[Welcome to our new Grade 1 Sealed Artifact, Sealed Artifact 1-02: Warlord.]
Hobert "carried" his office back to Angel City's palace.
Only after returning did He realize that not only had his office bizarrely left its original location, but the entire palace seemed to have been dissected by some force and scattered throughout the country.
Hobert retrieved them one by one and re-"assembled" them like building blocks.
The palace staff were somewhat frightened, and Hobert roughly explained what had happened to the two Empresses, asking Audrey to provide "psychological counseling" to the staff.
Starting about two years ago, after signing a confidentiality agreement, the palace staff were no longer kept in the dark about the extraordinary events that occasionally occurred in the palace.
Otherwise, if they were constantly hypnotized, their spirits and spiritual bodies would be under considerable pressure, and they might inexplicably turn into madmen after reaching their limit.
So, they simply stopped concealing things, but these messages could not be taken out of the palace.
Hobert had the two Empresses preside over the palace situation, and then he used his "distortion" ability to come to the mausoleum.
At this time, the Creator had just returned from the "Forsaken Land of the Gods." He threw a small piece of crystal to Hobert and said, "I have some ideas and would like to get your opinion."
Hobert caught it, and he saw that what he held was a polygonal crystal with some starlight, but inside this crystal was an eyeball with a blue pupil.
He "recalled" that this was one of the dozen or so crystals of the "High-Dimensional Overseer" that the Creator had sucked in with a black hole during the previous battle.
The other crystals shattered when they entered the black hole, but only this one was preserved, and it looked very special.
Hobert considered for a moment and then said, "My thoughts are consistent with yours."
The Creator slowly nodded, and then talked about another matter: "After the 'Nation of Disorder' became complete again, I roughly understood the 'Son of Chaos' symbolisms.
"It mainly lies in 'Transformation,' which can change already formed affairs. This is changing 'backward.'
"And the 'Chaos' ability I just acquired is actually also a kind of 'change,' but it is changing 'forward.'" This symbol is the tendency towards Disorder.
Hobert pondered for a moment and said, "In this case, the 'Genie' didn't tell the truth before.
"The focus of the authority we will devour next should be on 'changing,' and it has little to do with 'creating.'"
The Creator sat on the exquisite seat: "That's a good idea."
Then He added: "Fortunately, we didn't completely believe the 'Genie's' words anyway."
This was a "sage time" unique to the two of them. Many seemingly amazing but not too difficult to achieve plans were discussed in this way.
...
In the northern mountainous region of Atlantis, a team of Beyonders used their "travel" ability to appear here.
Captain Cohen glanced at the surrounding fields. A layer of ice covered the ground, looking like a silver-clad winter scene.
However, it is now summer in this area!
This is very abnormal.
The surrounding villagers have all been evacuated, and before coming here, Cohen and others had already inquired with the village chiefs of several villages around who had been evacuated.
According to them, this "cold wave" suddenly appeared last night.
The villagers were frozen awake one by one, and then they were stunned by the scene before them.
As the temperature got lower and lower, the village chiefs, realizing that this matter was very abnormal, immediately led the villagers to leave and reported the matter.
So, in the early hours of today, an investigation into this extraordinary case had already begun.
It was basically determined that this should be an extraordinary event involving high sequences, so the demigod Cohen was asked to lead a team to conduct further investigation. Several team members were also elites among the official Beyonders, and could request support from angels at any time.
Their main task this time was to find out the source of this "cold wave."
Just by visual inspection, it was obvious that the ice in the mountains was thicker than in the villages at the foot of the mountains.
But this time they were very cautious and did not continue to use "travel," but instead used the method of "distorting" positions to quickly approach.
After climbing to the top of the mountain, the wind was howling and snowflakes were flying, like a heavy snow was about to fall in the deep winter.
On the other side of the mountain was a sparsely populated mountainous area. They climbed over several mountains in a row and seemed to have found the source of all this extraordinary activity.
It was a pool at the foot of the mountain. At this time, the surface of the pool was covered with thick ice. The ice was as smooth as a mirror, and in the mirror surface, there seemed to be black shadows fluttering.
The team members' spirituality sensed danger in advance, and they moved their eyes away, not looking at the lake surface.
After taking a look, Cohen immediately prayed to the angel Beverly.
She is the commander-in-chief of the official Beyonders in several nearby counties.
While Cohen was praying, strands of illusory filaments appeared around them, and before they could react, they were bound!
Immediately afterwards, several balls of black flames flew towards them. Cohen "distorted" the attack trajectory of those flames, narrowly avoiding them.
Then hundreds of thousands of ice arrows shot towards them, and Cohen could only "distort" a part of them.
Just as the ice arrows were about to hit the Beyonder team members, the space in front of them suddenly became "chaotic." A large number of ice arrows seemed to have "lost" their direction and scattered in all directions.
The next second, Beverly, wearing a black jade pendant, stepped out. With a wave of her hand, she immediately rescued Cohen and others from the filaments.
Beverly glanced at the lake surface at the foot of the mountain and said, "This is an opportunity."
She smiled slightly: "Empress Audrey's opportunity!"
Since the underworld faction of the Balam Empire allowed the "City of the Dead" Calderón to appear in the world, she and Audrey gradually developed a good friendship.
At this time, the black shadow in the ice mirror seemed to sense danger, so it wanted to escape, but Beverly "distorted" its thoughts.
While Beverly asked Cohen to lead the team away, she reported the situation here to Hobert through prayer.
A dozen seconds later, Hobert arrived with Audrey.
He glanced at the ice layer at the foot of the mountain and smiled, "I didn't expect the Demoness Sect to make such a contribution."
Hobert had already recognized the black figure. In the beginning, there were three angels in the "Demoness Sect," one normal and two in very poor condition.
The normal angel, Sherry, was killed by Hobert, who was still a King of Angels, in the "Mirror World." There were also two angels in very poor condition.
The characteristics of one of them formed the sealed artifact "0-71" Disaster Porcelain Doll in the South Colson Campaign, but her spirit body and consciousness used Beyonder abilities to escape, and were later completely killed by Hobert after he became the King of Angels.
There was also an angel in very poor condition who escaped by burning her "origin" during the South Colson Campaign and has been missing ever since.
Her condition should have become worse, especially after the "Mirror World" was reconstructed by Hobert. She didn't even have a place to hide for a long time.
The one in front of him is this missing and very poor-condition angel.
The fact that she is appearing in people's sight again can only mean that her condition has deteriorated to the extreme, and she is not far from being completely out of control, so she has almost no idea of hiding, or the reason to hide.
Audrey's angel advancement ceremony is: to find an angel's weakness through observation, and use this weakness to weave a dream, leaving a serious psychological shadow on that angel.
Originally, Hobert planned to find an angel from the Northern Continent to be Audrey's observation object.
He didn't expect that this matter was still being planned, and this angel from the Demoness Sect came to his door, which is why Hobert teased the Demoness Sect so much.
Now, the Witch Research association, a very important extraordinary force in Atlantis, already has two demigods. The Beyonder characteristics of these research association members were all bestowed by the Demoness Sect.
The sect has made a significant contribution to the extraordinary construction of the Atlantis Empire.
While Hobert was teasing, he raised his hand and, with the help of the Creator's power, created a small "Fallen Kingdom" to trap the black figure in the pool.
Then he told Audrey a few words and gave her a pair of glasses made of "Order Crystal," and followed Audrey into the "Fallen Kingdom," while Beverly guarded this "Fallen Kingdom" outside.
Arriving in the "Fallen Kingdom," Hobert still used the same terrain as the outside pool and mountains, etc., to make it easier for Audrey to observe, but this space could trap the "Demoness of Catastrophe" who was about to lose control.
The "Demoness of Catastrophe's" spirituality sensed Hobert's level, so she hid at the bottom of the pool and dared not come out. Hobert raised his hand, broke the ice, and "squeezed" the "Demoness of Catastrophe" out of it.
The "Fallen Kingdom" belongs to Hobert's Divine Kingdom. In it, he can easily deal with a Sequence 2 angel.
The angel's condition was visibly very poor. She would form a graceful ice sculpture for a while, then the sculpture would collapse, and then form a very beautiful female image on the mirror-like ice, but then this image would be difficult to maintain, and finally turn into a ball of black hair, but before long, it would turn into an ice sculpture again and start a new round of circulation.
Hobert used his Beyonder power to fix the "Demoness of Catastrophe" in front of him so that Audrey could observe carefully, and observe as she pleased.
This "Demoness of Catastrophe" sometimes made ugly hissing sounds, sometimes tried to escape using stand-ins and other abilities, and sometimes teased Audrey with a very beautiful voice.
These extraordinary attacks were all blocked by Hobert and did not affect Audrey.
However, just facing a "Demoness of Catastrophe" with ever-changing images, Audrey was also a little flushed.
She hypnotized herself a little bit so that she could concentrate on observing the witch:
The clothes of her ice sculpture state have obvious characteristics of the Fourth Epoch, obviously her best state was in the Fourth Epoch...
The state of her hair looks like her most "chaotic" state. In fact, when maintaining the state of a ball of hair, she maintains the most sanity.
The more normal female state has some facial features of the Central Plateau. It can be determined that her hometown is in the Northern Continent.
...
With the deepening of observation, Audrey obtained more useful information:
She tries to stay away from Hobert as much as possible, obviously afraid of Hobert, or afraid of Hobert's level, which shows that she still has some sanity.
In the struggle, she used many abilities, but did not use the abilities of "Mirror Jump" and "Mirror Stand-in," which shows that she is very clear about the changes in the "Mirror World." And knowing that the Creator has reconstructed the "Mirror World," if she uses abilities related to the "Mirror World," she is likely to be discovered by the Creator.
...
After observing for seven or eight minutes, Audrey felt that her observation ability had actually improved again, which was likely because the observation object was an angel.
After mastering some information, Audrey decided to weave a dream about the scene when the Underworld Emperor and the "Primordial Demoness" were killed by the Seven Gods during the Pale Era of the Fourth Epoch!
According to Audrey's analysis, the scene when the Underworld Emperor and the Primordial Demoness were defeated by the Seven Gods must have left an indelible psychological shadow on this witch, and she planned to "add salt to the wound."
After consulting Hobert on several historical questions about the Fourth Epoch, Audrey decided to give it a try.
So, with Hobert's help, the "Demoness of Catastrophe" successfully fell asleep. Even in the sleeping state, her appearance was constantly changing.
Under Hobert's protection, the two jumped into the witch's dream together.
This dream looked very chaotic. The mountains inside looked like mountains in shape, but they had many pieces of meat with blood.
The lakes inside had lake water, all of which had strange mouths and looked like lotus flowers. The people inside were made up of strands of hair, looking a bit like stick figures.
This is still relatively normal. Not far away, there are black vortexes, and just one glance makes Audrey dizzy.
There are also some creatures with only huge skeletons walking around, and creatures with a bull's head standing motionless in the pond.
These very strange creatures and those vortexes are basically the crazy and distorted parts of this witch. With Hobert's protection, and wearing glasses made of "Order Crystal," Audrey was not greatly affected, otherwise, in such a dream, her spirit would easily be polluted.
Audrey steadied her mind and began to weave the dream.
The surrounding scenes were stirred up, but Audrey tried not to touch the black vortexes and those strange creatures.
Under her shaping, an ancient city gradually appeared, which was the impression formed by Audrey from some descriptions of ancient Trier she had seen in some documents before.
Because she had never seen the full picture of this city, she could only shape a part of it, but fortunately it was used as a background, and in the dream, she could use the influence of the subconscious to make the target think that it was ancient Trier.
Immediately afterwards, Audrey began to shape the image of the gods. First, the Evernight Goddess with a surging sense of tranquility appeared, followed by a majestic figure in the storm and dark clouds.
Just as she was outlining the third god, a mountain full of pieces of meat split open, and a huge statue rose from it!
That statue had unparalleled beauty, and its hair stretched out like pythons.
The massive statue shook slightly, its stone shell falling away, and the statue actually came to life. Its hair writhed, and the eyes at the tips of its hair gradually turned everything it saw gray and petrified. Everything it touched transformed into beautiful women.
Hobert immediately stood in front of Audrey: "'The Primordial Demoness'!"
This was somewhat unexpected.
Audrey was also surprised: "Could this 'Demoness of Catastrophe,' who is on the verge of losing control, be a setup for the resurrection of 'The Primordial Demoness'?"
"Possibly." Hobert noticed that the 'Primordial Demoness' in front of him was bluffing. He thought about it and realized it made sense. The uniqueness and the three Sequence 1 characteristics of the 'Witch' pathway were all with the 'Creator.' The 'Primordial Demoness' in the dream was just an empty shell.
It was likely that she realized if she allowed Audrey to weave the dream properly, this 'Demoness of Catastrophe' would easily lose control completely. This forced the 'Primordial Demoness,' who was residing within this 'Demoness of Catastrophe,' to come out for a desperate fight.
Hobert retreated with Audrey while saying, "I'll give you an image. Construct it and see if it can affect the 'Primordial Demoness.'"
If it didn't work, he would take action.
Audrey nodded and immediately received the image that Hobert had 'distorted' into her mind. After a slight pause, she immediately shaped that majestic figure.
The figure had a handsome black cloak and exquisite armor, as if he were an emperor on a battlefield.
Behind him appeared an illusory fairyland, with clouds and mist swirling around, floating platforms, pavilions, and flowing water.
Within the pavilions, there was vaguely an ancient giant clock, which resembled an eye that scorned everything.
With each breath he took, he stirred the rules of the surrounding sea. Around him, some rules were severely distorted, while others became iron laws, and no god could make any changes.
This was the mythical creature form of the 'Creator,' Hobert, when he was at the 'Half Great Old One' level.
After seeing this figure, the 'Primordial Demoness' seemed to once again feel that surging power that constantly shattered everything in front of her!
She retreated. The mythical creature form of the 'Creator' had left an indelible psychological shadow on her.
During the Fourth Epoch, she faced the attacks of three gods alone, and even then, she wasn't as desperate!
The retreat of the 'Primordial Demoness' immediately triggered a collapse. Large areas of the dream began to crumble, as if the world was plunging into doomsday.
Finally, the image of the 'Primordial Demoness' also collapsed, and the entire dream became even more distorted and chaotic.
Hobert immediately led Audrey out of the dream. The 'Demoness of Catastrophe' in front of them was completely out of control.
Most of the time, Hobert was only at the level of a King of Angels, but he was the 'Creator,' and the 'Creator' was Hobert. Therefore, when he needed to, he could possess the level of a Great Old One.
This was the case at this moment. He used the power of the Old One to isolate all corruption. Otherwise, a King of Angels emerging from a dream of a runaway angel would definitely be affected to some extent.
Immediately afterward, Hobert continued to borrow the power of the 'Creator' to change the monster from 'alive' to 'dead.'
The out-of-control 'Demoness of Catastrophe' instantly lost all vitality.
Hobert then used the new ability he had just obtained to make the monster's Beyonder characteristics 'chaotic,' making its ability to revive ineffective. This cut off the process of its resurrection from the root.
Soon, Hobert obtained a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact that matched the 'Demoness of Catastrophe.'
Then he looked at Audrey: "Can the operation in the dream just now be used as a ritual for advancement?"
Audrey took a deep breath and felt it: "Yes, it can."
And it was a very solid ritual.
…
Inside the mausoleum of the 'Black Emperor.'
The 'Creator' spent more than a month stabilizing his state, and now he was ready.
He once again took out the uniqueness and Beyonder characteristics he had seized from the 'Uncertain Mist' during the previous battle.
Initially, these Beyonder characteristics were entangled together under the influence of the 'Uncertain Mist's' spiritual imprint. Later, after the 'Creator' repeatedly shattered them, he finally obtained characteristics equivalent to four Sequence 1 levels.
The reason it was 'equivalent to' was because these characteristics had not been used for advancement multiple times, and they didn't have the very precise Sequence 1 'dosage' like on Earth.
The 'Creator' also interfered with the Convergence process to obtain these four characteristics.
Three of them were clearly from one pathway, and the other one was from a separate pathway.
This made the 'Creator' clearly realize that there were likely two more Sequence 1 characteristics with the 'Son of Chaos.'
Originally, the Son of Chaos should have had 3, but at some point after the Son of Chaos was sealed, it was likely that the Uncertain Mist accommodated a 4th Pathway!
In other words, the 'Son of Chaos' had four pathways within its body back then, two of which were the 'Black Emperor' and the 'Justiciar.'
Then there was this pathway that was seized, whose main authority was 'transaction,' and being outside of the 'transaction.' In addition to the main authority, there were some abilities that could inflate the target's ambition, create an undisturbed 'black box space,' as well as abilities similar to 'decrees' and 'attack reflection.'
The 'Creator' called this pathway 'Supreme Overseer.' Everything could initiate a transaction and complete a transaction. Although the transaction result was exactly what he wanted, he could stay out of it and be the supervisor of the transaction.
The 'Creator' believed that what was more difficult to deal with than 'transaction' was the other party's ability to 'observe.'
Most of the extraordinary powers of the Outer Deities could change the 'transaction result,' but it was difficult to harm the person who initiated the transaction but observed it, so it was called 'Overseer.'
Then the fourth pathway should be the 'Chaos' ability with the 'forward change' characteristic. The uniqueness and the other two Beyonder characteristics were likely with the 'Son of Chaos.'
According to the only Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic of the 'Chaos Mist' pathway that the 'Creator' had obtained, he speculated that the authority of this pathway was clearly 'chaos.' It could be said to be restoration or 'forward change.'
Overall, it did not exceed the symbolism of 'Transformation.'
The main abilities were probably the qualitative change and enhancement of the 'Duke of Entropy' ability, which could allow the target to return to the 'chaos' state.
There were also many abilities that were very similar to the 'Black Emperor's' abilities, such as allowing the target to fall into a 'chaos' state, which was very similar to a 'disordered' state.
Another very powerful aspect was that 'chaos' not only represented 'the source of everything' but also represented 'the unknown.'
And the 'Son of Chaos' with the 'chaos' authority should be able to manipulate the unknown. For example, something might be unknown to others, but to him, it could have a clear result.
For example, in a chaotic area, it might be the state of the universe at the beginning, or it might have formed a self-contained world, and everything in it was unknown.
But for the 'Son of Chaos,' everything in this chaotic area was controllable. Therefore, if he was willing, the 'unknown' could have a definite result.
The 'Creator' believed that the 'Son of Chaos' should be able to use his own level and the authority of 'chaos' to simulate the abilities of the 'Black Emperor' and other three pathways.
The theory of this ability was: first, generate a 'chaos' ability. At this time, the ability was unknown, but he could turn this unknown into known. Under his guidance, he could simulate abilities such as 'change' or 'transaction.'
Of course, he could only possess abilities within his authority. Abilities from non-adjacent pathways could not be formed.
He had such a guess because the 'Creator' 'recalled' some of the abilities of the 'Genie.'
The 'Genie' once helped Bernadette possess the level and abilities of Sequence 1 for a day, which was a kind of 'change,' changing Sequence 3 to Sequence 1.
Of course, it could also be seen as a very advanced 'distortion,' or a qualitative change in 'distortion.' Combining it with the Miracle authority allowed for a distorted 'Change.'
And the 'transaction' between the 'Genie' and 'Fool' Klein 'once,' the reason why the 'Genie' was not afraid of Klein going back on his word was because he had the relevant authority to 'supervise transactions.'
The Genie told the truth about one thing: he almost became a Pillar back then!
For the 'Creator,' this was a good thing because with the 'Son of Chaos' working hard in front, the 'Supreme Overseer' pathway was now a pathway with similar authority to the 'Creator.'
After accommodating the uniqueness of the 'Supreme Overseer,' he could 'change' this pathway into an adjacent pathway to the 'Black Emperor' and 'Justiciar.'
In the future, he should also be able to turn the 'Chaos' pathway into an adjacent pathway.
At this moment, in the mausoleum, the 'Creator' first recalled his previous guesses, then adjusted his state, and with a wave of his hand towards the uniqueness of the 'Supreme Overseer' and a Sequence 1 characteristic, they rapidly submerged into the 'Creator's' body in a state of losing their seal!
The 'Creator' did not feel any hindrance at all, as if two raindrops had dripped into a glass of water.
But immediately afterward, the 'Creator' seemed to become completely illusory, as if he had no connection with the real world.
Emptiness, coldness, and powerlessness filled all the 'Creator's' senses.
Because he was already a Great Old One, he did not lose his mind in the process, but he felt that he had completely detached from this world.
This feeling was strange but also a little terrifying because he seemed unable to exert any influence on this world.
At the same time, it was also because of the level of the Old One that the 'Creator' was able to calmly summon a substitute and give that 'substitute' a 'connection' to the real world.
The substitute reached out and grabbed the 'Creator,' who seemed to be getting further and further away from the real world.
This phenomenon was obviously unreasonable. First of all, extraordinary powers could not be used at all during a process similar to advancement. Secondly, since the 'Creator's' main body no longer belonged to this world, the substitute he summoned should not belong to this world either.
But the 'Creator' was the 'Shadow of Order.' It was normal for him not to obey the order.
So the 'Creator' did not continue to become illusory. Immediately afterward, the power of the 'Nation of Disorder' manifested, quickly helping the 'Creator' accept and sort out the abilities of the 'Overseer.'
Soon, the 'Creator's' figure began to solidify.
But it was also at this time that he felt his spirit was being invaded by something, and at the same time, his consciousness was being affected by something.
It was the spiritual imprint of the 'Uncertain Mist.'
The appearance of the spiritual imprint indicated that the process of accommodating the uniqueness was coming to an end.
The 'Creator' immediately concentrated on dealing with this spiritual imprint, trying to keep it within a controllable range.
He was about to summon the 'Bell of Order' when the substitute who was holding him suddenly opened his mouth coldly: "Tell me, what would be the consequences if I let you go at this time?"
The 'Creator' was stunned for a moment and said: "I couldn't wish for more."
He realized that the spiritual imprint of the 'Uncertain Mist' had failed to gain a foothold in the 'Creator's' body, so it instantly occupied the spirit and consciousness of the substitute who had a close connection with the 'Creator.'
This was the power of a spiritual imprint at the Great Old One level. Even if it was just an imprint, it seemed to give people a feeling of complete consciousness.
At the same time, the 'Creator' realized that his ability to summon substitutes had been 'distorted,' and he could not summon a new substitute at this time.
The 'Creator' did not say the opposite just now. If the substitute let go now, he really couldn't wish for more. In that case, he could completely break the connection with the substitute.
This substitute would become an independent entity, and the 'Creator' would become illusory again.
But in that case, the 'Creator' would not be affected by the substitute with the spiritual imprint of the 'Uncertain Mist' anymore. Summoning another substitute would still be able to pull himself back to the real world.
He didn't even need to take action. The angels of Atlantis could eliminate the substitute. If that didn't work, he could ask the 'Fool' for help, and he could easily solve the problem.
But now, the substitute did not let go of the 'Creator,' so he was stuck between reality and illusion.
The substitute said: "Let's discuss it."
The 'Creator' found that in his current state, he could still summon the 'Bell of Order,' but the process was a bit slow.
He asked: "Who are you?"
"I am a part of you." The substitute said expressionlessly: "If you want to completely control the Beyonder characteristics you just accommodated, if you want to turn it into an adjacent pathway to the previous two pathways, you must accept me."
The 'Creator' certainly knew that what the 'substitute' said was true. Without the imprint of the 'Uncertain Mist,' although he could complete the accommodation process, the Beyonder characteristics would obviously be somewhat uncoordinated.
After all, the 'Supreme Overseer' pathway and the 'Black Emperor' and 'Justiciar' could not be considered strictly adjacent pathways, but only pathways with similar authority.
The 'Creator' had also prepared to accept a part of the spiritual imprint of the 'Uncertain Mist' and become a part of his divinity, but he did not want to accept it passively.
Dong~
The 'Bell of Order' was finally summoned. With a melodious chime, the substitute's figure only stirred slightly and then returned to normal: "It's useless. Now I am not seizing your consciousness, nor am I a part of divinity, so the 'Bell of Order' is useless to me."
The 'Creator' frowned. If he accommodated the spiritual imprint of the 'Uncertain Mist' according to the other party's intention, his spirit and thinking would undergo considerable changes.
But if he didn't accommodate it, continuing the stalemate would also be very dangerous, and a part of the connection with the real world might be completely broken.
In that case, it would definitely affect his state.
Neither of these choices was what the Creator wanted, as He had been working hard to maintain a good state, so that he would have a chance to devour other Outer Deities and ultimately face the "Son of Chaos."
But soon the Creator had another idea, and in the next second, Hobert appeared in the mausoleum.
He came to try to pull the Creator over, but the problem was that he was in the real world and couldn't grasp the Creator.
Moreover, the Creator was currently under the influence of the Uncertain Mist substitute, and could no longer affect the real world, nor could he make Hobert illusory.
Hobert stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, then prayed to "The Fool," asking Him to "fool" the real world and re-accept the Creator.
The Fool quickly responded, He "fooled" the real world, but the Creator's current state was special, and He still couldn't return.
Hobert suddenly realized that he was the biggest connection between the Creator and the real world!
So he first returned to Angel City's palace, spreading his spirituality throughout the country, "twisting" the thoughts of all his subjects, and making everyone praise their emperor.
In an instant, surging "power of faith" poured into the nine mausoleums, and after being "magnified" and "stabilized" by the mausoleums, it surged towards the Creator and Hobert.
Because the Creator was Hobert, the connection between them was strengthened.
At this moment, Hobert immediately returned to the mausoleum and jumped towards the now more illusory Creator. The connection between the two allowed them to merge into one.
In an instant, Hobert became the "foundation" for the Creator's existence in this world. The fusion process continued and quickly came to an end, and the Creator returned to the real world.
As for the substitute with the Uncertain Mist spiritual imprint, it seemed to realize its fate, or perhaps it simply didn't have a very complex way of thinking, so it didn't run away.
The Creator sensed that after returning to the real world, all His abilities were no longer affected by the substitute. He was about to undo the maintenance of the substitute, but then thought that this was a good opportunity to experiment.
So the Creator asked "The Fool," who still hadn't left, to fool the substitute, making the Uncertain Mist spiritual imprint believe that it was the Creator.
This was because if the substitute was dispelled, part of the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint would return to its previous state and attack the Creator's main body.
This was because the root of these spiritual imprints' existence was the uniqueness and high-level Beyonder characteristics of the "Spectator" pathway, and they were already inside the Creator's body, which was unavoidable.
But now the Creator could concentrate on resisting these spiritual imprints. This resistance process might take some time, but the Creator currently had the advantage and would eventually fuse part of the spiritual imprint within a controllable range.
It was impossible not to fuse at all; this was the price of obtaining power. The Creator's current advantage allowed Him to calmly fuse according to His own intentions.
If the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint thought it was the Creator's spiritual imprint, even if it only thought so for a short while, theoretically, the Creator could quickly solve the problem of the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint.
The Fool immediately carried out the "fooling" according to the Creator's intention.
The Creator lifted the maintenance of the substitute, and in that instant, His spirit and consciousness were indeed impacted again.
But this impact was very gentle, because at this time, the "attacker" thought he was the "attacked."
This was equivalent to the Creator being a burning furnace before, and the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint being like pouring a basin of water into the furnace.
But now, the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint was like adding a ball of fire to the furnace. Perhaps this ball of fire had a different temperature from the fire in the furnace, but it was still fire after all.
The Creator separated the distorted and crazy parts of the spiritual imprint from the obviously gentler parts.
He quickly fused the gentle parts and bestowed away the distorted and crazy parts.
At this time, the effect of "fooling" ended, and the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint seemed to suddenly "come to its senses," but it had already been decomposed. Although it still caused an impact on the Creator's spirit and consciousness, the impact was limited.
With the Creator's efforts, this impact quickly weakened.
The Creator made a simple assessment and determined that the problem of the spiritual imprint should be completely resolved within three days.
Immediately afterwards, the Creator realized that He had obtained some fragmented knowledge and some fragmented ideas.
These all belonged to the Uncertain Mist. These knowledge and ideas would eventually have some impact on the Creator, but the impact was small, and overall it was a good situation.
"Fooling" the spiritual imprint or consciousness of a Great Old One was a method that the Creator and The Fool had discussed before to deal with the "Son of Chaos." The Fool was also using this method to deal with the Celestial Worthy.
From the current experiment, this method was very practical for the Creator, but it was not as effective for The Fool.
Because the Celestial Worthy was already a part of Him, and a slight misoperation could easily lead to Him "fooling" Himself.
The Creator was different. He first fooled the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint before fusing it, so that He could control the initiative of the process.
The Creator expressed His gratitude to The Fool. After The Fool left, He paid attention to the knowledge and ideas He had obtained from the Uncertain Mist's spiritual imprint.
Although these knowledge initially felt chaotic, the Creator's spirituality quickly categorized them and made them part of the Creator's knowledge.
The same was true for "ideas." These ideas would also become the Creator's "ideas." If there were any plans, the Creator would even try to complete them.
Among these knowledge and ideas, the Creator quickly discovered some important information, including information about the Celestial Worthy and the Uncertain Mist: back then, the Celestial Worthy had used the Uncertain Mist to conduct Sefirah and Beyonder characteristic decomposition experiments.
