Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Lin Xia was very curious about this phenomenon.

The scale of fate on the back of his hand became hot again, almost unable to hold back and jumping out, urging Lin Xia to quickly open the box.

She practiced the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Records". This power is like a natural enemy to black bugs. Not only is she not afraid of black bugs, she can also use black bugs for practice.

The power of the evil world represented by the black bugs is like a tonic to her.

But Lin Xia slowed down at this moment.

She observed it for a long time, almost staring at the iron box to the point of carving a flower, before she slowly reached her hand towards the iron box and actively practiced her skills, radiating the power of the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Record".

As soon as the black bugs sensed the power of nature, they swarmed away.

However, their escape speed is far less than the speed of the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Record".

Before they could run far, these black insects were burned to death by this extremely yang force.

After a while, the surface of the iron box was cleaned thoroughly, as if it were brand new.

There are many delicate and complex patterns on the surface of the iron box, as well as many runes. Runes are a kind of ancient magic words, and the characters are all derived from magical creatures.

Lin Xia placed the iron box in her palm and looked at it for a long time, and roughly recognized what was written on it.

【Precious Treasure】

Judging from the runes used, this iron box is also an antique. It was at least several centuries ago and was used by nobility.

In the past few centuries, the nobles of the wizarding world occupied a very important position in the wizarding world and were a huge force in the wizarding world.

The skin on the back of his hand was burning again, but Lin Xia seemed not to feel it. He first stroked the iron box, and then cleaned it inside and out with the power of "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Record".

Then he slowly moved to the front of the iron box, where there was an exquisite little lock.

Generally, these iron boxes that look extremely precious are set with spells that prevent them from being unlocked. Using an unlocking spell is useless, and you must take out the corresponding key.

Some wizards who want to keep a secret will cast an automatic destruction spell.

As long as the correct key is not taken out, or the magic detects that the key is replaced by another method, the iron box will trigger an automatic destruction spell, and the items in the iron box will be destroyed.

The scale of fate on the back of the hand seemed to have sensed what was in the iron box and was very excited.

Even Lin Xia could feel the fanatical emotion it revealed.

The things that the Balance of Fate cares about are generally what Lin Xia needs.

But this time, Lin Xia had no interest in exploring the iron box. She focused all her attention on observing the scales of fate.

She was rewarded by the scales of fate and was able to withstand forces far beyond her physical body.

But at the same time, it also strengthened the scales of fate, to the point that the scales of fate could escape her control without her knowing.

If she hadn't come to Hogsmeade this time, there would be many powerful wizards and Death Eaters mixed in the village.

The rich magic power in them is the sacrifice that the Scales of Fate wants. With the stimulation of various other factors, the Scales of Fate would not appear so restless.

Because these powers are what it needs and desires, it easily exposes this trump card.

Lin Xia hesitated for a long time, and then casually said the unlocking spell - "Alaho Open."

After a while, Lin Xia heard a crisp "click" sound coming from the iron box.

She raised her eyebrows. There was no automatic destruction spell set?

Could it be that because time has passed too long, the spell cast on the iron box has lost its effect?

A thought flashed through Lin Xia's mind. Perhaps the owner of this iron box did not set up any counter spell against the unlocking spell at all.

Because he is strong enough and confident enough that no one can take away what belongs to him unless he gives it voluntarily.

The extreme arrogance created a lucky man many years later.

And she is undoubtedly the lucky one.

Lin Xia opened the iron box and paused. Inside was actually a little finger bone!

The moment she opened the iron box, the power hidden in the iron box surged out instantly. It was a very strong dark magic.

But this magical attribute is just a disguise. The power hidden deeper is the power of the evil god's world!

In Lin Xia's perception, this power was like a deep black hole, constantly spewing out the breath of the evil god's world, as if it was endless.

Suddenly, Lin Xia thought of two words——

Boundary point.

This little finger bone might be the boundary between the wizard world and the evil god world!
Because this is the boundary point, the power from the evil god's world is endless, because the little finger bone itself is at the junction of the two worlds.

Stimulated by the power of the evil god, the black bugs that were originally hiding in the soil suddenly gathered together as if they were bewitched.

Countless black insects longed for the power on the little finger bone. With great fear, they combined into a black human figure and reached out to grab the little finger bone.

Lin Xia activated his skills and waved his magic wand: "Shatter into pieces!"

Ordinary spells have no effect on black bugs, but spells with the power of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Records are the natural enemies of black bugs.

The power of Jiu Tian Xuan Yang lies not only in destruction, but also in devouring!
It can strengthen itself by devouring black bugs. The "shattered" spell is fired, and after hitting the bugs, it absorbs part of the bugs' power and becomes stronger and stronger.

The powerful magic and Xuan Yang force pressed down on the bugs, and the bugs were defeated again, scattered madly, and poured into the soil.

Only a small number of insects escaped, while most of them were burnt in the air and fell to the ground and turned into ashes.

The phantom of the scales of fate jumped out impatiently, urging Lin Xia to make the sacrifice quickly.

"Get its power and you will go further!"

“You need it!”

“We all need it!”

These thoughts flooded into Lin Xia's mind, replaying in her head over and over again.

She was unmoved and said calmly: "No, it's just that you need it, I don't."

She closed the iron box again and put it into the seamless retractable ring.

If it really is a magical thing like a "boundary point", it generally cannot be stored in a seamless telescopic ring. The ring will not be able to withstand the huge force, causing the space to collapse.

But the iron box is obviously not an ordinary item and can perfectly conceal the smell of the item.

Before it was opened, except for some special items, such as the "Balance of Fate" which was a strange object that was extremely sensitive to energy, even someone as perceptive as Lin Xia could not sense what was hidden in the iron box.

Therefore, the iron box can perfectly wrap the tailbone and hide its power.

This also explains why this huge power has been hidden under the station for so long without being discovered.

If the Death Eaters had not received some secret information and were going to attack the Hogsmeade station, she would not have found the bargain she has now. Based on this, Lin Xia tentatively put the iron box into the ring, but she did not expect that she succeeded in putting it in the first time.

The iron box disappeared, but the shadow of the scales of fate lingered for a long time.

It hovered in front of Lin Xia without communicating with her, as if silently accusing something.

Lin Xia ignored it, turned around and left.

As she became more and more adapted to the wizarding world and her ability in cultivation grew stronger, the need to use the Scales of Fate became less and less common.

It is no longer so indispensable.

Take cultivation for example. Although the Balance of Destiny allows her to withstand greater power, this is only a temporary surge in strength.

It will take her a long time to adapt to this surging power and transform it into her true strength.

The "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Record" could have absorbed the power of the evil god's world for cultivation long ago, but the absorption was just slower.

This power actually makes it easier for her to do things with ease, and she can adjust according to her own plan.

Therefore, the most useful function of the Scales of Destiny to her was almost half useless.

If he had not used the Scales of Destiny for sacrifice, he could also improve his own potential, otherwise Lin Xia would have planned not to use the Scales of Destiny long ago.

The White Fairy further purified her bloodline through many sacrifices.

As for the other ability of the Scales of Destiny to transform power into magical objects, it is the most useless to her.

It was somewhat useful at the beginning, but as her strength grew, the effect of the magic item became increasingly limited.

Many times, the power caused by using strange objects is not as strong as her casual attack, so what is the point of using strange objects?
However, it is very difficult for the Balance of Destiny to create some strange objects with special functions.

It is based on the power of the sacrifice, and then creates a strange object with a power similar to that of the sacrifice.

This requires her to selectively sacrifice things and then gather strength to create the strange object in the direction she wants.

However, this kind of manufacturing is full of uncertainty.

After all, strange objects in the same direction also have many different functions. Lin Xia didn’t think he was so lucky that he could win the bet just by making it once.

Therefore, the ability of the Scales of Fate to create strange objects is almost completely useless to her.

Thinking about this, Lin Xia discovered that even if she didn't have the Scales of Destiny, it wouldn't cause any trouble to her life, nor would it necessarily delay her progress in cultivation.

Lin Xia glanced at the shadow on the back of her hand, and the scales of fate saw her leave and returned to her body.

It seemed to sense Lin Xia's mood, and after a while, even the tattoo faded away.

Lin Xia left the underground station and walked to the ground, when she suddenly heard a loud sound of fireworks.

She looked up and narrowed her eyes. The fireworks were set off on the rooftop, which was once the rooftop they used for observation.

Obviously, something went wrong with Harry and the others, so they needed to use this method to call back the people who were scattered outside.

A thought quickly flashed through Lin Xia's mind, and she made the same decision as Draco. Instead of running to the rooftop, she went to the Shrieking Shack first.

She raised her wand and was about to cast Apparition, but suddenly stopped.

After counting on her fingers, she realized that it had not yet been more than an hour since she went back in time, which meant that she was still stuck in the past.

The past her did not come to the ground, nor did she hear the fireworks, so she did not go to the Shrieking Shack.

She also understood a little about the principles of the time converter, and knew that the smaller the impact on time and space, the smaller the backlash to wizards would be.

Going back to the past to correct a mistake may seem powerful, but in fact every wizard will pay a corresponding price.

It’s just that some wizards are so powerful that that cost can be easily offset.

A hint of deep thought flashed across Lin Xia's eyes, but judging from the personalities of Harry and the others, the price they would have to pay to use the time converter would definitely be high.

So she put away her wand and walked away with indifference in her eyes.

She was going to continue hunting Death Eaters!
On the other side, after Hermione and Draco lit the fireworks on the rooftop, they quickly put on their invisibility cloaks and hid in a narrow corner of the rooftop.

They did not leave the rooftop.

The moment the fireworks are set off, the past has already begun to be corrected.

Draco estimated that the phenomenon of "time and space reversal" would be noticed by some senior wizards.

Hermione had a very clear timing for lighting the fireworks, and if she lit them prematurely now, it might attract wizards who had noticed and come to observe.

For safety reasons, it is best for them not to go anywhere. Hiding on the rooftop is actually the safest place.

Draco was afraid that if they took any action, they would be discovered by the wizards.

After all, the invisibility cloak only concealed their bodies, but not the sound of their footsteps.

He never looked down upon any high-ranking wizard.

Hermione was very anxious. She would rather go to the Shrieking Shack after lighting the fireworks, see "Draco" go in with her own eyes, and then come out and go to Honeydukes, meet "them who had just come out of Honeydukes", and naturally save Ron in time.

But Draco insisted to stay first, and his reasons were well-founded. They had to suppress their impatience and put safety first.

Hermione looked outside for a long time but found nothing. She was about to speak up and complain about Draco's misjudgment, but no one came over.

Suddenly, the next second, an old wizard appeared on the rooftop through Apparition.

He appeared very abruptly in the middle of the rooftop and caught Hermione's sight.

All three of them became a little nervous.

Hermione tried to remember if any wizards had come to check on her previous fireworks displays.

Her memory told her with certainty - no!
Before, lighting fireworks would not attract wizards, but now lighting them in advance attracted them... Hermione's pupils shrank slightly, Draco was right.

This wizard was able to sense the flow of time and space, and discovered that the time points for lighting the fireworks were different, so he came to check it out.

If Ron and Harry were present, they would definitely recognize this wizard. This was Cassio who had helped him and Ron deal with the Death Eaters before!

Cassio glanced around the rooftop and found nothing except the firework that had already burned out.

He thought for a moment, waved his wand, and swung it downwards with a serious expression.

A burst of golden light flashed out from the magic wand, and then gradually expanded, like a ripple, taking the rooftop and the house below into the detection.

Soon, Cassio put away his wand.

He detected nothing.

He suddenly raised his head and felt a strong magical wave in the air, so he pointed the wand at himself and used "Apparition".

Another strange wizard appeared on the rooftop. At the same time, Cassio disappeared from the rooftop. (End of this chapter)
