Chapter 137 New Name
Kamo Tsukiyuki had an extremely busy yet leisurely year. Every morning when he woke up, he would go barefoot in the study and read the books he found in the library. Someone would always be sure to replenish his tea and snacks. When the time came, someone would specially bring him meals, which were all carefully prepared dishes of his favorites. Before dark, someone would gently remind him that it was time to go to bed.
Of course, whether he listens or not is his business.
As for Yue Xing's decision to confine the Kamo family to their clan territory for a year, on the one hand it was because of what he had said that the Kamo family needed to be redeveloped, and on the other hand he also needed some time to further analyze and study this ancient world of sorcery.
What’s interesting is that among these integrated worlds, except for the world of science, the extraordinary abilities in K and the world of Wen Ye’s supernatural powers are actually all naturally awakened, with a fixed upper limit from the beginning. There may be ups and downs, but those are individual changes and differences.
Although bloodlines dominate the world of sorcery, there is still a clearer path to becoming stronger.
After finishing reading some books, he would go to the family library to find other ones. After gaining something, he would go to the underground secret place that was first built by the family. There, some newly purchased research instruments were operating non-stop, and some selected members of the Kamo family would pay respectful tributes to him when he arrived, and then present the results of their work during this period.
A huge cultivation jar was located in the middle, with a familiar figure bound inside. Dense spells covered the surface of the jar and his body, and top-grade black satin spell tools locked his limbs and torso. His clothes were stripped off, and he appeared inside without dignity. Judging from his appearance, he was the real person he had captured and brought back outside the ancestral hall before.
He closed his eyes tightly, as if he had fallen asleep due to the torture of the non-stop experiments, but Kamo Tsukiyuki was still worried. Several hidden chains stretched out from the void behind him and tightly locked his throat and back.
The Kamo tribe member in charge of this research came over with excitement on his face. He looked at Kamo Yuexing as if he was looking at a rare wise leader. At the beginning, he was still a little resistant. He really couldn't accept the forbidden human experiment. But since he knew that the "person" brought back by the head of the family was a special-grade cursed spirit, he couldn't suppress the crazy desire to research.
What's the point of causing trouble for women and fetuses? The special-grade cursed spirit is the research entity that is truly closest to the origin, not to mention this particularly special one. He can even split himself into another self. Isn't this a constant source of fresh material? There is no need to worry about failure because their "resources" are so abundant!
"Lord Yue Xing, these are the data recorded during this period of time. Because they involve his soul abilities, so..." The leader lowered his head in shame. The head of the family spent a lot of time to build the main body of the research here. What was left for them was just the observation and recording of some marginal data. Even so, they still encountered problems from time to time. It was really... incompetent!
Kamo Tsukiyuki took the information and flipped through a few pages. Because he had a feeling that what he was going to do next might rely on that ability, he thought about it for a while and used his only [Silver Upgrade Card] on [Scientific Research Master] a year ago. As a result, he transformed into——
[Silver·Skill] [Scientific Research Maniac·Taboo Seeker]
"Ethics are the shackles that humans put on themselves, and morality is the cage that humans construct. They are all alternative deceptions that lock humans into the next level of civilization, shackled and trapped in an endless cycle of reincarnation."
"I have only revealed the truth of the universe, but you are crying bitterly to those dregs. Look, the stars in the universe are the brilliance I saw on my way to greatness. They have long since stepped into the cold universe and look down upon prisoners of flesh and blood like you."
On the card is the silhouette of a man with his arms outstretched. He is wearing a formal robe, and his blurred face is filled with overflowing fanaticism. He is gazing at the eternal and magnificent lines in the sky, and below him are twisted creatures wailing in pain.
Pei Zhen stared at him. In a trance, he seemed to see him turn his head away: silently saying: "My eyes are always sincere, for the equations left by the Creator in this world."
"When I am able to write down a new composition, I will usurp its supreme authority and become the new god of all living beings!"
After Pei Zhen finished looking at the upgraded card, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Why wasn't this card one of [Identity] or [Fashion]? In this case, he would have a new vest. But [Skills] were pretty good, adding some weight to his previous idea, and he became more confident in the success of his plan.
Thinking of this, he put the card back into Kamo Tsukiyuki's body. What followed was a long period of research in the newly built laboratory in Kamo's home.
As if aware of his arrival, the person in the jar opened one eye with difficulty. After he whimpered a few times, Yue Xing was kind enough to loosen the black satin sealing his mouth. The real person had swollen eyes. When he saw Kamo Tsukiyuki and the white figure appear in front of him, he couldn't help but laugh. He laughed heartbreakingly, as if he could laugh his heart out: "You brought me here just for this?"
He moved forward suddenly, and there was a faint outline under his skin, as if a limb was about to emerge. But the black silk ribbon spell tool immediately tightened, locking his body, and a series of needle-shaped spell tools nailed to his spine instantly connected with each other, making him unable to move. The cursed energy was forcibly cut off, just like a river or sea that had stopped flowing. The extreme discomfort made him cough painfully.
"What do you want from me? The structure and formation of cursed spirits. The latter has long been studied by you humans. We are derived from you, those dirty, endless negative emotions. As for the former," he turned his eyes away suddenly, his eyeballs moving rapidly in his eye sockets. The next moment, a dense number of smaller eyes formed in his two eyeballs. They piled together like the compound eyes of a fly, full of strange malice. He looked at it: "Why not use the cursed spirit beside you to study it?"
The cursed spirit in white followed quietly beside Kamo Yuexing. When there is no need to fight, it can appear in a posture that is the same size as humans. It is better to say that this is its normal state. It enlarges its body for fighting and also for deterrence.
It is pure white, with no facial features except its lips, but no one can relax when seeing it for the first time. Purity and filth are perfectly combined into one in it. It is divine. Humans are the next level of existence in front of it. This was decided at the moment of its birth.
"You want to get a name from me?" Not long after arriving at Kamo's house, one afternoon, Kamo Tsukiyuki had just finished reading a book that recorded the changes in the world of sorcery during the Heian-kyo period. In the detective agency far away in Beika City, Pei Zhen received such a message.
It was the cursed spirit that had been sitting quietly beside him.
It sat with its legs crossed, its hands on its knees, its head slightly lowered, with a kind of piety that shouldn't have appeared on it. It was so quiet that it seemed non-existent. The maid who came in to serve tea had been bending over and accidentally caught a glimpse of it. Her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably. She quickly put down the plate and retreated in extreme panic.
"That's right," Pei Zhen squatted on the ground and thought after feeding Bao Shi today's cat food: "Even if it's little, you are still a part of me. And you don't have an [ID card], so you do need a name."
Pei Zhen fell into rare distress. He always thought that he was not good at naming, so he was glad that when the [ID Card] was generated, the golden finger had already given them names one by one. This convenience allowed him to avoid this tangled link. The last time he named a kitten was the kitten he picked up next to him.
"Bao Shi" is not actually a very nice name, it just expresses his desire to educate the child well at that time. This time, he thought of the pure whiteness of the cursed spirit and said, "Let's just call him 'Cang'."
It’s not that he doesn’t know that there’s a move called “Cang” in Gojo Satoru’s technique, but it doesn’t matter, he doesn’t need to avoid it. "Cang" simply means "pale". If it is pure white, then stay pure white forever!
Thinking of this, Pei Zhen patted the kitten's head and said, "Don't worry, there are other flavors. You have worked hard all this time."
"Baozhi" barked softly a few times, stopped eating, walked over to him and rubbed against him.
The cursed spirit named "Cang" had no objection. It still sat there quietly, and seemed to tilt its head very slightly. The curve of its lips, which had always been smiling, seemed to deepen a little. It calmly and leisurely conveyed the message: "Yes, from now on, I will be called 'Cang'."
Kamo Tsukiyuki turned a page of the book, glanced at this "companion" who had been following him, and a smile also appeared on his face.
