Chapter 442 Odin's Name
All the rivers converged directly below the tree stems, and in the next moment, under the action of snowflakes, they merged into a spiritual spring, clean and bright, crystal clear, and glowing with radiance!
In Ye Kong's field of vision, the spring water has a very dazzling white color, which is more pure white, more flawless, and more dazzling than the tree stems above it!
The white glow is so close to the sun that people can't open their eyes!
However, Ye Kong's eyes can't feel 'pain'.
Logically speaking, looking directly at a sun-like existence, the eyes will not be able to bear it, but Ye Kong's eyes don't hurt or itch, just feel that the other party is very white, there is no abnormality in the senses!
Regarding this point, Ye Kong felt strange.
However, when he saw the 'Ye Kong' who was closing his eyes in front of him, he understood in his heart-could it be that in my current state, there would be no sensory stimulation when I look at things?
Um.
This explanation is very reasonable.
Ye Kong touched his chin subconsciously, but found that his fingers had penetrated his cheeks. Sure enough, his form was more similar to a spirit body, and the sight he saw had nothing to do with his eyes. In view of this, Ye Kong named it 'Spiritual Vision' .
Spiritual vision, an ability that appeared inexplicably, should be the influence of the "Mirror Moon Breathing Method", which resonated with the spiritual root of the Thousand World Tree, and in the chemical reaction between the two, Ye Kong opened the state of spiritual vision.
"About the principle of Spirit Vision, why is it black and white? What are the benefits of using it? The system doesn't give any hints, how can I figure it out?"
"It seems that this matter is put aside for the time being."
Ye Kong didn't linger on the spiritual vision for too long, there is a more serious problem waiting for him to solve: "From the results, the spiritual root of the Thousand World Tree has fully recovered, and all the streams converge at its bottom , forming the spring water that the sword master said—the wisdom spring!"
At this time, Ye Kong used his spiritual vision to scan and found that the nearby monsters all stopped breathing, faced the central spiritual spring, bowed their heads and saluted!
This is
Ye Kong looked up again, and the original tree stems had already parted a big gap without knowing it, and a mountain-sized rhizome was exposed in the center, which was larger than the other rhizomes. Moreover, its body surface is covered with a layer of strange colors mixed with black and white!
This is the first time Ye Kong has seen mixed colors in his field of vision. Although its basic tone is still black and white, it also shows its extraordinaryness-obviously, that root is the spiritual root of the Thousand Worlds Tree!
True spiritual roots!
"The spiritual root of the Thousand Worlds Tree."
Ye Kong took a deep look at it, and the next moment, he looked at the Wisdom Spirit Spring again, and found that there was a stone tablet standing beside it. Because it was a dead object, the stone tablet was pure black, but the characters on it were actually snow. White?
It is the same color as the snowflakes in the sky!
Ye Kong didn't care about other things, and concentrated on looking at the font. It turned out to be an ancient sacrificial language, and the translation was a long record about an epic——
The great Lord of Thunder, the ruler of all things in the world, and the titular leader of the gods, Odin, once came to the place where the first life was conceived, and the thousand-world tree that first supported the sky, Iggetsi. Then, at the bottom of the Thousand Worlds Tree, Odin found the spiritual spring containing the wisdom of the world-the Mimir Spring.
As long as Odin drank it, he would have unimaginable spiritual wisdom, comprehend all languages, comprehend all principles, and comprehend all martial arts! Anyone is no longer his opponent!
However, guarding the edge of the Mimir Spring is the mighty Lord of Frost, Skadi. He is the object of faith of the Frost Giants. He is the main god served by the God of Blizzard, Sessia. He is the symbol of all coldness!
In front of him, even if he is as strong as Odin, he can't force it sideways. Fortunately, Skadi is not absolutely ruthless. After all, he is not a god of despair, and he does not need to be completely selfless.
Therefore, Scarti agreed to Odin's request, but put forward a condition: Odin must pass his test if he wants Mimir spring water.
The content of the specific test is to let Odin hang upside down at the bottom of the tree of the thousand worlds Iggetsi, without eating or drinking, for nine days and nine nights, he must recite the runes every moment, as the root of the tree of the thousand worlds. And support ability.
Odin had no other choice, so he agreed to his test.
For the next nine days and nine nights, Odin hung upside down at the bottom of the Tree of Thousand Worlds, not eating or drinking, chanting runes day and night, and constantly blessing the Tree of Thousand Worlds. Finally, Odin passed the extraordinarily long nine days and completed Scarti's test.
At this time, the tree root that hung Odin also absorbed a trace of his stalwart divine power, and it grew into the largest tree stem among the tree stems of the Thousand Realms.
Since then, that stem has been called the spiritual root.
Odin, who was exhausted, finally got Skadi's recognition, so Skadi took out a golden cup and told Odin that it was the "Chiara Horn Cup", and its function was to scoop up Spring water, or contain other nothingness.
Mimir's spring water is very special, regardless of man or god, it can be seen, but its shape cannot be touched, and the "Jiala Horn Cup" is needed as a medium to scoop out the spring water.
So, Odin thanked Skadi, and was about to take the golden cup, but was stopped by Skadi again: "Wait a minute, this cup symbolizes the truth in the world, you have to pay an eye as the price for getting it .”
Without hesitation, Odin immediately dug out his left eye and handed it to Scarti himself. The latter threw Odin's left eye into the "Chiara Horn Cup". Immediately, the whole cup burst into white light, stronger than It's daytime!
After a lot of tossing, Odin finally got the cup. When he bent down to take the spring, the eyes in the cup slipped into the depths of the spring and disappeared.
After Odin drank the spring water, he immediately obtained the supreme spiritual wisdom. In order to commemorate the new life, Odin gave himself another name - "Jupiter", which means happy and represents the joy of new life!
The whole document ended here, but Ye Kong fell into deep thought.
Jupiter.
It turned out to be Odin's pseudonym!
Ye Kong had a sudden realization.
At the beginning, in the illusion he saw in the city of Hughes, there was the figure of Jupiter and Prometheus, the master of wisdom. Now it seems that the contradiction between the two may have been buried long ago. For example, the function of the wisdom spring should make Jupiter. No, it should be said that Odin has the ability to intervene in 'wisdom'!
Therefore, He and Prometheus became irreconcilable!
but
Ye Kong turned his head and looked at the monsters. If what the sacrificial text said was true, then Ye Kong would not be able to touch the water of wisdom. Without the legendary "Jiala Horn Cup", no creature would be able to touch it.
The monsters didn't come forward to lick the spring water, which was probably the reason.
"Could it be possible, I want to look at the spring water to comprehend the job change, and my exclusive system?"
Ye Kong showed a wry smile, which was too difficult for others.
Who knows, how long will he have to look at the spring water? Need an hour?
Still an afternoon?
Or half a day? Or a month?
Judging from the situation of the spring water, even Odin had to 'hang' for nine days before he could pass Scarti's test.
It is impossible for Ye Kong to be less than nine days.
so.
Just when Ye Kong was full of entanglements, suddenly, the spiritual root seemed to be alive, and it took the initiative to extend downwards, a little bit, and the top of the huge rhizome was facing the spiritual spring. The next moment, the spiritual root was forceful——
Snapped!
The spiritual root is inserted into the spring water!
Wow!
Pieces of epidermis were peeled off from the spiritual roots, and slowly dissolved in the spring water. A large number of white light spots escaped and gathered around the center!
In Ye Kong's field of vision, the white color in the center of the spiritual root became more intense, and a white object slowly took shape. It has an inexplicable sense of familiarity!
"This is!"
Ye Kong's pupils shrank suddenly.
because
The shape of that white object.
He met once in Medusa's temple!
exactly
The golden cup that once held the dew of the moon!
PS: The allusion of Odin taking the eye and holding the cup is taken from Norse mythology, but the object has been slightly modified, which is generally consistent with the original work. Well, there is also the matter of hanging upside down. I also slightly modified the order.
This is a second creation of the myth. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the Nordic mythology. Anyway, it’s been modified. It’s different from the original story, leaving only a sense of sight.
