After "Samaritan Women's Spring" in the hole was completely sucked in by the dark hole, all that was left was the moist mud on the ground, a few puddles that were more substantial than pale spring water, and the words that echoed in Angel's ears:
"Blood Son of Heaven Disturbing the Underworld, Underworld Daoist sacrificed themselves into the river."
The emperor code-named "Blood" disturbed hell and brought unrest, while the monk code-named "Underworld" sacrificed himself and entered the river?
Angel translated the meaning of this sentence Chinese with his own understanding, and looked at the dome of the cave. His sight penetrated the obstruction and seemed to see a gray mist.
She knew that Klein was also observing here, at least his Worm of Spirit was watching.
In the palace above Gray Fog, Klein's consciousness returned here from Mirror World's Stone Chamber.
In front of him were rippling crimson light and prayer light spots. Inside the light spots, Angel was looking in this direction.
"Blood Son of Heaven... There is no doubt that this refers to 'Blood Emperor' Alistar Tudor. This is also consistent with the identity of the shadow that just climbed out of Samaritan Women's Spring and was pressed back. The first paragraph refers to his attempt to attract the sealed ' The power of River of Eternal Darkness' was eventually contaminated and perished? That Sefirah corresponds to 'Underworld' and 'underworld'...'Blood Emperor' was also restless in River of Eternal Darkness, and also 'disrupted' Underworld?"
Klein tapped his finger on the table and turned his head to think.
"'Underworld Daoist' is the old man with the crown on his head, the jade face and the white beard? Looking at the feathers and pus on his body, he is probably the Beyonder of 'Death' Pathway. Sacrificing himself into the river means that he sacrificed himself and entered 'River of Eternal Darkness' to suppress and seal Tudor's Residual Soul... is really a great person, but his dress is too much like a Daoist priest from the Great Old One era, he can't be another senior time traveler... Wait, he can actively enter 'River of Eternal Darkness', and this Sefirah is being sealed in the Western Continent..."
He muttered, suddenly straightening up and his eyes widening slightly.
This means that "Underworld Daoist" is probably the person from the Western Continent!
The Sefirah of "River of Eternal Darkness" has tributaries underground in Calderon and Trier, which means that there is a certain connection between the inside and outside of the seal. The Residual Soul of "Blood Son of Heaven" Tudor can be integrated into it, and the Underworld Daoist of "Underworld Daoist" can naturally be connected from the other side.
The only question now is whether this "Underworld Daoist" who is likely to be the beloved of "River of Eternal Darkness" or the corresponding Pathway Beyonder is a time traveler of our era... or is Western Continent not completely inherited from generation to generation, so it is still using the ancient Chinese?
Klein thought about it and sent the conclusion he reached into the prayer light spot representing "Empress" Angel.
After the figures of Gray Fog and "Fool" Klein appeared in front of his eyes, Angel fell into deep thought again.
She and Klein came to a similar conclusion. The old man was "Underworld Daoist" who took the initiative to "enter the river" to suppress Blood Emperor. His spirit of sacrifice was commendable, but it also brought more problems.
According to the existing information, although Western Continent has sealed seven copies of Sefirah except "Sefirah Castle" and "Chaos Sea", it does not have Beyonder Characteristic of Sequence 1 and the corresponding Uniqueness have at most the Angel characteristics of Sequence 2, and the number is not very large.
This means that "Underworld Daoist" is at most Angel of darkness, Death, and dusk Giant Pathway. Even if he sacrifices himself actively and enters River of Eternal Darkness, can he really suppress "Blood Son of Heaven" who was God before his death?
Unless, He received the "gift" of Sefirah, he could be promoted to High Sequence without Beyonder Characteristic... Angel thought of the Outer Deity believers who were imprisoned in the Underground Memorial Hall in Partis. They used the gift instead of Potion to obtain the corresponding abilities and became Beyonder.
This is doubtful, but at least it proves that "Western Continent" also has normal humans and normal power systems, instead of being completely dead. Only seven copies of the sealed Sefirah exist... Angel shook her head, not thinking about this problem for the time being, but looked at "Hidden Holy Emblem" which she had taken off before and put it back on her wrist as she went deeper into Underground Catacombs.
This small holy emblem was given by Arianna after her first "death" at Tingen, but Angel always suspected that it was a gift from Evernight Goddess. At this time, the pattern of stars engraved on the holy emblem Crimson Moon had disappeared. Instead, pale and deep black mist appeared repeatedly, wrapping a group of dark Red Light light.
Just like the Tudor shadow that was struggling to escape from Samaritan Women's Spring, this dark red mass was constantly hitting the mist left and right, trying to escape the seal, but was trapped by the pale and lacquered Black Jail.
Angel tried to spread Spirituality into this holy emblem, but was blocked the moment it came into contact with the mist. But the seal from "Underworld Daoist" seemed to recognize her, and quickly opened a path, allowing this Spirituality to come into contact with the aura of "Blood Emperor" full of madness.
To her surprise, Tudor's aura did not convey the violent emotion to her, but showed a blurry picture.
It was an ancient sailing ship moving quickly through the storm.
Oh, Angel's Spirituality was taken back into the body, with a surprised expression on his face.
She knew the sailing ship and had even sailed on it once.
That is "Blue Avenger" belonging to Tarot Club member "Hanged Man" Alger Wilson!
I remember that it was a Ghost Ship from Fourth Epoch. Could it be that it was left over from the Tudor Empire and built by "Blood Emperor"? But why does Tudor's breath come with this information? He originally wanted to use his breath to influence me and make me take the initiative to find this Ghost Ship? "Underworld Daoist" realized this and sealed His aura before leaving?
Could there be some secrets about God hidden in that "Blue Avenger", just like the relationship between "Ghost Empire" and "Night Emperor"... I also threatened this ship with " Calamity" Charm scared it so much that it begged for mercy and cooperated... No, did it sense the aura of "City of Calamity" at that time and thought it had seen "Blood Emperor" and showed a certain degree of surrender?
So if I go to the Ghost Ship again with the breath of Tudor, can I inspire more secrets and even get the treasure of "Blood Emperor"?
Angel was thinking a lot, and felt that this trip not only failed to solve any questions, but instead caused more and more problems.
Fortunately, these were not things that needed to be solved immediately. She temporarily put the questions such as "Underworld Daoist" and "Blue Avenger" behind her mind, and turned to look at the dark hole that had sucked away all the spring water and Residual Soul.
The mud around the hole that was originally soaked in pale spring water has now become dry, but the outermost part is still a little moist. Angel can even see a few mud ponds with some water droplets, and his heart moves.
From the movements just now, she confirmed that the pale water flow that swept away Tudor was the power of "River of Eternal Darkness". The surrounding silt and residual water were at most contaminated objects, but she also had a desire to collect them and take them away.
"Pick up some and show it to Goddess. If it helps Him, that would be the best..."
Angel murmured, approaching the puddle in the mud cautiously. He first tried to draw water from the metal bottle he brought with him, but found that even the mud and water droplets contaminated with the power of "River of Eternal Darkness" had extremely strong "destruction" and "death" powers, causing the metal vials to instantly rust and corrode, making them unable to carry any liquid at all.
Ice cubes won't work either. It seems that Mirror World can only be put in, but other forces are needed to suppress it... Angel can only take out "Sword of Glory" again and use the tip of Bone Sword's sword to absorb a few drops of "Samaritan Women's Spring" spring water, put it together with part of the silt, and put it back to Mirror World along with this Sealed Artifact that has the power of "Twilight Giant" and "Death" Dual Pathways.
After doing all this, she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling happy that a long adventure had paid off.
She then glanced at the bottomless central hole. She did not intend to get closer or even drill into it to explore. Instead, she quietly moved away until she walked out of the mud area and came to the edge of the underground cave filled with bones.
Angel's Spirituality told her that pale water would flow out of this spring again at any time. Once it comes into contact with it, it is likely that like Tudor's Residual Soul, it will linger in it forever and cannot escape, even if it is protected by "City of Calamity".
"If these silt and water droplets don't work, and we try to find a way to catch some real 'River of Eternal Darkness' river water, we must have a careful plan and a suitable container, otherwise I will only lose my life in vain..."
Although she has the resurrection method of "Mirror Person", she is still unwilling to die easily. After all, in addition to death, there are many forces that can threaten Demoness's body, such as loss of control, pollution, and the eternal Slumber Charm.
Putting away the holy emblem that sealed the aura of Tudor, following the black line on the ceiling of Underground Catacombs, Angel passed through the four-story tomb and the arch engraved with "Death Empire", scattered the false candle transformed by Mirror Magic, walked out of the underground passage, and returned to the sun-drenched Trier.
She had not decided whether to go to Grey Mist to discuss the results of this exploration with Klein first, or to go to Helene to warn her not to be easily promoted to "Unaging" Demoness, when she noticed a familiar figure appearing next to the Underground Catacombs entrance of Purgatory Square.
This man had long hair as red as fire, which seemed to be dyed with the latest and most popular dye. His face was young and handsome, but there was a less obvious wound on both sides of his cheeks, which destroyed this handsomeness and made him look a little ferocious.
He was wearing a casual formal suit that Observatory District and Memorial Hall District college students like to wear. He was leaning against the wall. The gas lamp above his head was flickering, making his expression alternately gloomy and bright.
That is "Red Angel" Medici, whom Angel has met several times and fought with almost every time!
It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw Angel appear, Medici propped himself up from the wall, pressed the peaked cap on his head, and said in a sarcastic tone:
"You haven't come out for so long, I thought you were dragged into the spring by that guy Tudor to keep him company."
