Chapter 78 The Concept of Gods
The muscles in the body are tensed in an instant, and the energy in the body has been stimulated to the maximum. This is not a sign of preparation, but a natural occurrence that a person produces at the most tense moments.
Shuer felt unprecedented tension. Even though he faced the gods in the past, he had never been under the pressure of such a blow. He immediately turned around and left. This was Shuer's first subconscious reaction. Fortunately, his rationality stopped his impulse in time, so he did not lose his composure on the spot.
It’s not that the silver dragon has any unfriendly manifestations, nor that the silver dragon exudes irresistible majesty. In fact, the silver dragon lies quietly on the ground without any abnormal performance. Even the aura is quite peaceful, and there is no such thing as a mighty person. I’m afraid that even an ordinary person can stand in front of him as if nothing is done if environmental factors are excluded.
But at the moment of seeing the silver dragon, Shur already understood that what he was in contact might not be the most important, but it was definitely one of the most secret secrets of Pavatiga, and it would even involve the origin of the gods. After knowing this secret, even dozens of giant dragons suddenly jumped out to kill him and silence him. Shur even suspected that Lord Anika was finally tired of cooperating with him and wanted him to disappear immediately, so that he would connect with him and the dragon clan, just to let him know this secret, and then use the dragon clan's hands to get rid of him.
Of course, this is just a random thought of making fun of suffering. Even if Anika wants to get rid of him, it will not be the present, let alone let Moria be involved. With Moria appearing, it means that there is no conspiracy at least from the perspective of Lord Anika. In fact, Shuer is also very clear that there is no conspiracy in the middle, otherwise there will be no secret news. He is so nervous in his heart, entirely because of Silver Dragon himself.
No wonder Golden Dragon Odin said that no other dragons had ever contacted Segras, no wonder he had to remind himself to be mentally prepared in advance, because the existence of the Silver Dragon itself is the biggest secret.
Shure shouldn't have seen the Silver Dragon, if he was really Segras.
The gods are high in the kingdom of God and hold the authority of the law. This is a fact that everyone in the world of Pavatiga knows, but if you think about the problem more deeply, what is the god and how it was born will probably filter out the vast majority of people who are insiders, and even many priests may not understand it.
In fact, gods are a condensation of concepts, and their existence itself represents the concept they symbolize, but is only personalized. This symbol is not transferred by how they were born. This is the case with the physical sun god Sur music goddess Diana, the symbolized goddess of wealth, the Lord of Justice, and the goddess of forest Anika Goddess of War Foggs, who was promoted from divine creatures.
When a god has enough faith to be born, concepts or rules will condense the will of the gods from the divine nature. This is the first step in the birth of the gods. Every god has experienced this process. The only difference is the source of will. The promotional god is formed by the original will as the main body, while the original gods appear out of thin air from the concept. This is the only difference, and the others are almost exactly the same.
After this, the divine body was naturally born.
The gods also have divine bodies. Almost while the conceptual nurturing the will of the gods, it will also give birth to the body of the gods, which is the sacred body in the usual sense. Well, it is the one that Lord Anika once tore apart. Because of the conceptual personality, the divine bodies are basically dominated by the image of humanoid creatures, of course, there are exceptions. For example, Lord Anika's image is the forest spirit, and Lord Avregan, the Lord of Fire, is a ball of fire element, while Lord Anika is more thorough, and is directly a huge rock.
But whether it is a humanoid creature or not, it is essentially the same, it is the embodiment of concepts, and concepts... cannot be observed, at least it cannot be observed by mortals, because mortals cannot understand what they see at all.
Yes, it is impossible to observe. Every night, you can see Lord Diana's bright figure and light dancing steps in the night sky, but what people see is only the silver moon, which is the original body before Lord Diana's deity, not the concept of silver moon, because the illusory concept cannot be observed.
Of course, there are precedents for mortals to observe gods. For example, in order to protect the budding intelligent creatures, Lord Wendy sat in the holy lake for ten thousand years, and many people have observed it. Of course, Lord Anika, who has carried refugees of all races in the fissure space as a entity for thousands of years, not only observed, but also touched. However, that is only what the gods show and want mortals to see or understand, not the real concept itself. If you forcefully want to observe the reality that is not displayed by the gods, it will be like the things that appeared on the display screen on the Brown Star Spaceship before, just a ball of incomprehensible light and shadow and lines.
Even so, even if the gods intentionally show the parts that mortals can understand in order to allow mortals to observe, they will still be greatly impacted in terms of their ability to accept, which will cause serious interference to the spirit of mortals. Short-term observation will make mortals quickly influenced by the gods and fall to the feet of the gods, while long-term observation will cause mortals to fall into madness because they are exposed to too many things that they cannot understand.
In the fissure space, Lord Anika can carry all races for thousands of years with his body. On the one hand, it is because the strength of those biological individuals is extremely strong, and on the other hand, it is because of the special nature of the fissure space. If it were Pavatiga, even the Void Eye, with the strongest will, may not be able to withstand the continuous observation of the sacred body for thousands of years. At that time, the Void Eye might become a crazy Void Eye.
Of course, Sul's will is not as good as the Eye of Void, and he knew that the gap was quite large, and it was even incomparable. If he was allowed to directly observe the body of the divine body in Pavatiga, his spirit would definitely bear a huge impact, and the impact would definitely conflict with his own power of faith, and then there would be a confrontation between the two gods. It was precisely in order to reduce the impact on mortals and avoid confrontation and conflict that the gods tried their best to avoid appearing in front of non-appointments.
For this reason, Shul was sure that he was definitely not Seglas's sacred body in front of him, because he had no sign of any impact. Since he was not the sacred body and he was Seglas, the only possibility was that this was his essence.
The gods born from entities are of course the entity they represent, and the gods promoted by divine creatures are naturally the divine creatures before the promotion. Of course, the gods born from symbols without entities have no entity and are not within the scope of consideration.
It is of course normal for the gods born in entities to see their bodies. People will see the tides rising and falling every day, which is not surprising at all, but for the gods who have been promoted to divine creatures, it is very strange to see their bodies, so strange that it is almost impossible.
Because their ontology should not exist at all, at least the conscious ontology should not exist.
Among the three types of gods, there are many precedents for divine creatures to be promoted to gods, such as the oldest Lin Jing Anika, and the oldest flame element creature, Lord Ovregan. Indeed, they all have their own body.
However, after being promoted to the gods, the will reshaped by the law was transferred to the divine body shaped at the same time, which was completely separated from the original body.
As for their bodies that originally belonged to the mortal world, if they were promoted to gods, the bodies of the mortal world would lose their lives and become holy bones, or be worshipped by believers, or eroded by time, and turned into dust in the world. Their vitality is different, and their vitality is far greater than that of ordinary creatures. Even if the spiritual body has been separated, the bodies of the mortal world can survive in an unconscious state for a long time. To this day, the bodies of the divine creatures of the mortal world have some certainty to die, but the bodies of most divine creatures and gods are still sleeping in a corner of the world.
But this kind of survival and sleeping are different from the understanding of mortals, and it is more like a dormant state without any consciousness. If it were Shuer's hometown, it means that it is in a vegetative state. This phenomenon occurs because of the essential difference between mortals and gods.
Yes, the boundary between gods and mortals is very strict. The body of the mortal world cannot bear the will of the gods. There is an essential difference between the two, even if it is just a trace of will. Therefore, once it is promoted to a god, it means that it will be completely separated from the body of the mortal world from then on. This is the limit of the law and no one can violate it.
Of course, some people have suspected that divine creatures can barely carry the will of the gods due to the particularity of their bodies, but because the body and will do not match, they will be greatly restricted, so no god is willing to do this. This statement has been circulated for a while, but it has never been proven, and there is no basis for it. It can only be called speculation. In addition, the gods have always maintained a disdainful attitude, and gradually faded and no longer mentioned.
Shur did not believe in this skepticism. In fact, the more the priests who are closely related to the gods, the less they believe in this argument. They have truly experienced the greatness of the gods and deeply realized the gap between the gods and ordinary things. In their opinion, perhaps other worlds, such as the desert world they experienced, will have special cases due to different rules, but at least under the rules of Pavatiga, it is impossible for the gods to have non-emotional connections with everything in the mortal world, otherwise they will not be able to truly transform into gods.
In order to satisfy his desire for knowledge, Shur even sought verification from both Lord Luna and Lord Anika during the boredom of traveling in the crack space. Both gods affirmed Shur's idea. Among them, Lord Anika himself is the god who was promoted to a divine creature and should have the most say.
But now it seems that everyone is wrong. Segris in front of him has used some method to retain the connection with the ontology and can continue to act with the ontology.
This means that he can act in the Pavadigafan world like an ordinary dragon without any restrictions, and at the same time, he also has the authority of the gods.
