041. Transfer

Add reaped the rewards, and nearly two weeks of boring practice finally turned into luscious fruits at this moment, and his efforts were not in vain, and the words of the Ancestor Serpent God were once again confirmed.

He looked at the mist that had just cleared from his fingertips, and knew that it was a new spell unlike any other spell that had come before, and surprise was the best interpretation of it.

The existing magic system of the Spiritual Oracle School is more about the study of the summoning and control of spirits, as well as the exploration of the soul itself and the nature of magic.

The young mage was already convinced of the Ancestor Snake God, and after tasting the fruits of success, he couldn't help but have greater expectations, what he had just borrowed was only part of the power of a Faceless One, if he studied it deeply, wouldn't he be able to borrow all the other abilities such as the Faceless One's shadow shuttle, mind abuse, and dream torture, and even, one day in the future, borrow the divine power that really belongs to the Ancestor Snake God, a demon god, what kind of situation would it be.

Addic has not forgotten the previous description of the Ancestral Snake God, an archmage with a class level of 15 or higher has skyrocketed after borrowing the divine power of a demon god, and can compete head-on with the legendary mage.

Of course, in the eyes of a qualified mage, borrowing external forces to fight is equivalent to pinning hope and self-safety on an outsider full of uncertainties, and there is still a long way to go from the safety and insurance in their minds, far less reliable than ordinary spells, and can only be used as a supplement to conventional means.

"Summoning is the specialty and foundation of the school of spiritual oracles, borrowed from ...... No, from another perspective, I just summoned a certain ability belonging to the Faceless One to the material plane, which can be regarded as a kind of summoning. A different kind of summoning!"

The most important thing is that in this process, there is no belief involved, which is definitely not the category of divine arts, at most it has a little connection with the gods, just stepping on the boundaries that the mage can bear.

It is intolerable for the mage community to believe in gods to perform divine magic, but if it is replaced by using the divine power of gods, the nature is different.

As the head of Hydra, the first mage to summon the Ancestral Serpent God to the Chimera plane, and as the pioneer of alternative summoning, Eddie seems to have seen the scene of his name engraved in history and remembered by those who come after him.

Under this inexplicable encouragement and encouragement, he wiped the blood from his face while staring at the pattern on the parchment, and his thoughts involuntarily diverged.

After a successful attempt, he knew more about the pentagram snake pattern, and knew that its fundamental role was to make contact with a specific object during the summoning process, and for the past two weeks, he had been drawing on the ground or on parchment, what would happen if, he said, if he simulated the pentagram snake pattern directly in the meditation space?

Will the Faceless descend directly into the meditation space and cause the spirit to be attacked by alien creatures, or will it get better results, or will it directly exert the same effect as the spell model, bypassing the cumbersome summoning process and transforming the abilities of a Faceless into a new spell?

- Mages have a tradition of burning spell models in meditation spaces to achieve the purpose of instantaneous spells.

"By the way, instead of risking your own practice, why don't you just ask the magical Ancestor Snake God?" Thinking of this, Eddie called softly, "Your Excellency, are you there, Your Excellency?"

Black smoke came out of him and fell aside, turning into the ancestor snake god with a human head and a snake body.

"Congratulations, you've made it. As a bystander, Talos witnessed the process of Eddie's successful borrowing of the Faceless Leader's power, and because of this, he understood the whole process better.

In fact, it wasn't so much that Add borrowed the power of the Faceless Leader, but rather that he summoned some of it from the Inner World.

This is what Talos just realized, he had been stuck in a misunderstanding before, thinking that the object of borrowing power in the covenant system could only be gods, and he had been working in this direction, but no, in the system he was exploring, it was the entire inner world itself, including the earthly python, Medusa, Ouroboros, the progenitor snake god, and the three-eyed octopus, the flower demon, the faceless one, and the python four kinds of clans that played the role of gods!

Through the tools provided by the Ancestral Serpent God, a pattern of three concentric circles, pentagrams, and a monstrous serpent—and a potential magical contract that both parties agree—the world receives a signal to parse it and then responds in a way that Talos currently can't understand, temporarily giving him the Faceless the ability to drag people into infinite dreams.

However, the ability of the so-called Faceless One is still an appearance, Talos has not seen any fifth-order ability to extract the ability of another creature, that is incredible, its true essence is the special power born in the process of the Dream Eater Butterfly being polluted by [Laziness] to become a Faceless, a secondary primordial desire derived from the Faceless, it is not only the evolution and sublimation of the Dream Eater Butterfly's instinct, but also the weakening and dilution of the primordial desire.

This is the fundamental reason why the snake shepherds are able to borrow power, and the primordial desires accumulated by the precipitation of countless faith impurities are not weaker than any kind of divine power in nature, although they are more strange and dangerous.

Power doesn't come out of nowhere, and borrowing power doesn't come without any cost, and when Eddie completes the pentagram snake pattern and makes a request to the inner world, he is responsible for paying a certain amount of spirit and magic to maintain the smooth development of the whole process, and some of these spirits and magic become part of the inner world, and some are absorbed by the faceless, growing and improving the strength of the family.

This kind of effort was normal in the eyes of the mage, and was an essential part of any spell release, magic circle building, magic scroll making, or enchantment processing, so it didn't attract Eddie's undue attention or suspicion.

"I declared myself the god of magic in the Thumb Realm, and now it seems that I didn't lie, I just made a declaration. If everyone casts spells by borrowing power from the inner world, am I not the embodiment of magic, the source of mysteries? A different kind of mage will be born and rise because of me, as long as they have access to some of the information of the seven layers of hell. ”

Thinking like this, Talos couldn't help but feel very proud, unfortunately, this pride and pride could not alleviate the embarrassment of not being able to answer Eddie's questions, who knows what would happen if he shaped the pentagram snake pattern in the meditation space by shaping a spell model, and it would probably be polluted by the secondary primordial desire, and then produce various mutations.

Suddenly, Talos remembered the Order of Nepton and the snake shepherds in the plane of the end of the law, could it be that the method that Eddie just mentioned was the key to their transformation from humans and goblins to new creatures, snake shepherds?

Yes, they devout their belief in the demon gods of desolation and multiplication, and they can accept not only the secondary primordial desires of the four clans, but even the power that belongs to the [Silver Jade], but it is not a danger or a burden for them, but a glory and opportunity to get closer to the gods.

"If that's the case, can I, who am experiencing an [angry] counterattack, transfer [anger] to other individuals to alleviate the ontological danger?"

Thoughts and actions are two completely different things, and it takes investment and dedication to turn ideas into actions, as well as a lot of practice to verify the feasibility, how to transfer [anger] is a big problem, if there is something to gain, in the future, Talos may be able to have two more points of confidence in the face of [greed] and [arrogance].

In connection with the practices of the Order of Nepton during the last Plane Arrival, an even more sinister plan was born: to train the Believers to actively channel the fifth primordial desire of Talos [Anger] into their souls and bodies through faith.

This is the safest thing, of course, it is too evil and cruel for Talos to think of the fate of those believers even if he has not experimented, and will inevitably become monsters dominated by [Fury], just like those crazy snake shepherds.

Talos does not intend to fall into the evil camp until the crisis of life and death, he really wants to live, not only to live, but also to rise to the silver rank in the future, to deal with the Elder Titan who uses the multiverse as a laboratory, and to save his parents and friends.

He still has a lot to do, but he also has persistence and a bottom line, the birth of the snake shepherd was purely an accident, they are the product of the desolate and multiplying demon gods.

In contemplation, a bright light flashed, and Talos suddenly realized that he had already done something similar in the plane of the end of the Dharma era, and also copied it to the Chimera plane, yes, the holy water of pleasure, the pregnant gem, the essence of the former is the clear water contaminated with the power of extremely subtle [silver jade], and the essence of the latter is much the same.

However, thinking of the process of making the Pleasure Holy Water in the first place, Talos sighed, a ton of clear water, as long as it is lightly radiated with soul fire, it can all be turned into priceless Pleasure Holy Water, and the original desire consumed in it is negligible, almost negligible, if you use [Silver Jade] as an analogy, unless he pollutes all the oceans of the Chimera plane into the Pleasure Sea, it is impossible to alleviate his own symptoms.

If the ocean and water cycle of the Chimera plane were really composed of Pleasure Holy Water, this world would probably not be far from destruction.

"Anyway, let's try it first, maybe this is the ant that has eaten the dam. ”

No matter how small the transfer is, it is also a kind of relief, and the reason for the original desire to fight back is because of the qualitative change caused by the quantitative change, and besides, for a while, Talos can't think of any other better way, and the right is to be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

However, if you want to alleviate it through this method, you still need to do it yourself, after all, the ancestor snake god is the incarnation of [Silver Jade], and he does not have soul fire, and he cannot control the power that belongs to [Anger].

Now, the only problem in front of Talos is that the Advent Black Slaughter Ox, who is experiencing the [Fury] counterattack, is indifferent to the outside world, constantly moving closer to the absolute extreme "peace" and "quiet", lacks agency, and needs an external driving force, and this driving force is the Ancestral Serpent God.

Through the inner world, the Ancestral Snake God returned to the Crimson Field for the first time, and the Black Slaughter Ox stood in place as usual, unmoving, like a statue composed of lava and magma.

The Ancestor Snake God shook slightly, turned into a black smoke, and fell on the Black Slaughter Cow, and the two merged into one.

The moment he entered the body of the Black Slaughter Cow, the Ancestor Snake God was immediately affected, the aura belonging to the creature on his body quickly dissipated, and even the originally active thinking became slow, under this influence, everything became irrelevant, and eternal tranquility and peace were the root and theme of the world.

A meat bag protruded from the neck of the Ancestral Snake God, from which crawled out a cobra wrapped around its neck, and its eyes, which were indistinguishable from humans, also turned into a pair of snake-like vertical pupils, and the power of [Silver Jade] repelled the influence from [Anger].

"Moo-" Under the intervention of the Ancestor Snake God, the Black Slaughter Ox finally let out its first roar in his life, and immediately after, the hundreds of wild bulls scattered around him also let out a roar, and the momentum was quite huge for a while.

The Black Slaughter Cow took a step, unhurriedly found a lake, and prepared to vent some of the original desires like making pleasure holy water, the whole process was very smooth, the soul fire was burning, and a pure green flame flashed on the Black Slaughter Cow's body and fell on the surface of the lake.

In a matter of seconds, the water was dyed red, like a pool of blood, and like a large mass of fire burning at the bottom of the lake.

At the same time, the soul fire jumped violently, the hydra let out a screaming roar, and a feeling of inadequacy rose in Talos's heart, and the soul fire quickly restrained, no longer venting any power that belonged to the original desire.

"Sure enough, I'm still too optimistic, if the power of the primordial desire could be vented so easily, there wouldn't be so many Chosen ones. ”

Talos recalled the scene of the previous four primordial desire counterattacks, the first time [Gluttony] was purely forced to survive, the second time [Jealousy] experienced a handful of sewing eyes and eliminated his jealousy and survived peacefully, the third time [Lazy] burned his divine power to increase his combat power and fought endless enemies in his dreams, and on the other hand, he repaired his body far away in the Evelyn Palace with the help of the Black Sea's True Worm Repair Pod and his mother's spell, which turned the corner.

By the fourth time, Talos's consciousness was split in the counterattack of [Silver Jade], one remained sane and turned into a god of pleasure and reproduction, and the other was polluted and crazy, turned into a demon god of desolation and proliferation, until the former sealed and devoured the latter.

This is the fifth time, and the most serious one, if it weren't for the previous chance to turn the Ancestral Snake God into the Primordial Desire Incarnation, Talos would have probably returned to nothingness in absolute silence at this moment.

The first experience was not a reference, and the second seemed to be somewhat feasible, but what should be used to stimulate the black slaughter cow to become angry was a question, and after a few seconds, a word popped out of my mind, faith, not ordinary faith, but a large-scale sacrificial activity, with the chaos of faith to awaken deep consciousness.

Of course, this is also very dangerous, the more beliefs, the more impurities, the further growth of the primordial desire, the Tao is one foot higher, the magic is one foot higher, and it is probably the same truth.
