Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 1268: Snake Scale Prophecy
Just sitting there, Aiwass seemed out of place.

The other good masters were all wearing light-colored, gorgeous robes inlaid with gold and gems, with precious jewels hanging on their heads, necks, and hands. They had exquisite weapons hanging around their waists, and the followers behind them also carried various equipment as carriers.

Only Aiwass was wearing a plain black robe.

He didn't wear any jewelry, nor did he carry any weapons or protective gear. It was as if he was just here for a stroll, not to participate in the ceremony of summoning the Celestial Master.

"Well, everyone."

Aiwass said leisurely, "I know you don't like me - and it just so happens that I don't like you either. So why don't we just keep this attitude of dislike for each other? Why don't we just skip the red tape and the polite links that make us all uncomfortable?"

"——I think it's good!"

After a brief silence, the brave Ismaili responded loudly and gruffly.

He looked at Aiwass with some admiration in his eyes, and shouted loudly: "That's straightforward, what a man! This makes me think that you have some courage, not as hypocritical and cowardly as those rabbit ears. I say - old man, why not just do it like this?"

Ismail pretended that he was not very familiar with Aiwass. At the same time, he secretly supported Aiwass.

"...Do not be disrespectful, brave Ismaili."

The old man was silent for a while before answering him perfunctorily.

He was staring at Aiwass intently.

Do not know why……

From the moment he met Aiwass, Aymar Noor felt that there was something strange about Aiwass. He always felt like he had overlooked something important, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Seeing Aiwass's direct statement, Aymar Nur thought about it and felt that there was really no need to pretend anymore - it felt like he was treating Aiwass like a fool. And if he did that, he would be like a fool himself.

Since Aiwas knew what they were planning but still dared to come alone, it meant that he must have someone to rely on.

Then why not just follow your own plans... and see what everyone has prepared.

"it is good."

Aymar Noor nodded and declared with a serious expression: "Then, everyone - please follow me."

As he spoke, he walked towards the depths of the palace.

The other benefactors also stood up. Some looked at Aiwass with complicated eyes, while others left without even looking at him. But no one spoke to Aiwass, even the brave Ismaili just walked away silently.

There seemed to be an invisible barrier around Aiwass, or as if he was carrying some kind of untouchable curse, and people avoided him like he was filthy.

On the way, Aymar Noor explained the details of the ceremony to them:
"According to the requirements of the Tail Ring ritual, we plan to summon Yuan Tiansi at 7 o'clock on July 7. At that time, the Red of Disaster will gain strength from the Holy Number and support us."

"--support?"

Aiwass asked with great interest: "What type of support? Is He going to do it personally, or..."

"He will fight against Yuan Tiansi together with us."

Aymar Noor recited the prophetic poem with a solemn expression:
"From where the sun plunged into the sea, a thousand tongues of fire licked the bitter black salt bed.

“Skyfire bit the edge of the beast’s skirt, letting the sea water scream in the stone pot.

"The shepherd of the beast comes from a place where no sails move, no bells ring—

"He poured the last handful of salt water into the clay pot, just to wait for it to grow the snake's fangs."

"This is……"

Aiwass asked.

"Chapter 7 of Rest in Peace, The Prophecy of Serpent Scales."

Aymar Nur replied in a low voice: "Although people believe that the prophecy of Snake Scale City has been fulfilled... but this is not the case. The truth is hidden, and only a few people know that the destruction of Snake Scale City has nothing to do with the prophecy. Therefore, in addition to the prophecy of the Holy Spring, there is still a poem in Anxi that has not been fulfilled.

"If 'that beast' is Yuan Tiansi, then this sky fire and this sun wheel are undoubtedly the red of disaster. He has the power to burn the sea, and now is the time for him to demonstrate his power."

"——Even if the veil of balance is broken?"

Aiwass said with a half-smile: "Do you really believe that He is willing to risk being killed to descend to the heavens? Just like the Supreme God in the past?
"Or... is it because you intend to crown Yuan Tiansi as the King of the Scaled Ones. And He is worried that you will resurrect the Silver Crown Dragon?" "No matter which one, the result is the same."

Even though the nature of the ritual was exposed, Aymar Nur was not ashamed at all: "Yuan Tiansi is the ancient king. We are His servants, so why not crown Him? If a true God comes to stop us at this time, we will abandon darkness and join the light; and if no one stops us, He will lead us to greatness again, right?"

What this means is that they want Yuan Tiansi and Disaster Red to bid against each other, and they will follow whoever offers more benefits.

"--clown."

Aiwass sneered, "You are obviously a mortal, but you think you are scheming against the real God."

"Whether you are a clown or a madman, we just don't want to be a prisoner of fate anymore..."

Surprisingly, Aymar Nur did not refute Aiwas's words, but instead looked a little sad.

They walked for a long time before arriving at the ceremony room.

This is where the name "Holy Spring City" comes from——

The name "Aimaar Nur" should actually be translated as "Fountain of Light" if translated literally.

And this place can indeed be called the fountain of light.

Here is a cold spring and a frozen lake.

In the hot desert, there is a secret room made entirely of ice.

There was almost nothing in this empty and huge room. There was only the frozen lake with a crack in the middle that looked like a sun-like explosion. It looked like a bulletproof glass that had been pierced by a sniper rifle.

From the cracked spring, a snow-white liquid slowly flows out, emitting a chilly air, like dry ice emitting fairy-like white smoke.

Aymar Noor whispered the contents of the Holy Spring Prophecy:

"Deep in the throat of the earth, the holy spring crushed itself into a thousand mirrors,

“In each piece, there grows an apprentice of the Glass Witch.

"She had bathed in the same temperature of moonlight and shattered the same shape of moon disk.
"Nine times I sighed, nine times I closed my eyes.

"The children slowly built the snow into a mountain, while the holy spring waited for another snowfall.

"It wants to freeze itself into a piece of ice."

After "The Coming of the Indigo King", the language of this prophetic poem becomes more exaggerated and vague. It can be seen that the prophet is deliberately hiding something because he cannot express it in words.

However, when Aiwas heard this poem, he opened his eyes wide in surprise.

——Because he understood.

What is described here is the self-sealing of Amber, the nine reincarnations of the world... and the self-cutting of the forbidden pillar god!

What kind of poet is this!
The predictions of the future have changed many times. What kind of philosopher can see through the future to this extent?

Aiwass subconsciously put his hand on his chest, pressing against the emerald.

...Is that you, boss?

But the Lord of Scales and Feathers did not respond.

The surging holy light here made the magic power visible to the naked eye. They were like the misty glow of the sunset, making people unable to help but cast their eyes towards the liquid light leaking out of the broken "mirror".

"This is... the umbilical cord connecting the dream world and the material world, a mirror reflecting dreams and their reflections."

Aimar Nur stared at the small lake of less than 100 square meters in a trance, and whispered: "Back then, Anxi was not a resting place, and this place was not a barren desert.

“It was once the place where the gods came to earth.

"It was from this mirror that Sizhu jumped out and brought fire and light to the world.

"——This is the original body of the Twin Mirror that was once abandoned."
