Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 176 Promotion, "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Records·Furnace·Foundation Building"!

Lin Xia was immersed in reading the forbidden book, and time passed very quickly.

Half an hour passed.

An hour passed.

Two hours passed...

Two professors in a mysterious space.

Dean Sprout suddenly said: "Lin Xia, time has passed a long time, right?"

Professor McGonagall looked down at the magic clock, "Two hours have passed here, but it's hard to say for her. That space is very strange. It may be slower than ours, or even faster than ours."

The dean looked at McGonagall, hesitant to speak: "Aren't you afraid that she will be unlucky and encounter a space with a very slow flow of time, and miss the exchange in France?"

She has seen students say that they only read the forbidden book for two hours, but the students came out a month later.

This reading time created the longest record of reading banned books in Hogwarts.

Of course, there are also cases where time flows very quickly. The little wizard felt that he had read for a week, but he came out in an hour.

Professor McGonagall said seriously, "Sprout, I do value the exchange of Transfiguration Today, but I think Lin Xia's future will not be limited to this exchange.

This is just to add a brick to her resume. In this case, why should I care so much? In comparison, reading the banned book is more important than the Transfiguration competition."

Professor McGonagall has taught for many years.

She knows that students are divided into several types, and Lin Xia's talent is definitely the best.

For excellent students, various awards are just icing on the cake, and will not affect her continued excellence. It doesn't matter to her whether she wins the award or not.

Even if she doesn't win an award, it can't cover up her talent in research.

But for some students, perhaps winning an important award is already a relatively important resume in life.

For example, Cedric.

In addition to the Transfiguration Award, he may really never win any other awards, so she will be more strict with Cedric.

For different students, McGonagall uses different methods.

For example, for Lin Xia, she lets her research casually.

Originally, Mag was still thinking about whether to give her a Transfiguration class, but Lin Xia followed suit and said that she wanted to read the forbidden book.

Is there anything else that can help you understand the essence of magic better than the forbidden book?

Nothing.

On the other hand, Lin Xia had a new experience when reading the forbidden book.

At first, it was fine, and there were no accidents in the forbidden book.

But as the content continued to deepen, and the spirit was constantly depleted, even though Lin Xia felt that her spirit was still good, something indescribable had appeared around the forbidden book.

At first, she heard a whisper in her ear.

The whisper was not talking nonsense, but rather a spell in an orderly manner.

Just listening to it, people feel that this spell has a very powerful power.

Lin Xia calmed her mind and ignored those sounds.

Gradually, the mumbling disappeared, and a rustling sound came again, as if some insects were crawling up her legs.

But Lin Xia knew that all these were illusions and ignored them.

After a while, the illusion appeared directly on the book!

Lin Xia had just finished reading a page and was mentally exhausted. When she turned to a new page, a white ghost suddenly appeared in front of her.

This ghost appeared in the form of a skull!

Lin Xia: ...

I'm afraid it's not that scary, but it must have been frightened.

This time, her mind was in a trance, as if the forbidden book had spotted an opportunity, and more and more ghosts appeared.

But the same method only worked once.

Lin Xia was not frightened again, and then the forbidden book returned to a calm state and fell silent.

On the contrary, Lin Xia became more energetic after such a scare.

She became more and more focused, and did not notice that the space she was in was constantly twisting and collapsing, and some parts showed signs of virtualization.

At the same time, the forbidden book began to fade from the cover, and the words disappeared little by little, but the speed of disappearance was very slow, and Lin Xia was reading the ones at the back.

After the space began to have problems, the two professors became nervous.

Dean Sprout asked, "How many hours have passed now?"

Professor McGonagall said slowly, "Only 5 hours, how come the space has shrunk so much."

The Dean worriedly said, "Can the three props we prepared for her maintain their original time when the space changes drastically?"

Professor McGonagall looked solemn, "It's hard to say. I think we have to apply for external assistance, or perhaps urgent intervention."

The Dean pondered for a moment and shook his head, "No, once we apply for off-site assistance, Lin Xia's reading of the banned book will also be interrupted. Although the space has shrunk greatly now, we have detected that Lin Xia's mental state is extremely calm.

In other words, she has not been affected at all. Since she is in a normal reading state, let's wait and see."

Professor McGonagall agreed, "Okay!"

"But if her mind fluctuates, we must intervene immediately to pull her out. This space is too dangerous."

Time passed by minute by minute, and Lin Xia did not know the changes in the reading space.

After reading in depth.

At a certain moment, she realized that she had come to a strange space, and she could sense that this space had no ill will towards her.

Instead, the space seems to be the banned book itself.

She feels the space is familiar to her.

A voice sounded in the bottom of my heart——

"Little wizard, congratulations on passing the test. You can truly see how magic and magic are formed, trace their true origins, and step into the established past."

Lin Xia persisted in the small space for another five hours.

After she finished watching all the displays in the space, the space suddenly shattered. Lin Xia came back to her senses and found that the space she was in was about to turn into nothingness!

But at this critical moment, her body was suddenly pulled by some strong suction force, breaking open the space, and there was a twisting and rotating feeling as if she was being stuffed into a pipe.

This feeling is like being apparated by someone, but it is far more uncomfortable than apparating.

It spans many levels of space, not just the same level of space.

Lin Xia appeared in front of the two professors. After a long period of pulling, his face was a little pale.

She looked up and suddenly realized that she was back in the library.

Lin Xia asked in confusion: "Professor, what happened?"

Professor McGonagall replied: "It's not a big deal. Every time you read a banned book, various strange phenomena will occur, and the space collapse you encountered is a more dangerous one, but we have been observing your mind and found that you He was very calm, so he didn’t pull you back.”

The dean took over: "Later I found that the space you were in was about to be broken, so we both used magic to bring you back."

She looked Lin Xia up and down, her eyes filled with happiness.

Even she felt that the scene just now was very dangerous. Lin Xia was almost buried with the destroyed space!

If she had known that space would collapse so quickly at that time, she should have promised Professor McGonagall and quickly applied for off-site rescue.

Lin Xia suddenly realized: "So that's what happened."

Professor McGonagall said: "You have been in the forbidden book area for a day. From the look on your face, you should have learned a lot."

She changed her words and said, "But little wizard, now you should go back and have a good rest and sort out what you have gained and learned."

Lin Xia thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back and rest first, and I'll report to you tomorrow."

Mag and Dean both nodded.

Giving a report is a routine matter, and the secret key is clearly stated, allowing the professor to better understand the little wizard's learning progress.

But Lin Xia had other guesses.

Maybe when reading forbidden books in the past, everyone only focused on ensuring the safety of the little wizard, but did not understand the knowledge the little wizard learned. As a result, the little wizard took risks and tried something, such as summoning a terrifying evil god.

Now I have to report every time I read a banned book.

The supervision is stricter than in the past, but it can also correct the young wizard's potentially dangerous thoughts.

Just like this, the little wizard's privacy is gone.

Lin Xia calmly returned to the golden wooden house. She was not opposed to this matter.

If it were anything else, she wouldn't be so sure, but when it came to giving reports...

I believe that no little wizard is more experienced in this aspect than her.

She has a sense of what should be said and what should not be said.

After a short rest, Lin Xia closed her eyes slightly and sorted out the knowledge she had learned in her mind, including reading online versions of banned books and reading physical books.

Physical books are banned and the teaching method is very strange.

Although there were no words in the space she entered, there were words everywhere, and every detail was filled with knowledge.

Looking back now, I still gain something.

Using the physical banned book as the skeleton and the online banned book as the flesh and blood, Lin Xia integrated all the knowledge he had learned in these days.

Suddenly, Lin Xia opened her eyes and summoned the Scale of Destiny!

When it comes to the foundation building period, the appearance of the balance of destiny has changed.

The originally bronze-colored rusty balance had a cyan rust stain that was almost too light to be noticed, revealing the original color of the balance.

Lin Xia noticed that the two ends of the scale were also different. The shape became wider and not as narrow as before.

In short, the whole thing seems to have been refined.

She took a deep breath and sacrificed everything she had learned these days to the scale of fate!

At the same time, all the knowledge in her mind about the foundation building chapter of "Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record", as well as other foundation building techniques of the family, were all thrown into the balance of fate.

This time, she felt a sharp pain in her head.

Her soul seemed to be torn apart by an invisible hand, and something was forcibly knocked out of her flesh and bone marrow.

Whatever you get, you must pay first.

It is both an opportunity and a shackle.

Lin Xia was sweating profusely and leaning against the wall, her face instantly turned pale, and she coughed violently, as if she wanted to cough out her lungs!

But the pain only lasted a few seconds.

A steady stream of feedback came, and through some invisible force, the knowledge sacrificed to the Balance of Destiny was completely integrated, and turned into a brand new foundation-building technique that was more suitable for the wizarding world -

"Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record·Melting Furnace·Foundation Building Chapter"!

Lin Xia stopped coughing.

Her eyesight became brighter and brighter, and she was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, so she didn't realize that she was losing her hair again.

But this is not a natural drop.

Instead, more and more new hair is replacing the old hair, and even the teeth are falling out and replaced with new ones.

This process was originally very painful, but it was suppressed by the warm and comfortable feedback from the balance of fate.

When Lin Xia came back to her senses from the ocean of knowledge, she found with a smile that her body had changed again.

But this time it was better, at least she didn't have to shed her skin again.

After resting for a long time these days, Lin Xia immediately started practicing after understanding the new exercises in the foundation-building chapter.

Unlike the practice in the bait-eating realm, the practice in the foundation-building realm gave her a feeling of embracing all rivers.

She had absorbed enough magic power in the bait-eating realm, but compared with the foundation-building realm, it was the difference between a small fish pond and a river.

The water in the small fish pond is limited, but the river is different. Its water is alive and can flow in continuously.

Lin Xia felt that the speed of her body absorbing magic power soared again, and she also felt the pleasure of the surge in magic power.

After only practicing for half an hour, she stopped practicing, feeling that her body could not withstand the infusion of this expanding magic power.

Before, she didn't absorb enough, and now she can't absorb it, which is also unique.

Lin Xia deliberately observed the magic power of the golden wooden house.

Even after her training, the magic power is still sufficient.

The golden wooden house is worthy of being called the Golden Supernatural!

I am afraid there are still secrets hidden in it that she does not know, and she cannot observe this secret now.

In addition to training, Lin Xia deliberately used the transformation technique to transform into a mirage worm.

Because it is a non-attribute magic creature, the mirage worm cannot bless her with any combat power in the early stage.

Many young wizards only slowly receive the power of non-attribute magic creatures after they become adults.

But Lin Xia's transformation this time was obviously different.

She observed the mirage worm in her hand.

Obviously, the transformation was still the same, and the action process was the same, but she just felt that the mirage worm became more vivid.

A bit strange.

She thought for a moment, dispersed the mirage worm, took out a huge stone from the ring, and transformed again. This time, it turned into a tiger, then a lion, a leopard...

After transforming several creatures, Lin Xia understood what was different -

The eyes of the animals were different!

It is said that eyes are the windows to the soul, and so are the creatures.

And the eyes of each creature she transformed were bright and energetic, adding a bit of momentum.

She controlled the tiger to grab the black iron stone, leaving several deep claw marks on the stone.

Lin Xia's eyes were deep, this kind of power... is much stronger than the previous transformation!

She thought for a moment, and transformed another mirage worm, lying on her shoulder.

Is this the influence of the foundation-building period, or is this magical creature exerting its strength?

Although the former is more likely, Lin Xia inexplicably feels that it is the latter.

At the beginning, she just followed her intuition and chose the mirage worm as the first magical creature to transform. Now it seems that this little thing is not simple.
