Chapter #47: [FURTHER INVESTIGATION(1)]

Well, this was harder than I thought... It seems that those black rocks actually came from beings of similar caliber to Ancient Gods, which means that it'll be more troublesome as I continue my investigation. Furthermore, many questions still lie. Although I had discovered what appears to be the source block of those [Tear of the Corrupted], it's purpose still is unknown to me, nor is the one who created the things specifically.

Sigh

Even [Plotter's Discernment] was incapable of explaining everything to me. As soon as I tried to gain more info on the rock, I was wracked with an intense headache and my mana would falter, with my [Plotter's Discernment] automatically turning itself off. But still, I'm a little relieved that I was able to gain tidbits of information from the rock, rather than having none at all.

If I try to piece things together, the item that's created using this crystal as it's main ingredient, is a weapon that could be used against beings of similar power to Ancient Gods, possibly even higher.

"I need to gain more information, one that wouldn't fight back. Tch, looks like what Plotter said was true. You cannot directly gaze at Ancient Gods.", Even the ones that contain their essence, like this black crystal, could still pose danger to others. Luckily though, it required magical sight to activate it's effects, a fact that I had learned harshly earlier.

The true danger of gazing at Ancient Gods, or items that possess their pure essence, is that they directly affect one's soul. The Ancient Gods symbolize the highest Divinity. Although it could be argued that the Primordial is the highest, it's rather classed as an Celestial, which is a whole other level than being Divine. As Ancient Gods symbolize the highest form of being divine, it also means that their essence is the purest of all divinities. Mortals aren't meant to touch divinities, or they require immense, immense, and immense power and experience to even be placed on the lowest stage of divine ranks.

If one gazes long enough, it would be the same as the quote: "Stare at the abyss long enough, and it'll stare back at you." Although, instead of an endless darkness, your soul would be bathed in extreme power that it would burn. In physical and mental interpretation of yourself, as your soul burns, you would either become extremely insane or your brain would be reduced to black cinders.

Sigh

Anyway, it seems that I'll need to have more power to discern this thing further. I've only gotten it's basic information at hand. Even though I'm an Enlightened with the power to remove the gap when fighting Ascended ranks, it looks like I still need to rank up to analyze this thing. I gazed at the ones working at the mines below me. If I'll need more information about this thing, then they'll be the most effective ones that'll give me so.

[Plotters Discernment: Active]

Hmm... It appears that none of them is capable of giving me any sort of troubles. Even their acting leader, although stronger than others, I would still be capable of crushing him easily.

Sigh

I've been sighing a lot. Hmph, if only those stupid gods stopped messing around. Opening [Inventory], I pulled out a black sphere. This thing, is a magical video recorder. And if you guessed it, then you are right. It's time to livestream.
