Chapter 265
This gem sword was one of the Soundless Cult's rare treasures, it contained the entirety of the cult's members' mana from a certain period of time, which could be instantly channeled into a single person's body through the ritual formations carved on it.
And because he was stabbed by the gem sword, this devout cultist's life force quickly dissipated. He was originally a living being, so the aspect of silence was a non-living being, while his corpse after death was a living being from the aspect of silence.
This was the transition between life and death, but at this very moment, he happened to be situated between life and death. Under the influence of a large amount of warped mana, the cultist underwent a strange change, he was neither a living being, nor a non-living being.
Life and death overlapped, combined with the various rituals of the Soundless Cult, this cultist slowly turned into a unique entity, one that the Soundless Cult called the Holy Apostle.
The boundary between life and death was instinctively broken by him, the information of the two aspects of the world no longer held back in front of him. In this state, due to the aspect of the world, the Holy Apostle was able to observe the aspect of possibility, which was also the aspect of a curved surface.
Various information belonging to this world converged, and due to the creation of different information, different possibilities of the world were derived, which meant different futures. After he escaped from life and death, the world that was originally 'flat' became 'curved'.
Because of this, he was able to observe the information of the future through this curved surface, as well as how the world would develop under different possibilities.
In that split second, the Holy Apostle even felt like he was a God. What kind of great power was this? It was both shocking and tempting.
However, the cultist was still a devout believer, so he quickly understood that his current power belonged to God, and he was merely borrowing God's power, so how powerful would a God who truly wielded such power be?
The Holy Apostle turned into a faint blue figure that hovered in the air, displaying various scenes in front of his eyes.
Some of the super plants acted up and found the giant's weakness, quickly absorbing the giant, then borrowing the giant's unique characteristic of overlapping two aspects to truly step into reality, becoming a true sentient lifeform.
Some of the giants mutated after being touched by the plant, their body began to rot and turn into an undead, devouring the plant and finally betraying the Soundless Cult.
There weren't too many scenes, but most of them were still in a stalemate, with the giant slowly being pushed back and finally killed by the plant.
"No one can stop the descent of God, silence is eternal!" the Holy Apostle devoutly declared, the blue glow around his body flickered and shot towards the giants.
The giants could feel their collapsing bodies stabilizing once again. Among the countless possibilities, there was a 90% chance that the giants' bodies were formed from the deterioration of the spell's structure and eventually collapsed.
However, there was still a 10% chance that the Giants would be able to maintain the 10% chance with the help of the Otherworldly Magic.
At the same time, Saint could also sense where the roots of the plant would attack from in the future, where there were more roots, and where the key root system of the plant was.
In this situation where the battle information was completely overwhelming, the giants managed to turn the tide and even caused the plants to lose a lot of their roots.
The scales of victory had tilted in the Soundless Cult's favor. It was this prophetic ability that the Soundless Cult treated as their trump card.
However, after half an hour, the Holy Apostle would lose more and more of their bodies, of the Holy Apostle's bodies of Soundless Cult, of the most likely of their bodies of of the Swordless Cult. Apostle, the Holy of of of the Saint of the Cult.
However, after half an hour, perhaps due to having seen too many possibilities, this Holy Apostle would lose control more and more, eventually collapsing along with his soul.
That is indeed the case. How could a human possibly observe two different perspectives at once and combine them? The Holy Apostle calmly thought to himself: If it weren't for the power of God, I could observe two different perspectives at once, even using them to observe the possibilities of the future.
More and more scenes of the future flowed into the cultist's eyes. The bastard that still retained its rationality (the Gluttonous Demon Ghost) would soon die, but what the Holy Apostle found strange was that regardless of which scene it was, the bastard would choose to burn itself to death, spreading the flames throughout the entire underground ruin.
However, these were all trivial matters, as the cultist soon saw more of the future. The one who activated the Blood of God that had fused with the sprout of the Tree of Life.
In the future he saw, Chromie might succeed in fusing with the Tree of Life, or he might fail. However, with his help, the Soundless Cult's members would arrive in time to sacrifice both him and the Tree of Life, then successfully awaken the slumbering God of Soundless.
He saw the descent of God, but what happened next was completely out of the cultist's expectations. The monster that suddenly jumped out, the altered ritual, the change in the awakened Blood of God, everything caused the Holy Apostle to feel shock and even fear.
"No … that is!!!" The Holy Apostle's mind was overwhelmed by what he saw. He madly searched for other scenes of the future, subconsciously immersing himself in them. He changed the ritual, he used mana to influence Chromie, he sent people to intercept the monster ahead of time.
But all of this was useless, the future was still moving towards the same fixed scene.
At this moment, he felt like he could hear the gears of a clock turning, as if he had used information to sway the future towards the Soundless Cult. Someone had used a far superior method to him and had already determined the future.
Seeing the originally normal Holy Apostle suddenly going insane and screaming in disbelief, the Grand Priest felt his heart tighten and hurriedly asked, "What happened in the future?"
But the Holy Apostle didn't answer him, his body completely faded away as he turned his head towards the curved angle.
"Perhaps the scene of God's descent was too shocking" the Grand Priest consoled himself. After all, the Holy Apostle had always ended up losing control of himself, this time, it was only a matter of losing control a bit earlier.
As the Holy Apostle moved through the curved angle, his expression gradually became frenzied. He didn't want to believe it, and he couldn't.
Pushing open the door of the tree hole, the Holy Apostle followed the sound of gears and quickly arrived in front of a wooden table.
The man was sitting on the chair, one hand holding a book, the other resting on the armrest to support his head.
A cup of tea was placed on top of the wooden table, as if waiting for this guest.
The Holy Apostle's expression was filled with fear, he once again tried to look for another possibility, but no matter how he tried, the man was always sitting there with the same cup of tea.
The Holy Apostle finally slumped down on the chair on the other side of the wooden table, his hand trembling as he picked up the cup of tea. He was actually in a very good state, much better than the Holy Apostles before him. Even now, his body structure hadn't deteriorated at all, so if this continued, he would be able to exist forever.
"Why? You have completely taken control of my future, none of the scenes I foresee can escape your control "the Holy Apostle said, a bit on the verge of collapse.
