Chapter 651: Revelation of the "Reverse" Concept

After learning about the concept of "Anti-Witch," I quickly understood what it meant.

However, one thing I couldn't figure out was: the Void is so vast, how did those Anti-Witches pinpoint me?

But thinking about it carefully, Academy Head Mei seemed to have said that… my deeds had spread.

So, assuming all my information has spread, what could others covet about me?

Two Grand Spellbooks?

However, one Grand Spellbook could not be taken away by the other party.

If they killed me, they could only acquire one piece of [Transcendent Knowledge], plus a "Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell" which had no substantial offensive power.

After all, their project could go astray, they betrayed the Witch race, and they were living well.

I didn't believe she was a Witch Scholar who could use the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell very well.

In addition, I also had a copy of the [Transcendent Knowledge] for Academy Head Mei's "Great Weakening Spell."

The things the other party could gain were summarized as: one Grand Spellbook that added no combat power and two pieces of [Transcendent Knowledge].

And she would also gain the hatred of the Main World's Witch Academy, as well as the relentless pursuit of Big Sis Bai.

Furthermore, techniques are something the other party cannot steal.

If the other party only wished to prevent the Witch race from mastering the technique of Void Information Transfer, then the reasoning makes sense…

Here at the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree laboratory, after discussing this matter as idle chatter, we continued to be busy.

After all, there was nothing to worry about here.

Everyone was a Clone, so the focus was naturally on working.

Some Clones didn't even know what annoyance was.

And after learning this news, I, who was far away at the spatial rift, also understood the reason.

Many days had passed since Big Sis Mei contacted me.

In fact, I hadn't taken the matter to heart, but my Clone took the opportunity to find out, so now I also knew.

“Anti-Witch… does such a magical project exist…”

I chuckled softly, then prepared to continue my own work.

However… this concept quickly gave me a brand new idea!

The hand I was about to use to continue my stay at the edge of the rift paused.

If even the project could have a rebellious branch, then under the Great Soul Project's branch, wouldn't "Ordinary Soul" also have a "Rebellious Soul"?

Or should it be called… "Transcendent Soul"?

Born Transcendent… If such a project truly existed, wouldn't it be perfect for Witches born from two Transcendent Witches?

This seemed to make sense too.

If being born Transcendent and walking the path of the Transcendent Soul was a gift from heaven, then the Ordinary Soul should be like us, striving to change our destiny through our own efforts.

And at the same time, at the Witch Academy in the Core Realm.

“Big Sis Bai, can I ask you a question, please?”

“Sure, what do you suddenly want to ask me?”

“It's about the projects.”

“Projects?”

Big Sis Bai was also surprised, but she knew Xiao Han had recently been exposed to this concept, so curiosity was normal.

“Go ahead, ask.”

“Big Sis Bai, does the Ordinary Project have an opposing project under the Great Soul Project?”

“Opposing project? What do you mean?”

“Look, Big Sis Bai, yours is the Ordinary Project, so is there a non-ordinary project? That is… the Transcendent Project!”

“Non-ordinary project… Hmm, I don't recall hearing about it much, but it makes sense to have an opposing project. However, the Transcendent that opposes Ordinary probably shouldn't be confused with the concept of Transcendent used for advancement.”

Big Sis Bai thought carefully before answering.

“Oh… so they can't be confused…”

I quickly realized my mistake.

“Yeah, you haven't been led astray by some strange idea of your own, have you?”

Big Sis Bai asked with a smile.

“Well… I have been led astray. I need Big Sis Bai's kisses and hugs to feel better…”

“Alright.”

Big Sis Bai helplessly stepped forward but her outstretched hands directly pinched my cheeks to her heart's content, before lightly planting a kiss on my forehead.

“Okay then I'll take that as satisfying me.”

I placed my hand on Big Sis Bai's hand, but not to take it away, but to help her pinch a few more times.

“Since Big Sis Bai likes it… how about Big Sis Bai sleeping with me as a body pillow tonight?”

“That… wouldn't be appropriate, would it?”

“Isn't it? Being able to be used as Big Sis Bai's body pillow, then this Clone can be considered fulfilled, right? Actually, it's no different from a cylindrical body pillow stuffed with cotton, only more real. Or is Big Sis Bai afraid I'll secretly kiss you with the Clone at night?”

“Xiao Han, why are you always thinking about lewd things?”

“Because I'm the Clone that accompanies Big Sis Bai So it's only normal to have an extra amount of yellow garbage in my mind, isn't it? Please How about I play dress-up games with you tonight? I have plenty of time to spend with you!”

***

Here in the Expansion Realm.

Although I didn't get confirmation on a Transcendent Soul project, I did get some other Revelation: that within the same system, rebellion was also a choice.

So, could the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell be used in reverse to become the Great Wisdom Deprivation Spell?

Just the name sounded chilling, because life that once possessed wisdom would instinctively fear the deprivation of wisdom.

And… this didn't seem like an impossible thing to achieve, it's just that I didn't have a clue yet.

After all, even if I experimented with Mutated Beasts, I used the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell to endow them with wisdom, but dispelling the spell effect did not mean the deprivation of wisdom…

Thinking of this, I suddenly realized something was wrong!

Was what I called "bestowing wisdom" truly bestowing wisdom, or merely a spell effect?

The thought immediately sent a chill down my spine!

But quickly, I realized that it was not, because the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell merely enlightened wisdom, not bestowed it.

Enlightenment was the spell effect of this spell.

Just like the "crystallization" process of the Crystallization Spell was the spell effect, and the crystal formed was the actual substance itself.

Understanding this intellectually was one thing, but I seemed to have realized the error in my own thinking… that I had confused bestowing wisdom with enlightening wisdom.

But after I understood this, an idea surfaced again.

That is, the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell seemed to be able to derive another technique that utilized its spell effect!

"Wisdom Bestowal"!

A technique that complemented the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell, completing the bestowal of wisdom in an instant by combining the act of enlightenment with this technique!

Subsequently, I summarized this technique based on my own inspiration and mastered abilities…

But I wasn't very happy after mastering this technique.

I just felt a little stupid… because I should have thought of this earlier, simply by distinguishing between the spell effect and the spell technique.

However, this technique was not perfect, because it could only be used on life forms that were inherently life and possessed a foundation of wisdom.

Those seemingly unintelligent life forms merely lacked the enlightenment of wisdom; they inherently had this foundation.

But what if I wanted to create a life form that had no foundation of wisdom itself?

Therefore, the Wisdom Bestowal technique needed a prerequisite: creating the foundation for it.

Then, thinking back, did Fool's Dream have a foundation of wisdom?

Honestly, looking at Fool's Dream's near-ability to integrate into human society with their communication skills and emotional expression, I really wanted to say that Fool's Dream had this foundation.

But the truth was… I didn't know.

Actually, the answer to this question could be simpler: simply researching and dissecting Dream State creatures should make it clear, right?

Did an existence like a Dream State creature have a foundation of wisdom?

It remembers things, has emotions, and can interact with people.

It certainly seems to have wisdom.

I could even communicate with Dream State creatures using the Consciousness Communication Spell.

So, what was this?

An illusion of the Dream State?

No sooner said than done.

Any problem whose answer could not be derived from deep thought could be solved directly through practical operation to get the most intuitive answer.

So, I directly used my Domain to create a Dream State Overlap area, and then "fished" for a group of Dream State creatures using Soul Crystals.

After catching the Dream State creatures, I directly subjected them to a massive transformation…

I gave it a Mimetic Soul, endowed it with the concept of reality, then the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell, and finally utilized the Wisdom Bestowal technique…

I watched the entire process like this, constantly repeating, constantly acquiring information, and not letting go of any tiny detail.

I continued this experiment for three days.

On the ridge beneath the spatial rift, I seemed to have gotten used to it.

I didn't feel any discomfort from doing the same thing for three days because I had no regrets, and my mindset was calm and focused.

Nothing could distract me, because the excitement of the Expansion Realm was being experienced by my innumerable Clones.

Three days of continuous attempts made me realize one truth: Dream State creatures were just Dream State creatures, a fragile form of existence that possessed nothing.

If you asked about those things that looked like wisdom, memory, and emotion, they were all abstract expressions of the Primal Dream State.

Yes, all those things were "simulated" by the Dream State itself.

For example.

The Primal Dream State was like a computer.

The existences and perceptible things within the Dream State were all code, and that code was "random" and almost "infinite."

Therefore, some anomalous states might unexpectedly give birth to some strange, functional "meaningful" programs, and Dream State creatures were the product of this analogy.

But it was also in recognizing this reality that I became more certain that the unfinished technique of Soul Portrayal could help Fool's Dream shape the foundation of reality's meaning.

And during these days, I hadn't been completely idle. Or rather, I wasn't just researching Dream State creatures these past few days, but also myself.

Because I was using myself to confirm what the foundation is for being enlightened by a Grand Spellbook?

After all, I had used the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell on myself.

Why could only life be the carrier?

This model brought to mind a very vivid "imagery."

That is, if the soul is compared to soil, wisdom is the unsprouted seed buried in the soil, and wisdom enlightenment is watering that dry soil.

The Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell's effect was not only to help the "seed" of wisdom sprout; it also affected the "soil" of the soul to a certain extent, making it moist and providing a suitable environment for the seed to sprout.

And my Wisdom Bestowal technique seemed like "fertilizing," or more vividly, like the "Growth Acceleration Spell."

It shortened this long process to a visible extent.

But this was not enough.

How could Wisdom Bestowal only be "fertilizing"?

What if the target I faced had neither the soil of the soul nor the existence of the seed of wisdom?

Therefore, the essence of Wisdom Bestowal should be the bestowal of the "Seed of Wisdom," with fertilization being merely an auxiliary effect.

And currently, I also had a direction.

If the keywords for "Wisdom Life" were wisdom and life, then it could now be simplified to "Soul Essence" and "Seed of Wisdom."

The shaping of the Soul Essence corresponded to "Soul Portrayal," and the shaping of the Seed of Wisdom corresponded to "Wisdom Bestowal."

Coincidentally, both of these techniques… one had a direction but was unfinished, and the other was started but had no follow-up.

But difficulty… difficulty was the thing I feared least now.

What I feared was lack of direction.

Who would have thought that a mere concept like "Anti-Witch" would bring me so much to contemplate?

Although at first, I only intended to use the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell in reverse to deprive wisdom.

Although I couldn't bestow wisdom now, it was because I didn't know what wisdom was.

Once I defined it as the "Seed of Wisdom" concept, many things could be understood by me.

Perhaps I couldn't achieve the Wisdom Bestowal technique, but I had many ideas for the reverse application of this technique.

After all, creating something from nothing was extremely difficult, but if it already existed, forceful seizure was surely infinitely simpler than creation.

And I had to do so.

After all, my current understanding of the abstract concept of the Seed of Wisdom was only theoretical speculation.

Only by truly coming into contact with it could I research it, and only then could I understand it.

After understanding it, the refinement progress of the Wisdom Bestowal technique would catch up with Soul Portrayal.

Finally, I would only need to understand the Soul Project, to understand how to use Soul-substance to shape the advanced soul, to completely perfect "Soul Portrayal."

As for Wisdom Bestowal… I didn't know if the Great Soul Project had a wisdom branch project.

If not, I would have to slowly explore it myself, and I would also need to find the "raw material" for wisdom.

Just as the soul is shaped by Soul-substance, what about wisdom?

It couldn't be created from thin air.

I figured it out and established my goal.

After understanding what I needed to do, how to do it, and what the path was, I was no longer confused.

First, I needed to perfect Wisdom Bestowal, understand what the Seed of Wisdom was, then master the reverse application of Wisdom Bestowal, enriching my means, and finally, use the reverse application to deduce the process of creation from nothing, completely perfecting Wisdom Bestowal.

In fact, I could do the same for Soul Portrayal, but I couldn't find a Soul Life that I could experiment on.

Everyone in the Main World where I resided was fundamentally made of Soul-substance, so I couldn't deduce it backward, and those with Soul Essence were Witches, and I couldn't attack a Witch.

But wisdom was different.

Everyone had wisdom.

As long as it was life, it had a foundation of wisdom, even Mutated Beasts.

With abundant raw materials, experiments felt simple.

At this moment, I looked up at the spatial rift in the sky.

I no longer had much interest in it.

It had given me some spatial understanding for the time being, and provided me with many Revelations regarding the Spatial Teleportation Spell.

And now, my Teleportation Spell, after simple modding and derivation, was expected to achieve the ability to teleport others.

But all of that was just the limit.

One must know how to choose and prioritize.

Inspiration and Revelation concerning the Grand Spellbook were more important.

If I achieve some results, perhaps the Academy Head would personally open a spatial rift for me if I wanted to research a spell derivation related to space later?

However, I inclined to believe that at that time, I might be able to tear space apart with my bare hands myself.

Because I had confidence in my growth.
