Chapter 44: The Yearning for Freedom

"Is there a reason for this?" Lacey is also a little curious about the ocean sequence.

"It's going to have to start with a long time." Ricky swings as she recounts the account of her home.

"Our ancestors were farmers on the shores of Lake Kempe, and in their early years, they grew some food or fished to make a living."

"Hundreds of years ago, there was a great drought in this area, and the lakes dried up. Our ancestors caught fish and mussels in order to live in the silt of the lake. Then I stumbled upon a heritage gem. ”

"This gem records the advanced route from Ocean Sequence 1 - River Fisherman to Ocean Sequence 5 - Ship of the Rising Tide, including the cultivation method and the resources required, and in this way, the House of Agetiren arose."

"But starting from Sequence 4, the advancement of the Transcendent often requires some rare items or conditions to advance, and the promotion of Ocean Sequence 5 - Ship of the Falling Tide requires the skull of the Blue Sinking Whale. But this strange whale lives in the deep sea and rarely shows up. ”

"Despite the constant search and collection, there have only been two episodes of Ocean Sequence 5 in our family's history, and it was the luck of that generation that we got the skull of the Blue Whale."

"So, are these rare resources the main factor limiting promotion?"

"Well, at least before Sequence 7, it mainly depends on the three items of talent, mentor, and resource. From the beginning of Sequence 7, I pay more attention to personal talent and strength, and Sequence 9 I don't know, but I heard that it is a unique job agency in the world. ”

These Loren Hills mentioned by Rikiel have also been known in Trinatha's records, but they are not deeply touched, because the extraordinary knowledge education of the Mercury Dynasty is extremely popular, and the resources required for promotion are also very abundant, as long as you are talented enough, you can be unimpeded, cultivate quickly, and go all the way up.

After listening to Ricky's description, she understood why there are so few transcendents in the world today, one is the lack of relevant knowledge and education, and the other is the lack of resources.

As for the two transcendent sequences she cultivated, the natural sequence was deduced by the system, and the follow-up resource requirements were very small, and the fruit of the amber red leaf maple was completely sufficient. The Demon Sequence is even more bizarre, and it doesn't even require any other resources, and it only takes time to accumulate to break through the limit of promotion.

If the cultivation of ordinary people is like starting with a blank piece of paper, with the construction of the transcendent core later, the strength of the paper is not enough, so they will find wood as the skeleton support, and then when they are promoted to the higher ranks, they will find steel to support them, so as to make up for the lack of innate strength.

But the influence of Loren Hill's own talent is like the strength of a diamond at the beginning, the hardness and sharpness have reached the peak, and naturally there is no need for other resources to make up for his own shortcomings.

The crimson transcendent core in the sea of consciousness of Lorain Hill is absorbing the Mana around her all the time, and then transforming it into the magic power of the demon sequence, and then these magic powers are further purified and condensed into tiny red particles.

These particles are constantly transformed and generated by the transcendent core like an hourglass, and then slowly precipitate, and when this hourglass is full, it means that Lorain Hill can advance to Demon Sequence 4 - Song of the Rose. This process will take about half a year, but unfortunately she fell into a complete sleep before, and the transcendent core also stopped silently, otherwise she would have been able to advance very early.

"Lacey, I'm actually a little envious of you." Ricky slowly stopped the swing and finally sat down on the plank of the swing, looking sideways at Lacey.

"I'm going to marry next year to Pinell in Hopeland."

Loren Hill was a little surprised, is she going to get married as an adult? But on second thought, maybe it's normal in this world.

She looked up at Ricky, "Do you like him?" ”

"I've only met him once, he's a little tall, he doesn't like to talk much, I can't say I like him, I can't say I hate him. The second brother is more familiar with him, he is a member of the Bailan Cross Sword, and he is also the most optimistic apprentice of Master Helang. ”

The White Blue Cross Sword is a transcendent faction in the territory of Verga, mainly practicing the war sequence, and the highest advanced route it has mastered is the war sequence 7 - The Sword of the White Orchid, which was founded by the hero White Flower Saintess more than a thousand years ago, Durlan.

Transcendent factions are different from family lineage, they don't particularly value blood, but they value the relationship between master and apprentice and the alignment of ideas, you are talented enough to pass their faction's assessment, and swear to abide by their traditions. You will be able to learn the extraordinary knowledge of this faction.

The advantage is that due to the wide range of disciples and the large number of members, the faction can always maintain the existence of sequence 6 or more in each generation, and because the advanced route of the cultivation sequence is the same, you can exchange experiences with other members without going down the road and causing big problems.

But the downside is that factions tend to only focus on one or two advanced routes, and not everyone is suitable for this route, and if it is a genius who pursues a higher goal, it will be more disadvantageous to join the faction, unless he happens to be talented in this route.

Also, because of the relationship between the oath and tradition, faction members generally can't change to other sequences, otherwise it will be seen as a betrayal.

Somewhat similar to the sects in martial arts, but the factions are more liberal and will not all live together, they will only meet and communicate at certain times, and the members also have their own lives.

"Master Helang liked this disciple very much, and took out a piece of Blue Whale Skull that he obtained when he was young as a dowry, and his father inspected his character and thought it was not bad, so he agreed."

"And what do you think, Ricky." Lorain Hill sensed from the words of the young girl beside her that she didn't seem to want to marry.

"Well, it's not that I'm disgusted, I'm going to get married in the future anyway. It's just that there are many things that I haven't had time to do, so I get married, give birth to someone else's children in the future, take care of my husband's family at home every day, and then become an old woman, this kind of life sounds terrifying. Ricky pressed her two index fingers to her cheeks and squeezed a bitter gourd face against Loren Hill.

"Giggles... No, the Yagtirin family is considered rich no matter what, and it is not your turn to do housework or anything like that. Lorain Hill replied with a smile.

"That being said, but bondage is inevitable." Ricky began to swing again.

"I want to experience what it's like to fly, I want to go to school in Emenas, I want to see what geniuses around the world are like, I want to be free to choose the transcendent sequences I like, I want to be a Sequence 7 and get supreme freedom!"

Ricky sat on the swing and spoke out loud the longing in her heart, venting the depression in her heart for a long time.

Lorain Hill looked at this girl who longed for freedom, and some memories of time slowly appeared in his mind, and in that memory that seemed to be a lifetime away, there was once a figure who uttered the same cry.
