My Marvel Superman Girlfriend.

As Xinian walked down the corridor of the sanctuary, he narrowed his eyes slightly. What concerned him was naturally not Strange, who was studying here.

Instead.

The black mist that had vanished and dissipated around Strange, a tangible manifestation of the concept of death, began to coalesce again.

Black mist enveloped every part of Strange's body!

The black mage next to him was also surrounded by a black mist of lethal concentration!

Does this mean that a terrible event will soon occur at the Mage Sanctuary?

However, in Xinian's view, the sanctuary appeared unchanged from three years ago, still a peaceful and idyllic paradise.

The mages here are completely unaware of the potential deadly danger!

"How could she not have foreseen this?"

Xinian already had many questions in his mind, and now he had even more, all of which he wanted to find the Ancient One to ask clearly.

soon.

Wanda led Xinian to a dark storeroom with underground steps leading down to it: "Young Master, this is it."

"Wanda, aren't you coming in with us?" Xinian asked curiously, looking at Wanda, who had stopped and showed no intention of going down.

Wanda obediently replied, "The Ancient One won't let me into the library."

"You haven't been inside for over three years?" hope Nian asked.

Wanda glanced at the steps leading down to the underground and shook her head: "No."

Here comes another strange place.

hope Nian thought for a moment and said, "Then you wait for me outside."

Wanda nodded.

Xinian supported himself against the cold, smooth wall and descended the steps. After going down about one floor, a half-open stone door appeared before him, with a bright orange-red firelight shining inside.

Kamar-Taj, the underground vault.

An ancient and mysterious aura emanated from the area.

hope Nian didn't mind and stepped inside.

Although he considers himself just an ordinary person, he has experienced too many extraordinary things, witnessed the deepest mysteries of the universe, and touched the most mysterious things.

It was once more invincible than Superman, and it once confronted multiple dimensions.

Having walked with death, yet also holding eternity in one's grasp.

All the mysteries contained in Kamar-Taj were not enough to move Xinian; at most, they made him feel novel and surprised.

There are no restrictions.

Xinian went straight into the basement.

visible.

Inside, rows of three-meter-high black bookshelves are displayed, with thick, stapled, strange ancient books locked on them by thin chains.

One of the bookshelves had a broken chain, and an ancient book was missing from its shelf...

"Who?"

Inside, a slightly overweight man in a yellow robe exclaimed in surprise, instinctively showing hostility towards Xinian as he entered the library.

"fine."

Beside him, a bald woman in a dark monk's robe raised her hand to stop the slightly overweight man's actions, her voice calm and steady: "Your Majesty, I summoned him."

The slightly overweight man, referred to as "King," then lowered his hands, but continued to scrutinize Xinian.

Realizing that the other party was just an ordinary person without any magical power, Wang was even more surprised by the other party's identity.

Sudden.

Wang stared intently at the ordinary trench coat draped over hope Nian's shoulders, utterly astonished, even doubting his own senses: "Wait a minute, what are you wearing...?"

"Oh, you mean it?"

hope Nian shrugged, flicked his collar, and turned the trench coat he was wearing back to its original shape.

The dark red cloak billowed backward on its own, barely reaching the young man's calves, and exuded an aura of surging magical power.

Chapter 364, The Ancient One in Black, the Forbidden Secret

"It really is the Levitation Cloak..."

Wang's eyes widened as he looked at the dark red cloak that Xinian was wearing, which looked like it was made by an old nobleman. His round, fleshy face clearly showed surprise.

Master Wang knew this.

This artifact, which should have been kept in the New York Temple, possesses its own consciousness and is older than the sanctuary itself, making it incomparable to ordinary temple artifacts.

He visited the New York Temple two years ago and found it strange that the Levitation Cloak, which had been displayed in the Temple's showcase for many years, was gone, replaced by a blue replica of the cloak.

It turns out that the genuine item already had an owner, an ordinary person with no magical aura.

This could not help but surprise and puzzle the king, who was the guardian of the Kamar-Taj Library and a highly experienced sorcerer in the sanctuary.

"Your Majesty, you may leave now."

The Ancient One, whose exact age was impossible to discern, spoke softly. She was not wearing her usual yellow monk's robe, but rather a completely black robe, which exuded an eerie aura.

Only those eyes, as always, remained calm and serene, gazing at Xinian.

"Yes, Your Holiness!"

Wang immediately bowed, glanced at Xinian one last time, and then left towards the entrance of the library.

To the mages of the Sanctuary, the Sorcerer Supreme was a god-like figure, and all they had to do was obey.

The Supreme Master is surely doing the right thing and will lead them to the best future!

Click!

The stone door leading outside is closed, making the small underground library seem like a separate space.

The torches hanging on the wall have been there for who knows how many years. The sound of the flames burning can be heard in the quiet room, and the bright, warm light shines on the woman and the boy.

How many times has this person seen the Ancient One?

hope Nian had already forgotten, but thought it must have happened at least ten times.

He has seen the Supreme Being more times than some monks who reside in the sanctuary, although Wanda certainly saw him more times.

hope Nian noticed that Gu Yi was not wearing the magical necklace she used to own.

What happened here?

Xinian used this as his opening remark, then glanced around in confusion.

He had just noticed that the library looked like it had been broken into, and the chain that had held an ancient book on the bookshelf was broken.

Ancient One's still-youthful face remained unchanged as she stated frankly, "Some time ago, a sorcerer named Mordo defected from Kamar-Taj. This morning, he suddenly broke in with his men and took away a magic book."

"Another mage has defected?"

hope Nian frowned. Three years ago, when he entered super body mode, he had casually wiped out a group of dark mages.

The leader of that group of dark mages had also studied in Kamar-Taj.

Dark sorcerers are all corrupted from the original guardian sorcerers of Kamar-Taj!

The Ancient One remained calm and replied, "When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you."

Her words were soft and steady, as if she were recounting an epic tale steeped in countless years, a tragic history:

"The guardians of Kamar-Taj have been fighting against the multidimensional world and preventing its invasion for years, but in doing so, they have glimpsed the terrifying secrets and whispers of the multidimensional world. Unable to maintain their own selves, they have turned to extremes."

After listening, hope Nian asked again, "What were the stolen magic books?"

Gu Yi stepped forward, passing by hope Nian, and, glancing at the empty bookshelves, answered without reservation:

"The library contains all the spellbooks from the thousand-year history of Kamar-Taj, but permission must be obtained from the library's guardian—the king—before reading them."

"Because this place contains several forbidden and nonexistent magical books, and the one that was stolen is one of them, called the 'Dark Book'."

"The Dark Book...?" hope muttered the book's name aloud, his keen senses immediately giving him a vague feeling of darkness and evil.

"Since these are forbidden magical books, isn't it a bit too casual to just leave them in a library where they can be read at any time, even with guardians watching over them?"

hope Nian looked at Gu Yi with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

If other mages saw this, they would certainly find it unacceptable.

The Supreme Master has done everything right, and there is no need for any questioning or resistance!

Gu Yi wasn't angry, as if she knew hope Nian's easygoing nature, and continued to answer calmly:

"Those forbidden magic books are so difficult for even me to understand and comprehend that they are like celestial texts to mages."

A flash of understanding crossed Xinian's eyes: "Is this also why you forbid Wanda from setting foot in this library?"

This time.

The Ancient One finally fell silent.

After a long silence, Gu Yi replied, "Yes."

"That's really true."

Xinian patted his forehead and let out a long breath.

Unlike other sorcerers, Wanda could read the forbidden books here, thus gaining insight into taboos and multidimensional mysteries.

And yet, because...

The longer you gaze into the abyss, the longer you will be gazed into by the abyss!

The more you understand multidimensionality, the more you will be invaded by it!

and so.

The Ancient One forbade Wanda from entering this place and dared not let her come into contact with the forbidden books, for fear that she would open the forbidden door!
