People can become gods, but they have to start by awakening the power of two sides. But I believe that all the gods conspired to hide this secret and divided the path of immortality into two, known as magic and body arts, and there is no end to these two paths.
Practicing magic can give you the power of the gods, and even give you a glimpse of the possibility of becoming a god, but it is impossible to pass the final test. Practicing body arts can give you the power of the bloodline and become the strongest on the continent. Eventually, you will be almost invincible, but you will not be able to live forever.
Some supreme warriors have undergone the second awakening of power, so they can also practice some magic to assist them in martial arts, which makes them stronger. For many years, I have focused on the stories and legends of these supreme warriors. Exploration is difficult and complicated. It contains not only my teacher's thoughts for a hundred years, but also the blood and tears of countless people in history. I can only say the final conclusion.
It is difficult to awaken the power of the gods, but it is even more difficult to awaken the power of two sides. In fact, those supreme warriors who have successfully undergone the second awakening of power are the first to have this possibility. Such people are very rare, but they are not non-existent. There are definitely many of them in the world, and some of them only became warriors because they were not qualified to learn magic at first.
When the power of two sides is awakened, it also awakens the desire of two sides. Passing this test, one can practice magic and body arts at the same time.
The second test is "Purity of Body", which should be a test of body arts. Passing this test, one can become a second-level warrior, but after that, one needs to continue to practice magic and advance to a second-level mage.
The third test is "Firmness of Faith", which is generally considered a test of magic. Passing this test, one can become a third-level mage, but after that, one needs to continue to practice body arts and advance to a third-level warrior.
The fourth test is "Purity of Blood", which should be a test of body arts. Passing this test, one can become a fourth-level warrior, but after that, one needs to continue to practice magic and advance to an advanced fourth-level mage.
The fifth test is "Devil's Temptation", which is generally considered a test of magic. Passing this test, one can become a fifth-level mage, but after that, one needs to continue to practice body arts and advance to a fifth-level warrior.
The sixth test was "Limit Breakthrough". It should be a test of body arts. If one passed, he would become a sixth-level warrior. After that, he would have to continue practicing magic to become a sixth-level mage.
That's the end of my search. I'm just a ninth-level mage and a sixth-level warrior. That's all I'm sure of.
The next test was just a guess. The next test should be the 'Fusion of Faith' recorded in the ancient books of magic. If he passed, he could become a seventh-level supreme mage. This step was extremely difficult, and most mages in the world were unable to take it. As for how the cultivation of two sides should be carried out, it was still unclear at the moment. Hopefully, someone would continue to explore this path.
I must state that this is much more difficult than just training in body arts and divine arts. The further I go, the more difficult it becomes. There may be mysteries that I do not understand, and there is a possibility that I will not succeed in the end. Even if they tried, there were very few people who could walk this path. Whether they could walk to the end and see the heaven where the gods lived would not only require courage and wisdom, but also the luck of the world.
If the person reading this is my respected teacher, please do not forget the three things I have told you. Those are messages for you. I won't write them here, and I can't explain why for the time being.
The information recorded in the Gods' Tear ended here. When Bair described his conclusions, he added many small annotations next to them. Amon did not dare to be distracted. He was so absorbed in reading that he did not notice that Schrödinger in the distance had closed his eyes and was dozing off. The cat rushed over excitedly, and in the end, saw everything, but seemed very disappointed and even lost.
The golden words that appeared in the void had disappeared, but the Gods' Tear was still shining. It was quiet in the belly of the mountain. If one listened carefully, they could only hear Schrödinger's faint snoring. Amon stood on the high platform in silence for a long time, immersed in a deep state of meditation, recalling what he had just seen and forgetting where he was.
Bair had summarized the detailed steps of practicing the power of two sides. Obviously, he had verified it himself. A ninth-level supreme mage who had achieved the sixth level of body arts was almost unheard of in the continent.
"The awakening of desire", "the firmness of faith", "the temptation of the devil", "the fusion of faith", these were the various tests of practicing magic. The various obstacles that an ordinary person had to overcome to become a supreme mage were all recorded in the ancient books of magic. In Bair's annotations, there was another explanation for 'firmness of faith', which was the 'firmness of faith' that Amon comprehended.
These two men had never met each other, separated by decades, but their understanding was the same. Amon confirmed his own experience of magic practice from Bair's annotations.
But for body arts, awakening of power also awakened another kind of impulsive desire, and then there were tests of 'purity of the body', 'purity of the blood', 'breakthrough of the limit' and so on. These were not clearly recorded in the body arts books. Crazy 'Ole had discovered some rules that people had overlooked and summarized them. Obviously, Bair had gone further than his teacher.
The path in front of Amon was now very clear. First, he had to awaken the power of two sides, and then go through 'Awakening of Desire' (level one), 'Purity of the Body' (level two), 'Firmness of Faith' (level three), 'Purity of the Blood' (level four), 'Temptation of the Devil' (level five), 'Breakthrough of the Limit' (level six).
Bair's verification stopped here. Amon had to explore the rest by himself. As far as he knew, he had never heard of anyone who could become a supreme mage and a supreme warrior at the same time.
Although Bair had left many annotations, some of them were very concise. For example, the beginning of the awakening of the power of two sides was only described in one sentence. Unless it was Crazy 'Ole himself, it would not be easy for others to understand. Now, it was not Crazy 'Ole but Amon who had come, so it was easy for him to understand.
Bair also explained that everyone might focus on different abilities or have different personal preferences. For example, some people were good at fighting with swords, while others liked to wave their staffs. These did not affect the practice of the power of two sides. For example, those who chose to be a warrior only needed to meet the basic requirements of meditation when practicing magic, and did not need to practice all kinds of complicated magic skills. Those who chose to be a mage only needed to practice the power of the blood when practicing body arts, and did not need to learn all kinds of complicated martial arts.
To exert any ability to the fullest, it would take a lifetime of effort. This path itself was so difficult, so it was reasonable to first meet the basic requirements and then focus on other aspects.
After reading Bair's information, Amon still had two questions. The first was the bone, which was said to be the holy relic of the Temple of Isis, the rib of Osiris. His previous guess was right. It was really the bone of a god. At least it confirmed one of Nietzsche's crazy sayings. Eternal gods could also fall, or Osiris was just a demigod.
Amon only knew that Osiris was the father of Horus, the king of the Eygut people believed in. In the Temple of Horus in Duc, there were statues of Isis and Osiris. As for what this rib was, Amon had no idea. Holding it in his hand felt like a dream, but it was very real.
The Detection Eye could not detect this bone, and the Detection Eye could not detect Schrödinger either. Was that cat also a god? This was Amon's second question, but Bair did not mention anything about Schrödinger at all.
Thinking of this, Amon could not help but look back at Schrödinger, only to find that it was lying on the ground and dozing off. It looked so listless and lazy that it did not look like a god at all. Amon also found his idea a little funny.
Perhaps there was a person's soul sealed in the body of Schrodinger the cat. Otherwise, how could it write? And it was in hieroglyphs! But this kind of speculation could not explain how a cat could live for thirty long years and cross the steep gorge and jungle to reach Duc.
If Schrödinger wanted to tell him, it would have done so long ago. Even Crazy 'Ole did not know that this cat could write, so Amon could not force it to do anything. It was this cat that led him here and gave him all the information left by Bair. He should thank it.
The Gods' Tear was still hanging in the air. The most important thing now was to collect this precious parangon. Crazy 'Ole's token could only read the information left in it. If Amon wanted to collect the Gods' Tear, he would have to use the rib of Osiris. Bair had said that the minimum requirement to use it was to be a third-level mage or mage who had practiced advanced spatial magic, and Amon was one of them.
To be on the safe side, Amon did not collect the Gods' Tear first. Instead, he experimented with various things scattered on the ground. A spatial artifact could store a lot of things, as if it could carry another dimension. It was a treasure that many mages dreamed of owning. And Amon already had two in his hands. One was the rib, and the other was the Ventussalam that he could not use yet.
There were all kinds of weapons, armors, staffs, precious ornaments and unused scrolls scattered on the ground. Every one of them was good stuff! Some of the weapons and armors were broken into pieces, but the material was still very precious. Medanzo had carried the Damasc steel embryo thousands of miles to the capital of Bablon. Wouldn't the forged Damasc steel be more valuable?
Amon did not have the habit of wasting things. Even if he did not use it himself, he would give it to others.
