“Huff, huff…”
Su Lu rubbed his temples, looking at the almost depleted data of inspiration, he couldn’t help but feel extremely exhausted.
Despite this, his face was filled with joy, “Indeed…l have seen information related to the Spirit World again!”
Necromancer Professionals are pioneers in exploring the Spirit World, how could their tradition possibly bypass the Spirit World?
Su Lu did not want to take office as a [Necromancer], his main reason for reading the “Nameless Necromancer Book” was for the experience and information about the Spirit World.
After a slight recovery, he immediately recalled the information he had obtained before:
“Crossed the Sea of the Mind, representing the breakthrough of the second layer of the Spirit World, the scope of the Mental Realm? Have I reached the third layer of the Spirit World?”
“The distortion of rules, all the absurdities… Could this represent the rules of the real world starting to go out of control?”
Su Lu was well aware that the higher the level of the Spirit World, the harder it is to understand.
“It seems like, upon reaching the third layer, the rules of the real world start to gradually lose their effect… That’s a world… hard to imagine… hard to describe… but surely a dangerous world!”
“However, the final reading, has let me know that the professional rank after the third level [Evil Spirit] is the fourth level [Sinister Spirit]! A spiritual body with unfathomable abilities!”
“And… this is the minimum material required for making a Cursed Spirit!”
A Cursed Spirit is a special type of spiritual body, cursed by the demon or high-level Demon Professionals, and spreading terror among the living.
It’s more like a ritual, bringing them benefits, or just for the pleasure.
Su Lu already knew that in order to be cursed and become a Cursed Spirit, the threshold for this is a fourth level [Sinister Spirit].
“Of course… in actuality, it doesn’t mean much because if a ‘demon’ has taken a liking to a certain spiritual body, even if it is the lowest-level resentful spirit, it will experience a leap in growth as long as it doesn’t die at the time of contact, becoming fourth level is pretty simple…”
Su Lu closed his eyes.
When he opened them again, he suddenly found something wrong.
Everything in his field of vision seemed to have changed in appearance, as if he had come to a world filled with funhouse mirrors.
Various furniture like tables and chairs were distorted, presenting a comical arc.
“What’s going on…?”
Without thinking, he sealed the “Nameless Necromancer Book” with the backlash of a dagger.
However, the situation didn’t improve at all.
In Su Lu’s eyes, the colors of the world became more vivid, as if he was in a comedy play and at the same time, as if he had entered into an abstract oil painting.
His ‘rationality’ seemed to gradually lose control over his body, like being drunk, his soul wanted to actively leap out and embrace the clouds and sun in the sky.
“Is this… the Soul Trance that’s about to breakthrough? No! It’s more like losing control! Is it because I consumed too much inspiration, or did reading the
“Nameless Necromancer Book” cause it?”
Su Lu knew that he absolutely couldn’t act out of instinct at this time.
Otherwise, if his spiritual body did go astray and entered the third layer of the Spirit World, he may never be able to return to his own body and become a wandering spirit.
“Indeed… any transcendent force carries risks and dangers!”
“This time, I was somewhat careless… I was too engrossed in the acquisition of knowledge… ‘
“And… the “Nameless Necromancer Book” is too strange!”
Su Lu staggered to his feet, leaning with both hands on the vanity before him, staring at himself in the mirror.
Through his gaze at this moment, his hair became extremely long, down to his ankles, lines grew on his face like the tentacles of an octopus, his clothes were rotting and black, even growing mold spots and mushrooms.
“Stare at the real you!”
“Remind yourself, it’s all an illusion!”
“Don’t waver!”
“Otherwise, once my soul truly leaps from my body and enters the Spirit
World… I might really turn into this kind of monster…”
This was something mentioned in the professional inheritance of [Spirit
Medium].
In reality, it’s the western version of avoiding deviation.
Su Lu stared at his monstrous image in the mirror: “I’d rather die than turn into this kind of deformed creature!”
He stared at his monstrous image and kept trying to ‘correct’ it.
For example, changing his hair back, imagining the disappearance of the mushrooms and mold spots.
Although it was difficult at first, it was necessary!
With the passage of time, as the inspiration recovered bit by bit, the progress accelerated quite a lot.
In the end, all the ‘phenomena’ in the mirror disappeared, and his original appearance was restored.
“Huff, huff…”
Su Lu let out a sigh of relief, almost crumbling to the ground: “So the consequences of depleting my inspiration to the brink and then encountering something terrifying are this dreadful?”
Thinking about today’s trial, he felt a cold shiver.
He was just that little bit away from potentially disappearing from the world, even his attribute column wouldn’t have been able to save him!
After resting for another hour, it was only then that Su Lu was sure that he was now alright, and picked up and put away the “Nameless Necromancer Book”:
“The horror of this thing seems to exceed my expectations…”
Having read not even half of it, he already came across the information about the fourth level profession and the third layer of the Spirit World, what does this tell?
Above this book, there must be information about the fifth level legend of the Necromancer profession! And even more information about the Spirit World! But, Su Lu no longer dared to read it.
“Reading this book, it’s not only about consuming inspiration… there’s also some inexplicable consumption that makes me feel very unwell… I’m afraid I’ll need to recuperate for a long time before I can continue reading… with restrictions, and adequate safety measures for reading.”
Su Lu was truly a little scared.
This book is just too strange
“Why did the original Angus Gold family leave it in the Demon’s Old House? Was it to leave behind a tradition?”
Su Lu couldn’t help but ponder.
This was actually very strange, instead of leaving behind the inheritance of [Fallen], why did they leave the inheritance of a necromancer, what does it mean?
“Or is it to say… the entire Angus Gold Old Mansion was just a safe, meant to store this “Nameless Necromancer Book”?”
“In that case… would the one who lost this important item come after me?” Su Lu suddenly felt a chill in his heart when he thought of this possibility.
Although in the current Federation and even the world, Demon Professionals are beings everyone curses, they surely possess quite fearsome strength.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to survive to this day.
Su Lu even suspected that Angus Gold is the top Demon family in the Federation!
“Huh? Speaking of… there’s no related records in the demon hunting notes of my ancestors…”
He suddenly thought of a doubt: “Or… was it intentionally not mentioned?”
If it was like this, then the degree of horror of the other party would be undoubtedly higher by several levels, which would put great pressure on Su
Lu..
