Chapter 1093: Chaotic Future

"A hidden fourth Pillar?" Lady "Magician" blurted out in astonishment.

She clearly had not heard of this matter either.

"Chariot" Lu Mi was equally surprised.

He could not help but glance at Lady "Magician," muttering in his heart:

Her humanity is maintained very well...

Mr. "Fool," shrouded in gray-white mist, explained in a calm voice:

"This world has already been born from chaos. Besides the ruler of the Astral Realm, the Lord of the Spirit Realm, and the ruler of reality, there is one more important symbol. It symbolizes the end of fate, the destruction of the universe, and the outcome of all things. Under such symbolism, even 'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun' and the 'Fallen Mother Goddess' will completely fall, their spirits will cease to exist, and everything will return to chaos. Of course, the hidden fourth Pillar will also have the same outcome, and it will not be much later than us."

"Or rather, His self-destruction brings about all endings."

"Mr. 'Fool,' which Sefirot does this correspond to?" Lady "Magician" asked curiously before "Chariot" Lu Mi could.

Mr. "Fool's" fingers tapped lightly on the edge of the bronze long table:

"It is formed by the aggregation of two Sefirot: one is the 'City of Calamity,' and the other is the 'River of Eternal Darkness'."

Lady "Magician" immediately looked at "Chariot" Lu Mi diagonally opposite.

"Chariot" Lu Mi felt a stir in his heart, raised his right hand, and looked at the pitch-black, dead "pinhole" in his palm.

Mr. "Fool" continued:

"The best way to transcend the Sequence is to first become a Sequence 0 True God of one pathway, then accommodate the corresponding Sefirot, and then the Uniquenesses and Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics of other pathways under the Sefirot. There is no ritual that can assist."

"This is generally speaking. Some pathways have their own characteristics in the details, such as the 'Demoness' and 'Hunter' pathways, but in the end, one must still first become a Sequence 0 True God of one pathway to accommodate the Sefirot, rather than becoming a dual-pathway True God and then trying. The latter has hope of success, but it is not that great."

"When the 'Red Priest' or 'Primordial Demoness' accommodates the 'City of Calamity' and continues to occupy the Uniqueness and one Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic of the adjacent pathway, becoming the 'Source of Calamity' and 'Destructive Disaster,' then accommodating the 'River of Eternal Darkness' and the Uniqueness and Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic of the corresponding pathway, one can become the hidden fourth Pillar, becoming the end of fate and the destroyer of the universe."

"Conversely, the Sequence 0 True Gods corresponding to 'Darkness,' 'Death,' and 'Twilight Giant' can also become the hidden fourth Pillar starting from accommodating the 'River of Eternal Darkness'."

"Now, the 'Evernight Goddess' has already obtained the Uniquenesses of the 'Twilight Giant' and 'Death,' and has mastered the required Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics. She is currently deepening her connection with that Sefirot through the 'Netherworld Daoist' and the tributary leaked from the 'River of Eternal Darkness'."

Through the "Netherworld Daoist"... Lu Mi suddenly understood the Evernight Church's emphasis on Amandina.

In the past half year, they had not had much contact with Amandina, but they knew her general situation:

The "Evernight Goddess" Church had already established direct contact with this student of the "Netherworld Daoist," with Mr. "Star" personally in charge. Now, Amandina had obtained the Beyonder materials corresponding to the Sequence 5 "Spirit Warlock," was digesting the "Soul-Stirrer" potion, preparing for the advancement ritual, and then waiting for the new round of gifts at the "Dream Festival" at the end of the year.

Her relationship with the "Evernight Goddess" Church had become very close.

Just as Lu Mi suddenly felt a worry, Mr. "Fool" continued:

"You should have heard it too. The hidden fourth Pillar is related to the destruction of the universe and the end of all things. It will not appear under normal circumstances."

"As for whether one has to wait until the universe reaches the end of its life for the 'City of Calamity' and the 'River of Eternal Darkness' to merge and reunite to give birth to the fourth Pillar, or whether the fourth Pillar can be forcibly born through aggregation but will bring about the destruction of the universe and all things, unless He immediately falls into a deep sleep or is passively split, everything will perish. I cannot see clearly for the time being. The one worshipped by the 'Aurora Society' currently leans more toward the latter situation."

In other words, the hidden fourth Pillar either cannot be born for a long time, or can only be used as a last resort for mutual destruction or intimidating enemies? "Chariot" Lu Mi gradually felt relieved.

Then, he pondered the purpose of Mr. "Fool" telling him about the hidden fourth Pillar and what revelation it carried:

"For me, knowledge in this area is meaningless for the time being..."

"Or, can I first jump to the Sequence 1 of 'Death' or 'Twilight Giant' to better borrow the power of '0-01' and narrow the gap between myself and the 'Red Angel' Medici?"

"If I could defeat this King of Angels, obtain the two Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics of the 'Hunter' pathway from Him, then find a way to lower my status, expel the original Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics, return to the 'Weather Warlock' level, re-advance, become the King of Angels of the 'Hunter' pathway, and accommodate '0-01'..."

"Although lowering status and re-advancing have great risks and certain hidden dangers, it is much better than letting me compete with the 'Red Angel' Medici at the Sequence 2 level... However, I will not fight the 'Red Angel' one-on-one. I am a Major Arcana card of the 'Tarot Club' and the patron saint—no, patron Angel—of the Fool Church. 'Hunters' all rely on the strength of the masses. Why fight one-on-one?"

"If Franca and Jenna advance later, if the ritual is difficult or the Beyonder characteristics are unobtainable, they can also consider switching to one of the three pathways of 'Darkness,' 'Death,' and 'Twilight Giant'..."

As "Chariot" Lu Mi pondered, Mr. "Fool" looked at him and said:

"After switching to a hidden adjacent pathway, if you do not expel the corresponding Beyonder characteristics, you will be unable to accommodate the Sefirot in the future and will be rejected by the corresponding Sefirot."

"Also, after becoming a 'Weather Warlock,' your fate has become chaotic and full of changes. I am not omniscient, nor am I omnipotent, so I can no longer see it clearly. I can only remind you that you need to be very careful from now on."

When advancing to "Weather Warlock," Lu Mi had confirmed that the residual spiritual imprint of the "Blood Emperor" Alista Tudor had not strengthened or resurrected within him.

From that moment on, he knew that the resurrection arrangements of the "Blood Emperor" would arrive and erupt in subsequent events, and this could not be predicted for the time being. Mr. "Fool's" reminder deepened his vigilance in this regard:

Arrangements that even Mr. "Fool," a Great One, could not provide effective revelations for were definitely not simple!

"Magician" Fors, who had chatted with Mr. "Fool" many times, knew after hearing Mr. "Fool's" words that today's small gathering, or rather the "common sense" teaching for the new Angel of the "Tarot Club," should come to an end.

She looked at "Chariot" Lu Mi and said:

"You should now be clear about the current situation and the root of the apocalypse. After that, you will be able to see the essence directly by analyzing some things."

"As an Angel who has been senior to you for several years, I will share three experiences at the end:"

"First, the previous sequences need to be re-acted out because the potion you consumed contains the Beyonder characteristics of all previous sequences. For you, the most important thing is to make up for the acting of 'Iron-Blooded Knight' and 'War Bishop.' 'Hunter,' 'Provoker,' 'Pyromaniac,' 'Conspirer,' and 'Reaper' can all be naturally and effectively digested in the battles you initiate or the wars you start in the future."

"Second, go to different regions to improve the local weather and leave behind legends. This is not only a need to digest the 'Weather Warlock' potion but also a must-do for you to spread faith and obtain more anchors."

"Third, Mr. 'Fool' has already explained the difference between divinity and humanity very clearly. Combining my own experience, I have a realization: distinguish between the normal desires brought by the second layer of humanity and the abnormal desires created by the first layer of humanity and divinity. Resist the latter and channel the former. Do not be too repressed and restrained, but also do not be greedy and indulgent."

"Chariot" Lu Mi listened carefully and pondered:

"Thank you, Lady 'Magician'."

"Magician" Fors laughed at herself:

"If you have any new realizations in this regard later, you can also tell me."

"I have to prepare for advancing to Sequence 1."

"Sequence 1 of the 'Door' pathway?" "Chariot" Lu Mi asked with slight surprise.

In his view, Sequence 2 "Traveler" of the "Door" pathway was the sequence with the highest probability of survival when the apocalypse arrived, without exception:

First, before reaching Sequence 1, one will not be focused on by the "Outer Deities." Second, one possesses the ability to travel in the Starry Sky and can carry a group of people. Afterward, one can completely find a planet located in a "remote" area of the universe with relatively suitable conditions, use one's own recording ability or carry Beyonders of different pathways to make it livable, and re-develop civilization.

Lady "Magician" nodded:

"Right, 'Star Key.' The Beyonder characteristics and auxiliary materials are not lacking. The Abraham family has long wanted to give them to me. The price is to protect their clan, let the name Abraham not be cut off, and let at least one Sequence 1 Angel be born among them. Afterward, if the apocalypse arrives, the first thing I have to do is to transfer them away."

"The good news is that they now have several Saints. The bad news is that they are still far from digesting them. Sequence 3 'Wanderer' still needs to travel in the Starry Sky to digest them quickly."

"The ritual is actually not troublesome. Find a heavy planet that is constantly rotating and emitting signals, approach it, land on it, and then find a way to establish a sufficient occult connection with it."

"The first part of this ritual is very dangerous, and the latter part is very difficult. But if there is Mr. 'Fool's' help, it is not a big problem. Directly 'grafting' me to the corresponding planet satisfies the conditions. Hmm, the premise is that I can withstand that kind of pressure."

"The trouble now is that the 'Traveler' potion has not been completely digested. In these years, I have flashed everywhere. The number of times is enough, and the term 'Traveler' is also satisfied, but it is not considered traveling..."

Speaking of this, Lady "Magician" suddenly closed her mouth.

She felt that she was complaining about work, while her boss, who could easily crush her to death, was at the head of the long table.

Listening to Lady "Magician's" words, Lu Mi suddenly discovered a problem:

Mr. "Fool" actually does not have to deal with the subsequent planetary apocalypse, because no "Outer Deity" will snatch the "Sefirah"—accommodating this Sefirah that possesses the symbolism of a Pillar will only lead them to self-destruction...
