Herag felt the ancestral bloodline within him seemed to be cheering and leaping with joy, growing very rapidly.
As the power of the ancestral bloodline increased, a flood of information and knowledge emerged from it.
Herag greedily absorbed this knowledge, understanding many things in an instant.
This knowledge came from the inheritance within the bloodline, eliminating the need to slowly learn and acquire it by reading books like humans.
After the bloodline power grew stronger, what followed was a rapid increase in power, agility, and constitution.
Ryan's ancestral bloodline was inherently strong, and after Herag absorbed this bloodline power, he grew at an exceptional rate.
Herag even faintly felt that he was about to break through the boundary of Level 6.
But this was not necessarily a good thing.
Herag's intuition was now very sharp, sensing that if he broke through this boundary, it would certainly lead to some bad outcomes.
After pondering for a moment and combining the knowledge surging from his bloodline, Herag quickly understood the situation.
His soul was too weak.
Herag was currently in a very distorted state, with an extremely powerful bloodline and body but a weak soul.
This state was almost at the limit of what his soul could support; further breakthroughs might result in soul annihilation, leaving just an empty shell.
At this moment, Herag realized the importance of the true spirit, understanding that only by refining the soul into a true spirit could he bear such power.
He began to consciously control the growth rate of the bloodline power, intentionally suppressing those bloodline powers that had not yet awakened.
Thanks to the knowledge and inheritance brought by the bloodline power, Herag quickly learned how to control himself.
About half a month later, Herag could already stably control the surging bloodline power within his body, sealing off those bloodline powers that could be unlocked but had yet to be unlocked.
This was a way of protecting oneself.
If he allowed these bloodline powers to merge and grow without limit, he would be facing destruction.
Herag certainly didn't want to become a specimen for others to study.
His current body had indeed reached the extreme; even if the soul were annihilated, the body would still live.
However, to only have a body is to be nothing more than a moving corpse, possibly becoming a Great Demon of the Abyss Plane.
When a new consciousness was born within, it would no longer be the current Herag.
Ryan probably knew this too, but he didn't care about these things.
For him, whether it was Herag or another entity living wasn't important; what mattered was someone needed to take that step with the Thunder God Ancestral Bloodline.
Half a month later, Herag had completely controlled the bloodline power within him, fully mastering all the bloodline power absorbed from Ryan.
A large amount of sealed ancestral bloodline power still lay hidden within him.
Herag could choose to unlock these powers and step toward a higher level at any time.
For Herag, what mattered most now was to quickly cultivate his soul to a sufficient strength, until it could manifest as a true spirit, meaning he needed to advance to a Sixth Ring Wizard.
This step wasn't difficult; he just needed to follow the process of meditation.
The Starry Sky Meditation Technique is one of the most advanced methods of meditation, enough to support a wizard's cultivation to a Sixth Ring Wizard.
Herag now no longer had a limit to his spiritual power; for him, it was merely a matter of finding ways to increase it.
Once his spiritual power was sufficient, he could mobilize his soul to merge with his spiritual power, thereby generating soul power.
This process, in the academic world of wizards on the Boundary Land, was called the spiritualization of the soul.
When the soul was completely spiritualized, it was equivalent to refining a true spirit.
The process of cultivating soul power is actually the stage of a Level 5 Wizard.
What Herag needed to do now was to elevate his own spiritual power to the point where he could cultivate soul power.
"Hoo..."
Herag opened his eyes, his dark golden pupils flashed with two substantial beams of dark golden light, and the violent winds around him rose suddenly, then stopped shortly after.
Just relying on his physical strength, he was now a genuine Level 6 Creature.
If it weren't for wanting to preserve his soul from annihilation, he could step into the realm of Level 7 Creatures at any moment.
However, by a wizard's power system, he was still just a Level 4 Wizard, with inadequate spiritual power.
Herag didn't dispel the form of Titan Power; instead, he controlled his size, rapidly reducing it to just three meters tall.
He glanced around at the broken landscape, the collapsed mountains, the redirected rivers, and countless bottomless canyons.
These were traces of the aftermath of a battle; the demons around had long since died or fled.
Those lurking in the shadows had quietly left long ago, fearing being tracked down by Herag for revenge.
In their view, Herag, having absorbed Ryan's bloodline power, had naturally become a terrifying entity, not someone they could provoke, so they quickly ran away.
After observing for a while, Herag indeed found no potential threats present.
But to be cautious, he still chose to suppress his aura and leave the area, looking for a secluded place to regroup.
Herag could now perfectly control his aura; even in the Ancestral True Form, there wouldn't be a trace of leakage.
After stealthily traveling over a thousand kilometers, Herag chose an extremely deep canyon to hide in, then entered a Small Plane.
As the Creator God of his own Plane, Herag naturally wouldn't harm his Plane, being very careful with every move.
After entering the Small Plane, he also gained a deeper understanding of these planes' fragility, knowing they couldn't house higher-level beings, or they'd risk collapsing.
While within the Small Plane, the surrounding rules flowed around him, naturally close to him.
Given his current ability to control power, he wouldn't make any mistakes, observing the rules swirling around his fingertips.
The World Tree sensed Herag's arrival and seemed very pleased, emitting some information.
This information was different from the excitement and other emotions of animals but essentially meant the same thing.
Looking at the nearly two-meter-tall World Tree in front of him, Herag thought for a moment, using his dark golden nails to cut his arm, dripping some dark golden blood for the World Tree to absorb.
After absorbing the blood, the entire World Tree shook a few times, gaining a faint, unfathomable aura.
Herag felt that this World Tree might be different from the World Mother Tree of the Elf Plane, but even he didn't know what changes would occur.
After all, he didn't have much experience; it was his first time cultivating a World Tree, so he'd have to observe it over time.
Looking around, Herag noticed the Small Plane's expansion speed was now countless times faster than before.
