Lord of Mysterious Wizard
Chapter 422: 406

Chapter 422: 406

After ending the call with White Witch Zoe, Tang Qi’s brows furrowed even tighter. Various thoughts flickered through his mind, and from time to time, he personally pulled out Extraordinary Books from different eras, flipping through them based on his memories, gradually corroborating Zoe’s theory.

Professional Trial!

As a path to promotion, it was never without casualties.

In fact, the failure rate for Transcendents aiming for “Professional Level” was extremely high, and the outcome of failure was usually mutation or death, with only a small chance of survival.

Unless it was a special case like Bejinum and his son, it was very difficult for others to offer help to the Trialist.

While pondering, Tang Qi stood up and walked into the Meditation Room, in front of Professor Eva.

“Hu”

Silently, Tang Qi cast an “Illusion Spell” on Eva.

When saving Esmeralda and those Witches who were resolved to death, this witchcraft was proven effective. As long as the appropriate and true illusions were provided, it was enough to awaken the human self’s instinct to survive and nourish the will.

But this time, Tang Qi failed.

The power of illusion was blocked by an invisible wall that seemed immovable.

“Mysterious Barrier!”

There was no sign of surprise on Tang Qi’s face, as if he had long known this would be the outcome.

But to be more certain, Tang Qi also cast other witchcrafts like Red and Body Control Spell one after another.

The feedback was consistent – even his witchcraft could not penetrate the Mysterious Barrier to affect Eva.

This was recorded in many Extraordinary books.

A Transcendent who had accumulated enough power would be protected by the Mysterious Barrier during the trial, and neither harm nor anything else could affect them.

The Body Control Spell could at best reluctantly control Eva’s body, but it was useless at this moment.

Without the soul, it was just an empty shell.

According to Zoe and Tang Qi’s judgment, it seemed that the only way was to enhance her Soul Will.

But there was a problem – how to enhance it?

Tang Qi sat in the Meditation Room for hours, dry and motionless, until noon, still at a loss without any clue.

In between, Rafael made another call, confirming the appearance of some powerful Extraordinary Creatures in Secret Phoenix City. The Bright Church Secret Phoenix Branch also sent a letter, indicating that the Mysterious Side of Secret Phoenix City was entering a tense atmosphere.

Tang Qi had to inform the teachers of the external changes as the Principal and announced that the school was going into lockdown.

All students and teachers were not allowed to go out.

To ensure no accidents occurred, Tang Qi activated some of the magic defenses, not to the extent of “Secret Realm Inversion,” but enough to defend against most accidental states.

He handed most of the affairs over to several teachers.

Tang Qi then continued to ponder how to help Professor Eva escape the “predicament.” Eva was his most important aide among the current school’s teachers, even indispensable. If he could help her achieve Professional Level, the situation of the school would improve.

For this, it was worth expending some of Tang Qi’s energy.

Another whole night passed without any results for Tang Qi. The “Mysterious” Barrier was indeed enough to lead to despair.

He possessed the combat power surpassing most Professional Level Experts, but he was utterly unable to break through the barrier’s blockade, not even with Ralph Witchcraft.

The many attempts made by Tang Qi all ended in failure, making him look like a fool who wouldn’t turn back until he hit the south wall, gaining nothing but bumps on his head; that invisible barrier was a cold, unclimbable, unbreachable wall.

As his methods came close to exhaustion, Tang Qi began to scrutinize his trump cards.

Merit!

The foundation of the Melter Wizards’ arrogance and eventual self-destruction during the Dark Age.

Those dazzling Suns allowed Melter Wizards to exchange for incredible witchcraft or knowledge at their projected site.

Such as a “Profanity Blood Curse” that resolved the troublesome First Generation Witch Melada.

If there’s a fastest way to break through the barriers to the Mysterious Side, it might be through the projection of the Master of the Crucible.

Tang Qi thought so, unable to contain his urge to dive into the ruins of darkness, to search through the vast sea of knowledge like a misty ocean.

But at this very moment, Tang Qi suddenly paused.

He still had an ace up his sleeve!

“Hu”

An intense determination was released at this moment.

Gluttony, who was playing with the Night Beast and Elf, seemed to feel something; its “Pocket Space” within its belly opened for the first time.

A faint glow flew out of the opening, and a corpse appeared on the fourth floor of the Library Tower.

Boom!

No deliberate traces, but at that moment, the aura emanating from the corpse permeated Tang Qi’s temporary dwelling.

The three little guys were suppressed without warning.

But the Night Beast and Elf, of noble lineage, had no objections whatsoever.

“The aura of Divinity!”

The two little ones looked at each other, understood each other’s thoughts: it was the scent of the Divine, unbeatable.

The only one immune to the divine oppression was Tang Qi.

His gaze was completely fixed on the corpse.

Normally, given the level of the corpse, Tang Qi’s Special Ability could not analyze it, at most knowing some basic information.

But at this moment, a detailed and clear image was slowly forming.

[Curios: Diana’s Corpse.]

[State: Transforming.]

[Information Fragment One: Due to an accidental event that spanned hundreds of years, this Curios was formed under an extreme coincidence. Its essence is an “Immortal Corpse”, which has also obtained the force of a purified divine Origin. It was briefly endowed with Life by the Life Spell, standing between a Life Form and an inanimate object, still undergoing transformation, with an unpredictable final form.]

[Information Fragment Two: Her abilities from the current transformation include: Divine Domain, Absolute Purification, Combat Form, Life Devouring… But the extent of the abilities she can wield is limited by the user’s Level.]

[Information Fragment Three: Due to the Life Spell, the Corpse has automatically recognized its caster as its Master.]

…

The exceptional details of the Information Fragments almost made brilliant light spill from Tang Qi’s eyes.

“A Demigod-level Artifact? No, perhaps it is even more terrifying than that.”

Tang Qi murmured in his heart.

His greatest harvest from the Immortal Count’s Major Event, an unbelievable Curios.

Diana’s Corpse!

Because it was still “Transforming”, Tang Qi had almost forgotten about it during this time.

Only now did he suddenly remember, compared to Merit, this was his most powerful trump card at the moment.

Although, she still hasn’t finished transforming.

But for the current situation, Tang Qi felt it was already enough.

Diana’s Corpse had devoured all the Divinity, pure and purified divine Origin. Although not a life form, it already possessed the qualifications to enter the “Mysterious”, without the need for any so-called accumulation.

Tang Qi intended to use this exact point.

The Corpse as the “Key”, to unlock a backdoor within the Mysterious, and Tang Qi as the thief, entering it to find Eva’s soul, to assist, and to retreat successfully.

The plan seemed simple!

But Tang Qi didn’t act immediately; instead, he abruptly stood up, left the Library Tower, and headed straight for Professor Eva’s residence.
