there was no need to rush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any case, with it left here, Lis was not worried that anyone else would come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second part of Timothy’s legacy was the Black Sheepskin Scroll held in his right hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis had already experienced this Black Sheepskin Scroll before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the medium Timothy used to record his legacy of Knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This should have been something Timothy prepared in order to avoid the loss of memories after seizing another Vampire’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, this precious Extraordinary Knowledge had already become something in Lis’s pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, in Lis’s view, this was the most precious gain he had obtained from Timothy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the Knowledge Timothy had left behind, Lis finally gained a relatively comprehensive understanding of the Endless Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, much of the Knowledge Timothy left dated back several thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In all those years, many changes had taken place within the Endless Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many matters would require Lis to verify them one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last part, then, was the Scepter in Timothy’s left hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Timothy’s records, this Scepter was the concretization of the Abyssal Authority of the 106th layer of the Endless Abyss Plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding this Abyssal Authority, the legacy’s records were not detailed; they merely gave a simple reminder to preserve it properly and not to attempt to control it lightly before breaking through to Legend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And by mastering the Abyssal Authority, one could become the Abyss Lord of the 106th layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Abyssal Authority of the 106th layer, it was the black gemstone on the Scepter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, every layer’s Abyssal Authority did not exist as a physical object; it was a power granted by the Abyss Will to its Abyss Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that black gemstone on the Scepter had actually been forcibly condensed by Timothy through his own Strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through that black gemstone, it would be much easier to become an Abyss Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the black gemstone that should have been on the Scepter in Timothy’s left hand had already disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was only normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 106th layer already had an Abyss Lord at present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was what Lis found somewhat strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the Knowledge Timothy left behind, there was only one Abyss Lord for each Abyss Plane layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Abyssal Authority of the 106th layer had remained with Timothy, Dominic would not have been able to become the Abyss Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, based on the circumstances within this palace, Lis felt there were several possible explanations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Vampires had once reached this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was to say, it was highly likely that a Vampire had left from here, taking the Abyssal Authority away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this possibility was not great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from that, according to Timothy’s descriptions, it was also possible that the Abyssal Authority had been condensed by Dominic himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, under normal circumstances, each layer’s Abyssal Authority was not materialized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after gaining the recognition of the Abyss Will could one receive the bestowal of the Abyssal Authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And by materializing the Abyssal Authority, Dominic had, in a sense, caused the Abyssal Authority of the 106th layer to vanish for many years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After existing for so many years, the black gemstone representing the Abyssal Authority could very well have dissipated on its own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, Dominic might have gained the recognition of the Abyss Will and condensed the Abyssal Authority of the 106th layer himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Abyssal Authority did not exist from the very beginning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Lis’s view, Dominic probably did not have the ability to enter this palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, there was not much specific Introduction regarding this in the legacy Timothy left behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Lis, the Abyssal Authority of the 106th layer was not particularly important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he fully understood and determined the advantages and disadvantages of assuming the identity of Abyss Lord, Lis did not intend to blindly strive to become one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Timothy’s ultimate fate before his eyes also struck Lis as somewhat peculiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Timothy had retained his consciousness while he was waiting, he should not have watched his own disappearance without doing anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether by lowering the selection criteria for a vessel or by changing his method, both would have been possible options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Timothy had already resorted to any means necessary by choosing this method; as long as there was a chance to live, he should not have given up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet judging from the state of his remains, Timothy seemed to have died here without any struggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Lis, this ending felt somewhat abrupt and anticlimactic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or was there some other unexpected factor at work?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis speculated in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sea of Blood World and legacy palace Timothy had left before him both gave Lis a rather unusual feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at least for now, Lis had no clues worth pursuing in depth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis was not about to abandon this opportunity to rapidly increase his Strength merely because of these conjectures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the Power of Blood circling around Timothy’s remains, Lis also sat down cross-legged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closing his eyes, Lis began slowly absorbing this Power of Blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some time,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>within that palace, the Power of Blood surrounding Timothy’s remains had already thinned somewhat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis, too, had stood up, moving his body a little, sensing the Strength in his body that had grown much stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After absorbing this Power of Blood that originated from Timothy, Lis had now risen to Gold High Order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the Legendary Rank, Lis was now separated only by a single thin line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lis did not choose to continue absorbing Strength in pursuit of a breakthrough; instead, he stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, through Timothy’s legacy, Lis’s Strength had already increased considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This had already rendered his Strength somewhat unstable; if he rashly pushed it higher, he might indeed rise quickly, but to continue growing stronger afterward would become far more troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having gone through similar Experiences, Lis understood this very well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis would not leave such troubles for himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, only after stabilizing his own Strength and breaking through to Legend by relying on himself would Lis return to absorb the remaining Power of Blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, Lis reached out and put away the Black Sheepskin Scroll in Timothy’s right hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Much of the Knowledge recorded within was of great use to Lis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition, there were numerous Hidden matters concerning beings above the Abyssal Demigods of the Endless Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was what Lis valued most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, there might very well be more detailed intelligence regarding existences such as Demon Prince Demogorgon and Spider Queen Rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis had no intention of missing such a rare opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, after another look at the palace, Lis reached out and gripped the Scepter that had been held in Timothy’s left hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strange ripple suddenly arose, and Lis’s figure vanished from the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he opened his eyes again, Lis had already returned to the shore of that Sea of Blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because Lis now carried traces of Timothy’s residual Strength on him, the entire Sea of Blood had calmed, with no new Blood Beasts appearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lingering no further, Lis passed through the Cave in the rock wall behind him and returned to Timothy’s castle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting any time, Lis left the territory that had once belonged to Timothy and returned to the Desolate Flame Capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to this Demon City belonging to the Balrog Flame Demon, feeling the scorching air heavy with the stench of sulfur, Lis went straight to the Vivian Tavern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had many doubts regarding this recent experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the main question was why Vivian had guided him to Timothy’s ruins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Vivian Tavern truly possessed as broad a reach within the Endless Abyss and as extensive an understanding of Hidden matters as she claimed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then even without having visited that Sea of Blood and palace, she should still have known something about them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, what exactly was Vivian—or the one behind her—trying to do?\u003C\u002Fp>",1494,"2026-06-03T10:59:04.413Z","2026-06-03T10:59:12.558Z",1,"novelbin.me","d43ae10e7a724393fb23323f07e62417e13c27b4ec7c58cdcd8cc5c4e82a5c73","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1649","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1647",1658,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-cover.jpg"]
