"But she travels with the Destruction Wind through the Moon of Emptiness, until above all attachments, where no worldly bonds hinder her flight, and no shadows obscure the path."
Four-winged Technique Spirit Wind Formation, Four-winged Technique Spirit Moon Sky, Four-winged Technique Spirit Attachment, Four-winged Technique Spirit Wind Dust, Four-winged Technique Spirit Shadow...
Ash follows the guidance of the mythological poems, step by step completing the Divine Fragment.
Not all Divine Fragments have corresponding poems; if the Nightmare Angel didn't leave them, then there are none.
The Nightmare Angel left one hundred and thirty-three mythological poems, exactly corresponding to 133 Divine Fragments.
It's worth mentioning that the Nightmare pays great attention to these mythological poems. It wasn't until Ash and the others pushed the completion of the Virtual Godhood to 70% that it revealed the poems to them, evidently the most core secret of the Nightmare inheritance.
In fact, these mythological poems live up to the Nightmare's importance. Ash initially estimated that the last 30% would take them at least 16 hours of frantic overtime, but with the guidance of the poems, their speed increased dramatically. Not only did Weiser succeed in gathering spirit every time, but even Ash, Sonia, and Diya, even if they failed in gathering spirit, wouldn't suffer soul backlash, and the remaining time could be compressed to within 6 hours.
The poems have no obvious sequence, only roughly analyzing that each poem praises and extols the authority of a Divine Being. Clearly, the protagonists of these poems are the yet-to-be-born Nightmare God Spirits.
Why can the poems left by the Nightmare Angel aid in gathering the Divine Fragments? More importantly, why are there only one hundred and thirty-three?
Each time Ash and the others thought they understood the flow of the Virtual Godhood, the Nightmare teacher always introduced them to new points of knowledge. Although they hated the Nightmare, grinding their teeth, and didn't dare to curse it aloud, they had to admit that participating in God Creation this time greatly broadened their horizons.
Not to mention the Holy Domain Mages, most Legendary Mages might not have such an encounter.
They only analyzed that the Nightmare Angel did not avoid creating a complete myth but was only able to create these one hundred and thirty-three pieces. If a complete myth covering all Divine Fragments truly existed, any ordinary mage could probably complete the Virtual Godhood just by following the myth, without requiring the participation of a Truth Mage.
However, creating these mythological poems would likely only be possible for a mage stepping into the Divine Domain. But for a demigod, even without the poems, they could forcefully gather Divine Fragments, and thus the myth is not necessary.
As he pondered, Ash condensed another Divine Fragment.
He waved gently, and the Divine Fragment floated toward the massive crystal at the center of the hall, becoming a seamless part of it.
The completion of the Virtual Godhood reached 85%, and its outline was sketched out: a disastrous land filled with flames, thorns, dark clouds, swamps, and bones.
Ash initially thought the Godhood was the core soul of a Divine Being, but it seems now that at least the Virtual Godhood shapes the external scene of a Divine Being—like the background board in an illustration.
Boom!
Suddenly, a strong tremor entered the hall, causing Weiser, Sonia, and Diya to be jolted, spiritual lights bursting before their eyes, evidently because external influences led to a failed gathering spirit, causing a bit of soul backlash.
They lifted their heads and could see the battle of the Dream Heaven through the glass ceiling.
The Ghost Will and the Holy Domain Mage's magic chaotically battled, constantly undermining the foundations of Dream Heaven, causing the dazzling radiant light that always enshrouded the golden hall to dissipate rapidly.
Clearly, the moment that dazzling light completely disappears is when the golden hall will be exposed to the world!
By then, even if the Ghost Will is God Hated and Ghost Despised, it cannot attract any attention for Ash and the others—the unsuccessful revival of a fallen demigod, how could it compare to a Godhood soon to be born?
Once Ash and the others are discovered, whether by the Holy Domain Mages here or the Divine Lords above, they will inevitably find every way possible to besiege and divide their achievements!
Forget the Divine Being itself, Ash and the others who succeed in creating the Virtual Godhood are already immense wealth. Obtaining the complete technique of the Virtual Godhood from their minds is equivalent to obtaining the achievements of the Nightmare Angel's half-life!
Ash and the others only now realize the gravity, but they are already too deeply trapped to escape.
The Nightmare inheritance and the Virtual Godhood are undoubtedly their greatest fortunes to date, but they have no ability to safeguard this wealth. Once the golden hall is exposed, what awaits them is infinite greed and malice from the outside world.
They might not even be able to escape, as in most cases, mages in the Void Realm only have their soul severely damaged if they die, but outside are two thousand Holy Domains from different nations and factions!
Not to mention completely destroying the soul, even if someone among them can forcibly enslave and dominate same-level Holy Domains, Ash wouldn't be surprised.
From the moment they were pulled into the golden hall by the Nightmare, they had no retreat.
If they didn't participate in God Creation, they would become materials for the Nightmare;
Participating in God Creation, they would become the treasures envied by the Holy Domain Mages!
The only solution now is the successful creation of a Divine Being, to weather the malice of external storms and embrace the rainbow after the storm!
Therefore, even though Sonia, Diya, and Weiser were injured, they didn't rest but quickly threw themselves into the work of gathering the Divine Fragments. Careful calculation revealed that they had already been in the Void Realm for more than a day and night, always under the crazy exertion by the Nightmare boss, yet occasionally exchanging glances, their eyes were filled with hopeful light, rather than any gloom.
...
...
"Melee Group Three, disperse; remote group, attack!"
"He is about to cast mass Soul Scream, those who are marked, don't move; I have marked you with red light, others stay away from the red light!"
"Melee Group Two, step up and stop him from charging forward, Groups One, Four, Five, and Six follow the plan to restrict his movement! Curse Group, cast!"
"Explosive Fire Group, prepare!"
"Frost Cold Group, prepare!"
Countless mind transmissions echoed throughout Dream Heaven, with Igula and thirty-three other Spiritual Sanctuaries forming a temporary command center, jointly responsible for the group combat of two thousand Holy Domains!
A few hours ago, Dazzling Star Magic Master officially intervened, using the Star Cluster Concept to deploy the Starry Sky Miracle, protecting all Holy Domains within Dream Heaven.
During the duration of the Starry Sky Miracle, the soul energy of all Holy Domains would be continuously replenished, injuries would quickly heal, and the speed of magic power recovery would greatly increase—essentially, they were nearly in a Blood Lock and Blue Lock state.
Yet even with such a massive advantage, facing the Ghost Will with full firepower, dozens of Holy Domains fell within minutes! Due to the complete blockade of Dream Heaven, their fall meant total death, as their souls were instantly refined by the Ghost Will, becoming part of his Soul Army!
These Holy Sanctuary Mages were all influential and powerful figures in reality, yet they died so easily, so simply, it was as if they were ants scalded to death by boiling water!
The Holy Domains weren't fools; faced with the fate of the rabbit mourning for the fox, even if they were strangers in conflict of interest the previous second, the next second they had to become intimate comrades working together!
No conflict is greater than the conflict of life and death!
Soon, a Spiritual Sanctuary unleashed the 'Mind Link' Miracle, connecting all Holy Domains into a single mental channel. This miracle was quite peculiar, as it would automatically consume the magic power of the recipients, allowing the linkage of up to two thousand people.
But organizing two thousand people into a mage army wasn't a task one person could manage, so other Spiritual Sanctuaries immediately joined the command operation system, including Igula.
They formed the Curse Group, remote group, and melee group based on Blood Moon Holy Domain, Curse Elf, and Parasitic Mage respectively. After several intensive battles where hundreds more Holy Domains fell, they finally barely managed to tighten two thousand Holy Domains into a team capable of contending with Ghost Will.
Of course, there were Holy Domains unwilling to accept commands, especially those in the melee group required to intimately engage with the Ghost Will; many were frightened by the Ghost Will and dared not face him directly. But the thirty-four commanders weren't easy-going; they constantly monitored the overall contribution of the team members, and if someone neither supported nor assisted, they would be marked with vivid colors by the Spiritual Sanctuary.
This mark served to remind the Ghost Will: you can kill this person at will, we won't care.
Although some were definitely discontented with Spiritual Sanctuaries in safe areas dictating the life and death of others, the Curse Elf, Blood Moon Holy Domain, Parasitic Mage all supported the command center, and most Holy Domains were willing to carry out orders!
They all realized that if they didn't unite, even with the continuous aid of the Starry Sky Miracle, they would still be slain by the Ghost Will!
Holy Sanctuary Mages weren't fools; they didn't lack courage!
They had just been arbitrarily 'inspected and assessed' by the Ghost Will, some were frightened to despair, but more felt humiliation and anger!
Ghost Will suddenly descended, his Soul Army having fully retracted into his soul, his body covered in a thin black veil that constantly undulated like countless souls wailing for help within.
Three hundred melee Holy Domains followed right behind him, blocking all his routes like a swarm!
"It's about time..."
Suddenly, Ghost Will crashed into a black sphere, instantly shattering it.
The sphere shattered, its rewards immediately scattered and flew away. The pursuing mages were momentarily stunned, instinctively reaching out to divide these rewards. However, Igula and other Spiritual Sanctuaries immediately noticed that the Ghost Will was also scrambling for Technique Spirits!
"The ghost is reclaiming his old Technique Spirits! Stop him now!"
From the beginning until now, Ghost Will had only been fighting with his Soul Army, the Technique Spirits involved were merely the few kept in the Ghost Main Transmission. It's not that he couldn't use more Technique Spirits, but driving Technique Spirits consumed mental resources, and mental resources would deplete the will, so with only a bundle of will left, he had to 'carefully select'.
Although he hadn't fully revived, he had obtained a soul body. As a spirit demigod, he likely had ways to consume souls to replenish his will, meaning he could now reclaim most of his Technique Spirits from when he was alive, bringing the eerie terror of the Ghost Prophet back to the world!
Now, he was no longer just the flickering Ghost Will but a Ghost Prophet who could persist in the world!
"Though it's too extravagant to use Source Crystals for casting... there's no choice now."
Faced with the pursuing Holy Sanctuary Mages, Ghost Prophet suddenly turned and waved, spraying a cloud of colorful purple mist behind him. Even with Holy Domain protection, many mages quickly fell asleep, disarmed before the Ghost Prophet!
Wonder: Soul Enchantment!
With the support of Dream Heaven, the power of this miracle rose to the wonder level. Plus, it already contaminated mages' souls along the line of sight, rendering the Holy Domains practically nonexistent!
Yet as Ghost Prophet charged back to harvest them, starlight appeared on the Holy Sanctuary Mages, immediately breaking them free from their dream state.
"Dazzling Star!"
Ghost Prophet snorted coldly, quickly retreating to avoid the Holy Domains' counterattack. He looked up at the false starry sky of Dream Heaven, secretly casting a prophecy miracle, rapidly consuming the will within his soul!
Soon, he discerned the secret of the Starry Sky Miracle, his expression turning chilly.
"Unless these Holy Sanctuary Mages are all dead, the Starry Sky lockdown won't be lifted..." Ghost Prophet murmured, "So this is meant to exhaust my Source Crystal reserves?"
