Chapter 1036 - 1036 124 The World Line of Another Possibility 22

1036: Chapter 124: The World Line of Another Possibility (2/2) 1036: Chapter 124: The World Line of Another Possibility (2/2) “Elan’s spirit energy can observe many moments in a person’s past and write them down through psychography.”

“And my ability, the retrospective vision derived from the Foresight View, depends on whether there are strong emotions concentrated in that place.

It doesn’t always activate reliably…

Elan just happens to complement this aspect.”

Ian pondered in his heart: “If Elan and I observe a person together, I can see their future direction, while Elan can learn about their past information…

This is a flawless cooperation!”

“Brother!”

At this moment, Elan, who was sipping half a bottle of honey water, looked at Ian with anticipation: “Is my spirit energy good!”

Ian looked at the expression in the other’s eyes that seemed to be twinkling like little stars, and couldn’t help but smile and encourage: “Very good!

It’s even directly offensive; in terms of attack power, it’s stronger than my spirit energy!”

This was a sincere statement, but it wasn’t just to appease Elan.

The larger the organization or force, the more they valued Elan’s spirit energy because they would certainly have a lot of critical personnel information.

With their help, Elan could easily obtain information about anyone he wanted to know, then deduce even more information, acting as an almost out-of-nothing intelligence amplifier.

Moreover, since it isn’t prophet spirit energy, Elan can even acquire some information about me, the ‘Prophet’…

After all, the future is uncertain, the past is destined; probing into past events is actually simpler than looking into the future and has fewer constraints.

Apart from prophet spirit energy, this is the most powerful type of intelligence spirit energy.

“Yay!”

Hearing Ian’s evaluation, Elan cheered happily and then somewhat drowsily lay on the table: “Strange…

I’m clearly not tired…

Yet, I still feel a bit sleepy…”

“It’s your first time awakening spiritual power, even if your stamina is sufficient, the mental exhaustion is significant.”

Ian, with concern, picked up Elan and took him back to the room: “When I first awakened spirit energy, I was so exhausted after using it a few times that my stamina was insufficient—but your body is very healthy, and your spirit energy consumption isn’t significant either, so it’s normal to feel sleepy while having plenty of stamina.”

“Get a good rest, I’ll take you to the Viscount for a big feast tonight…

Humph, the Viscount is just lucky, having two spirit energy users like us in his territory, his ratings will surely be excellent.”

“This time, he definitely has to invest heavily to nurture you!”

Ian murmured to himself while Elan was already somewhat sleepy—by the time the young lad covered his little brother with a quilt, the small boy had fallen asleep.

This kind of intelligence-based spirit energy is a great drain on the psyche.

Ian himself has the advantage of two lives’ worth of soul experience, plus he is naturally a mentally resilient person, so the toll is not as severe.

One must know that typically a person can predict and observe one to two times a day at most; a genuine prophet’s foresight frequency might even be counted in tendays and months.

There’s no way they could experiment with foreseeing the future like Ian.

“Have a good sleep.”

Straightening the corner of the small quilt underground, Ian sat in the living room, pondering the Foreseeing Bifoliate before him: “I don’t even know how it tastes—I initially thought the Foreseeing Bifoliate was some kind of peculiar spirit plant and wondered whether to process it as a Magic Potion or perhaps slip it in a sandwich as leafy greens…

Now it’s simple; I’ll treat it like peppermint candy.”

Thinking so, Ian popped the remaining leaf of the Foreseeing Bifoliate into his mouth.

It wasn’t a peppermint candy flavor…

How to describe it?

It tasted a bit like watermelon frost lozenges with a touch of licorice.

Refreshing with a hint of bitterness, it was invigorating and bracing, making one feel mentally reinvigorated.

Then, there was the slow surge of spirit substance flowing towards his soul!

The Forest Ocean Spirit nurtures the Foreseeing Bifoliate, which is essentially its Heart Light Body essence.

Even a Third Energy Level expert can use it to enhance their Heart Light Body, and heal various soul-related injuries, while the abundant life essence it contains can consolidate the physical body of a Sublimator, providing stability and preventing aberrations.

Ian already possesses the Heart Light Body, the Guiding Star is the power of the Third Energy Level.

Unlike Elan, who would accumulate a massive amount of origin quality in the soul, Ian would directly enhance himself.

Furthermore, with the enhancement of the Meditation Technique, Ian’s Soul Structure is very solid, allowing him to quickly utilize this external origin quality to mold whatever form it requires.

Thus, in that instant, Ian felt his soul and Heart Light Body being rapidly strengthened, as if water was being poured over an ice sculpture in minus fifty-degree weather, and the essence of spirit material from the Foreseeing Bifoliate was showered onto his soul, instantly transformed into his power.

In Ian’s mind, a structure that could connect to the Forest Ocean Spirit’s data library was forming.

This was also its most crucial authority, a privilege allowing the sharing of authority with the Forest Ocean Spirit.

Yet, there was more.

Originally, Ian thought the impact of the Foreseeing Bifoliate on him was about this—surely it couldn’t actually enhance his prophet psychic ability, right?

Once aware that the essence of Foreseeing Bifoliate was ‘deduction,’ his expectations vanished.

However, the ‘Clairvoyant Vision’ was not enhanced, but the ‘Retrospective World’ wasn’t a prophet psychic ability.

Just as Elan’s psychography ability initially had many restrictions, yet under the empowerment of the Forest Ocean Spirit’s database, the two combined, achieving the theoretical effect of ‘omniscience of all past within South Ridge,’ Ian’s retrospective vision, under the enhancement of Foreseeing Bifoliate and the deduction force of the Forest Ocean Spirit, also began to operate.

In that instant, Ian

An array of…

potential branches from the past began to rapidly unfold under the influence of the deduction force!

“This is…”

Ian closed his eyes, instinctively trying to suppress the burgeoning spirit light within, but despite that, deep blue rays of light projected outward from his eyes, resembling a pair of azure suns.

—This is not prophecy.

In that instant, Ian realized the essence of the ‘scene’ he was about to witness

——This is…

another possible parallel space-time!

——A deduction targeting the ‘past’!

And this possibility stems from…

the biggest change in his life!

…

In the Year 766 of Tyra, at South Ridge Harrison Port, a White Folks boy awakened to memories of his past life and realized the dire situation he was in.

He immediately utilized his spirit energy, located the key to breaking the situation, and killed his uncle who intended to sell him and his brother to the Natives.

Then he evaded all gatherings and guards, taking the corpse to the lake forest to dispose of it.

Due to time constraints, fear of scent spreading, and the need for a complete body to dissect and determine the human body’s structure in this world, the boy exerted great effort to dispose of the corpse rather than dismembering it.

During this effort, he encountered beasts and Natives, falling into a crisis.

When he was about to pay a price to kill the Native Hunter, a benefactor who would change his entire future appeared.

An old knight possessing many secrets, who began observing since the boy prepared to deal with his uncle, witnessed the boy’s decisive and peculiar actions, took a keen interest, admired the boy, and couldn’t bear to see such a genius buried, decided to help him resolve some troubles.

Then, he witnessed the boy calmly dissecting the corpse for the sake of knowledge.

To gain more knowledge, the boy decided to apprentice under the old knight.

And the knight, gazing into those familiar yet unfamiliar eyes, agreed as if by a divine muse.

——From there, everything was the same.

In Ian’s mind, scenes from the past flowed by, a result of the retrospective vision?

Or some restoration of past memories?

He wasn’t sure, but Ian sensed the deduction ability of the Forest Ocean Spirit was at work.

The deduction force was clearly tracing back a different development from a crucial past point in Ian’s life as its origin!

And this different development…

intermingled a potential parallel space-time possibility brought by Ian’s ‘Guiding Star’!

“Such a composite of multiple psychic abilities has this effect?”

Scenes of his past with Teacher Hiliard flashed before Ian, nostalgic yet puzzling: “But so far, except for minor details, such as the order of knowledge the teacher taught me being different, there hasn’t been a significant change, and this order isn’t contradictory; it’s reasonable.”

“What exactly is the difference in this deducted possibility and parallel world?”

Ian pondered this, then he saw the bifurcation point of two different possibilities.

At the end of Terra Year 767, to celebrate Elan learning one hundred words, Hiliard took Ian and Elan for a picnic on a small hill north of the city.

The initial atmosphere was lively and joyful until the night fell, and they watched the ever-thinning stars in the firmament, gazing in some silence and regret as the moon set and the sun rose.

And in the dawn of that very day, Hiliard, who woke Ian, unusually said many things.

He told Ian about the Magic Potion and Ritual following The Unyielding Fortress and shared much other higher inheritance magic potion and ritual knowledge, even producing a small notebook from his chest that he had started writing at some unknown point, which contained knowledge he wanted to slowly teach Ian in the future.

“Teacher?”

In this possibility, the boy asked somewhat bewildered, if not nervously, “What’s this about?”

“Yes.”

And the old man was silent for a moment, then somewhat reluctantly reached out to touch the boy’s hair, softly chuckling: “You’re a smart child, Ian.

You’ve already guessed.”

Closing his eyes, in this possibility, the old man sighed: “I thought I could hold on for another year or two, but unexpectedly, after finding a successor, my injuries have worsened, and I’ll face the final outbreak early next year.”

“I am going to die, Ian.

Take good care of yourself afterward, and take good care of Elan.”
