Main God Creation Rules

Even today, the reverse flow of spiritual energy continues.

Even though the Five Elemental Pearls were combined with the knowledge of spirit arrays that the main god learned from World One to form the "Five Elemental Sealing Array," which was only a fleeting phenomenon in the records of the Divine Land, at most they could only confine them within a certain range, rather than reversing the flow of these spiritual energies back to their original world.

After initial confusion and exploration, Lin Yi gradually realized the reason.

In conclusion, the reason is not complicated; in fact, it is extremely simple.

When two separate lakes are connected by a "pipeline", the water in the lake with the higher water level will naturally flow towards the lake with the lower water level.

The difference between World Zero and World One right now is that low-water-level lake and high-water-level lake... no, it should be a dried-up lake and a nearly overflowing lake, and the "water flow" in them is naturally spiritual energy.

If the two are independent and do not interfere with each other, that would be fine. But if they are connected, the result will be like this: a large amount of spiritual energy will flow wildly from the spiritual energy world, which has become full of spiritual energy due to the fall of cultivators, to the world where there is no spiritual energy, assimilating the other world into a similar world in this primitive but extreme way.

If this situation is allowed to continue, even if the people of World Zero do nothing, they will naturally begin to accept and absorb the spiritual energy lingering in the air. This can be seen from the "cultivators" that have been appearing in City C for the past two weeks.

If they've achieved this without any cultivation techniques or conscious absorption of spiritual energy, then if someone were to give them even the most basic Qi refining method, the entire Zero World would likely be forcibly rerouted from a technological path to a future of immortals and heroes.

In any case, the strength of the individual is something that people can never refuse.

To prevent this situation from happening, Lin Yi took two actions. The first was to control and eliminate these passively generated "cultivators".

Lin Yi usually offers three options for these passive cultivators. The first option is to become a "cultivator" and then honestly continue to be an ordinary person and do nothing: neither try to leave City C, nor try to disclose information, nor be foolish enough to try to disrupt the existing order with this power.

Lin Yi chose to ignore this group of people.

“Once the spiritual energy disappears, they will naturally lose all their power and become a ‘resource’ again. I have always been tolerant of ‘resources’.”

The second type is those who become "immortal cultivators" and take action, but only to a certain extent. For example, the 147th individual was offered the option of joining the God Space by Lin Yi, but he refused.

Therefore, he was directly classified as the third type.

Every world and every era has no shortage of ambitious and impulsive people. They actively want to change things with their own hands, but they often only pursue immediate pleasure—the destruction that results—without ever considering what to do after the destruction.

Lin Yi's solution to these "ambitious individuals" is quite simple.

"Sorry, this world can't accommodate so much ambition."

—Clean up and remove.

After resolving the issue of "cultivators," the second problem Lin Yi dealt with was the spiritual energy that was constantly flowing backwards towards World Zero.

On the bright side, if the spiritual energy spread throughout the entire world instead of just one city, C, then the current concentration of spiritual energy wouldn't have been enough to create "cultivators" in such a short time. It would have taken at least several years to several decades to settle. However, by then, the entire world would be full of cultivators, and there would be no other way to expel the spiritual energy except by wiping out "humanity".

However, if the spiritual energy is confined to City C, in the short term, the highly concentrated spiritual energy will lead to the birth of a large number of "cultivators". But in the long run, even in the worst-case scenario, if two nuclear bombs are dropped on City C, more than 99% of humanity will still be able to "survive".

Based on this understanding, Lin Yi's final action was to use the Five Elemental Pearls to establish a massive spiritual energy sealing array in City C. Although it could not devour or push back the spiritual energy that had already surged out, it could confine it within this area of ​​City C to prevent it from flowing out.

Simply put, it means that in the two linked lakes, a separate "wall" is built inside the one with the lower water level. In this way, the water flowing in from the lake with the higher water level can only flow within this "wall" before overflowing or the pressure exceeds a certain level.

Meanwhile, the surrounding lakes remained dry.

Reversal of Spiritual Energy: Chapter 240 Reversal of Spiritual Energy (10)

The world doesn't stop turning because of anyone or anything, no matter how significant the event may be to some people.

For the people living in City C, this past month has probably been the most terrifying month of their lives. First, “terrorists” who were previously only seen in the news suddenly visited and attacked, causing huge riots and chaos, which were then suppressed.

Generally speaking, the incident should have ended at this point, but the situation in City C was more complicated than people imagined. The stationed troops not only did not withdraw, but instead intensified their efforts to capture the "fugitive" over the past month. Affected by this atmosphere, people were inevitably filled with anxiety. Of course, many residents who did not want to suffer undeserved disaster wanted to leave the city in danger ahead of time, but their requests to relocate were rejected without exception.

The government's explanation is quite reasonable: to prevent terrorists from taking the opportunity to escape.

On the surface, people attempting to leave City C were stopped, but secretly, many people still managed to smuggle their families through the mountains under the cover of darkness to bypass the blockade. The government didn't have much recourse against these people, as City C was neither too big nor too small and it was impossible to cover everything. Generally, as long as someone was confirmed not to be a "suspect," the government would turn a blind eye, since reducing the number of suspects would be beneficial for the subsequent investigation.

However, something completely unexpected happened.

----------segmentation----------

"Are you sure he killed him?"

"That's right, judging from the autopsy results, it's the same modus operandi as the 'magical girl' in City C, except the victim might be a bit special..."

"special?"

“We detected ‘spiritual energy’ fluctuations in him.”

"That is to say..."

Staring in astonishment at the corpse wrapped in a white sheet in the distance, the young man asked in surprise, "He's a 'psychic'?"

A month after the incident, the search for the truth has made significant progress.

The First People's Hospital of the city.

"...Based on this, we suspect that someone is secretly targeting these 'psychic' individuals, possibly because they are on the opposing side—"

"Wait! If it were the opposing camp, they would have made their move long ago. Why choose this particular time?"

The young man remained silent upon hearing this. From any perspective, killing someone now, with the entire city under martial law and the army blocking the way, would be the most foolish thing to do, even if the other party had no regard for the presence of the army. After all, doing so would easily attract attention from the outside world, which would contradict his usual style of doing things.

Based on this understanding, after overturning several explanations, the young man put forward another more acceptable statement: "The perpetrators had a reason to kill them, and it had to be done in City C!"

"This would explain the more than 300 murders that have occurred in City C over the past month... The criminals seek out psychics and keep them under control within City C. Once they receive information or a psychic tries to leave City C, they immediately kill them."

As he said this, the young man let out a long breath: "It's obvious that he has this ability. In the past month, he has killed more than 300 people right under our noses. Apart from eyewitness reports, we haven't been able to find a trace of him. As for those psychics, although the autopsies have confirmed that they have the same spiritual energy as the victims of the case a month ago, we haven't been able to contact a single living psychic so far."

As the conversation stalled, the atmosphere in the ward grew tense until Li Gao finished his cigarette: "...Notify the entire city of C."

"what?"

"Since we don't know how many psychics exist in City C, let's just let everyone know. Ordinary people might be confused, but those psychics will definitely understand their situation... As long as they know that someone is targeting them and that we are on their side, once these psychics realize that they can't stop that guy on their own, they will naturally seek help from the military."

The young man looked troubled upon hearing this: "But if we do this, then the news about the blockade will..."

“At this point, there are no other options. I know why the higher-ups put you in charge of this incident, but if you fail, it will probably look bad for you and the people behind you, right? Now you still have a chance. Do you want to give it your all, or do you want to slink back like this?”

After a long silence, the young man finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "I'll do it! But I need a day to prepare. Even if I release the information, I can't cause a large-scale disturbance. I will block all communication between City C and the outside world within a day, including transportation and the internet. This way, it will be easier to deal with after the case is over."

Li Gao nodded and said nothing more; the plan was thus finalized.

While the people on the mainland were making decisions in response to this event whose cause, process, and purpose were all unknown, Lin Yi, who was remotely controlling everything, also had to make a decision.

[...The spiritual energy intensity has increased by 208% compared to the same period last year, and it is expected to exceed the sealing limit in 48 hours.]

"..."

Staring blankly at the graph on his retina, he saw that in just thirty days, the spiritual energy in City C had increased from nothing to something, from negligible at the beginning to nearly a hundredfold increase, all of which was recorded on the graph.

Even at this point, the dozen or so "pillars of spiritual energy" scattered throughout City C still did not stop flowing spiritual energy back into the world. This has led to the number of "cultivators" appearing from just two twenty-one days ago to more than fifty today. It is conceivable that tomorrow there will be at least a hundred, then two hundred, four hundred, eight hundred... until the spiritual energy blockade completely collapses and the surging spiritual energy flows towards the whole world, it will not stop.

When that time really comes, Lin Yi will have no choice but to "extinct".

“...Every time I come into contact with 'you,' I have this thought: if even a fragment can do this much, what kind of existence must 'you' be when you are complete? And what kind of power could shatter and destroy 'you' to this extent?”

The presence in his mind did not react, and Lin Yi, who was already used to this, did not care: "Detonate the spirit array."

[Command confirmed, countdown: 47 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds]

Reversal of Spiritual Energy: Chapter 241 Reversal of Spiritual Energy (11)

Highly developed technology has endowed people with equally remarkable efficiency in both creation and destruction.

In less than 24 hours, all communication between the city of C and the outside world was cut off, with only internal communications via military satellites remaining intact. Just as people were panicking about this unusual situation, a strange message began to spread throughout the city of C.

Are you sure they can understand what we're trying to convey?

"We don't require everyone to accept it; it's enough if just one person steps forward and provides the intelligence we need."

Li Gao opened his mouth, but ultimately couldn't say anything, leaning on his cane, and simply waited for the "psychic" who was about to appear.

Naturally, Lin Yi had no reason to ignore such a major anomaly occurring within the spiritual energy-sealed zone. He noticed it almost immediately after people severed their connection to the outside world, but the latter simply did not take any action.

"Even ants have the will to survive, let alone humans... Keep struggling, and perhaps you can create a tiny 'miracle'."

So easily they turned their attention back, letting the underlying issues continue to fester.

----------segmentation----------

It went more smoothly than expected, but it was also much worse. The situation that the military anticipated—that the "prisoner" would appear and obstruct them—did not occur. They easily made contact with the first living "psychic." However, it was precisely because of the other party's silence that many psychics hiding in City C did not believe their explanations immediately. It was not until twelve hours later that the first target began to make tentative contact.

With only one non-professional on one side and a complete counter-reconnaissance system and command on the other, the military located the target almost as soon as the first message was sent. They then immediately dispatched troops to surround the other side. After realizing that it was impossible to fight back with violence, the "psychic" simply raised his hands and ran out.

"I surrender! I'll tell you anything—please don't shoot!"

Now that the breakthrough point has been found, the subsequent developments are a natural progression.

"My name is Li Nian, I'm a second-year high school student, I don't have a girlfriend, and my grades are—"

群迩笼⑻吴澪鸠⒊轳jiu“停停停。

Li Gao quickly stopped the "psychic" in front of him who was "talking nonsense" because of his own indifference, and said with a bit of a pain in his teeth, "I didn't ask you those questions. You just need to answer our two questions."

"Then can I go home?"

Faced with Li Nian's pleading gaze, Li Gao had no choice but to turn his eyes away: "That depends on your attitude."

"I said, I said anything!"

"First of all, when did you awaken... and sense spiritual energy?"

Having discovered a "chance to survive," Li Nian quickly replied, "Two weeks ago at noon! I was online when I saw someone say that superpowers had appeared in City C, so I wondered if I also had a chance to become a superpowered person, and then I felt those things... Is this called spiritual energy?"

Looking in the direction Li Nian was pointing, Li Gao was certain he didn't see anything—except for the sky above his head.

"I'm asking you, not the other way around. Go on... Have you found anyone like you?"

"If you're talking about 'ability users,' there should be quite a few in City C besides me, but it seems that a large portion of them are no longer online."

With a sudden jolt of anxiety, Li Gao quickly pressed, "Was it done by the 'magical girl'?"

“Magical Girl… I’ve heard of her from them. It seems like everyone who had contact with her has disappeared, so many people are afraid to see her, although there are also rumors that she’s just a very cute little girl.”

"You haven't seen her?"

Li Nian replied without hesitation, "I'm too busy hiding to even see her!"

He exchanged a glance with the young man beside him who had been taking notes, and was about to show a helpless expression when he suddenly heard Li Nian's hesitant voice: "However... I've only heard of it. 'Magical Girl' doesn't act alone."

"—!"

Unlike the young man who showed surprise, Li Gao stepped forward and lowered his voice: "Tell me everything you know!"

“Ah, okay… Some people say that ‘magical girl’ is related to the ‘martial arts master’ of the Golden Dragon Hotel more than ten years ago. At that time, someone witnessed the ‘martial arts master’ and ‘magical girl’ talking. They thought it was cosplay or something and didn’t pay attention. But then this happened, and he himself awakened to become a ‘psychic’, so he remembered it.”

"what else?!"

"And...and...that's right! They're still in City C—"

This time, it wasn't Li Gao who interrupted, but the young man who had been beside him the whole time. He grabbed Li Nian's shoulder and growled, "Where are they?!"

"It hurts! Someone said they saw it from the tallest TV tower. Let go, it hurts a lot."

No one paid any attention to the complaints behind them. Li Gao and the young man exchanged a glance, both seeing the will in each other's eyes.

"Call the first, third, fourth, and fifth squads to quickly surround the TV tower."

"The second detachment will disperse personnel within a 5-10 kilometer radius of the TV tower; no one is permitted to approach."

"Requesting the deployment of special response forces; we need to ensure air communication."

"Requesting the deployment of BeiDou-3 satellites for comprehensive monitoring of City C. We have located the target..."

……

"Who cares if he's some kind of 'martial arts master'? Even if he grew wings, he wouldn't be able to escape from City C!"

----------segmentation----------

It was a little unexpected.

The gaze shifted to the distance, where the swirling spiritual energy in the air emitted dazzling colors. The distinctive hum of an engine reached the ears, and at the same time, the television tower beneath their feet began to tremble slightly. All of this indicated that something was approaching, and in considerable numbers...

"Time really flies."

When you get used to judging the world with the methods and understanding from more than a decade ago, the changes in the world have quietly exceeded your expectations. On one hand, it may seem that you have abandoned the world, but on the other hand, it may also mean that the world has abandoned you, who no longer exists in this world, and is carrying all the lives that are still contained within it as it moves forward...

"I couldn't change you before, so I could only adapt to your changes, but now..."

The closed left eye slowly opened, and in the intersection of red and green, the distorted scene before it was reflected: "It's you who has come to adapt to me."
