It emits the radiance of a Purple Epic, indicating it's likely a scarce treasure.
[Equipment Name: Frost Cold Tome (Epic Level)]
[Equipment Level: Level 9]
[Equipment Effect: Proof of the Giants]
...
[Proof of the Giants:
1. Holding this tome bestows alliance with the Ancient Giants.
2. Via this tome, one can connect with the Frost Giant Ancestor and gain their temporary favor, boosting power attributes by 500% for fifteen minutes.]
Once he finished examining it, Levi stored the tome away.
This artifact proves highly beneficial for his expedition to the Land of Oblivion; moreover, that 500% surge offers solid value, pushing his combat strength to unprecedented heights.As he turned the pages, a marker caught his eye midway through.
[The Snow Goddess Catherine, who dwells in the Extreme Cold Mountains of the Thousand Hills Countries, emerged as the second primary gainer from the Frost Giant Ancestor’s collapse, after devouring the Frost Giant Soul, which elevated her to a premier force among the mighty Gods.
Upon my rise to Supreme, she reached out to me first, proposing a partnership and disclosing her hidden truth; the Frost Giant Ancestor lingers in a state short of total demise.
Even prior to the Heavenly Chopping, it had set up a contingency, covertly founding the Giant Kingdom and concealing all Giant clans inside as a spark of survival.
Employing hidden arts, it dispersed its soul essence, spreading it equally across every Frost Giant bearing Frost Blood, allowing passage via bloodline legacy.
Should even one endure, rebirth becomes possible. Yet I suspect the reborn entity won't truly be the original.
Still, it clings to the conviction that it embodies the Frost Blood!
With the Bloodline enduring, immortality follows!
The price of that arcane method was its descent into utter madness... a fractured mind, far more disordered than the Abyss Will, fueled by its fixation on Heavenly Chopping, propelling it into the astral realm for a rampage of slaughter.
Ultimately, two avatars of the Star Ancestor joined forces to annihilate it in the astral world, where its form was consumed by the Gods—perhaps it had anticipated such an end.
Yet it refused to yield, rekindling its fervor inside the Snow Goddess's vessel.
It craves one more opportunity, leading us to our alliance. It foretold that in some distant era, its renewed will might resurgence through bearers of Frost Blood. However, it recognizes the constraints of the Giant lineage, desiring a fresh form.
It seeks to merge the Frost Giant’s Blood with the wizard's way, exploring if a creature surpassing itself—even outstripping me, Sauron—could arise.
It noted that the Ultimate Creation, which once terrorized the Four Realms before its downfall, devised a forbidden art tied to the Frost Giants, with traces of its bloodline lingering in human veins. It aims to revive its will within human hosts, embracing a renewed existence.
I urged patience... I claimed unreadiness, insisting the ideal moment lay far ahead. Scattered, sporadic assaults won't conquer the astral world; we need to rally every ally at the pivotal instant for a unified blow to claim victory—if you place faith in me, adhere to my strategy.
It consented.
In defeat, it grasped its lack of cunning in plots.
I inquired, what if the Frost Giant Ancestor’s future will collides with human resolve? It replied that fate decides, a contest of strengths.
Victory means a genuine second life.
Defeat still leaves it from total oblivion.
As long as it holds firm to being the core of Frost Blood, then Yugmir’s essence endures forever, unyielding.
Doesn't this smack of Ah Q mentality? I respect the Ancestor of Giants; my ordinary human mindset falls short of such depths.
Prior to departing the Ice and Snow Divine Country, it handed over fragments of its hidden Evolution Stone Plate collection.
It explained these hold the secret to bloodline advancement. The Ultimate Creation reached Supreme by securing them, amassing the Blood of Ten Thousand Spirits.
However, depending only on bloodline, even at its zenith, won't guarantee true supremacy; the Ultimate Creation serves as proof, so it values the wizard's path immensely.
Bloodline and Body serve as the foundation;
Soul and Will form the essence.
All beings blend matter and spirit. But from antiquity, no one has mastered both to their utmost.
The Star Ancestor represents the pinnacle of positive spiritual unity, Nightmare the depths of negative spiritual unity, while Abyss and Underworld, despite their might, remain flawed.
By exhausting the Blood of Ten Thousand Spirits and compiling all Knowledge, fusing the pair could surpass everything, forging that ultimate Universe... the Supreme Being.
What we term Supreme are simply those who brush the boundary.
Shattering that boundary births true Supremacy!
The Supreme Realm might equate to Level 12, or perhaps Level 100.
For it marks the Universe's closure, yet also Time's dawn.
I posed the question: upon attaining the "Supreme Realm," would life supplant the Land of Darkness, incarnate the way, and spawn a fresh Universe, locked in eternal cycles?
It offered no reply, nor could I.
Our current levels bar us from grasping the full scope.
Before my exit, it orchestrated the downfall and capture of its devoted Angel Leader at my hands, ensuring my neutrality and avoiding doubts from fellow Gods.
The Shattered Jade Divine Spear pierces to its secret Giant Kingdom; when that day arrives and I'm set, we'll converge and battle anew!
Following my exit from the Ice and Snow Divine Country, I sought the final pair among the seven orthodox gods. As anticipated, both the King of Ten Thousand Dragons and the Lord of the Stars acted as covert operatives too.
These vanquished ones harbor unquenched desires.
The astral world once stood as their origin, their haven; they are the true luminaries of the multidimensional plane, beyond mere Divine Kingdoms forged from belief.
