Chapter 47: The Prophecy of the Prophet's Eye
Unlike branch churches, the headquarters of the Celestial Soul Cult occupies a large area in the bustling area of the city's central area, surrounded by high walls surrounding monasteries and churches.
If such a good place were replaced by other churches, it would definitely be used as a treasure land for money, but the Heavenly Spirit Sect, which pursues escapist practice, rarely receives outsiders, let alone opens it to the public, making it lively outside the walls of the headquarters, and deserted inside the walls, forming a peculiar landscape in the bustling city center.
When Link and the others arrived at the headquarters of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, Priest Sunny was already waiting there with a few nuns, and when he saw Link and the others, he greeted him with a smile: "Welcome, Archbishop Neil, it's been the road, please come in, the elders have been waiting for a long time." โ
Link nodded and got out of the carriage when he heard this, and Reimu and Arya also walked down after him, and when they saw Reimu, several Heavenly Spirit Sect members respectfully shouted to meet the high priest, but Reimu himself was not cold, and he didn't even react at all, which made the atmosphere a little embarrassing.
However, the Heavenly Spirit Sect members were obviously accustomed to Lingmeng's coldness, and they didn't care, and immediately welcomed Link and the others in.
Like the branch church in the town of Cenko, the headquarters of the Celestial Spirit Cult is insulated with the word ornate, and is full of quaintness and mystery, giving people the feeling that it seems to hide many secrets.
The congregants were all indifferent, behaving without asking for anything, and the definition of ascetic was vividly expressed, Link and they met almost all the congregants who prayed there along the way, turning a blind eye to their arrival, and even when they arrived, they would only nod their heads silently, not even saying a word.
Because of this, the entire Heavenly Spirit Sect was filled with a depressing atmosphere, and even Zaga and Aiolos, who were fanatical believers, couldn't stand this environment, and they felt that if they stayed here for a long time, they would definitely go crazy.
After those believers, and the expressionless Reimu, Link finally understood why Reimu always had an indifferent expression that no one should enter, growing up in such a depressing environment, it was strange that Reimu could still have rich emotions.
Soon, the group was taken to a large room in the monastery, where Sunny said that the three elders were waiting inside, but hoped to talk to Link alone, and that no one else should go in except Reimu.
Link, though confused, asked the three of them to wait outside, and he walked into the room with Reimu, where three beautiful women in white sรจ robes, their hair was silver, but their skin was smooth and delicate, and they were very young.
After seeing the three masked women, Reimu pursed her lips and said, "You old women are still the same, always looking mysterious, and it's really inappropriate to go up." โ
This terrible words made Link extremely speechless, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, but the three people who were called the old woman didn't care, and the woman opened her mouth and confided in an old-fashioned voice that didn't match her appearance: "Archbishop Neil, welcome to Bath City, my name is Lingfeng, I am the Great Elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, they are the Second Elder Lingshui and the Third Elder Lingmu. After a pause, after Link digested their identities, she continued: "I know you have a lot of doubts, please don't worry, we will answer all your questions one by one." โ
Seeing that he was being ignored, Reimu pursed his lips and threw his head to the side in a sense of boredom, and Link smiled after a few seconds of silence and said, "Father, three elders, I am indeed curious, because of the way you look, it seems that you think that I will definitely come." โ
Lingfeng showed an unfathomable smile and said, "Yes, your arrival has been prophesied for a long time, and we are just following the prophecy and waiting for your arrival." โ
"Prophecy again?" Link asked, raising an eyebrow and a little puzzled, "what kind of prophecy is so miraculous? โ
Prophecy can indeed predict some things, but the restrictions are very great, and Link is a traverser, and it is too divine to predict, so Link is quite puzzled and a little nervous, the identity of the traverser must not be known to others, and the affairs of the system are also very important, and none of this can be passed on, otherwise he will be killed.
After listening to Link's words, Lingfeng shook his head and said, "No, the prophecy doesn't mention you, but it does mention the rise of the Father's Cult, and the founder of the Father's Cult is the person we have been waiting for. After a pause, she closed her eyes and said with a holy face, "The true God favors, the divine envoy comes, in the name of God, spreads glory, in the name of God, summons all things, in the name of God, rules over the world, God the Father is above, and faith is one." โ
Link couldn't help but be stunned and said suspiciously: "This is ......"
This is prophecy. Lingfeng said slowly, "Five hundred years ago, the prophecy that existed before the founding of the Heavenly Spirit Sect was established, and the original intention of the ancestors to establish the Heavenly Spirit Sect - we are all waiting for your arrival. โ
"Five hundred years ago?" Link was stunned, then frowned, "Didn't Reimu say that you only learned about a prophecy three months ago?"
"That's another prophecy, the Holy Relic of My Religion, the Prophet's Eye, suddenly appeared three months ago, revealing the rise of the Father's Cult, and pointing out that if we don't take refuge, the Celestial Spirit Cult will face extinction. After a pause, Lingfeng said again, "And the Prophet's Eye is the holy weapon that manifested the prophecy of God five hundred years ago, and the rise of the Father's God Sect also corresponds to the founding prophecy of the Heavenly Spirit Sect. โ
With that, Lingfeng stared at Link and said no more, waiting for Link to digest these things, at this time, Link finally understood why the Heavenly Spirit Sect would sell the entire church to him because of a mere prophecy, and it turned out that there was a prophecy about the cause of the creation of the religion as a foreshadowing.
Link did not doubt that Lingfeng and the others would let the Heavenly Spirit Sect take refuge in him because of the prophecy at the beginning of the founding of the sect, because this is a religion, and the members of the sect are a group of ascetics who have no quarrel with the world, and they take the words of their ancestors as the supreme truth, and this kind of fanatical believer's thinking is simply incomprehensible to others. It's like if Link asks fanatics to join other churches in the name of God, no matter how unwilling the believers are, they will do what he wants.
The power of faith is sometimes no different from the control of the gods, and they often do unthinkable things because of some words of the leader.
However, although Link understood the reason for the Celestial Spirits' defection to the Father's Cult, he was also shocked by the prophecy, which expressed a simple meaning of the Apostles of the True God would come to earth, and the Apostles of God used the slogan 'God the Father is above' - that is, the nonsense he was accustomed to hanging on his lips.
The most shocking thing is that the prophecy actually mentions the four words to summon all things, doesn't this correspond to the fact that the system can make all kinds of things?Well, all this can be said to be a coincidence, but the holy relic called the Prophet's Eye foresaw the rise of the Father's Cult when he crossed over, which is also too unscientific, even if Link doesn't believe in God, he has a feeling of being stared at by a pair of eyes in the dark, which makes him feel a little hairy.
Taking a deep breath, Link asked in a deep voice, "In this world, can a person's affairs really be fully foreseen by prophecy?"
As if out of Link's inner thoughts, Reiwind shook his head: "No, there is no such thing, the prophecy is just a manifestation of countless things that may happen in the future through jerky words, there is no such thing as eternal and unchanging, even if it is our founding prophecy, it may not come true." And now it is just a successful fulfillment of the prophecy. โ
"Is it......" Link was a little relieved when he heard this, he already had a magical true god system, and his acceptance of this kind of thing was not bad, and then, he tentatively asked Lingfeng and others if they knew about the true god system and crossing, and the result reassured Link, the prophecy did not mention the relevant content, only the relevant content of the Father's Religion, and even Link's affairs were completely unknown, only because Link was the founder of the Father's Religion, Lingfeng and others thought that the person in the prophecy was Link.
Since then, Link's worries have been relieved, and he is suddenly full of curiosity about the eye of the holy weapon prophet who predicted so many things, in the world of Solakong, worthy of the name of the holy weapon must be the treasures left by the ancient spirits, each of which is a priceless treasure, which can not be found, and the ancient spirit is a powerful race known as the descendants of the gods, each of which has the power comparable to or even surpasses the saint, but it has disappeared in the long river of history for various reasons, and I still don't know if there is an ancient spirit.
For this holy weapon of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, although Link can't say that he is determined to get it, but after hearing about so many artifacts, he is also a little itchy about this holy weapon, but after all, this is someone else's thing, even if the other party takes refuge in you, it is not good to ask for it directly, so after thinking about it for a while, Link euphemistically expressed his desire for that holy weapon.
Originally, Link thought that Lingfeng and the others would be a little resistant after hearing this, but the three of them smiled faintly and immediately expressed their willingness to give the holy weapon to Link, which made Link stunned.
When Link asked in surprise why the Heavenly Spirit Sect was so generous, Lingfeng and the others only said that this was also the ancestor's arrangement, and they were just following the ancestor's orders.
The ancestors, and the ancestors, are worthy of being the church that believes in the ancestors, and completely regards the words of the ancestors as oracles, and the holy objects are all sent when they are sent.
The three elders immediately took Link and Reimu to the holy artifact storage place, originally Reimu didn't want to go, but Reimu said that Reimeng, as the High Priest of the Heavenly Spirit, had the obligation to witness this moment in history.
As for why it is called historical xing, it is unknown, the three elders laughed and said nothing.
As the most important founding holy relic, the Heavenly Spirit Sect naturally did not put the Prophet's Eye in a conspicuous place, and under the guidance of the three elders, Link and Lingmeng wandered around, and finally entered an underground passage, and walked for a long time, making Link can't help but wonder if the three elders have ulterior motives.
When Link's resistance was about to run out, a group of people finally arrived at a huge basement, where there were eight masked women guarding them, these eight people had cold eyebrows and restrained breaths, even if they didn't need to know in vain, Link could show that the strength of these people would definitely not be weaker than Sagar and Aiolos.
"At least above the second order. Link made an assessment of this group of indifferent women in his heart.
