Ring of Fate

Chapter 1162: The Oath of the Styx (Ask for double monthly tickets at the beginning of the month)
As crimson meteors fell, the entire world outside the protected area began to burn. Various "natural disasters" in different galaxies in the universe solidified briefly, and then either became violent or subsided.

Behind the "Old Ones" who were attacking the illusory barrier of the astral plane with all their might, a hand-drawn black hole and its attached accretion disk appeared. The sea of ​​energy represented by the picture quickly fell back and fell into a cold silence.

Many "natural disasters" befell here.

This was deliberately created by Lumian using the symbol that was naturally triggered when he completely contained the "City of Disaster" and was promoted to the "Root of Disaster" and "Destruction of Natural Disaster".

He did not expect these untargeted "natural disasters" to severely damage the "Old Ones", but only hoped to bring about chaos and allow Mr. Fool to free up his hands for a short period of time.

At this moment, there was a sound of plucking strings, and the black hole and its attached accretion disk, which looked like a hand-drawn picture, became thinner and smaller, losing their conceptual sense.

A black hole that truly becomes a painting will instinctively tear apart the dimensions that carry it, wanting to suck them inside and change its current state.

A huge and terrifying mouth suddenly appeared and swallowed the "scroll" containing the black hole in one gulp.

Multiple abstract stomachs emerged, sometimes expanding, sometimes contracting, fiercely fighting against the food to be digested.

The original hunger, the symbol of devouring, the never-satisfied aggregation, the sweeper of all things!
The other "Outer Gods" also responded one by one to quell the "natural disaster" that broke out behind themselves and the "Old Ones".

At this moment, the crimson meteors also fell into the muddy light emitted by the blood-red moon.

The blood-stained ocean of light was shattering and being reborn at the same time, causing the crimson meteor to approach the huge figure at an increasingly slower speed.

But apart from this "sea" formed by blood-red light, all other places were ignited by deep red, including the moonlight that originally illuminated the western continent, which also burned out and disappeared.

Seizing this opportunity, taking advantage of the brief confusion among the Old Ones and the sudden reduction in pressure on the illusory barrier, "Lord of Mysteries" Klein separated a figure and cast his gaze towards the protected area.

Trier in the protected area was still peaceful. The "mysterious queen" Bernadette, who was standing on the terrace, had already taken out the crown inlaid with dark gems and was holding it in both hands.

The crown suddenly flew up, flew out of the protected area, and flew into the sky above the western continent.

Following it was a brass book that fell from the gray fog, and two rays of light that flew out from behind the cross and the protected area respectively.

In just a blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the magnificent stone gate standing in the clouds and fell into the hands of the huge figure wearing the emperor's crown and his face covered with tassels.

The figure nodded towards the Star Realm, turned around, returned to the top of the Thirty-Three Heavens, and sat in the position representing the Emperor of Heaven.

He immediately put the crown inlaid with dark gems on his head, overlapping it with the original Imperial Crown.

He tightly grasped the brass book in his hands, and the other two rays of light hovered for a second before merging into his body.

In the protected area, seeing the uniqueness of the "Black Emperor" disappear before her eyes, the "Mysterious Queen" Bernadette couldn't help but sigh softly.

This was one of the real reasons why Lumian came to visit her using the prophecy as an excuse.

Through the Lamp God’s description of the urgency of the situation and His final suggestion to temporarily strengthen the “Land of Disorder,” the “Mysterious Queen” Bernadette immediately understood what Mr. Fool wanted to express:
He wanted to borrow the uniqueness of the "Black Emperor".

By then, Bernadette had made her decision.

Behind her, the figure of Queen Roselle wearing a gorgeous golden crown appeared and said in a complicated tone:
"As long as the order and rules he established are still there, he can be resurrected."

"Can the 'Land of Disorder' that has obtained all the uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics become the true 'Old Ones'?" Bernadette asked as if talking to herself.

"No, the consciousness of the 'Land of Disorder' is mixed with too many foreign spirits. It is not a complete birth and is still in chaos. Even if everything is gathered together, it cannot be completely transformed. Perhaps it will take decades or hundreds of years for a new, unified consciousness to emerge and for the 'Shadow of Order' to truly become a reality.

"The only way to make the 'Land of Disorder' immediately become the 'Old Ones' is to remove the seal and release the 'Djinn', but no one can predict what the 'Djinn' will do after getting rid of the seal.

“The Lord of Mysteries can only use this method to temporarily strengthen the Kingdom of Disorder, bringing it close to the level of the Old Days, which will be of some use in subsequent battles.” Empress Roselle explained simply.

He paused and said:
"Even if the 'Country of Disorder' really merged and gave birth to a new consciousness before his resurrection, becoming the 'Shadow of Order' and not returning the uniqueness of the 'Black Emperor', with the help of the 'Lord of Mysteries', he can also be resurrected by using the rules, but he can only recover two copies of the 'Prince of Order' extraordinary characteristics."

The "Mysterious Queen" Bernadette turned her body and looked at Queen Roselle. She was silent for a second and said:

"how about you?"

Queen Roselle showed a look of relief and satisfaction:
"If the apocalypse can be passed, the mirror world should have a relatively normal ruler. At that time, there will be a reflection world in the mirror that is no longer dark."

…………

With the suicide attack of "Storm Lord" Leodro and the coming of the "Disaster of Destruction", the blockade of the Western Continent by the "Fallen Mother Goddess" was completely opened.

"Goddess of Night" Amanesis and "God of Steam and Machinery" Stiano took the opportunity to descend from the astral realm to the Dragon Locking Tower.

The former is wearing a layered but simple black classical long skirt, and her face seems to be covered with layers of gauze, hazy and beautiful; the latter seems to be composed of many civilization scrolls, and finally condensed into a middle-aged man.

The "Night Goddess" Amanesis nodded to Master Haoli and communicated with him through her mind:
"let's start."

Master Haoli closed his eyes and let the broad, dark, colorless straight river flow out from the void and flow in front of the "Goddess of Night".

In the illusory dark river, one after another, figures dressed similarly to Master Haoli appeared, floating up and down. Among them, the one who could still remain sober was the "Underworld Man" wearing a rusty iron crown and with a pale beard fluttering under his chin.

The "Goddess of Night" Amanesis pointed at the silently flowing "River of Everlasting Darkness" and said with her mind:
"With the River of Eternal Darkness as my witness, I, Amanesis, will strengthen the Haoli lineage and make all the disciples of the sect cultivate both internally and externally, and gain special characteristics. If you violate this oath, your essence will backfire and you will sink to the bottom of the river forever!"

The "Underworld Man" who had already completed the communication and was just going through the process nodded slightly, stretched out his pale right hand which had the texture of jade but many cracks, or flowed yellow pus or grew white feathers, and pressed it on the head of the "Goddess of Night" Amanesis:
"You should be the head teacher!"

Along with these words, streams of light rose from the "River of Eternal Darkness", interweaving into a number of complex, orderly symbols, and fell into the body of the "Goddess of Night" Amanisis.

Amanesis found himself in the dark and wide river without knowing when. The shadows and skeletons of successive Haoli masters were gnawing at his arms, his back and his soul.

Amanesis, who had already taken control of the tributary of the "River of Eternal Darkness" in advance, did not panic, and fought against the chaotic consciousness carrying a large number of the spirits of the Tao.

The straight imaginary river passed through His body and flowed back in the other direction.

…………

The "God of Steam and Machinery" Stiano sat cross-legged in front of the "Tianshi", and the other party's thoughts echoed in his mind:

“You have two choices:

"One is to worship me as your master and join my sect. I will teach you the Shangqing Lu and pass on the position of Heavenly Master to you, so that you can control the 'wilderness of knowledge' that you are talking about. However, there are hidden concerns about this matter..."

As the thought echoed, wandering figures appeared in the wilderness behind the "Tianshi". Most of them wore feathered robes and tall crowns, some had hideous faces, some were rotten, and they showed strong malice.

"They are the 'celestial masters' of all generations and high-level practitioners who have achieved great success in their practice.

"Influenced by the 'Mother of No Birth', after the first generation of 'Heavenly Masters' achieved the Dao, each generation of 'Heavenly Masters' must have the corresponding bloodline and must undergo complete cultivation.

"But you don't have it. With the help of the Shangqing Lu, I can help you contain the 'wilderness of knowledge' for a short period of time, but you will be retaliated against afterwards. I don't know whether you can bear it, resolve the resentment and hatred of the 'heavenly masters' and high-level masters of the past, and not be dragged into the wilderness and become a member of the wandering crowd.

“The second option is to become my disciple and join my sect, and I will teach you the Three Caves and Five Thunder Scrolls.

"After being able to exchange letters with fellow Daoist Zhou, I combined the experience of my predecessors and perfected the 'Three Emperors Deliverance Array'. You can co-host the array with me as a true disciple and lend me your power. I will temporarily merge with you to fight against the evil demons from outside the domain."

In just a moment, the "God of Steam and Machinery" Stiano grasped the "Master's" ideas through the infusion of knowledge.

He also asked in the form of pure information flow:
"Will both approaches eventually lead to a brief 'old day'?"

The "Tianshi" holding the whisk shook his head:
"Neither of us can. We both still lack time. You are not like the new leader of the Haoli lineage, who has already mastered part of the power of Tao.

"These two options can only take us a short cut, but they cannot lead us to enlightenment."

The "God of Steam and Machinery" Stiano knew that time was running out, so he knelt down after a little consideration and answered:

"I would like to take you as my master and become a part of the magic circle."

The "Tianshi" was a little disappointed, as if he did not get the relief he expected.

He pressed the whisk onto Stiano's shoulders:
“Since the matter is urgent, we will just confer the title and ordination.

"From now on, your Taoist name is:
"Fukuma."
