Chapter 843: Chapter 51: Everyone from Parallel Worlds, Lend Me Your Strength! (5600)_2
But now, with the power of the âGuiding Star,â this connection has been strengthened.
Moreover, the choices Ian made during his Dao journey were clearly not based on his current self, but on another origin that developed from a different initial situation long ago.
The Foresight View saw these âfutures,â but essentially, it only saw some parallel worlds that progressed a bit faster.
This is also a form of foreseeing the future.
Ian doesnât know how many parallel worlds there are, but the chances are âinfiniteâ... Among the infinite, there will certainly be a world line almost identical to his current one, and the Foresight View provides âpremonitionsâ for the current Ian by predicting the choices of that Ian.
Even the Ians from other parallel worlds are using the actions of Ian in the current world to offer âpremonitionsâ.
Such chaotically intertwined choices come together to result in the âProphets cannot be directly foretoldâ.
After all, even Ian can only use others as a way to glimpse his own future and receive premonitions.
Perhaps many other Prophets see not the future but more rapidly progressing parallel worlds, just like Ian, but this cannot be confirmed.
Aside from the Skull of Momentary Insignificance, Ian has not seen any other living Prophets, nor does he know their circumstances.
Even now, his speculations are not complete, not necessarily correct... but at least they can explain the abilities brought by his current Heartlight Body âGuiding Starâ.
After activating a warm gemstone of the âGuiding Starâ with Primal Aether, Ian felt a vague resonanceâfollowed by the appearance of a vortex, and the phantom of the Bloodhunter materialized.
He had a brief exchange with an Ian from a âSwarm World Lineâ chosen at random, obtaining information about the Bloodhunter.
It felt just like a lottery; before drawing, one has no idea what the outcome will be or what gains there might be.
However, the provider of the prize is not someone else but oneself.
Oneâs own parallel world self.
"... Movement is rather slow and overall quite fragile, the only advantage being strength, but not even comparable to a First-Level Sublimator with enhanced physical power."
Ian reviewed the Bloodhunter data, contemplating the construction model in his mind, and did not feel it was a particularly powerful creature: "Plainly speaking, itâs just a basic unit of the Swarm, isnât it? Thereâs no subsequent advanced path yet, presumably just developed, and even making Magic Potion has no advantage."
"The value lies in how to create such a war creature, this kind of experimental data is very useful, it can assist me in creating new Bloodline True Forms in the future."
"Also, the complementary âSwarm Spirit Networkâ is extremely useful! Although the Monarch Legacy already has a similar Monarch consciousness, the Swarmâs spirit network is clearly more direct, which can let Adalbert improve and research itâthereâs definitely great utility in Artificial Souls!"
"Moreover, if I could summon some relatively powerful Swarm individuals, maybe they could serve as decoys for my true Heartlight Body... but their forms must be suitable."
The Guiding Starâs Heartlight Body ability is true to its name.
Ian will receive guidance from himself in other world lines, and he also needs to guide the other world linesâ Ians.
Among the stars, each serves as a star to the other.
Gravity and light connect them, traversing space-time.
At this moment, Ian felt the price of extracting knowledge from the Swarm World Line was that he must also give something in exchange.
Not much is needed, but it must be helpful.
Otherwise, the mutual âGuiding Starâ relationship would no longer exist, and the power of the Heartlight Body would be weakened.
In reality, such restrictions arenât necessary.
Because the Ian who awakens this kind of Heartlight Body... how should I put it?
ââHeâs indeed quite suited to play the mentor.
Even his Swarm-transformed self from another world line is the same.
"Ian? What is... this?"
At this moment, sensing that the summoned Bloodhunter showed no desire to attack, Elder Mantle relaxed his defenses.
He attempted to inquire about Ianâs condition: "Is this not your Heartlight Body? Is it some kind of... creation youâve shaped?"
Creation is not a novel concept; the golem created by Chief Zhenzhou using his own Origin Quality and mud and stone is a pure example of an Origin Quality creation.
"Hm? Right. It is a creation."
Regaining his composure, Ian looked at the Bloodhunter, its form gradually fading and about to disappear, and couldnât help but smile: "You know... my Spirit Energy is a kind of observational Spirit Energy. As long as I observe and dissect Magical Beasts in detail, I can extract a part of their power to form a temporary creation."
"However, currently, I cannot shape them into stable creations..."
"I see," Elder Mantle accepted without doubt, similar Heartlight Bodies had also appeared before, and Ian obtaining the power to create things through observational Spirit Energy was a bit odd, but it wasnât particularly significant.
He even comforted Ian: "Donât worry, after all, you havenât truly reached the Third Energy Level, so itâs normal for the creation to be a bit frail."
Of course, Ian wasnât worried.
At this moment, he was thinking about what kind of âguidanceâ he should send to his Swarm-transformed self across from him.
This Swarm was not the first Swarm Ian had glimpsed upon the path of Daoâthe first Swarmâs timeline had already nearly reached its end. The Swarm that responded to Ianâs Heartlight Body this time was likely around the Third Energy Level.
