Chapter 783: Chapter 355: Star Disc Divination_2
Gradually, these colors began to coalesce into more concrete forms:
An endless desert appeared in Ron’s "sight."
But this was no ordinary desert.
Upon closer inspection, those seemingly ordinary grains of sand were in fact tiny bone fragments.
Countless creatures’ remains had weathered into powder, shimmering with the sheen of death under the scorching sunlight.
The sky showed an unnatural orange-red hue, as if the entire world was burning.
At the center of this bone sand sea, a blurry gigantic figure was undergoing a painful transformation.
The figure had the silhouette of a reptile, but the details continuously blurred and reformed in the illusion, like a mirage distorted by high heat.
Each time the figure let out a silent roar, the surrounding bone sand would whirl into a cyclone, forming various ominous patterns in the air.
Ron could feel that pain, a resonance coming from the depths of his bloodline, as if his own body was undergoing the same metamorphosis.
The imagery of the prophecy flickered, sometimes clear, sometimes blurry.
He had to rely on his knowledge and experience to interpret its meaning.
"The combination of fire and earth... this points to an environment where elemental oppositions are most intense."
Ron analyzed internally:
"And the imagery of the bone sand sea... I remember at the Lance festival celebration, the Elemental Dance Ensemble from Quicksand Lands once performed a similar scene."
In that performance, the dancers simulated the topography of Quicksand Lands using sand:
Scattered across a vast desert were the ruins of ancient battlefields, countless creatures’ remains buried by the sand and wind, then re-exposed.
And there, fire and earth elements reached a sort of extreme balance, creating a unique, active environment.
"Franka once mentioned, in the Quicksand Lands, there is another Baojuns Seed Family... they possess a bloodline similar to but more stable than that of the Sun Flame Dragon."
The figure undergoing painful metamorphosis in the prophecy was likely himself.
Both the degree of pain of the transformation and the bone sand environment depicted in the prophecy suggested this would be an extraordinarily dangerous bloodline evolution.
"Timing..." Ron continued interpreting other details from the prophecy:
"The color of the sky, the direction of the sand’s flow... all these point to the special astral configuration of the third quarter, a time when fire and earth elements reach peak opposition during the Apocalypse season."
He recalled what Master Yuni lectured about in Elemental Theory class:
When the conflict of opposing elements reaches its peak, unexpected fusion effects often occur.
Pain and danger are inevitable, but the rewards will be immense.
"About half a year remains until the Apocalypse season, enough time for detailed preparation."
Ron recorded the key information internally:
"A safety plan needs to be devised, emergency potions prepared, and... contact the masters in Quicksand Lands."
Hayek and Yuni, who hold positions at the Sand Sea School, could provide him with detailed local information and necessary support.
The echo of the first prophecy had yet to dissipate when the second vision began to appear at the location of Gemini Star Domain.
This time the scene was more twisted and nauseating.
Countless vein-like threads were frantically entangling in the void, each emitting different rays of light, representing the bloodline essence of various creatures.
These vein threads intertwined, devoured, fused, sending out heart-palpitating pulsations.
At the center of this tangled bloodline mass, a vaguely shaped head outline was slowly forming.
But the construction process of this head was extremely bloody.
The eye sockets were pieced together from shattered bone fragments, filled with pupils of various colors inside;
The nasal section was composed of sharp keratin;
And the mouth was an appalling fissure formed by countless tiny teeth arranged.
Most striking was the pair of curved horns atop the head, emitting an eerie purple light.
Whenever the light flickered, the surrounding space would undergo slight distortion, blurring the boundaries of reality.
"The prophecy of the second Chimera head construction..."
While enduring the spiritual impact brought by the prophecy, Ron struggled to analyze its meaning:
"The Gemini Star Domain represents the contradictory unity of division and fusion."
The bloodline fusion shown in the prophecy was more complex and dangerous than he had imagined.
Among those entwined vein threads, he could discern some familiar characteristics:
The dark sheen of Franka’s hidden dragon bloodline;
The chaos fluctuations unique to Abyssal Creatures;
And some exotic bloodlines he had never seen before but inexplicably felt familiar...
"The source of chaos requires powerful beings at Apostle level..."
Combining his knowledge of Bloodline Studies for analysis:
"Perhaps through the Stand-In Puppet’s connection with Nari, a blood sample of such a level can be obtained."
The auxiliary bloodline characteristics in the prophecy also gradually became clear:
The sensory tentacles of the Desert Hunter, the adaptive glands of the ecological mantis worm, and some aberrant tissues peculiar to Abyss Fourth Layer.
These materials inherently carried strong toxicity and pollution, the fusion process would undoubtedly be extremely painful.
But the final part of the prophecy indicated that the successfully constructed second head would possess foresight for danger, chaos resistance, and powerful spiritual attack capability.
The purple light emitted by those horns suggested some frightening power capable of distorting reality.
"The cost is immense, but the gains are more enticing."
Ron coolly weighed the pros and cons: "A second head with the ability to foresee danger would greatly enhance my survival capability and decision accuracy."
The emergence of the last prophecy suddenly dropped the temperature of the entire divination room.
