Chapter 717: It's not that the older the stronger, but the stronger the older
The night before departure, Mo Cheng sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, meditating silently.
Or it would be more accurate to say [recollection].
Recalling the battles he had encountered in the past, a momentum slowly emanated from Mo Cheng. The pure murderous aura without a trace of impurities was like the best cleansing material that continuously washed Mo Cheng's body.
The spirit has long been extremely powerful, and it drives the body to improve synchronously.
Improve, improve, and improve again.
The potential of this body has not yet been fully stimulated, and the power of this body has not yet reached its limit.
He can be even stronger!
But when his body was elevated to a certain level and his strength reached a certain limit, Mo Cheng realized that something was blocking him.
That is the shackle called "limit", but it is not his limit, but the limit that the world can currently bear.
This world is preventing him from unleashing a more powerful force.
The surging power receded like a tide, and Mo Cheng opened his eyes. "Sure enough, it is impossible to surpass the ninth level [Demigod] level of power without the version update."
Version update, or to put it more appropriately, world energy level limitation.
The limit that the world can allow is only the ninth level [Demigod] level, and higher levels of power are not allowed to exist.
This is how it should be, but there is a saying that goes, rules are meant to be broken.
Apart from anything else, the gods alone have the ability to bypass this rule and attack the continent of Khorvaire at a certain cost.
Previously, when Mo Cheng was on the northern defense line, the attack from the god against was a blow that violated the rules.
When the rules are violated too often, certain consequences will naturally occur, and the "Year of Turbulence" that can cause the gods to descend is one of the manifestations of this consequence.
But the emergence of the [Year of Turmoil] is not only due to the gods' large-scale and repeated violations of regulations, but there is something more important.
"【Eternal Night Demon King】..."
Silently reciting the name that no one had ever known, Mo Cheng was very clear about the reason why the Crystal Wall System in the future would be like a leaky house, with gods descending at will and visitors from other worlds visiting at every moment.
The reason for all this is a horrific disaster called the Eternal Night, which caused more than 60% of life in the world to disappear.
When the [Eternal Night Demon] died, the runaway power almost blew up the entire continent of Korvale, causing all the restrictions to be broken and disappear.
Gathering his strength, Mo Cheng stood up, but what came into his sight was a room filled with countless cracks.
That was the power of Mo Cheng that had not yet spread out. Even if it had only existed and had not taken any action, it would have left behind indelible traces.
This room, which was reinforced with magic patterns and could hardly be destroyed with a single blow even by a [Legend], was now on the verge of breaking apart. At the same time, a strange force was preventing the magic patterns from regenerating.
"If you want to go beyond the rules of Khorvaire, you can only go to a place that doesn't belong here."
Obviously, that kind of place is generally called a "copy" in Mo Cheng's place.
"Also, it would be best to take advantage of this opportunity to go back to the past and find some information about the Eternal Night Devil."
It is impossible for a person to have no information at all in this world , let alone an organization whose origins have never been found.
As far as Mo Cheng knows, the [Eternal Night Demon King] also has a lot of helpers under his command. From this point of view, it is even more thought-provoking that the [Eternal Night Demon King] has no origin.
This made Mo Cheng think of another possibility: time.
Perhaps, the time when the [Eternal Night Devil] exists is not the [present], but the [past] or the [future].
For some powerful people, time has never been an objective thing, but something that can change with their own subjectivity.
Even further, those individuals who are powerful enough can influence the past, cause and effect, and time.
It's not that the older the more powerful, but rather the more powerful the older.
…
The next day, Mo Cheng and Margaret came to Principal Muzel's magic tower. As always , Principal Muzel and Dorothy were already waiting.
"I won't ask you what you plan to do this time, but you can help me collect some of the things on this list."
Principal Muzel took out a list and handed it to Mo Cheng. His colleague explained, "If we can bring back the items on it, we can increase the power of the magic circle. If not, we can only use inferior materials to set it up."
Mo Cheng took the list and glanced at it casually. Most of the things were unfamiliar to him, but it didn't matter. He could go back to the past and use the power of the Lauren Frost family to find them.
Moreover, he had some reputation among other nobles, so it would not be difficult for him to find a way to get some precious things that could not be taken back from the copy and exchange them with those nobles.
Compared with the last time, Mo Cheng realized how crazy these nobles would be over territory.
Margaret took out the Dawn Wind with ease. This sword served as a signpost to return to the past history.
After taking out the Dawn Wind, Dorothy nodded, didn't say much, and directly condensed the Starlight Wand.
Looking at the starlight staff that was condensed under the interference of sunlight in broad daylight, Mo Cheng couldn't help but take a few more glances. The starry sky wizard who could ignore the interference of sunlight had already abandoned the title of "Daytime Waste" and officially entered the level of "Legend".
It seems that Dorothy has gained a lot of resources after cooperating with Lilia's platform.
As we all know, once a mage has enough resources, everything he does becomes particularly easy.
Whether it's experimenting, improving spell effects, or even upgrading...
Dorothy began to chant a spell, extracting starlight from the sunlight to form a portal.
It was a passage to past history, but this time the passage seemed a little wrong.
The scarlet-colored portal gave people an ominous feeling, while at the same time, a completely undisguised malice emanated from the other side of the portal.
"ah!"
Dorothy let out a scream, and the portal suddenly formed a huge suction force, like a whirlpool, trying to suck in everyone present.
But it was impossible for a few people to be pulled in by this little suction. Mo Cheng's feet seemed to be rooted to the spot. "So what's going on?"
This time the movement seemed a little strange. At least the two previous times when I went back to that period of history, there was no portal .
Principal Muzel looked at the portal carefully and shook his head. "I don't know either. My research on [Time and Space] is still at a superficial level. This anomaly has too many similarities. I can't make any conclusions without more information."
