Inside the grand hall filled with dark gold mist, Aaron sat upon the throne. Just as he was about to extend his spirituality to probe the four figures within the dark gold light spots below, he gently pinched his brow. "No, I must act cautiously, not impulsively. I need to think things through thoroughly, at least eliminate some hidden dangers first."
He looked up at the chaotic eye at the top of the throne behind him, then surveyed the area around the throne. With a raise of his hand, the dark gold mist surged, lifting four items and bringing them closer to Aaron.
They were a ring inlaid with a white gem resembling an eye, a staff entirely golden, a chaotic semi-transparent cubic book, and an ancient silver-gray ring. These were the gifts left by God Almighty and Celestial Worthy during Aaron's fusion with the Nation of Disorder.
Aaron took a deep breath, his spirituality spreading out. He mobilized the power of the Sefirah, causing the dark gold mist to fluctuate violently. After preparing for potential attacks, Aaron extended his spirituality towards the four items floating around him and the chaotic eye at the top of the throne behind him.
Moments later, Aaron opened his eyes with a look of shock, muttering, "As expected of the split personalities of the Original Creator, Pillar-level Great Old Ones, their generosity is truly immense. Is this what it feels like to be blessed by RNGesus?"
-----------------
Eye of Chaos (Assimilated): The Uniqueness of an Outer Deity pathway that the Son of Chaos was attracted to and infiltrated into the Original Barrier.
Ability: Blurs the boundaries of rules, Magnifying or diminishing the effects brought by Beyonder abilities, including but not limited to damage, authority, loss of control, and madness. It can affect True Gods of a single pathway at most; it is ineffective against True Gods of multiple pathways and Great Old Ones, and will cause backlash.
Side effects: Cannot be used by those below the Angel level. After each use, passively endure a rule backlash of the same level as the affected target. (i.e., using the Eye of Chaos to affect an Angel will result in enduring a rule backlash at the Angel level.)
-----------------
Ring of Wisdom (Semi-sealed): Formed primarily from the Beyonder Characteristic of the White Tower pathway Sequence 2 Wisdom Angel, including the Beyonder Characteristics of the White Tower pathway Sequences 3-9, fused with some dark gold mist.
Ability: 1. Imitation: Due to extensive knowledge, capable of recognizing, discerning, remembering, and imitating abilities that have been seen. In a semi-sealed state, it can only analyze and imitate abilities below the Demigod level (Sequence 4), up to 3 types. It can analyze and imitate 1 type of Demigod-level (Sequence 4) ability. All successfully imitated abilities can be used repeatedly.
The greater the difference in Sequence level between the holder of the Ring of Wisdom and the analyzed target, the higher the probability of failure in analysis and imitation, and the worse the effect of the imitated ability. The smaller the difference in Sequence level with the analyzed target, the better the effect of the ability after successful imitation. Abilities below the Demigod level can be restored up to 90%, and Demigod-level (Sequence 4) abilities can be restored up to 70%.
2. Insight: Gain insight into the rules of the world and the mysteries of fate. In a semi-sealed state, for those below Demigod, it can help the holder gain insight into the secrets, including weaknesses, contained within targets no more than two Sequence levels higher than themselves. For those above Demigod, this is weakened to targets no more than one Sequence level higher; it is ineffective against Angels. When worn, encountering danger will compulsively trigger a prophecy, providing an early warning in the form of a vision, once per month.
Negative effects: After each use, all creatures within a 1-kilometer radius centered on the Ring of Wisdom will be affected, hearing sounds they shouldn't hear and seeing sights they shouldn't see, lasting for two hours.
-----------------
Staff of Sun Chaser (Semi-sealed): Formed primarily from the Beyonder Characteristic of the Sun pathway Sequence 2 Lightseeker, including the Beyonder Characteristics of the Sun pathway Sequences 3-9, fused with some dark gold mist.
Ability: 1. Unshadowed Domain: Radiates clear light, transforming the surrounding area into a domain without shadows or evil. Can defend against attacks from darkness and evil.
2. Unshadowed Spear: In a semi-sealed state, accumulates brilliance based on the spirituality consumed, capable of unleashing a spear of extremely pure, scorching white light comparable to a Sequence 3 attack, which then expands into a miniature sun capable of illuminating a city.
Negative effects: Requires drawing the holder's blood after each use. Holding it for extended periods will cause the Beyonder Characteristic to compulsively detach from the body, accompanied by a strong burning sensation.
-----------------
Book of Chaos: Formed from the Sequence 1 Beyonder Characteristic peeled off from the Outer Deity Son of Chaos, fused with some dark gold mist.
Ability: Blurs the boundaries of rules, Magnifying or diminishing the effects brought by Beyonder abilities, including but not limited to damage, authority, loss of control, and madness. Ineffective against the backlash brought by the Chaos pathway and the True God level.
Negative effects: Directly face mental corruption from an Outer Deity once.
-----------------
Ring of Mysteries: Formed from one Beyonder Characteristic of the Seer pathway Sequence 3 Scholar of Yore, one Beyonder Characteristic of the Marauder pathway Sequence 3 mentor of Deceit , and one Beyonder Characteristic of the Apprentice pathway Sequence 3 Wanderer, fused with some dark gold mist.
Ability: 1. Summon images from the holder's historical void, which can be people or objects. The more detailed and accurate the understanding of the relevant history and objects, the greater the probability of success and the longer the duration. Only one historical projection can be summoned at a time.
2. Steal a Beyonder ability and make it one's own. The greater the difference in level, the higher the probability of successful theft.
3. The holder can roam the Spirit World and can record 3 Demigod-level Beyonder abilities and 5 Beyonder abilities below the Demigod level. The higher the Sequence, the greater the probability of failure. The recorded ability disappears after use and must be recorded again.
Negative effects: Compulsively chant the honorific name of the Lord of Mysteries at any unpredictable time, accompanied by ravings and intense corruption.
-----------------
After the initial shock and joy, Aaron realized something was wrong.
"What does 'semi-sealed state' mean? And only the two Beyonder Characteristics left by God Almighty are in a semi-sealed state. The ones left by Celestial Worthy are not sealed."
"However, this is understandable. After all, items formed from Angel-level Beyonder Characteristics can be called Sealed Artifacts Grade 0 in the seven major orthodox churches and various secret organizations."
"And neither the Ring of Wisdom nor the Staff of Sun Chaser clearly reaches this level in terms of abilities or negative effects. The only explanation is that God Almighty sealed part of their power when leaving them, and as compensation, also eliminated most of the negative effects. With the level of a Pillar-level Great Old One, it is entirely possible to do so."
"What surprises me the most is the Eye of Chaos. The torment of the ravings and roars from the First Epoch to the Fourth Epoch has finally paid off. Although it was the Sefirah, the Nation of Disorder, that assimilated this Uniqueness, I have fused with the Nation of Disorder. To some extent, I can indirectly mobilize the power of this Uniqueness through the Sefirah, with the Sefirah bearing the vast majority of the backlash."
"The remaining items left by Celestial Worthy are not sealed. The Book of Chaos is formed from a peeled-off Outer Deity Sequence 1 Beyonder Characteristic, but its ability duplicates that of the Eye of Chaos, and its negative effects are too severe, definitely at the level of a Sealed Artifact Grade 0."
"The most likely use is to attempt to accommodate an Outer Deity pathway Uniqueness and a Sequence 1 Beyonder Characteristic after achieving Great Old One status. This would likely make me the Great Old One closest to a Pillar, or even directly achieve Pillar-level Great Old One strength. Only then will I have true confidence to face the Outer Deities beyond the Original Barrier."
