Chapter 654: 218 Third Tier [Giant Dragon Hunter]_3



But even though this scholar stands at the pinnacle of the contemporary academic world, he still used many uncertain words, like “possibly” and “perhaps.”

From this, one can see how arduous the research in the completely uncharted “Super Tier Domain” must be for the master, who has given so much.

A sense of awe naturally arises in one’s heart.

Master Merlin said earnestly, “That’s why I find these Dragon Descendant Materials you’ve brought me so important. Great Dragons possess the most complete genetic chains of superior beings; this could be the ‘key’… Of course, this is just some unverified inspiration from classic texts. I can’t be sure which research direction is the correct answer until the results are out.”

Having said this, he did not elaborate on professional matters, which were precisely what he was currently researching.

Looking at Leonard Churchill, Merlin spoke like a kind elder, “Your foundation is very solid. You have a chance to witness the pinnacle of the landscape in the future. You will indeed face this issue by then. However, I can give you a piece of advice. Starting now, you can begin to properly cultivate your ‘Intention’.”

Leonard Churchill didn’t quite understand what “Intention” referred to and directly asked, “Do you mean… the Mental Visualization Method?”

Master Merlin, not only knowledgeable in research but also a Legend in strength, immediately corrected, “It’s not just the quantity of Mental Power. A more accurate description is consciousness, or perhaps the elevation of the Soul.”

“???”

Leonard Churchill considered his Enlightenment and comprehension ability to be far above ordinary,

but listening to these domains only accessible to top-tier card masters, even he was confused.

Seeing his perplexity, Master Merlin continued to explain, “When Close Combat Card Masters speak of ‘Intention,’ they refer to Fist Intention, Sword Intention, Killing Intention, and so on. The ‘Spiritual Power’ that Spellcasters cultivate, Divine Power, Divine Hiding, Intention Realm, Will… they are all the same thing. If my guess is correct, this might be a crucial direction for breaking through to the Super Tier. Besides, even if it’s not, it’s extremely important for your own cultivation…”

“…”

Leonard Churchill finally realized why the master was willing to spend his precious time to explain so much.

It was not only to impart general knowledge but also to point out a path for his cultivation.

With this thought, Leonard Churchill respectfully said, “Thank you for your guidance, senior.”

Hearing this, Master Merlin merely shook his head slightly, unfazed.

He had simply encountered a young man whom he deemed to have promising potential and felt inclined to offer some guidance.

Over the years, he had met far too many such descendants.

Perhaps he harbored the thought that should the day come when he was no longer present, someone would carry on this spirit of exploration.

But having already spoken, he thought again and asked another question, “Since we’ve reached this topic, let me ask you a question.”

Leonard Churchill responded, “Please ask.”

Master Merlin smiled meaningfully and said, “Consciousness, to a certain extent, is a representation of the ‘Soul.’ So… it is universally acknowledged that living creatures have souls, such as humans. Then, where exactly is the Soul?”

“???”

Leonard Churchill had not expected Master Merlin to ask such a question.

In his past life, he might have said that the soul might not exist.

But in this world, he had seen with his own eyes all sorts of Vengeful Spirits, Evil Ghosts, and Undead Spirits.

These were the products of a being’s soul after its death.

So the question arises, where exactly is the Soul?

This was evidently a question that even Master Merlin had not figured out as he didn’t expect an answer and said, “I used to think it was inside the body. But I’ve dissected many humans and beings, only to discover that as long as the life form still has consciousness, even with just a head left, it possesses a complete Soul.”

With that, he left a lingering question and asked again, “So, do you think that the Soul might be inside the brain?”

“Hmm.”

Leonard Churchill also felt that if it wasn’t in the limbs or body, it was probably in the brain?

But Master Merlin immediately grinned mysteriously, “No. I can confirm it’s not.”

“Not there?”

Leonard Churchill found it incredulous upon hearing this.

It wasn’t in the body, it wasn’t in the brain, so where could it be?

But upon further contemplation, a slight twitch appeared at the corner of his eye.

The certainty in that tone made him believe that Master Merlin must have personally experimented on this himself.

No wonder he was expelled from the Card Master Association and banished to live in Sinless City…

Master Merlin, as a qualified mentor, couldn’t answer this question either, but he pointed his student in a direction, “Consciousness is not in the dimension we comprehend. But I’m not certain where it is. I speculate that when we come to understand where ‘Consciousness’ resides, we can truly grasp the ‘Super Tier’ domain. Only then can we have a ‘rudder’ capable of controlling the body with immense strength, without losing control.”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill as if suddenly understood.

The body is the “anchor” for the Soul, the Soul is the “rudder” for the body.

The deep meaning of this saying was now clear to him.

….

Through this exchange, Leonard Churchill truly realized the significance of the Old Continent’s development for top-tier fighters.

After saying so much, Master Merlin did not continue the casual conversation but focused on tinkering with his various experiments.

Leonard Churchill did not disturb him, quietly cultivating while waiting in the laboratory.

A day later, Master Merlin reached completion without disappointing anyone.

He forged a Profession Card that perfectly matched Leonard Churchill’s body measurement data.

Leonard Churchill received this Golden Professional Card whose effects exceeded expectations.
