Accompanied by He Ao’s gaze, the skin on his hand began to gradually transform into a jade-like texture, displaying intertwining patterns akin to wooden fish chanics, with a faint purple glow slowly seeping from beneath his skin.
The tranquil air floating above his hand seed to begin writhing at this mont, as if so eerie and bizarre entity was extending its limbs from the deepest void.
The earth beneath He Ao’s feet, which was gradually closing together, also began to writhe, as if twisted flesh was about to grow from the ground, but the form of this writhing flesh did not resemble ordinary flesh in softness, instead displaying a kind of rigid solidity.
And above the earth, the withered and scorched grass blades seed to be ’revitalized’ with vitality.
Yet, they did not sprout green buds, but rather purple, jade-like leaves, with a chanical-like glow flowing faintly beneath the surface.
He Ao flipped his hand.
The glow that had erged from beneath his skin gradually receded, and the jade-like skin also began losing its color, reverting to a semblance akin to human flesh.
If the situation had spread further, He Ao’s body would have completely mutated, transforming into a gigantic entity with a mingling of wood and chanics, exhibiting a jade-like luster that even he himself could not comprehend.
There were evident ’weaving’ structures, and strands that extended from solidified fate.
This was his ’Mythical Form.’
Or rather, his mythical state at Super mory A-level.
This form sowhat resembled the Fate Spinning Wheel, but seed to integrate other elents, and its complexity was actually several orders more advanced than the Fate Spinning Wheel.
In fact, He Ao had never completely ’seen’ his own mythical form.
Because this mythical form fundantally erged from the collapse of his rationality, after the Talent Sequences had completely spiraled out of control, resulting in his ’Angel’ form through mutation.
When his mythical form fully unfolded, it also signified his total entry into a state of madness.
Just like the King Angel, with a gigantic eye orb encircled by multiple eyeballs, that was King Angel’s mythical form.
Of course, this mythical form might not necessarily manifest when He Ao was entirely out of control. When his rationality was weakened, the mythical form would unfold to a certain extent, though never completely.
During his promotion, He Ao’s rationality nearly broke down, causing his body to mutate, almost transforming completely into the mythical state.
However, he triumphed over the Fate Spinning Wheel at the critical mont, stabilizing his rationality and completing the promotion.
Yet, that experience allowed him to gain so understanding of the mythical form when it hadn’t fully unfolded.
Firstly, in this state, the Angel Tier’s powers would be completely released, and his skills would appear slightly stronger than in a rational state.
Secondly, in the mythical form, his ’symbolism’ seed to increase, strengthening the previously felt weak ’connections’ due to the amplification of this symbolism.
In such circumstances, he would more resemble a ’god’.
But the cost was that, in this state, He Ao couldn’t completely control his own powers, his skills would release towards a chaotic and frenzied direction, unconsciously altering the mories and fate of those around him and everyone connected to him through mysticism.
At the sa ti, the pollution and madness from the Talent Sequences would also be completely unleashed, impacting not only He Ao’s own rationality but also unconsciously polluting all intelligent life in his vicinity.
As for what would happen next, He Ao had no idea, as he had not experienced the scenario where his mythical form was fully unfolded.
Yet, considering King Angel’s state, perhaps he would completely descend into madness, becoming a monster manipulated by the innate frenzy of the Talent Sequences, and solidifying into the mythical form, unable to return to human shape even if rationality was partially restored.
Rather than calling it ’Mythical Form’, He Ao thought it resembled more of a ’Madness Form’.
Of course, perhaps there’s another possibility, ’myth is madness’.
But perhaps this touches upon deeper mythical essence that He Ao’s current mysticism knowledge cannot comprehend.
Honestly speaking, after ascending to an angel, many mysticism knowledge that originally barely sufficed beca completely inadequate. Regarding many aspects of angels now, he was entirely in the dark.
If not for being forced into an absolute predicant by the Fate Spinning Wheel, compelling him to advance, he originally didn’t intend to advance so urgently.
The conflict and struggles among Higher Beings seed sharper than he originally anticipated.
For instance, why must good friends relentlessly pursue the ’Tuning Master’?
Could there be so deep-seated hatred, or was it due to issues unique to Higher Beings?
Perhaps these also involved so mysticism knowledge that he had never understood before.
Maybe this knowledge was scant even among ’angels’ in the dungeon world.
Discovering the conflict between a good friend and the Tuning Master was purely lucky, assembling a group to fight just happened to include the good friend, who revealed the enmity with the Tuning Master.
Shaking his head to dispel distracting thoughts, He Ao slowly stood up.
He glanced at Ye Ying, still surprised by the surrounding changes, and took a gentle breath.
Then, he rose, performing the ’Cultivation thod’ he had previously refined.
Invisible energy swiftly converged into his body, flowing within, then gathering into new Divine Sense.
anwhile, his gaze rested upon the personal attribute panel still visible in his field of view.
There, indeed, was another modified notation.
’Talent Sequence 144: Miracle Scholar (B-level) (Rejection)’
Before He Ao’s promotion, there wasn’t the ’Rejection’ after Miracle Scholar.
And this ’Rejection’ also manifested simply within his body.
It was the ’mutual exclusivity’ between Miracle Scholar and Super mory.
Prior to He Ao’s promotion, Super mory resided in the soul, Miracle Scholar in the flesh, neither interfering with the other, which was why He Ao had managed to maintain the coexistence of the two Talent Sequences.
But after ascending to angel, his entire body underwent mutation with the promotion, acquiring its own mythical form.
Angel’s promotion wasn’t just a change in spirit, but a simultaneous ’elevation’ of spirit and flesh.
Even though Super mory still mainly attached to the soul, the transformation and mutation of the mythical form still caused so of Super mory’s powers to overflow, extending into He Ao’s body.
This broke the previous boundary of soul belonging to soul, and flesh to flesh.
Incorporating the power of Super mory within He Ao’s flesh, thus the ’mutual exclusivity’ between the two Talent Sequences that he hadn’t encountered before appeared within his body.
This mutual exclusivity was incredibly strong, strong enough for He Ao to even perceive the force of the two Talent Sequences tearing simultaneously at his body.
He Ao could try to use the power of Super mory to forcibly suppress this mutual exclusivity, but the degree of suppression would not be strong.
The forces of mutual exclusivity between the two major Talent Sequences were stronger than He Ao anticipated, though the angel tier Super mory was several orders more powerful than the B-level Miracle Scholar, it still couldn’t completely suppress the B-level.
In fact, due to the presence of Miracle Scholar Talent Sequence, the existence form of Super mory also appeared unstable, further exacerbating the impact on He Ao’s rationality from the pollution emanating from Super mory.
Based on He Ao’s estimation, under normal circumstances, not even an angel could forcibly regain promotion of a Talent Sequence within the body.
In F-level, E-level states where a second Talent Sequence is relatively weak, though there’s mutual exclusivity and increased risk of angelic power spiraling out of control, it can still be forcibly suppressed by angelic powers.
But once entering D-level status, this mutual exclusivity would cause the angel’s own powers to face strong out-of-control risks, swiftly leading to madness, and ordinary angels might go insane at this stage, making promotion impossible under such circumstances.
Not to ntion the C-level and B-level after that.
But He Ao did not descend into madness.
This might also be why the Tuning Master was so ’concerned’ about He Ao’s state.
He Ao knew very well that under normal circumstances, if he were to promote to angel with two Talent Sequences in his possession, even if Super mory only overflowed a little power and the Miracle Scholar caused rejection, he would already be on the edge of being out of control.
The reason he could maintain the current situation was actually because there was a third kind of power inside him.
That is the ’Martial Arts’ power.
When He Ao was advancing, and his body mutated into a Mythical Form, he actually lost the sense of the energy circuits in his body at one ti.
He was sowhat worried that his martial arts energy circuits might be destroyed, and his body’s cultivation might be completely lost.
But after regaining his reason and reconstructing his human form, he found that those energy circuits had naturally reassembled, with the martial arts energy running naturally through them.
And at that ti, he already felt the ’mutual exclusion’ of the two Talent Sequences, as well as the uniqueness of the martial arts power.
Martial arts is a power that exists simultaneously in spirit and flesh.
And the power of spirit and flesh can transform into each other, with the energy of the body being able to condense into divine sense, enter the soul, and the divine sense in the soul can also operate along the energy circuits of the body.
At the sa ti, He Ao also discovered a ’detail’ he hadn’t noticed before, which was that the power of martial arts and the power of Talent Sequences were not entirely unconnected.
This connection was not conflict or fusion, but ’staining’.
Over such a long ti, He Ao had actually realized that martial arts power has strong ’plasticity’.
It could enhance He Ao’s physical fitness, strengthen weapons, and even to so extent affect the energy circuits of others.
In the Consciousness Space, He Ao even used his divine sense to replicate the Light of the Firmant, taking down the consciousness of the Fate Spinning Wheel.
This plasticity not only exists when He Ao actively uses martial arts power, but also when martial arts power intersects with the power of Talent Sequences.
During He Ao’s simultaneous promotion of the two Talent Sequences and martial arts, the martial arts gradually beca stained with the power of the two Talent Sequences, acting as a ’buffer’ of sorts.
Water and fire are naturally incompatible, but if you place a pan between them, you can heat water over the fire.
While there is still energy exchange between water and fire, it is not as violent.
Under the ’buffer’ of martial arts power, the ’conflict’ between Super mory and Miracle Scholar was not as intense as would normally be, allowing these two Talent Sequences to coexist peacefully within He Ao’s body.
However, if martial arts power could beco a buffer between the two Talent Sequences, enabling their coexistence, it should not be enough to surprise the Tuning Master so much.
In the boundless universe, martial arts power may not be rare.
Wizards even created a Trapped Destiny Plate, a world solely of martial arts.
And over the long years, it should not be unheard of for people to have tried using martial arts power as a diator, attempting to contain other Talent Sequences.
But they probably all failed, which is why the Tuning Master was so surprised to see He Ao’s two Talent Sequences coexist.
He Ao speculated that pure martial arts energy alone would likely not be able to directly serve as a buffer layer.
A pan must still be forged with fire and tempered with water.
Martial arts power must coexist with the two Talent Sequences for a long ti, simultaneously promoting and growing together, before it can blend with the powers of the two Talent Sequences and beco a buffer between them.
Pure martial arts power might buffer a bit but would likely not be able to completely counteract the mutual exclusion of the two Talent Sequences.
And then the story returns to the starting point.
eting the conditions for martial arts power and the power of the two Talent Sequences to coexist and promote over a long ti is almost impossible under normal circumstances.
F-level Talent Sequences exist directly in the body, and making two Talent Sequences and martial arts climb together — even without considering talent issues — with an F-level Transcendent’s ntal resistance, the mutual exclusion of the Talent Sequences could drive soone mad before martial arts power is cultivated.
Unless, from the start, one Talent Sequence resides in the soul, and one in the body.
And after sorting this out again, He Ao felt a chill up his spine.
To have co this far without any background in mysticism, he’s had a bit of luck on his side.
He’s like a child crossing through a mountain range flanked by cliffs in the dead of night; unable to see the cliffs on either side due to the dark, he just keeps moving forward. If he makes one wrong step, he would likely plumt into a bottomless abyss.
However, conversely, had he known all of this from the beginning, he might not have attempted the ’fierce’ operation of juggling two Talent Sequences with martial arts.
Sotis, knowing too much can be paralyzing.
Explorers are subrged in history; explorers also create history.
Of course, only the lucky explorers can create history, while those less fortunate die within it.
But knowledge is precisely what explorers discover.
The Promotion Ceremony of the Talent Sequences and many parts of the periodic table of Talent Sequences may have been determined by explorers at the cost of their lives.
Though luck played a part, at least He Ao now possessed the thod to allow two Talent Sequences to coexist and had a goal for the next promotion.
After all, the promotion to angel is the simultaneous elevation of spirit and flesh. If He Ao did not understand this, even if he managed to maintain the state of his body now, once the Miracle Scholar promoted to angel, spreading power to the soul, the ’mutual exclusion’ would beco even more terrifying.
Nonetheless, there might be reasons for the ’features’ of martial arts.
He Ao vaguely sensed that if he could elevate both Talent Sequences and martial arts power to a higher dinsion, he might touch upon so deeper facets of the world.
However, before adding more water, the pot must be made larger, and martial arts must be promoted to A-level.
He Ao was also curious about what kind of state the Martial Arts Angel would be.
Deep in thought, He Ao’s gaze swept across the silent world, and then he turned his head to look at Ye Ying nearby.
At that mont, Ye Ying also seed to sense sothing, looking at He Ao with wide eyes, and asked in confusion, "Teacher, what’s wrong?"
"Nothing, we have arrived," He Ao withdrew his gaze, shook his head, and said softly.
Then he looked up at the sky and smiled, "It’s ti to go ho."
"Huh?"
Ye Ying widened her eyes.
In the next mont, before Ye Ying could react, they both flickered on the land and found themselves inside the carriage of the old train.
He Ao had tried before; after leaving the Velora to enter the Trapped Destiny Plate, he could return to the Velora without the distance traveled by the Velora affecting it.
This ans that he could let the Velora travel on the outside while he entered the Trapped Destiny Plate to make other arrangents, and then just co out when they arrived.
As their forms stood firm, the old train erged from the void.
The reflections of the mountains appeared on the window, with bright light shining from outside the train, falling on He Ao’s smiling, blood-stained face.
