Am I a god-tier talent in all my professions?

Chapter 222 Witness - The Root

whoosh-

Luluwei sped backwards at high speed.

He had cursed Lu Cang countless times in his heart.

Combat is no problem, of course, but who would let archers fight at such close range!
The thick seawater significantly limited Luluwei's speed.

The speed at which the opponent could unleash its power in the deep sea was terrifying!
"Obstruction, kill—!"

"Kill anyone who stands in my way!"

boom!
The seawater erupted with a terrifying mist, instantly reaching Luluwei!

"Reverse Arrow"

boom!
The longbow unleashed a terrifying impact, and in an instant, Luluwei was propelled backward toward the exit by the force of the recoil!

The demon that was charging towards it was stopped in its tracks by the blast, unable to advance even half a step further.

By blasting the enemy away, you also increase the distance between yourself and the enemy.

Whoosh!
And then we see the next instant!

Luluwei's slender arms drew the bow multiple times at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye!

Swish swish swish——

Boom boom boom!

The arrows both propelled it back and accelerated its distance, while the monster in front of it was constantly blasted back and pinned against the wall by the arrows.

A hail of arrows covered it, and it was completely suppressed and unable to move.

Luluwei has already created a great distance between them.

In just a few dozen seconds, she had already appeared 5,000 kilometers away.

Luluwei's speed isn't slow at all...

It can be considered to be in the class of highly mobile vehicles.

Next, it was Luluwei's one-sided thrashing. Even after the distance of five thousand kilometers had been widened, the arrows with extremely strong knockback effects continued to bombard her relentlessly.

Swah——

Lu Cang moved in front of an arrow.

He blocked the arrow with one hand.

boom--

But after the arrow was blocked, he felt a continuous force pushing him backward.

With just one arrow, he was propelled backward for more than ten kilometers.

Lu Cang watched the rain of thousands of arrows flying every second.

It seems she has made great progress.

There will indeed be many situations where I need Luluwei in the future, and there's really no way to just switch to any job I need.

Otherwise, assassins, guardians, healers, observers... all kinds of professions would need to change jobs.

In terms of the scope of perception, Luluwei often helps to fill in the gaps.

……

The monster was completely destroyed by Luluwei, and Lu Cang appeared in front of the dead monster.

Lu Cang searched it.

This monster had an anklet on its body, which was also a type of storage container.

"First Enlightenment"

Lu Cang's senses swept across the entire cave.

The interior of the cave is covered with various symbols, all of which are part of the entire ritual.

Gollum—

As the seawater surged, Luluwei quickly returned to the inside of the cave.

"Humph--"

Luluwei snorted coldly.

Lu Cang said cheerfully, "Sister Luluwei is amazing."

"It's just killing a sixth-tier monster, what's the big deal?" Luluwei replied.

But she still couldn't hide her slightly excited emotional fluctuations.

For Luluwei, killing level 6 monsters wasn't too difficult. As long as she wasn't dealing with monsters of the Abyss level, she was basically fine.

However, it's different when someone praises you.

Imagine casually killing a sixth-tier monster in front of a stranger and hearing their praise like "Wow, that's awesome!"

Even if you've gotten used to it, you'll definitely feel a little happy inside.

This is also one of the meanings of becoming stronger.

Lu Cang smiled and said, "Killing a monster of this level in the deep sea is completely different from doing it normally."

Luluwei whispered, "What's different?"

But her face turned slightly red.

Hmm... Teasing Luluwei is really fun.

The girl I met in my past life wouldn't have had such an interesting reaction.

Lu Cang simply smiled and began to study the gains brought by this demon.

The Enlightenment Ritual is recorded in the book and is not hidden.

Instead, it is recorded directly.

After completing the enlightenment ritual, one will irreversibly transform into a corresponding type of monster.

Furthermore, one should retain one's thoughts and ideas as a human being.

Spirituality will also be transferred there.

At the same time, one can also change jobs, learn magic, and cultivate combat skills while in a demonic form.

I've already mentioned all the benefits...

What about the side effects?

Lu Cang read through the entire ritual but found no side effects recorded in it.

The biggest side effect seems to be that if the ritual is interrupted, the person will turn into a monster that is neither human nor ghost.

In other words, as long as you don't get interrupted, it's fine.

The creator of this book, "Enlightenment," and its corresponding information have already clearly emerged in Lu Cang's mind.

The place where this book was born.

It actually comes from the Nest of Mutation... Level 8 Nest.

A name that is both unfamiliar and familiar.

"The Nest of Mutation" is one of the seven major nests, mainly inhabited by monsters of various mutated types. It is also the nest with the most changes and the most complex situation.

Of the seven nests currently recorded.

The theory that it is a nest of mutations is also the most prevalent.

The ritual can only be performed by beings who haven't yet undergone a class change...

This thing that looks like a human is not actually a human, but a race from the ocean—fish-men.

A race that... could be considered intelligent beings.

His IQ is so low.

They are often difficult to distinguish from monsters.

There are even numerous rumors that while killing monsters, people mistakenly killed mermen, thinking they were monsters themselves.

If the higher-ups of the fishmen weren't truly wise and insightful beings...

Otherwise, this race might actually be classified as a type of monster.

I've heard that the Fishman King, the leader of the Fishman race, is an 8th-level Sea King, and that the Fishman race also has an 8th-level Sage whose wisdom is said to be second only to the God of Knowledge.

"However, I've never heard of any fishmen appearing near the Secret Sand Islands."

Did they appear because of my sacrifice?
Lu Cang seemed to have some guesses about the consequences of his sacrifice to the Secret Sea.

The more you sacrifice yourself.

Things that are deep in the sea are more likely to rise to the surface.

Moreover, some things that shouldn't have been seen in the first place have gradually appeared.

In fact, Lu Cang initially thought that drawing conclusions based solely on surface phenomena was insufficient.

It must have been a sacrifice that caused things from the deep sea to rise to the surface.

Now that I think about it, it probably isn't that simple. Perhaps the Secret Sea is divided into many different layers.

Not only in terms of depth, but also in terms of space.

Multiple layers of space are stacked on top of each other, but only the surface layer is usually visible. The deeper layers are revealed only when one sacrifices oneself.

That's... somewhat similar to Hunmu's theory.

The theory of the origin magic of the Chaos also mentions that everything is expressed in space, so the origin can also be explained in space.

It seems that the scope of knowledge is far greater than what I currently understand.

……

Thinking this, Lu Cang raised his hand again.

The soul light in his hand reappeared.

Gollum—

The soul faintly flowed into the secret sea...

"Lu Cang?"

Luluwei frowned.

"You still want to offer sacrifices?"

Lu Cang: "Yes, I just intend to verify some of my conjectures."

This was the first time he had ever performed a sacrifice in the sea; before, it had always been on the surface of the sea.

Lu Cang left the cave.

At this moment, in the vast sea, looking upwards.

All we could see was that as the sacrifice was performed, the sea surface kept receding into the distance.

Furthermore, everything around him gradually changed.

The mountains and rocks in the sea became even denser, as if they had appeared out of nowhere.

To be honest, these mountains are really terrifyingly large.

Even though the abyss is bottomless, they still stand tall in the ocean.

At the same time, Lu Cang actually sensed it.

Even the cave where the monster had just been killed continued to change.

With the sacrifice, an extra wide path appeared inside the cave, leading to an open space within.

"This is……"

Luluwei was also shocked by this change.

Why does the scenery here keep changing with the sacrifices? In other words, there are actually many things hidden in the Secret Sea.

It hides many secrets that are impossible to imagine. In this open space, there are many jars and some storage containers, making it look like a hidden treasure room.

If you find this place, you might gain something quite good.

But in fact.

Upon seeing the room, Lu Cang discovered a hidden secret.

"Hidden: The Realm of Secrets"

Hidden Objects: Passage

"How to activate: Solve the three different puzzles in this space in the corresponding order to activate the corresponding mechanism."

I have a feeling... I'm getting further and further away from home.

Are there other passages within the Secret Sea?

The Realm of Secrets... a place in some other realm, it feels like we've already crossed worlds.

Swah——

Lu Cang appeared directly inside the room, and with a quick scan of his senses, he saw that the puzzles were located in three corners of the room.

If you only focus on the treasures, you won't even notice the existence of these puzzles.

Lu Cang raised his hand to touch the puzzle in front of him.

How can we find the light?

The words written in the "language of light" are engraved on the wall, and below the wall is a simple, rustic platform, which seems to be used to place something.

Lu Cang's senses swept across...

With a casual lift, the water flow swept up the storage containers in the room and brought them all into Lu Cang's hands.

Lu Cang used his senses to probe each of the storage containers.

They quickly found a source of light, a tiny point of light like a firefly.

"Droplet fluorescence"

Lu Cang took out the ray of light, which fell downwards due to gravity.

It landed on the low platform without giving any feedback.

But Lu Cang had already reached another corner of the room.

Where is the thing that was never born?

Lu Cang looked at the platform to the side, where there were several unhatched eggs.

Lu Cang removed the eggs.

Place it on a low platform.

"There is only one door here, and this passage is one-way."

“Lu Cang…”

"Do you feel anything strange about this space?"

Lu Cang: "Yes, that's true."

Luluwei had already arrived beside Lu Cang.

With a thought, Lu Cang remotely activated the mechanism of the "Gate of Enlightenment"...

boom--

The giant door closed, and then two riddles in the room appeared, emitting light.

A bright blue gate appeared in the very center of the arena.

Lu Cang used the "core" to touch it.

Feedback about the information was received from it.

"The Path to the Realm of Secret Knowledge"

"Creator: Deng Lin - Hidden Knowledge: A Former Sage"

"One path leads to the realm of secrets, and on the other side exists a world of taboos that must never be known to the world."

"Luluwei, have you ever heard of the Realm of Secret Knowledge?" Lu Cang asked.

Luluwei shook her head: "No."

"Then, I'll go take a look first."

"If I haven't returned in more than 24 hours, please pass on this message to Izzy and the others."

After Lu Cang finished speaking, he walked forward.

The rehearsal of the future made Lu Cang feel fearless.

They originally intended to explore the deeper parts of the Secret Sea, but unexpectedly, they discovered such a portal as they walked.

It seems to be a portal to another world.

I don't know when I'll find a place like this again.

After all... this isn't a place you can just come to whenever you want.

Even if he were to replicate it once, Lu Cang wouldn't be able to guarantee that he could accurately locate the cave. It seems that the depth and space within the Secret Sea are constantly changing.

"okay."

Luluwei hesitated for a moment, but still respected Lu Cang's decision.

They seemed to understand why Lu Cang was so strong.

I don't know where he found these strange locations... but it seems like a pretty good stroke of luck.

If he were to explore these mysterious places from time to time.

That makes it understandable that his strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

Lu Cang stepped into the teleportation channel.

As you pass through the passage, you can feel an extremely strong spiritual activity!

Following his spiritual intuition, Lu Cang looked towards the sky!

But what I saw was... an extremely brilliant sun, filling most of the sky!
At the same time, one can also see the background of the sky, which is like countless layers of clouds, yet one can see the entire bright and glorious sky through the clouds.

What he saw was an extremely exaggerated array of colors.

The boundary between light and shadow is clear!
The colors of all things are so vibrant that they defy description! Perception becomes extremely sensitive and active; simply scanning or touching matter is like feeling the matter touch one's own skin, with a touch as sharp as tendrils.

Everything became extremely sensitive.

Lu Cang raised his hand and activated the magic—

call!
Flames formed in his palm, and Lu Cang saw an invisible fire core burning within them!
Fire core?

Lu Cang suddenly felt something.

Suddenly, I looked up at another patch of sky behind me.

All I could see was a ring that looked like a black hole, swirling in the sky!
Just like what appeared in the sky when I completed my ascension to magic!

source?

Lu Cang had only one thought left in his mind.

I could only feel my mind going blank.

call--

A gentle breeze, grass, and trees—the wind moves everything, creating a rustling sound.

Lu Cang stood there, gazing up at the empty space.

……

"Lu Cang?"

"Lu Cang".

"Lu Cang!"

A discordant feeling came over my body, a sense of weightlessness, and at the same time, a drowsy and heavy feeling.

"Hey!"

Lu Cang suddenly came to his senses, only to see Luluwei's face very close to his.

Rehearsal.

ended.

"Ah... Sister Luluwei."

Lu Cang spoke up.

Seeing that Lu Cang finally reacted, Luluwei seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Luluwei: "What happened to you all of a sudden? You didn't respond at all when I called you."

"Sorry, I got too engrossed in thinking about the problem."

Luluwei's voice was much louder: "What are you thinking about that you didn't respond for a whole minute?"

One minute?

Was I lost in thought for that long?
I was clearly rehearsing today's events when I entered the "realm of secret knowledge."

The last thing I saw...

Lu Cang suddenly thought of that huge void, which was like a black hole, with a faint light surrounding it, but the light only formed a boundary at its edge.

Unable to penetrate even a little bit inside.

After seeing it, and then.

The rehearsal was over, and Luluwei woke herself up.

what happened?
It seems that I am trying to understand, trying my best to understand, every cell in my body, every thought is trying to understand.

Ultimately, all thought stopped at that moment.

Unimaginable, incomprehensible, ultimately leading to an infinite loop.

In this case.

What's the difference between that and being dead?
Lu Cang felt a wave of fear wash over him.

Fortunately, I didn't actually go there in person, otherwise I don't know what would have happened to me.

Isn't this world far too dangerous?
This secret sea has already killed me twice.

Fortunately, it was just a rehearsal.

Moreover, it seems that even if one retains the memories after the rehearsal, their mental state will not change much and will not have a profound impact on them.

Perhaps this is what the philosophy of the soul, known as the non-divided nature of psychic knowledge, refers to.

While causing psychological and emotional trauma, it also inevitably causes deep damage to the soul.

However, upon his return, the damage to his soul was not preserved.

Therefore, their condition will recover considerably.

"Lu Cang, are you really alright?"

Lu Cang smiled back at Luluwei and said, "I'm fine."

"Oh, all right."

"I see that your recovery ability is so strong, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

"By the way, what exactly do you want me to do with you?"

Lu Cang shook his head: "Actually, there's nothing special. I just wanted Sister Luluwei to accompany me for a walk."

"The Secret Sea is about to be destroyed, I want to see it a few more times."
