112: Three major source seas

"Yes!"

Hatties took his leave.

Li Ke's eyes were deep, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he watched Hatties's departing figure.

Hatties's Black Flame Divine Ability had indeed brought him a surprise.

Cultivating the Nine Lives Spiral Power was inherently a path of nine deaths and one life, seeking Breakthroughs between life and death.

And the characteristic of Black Flame to plunder life force just happened to greatly increase the fault tolerance rate of Cultivation and improve the success probability of Breakthroughs.

With the two complementing each other,

Not only did it pave the way for Hatties's future,

Soon, he would be able to catalyze the entire guard team to the level of entering fate, becoming a truly powerful force.

He finally had a group of usable people under his command...

As for Hatties's loyalty,

Li Ke was not worried.

Both Barton and Hatties were in very special situations.

Although neither of them had the Dao Heart Demon Seed planted.

Both of them had forcibly observed the demon-referencing tablet through his Divine Soul.

At the moment of receiving the Legacy, their Divine Souls had been completely branded with Li Ke's mark.

For the Demonic Path will of the demon-referencing tablet,

They and Li Ke were one.

Or rather, Barton and Hatties were considered Li Ke's sub-entities.

This connection had long been integrated into the Legacy and deeply ingrained.

As long as they continued to Cultivate, they would become more and more respectful of Li Ke, making it difficult to disobey him.

The strength of this restraint was no weaker than the Dao Heart Demon Seed.

What's more, they had been with Li Ke for a long time,

And had long been permeated by the power of All Things Demon Infusion,

As the source of the Demonic Path in this world,

As long as Li Ke called out, all their Devilish Qi would be summoned and flow into Li Ke's body...

...

Night deepened.

In the study, Li Ke sat cross-legged, flipping through an old, tattered book.

Under the dim lamplight, his dark red hair was bathed in a soft glow.

This book was the Arcanist's notebook he had bought at the auction earlier.

During the day,

A piece of information Hatties unintentionally mentioned in his report caught Li Ke's attention.

At the moment of Awakening a transcendent Bloodline, the Divine Soul would touch an illusory ocean that only existed in concept.

The Sea of Ancestors.

That was the common Origin of all transcendent Bloodlines in this world.

This instantly sparked Li Ke's interest in the Origin of this world.

If it were in the Cultivation world,

This would already be considered touching the Dao Law,

At least one would have to wait until the Soul Transformation and Void Refining Realm to have a chance.

He didn't expect that the Origin power of this world would manifest so early.

Li Ke carefully read through the Arcanist's notebook,

Indeed, the notebook recorded the source of the Arcanist's power,

It was also a sea of concepts.

The Sea of Elements.

The notebook also mentioned that those lofty gods,

The place where they lived was called the Astral Realm.

Also known as the Sea of Faith.

Li Ke put down the book and tapped his fingertips gently on the desk.

"Bloodline, Arcane, Divine Arts..."

"Sea of Ancestors, Sea of Elements, Sea of Faith..."

"So that's it, the three major transcendent systems of this world are built upon these three great Origins."

Then, the unremovable distortion and alienation on the Bloodline nobles...

Does it mean that one of the world's Origins, the Sea of Ancestors, has been contaminated by some kind of power?

The moment this thought arose, Li Ke's eyes suddenly became profound.

If one Origin had a problem.

What about the other two?

Could the Sea of Elements and the Sea of Faith remain untouched?

Thinking of this, Li Ke suddenly became interested in further research on transcendent Bloodlines.

He wanted to personally touch the Sea of Ancestors,

To see what it was that had the power to erode the Origin of a world.

After all, he was within this world,

Upon reaching the Soul Transformation and Void Refining Realm, he would inevitably begin to refine the Dao of heaven and earth and come into contact with the world's Origin,

Whatever could contaminate the world's Origin would eventually affect him.

If he didn't prepare early, it would be troublesome if he were accidentally contaminated...

Moreover, what was interesting was that,

After Fusing multiple transcendent Bloodlines,

The transcendent Bloodline in Hatties's body should be at least at the Gold level.

But there were no signs of contamination or erosion on him.

Does this indicate that the True Spirit Blood Fusion Secret Method, this act of re-Fusing Bloodlines,

Can, to a certain extent, remove the contamination in the Sea of Ancestors...

If that were truly the case...

A slight curve appeared at the corner of Li Ke's mouth.

Perhaps he could take this opportunity to extract some wool from the world's Origin.

However, he couldn't rush.

He needed to find more test subjects, at least,

To try different Bloodline Fusions and observe them for a long time.

Only after confirming it was safe would he consider trying it himself.

"It seems I need to find a way to collect more transcendent Bloodlines."

"In this regard, Morgana might be able to help."

Li Ke thought silently, calculating the forces he could use.

One Demon Seed had already been released,

Celestine, as a natural Devil Head, would likely have terrifying growth speed after the Dao Heart Demon Seed.

The White Bone Bodhisattva World-Destroying Heart Sutra itself was a strange Demonic Technique that utilized the Power Of Faith from incense.

She was now lurking in Oak Tree Cathedral.

Li Ke remembered very clearly that,

That Knight Commander Tyre had once invoked the incense power from Oak Tree Cathedral.

That immense accumulation made Li Ke's heart pound.

Allowing a Cultivator of the White Bone Bodhisattva World-Destroying Heart Sutra to be in front of such a vast amount of incense power was Li Ke letting a mouse guard a rice bin...

Li Ke's expression became a bit strange.

"It probably won't be long before a drastic change occurs in Oak Tree Cathedral."

"For now, I won't activate this hidden piece."

Li Ke turned his thoughts and looked out at the dark Charles Manor.

Now, the growth paths of Barton and Hatties were basically formed.

Butler Barton, relying on the Sealing Demon Spirit Feeding Secret Method, coexisted with the strange entities in the castle.

As long as there were more and more strange and demonic creatures in this Manor, Barton's power would also rise accordingly.

Ultimately, he might be able to transform the entire Charles Manor into a demonic lair.

This path was somewhat similar to the Earth Immortal Dao rumored in the Cultivation world, achieving the same goal through different means.

And Hatties, on the other hand, took a completely different path.

He tempered his Physical Body with the Nine Lives Spiral Skill and evolved his Bloodline with the True Spirit Blood Fusion Secret Method.

He was more Li Ke the Human Immortal Dao in the Cultivation world, specializing in the Physical Body, standing tall, or the Witch Clan, impervious to all spells, plucking stars and seizing the moon.

"Having accumulated so much power, I've finally gained a firm foothold in this world."

Li Ke stretched leisurely,

From the desk, he picked up a beautifully crafted, gilded invitation card, adorned with an exquisite oak branch and leaf emblem.

This was an invitation to the Oak Tree Earl's Mansion's celebratory banquet.

In a few days, it would be time to meet,

The other victors in the Oak Tree Territory after this "cleansing operation."

Perhaps, he could also collect some good transcendent Bloodlines.
