Ring of Fate

Chapter 1092 Above the Sequence
Mr. Fool turned his gaze to Magician Fors.

Magician Fors cleared his throat out of habit and said to Chariot Lumian:
"You should have guessed that there is another level above Sequence 0, right?"

“Those great beings?” Lumian asked back without any surprise.

"Yes, the great beings above the sequence." The "Magician" lady nodded, "They contain all the uniqueness of the source substance and the corresponding path of the source substance, and each of the corresponding paths has a sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics. They are also called the 'Old Ones' and 'Outer Gods', and their spirits will never be erased."

“‘Great Old Ones’…‘Outer Gods’…” Lumian chewed over the two terms.

The "Magician" lady smiled and said:

"This is how I personally understand it. All the great beings above the current sequence are the true gods defined by Mr. Fool. They are either the personalities split off from the original Creator and the children born directly, or the first batch of creatures born by the Great Mother. They actually appeared in this universe before the original Creator woke up and completely destroyed himself. Their status originated from the old times.

"This is a condition that subsequent ascenders will never be able to achieve. Even if they really become great beings, they are only above the newborn sequence..."

As she spoke, Ms. Magician felt as if she was discussing Mr. Fool in person, and her voice gradually became softer.

She paused and said:

“So, those great beings like to call themselves ‘The Old Ones’, and some true gods call them ‘The Old Ones’.

"The remaining 'Old Ones' are all outside the barrier. Some of them want to invade our world, so they are also called 'Outer Gods'."

“I see… Uniqueness corresponds to Sequence 0 True God, and Essence corresponds to above the sequence…” Lumian summarized it in his own way.

Ms. Magician quickly glanced at Mr. Fool, and seeing that this great being had no other reaction, she continued:

“The Sephiroth is a collection of symbols, the source of authority, and the origin of power.

"Back then, when the original creator woke up and caused the destruction of the old era, a total of six types of essences were split, sixteen uniquenesses, and all the extraordinary characteristics of the sixteen divine paths."

The destruction of the old era? Mr. Fool, Aurore, Franka and other time travelers came from the old era that was destroyed when the Prime Creator woke up? Lumian nodded imperceptibly.

Magician Fors considered for a moment and said:

"But currently, there are not just six kinds of sephiroth in our world, but nine."

Nine? Lumian asked in astonishment:

“Did it already exist?”

In addition to "Source Castle", "Chaos Sea", "City of Disaster", "River of Eternal Darkness", "Wilderness of Knowledge" and "Key of Light", there are three more source materials?
Ms. Magician shook her head:
“No, it’s from outside.

"The awakening and self-destruction of the original Creator was a disaster for the entire universe. During this process, the three children He gave birth to, the Fallen Mother Goddess, um, the Great Mother, the Mother Tree of Desire, and the Son of Chaos were the most affected. Their own essences were torn into two halves, and one half was attracted to the place where the Original Creator self-destructed, which is our world, or planet, with its corresponding uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics.

“Since then, there have been nine types of essence, twenty-two uniquenesses, and twenty-two divine pathways within the barrier.

"Why did it end up being nine and twenty-two? Perhaps we have to use the theory of the Moss Trappist Order that everything is a number and numbers have spirituality to explain it. Nine and twenty-two have special mystical meanings."

When Lumian heard the "magician" lady mention terms like "fallen mother goddess", he suddenly felt as if a lot of eyes were cast at him, but they couldn't penetrate the gray mist.

At this time, Mr. Fool tapped the edge of the bronze table and added:
“Normally, the source substance is like the uniqueness, indivisible, cannot be copied, and can never be destroyed. There is only one situation that can cause them to be torn apart, and that is when they encounter the original creator.

“He is ‘exceptional’, ‘incredible’, ‘incomprehensible’, and ‘indescribable’. All things that would not happen may happen when encountering Him. It is unknowable, undiscussable, and indescribable.

“And it was this one and only time that the Essence was torn that the Old Ones discovered that the torn Essence could replenish itself:
"The source material from the 'Fallen Mother Goddess' that was torn to our planet completed the 'Mother Nest' by itself, and the 'Mother Tree of Desire' lost its honorific names such as 'Father of Demons, Source of Curse', and they were perfected into the 'Shadow World'.

"Among them, the experience of 'Son of Chaos' was relatively different. It is unknown whether his main consciousness followed the torn source substance into the barrier, or whether he later used his special symbol to project his main consciousness in, trying to reclaim the torn source substance. In short, his main consciousness was defeated or deceived by Tianzun, and sealed in a magic lamp formed by a 'Miracle Worker' Beyonder characteristic. This is the origin of the '0' level seal '05-0'.

"The main consciousness of the 'Son of Chaos' became the 'Djinn'. The source substance that was torn into the barrier completed itself and became the 'Land of Disorder'. The one that remained outside the barrier was called the 'Uncertain Mist', which is the one that the 'Brokers' believe in. The 'Uncertain Mist' has a certain consciousness."

After listening to Mr. Fool’s account of the Son of Chaos’s experience, Lumian suddenly found it a little ridiculous that the “brokers” of the “School of Truth” were looking for the Sealed Artifact “0-05”:
It's like saying "Our God's brain is lost, please help us find it."

While it was funny, Lumian was more concerned about another thing:
“The ‘mother nest’…is it in the western continent?

“Mr. Fool, what you didn’t say before is that the one who activated the Hidden Sage is likely the Mother Nest?”

“Yes, these things are dangerous and polluting to those who do not have angel status, and they are unbearable.” Mr. Fool nodded gently and said, “In the middle and late period of the First Epoch, before the fall of the Celestial Lord, he sealed the seven sources of essence, namely ‘Mother Nest’, ‘Land of Disorder’, ‘World of Shadows’, ‘City of Disaster’, ‘River of Eternal Darkness’, ‘Wilderness of Knowledge’ and ‘Key of Light’, to the Western Continent and guarded them by Penglai.

"In this way, facing the approaching doomsday, all true gods who want to break through the sequence restrictions to deal with the invasion of foreign gods have only one choice, that is to support a 'Lord of Mysteries' to come out to remove the seal, and Tianzun can be resurrected in the body of the new 'Lord of Mysteries'."

It turns out that Mr. Fool and I had the same experience... He was "forced" by the gods to be trained by the Celestial Lord in order to resurrect himself, while I was forcibly created by the Blood Emperor in order to resurrect and fulfill a certain goal of the Aurora Society... Lumian felt a little sad and sentimental for a moment.

Mr. Fool continued:
"The fall of Tianzun was caused by the 'Original God' who also contained multiple essences. They almost perished together.

"Some of the arrangements left by the Heavenly Venerable were for his own resurrection, and some were to interfere with the resurrection of the 'Original God'. The same is true for that one.

"In short, there are many reasons why Tianzun was suppressed by me this time. The first is the help of the 'Original God'. The second is that the 'Fallen Mother Goddess' has other plans and did not exert her strength. The third is that Tianzun sealed most of the source in the Western Continent. This arrangement has led to developments beyond His prediction.

"The Beyonders of the Western Continent have relied on the sacrifices of generations. Without a magic potion system and many Beyonder characteristics, they have actually found a new path and grown up. For example, the 'Heavenly Master' and the 'Underworld Man' all have status and power close to that of gods. If they fight desperately regardless of their own safety, they can become even stronger. Penglai is hidden for this reason.

"How could such a high-ranking person watch Tianzun's resurrection and allow Penglai to play a role?"

So, the Heavenly Master's back-up plan was suppressed by the Heavenly Masters? The Heavenly Master's arrangement to force everyone to cultivate a "Lord of Mysteries" actually destroyed His resurrection? Fate is really strange... Yes, everyone just wants the "Lord of Mysteries", and it doesn't matter whether the "Lord of Mysteries" is "Fusheng Xuanhuang Heavenly Master"... Lumian looked at the bronze table in front of Mr. Fool and knew that this great being had not finished speaking.

Mr. Fool looked at him and Magician Fors and said:

"After I woke up, although I couldn't remove the seal of the Western Continent, I was able to communicate with the 'Heavenly Master' through the seal.

"The 'Heavenly Master' told me that the ancestral temple of their sect was once attacked and occupied by the Luo Sect, and that many of the 'Heavenly Masters' of the past had emotional entanglements with the saints of the Luo Sect and had children with them."

"Master Luo..." "Chariot" Lumian and "Magician" Fors were both a little confused.

Mr. Fool smiled:

"There is a saying in Luojiao: 'The Mother of No Birth, the Homeland of the Void'."

"Mother of the Unborn, the Vacuum Homeland"... Vacuum Homeland... The other side of the world? Lumian suddenly understood:

"Is this a sect that believes in the 'Mother Nest'? 'The Mother of No Birth' is a name for the 'Mother Nest'?"

Mr. Fool nodded:
"Combined with what the 'Tianshi' said, there is reason to believe that the 'Knowledge Wilderness' was polluted and affected by the 'Mother Nest' at some point in the past.

"Perhaps the Hidden Sage is revitalized because of this."

I see... Tank Lumian finally understood the whole thing.

He raised the question again:

"'Fallen Mother Goddess', 'Mother Tree of Desire' and 'Uncertain Mist' want to invade our world in order to take back the torn essence?

"Who are the other 'Old Ones' outside the barrier? What are their goals?"

The "Magician" lady said with a slight headache:

"In addition to those three, those who want to invade our world include the 'Decay King' that the Disease Cult originally believed in, the 'Original Hunger' that Ludwig once served, the 'Unquenchable Whisper' believed in by the 'First Philosophy', the 'Superstar Master' who was the original owner of the spaceship in the Sea Prayer Ceremony, the 'Fate Ring' that you are most familiar with, the 'High-Dimensional Overlooker' of the 'Painter' path, and the 'Goddess of Fate' believed in by General Philip."

This...isn't this too much? It's more than the number of true gods in the barrier, and it's one level higher, beyond the sequence itself...Lumian was a little shocked, fear briefly emerged but was suppressed by courage.
