    Be it shedding physical body to possess others or charming others into doing your bidding, or using other creatures as manure for a breakthrough in the realm, all these meanings of blood rule, which are very fancy and desirable for others, are not worth my time.


    I can move my Cmity Soul Gem into the body of any card apprentice within the Gold rank and possess their body. This way, not only can I make their body mine, but I can make their strength, memories, and life span mine. Better yet, I can even enhance the body that I possess into a viltronian physique using the traits of the cmity soul gem. Another way to do the same is in the event of crises, I can turn my cmity daughter gem into a cmity soul gem using hive AI. That is, I could shed my current body and possess my cmity daughter core. So the Blood possession meaning of the blood rule had no use for me.


    With the help of the Cmity daughter gem, I could turn a card apprentice within the gold rank into my ve within seconds. Not only turn them into my ve, but I could give them an extraordinary Viltronian physique and a Cmity ego gem. Therefore the Blood charm or Blood envement meanings of the Blood rule also failed to impress me.


    The Dungeon cmity seed can use the creatures it enved as manure to satisfy its hunger or even make a breakthrough in its realm. Simr that function was avable to my Cmity soul gem. So I could also extract soul energy essence from my cmity daughter gems to help in recovering soul energy, stamina, health, or to make a breakthrough in my realm if necessary. Hence making the meaning of the blood rule, which uses the blood of other creatures to recover soul energy, stamina, health, or to make a breakthrough in the realm, useless for the current me.


    Even minor meanings of blood rule such as gaining memories of living or dead through their blood or blood berserker who gains temporary blood enhancement with every enemy he kills in battle… both of these meaning were useless to me because I had unlimited ess to the memories of cmity daughter gems and I had the monstrous Viltronian physique.


    In the end, any meaning of blood rule considered as attractive by other card apprentices was not something worth wasting my time trying toprehend as my cmity soul gem had better alternatives. This is the reason I was stuck at the blood rule bifurcation point after advancing to advanced blood rule mastery.


    Right now, I was trying to discern the different shades of blood rule, trying to gain a glimpse of what meaning they represented, but that yielded zero results as I could not tell which shade of blood belonged to which meaning of the blood rule. I did not want to choose a meaning with the ability which my cmity soul gem could already achieve. This would be a total waste of time and opportunity.


    This is a big deal because once I choose one meaning over other meanings, I have to see it throughpletion. And if it is a meaning that is useless to me, then I would not want to spend my time trying toprehend that meaning of blood rule topletion when I can use the same amount of time and work toprehend other rules. This meant that I would be giving up on the blood rulepletely. Therefore, I did not choose the meaning of blood rule hastily.


    Right now, I was thinking of finding a loophole to this predicament I was in. I had zero knowledge of rules, and if not for the basic mastery of blood rule I gained suddenly, I would never have been able to discern blood rule from other rules. Myck of knowledge of rules is also the reason for my current predicament. Though Anna taught me how to form an ego gem, she forgot to teach me the basics about rules and how toprehend them.


    Right now, I needed a guide to help choose the correct meaning of the blood rule for me, just like my basic mastery of the blood rule, which guided me to the blood rule. Having thought of that, I let go of all my worries and concentrated my thoughts on myself. I did this to check which shade of blood I felt most connected to or drawn to.


    I did not know any other way to make this choice, so I let my gut feeling help me choose the one which felt the correct meaning for the current me. And I was right to do so because that is when I felt the different parts of my cmity soul gem pointing me to the various shades of blood rule. Finally, I knew where to begin.


    Without hesitation, I started to check the leads I had just received. Turns out the Dungeon cmity seed, Viltronian physique, soulpole, mutated soul, soul pupils, each of these which were the part of my Cmity Soul Gem, were pointing me to a different meaning of blood rule that waspatible with them.


    From millions of shades to choose from, the numbers of meanings of blood rule to choose from decreased to seven hundred and eighty-nine. I could still sort out and cut down the number to a more manageable number. I could achieve this by gauging how strong the connection of the shades of blood rule had with the parts that directed me to them. Not all shades had the highest degree of affinity with my cmity soul gem. This helped me weed out most shades of blood rule with anything less than excellent affinity.


    In the end, I had managed to round up to twenty-five meaningspatible with the current powers I possessed. Though still, I did not know which twenty-five meanings of blood rule these twenty-five shades of blood rule individually represented. But scrutinizing the parts that pointed me to these meanings of blood rule, I could vaguely tell what these meanings could be.


    The soul pupil directed me to three shades of blood rule. The three meanings pointed out by Soul pupils should be rted to eye-type abilities.


    The soul energy maniption skill of Soulpoles led me to 13 shades of blood rule. The thirteen meanings pointed out by the soul energy maniption skill should be rted to various forms of maniption of blood rule. Possibly in the route of recovery of health, stamina, soul energy, etc., by manipting different essences of the blood.


    Viltronian physique pointed me to 5 shades of blood rule. It was evident that the Viltronian physique directed me to meanings of blood rule rted to different types of blood physique enhancement.


    Mutated soul directed me to 2 shades of blood rule. And now, this one was tricky as I did not know how the blood and soul of a person could be rted. But I remember one of the abilities of the blood rule, which allows a card apprentice to rebirth in their progeny with a high degree of bloodline purity.


    Using this meaning, a card apprentice can hide a part of their soul in their blood, creating a bloodline that can be passed down to their progeny, and in case the said card apprentice dies, they can achieve rebirth by possessing the body of their child, grandchild or great-grandchild with a high degree of bloodline purity. I guess one of the two shades pointed out by my mutated soul should be this meaning. As for the other, I had no idea, but afterparing it to the meaning earlier. I think this also has weird abilities rted to soul and resurrection in terms of blood which did not impress me.


    Lastly, the Dungeon cmity seed part of the cmity soul gem led me to two shades of blood rule. Actually, Dungeon cmity seed pointed me to like 500plus shades of blood rule, but I discarded all of them and settled on the best two. I did not have to be a genius to guess the meanings pointed out to me by dungeon cmity mostly were rted to blood envement, charm, devour, puppet, cauldron, etc.


    After discerning all the possibilities, I realized something I had not considered earlier and had two options to decide on. That is whether I should choose from the 789 shades of blood rule pointed to me by my skills or choose out of these 789 shades of blood rule. As the shades of blood rule pointed out by my skills will definitely have meanings with abilities I already have and will only act in helping me enhance the power I already possess. By choosing out of these 789 shades, I could possiblyprehend a new ability, but who is to say the unique meaning Iprehend will be handier than enhancing the capabilities I already have.
