Chapter 552: The World About to Die
More than an hour had passed when Lin You left the military base.
Thanks to Jiang Zhenhua's patient explanation, he finally gained a comprehensive understanding of this world.
Overall.
There is actually not much difference between the living world and their realm of all races, except for the different rules.
If there is a difference, it should be the overall structure of the living world.
Unlike the realm of all races, the living world was actually only a very small space when the myriad worlds were first created.
But as more and more universes collapsed and more and more people were teleported over, changes began to occur.
Basically, every time a world collapses, the living world will also open up a new space next to the place of origin to accommodate the young, the old and the weak from that world, and even transfer all the environments they previously lived in.
For example, the Yancheng city in front of us appeared here because of this situation.
This also caused the living world to continue to expand outward, and the spatial scope to continue to expand, eventually becoming large enough to connect with the realm of all races, squeezing out a spatial channel.
Like the world where Lin You was before, it was destroyed relatively late, only about two years ago, so it was at the very edge of the living world, and the highest level was only level ten.
The closer to the center of the realm, the earlier those people will arrive and the stronger they will be.
It can even be traced back to ten thousand years ago, when the first group of people who descended gave birth to many emperor-level figures.
And the place of origin in the center of the realm.
It is called the place of origin of the world by people in the living world.
"If you want to find the seed of the world, it is very likely inside the place of origin." Jiang Zhenhua, who came specially to see him off, said to Lin You on the city wall.
"The place of origin?" Lin You murmured to himself, and couldn't help but glance at the depths of the realm, then retracted his gaze, "Okay, thank you for telling me."
In this way.
He finally determined the purpose of this trip.
Without saying anything more, he and Jiang Zhenhua said goodbye to each other on the city wall.
However, they did not notice that at this moment, a genetic team was quietly watching them next to a building below.
"Do you think that person looks like our colleague Lin You in the company?" a pretty girl whispered.
"How is that possible? You're overthinking it. He's a big shot that even the commander-in-chief has to see him off in person." Someone immediately retorted.
"That's right, you must be dazzled. You've never even looked at him straight in the eye before, so how can you still remember his appearance?"
"Don't look at it anymore. Let's get going quickly. Maybe we can get some more supplies while the zombie tide recedes."
With that, several people left the building and walked towards the elevator at the entrance of the base.
The girl silently looked at Lin You on the city wall for a while, and finally withdrew her gaze, quickly followed the team, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Well, it's time for me to leave too. We'll meet again if we're lucky."
On the city wall.
After saying goodbye to Jiang Zhenhua, Lin You did not stay any longer. He rode on the Emerald Dragon King and flew high into the sky, heading towards the depths of Yancheng.
He planned to take another look at his original residence before leaving, as a way of reminiscing about it.
So soon, he flew over the heads of the genetic teams that were out there and disappeared into an abandoned building in the blink of an eye.
But unfortunately.
When he arrived at the neighborhood where he used to live, the entire neighborhood had already changed beyond recognition and turned into ruins.
"Is that so?"
Lin You looked down at the ruins in front of him and the familiar environment around him, his eyes calm, yet a little dazed.
He stood there in a daze for a long time, then finally turned around and flew away from Yancheng, speeding towards the center of the realm.
According to Jiang Zhenhua's description, the living world is much larger than other realms.
However, since it is a realm of the same level as the Ten Thousand Worlds, it is estimated that it will not be too exaggerated.
With his current speed of a tenth-level emerald green dragon, which is several thousand kilometers per hour, he should be able to reach the center of the realm in a few days.
The only thing that worried him was the other lords who entered the living world through the ladder.
As time goes by, more and more people will surely enter the living world.
Whether it is searching for relatives or fighting for the seed of the world, it will definitely bring about tremendous changes to this realm.
In particular, he came to a conclusion along the way, that is, the lord who enters the gate of the living world will be teleported to the area of the world he originally belonged to.
That is to say.
Some people will be teleported directly to a place close to the center of the realm, gaining an advantage from the beginning.
"It seems we have to hurry up."
Sitting on the back of the Emerald Dragon King, Lin You had a solemn expression.
By obtaining the Seed of the World, you can gain the power to control some of the rules of this world.
Although he didn't think he could snatch such a thing from those emperors, his intuition told him that he should go and take a look.
Even if I can't get that thing, it would be good enough to explore some secrets behind the myriad worlds. Maybe there will be some other gains in that "place of origin".
Thinking of this, he ordered the Emerald Dragon King under him to speed up, turning into a residual shadow and flying into the sky. After a while, he left Yan Cheng far behind.
In a blink of an eye.
Three days passed.
After this period of settling down, more and more lords successfully climbed to the top of the ladder and passed through the gate of the living world to enter the living world.
It also makes the entire living world become lively and chaotic.
As soon as many people were teleported here, they excitedly began to look for their relatives everywhere, while others rushed directly to the center of the realm to gather information.
With more people, conflicts will naturally increase.
Frictions and battles began to occur frequently between the Lords of All Worlds and the genetically-powered people of the living world.
Then they discovered that the individual explosive power of genetic mutants was obviously stronger than that of leaders of the same level.
The lord relied on the help of his troops to narrow the gap, but in the end no one could do anything to anyone.
Moreover, due to the inconsistent rules, the lords did not gain any resources by killing the zombies here, which also shifted many people's attention to the Seed of the World.
You know.
That is a world-class treasure that can make a person soar to the sky.
Anyone who has enough strength to cross the realm or teleport to the vicinity of the center of the realm will rush to the center of the realm to find the location of the origin.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
And at this time.
After three days and three nights of sleepless travel, Lin You has arrived near the center of the realm.
Along the way, he crossed many different ethnic areas.
The forests of the elves, the oceans of the sea clan, the swarms of the Zerg, and the tribes of the Orcs are all relatively common.
But the living areas of rare races like the Eldar, Behemoths and Titans opened his eyes, as if they had opened the door to a new world.
However, as he went deeper, danger also came.
While on the way, Lin You sensed the aura of level eleven or above more than once. If he hadn't run fast and the other party hadn't had any intention of attacking, he might not have been able to arrive here safely.
Fortunately, the imagined accident did not happen.
When he crossed the last plain, a grand scene appeared before his eyes.
“That is.”
Lin You, who was originally drowsy, suddenly widened his eyes and looked at a huge ancient tree towering into the sky in the distance.
It was the first time he had seen such a huge ancient tree.
It seems as if it holds up the entire world, standing proudly between heaven and earth, and its outstretched branches and leaves are like a giant umbrella, almost covering the entire center of the world.
And on the tree trunks that were like flat ground, cities were vaguely visible, extending from the plains below to the top of the invisible treetops.
The surroundings were shrouded in clouds and mist, and the air was filled with an extremely strong breath of life.
A tree is a world.
This is a real world tree!
In front of it, Lin You felt as small as an ant, insignificant.
But what surprised him was that
At this moment, the World Tree exuded a hint of dusk, forming two extremes with the breath of life around it.
Just like an old man approaching his twilight years, most of the leaves on the branches have fallen off, leaving only the treetops still barely lush.
This is a dying world tree! "Master, I can hear his painful cries."
At this time, Ling Xi suddenly appeared beside Lin You and whispered.
"It seems like he can no longer support this world."
This was the first time Lingxi showed a sad expression since she awakened her spiritual intelligence, as if she could truly understand the pain that the World Tree was experiencing.
"Can you feel it?" Lin You turned back in surprise.
"Yes." Ling Xi nodded gently, "We, the flower spirits, are the protectors of all plants and can feel their emotions."
"So that's how it is." Lin You's face suddenly understood. No wonder the closer he got to the center of the world, the more restless the Emerald Dragon King under him became.
Obviously, he also felt the breath of the World Tree.
Just thinking about it.
Several figures riding flying mounts suddenly appeared and flew past him towards the World Tree.
"Lord!" Lin You was shocked. He didn't expect that other lords would arrive here so soon. He quickly said to Ling Xi beside him, "Let's go and take a look at the situation first."
After saying that, he suddenly accelerated and followed behind those lords.
At this moment, he has basically confirmed that this world tree that supports the heaven and earth is the center of the entire living world.
If you want to find the place of origin, you have to go to that city to get information.
And just as he and those lords were rushing towards the World Tree.
From all directions of the living world, more and more lords began to discover this place and rushed here quickly from various places.
Even the native genetically-powered strong men in the living world seemed to have been summoned and gathered together.
On the plain where the World Tree is located, people hurrying on the road can be seen everywhere, which looks extremely spectacular.
"The World Tree is dying, and a new cycle is finally about to begin."
In a magnificent building on the crown of the World Tree, a white-haired old man stood at the highest point, looking at the figures gathering from all directions and let out a long sigh.
“I wonder who will start this butcher knife that destroys everything this time.”
