Chapter 491: Magic and Its Source

“Princess, I’ll go and repair the seal now,” Aristotle said to the princess. He then disappeared from where he was, leaving the beautiful lady standing there.
She looked at the big hole in the ground and muttered to herself, “I hope you can succeed.”
After saying that, she disappeared without a trace.
Rubbing his butt, Lei Luo stood up and looked at his surroundings. He was a little surprised, but also a little happy. Beside him were magic books that he had never seen before, especially the mysterious runes on them. Lei Luo was instantly immersed in them.
He didn’t care what happened to the old man on top, and immediately began to organize these books. After all, there were so many books, and this was a huge library. It contained all the magic books from the ancient magic empires, so Lei Luo wasn’t too surprised.
“Hello, welcome to the Royal Library. May I help you?”
A familiar figure appeared in front of him. Wasn’t this the sleeping woman from the “Time of God”? At that time, he had even flirted with that woman and was scolded by his teacher.
The first time he saw her, he was amazed. The second time he saw her, he felt that he only had her face in his heart. This was exactly the case for Lei Luo. However, he still woke up from the coughing sound of the woman in front of him.
“I want to copy all the books here. Is that okay?”
The woman in front of him asked in disbelief, “What did you say?”
“I said, I want to copy all the books here. Is that okay?”
The woman surrounded him and sized him up. It could be seen that the woman’s body was made of magic light, and the falling light fell on Lei Luo’s body.
“Hey, my name is Liz. I’m the librarian of this library. You look pretty talented. Did the old man ask you to come in?”
Looking at the female projection named Liz, Lei Luo quickly answered her question.
“My name is Lei Luo. As you can see, the old man named Aristotle let me in.”
The girl named Liz frowned and said, “It will probably take you ten years to learn all the magic here. Don’t you want to try?”
Lei Luo knew that it would take ten years, so he could only shake his head helplessly. He was about to start fighting the “Great Wall of Iron Blood,” so how could he spend so much time here? Besides, when the empire fell into chaos a few months later, he still had to complete his plan.
“Then there’s nothing I can do. Let me help you choose and see what magic can help you.”
The white dress fluttered in the air. In the blink of an eye, the cute girl disappeared. Lei Luo could only sit on the ground and read a mage’s notes that he had casually picked up. The author was Aristotle.
In his notebook, he introduced in detail the rank of a mage, as well as the promotion method that currently did not exist. There was a forbidden spell that made Lei Luo speechless. Using his own body as a magic container, by engraving a magic array on his own body, he could be extremely close to the source of magic.
The magic that was cast through this method would be greatly enhanced, and the speed of promotion would be even faster. The toughness of his body could even be comparable to that of a knight who specialized in martial arts. However, the taboo point was that anyone who used this method would not end well.
According to Aristotle in this book, it was because their magic affinity was not high enough, resulting in the backlash of the “root.” In Aristotle’s view, only those who had full magic affinity could use this method, only then could they truly reach the root. The body cast by this method was the Holy Grail, a perfect magic constitution.
The others could only be considered as the ‘False Holy Grail’ at most. Lei Luo knew that with his current constitution, he did not know when he would be able to use the “God’s space.” If this forbidden spell was really useful, he could use it in the future if by any chance he comes upon any misfortune.
“Liz, please bring me the Forbidden Spell ‘Holy Grail’ and the accompanying Magic Array,” Lei Luo said to Liz, who was deep in thought. At this moment, Liz was sitting on a stack of thick books. This was the most helpful book that she could think of for Lei Luo. There was a perfect training system of the ancient magic empire in this book.
“You really want to refine the ‘Holy Grail’? You should know that the last supermage who refined the Holy Grail, Scarlet, was dismembered by five horses in the end.”
Liz looked at Lei Luo with a shocked expression. This forbidden spell was not something that anyone could cultivate. It had a high requirement for magic affinity. Every mage who practiced the ‘Holy Grail’ eventually reached the realm of a supreme mage. It could be seen how high the requirements for this forbidden spell were.
“Stop talking. Time is too tight. Teach me how to do it first. I’ll slowly go out to try the rest.”
Seeing Liz’s hesitant expression, Lei Luo immediately took off all his clothes.
“You…you lecher. I’m not going to help you.”
Liz saw how Lei Luo was acting and instantly blushed. She quickly covered her eyes with her hand, leaving only a small gap to peek at Lei Luo’s figure.
Isn’t this like trying to steal a bell? Also, Lei Luo didn’t take off his underwear, but he was too excited.
“Come quickly, I’m in a hurry. You’re the librarian of this library. Won’t you help me?”
Hearing this, Liz’s face swelled up with anger. She said to him, “Come then, just don’t regret it.”
She floated to Lei Luo’s side and began to teach him how to draw magic arrays. It had to be said that Lei Luo’s magic attainments were very high. Liz only mentioned Lei Luo’s problem, and Lei Luo could immediately infer from it. Lei Luo adjusted his movements to the standards of ancient magic.
As more and more magic arrays appeared on Lei Luo’s body, his aura also became distant and undetectable, and it was as if he had left this world. Gradually, the environment around Lei Luo began to change as the magic array was perfected.
Lei Luo also began to become nervous. This was also the most crucial step of the forbidden spell, the Holy Grail. Seeing the source, he raised a question. According to this question, it could represent the degree of completion of the Holy Grail.
Liz could no longer see it. Her surroundings were filled with a vast white fog. Lei Luo did not go forward to explore. He just stayed where he was and waited for the source to arrive.
The runes on his body began to circulate, fusing Lei Luo’s body with the surrounding environment. One of his eyes was looking at him from afar with a complicated expression.
“Travelers who are pursuing the source, what is it?”
A voice came from an unknown direction. Lei Luo knew that the source was already by his side.
He cleared his throat and said to the front, “Who am I?”
The eye of the source was somewhat speechless. ‘How would I know who you are?’
However, he still took a careful look at Lei Luo’s body. After a while, he realized something.
This was…a Dharma God! A dharma god that should have died a long time ago!
