You are all my wings!

Because the sense of danger from the outside world had increased for him, he stopped being distracted by flirting with Bai Shaqilai.

Normally, he would have made a joke or two about it to try and sway her.

A 51% favorability rating already indicates a pretty good friendship, a middle stage where a little push could lead to a more serious relationship.

As an old pervert... no, as an old gentleman, he has an instinctive reaction to this kind of thing, as natural as breathing.

At this moment, he focused on observing his surroundings.

Ahead lies the site of the previous attack, a broad-leaved forest with tall trees, mainly camphor and banyan, their green tops and broad branches overlapping in layers, stretching as far as the eye can see.

Birds chirped in the woods, and occasionally a deer would flash by.

At first glance, it seems quite normal.

But an invisible pressure inexplicably came over him, making his skin crawl and his body instinctively straighten up.

The brain in Deep Miracle Mode seems to be constantly telling itself, "Run, get out of here!"

Lyon also felt the pressure from the mental level, which was beginning to increase.

He turned his head to look at Bai Shaqilai and found that the legendary woman's pupils were beginning to dilate, and she was almost losing consciousness.

Could it be that besides the suppression of mental power, something else is exerting an even stronger suppression on her?

Suddenly, Lyon was struck by a realization, understanding a crucial point.

"It's divine power! This is a divine relic, a divine relic from before it was unsealed and activated in my previous life. It must be filled with divine power! Bai Shaqilai was corrupted by the legendary poem by the demon, and the poem is connected to the soul. So not only was her spiritual power suppressed, but her soul itself was also severely disturbed by the demon!"

As for why he wasn't affected, besides his strong mental strength, it was probably because the 7 points of divine energy he had absorbed earlier had also taken effect, allowing him to temporarily ignore the dense divine power here.

However, as time went on, I was clearly also disturbed.

But where is it safe to go?

No, although magic is forbidden here, divination, as a special skill that does not require the use of magic, may not be forbidden.

He tried to summon his divination powers and activate his miracle divination technique.

At the same time, he used his mental power to activate the Miracle Catcher skill and ascend.

Suddenly, my vision changed strangely, as if countless meteors were crashing into me at high speed, then streaking past, leaving behind one dazzling star trail after another.

Among the countless dazzling star marks, the brightest and most dazzling starlight rushed past at high speed, and he instinctively reached out to grab it in front of his field of vision!

boom!!!!!

At that moment, he felt the wonder of the combination of these two skills.

Among countless possibilities, he saw a safe zone, a safe zone where suppression in all aspects was relatively shallow.

They also obtained footage of the safe route.

The image resembles graffiti battered by wind and rain, with colors and lines gradually fading, but the general direction and distance are still discernible.

Despite lacking any information, they managed to divine a safe spot all at once, proving that the combination of these two skills is a perfect match.

No, actually there was intelligence, which was that he determined that the root of this suppression was the omnipresent yet extremely hidden divine power.

In addition, the vast amount of information he possessed in his previous life, especially the fact that he had entered this place after the ruins were conquered, made it easier for him to find the most correct 'miracle' than others.

Having figured this out, he maintained his embrace of Bai Shaqilai and slowly backed away.

Since he left the broadleaf forest area, the red line has not attacked again, which shows that although the thing is fast, it seems to be subject to some kind of restriction and will not attack indiscriminately.

So although he walked slowly, he remained relatively calm.

Bearing the growing sense of oppression in his mind, he walked slowly and cautiously.

15 minute later.

He crossed the mudflats in front of the lake and arrived at the edge of the forest on the other side of a place covered with rough rocks.

Stepping onto it, I felt an instant relaxation in my body and mind, and the suppression of my mental energy disappeared.

Lyon touched the rock with delight. It was smooth to the touch, like a giant pebble. Inside, there were patterns formed by intertwining three colors: brownish-red, charcoal black, and lake green. The patterns were delicate and symmetrical, and did not seem to be formed naturally.

A light tap sent a sharp pain through his bones, leaving him utterly numb. Leon couldn't help but click his tongue in surprise.

It would take at least an epic-grade material to be this hard.

No, it could even be used as raw material for semi-mysterious treasures.

If I can take this with me, this trip will have been worthwhile.

However, the entire bottom of the rock is connected as one piece, about half the size of a basketball court. It appears to have multiple protrusions, but in fact, they are all one piece. Lyon estimated that, let alone himself, even with the addition of the restored Bai Shaqilai, they would not be able to move this boulder.

If it were a boulder made of other ordinary materials, he would naturally be able to move it with his current strength. In terms of pure strength, he is already comparable to a human at the sixth level of strength.

But this one in front of us is clearly dozens of times heavier than an ordinary stone, possibly even hundreds of times heavier.

A few minutes later, as the oppressive force disappeared, Bai Shaqilai's beautiful eyelashes, as pink as frost, trembled slowly, and then she opened her eyes.

"Meow."

She meowed unconsciously, then suddenly rolled over, instinctively clutching her chest before realizing that Leon was drawing something on the ground.

Magic circle?

What's going on here?

"I just took some materials from your pouch. I need to advance my rank. Lady Bai Shaqilai, please protect me."

"You're advancing in rank here? Isn't your magic still sealed by Helvie and hasn't been touched?"

"Yes, so I'll need you to help me activate the magic circle later. I imagine that even though the magic power is suppressed in this rocky area, it's still somewhat usable, right?"

"magic?"

Only then did Bai Shaqilai realize that she could indeed mobilize a small portion of magic power.

I estimated it to be about one-twentieth of my total amount, which is very little, but it's enough for self-preservation.

"It does work, so you're trying to break through Helvie's magic seal by taking advantage of the upgrade?"

"I also have this idea. Essentially, her magic distorted my subconscious technique for casting magic, allowing me to control it within my body but not to unleash its effects. However, if I were to use the vast knowledge cloud that came with the advancement, I might be able to flip my knowledge of magic and thereby regain control over my magic."

Leon answered while drawing a magic circle.

In fact, he had already found a way to slowly break through the seal using the art of miracle divination.

But now the conditions are right, the materials are plentiful, and I have mastered two of my superior spells to perfection. I can also activate the three autonomous modes at any time. This is the best time to advance. With the two combined, I believe I can solve the problem of my magic being sealed.

Moreover, once you successfully advance to the next rank and cast a perfect-level superior spell with the help of your profession, you should be able to hold your own against a legendary character who hasn't activated their epic poem, right?

This gives me some confidence to deal with whatever comes next.

Given Herwiz's strength and mental fortitude, the chances of her being restricted when entering this place are very low.

Leon remembered that she had shown off her impressive physical skills and high level of power last time.

Even with Helvie's magic sealed, her power, four times the limit, is still far beyond what he can match now.

"Your Excellency, we are now in the same boat. This divine ruin has even interfered with your divination skills, causing you to not anticipate the magic-suppressing situation here. This means that the danger of this place has exceeded the scope of what a legendary figure can handle... By the way, you must not leave this rocky area. Based on my observation, the reason why you are in such poor condition after the fall is most likely because the demons within the poem were suppressed by divine power."

Bai Shaqilai was speechless.

He thought that using the divine ruins to avoid Helvie was a brilliant move, but it backfired right from the start, and he was even saved by Leon.

If you come in alone, you'll most likely not find this rock that can avoid the suppression of divine power.

"Did you find this place using your miracle divination techniques?"

"lucky."

lucky?

You are so modest.

Even though my soul was disturbed by the demons and I didn't awaken my spiritual power, I am still a legendary level, yet I performed so poorly here.

On the contrary, you are able to handle it so easily?

Bai Shaqilai gave a self-deprecating laugh, somewhat taken aback.

My legendary divination skills are not even as good as a fourth-tier miracle divination skill. I couldn't even divine this safe spot in advance. The gap is too big, isn't it?

She was momentarily plunged into self-doubt.

"Your Excellency, it seems you haven't grasped the true essence of miracle divination, leading you to misuse the two divination methods."

As Leon drew the magic circle, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Bai Shaqilai's changing expression and knew what she was probably thinking.

"So, what is the real essence?"

Bai Shaqilai couldn't help but ask.

"Miracle divination uses a superior perspective that transcends fate to look down on everything and get straight to the heart of the matter. But your divination, in the end, is still just finding fragments in the great web of fate. No matter how much information or intelligence you have, what use is it if it's all noise and alternative possibilities that interfere with your judgment? With so many possibilities, can you find the one that is truly in your best interest?"

Lyon casually activated his trust aura.

Take advantage of her wavering heart and ruthlessly bewitch her!

Although the current level of affection has reached a relatively safe threshold, it's hard to guarantee that Bai Shaqilai won't harm or force herself once she feels safe.

Therefore, he must take advantage of this weakness, press his advantage, and advance the mission!

Bai Shaqilai also fell into deep thought, and she murmured:

"Indeed, my legendary divination skills can bring me a lot of information and a lot of possibilities about the future, but they don't tell me how to choose what is most in line with my own urgent needs. I have to rely on myself to judge and interpret it."

Lyon smiled slightly:

"That's right. If you interpret the direction wrong, then even with your legendary level of massive intelligence gathering ability, you will only go further and further astray in the wrong direction. Therefore, you can make the right choice in most cases, but once the object of your divination far exceeds your own strength, you will make a big mistake."

"But why can your miracle divination easily predict things that far surpass your target's abilities? Is it simply because you really do possess a large number of future causal chains, as you previously suggested, with stable and solid anchor points? But how could this be related to information about the divine ruins?"

Bai Shaqilai was lost in confusion.

It seems that although the rock can relieve some of the suppression, she still has a lot of suppressive force, so much so that her thinking is not very sharp.

Lyon then said:

"It's very simple. The future will also be a network structure. I have divined the future of many key figures, so these powerful people must have also arrived at this divine ruin in the future, thus establishing a sufficient connection."

With that, he tossed aside the materials from which he had drawn the magic circle, stood up, and strode toward Bai Shaqilai.

"My hard work, accumulated day and night since I started this job, has become increasingly vast, profound, precise, and effortless. How can your superficial fortune-telling mentality compare? I highly approve of your character, but your professional attitude is extremely poor!"

Bai Shaqilai was deeply ashamed.

Yes, I went in the opposite direction, relying on luck and talent to stumble upon this place, while the other party had a clear plan from the beginning.

He was merely passively using the skills his profession had given him, while the other man had truly found a way to transcend fate within that profession. Why was he so self-pitying?

Where did that strong mentality go?

"You chose this profession for revenge, which was less motivated than mine from the start. Now that you're not performing well and have the excuse of your suppressed mental power, you're starting to feel lost? Haven't you truly realized how to fully develop the wonderful potential of this extremely rare profession of astrologer, as I've told you and shown you before?"

Bai Shaqilai looked up in a daze, gazing at Lyon striding towards her.

"I……"

"You foolish catwoman! You're so old, do I still need to teach you?! Do you think you can pretend to be innocent just because you look young? Just because you've reached the legendary level, does that mean you can deny that you've gone down the wrong path? Now, stand up and call me teacher!"

Lyon shouted sternly.

"Can……"

"But what do you mean, 'but'? Do you think you can truly understand the Miracle Astrologer without my teaching? Haven't you realized the significance of my presence in the visions you saw when you were at the critical junctures of your advancement to Epic and Demigod? Did I really hinder your advancement? No, shouldn't it be the other way around, with your divination telling you that you need me to truly break through the bottlenecks you created for yourself?"

Lyon's voice was stern and harsh.

Bai Shaqilai was speechless.

But sensing the credibility in Leon's words, and his calm and composed demeanor, he easily found a safe point that she hadn't divined, and she realized that her previous interpretation of the divination results as Leon hindering her promotion was very likely a misjudgment.

All of this seemed to be urging him to respond to Lyon.

Unable to contain herself, she whispered:

"Teacher...?"

"Good, good apprentice. From now on, I will teach you the true path of an astrologer that can make you a god."

Lyon stood atop Bassage's head, stroking it with his hand, a smile on his face:

"From today onwards, you and I are teacher and student. As a gift, I will help you eliminate evil spirits after I advance in rank. Learn from me, my good disciple."
