Chapter 295: Obtained (Please Subscribe)

"The Deity who fell here... it should be Him, right?"

Aaron sighed, and instead of entering the deep pit, he continued to search around its perimeter.

Before long, on the other side of the large pit, he made a discovery.

On a half-broken wall, or rather, a mound of earth, there was a mural.

This painting seemed to have been smeared with fresh blood, filled with a sense of madness and symbolism; the bloodstains upon it had long since dried and blackened, yet they carried a weird charm.

On the blood-painting, a terrifying scene was depicted using highly abstract techniques.

The Light of Redemption, which had vanished for a thousand years, had finally descended upon this land once more!

Above its neck, there were nine human heads, including men and women, old and young.

At this moment, all the heads opened their eyes and looked toward the direction of the blood-colored mural!

And at this time, Aokelaier's figure had already vanished without a trace.

A moment later.

"Pursuing too much knowledge makes it very easy to get yourself killed; in this regard—the 'Tower' pathway is still very dangerous."

—A pitch-black solar corona covered most of the blood-painting, and a large amount of dark flames were burning another unknown existence.

Therefore, it also mastered the power of an Evil Spirit and could split the Evil Spirit from within...

Counting the Truth Balance in Liliyat's hands, he had finally gathered seven materials and could attempt to open the door to the non-human!

Before the blood-colored mural.

On the ground, he saw a pile of burnt ashes, and within the ashes lay a blue-gold Crystal, sparkling.

A Beast of Darkness, immense in size and nearly equivalent to a small elephant, suddenly raised its head.

Because the Spirit of Delusion is unobservable and untouchable... therefore, when he came, he did not stir even a breeze, and when he left, he did not take away a single speck of dust.

Aaron looked around, but did not find any Magical Item left behind, so he sighed with some regret and vanished.

That unknown existence was very abstract, depicted with only a few sparse strokes, but those with sufficiently high inspiration seemed to be able to hear a sigh in their hearts just by looking at those strokes!

"Three have passed away, one swallowed by a great serpent, one burned by the solar corona, one stripped to the realm of the un-strippable... but the Secret History shall still remember..."

Inside the study.

Some of them laughed wildly, some wailed in pain, some shrieked, some twisted... In an instant, Aokelaier 'fell', resulting in a split of spirit and personality!

They even actively tore at Aokelaier's Spirit Body, wanting to devour it directly!

Even so, it dared not get too close; it was so afraid of the sigh that lingered in this place!

The Evil Spirit Aokelaier's expression remained unchanged as it grabbed that blue-gold Crystal.

At this moment, the eighteen eyes of that Beast of Darkness, which grew nine heads, also looked over, its gaze extremely terrifying.

After the Spirit of Delusion left, this region remained exactly as it was before, without the slightest change.

Even the dark history of a Deity was depicted; if he didn't die, who would?

But the next moment, a dazzling light suddenly radiated from within Aokelaier's body.

Outside the headquarters of the Light of Redemption.

Aaron muttered a passage recorded in the Dreamwalking Notes.

Even though it was faint, it persisted, causing the nine heads of the Beast of Darkness to reveal expressions of bewilderment.

As if triggering some resonance, a layer of glowing radiance suddenly erupted from those originally pitch-black broken walls and ruins.

—The remains of a Fourth Primordial Substance Extraordinary of the 'Tower'!

"It seems those Beasts of Darkness also dare not approach here too closely... I understand, as long as one approaches a certain range, one will hear that sigh... and then be burned!"

This was the curse after falling; these split personalities all belonged to 'Aokelaier' and were a part of it.

Hum hum!

"One burned by the solar corona... so that is how the 'Fallen Solar Corona' recovered. It devoured the existence known as the Extinguishing Wind, who was born from the Sun Fall, right here, obtaining the other's complete authority and power, thus maintaining its own existence and status..."

The radiance of redemption!

The void rippled faintly, and a figure wearing a complex and gorgeous formal dress appeared out of thin air.

That predecessor of Liliyat had evidently also received an infusion of Secret knowledge within the Spirit World, thereby faithfully recording all of this.

"Hmm, before he died, he even specifically left behind this mural... depicting what he saw during that sigh... Heh heh... In the Mysterious world, the more secrets you know, the faster you are likely to die! Cause of death—you knew too much!"

The Extinguishing Wind was transformed from a sigh at the time of the Scarlet Creator's death and should possess the status of a Deity.

But there was not much joy on his face; instead, he felt somewhat despondent.

"How did he come here in the first place? Relying on a Magical Item, or some kind of special high-level Talisman to hide his figure?"

The bewilderment faded from the nine faces of the massive Beast of Darkness, and they all revealed expressions of Wrath, crazily destroying everything around them, and even beginning to hunt their own kind...

That is why a sigh echoed in the deep pit!

"After devouring the Extinguishing Wind, it is not strange that the 'Fallen Solar Corona' could maintain the status of a 'Deity'... What is strange is that the 'Fallen Solar Corona' should have been the weakest one; I always thought that if the Deities fought, He should have been the first to fall, yet He successfully counter-killed... Did He seize a rare opportunity, or was some other existence helping Him?"

"That resentment from the time of a Deity's fall is enough to curse any Extraordinary below the level of an 'Immortal'... Did this Non-human Existence from the 'Professor' school just have the bad luck to hear that sigh and be turned into ashes?"

This kind of splitting was more dangerous than the monsters formed from previous psychological shadows; if it had been the Professor and his group, they might have been dismembered by multiple 'selves' and died in a very unique way.

The Evil Spirit—Aokelaier!

With the help of the special connection with Diate and the previous exploration, Aaron directly located this place to serve as an Anchor for the Evil Spirit to enter the Dream Realm!

After Aokelaier appeared, it did not linger, directly reaching out its hand to grab the blue-gold multifaceted Crystal in the ashes!

"Roar roar!"

At the same time, illusory and fallen faces identical to its own seemed to grow within its body.

Under the light, those illusory faces within its body first became bewildered, then continuously vanished—they had been purified!

This is the Purification of Aaron's Secret Source Power, and also what the Light of Redemption Cult tirelessly pursues—

Aaron woke up and looked at the remains of the "Tower" before him.

Aaron shook his head, stopped thinking about this question, and came close to the mural.

"A thousand years of waiting... a thousand years of persistence..."

"In the end, what is left?"
