziyu feel scalp-tingling was another thing. He discovered that the empire's spiritual power had once ascended, and it was actually a horrible trap!

Or rather.

The [Psychic Ascension] technology tree that the ancient lost empire obtained was itself a terrible bait!

The empire's original psychic ascension was directed to four contracts in the virtual world, which are [Whisper of the Void], [Thirst of Instruments], [Threads of Life] and [Ghoul of the World]. In addition, there is another contract, the legendary [End of Reincarnation], a contract that the ancient lost empire marked as absolutely not to be signed, because it is said that it will bring about the great terror outside this universe.

Of course, racial ascension must come at a certain price.

Whether it is psychic ascension, mechanical ascension, or genetic ascension, these ascension routes have certain costs. Only by successfully overcoming the negative BUFF of ascension can a race truly achieve a racial leap.

The virtual world contract that the empire originally signed was [Whisper of the Void].

Su Ziyu didn't know the content of this contract before, but after he connected to the gate to the virtual world, he learned some of the contents of the contract.

The content of the contract is very simple. The virtual being who drafted this contract will teach the secret knowledge of the whispering of the mind to the psychics of the Empire, and help them study the ultimate secrets of psychic energy. This blessing will allow any psychic of the Empire to have a strong innate psychic talent, and make great progress in the study of psychic energy, and can easily influence others through psychic energy. During the War in Heaven, the Eldar had similar talents. Their people were powerful psychics as long as they were born, and the same was true for newborns born when the Empire just ascended.

But as a price, the virtual existence requires that [we agree to let them enter our consciousness].

The Empire eventually signed the contract.

At the moment the contract was completed, a void mark was left on the planet's gate to the void, and on this mark Su Ziyu felt the aura of an evil god similar to that of his kind father - Nurgle.

Soon after the signing of [Whisper of the Void], deadly whispers of the mind broke out on the planet. Subsequently, the aristocracy of the empire began to corrupt rapidly. The most corrupt was the emperor of the empire. He went crazy and turned into a moving natural disaster.

Very interesting point.

The reason why Su Ziyu was targeted by the evil god was because he killed the empire's once mad emperor, the moving disaster who had degenerated into an ancient evil creature.

This is no coincidence.

It was not that the energy emitted by him when he activated the godhood attracted the evil god in the void, but that the evil god in the void had already corroded and corrupted this place, and left one of his chess pieces, an eye, here. When the eye of this chess piece was wiped out by Su Ziyu, the evil god from the void decisively activated some kind of ability, directly locking the space-time monitor system, and further triggered the warning measures of the space-time monitor system, causing the activation of the 'Hourglass of Time', and sending a distress signal to the unknown 'Space-Time Hub', summoning the unknown [Space-Time Guardian] and [Time Dragon].

This should be some kind of self-rescue program that has been set up a long time ago. When certain mechanisms are triggered, the Hourglass of Time will directly contact the Space-Time Center.

As for why they contacted the Space-Time Central Hub at this time, Su Ziyu guessed that some major changes might have occurred in the Space-Time Central Hub, and the Space-Time Monitor System could only use it as a last resort for self-preservation.

The context of everything gradually became clear.

The virtual world contract signed by Psychic Ascension actually contains powers similar to those of the Four Evil Gods.

This discovery was so terrifying that Su Ziyu felt terrified. When he thought about it, he realized that Goge and Maoge became gods of the Orcs after eating the corpse of their father Nurgle. The association he made in an instant made his scalp tingle.

There is a huge prehistoric pit here.

Moreover, this pit was most likely dug shortly after the end of the War in Heaven, because the three major routes for racial ascension only appeared after the end of the War in Heaven.

Psychic Ascension points to the Eldar in the War in Heaven.

The Ascension of the Machines points to the Necrons in the War in Heaven.

Genetic Ascension points to the green-skinned giants in the War in Heaven.

Let's talk about the Necrons first. After the War in Heaven, the Necrons entered the Silent Tomb and no one knows when they will wake up again. At least they have not been seen in the past tens of thousands of years. Then there are the Green Giants. After the demise of the Old Ones, the Green Giants seem to have degenerated. At present, the only ones who are close to the original Green Giants are probably Goge and Maoge.

Here comes the point.

After the War in Heaven, the Eldar did not perish immediately. On the contrary, they had a period of prosperity, until they became corrupt and fell into war with the Greenskins, which directly destroyed the destiny of the entire race.

The fall of the Eldar originated from a civilizational catastrophe recorded in an ancient epic called the Fall of the Eldar.

Currently, Su Ziyu is in a state of near omniscience, and among the information he can read, there are some clues pointing to the mastermind behind the scenes.

Clue one: The fall of the Eldar is closely related to Slaanesh, one of the four evil gods and the youngest of them.

The Eldar are emotionally rich and highly intelligent. They like to pursue pleasure, art and sensory stimulation in life. One day, a strange disease suddenly began to spread among their tribe. Hysteria, insanity and other mental illnesses began to affect the entire Eldar. Some Eldar began to succumb to their pleasure impact. They worshiped strange rituals to gain new experiences, mysterious knowledge and sensory stimulation. As these rituals increased, the social structure of the Eldar began to split.

Extreme hedonism began to spread among the Eldar.

The same was true after the empire's psychic ascension. The empire's nobles were extremely extravagant and hedonistic, pursuing sensory stimulation and indulgent depravity. The speed of the aristocracy's corruption was almost staggering, and most of the empire's nobles were abolished overnight.

The chaotic void is actually a gathering place for the energy of thought.

The inhabitants there are spiritual energy bodies produced by thoughts and emotions, and these thoughts and emotions will not die. They exist forever, so similar thoughts and emotions are aggregated together for a long time, allowing them to continuously devour and evolve, and they continue to grow and become stronger.

Eventually, the single consciousness in the Chaos Void became so powerful that it gained self-awareness and became a being similar to a demon or god. These demonic entities are called Chaos Powers.

The four most powerful powers [Laws] are Khorne, the god of war, blood, and rage; Tzeentch, the god of change, conspiracy and trickery; Nurgle, the god of plague and disease; and finally Slaanesh, the god of pleasure and lust.

Among them, Seraph is particularly related to the Eldar, as he was born out of their final fall.

Before this, Slaanesh was just one of the powers that continued to grow in Chaos, without a complete consciousness.

Clue 2: When the Eldar fell, they actually had a huge internal split. Some of the Eldar could not stand hedonism and decided to go to other planets to explore and rebuild a new Eldar society. But they did not expect that they had not completed their plan before they went to war with the Greenskins for some reason. The Greenskins invaded the star system where the Eldar lived and defeated the Eldar who were not corrupted by hedonism.

Clue three: there are four contracts for psychic ascension, and there are exactly four evil gods in the void.

"Gao and Mao have eaten the corpse of the evil god Nurgle."

"The destruction of the Eldar led to the full resurgence of Slaanesh."

“Fuck!”

"These four contracts for spiritual ascension are clearly a huge pit dug in prehistoric times!" Su Ziyu couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Unless you skip these four virtual world contracts, otherwise, no matter which contract you sign, you may end up falling into the trap of a certain evil god."

"No wonder I've never heard of any civilization that succeeded in spiritual ascension!"

In theory.

If a certain race completes true psychic ascension, their racial value, that is, racial talent, will be elevated to the level of the Eldar during the War in Heaven, which means dominating nearly one-third of the Milky Way.

As for why the greenskins who appeared here were corrupted by Nurgle.

Su Ziyu guessed that this might be related to the fact that Nurgle, the Father, was the oldest evil god, and the other three evil gods were born much later than him. It might also be that Nurgle had fought with the monitors and guardians of the Space-Time Centrality before, and after realizing the existence of the Space-Time Monitor System, he immediately and decisively took action.

"It is very likely that the Four Evil Gods set a trap to harvest the psychic civilization of the Milky Way!"

"They are mysterious beings disguised as virtual beings."

"After the War in Heaven, other civilized races were constantly forced to embark on the path of psychic ascension, and the four contracts of the virtual world were used to harvest and control them."

"The emperor of the empire who once degenerated into an ancient evil is most likely the fruit that has yet to be harvested."

"It's because I killed it in advance."

"Only then will those evil gods notice my existence and lock onto the aura of the Hourglass of Time."

When he thought of this, Su Ziyu felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart. He knew that he had to make a quick decision because the real mastermind behind the scenes had not yet appeared. What appeared before him were just their pawns. They might also be testing to know whether Su Ziyu was the only time and space monitor, or whether the group of guardians in the time and space center had returned again.

If it is the latter, then the ascension trap they set up may not last long, because the guardians of time and space will never tolerate civilization being harvested like this.
