Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Chapter 4: The First Seal (2/2)
He realized that this black light seemed to be the source of his own power.
Karl discovered that the true power he possessed within the depths of his soul was formidable.
Firstly, it could devour the spirituality from mysterious rare artifacts and the souls of favored members, transforming it into a permanent power within his own soul, strengthening the lower limit while raising the upper limit of his soul power.
Secondly, it showed the manifestation of “temporary powers,” he naturally could convert the life sacrificed into a “death-inducing Curse,” afflicting any individual within his field of vision.
“I wonder if different sacrifices besides ‘life’ would have the same effect.”
He had already realized the importance of that girl.
She was his favored member, that is, a “chess piece,” just like the first character one gets in a mobile game.
Being attached inside a bottle, he couldn’t move freely, and acting personally would consume an immense amount of spirituality, so utilizing convenient “chess pieces” to influence the world became very important.
As Karl pondered, it was best to train Irene and even the entire Fischer bloodline to become powerful Extraordinary Exponents.
He vaguely sensed that there were two other members of the Fischer family with their bloodline in the vicinity.
However, with a distance of over five kilometers, Karl still couldn’t communicate directly with their consciousness.
But those two family members, drawn by the fate of their bloodline, would sooner or later come here to see him.
What needed to be done next was very clear.
On one hand, he needed loyal “chess pieces” to collect mysterious rare artifacts, providing him with more spirituality and runes.
On the other hand, the spirituality of favored members who have died returns to him; therefore, as long as he created favored members with strong spirituality,
once their souls returned to him after their death, they could provide him with enough “spirituality” to nourish himself.
“It seems that I and the favored clan are fundamentally in prosperity and in adversity together.”
Suddenly, as the purple amulet was completely absorbed, the first heavy seal within the depths of his soul was finally entirely shattered!
Karl was overjoyed, feeling a surge of fragmented memories emerging, and he quickly learned a great deal about the “Claud World” in which he resided.
It turned out that this place was Nasir City on the East Coast of the Ouden Continent.
On the Ouden Continent, there were numerous countries, with the ruling class being powerful nobles who controlled extraordinary powers, and Nasir City was under the rule of the Hovern baronial family.
Without doubt, extraordinary power was an absolute symbol of status and identity!
Approximately ninety percent of the resources and channels for cultivating extraordinary powers were entirely in the hands of the nobility and the True Gods Curia.
Extraordinaries in the world mainly fell into two categories: those who studied to wield more magical power with mental power, and those who strengthened the power of the bloodline in their corporeal form.
Yet regardless of the type of Extraordinary, the essence of their soul had not sublimated, meaning that even in death, the extraordinaries were still purely mortal, and their soul’s spirituality would not differ much from that of ordinary people.
“Ah?”
Wait, something’s wrong!
Karl quickly realized that something was terribly amiss!
In his mind, there was a complete system of powers for the “God Pantheon Consecution,” whereby mortals could ascend the God Pantheon stairway through magic potions and rituals, gradually sublimating the essence of their soul, increasing their spirituality.
However, in the present world, there was no God Pantheon Consecution at all!
People, even if they took the corresponding magic potions and performed rituals, could not possibly grasp the power of the consecution!
“Because the extraordinary laws related to spirituality consecution simply do not exist, a far more advanced system of power is of no help…”
Karl felt profoundly helpless within.
Furthermore, whether it was bloodline or spellcasting talent, they were gifts given at birth by the gods, and mortals without bloodline or talent could never become Extraordinary Exponents!
At least that was the theory.
Even if, theoretically speaking, he really could train members of the Fischer family to harness magic power or the power of bloodline, becoming powerful spellcasters or knights, they would not be able to contribute much spirituality to him after their death.
Enlightenment on the power of the soul was completely a blind spot in the knowledge of the current Claud World!
“…”
After a long silence, Karl finally thought of the only solution that wasn’t really a solution.
With the recovery of memories after removing the first seal, it contained many fragmented pieces of information about the “God Pantheon Consecution.”
Although the related information in the memories was incomplete and even scattered, as long as he continued to shatter the seals, he would be able to deduce a complete God Pantheon Consecution.
Moreover, in his memories, he possessed the method to visit the Spirit Realm through dreams, theoretically able to reconstruct all the Spiritual Laws of the God Pantheon Consecution, eventually enabling the people of the world to have the opportunity to grasp the power of consecution.
“Build the stairway to deification, creating an entirely different new generation of extraordinaries!”
