Looking from afar, the cooling pool was shrouded in a cold white mist, making it hard to see clearly.
When he reached the edge of the pool, he saw that it was filled with countless unfinished items. Most of them sank to the bottom while bubbling on the surface.
Some of them had already cooled down and floated to the surface, glowing brightly.
Even without touching them, he could tell that the embryos were perfect just by looking at them with his naked eyes.
They were as smooth as jade and did not look like they were put together. All the materials were perfectly combined as one.
As expected of the mirror-wielding banshee.
Naprey pointed at a floating object at the center of the pool. "Elder Kong Ta and the mirror-wielding banshee are in there!"
Angor looked at where Naprey was pointing at.
The object floating in the center of the pool seemed to be made of some kind of crystal shell. It was a white prism.
It looked like it was floating in the air. But upon closer inspection, Angor could see that it was slowly rotating under the influence of the cold air.
"That's the sealed space!" Naprey said, "Let's go."
Naprey was about to fly away when he saw something.
However, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He looked at Angor who was already on the surface of the pool. "I can't fly here … Can you give me a hand?"
Naprey scratched his head and explained to Angor and Laplace, "This is a cooling pool. There are many unfinished items soaking in it. If you disturb the balance here, you might lower their quality … "
Naprey could fly, but he relied on his rune to do so.
The power of his Divine Inscriptions was flames.
Using fire to create wings or summoning a fire spirit to set up a fire lever could break the balance of the pool.
Fire would not only cause the temperature to rise, but also because the properties of the cooling liquid and fire went against each other. Even a cold flame could cause the cooling liquid to ripple.
Naprey could fly, but he did not want to cause any problems for the unfinished items.
Angor was surprised to hear Naprey's explanation. "You don't have any neutral energy?"
"Neutral energy" could be understood as energy without any attribute. Most non-elemental energy could be categorized in this category.
Napoli nodded. "Yes, my rune is fire. There is no elemental energy."
Of course, Napori could also release non-elemental energy through items.
However, Naboli usually did not need to use non-elemental energy, so he did not prepare such an item …
Laplace asked curiously, "Then how do you usually condense?"
Napoli: "I have Cold Flame."
Every craftsman had their own unique cooling method, so not all craftsmen needed to use cooling liquid.
Laplace did not know much about alchemy, so he did not ask further. However, in his heart, it seemed that even though the power of the Divine Inscriptions was very strong, there were still some flaws …
Just as Laplace was thinking about this, Napoli rubbed his chin and murmured in a low voice, "Why don't we try to let the runes create a non-elemental energy method?"
"Don't!" Angor quickly yelled at Naprey.
Napoli looked at Angor with a puzzled expression.
"I mean, if you really want to create something, do it yourself. Don't put all your hopes on runes."
"It's a bit presumptuous, but it's for your own good."
Napoli didn't understand at first, but after two seconds, he seemed to understand. "Do you know something?"
"Mister, are you familiar with my Divine Inscriptions?"
Napoli's throat went dry as he stared at Angor. "Do you know more about them?"
"Or are you saying that you have a deeper understanding of me … of my background?"
Angor did not answer. Everyone suddenly fell into silence.
However, the silence only made Napoli's heart race even faster.
If Angor denied it directly, Napoli would believe him. But Angor's sudden silence meant that Napoli knew something!
But … didn't Angor just say that he never heard of Divine Inscriptions?
About five seconds later, someone finally broke the silence. It was Laplace.
"It's me."
Napoli turned his head sharply to Laplace.
"When you came to the Mirror Banshee's workshop, I asked someone about Divine Inscriptions … and I did get some information."
Napoli's pupils shrank. So Angor's information came from Laplace?!
But who did Laplace get the information from?
Was it someone else? Was it Gleipnir?
"You don't have to worry about where I got the information from. Maybe you'll meet that person one day. But for now, let me keep you guessing."
Laplace paused and continued, "As for the Divine Inscriptions and your background, I did find some clues. However, Gleipnir will tell you about this later. "
After discussing with Laplace, Angor decided to tell Naboli about the Tevaria Realm.
However, they planned to ask Gleipnir to tell him later.
After all, Gleipnir always felt sorry for what he did to Napoli, and telling Napoli about it was a way to return the favor.
Therefore, they did not tell Napoli anything until now.
However, Napoli suddenly mentioned that he wanted the Divine Inscriptions to help him create a "non-elemental" energy method.
It was easy to ask the Divine Inscriptions to create a new method, but it was like draining the goose that laid the golden eggs. Once the Divine Kingdom's Divine Inscriptions was used up, the Divine Inscriptions would reach the end of the path.
Therefore, Divine Inscriptions would not be used to create a new method unless it was absolutely necessary.
He also wouldn't recklessly use up the "Stubbornness" in the divine sigil because of some trivial matters.
For Napoli's sake and to gain Napoli's trust, Angor told him not to use Divine Inscriptions.
"Gleipnir … Grandma Astrologer knows who I am?" Napoli was a little surprised.
Laplace said, "Yes, I told her not long ago. If you're curious, you can ask her later. "
Napoli didn't know what to say.
Napoli remained silent for a moment. "You can tell me too."
Napoli desperately wanted to know where he came from. If possible, he would like to know the answer right now.
"We can tell you. But do you want Gleipnir to feel sorry for you for the rest of his life? If so, I can tell you right now. "
Napoli's eyes widened as he realized something.
It was normal for people to have a beginning without an end. But if possible, who wouldn't want to have a beginning without an end?
Gleipnir decided to tell him in person so that he could put an end to his regrets.
Thinking of this, even though Napoli was eager to know his origin, he suppressed the thoughts of the floating algae and nodded gently. "I understand. I'll look for the Astrologer Granny later."
Laplace nodded in satisfaction.
"I'll ask Gleipnir to tell you more information. But there's something you need to know first. "Laplace looked at Napoli." Remember what Angor told you. "
"I can't use Divine Inscriptions at will?"
Laplace nodded. "Don't think that Divine Inscriptions don't cost you anything. They do cost something. Once it's exhausted, your path as a Transcendent will come to an end. "
Angor is doing this for your own good. "
Napoli didn't know the exact reason, but he trusted Laplace and Angor's judgment.
This was because he himself would occasionally feel that the ability to create divine runes was a little too mystical.
He wasn't an idiot, and he knew that there was no free lunch in this world. Every gift from fate came with a price. He just didn't have the time to pay it back yet.
When that day really came, it would be time for him to cry.
"I see." Napoli paused for a moment. "However, I actually can't control the creation method of the Godly Pattern. Sometimes, I don't even think about using the Godly Pattern, but the Godly Pattern will run by itself, just like the Flame Illumination."
Laplace didn't answer. Instead, he looked at Angor.
Angor nodded. "The Divine Inscriptions work because of your 'stubbornness'."
"Stubbornness?"
Angor nodded. "Stubbornness is your desire. The more you desire it, the more it will repay you. "
Just like before, Napoli wanted to preserve his memories without being affected by the Sea of Empty Mirrors. This desire hidden deep in his heart was captured by the divine runes, and thus, the 'Flame Reflection' was born.
"Of course, the Divine Inscriptions won't repay all your desires.
I don't know how exactly the Divine Inscriptions choose your desires. But if you don't want the Divine Inscriptions to work on their own, try to control yourself. Don't think about creating new spells. "
Napoli understood. The Divine Inscriptions were like a mirror that reflected one's inner thoughts. Whatever one desired, the Divine Inscriptions would create corresponding abilities.
Therefore, he had to control his inner desires and keep his inner thoughts as clear as a mirror so that the Divine Inscriptions wouldn't work on their own.
This was why Angor interrupted his thoughts.
If he kept thinking and longing, the Divine Inscriptions might really reciprocate and create "attribute-less" abilities.
"I understand. I'll try to control my emotions."
As Napoli spoke, he took a deep breath and let the cold air above the cooling pool enter his body.
The cold air instantly extinguished the fire in his heart.
Feeling the chill, Napoli spoke in a low voice, "Now I know why Elder Konta placed the sealed space above the Cooling Pool."
The chilling sensation did help to clear one's mind.
"Back to the topic. If you really want an attribute-less ability, you have to create it yourself. Your people usually create their own abilities. They won't use Divine Inscriptions unless it's something extremely important. "
Napoli nodded. "I'll try to create one myself … Can I know the name of my tribe? That's all I have. "
Angor smiled. "You'll have to wait for Gleipnir to explain it to you. But I can tell you something. The supernaturals in your people are called … Obsessives.
"And you, you are a Lingering Spirit."
"… Obsessives?" Napoli repeated the name in a low voice. He couldn't help but feel excited.
After all, this was the first time he received information about his identity. How could he not be excited?
Fortunately, he was still at the edge of the cooling pool, and the cold air was constantly being breathed into his body. Under the influence of the cold air, he could still remain calm.
Suppressing his inner excitement, Napoli asked, "Shall we go to the sealed space first?"
Of course, Angor could tell that Naprey couldn't wait to finish his work here so he could go to Gleipnir.
Angor nodded to show his understanding.
With a wave of his hand, a large number of illusion nodes gathered together and formed a flight of stairs using Reality Illusion.
The stairs led straight to the sealed space at the center of the Cooling Pool.
Naprey nodded at Angor with a grateful look before he stepped onto the stairs and headed toward the floating rhombohedron.
When they reached the rhombohedron, Napoli took out his familiar dragon scale and touched it.
With a flash of light, the rhombohedron grew bigger and closer until it completely surrounded them.
The white light slowly faded away. Angor opened his eyes and looked around. They had left the cooling pool and arrived at a pure white space.
This space reminded him of the white secret chamber inside Dalmatian's stomach.
It was also a square space filled with endless whiteness.
However, compared to the white secret chamber, this space was covered in a thin layer of mist. The mist carried a chilling aura, which clearly came from the Cooling Pool outside.
The coldness spread everywhere.
A normal person would be frozen solid after staying here for several minutes.
But for Angor and his companions, it wasn't that bad. Moreover, Napoli also condensed a fiery light shield, enveloping all of them. The raging fire not only dispelled the mist but also brought them some warmth.
As the mist dissipated, they saw two people in a corner of the white space.
One of the Crystal Eye Clan members was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed. He was mumbling something under his breath, as if he was chanting a spell.
The other one was floating not far away. She was wearing a long red dress, which made her look like a lady from a palace. She held a prism mirror in front of her chest with both hands.
At first glance, she looked like a noble lady from a palace.
But when you looked up and saw her face, you would see that she wasn't a noble lady at all. Instead, she was a ferocious banshee.
Pitch-black eyes, scarlet lips, and withered hair scattered in all directions.
Blue veins bulged on her face as if she was trying her best to break free from the cage.
Yes, a cage.
She was floating in the air, but she was actually sealed inside a crystal cage.
It looked like a glass coffin floating in the air.
