Chapter223-Primordial Divine Spell
On the fifth floor, logically speaking, it should be the most important area in this book vault.
And this place is also the most heavily damaged section.
A large number of chaotic rules have appeared on the fifth floor.
In fact, the entire fifth floor barely has anything left intact.
However, there is one painting that catches everyone’s attention.
It can be said that the entire setup of the fifth floor seems to exist solely to highlight this painting.
Even Daniel was the same; his gaze was drawn to the painting at first sight.
The content of the painting is very simple.
It is merely a landscape painting.
Among the mountains and rivers, birds, beasts, fish, and insects are dotted throughout.
It appears full of vitality.
Since this painting has been uniquely preserved here, it must serve an extraordinary purpose.
This was Daniel’s first thought.
So, he picked up the painting.
It looked quite ordinary.
But Daniel knew that the painting must be unusual.
This was because the painting seemed to be untouched by the rules of Chaos.
Even…
The reason why the fifth floor wasn’t completely destroyed might be precisely because of this painting.
The severe rules of Chaos, yet there wasn’t a single trace around the painting.
That alone spoke volumes.
Daniel held the painting in his hands.
He did not find anything special about it.
So, he merged his mind power with the painting.
In an instant, Daniel seemed to have entered another world.
The surroundings were picturesque with clear mountains and rivers, filled with the fragrance of flowers and birds chirping.
The entire world exuded a sense of harmony and vitality.
Daniel even stretched out his hand to grab a butterfly fluttering gracefully.
The butterfly struggled constantly in Daniel’s hand.
It seemed to truly have life.
Then, with a slight force from Daniel’s fingers, he crushed it.
The butterfly immediately stopped moving and slowly slid out of Daniel’s hand.
During this process, Daniel could feel a surge of life force leaving the butterfly and flowing toward other places.
This world was the world inside the painting.
Everything here naturally belonged to an illusion.
But among all this, the life force was real.
And in this brief process, a passage of text suddenly appeared in Daniel’s mind:
Primordial Divine Spell: Genesis of Creation.
Over time, Daniel had come to understand the divine spells of the God Realm.
Such Primordial Divine Spells were generally of ancient origins.
They could even be traced back to the very beginning of the world’s creation.
Such a divine spell was most likely created by a powerful entity.
It had been passed down to this faction.
However, the possession of such a divine spell alone was enough to indicate one thing:
Before this ruin was destroyed, it must have held immense power.
Otherwise, such a divine spell would have long been taken away.
Genesis of Creation.
It referred to the transformation and evolution of all living things.
From a single blade of grass, a single flower, to the heavens and a whole world…
Daniel only skimmed through it briefly.
He knew that this type of divine spell could not be fully learned in a short time.
So, he could only roughly speculate on the effects of the divine spell.
By now, Daniel had more or less figured out why.
This faction became a ruin due to this very Primordial Divine Spell.
It was their triumph and their downfall.
The reason for this faction’s current state was very simple.
They had most likely attempted to elevate their world.
Based on Daniel’s speculation, the Genesis of Creation spell could, when mastered to its utmost, produce extraordinary effects.
It might even enable world elevation without a forge, or with only minimal reliance on one.
Judging by the outcome, they succeeded, but only partially. Find your next adventure on empire
The world did indeed ascend to the God Realm.
But…
The world was incomplete, or rather, the process of ascension was not in accordance with the normal procedures.
This led to a critical issue:
Their own rules differed greatly from the rules of the entire God Realm.
Perhaps this faction did not anticipate such a scenario.
The end result was that they faced this situation unprepared.
And so, the world collided directly.
The result…
Was the ruin that Daniel now saw.
That once-unparalleled powerful faction had turned into a ruin.
It seemed that the matter of world ascension required meticulous planning.
This journey to the book vault could now be considered complete.
Daniel’s greatest gain was this Primordial Divine Spell.
It would undoubtedly be useful in the future.
And, of course, the books related to other divine spells.
After collecting all these, Daniel left the book vault.
“Master, have you explored the entire book vault already?”
Varun couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked.
Daniel nodded.
He had scoured all five floors of the book vault.
“I’ve searched everything here. There’s no need for you to waste your efforts here.”
Hearing Daniel’s reply, Varun’s expression became one of disbelief.
Back then, he had followed several god kings from the Court of Divine King to this place.
Even the god kings believed that since this was a book vault, they would surely find something useful.
So, they had spent some time studying it.
But ultimately, they concluded that it was impossible to break in by force.
This book vault had been too severely corroded by the rules of Chaos.
It could only be gradually unraveled using magic arrays and the items extracted in small batches over time.
Currently, Varun could only enter the second floor briefly.
As for the first floor, there wasn’t much of value.
So, even the god kings believed that this place could not be forcibly accessed, only approached slowly.
Could this senior, who had imprisoned them, truly explore the entire place?
Varun was skeptical.
Wasn’t the other party just lying to them, planning to return and explore the book vault after they left?
Of course, even if Daniel knew what Varun was thinking, he wouldn’t care.
A summer bug cannot discuss ice.
Then, Daniel said to the group behind him:
“Let’s go to the central area. There’s nothing more here.”
After Daniel finished speaking, Arya led him forward.
On the way, they even came across a patch of broken land where many magical herbs were growing.
Unfortunately, most of these magical herbs had turned into something akin to the earlier withered grass due to the rules of Chaos.
Seeing this, Daniel collected all these magical herbs.
Who knows, Big White might find them useful.
Soon, Arya was nearing the location she had originally intended to visit.
“Master Daniel, it’s just ahead. The treasure vault is right ahead.”
Just as the book vault collected divine spells from this faction,
the treasure vault naturally also had many protections in place.
Moreover, the treasure vault was entirely different from the book vault.
Some treasures even inherently carried rules, enabling them to resist the rules of Chaos.
The three of them even found treasures that could help them ascend to god king.
But…
The rules of Chaos surrounding the treasure vault were extraordinarily powerful.
The chaotic currents even shifted positions periodically.
A single mistake could throw someone into the turbulence, leading to their utter demise.
And…
Taking treasures from the treasure vault wasn’t simple.
The three of them had tried their best to enter the treasure vault and attempted to take a single treasure.
But…
It was too difficult!
It required an immense amount of time, not to mention the constant vigilance needed against the spatial turbulence and the erosion of the rules of Chaos.
So, the three were forced to retreat and leave this ruin.
They sought ways to resist the rules of Chaos.
But over the past decade, they had made little progress.
Until they encountered Daniel this time, which led them to return here once again.
However, upon their return, they were shocked to find that people from the Court of Divine King had already arrived.
And they had been here for over half a month.
This realization gave Arya a sense of urgency to hurry.
