123: Chapter 123 Experimental Notes

Looking at the contents above, Su Lin was slightly taken aback.

A shock right from the start.

The very first page mentioned that sealed entity.

It seemed that his so-called "Ancestor."

knew about this matter from the very beginning, and had even come specifically for this entity.

Or rather, the entire purpose of this village's existence was for the sake of this entity.

Moreover, judging by the contents of the notes.

This Ancestor appeared to be a Dominator Level Peak powerhouse.

No wonder he was able to establish such a prosperous village in such a remote and dangerous wilderness, and guard it for so many years.

Dominator Level Peak; in the entire transcendent world, that was an existence standing at the very top of the pyramid.

However, what exactly happened here to cause the village to suddenly decline?

And why did this Ancestor suddenly disappear?

Did he successfully achieve a Breakthrough to the Immortal Level, or perhaps an even higher Realm?

With these questions in mind, Su Lin continued flipping through the pages.

The second part of the notes consisted of lengthy experimental records.

The Ancestor had built a pier and collected treasures, books, and secret arts from all over the world.

He wanted to decipher the power of that entity.

He tried various methods: runes, magic arrays, sacrifices, drugs, and even used forbidden arts.

But without exception, all failed.

"Seventy-third attempt, failed."

"One hundred and twenty-fifth attempt, failed."

"Two hundred and first attempt, still failed."

...

The further along the records went, the messier and more impatient the handwriting became.

It started as neat regular script, but later turned into wild cursive, with some places even piercing through the paper, as if venting anger.

In the end, he started using villagers and Servants for experiments.

"Used three Servants for live experiments today; all died, with miserable deaths."

"Used five villagers for live experiments today; all mutated, had to execute them personally."

...

Each and every record was shocking.

But the results were still poor, and the experiments continued to fail.

Seeing this, Su Lin understood this Ancestor even better.

He was clearly a very cruel existence who didn't treat people as human beings at all.

For the sake of power, he could sacrifice anyone.

Even the Servants who had served him for generations, even the villagers who trusted him.

In his eyes, these people were nothing more than expendable materials.

Su Lin continued flipping through.

Later in the notes, a person was mentioned.

"Met a like-minded friend today; his research into the power of gods is even crazier than mine."

"Many of his ideas even shocked me; perhaps he can really help me find a Breakthrough."

"His talent far exceeds my imagination; with him here, the research progress is more than three times faster!"

They began to research and conduct experiments together.

The Ancestor was very satisfied with him and praised him highly in the records.

But gradually, the Ancestor began to feel dissatisfied.

Because that person became increasingly crazy, and his experiments became more extreme and uncontrollable.

"I increasingly feel that something is wrong with him; I'm starting to feel uneasy. He is even crazier than I am."

"He's mad, he's completely mad. I can't keep him anymore; if I do, he will surely become a major threat."

"I threw him into the wilderness and left him to fend for himself. I didn't kill him because I remembered he had helped me."

Su Lin looked at this record, feeling some doubts in his heart.

A person who even this tyrant found crazy?

That sounds like a very dangerous fellow.

However, he didn't pay too much attention to it and continued reading.

After that, for some reason, the Ancestor's research direction seemed to change.

He no longer wanted to acquire the power of that entity; he began to want to directly summon that entity to descend into the present world.

For this purpose, he brought in many scholars and threw a large amount of treasures, secret arts, and books at them, making them research.

"They summoned that thing, but it was not Him. That thing is not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as the great entity."

"Those guys are truly trash, but it would be a pity to kill them directly. I used secret arts to modify all of them and locked them deep in the ancestral hall, letting them 'research' forever."

It seemed that the thing those scholars summoned did not meet the Ancestor's expectations.

In the end, in a fit of rage, the Ancestor used secret arts to modify all of them and locked them in the village's ancestral hall.

Flipping further, the contents of the notes became even darker.

It seemed that people from an organization came to protest against the Ancestor, saying his research touched upon taboos and demanding he stop immediately.

That person even incited the people of nearby Linyuan Town to protest together, wanting to force the Ancestor to give up his research.

As a result, the Ancestor took that person to see something.

"I originally wanted to make him retreat in the face of difficulties, but I didn't expect him to go mad on the spot."

"So these guys are nothing more than this; they can't even withstand a single glance."

The Ancestor seemed very happy and threw that guy directly into the ancestral hall, locking him up with those scholars.

Seeing this, Su Lin already felt physically uncomfortable.

This was truly an extremely evil existence, unscrupulous for the sake of power, treating human life like grass.

It didn't seem like a bad thing that such an existence had disappeared or even fallen.

Flipping further, there was a large amount of illegible text.

The handwriting looked like it had been modified by something, or covered by some kind of power.

It was all a blur, and it was impossible to see what was written.

There were even many torn-out pages, with only jagged edges remaining, and it was unknown what content had been written there.

Su Lin frowned.

What were these modified and covered contents?

Could it involve the true information about that entity?

And where were those torn-out contents?

Su Lin couldn't figure it out, but based on the current contents, he had already learned a lot of information.

That Ancestor had collected a large amount of treasures, books, and secret arts from all over the world, wanting to obtain the power of gods.

He had conducted countless experiments and killed countless people, but it seemed they all failed.

Later, for some unknown reason, he even wanted to directly summon that entity to descend.

To be honest, this guy was truly crazy.

He actually wanted to fleece a god, and even summon a god to conduct transactions.

Even though Su Lin had the System, he only planned to develop stealthily first, and would decide how to deal with that entity depending on the situation later.

After all, that was a god-level existence.

Even if it was sealed, even if it was already asleep, it wasn't something he could provoke right now.

However, even if he didn't target the god for now, just the things currently visible in the village were enough for him to make a haul.

Not only were there a large number of monsters from which he could extract materials.

The notes also clearly stated that this Ancestor had collected many treasures, books, and similar things from all over the world.

Not to mention those treasures, just those transcendent books alone would be of immense help to him.

After all, although he now had the System, a host of creations, and formidable strength.

But what he lacked most was knowledge and information.

If he could get the books and secret arts collected by the Ancestor, he could significantly improve his level of knowledge in a short period of time.

This would undoubtedly be a huge boost to his growth.

As for that sleeping entity.

That could wait for later.

For now, let's get those books and treasures first.

Even if something really went wrong later, he wouldn't lose out if he just ran away.

Thinking this, Su Lin closed the notes and looked outside the different space.

The notes wrote very clearly.

Those modified scholars, as well as the treasures and books collected by the Ancestor, were all locked in the village's ancestral hall.

And according to his observations when he entered the village, there was indeed a dilapidated ancestral hall in the center of the village.

"Let's go." Su Lin put away the notes and turned to look at Lin Weixia. "We're going to take a trip to the ancestral hall in the center of the village."
