Chapter 275: Wisdom's Enlightenment, the Transformation of the Meditation Method

Time flew by in a flash.

After having a clearer goal, the efficiency of cultivating the Advanced Meditation Method had exceeded my expectations, even by several days.

When everything came to fruition naturally, like a slow walk to the end of completion, I felt the sensation that Big Sis Bai had described.

It was a feeling of exhilaration from a clear mind, but after a moment of satisfaction, there was endless emptiness.

My mind went blank, my thoughts were gone, and a sense of nothingness subconsciously occupied my brain.

The Advanced Meditation Method had lost its practical value at this moment.

I was thinking, thinking aimlessly, rationally checking what possibilities still existed between the revelations I had obtained so far and the spellbook that was now complete.

At this moment, the rituals formed by those Fool's Dream in their laughter, and the revelations they inadvertently achieved, seemed to be unable to match the runes or even the structure of the spellbook.

It seemed that only by deriving or transforming the Meditation Method could a new realm be reached.

The previous experience of deriving Evocation spells had no reference value at this moment.

It seemed that only revelations could lead to new ideas.

“Meditation… enlightenment…”

After thinking for a long time, a reasonable derivation had appeared on the concept of the spell's effect.

Meditation to silence oneself, return to oneself, spark inspiration, and enlighten wisdom.

And in actual operation, to express such a request with runes, a true ritual formed by the wishes of the Fool's Dream.

So the revelations I had previously obtained from the Fool's Dream themselves were actually no longer revelations about the combination of the Meditation Method runes, but that they themselves were a kind of rune.

At the beginning of learning runes, I had learned that runes were the smallest divided rituals that were dismantled from various apparent rituals, so rune rituals could be combined.

At this moment, I without the slightest hesitation directly dismantled the Advanced Meditation Method I possessed.

This spellbook was useless to me, so I was naturally unceremonious.

Compared to destroying it, I was more concerned about this fleeting inspiration.

Looking at the compact arrangement of runes in the Advanced Meditation Method spellbook at this moment, this was the upper limit of the spellbook, but not the upper limit of the runes.

Complex and advanced, what if the revelations obtained were no longer about changing the structure of their composition, but about simplifying the complex and becoming a new combination of runes?

Even if I didn't recognize any of these runes, with the guidance of the revelations, it was as simple as building blocks.

After the originally obscure revelations were placed in the right place, everything seemed to become clear.

If the Fool's Dream wanted to become a true life, they needed to face the concept of life and death.

This was the reason why they were indifferent to death and new life, yet tirelessly imitated it.

It was precisely because they didn't know why that they called this behavior a ritual.

This was just the normal expression of life towards life and death.

But this was a clumsy imitation of life by the Fool's Dream, and inside it revealed their desire to become a true life.

Even though the Fool's Dream had been reincarnating until now, they had already forgotten the memory of their need to become life, but this desire had not.

It was precisely because of this that the nightmare, which was their other half as dreamscape creatures, would seek them out under constant stimulation.

If it had reached this level, they did welcome the arrival of outsiders, because in this way they could come into more contact with true life, even if it would lead to a nightmare attack.

But even if they were attacked, they would not truly die, because they had no concept of death.

They would only return to the state of secret realm creatures, and be born again in the form of a Fool's Dream under that huge rock.

They wanted to use this method to help the people who came, to provide them with revelations, even if it was just a little bit of revelation.

And as the village chief, Yuhu became the most crucial role at this moment.

She needed to record this memory in every detail and show the past efforts to those who were qualified.

This was not a mission that could be completed by one person alone.

It needed to be accumulated continuously, waiting for the last person to perfect it, or waiting for a chosen one.

But I didn't seem to be such a chosen one.

I was a cheater.

“So this is the compound rune combined under the revelation of life and death? It's truly… magnificent…”

I looked at the pair of twin, intertwined combination runes in front of me.

So many runes imprinted from the Fool's Dream had been combined into two runes, a Meditation Method composed of two runes!

No… this was no longer the Meditation Method.

Even… even I was not clear about its effect.

I only knew that this was a transformation of a spell that I had completed with my own hands.

This qualitative leap had already surpassed the quantitative accumulation of the Meditation Method to the Advanced Meditation Method.

The birth of this spell did not bring any information, which meant that even the Academy Head who had arranged all of this might not have expected this step.

Based on my blind trust in the level of a Transcendent Witch.

I could only secretly ask myself, couldn't the Academy Head do this step either?

No one gave me an answer, but I could give myself an answer.

The Academy Head should be able to.

At least the Academy Head in my heart who could manage an entire Witch Academy could.

Doing some things always requires a belief to be established in front, regardless of existence or right and wrong.

Its existence has only one value, and that is to make people burst with the power to constantly move forward.

“Little Han.”

A seemingly distant voice pulled me back to reality at this moment.

Only then did I realize that I seemed to be already in the high sky.

The power from the spellbook in front of me lifted me high into the sky.

As the spellbook fell silent and the power dissipated, I felt myself slowly descending until my feet touched the ground.

“Just now… what on earth happened?”

I looked up at Big Sis Bai.

The tent I had been in was torn apart at this moment, and the place where I had been seemed to have been destroyed by a force, forming a radial ruin.

“Little Han, you don't know what happened just now?”

At this moment, Bai Yu was also a little shaken, and at this moment, she seemed to be glad that I had returned safely.

“I don't know, I just know that I should have been… deriving a spell just now, right?”

“The spellbook in your hand just now erupted with a terrifying power that destroyed this place. Although that power didn't cause too much damage, it seemed to be just a simple energy dissipation.”

“Energy dissipation?”

Getting this answer, I quickly reacted.

Runes were rituals formed by the aggregation of some kind of energy.

And I had combined it into a new rune, so it was indeed possible that there would be a discrepancy between the energies.

I just didn't expect the commotion to be so great.

Many of the Fool's Dream who were curious but also afraid had already surrounded me.

Seeing that the matter had subsided, they tentatively came forward to see the situation.

Even the students who were still in the village also stopped what they were doing.

Such a commotion was definitely not an ordinary matter.

If this mission was directly completed by the other party, then they would be like clowns, having gained nothing and wasted so much time.

Unwillingness was born from such an imbalance.

“Little Han, you… did you succeed?”

“Not exactly successful, but there's definitely still a long way to go. It's just a new discovery.”

I ignored the gazes and scrutiny of others and only responded to Big Sis Bai's curiosity.

Actually, even I didn't know what I had done.

I had a feeling of being in a fog.

I just relied on… intuition and revelation.

Sometimes, these things seemed to be more important than simple knowledge.

The only pity was that no one would explain to me the process and principle of this.

This reminded me of asking Teacher Ji Niang to help me mod the Memory Bookshelf spellbook.

Although I was still not the main theorist, at least Teacher Ji Niang would constantly give me pointers in the middle, and after the modding was completed, she would even give me all the various materials and documents used in it, so that I could fully understand them.

“Alright, it's alright. I'm really sorry for causing such a big commotion. Everyone can go back to what they were doing.”

I half-knelt down and explained to the group of Fool's Dream in a gentle voice.

After all, there was probably a big trouble coming up, which was not suitable for the Fool's Dream to watch.

Then, they went back to their own business as if nothing had happened.

This was a good thing about the Fool's Dream, they were really easy to coax, naively cute.

But it was obvious that the others would not be as easy to dismiss as the Fool's Dream.

“Yang Yuehan, don't you have anything to say?”

I turned my head to look at the person who was speaking to me, a stranger.

I didn't know her, but the other party was also a newcomer.

“Are you talking to me? What do you expect me to say?”

I smiled and maintained my last bit of decorum as I spoke to them.

When someone called out to me, I no longer had any hope for their quality.

“The commotion was so big just now, you must have found a breakthrough in the Wisdom's Enlightenment mission. Don't you have something to say and share with us!”

“Share what? In your eyes, am I not just a self-deprecating waste who doesn't know what effort is? Are you asking me to share intelligence?”

I tilted my head and blocked Big Sis Bai, who was already furious, and then turned to look at this girl.

The other party and some other newcomers who had stood out with this leader seemed to be a little scared by Bai Yu at this moment, but when they thought that all the spellbooks here had been exchanged, they suddenly gained a little confidence.

And I found it amusing to watch their expressions change like a face-changing act.

What gave them the courage to face a senior student directly?

Big Sis Bai had indeed lost all her spellbooks, but a spellbook was not the entirety of one's strength.

Although I didn't know what kind of methods and techniques Big Sis Bai had mastered, at this moment, just the powerful physical fitness that Witchification had given Big Sis Bai was enough to beat them as easily as beating a little chick.

“You must have obtained information that we don't know. Share it, and we can all find the key to the secret realm together. Isn't that better than you doing it alone? This mission has been pending for hundreds of years, don't be too arrogant!”

“Oh… listen, so arrogant. You guys also know that the mission has been pending for hundreds of years? How long have you been here, do you have any clues? Do you know what to look for? If I tell you, can you continue to advance! Who gave you the confidence! A bunch of guys who only know how to ask for things, and I'm supposed to expect you to provide me with assistance?”

If it weren't for the fact that there were still Fool's Dream who hadn't left, I might have said something even more unpleasant.

But even at this level, they were directly silenced.

Silence meant that they at least had some self-awareness, unlike those guys who would say "if you don't tell me, how would I know," who didn't even have self-awareness.

But I was very clear that these guys were not planning to give up.

You can't underestimate the greed of an ignorant person.

It was precisely because they had no self-awareness that they didn't even know how big their appetite was.

When faced with something that could choke them to death, they would still greedily swallow it.

To argue with them again at this moment would be my own fault.

“Alright, if you still don't feel ashamed enough, you can continue to pester me here, but then you'll have to face one more person.”

At this moment, another voice sounded.

Everyone's eyes turned to the person who was speaking, and their pupils shrank.

Perhaps when they faced Yang Yuehan, they were facing the unknown, and the ignorant were fearless.

Then when they faced Tan Han, it was the most direct kind of fear, because they had been beaten by Tan Han before.

In the Witch Academy, they had been crushed by Tan Han in various ways, both in theory and in combat.

At this moment, even I was a little surprised.

I didn't expect Tan Han to assist me at this moment.

But Tan Han's name was indeed more lethal to them.

I was also thinking if I should also learn from Tan Han and make others afraid to touch me just by hearing my name.

But I really didn't know what to do.

My strength had already been shown in the exchange competition.

Or was it that… people are forgetful and only remember the people who hurt them?

“Tan Han, don't think you can still threaten us now. We've all signed the exchange contract. Without a spellbook, you're nothing either!”

“Then you can try. Only short-sighted people would think that a spellbook is the entirety of one's power.”

Tan Han unhesitatingly threatened back, and the effect was excellent.

For a moment, the atmosphere became a little tense.

Although what Tan Han said was indeed reasonable, they still had the advantage in numbers, and with more people, there were more ideas.

“I don't have much time to waste with you here. You want to know what I found, and I can tell you. But what can you do if I tell you? Everything goes back to its roots, and it's nothing more than the Meditation Method you obtained when you first came in. Has any of you calmed down and meditated? And then? Then it's naturally the professional content. Do you know what runes are? Do you know what rituals are! Have you ever received a revelation in the Fool's Village! The internal structure of the spellbook, modding the spellbook, have you ever deconstructed a spellbook? Have you ever studied Runology!”

As my series of questions pressed down on them one by one, a wave of pressure made them subconsciously take a step back.

For every word I said, they became more confused.

None of these things could be found in their current curriculum.

“You don't know anything and you dare to come and ask for things. Do you know why the Fool's Village secret realm sets a threshold of one Arcanite Gold coin? It's to prevent guys like you from coming in. I spent one Arcanite Gold coin to learn things, and you… you're here to buy a lesson.”

“You!”

Obviously, someone had taken the bait and was broken by my words.

They couldn't take the blow and were so angry that they couldn't even refute.

But it's okay, they couldn't vent their resentment with words, but they could use their bodies to vent, which means they would start a fight if they couldn't win an argument.

“Little Han, don't stop me this time. You should have more important things to do, right? Leave this to me.”

At this moment, Bai Yu stepped out from behind me and protected me.

“Eh? Mm…”

This time, I didn't refuse, but obediently stayed behind Big Sis Bai as the one being protected.

“Big Sis Bai, don't be too harsh. Before we came in, the senior who was maintaining the secret realm said that it's best not to have any conflicts.”

I reminded.

“Of course, I know my limits.”

“Yang Yuehan! You'll just stand behind a senior student! If you have the guts, let's have a fair duel! You're shameless!”

At this moment, I turned my head away and ignored her.

Shameless?

Fair duel?

How could such words come out of her mouth?

Was it fair for so many of them to gang up on me?

For people with no bottom line, you naturally need to use extraordinary means.

At this moment, I did have a lot of things to do, such as trying out the effect of this new spellbook, and… the "revelation" that this spellbook brought to me after it was formed.

This spellbook gave me the feeling that it was like the initial Meditation Method, "incomplete."

I didn't expect that I would have to repeat the previous nesting doll at this step…

I smiled and shook my head, put away the spellbook, and then my eyes met Tan Han's at this moment.

“Thank you for getting me out of a tight spot.”

“You're welcome, I… don't seem to have helped much.”

“Your attitude is enough. Looking at you, you were originally planning to leave?”

“Yes, I was originally scheduled to leave today. I had almost packed my things, but then I ran into this, so… now I don't plan to leave anymore.”

“Oh…”

“Wait…”

“I know.”

When Tan Han said "wait," I directly interrupted her.

I knew what she wanted to say, and speaking at this time was indeed a good opportunity.

This reminded me of when Teacher Ji Niang told me to learn more from Tan Han's thick skin and seize opportunities.

Just like Tan Han at this moment, when she said "wait," she had already prepared to be rejected by me.

“But you have to wait until I'm done.”

“Thank you.”

A brief conversation, without any extra nonsense.

Essentially, Tan Han was no different from these guys.

They all wanted to "reap without sowing," but the final result was different.

This was what I meant when I said that I wouldn't be stingy with sharing intelligence, but sometimes it would also depend on my mood and the other party's attitude.
