389 Back-up Plan (1/2)
If Heaven on Earth could fight back, and he could use all twenty-four Chapters of Golden Victory, Ye Qingxuan would not be so powerless. But he just could not do anything!
This was the scepter left behind by King Arthur! Combining all twenty-four Chapters, aided by Avalon's enchantment, the Heaven on Earth from the golden age was created. When activated, the entirety of Anglo was needed to activate Avalon's enchantment and supply energy for Heaven on Earth. The Royal Musician Division was needed to help with the music theory changes.
This was undoubtedly a supersized war machine.
He did not have a higher level of resonance, the strength to move the aether sea or any other aid… As a mere official musician, it was already a miracle for Ye Qingxuan to cast a miniature Heaven on Earth with help from Avalon's enchantment's music theory. But it was okay. He could resonate now!
Despair flashed past his eyes and he tossed Heaven on Earth to the side. Moonlight threads extended from Jiu Xiao Huan Pei to the Sword. Coherence began! As if riding a wild wind onto the instrument, his mind broke through the shackles of reality and rushed into the aether world.
This time, he used the Sword's power to find the source.
He instantly jumped past the once-long path and forged along his musician road deep into the aether world. He moved past the strong temptation of Avalon's Shadow, brushed past the attraction of the abyss, left the radiance of the holy city, avoided the wall of the East, and moved in deeper.
He moved toward the scepter that the Ye family had left behind in the aether world. In a moment, the silent world was before his eyes. Ye Qingxuan was alone with a light amongst the countless tombstones.
”You're here!” Laughing, he urged the Sword and rushed into it. With the Sword's help, he already sensed that this was the source he needed to anchor in!
A whimsical dot swam in the nine levels of the aether sea created by countless music theories. To describe it, it was not a solid object but a gap… It was a gap that kept moving, created by the changing music theories.
It was just like how a tiny gap would appear as the countless gears of a complex machine spun; there was always a small dim spot as the stars turned… It was part of the whole yet also separate from the whole.
The Ye family's scepter relied on that spot. Generations of Ye musicians had put in everything to create this hereditary scepter and captured that source. It was like a giant star pulling a meteorite to become its satellite.
After that, the source dot began to revolve around the scepter and exchange radiance with it. It was only complete if both were combined. Without either part, it could not be whole.
The moment Ye Qingxuan found the spot, he heard Paganini's furious huff.
Under the Garment of Original Sin, how could Paganini not sense what Ye Qingxuan was doing? When he used his music theory's fragmented feedback to discover the kid neglected Heaven on Earth to forcefully enter resonance, he burst into anger.
In a duel, a desperate attempt at a breakthrough was hope for the weaker side. But to the enemy, it was pure humiliation!
