Chapter 268: Wisdom's Enlightenment, Information Left Inside the Spellbook

I didn't dwell on this too much.

I was already the one taking advantage, so what was there to be pretentious about?

Returning to our campsite tent, I directly took out the Earth Vein system again.

I had to simulate the modding first before I could do it for real.

After all, messing with the internal structure could cause the spellbook to collapse, let alone messing with the internal rune ritual, right?

Although the Earth Vein system couldn't perfectly replicate the real situation, it could help me avoid unnecessary errors on major principles, which was already a great help to me.

After a series of attempts, constantly reorganizing according to the sketch, I finally tried out more than a dozen possible methods.

This "possible method" meant that the spellbook wouldn't collapse, but it didn't mean the effect would be good.

It wasn't impossible that using it would cause a mental breakdown.

But I would still continue to try.

“Little Han, are you hesitating about something?”

Bai Yu approached me at this moment and asked with concern.

“Mm… it's a bit risky, I'm afraid I'll break this spellbook.”

“Use mine. I'm just here to help you complete this mission. I don't have a pressing need for this spellbook.”

Bai Yu said decisively, then took out her own spellbook and prepared to hand it over.

“Hmm? Sorry, it seems there's a problem.”

Just as Bai Yu was about to hand it over, she discovered a problem.

“I see, because of the exchange contract, this spellbook can't be given to others because it doesn't belong to me. But it's okay, Little Han, if you want to do something to the spellbook, you can still do it.”

“Is that alright? The Meditation Method is definitely beneficial to oneself. If I fail, Big Sis Bai, you might gain nothing in this secret realm.”

“It's not that I'll gain nothing. Big Sis Bai, I've already gained a lot. The Meditation Method is about the same as the Witch Meditation Method for me. I'll just meditate then.”

“Alright…”

Although I really wanted to say that the Meditation Method and the Witch Meditation Method were very different, or rather, fundamentally different, Big Sis Bai insisted, so I couldn't refuse.

“Thank you, Big Sis Bai.”

I took the spellbook from Big Sis Bai's hand without hesitation.

Although after taking it, I found that there seemed to be a force restraining me from putting it inside my body, but it wasn't a problem for me to mod it.

I looked through the dozen or so plans again.

The chances were few, so I should of course choose the most stable method to try.

I extended my mental power and gently pried open the spellbook's outer shell.

Not only me, but even Bai Yu at this moment was staring at this scene.

Even if she couldn't see it clearly, she understood that this was not a domain she could get involved in.

This feeling of watching the other person surpass oneself in a certain field… it's truly wonderful, Bai Yu constantly lamented in her heart.

The process of modding was actually very fast.

After all, some things couldn't be slowed down just because one was being careful, but required both speed and precision.

At this moment, my situation could definitely be described as treading on thin ice.

If there was any mistake, this spellbook in Big Sis Bai's hand would definitely not be saved.

Although in the exchange contract, if this spellbook broke, it wouldn't affect the original spellbook being returned, I still subconsciously wanted to give Big Sis Bai the best.

But after modding, I found a very strange problem.

That was, this spellbook's structure gave me a "loose" feeling, completely different from the spellbooks I had modded before.

Taking the Memory Bookshelf spellbook as an example, that kind of tightness and the obscurity during modification was very draining on my energy.

But this spellbook didn't have that feeling, as if its underlying structure was designed for me to constantly try different combinations.

“Wait… this isn't right! It shouldn't be like this… this arrangement is wrong, the Earth Vein system is screwing me… the most similar arrangement… suc… succeeded?”

After proving that the most likely successful arrangement I had first found was wrong, I quickly changed the plan and finally saved the spellbook.

At least this spellbook was stable now.

“Is it done?”

Bai Yu asked at this moment.

“I'm not sure, but the structure is stable.”

I shook my head.

In the end, I had overestimated myself.

Perhaps there were other proper methods in this secret realm, but my current brute force and opportunistic cheating had indeed made me a little mentally and physically exhausted.

“Is that so? But I feel like a piece of information has appeared inside the spellbook. It's… somewhat similar to the way spell descriptions are stored. I'm sure this information wasn't there before.”

Bai Yu said at this moment.

“What? Information? What is it? Forget it, I'll try too.”

Hearing Big Sis Bai's words, I immediately got excited, but my rationality still suppressed my impulse.

The appearance of information meant that my attempt was successful.

This must be the information left behind to advance the mission to the next step!

And with the previous attempt, I was already familiar with the arrangement for my own spellbook.

Watching the spellbook change in my hands, soon a piece of hidden information did emerge.

As expected… the existence of a spellbook is truly magical.

“Congratulations. If you're seeing this message, it means you've figured out most of my arrangements and the clues I left behind. I also thank you for your contribution to the Fool's Dream clan. Since the Fool's Dream clan was willing to take you to their ancestral land, it means you have gained their trust, and they are even willing to use their greatest treasure to unlock the secret of the spellbook's reconstruction for you.”

“Next, I will tell you what you should do at this step. The spellbook you have exchanged for has now become a true spellbook. Its name is the Primary Meditation Method. As for the Intermediate and Advanced Meditation Methods, they naturally exist, but you who have come this far probably don't need me to remind you how to obtain them. Cultivate it well, it can help you develop your comprehension, enlighten your wisdom, and connect your thoughts.”

“The secrets within the Fool's Village secret realm that I have arranged end here. But it certainly has other secrets. This cannot be forced. Perhaps this secret is no longer useful to me, but I think for you students, it will definitely be a wonderful reward, and may even be an unbearable gift. But I will quietly wait for such a student to appear, and I will give a great gift for it. — Mei Linde”

“Mei Linde… this is…”

I looked at the last name, and I was sure I had no impression of it.

“This is the name of one of the Academy Heads in our Witch Academy. Remember? This secret realm was provided by an Academy Head.”

Bai Yu said from the side.

She had also seen this information.

Obviously, this information was very different from our current experience, which meant that Little Han had achieved success through special means.

Was this considered... exploiting a bug?

I hope this Academy Head Mei Linde won't blame Little Han too much, Bai Yu prayed silently in her heart.

“An Academy Head, huh… this is… oh my, it seems I've done something incredible ahead of schedule.”

I shook my head, my eyes slightly narrowed.

Since everything was arranged, then the script should develop like this.

I don't believe that everything would just end like this.

What ended here was just Academy Head Mei Linde's arrangement, and the secret was something that even the Academy Head might not know very well.

Although the Academy Head might have already seen through that this thing was of little use to her, so she just threw it to the Witch Academy.

But just the Meditation Method alone was enough to be called an enlightenment of wisdom.

Perhaps in the history of the Witch Academy, some seniors must have reached this step.

They did it purely relying on their own abilities and wisdom, and definitely couldn't be compared to a cheater like me, but I would offer them my highest respect.

There's just one thing… since you've done it, why didn't you write some guides and leave them behind?

Alright, actually, this isn't the time to complain about this.

The achievements are the result of one's own efforts.

No one wants others to freeload off their achievements.

If it were me, I wouldn't stand to see others reap without sowing either.

That would be irresponsible to one's own efforts.

So what if people say I'm stingy?

Could I be trapped by this kind of low-level PUA?

Impossible.

The only problem was that Yuhu, she hadn't told me about the so-called ancestral land.

It seems that she was also hiding something about this…

“Little Han, what are you going to do next?”

Bai Yu asked from the side.

“Of course, I'll continue. Since our esteemed Academy Head has arranged everything, we'll just follow the script. If I don't experience it incompletely, how would I know what this information is referring to?”

“That's true, I think so too.”

Bai Yu also nodded in agreement.

As a beneficiary of "reaping without sowing," she naturally wouldn't object to Little Han's plan.

“Whatever, let's try the effect of this so-called Primary Meditation Method first. Develop comprehension, enlighten wisdom, connect thoughts. Big Sis Bai, you should understand what this represents, right?”

“Mm.”

Bai Yu naturally understood what this represented, and also knew the origin of this mission's name.

But… this didn't seem to have much to do with the Fool's Village secret realm, right?

The Fool's Village secret realm seemed to only play the role of a revelation.

Perhaps Little Han's methods were too "advanced," so it made the role of the Fool's Village secret realm seem insignificant.

But if it was just to enlighten wisdom, many potions and elixirs could achieve the same effect.

Although they were expensive, they weren't non-existent.

But at least after thinking about it for a moment, Bai Yu understood.

Foundation, laying a solid foundation for construction.

The wisdom, comprehension, and thinking developed by elixirs or potions were all castles in the air.

Only a solid foundation could bear such wisdom.

Then the value of this so-called Meditation Method might have already exceeded her cognition.

“Little Han, if this Meditation Method really isn't a means of developing comprehension and enlightening wisdom with the help of external objects like elixirs or potions, then its value may be even more terrifying than you imagine.”

“I know.”

I nodded.

I naturally knew very well what developing wisdom could bring.

I needed this very much.

One's own things are always one's own.

External forces are ultimately external forces.

“Alright.”

Seeing my expression, Bai Yu didn't say any more.

And I also began to try the new meditation method, or rather, the primary meditation method.

The primary meditation method felt more controllable compared to the previous flawed meditation method.

The effect of the spell could be clearly felt, the refreshing feeling of my brain becoming active, and I wouldn't lose my sense of time like before.

This spell was very helpful to me now.

Since it was called the Primary Meditation Method, it would eventually be "used up."

At that time, this spellbook would not be of much use to me.

I should be glad that this spellbook was only obtained through an exchange contract, because knowing that this spell would not be used permanently, it was "lent" to us in this way.

When we finished using it all, we could "throw it away" without any pressure.

And according to my estimation, if I cultivated the Primary Meditation Method with all my strength, I could probably master it all in about a day, and it would have no effect after that.

I was a little surprised to come to this conclusion.

A day, just one day for a spellbook to become worthless, but that was the fact.

There was still the Intermediate Meditation Method waiting for me, but I didn't know how to do it.

The Academy Head who left the message in the spellbook was still being a riddle master and wouldn't tell me, so I could only slowly supplement the information I had missed before.

And the only pity now was that this thing, like the Witch Meditation Method, couldn't replace sleep.

I looked at the night sky, then at the time on my phone.

Teacher Ji Niang was right.

Witchification had indeed brought me great changes.

It was already late at night, and I only felt a slight sense of drowsiness.

“Little Han, why don't you sleep first? Didn't you used to be used to sleeping early? It's so rare for you to be up so late.”

Bai Yu pulled open the tent at this moment.

In her hand, she had picked a small flower that looked like a little bell, emitting a faint blue light, like a small night light in a bedroom at night.

“Indeed, Witchification has brought me considerable changes. I didn't believe that witches were nocturnal creatures before, but now I believe it.”

I looked at this small tent, it seemed to be just big enough for two people to lie down.

“What? Are you not sleepy at night anymore?”

Bai Yu had already crawled into the tent and patted the spot she had left for me.

“Who says? I'm very sleepy, yawn hmm.”

I subconsciously yawned and walked in.

The space inside was not large, but it didn't feel very claustrophobic.

After pulling the small door on the side, it even felt a little cozy.

Bai Yu pinned the small glowing grass to the top of the tent, a soft blue halo.

Just lying in the tent like this, with a fairly soft inner pad underneath, and Big Sis Bai had even prepared a small blanket to cover ourselves.

In the small space, there were only two people.

It seemed that just a slight movement would allow them to touch each other.

“If you're sleepy, just sleep well.”

“Then I'll sleep first, okay?”

I blinked, and the halo of the small lamp grass on top became blurry in my eyes.

“Mm.”

“Don't take advantage of me when I'm asleep, okay?”

I turned my head to look at Big Sis Bai on the side and said with a smile, but when I met Big Sis Bai's slightly flustered eyes, I changed my words, “Just kidding. When I'm asleep, you can help me rub them more. I also want to get bigger faster…”

After saying that, I quickly realized what I had said.

“Sleep, sleep, sleep!”

I pulled the blanket directly over my head.

How could I say such a thing… Was it because I had been abstinent for too long?

It hasn't been that long… just since I became a girl…

“Really? Then Big Sis Bai won't be polite, okay?”

A cunning smile appeared at the corner of Bai Yu's mouth at this moment, and one hand reached to my waist and pinched my soft flesh through my clothes.

“Eeek! Aah… you're really doing it! Don't… ah… haha, stop tickling, stop tickling haha. I'm going to die, I'm going to die…”

Suddenly, a series of intense sounds and movements came from inside the tent, and it finally stopped after I begged for mercy.

“Say, are you still going to tease Big Sis Bai?”

“This isn't teasing, okay?”

I retorted stubbornly.

“Still talking back, if it's not a joke, is it real?”

“Sleep… sleep! Let's sleep first! No more playing! I'm not playing anymore!”
