Nightmare's Call

Chapter 568 Arcane Secrets: Part 2

Lin Sheng floated in the air, as a black bead appeared in his hand.

“Seems like this is not the source of the Blacktide.” Lin Sheng was slightly disappointed. This was probably the movements made by the monster.

But for him to feel a sense of threat, this monster could be proud of itself.

He then felt another powerful will entered his ranks.

Lin Sheng was satisfied as he kept the bead away.

At this divinity level, if the will he absorbed are purer, stronger, and more numerous, then the stronger his divinity would be.

And he now mastered two different types of divinities.

One was the Guardian divinity. Any existence defeated by him could be sealed into a guardian form, and becoming the source of will, just like the sealed Annihilatus.

The second one was the G.o.d’s Speed divinity.

This divinity allowed Lin Sheng to greatly speed up anything he does.

Be it, the speed of movement, or the speed of when he attacks, or even the speed he condensed his energy and the manipulation of his soul and holy power were all greatly improved.

This was an all-round improvement, and that Lin Sheng realize that if that giant fly Cypross had any intelligence in the first place, he would probably had no chance of victory.

This was the G.o.d’s Speed’s improvement was all compa.s.sing.

Even his long-range strikes were greatly enhanced by this divinity.

This also had led to an at least 30 percent increase of his actual combat strength now than it was a while ago.

Based on Lin Sheng’s estimation, he would have no fear facing two digits worth Annihilatus alone at the same time.

He could even easily defeat all of the Annihilatus in a very short time.

He would only be a little fearful if he faces another divine being without knowledge of the latter’s divinity.

To put it bluntly, divinity was a very powerful pa.s.sive talent.

If he was to run into an elite with an insanely powerful divinity, there was a possibility of him being taken out if he did not know what the divinity was.

Snapping back, Lin Sheng inspected the surrounding area and determined that there was nothing left.

Only then did he continue to fly deep into the Blacktide.

And this flight alone, took the whole day.

Along the way, he had taken out at least five Legendary-level monsters.

He had no idea how the Blacktide had so many monsters, and all of them dangerous high-level ones.

There were eight Palatinate-levels ones as well.

As the time he spent within the Blacktide lengthened, Lin Sheng could feel that his mood began to turn gloomy.

As if something unknown was affecting his emotions and consciousness.

“No more. Time to go back. The Blacktide here must be hiding something that I have not fully understood yet, and for it to affect a divine being like me.

Even with the Spectral Light isn’t enough… perhaps the complete version of the Spectral Light was destroyed by the Blacktide itself.

Lin Sheng did not push his luck, and with no fruits with his search, he quickly established connect with the soul and flew towards the Holy City.

After spending about half a day in the Blacktide, he finally returned to the Holy City of Henriqcal.

It had been more than a day since his last dream, and should be able to enter the dream for the second time now.

Lin Sheng was back in the Holy Sanctum, and calmed himself down before immediately entering the dream again.

He had a hunch that this time around, he could probably find some clues to fight against the Blacktide on that starship that failed to create a G.o.d.

The ritual of summoning a G.o.d …

He was very interested in that.

….

….

As he opened his eyes, Lin Sheng saw black feathers before him. All around him, in the air, on the ground, were countless and countless of feathers.

The feathers kept fluttering and dancing in the air as he stood within the hidden room with a compa.s.s-like object in his hand.

Everything in the hidden room was covered by a thick layer of feathers.

The faint sound of the stringed instrument came from outside again as the man with the blue glow had once again hid away somewhere unknown to play again.

Lin Sheng paid no attention to that person, but instead looked down and carefully memorized all of the information in his hand.

There was a series of bizarre texts recorded at the back of the disc that he planed to memorize first, then investigate further after leaving the dream.

Since there was no way for him to resolve this alone, then he should gather the strength of everyone.

It took about ten minutes for Lin Sheng to memorize all of the characters and symbols.

He then left the hidden room.

Outside the room, to his surprise, the spiked robot that he had tossed away had mysteriously vanished as the melodious sound continued playing.

Lin Sheng followed the direction of the sound, and soon saw a deep pa.s.sage to the wall on the right side.

The man playing the instrument sat on the ground at the pa.s.sageway with his head bowed down as he focused on playing the melodious and melancholic sounds.

With a thought in mind, Lin Sheng flew towards the direction of the man.

And sure enough, it was the same as the previous time, the moment he closed in, the latter would disappear.

Lin Sheng did not mind it, and simply just flew straight into the pa.s.sage the man had disappeared.

The pa.s.sage was very narrow and could only fit a person.

As he followed the pa.s.sage about a thousand meters in, suddenly a huge mirror appeared in the middle of the pa.s.sage.

Silver waves rippled in the mirror as if something was trying to emerge out of it.

Lin Sheng looked around.

There were plenty of incomprehensible symbols and text inscribed on the walls around the pa.s.sage.

The countless of symbols and text, judging by the type, was similar to the one that he had memorized earlier.

A subtle hum rang and grew louder and louder as Lin Sheng approached.

“Nurgana …”

“Nurgana …”

“You would listen to my teachings, and confide your deepest thoughts. Nurgana… my daughter…”

“I will always love you… Here, this will be my gift for your birth…”

“I will take away your shadows, and once you succeed in breaking away from everything, it will be the time you will return to me, and restore everything…”

Following the faint murmur, Lin Sheng noticed that the inscribed runes on walls began to crawl like worms.

A large amount of text moved from slow to fast before quickly converging before the mirror. And on the ground before it, a face of an old man formed out of countless of text and symbols gradually appeared.

The man’s eyes were shut, his hair dishevelled, his beard unkempt and his forehead wrinkled.

“The h.e.l.l is this?” Lin Sheng was not scared by the appearance of that thing. From the beginning he had only sensed the aura and energy fluctuations of an apex six-wing.

For something that was not even a Palatinate-level to trying to be funny before him?

Standing before the old man’s face that had just formed, Lin Sheng held his right hand as an invisible wave appeared faintly on his finger.

This was the glow of pure chaotic souls.

“I’ll give you ten seconds to show yourself, and answer my questions. Or die.”
