Chapter 3846: Moon Witch, Corruption
Xianluolan Hotel, third-floor banquet hall.
The mid-to-high-level members of the Wizard faction gathered here. A banquet of several thousand people posed no pressure at all for the Xianluolan Hotel, which had been established for over three hundred years; this was evident from the orderly way the waiters served dishes and drinks.
However, Su Xiao, who should have been one of the protagonists, was currently enjoying dinner at a table near the corner. After eating his fill, he put down the wet napkin he had used to wipe his hands and looked at the Moon Witch, Seresil, who was surrounded by people like stars around the moon. The fact that she hadn't yet revealed her true colors meant that subsequent developments should not differ much from his estimates.
After confirming this in his heart, Su Xiao leaned back in his chair. This made him feel as if the surrounding music and laughter were fading away; the world seemed to gradually quiet down, and the environment around him was rendered in a fluorescent white. The chairs, the dining table, and the chandeliers all seemed to be covered in a layer of blurry gauze.
Drip, drip~
At the center of the ceiling, a black-blue liquid seeped out and dripped onto the floor. This black-blue liquid gradually infected the surroundings. The Magic Spirit stood behind Su Xiao's chair, her two arms wrapping around from both sides of his neck. Please do not mistake this for any shred of affection; the Magic Spirit simply craved Su Xiao's body. It could not be called a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest; it should be called a replacement.
The Magic Spirit's long hair hung down to Su Xiao's side neck, and then her head leaned in. Even though he didn't see it with his eyes, Su Xiao still clearly perceived the Magic Spirit's gradually curling lips. He raised his right hand, then suddenly curled his five fingers into a claw, crushing the Magic Spirit's head. The Magic Spirit behind him turned into smoke and scattered, being sealed back into Zhan Long Shan.
Su Xiao's eyes opened suddenly, and the surrounding scene faded away like a tide. As a Sword Art Grandmaster, he naturally would not be dragged into an illusion; everything just now was more like a semi-substantial spiritual world.
The Magic Spirit's invasion was becoming increasingly intense, having already begun to drag Su Xiao into the spiritual realm one after another. This made him decide that as long as he could survive this time and return to Reincarnation Paradise with bountiful gains, he must find a way to increase his Soul Strength. It had already reached 940 points, and 1000 points was not far off. As long as his Soul Strength was high enough, he could suppress the Magic Spirit again.
Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baja were eating happily. Su Xiao stood up and walked toward the side door, pushed it open to enter a corridor, found an empty reception room, closed the door, and sat on a single sofa. Alone in this quiet room, he checked the series of prompts that had just appeared.
【Prompt: You have killed the Dark Eldest Son.】
【You have obtained 1.5% of the World's Source.】
The Dark Eldest Son definitely counted as a boss-level unit. The problem was that it had been killed by the Demon Zerg, and specifically Demon Zerg enhanced by the World Power of the Witch World, so the gains were reduced to the extreme. There wasn't even a treasure chest, only the World Power gains after extreme reduction.
【Prompt: This kill gain has triggered the Void Tree notarization mechanism.】
【Checking the combat power of the Dark Eldest Son...】
【Checking the gain structure of this kill...】
【Check complete. Based on the Dark Eldest Son's combat power as a reference, this kill reward is the lowest gain ratio for a "Lord-level" unit currently.】
This prompt sounded quite convoluted, but in layman's terms, if a boss's comprehensive combat power is 10 and the kill reward is also 10, then 10÷10=1. The smaller the gain ratio number, the higher the gain. For example, 10 (combat power) ÷ 20 (gain) = 0.5, which is a very good gain ratio.
The situation Su Xiao was facing now was that the Dark Eldest Son's combat power rating was temporarily assessed at 5,728,800, while this gain, based on the comprehensive standards of the Witch World, was assessed at 620, meaning 5,728,800 ÷ 620 = 9,240.
This gain difference, which almost reached five digits, clearly broke the Void Tree's record in this regard; otherwise, the prompt wouldn't have appeared. Sure enough, a subsequent prompt appeared.
【You have completed the special achievement: Twice the Effort for Half the Result.】
【You have obtained the special title: Happy Transfer.】
【Happy Transfer】
Origin: Void Tree
Category: Special Title (One-time title)
Title Effect: Time Luck Reversal (Passive). Select a target for judgment. If the judgment passes, within the subsequent 72 hours (actually 24 hours), your luck will be swapped with the target's.
Prompt: Due to your Law-Breaking luck, this effect has been reduced from 72 hours to 24 hours.
Prompt: After using this ability once, this title will be consumed.
Introduction: Smiles do not disappear into thin air; they just transfer from your face to mine.
Sale Price: Cannot be sold.
Seeing the attributes of this title, Su Xiao suddenly felt that this kill reward was not a loss. If the timing for using this title was appropriate, he might obtain immeasurable gains.
The "luck" mentioned in this title was different from "fortune." Fortune derived luck. If it were just a swap of luck, Su Xiao's Law-Breaking fortune would not be affected. This was reassuring; after all, regarding Law-Breaking fortune, Su Xiao had not yet reached the level of complete understanding. At the very least, he would need to advance to the Supreme level to have a deep understanding.
Putting away the title, Su Xiao opened the Giant Spirit Clan's title shop. The faction reputation had already reached eight digits, but the items in the shop were limited, so he exchanged all of them.
【You have obtained Dark Ember x 2150 units.】
【You have obtained Soul Secret Technique: Heart Will (Passive).】
【You have obtained Giant Spirit Clan Relic: Letter x 999 units.】
【All items in this faction shop have been exchanged. Relevant notarization will be revoked, and this faction shop will be permanently closed.】
【Dark Ember】 was not needed for the time being; he would have to wait until he returned to Reincarnation Paradise to find Wood and use this material to enhance Hunting Night. The "good news" didn't stop there; he also obtained the 【King's Crown】. Looking across the myriad worlds, this was one of the five most difficult pieces of equipment to repair, and it would also need Wood to repair it in the future.
It could be said that Su Xiao definitely played a crucial role in the improvement of Wood's craftsmanship.
Su Xiao picked up the 【Soul Secret Technique: Heart Will (Passive)】 scroll and used it. As he crushed the scroll, a pale blue soul radiance flashed. He felt his soul energy consume rapidly, forming a will rune on his heart, which was then absorbed by his heart.
【You have mastered Soul Secret Technique: Heart Will Lv. EX.】
【Soul Secret Technique: Heart Will, Lv. EX (Passive)】
Skill Effect: Every 5 points of your Soul Strength will permanently increase your True Willpower attribute by 1 point.
Prompt: This soul-type passive can increase the True Willpower attribute up to 550 points.
【Your True Willpower attribute has permanently increased by 182 points.】
【Your True Willpower attribute has reached 550 points.】
Under normal circumstances, the feeling brought about by an increase in Willpower attribute was not obvious, but an increase of 182 points was too large. Su Xiao clearly felt that his resistance to erosion and invasion had significantly improved. If his Willpower attribute had been 550 points just now, the Magic Spirit would not have been able to drag him into the spiritual realm.
Su Xiao took out a 【Giant Spirit Clan Relic: Letter】. He had originally thought that this should be asking the exchanger to help them take revenge, but after opening it, the content of the letter, which was like a diary, never mentioned anything related to revenge. Instead, it recorded knowledge on how to purify and nourish the world they were in, perfectly and concisely.
These "Giant Spirit Clan Relics" could be given to people who needed them. As for why Su Xiao didn't master this related knowledge, it was because while improving his Pharmacy and Sealing skills, he had no extra time or energy, and also because the philosophies of the Law-Breaking faction and the Giant Spirit Clan were different.
The philosophy of the Law-Breaking faction was that whether a race gradually consumed the world they were in, or caused the environment of a world to decline day by day, that was their own business. A world's beginning, prosperity, decline, and collapse were like plants blooming and withering with the seasons; it was natural causality and also the inevitability of the cycle. It was just that this process for a world was very, very long.
But all of this had to be based on the premise of not affecting the neighbors. If the natural elements of a world weakened, the resulting Abyss outbreak would definitely not be limited to just that one world, but all the worlds in this vast star realm would be invaded by the Abyss.
If the star realm was excessively invaded by the Abyss, the final consequence would affect the Law-Breaking faction. Therefore, guarding the balance of elements and the Abyss was not just a duty or mission; it also involved the survival of the Law-Breakers. Of course, if there really was a super-large-scale Abyss invasion, if the Law-Breakers wanted to hide, they would definitely be the last to die, perishing later than the Spellcasters or other large Void races.
Ultimately, the members of the Law-Breaking faction were a group of strong individuals whose good and evil alignments were blurred, but who were unwilling to sit and wait for death. Rather than waiting for a super-large-scale Abyss invasion to come and turn everything into darkness, it was better to take action and maintain balance as much as possible. The star realm where the myriad worlds were located was different from a single world. A world would collapse; this was the inevitability of the cycle, but the star realm would definitely not collapse. If the living beings of the myriad worlds courted death, it would only be the extinction of the living beings of the myriad worlds; the star realm would definitely be fine.
In essence, the star realm was conceptual, while the world was material. The philosophy of the Giant Spirit Clan was to let a world exist for as long as possible. Their hearts were full of positive energy such as nature, love, and kindness. Even if they encountered malice, they would not retaliate with malice.
The Law-Breaking faction, on the other hand, was: as long as the star realm was fine, other things had nothing to do with me. Or: "Hmm? You guys want to collapse the world you're in? There's such a thing?! When it collapses, you must notify me; I'll definitely go watch the fun." And: "As an enemy, this treasure of yours is not bad, but since I saw it, it's mine." As for becoming a mortal enemy with them, it was: "Today will definitely be the end of your life; no matter what, I must kill you."
The rules of the Law-Breaking faction were very few, so few that there were only a few. Not to mention anything else, just the fact that Grimm Gillian was not expelled from the Law-Breaking faction showed how few rules this faction had.
It was to be expected. Apart from rare reliable good people like Star-Swallowing Arcas, other Law-Breakers all had their own shortcomings, so they didn't mock each other. Of course, someone as vicious as Grimm Gillian had rarely appeared since the Law-Breaking faction existed.
The gains from the reputation shop were not small, but this was not the main event. Su Xiao opened a sealed box. This was sent by Caesar in the evening, and it was the gain from "stocking up" at the Disaster Legion this time.
【You have opened the sealed box.】
【You have obtained Soul Crystal Essence x 192.】
【You have obtained Primordial Fragment x 6.】
The total gain from "stocking up" at the Disaster Legion this time was split between Su Xiao and the three scumbags of the Arbitrators. The three Arbitrators did not have an urgent need for resources to improve their strength, so all these resources went to Su Xiao, while the remaining high-value items were split among them.
Besides these gains, there was one more thing. Previously, during the world-level teleportation, Barbados had crashed into an object in the star realm, swallowed it into its belly, and teleported back to the Zerg base in the Eternal Light World.
When Jila saw this object, she decisively used her follower authority to offer it to Su Xiao. This object was currently in the notarization stage of Reincarnation Paradise, meaning it was temporarily stored in the Material Hall. Su Xiao would have to use his Hunter Brand and pay a certain amount of Soul Coins as storage fees to retrieve it later.
Jila uploaded a photo of this object in the squad channel. At first glance, it looked like a huge brain, over three meters in diameter, with many damaged parts, spilling out the nerve structures inside. After observation, it was discovered that there was an eye on the front of this thing.
This felt like a mass of brain full of nerve tissue, wrapping a giant eye. This giant eye had six pupils, six pupils symmetrical to each other, and then a black line extended from each, forming a spiral pupil at the center of the six pupils.
However, this spiral pupil had already dissipated, and on the surface of this giant eye monster, there was also a black "ф". Seeing this black mark, Su Xiao immediately thought that this existence had been forcibly executed by Reincarnation Paradise.
If he wasn't mistaken, this thing should have been drifting in the star realm. Existences that could drift in the star realm were all extraordinary, such as the Frenzy of Growth and the Lord of the Old Days. They usually drifted in the star realm or space gaps, mostly in the star realm.
He wouldn't delve into the origin of this giant eye monster for now; he could only observe it carefully after seeing the real thing. Compared to this, the gains from the "Moon Stone" made people feel very good. Morey, Moon Apostle, and Hao Mei all came to participate in this banquet. In Morey's words, after working hard in the Moon Stone mine for a world progress, they should eat something good. The meaning was obvious: let Su Xiao treat them.
Learning that they were coming to the most luxurious Xianluolan Hotel in the Witch World, the three of them were in a great mood. As a result, after arriving, they found out that it was actually a funeral feast. But it was the same; at this time, all three of them had turned into foodies.
Knock, knock, knock~
The door was knocked. Morey pushed the door and poked her head in. After looking left and right and finding that only Su Xiao was in the room, she flashed in. She leaned her back against the door, listening carefully. A few seconds later, she let out a long sigh of relief.
"..."
Su Xiao stopped the wine glass he had raised halfway, looking at Morey's confusing behavior. Noticing Su Xiao's gaze, Morey made a "shh" gesture and lowered her voice, saying:
"Bai Ye, I found someone following me."
Hearing this, Su Xiao's brows furrowed slightly. His first guess was that perhaps the Platinum Apostle was targeting Morey. The problem was that with Morey's "skinny leg" personality, it was difficult to distinguish her style of conduct, whether her fate had been devoured by the Platinum Apostle.
Su Xiao signaled Morey to sit on the sofa opposite. After Morey sat down, he took out a Soul Coin and said:
"I'll perform a magic trick for you. Look at this."
Su Xiao let Morey look at the Soul Coin pressed against his thumb. Morey was first puzzled, then watched intently. Then Su Xiao flicked the Soul Coin in his hand, adding a trace of soul energy to it. It wouldn't cause damage, but it would definitely be very painful.
Snap~!
"Ouch~"
Morey was hit and tilted her head back, leaning on the sofa again. Her pink short hair was all combed backward. She sat there in a daze for a second before covering her forehead with both hands.
"It hurts!"
Morey turned into a caterpillar on the multi-person sofa, covering her forehead. After more than ten seconds, she finally recovered, looking at Su Xiao angrily, and asked: "What are you doing?"
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak, just flicked the Soul Coin in his hand again.
Snap!
"Wow~!"
Morey's forehead was hit again. This time, she covered her forehead and tossed and turned on the sofa for half a minute before angrily asking: "What are you doing? Hitting me for no reason, my forehead is all swollen... Uh~, why isn't it swollen? I even wanted to extort a few bottles of recovery potions from you."
Su Xiao kept his perception fully open throughout the process to observe Morey's reaction. This was some experience he had summarized from his confrontation with the Platinum Apostle. Those whose fate had been devoured would uncontrollably surge with killing intent when enduring pain. This was a decrease in self-control caused by having their fate devoured.
Morey didn't show this expression at all throughout the process. The first time she was hit by the Soul Coin, she was confused and puzzled, because Su Xiao never attacked for no reason. The second time, she was very angry, and then she glared at Su Xiao fiercely, beating Su Xiao up in her heart. As for why she didn't put it into action, it was really because she couldn't beat him; otherwise, she definitely wouldn't be cowardly. Based on comprehensive judgment, Morey was 100% fine.
After Su Xiao roughly explained the devouring of fate by the Platinum Apostle, Morey gasped. She had faced the Grey Gentleman and knew how terrifying these super-old-schemer-level violators were. She brushed the hair in front of her forehead and said: "How about you do it again? I seemed very angry just now. Is this having my fate devoured?"
"You're fine."
"Really?"
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak, just flicked the Soul Coin in his hand.
Snap~!
"It hurts! Why did you hit me suddenly? Ah~ I'm dying, it hurts to death!"
Morey, who turned into a caterpillar on the sofa again, took a long time to recover. She took out a large box of "Moon Stones," thought for a moment, and opened it, preparing to grab one as compensation for being hit. But seeing the Soul Coin that had hit her three times clamped between Su Xiao's right index and middle fingers, she took the opportunity to say: "Look, the quality of the Moon Stones this time is good, right?"
"..."
"I'm leaving. Hope to see you in the next world, let's cooperate again. By the way, where are you going in the next world? We can form a team."
The more Morey talked, the more tempted she became. The gains from the "Moon Stones" this time made her want to cooperate with Su Xiao for another world progress. Although her Soul Coin wallet was very hurt at the beginning of this cooperation, and she was beaten up, judging from the current gains, the gains of the previous 3-5 world progresses couldn't compare to this one. This time, Su Xiao was only interested in "Moon Stones" and had promised at the beginning of the cooperation that other mineral veins discovered by the Apocalypse sisters had nothing to do with him.
The Apocalypse sisters thus obtained a huge amount of other mineral gains. However, Morey, Moon Apostle, and Hao Mei did not have a greedy personality. This huge gain made them send 80% of the "Moon Stones" to Su Xiao. According to the originally scheduled distribution ratio, Su Xiao was to get 30% of the "Moon Stones."
【You have obtained Moon Stone x 96 (Eternal-level ore, each is a standard unit).】
【Prompt: One of the top Eternal-level ores. After the Hunter returns to Reincarnation Paradise, you can directly exchange the "Moon Stones" obtained this time for rare Origin Stones. The exchange ratio is: 5 standard units of Moon Stone blocks for 1 rare Origin Stone of random grade.】
Su Xiao only knew before that five Moon Stones could be exchanged for one rare Origin Stone, but he really didn't know the specific exchange rules. He even thought that the number of Moon Stones required was determined by the quality of the rare Origin Stone. Now it turned out to be a random grade.
This was similar to a lottery, with one chance for every five Moon Stones, a guaranteed win, but whether it was a consolation prize, a small prize, a medium prize, or a grand prize, it depended on luck.
"Why so long? We have to go to the teleportation point outside the city to return to Apocalypse Paradise."
Moon Apostle poked her head in through the door. Seeing this, Morey's eyes lit up. She signaled Moon Apostle to come over and sit beside her quickly. Moon Apostle suddenly became a bit vigilant because every time Morey teased her, it was with this expression. The friendship between Moon Apostle and Morey could be described in one sentence: when Moon Apostle was in danger, no one was more reliable than Morey, and no one knew better how to save her. But when there was no danger around, Morey was the biggest source of danger.
Because Su Xiao was present, Moon Apostle felt that there might be something important to say, so she walked into the room and sat down beside Morey. Morey exaggeratedly described the Platinum Apostle and the other party's means of devouring fate. Moon Apostle, who was not very brave to begin with, listened with a pale face.
"Don't be afraid, I know a way to test if fate has been devoured, and, by the way, I'll perform a magic trick for you."
Morey said excitedly. Moon Apostle asked hesitantly: "Re... ally?"
"Really, look at this."
Morey pressed her thumb hard, learning Su Xiao's way to flick the large-sized Apocalypse Paradise commemorative Soul Coin.
Snap~!
Moon Apostle was tilted back by the Soul Coin, and then sat there in a daze, her right eye circle turning blue at a speed visible to the naked eye. After being in a daze for a few more seconds, her lips began to tremble, and tears gradually flowed out. Morey had seen Moon Apostle cry before. Moon Apostle didn't shed tears easily; once she cried, she could cry silently for half a month. Last time, she forcibly dragged Moon Apostle to bungee jump from a height of tens of thousands of meters, and she had experienced the horror of Moon Apostle not saying a word for half a month afterward, silently shedding tears.
"Uh~, I missed. Listen to me, this method was taught to me by Bai Ye. Look, my forehead was also flicked, see?"
Morey brushed her hair with one hand. Moon Apostle had already braced herself, but after seeing Morey's forehead without any marks, her lips began to tremble again, and she couldn't hold it anymore.
"It was all taught by Bai Ye, Bai Ye... Eh? Where is he?"
Morey saw that the opposite sofa was empty. He had actually left while she was busy apologizing to her best friend. Thinking of this, she said angrily: "This bastard, he actually slipped away. Next time I catch him, I must..."
"..."
At the bar on the side, Su Xiao, who was choosing wine in the refrigerator, stood up with a bottle of wine upon hearing the sound. For a moment, the air almost solidified.
A moment later, Morey, with a panda eye, pushed the door and walked out of the room. Moon Apostle behind her held back her laughter. Just as the saying goes, smiles do not disappear into thin air; they just transferred from Morey's face to Moon Apostle's face.
The banquet didn't break up until the second half of the night. At 2:00 AM, in the Moon Witch's office, the room was dim. Moon Witch Seresil sat behind the desk, while Su Xiao sat across from her.
"Sky City no longer exists, and the organization 'Star Tower' has naturally disappeared. The contract I have regarding this force also no longer exists."
Seresil took out an old piece of parchment, placed it on the table, and continued:
"Bai Ye, you should have already guessed the true purpose of my inviting you to the Witch World."
"Witch."
Su Xiao had guessed before, but he didn't know if the guess was accurate.
"Yes, it's Witch. Our first Moon Witch, more people call her 'Initial Witch'. She is the protector of all wizards and the guardian of the living beings of this world. Bai Ye, have you ever wondered why this Transcendent World is not called Wizard World, but Witch World? Because, in this Transcendent World, there is an Initial Witch named Titapeya. She is the beginning of the wizard system, and now she may also be the end..."
Moon Apostle began to tell the biggest secret of the Witch World: Initial Witch Titapeya.
That was the era of Abyss invasion. As one of the masters of elemental witchcraft, the Initial Witch fought against the Abyss. Because of her ability far exceeding others and her personality charm that made people admire her, she soon became the leader of the wizard faction, leading wizards to resist the Abyss together with the Ancient King faction until they won.
In fact, during the period of resisting the Abyss, wizards using elemental witchcraft had cases of corruption. But at that time, it was generally believed that this was due to the invasion of the Abyss and had nothing to do with elemental witchcraft. However, later, when the wizard faction occupied half of the Wizard Continent and this world became a Transcendent World, after the Abyss and natural elements reached a balance, there were still cases of corruption within the wizard faction.
This aroused the vigilance of Initial Witch Titapeya and several wizard elders. After years of research, they finally thoroughly studied the cause of corruption. Using elemental witchcraft meant that natural elements had to pass through the body. The trace amounts of Abyss power contained in natural elements would inevitably settle in the body, triggering "corruption" after long-term accumulation.
This result made all wizard high-level officials sigh, but there was no other way. This was the price of obtaining power. They could all bear it. It was the wizards who protected the safety of billions of civilians of all races. Their enemies were never just the Ancient King, but also those terrifying existences from the forbidden zones of life in this Transcendent World.
However, corruption was actually more terrifying than wizards imagined. The "corruption energy" mutated from the power of the Abyss would not dissipate due to the death of wizards. This meant that in the future, the more wizards there were, the more corruption energy there would be, until the environment was filled with corruption energy.
In that case, as long as the wizard system was inherited, even becoming a wizard apprentice would have a high probability of corruption. The wizard faction would be equivalent to annihilation.
This power of elemental witchcraft could not be abandoned; abandoning it would lead to rapid extinction. But continuing to use this power, corruption would bring chronic death. As for finding a way to eliminate corruption energy, there was indeed a way, but the price was too high.
After each wizard corrupted, the corruption energy produced had subtle differences. To eliminate these corruption energies, each type of corruption energy required corresponding resources, methods, techniques, etc. Some wizard elders calculated that processing 10,000 to 15,000 types of corruption energy would require more than 90% of the resources of this Transcendent World, which was completely unaffordable.
Under such circumstances, how did the wizard faction develop? The answer is that Initial Witch Titapeya consumed a massive amount of resources to build the "Moon Sanctuary" on the moon. The function of the "Moon Sanctuary" was that as long as it was night, the "Moon Sanctuary" on the moon would absorb the corruption energy of this world.
Therefore, in the history of wizards, there were more than billions of corrupted wizards, but the environment of this world did not contain corruption energy; it was all absorbed by the "Moon Sanctuary."
The "Moon Sanctuary" cost a huge amount, but this decision was correct. However, there was a key problem: the "Moon Sanctuary" needed a core. In this world, nothing would actively absorb corruption energy.
Since there wasn't one, then create one, for example... Initial Witch Titapeya, who chose to corrupt herself. After she actively corrupted, she ordered people to seal herself into the "Moon Sanctuary." She became the core of this sanctuary, absorbing all the corruption energy that appeared in this world.
This was also why the first Moon Witch Titapeya suddenly disappeared, and didn't even have much time to cultivate a successor. Time waited for no one; at that time, the corruption energy contained in the environment of this world was already not low.
Therefore, the name of this Transcendent World was finally called the Witch World, because there was a witch here named Titapeya.
The growth of the wizard faction was unstoppable, even defeating the Ancient King faction. From then on, the Witch World entered a development stage, and the establishment of the "Star Tower" was actually to guard the "Moon Sanctuary" and the Initial Witch inside. This was also why Moon Witch Seresil was once a member of the "Star Tower."
The "Star Disk" obtained by Su Xiao was actually the key to the "Moon Sanctuary" on the moon. As for the five portions of Dark Blood, they were part of the "Star Disk" and also gave future generations the power to guard the "Star Disk."
More accurately, these Dark Bloods were actually part of the source blood of Initial Witch Titapeya after corruption.
Su Xiao had wondered before where the ultra-high concentration of corruption energy in the Dark Blood came from. What kind of wizard would produce such rich corruption energy after corruption? It was indeed too exaggerated.
This was also why, in this era, the Ancient King was willing to be one of the testers and temporarily keep a portion of Dark Blood. Initial Witch Titapeya had the qualification to make this ancient king do so. The twilight ancient king tested whether the person who was about to challenge was qualified for the guardian of this world. What was wrong with this?
And now, both the "Moon Sanctuary" and Initial Witch Titapeya had problems. The corruption of the "Moon Sanctuary" was about to overflow. As for the Initial Witch, her situation was even more serious.
There was another crucial point: the "Moon Sanctuary" had powerful sealing power. This seal was not only aimed at corruption, but also at the suppression of combat power. It was because the Initial Witch was afraid that she would be eroded by corruption to the point of losing her mind and destroying the "Moon Sanctuary."
Therefore, the strongest combat power that could be exerted in the "Moon Sanctuary" was the Supreme level. Speaking of which, this sealing technique was provided by the Law-Breaking faction, which was a condensed version of the "Super-World-Level Sealing Technique." The latter was aimed at a world, while the former was aimed at a building.
A more precise statement was that anything higher than the Supreme level couldn't even enter the "Moon Sanctuary," and there would be no reaction when using the "Star Disk." This was one of the insurance measures set up at the beginning, worrying that a Supreme with ulterior motives would use the "Star Disk" to enter the "Moon Sanctuary" and use the powerful attack means of a Supreme to break this sealed building from the inside. Once this situation occurred, the Witch World would be finished. The "Moon Sanctuary" could be rebuilt, but was there really a second "Initial Witch"? That was the top Supreme who fought out of the Abyss era.
Therefore, Moon Witch Seresil and Chairman Po. Yen had both challenged the Initial Witch when they were still Supreme, but they all failed. This was also why the Chairman said before that he was no longer qualified; he had used up his chance that time and lost miserably.
Su Xiao, who defeated the Progenitor and the Star Realm Devourer in the Eternal Light World, was naturally noticed by Moon Witch Seresil immediately, and then Su Xiao was invited to the Witch World.
The "Moon Sanctuary" that was about to overflow gradually stopped absorbing corruption energy. Therefore, the probability of corruption in the Witch World was getting higher and higher. Before, the City Lord of Sky City took the initiative to help take the blame, which covered up this situation.
Compared to the more serious problem of the "Moon Sanctuary," for some reason, the Initial Witch, who had been silent in the "Moon Sanctuary," suddenly attacked the inside of the sanctuary. She wanted to escape. According to Moon Witch Seresil and others, the Initial Witch had been eroded by corruption for so many years, and another consciousness should have been generated, that is, a new personality appeared.
Among the two personalities of the Initial Witch, the White Witch was the former Initial Witch, which was actually the guardian god of the Witch World. The Black Witch consciousness that appeared due to corruption erosion longed to break through the seal and descend to the Witch World. Just thinking about it, one knew that the Black Witch born from corruption would not have any kindness.
Regarding this point, Moon Witch Seresil and the Chairman had deep feelings, because they had both fought against the Initial Witch with the Black Witch consciousness, and even had some communication. The Black Witch told Seresil one sentence: when she broke through the seal, don't think about having a living being alive in the Witch World.
Judging from the current situation, the "Moon Sanctuary" shouldn't last long. As long as there were still wizards in the Witch World who died due to corruption, the Initial Witch who could use corruption energy would have endless energy.
Now, the ultimate commission the Witch World wanted to give to Su Xiao was to defeat the Initial Witch of the "Moon Sanctuary."
After hearing this, Su Xiao confirmed one point: his main quest, talent quest, and the last type of hunter bounty were all pointing to the Initial Witch of the "Moon Sanctuary."
【Talent Awakening Quest: Shadow of Law-Breaking (Second Stage): Kill "Initial Corruption."】
【Main Quest: Moonlight of Corruption (Final Stage): Use the Star Disk to go to the "Moon Sanctuary" and kill the Black Witch.】
【Bounty 5: Agglomerate: Find the corruption agglomerate and submit it to Reincarnation Paradise (need to pay a bounty deposit of 10 ounces of Space-Time Power to activate this bounty. Because the difficulty of this bounty is extremely high, after completion, you will receive 100-3000 times the additional bounty, depending on the quantity of corruption agglomerate obtained).】 ===== CHAPTER 3847 =====
