"In other words, Spirit Hall of that generation had no Holy Son, only a Holy Maiden. And this world has no cultivation technique system either, correct?"
"Yes. That is what Tang Sect history says."
Before Wu Ling, Bennett Bei and Talia Tang had just been subdued at once by the Dragon Frame. Afterward, Wu Ling used Magecraft hypnosis on them. As the current Tang Sect master, Talia Tang was certain to know some things about the past, especially the Tang Sect's founding history and its first sect master. That kind of knowledge was definitely required study for every generation of sect master.
According to Talia Tang's confession, Wu Ling learned that when Tang San founded the Tang Sect, Spirit Hall had no Holy Son. There were also no soul tools or cultivation techniques of any kind.
Combined with the female "Asher Vale" from earlier, Wu Ling could now determine that this was absolutely a Peerless Tang Sect parallel world. In this parallel world, he did not exist.
It was not that Wu Ling wanted to brag, but the cultivation techniques he had created alone should have been enough to leave his name in history forever.
Wu Ling asked Talia a few more questions and discovered that aside from Asher Vale's change, everything else in this world was identical to the plot of The Peerless Tang Sect.
Finally, Wu Ling looked at the hypnotized Talia Tang, and a mischievous smile touched his face.
Do not think in the wrong direction. Wu Ling merely had her demonstrate the Tang Sect secret arts.
"Tang San, your Tang Sect secret arts are pretty average, so I will reluctantly take them." Wu Ling learned everything after watching only once.
Even Tang San probably would never have imagined that he would be backstabbed by the Tang Sect before he had even founded it.
"Skills like Purple Demon Eye and Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon count as self-created Spirit Skills on Soul Land. If someone learns them from scratch, it might cause a situation like Isaac Gale in the original story. But I can add these into my cultivation techniques. As long as Spirit Power flows in a certain sequence, the lower-level versions of these skills can be used. Most importantly, they do not need separate cultivation. They can be used directly."
"These medicinal herb and poison formulas can enrich Rose's database as well. Once she iterates on them, will that not produce something even better? And in this era, the things inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well should have appeared again."
"Still, the most important problem right now is that fellow Tang San, who has already become a god." Wu Ling narrowed his eyes and looked toward the sky.
Just now, when he stopped Bennett Bei and Talia Tang from meeting Asher Vale, he had sensed a faint, almost nonexistent gaze. Asher Vale's path in the plot had practically been controlled by Tang San from beginning to end. Therefore, as someone who had come into contact with Asher Vale, Wu Ling would inevitably enter the current Tang San's field of view. Of course, that did not mean he was afraid.
With a wave of his hand, Wu Ling made Bennett Bei and Talia Tang forget him and everything that had just happened. The next second, the two collapsed unconscious. A short while after Wu Ling left, they slowly woke up.
"Ugh. Why does my whole body ache? It feels like someone manhandled me from head to toe," Talia Tang complained tearfully to Bennett Bei after waking.
Bennett Bei also stretched, kneading his muscles. He felt an abnormal exhaustion throughout his body too. But when he tried to think about what had just happened, the memory was so blurred that he could not put it into words.
As the two of them continued wondering what had happened, that strange sense of wrongness gradually became normal, as if their fainting just now had been as natural and unremarkable as taking a step while walking.
"Awooo!"
With a Soul Beast howl, the Soul Beasts that Tian Meng Iceworm had stunned began gradually waking. Bennett Bei and Talia Tang's expressions changed when they heard those voices. Although they were currently in the outer edge of the Star Soul Forest, no one knew what Soul Beast or beast pack might appear here at night.
One of them was a Spirit Elite, and the other was a Spirit Adept. They did not dare remain any longer. Their priority was leaving quickly. As for Talia Tang's third Spirit Ring, they could search for it the next day in daylight.
And so, as their attention shifted, the matter of their earlier fainting was forgotten completely. The two turned and ran toward the outside of the Star Soul Forest.
Wu Ling paid little attention to those two important figures who were supposed to guide Asher Vale into Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect.
He had already returned to Asher Vale's side and was listening to Rose's analysis.
"I sensed the space-time anchor we left behind. It gives me the feeling of something I can see but cannot touch. Combined with the information you gathered just now, main body, we can confirm this is a parallel world."
"As for the reason, it should be that when we entered the distorted space-time region, Electrolux's aura influenced us. By accident, we arrived in a parallel world."
Wu Ling nodded and asked, "Can we go back?"
"If we were the kind of people who had only strength and no vision, then all we could do is return to the distorted space-time region and gamble. The greater possibility would be getting lost in the endless void."
"Even the original Medea did not possess Magecraft involving parallel worlds, which touches Type-Moon's Second Magic." At this point, Rose revealed an excited smile.
"But Medea is me, and I am not only Medea. With Sasaki's slash, which touches the Second Magic, as a model, plus the coordinates of our anchor, I am confident I can design a method for crossing parallel worlds."
"So leave this method to me. I will break through it without mercy."
"Doing True Magic with the body of a magus. How exciting!"
Seeing Rose grow excited, Wu Ling nodded and stopped interfering. Since Rose said she was confident, all he needed to do now was believe her.
"Mm..."
A soft groan sounded. Wu Ling turned and saw the blue-haired girl waking with hazy eyes.
"You are awake."
The girl, who had still been dazed, immediately became alert when she heard Wu Ling's voice. She looked at him cautiously.
In her sea of consciousness, Tian Meng Iceworm had told her that Wu Ling and that little gray sphere were very likely from outside the world. Because of that, she was extremely nervous in front of Wu Ling. After all, she had nearly died even at the outer edge of the Star Soul Forest. Outside the world sounded far beyond anything she could understand.
Wu Ling studied the blue-haired girl before him. Then he suddenly asked, "What is your name?"
Wu Ling knew the name Asher Vale, but in a parallel world where even the person's sex had changed, the name might have changed as well. And if she still had been named Asher Vale, this would also give him an excuse for knowing it.
The girl blushed under Wu Ling's gaze. When she heard his question, she hurriedly answered, "Clara Vale. My name is Clara Vale."
