Chapter 1302 Wei Zhe is about to die
Long white hair, a straight and tall back, a right eye shining with lightning... and the new golden feathers.
Just like new buds sprouting from an old tree.
The new feathers grew very slowly at first, but after Wei Zhe regained his youth, the growth suddenly accelerated dozens of times - the golden wings became bigger and longer, and each feather was covered with dark golden runes.
Aiwass remembered that the Supreme Heaven had two pairs of wings. One pair pointed to the sky, the other to the ground, like a butterfly. This symbolized his invincibility, both in heaven and on earth.
But Wei Zhe only had one black wing—his other wing was already bent, shrunken, and curled up on his back, like a cripple's leg that had been broken for a long time and had lost its function.
But now, Weizhe has six intact golden wings behind him, three on the left and thirty on the right!
——Without a doubt.
Today's Weizhe is no longer the old, short, skinny and disabled secret keeper.
Although he only obtained a small part of Xiong Tiansi's essence... this was enough for him to regain some of his former power as "Ying Tiansi"!
"No, that's impossible!"
Calamity Red roared in disbelief, "You cheated, Mimir!"
"……Cheating?"
Qi Tiansi, who was protected behind Aiwass, murmured in a low voice with some confusion, not quite understanding why Calamity Red was so shocked.
She was rapidly recovering from her own injuries and the Silver Crown Dragon's injuries. That was due to Guinevere's healing ability.
The light shield that Qi Tiansi had cast earlier had indeed protected the Silver Crown Dragon from damage. However, after being injured, the part of him that was Guinevere rose. Qi Tiansi's once dashing features softened, and his tall, strong frame grew thinner.
Thus, the Knight-Skymaster switched from "he" to "she." Although Guinevere offered her soul, it was not a pastoral technique. She did not sacrifice herself to nothingness, but simply merged with Lancelot.
As a dual-faceted Celestial, Qitianshi possesses two opposing yet similar abilities: protection and combat, and healing and blessing. This makes him a self-contained entity, with balanced and perfect abilities.
"From his perspective, that's true..."
The one who answered the Knight-Riding Officer was none other than the Silver Crown Dragon itself.
As Qi Tiansi's former comrade-in-arms, Bai Long, who once used the alias "Arthur," slowly stood up and said in a low and solemn voice, "After all, the Pillar Gods are all gods of the purest and purest. As a Pillar God himself, Arthur also understands this truth."
In the past, Hengwo had to slice and dice ten times before finally carving out his pure self; the Silver Crown Dragon sliced away the manic demon dragon and ascended to the throne of the Crown Master. It was also because of this that Yi Tiansi split his mage self and warrior self into two parts...
The pillar gods are different from the heavenly gods.
It's entirely possible for a Tianshi to occupy multiple paths simultaneously. Because up to the Tianshi level, the Source River doesn't demand a high degree of purity from its opponents. After all, as a candidate for the Pillar God, the Tianshi's duty is to open up new possibilities for the Source River.
Therefore, when Yi Tiansi ascended, mastering both magic and strength was not a problem. Before the part of him that belonged to Wei Zhe was cut out by the Sand Clock and entered the Source of Truth, "casting ability" itself could be considered a form of violence - after all, how could a sufficiently powerful spellcaster not be considered a strong one?
But now... now that magic has been classified as the fourth source river, it is impossible for Yi Tiansi to merge it back.
Because Weizhe is already the pillar god of the fourth source river, and Zhigaotian has also become the pillar god of the seventh source river.
As the pillar of the Fourth Source River, how could he possibly absorb the remnants of the Seventh Source River?
"However……"
The Silver Crown Dragon slowly stood up and spoke the answer that Calamity Red had already thought of but couldn't believe: "He is no longer a Pillar God."
As the Silver Crown Dragon finished speaking, a deep blue halo composed of runes with a hint of ancient and barbaric aura appeared above Weizhe's head.
This aura is proof of being a perfect resonator of the Tao.
Its shape, color and position will be different for each person... For example, some people may wear it on their head, some may wear it behind their head, some may wear it around their neck, or cover their eyes.
This is similar to how the pupils or wounds of a transcendental being change color when they fully exert their transcendental power, fully resonating with the Dao. This phenomenon is essentially the overflow of power drawn from the Source River by the soul. If one can perfectly control the Source River power, then when exerting their full strength, this overflowing power will condense into a seal outside the body.
It is difficult for the celestial officials to have this kind of aura, because those fragile carriers make it difficult for the celestial officials to use their full strength.
It is difficult for the Pillar Gods to emit such a halo - the Pillar Gods have become one with the Source River, and they are almost equivalent to the Source River itself.
How intense must one be to achieve a second resonance with the source river that has merged with oneself? And how fierce a battle must one endure to truly exert one's full strength and completely drain every last bit of one's reserves?
But now, Weizhe has easily exuded a halo... This has already proved something without words.
——Weizhe has already given up his position as the Pillar God.
"But, how is this possible...!"
It was understandable that Calamity Red was stunned.
The change of the Pillar Gods should bring about great changes in the world. As the Pillar God who seized power, he himself was very clear about this process.
But now that Weizhe has abdicated, not only has he completely returned to being the Celestial Master... but the source river has not actually changed its course, and there haven't been any changes to the professional system, blessings, and curses!
The path of wisdom is still the path of wisdom, and the master is still the master.
"Because the controller of the Fourth River Source is still 'Weizhe'."
Yi Tiansi spoke slowly, his voice gradually becoming younger and louder: "It's just that it's no longer Mimir... but 'Odin'. He has similar features to me, similar powers to me, similar desires to me... and similar wisdom to me.
"He can bear the name of a great philosopher, and he can also carry the teachings of wisdom."
Hearing this, Aiwass immediately understood everything.
The existence of "Odin" is a secret to a certain extent.
Aside from the Giants of the North, few knew of his existence. Aiwass was an exception, as the Book of Law recorded the ritual of "Odin's Trial."
This ritual itself is based on the laws of the Huantiansi——
Through the "principle of taboo", the existence of the past is transformed into the reality of the present; through the "principle of ring", the reality of the present is transformed into the hope of the future.
The essence of this ritual is already half similar to Paradise Lost!
If the object being sacrificed is of equal or greater value than the object being prayed for, then the sacrifice itself becomes meaningless. As a principle of taboo, something created from transcendence, the art of sacrifice is essentially a skill of "killing" something of lesser value in exchange for the "birth" of something of greater value.
For this reason, the ritual of completely sacrificing oneself will inevitably yield something higher than what one obtains at this moment.
So what if the result of the next second is sacrificed to the next second?
What if this is not "one second", but one-sixty-fourth of a second, one-two-hundred-and-fifty-sixth of a second, one-thousand-and-twenty-fourth of a meter-second... or even one-twenty-one billionth of a second?
As time goes by, the power gained by the ritual will become closer to "infinity".
Only when the entity is an "infinite" existence can it serve as a container to contain all the truths of this world.
That is what Wei Zhe obtained by opening the door to truth.
And there is only one person who completes this ritual and obtains the truth.
That is the giant Odin.
—However, after opening the door to truth, Wei Zhe received the answers to all the world's questions. He thereby learned of the existence of nothingness, and, precisely because of this, he was imbued with it. It was for this reason that he chose to remain silent... for he did not know which portion of his knowledge was correct and which was distorted.
But, if that's the case...
