Chapter 260 The So-Called Theft of Heavenly Secrets
"When the 'spirit' wanders across the earth, humanity will inevitably go through a process from fear to familiarity."
"Although these spirits are relatively weak, they are not entirely harmless. For their own safety, ordinary people need to learn to distinguish the types and habits of various spirits, which forces them to learn some esoteric knowledge, either actively or passively. The door to the extraordinary will also open for them."
The White Emperor's words were simple and easy to understand, and combined with the recent developments in several western provinces, the two angels naturally understood their meaning.
This emperor wanted to promote mysticism, but knowledge is not something that can be promoted just like that. This is undoubtedly much more difficult than spreading faith. So the White Emperor directly opened the portal between the spirit world and the mortal world, allowing ordinary people, even in remote rural areas, to see spirits under certain conditions.
Although ordinary people do not have clairvoyance, they are influenced by the red light in the sky and will see it at certain times. Fear may breed faith, and they will instinctively pray, and the "hermit" will indeed respond to their prayers.
"The mystical societies flourished in the Fourth Age, and nature spirits and vengeful spirits were able to develop different functions."
"Even ordinary people, why can't they rely on their own spirituality, use some collected spiritual materials, to set up a mysterious ritual, and cast spells through the red light in the sky?"
When the spiritual realm and the physical world open up, the spiritual materials in the real world will inevitably increase. This will further drive the development of mysticism. Several provinces in the western part of the entire Northern Continent will create more knowledge and faith for hermits. They will also promote the progress of civilization. "After the spiritual materials in the real world increase, we will be able to better combine traditional technology with spirituality and achieve some breakthroughs. Perhaps the changes will be limited for the high sequence, but it will be enough to change the lifestyles of the middle and lower extraordinary people and ordinary people."
"Red Light" also nodded in agreement. Of course, it was clear that with the resources on Earth, achieving a true leap in civilization was unrealistic. However, the existence of mysticism and spirituality gave them the opportunity to take a shortcut. What are spiritual materials?
Are materials attached to by a natural spirit before it dissipates considered spiritual materials?
With more and more spirits in the real world, many spiritual materials will inevitably be born for various reasons.
Through enchanting, rituals, prayers, and other means, combined with some relatively easy-to-research scientific technologies, even "spaceships" can be mass-produced, although in principle they may be closer to the infamous "ghost ships" of the Fifth Age.
"We will build the power train, and we will also build the teleportation array."
Although this would make the differences between the different classes even more obvious, this is the Fourth Era. Disrespecting those in high positions will result in being dragged out for a blood sacrifice. The difference in status is already noticeable enough.
"Red Light" nodded in understanding. Even though doing so would essentially treat those weak spirits as expendable resources, Seven Lights clearly didn't care much. This was because ordinary humans were the same, and those ignorant spirits often lacked any understanding. Although Seven Lights was gentle, he was equally indifferent.
"Full Moon" Olmer was thinking about something else entirely. He had initially thought Backlund was a good place, but now it seemed that following the White Emperor in Trier was more promising. Moreover, this environment was closer to the environment of the early Second Era, and the vampire duke felt a sense of nostalgia and comfort.
"Then let's get ready. By the way, I don't want to see people in my country who don't even know how to read numbers."
Xia'er is now starting to understand something. Although hermits value secrecy, knowledge is not necessarily better the more secretive it is. The more widely circulated the occult knowledge, the deeper the imprint left by the legends and superficial concepts, the more the core mysteries remain unknown. Such occult knowledge often possesses the greatest power.
Knowledge should be disseminated, but the most fundamental secrets are what deserve to be kept hidden.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After bowing, "Red Light" El and "Full Moon" Olmer went about their own business.
The White Emperor only needs to supervise and issue orders; he doesn't need to do anything actual.
Chael walked back to the palace and sat on the throne, feeling his power slowly increasing.
This is the power of order, a crown bestowed by the Black Emperor, a level 0 sealed artifact.
The Solomon Empire was ultimately a kingdom ruled by a dark emperor, and the power of order objectively exists.
As an important component of this order system, the White Emperor can certainly "experience" this power as long as he has the means. The simplest way is to use the "crown" as a medium, or he can "take it" directly. This is not considered stealing.
As more and more spirits cross the barriers of the spirit world, sign agreements with the "Great Rainbow Bridge," and descend into the real world, these spirits, in a sense, are also subjects of the White Emperor and are truly intending to move closer to the "Lord of All Spirits," which is, after all, a prerequisite for becoming the Lord of the Spirit World.
As the connection between this land and the spirit world deepens, the Black Emperor will likely be able to sense this strengthening. After all, this empire is called the Solomon Empire, and the Black Emperor, who is adept at exploiting loopholes, may even be able to find a way to spread a portion of the order to the spirit world.
But Xia Er didn't care; he had his own things to do.
The symbol of the Lord of the Spirit Realm does not exist.
To make this symbol real, one cannot bypass the Open Source Fortress and the Celestial Venerable.
In addition to preparations in the spirit world, these preparations also extend to the real world.
The most crucial step is still the Lord of Mysteries.
"The complete version of the Wrong Path, Sequence 5 has an extraordinary ability called theft of secrets, which allows one to bypass defenses and steal responses by disguising oneself as a follower of other gods, creating various types of talismans, or obtaining certain blessings."
"However, the methods used are somewhat crude..."
Since the consciousness of the Celestial Venerable is still relatively active in the Fourth Era, then by using the extraordinary characteristics of a erroneous Sequence 1, one can slowly, little by little, steal the authority and symbols belonging to the Celestial Venerable, even if one can only steal a little bit of the "Spirit Realm Ruler", like a little bit of "Gray Mist" to the "Source Castle".
The "Lord of the Spirit Realm," a symbol that does not yet exist, may have become real because it is false.
The emperor sat on his throne, his eyes closed. Even though he was rational enough, there was not much in this world that could move him, but he still felt a faint excitement.
This is not impossible. To some extent, isn't the existence of the extraordinary individuals of the Three Schools of Ghosts a form of stealing the power of the Celestial Venerable?
If something is unclaimed, you can always find a way to borrow a little bit of it.
Whether it was theft, deception, or a gift...:
After the phoenix opened up the underworld through its spirit form, almost every god of death throughout history has been the ruler of the underworld.
Then why can't the hermit become the master of the spirit realm of the North and South Continents and the five great oceans?
"Reality needs mystery, and the spirit world needs order."
The White Emperor murmured to himself, in the vast hall, apart from a beautiful magic mirror, nothing else was fortunate enough to hear him.
