episode_0087

First, I absorbed the abilities of clairvoyance and clairvoyance.

Two superpowers that fall into place smoothly.

Now I tried to make it one with the demonic eye.

Simultaneous stacking, casting magical energy into supernatural power, incorporating magical energy into the magical eye…

After three days of trying so many different things,

I realized that there was no hope for fusion by these means.

‘There is no response. Rather, there is a reaction between clairvoyance and clairvoyance.’

The deterioration of the Demon Eye was not as severe as I thought.

No, the tendency to not mix with supernatural powers was too strong as it was a different kind of power.

Rejecting different laws of the universe.

It was like a semi-familiar experience to me.

It didn’t go as smoothly as it did when merging Oedan and Supersangshin, but there’s nothing we can do about it.

I took out a new object from subspace.

The essence of the eye.

An essence that looks like human eyes, obtained by wiping out the Tatar tribe.

“I wasn’t going to do something crazy like this.”

What I’m trying to do is melt the essence of the snow and inject it into my eye.

In my experience so far, mixing rules requires an essential approach.

And this essence was a power that was somewhat close to the essence, and would bring about fundamental changes to the eyeball.

Moreover, maybe we can bypass the common sense that only one essence can be absorbed.

Of course, for my own safety and for more successful results, I tried the experiment on another being first.

“Wow! Squeak!”

An ordinary monkey living near Anu’s Mountain.

This guy doesn’t have vital energy.

It means that the conditions are similar to mine.

Because it does not have essence, it cannot absorb essence.

So, what would happen if the purified water was dissolved and forcibly injected in this state?

[melt, extract, purify]

I tried using magic to melt the bone-like essence.

I had to use three magic words to melt the essence into pure power.

And this power is magically injected into the monkey’s bones.

What are the results of the experiment?

It failed because the monkey’s bones exploded like a shotgun.

It looks like there was too much force injected.

I brought a new test subject and continued the experiment.

The deer failed because thorns sprouted from the bone and internal bleeding occurred.

The rabbit failed because its bones melted and it died.

Wild boar, success.

They barely succeeded by strengthening the boar’s body with a very small amount of injection and magic.

However, it was not the change I expected.

Instead of special changes occurring in the bones, the vital energy was awakened.

‘Where did the bone properties go?’

No matter how much you check, pig bones are just ordinary bones.

This pig has not even absorbed the essence.

I thought about this for a while and it made sense.

The essence body eventually grows by absorbing the vital energy.

There is nothing strange at all if the power extracted by dissolving the essence itself contains vital energy.

Moreover, what I wanted was not a specific physical change, just a little trigger.

My plan to strengthen my body with essence extract was ruined, but there was no problem.

After confirming the safety and variables through several experiments after the wild boar, I extracted the power from the essence of the eye and injected it into my eye, using the powers of the magic eye, clairvoyance, and clairvoyance.

An extract of the essence that successfully settles with the assistance of magic.

I momentarily lost vision and sensation in my eyes.

A sight where light has disappeared from the world, a vision filled with only darkness.

And I can’t feel some of the magic and supernatural power contained in the eyes.

I was trying to check the condition of my eyeballs with my extra senses, but stopped when I noticed something writhing in my field of vision.

Sudden headache and unknown information that cannot be understood.

What is that?

It felt like something was writhing, and when I recognized it, my supernatural mind seemed to be momentarily distorted.

Haven’t my eyes gone blind for a while now?

What did I see that was affecting my mind?

I frowned and tried to check the wriggling thing closely, but before I could, my vision returned.

A vision that penetrates as if penetrating all the essence of the world.

But I didn’t pay attention to that view and thought about the sight I had seen earlier.

The wriggling thing I saw was probably…

It must have been a scene where completely different laws related to the magical eye, supernatural power, and spirit clashed and mixed.

In an instant, the realm of the law was brought into view.

I tried to trace the rules by recalling my memories from earlier, but even my memories were distorted.

At my level, I can’t even touch the shadow of the law yet.

Instead, I thought about the law.

“Law… All alien abilities that transcend reality belong to the law.”

Every other universe has its own unique abilities, and the proof was that the composition of existence changed every time I went to another universe.

It is a different ability that belongs to the laws of each universe.

In the end, the extreme point of different abilities is the law.

So, can I create my own new law at the end of this process of colliding and merging laws?

My own laws, my own abilities, my own powers.

I was half-convinced that this was the path I should take.

If you collect and combine abilities like this, it’s clear…

You will be able to become an immortal, transcendent, god-like being.

I came out of my thoughts and focused on my newly reborn magic eye.

A vision that looks straight at the essence.

As a test, I looked at the tribesmen of Aenu and was able to clearly see the three essences of existence.

The essence of life, Od.

The essence of spirit, Spirit.

The essence of the soul, Ether.

I decided to name this magical eye the essence magical eye.

Then I turned my gaze and saw Aenu’s Mountain.

“There really are so many hidden spirits.”

The spirit of dust, the spirit of oxygen, the spirit of fallen leaves, the spirit of mice…

There were countless spirits that were so insignificant that they were difficult to recognize, but boasted great stealth skills that even eluded my extra senses.

There was even a B-level spirit hiding in this mountain.

The spirit of spring.

The concept of spring, one of the four seasons, was hidden in this mountain.

I moved to a place near the top of the mountain.

Then he looked into the sky and opened his mouth.

“Spring, won’t you talk to me?”

Even if the spirits don’t understand human language, it doesn’t matter.

Because I have a barbell.

Even if you can’t take control of the spirit’s mind, it will convey its meaning.

I remember Babel interpreting text and what was written in books.

As I expected, the air shook, sending mental waves to me, and Babel translated them.

-Who are you? Why did you call yourself Loa?

“I am the Heavenly Demon, Im Yuhan. The reason I called myself Loa was because I thought I had the power and qualifications to do so.”

-I can’t understand you. I cannot recognize your presence. I cannot know your strength and essence.

“It’s good to ask questions, but there has to be a price for that, right? I will answer your question if you answer mine. It’s okay to understand that this is a contract.”

ㅡPerform the contract. promise a contract carry out the contract

“Okay, actually, my appearance in Anu’s tribe was… an accident that occurred while I was moving across space. Actually, I am a stranger and not from here. You cannot understand me because you come from a place where you cannot understand me.”

I told the appropriate truth. It’s not wrong anyway.

-Stranger? Yes. You are a stranger. I am not a child of this star. You are a child from another star. understood. understood.

The spirit of spring who made a small mistake, a mistake that I somewhat intended.

“Okay, I will ask you two questions, combining the first one and the current one. Is that okay?”

-Do whatever you want. Do as you wish. Do as you promise.

“Can you tell me what you know about dragons?”

I trusted Babel’s translation. It will automatically pick up the concept of dragon and translate it.

ㅡDragon. It is nature’s predator and enemy. The pinnacle of spirits belonging to life. A member of the great Loa. A person who walks a star path on his own. 9,631 springs ago, it ate the sea, and 6,279 springs ago, it was injured while fighting a mountain range and went into hiding. The mountains tracked him, but they could not find him.

There really was a dragon in this world.

By the way, 9,000 or 6,000 years ago?

This world has a good power balance, but the time scale is strange.

“Thank you for your reply. If you don’t know where the dragon is hiding, can a spirit that knows tell you?”

-I know where you are hiding. Summer whispered to me. The dragon hid on the island in the sky. The island in the sky continues to flow. Now is it okay if I ask the question again? Do promises last?

“Good. Let’s exchange just one more answer.”

ㅡWhy are you looking for the dragon? Do you want to become a dragon too? The dragon is a Loa among Loa.

Loa of Loa? Does that mean it’s S-class? It may be harder to kill a dragon than you think. Moreover, since it must have lived for close to 10,000 years, it might be stronger.

I roughly understood and responded.

“I want to become a dragon. Because I want to explore the laws of the dragon.”

ㅡThe law of the dragon? I don’t know. But be warned. Dragons are the enemies of stars and trees. So I got hurt by the mountain range.

“Okay, this is the last question. Can you tell me where Loa is hiding? I’m trying to hunt Loa. Let me know as much as you can.”

-I understand. I only know old beings, but the Loa of the places I know include great lakes, storms, moonlight, winter, volcanoes, fire mountains, life, and wild life…

I found out the 7 Loa and their location.

I nodded at the satisfactory harvest and the obedient and cool attitude of spring.

Let us save this spring spirit.

-But be careful. Hiding is a virtue for the spirit. The spirit that revealed itself greatly to the world did not last long except in the sky. Once you start hunting, it will be difficult to hide. Countless spirits will be watching you.

“Don’t worry. I can already run away from anyone.”

With those words, the conversation ended, and I approached Anu’s tribesmen.

Even though it is still broad daylight, Anu’s people are not working and are laughing and chatting with each other.

They were not driven by profit, and only worked as much as was necessary for survival.

Yes, as much as faith is necessary, they regard it as a relationship in which their vital energy is exchanged in return.

After gathering faith here for a while, I realized something.

If I want to receive more trust, the priority is to make my presence and name known rather than being complacent.

And hunting powerful spirits will be enough to imprint my presence on this world.

I went to see the priest.

“Ah! Loa, information about the spirit of the abyss and the spirit of earthquake has arrived.”

Abyss and earthquakes?

I received their information and was satisfied.

Roughly speaking, it is about where the spirits of the abyss and the earthquake were seen and fought each other. I thought this could be used to track location.

-This is the information I wanted. I was about to leave to hunt Loa and mighty spirits. Is there anything your village wants from me?

“Ah! You’re already leaving…! Then, without shame, I dare say that at that moment, a pack of wolves crossing the river to target our mountain…”

A priest who expresses his regrets and honestly says what he wants without a single reservation.

-Your request will be granted.

On that day, the wolf spirit and 100 wolf packs led by the spirit were annihilated at once.

For the first time, I saw a spirit beast, and it seemed no different from other wolves, except that it was much larger than the other wolves.

Moreover, it was a weak spirit, barely at the D-level level.

But what’s interesting are the other wolves that belong to him.

Some of the eight wolves are wolves that have absorbed essence.

Surprisingly, half of those wolves are spirit beasts, wolf spirit companions.

He was gathering essence and feeding it to the wolves under his command, forming a small army.

The fear of this spirit beast was that it led its own species and formed a force.

Of course, to me, they were just like neighborhood bastards.

After annihilating the wolves with a few slashes, I set off on my journey.
