Witcher: Master Kiliman’s Grand Ambitions-Chapter 51: Greatly Increased Potential, Isn't This Forcing Me to Become a Scumbag?

Awakening?
Soul Projection?
After hearing Deep Blue's prompts, Kiriman clearly sensed that these two newly added features were the key points of this soul advancement.
He then looked at his status panel.

After the soul advancement, the Deep Blue panel had undergone significant changes.
Kiriman discovered that not only had his physical attribute caps all increased to ten times that of ordinary people, but the level caps for his exclusive skills had also been raised to level six.
Even his originally barely two-meter tall physique seemed to have undergone secondary growth after the molting process. Not only had his muscles expanded another notch, but his height had also increased by about five centimeters, and a certain critical part seemed to have grown as well.
If every soul advancement brought such rapid growth, he could even imagine the scene of petite girls being held in his arms, reaching straight to their stomachs in one step.
Tsk tsk tsk!
Kiriman felt happy about this in his heart. Becoming a muscular hunk was every man's dream.
Even with such explosive physical growth, his muscles still maintained a perfect physique, clearly defined like a leopard's, full of explosive power.
Not only that, but the various exclusive skills he originally learned from Berengar from the Wolf School, which were just one step away from perfection, had now reached completion.
This time, probably because his soul sequence had been sublimated, he experienced a kind of enlightening epiphany. Now including Wolf School Swordsmanship, all four skills could be upgraded.
Counting the upgradable soul skill [Spatial Storage] and the newly added [Soul Projection]—these two exclusive soul skills—Kiriman felt an extreme shortage of soul points.
Even with ten thousand soul points, it seemed impossible to max out all these skills, creating a terrifying deficit.
And this was only the second soul sequence.
Thinking about the soul point deficits he might face in the future, he felt like he would transform into a soul-devouring beast, swallowing the entire world.
However, Kiriman quickly dismissed this thought and focused on another important piece of information.
The next sequence in soul advancement was called [Superhuman], meaning becoming a superhuman being.
He could actually perform a bloodline advancement ritual, integrate a superhuman bloodline, and use this superhuman power.
This was something he hadn't anticipated before but desperately desired—it could truly be called a pleasant surprise.
As for the two superhuman bloodlines he had currently encountered—the Queen of the Night's Higher Vampire Bloodline and Alvin's Elder Blood Bloodline—the choice was obvious.
The Elder Blood Bloodline could be said to be the one and only strongest bloodline in the Witcher world, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the key to opening the multiverse.
With this bloodline, he could travel between different worlds and even potentially possess the ability to traverse time.
If he could travel to worlds full of monsters, similar to Diablo, Elden Ring, or Warhammer worlds—realms filled with slaughter and war—then his soul point deficit wouldn't be a problem, with endless monsters to kill throughout these worlds.
If he could travel to worlds like Middle-earth or The Elder Scrolls, where wealth and opportunities abound in warm, pleasant environments, then he wouldn't need to worry about financial resources or divine equipment, living a relaxed and enjoyable adventurous life.
Of course, danger and opportunity coexisted.
In his current condition, he would probably be noticed by the Four Chaos Gods immediately upon entering the Warhammer world, and that would truly be the end.
But for now, everything was just speculation. Looking at his soul advancement progress bar, which had changed to 0/500, Kiriman only felt his kidneys tingling and his testicles protesting, demanding that he exercise some restraint.
Cultivating both spirit and soul wasn't supposed to be like this. Even donkeys in production teams need regular rest—wasn't this forcing him to become a scumbag?
Coupled with the enormous soul point deficit, he felt it would probably take him six months to a year to complete the task of advancing to [Superhuman].
Fortunately, Witchers had long lifespans, and as a Perfect Witcher, his lifespan would be measured in millennia at minimum.
This amount of time meant nothing to him.
Kiriman collected his thoughts and, while he still had time, tried out his newly acquired soul skill [Soul Projection].
This was a skill that could only be used while in a meditative state.
Simply put, it involved separating a strand of soul doppelganger from his soul light cluster, transforming it into a semi-solid state that could move freely within ten meters of his body. It could also observe the world from a soul perspective through soul vision, much like a malevolent spirit or ghost.
Unless he willingly revealed himself, ordinary people couldn't see his soul, yet he could use this soul state to observe abnormalities in others' souls, even peep, steal, or invade others' souls.
However, since the skill level was still low, this strand of soul doppelganger wasn't very powerful and could probably only serve auxiliary functions.
Even so, being able to observe the world from a soul perspective was nearly miraculous for ordinary people.
Only certain spellcasters like witch doctors, wizards, and shamans had similar methods, and probably most sorcerers couldn't achieve this either.
