Chapter 64: Light Caller’s Staff
Baiyu pondered for a while.
Forging represents creation, destruction, transformation, anger.
This does not align with his Extraordinary Sequence.
After a brief consideration, he imdiately gave up this affinity.
The remaining options.
Are Light and Awakening.
Light represents hope, brightness, rationality.
The power of Awakening involves rationality, order, wisdom.
These two affinities.
Are highly compatible with a Prayer Technique apprentice in this sequence.
Baiyu hesitated indecisively.
However, after a mont of hesitation, he finally chose "Light."
Extraordinary World.
Maintaining rationality is of utmost importance.
As long as one doesn’t go crazy, there are infinite possibilities.
This is what the saying refers to, as long as you are alive, there will be output, only living people can land the final blow.
If a person dies.
Then there is nothing left.
As this thought appeared in Baiyu’s mind, the scholar’s space suddenly had an anomaly.
At the very center of the space.
A golden-yellow, fla-like light rose up.
Connecting to the top of the space.
Like a column of light connecting heaven and earth.
Then.
A glowing object wrapped in golden-yellow rose from the center of the light column.
The entire space was dyed golden yellow.
This scene.
Was extrely shocking.
However, Baiyu felt sothing was amiss, the last ti there was such an anomaly in the scholar’s space was when he faced Nightmare Difficulty.
The last ti.
He was almost deford.
To be safe, Baiyu planned to exit the scholar’s space imdiately, but as he had this thought, it was already too late.
As the light enveloped him.
Baiyu felt an explosion of information flood into his mind.
But those pieces of information were fragnted, dazed and blurred, rather consuming his Spiritual Power completely.
Next.
The glowing sphere in the center of the light column voraciously absorbed his Spirituality.
Spirituality.
This is the foundation of every Extraordinary.
Martial Artists use Blood Qi to perform Spirit Techniques, while the Extraordinary use Spirituality to unleash Extraordinary Abilities.
When a Martial Artist’s Blood Qi is exhausted, their body becos weak.
When an Extraordinary’s Spirituality is exhausted, they feel extrely fatigued, even more uncomfortable than the exhaustion of Blood Qi.
More severe cases.
Could cause irreversible damage.
Facing the frenzy of absorption from the glowing sphere, Baiyu found himself unable to break free, hardly able to control any movent.
His Spirituality, like a breached tide, kept surging out.
Flowing like a flood release, extrely terrifying.
In a few seconds, Baiyu couldn’t hold up anymore, his head started to feel like splitting.
In his heart, he felt a bit uncomfortable.
This was a careless mistake, didn’t dodge, now it’s too late to escape.
Baiyu gritted his teeth to endure.
Nightmare Difficulty would never be that simple, now he understood there was a huge trap within.
And this, was just the first step.
Not knowing how many pitfalls remain in the steps ahead.
"Get through this first."
Baiyu cast aside his distracting thoughts.
As ti passed, the suction from the light column grew stronger. Baiyu, already sucked dry, felt waves of chaos and tearing in his head.
Even his consciousness began to blur.
Damn!
Recently everything had been smooth, virtually no disturbances, he relaxed his vigilance.
This thing.
It sucks the life out of you.
This was Baiyu’s last thought before losing consciousness.
...
Uncertain how long had passed, Baiyu’s consciousness awakened, his head felt like splitting with pain.
He moved his limbs, struggling to get up from the ground.
Within the scholar’s space.
The central light column had vanished.
Yet the originally flat center of the scholar’s space revealed a protruding, scepter-like golden-yellow long rod.
Baiyu cautiously approached.
There was no issue.
His hand entirely upon the scepter, it didn’t cause any anomalies.
Truly a scepter.
Engraved with intricate vermillion patterns, extending to the upper part of the scepter.
Its base was embedded in the scholar’s space ground.
At the top, was sothing akin to a lantern, replacing the usual location of a gem.
A typical scepter.
Has a gemstone adorned at the top to appear opulent and elegant.
However, Baiyu’s scepter had a large bulb at the top, he poured Spirituality into it, only causing it to glow briefly.
Otherwise.
Unremarkable.
Baiyu clutched the scepter’s handle with both hands, with a click, he pulled it out from the ground, idly examining it carefully.
And then...
Upon repeated analysis, while continuously infusing Spirituality into it, finally the scepter showed a reaction.
Besides glowing, it also returned a burst of information to Baiyu.
Hungry!
Yes, precisely "Hungry."
Which was exactly the aning the scepter conveyed to Baiyu.
It seed to feed on Spirituality.
Baiyu’s Spirituality had been depleted just now.
Having painstakingly restored so, yet in his recent attempt with the scepter, it had been used up again.
Baiyu pondered how to handle this scepter, when suddenly it began glowing again.
This ti the light wasn’t aid at Baiyu.
But targeted the recessed storage units along the walls of the scholar’s space.
Where many of Baiyu’s belongings were stored.
For example, chanical Flying Sword, Soaring Eagle Gloves.
These weapons no longer matching Baiyu’s combat power had been gathering dust here.
Unexpectedly.
The scepter absorbed them all, and under the golden glow, these items visibly lted, vanished, turning into its nourishnt.
Such a gluttonous feast, Baiyu was utterly amazed.
Afterwards.
Looking at the walls of the scholar’s space now empty, he felt waves of regret.
Although these things were useless.
They were still his possessions, besides what if soday they could be useful?
However, despite this, the scepter seed still unsatisfied.
The scholar’s space contained nothing else for it to consu.
The weapons and equipnt Baiyu had previously won as prizes, etc.
Whether junk or top-tier, had been swallowed all clean.
The only remaining.
Was Moon Blade and the Forbidden Divine Weapon Wooden Box.
Other items, as long as they existed within the scholar’s space, had t a cruel fate.
"You like to eat, right? Then eat to your fill."
With sunk cost so high, at this point, Baiyu simply went all in.
Moon Blade he naturally couldn’t let the scepter devour.
It was handed to him by Shi Yixian, said to represent the weapon of Black Moon Sect, couldn’t be used recklessly.
Therefore.
Baiyu’s gaze naturally fell upon the box containing the Forbidden Divine Soldier.
He gritted his teeth, opened the box.
The forbidden divine soldier fragnt, bright crimson, was taken out.
The mont the scepter and forbidden divine soldier fragnt touched, a confrontation ensued between the two.
This was the first ti Baiyu had seen.
Sothing able to resist the devouring force of this thing.
Blood-red light continuously erged from the forbidden divine soldier fragnt, blocking the golden radiance emitted by the scepter.
Of course.
It only lasted a few seconds, before being overshadowed by the scepter’s light.
Then the entire forbidden divine soldier fragnt was engulfed in golden light.
After a long while.
The golden light finally dissipated.
This ti, the scepter seed finally sated, however the forbidden divine soldier fragnt had now lost a significant part.
Baiyu grasped the scepter.
A surge of joyful and satisfied emotion-infused information passed into his mind.
