Chapter 358: Ritual Victory and Defeat After thinking for a while, Anti tilted his head and said, "So what does it have to do with me?""Senior Maicon told me that if I need help, I can ask you for help." Rafafar said frankly without hiding anything. "I didn't understand it at first. But after meeting you, I understand that you are a human being with a perfect combination of vigorous animality and rational humanity, which is rare in the Sacrifice Tower. If you join the Sacrifice Tower, you can immediately become an 'Instinct Priest' as long as your strength allows." As Rafafar said this, his originally serious expression was now filled with sincere admiration. "That's a very high evaluation, and it's not wrong." Xiuman interrupted. The Instinct Priest, commonly known as the Boss of the Gulan Priesthood. Anti has a question mark in his head, always feeling that the outside world's evaluation of him has been a bit too high recently. "Uh, is it that serious? By the way, why do you practice beast miracles to increase the risk of beast transformation, and even occasionally the miracles leak out, leading to the growth of intelligent beasts and even the beast race, while at the same time you want to hunt the beast race? Do you want to clean up your own mess?" Anti tried to change the subject. It was not Rafafar who answered this question, but Xiuman: "Due to the relationship between Bist and Faselos, the two pillars intersected and interfered with the beastmen and humans. Beasts and humans are close to each other on the spiritual level and influence each other. Beasts have evolved wisdom, and humans have instinctive wildness, and there is a balance between the two. When the human-beast war ended, the beastmen were almost extinct, and the beast nature declined significantly, causing an imbalance in human nature." Xiuman pointed to his head and said, "Faseros and I have thought of many ways to achieve balance. In the end, the situation was urgent, so the stupid way we came up with was to create a place, connect to the human subconscious sea that I visualized, maintain the concentration of animality near the place, and inject it into the human subconscious sea to maintain the balance of mankind." "The concentration of animality is maintained by using the miracles of wild beasts?" Anti understood.
Beast believers are very dangerous, but they are a necessary group in the dream world. This seems to be the reason why the Gulan Sacrificial Tower was built in Gulanslova, the last city of beasts. Gravekeeper of wild beasts... That's what it means. Anti understood something. The beast miracle must be built, and the sacrificial tower was built for this purpose, but the beast nature cannot be allowed to overflow, otherwise people will turn into beasts. Eradicating the beast tribe is just a very basic humanistic action. This is a group of people who stick to their principles, and they are easily misunderstood by the outside world. [Event - "Balance between Human and Animal"] [Gift from "Faceros": You will get a chance to directly and unconditionally accommodate the Pillar of Reason without anchoring.] [Price: Animality greatly enhanced, effective immediately upon acceptance.] 【Whether to accept? 】 Anti suddenly had a long-lost inspiration in his eyes. This gift from Phaseros was top-notch. Although it was not a power that took effect immediately, it was an unconditional opportunity to directly receive a pillar. In other words, as long as the Pillar of Reason was in front of him, Anti could immediately become the Pillar of Reason. Instead of taking the pillars to feed foreigners, let Antioch accommodate them. Anti wanted. Phaselos's reason is biased towards humanity, and although Shuman said that the strangers had no ill will towards Anti himself, he felt it necessary to add leverage to his own humanity. He didn't think that he and himself could just sit down and have a peaceful chat and it would end perfectly. The stranger is a super-enhanced version of himself, except that he cannot use conventional miracles. Anti's original intention of studying other miracles was to narrow the gap between the two. Now that a powerful power that can belong to him alone is in front of him, there is no reason for Anti to give up. But I don’t know where the pillar of sanity is. If he accepted it, he would only get the qualification, but he would immediately have to bear the price of his beastly nature growing stronger.
The dog had just settled down not long ago, but now this makes him excited again. The fact that Faseros suddenly gave a reward at this time was quite obvious. He hoped that Anti would interfere in the affairs of the orcs. accept. Black and white words flooded into Anti's mind. Anti's body trembled slightly, and his eyes suddenly turned into sharp animal pupils. Xiuman and Rafafar sensed something was wrong at the first moment. Rafafar was puzzled, while Xiuman frowned slightly, and his hand, which was about to take out a candy, dropped naturally. It took only about two seconds for Anti to turn around, and all the abnormalities had been suppressed: "Anyway, I understand. I can help if you need me." Rafafar looked at Anti, still somewhat puzzled, but after getting Anti's response he did not get too entangled and simply bowed and turned to leave. Xiuman came and sat down next to Anti: "Why did your animal nature suddenly swell?" At such a close distance, it was impossible for Xiuman not to see it. "Take some tips." Anti said vaguely. "Okay, take it easy. Animality is a layer of human nature. The current situation is closely related to you. It can be of help to you in future dialogues with divinity." Xiuman said. "I'm trying... By the way, do you know where the pillar of reason is?" Xuman seemed to be quite familiar with Faseros, and Anti asked him directly. Xiuman said: "I don't know. Faseros finally found Luca alone. Although he asked me if I wanted to accompany him for the last time, I refused." The topic suddenly became heavy. "Facelos... Even if he is a comrade who has truly helped you a lot, must he die just because he is a Pillar God?" Anti asked puzzled. "That's necessary in order to reset the failed ritual." Xiuman sighed. "Ritual?" "The First God's Rebirth Ceremony." Xiuman said, "The entire Pillar God Era was shrouded in this invisible ceremony. When Lebaons fell, it was basically certain that the ceremony had failed. No one would be able to stand on their own at the top anymore. So we had to start all over again." "Must a new first god be born? And what kind of future are those plans for the future that you are talking about?" An asked. Xiuman pointed to the sky and said, "Because of the erosion of nothingness, the world of existence has completely collapsed." "abyss?" "The abyss is just an outpost. It is the product of the intersection of nothingness and existence after the outside world mixes into existence. It is just a precursor." Xuman denied it. "An enemy from outer space." The first thing that came to Anti's mind was the classic foreign invasion. But Shuman denied it, saying, "It's not some enemy from outer space. It's the world that is self-destructing due to unknown reasons under the influence of an outer layer. This is my main task now, to investigate why this phenomenon occurs." Another new and important secret. Anti thought of something and asked, "You said you have seen three beings who have the best chance of becoming the first god, and the third one is the Hand of Heaven and Earth. So the first one is Lebaonce?" "Yes." Xiuman confirmed with a serious face, "Half of the Pillar Gods in the Pillar God Era died at its hands. It was the undisputed strongest existence in that ritual battle. It was not based on any affinity, but its power was the reason why it became the first god." Somewhat shocking.
After all, from what Anti knew, although he knew that Lebanon was strong, he didn't know how strong Lebanon was. He only saw the tip of the iceberg from a limited perspective. He felt a more direct impact from Xiuman's words. Half of the pillar gods, this record alone is beyond doubt. "What about the second one?" Anti asked again. "Cynthia," Shuman said without hesitation. The King of True Creation. Anti was not surprised either. The reason was simple. It was directly comparable to the creative power of the first God who created the world... Suddenly, an idea flashed through Anti's mind, and he asked without hesitation: "If Lebaonce had not died strangely, the miracle twins, could you still win?" Shuman was silent. This seems to be a very difficult question. "I survived Lebaons's hands twice. The first time was because I was unknown and it didn't care about me at all. The second time was when all of us miracle workers encountered it together. The deaths of Kashira, Zoni, Pansalo, Longye... and the timely arrival of Luca and Cynthia gave the rest of us a chance to survive." Xiuman said slowly. It must have been a brutal battle, but he did not shy away from it. At the same time, he also told Antio that at least all the first miracle users combined could not compete with Lebanon. "As for Luca and Cynthia... I can't be sure. At that time, Lebaonce withdrew his troops because the Star Pillar God Luo Xisi attacked his dynasty. We can't see the brief and simple fight between the three." "Sorry." Anti apologized for his somewhat presumptuous question. "It's okay, it's just a fact." Xiuman laughed again, "We lost, but Luca and Cynthia didn't. Even if we really have to fight Lebaons to the death, we have no choice for the future of mankind. And there is no if in reality. We humans won, and it continues to this day. Although Lebaons doesn't know why, it did fall. That's enough." Anti nodded. "You have to work hard." Xiuman patted Anti's shoulder, stood up lightly and went back to the camp to deal with things. Anti was stunned for a moment. Why are you suddenly asking him to cheer up? Suddenly, Anti looked up into the distant sky. An eagle just flew over? …… The edge of the Eastern Zenith Mountains. A group of people covered in tattered cloth were also trekking in the mountains. They moved lightly, as if they were walking on flat ground, and their aura blended with the surroundings. If you look closely, you can easily see hair and sharp claws sticking out from under the tattered and dirty cloth. They are not "people". Suddenly, a dark shadow descended from the sky, sweeping away the dust around it and landing gently on the ground. "There are humans over at the Tiandi Mountains. They don't seem to be tracking us, but there is something very strange in that team. We still need to pay attention." "Has it been discovered?"
"I'm not sure." The Eagle Man didn't say anything out loud. Humans should not be underestimated. "I have tried my best to increase the altitude, hide myself and not look at them closely. I just passed by... Even so, there is a possibility that they will be noticed." "..." The leading orc thought for a moment after hearing this, and without much hesitation, he said, "Change the way." The other orcs had no objection. They moved silently, leaving no trace or breath along the way, and were extremely cautious. (End of this chapter)
