When Du Bai reviewed the attributes of all the spirits forms in the books, he could eliminate the sparrow and the phoenix, as his spirit form did not have the snow law and did not have two pairs of wings.
"The book mentions an experience that might enable me to know what my spirit form is, well, the moment of truth has come, my dear beast, lend me a part of your strength."
Du Bai took a deep breath, began to focus all his scarlet aura toward his closed eyes, and then let out a long exhale, slowly opening his eyes as he stared away.
"Air sword techniques…, Lightning Step techniques…, Water Law formations, wow that's amazing. I can read the books' titles over there as if they were right in front of me."
Du Bai pointed to the farthest corner of the library as he read the books' names and was very surprised because it would be impossible for the average person to read the titles from where he was sitting, which means that the experiment worked. He activated the unique ice hawk skill... visual acuity.
"Congratulations, the Ice Hawk's spirit form is one of the strongest beasts."
Li Chui said, but Du Bai didn't reply as he was rubbing his eyes while shouting.
*Ouch.....Ouch*
"It hurts, my eyes hurt so bad, it seems like I can't use this skill for a long time."
Du Bai stopped talking and just kept staring at Jin with half-closed eyes.
"Why is your storage ring shining with a golden light?"
Everyone stared at Jin's storage ring, but they couldn't see any light.
"My eyes hurt so bad. It looks like I started to see illusions," Du Bai said while rubbing his eyes hard.
Storage rings were known to be even capable of hiding the energy of holy weapons, and only the storage ring owner could know what was inside.
Even so, Jin took it seriously.
'Golden light, it might have something to do with the talisman, could it be...'
"What about your spirit form Jin? Did you find anything about her?"
Lian's question cut his train of thought as he shook his head in denial while Li Chui, who was browsing a book in front of her, stepped in explaining.
"We searched all the books and didn't find anything. It deserves its name, the unknown spirit form. The strangest thing is that Jin's ball is not a magical form. It is neither a shaman nor a cleric, and she can transform qi energy into mana."
The shaman spirit form and the cleric spirit form are known as magical spirit forms. Anyone who owns one of these two forms is considered a magician.
The shaman spirit form appears in the shape of a shining human being wearing an animal skull as a mask. The cleric spirit form appears in the shape of a woman wearing a long priest robe with a shining ring above her head.
Jin replied, explaining.
"Eunhwa is a warrior spirit form with magical and physical features. Mana gathering is not exclusive to clerics and shamans. Many warriors can use elementary magic, but in my case, it's… I have to check it out first before concluding."
'Jin seems to have an idea of the energy transmutation ability, but he's unsure of it.' Li Chui thought to herself before hearing Lian's comment.
"Shaman spirit form is a human with animal heads. Every time I see them, I get goosebumps. Magicians… are scary."
Lian spoke while wrapping her arms around her shaking body. The magicians who were bullying her when she was young left some hatred and disgust from their spirit forms in her heart, while Li Chui seemed annoyed by her comment, as she had a shaman spirit form, so she responded to her with sarcasm.
"There is nothing more frightening than your spirit form, which not even the spirits mirror can reveal."
Then she turned to Jin and added.
"By the way, I have never heard of a spirit form called the winged saint flower form before, also, how is it possible that you know about her spirit form and do not know anything about your own spirit form?"
All eyes were on Jin. He really did not know anything about his spirit form because it did not appear until he obtained this human body. His old body was half-human, half-Oris, so he did not have a spirit form before. Original Jin had a toxic spirit form, but when Sixth took over Jin's body, the original Jin soul got destroyed, and the Sixth's soul took over the body, so now he has a spirit form that has never appeared in the future.
As for the winged saint flower spirit form, the answer was simple, what he knew came from the Lian from the future, but he couldn't tell them, so he had to formulate it differently.
"To answer that, let me ask you first, what is the source of magic and what is the source of laws."
Li Chui answered, as the eldest, she had the most knowledge of these matters.
"The energy that exists between the border of our world and the spiritual world is known as mana. The simple definition of magic is the use of magic circles to harness mana after collecting it using the magical spirit form. as for the Elemental Law, they are a direct and simple type of magic that comes from the spirit form itself."
The spirits world is another dimension inhabited by non-physical spiritual beings. It is a world that is rich with spiritual energy and mana. All researchers have unanimously agreed on the reality of its existence.
"Your definition raises a lot of questions. For example, Oris and elves don't have spirit forms, but they can use laws, qi, and spiritual energy. They even have mages who can harness the mana, and let's not forget that even the ordinary humans have a primary mana star."
Jin was not the first to ask these questions. It is known that most magicians are researchers and science lovers. They do not stop questioning and asking questions, but all the theories they came up with did not answer these questions.
If the spirit form was the basis for collecting mana and forming laws, then what about the other races?
In a deep and loud voice, Jin adjusted his seat and deliberately for the others to hear him, said.
"The records of Altanya's creation may have the answers to these questions."
The records of Altanya's creation is a lost archaeological book that tells the entire history of Altanya.
After the loss of the original book, several copies of it appeared. Each one tells different stories, which makes knowing the true history of the fake ones impossible.
Nevertheless, the stories about the records of Altanya's creation are still the subject of interest and discussion among everyone, which made some of the people who were listening to the conversation of Jin and his friends leave what is in their hands and listen carefully to his words.
"In one version of the records, which I consider to be the closest to the original book, it is stated that Altanya is not the only world that exists in this universe, but that there are hundreds of other worlds, and the spirit world is the common denominator among all these worlds."
Then he took a deep breath and continued.
"The spirit world consists of millions of small worlds that do not exceed the size of this hall we are in. Still, and for an unknown reason only in the Altanya world, these small worlds merged with the human souls. The result was an increase in mana in their bodies and the emergence of beginner magicians."
Then he paused for a moment, looked at Lian, and said.
"It is said that the spirit forms at that time did not exist because the humans had a shapeless form and it was invisible to the naked eye, but someone managed to enhance his shapeless form by using one of the purest known energy resources to summon a spirit from the spirit world and merge it with his shapeless form, to have the first spirit form in history, the Altanya world then welcomed the first human warrior with a spirit form."
Jin's story about the first warrior with a spirit form left everyone with wide eyes. This was the first time that they had heard of a legend that talks about the origins of the spirit form. Unlike the rest of the theories, this seems very logical.
Everyone in the library left everything in their hands and gathered around Jin with eyes full of enthusiasm, like children enjoying grandmother's tales, then someone asked intently.
"What was the thing that this warrior used to enhance his shapeless form with? And what was his new spirit form?"
A smile appeared on Jin's face when he saw that the crowd became interested in their conversation, then answered calmly.
"It's something that combines an energy herb, beasts' essence, and the pure energy contained in spiritual crystals inside it."
"Is there anything in the world that has all these three things in it?" a girl from the crowd asked. She was wearing wide glasses, but she did not hear any answer, so a puzzled expression appeared on everyone's face.
Finally, the answer came from Du Bai's mouth.
"It was the legendary plant beast, a living flower whose petals matched the largest spiritual energy crystals. Its core was an essence similar to the essence of beasts… the Saint Lotus Flower Beast."
Saint Lotus Flower, although it was a plant, it was also a sixth-level demonic beast, and at the same time, it had its own consciousness. This flower has unusual pure energy, and this demonic beast is so rare that many have never even heard of it.
Du Bai's friends stared at him with wide eyes, surprised by his knowledge. The brown man, who always acted foolishly, suddenly became an intellectual.
"What… why are you looking at me like this? I also know a few things." Du Bai replied in an upset tone, knowing what they were thinking.
While the young magicians' eyes were shining with excitement as they listened to Jin and his friends, a malicious smile appeared on Jin's face with joy that things were going as he planned.
'Very well, the first stage of my plan has succeeded... Now let's start the plan's second stage.' Jin muttered to himself.
