Chapter 852: One Willing to Go Mad, One Accompanying the Madness
“This! This—this is that! That Grand Spellbook?!”
The two witches on the side naturally could not possess something like a Grand Spellbook; or rather, this moment was currently the closest they had ever been to a Grand Spellbook!
“What is the situation? Why is Little Han’s Grand Spellbook detaching from her body autonomously?”
“I’m not sure...”
Bai Yu shook her head.
At this moment, she too was somewhat unclear about what exactly was happening.
However, she could tell that the Grand Spellbook before her eyes was gradually deconstructing!
No matter what was said, she was someone who mastered True Editing technology; she naturally knew what a spellbook deconstructing looked like, and had similarly witnessed many scenes of spellbooks collapsing in her own hands.
But what she witnessed this time was... a Grand Spellbook.
“Why is it like this?”
Bai Yu stepped forward somewhat anxiously, completely disregarding the obstruction of those Knowledge Powers.
However, when she took over this Grand Spellbook, she discovered that the technology edited into this Grand Spellbook far exceeded her cognition.
After all, this Grand Spellbook was a masterpiece that Mei Linde had spent over a hundred years to complete; naturally, it was not something that Bai Yu, who had not been in contact with True Editing for long, could directly understand.
“Wait...”
After forcing herself to calm down, Bai Yu quickly discovered something was wrong.
That was, it was absolutely impossible for a Grand Spellbook to collapse and deconstruct by itself.
Even without a carrier to hold it, a spellbook would not self-collapse that quickly.
But the Grand Spellbook before her eyes was deconstructing very rapidly.
Upon closer inspection, she realized that it was actually these Knowledge Powers that were deconstructing it in an orderly manner.
“Bai Yu? What has happened?”
At this time, the other two witches also came forward and inquired somewhat anxiously.
If some problem suddenly occurred with Little Han, then their trouble would be huge!
After all, they had guaranteed to the Academy Head that they would absolutely not let an accident happen to Little Han...
“Um... how about we first press this spellbook back into Little Han’s body?”
“I feel the same way... I always feel like the state of this spellbook is a bit off...... this seems to be a Grand Spellbook, right?”
“Yes... but...”
Bai Yu responded somewhat anxiously as well, but she too did not know how to handle it.
With this suddenly happening, she didn't wish for it either, but Knowledge Power was the domain order mastered by Little Han, and it similarly represented Little Han's absolute control.
Yet it was precisely such a force that was deconstructing Little Han’s Grand Spellbook!
She knew very well how important a Grand Spellbook was to Little Han.
However, she was similarly somewhat hesitant... because Little Han would occasionally do many things that she could not understand.
This time, even she couldn't judge exactly what the situation was.
If it was Little Han... she really might be capable of deconstructing a Grand Spellbook.
Was she just to watch like this?
No... she might still have a way!
Bai Yu quickly thought of a method: it would be enough to ask Little Han directly through the Seed of Great Knowledge...
To be safe, Bai Yu still decided to first delay the deconstruction of the Grand Spellbook.
Although she could not help Little Han repair this Grand Spellbook, she could easily manage to suppress Little Han’s domain order.
After all, she was a true Transcendent Saint Stage.
If this was not Little Han’s original wish, then she would be helping Little Han stop the loss in time.
If Little Han intended to dismantle this Grand Spellbook in the first place, she wouldn't be in a rush for this brief moment.
Therefore, this was also the only thing she could currently do, and it was the choice she felt was least likely to go wrong.
“Um... should we first save this Grand Spellbook? This is a Grand Spellbook after all! Are we just going to watch it be damaged like this?”
“I am stabilizing this Grand Spellbook.”
While Bai Yu spoke, she sent the message out.
Although the message was sent, the “time difference” between reality and the dream state was very unstable; even she was unclear about how long she would have to wait before receiving a reply.
However, just as Bai Yu was hesitating in this manner, she actually received a message very quickly!
But the one replying to her was not the special communication channel between reality and the dream state, but a temporary signal opening docking permissions on the Root Network that spanned the entire Expansion Realm.
Bai Yu hesitated for a moment but still opened it to read.
“Big Sis Bai, I’ve interfaced with the Root Network of reality; it will be more convenient to contact you.”
“I am currently attempting some relatively radical ideas. I’m not quite sure what will happen in reality; perhaps some not-so-good situations will appear, but do not interfere with me too much.”
“You said my Grand Spellbook is currently deconstructing... this is also a normal phenomenon. I am re-organizing my power system. Even a Grand Spellbook cannot become my obstacle......”
Bai Yu looked at the segments of messages Little Han sent over, looking somewhat dazed.
Especially that last sentence... “Even a Grand Spellbook cannot become her obstacle!”, gave her an extremely shocking feeling.
If it were her, she absolutely would not have the confidence to say such words.
She instinctively wanted to advise against it, as she knew very well the value of a Grand Spellbook... but she stopped halfway through editing the message.
Subsequently, she deleted all those words of persuasion.
After taking a deep breath, she re-edited the message.
“Keep it up, Little Han. Your Big Sis Bai supports you!”
After checking that there was nothing wrong with this sentence, she then sent it out.
Subsequently... her movements also paused.
“Eh? Wait, Bai Yu, why have you stopped? If this continues, this Grand Spellbook is going to be ruined!”
“...This is Little Han’s decision.”
Bai Yu spoke softly to explain.
“Ah?”
Clearly, these two witches did not understand what Bai Yu meant by this sentence.
What did "this is Little Han's meaning" mean?
Did Little Han mean she didn't want this Grand Spellbook anymore?
If she didn't want it, she could give it to them!
They definitely wouldn't mind it!
“Wait, you... uh, communicated with Little Han?”
“Mhm, yes. This is the choice Little Han has made. I support her.”
“But she is damaging a Grand Spellbook! This is a Grand Spellbook!”
“I understand the value of a Grand Spellbook better than you! But don't forget... Little Han is no ordinary Lesser Witch.”
“I understand you still have many doubts.”
Bai Yu took the lead to interrupt what they were going to say, “This matter has nothing to do with you. If the Academy Head asks about the final result, I will take full responsibility. This is the choice I made to accompany Little Han in her willfulness.”
“Ah? No... Bai Yu you... you!”
“Why do you have to do this? Little Han is still just a child, a Lesser Witch...”
“But Little Han self-created the Great Tree of Knowledge.”
A single sentence from Bai Yu once again plugged the mouths of the two witches.
“Little Han has her own ideas, and she also has the ability to bear the cost of her own choices.”
“Fine, fine, truly worthy of being madmen...”
“Perhaps using 'madman' to describe Little Han is also a type of compliment?”
“The madmen I’m referring to are the two of you! One of you is willing to go mad, and the other accompanies the madness. Pity the two of us normal witches... wu wu wu...”
“Then... how about I chat with you more about what happened to us in the Expansion Realm?”
Bai Yu inquired tentatively.
“Really! Quick, quick, quick! Tell us quickly!”
As soon as they heard Bai Yu say that, the two witches changed their expressions in an instant!
Totally lacking the look they had just now when saying those two were madmen.
***
Primal Dream State.
After establishing contact with Big Sis Bai and persuading Big Sis Bai not to block my decision, I also officially began my own planning.
However, even I had not expected that Big Sis Bai would agree to this risky practice of mine so easily.
After all, even I had only made the decision after building deep psychological preparations.
But Big Sis Bai agreed just like that!
And even supported me in doing so!
It had to be said... the feeling of being trusted like this by Big Sis Bai was truly good; there was a sense of security that I could continue to rely on no matter what.
If even Big Sis Bai didn't understand me, it had to be said that this attempt might have encountered problems at the very beginning.
But now that Big Sis Bai supported me, the last sliver of hesitation in my heart also completely dissipated!
My heart was entirely filled with the impulse to do a big job!
My execution ability was about to explode.
As for the dismantling of my Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell, I had already gradually begun to feel the imbalance of my own domain order, but this imbalance did not affect the Primal Dream State.
After all, the Dream Domain within the Primal Dream State was restructured by relying on my own Self-awakened Body Cultivation and the two portions of [Transcendent Knowledge].
So what did the deconstruction of the Grand Spellbook have to do with [Transcendent Knowledge]?
It was just that the domain order of the "me" in reality became imbalanced in an instant, gaps appeared in the order of Knowledge Power, and I was even about to lose control over the Grand Spellbook.
But what I didn't know was.
Accompanying the collapse of the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell, the Void Crack within the Grand Spellbook suddenly rioted!
Unmatched tearing ability radiated the most dangerous force within the Void.
Bai Yu also reacted at the first moment.
No longer telling gossip, she directly led the other two witches away from the spot to avoid the risk.
Until the next moment, the temporary place used for housing was instantly destroyed by the rioting Void Crack!
The riot of the Void Crack immediately triggered a very terrifying aftershock, but the characteristics of the Void Crack also determined that their destructive power could not continue to spread.
Until everything gradually showed a trend of calming down, one of those two witches spoke in shock.
“Holy... crap, this is the power of a Void Crack? I suppose I’ve experienced it today?”
The two witches clearly didn't quite understand the degree of danger of that instant just now; they were just a bit shaken right now, using such words to cover their previous panic.
“Right! Little Han! How is Little Han?”
The three witches looked at the central area of the Void Crack just now; nothing was left.
For a time, they lost their heads.
Their first reaction was that they were going to be torn into eight pieces by the Academy Head!
But Bai Yu didn't have any emotional fluctuations.
Only after the aura of the Void Crack completely calmed down did Bai Yu step forward.
Those two witches hesitated for a bit and also followed.
Bai Yu reached out her hand and gave a light swipe.
As if turning the progress of time, all the buildings torn apart by the residual power of the Void Crack slowly gathered as if rewinding.
Not just the buildings, but including every blade of grass and tree in the surroundings, and...... that figure also appeared before her again.
But Bai Yu knew very well that the figure before her was ultimately just a shell; the real Little Han was currently situated within the Primal Dream State.
And she... understood every part of the construction of Little Han's body clearly.
Her purpose in staying here was to guard, to watch over Little Han until she returned again.
And the two witches on the side, seeing the miracle of everything being restored before their eyes, had their jaws drop to the floor in shock!
“This... this is the Time Sense of Body Cultivation?!”
“Mhm.”
Just as Bai Yu easily resolved the disaster occurring in reality, the "me" in the Primal Dream State also began my own movements.
At this moment, the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell had already returned to its most primordial moment, which was the posture of [Transcendent Knowledge].
I recalled my understanding of [Transcendent Knowledge] back then, and the concepts they represented.
The Great Tree of Knowledge represented “plant growth,” while the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell was... “Life.”
Using all concepts known to me to lead the Fool's Dreams toward life.
This was the explanation I gave it, and the definition I endowed it with.
Its destination perhaps from the very beginning should not have become that kind of Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell.
I looked at the [Transcendent Knowledge] blooming with Transcendent brilliance within the Primal Dream State, and then looked at the “Fool's Dream Seed” in my other hand.
And what I was to do at this moment could not be simpler.
That was to merge these two of "the same origin" into one!
“There is nothing to hesitate about anymore...”
I abruptly combined the two.
Of course, this was certainly not a crude splicing without any technical content.
Even if these two shared the "same origin," one side was the concept represented by [Transcendent Knowledge], while the other side was the meaning derived from this concept.
The relationship and balance between these two absolutely needed to be precisely controlled.
Once I completely stuffed them into my Soul Dream State, this already represented that I had taken up the destiny between these two.
My consciousness sank into the Soul Dream State.
At this moment, within my Soul Dream State, only the Great Tree of Knowledge representing the Sea of Consciousness seemed to be left.
But it didn't matter.
In my vision, on the opposite side of the Great Tree of Knowledge, a seed stirred up faint ripples within my Soul Dream State.
And this seed was precisely the “Fool's Dream Seed”!
And to make such a seed sprout, the things it needed were not the same as the memories required by the Seed of Great Knowledge.
The Fool's Dream Seed itself carried memories.
Therefore... it did not need extra nourishment; all it needed was a piece of "land" to carry it, to stretch out the memories it carried!
My consciousness gradually sank into the Fool's Dream Seed.
Using those shared memories between the Fool's Dreams and me as an anchor, I finally “activated” the “vitality” of the Fool's Dream Seed!
It began to gradually sprout tender buds, stretching out its branches bit by bit...
Accompanying the unfurling of the leaves, that was a re-performance of memories!
In the next moment, this portion of memory seemed to come alive.
A phantom jumped out from within those memories, opening its ignorant eyes and sizing me up with curiosity.
“Sage... Sis?”
“Mhm! It’s your Sage Sis. What are you doing here, little cutie?”
“I... I don't know...”
A sliver of powerlessness, like escaping a predetermined script, surfaced in the Fool's Dream's eyes, and she also seemed to be fearing the bewilderment brought to her by absolute freedom.
“Then are you willing to play with your Sage Sis? And then we'll go find more friends together.”
I reached out my hand and issued a sincere invitation.
“Mhm!”
After seeing the hand I reached out, this Fool's Dream seemed to see a backbone.
After hearing what I said, a bit of determination to do things was added to her gaze.
Play with Sage Sis... and... go find more friends!
