Chapter 247: Zan-Bu of the Bone Sculpting People

When the bone rat came out, it was very excited. It touched the bone stick, the fish bone fossil, took a bite of the sundial watch, and finally jumped onto the disc plate.

Yan Mo was delighted to see this and immediately established a spiritual connection with the bone rat, but what came was only what the other side saw, and there was no other explanation.

The bone mouse did not know.                                 

With a glimmer of hope, Yan Mo sank into the world of inheritance.

He re-entered the inheritance Hall of the 1st Rank, because he found that up to 4th Rank, the answers appeared to be the most detailed of the first female voice, and she seemed to have prepared answers for some questions in advance, as long as you asked them, she would give answers. Unlike the old man's voice that led him in or the man's voice that appeared in the 4th Rank, no redundant questions would be answered.

"Son, why are you back? Is there any problem?" The gentle female voice seemed to be smiling.

Yan Mo guessed that the woman must have been a popular teacher before she died. "h.e.l.lo, yes, I saw some bone-refined products handed down from time immemorial outside. I think it was probably the bone objects made in your time. I can't see their use and I want to find an answer."

"Well, bone sculpting products, bone objects, use, seeking answers, there is a consistent answer. Son, are you looking for the sea of knowledge? There you can see all the knowledge of bone-building acc.u.mulated by our family.

It turned out that libraries do exist! Excellent! He wanted to do so wonderfully. How could it be that the whole Bone Sculpting People's knowledge heritage did not exist as a library?

Yan Mo suppressed his excitement and asked, "How can I go to the sea of knowledge?"

"As long as you pa.s.s the test of 4th Rank bone sculpting, your soul will be marked, and the sea of knowledge will be open to you. This is what everyone in my family knows when they enter the place of inheritance. Child, where you come in, where our family's bones are, that is, the sea of knowledge, sink into it, lie on the bones of our ancestors, and think about the shape of the bone objects you want to know. If our ancestors know, you will get that answer in the sea of knowledge.

"Thank you." Knowing that the other party no longer exists, all she left behind was her spiritual strength and a well-recorded answer, but he expressed his grat.i.tude sincerely.

Yan Mo exited the 1st Rank Heritage Hall and returns to where he first entered.

He never understood why there were so many bones in the place he entered, although he knew they were not real, and why they were half sank in the water.

Now he finally realized that the bones were not intended to be frightening or simply decorative. They represented the collection of inheritance of the Bone Sculpting People's innumerable ancestors, and that the water, he guessed, might be a medium through which his spiritual power could communicate with the consciousness or spiritual power left by the Bone Sculpting People's ancestors.

Yan Mo lay in the pool, transparent water flooding his mouth and nose until he slowly sank to the bottom.

Close your eyes and see the shape of the bone stick in your head, and ask, "Tell me, what this is?"

What spread around, and soon a voice rang out: "It's been a long time since I was 40 years old. This one of the most satisfying bone objects I've ever done. Why? You're not my Tribesmen? You look strange, like a semi-intelligent creature living near the Amoluo River, but you look much better than them. They all looked a little silly.”

Yan Mo didn't know how to answer, so he could only keep silent.

The man's personality seemed lively, and he said, "Your spirit is a little strange, a little different from ours, but you can come here and hear my voice, which shows that your spirit can be shared with us. But your mental strength is not strong enough. It seems that you can only hear my voice but not see me in my handsomest form as ever.

Yan Mo had a smile on his face: "h.e.l.lo, can you tell me what the stick does?"

The lively man's voice laughed and said, "Since you can come here, that's the recognition of your bones knowledge, and I won't hide it from you. First of all, it's not a stick. It's a snake. Unfortunately, your mental strength is not strong enough to see the image I sent you, otherwise you will understand at a glance."

Yan Mo: "Bone Snake?"

Man: "Yes, it is made from the snake-man's bone of 9th Rank blood warrior. With the 9th yuan-crystal, it can be used as a 9th rank snake-man blood ability warrior."

9th rank blood ability warriors!

Didn't the Snake People go on an all-out war with you?

Now I finally know why your tribesmen died. Do you often steal people's corpses or kill other intelligent creatures just to make powerful bonne puppets?

Yan Mo's spiritual inquiry was calm: "Can we only have it startup with a 9th rank yuan-crystal?"

"No, the crystals above 5th Rank can start it up, but the bone warrior can't exert its strongest power, but it can also be used as puppets. Startup? It's an interesting word. Your race is very intelligent. Why don't I know there is such a race? Do you live in the sea?”

"No, I live on the mainland. You haven't seen my race, maybe it's because I'm living a long, long time period apart from you."

"Oh, has it been a long time?" The man's voice sounded a little sad.

Yan Mo was so curious that he couldn't help asking, "Are you alive or dead now? Why can your spirit answer me like this? Are you keeping your whole soul in this situation?”

The man laughed. “Not everyone can keep a fairly complete soul after death like me. Soul? Soul? Maybe your race has something relation with us. If your spiritual strength is strong enough in the future, you will be able to completely separate yourself from the physical body.”

Yan Mo was so shocked that he couldn't replicate the same question he had asked before, "So you're equivalent to living an eternal life?"

The man laughed. “Son, no spirit can exist forever unless you put it in a special container. G.o.d makes wise creatures depend on the body to walk and think in the world. Naturally, there are reasons why he has to do so.”

Yan Mo's whole soul is shining, and he had no idea that a sea of knowledge inquiry would bring him such a great harvest!

He urgently asked, "Is there a suitable special container, and then put the soul into it, you can continue to live instead of the body?"

The man was quiet for a long time before he answered, "Our tribe made puppets from bone sculpting in order to get containers for souls, but we studied for a long time and failed after generations of efforts, only to find that yuan-crystal could act as an energy for puppets to be able to move on their own, and good bone objects can carry a part of the mental force.”

"But your soul is now in this bond."

"The sea of knowledge is the only and most special existence of our people. Its sculpting process can't be duplicated. It is a miracle. Only the raw materials to make a sea of knowledge like this can't be found any more." The lively man's voice suddenly became low, with some obvious sadness.

What Yan Mo understands is that the Bone Sculpting People has contributed its body to a great being, perhaps their wizard or Chief, and that person's ability is probably the strongest in the history of the Bone Sculpting People.

"Are there many souls like yours in the sea of knowledge?"

The man paused and his voice became clear again: "Soul in the sea of knowledge is not used to talk to you to relieve boredom, we need to maintain the integrity of the soul and that consumes a lot of energy, so you should remember to often change the crystal on the bone."

"What if there is no crystal?"

"We will fall asleep, and the initial strength in the sculpted bone will protect us, and every time we change the crystal, part of the energy in the crystal will be stored in the body of the bone, and the bone-skull itself will absorb the free energy of the world. But these energies are not enough to wake up the soul in the bondage, so you will find that every time you enter the sea of knowledge, every time you ask a question, only one person will answer you.”

"Then can you touch the outside world?"

"No, our spiritual power can't extend to the outside world. Once our spiritual power leaves the bond, it can't be protected by the bond of the sea of knowledge. The extended spiritual power will be destroyed. Our soul remaining in the bond will naturally be hurt and gradually become incomplete, even forgetting the existence of ourselves, and can only be changed into a period of time into a remnant memory."

"Isn't that a disguised form of imprisonment? Wouldn't you feel so miserable? Don't you want eternal sleep?"

"Imprisonment? There is a reason why the sea of knowledge is called the sea, but this can't tell you unless you want to transfer your soul to the bone in the future. The souls who want to sleep forever will no longer wake up. All they leave behind is memory. Later, you will encounter such spiritual bodies. They are no longer complete souls, but only have some images or sounds, which are the most important knowledge residues in their memory.”

Yan Mo laughed. “It looks like I'm lucky today.

"That's true." The man also laughed. "You are the same as the puppies in our family. They all have a lot of questions, and they always ask one after another. Do you have any other questions? Remember, not everyone is as talkative as I am. Some people have bad temper and get angry, but they will attack your spirit and body directly.”

Yan Mo wanted to ask a lot of questions. He thought for a moment and decided to clarify four bone objects first.

"Why did the 9th rank snake puppet become a bone stick? How do I start it?"

"Because it's not easy to carry an entire snake man bones structure, and in order to save crystal, 9th rank crystal is not a very easy thing to do." The man sighed again, "Did you see three light lines on that stick? Hold the top and the last section, twist it, pull it apart, and there will be an energy hole embedded with yuan-crystal shape below. Fill in the yuan-crystals, and it will become a snake Puppet by itself.”

"What is its ability?"

"It can swallow and store things, hang, clear the way, and you can ride on it. Its tail is quite strong." The man was obviously proud of his work.

"I've seen snake people. Many of them can swallow things into another s.p.a.ce, not eat them, but store them. Does this puppet have this ability?"

"Opening up another s.p.a.ce requires special spiritual support, that is, the soul of the snake man. But as I said before, bone objects can carry certain spiritual power, but not the whole soul, so the snake skeleton puppet cannot store anything in its s.p.a.ce because the part of its memory exists and before you can use it you need to wipe off the existing spiritual bond in the bone and engrave yours before you can use any bone object you find."

"How do I wipe it?"

"Spiritual engraving. Do you know how spiritual force is printed? I remember that 4th Rank or 5th Rank's inheritance will teach you how to do, I will not elaborate here. When you have finished the spiritual engraving of a certain bone object, the mental marker that belongs to you, like a tattoo, will appear on that bone object, and you can manipulate it with your own spiritual force.

Yan Mo thought of a question: "If someone is more spiritual than me, can he grab that bone object, erase my spiritual stamp and engrave himself?"

"Of course. So I suggest you'd better not use this 9th rank puppet for the time being. It's much higher than your current ability level. 9th rank puppet is not very common. There are many Tribesmen and other wise races who want it.”

Not very common. I'm afraid it's very rare now. Yan Mo is a little disappointed. The 9th rank snake puppet sounds great, but he doesn't have high-level crystals. The snake puppet is just a stick in his hand, and he doesn't want to get into a feud with The Snake People.

"By the way, I don't know what to call you yet?"

The man laughed heartily. “My name is Zan-Bu, son. What's your name?'

"Yan Mo."

"Strange name."

"Zan-Bu, I have three other bone objects that I would like to consult with you. If you know all of them, then..." Yan Mo did not finish his words, and suddenly felt that something was pulling him, as if it was going to drag him out of the sea of knowledge.

"Zan-Bu, I seem to be forced to leave. I'll come back to you later." Yan Mo was forced out of the sea of knowledge before he finished speaking. Before he came out, he seemed to hear Zan-Bu's laughter faintly.

Yan Mo sat up from the pool.

The old voice of the leader immediately sounded in his ear: "Son, you have been in the sea of knowledge for too long, and the energy is almost exhausted. Now you must go out and replace the crystal immediately. It must be over 5th Rank. If you can't replace the crystal before the energy is used up, the bone will absorb your own energy until that too is exhausted. You run out and do that."

Yan Mo wanted to scold this voice. Why didn't she tell him at first about the serious consequences? Well, he should have known for a long time that there is no free lunch in the world, and Zan-Bu has actually told him in his conversation that talking directly to the soul takes a lot of energy.

But he remembered that the female voice at the beginning told him that the crystal could be maintained until he reached the advanced level. But now he just said a few words to the soul in the sea of knowledge, and even consumed a high-order crystal?

What is the grade of the oval crystal? Because he didn't know the properties of the crystal, he couldn't give it to Yuan Zhan to absorb, and now he's running out of one.

Yan Mo feels he's losing his gains. Although he learned some knowledge about The Bone Sculpting People, he can't use the 9th rank snake puppet!

Doesn't it mean that the bones absorb the free energy around them? Dare I belong to one of the free energies? Or do you prefer to start with the latest energy?

Yan Mo, whose excitement was replaced by anger, came out of the bones, he pulled out a spare transparent oval crystal from his pocket, and hatefully replaced the bone object of the bracelet on his arm.

[1] The bone bracelet is the head skull that Yan Mo got from the bone inheritance cave when he went there for a second time... through his own sculpting he changed the head skull crown into a bracelet...

Just at this moment, he heard some unfavorable voices coming downstairs.

Who's that pretentious speaker? Why is Yuan Zhan still downstairs? Didn't he go to see the slaves? Why did he suddenly come back?

Yan Mo did not know that Yuan Zhan was blocked by The Moer-Gan People as soon as he left the house. He entered the bone inheritance before Yuan Zhan went downstairs. Jiu Feng and the bee were there, and he wasn't afraid that someone would suddenly rush up the second floor.

The voices talking downstairs became louder and more likely to become conflicting.

"Qi Yuan, let me ask him! Hey, tell me, did someone come into your house with a fish in the middle of the night last night?”

"Are you questioning me? Where is that fool?”

Yan Mo's lips felt sour, and he could imagine how angry Yuan Zhan was when he said that.

Sure enough, the person questioned jumped up and almost shouted at him and said, "You! Who are you calling a fool? Do you know whose territory this is?'

"Qi Hao!" Qi Yuan's voice of stopping and Yuan Zhan's provocative laughter resounded at the same time.

Yan Mo got up. He planned to go down and see the excitement first. The remaining three bone objects would be asked later.
