Nightmare's Call - Chapter 566
Chapter 566: Exchange: Part 3
Lin Sheng held the Crystal of Prophecy in his hand as he suddenly felt it to be scalding hot, and had to let it go.
For a divine being like him now, his resistance to the different temperatures was extremely high, yet at this moment, the Crystal of Prophecy had suddenly released an extremely high temperature that was not normal, rather it was like a warning.
Circles of hazy glow started circling and rotating around the crystal.
Crack.
The crystal separated at the top and bottom as a faint white flame burned it the core as it suddenly rushed towards Lin Sheng.
It was a very simple change, as the flame hovered before Lin Sheng and a series of complex image patterns started emerging around the flames.
Lin Sheng stared at the images carefully, and all of them contained some hidden rules and information that could not be ignored.
“These are the hints given by the Crystal of Prophecy.” Fu Yuanbo, who was beside him reminded with hushed voice. “Only the Wise King knows how to properly decipher it. While I had learnt a little, but…”
He looked ashamed.
“That’s alright… these images are good enough already.” Lin Sheng’s eyes gleamed.
Even if he had no methods to decipher it, he could get some minor hints from the images alone.
“Can the predictions be done continuously?” He asked. Seeing as the flame before him was fading, it was clear that this prediction was about to end.
“No. The Crystal of Prophecy would need time to recharge. However, I have heard from the Wise King that it would take a week to do so.” Fu Yuanbo explained.
“Alright, then lets test the ability for fixed-point teleportation.” Lin Sheng nodded.
“This is simple. You just need to hold the crystal and imagine the scenery of the location in your heart as long as the you have enough energy for the teleportation. If your imagination is not too far different from reality, then you can anchor the point and proceed with the teleportation.” Fu Yuanbo had pretty much figured out most of the Wise King’s cards.
Lin Sheng tried to imagine the scenery of the Holy City of Henriqcal.
And sure enough, the Crystal of Prophecy easy opened a portal to Henriqcal, and through the portal he could clearly see the scenery over there.
That sent a chill down Lin Sheng’s spine.
If the Crystal of Prophecy could easily send its wielder to where he had seen before… then if the Wise King was to go to the Holy Sanctum just once, then…
“Seems like I cannot underestimate anyone at all.” After testing all of the crystal’s functions, Lin Sheng had no intentions to take the crystal away.
Leaving it here and using it in tandem with the Blue Tower was the best combination.
Lin Sheng was now almost invincible, and there was no one that could rival him in this world.
So his goal had turned from resisting foes to resisting the Blacktide.
And from the images shown by the Crystal of Prophecy, Lin Sheng had some rough guesses.
He did not believe that the crystal would provide the complete solution to the Blacktide, but as long there was a possibility, he was willing to try.
Of the hints provided by the crystal, there was a source that was condensed from various worlds.
Lin Sheng had no idea what it was called, and simply just called it the Source for now.
And the Source, from the image at least, seemed to only be generated by accumulation in different worlds.
If one wants to stop the Blacktide, one needs to gain sufficient Source.
Based on the image, the Source seemed to be able to continuously resist the incursion of the Blacktide. This incursion was not the monster incursions, but the invisble infestation and pollution of the Blacktide.
In addition, the Source seemed to have more effect than that, but as he did not understand the rest of the images, that did not stop him from planning to collect a few to check it out.
“So I can go to anywhere that I could pin down its position huh….?” Lin Sheng had an idea, as the chat window of the Spectral Light popped up before him.
He did not know whether the teleportation could be done to other worlds.
….
….
“I don’t know what’s wrong but the warpaint you gave doesn’t seem work at all?” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“It doesn’t? Then I can give you another one to try.”
In a gentle yolk-colored wooden room.
A middle-aged man with white hair and bizarre eyes smiled as he looked at the chat interface in his vision with a smile on his face.
He was the gentle, helpful Ascension in the chat room.
“The coordinates of other worlds that can be contacted with, I’ve already done so. Aside from those big bosses, the only one left is Holy Light Shines Upon You.”
A newbie that had just joined the chat room would definitely requires plenty of help, and if one’s desire is strong enough, he would certainly find the opportunity to…
“A new warpaint? No problem, but why do you want a photo of my area here?” Ascension wondered.
“I’m just curious that how the worlds of my seniors here look like.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
The white-haired middle-aged man pondered a little, before taking a picture of a room and sending it over.
He then explained how to deploy the new warpaint.
After many tests, Lin Sheng was so assured that he had tried everything but for some reason or another, none of them worked.
“This newcomer…” The white-haired man felt that something was not right with the latter, as for what was not right, he could not put his finger on.
He had been using this Spectral Light platform for many years now, and most of the members there were ordinary people, and a few were rather mysterious and rarely showed up.
Although he did not speak much himself, he usually would resolve problems when he appears.
“I don’t know if you guys have heard of the Blacktide.”– Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“The Blacktide? Never heard of that before. What’s it about?” — Ascension.
“I’ve never heard of it before, is it a natural phenomenon?”- Giving Hope.
“Yes, a very terrible natural disaster.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“It’s fine if you have never heard of it. I just want to make sure if there’s anyone more unlucky than me.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“Is it troublesome? And widespread?” — Ascension.
“Yes. Very widespread.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
The white-haired man frowned a little, and his warpaints had positioning arrays hidden within it, but the communication of the array was relatively high.
He had just made some preparation, and perhaps he could notice a signal when he passes by one day.
“Oh by the way, Bro Ascension, to thank you for your help. I have a set of ancient secret technique that I discovered by accident to share with you.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“A secret technique?” — Giving Hope.
“Yeah. I found it from the ancient books my grandpa had collected. I don’t know what’s its effect like myself. Our world only has ancient legends in the past, but now everyone is talking about science, so there’s no more market for things like these.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“It is called the Ritual of Wishes.” It is said to be able to summon out holy spirits from the Holyspirit Realm, and assist in fulfilling one’s wishes.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“There’s such a thing? I’m interested!”– Purple Time.
“I want a copy too!” — Giving Hope.
“It sounds like it’s real, but I have some understanding on this matter, and power runes are not universal. The warpaint I had given to Giving Hope too was like that, and almost ninety percent useless, with only very faint effects.” — Ascension.
“It’s okay, there’s no effect in my world at least. I’ve tried it already. But perhaps it may work in your worlds.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“This is the whole book, with all the materials and steps, I’ve also spelled out the activation chant needed as well. Take it, don’t have to thank me.” Holy Light Shines Upon You.
“Thank you for sharing.”– Purple Time.
“May good things happen to you.” — Giving Hope.
“Then I’ll take it. Perhaps it this works, it could be of help to this platform proper.” Ascension.
“Don’t mention it. I still have many tomes of ancient techniques with me. Perhaps they could work in your world. If you have something similar in your world, we can exchange them.” Holy Light Shines Upon You.
