That night, Liu Zhenhan had many beautiful dreams.
He dreamt of himself as a groom, proudly riding a tall horse.
The next day, Liu Zhenhan was woken up by the little fox. Helen said he was laughing non-stop in his sleep last night, quite noisy.
Liu Zhenhan also discovered he had dribbled a pool of saliva onto his wolf pelt blanket.
Liu Zhenhan was motivated by his wonderful dream from the previous night, and began to tirelessly work on crafting a raft. Based on his exploration of the island so far, besides palm trees and coconut trees, there were also red willow forests. None of these trees were suitable for building a raft; the coconut tree was too tall and heavy, the palm tree too short, and the red willow tree too slender.
Liu Zhenhan decided to explore the entire island. Meanwhile, Helen began summoning the ospreys flying in the sky using the Spirit Communication War Song.
Liu Zhenhan also asked Helen how to use the Spirit Communication War Song to summon a Magical Beast as a pet. Although he was already familiar with the song, he didn't understand how to use it.
Helen told him that the Spirit Communication War Song he had learned only covered the basics, taught to the lowest-ranked Wind Whisperer in the Altar Sacrificial Ceremony. One could only learn the latter part of the War Song after sending countless Beamon souls into the embrace of the War God. This could only be granted by the Scepter Shaman in the temple upon promotion.
The Spirit Communication War Song contained many complicated syllables, some of which were even composed of Elvish words and the mysterious Dragon Language. Many Wind Whisperers spent years mastering the basics due to the long learning process, which was mainly dependent on individual potential.
Only after learning the complete Spirit Communication War Song and advancing to become a War Shaman, can one learn higher-level War Songs such as the "Berserk War Song", "Blessing War Song", "Stone Skin War Song", "Glorious War Song," and so on. Only by reaching the rank of War Shaman can one serve in the army. Most Shamans with lower talent spends their whole life as Wind Whisperers.
The unique value of a natural Soul Singer lies here. Without needing extensive learning, a natural Soul Singer can reach the level that ordinary Altar Sacrificial Ceremonial Shamans achieve only after much effort. These Soul Singers usually progress at a speed that ordinary Shamans find unimaginable. Every natural Soul Singer recorded in the Beamon epic was a hero of Shaman level.
In the Heigar battle a thousand years ago, the Bimon Kingdom's only natural Soul Singer had just been promoted to War Shaman. He already had a dragon as a magical pet. As the only Dragon Knight Shaman in Beamon's history, although he inevitably died in battle against ten human Dragon Knights, the Bimon Kingdom has passed down the story of this heroic Shaman from generation to generation in Shaman education.
This is also one of the reasons why Helen Lina has strong faith in Liu Zhenhan.
Besides soothing the departed souls, another essential task of the Spirit Communication War Song is to summon the Magical Beast given by the War God.
You express your emotions through singing. If you can make a Magical Beast understand your feelings, it might accept you and form a contract with you. This could possibly change the fate of an apparently ordinary Altar Sacrificial Shaman.
In the history of Beamon Shamanism, there were cases where a low-status Soul Singer successfully summoned a Magical Beast mightier than that of a Scepter Shaman during the casting of the Spirit Communication War Song.
The status of Altar Sacrificial Shamans in the temple largely depends on the strength of their Magical Beast. After all, the tradition of the Bimon Kingdom has always valued individual strength, which even the knowledgeable Altar Sacrificial Shamans cannot escape from.
The success of summoning a god-given Magical Beast relies heavily on the sincerity expressed in the War Song. According to the little fox, you need to express your intentions and sincerity through singing. If the Magical Beast in front understands and accepts you, willing to fight side by side with you, then it would be a great accomplishment.
Liu Zhenhan found it hard to understand.
He understood expressing emotions through singing, but using the Spirit Communication War Song to express his inner thoughts seemed a bit too complicated. He already understood the meaning of the War Song's lyrics.
The Beamon Spirit Communication War Song:
When I hold...
Your and War God Kampas's hands...
Heave...
The story of winter behind...
In the years of carrying...
The generosity of the War God...
There are countless...
Your virtues...
Floating in the mid-air are...
The half of a maple leaf...
It is the embodiment of my hot blood and courage...
Oh...
Kampas's glory...
Begins with you and me...
Liu Zhenhan felt that his interpretation of this song was somewhat vague and meaningless. It would certainly be appropriate for comforting the souls of the dead. He figured the dead couldn't understand what he was saying anyway. But using this War Song to woo a Magical Beast, Liu Zhenhan still felt a bit dubious.
