"More than ten? That's far too ridiculous. Just how many Concepts have you prepared? "
"Ha, that's the foundational secret of every Myth-ranked and even SemiGod. Did you really think that I'd tell you … Fine, I admit it. Even I don't know the exact number."
My companion's expression of "I've seen through you" and "keep making up stories" was rather unbearable, so I told him the truth.
"For others, the most important step is to find a Concept that can be converted. However, I've accumulated more than ten Concepts over four lives. What I'm worried about is something else. I don't know how many Concepts are worth converting, nor do I know which Concepts will eventually form a system. Nor do I know what my physical body's limit is. "
Indeed, since there were no precedents to follow, and I had accumulated quite a lot of Concepts, I didn't even know how many Myth-ranked Concepts I would be able to carry, nor did I know my limits.
Since this was a path that had already been explored by others, there would naturally be rules to follow. Based on past experience, every species would have different tendencies and limits.
Going from Myth to SemiGod was just like a freight train crossing the ocean. On the other side of the ocean, everything would be accumulated in the past, but on the other side, the value would increase by a hundredfold.
The physical body's bloodline would be the only ferry. The power of one's bloodline would be equivalent to the material and weight of the ferry. If one transported too little, one would earn less, or even suffer a loss. If one transported too much, the ferry would capsize, and the goods would be lost.
As I previously mentioned, there was no such thing as fairness in this world to begin with. Not only did a species' bloodline determine their starting point, it also secretly determined their ending point. In this ferry game, every species' ferry would be completely different.
Demons used killing and devouring to evolve. Their entire bodies were in an eternal state of evolution. The so-called bottleneck was only because they did not kill enough and did not eat enough. It was meaningless to measure them by the level of mortals.
Dragons and Titans did not even know what it meant to be capsized. Not only did their natural bloodline power give them powerful natural talents, it also allowed them to grow rapidly. There was no limit to their growth. In front of the most ancient dragons, ordinary human SemiGods were nothing more than a joke.
There were different types of Elves, ranging from the Bronze Bloodline of the Wild Elves to the Gold Bloodline of the Gold Elves. However, they were of the same origin, so their racial characteristics were still similar.
Superior Elves would typically choose two or three Concepts, while ordinary elves would choose one or two Concepts. As for how many Concepts the royal Gold Elves would choose … I didn't know, either, as Harloys was no longer a suitable example. However, my guess was that the Gold Elves had their own system just like dragons and demons. Otherwise, they wouldn't be called a Gold Species.
"According to this logic, if Harloys is able to break through the third stage and become a Demigod, she should be much more powerful than an ordinary new Demigod. Sigh, at the end of the day, humans are still the most miserable. They are congenitally deficient and have a short lifespan. "
Human powerful individuals had short lifespans. It would be extremely fortunate for them to be able to reach this level before their lifespans came to an end and find a single "Concept." However, their weak physical bodies meant that they could only choose a single "Concept" to convert to. Those who dared to try multiple Concepts were basically all dead … This was also the reason why human SemiGods were viewed as weak.
Didn't Adam and Marguerite have multiple Concepts? Actually, this was a path that others had taken as well. This involved another important Concept — inheritance!
"When I have a chance to make a wish, I'll choose to make another wish. Since a human physical body is unable to accept multiple Concepts, then I'll use the first Concept to change my physical body's attributes. Perhaps I'll even transform into a non-human body. Won't that allow me to accept other Concepts? I'll even be able to use this to obtain a longer lifespan and progress even further. "
It was impossible to say which insane senior had come up with such a method.
Obviously, this wouldn't be an easy miracle to achieve. Converting to a physical body would require a tremendous price. Failing would mean death. But as long as enough experience was accumulated, a stable path of conversion and strengthening would be discovered.
"Compared to other species, perhaps humans are naturally weak and have short lifespans. Perhaps we're lacking in talent and potential, but we can inherit the experiences of our predecessors. Perhaps our lifespans aren't long enough, but we can record our knowledge and experiences into books and pass them on to our descendants. Perhaps we're limited by our lifespans and talent, so we're unable to reach the peak. However, our species will continue to advance and finally evolve to the peak. "
The path that our predecessors took was an inheritance.
Adam's Phoenix Inheritance, which included the Phoenix Bloodline and Phoenix Heart, was slowly perfected by us as we adventured. Even the materials were painstakingly gathered. Being able to succeed on the first try was largely due to luck.
Since all of the materials required the Phoenix Heart, and this was a powerful inheritance specifically chosen for Adam, his future path would be smooth sailing. In fact, he even had the chance to become the strongest human.
It could be said that Adam Han was the creator of the Phoenix Inheritance.
Marguerite's Undying Inheritance was a byproduct of the Wise Scholars' research on the Philosopher's Stone. It was a well-developed inheritance that could be directly exchanged for in the Mage Country. However, the most important material, the Philosopher's Stone, was something that could only be obtained by herself.
However, the Undying Inheritance wasn't actually a high-level inheritance. It would only have a limited effect on magical power. Although Marguerite's youthful appearance was quite popular among women, it would be a waste to use a once-in-a-lifetime inheritance like this … Actually, Marguerite didn't need an inheritance to increase her power. She believed that she could obtain everything with her own two hands.
The first "Concept" was to choose the core component of the inheritance, which would be used to change the physical body to break through the human body's bottleneck and obtain a new physical body. The second "Concept" was to choose a "weapon" to increase combat strength. This seemed to have become the most standard configuration.
Of course, it would be far too much of a waste to only use this inheritance that he had painstakingly created just once. It seemed far too long and meaningless for his descendants to cultivate from scratch just to obtain a "physical body" and "weapon".
And so, the inheritance also included martial arts techniques, philosophies, magical theories, and so on. In the end, these inheritances naturally became heirlooms that were passed down from father to son, and from son to grandson. These heirlooms created powerful individuals that were similar in appearance. In fact, there were even titles like "Dragon Hunters" that could be passed down from generation to generation. However, their power levels would be on a completely different level.
Of course, it couldn't be denied that this current situation would be quite beneficial in stabilizing the inheritance. Similar bloodlines and natural talents would also increase the success rate of the inheritance by a whole level.
Obtaining an inheritance would be the equivalent of obtaining the complete accumulation and power of a senior who was at least at the peak of Myth rank. Then, learning the senior's martial arts techniques would mean that it would be strange if one still couldn't rapidly grow stronger.
Inheritances seemed quite high-class, but there were quite a few people who came into contact with them at the lower levels. However, coming into contact with an inheritance that was too complete at such a young age would easily limit the inheritor's imagination and potential. But according to what I knew, many countries' royalty and royalty did such things in private.
And, a good inheritance would naturally be a rare treasure that couldn't be bought with money. Previously, I had caused so much trouble in the Underground because it was rumored that the Eternal Night Scepter contained the secret of Emperor Yongye's power. What else could it be other than an inheritance?
And for me, who was a Double Diamond Bloodline Arbiter in this world, my physical body's potential was far from reaching its limit. This was also the foundational reason why I was willing to pay any price to obtain a powerful physical body.
I had already accumulated enough materials, and the foundation was solid. Now, it was almost time for me to create something miraculous.
Perhaps in the future, there would also be an inheritance called the Legend of Roland.
My physical body was already nearly indestructible and had limitless potential. There was no need for me to search for any inheritance. But, what I held in my hands was quite an important inheritance.
Perhaps it could even be called one of the strongest inheritances in the world.
But, this inheritance was both power and responsibility.
I held the silver battle hammer and chanted the words of pure Holy Light. Holy light surrounded the hammer, illuminating the surroundings as if it was daytime and as if it was a bright lamp in the dark.
Ethereal figures appeared all around me, either valiantly fighting against enemies or defending my home. This was the battle hammer's memory, the inheritance of countless Holy Knight.
It was unable to change the limits of an ordinary person's body, but it could give the inheritor a will and spirit that surpassed that of an ordinary person. Not a single one of its previous masters had been cowards!
I had no reason to let this inheritance end in my hands. I was unable to forget the history it represented …
And so, I picked it up.
"… Let's start with this, the [Light of Salvation, Hope Battle Hammer of the Light Envoy]."
