Chapter 520: A World of Its Own
"Compared to what outsiders call whistles, we Abyss people prefer to call them flutes because they have multiple holes on them."
Riko grabbed the climbing rope, put on a safety belt and descender, and expertly descended to the protruding platform twenty meters below the cave entrance.
When Zhou Qing and Tang San also came down, Li Ke took the whistle in her hand, pointed to the four small holes in the front, back, left and right, and said: "Although it is shorter than the flute, it has more holes. When blowing, you can close the different holes with your thumb and press the frequency to play beautiful music."
"At the same time, the color of the flute also represents the level of the explorer."
"Red like me is the beginner, with the red flute, followed by the black flute, then the purple flute, then the yellow flute, and finally the white flute that the strongest explorer can wear."
"It is said that the white flute is very special. It is a treasure formed by the special energy covering the entire abyss ruins. It is very rare and will recognize its owner. In other words, only the person who first obtained the white flute can use it. If the owner dies, the white flute will lose its magical properties and become a harder ordinary flute."
Red flute, black flute, purple flute, yellow flute, white flute.
Isn't this just reversing the color of the spirit ring?
Zhou Qing seemed to be thinking about something, and asked, "Different flutes have different users and different soul power levels, right? How is it specifically divided..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhou Qing was stunned.
When sensing his own soul power, Zhou Qing suddenly discovered that he seemed unable to clearly perceive his own soul power level. He could only barely perceive which realm his soul power was in.
This situation did not occur after entering the abyss. In fact, it had already appeared when entering Abyss Town, but Zhou Qing did not pay attention to it at that time.
Tang San was a little uncomfortable with this situation, as if he had returned to the situation in his previous life when he was cultivating his internal strength.
Apart from being able to feel the depth of one's skills, one is unable to accurately judge the specific realm of one's internal strength, and thus does not know what level one's own strength has reached.
"Soul power level?"
Li Ke frowned, then suddenly realized and said, "Teacher said that the explorers outside are called soul masters. Compared with exploration, they prefer fighting. The levels are divided according to martial souls, soul rings, and soul power. It's just that we have never understood what martial souls are, and we don't know why people outside divide soul power into so many levels, and we don't know how so many levels are divided... Can you tell me?"
“People outside don’t have a full understanding of this.”
Zhou Qing raised his hand, wanting to touch the girl's head, but when he thought that the girl was already fifteen years old, he immediately withdrew his hand and said, "As for the level, although we are in the same world, the rules of the outside world may not affect here."
Tang San nodded slightly.
Perhaps, the environment here is the normal world, and outside, the rules of Douluo Continent -
After a soul beast dies, a soul ring will appear, and there is even a chance that a soul bone will appear...
Although soul masters can awaken their martial souls, they cannot break through the bottleneck without soul rings...
All this is obviously not normal.
"Natural rules?" The girl was extremely surprised, and also puzzled that in the same world, the natural rules could be different.
"How should I put it? This could be because a certain existence became so powerful that it was beyond human imagination, and therefore affected the laws of nature to a certain extent..."
That being said, Zhou Qing felt that this should be the influence of some kind of force, which means that it looks like there have been changes at the rules level, but in fact it is not a direct change of the rules at all.
Just like the movie he had seen in his previous life: "Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters", the life level of that Godzilla was so strong that it affected the ecology of the entire earth, causing all animals and plants on the earth to begin to evolve and transform in the direction of adapting to Godzilla.
It can be said that this is a brand new earth ecosystem established with Godzilla as the fixed point!
During this process, have the various physical and chemical laws on Earth changed fundamentally?
No. At most, the ecosystem was affected by Godzilla's radiation, and in order to survive, it had to evolve in a direction that was adapted to Godzilla.
Similarly, in this planetary worldview, if the god-level power really wants to change the laws of nature, it should theoretically be done in this way, rather than forcibly changing the laws of the world.
After all, no matter how powerful the Dragon God is, he cannot change the most basic physical laws of nature and the universe.
Can it be changed?
That's allowed by the rules.
Otherwise, the "server" of the universe will either collapse directly, or try every possible means to "kill the virus". If the virus cannot be killed, it will eventually collapse, and everything will return to nothingness.
"Oh~"
Liko seemed to understand, so she didn't ask any more questions and continued to lead Zhou Qing and Tang San downwards.
The girl looked weak, but she was in good health. In just over 20 minutes, she had brought the two of them down nearly 200 meters.
After passing through the cloud, the darkness instantly dissipated and it returned to daytime.
Looking up, there was no sun in the sky, and no one knew where the light came from. It was as warm as natural light, but Zhou Qing was able to determine the time of the first level based on the operation of the Xiantian Neijing diagram: eight o'clock in the morning.
Although the specific perception of soul power level disappeared in this strange area, Zhou Qing's perception of nature became more accurate, and even further shortened the distance between himself and nature.
[Sure enough, the rules of the outside world, to some extent, hinder humans’ perception and understanding of nature... It’s good to let people feel the specific level of soul power and see progress, but it also guides people’s thoughts in the direction of accumulating energy and cultivating, while ignoring the essential cycle and operation rules of the world...]
After realizing this, Zhou Qing began to believe Tang San's guess and felt that this place might be a normal world that was not affected by the main cultivation system of external soul masters, and it was also the original world.
Of course, it is possible that someone 20,000 years ago had a fantasy and created and imitated the world before the influence of the Dragon God and the gods of the divine world, in order to find another way out and escape the influence of the divine world...
···
Another half an hour later, Li Ke led Zhou Qing and Tang San to the bottom, which was the first floor.
Green grass!
The warm breeze is gentle!
It's like a paradise on earth.
"Is this the first layer of the abyss? I thought there would be a lot of monsters there." Zhou Qing took a deep breath, his lungs expanded, and his whole body and mind seemed to relax.
Pounding!
The heart beats and the blood vessels continuously dilate and contract, as if all the cells in the body have become active, greedily enjoying the feeling of being one with nature.
At this moment, Zhou Qing felt that he had returned to his real "home". When he was in the outside world, although he was also in the world, there was always an inexplicable barrier that prevented him from having a real close connection with the nature of heaven and earth.
"The energy of heaven and earth here is so rich!"
Tang San took a breath and couldn't help but exclaimed, "If I can practice here, I may become a Soul Douluo in less than ten years!"
