One can easily be swallowed whole by countless lives if they aren’t careful!
"You are behaving inappropriately in front of our guest. Have you finished your lessons for today?"
Soon, several older nuns who exuded a maternal charm arrived and sternly scolded them, causing the young nuns to scatter in fright.
However, their gaze at Gary Smith was filled with deep meaning - a quick glance with their alluring eyes was captivating.
Ginger Thorn apologized, "I’m sorry, all these children are orphans who the church have been caring for since their infancy. Due to the negative impression the outside world has of Thorns, they are not allowed to leave the church before they come of age, so they are very curious about newcomers. There’s no malice meant, I hope you understand!"
Gary Smith shook his head and said with a smile, "It’s okay, it was a feast for my eyes. But I must say, the members of your church are generally very good-looking!"
Ginger Thorn looked at Gary Smith who clearly bore infinite pain, but still maintained his gentleness. Her eyes softened even more.
A stronger desire welled up in her heart...
She wanted to carry the burden of pain with him!
She explained, "Because the Thorn Ring can not only eliminate the pain of all beings but also has a beneficial effect on oneself – it can expel impurities from the body. Plus, living in the thorn ecosystem for a long period makes us more attractive than the average person.
Although it might sound brutal, a good face really can attract the goodwill of others more easily. It’s convenient for preaching and carrying out the doctrines of the Thorn Church."
Gary Smith nodded, following Ginger Thorn to walk through the main entrance of the church and came across a thorn garden.
The ground was covered with living thorns covered with tiny spikes. Countless blooming red Thorn Flowers created a unique and surreal beauty.
As Gary admired the scenery, he casually asked:
"Aren’t supreme beings supposed to be high above? Why would the Sovereign of Thorns wish to help humans?"
"Perhaps... it’s because of love," Ginger Thorn replied, stepping on the thorn-covered soil where her white feet were pierced by the sharp thorns. However, they did not leave any wounds on her.
Forcing herself through the pain, she continued:
"The great beings surpass humanity, seeing all the countless things in this world as mere specks of dust.
However, my Lord, who holds the power of reproduction, thorns, and pain, can see the original sin inherent in all living beings at their birth.
Beings suffer because they are sinful. Yet sins are fixed – if someone takes on an extra share of it, others would suffer less.
My Lord takes on the most original sin, but new sins are continuously being born. Thus, the Thorn Church was established.
In fact, whether at the initial establishment of the church or even now, all nuns are orphans who lost their parents in various accidents and were adopted by the church. I am one of them. I took the name Ginger because the nun who adopted me was surnamed Ginger, and Thorn after the thorns that gave me life! I hope to bear more pain to reduce the number of people in the world who are like us."
With each step, Ginger Thorn looked back at Gary, who was immersed in his thoughts, and continued smilingly:
"This is the Thorny Path, part of the church’s creation of the thorn ecosystem. It’s about a kilometer long, allowing non-church members to experience suffering as well. The deeper the sin, the greater the pain. If you can endure till the end, it can purify your filth, temper your will, and stabilize your spiritual power.
Although it has many benefits, few people tread this path. After all, few can face their own suffering. The root cause of spiritual distortion lies within one’s heart.
However, you won’t be affected as long as you wear shoes. So feel free to come in. The rules of thorns are always meant to constrain us, not demand anything from others!"
Gary Smith nodded, stepped on the thorns, but felt no prickling. Instead, it felt soft.
The sharp points on the thorns retracted the moment he stepped on them and regrew only when he lifted his foot. It was as if this thorn ecosystem...
Was alive!
Gary followed Ginger Thorn, seeing many small Thorn Series Pet Beasts moving around within the thorn garden.
For example, Thorn Flower Monsters, with thorn flowers as their heads, swayed their heads among the flowers.
Then there were the huge Poison Thorn Giants, whose green bodies were full of sharp spikes, turning a bluish-purple at the tips. Just a tiny dose of their poison, 0.01 milligrams, was enough to poison an elephant and turn it into a puddle of pus.
In the sky, there were a few Poison Thorn Dragons, whose bodies were covered in poisonous thorns and long, green horns on their heads. They soared through the sky, and upon seeing Ginger Thorn below, roared enthusiastically in greeting.
Ginger Thorn nodded in response.
The Thorn Church is a part of the Church of the True God. So the nuns, being human, have the Beast Master Space and can form contracts with these Pet Beasts born from Thorn Ecosystem.
And the church also possesses a top-tier Spiritual Puzzle — Eternal Thorny Paradise!
It can easily transform a region into a thorn’s domain, kill everything in its path, and greatly accelerate the growth of thorn pet beasts!
Swoosh!
From the thorn bushes suddenly came a sound, and a palm-sized humanoid life form similar to a tree spirit rushed out, but its body was not made of root tendrils, but of many thorns.
Its emerald gem-like eyes looked timidly at Gary Smith, but it didn’t run away, instead it took out a small cup condensed from thorns and raised it in front of Gary.
Inside was a brilliant red liquid, similar to fruit pulp.
Before Gary could ask, Ginger Thorn spoke:
"This is a Thorn Berry Sprite, a special pet beast born in the thorn ecosystem, who is good at collecting fruits nurtured by thorns and brewing fruit juice. The taste is sweet and sour, pretty nice to drink, and it can strengthen one’s body.
Its evolutionary form is the Thorn Berry Cannon Tree, which can launch Thorn Berry Cannons infused with boiling spirit energy, which has a massive destructive power.
It seems to like you very much, even giving you the juice it laboured to brew!"
"Thank you!"
Upon hearing the words, Gary took the juice from the Thorny Berry Sprite with both hands. The Eye of Truth showcased everything just as Ginger Thorn stated, so he drank it down in one gulp.
The taste was a bit sour, but very refreshing, with the pure spirit energy of the thorn attribute contained in it. It surged into his limbs, but due to Gary’s high innate capacity, it only strengthened him a bit.
In return, he gave the Sprite a piece of Life Honey, and it was very happy, hopping into the thorn bushes.
Throughout the journey, Gary also saw many overlords, and even monarch-tiered thorn demons, which demonstrates the terrifying depth of the Thorn Church’s resources.
After a walk of approximately twenty minutes, Gary arrived in front of the Grand Cathedral.
Upon entering, one could feel a natural atmosphere, and the ceiling was dotted with stars.
However, at the central location, there was not a god statue on display, but a thorny cross entwined by an Ouroboros.
Gary wasn’t surprised by this, after all, the Great Existence itself is a corruption, even if the beings don’t mean any harm themselves, direct sight could still result in horrifying contamination.
Moreover, mortal sculptors cannot possibly craft Their faces!
Mortals cannot gaze directly upon gods!
Therefore, for the most part, the symbol of the church is used as the representative, and the symbol of the Thorn Church is the Thorn Cross entwined by the Ouroboros, that symbolises fertility, immortality, and Mother Earth.
Gary scanned around and didn’t find much useful information in the church. The history of the Thorn Church he had heard along the way was all from the believers’ perspective, naturally there were no bad words.
Thus, he wasn’t certain whether the Sovereign of Thorns had a connection with the Mother of Twilight?
"Huh..."
Just as Gary was preparing to bid farewell and leave, he suddenly saw several prayer rooms on the inner side. The Eye of Truth didn’t display any relevant materials about them.
Instead, it showed a string of question marks!
Could the problem be here?
Gary’s heart was excited, and he nonchalantly glanced towards the prayer room, but he didn’t notice that Ginger Thorn behind him was holding her head low, as if trying to hide something.
Gary stood at the door of a prayer room with a black curtain, and curiously said:
"Can I go in to look..."
The words had not yet left his mouth when he was suddenly pushed, lost his balance and staggered into the prayer room. Before he could react, a figure pounced on him, pinning him underneath.
"Can’t help it anymore!"
Ginger Thorn’s face was flushed, she looked down at Gary and trembled, suppressing her excited emotions, and said with a hoarse voice:
"Finally..."
"Waited for this day!"
