YM778.TV Chapter 818 It's Time To Leave
Once that happened, this master would leave the Spirit world for good, rise up from this low realm and go up to the higher one, claiming his past life.
That explained to William why spirits were this adamant at helping masters and monsters, and he also realised why such an issue was something very important to spirits.
As for why there was a conflict and difference in view between the spirits, it was explained in other series of scrolls. William learnt that not all spirits shared the same viewpoint about what happened to them. Many held grievances and bloody vengeance towards the higher power that punished them.
As they couldn\'t touch this power anymore, they had to vent their rage over the masters and monsters of this world. This formed a faction that wasn\'t small, not weak, and they were behind most if not all of the bad things happening to the worlds, people, and monsters living within them.
William didn\'t exclude the possibility of them being behind what happened to the Origin world in the first place, being responsible for the Fall.
There was another faction who wanted to return to live in the higher world, enjoy their freedom, seeing this as a prison and they were just spending their sentence period here.
Yet this faction wasn\'t united. According to what William guessed from the scrolls, masters weren\'t the only beings getting punished and suffered from such fate, monsters did.
"I think spirits which came from masters are supportive to humans, and those who came from monsters support their kin…" William muttered while thinking about this issue.
Aside from these two sub-factions, there was another which didn\'t care about anything else but to get their goal done. They didn\'t care about which or whom they\'d support and cared only about their potential and chances in breaking through the shackles of this world.
"That black fox… I bet he belongs to this opportunistic faction," William recalled his first meeting with the fox, and what it said back then, "but that doesn\'t explain what those shining stars were…"
He still didn\'t get a firm clue about the true identity of these stars that interfered in his last meeting with the black fox. His current best guess was that they belonged to the Chaos faction, the name he decided to call over these hostile spirits to this realm.
What puzzled him was that this didn\'t follow what other scrolls said. According to other scrolls, the two factions, Chaos and Order, were fighting against each other, ending up with lots of deadly clashes and conflicts.
Yet no faction had an upper hand or control over the other. Yet from what he felt back then, William was sure these stars got some sort of authority and power over spirits, over his black fox spirit at least. And the black fox seemed to be afraid of them, had nothing to do against their power, and it also didn\'t agree on what they wanted.
"I learnt a lot, but still can\'t find an answer to this question," he sighed, while gathering up the scrolls on the ground, "I know this world acts as a grand portal, linking all the worlds together. It\'s like a remnant of the Origin world, stitching everything scattered around and keeping the worlds safe…"
William read this in one scroll, reading about how important this middle world was. It didn\'t just work as a portal linking other worlds together, but also as a keeper for the integrity of the entire messy structure of tiny and outer worlds.
According to that scroll, if this world ended up destroyed, then bad things would follow for other worlds. Perhaps the outer world was well protected, yet the tiny worlds wouldn\'t survive this.
"I recall feeling the power of this world going berserk, something that\'s common to see in pocket worlds on the verge of collapsing…"
William recalled this vague feeling when he first came to this world. He felt like this world\'s spirit power was acting hostile, acting the same as power coming from worlds on the verge of collapsing.
But when he arrived here, he found the world intact and nothing was wrong. So he forgot about this feeling, and never thought about it again.
"If so… Then those spirits belonging to the Chaos faction are working on this world for a long time already… Don\'t tell me the seal I got before had something to do with this… The inability of masters here to use their spirits is linked to this…"
William knew that the link between masters and their spirits was linked to the access of spirits to the world. If masters couldn\'t summon their spirits, that meant this link was severed. And that was bad news indeed.
Without the Order faction, no one was there to stop the insane spirits from destroying this world. And if this world went down, lots of horrifying events and tragedies.
But he also knew that to take down such a world, things weren\'t that easy. As this world acted like the axis which held everything together, it was backed up by power coming from all the worlds around.
To take such a world down, it\'d require more than just severing the connection between spirits and masters here. In addition to that, they needed lots of time and effort to do so.
William didn\'t know what the current progress of the Chaos faction was in destroying this world. But from the current situation of the world, the stable spirit power and calmness that prevailed over most of the regions here, he guessed it was still early for this world to go down.
"I have to go to check the three places now," After resting for a few days, William decided to put an end to his adventure in this world. He already got all the pocket worlds he wanted, the scrolls he copied, and got nothing else to do here.
