Chapter 456: Chapter 456: The Backlash of the Plane Will

Within the Creation Rubik’s Cube, everything about this cluster of Totem Seeds was laid bare before Lin Xiao’s eyes.

Whether it was the exterior or interior, even the most primitive composition of the many materials that constituted the Totem Seed was meticulously displayed in front of him, clear at a glance.

Threads of Creation Energy turned into mist, pervading the space within the Creation Rubik’s Cube. His will, taking the perspective of the Creation Rubik’s Cube and nourished by Creation Energy, entered an extremely unique state, which in the terms of Eastern Fantasy could be called an epiphany.

In this state, he easily comprehended the deepest mysteries of the Totem Core.

In this state, he saw that at the very depths of the Totem Core, there was an imperceptible thread passing through the void, connecting to his body.

To be precise, it connected to his totem.

Of course, the relationship between the Totem Core and the totem was common knowledge, no secret at all. But knowing it was one thing, no one could see this connecting thread and its deeper mysteries as clearly as he could.

In this state, Lin Xiao’s True Body, also immersed in the Creation Rubik’s Cube, suddenly had a strong feeling. With a thought, his consciousness stimulated Creation Energy, beginning to make some sort of modification to the Totem Core, which was laid out as clearly to his vision as if under a microscope.

This modification wasn’t a sudden whim but was based on the knowledge Lin Xiao’s True Body had and the divine rules he mastered. Especially since he had restructured the foundational rule network within the Crystal Wall System’s Core that composed his soul’s shell, obtaining some knowledge only the Lord of the Crystal Wall System would possess, which led to an idea.

The idea seemed simple, just unachievable for other deities.

He thought that the Totem Core was composed of Godhood, Power of Faith, plane rules, a powerful soul, and the Supreme Naga’s Blood Essence. However, under such microscopic analysis, the structure of the Totem Core could, in fact, be altered, or to say, except for the main component, certain parts could be replaced with other things.

The main component was blood essence and a large amount of Soul Power; other parts could be substituted with other elements, such as Divine Power or other energies of the same rank.

Of course, if other elements were used as substitutes, the effects of the Totem Core would change accordingly—it was inevitable.

Lin Xiao wasn’t concerned about changes. Everything is improved step by step. The current high death rate of totem warriors forming their Totem Cores obviously indicated imperfection. He had turned the former death rate of approximately eighty percent into a success rate of eighty percent, and even with lowered standards, there was still a fifty percent success rate. This was an improvement.

Now he needed to go further, to readjust and improve this thing once more.

He already had two ideas that needed to be tested one by one.

The first idea was to adapt the Totem Core into a profession similar to the totem warriors, where one simply needed sufficient conditions to change professions and then gradually acquire strength similar to totem warriors by increasing their Professional Level.

The biggest advantage of this idea was its stability and safety since it was just a profession. The initial power gained would be small, and accordingly, the risks would be low.

However, it also had a downside, which was a lower ceiling. After all, it was just a profession. Giving up the powerful bloodline inheritance of totem warriors meant that the ceiling would undoubtedly be lower than that of totem warriors of the same level.

The second idea was to extract the essence of the Totem Core, such as the Big Nagas Blood Essence from the Supreme Naga totem warriors, and use it as the core to adjust into a bloodline profession.

That is, integrating the modified Big Nagas Blood Essence directly into the Natives’ own bloodline, overlaying the weak human bloodline with the powerful Naga bloodline, thereby giving them the potential to ascend to Supreme Naga, similar to the Lesser Naga.

After all, the bloodline cultivated to its ultimate point would lead to a return to its ancestral source.

Not only was it similar to the totem warrior’s high-level state when merging with their totem, but it was also stronger and more enduring than the totem warrior.

Moreover, this bloodline wasn’t just any bloodline, but a bloodline profession, focusing on the bloodline as the main aspect and gradually excavating the bloodline powers of the profession.

“Or perhaps, I don’t need to plunder the power system of totem warriors, but instead use it as a reference and create a more suitable profession or system for myself?”

“No, a system is better!”

Compared to a profession, a system had greater potential and broader applications.

With this thought, Lin Xiao resolved to focus his mind on the Totem Core, which was almost as detailed as if under a microscope, beginning to strip away the redundant elements within the Totem Core, and adding what he needed.

Most core among these was a blank Profession Card template.

This was easy to solve, as previously when he transformed the Wise Goblins into Star Spirits, a Frost Magician Profession Card became available.

He stripped away the Frost Magician profession system from this card, leaving a blank Profession Card template, which was then integrated into the Totem Core that was stripped of many elements, retaining only the core bloodline, merging the Naga bloodline within this framework of the Totem Core.

Despite the Totem Core’s multiplicity of elements being stripped away and leaving only the essence of the Naga bloodline, the most critical point was still the framework of the Totem Core. Without this framework, his idea could not be constructed.

The framework of the Totem Core was the core of this plane’s totem warrior power system. After all, the blood essence within could be replaced at will; it could be the blood essence of the Supreme Naga, the Giant Lizard, the Flying Dragon, or even that of the Star Spirits or the Thunder Wings.

The core framework combined with the Profession Module, but the new system wasn’t yet formed. Lin Xiao glanced at the more than thirteen hundred points of Creation Energy he still had. With a thought, a full hundred units of Creation Energy burned, and infinite chaotic Creation Energy surged forth within the Magic Cube Space, quickly converging into a slowly contracting vortex.

“Boom!”

A peal of thunder abruptly erupted from the clear sky, the cloudless Vault of Heaven suddenly brightened, and a massive bolt of Lightning appeared out of nowhere, slamming into the base with the fury of almost the entire plane.

To the north of Snake Lizard Main Island, on the southern side of a vast tribe that stretched over a dozen kilometers, there was a huge Lake. Accompanying this bolt from the blue, the lake’s water boiled, and an enormous black-scaled snake head the size of a building emerged from the water and gazed towards the heavens, unmoving for a long time.

At the same time, in the middle of a large swamp to the south of Snake Lizard Main Island, countless dark bubbles burst, and wisps of black flame rose from the bursting bubbles, converging into a cloud of black fog that enshrouded half the swamp. Within the haze, a shadow as large as a small hill rose slowly, and a halo of gray energy shot out, rapidly spreading tens of kilometers away.

Meanwhile, countless powerful beings throughout the plane sensed the thunderbolt laden with extreme rage and turned their gazes in the same direction.

Atop a giant tree a hundred meters tall, where a platform made of leaves held a small wooden cabin, Cao Yichen, enveloped in a faint green glow, sat in front of the cabin, frowning deeply in that direction, murmuring to himself after a moment:

“That’s Snake Lizard Main Island. Those two are over there. Does this anomaly have something to do with them?”

Sitting beside him was another man with braided hair, who said upon hearing this:

“Shall I go check it out personally? You said that kid doesn’t listen, should I go and warn him?”

Cao Yichen gestured for him to stop and shook his head:

“No need. I never intended to let them leave safely anyway.”

He said coldly:

“They’re just cannon fodder; let them develop freely. Ten years from now, we’ll reap the benefits. Right now, our main enemies are still the two seniors from Year Three.”

“But, I’ve heard that the kid is quite famous. He was once one of the Deputy Rank contenders for the Young Prodigy list during high school, and the girl who came with him is said to be the direct daughter of someone important. Shouldn’t we…”

“Just a Deputy Rank contender. Wait until he can still secure his place in the official Young Prodigy rankings next year. The first year at the university is simply an extension of the high school rankings. That kid has a very ordinary background; once restrictions are lifted at university, he’ll be overtaken and kicked off the list in no time. If he can even remain on the list of three thousand exceptional talents a year from now, I’d say he’s capable.”

The man with braids laughed:

“That’s not easy. Many high school super elites have been caught up by their less accomplished peers upon entering university, a disparity most people couldn’t handle.”

“However, the girl who came with him, I heard her identity is not ordinary. How should we deal with her?”

Cao Yichen considered for a moment:

“It depends. As long as she doesn’t clearly oppose us, there’s no need to bother. If they insist on being troublesome, then don’t hold back. Her background might be extraordinary, but are we ordinary?”

“Right, they can only summon a limited number of Clans. No matter how strong they get in ten years, they won’t get very far. It’s perfect, let them prepare a few hundred thousand Cannon Fodder for us. Though these Cannon Fodder won’t make up for the gap between us and the seniors, narrowing the difference is still beneficial.”

“Lately, freshmen from Year One have been discovering this plane, with twenty-two identified so far; most are willing to cooperate with us. If even half of them can develop to meet our expectations, we’ll gain over a million Cannon Fodder and nearly ten thousand Totem Warriors. That’s a formidable force capable of altering the course of a large-scale war and consequently affecting the overall situation.”

“By the way, possibly influenced by us, the two seniors from Year Three seem to be initiating contact with the newcomers who have just entered the plane.”

“Don’t mind them. We already have the upper hand; they can’t catch up with us.”

In the western part of distant Snake Lizard Main Island, out of sight, near the Dragon Tribe, the base was thrown into chaos. That bolt of Lightning was sudden and unexpected; Lin Xiao’s Divine Extraordinary Ability of foresight gave no warning at all, and he and his girlfriend were completely unprepared and caught off guard.

The result was that the large stone platform in the center of the base, which was over two hundred meters in diameter, had all of its structures swept away. Numerous Star Spirits’ meticulously sculpted statues and ornaments were obliterated, and even the stone structure of the platform was blasted away, its debris scattered outside the base.

Fortunately, they were Demigods with abundant Divine Power. He carried over a million units of Divine Power, and his girlfriend, a little rich girl, was even wealthier than him.

So even though it was a close call, they were unharmed.
