Chapter 247: Zan-Bu of the Bone Sculpting People (1/2)
When the bone rat came out, it was very excited. It touched the bone stick, the fish bone fossil, took a bite of the sundial watch, and finally jumped onto the disc plate.
Yan Mo was delighted to see this and immediately established a spiritual connection with the bone rat, but what came was only what the other side saw, and there was no other explanation.
The bone mouse did not know.
With a glimmer of hope, Yan Mo sank into the world of inheritance.
He re-entered the inheritance Hall of the 1st Rank, because he found that up to 4th Rank, the answers appeared to be the most detailed of the first female voice, and she seemed to have prepared answers for some questions in advance, as long as you asked them, she would give answers. Unlike the old man's voice that led him in or the man's voice that appeared in the 4th Rank, no redundant questions would be answered.
”Son, why are you back? Is there any problem?” The gentle female voice seemed to be smiling.
Yan Mo guessed that the woman must have been a popular teacher before she died. ”Hello, yes, I saw some bone-refined products handed down from time immemorial outside. I think it was probably the bone objects made in your time. I can't see their use and I want to find an answer.”
”Well, bone sculpting products, bone objects, use, seeking answers, there is a consistent answer. Son, are you looking for the sea of knowledge? There you can see all the knowledge of bone-building accumulated by our family.
It turned out that libraries do exist! Excellent! He wanted to do so wonderfully. How could it be that the whole Bone Sculpting People's knowledge heritage did not exist as a library?
Yan Mo suppressed his excitement and asked, ”How can I go to the sea of knowledge?”
”As long as you pass the test of 4th Rank bone sculpting, your soul will be marked, and the sea of knowledge will be open to you. This is what everyone in my family knows when they enter the place of inheritance. Child, where you come in, where our family's bones are, that is, the sea of knowledge, sink into it, lie on the bones of our ancestors, and think about the shape of the bone objects you want to know. If our ancestors know, you will get that answer in the sea of knowledge.
”Thank you.” Knowing that the other party no longer exists, all she left behind was her spiritual strength and a well-recorded answer, but he expressed his gratitude sincerely.
Yan Mo exited the 1st Rank Heritage Hall and returns to where he first entered.
He never understood why there were so many bones in the place he entered, although he knew they were not real, and why they were half sank in the water.
Now he finally realized that the bones were not intended to be frightening or simply decorative. They represented the collection of inheritance of the Bone Sculpting People's innumerable ancestors, and that the water, he guessed, might be a medium through which his spiritual power could communicate with the consciousness or spiritual power left by the Bone Sculpting People's ancestors.
Yan Mo lay in the pool, transparent water flooding his mouth and nose until he slowly sank to the bottom.
Close your eyes and see the shape of the bone stick in your head, and ask, ”Tell me, what this is?”
What spread around, and soon a voice rang out: ”It's been a long time since I was 40 years old. This one of the most satisfying bone objects I've ever done. Why? You're not my Tribesmen? You look strange, like a semi-intelligent creature living near the Amoluo River, but you look much better than them. They all looked a little silly.”
Yan Mo didn't know how to answer, so he could only keep silent.
The man's personality seemed lively, and he said, ”Your spirit is a little strange, a little different from ours, but you can come here and hear my voice, which shows that your spirit can be shared with us. But your mental strength is not strong enough. It seems that you can only hear my voice but not see me in my handsomest form as ever.
Yan Mo had a smile on his face: ”Hello, can you tell me what the stick does?”
The lively man's voice laughed and said, ”Since you can come here, that's the recognition of your bones knowledge, and I won't hide it from you. First of all, it's not a stick. It's a snake. Unfortunately, your mental strength is not strong enough to see the image I sent you, otherwise you will understand at a glance.”
Yan Mo: ”Bone Snake?”
Man: ”Yes, it is made from the snake-man's bone of 9th Rank blood warrior. With the 9th yuan-crystal, it can be used as a 9th rank snake-man blood ability warrior.”
9th rank blood ability warriors!
Didn't the Snake People go on an all-out war with you?
Now I finally know why your tribesmen died. Do you often steal people's corpses or kill other intelligent creatures just to make powerful bonne puppets?
Yan Mo's spiritual inquiry was calm: ”Can we only have it startup with a 9th rank yuan-crystal?”
”No, the crystals above 5th Rank can start it up, but the bone warrior can't exert its strongest power, but it can also be used as puppets. Startup? It's an interesting word. Your race is very intelligent. Why don't I know there is such a race? Do you live in the sea?”
”No, I live on the mainland. You haven't seen my race, maybe it's because I'm living a long, long time period apart from you.”
”Oh, has it been a long time?” The man's voice sounded a little sad.
Yan Mo was so curious that he couldn't help asking, ”Are you alive or dead now? Why can your spirit answer me like this? Are you keeping your whole soul in this situation?”
The man laughed. “Not everyone can keep a fairly complete soul after death like me. Soul? Soul? Maybe your race has something relation with us. If your spiritual strength is strong enough in the future, you will be able to completely separate yourself from the physical body.”
Yan Mo was so shocked that he couldn't replicate the same question he had asked before, ”So you're equivalent to living an eternal life?”
The man laughed. “Son, no spirit can exist forever unless you put it in a special container. God makes wise creatures depend on the body to walk and think in the world. Naturally, there are reasons why he has to do so.”
Yan Mo's whole soul is shining, and he had no idea that a sea of knowledge inquiry would bring him such a great harvest!
He urgently asked, ”Is there a suitable special container, and then put the soul into it, you can continue to live instead of the body?”
The man was quiet for a long time before he answered, ”Our tribe made puppets from bone sculpting in order to get containers for souls, but we studied for a long time and failed after generations of efforts, only to find that yuan-crystal could act as an energy for puppets to be able to move on their own, and good bone objects can carry a part of the mental force.”
”But your soul is now in this bond.”
”The sea of knowledge is the only and most special existence of our people. Its sculpting process can't be duplicated. It is a miracle. Only the raw materials to make a sea of knowledge like this can't be found any more.” The lively man's voice suddenly became low, with some obvious sadness.
What Yan Mo understands is that the Bone Sculpting People has contributed its body to a great being, perhaps their wizard or Chief, and that person's ability is probably the strongest in the history of the Bone Sculpting People.
”Are there many souls like yours in the sea of knowledge?”
The man paused and his voice became clear again: ”Soul in the sea of knowledge is not used to talk to you to relieve boredom, we need to maintain the integrity of the soul and that consumes a lot of energy, so you should remember to often change the crystal on the bone.”
”What if there is no crystal?”
