Chapter 2 Dual Pathways
After lunch, Wang Xiaoming went straight back to the dormitory.
First, I read Zhao Guangxian's resume. After making sure there were no problems, he put the resume away and put it aside.
He began to mobilize his memory and began to recall the novel Lord of Mysteries in his previous life, listing the twenty-two ways to become a **** one by one in his mind.
Then list the learned and the cryptic separately.
The generalist path is the path taken by Emperor Russell in the novel Lord of Mysteries. People on this path are basically great scientists and great inventors. They focus on knowledge itself, and their most famous ability is the creation of extraordinary items.
So this sequence is also called the Artisan Path.
It's just that this world doesn't have extraordinary characteristics and extraordinary materials. Wang Xiaoming only hopes to use ghosts instead. If he can succeed, he can continue to turn ghosts into supernatural items and reduce the cost of use. By then, the headquarters will have a supernatural item, which will be helpful for maintaining the domestic Order helps tremendously.
The Mystic Path represents the arcane aspect of knowledge and can also create some spell scrolls. At a low sequence, you will master certain mysterious knowledge and can learn magic, witchcraft and divination.
So this sequence can also be called the wizard path.
In Wang Xiaoming's view, these two approaches are very similar, complementary and have their own characteristics.
Unfortunately, at low sequences, both paths have little combat effectiveness.
Of course, no matter which way you go, you will gain a certain amount of combat power and special abilities as you advance through the sequence. The True God Zero who is promoted to the final sequence is even more invincible.
Further up from the True God is the realm of the Old Ones. You need to monopolize the uniqueness of two sequences and the characteristics of each sequence, plus the Wilderness of Sefirot Knowledge to advance to the Old Ones.
And now that he has all the resources, he only needs to continue step by step to achieve the past.
Locking the door of the dormitory, Wang Xiaoming took out all the materials collected by Zhao Guangxian, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses. They were some candles and metal pieces, which are needed for arranging rituals in occultism.
The dormitory is very large, more than 60 square meters, with separate bedrooms and living rooms, and no surveillance. After Wang Xiaoming classified everything, he did not rush to arrange the ceremony, but first prepared to incorporate the secret-peeping potion.
Entering the consciousness sea space again, there is only one ball of light left in the consciousness sea space, which was formed by the secret-seeing man's potion. There is an eye-like symbol on it, but compared to the beginning, the secret-seeing man's potion became It feels a bit illusory, as if the power has passed away.
Observing this scene, Wang Xiaoming was not surprised. He just put his consciousness into the secret-seeing potion and got part of the information.
After reading the information, the doubts in his heart were lifted, because according to the information he obtained, he knew that the magic potion in the Secret Seeker's symbol had disappeared and the power was still there, but the form had changed into a gift.
Like in the novel, if you want to obtain the second way, it can only exist in the form of a gift. The gift is the end of this way—the power given by the old days.
In the world of the Lord of Mysteries, everyone can only choose one path to God. If you are greedy, tread two boats and cross two paths, you will easily go half crazy or die, and some will even turn into monsters.
This is because the extraordinary power itself contains madness and chaos, which come from the original creator who created the world. Even the powerful pillar-level Old Ones are not immune, so taking the magic potion must be in the correct order and method.
So if you want to have the power of the second path, you can only get the gift from the past. Only in this way can you not lose control.
The power of the gift is no different from the extraordinary ability obtained by taking potions in terms of use, but there is a difference in the source of the extraordinary power.
Becoming an Extraordinary after taking a magic potion, his extraordinary abilities come from the magic potion he has taken, and he needs to digest it, and then move up the promotion sequence step by step.
The gifted power belongs to the power given from outside. Because it is external power, it may be withdrawn. And as the power increases, the recipient's body and mind will move closer to the other person.
The advantage is that the power of gifts does not need to be played and digested. You only need to get the gifts corresponding to the old days to advance.
Wang Xiaoming now has two paths to the gods. The path of the generalist can be advanced by taking magic potions, and the secret peeper can pray for gifts in the wilderness of knowledge.
This is his golden finger, which is the guarantee for his survival in this world of supernatural resurrection. Wang Xiaoming also has a guess about the origin of the golden finger.
“I think it has something to do with the games on my phone.”
Wang Xiaoming thought to himself that he was playing games on his mobile phone when he got into a car accident. As soon as he chose a career, his vision went dark and he was sent away.
The game he was playing at that time was Mystery. It was very possible that the account in the game traveled through time with him.
Without thinking too much, Wang Xiaoming concentrated on piercing the light group of the secret spy. The familiar starlight spread out like fireworks, slightly illusory, and this time the color was purple.
There was murmuring in my ears again, but it was more serious than the first time, and there was also an inexplicable feeling of weightlessness.
But having already experienced it once, he had some experience and remained calm and unmoved.
Soon he felt itching all over his body, as if the hairs all over his body were crawling, and he couldn't help but want to scratch. Only then did he realize that his body had frozen, as if he had been hit by a immobilization spell and couldn't move.
Slowly, the strange feeling gradually disappeared. Just when Wang Xiaoming felt that it was about to end, his vision began to distort. Everything in the room was like a scene reflected in a magic mirror. It began to distort and lengthen, and then returned to normal.
The light turned into runes and the shadows turned into worms. After they burrowed into his body, the surroundings became completely normal.
After the fusion was completed, Wang Xiaoming took a long breath with lingering fear. He did not expect to meet a unique knowledge chaser among the Secret Seekers in the late stage of the gift. He almost thought that he was going to mutate.
Fortunately, there is no hidden sage in this world, otherwise, he would have died on the spot.
The phenomenon of knowledge chasing people is unique to the way of the voyeur. The **** pursues knowledge, and knowledge also pursues the voyeur. This is also a more dangerous point of the Secret Peeping Path.
But there are good and bad aspects. As long as they can survive this stage, the secret peeper will gain some special knowledge.
After checking the body and finding that there were no more arms or legs, Wang Xiaoming began to check the abilities gained after becoming a secret spy.
I have a lot of mysterious knowledge about magic, witchcraft, divination, etc. in my mind, as well as some basic ritual magic.
It's just that most of the rituals cannot be used. There are no foreign gods in this world, and his ritual magic cannot cross the world barrier.
As for other mysterious knowledge, he still needs to test them one by one to determine the situation.
The most obvious thing is that the eyes have undergone some changes, and they can see things more clearly. This is also a characteristic of people who peep into mysteries. Their eyesight is particularly good. Otherwise, how can you peep into mysteries?
When you reach the seventh wizard level in the wizard path sequence, your eyes will change even more, and you will have half-finished eyes of voyeurism. At that time, you will not only be able to peer into more things, but you can also put your eyes on creatures in the spiritual world and peek at them from a distance.
Equivalent to a camera, but this method requires a specific spiritual world creature. There is no spiritual world in this world, let alone any spiritual world creature.
In the end, when knowledge was chasing people, a piece of knowledge appeared in my mind out of thin air, that is - the method of making identification charms.
Appraisal is the ability of Sequence 7 in the Artisan Path. It can quickly identify magical items, intuitively grasp the abilities and problems of most extraordinary items, and use them to avoid danger as much as possible.
Although it is not a battle spell, it is very useful for him to study supernatural ghosts.
Back in front of him, Wang Xiaoming prepared to meditate to activate spiritual vision. This is a special ability that can be activated after becoming a sequence extraordinary person.
After becoming an extraordinary person, he will gain the ability to use spiritual power. Wang Xiaoming can mobilize his spirituality through meditation to open his spiritual vision.
Wang Xiaoming only prepared to turn on spiritual vision after becoming a voyeur, just because voyeurs are better at this aspect than clairvoyants.
Spiritual vision is a special ability that only extraordinary people have. It allows extraordinary people to see the spirituality of all things, see the various auras of living beings to perceive their emotions and physical health, and also see some ghosts that cannot be seen with the naked eye. and the undead.
Somewhat like an enhanced version of Yin Yang Eyes.
The method of opening spiritual vision is mentioned in the mysterious novel. Wang Xiaoming directly imitated it step by step according to the content of the protagonist swallowing the magic potion in the novel.
The process of meditation went very smoothly. It may be due to the difference in the world or other reasons. The spiritual power was waving like an arm under Wang Xiaoming's thoughts.
Finally, he turned on his spiritual vision according to the plot of the novel and looked around.
Everything is business as usual!
Well, he kept no living things in his room except himself.
Spiritual power is possessed by every life, but it cannot be mobilized and used unless it is an extraordinary person. Compared with extraordinary people, the spirituality of ordinary life is very weak.
Wang Xiaoming looked down at his limbs and stomach, and instantly colorful colors appeared in front of his eyes.
"Um?"
Wang Xiaoming's face showed a solemn look, and the red color representing the health of his limbs became extremely thin, which indicated that there was a problem with his motor system.
This reminded him that later in the novel, he was paralyzed in a wheelchair due to a terminal illness, which may have something to do with it.
Their family seems to have been cursed. Their parents died young, and his younger brother Wang Xiaoqiang will soon become terminally ill and be forced to become a ghost controller.
This resulted in his younger brother always being resentful of him. Coupled with his lack of discipline towards Wang Xiaoqiang, this indirectly led to a series of subsequent tragedies.
Now counting the time, Wang Xiaoqiang's terminal illness will soon be diagnosed.
Turning off his spiritual vision, Wang Xiaoming took out his mobile phone, opened the phone book, and found Wang Xiaoqiang's phone page, but stopped just when he was about to press it.
Wang Xiaoming's expression became calm, "Since it is a terminal illness, it doesn't matter if I knew it sooner or later. It won't make any difference. My choice makes him resentful, so let him choose this time."
Wang Xiaoming, who has the memory of two lifetimes, has already changed his character and will no longer dote on his younger brother. He decides to give his stupid younger brother an unforgettable experience.
Since you want to change the world, let's start from now!
Putting down his mobile phone, Wang Xiaoming felt relieved. From now on, the world will be different.
As for his own physical problems, Wang Xiaoming feels that it is not a big problem. According to the memory of his past life, he still has about two years to live. By then, he will probably have become a demigod, and terminal illness will naturally not be a problem.
His current idea is to improve his sequence as soon as possible. Only in this way can he have the power to fight against supernatural beings and save the world.
The next step is the most important thing, entering the knowledge wilderness and checking the status of the knowledge wilderness. This step is necessary. Only by confirming that the knowledge wilderness is under his control can Wang Xiaoming's subsequent actions be meaningful.
The way to enter the Wilderness of Knowledge was obtained when he first saw the phantom of the Wilderness of Knowledge. The ritual was not complicated.
Wang Xiaoming took out four books from the bedroom, placed them in the four corners of the room, and then came to the middle of the room.
“The essence of knowledge, the source of mystery.”
“The brilliance of civilization and the persistence of truth.”
Every time he recited a sentence, Wang Xiaoming took a step forward. Until he took the fourth step, Wang Xiaoming suddenly felt a lightness in his body, as if he had stepped into space.
The whole person was floating, and Wang Xiaoming only saw himself surrounded by endless white light.
Suddenly, murmurs were heard in his ears, and countless information flooded into his mind, just like a computer from 1982 running Genshin Impact High Definition. Even if his brain was running out of smoke, it couldn't process so much information.
Fortunately, this information soon disappeared again. Only then did Wang Xiaoming realize that he had reached the wilderness of knowledge, and the white light he had just experienced seemed like a dream.
“It seems like this is the pollution of the wilderness of knowledge.” Wang Xiaoming thought in his mind.
The essence of the wilderness of knowledge is an information body composed of knowledge mysteries. Here everything is illusory and everything is real. Every leaf and every grain of sand here contains a large amount of information.
With a thought in his mind, the surrounding environment changed rapidly. He came to the black tower and looked up, unable to see the end.
Wang Xiaoming walked into the black tower and saw that it was empty inside, filled only with countless white light gauze. They were like light and gas. When you reach out and touch it, it disperses like smoke.
After arriving here, Wang Xiaoming instantly noticed the connection between him and the tower, and inexplicably learned some information. This black tower is the core of the wilderness of knowledge and the magic potions from the path of the sage and the secret peeper. .
As the game stipulates, every time he contains a potion and obtains a gift, he can gain part of the control of the Knowledge Wilderness.
When he becomes a true god, he can try to accommodate the wilderness of knowledge and advance to the old days.
And because this is not the world where the original creator lived, the world has isolated part of the influence of the original creator, which indirectly makes it easier to digest the potion. Although the divinity and madness left by the original creator are still there, he will never be revived.
This makes Wang Xiaoming's journey to becoming a person in the past relatively easy.
Until this moment, Wang Xiaoming had been tense with a smile on his face, because there were too many old silver coins in the mysterious world. He had always been afraid that the knowledge wilderness was alive and he was just a puppet in front of the stage. Now he is finally relieved.
After that, he waved his hand casually, and the black tower that the origin was transformed into disappeared. Wang Xiaoming hid the origin and would only appear when he was promoted in the sequence.
Then buildings began to appear where the towers disappeared. The ground seemed to be arched by a giant beast, and tall buildings rose from the ground and continued to spread around. After a while, an empty and uninhabited city appeared in the wilderness of knowledge.
The essence of the knowledge wilderness is a collection of information materials. Wang Xiaoming, who has some authority, can simply control it. Everything here can be changed at will. Wang Xiaoming does not need to consume excess energy. He only needs to pay to maintain his existence here. Just be spiritual.
Looking at the brand-new Dajing City, Wang Xiaoming couldn't help but feel childlike. He kept teleporting in Dajing City, appearing on high-rise buildings and in the river.
Wang Xiaoming didn't withdraw from the wilderness of knowledge until he felt the swelling and pain between his eyebrows.
The real world, in the dormitory.
The Chinese characters in the books in the four corners of the room turned into twisted runes, gathered together to form an eye-shaped rune, and landed on Wang Xiaoming's wrist.
The books in the corner became wordless scriptures.
Wang Xiaoming was not surprised when he saw this scene. Just like Klein in Mystery, he would not need to arrange the ritual again when he enters the wilderness of knowledge.
After putting several wordless books back on the bookshelf in his bedroom, Wang Xiaoming rubbed his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth. He gained a lot from this trip to the wilderness of knowledge. Not only did he completely confirm his control over the wilderness of knowledge, he also learned about the original creator. Cannot be resurrected.
Now he only has to face the problem of digesting the potion, which is like putting food in his mouth.
After recovering for a while, Wang Xiaoming recalled the memory of making the identification charm. This was the first time he encountered knowledge gained from one person to another.
Talisman is a major feature of the mysterious world, and it is almost a necessity when the Church of the Seven Gods fights. This makes their methods versatile and can cope with a variety of scenarios.
Different from the spells in immortality novels, the spells in the mysterious world are produced by low-sequence extraordinary beings praying to higher-sequence beings for power.
At the middle level, you can also pray to yourself through rituals. This is a technique for extraordinary people to mobilize their spirituality and use extraordinary power.
Just because the world is different, there are no other high-sequence Extraordinaries here, so Wang Xiaoming can only pray to himself.
He planned to use the knowledge obtained through the secret-seeing method to arrange mysterious rituals, pray to his own authority in the wilderness of knowledge, and finally use the original authority to respond.
But before that, he needs to design a three-part honorary name for himself. The function of the honorary name is to better point to himself in the wilderness of knowledge during the ceremony.
A prayer ceremony without a specific honorary name is very likely to be sensed by the evil **** and reduce its power. This is very dangerous for extraordinary people.
In the mysterious world, many tragedies are caused by evil gods, so it is necessary to design an honorary name.
Not long after, based on the mysterious knowledge in his mind and some plots in mysterious novels, Wang Xiaoming used the draft to quickly design the honorific names and the equipment used in the ceremony.
He first took out some of the utensils prepared by Golden Glasses to make the body of the spell. Fortunately, the metals he prepared were rich in types. It didn't take long for him to make six rough bronze metal pieces.
Then, according to the ritual knowledge in his mind, Wang Xiaoming arranged the ritual on the coffee table in the living room, and took out a sachet from the bedroom, which contained dried lavender flowers, which he usually used to soothe and aid sleep.
He opened the sachet, crushed some of the dried flowers and sprinkled them on the candle to replace the floral essential oil.
Using a silver knife to guide his spirituality to lay out the spiritual wall, he finally read out the three-part honorary name he had just designed:
“Extraordinary people who do not belong to this era;”
“You are the mysterious master above the tower;”
“You are the perfect king who discerns the truth.”
“I pray to you;”
“I pray that you will give me strength;”
“Give me the power to make identification charms!”
As the owner with partial authority over the Knowledge Wilderness, Wang Xiaoming quickly received feedback. There was a buzzing sound in his ears, as if someone was talking, but it was intermittent as if the signal was not good.
Wang Xiaoming took four steps forward, silently reciting a mantra at each step, and returned to the wilderness.
Following the sound, he looked through the barriers and saw himself in the dormitory, and then used the source he had mastered to provide feedback.
In the real world, the six bronze flakes on the ceremonial coffee table changed, glowing with white light, and unknown energy seemed to be poured into them from the void.
As time went by, three of the flakes began to crack, and the white light disappeared when the cracks appeared. In the end, only three charms were made.
After returning to the real world, Wang Xiaoming only felt a little sleepy. Although he consumed the power of the knowledge wilderness, as an operator, his sequence was too low and he still lost a lot of spirituality.
There is also the differentiation of the world. The world of the Lord of Mysteries was created by the original Creator. Everything in the world retains the power of the Creator, and the underlying rules serve the extraordinary power.
But this world does not have the power of the original creator, nor does it have a spiritual world or a star world, so it is somewhat acclimatized.
Originally, he wanted to make more talismans, but he didn't expect that half of the talismans failed due to the differences in the world.
It's just that these problems are not something he can solve at the moment, and Wang Xiaoming doesn't worry too much. He looks at the three identification charms on the coffee table. These are charms made by the ability of the Artisan Path, Sequence Seven Appraiser, and can identify extraordinary items.
Simply because his sequence is too low and the power he is given is too little. In addition to the first operation, the power of the spell can only last for a week. After that, the power on the spell will gradually disappear until it is completely unusable.
Put away the charm carefully and clean the coffee table. Wang Xiaoming, who was a little tired, went back to the bedroom to rest.
