Chapter 1313: The First Sacrifice
At this moment, July 7th, it was already late at night.
The sun had already set at dusk, and the half-full crescent moon had risen to mid-sky.
Aiwass looked at the moon and took a deep breath.
During this extremely long day, a pillar god was replaced and four celestial officials fell.
——And today, the barren desert that has existed like a myth since ancient times is about to disappear here.
Now, no sinister thorns were entangled around him, no flames ignited, and no smoke swirled around him. He was simply clad in a simple white robe, with the token of the former friendship between the King of the Scaled and the King of the Winged draped over his shoulders. Behind him, six wings spread out, he hovered in the air.
Under the dual manipulation ability of Yuan Tiansi and Sizui Beast over Zui Ji, they have all turned into pure power, transformed into Tiansi fragments and pure magic power.
As for the sin thorns under the desert, Aiwass has decompressed them and extracted the power from them, and re-sealed the contaminated information into solid star ice.
At this moment, they are scattered all over the desert, like dice of different sizes, shining with different colors under the moonlight.
As Aiwass lifted up the pearl oyster, it gradually lit up with brilliant rainbow light, slowly broke away from Aiwass's hand, and floated up.
It was the color of star ice.
Even in Holy Spring City, one can see a rainbow glow blooming in the night sky.
The prismatic light looked like a star that suddenly lit up.
"Rainbow color..."
Aiwass murmured.
That should perhaps be the color of "hope", but now it is drowned out by the pure black that represents nothingness.
The power of taboo shifted from "miracle" to "hope", perhaps corresponding to his past failure in going from "easier" to "mistake".
Just like the beautiful rainbow light, only a few people can see it under the cover of night, and it seems as distant as something from outer space.
Because only the purest and cleanest white light can pierce the darkness——
And beneath the rainbow stars that shone like lanterns, Aiwass raised his hands.
He was extremely rare and solemnly held up the Book of Law with both hands.
The Book of Law moved without wind, and soon stopped.
As an inverted tarot card petrified, Aiwass read her name.
"Inanna—"
As Aiwass called out, a golden light suddenly lit up in front of him.
It was the light of doom that was powerful enough to freeze the entire world...but at this moment, it held an unconcealable tenderness.
Born from that light was a little girl who was only about seven or eight years old.
She was wearing a white robe that matched Aiwass's style, had long snow-white hair of the same color as the new Aiwass, and had amber eyes that matched Aiwass's. She also had three pairs of wings behind her - except for the lack of halos on her heads, they looked exactly like father and daughter.
At the moment when Yuan Tiansi opened up the path... the "star", which had lost its name and was once again given the name "Inanna" by Aiwas, was finally able to reveal its true form in the material world.
She was Amber's former self before she became a god, a nymph that hadn't yet shed its molt.
It is a paradox that should be nameless, a dead baby that cannot be born into the world—
If we consider the relationship between taboo and amber, the abyss and the stars... Inanna, who was finally able to be completely reborn with the death of the abyss, now has a kind of inheritance relationship.
"Father."
She flapped her wings and flew to Aiwass, greeting him crisply, but then she remembered Aiwass's previous instructions and quickly changed her words: "No...Teacher!"
"Congratulations," Aiwass showed a rare gentle smile and touched her head. "You are born. July 7th... From now on, this will be your birthday, Inanna."
As he spoke, Aiwas looked at the desert beneath his feet and ordered:
"Give this land the seeds of a bountiful harvest... Can you do it?"
"—Yes, teacher."
Inanna responded simply, extending her right hand toward the earth: "It's easy."
With the fragments of "Remembrance and Rememberance" provided by Lingbo Tianshi, the power that originally belonged to the Pillar God Amber bloomed at this moment -
Just pay mana to bring about miracles that violate the laws of the material world!
The pearl oyster floating above his head was providing endless magical power at this moment.
——That was the magic power that originally belonged to Dayuan!
Under the abundant magic power, the light golden desert beneath their feet rolled and turned into a small piece of fertile land that was dark brown and almost black.
This is not the soil that can grow crops... because its fertility is too extreme and can kill all crops. But it is the "seed of harvest" -
The "Harvest Seed Ritual" is a large-scale ritual used to transform wasteland into normal soil. This cruel ritual usually requires the sacrifice of more than one life.
But now, this ritual, used by its true master, seems so trivial—
The substance of this "fertility" that is poured into the earth is the "dead remains of all things."
It is concentrated death.
If Amber had not been used as a carrier of reincarnation from the moment of her creation... she should have become the goddess of the earth and the goddess of harvest in this world.
The earth and the harvest are also connected to the concept of the underworld. The "unowned territory of Shadow Kingdom" discovered by Shadow Tiansi was originally supposed to be the boundary between life and death. This is why the Shadow Kingdom kills all crops when it descends into the material world.
The death of the living means harvest, while the life of the dead means barrenness.
The seeds of harvest were first planted on one acre of land, and then expanded tenfold in the blink of an eye.
After that, these dark brown marks spread in all directions in the blink of an eye, like a giant earthworm turning over.
If you look at it from directly above, it looks like the originally smooth skin has suddenly cracked, with many dark brown "scars" appearing.
However, these scars symbolize rebirth.
These forces were injected into the desert along the traces left by the previous Sin Thorn in the depths of the desert!
Infuse the desert with the power of "death" and grant it the power of harvest.
This is exactly what the Earth Goddess was supposed to do.
If there hadn't been the invasion of nothingness, perhaps this desert... no, perhaps the entire world would have turned into fertile land for harvest.
"Fruit falling to the ground—this is the world's earliest sacrifice."
Aiwass murmured softly: "Exchange corpses and abundance for new life, realizing the endless cycle of life and death..."
The cycle of life and death is so perfect.
This land has always been like this, is like this now, and will be like this in the future——
"It's done, Sensei."
In just half an hour, Inanna, who had obtained unlimited mana, expanded the seeds of harvest to the entire Rest.
This was no problem for Inanna. She didn't even feel tired.
Then, Aiwass drew the second card -
