Wizard's Journey

Chapter 175 The Face of Truth: Phase One Project

The four conditions for the creation of chimeras.

A massive amount of activated life's flesh and blood, an activated heart that never stops beating, a corpse-refining array, and elemental souls.

Among them, the knowledge of the basic formulation and enhancement of activated flesh and blood, the regenerative stimulation of activated heart, and the fusion and upgrading of elemental souls belong to the knowledge of the transformation and upgrading of synthetic beasts. Only the Corpse Refining Synthesis Array belongs to the true core of the mystery of the life and death of synthetic beasts.

The Corpse Refining Synthesis Array is a crystallization of the profound wisdom of life and death passed down from ancient black wizards, and it has not undergone any major changes to date. Therefore, learning the basic knowledge of synthetic beasts is actually just learning to identify and distinguish synthetic beast materials and the Corpse Refining Synthesis Array.

The basic knowledge of activating flesh and blood, formulation and stimulation modification, Green knows that the malignant giantification modification of bald gironite is one of them.

As for the regenerative stimulation of the activated heart, it refers to the fact that after the host dies, the energy power of the activated heart will drop significantly. This requires the wizard to use certain advanced knowledge to perform regenerative stimulation, which is what Guilini mentioned when she traded the activated heart to Green.

As for the elemental soul fusion technology, it involves artificially synthesizing and upgrading several natural elemental souls into one.

Elemental Souls can only be synthesized and upgraded once. Therefore, the number of Elemental Souls synthesized is the only criterion for judging the sophistication of this academic knowledge.

His eyes flickered.

Unlike other newly promoted witch hunters, Green has developed his own unique way of thinking about knowledge through long-term independent thinking, research, and pioneering learning and analysis.

This is a way to explore the essence of knowledge by removing its superficial appearance, and thus grasp some of its truths and mysteries more quickly.

For example, the knowledge of corpse refining and array formation at this time.

If it were an ordinary wizard, their first reaction would probably be to forcibly memorize everything about the entire corpse synthesis array.

The entire corpse refining and synthesis array is divided into six energy base points, two hundred and sixteen energy reaction nodes, seven thousand seven hundred and ninety-two energy collision reaction zones, and three million five hundred and thirty-seven thousand nine hundred and ninety-four basic magic runes.

Of the 3,537,994 basic magic runes, 273,600 require reasonable modifications based on the activated flesh and blood materials…

Overall, this is a massive memory project, even for a formal wizard.

However, Green's difference lies in the fact that Green's so-called learning is to reverse-engineer this corpse synthesis array, thereby organizing, analyzing, and summarizing the rules and knowledge involved.

In this way, if Green needs to draw a corpse synthesis array in the future, he only needs to draw 273,600 basic magic runes based on the flesh and blood materials, and then use the knowledge of the rules to perform correct reasoning, and he can carry out corpse synthesis anytime and anywhere.

Both seem to have the same result, but it's easy to overlook a key factor.

The former, through rote memorization, only learns the knowledge of other wizards, resulting in a dead, lifeless knowledge; while the latter, through reasoning, learns its own knowledge or a set of rules.

One's own knowledge can be further innovated based on other knowledge systems; it is a rule of active application.

……

A month later.

In the alchemy lab, Green gazed at the perfectly integrated rune system on the experimental platform, his eyes revealing undisguised delight.

The first step towards the truth has finally been completed!

By combining ultrasonic sorcery and the Eye of the End, only about one-tenth of the internal volume of the Surface of Truth has been consumed, leaving enormous room for expansion.

According to the plan, in the long years after Green returns from this demon-hunting expedition, the Face of Truth will fully incorporate the "Eagle Eye" and "Boundless Eye" spells, thus bringing the Face of Truth one step closer to maturity.

Overjoyed, Green put down the quill that had just finished drawing the last magic rune, then capped the numerous high-grade magic inks to seal them completely. Only then did he extend a delicate, slender, pale hand to touch the unfolded alien marrow-transformed paper.

Boo!

Like a ripple on a calm lake, as a surge of magic power emanated from Green's palm, the alien marrow, which had spread out like paper, instantly contracted into a ball. In less than a second, according to its original memory, it transformed into a gray-white mask that perfectly matched Green's facial features.

On the mask, a huge purplish-gray spiral pattern is imprinted, which is the externalized rune of the ultrasonic witchcraft positioning technology.

Picking up the Mask of Truth, Grimm put it on his face, and in an instant, Grimm felt as if the world before him had changed.

like……

A thin membrane has appeared between the appearance of reality and the rules of truth.

Every appearance of reality must have a deeper mystery guided by its own rules, but most of the ignorant life forms in the endless world can only see the appearance and cannot see the deeper truth.

Even the wisest wizards are limited by their perception abilities and can only deduce deeper truths from the surface phenomena of reality, thus forming witchcraft.

Green's Plan of the Face of Truth is an epic magical artifact that allows wizards to enhance their ability to perceive reality in order to deduce the rules of truth!

Only in this way can we see the true nature of reality.

Almost instinctively, Green took out the two broken branches. Under the Mask of Truth, Green's eyes were as calm as an abyss. A bolt of lightning appeared on the mask, which was the Mask of Truth activating the Eye of Darkness mode.

puff……

A lightning rune flashed and disappeared at the sharp, mirror-like cut of the broken branch!

However, in Green's eyes at that moment, this so-called fleeting lightning rune was not a rune at all; it was just a stray manifestation of a lightning spot that conformed to some kind of rule.

To put it metaphorically, it's like individual lightning elements moving around the broken branch at extremely high speed according to some kind of pattern.

After the Thunder Base Point emitted a wave of light from the calm surface of the broken branch and the Thunder Mirror, it circled the surface of the Thunder Mirror according to its unique rules. Green's body felt as if it had been electrocuted, and he suddenly felt a jolt.

hiss!

This……

"So, when I was observing the broken branches and cuts, I wasn't trying to comprehend the so-called lightning runes at all. I was just passively letting my soul accept the lightning base points that jumped around in rules. Just now, I could feel that I absorbed a full third of that pulsating lightning base point. In other words, I only need to use the Eye of Darkness to accept lightning base points three times to achieve the results of my more than ten years of hard work as a wizard apprentice?"

His eyes revealed a mixture of joy and shock as he pondered deeply.

"The lightning power of two broken branches is so immense that heaven knows how many hidden lightning points are within them. But without a doubt, these lightning points must correspond to a certain rule, and as I continue to absorb these lightning points, my physical attributes will gradually gravitate towards that rule, and then a bolt of lightning from that rule will descend, completely transforming my body into a physique similar to this broken branch."

But the key point is!

What exactly is the use of this "physique" formed by the rules of thunder?

In any case, Green has not found any use for the lightning power in the two broken branches so far.

To understand the purpose of the deeper rules beneath the surface of the thunderous power in these two broken branches, there are only two paths: one is to do what the ancient wizards did, and to obtain certain results through repeated, luck-based experiments.

Another task is to understand the energy source and foundation of this thunderous rule, and then deduce its purpose.

However, whatever the outcome, there is no doubt that Green will delve into the true mysteries of these two broken branches, so absorbing and transforming this rule-based constitution is inevitable.

Green couldn't imagine how many tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Thunder Base Points it would take him to absorb them with his naked eyes without the perfect assistance of the Eye of the End.

Such a long and arduous era could probably only be foreseen by a true spirit wizard.

Before any formal wizard advances to the level of a Saint Mark or True Spirit Wizard, their soul absolutely cannot remain uncorrupted for more than an epoch. This is one of the fundamental rules of balance in the endless world.

An era is ten thousand years in the wizarding world, or forty-three million eight hundred thousand standard hourglasses.

Later.

"Little Eight!" Green shouted, and the space on his shoulder twisted, revealing a myna bird with brightly colored feathers.

"Young Master Grin! Don't you think it's impolite to disturb the afternoon nap of a great steel-striped myna? You know... uh, what are you going to do with it?" When the myna saw the bone in Grin's hand, it immediately recalled some embarrassing and painful memories and shut its mouth in an instant.

Green turned his head and glanced at the myna bird.

Gaa gaa gaa!

Seemingly trying to hide its embarrassment, the myna bird pointed a wing at Grimm's Face of Truth and said, "Hooray! Young Master Grimm's Face of Truth has finally completed the first phase of construction! Congratulations! Putting aside Young Master Grimm's unique and great creation within, which is simply a revolutionary innovation that transcends the wizarding era, its mysterious and majestic aura alone is enough to make countless villains submit. Look at these patterns, these colors—how perfectly natural, self-contained, and exquisitely crafted it is..."

A full quarter of an hour later, Xiao Ba's mouth was dry from talking, and Green finally said, "Finished? If you're done, fly to the Tree of Life and do what I told you to do before. Hmph, you know the consequences if you don't complete it!"

Green glared at the myna bird, and in an instant, the creature vanished through the window in a blur.

In terms of flight speed alone, Green is no match for this guy, and no one knows how this guy flies so fast.

After one hourglass period.

After using his long-range teleportation technique, Green stared at the still distant Tree of Life, his face so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.

This so-called long-distance teleportation only covered half the distance between its Demon Hunter Castle and the Tree of Life. That damned myna must have forgotten some basic fraction distinctions when calculating the origin coordinates, which is why it produced such an effect when adjusting the spatial origin coordinates.

Does brain size and the soul determine a living being's computational ability?

snort!

With a cold snort, Green's shoulders twisted, and the myna bird appeared.

"Ah! Just one more month, and your beautiful, noble, loyal, pure, kind, and gentle little Hachi will definitely complete..." Seeing the bone that Green was about to throw out, and that it was heading towards the densely populated Tree of Life, Hachi was so frightened that its fur stood on end.

If he actually went there and barked like a dog to pick up bones, he'd be ruining his reputation.

Green stopped swinging his arm, glared fiercely at the myna bird on his shoulder, and after a long silence, he said menacingly, "Fine, I'll give you another month! If you still can't do it after a month, I'll make you bark like a dog and pick up bones a thousand times."

After saying that, Green flew towards the Demon Hunter Castle in frustration.

In the sky, the myna bird, which hadn't moved an inch, shrieked as it watched Grimm fly away, "Damn Grimm! I, your Eighth Master, have consumed your primordial soul fire! How dare you speak to me like that! Damn it, if you piss me off, I'll drink poison, and you won't have a good life either! Waaaaah, I returned to the Endless World to enjoy myself, not to suffer! You damned summoned beast, do you think I'll submit to you? Sooner or later, you'll become my servant material, just like that old bastard! Waaaaah, you bastard, if you're so capable, don't use your bones, don't use your spacetime connection talent, don't..."
