Chapter 936: The Witch's Secret Realm About to be Transferred Out of the Academy
“The Karma River is more or less the Destiny River. The macro-control effect of Destiny on a world cannot be ignored. The development and turning points of the world, countless coincidences can always stimulate infinite possibilities in every world.”
“Uh... the Destiny River should be a branch of the Karma River, right?”
I asked weakly.
After all, I had only heard the one-sided words of that Destiny Alchemist about this matter, and I didn't know if it was correct.
“Mhm... the Karma River branch is indeed the Destiny River.”
Academy Head Mei covered up her embarrassment.
“However, the Karma River is unknowable. There is no definite evidence of its discovery, nor evidence to falsify it. So generally, the Destiny River and the Karma River are equated. After all, we are not professional researchers of these; just knowing the gist is enough.”
“Oh! Okay, okay! I understand.”
I nodded quickly.
It seemed that the Destiny River being a branch was more or less correct popular science.
“In general, the world is a special existence born on the Time River. Only from the perspective of True Time can one see its full picture.”
“It controls the Earth Vein River, linking the umbilical cord of life. It drives the branch of Karma, manipulating the script of life.”
“The consciousness born of the world is the initial consciousness of the Void, so the World Consciousness of the Main World will also synchronously affect all World Wills in the Void, and even dominate the direction of the Void World.”
“After saying so much, what does this have to do with the opportunity to locate the Umbilicus Mundi?”
I asked.
“I'm laying down some necessary common knowledge for you! Without understanding common knowledge, how can you understand the principles built upon it?”
Mei Linde said grumpily.
“Oh! Oh! Big Sis Mei, please continue!”
“After you understand the essence of the world, we can talk about how to lock the Umbilicus Mundi.”
“The Umbilicus Mundi, to put it bluntly, is the key node between the world and the Earth Vein River. The Destiny Gazing Technique gazes at Destiny, which is the deep manifestation of the Destiny River within the world, and by analyzing the manifestation, we understand the deep concepts.”
“So the Destiny Gazing Technique cannot intuitively observe the Umbilicus Mundi, right?”
I interjected and asked.
“Right!”
Mei Linde nodded with a smile, meaning I got to the point.
“Then let's come to the Destiny Gazing Technique itself.”
“The Destiny Gazing Technique itself?”
“Yes, what principle does the Destiny Gazing Technique itself borrow?”
“Uh... Spirit Vision.”
I said.
“What is Spirit Vision?”
“A talent.”
“There's nothing wrong with that, but Spirit Vision is equivalent to a person's True Vision within True Time. So the Destiny Gazing Technique is a means combining Spirit Vision to observe from the perspective of the Time River.”
“Therefore, the Destiny Gazing Technique has the potential to observe the Umbilicus Mundi because it has already combined the two levels of the Time River and the Karma River, which makes it possible to calculate the Umbilicus Mundi of the Earth Vein River.”
“Big Sis Mei! I have a question!”
I raised my hand and asked.
“What question?”
“Since the Earth Vein level cannot be observed solely from the Destiny level, then how can True Time, which is the Time River level, observe the Destiny level?”
Academy Head Mei thought for a moment after hearing my question, then said to me: “Did you confuse yourself?”
“Ah?”
“You just mentioned yourself that the Destiny River is a tributary of the Karma River, so in terms of status, the Destiny River is lower than the Time River.”
“This leads to the Destiny level being unable to directly observe the Earth Vein level, but the True Time level can observe the Destiny level. This gave birth to—the Destiny Gazing Technique. The Destiny Gazing Technique uses Destiny to make up for some deficiencies of True Time, so it has the potential to observe the Umbilicus Mundi.”
“Oh! Got it!”
“Good that you got it. So now I answer your previous question. Currently, it's merely a world anomaly on the Destiny level, without any effect. We cannot observe the Umbilicus Mundi with this.”
“Back then, reproducing the Ancient Glacial Ice race in the Main World triggered the world's recognition and allowed the racial information to be remembered again by the Earth Vein River and the world. But this method cannot be replicated a second time because the identity of the current Ancient Glacial Ice is just like ordinary humans in this world; it has already been cognized by the world.”
“So that's how it is... So actually other academies don't really care about this stunt pulled by the Witch Academy?”
“How could they not care? They don't know the existence of the Destiny Gazing Technique, but they are very wary of the means of our Witch race. So if the Ancient Glacial Ice race revives again because of this event...”
“Uh... what would happen?”
I asked curiously.
“They will again pressure us Witches by means of Transcendent intervention, and use the Umbilicus Mundi as a threat to make the Ancient Glacial Ice race disappear from the Main World again.”
“So shameless? Obviously can't win so they play rogue... Aren't they afraid of death?”
I recalled the previously inferred development situation; other Transcendent academies had no chance at all.
“Ultimately, it's just a stalemate...”
“Yes, a stalemate on the Transcendent level. Then they have another means, launching an academy war. Anyway, they won't let us have an easy time.”
“Then... the King of the Ancient Glacial Ice race is my clone. This point should be usable to make some moves, right?”
“What? Little Han is already starting to think about reducing the burden for the academy?”
Hearing my words, Mei Linde chuckled and teased.
“Uh... cough... my awareness is actually quite high.”
I quickly said with a smile.
After all, the matter of the Ancient Glacial Ice clone is deeply involved with the academy.
It ultimately needs a way to rationalize its existence.
After all, the current Ancient Glacial Ice are causing trouble for the academy, Academy Head Mei can help me settle it.
But if the Academy Head and I join forces to set up other Transcendent academies, that's cooperation, which deserves praise!
“Awareness... heh heh Little Han, you are always overly mature in some inexplicable places?”
“So Academy Head, you also want to set off an academy war, right?”
I asked directly.
After all, introducing players back then, due to various reasons, didn't provoke the reshaping of order in the Main World.
So this requires guiding another conflict to meet their expectations.
Although doing so will involve countless sacrifices, for the Transcendent level, all this is nothing.
But if you ask me what I think about this... I express neutrality.
Mercy is useless.
This world needs a bloody reshaping so that life experiences with tragic backgrounds like mine won't repeat in the Main World.
What is the difference between the corruption and deformity of the Main World and the Game World?
“You said it too bluntly, Little Han. How could it be us wanting to set off an academy war? Clearly, it's them having no way out, wanting to drag an entire world into the abyss of chaos. What does it have to do with us Witches?”
“Oh right right! We are just ending the war as quickly as possible within our capabilities, and then doing our best to rebuild the new order of the Main World!”
I immediately chimed in.

“What happened here? Explain it clearly to me first.”
At this moment, several Witch Mentors arrived in front of the Ice Throne Secret Realm.
These Witch Mentors were also invited by Xing Anlei.
At this moment, Ming Xueming and her group had been sent to the nearest infirmary.
It wasn't that the Healing Spell couldn't cure them, but that after suffering a huge impact, they all suffered mental trauma and needed to recuperate.
Don't think that the bow used by Ming Xueming had no cost.
With the help of several people with Self-generating Magic Power talent, the Magic Power she needed to guide and control far exceeded the upper limit of her Mental Power guidance.
No matter what, that was just an alchemical item.
After that arrow, she really needed a good rest.
These Witch Mentors walked to the side of the thick Ice Snow Staff inserted in the ground.
Even under the sun until now, it still emitted a chill, with no sign of melting at all.
The emanating cold air even attracted moisture in the air, blurring the transparency on the ice crystals.
Accompanying the actions of these mentors, Xing Anlei's voice also began to narrate somewhat anxiously on the side.
However, she knew nothing about what happened inside the Secret Realm.
Things happened too suddenly, so Xing Anlei could only briefly describe the situation and then apply for the mentors to seal this Secret Realm.
Looking at this thick ice staff measuring dozens of meters, if the “monster” capable of using such a huge weapon broke through the seal of the Secret Realm, or even directly destroyed the Secret Realm and tore the spatial stability, it wasn't impossible!
The Witch's Secret Realm in the Witch Academy was itself a cut space, but it was different from world fragments, so it needed a special carrier that could carry this space.
Which is the Secret Realm Core.
The Secret Realm Core was uniformly maintained and operated by the Witch's Secret Realm Club, including but not limited to basic needs like lighting and air circulation within the Secret Realm space, and many other special needs.
These conditions couldn't be perfected by just one Secret Realm.
If the demand supply could be unified, it would be more convenient.
But the Ice Throne Secret Realm was very special.
First of all, this wasn't a Secret Realm for students to train, but an experimental Secret Realm for Witches themselves.
Now that no Witch wanted it, it was also characterized as a disposable Secret Realm.
However, even so, this Secret Realm also had a strong environmental self-cycle, so this Secret Realm could be independently handed over to the club for their own arrangement.
It could be said that two clubs joined forces but eventually played this Secret Realm into this state; they were indeed capable.
Since gamblers chose profit maximization with the highest risk, they naturally had to learn to bear the possibility of having nothing in the end.
After all, if they really had to slowly develop this Secret Realm and then utilize it, developing slowly, such efficiency was unacceptable to the club no matter what.
Moreover, there was the massive investment in the early stage.
It would be better to cooperate with the opportunity of this dungeon for a big gamble.
“The stability of the Secret Realm has indeed suffered heavy damage, but there is still a long distance from the Secret Realm rupture you are worried about.”
After carefully inspecting the Secret Realm, the mentors also gave a very objective evaluation.
Although the Secret Realm looked very fragile, it definitely wasn't something a group of students below Transcendent could break with limit bursts or other trump card means.
However, after the evaluation, these Witch Mentors received a private message from the Seed of Great Knowledge.
Originally, they didn't want to bother, but after seeing who messaged them, they immediately became interested!
It was actually Academy Head Mei Linde!
After a simple exchange, they acted as if nothing had happened.
“This... Mentor, are you sure? Inside the Secret Realm at any time...”
“If you are still worried, we can help you move the Secret Realm outside the academy. In this case, even if the worst situation happens to the Secret Realm, it won't affect the academy side.”
“The academy won't hold you accountable. Moreover, you have been reporting Secret Realm anomalies very frequently. The main responsibility doesn't lie with your side.”
“Is that so? Thank you for the reminder, Mentor. As for transferring the Secret Realm... our clubs might need to discuss it. I cannot take responsibility for such a big matter alone. When we have a result, we will report back to you immediately, Mentor.”
“Mhm, then hurry up. Actually, this isn't a big deal, just a matter of convenience. You should handle the application for leaving the school and such first. After all, if the Secret Realm is outside the academy, it will be quite troublesome for you too.”
“Not troublesome, not troublesome. But thank you for the reminder, Mentor.”
Xing Anlei said quickly, then respectfully sent these mentors away.
As for the transfer of the Secret Realm Core proposed by the mentor, this definitely had to be transferred!
Although because they had reported it, they didn't need to bear the main responsibility if problems arose, ultimately this Secret Realm already belonged to the club.
If they blew it up, it would inevitably cause huge public opinion in the academy.
Even if they pushed all the blame to Tan Han and the others, or even framed that Yang Yuehan for manipulating behind the scenes, such dirty means couldn't save them.
But no matter what, this matter ultimately had to be reported.
The club suddenly experienced such a big change, Wan Shi Wu... um, the president was seriously injured... It was indeed unpleasant to hear that Ming Xueming even used the reserve temporarily code-named “Magic Bow.”
Her position as the club president was probably coming to an end...
After all, competition within the club was also very fierce; interests were truly moving.
Before reporting these, Xing Anlei deliberately went to the infirmary.
Not for anything else, just to see Ming Xueming.
“You were impulsive this time.”
Rarely, Xing Anlei spoke to this president in such a tone.
“Impulsive?”
Ming Xueming recalled that huge figure.
Even recalling it now could make her trance-like for a while.
“Isn't it? But I'm really curious what exactly you encountered. I was busy inviting mentors to deal with the Secret Realm issues and didn't have time to ask this.”
“That was... a monster capable of destroying an entire Secret Realm...”
“So what if it's a monster? The plan to use the Secret Realm this time wasn't proposed by you alone. Even in the worst case, you won't be liquidated. You know your position won't be kept this time, right?”
“So what? On the contrary, Tan Han... she released a monster with her own hands. I stopped it, but couldn't stop it. The Secret Realm ultimately can't be kept.”
