I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic.

Chapter 588: Facing the Spirit Azus

This voice suddenly appeared in Li Si's ears, and Li Si was suddenly startled.

what's the situation?
This voice was the same as the voice of the white elephant before, but from the tone contained in the voice, Li Si could be sure that this was not the white elephant that was the guardian of the temple before.

What happened?

Li Si was secretly shocked.

This is where?

This is the Temple of Azuth!
Who could appear here quietly without causing even the slightest commotion?

Li Si was certain that the white elephant had a strength above the legendary level, and even teacher Stephens of [Flame of Judgment] would not be able to defeat it so easily.

In this temple, the fact is obvious.
Li Si raised his head and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

On the central altar of the temple, the white elephant that was originally standing there had disappeared. What appeared in front of Li Si was a handsome middle-aged man. Time seemed to be particularly kind to him, leaving only a few faint lines at the corners of his eyes, adding a bit of calmness and depth to his face.

His eyebrows and eyes were soft and warm, as if the warmest sunshine in spring gently fell on people's hearts. His eyes were particularly eye-catching, bright and deep, shining with wisdom and gentleness, as if he could see through the secrets of all things in the world.

He was wearing a simple yet elegant white robe, with fluttering sleeves and no dust on it. Although the robe looked plain, his left hand gently embraced a heavy book. The cover of the book was made of an unknown material, but the surface seemed to have starlight flowing, shimmering with a strange and charming luster.

What is particularly special is the parchment scroll logo inlaid in the center of the book. It is simple and mysterious, and the fine lines on the scroll are clearly visible, as if recording ancient and distant knowledge and wisdom. However, unlike the parchment scroll logo on the temple, there is also a quill pen logo next to the logo on the cover of this book.

The quill pen fluttered above the parchment scroll, as if it was constantly recording something.

It's really him!

No, it should be "Him"!
When he saw this person, Li Si instantly realized that his guess was correct.

Azuth, the god of fantasy and knowledge!

The appearance of this middle-aged man is exactly the same as the statue of Azus in the temple of the Church of Knowledge.

He just stood there quietly, as if he had reached an inexplicable harmony with the surrounding temples. His presence made people want to get closer and explore the infinite knowledge hidden behind his deep eyes and the books in his arms.

"It is an honor to meet you, Lord Azuth."

Li Si did not hesitate at all and bowed slightly to the man standing on the altar.

It was at this time that Li Si felt that he had a vague guess as to why the guardian white elephant was not seen in the Temple of Azus in his previous life.

It turns out that the white elephant in the temple should be the backup left by Azuth, the god of fantasy and knowledge. It is equivalent to the backup incarnation of this god, allowing him to descend quietly into the world of Gaia without attracting the attention of other beings.

No wonder this temple is still functioning normally even though it has been covered by the desert for so long and has not been abandoned by the god Azuth.

Thinking of this, Li Si's heart tightened.

Azus must have had some plans and arrangements for leaving the white elephant as the vehicle for his descent. Originally, the white elephant was staying well in the temple, but because the temple was suddenly entered by outsiders, Azus had to arrive early.

After all, just like in the previous life, although it was only discovered by adventurers, the people who came afterwards also included people from the Church of the Gods.

When the clergy of the Church of the Gods come to the Temple of Azus, they are likely to discover the extraordinary nature of the White Elephant.

By that time, the backup plan left by Azus would be noticed by other gods.

Once a trump card is discovered, it is no longer a trump card.

Therefore, it is very likely that in his previous life, Azus arrived early and left the temple because the temple was discovered by outsiders. This is why no one in his previous life knew that there was a white elephant guardian in the temple.

The only person who might have known about it in the previous life was Holland, but he also died soon in the conflict and no news was leaked.

Could it be that this god was behind Holland's incident?

Doesn't that mean it's my turn now?

Li Si's expression remained unchanged, but his brain was thinking rapidly.

The situation shouldn't be that bad. At least from Azus's tone just now, Li Si didn't sense any hostility, but rather a little curiosity.

Li Si didn't know much about the God of Knowledge, he just knew that he had been collecting all extraordinary knowledge for countless years.

Just like the temple beneath your feet that houses divine arts, Azus has built several similar ones in the Gaia world, housing the knowledge of other extraordinary professions that he has collected.

"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm to you."

The middle-aged man Azus walked down the altar with a smile, stood not far from Li Si, and looked Li Si up and down with curious eyes.

Even Azus, the god of knowledge, did not expect that Li Si would guess so many things just now.

But it's only partially true.

He came to the temple because the temple was entered by outsiders, and it was impossible to keep it secret for much longer.

In this case, there is no need to take the risk of letting the white elephant incarnation continue to stay in the temple. It is better to descend and leave directly.

After all, the fact that this white elephant incarnation could survive until now was beyond Azus's expectation.

Originally, Azus left the white elephant incarnation in this temple in case it could come in handy at some critical moment in the future.

Is there ever a more urgent time than now?
You must know that due to the changes in the Gaia world, all gods have lost the ability to predict and foresee the Gaia world.

This means that the gods now have almost no understanding of the changes in the Gaia world, and can only rely on their subordinate churches to collect intelligence.

But no matter which era wave the Gaia world is in, the main battlefield is in the Gaia world.

For example, the destruction of the Elf King's Court by Demogorgon caused a far more severe shock among the gods than within the Gaia world.

Almost all gods are trying their best to extend their power to the current Gaia world, and Azuth is no exception.

Since there is no way to hide it any longer, just use it directly!

Although Azus is not too eager to control more powerful power, he still needs to survive in this wave of the Gaia world era.

Originally, Azuth wanted to wait for the intruders in the temple to leave before descending into the white elephant incarnation.

After all, the divine knowledge in the temple was not too important to Him. What He desired was the process of obtaining and sharing knowledge. Monopoly was not His concept.

Not to mention that Li Si took advantage of the opportunity to learn all the divine knowledge here, Azus wouldn't care much if he packed it up and gave it to someone else.

But He discovered something interesting. That was the unique power that Li Si exuded while learning divine arts!

The ability to transcend professional limitations and learn and master knowledge seemed to be the little wizard's talent. Although it was enough to arouse Azuth's curiosity, it was not enough to make Him come early and show up to ask.

More importantly, it was the power of the extraordinary realm that Azus felt from Li Si.

If He had not mastered the priesthood of [Knowledge], He would not have noticed the difference in Li Si.

It was because of this discovery that Azus could not bear the urgency in his heart and his consciousness directly descended into the body of the white elephant incarnation.

"I wonder what you are talking about, Master Azus?"

Li Si's brain was working fast, wondering why Azus came early, and asked him directly.

This was the first time that Li Si faced the incarnation of a god alone and communicated with him.

In recent years, Li Si has come into contact with many incarnations of gods.

Lord of Beasts, Demon Prince Demogorgon, Elf God Corellon, etc.
But without exception, Li Si met these incarnations of great beings in the fierceness of battle, and had never communicated face to face with a god like he was doing now.

But Li Si was not too worried.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Azus could undoubtedly see through his identity as a World Tree Favored One. As a member of the righteous God camp, it was basically impossible for the other party to attack Li Si.

However, after feeling Azus's somewhat eager gaze, Li Si still felt a little hesitant.

No, boss?
How come you look like you've seen a treasure?
I'm not Tang Monk's flesh!
"As an arcane master, you are able to learn the magic in this temple. It is indeed quite special."

A smile appeared on Azus' face, and he looked at Li Si and spoke with a very kind attitude.

"It's because I have a special talent that I can learn these magic arts."

Li Si did not hide the existence of the talent of [Almighty], and paused for a moment before continuing:

"Lord Azus, I did use some means to circumvent your rule of equal exchange of knowledge, and I am willing to pay the price for it."

"Need not."

Azus shook his head, not taking it too seriously.

Over countless years, the extraordinary knowledge He has collected is vast enough to even fill an entire kingdom of God.

It can be said that most of the extraordinary professions have no secrets at all to Him. As long as the principle of equal exchange is followed, and it is His arrangement that judges the value, Azus does not care.

"I can sense the aura of the World Tree from you. Are you the newly appeared World Tree Blessed One, Lis Kane?"

Azus glanced at Li Si and said with a smile:

"He's still a little too young, but he's really good."

"I am overwhelmed to be favored by Lord Yggdrasil, the World Tree."

Li Si lowered his head slightly. It seemed that the identity of the World Tree's Favored One was indeed quite special in the eyes of the gods. In other words, most gods already knew of the existence of Li Si.

This was a rare honor in the eyes of others, but it brought some extra pressure to Li Si.

In the future, you must be more careful when dealing with matters involving the gods!
Li Si was not pleased with Azus's evaluation.

Even though he lived two lives as a human, Li Si's age combined was only equivalent to that of a child compared to Azus.

And excellent
Li Si suspected that Azus had discovered something else.

"Being able to learn all the divine arts in this temple, this has never happened before."

Azus looked at Li Si and nodded slightly.

"I'll just give you a small reward!"

After saying this, Azus opened the thick book that He was holding in His arms.

Bits of magical light emerged from the book and condensed into strange characters on the book that looked like a parchment scroll. They flew directly into Li Si's body before he could react.
-
Hey~
[You have received the gift from Azuth, the God of Fantasy and Knowledge!]
[Your extraordinary realm [Wisdom] takes effect!]
[You have gained some understanding of the extraordinary realm [Fantasy], and your control over it has improved!]
[Your control over the supernatural realm [Fantasy] has increased: First level·36% → Third level!]
[Your control over the extraordinary realm [Wisdom] has increased: Second level 93% → Third level!]——
Thanks to the knowledge bestowed by Azus, countless wonderful insights emerged in Li Si's mind, and his control over the extraordinary realms of [Fantasy] and [Wisdom] also increased rapidly, both reaching the triple perfection of the extraordinary realm.

As the control of the [Wisdom] field reaches the third level, it means that the only obstacle before Li Si can break through and become a legend is to reach the experience value of level 200.

At the current rate that Li Si is harvesting players through the skill store, he will be able to save enough within this month.

It won't be long before Li Si can officially achieve a transformation in his life level and step into a realm above legend.

It was obviously a good thing, but Li Si did not feel relieved at all and became nervous in an instant.

He didn't think that the god Azuth in front of him gave him such a gift just because he had learned all the divine arts in the temple.

If possible, Li Si would rather rely on his own "efforts" to improve his strength.

On the other side, after giving the gift, Azus has been paying attention to the changes in Li Si.

He controls many areas of priesthood, but the most important and powerful ones to him are [Fantasy] and [Knowledge].

There is no doubt that Azus was able to sense the extraordinary realm of [Fantasy] that Li Si had mastered, and it was still quite immature and had just stepped over the threshold.

But the other feeling is different!
The special aura of the domain on Li Si is closely related to the domain of [Knowledge], but it gives Azus a more noble and mysterious feeling.

How can this be?

You must know that the field of [knowledge] that Azus mastered has completely transformed into a priesthood, and no matter what, the field that Li Si mastered is ultimately just an extraordinary field.

Even though it is still very weak, how could its aura be more noble than that of the [Knowledge] priesthood?
Unless what Li Si mastered was not the field of [knowledge], but a more special existence.

After thinking about it, Azus only thought of one possibility.

For Li Si, there was nothing wrong with Azus's guess, he had almost guessed the result.

His [Wisdom] domain evolved from the [Knowledge] domain, which is equivalent to a superior substitute for the [Knowledge] domain. It is normal for Azus to have this feeling.

"In exchange for the same value, I need a promise from you, Li Si."

Azus looked at Li Si and laughed heartily for the first time.
