Chapter 388: Chapter 317 Speculation on the Source of Mutant Ability_1
“`
[Spirit Charm Human Face Flower Seed: A seed of the Spirit Charm Human Face Flower that can be planted within a living body, surviving on the consumption of its own flesh and blood or negative energy such as from the Nether, darkness, and blood. This extraordinary plant seed possesses innate talents and will grow in tandem with the host’s increasing strength.]
[Once it grows to maturity, it can spontaneously generate another extraordinary plant seed, that of the Spirit Enchanting Dragon Vine. Both are companion plants that can grow together.]
[Note: This prop is unique; only the first fallen Spirit Charm Human Face Flower may coalesce its seed from life energy.]
Reading the description of the seed, Zheng Cheng’s mouth twitched subconsciously.
What the hell is this thing?
Planted inside a living body?
Surviving on the consumption of its own flesh and blood or negative energy such as from the Nether, darkness, and blood?
And it can even produce Spirit Enchanting Dragon Vine?
What kind of extraordinary creature is this, exactly?
Especially since it needs to be planted inside a human body.
This…
Thinking of the sprawling Spirit Enchanting Dragon Vine and the huge human faces composed of numerous flowers, Zheng Cheng felt some displeasure.
“I wonder if this thing can be dissected?”
Zheng Cheng shook his head and suddenly looked down at his companion.
“Jerry, what about planting this thing in your body?”
“Ao~”
Jerry let out a strange cry, shaking his massive head vehemently.
“Master~ My senses tell me that this seed contains very powerful life energy, but it seems like that energy is twisted.”
Little Qing, sitting on Zheng Cheng’s shoulder, swung her petite legs as she spoke, “It’s chilling to the bone, yet filled with intense resentment and hatred.”
“Resentment, hatred?”
Zheng Cheng quickly thought of something, “The people of the Charm Clan…”
Pocketing the seed, Zheng Cheng shifted his gaze to the second prop.
A black cover for a booklet, barely over a dozen pages.
[Phantom Soul Book: A special mission prop, which, when delivered to the remnants of the Charm Clan, can yield a certain reward. It is also a proof of certain missions and some achievements.]
?
Zheng Cheng attempted to open the first page and discovered the thin booklet could indeed be opened!
The pages were very thin, like the wings of cicadas.
Around the wholly transparent body, like pages made from crystal, mists gathered like clouds.
At that moment, over a dozen strange characters tumbled from the midst of the clouds, aligning in a row to form a sentence.
“What is this… How do you read it?”
Zheng Cheng’s face showed how baffled he was; although he had studied Elf Language, Dragon Language, and Beastman Language at school, he had never learned the language of the Charm Clan!
Damn it.
Who would have thought that, after finally getting his hands on a seemingly important prop, he wouldn’t be able to read it!
As if sensing Zheng Cheng’s thoughts, the mists on the page suddenly dispersed, and the dozen or so characters slowly vanished.
What’s happening?
Just then, the page flickered with light once more.
A faint glow suddenly surged into his mind.
At the same time, a voice that seemed like a woman’s soft sigh emerged within his mind.
“We of the Charm Clan are born from the desires within living hearts. When living beings perish, the Charm Clan does not!”
“Is this… the last words of a Charm Clan’s lingering spirit?”
Zheng Cheng had a realization and opened the second page of the book.
Another faint light appeared and rushed into his mind.
A series of scenes unfolded within his mind.
In the void, numerous Phantoms roamed for countless years.
Eventually, under the influence of an unknown external force, these Phantoms finally condensed into human shapes.
They came into being from the desires within living hearts, varied in appearance, but all had the innate ability to bewitch hearts and shapes.
“`
They formed tribes in the void, developed language, and procreated until they eventually coalesced into a unified race and nation.
The pages continued to turn, and the history belonging to the Charm Clan appeared in Zheng Cheng’s mind.
War accompanied the life of the Charm Clan.
They were born from the desires of living beings’ hearts, and compared to other races, their desires were much stronger.
Lust, hunger, the thirst for power, all were countless times stronger than those of other races.
They waged wars within and without.
Invading other races, slaughtering at will, enslaving them, they rose to power in an extremely short period of time, like a meteor streaking across the night sky.
Even some of the strongest among their race, in order to satisfy their own desires, began to partition the world of the Charm Clan itself.
Land, rivers, oceans, stars—all were Divinities of the Charm Clan born amid the primeval.
Even the Heavenly Dao that existed in the obscurity!
They wanted to divide the Heavenly Dao, to enslave the Heavenly Dao of their own world!
One of them declared himself the Spirit Charm Emperor!
His goal was to control the Spirit Charm Heavenly Dao and self-proclaim as a deity!
In the end…
Their actions provoked not just the Heavenly Dao of their own world but also the real alien races.
Among the All Heavens and Thousands of Tribes, seven major races in the top hundred and two in the top ten joined forces to invade the Spirit Charm Star.
The Heavenly Dao of the Spirit Charm Star abandoned the very race it had nurtured.
The Charm Clan was ultimately annihilated by foreign races.
Even then…
Upon death, the souls of the Charm Clan persisted, supported by their desires, and transformed into even more bizarre and charming Spirits!
But even so, they could not prevent the catastrophe of their race’s demise.
In the final moments, the Spirit Charm Emperor sealed his divine body, locked the world, and fell from grace.
Zheng Cheng’s spirit suddenly awakened at this moment.
The Phantom Soul Book in his hands also became calm.
And his eyes held a strange look.
“Heavenly Dao… what is it?”
According to the education he received after crossing over, the reason they were able to awaken professions and gain strength was the existence of the Heavenly Dao!
Alien invasion, world fusion—different Heavenly Daos granted different gifts to their own worlds.
And for Humans, Professionists were the gifts granted by the Blue Star’s Heavenly Dao.
Awaken a profession, slay demon creatures, absorb Soul Power to grow stronger.
Other worlds, worlds of alien races, also had their corresponding Heavenly Daos.
Yet the Heavenly Dao of the Charm Clan abandoned them because of their actions.
Ultimately, they met with a fate where both body and soul were annihilated.
“If Professionists are gifts from the Heavenly Dao, what about me?”
“I’m a transmigrator… Technically not a person from Blue Star, yet I still acquired a profession?”
Zheng Cheng was full of doubts, “But there’s something strange about my profession, how come all the normal skills in my hands are Mutant Abilities…”
“Will of the World, the gifts of the Heavenly Dao, could it be that my Mutant Abilities are the result of the mutual gifts between Blue Star and Earth…”
“Boom!”
Just then, a thunderous roar came from afar.
A ten-meter tall Ice Giant, completely entangled in black Vines, was seen.
The Spirit Charm Fire blazed fervently, even entering the Ice Giant’s body, burning his entire body pitch black.
The Spirit Charm Fire was transforming the icy energy inside the Ice Giant, converting him into a Spirit Charm Giant.
“Ao~!”
At that moment, the gigantic Spirit Charm Giant roared towards the heavens as flames burst forth from its body.
The Spirit Enchanting Dragon Vine that was originally wrapped around it immediately dispersed and retracted into the ground, and the Spirit Charm Giant slowly turned and headed towards Yao Zhixue and the others.
With an open mouth, a skyful of Spirit Charm Fire fell from the heavens!
Boom!
