"Caron, this is all the inventory of 'Migration Road Signs' I currently have here. Teams in other urban areas may still have them, but there won't be too many."
"So, you now have four choices."
Fan Ning looked at the symbols on these drawings curiously and asked, "What do they mean?"
Viadlin explained: “Although the circular outer rings of the symbols all look the same, if you look closely, you will see that they are actually made of arcs of different lengths and superimposed in different ways. They reflect the movement of something.
The spatial coordinates of…”
"It's like a QR code." Fan Ning thinks this is a more vivid understanding.
"The internal main pattern is the referent of the witness, and they have two ways."
"The first is a specific reference, which is to directly engrave the symbol corresponding to the witness!"
"In occultism, it is believed that above the dome of the Hui Tower at the core of Yiyong, under the glow, is the residence of the Lord of Witnesses, so exploring in Yiyong is more likely to attract their attention than in the surface of the world. Witness
The referent of the person serves as a secret contract, similar to the principle of constructing a secret ritual."
"The second type is a vague reference, which does not engrave the specific symbol of the Lord of Witness, but the symbol of a certain 'phase'!"
Fan Ning wondered: "Then what's the difference between the two methods? Can the symbol of the phase also be engraved on it to form a secret contract with the Lord of Witness?"
"Of course, the Lord of Witnesses is originally in charge of phases, and some even control multiple phases. Both methods have their own advantages. Engraving a specific Lord of Witnesses can resonate more accurately with the several phases that He controls;
Although the symbol engraved with a certain phase is single, we can have varying degrees of secret understanding effects for the different witnesses involved in that phase."
"As long as the coordinates reflected by the road signs correspond to the pointing witnesses, that's fine. Road signs of unknown origin should be used with caution to avoid danger."
"Okay, it's a bit confusing. I barely understood it. It still needs time to digest." Fan Ning smiled bitterly.
"The study of hidden knowledge and secret rituals is enough to burn up the inspiration of a knowledgeable person for ten lifetimes." Viadrin said a meaningful word.
"Now please make your choice."
The first road sign has a sunken circle in the middle and a flaming radial shape around it.
"This is the symbol of the Lord of Witness's 'Unfallen Fire', which originates from the Holy Kingdom of Janus in the Western Continent: the true god of the Holy Sun Church. The divine phase he controls is 'candle'. This phase is related to the spirit.
Passion, art, and flame are related, and are the laws of inspiration and enlightenment. Nature has a closer connection with radiance and movement."
The second one's symbol is a tower with a crack.
"This is the symbol of the Lord of Witnesses, the Tower Builder. He does not belong to the three major righteous churches, but the Guidance School has studied him more. The divine phase he controls is the 'key', and this phase is related to matter, reason, and science.
, related to lightning, is the law of shaping and dismantling.”
The symbol of the third picture is a hexagonal fractal snowflake.
"This is a vaguely referenced road sign. The divine phase represented by the symbol is 'Desolation'. This phase is related to seclusion, memory, deliberation, and frost. It is the law of death and silence. It originated from the Kingdom of Lydia in the Western Continent.
The Lingyin Discipline Society, one of the three major righteous churches, believes in the 'Raven', and the phase it governs is 'Huang'."
The symbol of the fourth picture is a palm-up hand extending from the liquid.
"This is also a vaguely referenced road sign. The divine phase represented by the symbol is 'pool'. This phase is related to eating, pain, fertility, and blood. It is the law of senses and temptation. It originated from the United Principality of Feton in the Southern Continent.
Fanghui Temple, one of the three major righteous churches, believes in 'Fanghui Poet', and the aspect he controls is 'Chi'."
Fan Ning didn't think much and stretched out his hand to the first moving signpost of "Unfallen Fire" because the phase of "candle" is related to inspiration and art.
But he suddenly thought of a very crucial question and took his hand back.
“Are road signs disposable?”
"Yes and no." Viadrin replied, "You will understand if you know the origin of these road signs."
"I just said that the road sign points to a certain area in Yiyong, and under normal circumstances it will have some value, but have you ever thought about how these areas were discovered?"
"Has someone been there?" Fan Ning tried to guess.
"That's right." Viadlin nodded.
"But if you want to return to the waking world from the migration, you need to go back to where you came from. More than 80% of people who are 'lost' do not find their way back before their inspiration is exhausted."
Fan Ning broke into a cold sweat after hearing this.
This Yiyong is not a blessed place at all. Every exploration may be a journey of death. The tone of the world's will is indeed mysterious and dangerous.
"So if there is a new area ahead, but you are not sure to continue, you can use special materials or methods to make the coordinates and phases into road signs and bring them back to the waking world. Then this place can become a new starting point, so that you can search again.
Chance."
"How can things that are being moved be brought back to reality?" Fan Ning asked in surprise.
Although he accepted these implicit knowledge about the nature of the world, in his inertial understanding, he always felt that migration was a special area where dreams extended, which was different from the real world.
"Yes, I said before that the appearance of the world and the will together constitute the real world. But the ability to bring the transferred matter back to the waking world needs to be promoted to the fourth level, that is, only those who have knowledge in the middle level can have it. You
We will learn about it later.”
Viadlin pointed to the road signs on the table, "So, these are reliable road signs that our members recorded and brought back. When they are used again, they need to be activated with the radiant spirit liquid of the corresponding phase and resonate with the migration."
"Brilliant Spiritual Liquid?"
"When I took you to take a peek at Yiyong, I used the 'key' phase of the radiant spirit liquid. It was purple. Did you forget it?"
"I remembered."
"Going back to your question, the road signs will naturally become ineffective after they are used up. However, the user can still recall the characteristic aura of the astral entrance and re-enter in a clear dream. Although there is forgetfulness or confusion, they usually remember four or five kinds at the same time.
The characteristics of road signs are not problematic.
"Be careful when using road signs of unknown origin. Road signs obtained from transactions with strangers may not be reliable unless there is a certain notarization ceremony. You can flexibly grasp this based on experience in the future."
Fan Ning nodded: "So I can continue to use other road signs in the future, as long as I have enough inspiration, right? There is no question of 'first' choice."
Viadlin took two more sips of sweet tea: "No, you can indeed use other ones in the future, but for those who know, the first time is very important."
"When you enter the migration in different phases, you will see different colors of the world's will. The phase you choose for the first time will determine your spirit's initial perception of the migration."
Fan Ning asked: "Does this mean that I won't be able to obtain hidden knowledge and inspiration from other phases in the future?"
"No, under the premise of maintaining normal sanity, there is no problem for knowledgeable people to focus on studying the hidden knowledge and inspiration of two or three phases. No more than three. But in the future, any perception of migration that you will have will be based on the first
This time is for reference. You know, there is a word called preconception. We generally call this perception the 'light of first acquaintance'."
"And more importantly, for the spirit illuminated by the 'Light of First Recognition', the glow will give him 'a gift' - this is related to the chosen witness or phase at that time, and there is also some randomness."
"A gift?"
"That's right, it's the first mysterious power you control."
"For example, what kind of things will there be?" Fan Ning was very curious about this, "Flying to the sky and escaping from the earth? Injuring people from the air? Blasting the wall of the house with one punch? Breaking the life limit?"
Scenes from various fantasy novels he had read before came to his mind.
Viadlin shook his head helplessly: "Have you read too many legendary novels with magical elements on the market?"
"Knowing people are only good at hidden knowledge and inspiration. Their abilities can rarely harm people directly, and their bodies are still as fragile as paper. But they can use some mysterious and weird methods to make ordinary people collapse, or they can collapse with one shot in actual combat.
The opponent’s head.”
"Caron, don't underestimate this gift. You have to know that for most knowledgeable people, the acquisition of this kind of direct ability may only happen once in a lifetime. If you want to obtain it next time, it is said that you have to go through a certain
When you enter the Taoist Gate and enter the Hui Pagoda at the core of Shifting, you will be promoted to the 'Snow One'."
"What level of knowledge is a profound person?" Fan Ning heard this word several times.
"Those who have knowledge are at the low level from the first to the third level, the middle level from the fourth to the sixth level, and the high level from the seventh to the ninth level. The enlightened ones are the realms after breaking through the ninth level and then above. The number of strong people at this level is extremely large.
Very few, the strength is very terrifying."
Fan Ning nodded: "I understand, thank you."
His eyes flashed, he thought for a while and then spoke:
