CHAPTER VI CHAPTER XXVII

"Both of them are right, and they are both according to their own bad tempers. Granny El sighed and said.

"The most important thing is that Meditation for Truth is a way to see the truth. Only true hearts and souls can communicate with the Dark Star. ”

"Real?"

"Yes, the truth of your own heart. Just simple cultivation cannot reach the ideal state of this meditation technique, only calmly face your own heart and see your own ** from your heart. Granny El nodded, gesturing to Asa's chest. "Seeing your truest self is the true meaning of this meditation. ”

"Do you know why so few magicians have been able to complete this meditation in the first place? Granny El let out a long sigh and continued. "Ever since Lord Archibald founded the Necromantic Guild, the mages of Diavale Valley have all been among the best in the world, each of them with a brilliant mind, and they are capable of becoming human beings, and they are the best of the human race. But because of this, they are not able to practice true meditation. ”

"When people are too smart, they like to think with their heads instead of feeling with their hearts. If they have too many scheming minds, they will naturally not be able to face their hearts directly, so they will not be able to practice this true meditation completely. The fate of the forcible practitioner will cause the mana in the body to completely lose control and collapse. ”

"Hehehehe...... A magician can never let his heart rise above his own mind. On the contrary, the butchers who sell meat on the streets, and the bandits who fight their homes, can easily do this. There is a saying that every righteous slaughter of dogs. That's probably the reason. ”

"I see... It seems so. Asa nodded thoughtfully. Sandru's seemingly reckless and headless personality does not resemble the demeanor of a magician, and it is no wonder that he can be the one who practices true meditation among necromancers.

"He founded the Necromantic Guild, which only the brightest, most capable, and most talented could enter, leaving behind the highest meditation techniques that were suitable for the simple-minded of the peddlers...... Lord Archibald, the greatest magical genius in the continent's history, is he making a huge joke, or does he mean something else?" But that's probably why he told the necromancer to be clear and high-minded.

I also gradually understood these things after leaving Dia Valley for so many years. I've wanted to practice True Meditation before, but I found that I couldn't. Now, maybe I've gradually developed that clear and lofty mentality, but I don't want to cultivate anymore. ”

Asa nodded and said, "I only practiced that meditation technique by chance. In the beginning, it was just a meditation technique of ordinary magic. ”

"From the point of view of your personality, it is indeed very suitable for practicing true meditation. But to be truly perfect, you still have to really look at your heart, including ugliness and weakness. It's hard, but I know you've done it. Granny Al's smile was kind. So I said. You've grown up. Indeed, when one's heart is fully mature, true meditation reaches the state of completion. Asa remembers his experience in a magical dungeon, when he used the True Underworld to combine the leaves of the World Tree with the power of the Sunwell. He was able to break through the prison and resolve the crisis at that time, and he asked: "The leaves of the tree of the world and the sunwell......

"The leaves of the World Tree and the Sun Well are the sacred objects left over from the ancient elves, condensing the power of life and the sun and earth, just against the power of the dark star. With these two powers, you are indeed capable of holding the Pitch Black Star all the time without being hurt, and using the Pitch Black Star. That is, you do have what it takes to be the person in Archibald's prophecy. Granny Al's voice paused, slowly. said very solemnly, word by word: "But with qualifications, it doesn't mean that it's true, you also saw in this test just now, your own heart is compatible with the dark star, so you will let go." without holding it. ”

"That is to say....."

In other words, you're not that person. It's not the prophesied man. ”

"I'm not, I'm not. Asa muttered in response. This has actually been said countless times in his heart.

Granny El's words began to become very relaxed, and she said lightly as if she had explained those problems to him when she was a teenager: "Although you have the ability, you have no heart, and you are not the first person who has been empowered by the Sun Well and the leaves of the World Tree in these five hundred years, there is nothing strange about it. ”

"I see. Asa let out a long sigh of relief. The last of the doubts in my chest finally dissipated. Even if it's a prophecy that you don't really believe, it's easy to know that it really has nothing to do with you. In fact, I don't have that mind when I think about it. In the end, whether it is the Sun Well, the leaves of the World Tree, or the meditation of truth, these are all just things that were obtained by chance, and they are just drawn into the whirlpool created by those people by chance. Even if he has now become the center of this whirlpool, his purpose is just to calm this storm and strife. I'm just an outsider. This point can finally be completely and undoubtedly affirmed, and the chest suddenly opens up.

"Thank you, mother-in-law. Asa nodded heavily. "Whether you're Aegrenel or who, whatever your relationship with me is, you're the person I'm most grateful to in my life. ”

Granny El smiled kindly, but Asa didn't notice the deepest part of the smile, a little bitter and helpless.

"Okay, all that's left is to find a place to hide this. If Ronis's old-fashioned fellow had been willing to give in and beg me to give him this ring, he might not have done so now. It took a lot of effort to create a secret room to seal, and there were so many magical enchantments, but in the end, it was not in vain. ”

Asa nodded, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked, "By the way, why did Sandru break this hilt and take it with Dia Valley at that time?"

"Why don't you ask him about this?"

I asked, but he wouldn't say. Asa shook his head and smiled wryly.

"I don't know exactly what happened. At that time, I was recuperating in a place where I had been injured in the assassination of Pope Deken. Granny El replied lightly, pointing to the ring on the hilt of her sword. "This ring is what the old man was going to use to pull up the dark star, although it is absolutely impossible to suppress the power of the black star, but judging from the fact that it can guide and suppress the power of the hilt, it is worthy of spending more than ten years of hard work on the old man.... If he had really been allowed to go to Ernfast and get the leaves of the World Tree, maybe ....." Granny El coughed lightly twice, as if subconsciously stroking her chest, Asa knew that she had chest pain every time it was particularly cold weather, it seemed to be an old problem left over from many years ago. "That guy deserves to be the number one master in the mainland at that time....

Hehe, it's as it once was...."

Asa opened his mouth to ask, but he didn't. He was no longer willing to inquire about these old things just for curiosity, what he had learned from Sandru, these old people who had too many stories to tell would naturally tell you, and it would be useless for you to inquire if you didn't want to say it.

"That bastard Sandru really gave me a problem, why didn't he find a good place to store this.

He now finally wanted to return to the transcendent object that a necromancer should be, but he finally pushed me out. Alas, forget it, I'll be the last to show you the way. Granny El smiled wryly and looked down in thought.

After a while, she looked up and sighed, still looking at Asa with a wry smile, "Send it to Negan." I know there's a guy who's going to be happy to accept this. As long as you can really give it to him, then probably everything will be over for a while. ”

"Negan" Underground?" Asa was shocked. He really didn't expect Granny El to point him out such a place.

"Even Ronis and Sandru have been guarding it for twenty years, and they have been destroyed like this, do you think there is really someone on this continent who can protect this thing? This thing itself is dangerous, but the most dangerous thing is the greed and ambition it causes. Only in that place is probably where human ambition and greed cannot reach. ”

"Really.... Can everything be settled?" Asa sighed, if it was true. After a long journey, we can finally have a clear destination.

"Perhaps, this ring has changed the fluctuation of this hilt, and the rate of consumption of the well water in the sunwell will become very slow, and the well water in this pocket can last for at least twenty years. And in the past twenty years, with that guy's ability, it probably won't be a problem to replenish some well water. ”

"Who are you talking about?" Asa frowned. It was hard for him to think of anyone like Sandru and Ronis

The two, judging from Granny El's words, it seems that this person is far stronger than the two of them combined. If the words are from the other

When a man speaks from his mouth, he will never believe it.
