Chapter 994: Chapter 725: It’s okay, it’s still warm...
This Sword Seal Seed is completely different from the ones Roger used for inheritance before; it is a unique ability of the Axis Sword Seal.
The inner layer is the mark of the Sword Seal, while the outer layer is a chaotic eye, which at first glance somewhat resembles the eyeball of the World Serpent that Roger saw in the void.
In Kaer Morhen, those Demon Hunter Apprentices practice new methods of inheritance, allowing them to establish a sense of belonging to the entire Fraction.
This bond is implicit rather than forced, but here, the seed formed by the Axis Sword Seal inherently carries an entrancing power from the moment of its inception.
And as it grows and takes root in the other’s soul, it becomes increasingly unbreakable.
Ox knelt on the ground, looking at Roger without fervor, unable to muster any thoughts of resistance.
It was as if the person standing opposite him was his teacher, his father, everything was justifiable, with no resentment after being enslaved; that was the most terrifying part.
Roger unconsciously rubbed his temples, this action couldn’t truly alleviate the tremor deep within his soul, but at least it made him feel somewhat better.
He had only been practicing the Axis Sword Seal for a few days, and due to the soul’s injury, no matter how robust his strength, progress couldn’t be fast.
The seed formed now isn’t strong enough, manipulating a Transcendent like Ox poses no significant problem, but something stronger would require some recovery.
"Didn’t you come here to get close to Deross and check the news near the border?" Roger asked.
"Deross is just a small character who miraculously survived that catastrophe, he knows very little, only because he was on the edge of the explosion did the upper echelons notice him."
Ox showed a deferential attitude, "The aristocrats of the kingdom only care about their own interests, they want to use Deross as bait, but what they don’t know is that this pawn actually hides something else."
"A kind of contamination." freēwēbnovel.com
Ox said in a deep voice.
Roger suddenly recalled the strange changes occurring on Deross, and he realized that these curious alterations seemed somewhat familiar.
It reminded him of those people or things tainted by the Cursed Land.
"What caused his change?"
Listening to Roger’s question, Ox shook his head, "We are still investigating, some think it comes from mysterious forces deep underground, others believe it originates from that strange body!"
Roger blinked; although he had just entered the Fifth Tier, his body possessed unmistakable Fifth Tier power.
If without any measures, even if doing nothing, the twisted power would influence reality, causing effects similar to those of the Cursed Land.
Its radiation area could certainly cover several modern metropolises; this does not mean Roger’s influence is that great, but a single hair’s pull could affect the whole body.
The clash and collapse of rules will naturally lead to subsequent changes.
This world is different from Erode, it has forsaken the Bloodline Power, embarking on a completely new path, and furthermore, the world’s Energy Level is much lower than Erode’s.
If that’s the case, his body is very likely to form a region akin to the Cursed Land, where the longer the time drags on, the more intense the rules’ collisions within the area will become.
By then, maybe more creatures like Deross will appear.
Of course, Roger was only speculating from his perspective, as Ox said, maybe it’s the interference of underground forces.
In any case, he now increasingly wants to leave here and explore the fortress’s edge.
Roger patted Ox on the shoulder, who obediently stood up.
Without harming Ox, Roger obtained some crucial transcendent knowledge from his brain through the seed.
Just as he previously speculated, this world has no Bloodline Power, nor exists the previous transcendent pathways.
Everything is concentrated on the excavation and cultivation of the soul.
It is unclear whether the world’s rules limit physical development, or because the entire world’s transcendent has invested too many resources into soul research, resulting in the current situation.
Just like technology and transcendence, perhaps they can advance side by side, but focusing on one direction will inevitably lead to shortcomings in the other.
It is as such here.
Each person’s soul is unique; some are born with strong Soul Power, able to awaken when not yet an adult due to a powerful soul.
And through the feedback of Soul Power, a physically delicate woman can easily lift a boulder.
In Roger’s previous world, spells or Onmyoji Techniques indeed could inflict terrifying damage.
But they did not fundamentally amplify the spellcaster’s physical power. Like piercing a steel plate - using a gun, burning with fire, or smashing with a fist.
Though the end result is the same, the underlying logic represents different rules.
However, here, what Roger finds incomprehensible is the strong counteraction of the soul on the body.
When they release Soul Power, the body and soul at that moment achieve unification, allowing them to complete the evolution from ordinary to transcendent.
Here, transcendence is divided into four levels.
Initial Awakening, Ignition, Awakening Spirit, and Sleeplessness.
Generally corresponding to the First to Fourth Tier.
Yet, the first two stages are still acceptable, although occasionally some special abilities arise, they fundamentally remain at the soul’s stimulus to the body.
