Lilith's expression became more serious for some reason, and she said seriously:
"That glass apple... do you still have it?"
"Of course! How could I throw away something so important!"
Bernice nodded heavily immediately. Without Lilith's request, she immediately reached into her bosom and fumbled around for a while, and took out a small object with exquisite shape, bright luster, and crystal clearness from the inner pocket of her coat:
"Look, this is it! It's very powerful, even the 'Saints' are afraid of it!"
Lilith looked serious as she carefully took the delicate and beautiful little thing and examined it carefully in her palm.
At the same time, she also activated her own inspiration at the level of blood stasis to scan and analyze it in detail.
Like a statue, this woman, who looked to be in her thirties, remained motionless in this position for a long time, and the serious and solemn atmosphere almost overflowed from her.
Bernice also sensed the seriousness of her mother's attitude, so she stopped talking and stared at Lilith with bated breath, waiting for her result.
A few minutes later, Lilith suddenly put down her hand, frowned, and said in a deep voice:
"The spiritual fluctuations emitted by this thing... do not belong to the 'Earth'..."
“Is that so?”
Bernice was slightly startled when she heard the answer, but she didn't show any surprise.
"You... continue."
Lilith returned the glass apple to her daughter, then changed the subject, her tone returning to calm and gentle.
"Uh, okay..."
But Bernice also noticed the change in her mother's attitude.
In the following narrative, she deliberately eliminated some overly subjective and emotional experiences and feelings, trying to describe the parts that were certain and detailed enough.
Therefore, the atmosphere of this communication...changed from the boundless, unrestrained, purposeless conversation between mother and daughter to a statement that revealed a serious atmosphere and required careful consideration of every word.
Lilith also did not correct her daughter's narrative.
Ten minutes later, Bernice told the other party everything about how she freed Lilith from the "Original Moon Corona". This mother, whose beauty had not diminished at all due to the passage of time...
The expression on his face has become extremely solemn.
Chapter 334: Fairy Tale Realm
"Xiao Ni, are you sure... that she used some method to instantly deprive that late-stage germinal vampire named Drey of all his spiritual power?"
She lowered her head and remained silent for a long time as if she was thinking. She asked this with a hoarse voice.
"Ah."
Perhaps influenced by her mother's attitude, Bernice's demeanor became more solemn, no longer smiling easily:
"I don't know how she did it, but I can be sure that she did cause this result... Because I felt that the spiritual fluctuations in Dray suddenly became inert, just like ordinary people."
"There is only one power that can do this... in my opinion."
Lilith said in a low voice:
"The grace of the great 'Ancient Moon'."
"what?!"
Bernice's eyes suddenly widened, with an expression of disbelief:
"How is this possible?! Isn't she a mage from the 'Earth' realm? And, and she is human! At least she is definitely not a vampire... The power of the 'Ancient Moon' belongs only to vampires!"
"I find it hard to believe, but this is the only conclusion I can come up with."
Lilith leaned back against the wall of the carriage, her slender white neck raised, her eyes staring at the ceiling without focus, her voice erratic:
"Besides, Xiaoni... didn't you notice that she has already shown many things before, proving that she is definitely not an 'Earth' smelter."
"W-where?"
Bernice lowered her head and thought hard for a while, but she couldn't figure it out.
"Look, hasn't she demonstrated abilities that don't belong to the 'Earth' spell many times?"
Lilith's expression changed slightly, and she explained very patiently:
"For example, the glass apple, or the unknown ability similar to teleportation?"
"Indeed." Bernice nodded, but still a little confused. "What does this mean?"
In her opinion, Yao Lingwu is a legendary powerhouse of the fourth realm, and is a top powerhouse at the same level as the blood clan leader His Majesty the Blood Lord, the "Blood Grand Duke" His Royal Highness Louis, and other blood clan elders.
Even if she specializes in a certain field, isn't it normal for a being of this level to have abilities in other fields?
"No, that's not the case."
Lilith seemed to see through her thoughts and said in a teaching tone:
"For humans... and the vast majority of intelligent creatures - including the vampires - once they reach the third realm, they must choose a specific field as their lifelong path of study.
"For example, I, like you, also knew some 'Earth' spells in my early years. But after I was promoted to 'Out of Yu', I gave up practicing in this area and focused on carving the 'Moon' realm and the divine power of the 'Ancient Moon'.
"This is not only a consideration of limited energy, but also because... the advancement of the realm and level of a transcendent is essentially to further refine and temper one's own spirituality.
“Once you enter the third realm, it means that your spirituality will begin to merge with your physical body. This requires that your spirituality is pure enough and cannot contain too many impurities. Otherwise, the situation will become too complicated, and the probability of losing control will greatly increase.
"This is even more true for the fourth realms, such as the 'Light Smelter' and the 'Saint', where the soul and body are completely integrated. For the legendary strongmen, apart from the spells in their own field, they must not use other powers. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"So, she is..."
Such knowledge was far beyond Bernice's expectations.
According to her mother, if Yao Lingwu is really a smelter, then no matter what field of magic she is, there will be inexplicable contradictions.
"The spiritual item made by 105 can make the Saint on the verge of losing control, which means that she is definitely a strong person who has at least reached the fourth realm..."
Lilith held her chin with one hand and supported her elbow with the other hand, posing as if she was thinking, and muttered:
"But, she is able to exert power from different fields, even including the power of divine grace that belongs exclusively to the vampires. This shows that she is definitely not a regular legendary strongman, such as a 'lightsmith' or a 'saint'..."
Having said this, she suddenly paused.
The scarlet eyes shrank slightly.
"What, what's wrong?"
Bernice saw her mother's reaction and realized something:
"Mother... do you have an answer?"
She had a feeling that her mother was not clueless about the current confusing situation.
"I can't say I have an answer, but this situation... reminds me of a rumor... No, it's not even a rumor, it's just a groundless rumor at best."
Lilith put down her hand, turned to look at her daughter, and smiled with a self-deprecating smile:
“That is a fairy tale of a supernatural world. It is said that there is a realm where one can break free from the shackles of a single spiritual field and learn and simulate supernatural powers in different fields and aspects without suffering a backlash from losing control.
“But this is just a fairy tale. It lacks even a theoretical basis. There is also no sufficient and accurate evidence in history to show that there have ever been people at this level.
"The name of that realm is..."
Under Bernice's doubtful and expectant gaze, she pronounced a word word by word:
"——'Underworld' warrior."
……
…………
……
“——Snap!”
A vertical crack appeared in the space without any warning.
“Click, click…”
Accompanied by a sharp and teeth-grinding sound of breaking, the crack continued to expand to both sides under the influence of an invisible force.
Eventually, a hole was formed that was large enough for one person to pass through.
Through this gap that appeared out of nowhere in the space, one can see chaos, confusion, blasphemy, indescribable colors, as well as strange, deformed, and terrifying outlines.
"brush--"
In such an indescribable chaos and disorder, a figure suddenly emerged from it.
"Ta-ta!"
The short sound of a hard object falling to the ground.
Dark blue hair that reaches the thighs, a handsome face with a bit of heroism, and neat and sassy long-sleeved clothes...
The leader of the Sunset Harbor Super Management Bureau's Execution Team, the younger sister of Mrs. Gary Renee, and a top-notch righteous mage who is nominally good at "fire" and "giant" domain spells.
Nancy!
"That strange guy's ability is really useful... Although it is a 'simulation', its range and stability are not as good as the original, but it is still quite convenient to use it to travel..."
Wearing hard-soled high-top leather boots, this young woman who had met Qi Ji for a few days, crossed her arms over her chest and walked towards the distance step by step:
"One six six... Is he the demigod who gave Daisy divine power and hid behind the 'Bona Ascension Incident'? Ms. Cecima, are you sure he is in this city? He is really brave..."
She whispered in a very soft voice, with no one else around her, as if she was talking to herself.
The crack behind him that led to the secret realm of nothingness was like a healing wound, closing and fading little by little, and finally disappearing, isolating the secrets and chaos lurking inside from the real world.
"We can only walk the rest of the way. If we use the 'secret walk' technique, we will definitely be discovered by the demigods stationed in the city..."
In front of her, on the distant horizon, the magnificent, majestic and majestic Twilight City was like a long mountain range, its outline shining in the morning light.
Chapter 335 The event begins
"call……"
Watching Bernice's figure bathed in the morning light as the carriage moved farther and smaller, eventually sinking into the horizon and out of sight, Qi Ji put down his gently waving hand and sighed lightly:
"This matter has come to an end for the time being."
She stood there in a daze for a long time, until the angle of the sun gradually rose and the temperature of the sunlight also climbed up little by little, then she turned around and walked towards the Twilight City area not far away.
Her steps were slow and leisurely, and with her hands behind her back, at first glance she looked like an old man strolling in the river at the entrance of a community in our motherland.
"But for them, the story is far from over."
Taking leisurely steps, the beautiful girl slightly raised her head, staring unfocused at the slightly cloudy and gray sky above the Twilight City area, and whispered softly:
"Although there is no evidence, I always have a hunch... maybe we can meet again soon... Hmm?"
Suddenly, her steps paused for a moment, and her eyes, which had been staring at the sky with a dazed look, regained their spirit at this moment, as if she had noticed something that aroused her interest:
"...Nancy? What is she doing here? And there are traces of that secret saint... No, there is only her... one and a half... I see..."
In just a few seconds, she muttered a few incomprehensible words, and her eyes, along with the meaningless mumbling... became much brighter.
It seemed like I understood something in this very short period of time.
"Tsk, now things are getting lively... If this continues, by 'that time', the situation will surely be quite exciting... I can't wait any longer, hehe..."
With the corners of her mouth slightly raised, she chuckled a few times, and then a bright star sand suddenly emerged around her, forming a whirlwind that completely enveloped her body, and then dissipated without any warning.
Along with her cloaked figure...it disappeared without a trace.
Upper Town, Imperial University.
The long-planned "academic competition" finally officially began after a somewhat lengthy and boring opening ceremony.
The moment the last school leader on the rostrum finished his speech, the thousands of students below the stage suddenly became active as if some invisible pressure had been lifted off their shoulders.
Under the control of personal qualities and teachers, basic order was barely maintained, and people gradually left the gathering place and spread to various locations on the campus.
"...Great! I can finally leave school freely. This is great!..."
"Three whole days... I had to sleep until the afternoon every day!"
"Look at what you have accomplished! I want to go to the North Square to watch the fight. I wonder who will win this time."
"Vulgar, I want to go to the overhead floor to watch the real professional theoretical test. This kind of competition is worth referring to. I heard that Master Kabra is also present..."
