Light as a feather.
He broke away from gravity and floated in the void.
This was how Chen Rui felt now, or the feeling after waking up.
He couldn't tell what kind of state it was. It was like his soul had left his body and was drifting in the universe.
Without a body, he didn't need to breathe, but he felt relaxed and serene.
That's right, the surrounding scene was the universe, not the galaxy in the Super System. There was no sense of faith aura either. It seemed to be the real universe.
Is this … the feeling of dying?
Chen Rui remembered that he had read about the feeling of death on the Internet. These were not obtained from the real dead, but they were summarized by experts who described the dying and attempted suicide. He vaguely remembered that there was extreme flatness and calmness, and … integration with the universe?
With this peaceful feeling now, coupled with the universe "travel", am I really dead?
(I haven't had sex with a certain Empress, and I haven't had sex with another Empress, and I haven't had sex with other wives … I actually died before I realized my ambition?)
(What about the protagonist halo? What about the crystal palace halo?)
While he was thinking about it, the drift continued.
The speed of drifting felt very slow, but the process of time in the universe was the opposite. For example, just now, Chen Rui witnessed the process of a star from "youth" to "old age". The violent explosion of death made Chen Rui think of the Supernova. [Star Explosion] performed by Shura. The electromagnetic radiation illuminated the entire galaxy, forming a gorgeous and dazzling nebula. Many nearby planets were swallowed, and some became wreckage.
Another planet was hit by another comet and turned into debris and cosmic dust. This was also a kind of destruction.
In the face of time, destruction was so simple.
Destruction was the end of everything. There was nothing immortal since ancient times, even the legendary eternal gods.
The flow of time was getting faster and faster, and the speed of destruction was also increasing. The visual explosion or annihilation gradually became a feeling. This feeling was not fear, but a touch of intimacy as if it was some kind of innate law. Or as a saying went, life was pursuing the process of destruction from the beginning of its birth.
Chen Rui closed his "eyes" and felt the origin power of destruction from his mind. He only felt that his soul was synchronizing with the rhythm as if it was nurturing some corresponding law.
The law of destruction was in life and in his hands.
Chen Rui opened his eyes and looked at his hands as if he had grasped something.
Although he couldn't fully understand it for a while, the seed had been successfully planted. It was only a matter of time before he understood it.
Hands? Chen Rui suddenly realized something. The surrounding scene changed. He was no longer in the universe, but he was in another room. This room was very large. The room was dark, and the layout and atmosphere was a bit weird. There were many people around, wearing black cloaks and metal masks.
He was looking at his hands. On the palms of these hands, there was a strange mark drawn. This mark had an ancient and vicissitude breath. It was somewhat similar to the meaning of ancient runes, but it was not the same. It should represent some kind of serious meaning.
"Now, concentrate and put your hand on this crystal ball." A cloaked person in front who seemed to be the leader spoke. Her voice was a little hoarse. It was a woman. The color of the mask on her face was different from the ordinary bronze. It showed a touch of gold.
Crystal ball? Chen Rui set his eyes on the translucent crystal ball in front of him. It was about the size of a football, and it showed a strange meaning. Not only that, Chen Rui also felt the hostility and even killing intent of the cloaked people around him. It seemed that they were ready to kill him at any time. By the way, what about < Analytical Eyes >? What about the Super System? It seems that these are all gone?
While Chen Rui was puzzled, his body had already walked up. It seemed to be out of his control, then his hands also reached toward the crystal ball involuntarily. The originally colorless crystal ball gradually lit up, emitting a pale red light.
The killing intent of the cloaked people around him seemed to have faded a lot. The light was getting stronger and finally turned into a rich blood color. Chen Rui clearly felt that his hands were deliberately suppressing a certain breath. Even so, it had already surprised the cloaked people around him.
Chen Rui didn't smile, but he felt that there seemed to be a smile on his face. He had already faintly understood that this wasn't his body!
(What about my Great Demon Realm?)
(What about my Great Demon Realm? What about my Great Harem? Could it be that I was repatriated because I didn't apply for the temporary residence permit in the other world in the Space Administration?)
(Is this considered as another godly ridicule?)
(Why did I use the word "again" …)
"It's really surprising that you actually have this level of faith." The cloaked woman who was the leader said, "May the Lord of Destruction bless you. From today onwards, you are an official Black Death Apostle."
Black Death Apostle! These three words made Chen Rui tremble. Everything around him slowly disappeared and converged into another scene.
Even though it was late at night, the buildings in front of him still gave Chen Rui a sense of familiarity. It turned out to be the Church of Light. From the scale, it was similar to the Church of Gudan Town in the Yangshao Kingdom that Chen Rui had stayed in before. It should be a small town's Church.
Several black cloaked people rushed towards the Church like black smoke. The body that Chen Rui had "possessed" was also among them. Not long after, the Church's members were all slaughtered.
The cloaked people used the blood of the priests to draw strange symbols on the ground. Meanwhile, Chen Rui killed his way into the prayer hall. He pretended to fight against a few Knights of Light, but his body silently released an invisible force that attached itself to the God of Light's statue in the hall. The blurry face of the God of Light's statue slowly changed, turning into a face that Chen Rui was very familiar with.
This face was his otaku face on Earth!
Chen Rui finally knew whose body his soul was attached to belonged to. It was Shura!
No, this was not soul possession. It should be … Shura's memory. He was now like a bystander, watching Shura's memory!
The clone was actually equivalent to a "robot" that completely obeyed and accepted the command of the original body. It had high intelligence, similar to the puppet of the "God-Eating Mask". Under the situation of "seizing", it used independent judgment and adaptability to complete the task given by the original body. For example, the battle with White Night was like this. Regardless of battle awareness or the ability to grasp the timing, it was not inferior to a real powerhouse.
The mission that Chen Rui gave to Shura was to steal the power of faith. However, he did not expect that Shura would actually join a secret church that was regarded as a mortal enemy by the Church of Light and become a Black Death Apostle!
After the face of the God of Light's statue in the prayer hall changed, the power of faith began to surge into Shura's body crazily. This method was a little too eager for quick success, which was the complete opposite of Chen Rui's slow and steady flow in the human world. However, back then, Chen Rui stole it quietly to hide his identity. Now, as a Black Death Apostle, Shura was blatantly plundering, so he naturally did not need to worry about being exposed.
The holy aura of the God of Light's statue was rapidly weakening, and the statue also began to crack. Shura had already killed a few Knights of Light. When he noticed someone coming in from outside, he conveniently punched the God of Light's statue into pieces.
The person who came in was the woman who had been the leader from back then. When she saw the scene of Shura shattering the God of Light's statue, she praised, "Well done!"
Shura walked out of the hall, and the Black Death Apostles quickly retreated from the Church of Light. The strange patterns drawn in blood started to burn, and very soon, the entire church turned into a sea of fire.
At this time, the scene changed again. The place where Chen Rui was at had become a hall.
At the very front was a building with an altar, filled with a burning aura. On the wall behind the altar, there were three layers of strange reliefs.
These reliefs were the "gods" that this mysterious church worshipped and worshipped. They seemed to be covered by a strange power, and even with Shura's eyesight, he could not see through them.
"Richard, your performance and contributions during this period of time are quite outstanding. You will now be promoted to a level 3 deacon, and you will be rewarded with a petal of the Flower of Darkness." The one who spoke was the cloaked woman with a slightly hoarse voice. She was one of the bishops of this mysterious church, and also the leader of this branch.
Shura stepped forward to receive the silver mask and a box that represented his status as a deacon. The female bishop then rewarded the rest of the Black Death Apostles. About twenty of them received the petal of the Flower of Darkness as a reward, and the many Black Death Apostles below all revealed looks of envy. It seemed to be something extraordinary.
Shura opened the box and saw a blood-red petal inside. This petal seemed to be a clear crystal, but it was not a dead object that had been carved out. Instead, it had real life, and appeared to be bewitching and beautiful.
Chen Rui's consciousness also saw this petal. Feeling the bewitching aura, he suddenly thought of a terrifying thing.
"The Flower of Darkness is a holy item bestowed by the Ruler. It can give ordinary people supernatural powers that are close to that of gods. Now, you can begin to absorb the power of the petal." The female bishop's voice rang out. "Place the petal in your palm, relax your mind and all resistance, and wholeheartedly feel the gift of the Ruler. If there are any special changes, do not be surprised or afraid. This will be the beginning of you transcending mortals … It can only be used on the most devout believers of Destruction. If it is a heretic with impure faith or ulterior motives, their body will be turned into ashes under the power of the Ruler."
'The most devout believers of Destruction?' Shura revealed a secretive smile and sat down. Without thinking, he took out the petal and placed it in his palm. He closed his eyes, and the petal gradually turned into a red mist, enveloping Shura's body.
Chen Rui could clearly feel that the aura of Destruction in the petal was easily absorbed by Shura's body, but a special mark was deliberately left behind.
"He absorbed the power of the holy item so quickly?" The female bishop looked at Shura, who had opened his eyes, with some surprise, and then nodded approvingly. "As expected of the most devout believer of the God of Destruction."
Shura smiled and did not answer. He only nodded. The others who had received the Flower of Darkness did not wake up. Many of them had expressions of pain on their faces, and two of them had turned into ashes, either because their faith was insufficient or because their bodies could not bear it.
Chen Rui inadvertently glanced at the relief sculptures, and suddenly found that the blurry relief sculptures had changed. In the lowest layer, a statue became clear.
It was a short, thin monster with very sharp claws and a rather large mouth that took up half of its face. Two rows of protruding fangs made it look very ferocious.
This image was very familiar to Chen Rui, who had inherited the ancient alchemy civilization. With the addition of the Flower of Darkness, he finally understood what the "god" that this mysterious church worshipped was.
