Chapter 978: Chapter 455: The Characteristics of “Ashes
The layer where the Art Building is located resembles a polar night environnt like the North and South Poles, with endless darkness enveloping the whole world. In the black sky, there hangs a black sun.
You can barely discern the appearance of that sun; only a faint golden edge remains, outlining its shape.
He rembered that there seed to be a painting in the Room of the Contractor…
An endless coastline, black tides, an ancient and eerie castle, the grey mist erging from the depths of the ocean, thick clouds, and… a sun with a golden outline.
The “sun” seems to have a profoundly indicative significance within the layer of the Art Building.
Yet, Convenience Store Owner -003 did not elaborate on the topic of the “sun” or ashes and instead continued, “The ashes have perated here; its inherent supernatural traits have been almost obliterated. But even this sliver that remains poses a devastating threat to living beings.”
Lin Yi opened his mouth, astonished that even a little afterglow could have such a terrifying effect. How terrifying must the position of the “sun” itself be?
“However…” Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “ashes themselves are not destructive. The destructiveness to organisms is rely due to their inability to withstand its position, leading to collapse and self-immolation. Any unit that gets contaminated by ashes but fails to elevate its position to that of ashes within a limited ti will be consud by them.”
“Such is the nature of power.”
“Not just ‘ashes,’ even the simplest blue-green breath is like this.”
“If you can endure and adapt, you can beco a Sports Student or Art Student; if not, you beco a Pseudo-Human, a Sculpture, or a Nocturnal species.”
“Ultimately, it’s because the position of the ashes is so high that ordinary living beings simply cannot touch it.”
“Therefore, whether it’s carrying or controlling, it’s actually nothing but the illusion of the ignorant who do not know the whole picture.”
“Ashes themselves are not frightening; what’s frightening is how to adapt, grasp them, and finally… transcend them.”
“‘Transcend them’?” Lin Yi was incredibly shocked, “If one transcends the ashes… what would that an?”
Convenience Store Owner -003’s gaze fell on the “Burial Body,” where a faint golden light was floating within: “If you liken the state of the Ashen Apostle to taking a civil service exam, then making it ashore ans stepping into the Supre Judgnt path.”
“Does this path truly exist?!” Lin Yi exclaid in shock. If it does, then the information used to deceive Big Head Yuan and Mu Daxian in “God’s Domain” might be real?
“It does exist, it’s just that very few people know of it,” Convenience Store Owner -003 said. “You don’t have to think too much; in the entire campus, only a few Night Watchn, , and that jerk ‘Principal’ know, and there’s no saying passed on about it.”
“The Supre Judgnt path, you only realize its nature when you undertake it; words cannot docunt this path.”
“Once recorded, the record itself becos a powerful contamination, like a virus. Once it spreads, hardly anyone can endure it.”
Lin Yi pressed his lips together and instinctively touched the mo in his pocket.
He could fully understand Convenience Store Owner -003’s words, feeling that his mo was entirely appropriate for this rule.
“So, ‘going up’ as an Ashen Apostle ans the ‘Supre Judgnt’; were all of you once Ashen Apostles?” Lin Yi asked.
Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “You could understand it that way.”
“No wonder you can expel that ‘Ashen Apostle’…” Lin Yi realized with a sudden understanding. Convenience Store Owner -003’s position is higher than that guy’s, so naturally, they could expel them.
However, Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “But that ‘Ashen Apostle’ is an exception.”
“Ah? What do you an by that?” Lin Yi didn’t understand.
“It is the projection of the ‘Ashen Apostle’ path within the campus,” Convenience Store Owner -003 said. “Just like a three-dinsional sphere which becos a circle in two dinsions, the organization utilizing Big Head Yuan and Mu Daxian conducted a ceremony that tore a hole in the campus, projecting the ‘Ashen Apostle’ path from a strange dinsion here.”
“The ‘Ashen Apostle’ ford by that projection can be called the ‘Primordial Ash Apostle.’
“Like a Vampire’s lineage, it can suppress all other ‘Ashen Apostles’ — apart from combat power, the positional suppression is absolute.”
“Positional suppression…” Lin Yi mused, “So if you encounter it, you can only run?”
“You can only run,” Convenience Store Owner -003 didn’t deny, “Or, you can pull out sothing from the ‘Supre Judgnt’ level to counter it.”
“Like the golden aura?” Lin Yi inquired.
Facing right through Lin Yi’s thoughts, Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “The golden aura would work, but the premise is that you are proficient in using it. If you drop the ball at a critical mont, even an Immortal can’t save you.”
Lin Yi now understood why his Bone Golden Body was unafraid of being burnt by ashes; the thing tempered by this golden aura has unquestionably formidable position.
“Then if I get a little rash and indeed encounter an inescapable confrontation, I might as well discard the flesh and directly clutch my skeleton to fight it,” Lin Yi thought, realizing unexpectedly that he himself was like Brooke.
Yet Brooke might not even be as abnormal as Lin Yi, for this fellow actually thought of taking the bone of his left arm with his right hand to use as a weapon…
