Chapter 84: Return To The Present World
Seeing the illusory and intangible Lake Prayer of Melelan Ke in her hand『』, Xilutiya knew this was an extremely precious and important thing even without understanding many things in this world, probably something that could serve as a faction’s Inheritance.
Speaking of which, she had originally planned to step onto the path of Gardener with the Emerald Honey Nature, but the Inheritance she had now obtained was guiding her onto the path of Brilliant Moon.
This dilemma put her in a difficult position, but now was not the time to choose between something like Tsinghua or Peking University; what she needed to focus on now was how to leave here first and return to the normal world.
According to the revelation in the book Lake Prayer of Melelan Ke『』, if she wanted to go back, she either had to reach Third Order and learn the Moon Attribute’s Reflecting Moon Shuttle Method【】, or find an extremely rare space-time rift and return to the Continent above the Sea of Clouds through it.
Advancing to Third Order in a short time was simply impossible, so she could only find another space-time projection’s rift like that to return.
“According to the records in the book, this kind of space-time projection rift is exceptionally faint; the vast majority cannot allow people to pass through and can only reflect some anomalies from the Shadow World, bringing ghost-like strange events.” Xilutiya analyzed with her head lowered.
“Unless that life possesses the Alien Star Nature, they can easily shuttle through such faint space-time rifts without injury or impact.” Reading this far, Xilutiya finally understood why she had so easily entered the Shadow World back then.
Turns out this was a side effect of the Alien Star Nature; she was too accustomed to shuttling through space-time.
In that case, as long as she advanced again and obtained Nature Phase Order, she could rely on the Star【】 Talent to gain an Alien Star Nature of the same Rank, and thus use some tiny space-time rift to shuttle through and return to the Sea of Clouds Continent.
The Dew Prayer Method【】 and Branch Combing Method【】 she had previously learned were destroyed and dissipated when integrated into the Fate Card while facing the Weird Black Cat, and the Flower Blooming Technique【】 was similar, all destroyed.
She had no time or Resources now to relearn the Dew Prayer Method【】, so the only thing she could rely on was the Breathing Technique【】, which meant she had to first step onto the path of Blood Law Nature, use it to escape, and then consider other ways to dissipate or convert the Blood Law Nature.
After clearing her thoughts, Xilutiya stood up, looked at this Gray White World, no longer hesitated, and began to focus on Advancement.
In the Fate Plate, the only remaining Ability Card, which was also the first Ability she had learned, Breathing Technique Lv.3【】, began to operate after a long time, greedily absorbing the faint Nature Power contained in Xilutiya’s Blood, rippling in waves.
She felt her heartbeat becoming more and more pronounced, with invisible Pulse Rhythm slowly spreading.
Her Blood began to circulate faster, nourishing every cell in her body and greatly increasing its vitality, while this Nature’s power gradually conducted from the Breathing Technique【】 to the Sleeping Girl【】 at the center of the Fate Plate.
In the image, the originally blue Cornflowers began to be dyed red with Blood bit by bit, starting from the edges of the Flower Petals and slowly spreading toward the Flower Stamen.
Finally, the Grassland where the girl in the image stood was reflected in a field of bright red Cornflowers, and then the entire card regained its brilliance, causing it to Change.
Sleeping Girl【】（Nature: None）→【Girl in the Bright Red Flower Bush】（First Order·Blood Law）-
Effect Discernment Eyes Lv.3【】: Originating from special Talent and constitution, you can discern colors and some essences of things that ordinary people cannot perceive.（When you elevate the tier of the Fate Card, this Ability will also gain synchronous enhancement）-
Effect Balanced Body Lv.3【】: After adjustment by the Breathing Technique, your body has gradually adapted to the flow of Blood Law, with Power, perception, agility, and Speed all strengthened.（Influenced by Moonlight baptism, Balanced Body Lv.2→Lv.3）
So the effect of that baptism in the dream just now was enhanced here; Xilutiya roughly understood.
At this moment, she activated the Star【】 Talent Ability again, transforming the Girl in the Bright Red Flower Bush【】.
Meteors flashed in the night sky, and the bright red Cornflowers gradually receded to the edges of the card, allowing the sky full of silver Stars to appear.
Girl in the Bright Red Flower Bush【】（First Order·Blood Law）→【Girl Under the Starry Sky】（First Order·Alien Star）-
Effect Discernment Eyes Lv.3【】: Originating from special Talent and constitution, you can discern colors and some essences of things that ordinary people cannot perceive.（When you elevate the tier of the Fate Card, this Ability will also gain synchronous enhancement）-
Effect Alien Star Perception Lv.2【】: After being immersed in Alien Star Power, your observation of all things gains greater insight, allowing you to see five colors that ordinary people cannot perceive and discover unknown secrets.
Ability Card: Breathing Technique Lv.3【】
Not long ago, the Power filling her body dissipated, but compared to before Advancement, some was still retained; Xilutiya guessed she at least retained the physique of Balanced Body Lv.1【】, because the enhancement to Physical Fitness from Blood Law Nature was partially permanent, and even if the Nature dissipated, part would remain.
Trying to swing the Black Steel Short Sword in her hand, Xilutiya felt it was still manageable; now she could start searching for the way home.
With the explanatory guidance of Lake Prayer of Melelan Ke『』, she could now use Alien Star Perception Lv.2【】 to distinguish which traces were space-time rifts leading to the Sea of Clouds Continent.
And so, Xilutiya began shuttling and running through the Gray White World again.
……
After about half a day, standing under a large tree, Xilutiya spotted a familiar Aura among the branches once more.
That was it; passing through there would bring her back to the Sea of Clouds Continent.
She leaped up, sensed the Rhythm within, then closed her eyes.
Everything before her eyes began to Twist and shake just like that day, and soon after, she took a step forward and fell from the tree again.
The Grassland stained with morning Dew, the lush green trees, the azure Sky, and the familiar Mountain Forest scent at the tip of her nose filled Xilutiya with joy.
Finally, she was finally back in the normal world.
The Unease and Anxiety that had been suppressed in her heart were released at this moment, bringing her great relief.
Although these past days she hadn’t shown much panic or given up, she was still in a completely unfamiliar and unknown environment, so it was impossible not to feel any panic; it was just that Reason told her panic wouldn’t solve problems, so she deliberately avoided thinking about pessimistic things.
Now that she had finally escaped, the Unease in her heart dissipated completely, making Xilutiya want to jump up and shout loudly, but the restraint in her personality kept her from shouting; it turned into cheerful humming and light steps through the Mountain Forest.
She had finally returned; from now on, she decided never to casually wander into the Forest again.
But at this moment, her steps halted as she suddenly realized something.
Since she had suddenly appeared in some Corner of the Forest this time too, then that day…
She must have shuttled through a space-time rift for some reason and landed in this Forest.
Well, was this another piece of the puzzle? But now she had many definite clues, not like the Anxiety of the Past; with her Mother’s powerful Aster characteristic, she absolutely wouldn’t be an unknown figure, so finding her origins based on this would just be a matter of time.
Speaking of which, her life outside seemed pretty good too; recalling fragments of childhood Memory, she felt that wherever she went, a group of her family’s maids followed, which sometimes annoyed her quite a bit.
Speaking of which, since her Mother could achieve such high accomplishments relying on the boost of the Aster Talent, could she also rely on the Cornflower Talent boost to recreate the miraculous scene she saw as a child?
Her State of Mind, which had wavered between Emerald Honey and Brilliant Moon, tilted a bit more toward Emerald Honey again.
