Tiny white particles of light, like grains of sand, slowly drifted in the air.
They constantly collided with each other, fused, grew bigger and brighter.
The soft white light released by the countless grains of sand woke Ancellia's consciousness from the chaos.
Her body trembled, and her eyes slowly opened.
She was surrounded by a boundless whiteness, as if there was no limit to the white sand, as if there was no end, constantly flying around her body.
She felt like she was lying in a sea of flowers. There was a soft fragrance all around. There was a faint human voice in the distance, but she could not discern the language of the voice at all. It only sent her a familiar smell of fireworks.
"I … Where am I?" Ancellia slowly straightened her body and looked around.
"You're finally awake."
Suddenly, a calm male voice came from right in front of her.
In the white light, a tall and burly man in white armor was sitting on a chair made of white light with his legs crossed.
"In order to save you, I spent a total of four days."
The man pulled off the fully enclosed helmet, revealing a straight and calm face. It was Lin Sheng who was still in the Sea of Origin.
Ancellia looked confused. She did not know who the other person was. She did not know what the other person meant.
She only remembered that she went to the Infinite City, obtained the secret treasure, and then used it to try to break through the spirit. Unfortunately … it seemed to have failed.
"I remember, I should still be in the Infinite City …"
"Yes, I fished you out of the Infinite City," Lin Sheng interrupted her. "Ancellia, as an inheritor of the Holy Light, I hope you can answer my questions truthfully."
"What is this place?" Ancellia slowly regained her composure and looked around.
"Sacred space." Lin Sheng replied, "A guarded space made entirely of Saint Power. Because the contamination on you is too serious, I had no choice but to use this method to seal you. I hope you can understand. "
"Can't I go out?" Ancellia asked after a moment of silence.
"Of course. In your current condition, you will be killed by the Sea of Origin immediately if you go out. After leaving Limitless City, your immortality has been greatly weakened. You should know the consequences if you're killed, "Lin Sheng casually advised.
He wasn't lying. It was all true.
To better restore Ancellia's sanity, he had constructed a unique sacred space with Saint power. It was to completely cut off its connection with the Blacktide.
Moreover, there was another reason why he had spent so much time. After defeating Ancellia in the Sea of Origin, he was contaminated by the Blacktide to a certain extent.
Hence, Lin Sheng was also invited to help dispel a portion of the Chaotic Soul Power that had been contaminated.
Because the Chaotic Soul Power contained an extremely tenacious and powerful will, the corrosion of the Black Tide was very slow. This also made it easier for Lin Sheng to guard the seal.
By the time he completely solved the problem in the Sea of Origin, Ancellia was almost awake.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Sheng. I have received the legacy of Saint power, so to a certain extent, we should be the same kind." Lin Sheng held out his hand to Ancellia.
The latter was slightly taken aback, but then reached out and shook his hand gently.
"Ancellia, once a Holy Paladin, but now, just a cripple."
"A cripple would not have the strength to force me to use my true strength." Lin Sheng smiled. "A long, long time ago, I found the destroyed Blackfeather City through a dream …"
He began to narrate seriously, bit by bit, how he got the legacy of the Holy Sanctum, how he followed her footsteps step by step, and came to this world.
Ancellia was still a little wary at first, but soon, she became more and more engrossed.
Because from what he said, it was clear that he was not lying. As he recounted the past, she gradually began to recall bits and pieces of her past.
The distant past that had been sealed in the depths of her memory, like an old book that had been dusted, slowly turned page by page.
"I have killed huge monsters like sea serpents and octopuses."
"I have slaughtered countless distorted and polluted creatures."
"I have explored a huge, strange dimension."
"I have come into contact with the struggling will left behind by the gods."
"But all of this, everything I have come into contact with, has your shadow everywhere."
Lin Sheng looked at Ancellia calmly.
"So, I have followed your footsteps all the way, just to see if you have found the hope to redeem everything, to redeem everything."
Ancellia's lips were slightly parted. As Lin Sheng narrated, she seemed to be recalling the countless years that she had gone through.
She stood quietly in the white light with an embarrassed expression and a trace of helplessness.
She remained silent and did not speak. Lin Sheng did not rush her, and just waited.
He had been searching for so long, and had spent so much time and energy, he did not mind waiting a little longer.
After a long, long time.
Ancellia took a deep breath, recalled the contents in her mind, and said softly.
"I have found it, but I have failed."
She looked a little desolate.
"Ritual of Solitude, combined with the ultimate secret treasure of the Infinite City, I almost succeeded. But unfortunately … "
"You failed? Why did you fail? What is the secret treasure of the Infinite City? Why do you think you can redeem everything? "Lin Sheng asked seriously.
Ancellia glanced up at him.
"The secret treasure of the Infinite City is called the Soul Division. It can divide a person's truesoul into countless pieces, and let them grow independently.
When the truesoul grows to a certain extent, it can be fused again to form an unparalleled huge body.
This is the only way to break through the spirit. The only, non-replicable way.
Because the Soul Division can only be used three times. Before me, someone had used it once. That is how the Infinite City was built. "
Ancellia shook her head slightly and said bitterly, "I used it the second time. But now it seems that I have failed. "
"Why did you fail?" Lin Sheng asked.
"Because … I did not understand the nature of the Blacktide," Ancellia replied in a low voice.
"The nature of the Blacktide?"
"The Blacktide is a disaster of spirituality. It is not a disaster, nor is it a power controlled by the will of any creature. And it is just a phenomenon. "
Ancellia whispered.
"No matter what dimension, whatever dimension, there is spirituality being born and condensed all the time. The existence of spirituality uses resources, the universe, and everything around it. But in this world, everything must follow the principle of balance. Spirituality naturally has an existence that opposes it. That is the Blacktide. "
"Opposites?" Lin Sheng compared everything he had seen before, all the phenomena of the Blacktide.
Everything seemed to be making sense to him.
"So, is it possible for those contaminated creatures to return to normal?" He asked again.
Ancellia shook her head. "Their truesouls have been digested and dissolved by the Blacktide. You can reshape their souls, but you must give them something to rely on, a truesoul to rely on. "
Lin Sheng suddenly understood. This was the relationship between him and the commanders under his command.
"What about you? Your truesoul now … "Lin Sheng asked in a low voice.
