"The Gate of Darkness is a wall that protects those who are lost in the spiritual world in the real world..."
"Those lost people are just wandering inside the Dark Door, but some people will still encounter terrible things, which shows that the Dark Door is not a universal guard, and there are still flaws and dangers. The dangers from the outside can occasionally enter, perhaps just because of the projection of a certain existence. A glimpse..."
"Without the protection of this wall, or the Dark Door, the mysterious dangers in the real world would probably increase a hundred times, and they would no longer be able to be concealed..."
"Of course, for the mysterious apprentices who aspire to become extraordinary, they want to go out, they don't want to be protected!"
Zhong Shenxiu came to the bottom of the dark door and found that this wall seemed to be substantial, but it also seemed to be composed of a rich dark light.
‘The location of the Dark Door has been determined at this time. If you are an orthodox mysterious apprentice, you should use various methods to pass through it... to reach the real spiritual world outside! ’
He chuckled and stretched out his right hand, as if he wanted to touch the dark door.
The next moment, his fingers were like reaching into the lake, directly into the dark door.
'Sure enough... truly talented people can use their own spirituality to open the door to darkness, even without rituals. ’
‘Am I talented? ’
There was a smile on Zhong Shenxiu's lips, and she slowly moved forward and merged into the dark wall.
next moment.
He came deeper into the spiritual world, or in other words, where the real spiritual world is!
…
“The field of view becomes narrower.”
Zhong Shenxiu complained, and what appeared in front of him was a black grassland.
A kind of ear-shaped weed that looks like meat covers the entire ground. It will let out a scream when stepped on.
"Every time I enter the spirit world, I will use the coordinates when I left. So the next time I enter, I don't need to go through the dark door again."
"But...where is the pure white wilderness?"
Zhong Shenxiu looked around, feeling a little confused.
If he knew the location of the Pure White Wilderness, he could walk there directly or even try to cross it.
Be promoted to an 'excellent person' who can perform nameless arts all at once!
This kind of confidence comes from [Herder]!
"Essentially speaking, it matches the inheritance here very well, and the difficulty of these mysterious rituals is to test the qualifications of those who are promoted... But I already have the qualification certificate, that is, [Herder], so I can Effortlessly passing through the dark gate or even the pure white wilderness... Wherever I go, I find that I can't pass immediately. This is probably the limit of the [Herder]..."
"But the problem is, I have to find the pure white wilderness before I can try to pass..."
In this world, passing through the Dark Gate is to be promoted to an 'Extraordinary', and after that, one has to undergo more systematic learning and adventure in the spiritual world to reach the edge of the pure white wilderness.
At this time, the 'Extraordinary' can be said to have met the prerequisites for promotion to the 'Excellent'. They need to find ways to pass through the pure white wilderness, which is more difficult than the previous pure accumulation and exploration.
But to Zhong Shenxiu, this is nothing! What really hindered him was the process of finding the pure white wilderness!
"I can reach it by searching slowly by myself, but it's hard to say in terms of time... I still need advanced occult knowledge and other 'keys'!"
The key does not have to be in the shape of a key, it can also be a magic book, a weapon, a compass, or even a sacrificial instrument.
As long as it can guide the path of the spiritual world, it counts!
‘I need to go to Julie and exchange the occult knowledge after ‘Extraordinary’. This will help me speed up my exploration and discover the pure white wilderness... But I can’t directly say that I have been promoted, she will be frightened. ’
In fact, it is normal for people in the mystical world to spend several years exploring the spiritual world and then be blocked for years and decades before reaching the threshold.
Zhong Shenxiu is no longer called a genius, but should be called a freak!
"The spiritual world is full of dangers... Sometimes just seeing a silhouette can lead you to fall into the abyss..."
"And getting lost is also a very dangerous thing."
"Walking around at will may make you farther and farther away from the pure white wilderness... So at this time, the best choice is to log off and wait until you find enough information to come back!"
Zhong Shenxiu snapped his fingers.
He took one last look at the spiritual world, and his figure slowly disappeared in this area.
…
Whisperer Bar, second basement floor.
In the secret room.
"Have I passed through the Dark Gate and become an 'Extraordinary'?"
Zhong Shenxiu closed her eyes and felt the difference in her body.
At this time, he could clearly feel that the originally inert and silent spirituality, which was inside his body but seemed not to be inside his body, somewhere between reality and illusion, began to become active as if it had been activated.
The spirituality that once had to be awakened occasionally by external stimulation has become able to be commanded at will, like an arm and a finger.
As long as the spirit moves, just like Julie, he can use his huge spirituality to oppress the spirituality of ordinary people, causing a spiritual crushing effect.
This preliminary application is called ‘reiatsu’!
"I see……"
He tried again and suddenly came to a realization: "Although [Herder] is compatible with this world, it is not a local power system after all, and there is an unrecognized problem."
"It's like when experts from one country go to a foreign country, some countries don't recognize their country's certificates, and they need to go through the process again and take the certificate test again."
"Of course, because I have the hard power, the examination process is naturally extremely easy and simple..."
After another test, Zhong Shenxiu couldn't help but shake his head: "'Extraordinary' is still too weak, and his body has not been strengthened much... The wizard who was killed might not be an 'Extraordinary', but an 'Excellent' 'Level, um... 80% of Julie and her small circle can see the Golden Tower of Babel, and they are roughly at the level between 'Excellent' and 'Upgraded', right?"
"The mysterious people in the first three levels are all likely to be killed by firearms and artillery shells... so the difference in strength is not particularly large."
"But the 'Excellent One' who can perform nameless arts is very important to me!"
This is Zhong Shenxiu's intuition, or a conclusion he came to after thinking.
The nameless art is dangerous, chaotic, and needs to be redefined by practitioners.
And this definition process is also very dangerous, and you may not be able to get the magic you want in the end.
But Zhong Shenxiu is different. His own [Herder] is a definition! Define the possibility of chaos and abstract concepts into specific spell types and powers!
"As long as I reach the level of 'Excellent', I can probably restore part of the [Herder]'s strength by using the nameless technique!"
