Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 3853 So you guys don't get along?

The original Outer Gods, "Nameless Mist" and "Darkness," were born from Azathoth, the creator of creation. They are the son and daughter of Azathoth. Their information is secret and cannot be traced back to the past. Many Great Old Ones are unaware of the existence of these two great gods.

However, these two primordial Outer Gods are not entirely absent from reality, nor are they completely cut off from each other. Occasionally, their mysterious powers will leak out and be discovered by some wizards or wise men, who will immediately be overjoyed, believing that they have found the truth of the universe.

Ye Lin carefully studied the soul fragments of the evil magician Gilly Maen, read the information within, and found the corresponding ritual magic circle and the story of how the other party obtained the magic circle.

About three years ago, Professor Gilly Mann, who was renowned at the Imperial Magic School, led a group of young students on an expedition to a ruin on the continent. The plan was to conduct a seven-day investigation before returning to the capital.

To put it bluntly, this expedition and investigation was just an extracurricular activity. The adventurers had already explored the inside and outside of the ruins to a great extent, so theoretically there was no danger.

However, in the middle of the second night, something strange happened. A student disappeared after letting out an incredibly terrifying scream. Everyone woke up in terror. Afterwards, blood and mysterious burn marks were found on the walls near the camp.

Another accompanying professor immediately decided to terminate the extracurricular activities and reorganize a capable team to conduct a thorough investigation of the ruins. Gilly Marne was one of the members of the investigation team.

The investigation revealed that the missing student was dead. His blood, torn clothing, eyes, and heart were found placed in the center of a mysterious magic circle... Finally, it was announced that a ruthless band of robbers existed in the ruins.

But according to Gilly Marn's memory, the accompanying professors and powerful figures discovered a hidden door deep within the ruins. Behind the door was a mysterious tomb chamber containing a coffin covered with eye-shaped patterns and a magical lamp that never went out.

The vice-dean immediately decided to use magic to destroy the tomb and forbid anyone from entering. Out of curiosity and the mysterious calling, Gilly Marn entered the tomb.

The next segment of memory presents a fragmented and chaotic form, not only completely reversing the chronological order but also possessing a strong sense of contradiction. Morning and evening are distorted, often interspersed with inexplicable memories, as if small parts were randomly cut from the souls of many people and then pieced together.

Finally, there are scenes of Gilly Marne undergoing a drastic personality change, killing hundreds of people, and harvesting their eyes and hearts.

Ye Lin remained silent for a few seconds, then pointed his finger and annihilated the remaining fragments of Gilly Maen's soul. He then left the capital and appeared at the ruins where the magic school's extracurricular activities were held. The area was surrounded by broken walls and overgrown with weeds and vines.

Legend has it that this place was once the capital of a small kingdom, but overnight, a mysterious force descended, causing the sky to collapse and the earth to cave in, destroying everything.

"Mysterious power, that's a term that's quite common in outer universes." Ye Lin smiled silently, looking into the depths of the ruins.

In the tomb destroyed by magical power, a coffin covered with eye-shaped patterns was buried in a large amount of rubble, dust and darkness. The coffin was huge, about ten feet long, silent and without a single scratch on its surface, as if it were a giant buried there.

Ye Lin acted with extreme caution, silently raising his state to its peak. He used spatial power to cut and replicate a perfect mirror space, transferring the coffin into it, and carving intricate and beautiful lines on the ground to construct a magic circle to summon the nameless mist.

The reason for using the mirror space to summon the nameless mist is that this is, after all, a planet inhabited by a large number of humans and other intelligent races. If an accident occurs, innocent people may be harmed.

The reason Ye Lin didn't summon it in the deserted starry sky was that since the power of the nameless mist had leaked here before, it would be better to stay as close to the original environment and location as possible, which might increase the success rate.

boom!
The coffin, covered in eye-shaped patterns, burst forth with a magical energy wave, blasting away a large amount of rubble and dust that had been pressing down on it. The rubble and dust were thrown hundreds of meters away with a shrill sound. Then, with a loud crash, the coffin lid fell off by itself and crashed to the ground. The scene looked extremely eerie.

Ye Lin remained expressionless as he calmly looked inside the coffin. There was no corpse inside; instead, it was filled with a thick mist, neither gray nor pure black, but a shadow that blocked out the light.

This is not a nameless fog, but merely a corner of corrupted, mysterious energy.

Immediately, the coffin stirred, emitting a sharp and terrifying sound, like the howl of a demon. Suddenly, a shadowy mist surged outwards, seemingly connecting to an infinite space. In a very short time, the shadowy mist engulfed the Mirror Ruins and continued to spread outwards into the surrounding forest.

Ye Lin was shrouded in a shadowy mist, and the burning sensation between his brows intensified. Suddenly, pairs of eerie and terrifying eyes opened in the mist. They were different shapes and sizes, some even bleeding, but they all shared a common thread: they were filled with intense hatred.

All those eyes instantly fixed on Ye Lin, scrutinizing his entire body, as if they could pounce on him at any moment to devour his flesh, tear at his soul, and annihilate this poor, offending worm.

"It's fake, but not entirely fake. There's a bit of truth in it. You've been corrupted. Through you, I can trace the exact location of the Nameless Mist." Ye Lin remained calm, showing no panic at the current situation, but rather a sense of delight.

Eyes of varying sizes and colors, some even bleeding, drifted in the mist. Then, as if offended by Ye Lin's words, their hatred intensified, and they rapidly approached, moving through the mist as if trying to merge into Ye Lin's body.

One of the eyes suddenly burst into flames just before it touched Ye Lin, turning into a fine dust. A scream rang out, accompanied by a sense of relief and liberation.

The remaining eyes retreated like lightning, then coalesced, writhing and howling in a viscous substance, eventually transforming into a gigantic body covered entirely in eyes, devoid of facial features and internal organs, composed entirely of bloodstained eyes.

"Who are you?" Ye Lin asked.

“I am… Neog Soship,” the human form made of eyes spoke.

Ye Lin chuckled, his voice containing a mysterious magic that dispelled the pollution and awakened his memories. He said, "The Nameless Mist couldn't possibly be just a minor character like you at the Origin level. You're probably a pitiful worm that's been corrupted, a collection of the bodies and fragmented souls of those who have been corrupted."

Bubble had told him that Neog Sosip was a name of the Nameless Mist.

Of course, this name was not its natural origin, but rather a name given to the nameless fog by certain fanatics.

Just like how Naya's original name wasn't Naya, but because everyone called her that so often, Naya became her main name.

The other person hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "I am Sandy Peterson. I don't belong here. I come from another world. I got lost during a ritual that actively summoned Neog Sosip and have been wandering in the unclean mist for countless years..."

The enormous body swayed precariously, and some of its eyes, such as those at the knees, had been crushed, making the whole thing look like it could collapse at any moment.

"I'll grant you liberation," Ye Lin said.

"Who do you think you are!" The giant, composed of numerous eyes, suddenly seemed enraged and roared:
"I have spent my whole life finding the way to summon him. I have succeeded. I have obtained the power of Neog Sosip. I am now a god, the source of impurity. I have become one with Him."

Those eyes all emitted beams of eerie black light, transforming into a spiritual state that could not be blocked by matter, pointing directly at Ye Lin's soul. The shadowy mist was no longer calm, stirring up a gale, flying sand and stones, and howling ghosts and wolves.

The giant charged forward, leaving a trail of mysterious liquid behind it. Ye Lin sighed inwardly, then swept his gaze across it calmly. The giant was instantly disintegrated by the unfathomable power, crumbling away with a whoosh. The pupils of each eye reflected the image of its former owner—men and women, old and young.

Some of them looked relieved and paid respects to Ye Lin, while others were still raging and roaring, believing that Ye Lin had ruined everything for them and deserved to die.

In the end, Ye Lin purified all the eyes; otherwise, if someone were to accidentally summon them in the future, they would be devoured by hatred—a pollutant that stands before the Gate of Nameless Mist.

Ye Lin continued to activate and perfect the ritual magic circle, carefully relinquishing control of his body until the magic circle emitted energy of reverse summoning, which engulfed him.

…………

"This is... the Nameless Mist..."

Ye Lin first touched his glowing brow, and a dazzling, inexhaustible power surged out, flowing through every corner of his body, perfectly disguising his aura as bubbles.

From the outside, Night Forest appeared as a radiant and mysterious sphere.

He found himself in a mysterious, vast, and boundless sea of ​​stars, where countless enormous stars remained in their fixed positions, emitting light of different colors, any one of which was comparable in size to the planet Arad.

Amidst the stars, a shadowy sea of ​​mist permeated the entire landscape. The countless stars resembled glass beads dropped onto a gray-black plush carpet, seemingly beautiful and dazzling, yet extremely tiny. The nameless sea of ​​mist engulfed everything.

"The Nameless Mist, a sea of ​​mist capable of engulfing a brilliant galaxy, harbors a mysterious will. If it were to fully awaken, its strength would likely rival that of the Squinty Eyes and the others, and it has already begun to touch upon the realm of creation." Ye Lin knew he had found the right place; this was the location of the Nameless Mist, a different dimension beyond the outer universe, an ultimate realm that even the Great Old Ones could not trace.

Even the slightest leak of energy can trigger a frenzy among countless people.

Ye Lin closed his eyes. According to Bubble, once the Nameless Mist was found, there was nothing more to do but wait.

The great, nameless mist will engulf the radiant sphere that symbolizes her true form, embracing her child with the tenderness of a mother. When their wills gradually align, Ye Lin can attempt to break through to the divine realm one last time.

By using the nameless fog to connect, to disguise, to deceive the heavens and the sea, one can avoid the blind and foolish gaze, and avoid the process that all those who break through to the divine realm must encounter blind and foolishness.

If luck is on your side, you might even be born with special and unpredictable powers like the Power of Inexhaustibility, the Power of Divergence, and the Power of the Crimson Abyss, which would be the fourth of the Three Pillar Gods.

In other words, despite the fact that the Old Gods like Nordens are at odds with the Great Old Ones, their power is actually believed to have originated from the great, blind, and foolish god.

Following Bubble's advice, Ye Lin made no move but secretly prepared, gathering all his strength. The moment he obtained the Divine Realm Law, he left the outer universe, unable to linger.

However, something strange happened...

The nameless mist engulfed the terrifying, gray-black body of the stars, causing ripples that transformed into a tentacle covered in eyes. Those eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion, binding the radiant sphere of inexhaustible power, and then it was thrown out directly.

The radiant sphere, symbolizing the bubble's true form, rolled countless times before crashing into a glowing dead star. The earth cracked open with terrifying fissures, and the sphere continued its journey, nearly embedding itself into the star's core.

"what?"

Ye Lin was stunned for a moment. What was going on? The nameless mist had thrown out bubbles. Was it beating up its naughty daughter?

"As expected, you... try again." Bubble's voice rang directly in Ye Lin's mind. A wisp of her will was imprinted between his brows, which could only awaken after he found the Nameless Mist.

"Bubble, what's going on?" Ye Lin asked coldly, sensing that there was something seriously wrong.

"Never mind that, just try again."

Ye Lin twitched the corner of his mouth, and for the time being, he could only do as he was told. He manipulated the radiant sphere symbolizing bubbles and brought it close to the sea of ​​mist of the nameless fog from the dark and deep void, releasing a weak aura.

Then, Ye Lin was thrown out again, and this time he was thrown even further.

At the same time, several huge, indifferent eyes opened in the sea of ​​fog of the nameless mist. Those eyes had a wide variety of strange colors, as if they had collected all the colors in the world and then painted them into eye shapes, outlining dizzying coil patterns.

Ye Lin raised his voice slightly and asked, "Bubble, tell me..."

"Try again. This time I will do my best to help you release my aura," Bubble interrupted.

After a series of unclear and ambiguous arguments, Ye Lin approached the sea of ​​mist of the Nameless Mist. This time, Bubble, with the help of the mark, unleashed its inexhaustible power. The radiant sphere was highly similar in color to the eyes of the Nameless Mist, both seemingly encompassing all colors.

However, this time the nameless fog seemed to be completely enraged. The fog sea that had engulfed the stars opened one colorful, coil-shaped eye after another, staring at the night forest with indifference and ruthlessness. Everywhere, in every direction and corner, there were dazzling, distorted, and bizarre phenomena.

A terrifying sense of pressure emanated from the void, as an extremely powerful, chaotic will filled with a devouring desire was awakening and descending.

"Run!" Bubble shouted immediately.

"You damn Bubble, are you hiding something from me?!" Ye Lin was stunned when he heard this. He gritted his teeth unwillingly. It wasn't that he couldn't beat Nameless Mist, but this was not his territory after all, so it was better to leave.

Bubble was slightly embarrassed and said, "Ahem, it's a very common situation: a grumpy mom, a sleeping dad, and a rebellious daughter who doesn't come home."

Of course, "nameless fog" and "blind folly" cannot define their gender; they are just names Bubble made up for the sake of convenience.

Ye Lin couldn't help but feel annoyed. Now he understood that the relationship between Bubble and Nameless Mist wasn't good!
