Bas has been studying with those demon hunters in the Sealed Artifact Round Tower for a long time. In fact, there are also young demon hunters from all over the world studying here. Some are demon hunting elites from remote villages who have come up step by step. Some are from ancient demon-hunting families, and there are also heirs from large city-state families.

But Bass is also one of the more unique ones. He is not only from overseas, but also a king.

Not only did he study by himself, but he also arranged for the team that came with him to meet the Black King to do business in the city and opened several shops. At the same time, he bought books and the latest products. He seemed to have really brought Helfa to the city. Sicheng was regarded as a university, and he wanted to learn from it and go back to change his country.

On this day, he had just stepped into the mysterious high-rise tower building, and several demon hunters came towards him. He looked in the distance and saw a familiar figure waiting for him, that was the monk from the library.

Bass immediately walked towards the other party, who led him to a quiet room and then took out three iron boxes.

Bass was a little confused, and the other party told him.

"There are three branches under the original path, just like the dragon path has the black iron dragon, the bronze dragon, the silver dragon and the golden dragon."

"Every box here contains the method for the entire process of becoming the third level. The Black King asked me to bring it over for you to choose from."

"Which one do you choose?"

Bass was a little surprised. He felt that he was only a first-level person, and he might never be able to break through the first level in his life. Tell him whether such a long road is necessary.

But the monk told him that a road always requires pioneers, and this road cannot be completed by one person or one generation. It needs to be passed down and perfected from generation to generation, and he is not the only one who is chosen.

Buzz: "I understand."

He calmed down and opened the iron box, looking at the books and items placed inside.

According to the introduction in the book, the three branches of the original path are derived from three different laws of life, and also condense different extraordinary organs, and finally have three different life form templates.

The first type has the law of life that can formulate the reproduction and inheritance of the ethnic group. At the first level, it can determine the appearance characteristics of the descendants of the ethnic group, such as being more beautiful or stronger; at the second level, it can directly give certain special talents to the descendants of the ethnic group, such as birth. The long legs are good at running, have strong endurance, are good at swimming underwater, etc.; after the third level, they can create a scepter of external extraordinary organs. This professional can engrave the appearance characteristics and talents he created into the scepter. All descendants of the ethnic group born after that were born into this world according to this setting.

The second type controls the laws of life that can influence and control the people of the group. At the first level, in addition to some of the combat abilities possessed by the fused organs, they can also use their fused organs to guide through eyes, speak with the mouth, facial expressions or skin contact. , exudes invisible power of charm through contact or indirect means to control others, but the controlled person will get rid of it afterwards; at the second level, it can invade and infect through blood, and directly instill one's will into the other person's body for a period of time The opponent must not disobey; after the third level, they can even create an external code organ, and the rules recorded in the code cannot be violated by the entire group.

The third type has the law of life that can freely control the growth of the group. At the first level, they can make the people of the group strong, tall and toned. At the second level, they can make certain organs of the group develop beyond ordinary people through blood infection. , such as muscles, internal organs, vision and hearing, etc. After the third level, he can even create external organ weapons. All members of his tribe can integrate this external organ weapon and have combat power comparable to that of a demon hunter.

However, even if it reaches the third level, the range of ethnic groups it can affect is only a few hundred people at most close to its own blood relatives.

Only when you reach the fourth level can you truly become the master of the ethnic group. At that time, some kind of qualitative transformation will occur, creating a special ethnic group that truly belongs to you, a living ethnic group.

Bass hesitated and chose the first option.

The monk did not ask Bass the reason for his choice, he just took away the other two boxes and left.

Bass, on the other hand, held the box in his arms and saluted the monk, appearing a little cautious.

On the way, he was thinking.

"If I can have this ability, I can make the children born in the future of the tribe more talented and perfect."

"If one day, I reach the third level and make a scepter."

"Will my kingdom and people be born with more talents, smarter and stronger in the future?"

Bass suddenly started to look forward to it. Although it was difficult for him to see this day in his lifetime, it would eventually happen.

the other side.

In the Record Library of Helfas City.

Recently, Zi found a chessboard in the library and fell in love with chess, always playing against Herfas.

The chess pieces include kings, queens, monks, nobles, and knights. They seem to be built according to the system of this land. The two people sat at both ends of the chess board in silence. Only the movement of the chess pieces made sounds.

At this time, the monk returned to Helfas and told him about Bath's choice.

After the monk retreated, Helfas asked Zi.

"Now that you have divided the three branches, have you thought about what names to give them?"

Zi held the king chess piece in her hand and pondered for a long time.

She looked at the chessboard and felt that professionals in the original path could not be separated from the crowd and the ethnic group, and families of all sizes gathered together to form towns, and hundreds of towns stacked together formed kingdoms.

Just like the chess pieces on the chessboard, they play different roles in the country.

Zi mentioned the king piece and looked at Helfas.

"The one holding the scepter is called the leader of the scepter, or the king of the scepter, okay?"

She seemed to want Helfas to help her make a decision, but Helfas was not obsessed with a name, as long as it was convenient to call her.

He confirmed Zi's idea and then asked.

"Where are the other two?"

After receiving Helfas's affirmation, Zi immediately thought along the original train of thought and picked up the other two chess pieces.

"Code Nobility."

"Also, the Knight of Swords."

At this point, the three branches of the original path professionals were also finalized and became part of the civilization and ethnic group.

Hull didn't have any trouble with the name, but he had already thought about the next arrangements for the original path professional.

In his imagination, the power of the Scepter Clan Chief can allow the dragon people to continuously adapt to changes and give birth to super abilities under their guidance. At the same time, batches of special talents needed by various civilizations will be born. In the future, they will even be born from some kind of To the extent that quantitative change becomes qualitative change.

The power of the code nobility is somewhat dangerous, but if it is incorporated into the kingdom system and used, it can create a large number of people who can firmly maintain the country's law and order.

And it doesn't take much thought for the Knights of Swords to know that they can become another group of people in the kingdom to fight against the weird, besides dragons and demon hunters.

He even thought about using the witchers to deal with internal weird and extraordinary events, and when there are more knights of swords, they will be transferred to the frontiers to open up the land and defend against a large number of weird invasions. They are more suitable as a large extraordinary army. use.

Only one question remains.

How to restrain the power of this extraordinary system.

Of course, Helfas will not directly hand over this extraordinary power to the gate of the human world for direct control. They can apply for the call but cannot directly attribute it. They still have to incorporate it into the system of extraordinary power and separate it from the human world.

While Helfas was playing chess, he came up with a new name in his mind.

"The Court of Order."

After the Court of Heaven, the Court of Dragons and the Court of Seals, the Court of Order appeared again.

It consists of three branch professions of the original human path: Chief of the Scepter, Noble of the Code, and Knight of the Sword. It is in charge of the evolution and reproduction of the dragon people, and also helps maintain order in the world.

Zi already has her own life template, and has also mastered the secrets of the three elements and the method of condensing life marks. As long as she successfully breaks through to the fourth level, she may be able to successfully master the power of the fetus of life reproduction without worrying about it. The power breaks out of the seal and leaks out.

But recently, for some unknown reason, she always dreamed about parts of the past that were the birthplace of life.

With every reincarnation, a weird, life-reproducing fetus without wisdom and relying solely on instinct will lose a lot of things, but there will always be some information retained in its bloodline, which will also continue the long loneliness and madness.

Zi often sees part of the past of the fetus of life reproduction through the information inherited from this bloodline, and sees the wanderings of millions of years and the desire of endless years.

Zi has lived with it for a thousand years, and much of its past has been known to her. Even its madness and desire are all shared by Zi.

Zi has set a date for her breakthrough.

But the closer that day came, the more things she saw, many of which she had seen before.

It seemed that the weird one also felt something.

It understood that as long as Zi continued like this, it would never be able to escape her control and completely become a part of Zi. It roared and roared unwillingly.

Next to the fireplace deep in the library, matches burned and made a crackling sound.

Zi, who was lying on the bench covered with a fiery red blanket, frowned. After a while, he gradually opened his eyes.

Helfas was organizing the bookshelf like a librarian. Without turning around, he knew that Zi had woken up and said to her, "That weird thing started to move again and hit the seal?"

Zi straightened up and said as if she hadn't woken up, "Yeah!"

Helfas: "Don't worry, the power of Ji Zhu is not easy to break away from. As long as you are not afraid of it, it will not be able to break away from your control. You have to believe that you will be able to defeat it."

Zi nodded: "I understand."

Helfas said as he stuffed the last book into the bookshelf.

"Today is your breakthrough day."

He organized the bookshelf and came to Zi.

"How about it?"

"If you don't feel good, you can delay it for a while."

Zi: "No need, Helfas, I'm ready."

Helfas has already arranged a breakthrough location for himself, not in the human world, but in the kingdom of the gods.

The two of them climbed the stairs together and headed towards the heights of the Records Library. Standing in front of a slightly narrow balcony, Helfas stretched out his hand to Zi.

"Let's go, let's go."

Zi crossed the line of shadow and appeared in the sunlight. One hand held down the wooden door frame and the other reached out to grab Helfas, and together they floated towards the sky.

The sea of ​​clouds gradually approached, and the strange and strange scene appeared again.

The two of them passed through the black and white gauze, the boundary between fantasy and reality, no matter how many times they experienced it, Zi became obsessed with it.

After arriving in the dark realm, Helfas made arrangements, and a steel altar appeared in the void.

After retreating to the altar, Zi climbed up step by step.

Just after taking two steps, Zi suddenly stopped and turned around.

"Herfas!"

Helfas asked her: "What's wrong?"

Zi hesitated for a moment, but still told him.

“I feel like being and being weird are not opposites, and there’s not just one path to victory.”

"If we are enemies, then why do we need and desire each other? We can integrate their power, and they desire our wisdom, just like a pair of twins."

"We will eventually become one and head towards the same destination."

Helfas looked at Zi. He didn't show dissatisfaction because the other party denied him, but he didn't fully affirm the other party either.

"I don't know if what you said is right. After all, I can't see the future, but if you think so, then do what you want!"

"Everyone has the right to interpret their own life and path. This is your path."

Zi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded seriously. She was very happy that Helfas could support her.

The moment she stepped onto the altar, she could see the light flowing under her feet. Zhizhu's power had already arrived first and shined here.

Zi, on the other hand, controlled the power within her body and began to condense the life mark according to the steps of the three elements of life.

A pellet of divine blood cells was peeled off from her body and suspended above the head of the altar.

The blood energy turned into light and surged, and the complete life template she created was presented in the form of a genetic spiral.

The three are intertwined at a high place.

Finally merged together.

A unique divine blood cell was born. It exuded a strong attraction, like a black hole, attracting the mythical blood in Zi's body to continuously flow upwards and condense into a huge life mark.

This divine blood is under her control, but there is still much that is boiling in her body that is not under her control.

And those who are not under control are rebelling against Zi, preventing her from taking the last step.

The final critical moment has arrived.

This final process is to fuse together all the controllable substances that make up Zi, and undergo a qualitative transformation and life transition. This part also includes the strange and life-producing fetus in her body, including Zi's wisdom and the other party's. crazy.

It also represents that different individuals who were once two lives have completely merged into one life and are no longer separated from each other.

She kept her eyes open, but various scenes that the fetus of life and reproduction had experienced appeared before her eyes.

She saw a volcano rising from under the earth and melting the whole world, a giant tower supporting the heaven and earth standing in the middle of the apocalypse, and a heavy rain that lasted for countless thousands of years, cooling the whole world. .

For a brief moment, she seemed to have traveled through thousands of years of the birth of life.

The huge memory and the vast years washed away everything about Zi, but this time Zi was not afraid, nor did she give up in despair. She just watched it all quietly.

In the end, that weird core will also revealed its true nature because of Zi's unyielding movement.

Zi saw the huge flesh-and-blood embryo.

I heard it make a violent buzzing sound, overturning the sea and tearing countless creatures apart.

But this terrible buzzing sound fell on Zi's ears, and she seemed to hear a baby crying.

It understands nothing.

It doesn’t understand why it’s so difficult because it just wants to come to this world. It doesn’t want to do anything, it just wants to experience this rich and colorful world from a wise perspective.

It cried and shouted to Zi, begging her to let him be born, and begging the other party to let him escape from this eternal darkness and muddleheadedness.

If you want to break through the fourth level, you must accept each other. Only in this way can the two different life forms be completely combined into one.

At this time, Zi stretched out her hand towards the other party.

"It's been a thousand years, we should be considered friends!"

"Although you can't speak and have no wisdom, if you are willing, my wisdom is your wisdom and my eyes are your eyes."

"We are the twins of destiny, and together we are the most perfect life."

The fetus of life and reproduction let out a long roar.

He rushed towards Zi and merged with Zi's will.

Hundreds of millions of years ago.

The Creator created the master of life and the master of wisdom, and the two are dependent on each other.

The master of life created the body of the intelligent species, and the master of intelligence gave the intelligent species the ability to think.

When the intelligent species leaves the body of life, it loses its reliance and anchor on the world, and the living species can only possess wisdom by relying on the remains of the intelligent species.

And this scene is like a reenactment of the past.

Proving once again that wisdom and life are the twins of destiny.

—

Under the altar.

Helfas watched Zi's entire breakthrough process intently. He saw the transformation of the divine blood in the process of fusing the three elements, and watched Zi's life mark emerge.

He saw an expression of pain, loneliness, madness and sadness on Zi's face, which finally turned into a smile of acceptance ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ and then.

He saw the life mark undergo further transformation and gradually turned into a special mythical organ.

The mythical organ was still in the form of flesh and blood at first, but gradually became fixed and condensed into a huge and heavy scepter.

It was tens of meters long and emitted powerful fluctuations.

Helfas immediately understood that Zi had successfully broken through the ranks.

"Success!"

Reaching the fourth level is, in a sense, breaking the boundary between mortals and gods and embarking on the path of myth.

And all this is not over yet. In Helfas's eyes, Zi's life form has undergone further transformation, and his body has become taller and taller.

Her body expanded into the form of a hundred-meter giant, and she was covered with a mysterious purple robe. The style of the robe was gorgeous, sacred, and ancient.

The huge scepter fell from the sky and was held in Zi's hand. The long purple hair spread down like a waterfall, scattering and dancing in the sky above Helfas.

A red blood-colored lake sprang up under her feet, and shadows of life forms emerged from the blood-colored lake one after another, worshiping Zi.

She stands in the realm of the gods, like the return of the legendary ancient gods.

Majestic, perfect and powerful.

Helfas stood under the altar, looking extremely small compared to the ancient and powerful fourth-level life form.

He was also a little shocked, even obsessed, for a moment.

"Is this the fourth level of power?"

There are some extremely powerful monsters in this world, but those monsters without intelligence and the professionals who have risen through a complete rank and system still give people a completely different feeling.

One is like a rough ore, the other is like a sparkling diamond.

The former leads to the ancient wilderness, while the latter can open up a future of infinite hope. (End of chapter)
