Xal'atath wasn't lying.
The Ancient Gods are not originally Shadow Gods. What they are best at has always been the power of corrosion and the magic of flesh and blood.
Shadow, holy light, arcane energy, and elemental power can all be absorbed and used by it.
Just because these ancient gods came to Azeroth and were brutally suppressed by the Titans, the elemental plane was sealed, the arcane energy had a guardian, and the Naaru, the ultimate form of the holy light, paid attention to the world, so the ancient gods unanimously Choose the Forgotten Power of Shadow.
The truth is that simple, if you don’t occupy the high ground of strength, it will be occupied by the enemy.
As the losing side of the war, the imprisoned Old God could only choose to hide and slowly accumulate the power of shadow, a power despised by the Titans.
Xal'atath, however, had no such concerns.
Because it has been sucked dry.
Whether it is N'Zoth, C'Thun, Yogg-Saron, or even the insignificant G'huun, these ancient gods living in the world all retain their own bodies, and those huge bodies gather even greater power.
But Xal'atas is just a dagger now, and Carlos used Stormka to suppress him without mercy for almost a month.
To put it simply, Xal'atath's accumulated shadow power has been drained away, and it is now a blank slate attribute.
You can't even steal the Holy Light, but you still have the nerve to call yourself the Ancient God?
Innocent……
Xal'atath can not only utilize the power of Holy Light, but can even complete the conversion between Holy Light and Shadow.
In a sense, the Old Gods have a striking similarity in racial characteristics to the Naaru.
But because of this, Xal'atath hates using the power of the Light, because it will attract the attention of the naaru.
If it attracts the attention of some radical and militant naru, it will really be a cool song.
But the conditions offered by Ner'zhul were really good, and the flesh and blood origin sent by the human mage just now had another mystery, which made Xal'atath determined to become a magician.
What Xal'atath had to do was simple, open a spiritual path in the Holy Light, and link the spirits of Arthas and Ner'zhul together in full view of the public.
In the process of this kind of coquettish operation, there was also the help of Kel'Thuzad, who was hidden in the gap in Alsace's mind. It can be said that it was coquettish but not chaotic. It seemed to be pulling chestnuts from the fire, but in fact it was as stable as an old dog.
The real difficulty was playing tricks under Kel'Thuzad's nose.
That's right, Xal'atath decided to become a multi-faceted spy.
Ner'zhul promised it the freedom Xal'atath desired.
It is unknown which brother or sister promised its benefits and Xal'atath also wanted it.
In this case, Xal'atath decided that I want them all!
Who was not a god before?
Let's go!
In the eyes of others, Arthas held the blade of Xalatath. The Dark Empire, and the blazing holy light burst out from the prince's body, as if penetrating the boundaries of time and space, and the majestic and peaceful halo illuminated people's hearts.
Arthas inadvertently cast Holy Light Judgment under the guidance of Xalatath, and all the souls present began to examine their own hearts under the majestic holy light.
Even Kel'Thuzad was no exception.
It's now!
Taking advantage of Kel'Thuzad's distracted moment, Xal'atath implanted a seed of spiritual suggestion deep into Arthas' soul.
Damn it! What's this?
While Xal'atath was operating all this, he naturally touched that spiritual seed, and then the entire dagger was damaged.
This is definitely not the spiritual seed of the two idiots N'Zoth and Yog-Salon.
Under the effect of the judgment of the Holy Light, all souls illuminated by the Holy Light will examine their truest desires.
When implanting the spiritual seed, Xal'atath felt the emotions contained in that seed--dedication, fraternity, sacrifice...
This is definitely not the quality that an ancient god should have.
What the hell!
In an instant, Xal'atath suddenly felt that the so-called benefits were not easy to obtain.
After Kel'Thuzad was transformed into a lich, the transformation of his life form brought about a huge increase in strength. His firm will allowed him to quickly get rid of the shocking effect of the Judgment of Holy Light.
Perhaps because he despised Xal'atath, or because he was in awe of the Holy Light, Kel'Thuzad did not suspect that Xal'atath was up to something. The Lich just urged Xal'atath to help him quickly and break through the gap between Arthas and the witch. The demon king’s spiritual link channel.
"Who are you?"
Alsace felt a great sense of spiritual joy and self-satisfaction at this time. Although he was a bit scumbag on emotional issues, His Royal Highness was essentially a good boy. The education he received since childhood established a moral high ground for him, so after accepting After the mental torture, Alsace felt cute.
Well, it’s the feeling that Koro-sensei stabbed his father and fought against the Son of Light and Darkness, but I knew I was a good boy.
Don't ask, just ask because it feels great.
"I am the betrayer, the sufferer, the binder, the savior."
"Who are you?"
"I am the nightmare of your past, your hope in the present, and your guide to the future."
"who are you?"
"I am the Lich King."
Ner'zhul was not pretending to be a criminal, nor did he mean to show off his rhetoric. He induced Arthas to ask three questions just to stabilize his spiritual channel.
Then, Ner'zhul had no intention of brainwashing His Highness the Prince through words. He went directly to HD.
Although Alsace was a paladin who had received a certificate of completion, and was relatively strong-willed compared to ordinary people, but compared to the vast mental power of the Lich King, he was as fragile as a child.
So, with the help of Kel'Thuzad's soul power, Arthas watched the Lich King's carefully selected memories.
He saw the source of suffering, saw the hidden crisis, saw the powerlessness of mankind, and personally felt the monstrous evil flames of the Burning Legion and the undercurrent of the Ancient Gods.
However, even with the help of Kel'Thuzad, the influx of huge amounts of knowledge still made Arthas mentally confused.
"Northrend, Frostmourne, the key to saving the world, we will be one."
In order to protect the integrity of Arthas' soul, Kel'Thuzad exhausted his soul power and fell into a brief silence.
Then Arthas woke up.
He restrained the Holy Light and said to everyone with a smile.
"Look, I purified this Blade of the Dark Empire."
Xal'atath was so exhausted that he didn't even bother to talk. He closed his eyes on the handle and pretended to be dead.
"Uncle is so awesome!"
Alphonse shouted excitedly.
No accident happened, and Jia Liya breathed a sigh of relief.
The tour of the treasure house ends here.
Between the dinner parties, the faces were full of smiles, the night dew was deep, and there was no intention of sleeping.
Alsace lay quietly on the bed, quietly experiencing today's bizarre experience, and finally couldn't help but ask.
"who are you?"
"I am Elune."
