Chapter 1138
Chapter 1138 “Scholar of Yore“In the highlands, on an altar with eyes, arms, heads, and organs embedded in it.Dark red blood-red light surged out like a tidal wave, distorting into the shape of a deformed tree.
Amidst a buzzing sound, the human bones, candles, silver plates, and gold boxes trembled, as though they could slice throughone’s Spirit Body.
The surrounding supplicants instinctively bowed their heads and prostrated.Then, they simultaneously came to a realization:“The Berserk Sea, reef island...”
When he saw the ancient palace above the gray fog and sensed the slight tremble of the mysterious space, Klein felt that he hada deeper connection with the so-called “Sefirah Castle,” one that was hard to accurately grasp.
At this moment, he truly felt that place would gradually belong to him.
In just a few seconds, all the abnormalities disappeared. Without any delay, Klein got the two marionettes to put away the itemsthat were still of value, and destroy the rest. He took out a paper figurine and shook it.
With a smacking sound, the paper figurine ignited with a scarlet flame as dense illusory wings appeared behind his back.
When he saw this, Klein was stunned. He never expected that the simple Paper Figurine Substitutes would have hints of Angel’sEmbrace.
He then grabbed Qonas and Enuni, using “Teleport” to vanish from the island formed by reefs.
After using several islands in the Sonia Sea as waypoints, he took a huge detour before finally returning to his residence inBacklund’s East Borough.
During this process, he repeatedly used Paper Figurine Substitutes, which had undergone several qualitative changes, to disruptdivination, prophecy powers, tracking, and observation.
Phew, | didn’t expect it to really trigger the changes in Sefirah Castle, resulting in an unconcealable phenomenon... Fortunately, |was sufficiently careful and cautious. | wasn’t careless. If | had advanced in Backlund or the surrounding areas, I’m certain thatAmon and Zaratul would’ve already “seen” me... Klein heaved a sigh of relief as he hurriedly took four steps counterclockwiseand went above the gray fog to do a divination.
After confirming that he was in a safe situation, he didn’t stay for long. He immediately returned to the real world, and with thehelp of Cogitation, he began to restrain his diverging spirituality.
After doing this, he took off his clothes, threw himself into bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
Normally, a Bizarro Sorcerer wouldn’t be as exhausted as he was after successfully advancing to Scholar of Yore. He woulddefinitely have energy left to check his physical condition. However, while traveling through history, he relied on his mark to travela very far distance. He relied on his own mastery of ancient secrets, that far exceeded his current level, to reach theestablishment of the Giant King’s CourUn the early of the Second Epoch or the end of the Epoch.
This was equivalent to digesting the potion.
After a few hours of deep sleep, Klein woke up as he slowly opened his eyes.
He sat up, pulled a pillow to prop him up from behind, and rubbed his temples.
After ten minutes of regulating himself, he was completely awake and began to inspect himself.
Indeed, I’ve digested most of the potion right after | consumed it. At least eighty percent... This is roughly what | expected... but |wonder how much more ancient history I'll have to obtain before | can digest it completely...
From the looks of it, the acting of a Scholar of Yore has two main directions: One is a scholar from ancient times, and the other isa scholar who studies ancient history. Both of them are required. The first is relatively easy because the ritual itself contains thekey point of making one a person from ancient times. Once the advancement is successful, one can naturally act as a scholarfrom ancient times.
The second point is extremely difficult. It would be alright in normal society, but in this world with true gods, devils, and evilexistences, just gathering ancient information is a very risky matter. If | endeavor to gather the truth of history, | might die ahorrible death at any moment without any reason. The more | understand, the greater the danger...
The reason why | know so much is mostly thanks to the arrangements of a few existences, as well as the complicated fate thatSefirah Castle brings me. This makes me encounter all sorts of things. Of course, even so, I’ve already died once despite beinga true deity’s Blessed; what’s more, other Scholars of Yore?
Changing the spot of Miracle Invoker and Scholar of Yore will make acting relatively simple. Unfortunately, there’s no suchthing...
In addition, the previous two meanings have an inclination towards ancient times. | have to pay attention to the word “scholar.”What must | figure out from history before | can be considered a “scholar”?
Next, there are a few directions towards my digestion. First, | need to figure out Dark Angel Sasrir’s current state and trulyreplicate the actual process of the Cataclysm. Second, | need to spend some effort to connect the history of the Fourth Epochtogether, and not just be fine with having them in disconnected segments. Third, | need to go deep into the details from amacroscopic view. For example, the rise and fall of the Antigonus family...
After confirming that prior acting was effective, and considering his future path ahead of time, Klein combined the mysticismknowledge he had gained from his advancement and his observation of his godhood’s divinity, and he had a trial run of hispowers to slowly figure out the powers of a Scholar of Yore.
Worms of Spirit can be split into six hundred pieces. The godhood patterns have also changed to a certain degree; it’s evenmore complicated, and it can showcase concepts of strength, strangeness, and supematuralness...
The changes in my godhood patterns firstly originate from the newly obtained characteristic, and secondly, it comes from themysticism knowledge contained within the potion. This is both a result of the Beyonder characteristic and also somethingobtained from a higher level... After becoming a true High-Sequence Beyonder, is it possible to directly change the knowledge ata higher dimension to affect Beyonders at other Sequences?
Deciphering a potion formula from the godhood patterns seems like an actual example...
Also, at the level of Sequence 3, the changes in godhood patterns have a personal effect. This is closely related to prayer andresponses. As a Scholar of Yore, the corresponding honorific names will be different in nature. This is because of differentpersonalities, experiences, and traits.
Yes, | can allow different Worms of Spirit to instinctively listen to prayers and respond to them when it’s a relativelyuncomplicated matter. It doesn’t affect my other actions... The specially marked ones and more complicated matters will behanded over to my actual body...
A Scholar of Yore can use a Worm of Spirit to act as a god, but what about other Sequence 3 Beyonders from other pathways?It's impossible for them to respond while sleeping, right...
Heh heh, I'll think of my honorific name as a Scholar of Yore later. I'll first study the specific abilities.
Uh... A Scholar of Yore’s main ability is to obtain help from history. This is split into two parts. One is to borrow strength from mypast self.
This is rather embarrassing for me. It’s currently useless because the past me is definitely weaker than the present me. Yes,when | was hanging above the door of light above the gray fog, | was just an ordinary person... Compared to those who wereimportant figures in the past but are now weak due to all kinds of reasons, this is a godly skill. One can be a baby crying for icecream while engaging in a Sequence 1 battle. It would be impossible to find any weaknesses... The only problem is that it’s notlong-lasting...
Of course, as more time passes after | become a Scholar of Yore, this will begin to show its effects. | can often borrow strengthfrom my past Scholar of Yore self so that | wouldn’t have any moment of weakness. Even if | were to suffer serious injuries... Toa certain extent, this is something that’s self-perpetuating, preventing myself from ever being in a nadir until my spirituality iscompletely drained.
Yes, before my spirituality is drained, | can always borrow energy from my past self. There’s no limit to the number of times. Asfor my current spirituality, even without the process of recovering, | can borrow power nearly ten times a day, maintaining it forfive minutes each time.
The second part is to summon images from the Historical Void. It can be humans or objects. The more detailed and the betterthe understanding | have of the corresponding piece of history and matters, the higher the chance of success is and the longer itwill last.
Similarly, the lower the target’s level is, relative to me, the higher the chance of success and the longer it can be maintained.
In addition, increasing my affinity with the target will increase the chances of success and the time it can be maintained.
These are the three conditions to succeed. Furthermore, when summoning someone of a higher level than myself, or an item,even if | barely succeed, the final projection will only have a portion of the strength and quality of the original. It can’t be onewho’s at full strength. Also, | can only maintain three images summoned from the Historical Void at any point in time, includingthose summoned by my marionettes...
Currently, even if it's the most ordinary item or something that was once mine, | can maintain its availability for a maximum offifteen minutes.
The fact that the target has a close relationship with me is worth rumination. In essence, borrowing power from one’s own bodyis also a form of summoning. It’s just that one’s relationship with oneself is extremely close, so there’s no possibility of failure. It’san extreme example.
In other words, if | were to summon the important figures from the Historical Void, it would be best to establish a friendlyrelationship with “Them” and maintain it for a long time. Yes, if | were to summon Mr. Azik’s projection, the chances of successwill definitely be higher than projecting other angels...
How is this a Beyonder power? This is obviously studies related to EQ, Relationships, and Interpersonal Communication!
As he sighed with emotion, Klein sincerely felt that the core powers of a Scholar of Yore were godly. After all, those that involvedhistory and time were most likely extremely magical.
However, in order to put it to use to its fullest potential, one had to have sufficient intelligence, and also make the necessarypreparations.
This was an unchanging requirement of the Seer pathway.
Yes, when summoning images from the Historical Void, there’s no way to communicate with them. That is to say that a Scholarof Yore can’t interfere with history and change the past. From the angle of acting, this can be summarized as “witnessing fate,affecting the present, and the inability to reverse the past...”
Apart from the ability to transfer a certain part of ailments, wounds, curses, attacks, prophecies, and observations to PaperFigurine Substitutes, there's another power. It can transfer a certain part to the target. Before one discovers that it's fake, thingscan continue proceeding as per normal. Heh heh, if anyone loses their heart while their brain remains active, | can give them apaper heart for a short period of time. He will be able to obtain strength from history to beat and circulate blood...
The time it takes to attain initial control of Spirit Body Threads has shortened to two seconds, and completely transforming into amarionette takes ten seconds. The maximum range for the two is 500 meters... By controlling a marionette, the limit to swappingpositions is five kilometers...novelbin
Flame Jump is also five kilometers... | can freely control the might of Air Cannon, and at its maximum might, it’s equivalent to acoastal defensive cannon...
Acreature that can transform into a physical form whose characteristics have a difference that does not exceed a certain level.Some of the organs created can be used, while others are only decorations...
Phew, this is a Scholar of Yore who has digested most of the potion... After examining himself, Klein slowly stood up.
He planned on entering the world above the gray fog to check on the changes in Sefirah Castle.
