Location- Sky Blossom City, Dungeon Highway, Barren Lands, Blood Rock Cave Gate Dungeon

Having finally found the hint to unlock the third form of the calamity soul gem, I had to risk it and choose one of the two shades of blood rule pointed by the dungeon calamity seed skills in my calamity soul gem. This is worth it instead of risking it all by choosing a random shade, hoping for the best outcome.

I did not feel reluctant about discarding the shades of blood rule pointed out by the Vitlronian physique, Mutated soul, Soul pupils, and Soulpoles. Because comprehending those meanings did not guarantee that I would enhance my strength. Whereas comprehending one of the two meanings pointed out by the dungeon calamity seed gave me a 50-50 chance that I could upgrade my power to a whole new level.

So my choice was obvious to select between the two shades of blood rule that were indicated by the dungeon calamity seed. This did not mean that my work had become more accessible. Instead, I was going bonkers on which shade to choose between the two. But one thing was sure, whichever meaning I ended up choosing, both of them had a high level of affinity with me and were highly compatible with my calamity soul gem.

I tried to focus more on the two shades of blood rule to see which skill of the dungeon calamity seed reacted to the two shades. And if I were able to figure out which shade the transformation skill of the dungeon calamity seed is responding to, I could successfully choose the shade that would help unlock the third form of my transformation skill. But no matter how hard I focused, I could not discern any difference and finally had to give due to time constraints.

Now that I knew that I could no longer whittle down the two shades of blood rule, I did not waste time choosing, and along with my three-salve consciousness, I jumped to the one I felt like maybe it was it. Having chosen one of the shades of the blood rule, I started to comprehend the meaning of the blood rule represented by the shade that I chose without hesitation.

While I headed deep into the meaning of the blood rule, I had an ear out waiting to hear the grimoire notification stating that I had met the conditions to unlock the third form of transformation skill of calamity soul gem. And finally, the long-awaited report of the grimoire sounded,

[ Host has crossed the rule bifurcation point and has stepped into ??? Meaning of the blood rule.

Note: please deepen your compression of the ??? Meaning of the blood rule to see the name of the meaning you have chosen to walk. ]

The long-awaited grimoire notification had come, but it did not bring the news I was eagerly waiting for. Instead, it pointed out that my comprehension of the meaning I had selected was insufficient. And could not even know the name of the meaning I had chosen.

Seeing the notification I was waiting for did not arrive, I was not disappointed as I thought my comprehension of the meaning of the blood rule was not enough to meet unlock conditions of the third form of the calamity soul gem’s transformation skill. Therefore after reading the notification, I cleared my mind of other worries that I could not control, my slave consciousness, and I started to uncover the mysteries of the mystic in front of me.

As the comprehension of the meaning I had selected increased, I started to realize that the meaning of the blood rule I had chosen was not related to the transformation skill that I wanted to enhance. Knowing this, I was disheartened but did not stop my comprehension of the meaning of the blood rule as it was too early for me to give up. I still did not know what this meaning was named, so I had to comprehend this meaning until I knew what this meaning actually was. Then depending upon whether this rule is of any use, I would decide whether to continue the compression into this meaning or not.

My expectation of this meaning of the blood rule was not much. As long as it was handy or enhanced one of my skills, I would be satisfied with it because I did not want to abandon the blood rule until or unless I had no other option. It would be laughable if I abandoned the blood rule despite my high synchronization talent grade, Blood rock cave – the holy place of blood rule, and the additional help from the three slave consciousness.

Other than hurting my pride, the most important thing was that if I gave up here, then the clue I got for unlocking the third form of the transformation skill of my calamity soul gem would become useless. Hence I had no choice but to see this meaning the blood rule to compet.i.tion so that I could comprehend the other shade of blood rule pointed out by the dungeon calamity seed to unlock the third form of my transformation skill.

Therefore I did not give up on comprehension of the meaning of the blood rule. I diligently, along with my three slave consciousness, started to peel the layers of the blood rule meaning one by one. The further I went, the more I felt connected to the blood rule. It was as if I was becoming a part of the blood rule, or it was becoming a part of me. Either way, I was connected to it, and it was connected to me, and the connection between us grew stronger and stronger.

As the connection deepened, I finally realized which skill responded to this meaning of the blood rule. It was the parent and daughter gem skill of my calamity soul core. Parent and daughter gem skill is derived from the parent and daughter core skill of the dungeon calamity seed.

Fock! I could not help but curse, knowing the skill that pointed me to this particular shade of the blood rule.
