My health recovery is incredibly fast.

"In this situation, the third hypothesis has become the mainstream view:"

"The power of bloodline is a gift from nature, and also a means for nature to resist the pollution of the starry sky."

"When the threat from the stars intensifies and the power of bloodline is unable to cope and function properly, nature will replace the laws of bloodline with the laws of elements."

"The basis for this conjecture is what I mentioned before: many bloodlines are related to elements, which are another manifestation of the laws of elements and are part of the will of nature."

Hmm~ That's the correct statement; it aligns with historical facts and the current situation.

Xia Zuo nodded. "I agree with that view."

He paused for a moment, then added:

"The bloodline arises from nature, not from the pollution of the stars. This is undeniable. Otherwise, the stars could easily destroy the foundation of the temple by influencing those who have awakened their bloodline, such as you and me, and the rest of you in the inner sanctum."

"Your thoughts coincide with ours. Okay, let's leave this matter at that. Let's get back to business."

Christo took out a bottle of secret medicine.

"This is a memory-sealing potion hastily prepared by the inner sanctum. After you drink it, enter into deep meditation, and the secret potion will seal away memories related to the Shamanic Society, including knowledge of spirit magic and totem magic."

Christo placed the inverted triangular bottle of the secret medicine on the table.

"You don't need to worry about not being able to access the knowledge of these two schools of thought in the future. Once the inner sanctum understands the principles of the dimensional passage between nature and the [Land of Eternal Rest], the relevant knowledge will be gradually unlocked. The current large-scale closure measures are only a last resort."

Christor snapped her fingers. "Oh, right, there's something I almost forgot to mention. You should have a book called 'An Introduction to Schools of Spells' at home, which contains information about spirits and totems. After your memories were sealed, you might be able to retrieve some memories from that book. These memories will give you a splitting headache, so it's best not to look them up."

Xia Zuo raised an eyebrow and asked, "Can a mage who hasn't studied these two schools still learn the relevant spells through 'An Introduction to Spell Schools'?"

“Oh, no.” Xia Zuo answered himself, “The prerequisite for learning the spells of these two schools is meditation. To learn meditation, you must use secret medicine.”

“Yes, that’s right,” Kristor said. “It turns out that using secret medicines to pass on spells is indeed more conducive to management.”

She stood up and said as she walked out:

"You can go back when you wake up. Don't forget to put on the universal elemental husk before drinking the secret potion. I will notify you to come and collect the spellbook of the Essence of Life once it is prepared."

"Yes, sir." Xia Zuo watched the other party leave.

He picked up the secret medicine, shook it, and released his detection spell.

The feedback was consistent with what Christo had said.

This elixir does not read or modify the user's memories; it only seals memories related to specific clues, rendering associated spells unusable.

Xia Zuo first entered a meditative state, manually replaced his elemental body, and then repeatedly reminded himself to bring up the character template after waking up. Only after confirming that he remembered it did he drink the secret medicine.

Approximately 1 hours later.

Xia Zuo woke up on the recliner.

Display character templates, display character templates...

This thought, which was repeated over and over before I began deep meditation, lingered in my mind.

Xia Zuo subconsciously brought up the character template and carefully looked at it from top to bottom.

...

Status Bar

Memory Lockdown: You have had specific memory fragments locked down. Until you break the memory lockdown, you will not know what the locked memories are, and all related abilities, talents, and special skills will be temporarily unusable.

..

[Spell Skills]

【？？？？】Unavailable due to memory lock.

【？？？？】Unavailable due to memory lock.

【？？？？】Unavailable due to memory lock.

...

The character template has several unusable spells and skills.

Xia Zuo scratched his head, unable to recall the names of these skills or which spell school they belonged to.

However, he could still recall his conversation with Christo.

Xia Zuo stared blankly at the empty bottle on the table for a while, reviewing the previous conversation.

Starry sky, pollution, bloodline, [Land of Eternal Slumber], dimensional portal, Western Continent, anti-magic field, ? ? ? ? ...

Among the many keywords, there were a few nouns that I vaguely remembered.

These unremembered words did not prevent Xia Zuo from understanding the content of the conversation.

It seems that Christo carefully crafted her wording.

Xia Zuo shrugged.

Since I can't remember, let it go.

Xia Zuo pushed open the door and went out.

...

It was late at night when I got home to Poseidon.

Xia Zuo quietly washed up and then rummaged through the drawers and cabinets in the study looking for books.

Krestor once mentioned that the book "Introduction to Schools of Spells" contained content related to sealed memories.

She added that reading this part would give readers a splitting headache.

Xia Zuo still intends to give it a try.

After all, having one's memories blocked is a very unpleasant feeling...

“Found it.” Xia Zuo dusted off the cover and sat down at his desk to look through it.

I haven't opened this book in a long time, at least three years.

Looking at the handwriting in the notes, Xia Zuo always felt a sense of déjà vu when he recalled his time on the Western Continent.

Should we go back and take a look?

Xia Zuo looked at the calendar.

There is still more than a month before the Western Continent research team departs.

The list of research team members will be released in about 5 days.

If Xia Zuo wants the Blood Element servants to take root in the Western Continent, he will have to set aside some time to study the candidates.

While lost in thought, Xia Zuo glanced at the table of contents of "An Introduction to Schools of Magic".

His gaze lingered briefly on the entries about spirits and totemism.

Immediately afterwards, a sharp, needle-like pain suddenly appeared in my brain.

"Huff...huff..."

Xia Zuo gasped for breath, forcing himself to stop recalling, and the stinging pain in his mind quickly subsided.

The memory-sealing drug is truly amazing…

It seems the sealed memories are related to spirits and totems.

"hiss.."

Xia Zuo felt another wave of pain in his head whenever he thought of those two words.

I can't even think about it...

Xia Zuo brought up the character template, and apart from the addition of a "headache" effect in the status bar, nothing had changed.

It seems even a cheat code isn't foolproof...

It cannot free Xia Zuo from the memory blockade, nor help him bypass the effects of the secret medicine to use the blocked spiritual and totem spells.

---Aside---

Chapter 91 Laws

That evening, after confirming that the Spirit Totem school had been banned, Xia Zuo contacted Deng Ke of the action team using the secret communication ring.

Two members of the team are connected to the knowledge of the Shamanic Society: one is the Guardian Leonard, who specializes in the Totem School; the other is the Scout Lanlot, who specializes in the Elven Body School.

From tonight onwards, they will no longer be able to use totem magic and spirit magic.

Leonard's wooden totem will be taken back by the temple, and in the days to come, he will rely more on group protection spells to protect his teammates.

And Lanlot... he must be the most heartbroken person.

Starting tomorrow, his spirit pig will temporarily disappear.

He would subconsciously search for traces of his pet, and, prompted by the clerk Freya, he learned that he had once owned a spirit pig named Pick.

The bitterness of the memories and the pain of being locked away will torment him for a long time.

The tragedy of the Spirit School mages could not shake the Temple's determination to seal off the Spirit School.

It must be said that the Temple is quite tough and resolute when it comes to protecting the natural world.

At present, we can only hope that the inner sanctum will soon complete its exploration of the dimensional passages between nature and the [Land of Long Rest], and then gradually unlock the sealed spells.

Xia Zuo rubbed his temples, put "An Introduction to Magic Schools" back on the bookshelf, and began his meditation for the day.

...

After the roundabout controversy, life returned to normal.

Shazo travels daily between Poseidon and Lumington, supplying the Hillenberg Group with the power of the poison alchemists.

Shortly after he returned to the group, he received two pieces of good news.

One is a patent for underwater bullets.
