Not an illusion, not an illusion.

There is no possibility of error in Joshua's perception.

As an existence that fought and defeated the extreme sublimation aggregate, Joshua gained a lot in that fierce battle. Whether it was the degree of use of various extraordinary powers or the deduction of timing and future possibilities, he was tempered to a complete state in high-intensity confrontation, and everything reached perfection.

Nowadays, no matter what power it is, whether it is spiritual energy, magic power, life energy, elements, ether, holy light and shadow, all the extraordinary powers that exist are mastered by today's warriors. What he most often uses is the power of steel derived from life energy. This is indeed true, but this does not mean that he can only use the power of steel. Now Joshua can be said to be a master of the entire system, and he can easily cast spells or holy light.

Even the divine power is the same, and the power of shadow is naturally among them. His sensitivity to perceptions of these powers can definitely rank among the top ten in the entire multiverse.

As the individual who benefited the most in the battle with the Near Saints, Joshua was able to control the power of the Steel Python Star in that battle, received absolute data support from the triple curtain, received assistance from many lives and civilizations in the entire multi-galaxy, and even received the information given by the ultimate sublimation aggregate in the end. If there is really something like "experience" in this world, then the battle in the star world is undoubtedly one of the largest experience packages in the entire multi-universe, and is probably inferior to the rich evil gods.

With so much tempering and assistance, no one can make progress. Even a bacteria should be the prototype of an extreme sublimation aggregate at this time. Joshua is naturally no exception. He felt that he had taken a big step on the road to the extreme of legends before he reached the world of stars. Although he had not yet reached the level of a saint, at least, he had already cleared away a lot of fog.

Especially in the world of stars, he spread his own emotional power system. By collecting information similar to the sages creating new extraordinary power actions, the previous hazy path of advancement has become much clearer, and he can even touch the threshold of the saint.

"I can achieve even those who are close to the saints."

This is the fact that what Joshua is missing now is just accumulation and time. He can be 100% sure that in the near future, he can quickly catch up with the realm of the extreme sublimation aggregate and become a new generation of close saints.

"And life like the Silver Fairy and the First One is similar to the extreme life at the extreme sublimation aggregate. However, their corresponding extraordinary power is the 'power of steel', and the unique power of the extreme sublimation aggregate itself is probably the power to create an absolute self-world by simulating the initial fire..."

To be honest, the help that the extreme sublimation aggregate brings to Joshua is as great as the threat it brings. Not to mention anything else, this new way of sage alone is a great gain. As a "world life body" that is extremely similar to the other party, Joshua can naturally continue the path of the extreme sublimation aggregate. As long as he can condense things similar to the initial fire in his body like the other party, he can immediately become a close saint.

This path is completely opposite to the "sage" who creates memes and concepts, covering the multiverse with new extraordinary powers and constants... If you look at it this way, these are actually two completely different sage-level systems.

Joshua's silence in recent times is deducing relevant information and drawing useful knowledge and information to him.

But now, this kind of thinking may have to be paused for a while.

Because in the distance, the endless power of shadows and the vast momentum that ordinary people cannot imagine, they go back toward the torrent of the multiverse demon tide.

Just a moment of thinking, I had no time to hesitate, analyze, deduce and consider, and I had already arrived.

【Shadow】has arrived.

The world of stars and the endless void around it were wrapped in deep shadows in a blink of an eye. The entire world of stars silently escaped from the void and immersed in another strange and unusual space-time area. For a moment, Joshua discovered that everything around him had disappeared, leaving only a deep black phantom, dancing with the light emitted by him.

Just like, immersed in the deep sea, wrapped in a strange medium that is completely different from the void.

"Strange, you are not a member of that world, so why are you standing in front of this world...it seems to want to protect it?"

In the endless shadows, pure information comes, which manifests itself in the minds of others, such as sounds, smells, fluctuations, etc., and the feeling is like communicating from all angles, seeing from touch, and talking in vision. Every extraordinary power has different ways to perceive and understand.

The message has a strange tone, and it is impossible to say whether it is curious or indifferent.

"Faced with this endless surging shadow, are you not afraid? You even took the initiative to appear here."

Joshua looked around the shadow surrounding him, but he did not answer. Because, this is not why not why, the question is that the triple curtain was severely damaged in the star world, and the Steel Python Star will sleep for thousands of years. The Patriarch is studying how to continue himself in the Ring of the Four Gods, while other sentient beings do not even know the arrival of the shadow.

At this moment, only he can act.

So he is here.

It's that simple.

The source of the information did not continue to ask this question. It seemed that he had looked at Joshua in some way, and then said in surprise: "Wait, there is so much information entanglement on you?"

"What did I see? The creation of psychic energy (three curtains), the inheritance of magic (knowledge takeover), and you are the representative of life energy, and the world of life elements and ether that transcends the ancient dragon and the void beast. But there are also holy light (the inheritance of sages) and shadow (the shadow demon king)! Have you actually been recognized by an abyss world, signed a contract with it, and also came into contact with new shadow demons?"

The expression of information is very complicated, and it seems to directly interpret all the information records carried by Joshua. The same piece of information can express two almost the same meaning, but this does not affect the surprising tone: "Even, you actually have the breath of the beast before. Is it the guardian of this world and you who wiped it out?"

Originally, I was supposed to be passing by, but on the road that has always been empty, I saw a huge world reef and a source of information that stopped slightly by the road. This time I was really attracted to my attention, began to gather my "view" and began to stare at Joshua.

"What exactly do you exist? It can actually involve so much information and cause and effect, as if the entire multiverse and all the sages are looking at you."

And just between the transmission of information, an image that can be observed begins to manifest in the shadow.

“This taste”

At that moment, Joshua frowned because he smelled a unique aura from the abyss, which was the smell of "dead" in the entire multiverse. It was born from a long-standing world and belonged to ashes. Before it was born, it was already "dead".

That's the smell of a 'devil'.

And just as Joshua was thinking about what this breath actually represented, the image from the shadow was completely manifested.

Like silhouettes.

How to say it? It was a very strange image. If you had to describe it, it was like a strange shadow puppet from where it came from, shining on a demon with curved long horns, huge wings and long tails of thorns. The light was eternal, and the silhouette of the devil changed, revealing various postures.

This kind of alien shape is an indescribable change, and the depth of the shadows is constantly changing, as if the infinite change itself contains some mystery.

In the eyes of the devil's silhouette, there were two deep black dots leading to endless distance, staring at Joshua, and seemed to have passed him, looking directly at the world of stars, information fluctuating: "So that's it, this is the hometown of the psychic sage, is it the prototype of the will of countless worlds... Ah, there is also the prototype of the psychic worm, I saw it, full of such a kind design..."

The fluctuating information may not represent the usual sense of the "sage", but Joshua knew that the meaning of this demon silhouette was that this extraordinary individual who transcended the close saint and was enough to influence the multiverse.

"You are, the wise man of [Shadow]."

Joshua looked at each other with the devil silhouette, and he murmured: "The real sage... is so powerful, so...."

Originally, the warrior felt that if one day he could truly see the sages and the existence of the "sage-level" he could have lost his composure, excited, curious, and even boldly wanted to challenge him. But now, when he really saw the other party, Joshua found that he was calmer than ever before, as if everything should have been like this.

It's here.

This infinite existence.

This will and power, time and space, which seem to be able to wrap the entire multiverse, is meaningless, and everything that is limited is created.

If you want to pass the world of stars in just a moment, the reason why you stop is perhaps because the world of stars is the hometown of the psychic sage and my existence.

But even this kind of existence, generations of sages have been fighting against the darkness behind the scenes, and have lasted for endless years until now.

Understanding all this, Joshua took a step forward instead. He looked at the silhouette of the demon who exuded the abyss, as if he was proud of it, and then said in the clearest tone: "Sage, are you going there too?"

Needless to say, everyone knows that there is only one place that ‘there’ refers to, that is the source of the demon tide and the direction where the initial fire is.

“There is the origin of everything and the end of everything.”

And then replied: "Laterites, one day you will also embark on this path."

"Why? What exactly happened to this multiverse? I have doubts in my heart, sage, I hope to get an answer."

There was no fear, even if he didn't know good or evil, he didn't know what it really existed. Even if the other party had the abyss and demons, the warrior still asked, looking for the answers to the doubts in his heart.

The shadow is still spreading towards the endless distance, but the silhouette is still stationed in place. The ancient demon stared at the humans in front of him who have seen the existence of not fearing the abyss and the demon aura, and have also seen the existence of wanting to help the abyss and the demons. They have benefited from a ray of light. In fact, all living beings have benefited from everything, and generation after generation, time and time, and it is precisely because of this that the moment is here.

And the life in front of you is the individual who is left by the light and is also moving towards the distance.

So he opened his mouth, just as the ancient past, another passing existence told Yu Shi.

"To answer this question, we need to start with the oldest history of this multiverse."

The silhouettes of the two horns danced, and a calm message flowed out: "Later-timer, do you know the meaning of 'Extraordinary Power'?"

"I know."

Joshua replied, standing in the center of endless shadows, shining light on himself, reflecting the shadows around him, and his voice firmly: "That is inheritance, continuation, existence, and it is precisely because of these numerous extraordinary powers that the multiverse and sentient beings today exist."

"Yes, that's right."

The near sigh message inspires in the hard place: "Sage, you call us that, and you also know that the existence of the sage will bring change to the multiverse, which is our inheritance and continuation. But do you know that not only the existence of the sage will bring change, but the passing of the sage will also bring change?"

"..." Joshua opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but when he was at the leader, he was silent again. He could not confirm this. The warrior did not want to express his guess for the first time.

But the shadow answered him calmly.

"Psychic energy, known to history's earliest extraordinary power, the power of the mind, and the changes brought by its existence have created the prototype of the multiverse heavens, all worlds, and the will of the steel python. The changes caused by the passing of the 'Psychic Sage' have led to the emergence of endless psychic insects. They are the legacy of the sage, feeding on the unwilling and evil thoughts in the minds of sentient beings, especially the sorrow and despair of the destruction of civilization. The huge psychic insects you see on the way you come are feeding on the unwilling resentment of the powerful people on the way back, and have grown to this point."

"If there is no spiritual energy, the power of the mind cannot be revealed, and the birth of life in the world will be even more difficult because of the lack of world will. The existence of psychic insects has curbed the proliferation of evil gods, and turned the evil gods, which should have been 'a hundred percent born' when civilization perished, into an abnormal phenomenon that is now destroyed by thousands of worlds and rarely occurs. It even curbed the crazy side effects that involve the duality of the mind and hidden in the spiritual energy."

The message that was enough to shock countless civilizations, the silhouette of the huge demon was still fluctuating: "Everything benefits from it, and you and I are like this, then it is magic."

"It is the power of creation and popularizes extraordinary people, which significantly increases the number of extraordinary people and extraordinary creatures in the multiverse. Because of the soul nourishment brought by magic, wild beasts can also have wisdom and then be promoted to civilization. The extraordinary effect brought by magic has greatly accelerated the development of civilization. The passing of the "Sage of Demons" led to the emergence of a great demon tide, which swept across all worlds and threw away extraordinary power faster than before, in order to spawn more civilizations and more powerful people. It is even a bridge to guide all sentient beings with ambition to the origin of the cause."

"If there is no magic power, the number of intelligent life in the multiverse will be reduced by 90%. Any creature with soul as the main body will disappear. The fluctuations caused by the great demon tide have created countless amazing individuals, subsequent sages, and even other close saints and strong people, will benefit countless times. Even later generations, aren't you still reaching your current realm in this period of the demon tide?"

That's true. Joshua nodded silently. He did grow up in this period of the demon tide, and even the entire Starfall Era rose because of this. It can be imagined that in the multiverse, how many civilizations and individuals grew up because of this.

The shadow continues: "Then, life energy."

"Its existence makes the change of matter simpler. Human will begin to be linked to matter, and creation also becomes simpler. Even inorganic matters, life can appear, and even souls do not need, but only the construction is appropriate. Even if I don't know about the sage of life, it may exist, but the name has disappeared in the present multiverse and its birth is even earlier than the history we know. But it can be confirmed that there are changes similar to the passing of the sage, that is, the ancient dragon and the void beast, which constitute the multiverse and the self-circulation system inside the multiverse, helping many galaxies to continue their lives."

"If there is no life energy, the possibility of intelligent life will be less, the cycle of the multiverse will come to an end early, the material world will be more difficult to change, and the environment will be thousands of times worse than it is now."

"We have passed away, in the ancient past, but we are still blessed and survive in the afterglow."

Even the sage of the shadows had the message with respect. The depth of the devil's silhouette changed, and he made a similar tribute action, whispering: "And the sage of the elements and ether seems to still exist. At least, I have not observed the appearance of similar changes."

"Elements differentiate the world and create balance between elements. You must know its effectiveness. I only say that if the past world is destroyed, it will be completely destroyed. However, because of the existence of elements, the elements in the void will enter the world of sanctification and slowly nourish it."

"And Ether is more gentle. As the manifestation of direction and force, it can create and support all kinds of strange worlds that are unreasonable, such as round sky, flat surface, concave or even hollow worlds. It allows small worlds to exist and allow small places to nurture greatness. It even divides the abyss and normal worlds together with elements, and even creates a cycle of reincarnation like the "Great Whirlpool of Creation".

Speaking of this, the message began to become softer and emotional, and Joshua, who listened carefully, heard familiar words.

"Holy Light." said the sage of the shadow: "Holy Light has made me."

"The Holy Light...made you?"

Joshua was slightly stunned. He looked at the shadow sage, staring at the endless deep silhouette eyes, and then let out a sigh: "Abyss, Demon... Ah, I understand!"

Ignoring the warrior who seemed to recall something, the ancient shadow demon said calmly: "As you can see, I am a demon who has been trapped in the galaxy of the world and is breathing in the abyss. This, even if it has not changed now, I do not want to change it."

"I was born in a dead world. Before 'birth', I began to experience the 'death' multiverse time trap. Later generations, you should know this. What I want to say is that the galaxy in the world where I am is, the time speed is hundreds of thousands of times that of the galaxy in the ordinary world, or even faster. It is the most edge of the multiverse. In the almost broken world of decay abyss, my tribe and I rely on the radiation energy of the black hole, because all the stars are extinguished, the white dwarfs turn black, and the universe is left with the embers of the thin particle fog."

Everything is close to the extinction and the undead universe.
To be continued...
