Cataclysm King - #385 - Chapter 385: Grab [Moon]
Have an IN party, right?
Ji Xun looked at the men and women unleashing their passion on the dance floor in the banquet hall, with a slightly evil curve on his lips.
This was much more exciting than what he had experienced while working as an undercover agent for the Silver Moon Sect.
No need to be secretive, everything is laid out openly.
After a quick glance, most of the people in the banquet hall who were eligible to attend the dinner were the upper class celebrities of the Thieves City.
Many of them are big names seen in newspapers.
Mrs. Zelia of the “Rhodes Chamber of Commerce”, the second daughter of the “Iron Ore Tycoon” Jacob family, the youngest daughter of the Count of Montenegro, and the popular opera singer Effie
Young ladies from upper class families usually look good, their skin and figure are well maintained, they look glamorous, and they have a luxurious and wealthy temperament.
To be honest, the temptation is very strong.
Ji Xun glanced over and saw naked bodies dressed in cool clothes and even no hair at all.
These ladies and ladies, who are usually dignified and reserved, did not hesitate to show off their beautiful figures here. They danced with the gentlemen without shyness, chatted and laughed happily while holding wine glasses.
The entire banquet hall was filled with a restless hormonal atmosphere.
Although the private life of the aristocratic circle is very open, this is the first time Ji Xun has experienced such a group joyful scene.
It has to be said that the Moon God, who is known as the “Lord of Joy”, does have extraordinary means.
If you want to win over believers from all walks of life, there is no faster way than to satisfy your desires.
After entering the door, a bunny girl in cool clothes walked by carrying a drink.
Ji Xun said hello, took a glass of wine and found an inconspicuous sofa to sit down on.
There are also some calm high-level card masters or middle-aged gentlemen sitting on other sofas.
They seemed to be enjoying a stage play, looking at the spring-filled banquet hall in front of them, enjoying the pleasure but not being restless.
In the eyes of high-level card masters, physical pleasure is actually a very low-level pleasure.
Mental comfort is a more advanced experience.
After all, reality always has flaws, and only the spiritual world can satisfy all people’s fantasies.
And it just so happens that Arachne, the “Lord of Dreams and Joy”, can create a perfect dream world.
Even the chandeliers in the banquet hall are ancient relics that can continuously output moonlight.
In enlightenment, reminders of belief pollution and spiritual mystical erosion keep recurring.
Ji Xun didn’t think so either.
He is completely immune to the pollution of faith.
As for those spiritual arts, they are not offensive arts. They are meant to give people a pleasant experience.
He also enjoyed it, lying on the sofa with a leisurely expression, drinking wine.
It was Ji Xun’s first time to attend such a party. As a new face, a beautiful woman in a plain white robe quickly noticed him and came over on her own initiative.
She has wavy blond hair, outstanding appearance, and most importantly, a clean temperament.
Those who can wear clothes in the banquet hall are still made of high-grade fabrics with silver patterns on a white background. They are obviously senior clergy of the Silver Moon Sect.
Seeing her coming, Ji Xun stood up from the sofa very wisely.
The nun introduced herself: “I am the assistant to the bishop of White Dove Cathedral. You can call me Amelia. Welcome, Your Excellency.”
Ji Xun also raised his glass in a gentlemanly manner and said, “It is my honor to attend such a high-end banquet.”
Amelia smiled and said, “Sir, don’t you enjoy the dance?”
Ji Xun raised his eyelids and looked at the young men and women on the dance floor. He was a little interested, but not high.
Instead, he glanced at the nun in front of him.
Amelia obviously understood what she meant, and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips: “If sir wants to invite me to dance, Amelia is also willing. But I am a divine attendant serving Lord Moon God.”
Neither refused nor agreed.
Believers are just like normal people except that they absolutely obey the will of the gods.
Ji Xun chuckled as he listened: “That would be a pity.”
He knew that there were levels of authority in the Silver Moon Sect.
Only believers who are devout enough are qualified to communicate with senior clergy.
After all, these clergy are not just vases, they are also extraordinary beings blessed by the power of the moon god.
Communicating with them is not only physical pleasure, but also real benefits.
This is also one of the most effective ways for the Silver Moon Sect to quickly win over high-level card masters.
Ji Xun had already inquired clearly from the tavern intelligence merchant.
But he didn’t come to participate in some IN sex.
Ji Xun said directly: “I heard that there is a secret method of spiritual visualization in the sect?”
He made no secret of his purpose.
There are even many people here like him who came here for the books and secrets of the Silver Moon Sect.
In order to control the faith of the Eastern Wasteland as soon as possible, the Oran royal family even took out the classics, exercises, professional card templates, etc. that had been stored in the treasury for thousands of years.
As long as you join the Silver Moon Sect, those things will be at your fingertips.
This is a fatal temptation for Donghuang card masters who have never eaten fine rice bran.
Not only are there a large number of palace secrets, but also the “super-level realm” that was once completely blank above the sixth level.
This is an irresistible temptation for those legends who are stuck on the threshold of the seventh level, as well as those card masters who want to go further on the extraordinary journey.
After all, in the eyes of ordinary people like hunters, all they have to do is work hard to survive.
In their eyes, there is no difference between working for the former Federation or working for the Silver Moon Sect.
On the contrary, joining the Silver Moon Sect is a real benefit.
Hearing Ji Xun’s words, Amelia also smiled and said: “Of course. Not only that, but there are also many different schools of thought methods. But the best one is of course one of the ‘Fifty-Two Magical Mysterious Techniques’. Luna thought”. Sir, if you don’t want to experience the dance more, then come upstairs with me.”
Ji Xun showed an excited expression and said, “Yes. Let’s go upstairs and have a look.”
The Old God Sect is not afraid of any “spies” at all.
Because even if a high-level card master has a strong will, as long as the pollution is strong enough, he is not afraid that the target will not sink.
So when Ji Xun made this request, the assistant bishop took him directly to the second floor.
The moment he stepped onto the second floor, it was as if he had entered a mysterious realm. Ji Xun was immediately shocked by the spectacle in front of him.
In front of you is a fantasy world that transcends reality. The bright moonlight pours down through the fully transparent glass roof, soaking the entire indoor space as if it is gently wrapped in silver gauze, and the air is filled with an unreal and wonderful atmosphere.
Stepping on it, it felt like stepping on the reflection of the moon in the water, causing silver ripples.
Ji Xun instantly felt his spirit soothed, and was in an indescribable dream and peace.
He walked behind Amelia, and as he went deeper and deeper, he felt an increasingly difficult sinking feeling in his heart.
“Tsk tsk. It feels familiar.”
Ji Xun knew what this meant.
Obviously, part of the scene he sees now is actually his own spiritual world.
This perfect combination of reality and illusion makes it impossible to tell the truth from the false.
The most soothing.
Seeing this, he inexplicably remembered the feeling of falling into divine magic in Tailong Machinery City.
But it was the Moon God who came in person at that time, and his magical skills made people endlessly addicted.
And this White Pigeon Temple only has a few, but the level of the spells is obviously a big difference.
At least for Ji Xun now, he can clearly distinguish this half-real and half-illusory state.
This feeling of physical and mental pleasure is also directly reflected in enlightenment.
“Blessed by the ‘Divinity: Blessing of the Moon God’, mental power +0.04, visualization efficiency +10%”
“Being spiritually soothed by the profession-specific relic ‘Moon’, visualization efficiency +15%”
“.”
Ji Xun looked at the increase in enlightenment prompts and secretly sighed that this was the right place.
Even if he does nothing and is just blessed by the environment, his mental power continues to rise.
People in the Silver Moon Sect also know very well that high-level card masters who come into contact with the sect for the first time are bound to be suspicious and cautious.
This kind of belief pollution is not serious, but more of a real nourishment and enhancement of spiritual power.
Even they are not afraid of people coming to try them, and they will leave after learning some secret techniques.
Because the passage to the Old Continent has been blocked, there is no other place in the Eastern Wasteland where people can have such an experience again.
It is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
If you want to obtain the lost secrets and ultra-level secrets, you can only find the Silver Moon Sect.
As long as the card master comes often, they are not afraid of contamination.
Not long after, Ji Xun followed Amelia to a room that looked like a library.
There are tall bookshelves all around, which place books while also taking into account privacy.
Ji Xun sensed that there were at least dozens of people in this room, and their auras were all strong, but they couldn’t see each other.
This is obviously where high-level card masters gather.
Amelia pointed to the bookshelves around her and said: “Here are some spiritual power visualization secrets collected by our sect. Sir, you can find the one that suits you. This book “The Mystery of the Moon” contains some of the bishop’s practice experiences. It may be helpful to you.”
As she said that, she gestured to the moon-absorbing white light ball hanging on the glass ceiling of the room, and said: “Also, that is my teaching’s sacred object [Shen Yue], which contains the fifty-two magical mysterious magic “Sky Moon God” The original secret method of “thinking”. Of course, practicing secret techniques has a lot to do with career fit. If your prayers are answered by Lord Moon God, it will be easier to understand the mystery of this magical art. You can meditate here. If you need anything, you can call Amelia at any time, and I will help you handle everything.”
Ji Xun nodded, “Yeah. Thank you.”
Of course he knew this [Moon] relic, after all, he had seen it many times before.
However, it was a little surprising that this sacred object was actually in the Thieves City. It was obvious that the Moon God valued the Bai family very much.
After thinking about it, Ji Xun also guessed the reason.
In reality, you cannot experience death and have an understanding of death at the same time.
But it can be done in spiritual dreams.
And this is also a very important method for card masters to practice.
It is estimated that the people of the Bai family also want to use the power of the Moon God to help them understand “meaning” and even “divine power”.
That’s why [Moon] was sent to Thieves City.
Ji Xun hinted that he didn’t want to be disturbed, so Amelia explained some precautions and left directly.
The collection of books in the house, as well as the fifty-two magical mysteries, seemed to be within reach without paying any price.
If this were any other place, it would be a wealth that I would never even dream of.
Ji Xun personally experienced the treatment of the Silver Moon cultists. To be honest, if he hadn’t had his own opportunity, it would be hard not to be tempted.
There is no shortage of physical enjoyment, spiritual wealth, and the extraordinary secrets are enough, so what else is there for?
At this moment, Ji Xun suddenly realized that there was a big problem.
Without anyone else, Ji Xun was the only one in the corner of the bookshelf on the second floor of the White Pigeon Church.
He looked at the classics on the bookshelves around him. The covers were all very old, and many of them had coats of arms on them.
It looks like it was collected in the homes of the great nobles.
Strategic materials that were once considered prohibited items have finally reappeared in the public eye.
However, Ji Xun is now at the sixth level, and most of the classics are of little use to him.
He originally came here for the “Sky Moon God Thought”, and since the [Moon] is here, it’s perfect.
Ji Xun sat cross-legged on the table mat, looked at the moon hanging from the ceiling and began to meditate.
His thoughts fell into concentration, and the moonlight poured on his face.
Every beam of light seemed to carry the whisper of the moon god, and an indescribable spiritual world opened the door to him.
Ji Xun had visualized the [Moon] before when he was in Innocence City.
But at that time, my level was too low, and I could only comprehend superficial knowledge.
Now at the sixth level, the height of the law level made him see a very high level at once.
Enlightenment is also constantly refreshed.
“When you observe the exclusive relic, your mental power will be +0.01.”
“You gain understanding by observing the relic moon, and the sky moon god wants to gain proficiency +33.”
“You are immune to the taint of faith directed at the moon god Arachne.”
“.”
I have to say, this [Moon] is really the perfect tool to assist in spiritual cultivation!
This relic is like a radiation source. As long as you get close enough, you will be infected with radiation even if you do nothing.
Ji Xun just sat there, his mental energy rising slowly.
You must know that when he first came into contact with the moon, the moon god Arachne had not yet recovered, and a few low-level believers were secretly causing trouble. The moon’s divinity was also very weak at that time;
But now this old god has hundreds of millions of believers, and the power of faith gathered has reached an incredible level.
Now this sect’s sacred object has become a treasure that can make even top card masters sink!
Correspondingly, the pollution is also very serious.
Ji Xun even speculated that this kind of pollution could not even be detected by high-level card masters, and could quietly attract evil.
He himself didn’t care at all.
Instead, he used his advanced “multi-tasking” ability to assist with visualization. A dozen of them simultaneously comprehended the magical and mysterious method of “Sky Moon Divine Thought”, which was extremely efficient.
Just like that, a week flew by.
Ji Xun goes to the White Pigeon Temple every day to learn the secrets.
He showed the caution that a normal card master should have.
The time spent there was not long in the first few days, but then it gradually increased.
By the seventh day, he basically stayed in the manor and never left the house.
One is to learn as much as possible about magical mysteries;
The second is that he feels more and more that the crisis is approaching.
It is safest to hide in the Silver Moon Sect’s base in the Thief City.
The results during this period were also very surprising.
The height of the law brought by the rank is directly reflected in the understanding of the skills. With the blessing of [Moon], the proficiency level of “Songyue Shenxiang” skyrocketed from LV1 to LV3.
Moreover, in Ji Xun’s own attribute board, the increase in mental power gained through seven days of visualization is equivalent to several months of daily practice.
Overall, the rewards are huge.
This is still the result of him not being pious enough and being secretive and wary of being discovered.
After Ji Xun experienced it, he finally understood why the strength of the believers of the old gods he had encountered soared so fast.
The meaning of “piety” is to receive gifts from gods, and gods can use their knowledge to bless believers.
That kind of understanding ability is many times higher than that of a normal human card master.
The more pious, the stronger.
In recent times, more and more high-level card masters are interested in the Silver Moon Sect, and the White Pigeon Temple has also welcomed batches of newcomers.
But almost all of them, like Ji Xun, did not leave after trying.
Gradually there were more and more people in the study.
With more people, Ji Xun would have been even more inconspicuous.
What’s more, he also deliberately avoided some flaws that might be sensed by the moon god.
But there are also experts in the Silver Moon Sect.
There is nothing wrong with high-level card masters having firm beliefs and not being easily contaminated.
But if it lasts for a long time without being contaminated, it will be difficult not to make people suspicious.
Especially in the White Dove Holy Church, they are the focus of the sect’s senior leaders. If they are devout believers, they must receive the blessing of the Moon God.
Ji Xun had been waiting for so many days, but he never dared to pray directly to the Moon God.
So judging from this, there is no need to doubt that he has been targeted.
Ji Xun even felt that the other party had determined his identity through some clues he deliberately left behind.
But even so, Ji Xun didn’t panic at all.
He still comes to the temple to practice as usual every day.
Because he was sure that no matter whether it was the Bai family or the Yinyuejia sect, even if they discovered him as a “spy”, they would not take action immediately.
Instead, they will be wary of some external factors.
For example: Qin Rushi.
In that case, some other means of rounding up would need to be deployed.
Or, they may also be curious, what is Ji Xun doing here?
Just like a rabbit falling into a trap, the hunter is not in a hurry to catch it, but is more interested in what the rabbit is going to do.
Coupled with the “military information letters” that Ji Xun deliberately leaked before, and some confusing behaviors, the smarter the person, the more cautious they will be.
Facts have proved that the other party was in no hurry to take action.
Ji Xun felt that this subtle stalemate could probably last a few more days.
He wants to wait.
When the danger predicted by my mother-in-law came, I happened to be still here.
It turned out as he expected.
Day eight.
After feeding Ivan, Ji Xun practiced in the study as usual.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes from meditation, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes: “Here he comes!”
Sensing something, Ji Xun frowned and thought to himself: “How did those guys do it? Move the ‘replacement doll’ outside the city?”
Because he had guessed that the people from the Southern Continent were here for Ivan, and Reni’s line of magicians was proficient in all kinds of puppets, Ji Xun made a [Stand-in Doll] using Ivan’s biological characteristics.
This kind of doll has a wonderful effect, that is, within a certain range, it can cause mysterious spells to misjudge that it is the real body.
And just now, Ji Xun found that the induction of the doll he placed two blocks away suddenly disappeared!
It was not destroyed, but transferred!
It was only when I traveled dozens of kilometers away in an instant that I felt like I was “disappearing”.
“Is it also a space ability?”
Ji Xun’s eyes flickered, and he didn’t want to understand what methods the enemy used.
But there is no need to think about this at this time.
The puppet disappeared, and it was confirmed that the enemy was coming.
You can’t hide. Thinking of this, Ji Xun woke up Ivan in his pocket, letting her reveal some spatial fluctuations and attract the enemy.
Then Ji Xun stood up, looked at the [Moon] on the ceiling, and jumped up.
In full view of everyone, he grabbed the moon directly in his hand.
Everyone in the study room was stunned.
Card masters who can understand the mysteries of spiritual magic in the temple are more or less devout to the moon god, and no one will do such a blasphemous thing.
Therefore, the relics are not too tightly defended.
But if you really want to take it away, it’s impossible.
Almost at the same time, several people wearing moon robes appeared in the room out of thin air and surrounded Ji Xun on the spot.
In addition to the Silver Moon Archbishop of the Thief City, Ji Xun also knew an old acquaintance, Bai Wei from the Bai family.
Seeing this scene, several people looked suspicious, what is this guy going to do?
As Ji Xun expected, they discovered Ji Xun’s anomaly two or three days ago, and then spent another day determining his identity.
Although they guessed that Ji Xun might be here for the mysterious magic, they never expected that this would happen.
Grab [Moon] directly?
No matter what, you shouldn’t use such clumsy theft methods.
It was because of this abnormal behavior that people from the Bai family and the Silver Moon Sect did not dare to act rashly.
Bai Wei looked at Ji Xun, his shrewd fox-like eyes full of confusion at this moment.
He endured it and finally said, “What do you mean?”
Ji Xun, the person involved, was caught stealing sacred objects and was not guilty at all.
Instead, he grinned his neat white teeth, showed a bright and familiar smile towards Bai Wei, and said hello: “Brother Bai Wei, long time no see.”
As soon as he said this, the archbishop and others looked at him, and then glanced at Bai Wei from the corner of their eyes, thinking that they were really acquaintances.
“.”
Bai Wei frowned when he heard this.
brother?
Who and you are brothers.
At the same time, there was a thump in my heart.
The joking smile on Ji Xun’s face made him inexplicably sense that a crisis was coming.
But Bai Wei racked his brains and couldn’t figure out what danger this guy in front of him could bring to him?
Now that Ji Thief City is heavily armed, not to mention the guy in front of him, even if Qin Ru comes again, he may not be able to escape unscathed.
Where does this guy get his confidence?
