Chapter 1288 Imposed Weakness
The red dragon finally managed to escape from the sea monster's restraints.
Since Sizhu recreated the world until now... all the "wars" that this world has experienced can be regarded as part of the red power of disaster.
He can manifest and replay any moment in any war.
For example, in the battle between the elves and the dwarves, the thousands of huge cannons that roared in an instant; or in the battle between the winged ones and the sky-eating beasts, the sky-eating beasts that could devour mountains and rivers, or the Winged Sky Lords who could defeat even such opponents... He could even materialize the battle between the "Silver Crown Dragon" and the High Heaven in the dream world at the beginning of its birth.
This is the supreme authority of being a pillar god.
However, the Silver Crown Dragon hadn't relied on his Pillar God authority to fight him before, and Arthur naturally didn't want to use that power against Vortigern, who had now been deposed from his Pillar God position. If he lost in this battle of the mind, even if he destroyed the opponent's soul, their consciousness would slowly regenerate within his own.
After all, they were the same person. Just like the current Supreme Heaven, a part of him had returned to Wei Zhe's body.
However, Yuan Tiansi was not scared away by this attack.
Or rather, He simply didn't know what it meant to retreat—
The violent sea monster completely ignored—or perhaps forgot—the three powerful beings that had previously lured it over, and instead focused on its operations.
——Because these tentacles are actually not Yuan Tiansi’s body at all.
Yuan Tiansi's true form was the headless corpse left behind by the Forbidden Pillar God Ai Shiping. Those tentacles originally emerged from his neck, formed from the overflowing power of the Forbidden.
This is why Yuan Tiansi seems to have no brains.
Because He really has no brain.
Although a phantom demon doesn't need a brain to think, its lack of a brain means it has no concept of "thinking." It's like a person in the dream world without wings, and therefore no concept of flying. While it can achieve flight through magic or other means, it lacks the natural instinct to do so.
The giant whale's head was actually Yuan Tiansi's true "body," where his heart lay. Aiwass's consciousness and Yuan Tiansi's true self were also stored there.
These tentacles are actually the blood vessels - or hair - controlled by Yuan Tiansi that emerged from his empty head.
Therefore, their damage actually couldn't shake Yuan Tiansi in the slightest. On the contrary, the ice storm that the Silver Crown Dragon had previously spit out actually hit Yuan Tiansi's body.
It froze and shattered the waves and tentacles together, but this level of injury was of no significance to Yuan Tiansi. However, it hit the "Head of the Giant Whale" flying in front.
——Even this attack would not have caused much damage.
The reason why Yuan Tiansi was completely enraged was because of the equipment that Aiwas put on Yuan Tiansi.
"Chain of Friendship"!
As a token of trust created by the Winged King and the Scaled King, this is a true artifact. Just like the Candle Apostle's spear, it has the highest priority.
This also means that He can be effective even against the Heavenly Officials and even the Pillar Gods.
In the original world, many difficult-to-confront celestial beings—including the eldest brother Edward who killed Aiwass and obtained the Heart of the Dragon in the original world—rely on the artifacts given or loaned by these pillar gods and celestial beings to break their special mechanisms.
Moreover, the equipment he gave to Yuan Tiansi has powerful power that also benefits Yuan Tiansi.
Just as the information provided by the "Brave" Ismail to Aiwass said...
The ability called "Heart of Heresy" is exactly the power of the Forbidden Pillar God of the past!
However, those benevolent masters, who hold the treasure in their hands, do not know where its power comes from.
One of the reasons why Yuan Tiansi became so excited was because he had recovered a portion of the ancient power that originally belonged to "himself". Therefore, Yuan Tiansi had no way of resisting the equipment that provided him with benefits.
But at the same time... its other effective state, the "Fortress of Faith" from Lucifer, also came into effect.
Fortress of faith.
It relies on the power of the user's mind to gain physical strength. As long as the heart is firm and pure, without any disturbance, it can spontaneously form a barrier of light that blocks all physical attacks.
This is naturally an extremely powerful force.
This means that even a mortal - as long as his faith, determination, and will are infinitely firm, he can even remain unscathed under the fierce attack of the Incarnate Angel.
But on the other hand...
Just like the good Lord of Holy Spring City, his soul will disintegrate because he cannot bear the damage to his heart.
Compared to his powerful, almost immortal body, Yuan Tiansi's consciousness is also very fragile!
Not to mention, he had just been beaten up by Xi Tiansi.
That's why, after being enraged, his whale-like head crystallized. That's exactly the same state as "Star Ice"... or rather, the true, most primitive Star Ice!
It is because He feels pain that He wants to protect His weakness.
From this point of view, Yuan Tiansi is no different from a wild beast.
All this happened just as the prophecy said—
"From where the sun plunged into the sea, a thousand tongues of fire licked the bitter black salt bed.
“Skyfire bit the beast’s skirt, letting the sea water scream in the stone cauldron.
"The shepherd of the beast comes from a land where no sails move, no bells ring—
"He poured the last handful of salt water into the clay pot, only to wait for it to sprout the fangs of a snake."
The thousands of sails remain motionless and the bells remain silent.
That meant absolute stillness, the twilight of the end of the world—and the shepherd who came from here was Aiwass himself.
"The beast" and "the salt water poured into the clay pot" both refer to Yuan Tiansi. The fact that it grew serpent fangs indicates that it was possessed by Aiwass through pastoral therapy and turned into a real "serpent."
And now, the snake lurking in the clay pot has indeed revealed its fangs!
When Yuan Tiansi puts on the chain of friendship, he also has a fatal weakness!
On the other hand, the Red of Disaster's going back on his word and ignoring the Red Hand Party was also part of His plan.
Aiwass was transformed into Abyssal, and the two separated entities were reunited, but this entity was "free and newly born," sacrificed to the "ancient and sealed" entity. This foreshadowed his relationship with the Silver Crown Dragon. Seeing that Abyssal was about to strangle the good masters he summoned, Red of Calamity even considered killing the Knights of the Round Table who followed "Arthur" - given this, how could he possibly attack Abyssal?
Isn't that equivalent to attacking himself!
Furthermore, he had originally hoped that the Red Hand would revolt against the Benevolent Masters, precisely because he was also in a "weak" position of resistance at the time. He hoped to use the Red Hands to stir up war and rebel against the Benevolent Masters, launching the final Water War, and using the power from that to defeat the Silver Crown Dragon with a weak advantage.
But the Silver Crown Dragon was knocked down by him with almost no resistance. Now he is in a high position - how could he continue to support the Red Hand's rebellion?
Calamity Red's stance has now changed.
But there is a flaw here.
That is, he didn't know that Morgan had hidden the fragments of the White Dragon.
"—Morgan will surely kill Arthur, and the red dragon will surely triumph over the white dragon."
Aiwass thought to himself.
There are many ways to interpret prophecies.
At first glance, this prophecy seems like Morgan's backstab will kill the Silver Crown Dragon, allowing the Red Dragon to defeat the White Dragon.
But in reality, this is not the case.
Because the Silver Crowned Dragon is not "Arthur", but Vortigern.
But Red Calamity is not the complete Arthur. Only when the two of them become one can we truly be "Arthur".
This prophecy seems to be two consecutive things, but in fact it is one.
Morgan's method of killing "Arthur" was not by shooting the arrow - but by preserving the soul of the white dragon, allowing the red dragon to defeat the white dragon.
This meant that the White Dragon had given up its authority as a Pillar God and could no longer suppress the Red Dragon, but had to settle the matter with him. The moment the White Dragon's soul was stored, the outcome of "Arthur's death" was already determined.
This was not Morgan's betrayal from the very beginning, but the Silver Crown Dragon's own choice.
——He is using this method to clear out the "nothingness" in his body.
In other words, the moment the red dragon overwhelmed the white dragon for the first time, Arthur's fate of death was already determined.
Yuantiansi.
Red of disaster.
The two originally flawless and perfect great beings revealed fatal flaws at the intersection of their destinies.
It was like two trains colliding.
—Using their unstoppable power, they tear each other apart!
Update completed meow!
