Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Mikel's consciousness first fell into a deep sleep.

After his body was controlled by that consciousness, his soul was not used to it and had a strong rejection reaction.

The inner soul realized much earlier than Mikel that the invading soul was malevolent.

However, Mikel's soul's resistance was far too weak!

With just a slight confrontation, it was completely outmatched and could only rely on slumber to withstand the attacks.

However, little did they know that the deep sleep gave that consciousness an opportunity to take advantage.

The consciousness seized control of Mikel's body at an extremely fast speed. Except for the most core consciousness hub, which was not taken over, it can be said that Mikel's entire body had fallen into the hands of that consciousness.

It can use this body to do whatever it wants.

Babling had absolutely no interest in Mick's body.

After taking control of her body, she continued to draw the magic runes.

This time, however, she did not continue to outline the remaining three circles from the pattern drawn by Mikel.

Instead, they drew an even bigger circle!

From the outer large circle to the middle circle region in which Mikel participated, there are even more complex inner three smaller circles.

All blank areas within the large circle must be filled in.

The demonic runes almost completely encroached upon the circle.

If Mikel were to regain consciousness and see this scene, he would realize that he had been deceived by the consciousness of Babling all along.

No wonder he found it very difficult to draw this magic rune array. Although the consciousness described it very simply, it took a lot of effort to actually draw it.

If his willpower hadn't far surpassed that of ordinary wizards, he wouldn't have been able to persevere.

What's more, he persisted for several days in a row?

It turns out that from the very beginning, Babuling had been quietly increasing the intensity of his workout.

This shows that Babling did not believe that Mikel alone could outline the complete magic rune array.

From the very beginning, she had the idea of ​​using his body to complete the magic rune array.

When Mikel was on the verge of a breakdown due to the increasing difficulty and the constant tension of sleeping in the wild, he actively sought help from that consciousness.

Babling would then act decisively.

Time flies, and a day and a night have passed in the blink of an eye.

Mikel's soul seemed to slowly awaken from the long passage of time, and he immediately felt the fatigue coming from his body.

The time perceived by the soul is not the same as the time perceived by the body.

It may have only been a day in the outside world, but the weariness inflicted on the soul feels like more than ten days.

So after Mikel woke up, he thought he had been asleep for at least half a month.

The fatigue radiating through his body stung his nerves, and Mikel's head throbbed.

He angrily questioned the consciousness that controlled his body.

"How long has it been since you rested? Why are you still drawing magic runes?"
I feel extremely exhausted. Stop! Stop now! If this continues, my body won't be able to take it!

He was feeling very irritable and anxious.

It was only then that Mikel realized how terrible it was when one's soul lost control of the body, like a lamb to the slaughter.

After his roar, Mikel discovered that the consciousness had not stopped controlling his body, and even ignored his roar.

He finally panicked and looked down at the magic runes being drawn.

I was stunned.

This magic rune array was completely different from what he had described before.

If what he described before was only a low-level version, then what he is describing now is undoubtedly a very high-level version.

Waves of fatigue washed over me, and my brain was throbbing – a sign of extreme exhaustion in both my physical and mental strength.

It's a pity there were no mirrors on site, otherwise I really wanted to see what I look like now, and I wonder how many days I haven't slept.

A surge of intense anger welled up inside Mikel.

You don't care about your own body, so you just go ahead and abuse it?!

"Stop! I told you to stop! I need to get some rest!"

Why didn't you tell me about such a complex magic rune array beforehand? I thought that as long as I finished drawing the remaining three inner rings, I could charge it for you.

Also, isn't it well past your recharging time? I need to get back control of my body!

However, no matter how his soul roared, the consciousness controlling his body seemed oblivious, as if it had completely blocked out his voice.

From the moment he relinquished control of his body, Mikel lost all value in Baburin's eyes and was labeled a fool.

She had met several travelers from other worlds, but none were as naive as Mikel.

He actually believed the words of a stranger's consciousness without ever verifying them, and he didn't offer any means to restrict her actions, let alone sign a contract with her!
With his level of intelligence, even if he could grow up safely at Hogwarts, he would definitely be bewitched by those cunning evil gods when he entered the battlefield of the world of evil gods.

Rather than letting those evil gods obtain the otherworldly energy core on his body and pinpoint the coordinates of his previous world, it would be better for her to capture it first.

At least she doesn't seem like those evil gods who like to invade the world at the drop of a hat.

She's more like a time traveler, traversing different dimensions and timelines, and then, at crucial moments, simply pushing that world forward.

Mikel's soul, trapped inside the body, gradually grew weary after yelling and screaming.

Even the rage of the soul requires energy, and the little energy he recovered from his slumber was simply not enough to sustain a massive outpouring of emotion.

He had not learned any soul-related magic, otherwise he could have used magic to protect himself.

Suddenly, at that moment, the idea of ​​a brain block surgery flashed through his mind.

This magic doesn't require a specific incantation; it simply involves forcing oneself into a calm emotional state.

No matter what happens, remain calm to prevent others from spying on you through mind control.

Whether it was the instinct for survival or a premonition, Mikel spontaneously activated his Occlumency technique.

Meanwhile, Babling, who was concentrating on drawing the magic runes, observed this, her face remaining expressionless.

She was as insignificant as an ant, her life and death hanging in the balance.

Since Mikel is trying so hard to live, what's wrong with letting him live?
After all, since she had contributed a spatial coordinate of another world to him, Babling wouldn't mind giving him a little energy after everything was completed, in order to replenish his depleted energy core of another world.

Even now, Mikel still couldn't figure out the purpose of that consciousness, and thought that it was drawing such a complex magic array to recharge itself.

Before he could react, that unfamiliar consciousness had been targeting his internal system from the very beginning. And the intricately detailed ancient demonic script it used was actually designed to strip away his system!
Lin Xia, on the other hand, had already shifted her focus from studying mysticism to learning advanced magic spells in the forbidden book area.

The spells and magic contained in the forbidden books are all ancient spells and magic, and the spells in them do not care whether they are black magic or not.

Magic, regardless of whether it is good or bad.

Valuable, meaningful, powerful, or unique in various ways... will all be included in the list of banned books.

In the past, there was no distinction between black wizards and white wizards; there were only those who acted extremely and those who acted mildly.

Whether they are black wizards or white wizards, they rely on strength and academic research to conquer each other.

Only by thoroughly studying the knowledge can one unleash greater power.

Where did those ancient magic spells come from?

It was also something that wizards researched and developed step by step.

Lin Xia began studying magic spells, and the "Nine Heavens Profound Yang Secret Record" that was silently circulating within him also showed a slight fluctuation.

The technique seemed to have acquired its own sentience. After absorbing the information from those magical arts, it automatically adjusted its subtle operating routes to better align with the energy expressed in the magical world.

And in this process, Lin Xia also discovered something unusual about the scales of fate.

It seemed to want to jump out and share this precious knowledge as well.

But Lin Xia completely ignored its pleading.

The scales of fate can make or break you.

As long as she doesn't use the scales for energy exchange, the scales can't bypass her and directly absorb massive amounts of energy; they can only absorb it on a small scale.

Lin Xia was not afraid of absorbing such a small amount of energy.

As the scales of fate grew stronger by absorbing small amounts of energy, Lin Xia believed that she would have grown to a much stronger level by then.

Then, resolving the remaining issues of the scales of fate should be quite simple.

The so-called difficulties are troubles that only arise when one's own strength is insufficient.

Once you become powerful enough, all the problems that once bothered you will be easily solved.

Suddenly, after flipping through a page on magic, Lin Xia's eyes darkened slightly.

The content of this Charmsology is related to the splitting of the soul, and it looks somewhat like the book that Voldemort read during his time at school.

But what she was reading was so different from what Voldemort was doing now?

This book is shrouded in the ravings of evil gods. If one is not careful, one may be bewitched by these evil gods and thus make mistakes in cultivation.

However, because Lin Xia's cultivation technique was constantly absorbing the evil god's ravings, it was able to restore the most original content of this book of magic spells.

Both books teach how to divide the soul, but Voldemort nearly sliced ​​his own soul into dozens of pieces, while the book tells Lin Xia that the soul can be divided a maximum of three times.

If this happens more than three times, it can lead to mental breakdown due to excessive splitting, and may also cause a backlash.

Even if it splits into three parts, it is still dangerous.

Even if the soul, which was divided into three parts, is found and returned to one part, it will leave irreversible trauma and split into three personalities.

But even if it gets to this point, there are ways to make up for it.

A series of remedies, such as taking special potions, can be used to heal the psychological trauma and minimize the damage.

However, the book also states that once a soul is split more than three times, even if Merlin were alive, he would not be able to save the wizard, but would instead turn him into a terrifying monster.

This kind of wizard could break down at any moment.

This collapse would also bring certain disasters to the magical world.

The reason this book explains things so clearly is because in ancient times, many ancient wizards had already attempted to study the forbidden realm of the soul.

These are data obtained through rigorous research.

Lin Xia raised an eyebrow. If Voldemort had read the original version, he certainly wouldn't have cut himself into so many pieces so easily.

That way, they won't fall into the trap of immortality.

The potion tutorial specifically addresses this trap at the very end.

The soul also has a life, although it can endure longer than the body, but it is not indefinite.

The so-called immortality is just a joke. Even a god of magic like Merlin could not guarantee immortality; they all disappeared into the long river of time.

But they can remain forever in the hearts of all wizards through other means.

Merlin may have disappeared, but his story will continue to circulate among wizards.

Legend has it that these deities did not remain in the magical world because the magical world could not contain their power, so they went to higher dimensions.

However, I have serious doubts about this. I personally believe that they are already dead, but their descendants want to mythologize them and add a layer of gilding to their own family.

That damned aristocratic system! The fact that such feudal and ignorant things can still exist in the magical world is the greatest wonder!

Lin Xia flipped to the last page, a hint of regret on her face.

She read it three times, but only found that even the soul has a limited lifespan.

However, the specific age limit for this restriction was not specified.

Was it because it wasn't researched back then, or is it because this kind of content can't be written in books?

She thought to herself: I hope to see it in other spellcasting studies. As long as there is a specific value, whether it is 200 years old or 300 years old, it can provide me with a good reference.

However, when Lin Xia thought of this, she thought of Nicolas Flamel, the alchemist who lived for five centuries.

Both his physical and spiritual life have reached 500 years, and this is not his limit.

If Master Nico hadn't grown weary of his long life and stopped producing Philosopher's Stones to further strengthen his own life force...

Then he might be able to reach the maximum lifespan that human wizards can achieve.

Lin Xia thought of the Philosopher's Stone, and then of her own "Magic Rune - Semi-Immortal" form.

She glanced at the shield artifact bound by the sealed runes, pondered for a moment, then gently raised her hand and directly generated a more complex array of runes at her fingertips than before.

Then, with a flick of his finger, the array of magical runes automatically flew to the outer edge of the shield-shaped artifact and merged into the operating golden array of magical runes.

Lin Xia added another layer of restraint.

Now, Professor McGonagall could no longer sense anything.

She could only vaguely sense that the space in the forbidden book area was relatively stable.

Because if it becomes unstable, the fragments of her soul will automatically activate under the force of the collapse, fulfilling their mission of bringing Lin Xia out. (End of Chapter)
