Chapter 1069: The Extraordinary Knowledge of the Great Weakening Spell
At the moment when Lin Mei was calming everyone down.
I was located underground, observing the massive facility that was spinning rapidly; it gave me the feeling that… it was not something that the Blood Slave Academy could create.
Since it wasn’t created by Blood Slaves… it was highly likely a wizard’s work.
While supervising the operation of this colossal facility, I was also using a Summoning Spell to have those summoned beings collect all the data from underground here for me.
In the process, I hoped to find a passage leading to the Outside World from within.
But unfortunately, there was none… perhaps the moment the Blood Slave Academy was breached, this vast underground facility was abandoned, with the only passage blocked, and personnel evacuated from that one-way teleportation magic.
It seemed they had retained this place largely because they couldn’t destroy it all at once.
After all, this huge structure was built on an Earth Vein node. They may have never considered the possibility of it being captured, and even had arranged a blood ritual. What could possibly go wrong?
Yet all of this happened like a surprise.
With some spirit cats and small hawks I summoned, they dumped everything that seemed like data right in front of me, forming a small mountain.
However, the vast majority of this wasn’t the information I wanted.
I looked at the exquisitely bound books that were turned upside down… these seemed to be time-wasting novels and literary works.
There was even… um… some “notebooks.”
It appeared those people had left in a hurry, not having time to take their treasured possessions.
I flipped through them a bit and found they weren’t my cup of tea; then, I burned them in one go.
Ha ha… it’s less fun than what my Sister Bai and I are up to, so why keep it?
Anything without value was discarded.
What remained were some barely useful materials.
For instance, parameters for some equipment operations, techniques, and a few taboos regarding the operation of certain devices… the more I looked, the more mysterious it felt.
Of course, there were also some diaries left by less-than-serious individuals.
After all, who writes diaries if they are serious?
I included all this information into the Great Knowledge Tree, slowly organizing it, and opened these diaries.
Perhaps they would record something I found interesting.
August 27, clear sky, the damned graduation process is finally over, I’ve finally escaped my family’s control, thanks to my mentor for lending me a hand, hehe… now I’m someone significant.
September 1, it should be clear sky, although we can’t go out, the atmosphere here is far better than that oppressive one at the Wizard Tower…
September 12, leisure~ mood is clear, this is a perfect job with a stable income, although my hands smell like blood after prolonged contact with Blood Crystals.
October 1, the weather is clear, a new guy arrived. He told me it’s sunny, and he even brought a notebook! Oh my God! He’s a genius!
January 13, overcast, there was a problem in my district, but I’m not responsible; almost got blamed for it, damn, that guy’s true face is really…
June 6, clear sky! I’ve made a name for myself! I became the in-charge! Hahaha… that fool was taken down, serves him right! People like that are just…
June 7, is there really that much responsibility as the in-charge? It’s exhausting… I didn’t expect this place to be related to such an important experiment. This is the principal… I had never even seen the principal at the academy, yet here I see her!
There are many records in these diaries, but a lot of them are meaningless content, even some are just blank, so I simply skimmed through, picking out some notable bits.
Now, seeing this, I paused.
The owner of this diary is undoubtedly a wizard student, seeming to have been assigned a job post-graduation; they seem to be the kind who wanted to break free from their family’s control.
As for the academy they mentioned, coming here presents a huge problem!
Put yourself in their shoes; what kind of place would require Principal Mei to come personally observe? It must be immensely important!
For example… my Dream Demon Workshop in the Expanding Realm, various laboratories within the academy.
But why would a wizard academy head come to the Blood Slave Peninsula instead of working on something else?
Is the land over there not enough for them to squander?
Or is there a necessity to stay here?
The original bloodline of the human race.
This seems to be the only answer.
With this answer in mind, I quickly organized the situation I encountered.
This immense underground facility had no enemies, but that doesn’t mean there were no dangers. After briefly skimming through the diary content, I found many records regarding some facilities here.
They referred to them as rules and taboos—things that could not be done—this included
leaving without permission.
This place is both the “iron rice bowl” referred to by the diary’s owner and a prison that would trap them for a lifetime.
If it weren’t for such circumstances, these people would probably live and die here.
Soon, another day passed.
I did not rush to return because the original bloodline had not yet been prepared.
But I had already relayed the situation inside directly to Cleveland.
I continued to remain here; after all… the Bloodline Power, I just happened to be researching this recently.
It piqued my curiosity since I was genuinely intrigued: what exactly is the Bloodline Power of the human race?
Theoretically, every species’ bloodline possesses corresponding abilities endowed with innate talents.
Just like birds can fly and fish can breathe underwater, these are the most basic capabilities endowed by the physical results of bloodline strength.
Moreover, life forms like fire giants have flame-affinity bloodline strength, while dragons possess instincts like dragon might and dragon breath.
Bloodlines are indeed a fascinating concept; they dictate the innate qualities, abilities, physical form, organ development, and even mental state of a life form.
And humans?
I looked at the analyzed Blood Crystal. If it were before, I might have ignored such notions directly, but now this opportunity made me realize that any life form has bloodline strength, and humans are no exception.
In life, every person treats many daily behaviors as habits, only realizing how amazing such abilities are subconsciously when they become aware of them.
For instance… humans can unconsciously breathe on their own, but when they realize it, they find breathing to be extremely troublesome.
Yet precisely because of this “trouble,” it becomes the breakthrough point.
Just like Fool Dream has realized Dream Transformation; recognizing the marvel of this ability makes it bothersome, as subjective consciousness is taking over a power that inherently belongs to them from instinct!
Returning again to the bloodline power of humans.
Whether it’s breathing, eating, digesting, or perceiving through the five senses… these are all instincts of life.
Compared to ordinary fish, humans can breathe in the air; compared to shrimp and crabs, humans can see and perceive the intertwined world; compared to turtles, humans possess limbs more suited for movement…
Humans have many abilities, remarkably balanced, lacking any special capacities.
Humans are like the initial characters in a game.
Having nothing, yet possessing an exceptionally strong adaptability.
If I were to evaluate, the bloodline talent of humans seems… there’s nothing impossible.
Of course, this talent does not target individuals but the entire race; the race has infinite possibilities, but individuals may not necessarily have the same.
This always unconsciously brings me to think of the concept of a “perfect person.”
The Void has not misnamed itself; names passed down through generations almost equal the concept of corresponding things.
The concept of a “perfect person.”
This name.
Could it be that the so-called “human” is a kind of “enlightenment”?
Humans are ostensibly without any prominent features, hence naturally lack any shortcomings or defects.
Of course, this so-called prominence, shortcoming, and defect are also relative terms.
Thus, the “perfect person” naturally comes to signify absolute perfection as a goal that exists only in ideals and speaks of something else?
A “perfect person” who is progressing toward this goal?
No, a “perfect person” making progress has no meaning; what matters to me is only the path ahead.
Perfect power extraordinary promotion system?
I shook my head and recorded this thought into my notes; I currently do not lack extraordinary promotion systems.
Whether it’s the Witch Promotion System or Body Cultivation Promotion System, I have too many choices.
Moreover, I still have many things to do; these thoughts can perhaps be gradually realized after I promote to extraordinary.
Just as I held these thoughts, preparing to cast them aside, I felt a stirring.
This subtle, nearly inaudible anomaly still made me sense that it was not about whether I myself had any abnormalities but rather a force.
【Extraordinary Knowledge】
A piece of knowledge I had never intended to touch ever since I first obtained it.
It is also the predecessor of the Grand Weakening Spell.
In the fleeting thought just now, I felt a stirring coming from it.
Previously when I first awakened my talent, I couldn’t even observe its existence, but as my understanding of power deepened, I gradually became aware of it.
Yet… I ignored it.
Now, with a deeper grasp and understanding of power, I finally discovered its anomaly.
It was as if, in that instant, something very important was illuminated, emanating a glimmer amidst the shake, and afterwards, everything returned to normal.
As if nothing had happened at all.
An illusion?
Absolutely impossible!
But what important matter could be influenced by a force capable of altering my perception?
I turned sideward, still witnessing the massive facility in operation, and ultimately looked at my own hands.
I was engaged in a very strange struggle; I was battling my own hesitations—strange and tedious.
As I was pondering whether I needed to do this.
Do what?
To… study the stirring I just sensed.
It felt as though some compelling thought was hinting at what I should pursue, but the more so, the more perplexed I became.
An elder once asked me why I wouldn’t study the abnormality of different flavors of Dream Drinks, as
I wanted to give Enmang a sense of mystery that belongs to them.
But why wouldn’t I pursue this moment’s stirring?
Because I’m busy with something else right now?
Or is it because researching more power is a burden for me?
These reasons all lack a rationale that would make me willingly want to do this.
I closed my eyes, calmed my emotions, and made a rational decision.
Just like I would take a day or two to uncover the hidden secrets here, I now had sufficient time to validate some things.
Having understood this, I reached deep into my soul and retrieved something.
【Super Knowledge】
When I “picked” it out from the depths of my soul, I felt a sense of… reality that I had never experienced before!
That rush of transformation was as if it shattered an invisible barrier, bringing me an endless sense of involvement and observation within “life”!
Countless memories surged through my mind like a revolving lantern; at this moment, I seemed to awaken from a dream, experiencing something beyond description throughout my life.
So… my life is this spectacular?
I instinctively looked at my empty palm but was confident that I was holding something; it was a piece of 【Super Knowledge】.
I didn’t know why, but pulling it out felt like “picking,” as if since its emergence, it had shared, witnessed my life alongside me.
“Is this the predecessor of the Grand Weakening Spell?”
I gazed at “it,” feeling an inexplicably special sensation.
However, I absolutely didn’t want to return it to the depths of my soul.
I took out the Box of Books and sealed it inside using an entire page.
At this moment, my thoughts were quickening, and countless ideas erupted in my mind; perhaps the Grand Weakening Spell is merely a one-sided explanation of it, just as the Grand Wisdom Enlightenment Spell is also a manifestation of a Sacred Object.
It is certainly not just about weakening, and the feeling I had wasn’t one of being weakened; I didn’t regain my power because of “weakening.”
However, it must have “suppressed” a certain concept, impacting me in an unknown way.
I looked at myself, noting no changes; using Body Cultivation power to sense myself, I found no enhancements whatsoever.
Yet it felt as if something had been released or had changed.
I couldn’t determine whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for me.
After much contemplation without results, I decided to give up; otherwise, I could easily find myself in a deadlock.
Now, I was still figuring out this so-called “original bloodline” as the priority.
I waited… for three days.
More than the expected one or two days, I waited an additional day, but I didn’t mind. During these three days, I verified numerous things here, such as experimenting with various spells on life shaping.
Moreover, I learned the technique of extracting a life species’ bloodline power through this massive facility.
Now, I transformed into Fool Dream, entering the final preparation phase in a state of Dream Transformation.
This step was entirely enclosed, with not even a viewing window left.
To say it was a vacuum without dust would hardly describe the level of closure in this phase.
Finally, I looked at the final product, which condensed into a drop of liquid resembling transparent blood-red amber.
This is a standard unit of original bloodline!
