The Dream world.
Inside an abandoned city.
“Thump”
A three-headed humanoid monster fell to the ground. Its flesh and blood melted like water and flowed in one direction.
In a dark corner, Lin raised her hand and began to pull.
In the end, the large pool of blood turned into a drop of ‘Red’ essence and fell into her hand.
Having done all this, Lin immediately hid in the darkness and disappeared.
At that moment, some mutated creatures finally arrived.
“The path of Red is very dangerous. No, Any path of spiritual awakening is very dangerous.”
In the cracks of the corridor, a pool of dark red was constantly moving.
Lin’s thoughts were slightly scattered. She thought about the Black Sun Cult and Eyke, who was becoming more and more strange after joining them.
“The Black Sun Cult is the same. Eyke was he corrupted by this existence?”
It had to be said that the little girl had truly matured during this time, and her knowledge was also constantly increasing.
But all spiritual paths had to have a source!
If mortals went to the Source, they would naturally be influenced and corrupted by the Source!
This was not even intended by the Source, but a natural change and transformation that went deep into the body and mind!
“Only the Spirit of Falsehood can purify this corruption, What path is he… of a god?”
The red that Lin had become seeped through the crack of the door and into a sealed room.
This room seemed to be a storage room, but it had been cleared out. Candles, instruments, obsidian… were used to build a permanent altar.
“Whoosh!”
The Red surged and transformed into the human form of a little girl.
She looked slightly taller than before. She lit a candle and began to pray.
“The spirit of falsehood that wanders through the unknown…”
“Your believer prays to You, begging You to open the door to Your Kingdom and send down Your Radiance, I beg You to purify my body and mind and accept my offering!
…During the ceremony, Lin also placed today’s harvest, the drop of red essence, on the altar.
She had done this kind of prayer and ceremony many times before, but not always had she been able to get a response.
This time was different.
“Whoosh!”
The candle burned fiercely and countless illusions appeared.
A voice that was beyond the comprehension of mortals resounded in Lin’s ears. She saw countless floating masses of light forming a large gate in the centre.
With a soul-shattering sound, the gate opened with a bang and boundless light poured out.
The light enveloped the offering and it disappeared in an instant.
“Thank you for accepting the offerings.”
This was the first time the Spirit of Falsehood had accepted an offering, which meant it was satisfied.
“Hmm… Your offer this time is pretty good.”
Aaron stood right in front of Lin and said calmly.
Since he couldn’t pick up the characteristics of prayers and rituals from too far away, he deliberately followed Lin for a while and had her set up a permanent altar as a contact point.
This way, as long as Lin prayed here and he was there, they could reconnect.
As for the time when Aaron went offline or explored other places?
There was really no other way.
But that was normal. After all, what god would grant every request?
It was normal for gods not to answer prayers, wasn’t it?
By comparison, Aaron was already considered to have a conscience.
As long as she tried a few more times, she would eventually meet him.
At that moment, he held the Red Essence in his hand and felt the different power surge into his body. His gaze flickered, “Looks like the method of sacrificing her spirituality last time had some effect.”
“Through rituals and sacrifices, the power of a believer’s sacrifice could be useful to me?”
Just as Aaron was tasting the sacrificed Essence and comparing it to his own Mysterious energy, his expression suddenly twitched as he felt the disappearance of the Red Essence.
“No it didn’t disappear, but…”
Aaron was impatient to return to reality and feel the difference. He was extremely excited.But he forced himself to control himself. After all, his only believer was still praying. If he ran now, he wouldn’t be able to survive in the future.
“My Lord, I want to save my brother. I want to ask for your protection and help. I will do my best to make more sacrifices.”
Lin begged below.
She knew that even if she saved her brother, it would be useless. Eyke had already been corrupted by the Black Sun Cult, just like her. His condition might be better, but there was a limit.
He needed to be purified by the Spirit of Falsehood to regain his rationality and true personality!
Besides, the Black Sun Cult was a powerful enemy. Therefore, the rescue operation had to be approved by the Lord.
“Rescue? What shall I do?”
Aaron listened to the prayers and thought to himself, “I am just a spirit of failure. Without the ritual, I wouldn’t even be able to interfere with you. How am I supposed to fight the Black Sun Cult?”
After some thought, he followed the mysterious induction of the ritual and spoke directly into Lin’s mind, “Now is not the time to make promises!
When I come across something difficult to do, I’ll just leave it to fate.
It’s not that I don’t want to save him, but now is not the time.
“My Lord…”
Lin bit her lip and suddenly said, “I’m too weak.”
She hadn’t expected that such a great being would personally come to help an ant, so she still blamed herself. “My power is still too weak, but I would like to ask for your permission. I want to form a cult to worship you!”
She wanted to increase her power. Apart from strengthening herself, she could also recruit others!
Cult? I don’t even know what path I can take.
However, I can make Lin recruit people. No matter what path they take, I won’t turn anyone away.
Aaron was happy about this.
Although he was still rather useless, he was still in a way useful. He could purify the corruption of those terrible existences.
The people of this world are too easily corrupted and influenced by superior existences, I can make them retain their rationality and bind Beyonders of any path under my command and obtain even more secret manuals and knowledge.
With this thought, Aaron said directly, “Okay!”
Then he disconnected and went offline to return to the real world. He could not wait to verify some of his suspicions.
…
“All glory to the Lord!”
Sensing the Lord’s departure, Lin said a final prayer and left respectfully.
For her, this was the Lord’s sanctuary. It could also be the future headquarters of the cult.
“Oh no, I forgot to ask the Lord what the new cult should be called and what images and symbols He likes.” Lin had a bitter expression on his face.
“But the lord shouldn’t care about such a small thing. Even the altar is very rough. There are no statues or special markings …”
She thought for a moment and decided. “The Lord is the only light in the Apocalypse. The new cult will be called ‘Light of Salvation’!”
