449 The Encounter (2/2)
Even so, he was still frowning.
He knew that although the array was not built for destructive purposes, it did not mean that it was entirely safe. In fact, Fang Yuan had already hinted to him about the usage of the array.
”The transference is almost complete. The wild animals out there should not be able to infiltrate the city...”
Xi Menjian mumbled to himself.
The plan which took ten years centred around the usage of these huge cities as bases. Now that the plan was in progress, it was almost impossible for the country to undergo any changes in the plan.
”Do you think we can only hope for them to be friendly towards us? Hehe... this is an irony!”
Xi Menjian laughed.
”We actually do have a plan!”
Fang Yuan smiled and revealed a mysterious look.
...
On the East Continent, in a church.
”This feeling...”
Sitting on a golden chair, Farquhar gazed towards the direction of the Middle Continent. ”The will of the Spiritual Realm... is it here again?”
He walked out of the hall and gazed downwards.
Buildings were built around the Holy Mountain. It resembled a refugee camp as it was filled with people. Everything was chaotic.
All these people were loyal believers who lived under the Holy Mountain to receive blessings. They came from every part of the East Continent.
At the arrival of doomsday, even cults would be able to survive, what more for a Curia with a real god leading it?
Not just that, the disease which the 9 Headed Cerberus had spread throughout the continent had pushed many to lean towards the Curia as they seek for a cure.
At this point in time, governments were failing and the Curia had become the most powerful organisation of the East Continent. Even the Blue Star Alliance would have to rank second now.
”Mortals... Life is fleeting. In times of danger, people would not dare to hold on to positions of power and authority and would rather become cowards...”
Witnessing this scene, Farquhar was not too happy.
Among the many powerful beings, he was also on the side of humans for he had many human believers. However, all these were useless.
The reason for his existence was to increase the spiritual energy of Planet Earth.
Without the existence of spiritual droplets, his faith would not be able to gather so many followers, which would translate to his godly powers.
Therefore, even Farquhar ad to be supportive of Operation Grabstar to lead both worlds into an overlap.
Of course, to the new powerful beings, Farquhar would not tell them the truth. He would only mention the Spiritual King Comet but would say nothing about the existence of the Spiritual Realm.
”This is a sign of the Spiritual King Comet! It is also a new beginning!”
”At the arrival of the fourth occurrence, where the Spiritual King Comet is the closest to Planet Earth, we can activate the array to commence the operation... This is only the first step. This is akin to aiming our harpoon at a whale in order to catch it. Next up, we will have to make use of the huge amount of energy which would arise from the occurrence of the Spiritual King Comet to break through the membrane in order to allow the Spiritual Realm to merge with Planet Earth... This is the true Operation Grabstar, the true aim of the Hidden Cultivators Sect!”
Farquhar continued to mumble to himself. ”After merging the two realms, Planet Earth will retain its current condition and the spiritual energy in here will never go down. We can make use of this accomplishment to gain recognition in order for the new realm to accept us!”
To Gods, recognition was power! Recognition was authority!
This was the reward the Spiritual Realm could give.
The will of the Spiritual Realm was different compared to that of Planet Earth's. It was much more flexible. If it were to recognise a powerful being, the being would become a god, the ultimate achievement rumoured in the legends from the East!
”Now... the will of the Spiritual Realm is about to arrive at the Middle Continent!”
Farquhar could feel that time was rushing.
Behind him, 3 bright wings were radiating as they started to absorb holy light around him.
Furthermore, the fourth pair of wings was illusionary and was about to form.
3 pairs of wings meant that a god would have a 4th Tier special ability.
4 pairs of wings meant that a powerful god would have the ability of a 5th Tier mutant!
In the East, this would be considered the Divine Refining Realm. A person of such power would be able to create a prosperous land, and the collective way to address such a person would be an Area Being!
”In crucial moments, the will of the Spiritual Realm would always appear to bring together the powerful beings of this realm... even the natives of this world, werewolves or even the 9 Headed Cerberus have once benefited from the powerful will of the Spiritual Realm. I wonder who is going to become stronger this time in the Middle Realm?”
Farquhar was lost in his thoughts. Behind him, the illusionary pair of wings started to absorb the power of the faith. However, it still dissipated in the end. It was evident that Farquhar had yet to restore his full might.
Even so, he was still undoubtedly the most powerful being on Holy Mountain and the leader of all.
”I wonder who is here?”
The holy light illuminated the entire mountain. Farquhar felt a slight sense of fear as he detected the presence of another Area Being.
”You can call me... Extreme Darkness!”
The space around the holy mountain started to distort and a young and beautiful girl emerged and arrived before Farquhar. The pair of white and black wings behind her and her captivating beauty caused Farquhar to be in a trance.
In the next moment, Extreme Darkness spoke in a sweet voice. ”I have brought my goodwill intentions as well as the friendship I have with the vampires and werewolves... Furthermore, I have a secret about this realm!”
