Pure black or white was not a good thing for the whole world.
Just like Søren, although he admired the lofty faith of the God of Light, he would never agree with his ideas. Even the daughter of the God of Light, the Goddess of Agriculture, who inherited the priesthood of the Mother of Earth, could not agree with this. If this was not the case, the Goddess of Agriculture would not have another set of gods of her own.
The devils were always so careful.
After the tentative attacks began to be counterattacked by the churches of the gods, their little tricks immediately reduced a lot.
Unlike the ancient Elemental Gods, the churches of the other gods were basically in the material plane. The material plane was a very important source of their believers. So the gods, whether good or evil, maintained the same general direction, that was, they must never let the material plane fall into the control of the devils.
It was a peaceful night.
Søren did not know when he became more and more accustomed to watching the stars at night because it could tell him the current situation of the gods.
The stars in the sky were dim.
Although there were not many battles during this time, there were still gods with weak divine power who fell one after another. For example, Jurag Lien, the God of Death of the Halfling.
He fell.
Without any warning, his fall seemed to be related to Naruto.
Naruto was known as the enemy of good, the abomination of life, the bringer of darkness, the king of gloom, and the reaper of flesh and blood.
His faith in the material plane was mainly distributed in the desert area. He was not a god who used the material plane as the main source of faith. Naruto also had his own churches in other planes. Just like almost most of the drows believed in the Queen of Spiders, Lolth, if there were traces of drows in other planes, they would also bring Lolth's faith there.
Priesthood plunder was the main theme of the Avatar Crisis.
As a mid-level god, as long as Naruto was given a chance, he could kill other gods who were in charge of death.
It was obvious.
He seized this opportunity, but he also angered the main god of the Halfling. Perhaps because the main faith was not in the material plane, Naruto was not too afraid of it.
As for the traces of other gods, it was not clear, but it was said that there were traces of the Crocodile God in the northwest.
…
Mordor City was like a strong fortress.
The Abyss had entered an important buffer period. Before Yeenoghu, the Gnoll God, launched another attack, Søren had enough time to do something else.
His destination was the mechanical realm of the clock's nirvana.
It was a world that he had planned for a long time and only had time to go to today. More importantly, he learned about the ancient god's corpse from the Githyankis. This was a very important source of divinity for Søren. A well-preserved ancient god's corpse could give him a lot of divinity.
"Astral Teleportation!"
Søren's figure appeared in the Astral Plane along with the radiance of divinity.
The gods were naturally knowledgeable about planes. He easily locked onto the Mechanical Realm of Nirvana and used his divine power to teleport to the vicinity of this plane.
[Mechanical Nirvana of Clockwork]!
This was a plane of ultimate order.
It was the birthplace of all planes of order.
It was the machine that adjusted the multiverse.
It was said that its birth was related to the original [Time] law of the multiverse and represented the highest standard of order. Looking down at the entire Mechanical Realm from the Astral Plane, its shape was like a water droplet-shaped clock, and it had an obvious tree-shaped domain. [Note: The Mechanical Realm is occasionally called the Tree of Time.]
In the Mechanical Realm, each law constituted an independent gear kingdom, and all operations rotated according to their own rules. Each cog acted on a huge amount of computing data. Except for those puzzling legal functions, even the divine powers could not understand the effect of these data. The Mechanical Realm was the straightest and flattest of all the outer planes. It was like a huge machine created by an unknown existence, operating according to a specific law. This plane was not as natural as other worlds, because at a glance, one could feel a very strong sense of structure.
It was said that there was a great divine power called the [Lord of Time]. They might still exist, or they might have died.
At least the gods had not seen them, and the Mechanical Realm of Nirvana of Clockwork was said to be their masterpiece. Generations of arcanists had tried to find the most original mystery from it.
Søren entered the interior of the Mechanical Realm.
It was not much different from other planes. The Mechanical Realm had a unique gravity characteristic, which meant that the gravity of the entire Mechanical Realm was different. Some places were close to the gravity of a material plane, and some places were more than ten times the gravity of a material plane. If one did not have the strength of a legendary level, it was extremely difficult to even walk in some places of the Mechanical Realm.
This was also why Søren had not entered the Mechanical Realm until now.
Although it was related to time, and the entire plane was like a clock, in fact, the flow of time in the Mechanical Realm was the same as in other planes. There was no sign of time passing too fast or too slow.
In theory, the space in this plane was infinite.
Although the gears in the Mechanical Realm were limited, the characteristic of this plane was that it could be expanded infinitely. It was made up of countless gears, and the smallest one was the size of a standard island. It was unknown how amazing the power was to be able to create such a plane.
Large and small gears and parts made up the clock, and the size of the clock was about the same as the continental shelf of Asia.
Some useless gears floated around the Mechanical Realm. There were some void creatures living on them, and they were full of hostility toward outsiders. This was a plane that completely distorted the concept of reality. If visitors from other material planes came, everything they knew would be overturned.
The entire Mechanical Realm was fixed with spells.
At least the power of Lesser Divine Power was needed to change the Mechanical Realm. Ordinary things had to be changed with spells and physical effects.
The characteristic of the Mechanical Realm was time.
However, no one knew how to trigger it, so this plane had no elemental or energy characteristics.
In the Mechanical Realm, there was a strong tendency toward Order. Anyone who was not in the Lawful Camp would receive a negative effect of -2 in all Charm, Wisdom, and Intelligence. In other words, this plane was very extreme, and was very unfriendly to the Neutral Camp and the Chaotic Camp!
The magic characteristics of the Mechanical Realm were normal, and most spells could be cast normally.
The place Søren arrived at was a very large gear.
The area was almost the size of a kingdom, and there was a portal in his sight. These ancient portals were scattered all over the Mechanical Realm. Some were damaged, but some were still functioning. Some of the ancient constructs were still maintaining the normal operation of the Mechanical Realm. They would repair these portals regularly, and the natives were able to reach the other gears through the portals through the connection between the gears.
The portals here were connected to the outer plane and the Astral Space. Half of the time, there was a green light around the portals, similar to gears, and slowly rotating rings. This represented the purpose, direction, and position of the portal. One had to have more than 350 Knowledge and had studied both the Astral Space and the Mechanical Realm to be able to understand these words and understand where the portal led to. At the same time, many portals opened according to time. The entire Mechanical Realm was like a huge clock, and when it ran to a certain time, some portals would open. Once it appeared, the opening of the portal would usually remain for at least an hour, and it could last for as long as 24 hours.
It was extremely dangerous to casually teleport in the Mechanical Realm!
The natives of the Mechanical Realm were building their homes on the cogs in the void. There were usually no wild animals or plants on the surface of the cogs, but colonists from various planes, including the Main Plane, the Nine Hells, Mountain Paradise, and other planes, had transformed the surface of the cogs where they were into various mazes, gardens, and nature reserves.
In other words.
The entire Mechanical Realm was a huge mechanical clock. Most of the animals, plants, and even the soil on the surface were brought over by the natives who had migrated here over a long period of time.
Almost all the natives living in the Mechanical Realm were not complete real creatures — they were constructs!
Of course.
There was another very dangerous creature here — the Fermi Ant Tribe!
Their nest ran through the entire Mechanical Realm. These ant-like creatures looked for all the colonies they could see, and then like worker bees, they swallowed everything living on them into their nest and made these things obey the laws of their queen.
This branch of the Astral Insect Tribe was the number one killer in the Mechanical Realm!
Soon.
Søren encountered one of them. As the soil was turned over, a creature that looked like a giant ant appeared in front of him. After seeing Søren, it panicked a little and seemed to want to immediately drill back into the ground.
But Søren would not give it the chance.
With a flame arrow, Søren directly nailed it to the ground. The Fermi Ant Tribe was a very troublesome creature. Often, if one was let go, it would attract a large group.
There were a small number of petitioners in the Mechanical Realm.
The probability of encountering them was not high, just like how there were very few gods who had attached their kingdom to this plane.
Vision in the Mechanical Realm was normal. The daytime in this plane was lit up by a sudden light from the void for 12 hours, and then it was completely dark for 12 hours. Hearing here was also normal, although sometimes there was a rumbling sound caused by the rotation of the cogs on the edge of the ground. [Note: Some planes' hearing and vision will be distorted.]
There was a type of building here called the [Nest Cogs].
They were the base of the Fermi Ant Tribe. Nest cities made of excellent buildings existed on the surface of the cogs and their colonies. Every colony kept thousands of workers, warriors, and foremen, as well as a dozen or more Fermi Ant guards. No matter the situation, every cog only had one queen, and their orders were the absolute law of the cogs.
There was a very special existence that must be mentioned here.
That was — the [Mother of All Ants]!
In the Mechanical Realm, there was an empire ruled by the Fermi Ant Tribe. They were constantly building colonies on the cogs of the Mechanical Realm, and a large number of Fermi Ants lived on them.
And in the heart of the Fermi Ant Tribe's empire, there were all the important colonies around the cogs, and the [Mother of All Ants] lived at the core. All the Fermi Ants believed that the cog where the [Mother of All Ants] was at least three thousand miles in diameter, and this cog was the core of all the cogs in the Mechanical Realm and moved the other cogs. Whether it was a fact or a simple belief, the two sides of the core cog were covered with a solemn nest city, and the surface was covered with a god-like light. The [Mother of All Ants] claimed to be a mid-level god, and although this claim was difficult to verify, the thirty-three highest-level Fermi Ant Queens always followed the [Mother of All Ants] to protect the safety of this ruler of the ants.
The [Mother of All Ants] was Søren's biggest threat in the Mechanical Realm!
This false god that claimed to have mid-level divine power had an inestimable strength, and alerting it would bring a lot of trouble to Søren.
The Mechanical Realm of Nirvana was one of the ancient battlefields of the Order Gods, so there were many corpses of ancient gods that appeared here in history, and at the same time, another special creature was born — the [Faceless]!
Most of the Faceless wandered in the Astral Plane.
But the chances of encountering them in the Mechanical Realm were also very high. These terrifying divine creatures were born from the flesh of ancient gods, and no one knew how they were born. But if a Faceless was born, then the ancient god's corpse floating in the Astral Plane would gradually disappear.
