Since the sky was covered, the heavens began to show their holiness

Zhou Xian has always looked down upon the behavior of living off others. In his opinion, relying on others for support is simply a loss of the most basic dignity as a man. This behavior runs counter to the values ​​of independence, self-reliance, hard work and struggle that he upholds.

However, when he stood in this room full of books, the bookshelf in front of him was filled with precious magic books he had always dreamed of, from rare rule-based magic books to magic works on the seven elements. These were all magic books from the Magnolia Empire.

At this moment, Zhou Xian no longer cared about sticking to his previous principles. There were only two words left in his mind - it smells so good.

"Speaking of which, Zoe is pretty good except for her naughty personality."

Zhou Xian whispered to himself, his eyes sweeping across the towering bookshelves of the Imperial Library. The collection of books here is massive, almost including all the magic knowledge of the Yulan Continent from ancient times to the present, including magic spells, magic power application techniques, magic pattern analysis... everything. Only a magic country with a long history and profound heritage like the Yulan Empire has the ability to spend countless manpower, material resources, and financial resources to collect such a complete collection of precious magic books scattered all over the continent.

Zhou Xian knew that Zoe had made a great contribution to his ability to step into the Imperial Library, which was full of knowledge treasures, stand in front of the rows of bookshelves, and browse through these precious books. After all, he was just a foreigner from a foreign country. The Imperial Library had strict access control and many rules. If it weren't for the High Priest's order, with his identity, he would not even be able to get close to the door of the library, let alone browse freely.

"Wow, there are even books on necromancy. This saves me a lot of effort!"

Zhou Xian stared at the few mysterious books in the corner of the bookshelf. He was startled at first, but then his mouth curled up, unable to hide his joy. He had planned to find a necromancer to delve into the mysterious and bizarre necromancy, but he didn't expect to find the relevant books in the library of the Magnolia Empire without any effort.

Zhou Xian's eyes were full of irrepressible excitement, and he could not wait to reach out and pick up the book that contained the secrets of the magic of the dead. His fingers trembled slightly, and he slowly turned the pages, as if he was opening the door to a mysterious world. Standing next to the bookshelf, he read with full concentration, automatically blocking out all the noise from the outside world, and immersed in the complex runes, strange spells, and wonderful magic theories in the book.

Compared with other magic, the runes and spells of necromancy are difficult and obscure, and the control of magic power is also extremely special. It is difficult for ordinary magicians to get a glimpse of the tricks without professional guidance, and they often suffer setbacks and return empty-handed at the entry stage.

But Zhou Xian only glanced through the difficult book on necromancy. Those seemingly disorganized symbols and difficult-to-remember spells gradually became clear in his mind, and he also easily grasped the underlying logic and principles of magic.

He repeatedly studied the remaining basic books on the dead, which contained contents about the mobilization of soul power, the summoning and driving of dead souls. These were like heavenly books to ordinary magicians. After the mysterious veil was removed, it seemed as if there were no secrets in his eyes.

Zhou Xian gently closed the last book of Undead Magic in his hand, slowly put it back on the bookshelf, and turned his gaze to the life magic area on the side.

The scene before him was in stark contrast to the shelf of books on undead magic, which had only a handful of books, while the shelf of books on life magic was filled to the brim, with one book next to another, stacked layer upon layer, emitting a soft and warm glow, as if telling the miracle and power of life.

Zhou Xian thought about it for a moment and suddenly realized that after all, the high priest used life magic to comprehend the laws, break through the shackles and become a god. Over the long years, the high priest and his followers devoted themselves to research and accumulate inheritance. It is reasonable that such a rich collection of life magic books has been preserved. Zhou Xian's eyes wandered among the bookshelves, expecting to find precious books related to destruction and fate, but in the end he found nothing. He couldn't help but sigh and murmured to himself with a little regret: "It's a pity that there are no books related to destruction and fate."

But soon, he adjusted his mood and his expression returned to calm. He knew in his heart that the rules of destruction and fate were mysterious and unpredictable, far from being as traceable as other laws. He had to rely more on himself to comprehend through countless experiences and thoughts, to touch the rules hidden behind the world.

Zhou Xian's mouth corners slightly raised, his eyes gleaming with confidence, and he whispered to himself: "We are one step closer to the goal of eleven god clones."

Looking back on the past, he successfully mastered the seven elements of magic: earth, water, wind, fire, thunder, light, and darkness, with his extraordinary talent and "unremitting" efforts.

Now, in this imperial library, he has studied the magic of life and death in depth, and the territory of knowledge and power has been expanded again. Even more fortunately, in a previous wonderful opportunity, he actually comprehended a little bit of the rules of fate, although it was just a glimpse of the leopard, but it was also a step into the door.

Now, among the goals of the eleven god clones, the only one he had no idea about was the rule of destruction. However, he was not discouraged because he knew that there was someone who was proficient in this.

"After this trip to the Magnolia Empire, let's go to the Far East Prairie."

Zhou Xian was silently planning his next trip. After making up his mind, he no longer hesitated and reached out to gently take a book on life magic from the bookshelf. This was a rare opportunity, so he read it with full concentration, not missing any details. Lines of text unfolded before his eyes, leading him into the wonderful world of life magic.

The more Zhou Xian read, the more he was amazed. The rule of life was indeed one of the four supreme rules, containing endless mysteries and powerful power. If the high priest had not become a god with the help of life magic, it would have been difficult for him to touch the profound truth in his current situation. He swept his eyes across the bookshelf and found that most of the books were written by the high priest.

These works were clearly organized and provided a thorough analysis of the understanding of life magic. Starting from the most basic first-level magic, they explained in detail the principles of magic, the operation of magic power, and even powerful forbidden spells. All kinds of knowledge were included, as if they had opened a door for him to the palace of life magic, allowing him to immerse himself in it and become intoxicated.

I don't know how long time has passed quietly, Zhou Xian finally closed the last book about life magic in his hand and slowly put it back on the bookshelf. He paused for a moment, stretched his slightly stiff neck and shoulders, and his eyes fell on the dark magic book next to him.

Although he had dabbled in dark magic before, he had only been exposed to basic magic from level one to level seven, and his knowledge system was not complete. However, the books in front of him at this moment, from powerful forbidden spells to the most basic level one magic, had a wide variety of content.
