Tantric family to divine dynasty

Chapter 496: Fate is Unpredictable (5K)

The flames of the war have burned to a white-hot climax. The sky and the earth seem to be engulfed by endless flames of war, and every inch of the air is shaking with the aftermath of the battle.

The figure of the Son of the Sun God was particularly dazzling in the endless flames of war, like a rising sun, so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it.

"Why don't you understand?"

"Why... such a narrow vision..."

"Apocalypse, are you worthy?"

He took a deep breath, and the strength of his whole body reached an unprecedented peak at this moment. With the surge of his will, the sky seemed to tremble!
There was a blazing golden light flashing in the eyes of the Son of the Sun God. It was a direct manifestation of the power of the sun. Every ray of light contained the power of destruction and rebirth!

"Come."

He slowly raised his hands, palms facing up, as if summoning something. In an instant, the power of the sun in the void surged wildly, gathering into dazzling beams of light that fell directly from the sky and poured into his body.

"Divine power?"

Prime Minister William instantly revealed a look of surprise and doubt. The Sun Saint had finally mobilized the divine power in his body. That was a gift from the scorching sun. Although it had been expected, this power seemed to be exaggeratedly strong!
As the power gathered, the Son of the Sun God emanated a light that blocked out the sky and the sun. The light was so strong that even the extraordinary beings below the Apocalypse had to squint their eyes to avoid being burned.

His figure was looming in the light, like a god of war walking out of ancient legend, majestic and sacred.

At this moment, the "Crown" made a voice that was neither male nor female, neither sad nor happy, and it was as ethereal as that of a god.

"Son of the Sun God... He is about to unleash his full power. Be careful."

The three Apocalypses except the "Crown" all retreated for the time being. They knew very well that the Son of the Sun God at this moment was no longer an existence that they could contend with with their own strength, and his power was so vast that it was enough to subvert all patterns on the battlefield.

Prime Minister William suddenly frowned, realizing that most of the opponent's strength was directed at him!
"You want to start with me?"

He was the first to be attacked by the Son of the Sun God. The gap in strength between the two sides was huge, so Prime Minister William had to release a powerful forbidden artifact to protect himself.

"We only need to use all the forbidden items with two-digit numbers to defeat him immediately. It will be disadvantageous for us if we drag it on for a long time!"

Prime Minister William, who was in a desperate situation, said something very correct, but no Apocalypse cooperated with the action. The double-digit forbidden artifacts were too costly and could not be used easily.

It would be better to wait until that divine power is completely consumed before taking action.

“It’s just like the sun!”

At first, Kano stared at this scene closely, his heart filled with shock and emotion. He did not expect that the power possessed by Apocalypse was so strong that it was simply not something that a monarch could match!
However, his eyes were soon burned by the endless sunlight.

"what!"

He subconsciously covered his eyes, feeling intense pain.

Suddenly, an unprecedented spatial force swept in without warning, as if a crack in an unknown dimension deep in the universe had quietly opened, releasing a mysterious and powerful gravitational force.

The force came so fast that Kano, who was in pain, was unable to react. He only felt that he was being tightly grasped by an invisible big hand. His body began to move involuntarily, passing through layers of space folds.

In a brief yet long moment, Kano's world was surrounded by endless colors and light. He seemed to have crossed the boundaries of time and space. All familiar scenes were rapidly receding until they completely disappeared from his sight.

Kano's heartbeat quickened, and in the blink of an eye, when the force finally weakened and slowly released him, he suddenly found himself in a completely different, dreamlike world.

"where is this place?"

Before my eyes was a brilliant green forest, with tall trees reaching into the sky and gleaming vines entwined around the trunks. Each leaf seemed to hold the secret of life, emitting a soft and fresh light as it swayed gently.

In the distance, one could vaguely see the light and graceful figures of elves running and playing in the woods. Their laughter was clear and pleasant, like the sound of nature. Standing in such a beautiful scenery, Kano still had not forgotten his confusion.

Where is this place?

Why was I suddenly teleported here?

Who won the battle just now?
"I never thought that Prime Minister William would dare to murder the Sun Saint and not give any face to the Sun Church at all..." He sighed subconsciously.

"The world has already changed, and you tore off the last fig leaf more than a decade ago, didn't you?"

The sudden voice made Kano frown. He turned his head and looked over. It was a noble and elegant elf with eyes shining with silver light. He had an outstanding temperament and looked very intelligent.

He approached slowly, with his hands behind his back.

"There are only a few people in history who have killed cardinals, and every one of them has been punished. Only you have been able to get away with it for more than a decade after killing a cardinal."

The Crescent Moon Sage, the "wisdom" of the Essence Tree organization, stared at Kano with interest and continued.

"Thus, the last bit of rules hidden deep in people's hearts disappeared, and in the eyes of today's extraordinary people, churches are no longer unattainable sacred existences."

"Without the protection of those gods, even the senior members of the church could still die at any time. Their lives are no more noble than anyone else's. In people's hearts, only power is the most important thing."

chain reaction.

Kano knew the point the other party wanted to express, which was that the behavior of the Fischer family caused the church to no longer be taken seriously by the two empires, so Prime Minister William dared to take action against the respected Sun Saint.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"The Tree of Essence, Wisdom." The Crescent Moon Sage replied.

The next casual sentence shocked Kano so much that he couldn't put it into words.

"I was the one who proposed the idea of ​​besieging and killing the Sun Saint. It's not easy to convince several Apocalypses in a short period of time. Fortunately, I had already laid the groundwork... In the end, all I needed was to wake them up."

"Without the gods in this world, the ones who can dominate everything should be the dozen or so Apocalypses."

"If they have to redistribute power, there will inevitably be a war."

"All I need to do is add fuel to the fire."

He walked up slowly, looked at Kano and said:

"You had croissants and coffee for your last meal, and there's residual warmth from the sun on your body... and right now you're feeling very complicated emotions deep down inside, excitement, curiosity, nervousness... By the way, you're thinking about how to lie, which is actually unnecessary because no one can lie in front of me."

"Why?" Kano raised his eyebrows, feeling increasingly uneasy.

"Because the trajectory of my destiny is to 'see the overall situation', there is almost nothing that I cannot see through." The Crescent Moon Sage's explanation began before Kano asked the question "why".

He seemed to have expected Kano to ask "why".

Kano fell into deep thought.

He possesses the power of prophecy, but it is unclear whether this "wisdom" is prophecy, wisdom, or some other special power.

What is the purpose of this mysterious man?
Who is he?

Just as Kano was about to ask, he heard...

The Crescent Moon Sage suddenly continued, "Next, you should ask about my purpose and who I am."

Kano stopped talking, and the Crescent Moon Sage continued with a smile.

"We, the leaders of the Tree of Essence, are not from the world of Krad, but are 'refugees' who fled from a world destroyed by the God of the Otherworld. You can call our race 'shadows'... We came to this world as spirits and reincarnated into one Krad person after another. We will only remember everything when we are awakened by the 'Crown'."

“Our purpose is simple.”

"We just want to take away all the extraordinary powers of this world and move on to the next world... until we get a world that is extremely suitable for our survival." The Tree of Essence, refugees from another world, shadows?
Kano just felt that the amount of information was too huge, but he could confirm one thing anyway, that is, the guy in front of him was definitely not a good person!

Suddenly he found himself controlled by some force and was completely unable to move, as if he was surrounded by the fragrance of flowers.

Wait a minute, it seems that I have smelled this smell in that space before. When was it exactly?
Kano fell into thought, and the Crescent Moon Sage continued speaking, holding up a finger.

"In addition to the blood power given to me by this elven body, the forbidden knowledge I obtained through the spirit world is a special power called 'Cross Left and Change Right'."

"Because of this forbidden knowledge, I can trade certain things for certain things...mostly conceptual."

"For example, I can trade part of my life for some spiritual power, or trade one of my arms for faster speed, but those are just the most basic uses... Ordinary extraordinary people will stop there."

The Crescent Moon Sage spread out his hands, one hand was shining with red light, and the other hand was shining with blue light.

"At this moment, I am trading 'information' to 'you' in exchange for more suppression of 'you' by my own bloodline power... My bloodline power is a flower-shaped monster that releases spiritual power. This spiritual power is not very strong, so I have to use this method to enhance the effect."

Switch left and right.

So that's how it is. Did he use this powerful-sounding power to bring himself back from that dimension?

However, Kano soon realized one thing, that it was very likely that Prime Minister William or the "Crown" had placed some mark on him in advance, allowing the other party's power to be successfully exerted.

The Crescent Moon Sage continued.

"Next, I will invade your body and become you, Kano Fisher. Although my bloodline power is not strong, its domain effect is very interesting. It is really interesting."

Be me?
Kano was completely stunned.

Soon, many elves who were playing in the forest stopped.

They came over one by one and looked at Kano. The look and expression in each of them were exactly the same as that of Crescent Moon Sage, without even the slightest difference.

These people seem to be controlled by the same invisible and intangible soul.

Kano knew that the soul controlling them was "Wisdom".

He finally realized that it might be some special power of the other party, and the other party might want to take away his body and become one of his many chess pieces.

Suddenly, the elves opened their mouths one by one, as if singing in unison to Kano, but no one actually made a sound.

The fragrance became stronger and stronger.

The strange scene made Kano's head swell and his whole body tremble.

not good!

In a mysterious dimension, a wandering soul is looking for a new body to house its consciousness. This soul has long lost its original body, but it still retains a strong desire to survive and a desire for power.

"The body of the Fisher family will be an excellent clone and weapon, and with this identity, I can infiltrate the Fisher family... That existence has not yet truly revived, and should not have self-awareness, so it will not notice my changes."

Shadow sensed Kano Fischer's increasingly weak body, but his still surging vitality, and decided to use him as his new body.

He first infiltrated around Kano's body and wrapped his soul with invisible tentacles. As a result, Kano's soul light became dimmer under the oppression of the shadow, as if it would go out at any time.

Then, the shadow began to exert the spiritual power existing in the bloodline realm, trying to separate Kano's soul from his body.

This process was full of pain and struggle. Kano's soul tried to resist in desperation but was powerless due to the disparity in strength and was eventually slowly pulled out by the shadow.

As Kano's soul left, his body became empty and powerless.

The shadow took the opportunity to rush into the empty shell and tried to merge with the flesh. Its consciousness gradually took over Kano's body and began to control this new body.

In that chaotic, unrealistic dimensional space, Shadow was immersed in the sense of accomplishment of obtaining a new body. Suddenly, an unprecedented sense of fear came over him like ice, causing him to tremble involuntarily.

This fear does not come from external physical threats, but from the tremors deep in the soul, as if some ancient and terrifying existence is watching it!
what!
The shadow slowly raised its head, and the scene before it shocked it so much that it could hardly think.

In the boundless darkness, an immeasurable figure slowly emerged - an existence beyond the comprehension of all living beings. Its form was twisted and weird, as if it was the embodiment of endless darkness, containing the mystery of infinite destruction. There was no light at all in the thick black fog, revealing contempt and despair for all life.

"Ah! Impossible! Why is He already awake..."

"That's not what the prophecy says. It's definitely not..."

"Is it an illusion?"

In front of this power, the shadow was as small as dust. All its wisdom, desires and strength seemed so insignificant at this moment.

At this moment, all that remains is despair.

Wisdom recalled their hometown which was completely destroyed by the otherworldly god, the Lord of Ashes. They could do nothing but flee except wait for everything to turn to ashes.

Now it tried to escape again, but found that its soul seemed to be tightly bound by invisible chains and it could not move. The terrible will of the end surged like a tide, devouring the shadow's consciousness bit by bit. It was a despair that could not be resisted or escaped.

With each of Carl's "breaths", the shadow's soul dissipated a little, until finally, it completely merged into the darkness and became part of the spiritual power.
A tiny soul was completely wiped out, and Carl still stood there quietly, as if nothing had ever changed.

All the elves fell down, and Kano Fischer's body fell down as well. The many bodies that had lost their souls were just empty shells and would soon become real corpses.

So Kano is about to die...

"Wow!"

The heavy rain was like a torrent bursting from the sky, suddenly pouring down through the dense forest.

Dark clouds covered the sky, blocking out the sun, completely swallowing up the originally mottled sunlight, and the entire forest world was shrouded in a thick gray curtain.

The raindrops made a rapid and powerful sound, and with irresistible force, they penetrated the layers of green leaves, and finally gathered into trickles, spreading rapidly along the tree trunks, roots, and every inch of permeable land.

Kano's soulless body was completely soaked in the rain and turned into a corpse.

Rune Power...

"Death Retrospection"!
activation!
The raindrops fell on his tightly closed eyelids and slid down his cheeks.

As the rain gradually subsided, a ray of warm sunlight once again penetrated the clouds and shone on Kano's face.

His eyelids trembled slowly, and then suddenly opened!
"Cough cough cough..."

Although the pain in his soul was unbearable, deep in his heart he felt a kind of joy at escaping death. The body he had just lost seemed to have become a stranger, so he struggled to get up and stood alone in the middle of the wet woods.

Kano, who had come back from the dead, looked up to taste the rain, took a deep breath, and suddenly couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

The powerful son of the sun god, Prime Minister William, and the weird "wisdom" were all pursuing their goals, but instead they fell into a deep desperate situation. He had been trying to find a way to escape, but in the end all his efforts failed. However, after failing again and again, he managed to survive and successfully escape from the predicament.

He could clearly feel that the "wisdom" was a very powerful character, one of the masterminds behind the scenes in the world, and he probably had many arrangements, plans, and conspiracies. However, because he accidentally died here today, those things were useless and could not be used at all. They could not play any great role in the future and became meaningless.

The spirituality was boiling.

"So-called destiny is so unpredictable. Those who embark on the path of enlightenment must understand this and never think of fully controlling their own destiny."
