Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 446 One of the Brands

Tiansi themselves are phantoms living in the dream world, and they can all enter dreams directly. Just like birds can fly and fish can swim.

Even ordinary phantoms basically have this ability, as long as they can reach the material world by their own means.

As long as he can fall into a dream, he can easily destroy mortals from within the dream.

Curse, hallucination, implanted suggestion, modification of memory, or direct destruction of the soul.

After all, mortals are beings living in the material world, and it is only when they dream that the afterimage of their thoughts is projected into the dream world.

Except for professions such as dream monks with the characteristics of "dream walkers", mortals have no ability to resist in the dream world, and they do not even have conscious self-awareness.

This is also the nature of certain "apocalypses," "precognitive dreams," or "demon possession."

——Of course, the conscious dream-walking monk actually has no ability to resist.

If you are attacked by a phantom in the dream world, you will only be able to die a little more awake. On the contrary, you will be attacked more easily because you are conscious... just like a transcendent in the promotion ceremony.

When extraordinary people enter dreams with their waking will, their souls directly enter the dream world.

Before the "host" system was popularized, the first thing that the dream world's promoters had to do was to survive from the soul-hunting demons - but in areas other than the promotion ceremony, the dream monk did not have a "host" Sheltered.

Those creatures who have lucid dreams and wander into the dream world unconsciously can easily come into contact with the phantoms of the dream world.

It may be a good thing and bring about some adventures, such as meeting a knight, sage or angel, and learning swordsmanship, spells or divine arts in a dream; it may also be possible to meet a goblin, the God of Death or a heroic spirit from the Kingdom of Shadows. , and was introduced to the kingdom of fairies, the underworld or the kingdom of shadows, unpredictable things happened; they may also directly encounter Lingbo and have their souls frozen directly, or they may encounter demons and become possessed.

Playing with pigeons with your life belongs to you.

Curse masters on the path of transcendence and love also do not have the ability to walk awake in the dream world, but they can also attack each other from the dream world through mediums. The writers of the Path of Beauty also have the ability to weave and modify dreams.

However, this kind of dreaming obviously has limitations.

They are ineffective against devout believers of the Pillar God, or objects to which blessings are directly applied.

Asylum from a higher being protects the mortal soul. It's like a firewall, blocking these fragments of thought from having too deep a connection with the body, thereby blocking those influences.

The blessing of the Pillar God can protect against the attacks of Tiansi and the Apostles, and the protection of Tiansi and the Apostles can also protect against the attacks of the Curse Masters.

Only the weak blessings obtained through routine prayers can greatly increase the difficulty of being cursed - complete immunity is impossible, and Aiwass will be forcibly marked at this moment.

But at least there is no need to worry about Xiong Tiansi hitting people directly along the network cable.

But Aiwass was a little confused.

He actually wasn't sure whether he was being protected by the Silver Crowned Dragon or Si Zhu...

...Or is it the Snake Father or the Twin Mirror? Even Huan Tiansi?

All in all, the effect of this shelter is pretty good.

"Xiong Tiansi has murderous intentions towards me," Aiwass looked at the confused Lily and explained to her, "It should be because of the matter of the giant prince.

"Not to mention whether Xiong Tiansi wanted him to be promoted to an apostle...but he was obviously eyeing me because of this incident. Maybe before that, when I was watched by the Silver Crown Dragon, he had already Targeted me."

Or, it could be because of a "divine entity." Aiwass added in his mind.

"But even Xiong Tiansi, who has a clear intention to kill me, cannot directly enter my dream."

Aiwass chuckled and said: "He has found me, but he cannot figure out the shape of my dream. This actually exposes his weakness."

Even though he was being chased by Tiansi, Aiwass still didn't care.

Because Aiwass knew that if Xiong Tiansi wanted to kill him, there were only two ways.

Either destroy Aiwass from the material world, or find various ways to leave more and more imprints on him and continuously strengthen the connection between him and Aiwass's body - after gathering seven imprints, Xiong Tiansi You can bypass the protection of the Pillar God, fall directly into Aiwass's dream in the dream world, attack and kill Aiwass.

If other Tiansi wanted to kill him, they would definitely choose the latter.

But with Xiong Tiansi's character, he would definitely choose the former. At least the first few rounds will be reckless.

Although He is a bad God, He does disdain intrigues.

As for the material world... that is a realm restricted by the "Sand Timepiece", the Pillar God of Balance.

No matter how powerful a Tiansi or an apostle is, he must be "balanced" in the material world.

All enemies in the material world can be defeated.

Those unbeatable enemies will also be "balanced" to the point where they can theoretically be defeated after falling into the material world.

In other words, even if Xiong Tiansi wants to send an apostle to hunt down Aiwass, he must abide by the "fairness" rules of the sand clock and defeat Aiwass's night demon in the material world first.

You know, when Aiwass and Night Demon easily defeated Succubus a month ago, it was as easy as Zhao Yun's seven in and seven outs on Changban Slope - Aiwass even led Night Demon by one position throughout the whole process!

...It can only be said that A Dou is very strong and he did not even cry.

There's nothing you can do about it, the Summoner is like this. Even if Aiwas was later promoted to become a scholar of mortal sin, he would still be a "scholar" after all, and he would still be able to suppress those beasts of mortal sin with the power of Tiansi and Pillar God.

Only when Aiwass truly becomes the master of the Sin Beast and can merge with the Sin Beast at any time will his life-saving ability make a fundamental leap... from a summoning profession to a transformation profession.

——The Lord of the Great Beast, the Lord of the Sinful Beast, the Great Beast Lord...you can call it whatever you want. Essentially the Lord of the Beast of Sin.

That was a brand new profession developed by "Aiwass", named by the original Aiwass Moriarty.

That is to turn oneself into the seventh deadly sin - to put the mark of "arrogance" on one's own body. He can truly command the beasts of the Six Deadly Sins with his own strength and his own body.

...It's like the Clow Card was rewritten into the Sakura Card.

Before Aiwass of this world reaches that position, there will never be a second "Beast Master" in this world. Just like the profession "Scholar of Sins" was also named by Aiwass.

If you want to confront Huan Tiansi, confront your own destiny...or even touch the position of Pillar God, you must at least reach that state.

Demonologists advance to the level of Sin Scholar at the fourth level, and advance at the seventh level at the second level.

The job transfer mission of the Lord of Great Beasts requires Aiwass to collect six attributes of sin beasts and raise them to the seventh level. At the same time, he must prepare six attributes of Tiansi fragments, as well as sacred weapons or Extraordinary materials of the same level to "crowd" them.

Xiong Tiansi is the Tiansi with the attributes of fire and earth. It can be used as a fire attribute or as an earth attribute.

And Aiwass also remembered... there were many flame butterflies in Xiong Tiansi's dense forest.

According to the occult knowledge Aiwass obtained from the school library, the dense forest should be the area designated by Xiong Tiansi in the dream world, the "Eternal Burning Valley".

The Silver Crowned Dragon always stares and guards the Eternal Burning Valley, preventing Xiong Tiansi from leaving here to go to other areas of the dream world.

Xiong Tiansi will ignite the souls of cowards, lazy ones and evaders and turn them into flame butterflies, letting them burn and devote all their strength. Those powers will turn into fire, burning the weak and healing the strong. After the Silver Crown Dragon has selected his soul, it will be the turn of Xiong Tiansi, who ranks first on the path of authority, to choose.

He will give priority to the souls of cowards and strong men - the former will turn into fragile butterflies, burning themselves until they turn into ashes.

The latter will turn into beasts and hunters, fighting each other endlessly in the burning forest valley.

The hunter hunts the beast, and the beast devours the hunter.

As long as the hunter and the beast complete a hunt, the hunter will become a beast and the beast will become a hunter.

In this repeated cycle, the dead will be reborn again and again, but become weaker and weaker.

After the courage is completely burned out, it will lose the shape of the beast and turn into a mindless flame butterfly.

This is the way of strength - the strong will continue to take everything from the weak.

There is no fairness in the way of "strength".

The most unfair thing about it is that every newly arrived soul will challenge the strongest person who has lived here for hundreds of years before it develops - that is, Xiong Tiansi himself, and will eventually become his nourishment.

Only a few of His apostles will wander around the Eternal Burning Valley, hunting the newly promoted souls... There are also a very small number of people who can defeat the apostles with the weak and the strong, and they will be promoted to new apostles by Xiong Tiansi with great mercy.

He gave his apostles the power to challenge himself, and would also take the initiative to attack and kill his apostles when he was bored.

The way of power is like this, there is no reason to explain it. As long as you can win, everything is right.

The strong become stronger and the weak become weaker.

Aiwass raised his hand slightly, and the butterfly flew on Aiwass's fingertips.

"...But no matter how you look at it, bears and butterflies don't go well together."

He stared at his flame butterfly intently and whispered.

Aiwass raised the corners of his mouth slightly, touched the fire on Flame Butterfly's back with his fingertips, and whispered as if coaxing a child: "I'll get it for you, okay?"

The scars on his chest are indeed the marks of Xiong Tiansi hunting Aiwass——

But is this not the imprint of Aiwass hunting down Xiong Tiansi?

Just like the endless hunting cycle in the Everburning Valley - the hunter can be the prey, and the prey can also be the hunter.

"You'd better be stupid, otherwise..."

Aiwass murmured.

——He can also perform the Ring of Ending Ceremony now.

If possible, he would certainly hope that he would follow the normal development sequence and wait for Star Antimony to hold the coordinating ring, pull down Fallen Sky Secretary, and then go over to take him away.

But if Xiong Tiansi realizes that his apostle poses no threat to Aiwass, and starts to understand Aiwass's soul... then Aiwass will have to start the Ring of Ending Ceremony.

It can be said that the more these imprints are stacked, the closer the duel between Aiwass and Xiong Tiansi is.

But it would be bad if Xiong Tiansi was torn off first, causing Fallen Sky Si to become wary.

——But at present, it seems that the problem should not be big.

Because the situation over at Xing Antimony is even worse.

Just after Avalon declared war on Star Antimony, the archmages from the Narcissus Principality immediately arrested Duke Cavendish and declared that the Narcissus Principality had regained its independence.

Even if Xing Antimony doesn't care about Avalon, he still has to prioritize the independence of Narcissus Principality.

Otherwise, if they don't respond to this, even the Black Eagle Principality, which is still relatively loyal now, may have some evil thoughts.

But the independence of Narcissus Principality was carried out with the support or hint of Avalon.

Under the continuous high-intensity harassment of the Griffin Legion, supplies from the rear could not reach the front line - these Griffins were parked in the Iris territory, and Star Antimony could not directly cross the sea to directly attack Avalon headquarters, and did not want to Open a third front to attack Iris.

So they could do nothing but vehemently condemn the iris.

Aiwass thinks...

If nothing else, the coordinating ring ceremony, which was originally scheduled to be held in version 3.0...that is, June 1900, will probably be brought forward.

The war has now begun for a month. It's early February, and spring is blooming.

As for Xing Antimony, it is already obvious to the naked eye that they will not be able to survive next summer.

Regardless of the fact that Iris is still watching with eager eyes, even the Black Eagle Principality is beginning to have opinions.

When they saw that it was almost impossible to prevent Narcissus from becoming independent, they became dissatisfied with their fate as cannon fodder.

In Star Antimony, whether they are alchemists, necromancers, demonologists or witches, they all have one thing in common... that is, they are all crispy masters and have a high status.

If you want a physics career with a rough skin and a thick skin, you have to find it from the Black Eagle Principality.

Either the expensive Colossus, or the armed gargoyles that are still in the development stage... So in the end, we have to rely on the hunters on the Black Hawk side. Armed with Star Antimony's advanced automatic weapons, they have become the army with the largest number of Star Antimony.

Moreover, the territory of the original Black Eagle Principality was adjacent to the Narcissus Principality. As Star Antimony's supplies and reinforcements are constantly being harassed by griffons, they can only continue to recruit troops from the Black Eagle Leader and send them to the north to confront the mages.

——This is also a principality ruled by Xing Antimony. They are arguing for independence. Why should we send troops to fight?

Nowadays, even these Black Hawk armies have vague voices of dissatisfaction.

The goblin merchants took the opportunity to bleed and raised the price of war supplies several times.

So Aiwass knew... the linking ring might be this year. He can no longer postpone his studies in the Theocracy.

Because it is impossible for the Star Antimony people to accept defeat.

It can even be said that... there are only three months left at most.

——At most three months, Star Antimony will be defeated.
