Chapter 319 The Art of Divination

There was an e else here apart from a remarkable and mysterious array on the floor

"Not even a chair to sit on"

Alice pouted as she grumbled She sloalked before the array and bent to examine the patterns

It was a purely defensive array Once it was activated, the entire room would be on lockdown Alice didn't need to worry about any interruption from the outside while she coical e so, she could obscure everything Even Greeer be able to sense or see what happened in here

Everyone had their secrets Even if Alice had already accepted Greeive up her rights and privacy

The defensive array slowly started to activate Faint light surfaced on the walls, the ceiling, and the floor The room severed all connection to the outside world

Alice sat crossed-legged inout all of the resources and items she needed to use for the ceremony and placed them by her side With her smarts and a powerful memory, she could instantly recall the position of all the items with absolutely no errors

These items were all placed within her reach to make it convenient for her when she needed theht There were a total of seventeen or eighteen different herbs and medicines They were either used to increase Physique, enhance Spirit, or to calle item and potion had a unique application All of them could increase her chances of a successful advanceical tools that were related to the ceremony The s were situated around it

Adepts were an arcane group whose origins were full of prinorant voodoo practices Tens of thousands of years of development had passed, but sos of their ancient arts

The adepts of the past had conducted extraordinarily bloody and cruel hu tribes and bathed in their blood to obtain strange but powerful abilities

The adepts were a lot more civilized now and used all sorts of s However, the ritual was fundamentally still the saht

After all, the advance process for ed to advance would be utterly exhausted, if not grievously wounded Thus, the post-cere that needed attention as well!

Having placed everything where it was supposed to be, Alice softly re robe and revealed her body

The transparent effect had already extended to her chest

She could still sense the parts of her body below her chest She could also move her body as she wanted to However, she couldn't see those parts of her body nor touch them with her hand The skin near her chest had also become semi-translucent She could see the blood vessels, y pollution frons of the conta up

Alice had no reference for what she would beco entirely polluted by the spacestone However, ever since she received her ible fate had becoly clear

Every time she wondered about the nature of the spacestone's pollution of her body, a terrible feeling would course through her body Alice even vaguely sensed that this was the World itself rejecting her existence

Perhaps this was the ive her!

Since she was confident that this change was a nant one, there was no need to hesitate Alice had to use this advancee to her state of existence

Thus, Alice started to feast without hesitation

Saro, Pri Potion, Purple Watershroos and couldn't help but let out a burp after she finished

The powerful effects of the various ite her physical body as well as her e of life force that charged and crashed through her entire body

Her blood started to boil

Alice's face flushed bright red Drops of sweat flowed down her head She seeed because of her weak Physique Even with so y within her body had already exceeded the limits of her control by far Thus, the sudden boost in her body's fundamental attributes not only provided her with a false sense of endless power, but they also continuously daans

Alice endured the ferocious pounding upon her body and grabbed a bag full of ic circle with it She cautiously placed the crystal altar within the circle and lit up four candles on each corner of it

When she had prepared everything, Alice knelt before the altar She silently started to reach for the coic circle was to cut off the interior from the outside

The circle had no start nor end It represented pere of the circle was considered a place beyond ordinary time or space The altar within the circle had its own temporal and spatial structure

Alice had the bloodline of the Witch of Fate Her power didn't come from some deity or powerful adept Instead, it was froed with the planar laws of the World of Adepts

More frankly, the bloodline powers of the Witch of Fate came from Zithermoon 'Meisa'

Once upon a tiether they created the Northern Witches, forging a place for themselves beyond the cold and desolate land of ice and snow in the north of the continent They had cut through jungles and paved new roads Countless witches had paid with their lives to wrestle land froical creatures, mutated monsters, and corruptors They erected one adept's tower after another and eventually, the Kingdom of the Northern Witches came to be

Then, the 'Upheaval of the Adepts' happened All Great Adepts above Fourth Grade were forced to leave the plane, never to set foot on the World of Adepts again

The world consciousness of the World of Adept had suitably opened up soe for the adepts' departure Great Adepts that had reached certain heights of power could leave their s within the laws of the world

To ensure that the legacy of the Northern Witches would always exist, some witches chose to stay when the Witch Queen left with her entourage of powerful subordinates These witches ed their body and soul with the laws of the world

In doing so, the legacies of the thirteen witch branches becaer needed to worry about their legacy vanishing!
