How clever Medanzo was. When he deciphered the texts from the Aurora Continent, he surmised that the so-called Divine Ashes Technique capable of altering reality was precisely what they were seeking.
Even the memories he lost inexplicably were related to the Divine Ashes Technique.
The birth conditions of the Divine Ashes Technique were incredibly harsh, and yet the inscriptions on the walls of the ruins didn't record much about it, apart from a few murals depicting the related contents.
Those murals depicted a bloody ritual in which a woman with black hair cascading like a waterfall was hung on an ancient cross, her withered, branch-like hands tore through her abdomen from the inside out, yet she did not die from this but exuded a noble divinity. Her golden blood flowed down like lava while the faithful underneath the altar silently sang hymns, bathed in the blood. Above their heads, an anomaly appeared where both the solar and lunar eclipses occurred simultaneously.
