Creed of the heavens

Although it was very strange why Daniel didn't directly open the space passage to Karma Taj without hanging the ring, but Lu Xiao couldn't ask about this matter by revealing his details, so he could only silently follow Daniel and walk to Karma Taj.

Walking to a mountain flat with fine snow, Daniel waved his hands in a mysterious gesture, and golden chakras appeared on his wrists.

"open!"

Daniel's hands seemed to be holding the heavy door handle, and slowly moved to the sides.

A mountain road with completely different scenery from the surroundings gradually appeared in front of Lu Xiao. The quaint oriental-style ancient buildings were located at the far end of the mountain road. The lingering clouds and mists made the secret space in front of Lu Xiao look a bit fairy.

The warm air from inside the pass contrasts sharply with the frigid temperatures of the Himalayas.

A middle-aged bald woman in a yellow monk robe stood at the entrance of the mountain path with a smile, holding a folding fan in her hand and slowly fanning it, watching Daniel bring Lu Xiao to her.

Following Daniel's example, Lu Xiao bowed respectfully to the woman with his fists in his hands, and he recognized her identity at a glance.

Karma Taj is the supreme contemporary mage, the ancient one.

Chapter 76 The Ancient One's Trial

According to the information Lu Xiao consulted, the manga version of Gu Yi is a Tibetan Chinese, male, who has lived in seclusion in the Himalayas for a long time, and his real name is Yao.

In the movie version, the original setting is abandoned, not only changing Gu Yi's gender to female, but also describing her as a Celtic.

Even Kama Taj, no one knows the exact age of Gu Yi. She seems to be able to live forever. For thousands of years, she has taught countless generations of mages to guard Kama Taj and the mysterious world of the earth.

"Grandmaster"

Before Daniel finished speaking, Gu Yi smiled and waved the folding fan to him: "Daniel, I already know the whole story, thank you for your hard work, go and take care of your own business first."

Daniel was not surprised by Gu Yi's omniscience, he calmly saluted Gu Yi again, and finally began to "draw circles" in front of Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao had been looking forward to this miraculous teleportation spell, and when he saw Daniel starting to use the hanging ring to build a portal, his attention immediately turned to it.

Daniel stretched out his left hand wearing the hanging ring naturally, and his right hand drew a circle in mid-air at a rhythmic and uniform speed.

After about five circles, a few golden energy sparks gradually built the frame of the portal, and an oval-shaped passage leading to an unknown space appeared in front of Daniel.

Finally, he cupped his fists and bowed to Gu Yi, Daniel stepped into the other side of the passage, the energy sparks dissipated quickly, and the passage was also closed.

Lu Xiao's undisguised expression of surprise was indeed amazing.

Gu Yi didn't interrupt Lu Xiao's watching, and didn't ask until Daniel disappeared completely: "Young man named Lu Xiao, where are you from?"

The ancient pendant hung on Gu Yi's chest opened a gap, and the green light shone through it, and Gu Yi's eyes were also dyed the same color, and he looked at Lu Xiao with deep eyes.

Under the gaze of the supreme mage, Lu Xiao had a feeling of being completely seen through, and his strong sixth sense made him very uncomfortable with Gu Yi's peeping.

Fortunately, Gu Yi quickly withdrew his scrutiny gaze, and continued to say with a playful expression: "Interesting, your past can only be traced back to standing alone in the Himalayas, and there is only a blank space left after that."

"Never mind."

Gu Yi closed the folding fan indifferently, and knocked on his hand with a "snap".

"Kama Taj doesn't care about the past of the person who participated in the trial. I will confirm your character, moral character, and whether you have the qualifications to become a guardian of secret arts in the trial."

"Come with me."

Gu Yi turned around and waved his left arm. Daniel needed to concentrate and draw several circles to complete the space channel. There was almost no obstacle in Gu Yi's hands, and the teleportation was completed with a wave of his hand.

Moreover, Lu Xiao noticed a detail with her keen eyesight. Gu Yi didn't wear a hanging ring to assist in opening the space door.

At the other end of the portal is a simple hall. When Lu Xiao followed Gu Yi into the portal, Gu Yi, who was still in front of him just now, suddenly disappeared, and her voice came from behind Lu Xiao.

"The first trial begins, concentrate!"

Before Lu Xiao could react, a huge force suddenly came from behind him, and Lu Xiao subconsciously staggered two steps forward.

Lu Xiao, who was confused, turned around and questioned: "Master Gu Yi, what are you doing?"

Turning her head, Lu Xiao opened her mouth in surprise, and in his subjective line of sight saw another self sitting softly on the ground with Gu Yi's support.

"This"

Lu Xiao stretched out his hands in amazement and took a closer look. His whole body was glowing with a hazy strange light, which seemed a little translucent.

"Don't panic."

After placing Lu Xiao's body in place, Gu Yi calmly explained: "I pushed your soul out of the body, and now you are in the form of a soul."

"Trial [-], a test of soul strength and willpower."

Gu Yi sat cross-legged on the soft carpet, and explained to Lu Xiao seriously: "Many people misunderstand Kama Taj, they think we are mages or wizards."

"In fact, Karma Taj trains mystics, which is quite different from wizards who wield magic wands and cast spells in the Western tradition."

"Mystics need to absorb magic power from the endless universe to cast spells, but the universe we live in has too many temptations. If the soul strength and willpower are not firm enough, it is easy to be tempted to fall by some dark existence."

Gu Yi thoughtfully looked at Lu Xiao's soul body: "The soul body is solid, the will is firm, there is no panic after the soul and the body are separated, and the acceptance of unknown things is very high. You have passed this level."

Gu Yi's radiant right hand pulled towards Lu Xiao's soul, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Xiao's soul returned to his body.

Seeing Lu Xiao groping around in amazement, Gu Yi understood and gave him about a minute to adapt, before continuing: "Trial 1 is next."

Gu Yi took Lu Xiao's hand and opened the portal again. This time, the two of them appeared in front of a closed bronze gate.

The supreme mage waved her hands repeatedly, and multiple chakras were fused and reorganized in her complex gestures, and the same seal pattern appeared on the bronze gate in unison.

"crunch"

A strange gust of wind blew out from the open door, and Lu Xiao's sixth sense crazily issued a warning to him.

With one hand behind his back, Gu Yi stretched his hand towards the door and signaled to Lu Xiao, "Please come in, I hope you can pass the test of the Palace of Questioning Heart smoothly."

Ask Xindian?

The Chinese language is extensive and profound, and from the name, one can roughly guess the content of the second trial.

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Xiaogan stepped into the hall, the howling wind began to wrap around him.

Whispers full of negative emotions echoed in his ears, resentment, jealousy, anger, these unknown strange existences polluted Lu Xiao's heart with countless negative emotions.

Having experienced the world of Assassin's Creed, Lu Xiao's willpower has been well tempered in her daily understanding of Assassin's Creed.

Since it is a questioning test, as long as you stick to your heart and not be influenced by the surrounding voices, you should be able to pass this test smoothly.

Lu Xiao emptied her mind and entered a state of ethereal meditation, and many negative emotions in the Hall of Questioning Heart were excluded.

"Very well, you have passed the second trial."
