"Compliments, Great Mother of Reproduction…

"You came on your own in the chaos for the Evil Demon Ancestor. You are the asylum provider of the Dark Night, the reproducer of the land…

"You gave birth to the Evil Demon King, Desire…

"You are the eternal believer of the Darkness, the protector of the Everlasting Empire…"

…

On the second level of the library, Fang Yuan was holding onto a book that was made out of pages of goat-skin, and was currently reading a poem complimenting the Mother of Reproduction.

This goat-skinned book looked very ancient, and the words on it had a brownish-yellow color like that of dried blood. It even smelled like fresh blood when touched.

"'R'lyeh Textbook', seized from Kun Shi Sect…"

After removing the book from the wooden shelf, there was a small paper slip that had the book's source written on it.

"Kun Shi Sect? It seems like an organization that believed in Evil Demons and was filled with messed up humans and the Night Family Clan. Their god is the most powerful Evil Demon King—Desire!"

Fang Yuan flipped through the pages, but unfortunately, the book stopped halfway as if someone had intentionally torn the rest of it.

"That's right… This textbook is only for Demon Hunters to familiarize with the evil sects and forms. As for the information on how to proceed further to ceremonies, ingratiate Evil Demons, and how to achieve power by using objects, they would only entice people to join their ranks if they were put out there. The pages are either destroyed or secretly kept on the third level."

He lifted his head slightly and saw a ladder.

It was very easy to climb up the ladder, however, there were several demon statues and Demon Hunters protecting the second level. The protection for the third level would definitely be stronger than this.

Fang Yuan stole a glance, his eyes shimmering with a golden glow before promptly stopping regrettably.

"The system of the Night Family Clan originated from the Mother of Reproduction. Evil Demons are at the top, followed by Voodoo Corpses, Sons of Plague, and others that are high ranking descendants. Vampires, Werewolves, Corpse-eating ghosts, and many other clans with many breeds are next, followed by the mixed-bloods, cross-breeds and Mutated, and lastly the Masters and degenerated humankind."

Fang Yuan sorted out the ranking among the Night Family Clan. It was based on the purity of their blood—the closer one was to the original ancestor, the larger one's power was.

Of course, a sudden transformation couldn't be excluded, but it was a special case.

"Talking about the research of blood, the path of a Dream Master isn't too bad either!"

Fang Yuan touched the space between his brows. He also accomplished a certain achievement in this aspect. He had completely cultivated the blood essence of the Witches; even being able to transform things like the branding that was engraved onto a True Spiritual. Furthermore, as long as the True Spiritual was present, he would still be able to use the power in his blood even if he was eliminated.

At this step, he had already raised his blood to a higher level and didn't need to restrain and adhere to the subject's blood.

"If I split them into high-class, middle-class, and low-class, the Vampire clans would belong to somewhere between the low and middle-class. The highly skilled ones definitely have middle-class blood, and the one that I met has a thin bloodline and belongs to the low-class. As for the Voodoo Corpses, it should have high-class blood… As for those with supreme-blood, those are no doubt the Evil Demons!"

Fang Yuan shook his head. "However… as soon as the real Evil Demon appears, it would be an S-grade mission. Being the Demon Hunter that I am now, I won't even have the qualifications to observe from the sidelines."

After the Mother of Reproduction vanished, Evil Demons had become the top of the Night Family Clan.

However, their activities were very secretive, and they barely show themselves in person—even their names were taboo!

If their true names and nicknames were known, it was completely possible for Evil Demons to have a Doppelgänger and cause the original to appear and grant a certain power. Even life forms could change.

Of course, Demon Hunters loved to call this process "Degenerate"!

"Currently, a high-class Voodoo Corpse requires the Demon Hunter branch to be on one's guard. A Demon Hunter's power, hehe…"

Fang Yuan shook his head.

Although the missions Demon Hunters received were separated into grades, it was very impractical.

For example, the Becky from before was also an official Demon Hunter with an E-grade. However, he died instantly after meeting a Vampire.

"Generally, D/E-grade Demon Hunters are similar to low-class blood Night Family Clan members, C-grade Demon Hunters are similar to middle-class blood, while the B and A-grade Demon Hunters are a match for the high-class blood. As for the S-grade Demon Hunters, they would need to hunt for the Evil Demons…

"Of course, being in the same level doesn't mean that their fighting powers are the same!" Fang Yuan made a face. "After all, Demon Hunters like to surround their prey. They would at least need three to five people within the same grade to be able to defeat a Night Family Clan member. Of course… some gifted individuals are exceptions to this rule."

This means, that as humans, Demon Hunters have the advantage of producing more hunters, so they were able to have multiple people attacking.

As for the Night Family Clan, their reproduction skills had dipped to its lowest after the Mother of Reproduction. It didn't matter if it was the power granted by Evil Demons or the initial support that the Blood Clans had, their ability to reproduce was far from the rate of producing new Demon Hunters.

Otherwise, the Dark Empire wouldn't have been destroyed then.

"It's said that… this 'R'lyeh's Textbook' is a copy of the 'Dead Sea Ancient Scroll.' Not only are all of the true names of the Evil Demons recorded in the real 'Dead Sea Ancient Scroll,' but the ceremony on how to communicate with the Mother of Reproduction is also written down… It's a pity that it's only a legend. Neither the Demon Hunters nor the Night Family Clan been able to receive any additional accurate news."

However, Fang Yuan began to get interested in the last paragraph of "R'lyeh's Textbook."

He had a deep impression of the Mother of Reproduction.

It was able to give birth to the existence of an entire clan! Judging by its level, he's afraid that the Sages were quite far off from it.

Nonetheless, its nature might be that of original energy.

"It's a pity… Let's not talk about the Mother of Reproduction, even the whereabouts of the Evil Demons is very secretive… It's like the Evil Demon King, the Master of Desire that was in the legends. I've never heard of any Evil God believers that are able to communicate with them through sacrifices…"

The Mother of Reproduction was only the origin of the Heirs of Darkness, the Master of Desire was the real one with the unsurpassable power!

"Every time the Evil Demon appears, it would bring famine, plague, and the chaos of war! Even the S-grade Demon Hunters might not be able to actually kill it, and the Demon Hunter Union has to count on the three Sacred Weapons it has under its control!"

This secret information was unknown to the Hulk from before as it was seen in the reports on the second level.

Legends said that the first Demon Hunter suddenly appeared in the Empire that the Heirs of Darkness controlled and brought hope and light to the human race.

Since then, Demon Hunters suddenly appeared and toppled the violent rule of the Heirs of Darkness, and through the power of their Sacred Weapons, they were able to vanquish evil and finally made the human race this world's dominant race.

"Such a pity… there's no information about two of the three Sacred Weapons. The only one that can be confirmed is the Sacred Cup!"

"The document exclusively recorded… that the first Demon Hunter invited the warriors among the human race to taste the Sacred Water in the Sacred Cup. Then, he was able to produce more and more Demon Hunters. The so-called Sacred Cup is actually the creator of the Sacred Water!"

Fang Yuan's finger moved along the words, a fire burning in his eyes. "Furthermore, there were also imitations of the Sacred Cup divided amongst the Demon Hunters, and hence, they were able to provide Sacred Water. However, the difference is immense… Thus, there's cultivation in the headquarters. In addition, the headquarter of the Demon Hunter Union holds the most power to ensure that there won't be any accidents."

The person in charge of the three, real Sacred Weapons were all heads of the Demon Hunter Union who rarely revealed themselves in front of others.

As for the power they held, it was said that they could shock the Evil Demons, and even destroy and kill them!

"Sacred Weapons… and imitation Sacred Weapons—maybe I can get two of them to observe and perform my research on…"

Fang Yuan set aside his determination and promptly opened another book to read.

"'Fundamentals of Pharmaceutics'?"

He looked at the cover and his eyes lit up. "No wonder it's on the second level of the library, there's no way that this information and documents would be sold outside!"

After flipping over the cover, a hint of the smell of ink wafted out into the air. It was also mixed with the fragrance of some herbs, making people jerk awake.

"This book is only about the fundamental techniques of pharmaceutics. Please carefully learn about them. If there are any difficulties, ask your tutor!

"This book requires the prerequisite subjects 'Identifying Herbs,' 'Illustrations of the Night Family Clan,' 'Foundation of Anthropotomy'… if you have yet to finish these studies, then please finish them before reading this!"

…

On the front page was a list of warnings written in jade-green words.

"I have no tutor to ask, but as for the three books, coincidentally, I've read them!" Fang Yuan laughed. Based on his current comprehension abilities and strong soul, the speed he could learn was naturally shockingly fast.

He didn't care about the others and continued reading.

"Pharmaceutics… based on the world's resources as the foundation. Accompanying the strange power of the Night Family Clan, it forms a special subject. We, Pharmacists, believe that there are three types of spiritual energy—natural spiritual energy, energetic spiritual energy, and animal spiritual energy. The combination of these three forms a true life form!

"Natural spiritual energy is present within nature, whereas animal spiritual energy is within an animal's body, including humans… As for energetic spiritual energy, it is deemed as the most unstable one, it is ever-changing and especially loves the Night Family Clan!

"The allocation of medicament by practician pharmacists is a process of using various means to purify the natural spiritual energy and energetic spiritual energy.

"The true, finest medicament can directly supplement the two spiritual energies and balance out the animal spiritual energy in one's body, achieving various curing goals."

…

Within the study of the fundamentals of pharmaceutics, the author directly explained in detail about the world's pharmaceutics and his philosophical view. Fang Yuan was amazed by it while he was reading.

"Extracting natural spiritual energy from nature and energetic spiritual energy from within the body of the Night Family Clan to supplement the human body. This achieves various types of improved results—this is the foundation of pharmaceutics, three spiritual energies!

"Although it is definitely fake science when placed into the world of harsh laws of physics, these teachings can be accepted since there's also the presence of the Night Family Clan in the Alcala Mainland."
