Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 977: Tail and Infinity

Roaring sky.

Shock the earth.

Amid the roar of the double Paradise Lost colliding, all the surrounding spells were continuously suppressed.

Even the magical sky curtain that served as a camera and screen was distorted because of this.

The sky began to freeze and then began to tear. As the gold and purple continued to collide, the image became more and more distorted and unreal... Finally, the entire sky was completely shattered!

——The dark purple "night" was torn apart, and the sky returned to its pure blue color again.

The entire planet was plunged into chaos...Those who were following this godslaying war could no longer obtain the latest updates from the "live broadcast".

Even if the spell could still hold, it would be useless - because even the "director" on the roadside had been killed!

Not even a blade of light flew towards them, but the aftermath of the explosion was enough to completely destroy them. The damage of Paradise Lost was even greater for the fleshless phantoms; and the nightmares who relied too much on teleportation were unable to leave by teleportation after Paradise Lost caused strong interference to the surrounding spells!

In a sense, they died at the hands of the Fallen Angels!
Cardinal Galatea watched this scene.

There was clear emotion in her jewel-like eyes.

As a former scaly being, she had of course heard of this legendary spell called "Ultimate".

——Paradise Lost.

She still remembered... the original name of this spell was not this.

It is so named because it is the "taboo among taboos".

The "second half" of Paradise Lost is based on an extremely valuable... disenchanted and consumed fragment of the Celestial Master as the spell's core.

Through the transmutation cycle of the six elements, the mana element is constantly transformed into another element in the ring behind, and the dissipated power is used to strengthen itself during the transformation, so that the weightless mana can continue to accelerate - until the input stops. The more mana is stored, the faster the halo behind will rotate. Its theoretical speed limit can be infinite.

Then, the magic power accelerated to the limit can be released.

It can be any attribute, or it can be "attributeless" with the six elements in balance. The spell energy will be shaped into the sharpest and most efficient attack mode - acupuncture. There is no need to construct any complex spell model. The mana that is accelerated to the limit and thus over-activated is extremely destructive.

But that's not why it's taboo.

But it is because the theoretical upper limit of this spell configuration is "infinite"!
In order to allow it to reach or approach its limit, Lucifer, the master of the Tower of Babel, integrated 666 classic spell configurations, allowing it to disintegrate all derivative spells based on these 666 basic spell configurations and automatically absorb their mana to fill itself. This is the "first half" of this spell.

Just by preparing this spell, one can continuously destroy all spells around, absorb souls, and drain vitality; and this spell can be charged almost infinitely... If this spell is cast when it is perfectly prepared, its power is enough to destroy everything.

If this spell is used in the Tower of Babel, it will disrupt a large number of basic spells and cause chaos in the Tower of Babel.

Therefore, this spell eventually became a taboo that could not be passed down. Not to mention using it, even if you just tried to learn it or record it, you would be expelled from the Tower of Babel. And because the Tower of Babel was regarded as the "Elysian Paradise" by the Winged Ones, the final name of this forbidden spell became "the consequence of trying to use it" - that is, "Paradise Lost".

When Aiwass used this spell in the Tower of Babel before, she was unable to react; and the Paradise Lost that Aiwass released automatically did not absorb any magic power from the outside world at all.

After all, in her time, Paradise Lost was just a legend.

Cardinal Galatea was just an apprentice at the time, so he naturally did not have the honor of witnessing this spell with his own eyes.

And now, the vision of the Fallen Angel disturbing all spells when preparing spells made Cardinal Galatea immediately understand its nature - and recalled the past:

This spell that ends everything actually once had another forgotten name...

That is its real name, and it is also the real name given to it by "Lucifer" who developed this spell.

"...【Tail Ring】."

Galatea whispered.

- To commemorate his precious friendship, and the person who came up with the inspiration for this spell, provided the Tiansi fragment that is the core of the spell, and completed the second half of the spell.

A scaly person who wears a monocle, has long blond hair, and always smiles calmly.

Its name is - Ouroboros.

It was with this jointly developed forbidden magic that Ouroboros killed a celestial being on earth with one strike and took away his authority... thus ascending to godhood.

With the core of this spell, he embarked on the path of transcendence and obtained the law of transmutation.

When he became a god, his honorable name was Huan Tiansi - the Tail-Ending Tiansi, the Infinite Tiansi!

That is the "tail ring"!
He could have ascended with the fragment of the Celestial Master he held, but he chose to use it to construct a forbidden spell and hunt down another Celestial Master again. Because power cannot give birth to power, but knowledge can copy knowledge.

All this was done to share this power with Lucifer - this was the beginning of their friendship. It was the time when the cooperation between the scaly and winged people was the closest, and the whole world was at peace because of it. It was also because of this that Galatea had the opportunity to enter the Tower of Babel to learn magic.

With the peace between the scaly and winged peoples, the world finally stopped all wars. Under the bright sun, the world began to move towards a new era.

At the same time, the birth of this outstanding spell made the wizards of the Tower of Babel begin to doubt their own talents.

Because in front of "Paradise Lost", any spell is powerless. They can't even maintain their own structure, which means that "Paradise Lost" has a special configuration that transcends ordinary spells. It is "an obvious corner of truth".

If a person bears witness to the truth, he cannot bear to step into the land of foolishness.

So, the mages tried to develop new spells beyond the 666 basic configurations, or spells with the same status as Paradise Lost, but they never developed them.

In front of Paradise Lost, wizards were ashamed to register all the new spells they developed.

Therefore it became the "final spell" of the Tower of Babel.

——Undoubtedly, this is a spell that is powerful enough to kill gods, because it has really been used to kill gods.

This is not the incarnate celestial being dragged down by the Tail Ring Ceremony, but the real God who walked in the material world during the Second Sun Period, before the Jedi-Heaven Connection!
Because of this, the Fallen Angel did not dare to be careless. Not to mention now, even if he was still wearing "Taurus", he was not sure it could really block the attack of the Lost Paradise.

The attack of Paradise Lost can strip away elemental resistance!

It’s not “ignoring” or “penetrating”, but stripping!

Just as fire elementals cannot be harmed by flames, rock monsters cannot be petrified... However, after being hit by Paradise Lost, even the flames themselves can be burned!
But fortunately... Paradise Lost can only be used once within seven days. Using this spell is also a huge burden for the caster... because the caster's life, soul and magic power should also be completely absorbed and obliterated by it, and only the "Seven Days Binding" can protect and hide them.

If you use Paradise Lost for the Second Time, it will cause irreversible damage to yourself!

Therefore, it is enough to just survive this time.

The Fallen Angel precisely controlled each stream of purple light, making it collide with the stream of light from Aiwas's spell, not daring to miss any attack.

Although you won't die if you take damage once, under this nearly "infinite" bombardment, even if you take damage "once", the chain reaction could be fatal!
If you take damage once, you will most likely be exposed to a lot of flaws. Then, all the attacks will come one after another.

Although it is impossible to move while maintaining Paradise Lost, fortunately other spells cannot get close to it at all - even if they just get close, they will disintegrate on their own; and all physical attacks will be completely disintegrated by the energy torrent that is accelerated to the limit.

Ground, masonry, walls, rock formations, forests…

No matter whether it is gold or purple, any matter affected by the influence will turn into gold or purple all over, and then disintegrate silently.

It wasn't an explosion or burning, but it simply dissolved into the light.

Their spells have the same origin, and the number of attacks they can launch is exactly the same - all 666 strikes!
This means that if you hit the opponent's shot, the opponent will also hit you with one; if you block the opponent's shot, one shot from both sides will be canceled out.

However, Aiwass's attack logic is different from that of the Fallen Angels.

Aiwass only attacks and doesn't defend!
He did not try to block any attack from the Fallen Angels, but instead directed all his light streams toward the attack!
Aiwass's tactical intention was very clear - I wouldn't block an attack anyway.

——If you don’t block all the attacks, we will die together!

It is like two motorcycles accelerating to their limit and colliding with each other on a single-plank bridge - if no one gives in, both of them will be destroyed and killed; if someone chooses to retreat and drives his or her car into the river, the other motorcycle will be able to pass through the single-plank bridge smoothly, while he or she will suffer losses.

In the end, the Fallen Angel hesitated.

He didn't think it was an honor to trade one for one with a mere snake tail, nor did he think it was worth it.

So the Fallen Angel could only do his best to control accurately and intercept every attack of Aiwass. This inevitably consumed a lot of energy and extra mana... He was like the person who drove the car into the river.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chongbo began to revive his dead teammates one by one.

Although he was already far away from the battlefield... but due to the interference of Paradise Lost, he still had to use his spell three times in a row before it was barely successful.

Chongbo took off an amber bracelet from his collection, melted it, and pressed it against the incomplete body of the Great Guardian. The melted amber, which was the color of olive oil, gradually spread over his body; the corpse, which was still open-eyed, was gradually melted by the amber spirit liquid, turning into a deep brown color, looking like a wax figure without color.

Saint John is helping him with the resurrection ritual - when the wax figure is fully solidified, Saint John will use illumination techniques to inject life force into the wax figure.

The next moment, the "wax figure" of the great guardian moved suddenly.

He suddenly stretched out his hand and tore the wax figure into pieces. Then he quickly crushed the wax figure covering his face, gasping for air as if he was suffocating.

——He crawled out of there intact!
