Chapter 325: Chapter 185: Divine Level Hidden Origin
「The next day.」
Lu Cang contacted Kumironi.
He raised his Decryption Scholar Level to 4.
The promotion process for a Decryption Scholar didn’t involve any complex situations.
After becoming a Level 4 Decryption Scholar,
he would advance as a Warrior, and finally as a Death Priest. This way, none of his Profession promotions would get stuck.
If he did it the other way around...
advancing as a Death Priest and Warrior first, the promotion requirements for Decryption Scholar would have skyrocketed to an unknown degree.
The two masteries for a Level 4 Decryption Scholar.
「Decryption Scholar Mastery: Restriction Recovery (Exclusive) — Recover some of the materials used to set up a Restriction after it has been triggered.」
「Decryption Scholar Mastery: Improvement (Exclusive) — Enhance Restrictions that you have already mastered.」
「Skill: Subconscious Breakthrough」
When you have contemplated a puzzle, your subconscious will automatically begin to solve it. Even if you don’t actively think about it, the answer to the puzzle will be found through continuous subconscious breakthroughs.
This Skill is not only useful for puzzles but is also a great help for gaining insights and contemplation.
After all, Lu Cang couldn’t possibly think about everything at once.
But with Subconscious Breakthrough, he could continue to process thoughts in his subconscious even when not actively thinking.
’Reaching Level 4 in a Profession really is a huge boost.’
And then there was the Divine Talent—「Divine Level Hidden Origin」
「Hidden Origin — Touch an object to learn of its Creator, Owner, holder, and Lost One, as well as its key information and location. You can also discreetly extract a small, comprehensible segment of Hidden Knowledge from each of them respectively.」
After getting this Talent, the first thing Lu Cang did was touch himself.
WHOOSH!
In an instant, Lu Cang’s Perception saw his parents.
「Creator: Lu Zhenghang — Hidden Knowledge: An ordinary man from Earth」
「Creator: Li Youxiang — Hidden Knowledge: An ordinary woman from Earth」
「Location — Earth」
「Self: Lu Cang — Hidden Knowledge: A man randomly teleported to the Ruelun Continent」
WHOOSH!
The Perception retracted in an instant.
Lu Cang looked dazed. A moment later, he shook his head and came back to his senses...
’I can still see my parents.’
’I can know... the concept of Earth?’
Location—Earth.
Lu Cang felt an extremely fine thread appear. But this thread didn’t point in any direction; it just hung there within his Perception.
But... he had a feeling.
Its location existed somewhere in this world.
Feeling this feedback,
countless waves crashed in Lu Cang’s heart.
He had thought that this world and Earth were completely unrelated, that Earth would only exist in his memories from now on.
He never expected to sense information about Earth and his family while in this world.
Although it was brought about by a Divine Talent,
and even though it pointed out a location, he had no idea where to even begin searching,
but, it felt like a flicker of hope had been rekindled.
’Could there be a way back?’
And the information about himself...
’Randomly teleported to the Ruelun Continent?’
’It wasn’t transmigration? It was... teleportation?’
This was incredible information. It felt like he had just learned some kind of important truth.
Lu Cang’s family life had been happy and fulfilling; he wasn’t some tragic hero who transmigrated to escape a life of suffering and deep-seated grudges.
If he had the chance...
Lu Cang still wanted to go back to Earth and see.
’At the very least, I don’t want to have just disappeared without a word.’
Maybe Earth really did exist in this world. If it was just teleportation, then the timeline should match up.
He hadn’t been gone for long, only a few months.
’There’s still time to go home.’
He hadn’t felt this excited in a long time.
Lu Cang took a deep breath, trying his best to calm himself.
’If Earth really exists, it must be a place that even Moon’s Authority cannot reach.’
’It must be far from the Ruelun Continent...’
’No, it must be very far from the Secret Sea, the Muddy Sea, and the Moon Sea.’
’I can’t just search for it blindly. But since I was teleported here, there might be a way to be teleported back.’
As for the Owner, holder, and Lost One, no information appeared for them.
After all, Lu Cang was a person; it made sense that he wouldn’t have a holder or a Lost One.
Suddenly, Lu Cang thought of something!
He gazed at the pollution pouring down from mid-air.
"Sister Kumironi!"
Kumironi turned to look at Lu Cang, her expression somewhat serious.
The pollution from Lu Cang’s promotion from Level 3 to Level 4 was already terrifying.
’At this rate, for his promotion from Level 4 to Level 5... normal methods might not be enough to suppress it.’
"Can I touch this pollution one more time?"
Lu Cang said seriously.
"Back when I was promoted to Level 2 Mage, I was also tainted by the pollution, right?"
"Can you help me cleanse it afterward?"
Kumironi’s tone was very serious. "Doing that is far more complicated than simply intercepting it."
"However... if it’s just a very small amount, it should be fine."
"Little Lu Cang, have you come up with another idea?"
Lu Cang nodded slightly.
"I just feel that passive resistance isn’t a long-term solution. If this continues, there will come a day when we can no longer hold it back."
"With my current knowledge, I might be able to unravel some of its mysteries..."
Kumironi gazed at the countless foul tadpoles being blocked outside.
She frowned slightly.
But her tone quickly softened. "Only a very small amount."
WHOOSH!
The Purification was released.
Three or four of the foul tadpoles shot toward Lu Cang’s body at incredible speed!
They instantly drilled into him!
「Creator」
HMMMM—
Within Lu Cang’s Perception, he instantly saw a massive, planet-like substance formed from an unknown number of polluted tadpoles.
「Filth Source Nest — Hidden Knowledge: The Source of all pollution, can descend into the world by borrowing a polluted body」
