The sequence is too involutional, luckily I am too.

Chapter 133 The Path to Advancement as a Secret Arts Professor - Ancient Wizard

[Second Floor - Knowledge Corridor - East]

As the four of them passed through the gate, a new clue flashed through their minds.

"Another knowledge corridor?"

Yin Shuo scratched his head. At this rate, wouldn't they have to walk through the entire Knowledge Corridor from east to west and north to south?

"Since they are divided into different areas, the customs clearance methods should also be different."

Lu Yan looked around and indeed found that the books here were much more organized than before.

However, the script used on the spine of the book did not seem to be from their time, and he did not recognize any of it.

He tried to take one out to look at, but found that all the books were firmly embedded in the bookshelf and could not be taken out at all.

"A completely different approach from the West District—"

Lu Yan seemed to be deep in thought, then suddenly gave a soft shout: "Come!"

Suddenly, a vast amount of spiritual energy surged out, covering several surrounding bookshelves.

Then, with a snap, a book from the bottom corner flew out towards Lu Yan.

Lu Yan took the book but did not rush to look at it. Instead, he observed its location.

Although the text was incomprehensible, Lu Yan could vaguely discern that this book seemed to be the first volume of a series of books.

"Does this mean we have to finish one book before we can move on to the next?"

A bad feeling arose in Lu Yan's mind.

"Is this ancient Hermes? Could this place be a remnant of a civilization from the previous era?"

At this moment, Yin Shuo suddenly leaned over and exclaimed in surprise after seeing the words on it.

Seeing Yin Shuo's reaction, Lu Yan was also a little surprised. He was about to ask, but after seeing the surprised looks on the other people's faces, Lu Yan obediently shut his mouth.

Clearly, this was another required course at the college that he hadn't taken.

But why does even Yao Qing, who enrolled with him, know this? Is he really too outdated?

[Ancient Hermes language discovered; currently being entered and decoded —]

The panel displayed a timely message, and Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, he had a cheat code!

At this moment, the others also noticed this and gathered together to study the book in Lu Yan's hand.

Although the academy teaches ancient Hermes, this ancient script is incomplete and very old, making it very difficult for them to learn.

It's only because Yin Shuo was bored that he learned some things; otherwise, he might not have recognized it.

Taking advantage of this time, Lu Yan finally had the opportunity to study the "Fool's Gift".

[The Fool's Gift: A gift from the fool; if the extraordinary can use it, they can glimpse a corner of history, if they can bear it.]

"Spying into history?"

Lu Yan hesitated for a moment, but still chose to open it.

The next instant, Lu Yan felt countless images rushing towards him, appearing rapidly before his eyes like a revolving lantern.

Initially, it was Lu Yan who personally experienced it, but afterwards, there were some scenes he had never seen before, chaotic yet real.

With this thought in mind, Lu Yan quietly activated his domain, the Realm of Truth, which greatly enhanced his thinking ability, and the images became clearer.

Having witnessed countless battles, the Divine Martial Saint vaguely glimpsed the path of his own future.

The Lord of the Black Forest has witnessed countless deaths, and within the Black Forest, the deathly aura gradually overwhelms the forces of nature.

The Dragonblood Priest felt a pang of melancholy at not finding any record of dragons in history.

The executioner, having witnessed countless hidden darkness and injustices, felt lost about his current path.

Having witnessed countless tragic outcomes after gambling failures, the master gambler felt he should seek a more stable path.

Several sequences yielded results, but the arcane professor remained unresponsive.

The scenes change faster and faster, but the scenes in the scenes become increasingly ancient.

In a daze, Lu Yan seemed to see that once glorious and extraordinary era.

But before he could examine it closely, the image gradually dimmed, as if it might disappear at any moment.

"Is it too late?"

Lu Yan felt a chill run down his spine and focused all his attention on the images.

After the last image flashed by, the arcane professor finally gave feedback.

[The professor of arcane arts witnessed the cultivation practices of an ancient wizard and clarified part of the path to advancement!]

【Promotion Requirement 1 for Mystic Arts Professor: Collect all five mystic arts (3/5) - Incomplete】

[Second requirement for promotion to Professor of Arcane Arts: ???]

[Secret Arts Professor Promotion Requirement Three: ???]

【Secret Arts Professor Promotion Requirement 4: Master an ancient meditation technique (0/1) — Incomplete】

The professor of arcane arts was the first to reveal the path to advancement?

Lu Yan's eyes lit up. This path had always been the final promotion route, but he never expected that this time he would overtake others and be revealed first.

It's a pity that only the first and fourth conditions were revealed, otherwise it would have saved us a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, Lu Yan couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

If the Fool's gift had lasted a little longer, perhaps the whole story would have been revealed.

"However, it's not entirely without clues. Perhaps we can start with the ancient wizards."

Lu Yan silently memorized the term, then focused his attention and checked on the progress of the others.

Because they controlled the area of ​​the Realm of Truth, the other three did not notice anything unusual about Lu Yan, and only thought that he was in a daze.

The group wasn't surprised, since Lu Yan hadn't attended a single class since the start of the semester, so there was something wrong with his perception.

[Analysis successful; some Old Hermetic text has been entered.]

In an instant, a flood of information rushed into Lu Yan's mind, and the originally obscure books became easy to understand.

"The Knight's Apprentice Breathing Technique?"

Lu Yan's gaze turned strange.

The breathing technique itself is fine, but the prefix is ​​quite debatable.

Knight Apprentice—this doesn't sound like a product of the Sequence Civilization; it sounds more like someone from the same era as the wizard the arcane professor saw.

"Since there's a Knight Apprentice Breathing Technique, there should also be a Wizard Meditation Technique, right?"

Lu Yan told the three of them about his discovery, and the three of them, who were working hard to discuss and translate, were stunned when they heard what Lu Yan said.

No way, you're really good at this!

"I suddenly understand why Lu Yan wasn't interested in going to class."

Yin Shuo looked on with envy. If he had Lu Yan's abilities, what reason would the old man have to force him to learn this and that?

Despite his complaints, Yin Shuo calmed down and continued to finish reading the book on breathing techniques.

Although Lu Yan had a general idea of ​​what was going on, there were still some characters he couldn't decipher, and they would have to figure them out slowly.

Lu Yan himself began to search carefully along the corridor.

With a basic understanding of ancient Hermetic, he was finally able to distinguish the titles of some books.

As expected, he finally found what he was looking for in a corner.

The Wizard Apprentice's Meditation Method

Although it's uncertain whether the apprentice's breathing technique meets the requirements of a secret arts professor, since the conditions don't emphasize rank, there shouldn't be any problems.

Most importantly, he doesn't seem to have any better options.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Yan opened the book and quickly began to read.

Time flew by, and Lu Yan's reading speed increased rapidly.

【? ? ? Wizard Apprentice Meditation Technique (Beginner): 0%】

Finally, the familiar subtitles popped up in front of Lu Yan's eyes, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If you can gain the panel's approval, you will definitely be able to cultivate it. The only question is whether this meditation method can be approved by the secret arts professor.

The next instant, Lu Yan suddenly felt as if the bookshelf beside him had been released from some kind of restraint, and another book was opened to him.

Sure enough, you have to completely master one book before you can unlock the next one, which really forces you to grow.

Meanwhile, Yin Shuo and his two companions on the other side also reaped considerable rewards.

Although only Ning Ran among them leaned towards the physical body, a breathing technique from ancient times was still a great benefit for them.

As long as you can submit it, you can definitely redeem a lot of points.

Most importantly, this is just one book here!

Looking at the densely packed, unopened books around him, Yin Shuo's breathing became heavy.

But just as the group was about to turn to the next book, a strange thing happened in the corridor!

Two black-armored knights appeared silently at the end of the corridor, black smoke constantly escaping from their empty helmets.

"It wasn't that easy after all."

Lu Yan was not surprised. With a thought, the Hundred Weapons Box behind him suddenly opened.

Ten swords shot out, whistling as they rushed toward the Black Knight.

The Black Knight parried immediately, but the golden sword, which should have been indestructible and could pierce armor, failed to cause any significant damage to him.

However, Lu Yan did not only have this one sword. Although the Black Knight was not injured in the face of the harassment from the dry sword, his movements were also restricted.

On the other side, Ning Ran rushed out immediately and blocked the path of another black knight.

Although not as casual as Lu Yan, Ning Ran's strength, far exceeding that of her peers, still allowed her to fight the Black Knight to a standstill.

Seeing this, Lu Yan calmly pulled out the second book and quickly began to memorize it.

There's definitely no time to analyze it, but memorizing a whole book shouldn't be a problem.

Moreover, judging from the text in the catalog, the book he has in his hand should be the record of the next stage of wizard meditation.

It's a pity that there are so many resources here; who knows when I'll be able to come back again.

According to Xiao Yiren, regardless of whether he succeeds in passing the challenge or not, the probability of encountering him again next time is not very high, so this may be the last time he appears in this scene.

But just as Lu Yan took out the second book, a third black knight appeared in the corridor.

"One book corresponds to one Black Knight—is this the value of knowledge in the East Corridor?"

Lu Yan did not forget the hint from the first level. With a casual gesture, the Seven Emotions Ghost emerged from the Black Forest and blocked the path of the third Black Knight.

Although these black knights did not exhibit any soul fluctuations, their emotions were exceptionally strong.

To be precise, should this be considered an obsession?

But no matter what, as long as they have emotions, the Seven Emotions Demon can unleash their greatest power.

Thus, the three black knights were completely intercepted and unable to advance an inch.

However, Lu Yan also discovered that the strength of these black knights was rapidly increasing over time.

Greed comes at a price.

Seeing this, Lu Yan hurriedly memorized the book in his hand while controlling the Ten Swords and the Seven Emotions Ghost to resist the Black Knight.

"Ning Ran, quickly take them down! They should be the key to the next level!"

At this moment, Yin Shuo seemed to realize something and loudly reminded him.

"good!"

Ning Ran responded immediately, unsealing her sword and blade simultaneously, which instantly transformed into a black flame demon form.

The originally small body instantly became huge, and before the Black Knight could react, the demon Ning Ran cleaved it in two with a single sword strike!

Before everyone could rejoice, a wisp of black energy emerged from the Black Knight's body and quickly merged into the bodies of the other two Black Knights, causing their auras to surge!

The power of these three Black Knights can actually be transferred!

If a Black Knight in his normal state could already hold his own against Ning Ran for so long, then the two enhanced ones—

"Snapped!"

Just then, Lu Yan suddenly closed the book in his hand.
