Chapter 1187: Chapter 1185: Advanced Animals (End)
"Yes, I am a tainted existence."
Fu Qian’s remarks could be called rather impolite, but Henry, who spoke in a low voice, seemed not to mind in the slightest, even agreeing with his statement.
"Do you still remember what I told you about the Prism of Radiant Transformation?"
The next moment, he looked at Yuan Shan.
"Knowing too much about certain things is not always good."
Yuan Shan evidently remembered this well and answered seriously.
"That’s right, for some Superior Beings, the mere name carries the nature of contamination, which is why I instructed you to be alert to any mention of this title."
Henry nodded and then turned to Fu Qian.
"The Prism of Radiant Transformation is an Ancient Deity originating from the Mythic Era, and what’s most unique is that She still exists now."
This statement contained quite a bit of information.
One of the goals of this trip was finally beginning to be achieved, Fu Qian praised inwardly.
Although he already knew the content mentioned by Old Master Henry, the implications behind it were significant.
It was evident that the Night Watchman had a considerable grasp of some ancient secrets and were involved with them, or perhaps guarding against them?
"In terms of Ranking, She is even far above what is typically meant by First Phase, and even possesses certain powers similar to the Sun."
"But She is not the Sun?"
Fu Qian pondered thoughtfully; in his interactions with the Prism of Radiant Transformation, the other party did indeed demonstrate authority related to color and stars.
It was reasonable to mention a connection to the Sun.
"No, the ancient Sun God has already perished, and currently there is no sign of any existence."
Old Master Henry, who had considered his words carefully, was quite forthcoming with information, casually revealing secrets not found outside.
"And from the information we have, during the Mythic Era, the Prism of Radiant Transformation once had considerable followers, usually appearing in the form of a beautiful woman. Part of Her powers overlapped with the Sun God, but of course, all of this ended on that night."
"All of Them lost Their voices, but the Prism of Radiant Transformation did not fall; instead, She completely concealed Herself behind the scenes."
"And with the efforts of the Night Watchman, this title, like many other revered names, has been completely erased from public consciousness."
So it was indeed your doing.
The word "efforts" reminded Fu Qian naturally of the opera he had seen in Dunis.
His speculation at that time was indeed correct.
The chaotic intertwining of myths, was it intentionally guided?
Was it to remove the foundation of faith for the many Ancient Divine Beings?
Discussing this issue in the church of the Night Holy City truly had a unique charm.
As for the pitiable Hamadus, could it be because of weakness that He escaped calamity?
After all, He did have the status of a War God Servant.
"Why are you so certain She did not fall?"
From Yuan Shan’s expression, it was clear she was hearing this for the first time; obviously, her teacher had followed the principle that knowledge is a Curse and had not told her too much.
"I’ve said before, I am contaminated by Her."
Henry said indifferently.
...
"This is why I’m one of the few people in this world who knows this name."
In Chief Yuan’s silence, Henry didn’t forget to add a word of comfort.
"But you don’t need to worry too much; just a revered name at most makes Her notice you. Contamination requires a more special method, the details of which I won’t reveal."
Actually, there’s no need to reveal it; I can roughly guess.
The listening Fu Qian shook his head internally.
Covenant.
The concepts related to an Ancient Superior Being encountered so far were mainly two: faith and Covenant.
And if the cat I met back then wasn’t coincidentally named, it’s hard to imagine that the one before me is just a follower of the Prism of Radiant Transformation.
Especially since Henry himself mentioned "a special method" leading to contamination.
It’s likely that he entered into a Covenant with the Prism of Radiant Transformation in some particular way.
And combining the experiences of the Dragon Summit Inn’s landlady, his essence was thus distorted, which is also the essence of pollution.
"I understand now, what Midas fears is the Prism of Radiant Transformation behind the pollution, so you will never be a reader of his story!"
The teacher’s candor clearly weighed heavily on Yuan Shan’s mood, but she still spiritedly summarized the original intention of this topic.
"That’s why you sent Fang Xun to find this particular being; as long as he can do it, he won’t be a similar polluter."
"Right."
Henry admitted to her point, looking relieved.
"It seems that this person is just an unlucky one who knows a bit too much."
We probably know even more than you can imagine.
Fu Qian sighed, knowing it was time to show his sincerity.
"Regarding pollution, I indeed know a few things."
"Some Superior Beings that still possess power can cause irreversible distortions to Transcendents they come into contact with, distortions that involve the very form of their essential existence."
Fu Qian deliberately emphasized the "irreversible."
This was indeed a question he was curious about.
The ordeal of the last rash person, he had seen with his own eyes.
Henry’s attitude towards the Prism of Radiant Transformation, to say it was an all-around enhanced version of a rash person, yet he still lives well?
He even reached the level of Divine Envoy, how did he manage to extricate himself?
"In any case, it is because of this awareness that I was able to guess your possible intent just now."
"You do know a lot."
There was a touch of emotion in Henry’s response to some aspects of Fu Qian’s words.
"That’s right. The reason pollution is called pollution is because once you step wrong, there is almost no chance of redemption, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do, like... opposing pollution with pollution."
Double-named servant? So that’s how it is!
Considering his ample knowledge reserve, with just a little hint from Henry, Fu Qian instantly grasped the concept.
This guy couldn’t have managed to establish other oaths, could he?
Following the previous building analogy, this is equivalent to being the main pillar for one household and the beam for another; let them fight it out themselves.
Brilliant!
Let’s not talk about the difficulty of the operation; it indeed is an idea.
"Believe me, it doesn’t feel as good as you think."
Henry seemed to know what Fu Qian was thinking and snorted coldly.
"You can see that your Demigod status is already quite stable, I would suggest under any circumstances, not to consider this path."
"As for your lantern, I won’t pressure you through the Night Watchman to hand it over, but it’s best if you never knock on it again either."
"Thanks for the reminder!"
Fu Qian nodded.
Although he might not necessarily heed Old Master’s warning, it was clear that it was still well-intentioned.
Of course, as soon as he said this, it indicated that the crisis caused by one problem was thoroughly overcome.
"So he’s alright now?"
Yuan Shan also actively helped to confirm at this time.
"As long as he doesn’t talk recklessly, there won’t be any issues; it’s best not to even think about it."
Henry nodded slightly.
"Otherwise, the Prism of Radiant Transformation might decide to seek you out personally through this awareness, and the same goes for you, by the way..."
After advising Yuan Shan, in the next moment, Henry seemed to recall something, his expression somewhat sheepish.
"In the end, I really do think so."
"It’s okay."
Fu Qian looked unsurprised.
"From the look that Ross gives you, I can tell what your luck is like."
