"That's … a book?"
Fang Xian looked at the sky. "Why didn't I see it in the Forbidden Book Area? Or … it's not in the Forbidden Book Area, but sealed somewhere deeper! "
The Godly Ascendant — Hopkins!
This was not a nickname that ordinary people could have.
It was just that, in a world like this, to have such a nickname made Fang Xian feel a little ironic.
His spiritual perception spread, and he immediately felt that this Godly Ascendant did not have a good ending.
However, there was no doubt that he had made great achievements on the path of Transcendence.
Even the books he had left behind all had 'power' that could counteract the influence of a Primordial Overlord that had leaked out the seal.
Fang Xian might have been able to do this when he was at his peak, but not now.
"But … a failure who tried to become a God? This kind of forbidden knowledge is what I want … "
Even if it was a path of failure, it would still give him more inspiration than the previous books.
Therefore, Fang Xian stretched out his right hand.
On his right palm, a silver line outlined in the void, forming the shape of the Secret Key of the Door.
He took a step forward and instantly disappeared into the void.
This imprint could actually be used in the dream world.
No!
In other words, it was more effective in dreams. Perhaps it was because the space in dreams could be changed more easily?
It did not even need to form a door at an angle to achieve teleportation.
In midair.
Fang Xian appeared next to the ball of light and glanced at it.
He probed with his spiritual perception and was immediately affected, and illusions appeared.
It was a young man with bright eyes that were as bright as stars, and his high forehead seemed to be full of wisdom.
Hopkins!
The young Hopkins was wearing a scholar's robe and seemed to be engaged in a heated debate. "Teacher … I disagree with your point of view. The Ancients are great and have power, but we humans, although ordinary, have wisdom. We can use wisdom to climb the path of God!"
…
The scene changed, and Hopkins had become a middle-aged man.
His hair was slightly white, but his expression was full of fanaticism. "I … Hopkins … obtained power comparable to the Ancients as a human … I am a godly ascender … Although there are greater existences above the Ancients, I can definitely stand shoulder to shoulder with them!"
…
Finally, it was his later years.
Hopkin's hair was disheveled, and his clothes were ragged. He looked like a crazy beggar.
He's crazy!
"No … I thought I could climb to godhood with my wisdom … but the truth tells me … I've been fooled by the ruler from the very beginning … What I wanted to prove was what he wanted me to prove. What I've researched is the technology of Chaos. My eagerness to become a god has instead hastened the arrival of the apocalypse? Haha … then what is the point of my existence, my hard work …? Haha … haha … "
The truth was too cruel, and it was beyond Hopkins's tolerance.
…
Three illusions flashed by quickly, followed by some indescribable knowledge.
Fang Xian didn't pay much attention.
This was because Clark Carter had already raised his silver gun with a roar.
He waved his hand in greeting, and his figure disappeared the moment the bullet arrived.
When he reappeared, Fang Xian had returned to his dormitory.
Lying on the bed, his hypostasis shook and began to detach.
After all, this was the dream of a primordial ruler!
If he didn't have the hypostasis of a level-six necromancer, he might not even be able to move, let alone explore.
Those investigators couldn't do anything about the dream of such a great existence. Every time they entered the dream, they had to use many auxiliary methods, which was much slower than him. That was why he had the opportunity to read.
…
In the real world.
Fang Xian opened his eyes.
The secret castle didn't collapse like the dream, but the sound of the waves outside the island seemed to be a little louder.
"It's just a bit of Nicolaia's power seeping out of the seal. The secret keeper should be able to solve it.
He closed his eyes and began to pretend to be asleep.
At the same time, he began to hypnotize himself to forget the name of Nicolaia.
This was a simple hypnosis technique. He hypnotized himself and replaced the word "Nicolaia" with another name, such as "the great existence under the deep sea."
Then he set up a symbol, which was also the "key" to open the memory, such as a snap of the fingers or a clench of the teeth.
In this way, the hypnotized person knew clearly that he had forgotten the name, and knew what it represented and what hidden danger it contained.
When he wanted to use it, he could directly use the key, make a symbolic gesture, and open the treasure.
"When I wake up tomorrow morning, the secret castle will probably be turned upside down. But I'd better digest tonight's gains first. Maybe this is the only chance."
Fang Xian began to recall the knowledge he had obtained through psychic channeling.
He first skipped over the three forbidden books. What he really cared about was the work of Hopkins, the Godly Ascendant.
This book didn't have a name, but Fang Xian gave it a name. It was The Book of Hopkin.
"Actually, it's more appropriate to call it The Book of Madness or The Confession of Hopkins …" Thinking of the ominous old age of Hopkins, Fang Xian thought with some amusement.
He remembered part of the knowledge in the book through psychic channeling.
If he were to read a book normally, the first thing that would come into his eyes would probably be the spells invented or modified by Hopkins.
They came from different orders and studied different supernatural creatures. It felt somewhat similar to the path that Fang Xian was taking now.
As for the effects of the spells, they were also varied. Most of them were to contact or summon various spawns.
In fact, if that was all, there wasn't much difference between The Book of Hopkins and The Black Emperor Book of the Nine Mysteries.
But in the middle of the book, there was some different content.
Hopkins was a crazy person. He used spells to control different spawns and began to study, enslave, dissect them, and conduct all kinds of evil transplantation experiments. It involved the modification of the human body. It was very bloody and crazy.
"They are stronger than us, but we can seize their power. This requires a certain level of flesh and blood technology, and a certain level of mental stamping, but humans can do it! "
Hopkins expressed his philosophy in one sentence. Probably, he used this kind of technology to become an existence comparable to the Ancient Ones.
However, in his later years, he, who had become somewhat crazy, set his eyes on the great existence above the Ancient Ones.
He even designed a forbidden ritual through a lot of research and experiments.
"Humans can't directly become gods, but they can seize gods. Even if it's the Ancient Ones, I will seize their authority …"
That was what Hopkins wrote at the end of the book.
And obviously, he failed …
