Chapter 1026 Olyphant's "A Sweet Dream"
As Haibasha's workshop, there are quite a lot of good things here.
Although she didn't find any other tantra books... she might not have stored those things in the workshop at all. After all, she never returned to the workshop after she descended to the mortal world, and she still brought her tantra collection to the material world.
"Is this... a horn made from a unicorn's horn? And this crystal dreamcatcher..."
Yasen looked at the things Aiwas had picked out and was a little skeptical: "Is this really the best thing? I saw the molu grass and the phoenix bone. I remember that the molu grass can be used to make resurrection medicine? This phoenix bone..."
"The phoenix marrow is extracted and used to resurrect people."
Aiwass examined the treasures Yasen had collected and commented, "Those are just materials, and they're things only phantom demons can touch. If we touch them, they'll just be destroyed. Let's just leave them here for now—these two pieces of equipment are probably the most precious."
"Do you want me to identify it?"
Sherlock said casually as he was slowly searching the room.
"That's not necessary..."
Aiwass said casually, reaching out and gently holding the two things: "Because I know them."
——As expected, the system panel appeared in front of him:
Olyphant
【Extraordinary Accessories (Dark Purple)】
【Accessories-Musical Instruments-Horn】
[Extraordinary Characteristics: When this horn is blown, all who hear it cannot flee the battlefield; all allies who hear the horn gain the "Dead but Not Dead" buff, which lasts until sunset; this horn is destroyed after six blows (remaining uses: 5)]
[Dead but Not Rigid: When taking fatal damage, if the damage does not exceed 10% of your maximum health, you will recover an amount equal to 10% of your maximum health and temporarily reduce your maximum health by 10%. This state ends prematurely when your health recovers to above 50%.]
[“A sweet dream”, huh?]
【Sacred Ornament (Light Gold)】
【Accessories-Dream Catcher】
[Features: When you hang this dream catcher on your bed, you will definitely enter the dream world - Guanchouhai]
[Features: When you hang this dream catcher on your bed, you will gain all the memories of your dreams]
[Extraordinary Characteristics: When entering the dream world with this dreamcatcher, your death in the dream world will not damage your soul. You will only temporarily lose the ability to dream depending on the damage, lasting from three days to three years.]
[Sacred Characteristics: When entering the dream world with this dreamcatcher, you gain the "Forbidden Body"]
[Forbidden Body: Your race is considered a "sea monster." All other Path powers are sealed, temporarily losing your rationality and speech. You temporarily gain a Forbidden Path energy level equal to your current Path's maximum energy level + 1. Your maximum health is increased by 1000%. Your mana pool only retains the "water" attribute, and your mana is considered infinite.]
——One of these two pieces of equipment is a divine weapon, and the other is comparable to a divine weapon.
The horn in front, although seemingly unremarkable and only having one purple-level feature... is no worse than the latter.
This is a "dead but not stiff" state that can theoretically last up to one day!
The ability "Death but Not Rigid" comes from adapting to the Dao. Hunters or herbalists who are attuned to the Dao can use specific medicines to temporarily enter this state, preventing them from dying easily after sustaining fatal damage. A single full use of Death but Not Rigid can protect them from at least three additional fatal injuries.
And this is the legion-level "dead but not stiff"!
There is no price, no consumption, no usage threshold, and no path restrictions - the only regret is that it can only be used five times.
Even if Aiwass himself couldn't use it, he could sell it to others. Even apostles or celestial ministers would pay a high price for it... This was probably why Hypatia kept it. She must have paid a considerable price to acquire this horn.
As for the latter—that was the crystallization of the power of the Forbidden Path. Judging from its pale golden color, it must have been the crystallization of a sea monster at least at the level of a Heavenly Master after its death.
Aiwass was impressed by this thing because it appeared in the future main mission.
Haibasha's workshop was as vulnerable to theft as a scientific research facility in the Kingdom of Light. This item once drifted to the material world, where it was somehow purchased by a benevolent lord—perhaps because he felt it "smelled like seawater" and was drawn to it. After all, despite the immense destruction caused by the Abyssal God, it allowed the Parthians to see the "sea" they would never see in their lifetimes. Consequently, many began to worship the Abyssal God who had destroyed their homeland.
The result was that this benevolent master transformed into a sea monster every night, devouring phantom demons and other sea monsters in his dreams. His soul grew at an incredible rate, becoming incredibly powerful, and eventually devoured a sea monster of the Celestial Master level.
Naturally...his soul was completely contaminated by these phantom demon fragments.
At some point, his consciousness had merged with the phantoms he had devoured. Although he couldn't be killed in his dreams, he could be assimilated. When he ate the sea monster, perhaps the sea monster also ate him.
This thing... Aiwass couldn't remember how to use it.
It was truly too dangerous. If the user was killed in their dream, it would be fine, but if they weren't, they would inevitably become immersed in that freedom and power, gradually growing fish scales and transforming into a murloc's head.
If you understand the effects of these two powerful pieces of equipment, you will probably realize the similarities between other materials.
[Olyphant] can extend a person's life for a day; ["Sweet Dreams"] can prevent death in dreams. Phoenix marrow can grant a person the power to be reborn from the ashes, and molu grass is the ingredient for resurrection potion. The other materials hanging on the wall are similar...something that can extend life, some that can be used for resurrection, and some that can petrify or seal a person.
Obviously, these things are used to prolong her daughter's life.
The same goes for this set of dolls she made.
Really racking your brains and using any means necessary...
...That's right.
Aiwass's mind moved and he suddenly had an inspiration.
Although asking others for advice would be equivalent to revealing the secret that Haibasha was trying to break the taboo... there was an exception.
——That is the Lord of Scales and Feathers.
As a Pillar God who had signed a high-level divine contract with Aiwass, He knew nothing of Aiwass's experiences. Furthermore, He was skilled in prophecy... Furthermore, as a Pillar God of the Path of Adaptation, He encouraged "adapting to the world by any means necessary." Finding ways to survive or resurrect, though tinged with twilight, this proactive pursuit of survival was closer to the concept of the Path of Adaptation.
Therefore, although Haibasha would violate the taboos of the Sand Clock, he would be favored by the Lord of Scales and Feathers.
What's more, the Lord of Scales and Feathers already knew that Aiwass and the others would come here...
Thinking of this, Aiwass asked directly: "Boss?"
"Um?"
The voice of the Lord of Scales and Feathers sounded from behind the three of them.
