The middle-aged man's voice did not come again, and Artoris only saw the sword in front of her, flying rapidly. Dots of fluorescence fluctuate on the sword, outlining one beautiful arc after another in the sky.
The two of them forgot the questions in their minds for a moment and focused on everything in front of them. Gradually, Artolis seemed to see some clues. The sword dance was not chaotic. Every arc that appeared in the sky would be perfectly embedded in the arc that had been sketched out in advance. Rather than saying that the sword is dancing around in vain, it is better to say that it is painting something.
The speed of the sword dance was getting faster and faster, making the two of them dizzy when they saw the sword shadows constantly intertwining in the sky. The next moment, the chaos of swords suddenly stopped, and the sky suddenly bloomed with a bright light. The two of them were shocked to discover that what the sword drew was an extremely huge five-pointed star array. Looking at the sky, the two people's eyes were full of disbelief.
The next moment, the five-pointed star array changed, and blue-gold light shot out from the array. The blue-gold light penetrated the clouds and went straight up, with an unstoppable force, straight towards the sky-reaching light pillar.
The moment the blue-gold light hit the light pillar, the world turned white. Artolis felt that all the sound sources around her disappeared for a moment, and she could not even hear her own screams. At the same time, Artolis felt that the scene around her was changing, and suddenly a huge amount of information poured into her mind. A large amount of strange information was poured into her at once, and Artolis suddenly felt a splitting headache.
But this feeling only existed for a moment and then disappeared. The whiteness in front of my eyes gradually faded away, and the sound of birdsong and wind blowing leaves came from my ears. When Artolis opened her eyes, she found herself in a primeval forest.
How is this going? Artoris looked at her hands, and the sudden influx of information was now understood. At this moment, she felt an indescribable magical feeling. When she turned around, Gawain was standing next to her. He also behaved in the same way as her. It seemed that she was not the only one who felt it.
A voice came into the minds of the two of them: "How do you feel?" The voice of a middle-aged man. Artolis felt heat coming from the back of her hand. When she looked at it, she found that there was a sword-shaped pattern on the back of her hand. Suddenly the sword-shaped pattern glowed brightly, and the next moment a blue-gold sword appeared out of thin air in front of Atoris. Atoris grabbed it with her hand and caught the sword steadily.
The blade of the sword in Artolis' hand shone brightly, and the vague appearance of a middle-aged man was projected from the sword.
"Welcome to the Phantom World! My name is Tris, the sword spirit of the Sword of Victory, and I will also be your guide." The man's tone was calm and majestic, but from the voice, Artolis could It is certain that this person is the sword spirit from before.
Before Artolis could speak, Gawain spoke first, "Is this the Phantom World?" Gawain looked surprised, and Artolis was surprised. Judging from Gawain's tone, could it be that he knew something?
"What is the Phantom World?"
Seeing that Artoris didn't understand why, Gawain began to tell: "Actually, I'm not sure, I just heard from the older generation in the village. In fact, we have always lived in an apocalyptic plane, and this plane has been It’s called the human world. The so-called Mo Dharma Plane refers to the thin spiritual power of that plane. For this reason, everything in the Mo Dharma Plane can only grow, develop and evolve in the normal direction. In addition to the human world, there are countless Planes, some planes have equally thin spiritual power, but I heard that most planes have very abundant spiritual power.”
"What is spiritual power?" Artolis asked.
Gawain replied to her: "I don't know much about this, but I heard that people who absorb spiritual power will have extraordinary abilities. Some people speculate that those magicians are some of the people who have absorbed part of the spiritual power."
Suddenly remembering something, Artolis slapped her head, "After you said that special abilities come from absorbing spiritual power, then aren't you one of them?"
"Maybe so."
At this time, Tris, who had been left out in the cold from the beginning, spoke up, "Your understanding is correct, but what you said is only superficial."
oh? Only then did the two realize that there was another person beside them, oh no, it was a sword spirit named Tris. Tris said: "The human world is a small plane. Tens of thousands of years ago, there was also abundant spiritual power. However, due to unknown factors, the spiritual power flowed towards another world, and finally ended up like this. . On the contrary, that world has been baptized by a large amount of spiritual power, and the world is constantly evolving and improving. With the joint efforts of the powerful people in that world, the laws of heaven have been created for all the worlds."
"That world is the Phantom World!" Gawain added. Well, Tris nodded. "Except for the Moment Plane, all the heavens and worlds are affected by the laws of heaven in the phantom world. All living beings will undergo qualitative changes after absorbing spiritual power. Usually, the more dense the spiritual power condensed in the living body, the overall or The ability in a certain aspect will be stronger than others. In order to allow the strong to be proved by the laws of heaven, the heavens and the world have evolved a symbol to express each person's strength-spiritual power level."
"Spiritual power level?" Listening to Tris' description, the two of them were confused.
The man waved his sleeves, and a magical scene happened in the next moment. Pictures appeared two meters in front of the two people. Artoris had never seen such a scene before. She touched the picture in front of her out of curiosity, but it turned out to be empty. Her hand just passed through the three-dimensional picture. Artoris was surprised and wanted to scratch again, but pain immediately came from her head.
Gawain looked at it and smacked his tongue, it hurt so much. The hilt of the holy sword fell on Artolis's head, "Ahem, please listen carefully!" Artolis held her head and returned to Gawain with an aggrieved look.
After dealing with the naughty children, Tris went on to say that the content was roughly as follows: The level of spiritual power is divided into nine stages. Each stage will have different manifestations of strength, and rank suppression is the key to this definition. If you encounter an opponent who is one level higher than you, the suppression caused by the level will prevent you from exerting 100% of your strength, and the average suppression is 50%. In other words, assuming that the opponent is one level higher than you, you are equivalent to facing two of his strengths. By analogy, every time the opponent moves up a level, your strength will be reduced again.
Artoris sounded surprisingly serious, but more out of curiosity. When Tris finished speaking, she asked: "You just said that we are now in the phantom world, so can we also absorb spiritual power?"
Tris nodded. "If I guessed correctly, you should have felt some strange information entering your minds when I first brought you into the phantom world."
