Chapter 3288: Changing the path, hiding the sage

Audrey opened her mouth to say something. Ilsi raised her right hand and waved it, interrupting Audrey and speaking.

"Okay, Audrey, these things have little to do with you. Just study with peace of mind. The family will take care of these things!"

Audrey thought for a moment. It was true that she was only a sequence 8 mind reader now. She had no combat power. Even if she knew these things, it would be useless. She could only give up her original plan and leave the study obediently.

Ilsi watched Audrey's figure disappear in the study, and then walked to the window again. His eyes penetrated countless spaces and looked at the meteorite above the woods. A figure was constantly jumping. Although he came to the flames above the meteorite through some extraordinary items and avoided the bombardment of the meteorite, if no one rescued him, his weak body would be smashed into a pulp and die miserably.

"Bold, careful, and thick-skinned, no wonder he is doing better than Emperor Roselle!"

Ilsi commented on Klein's performance in a cold voice, his eyes were deep and quiet, and it was impossible to guess what he was thinking. It was like a bottomless abyss, exuding a dangerous atmosphere.

"Swish!"

Suddenly, another figure appeared in Ilsi's sight. At the critical moment, he reached out and grabbed Klein who was about to fall, saving his life.

The figure was of medium build, bronze skin, wearing a black long dress and a half-high silk hat. He had a pair of brown eyes that revealed vicissitudes of life, and his facial features were quite soft. There was a small black mole under his right ear.

"Death Archon, Axz!"

Ilsi's pupils shrank slightly. He knew a little about this person. He was worthy of being Klein's early backer, the old grandfather, who saved the protagonist at a critical moment.

Axz Eggers, the son of the god of death. Because of the characteristics of the undead, they die and resurrect once every 60 years, and forget most of their past memories, and constantly search for past memories in these reincarnations. He met Klein when he was teaching the history department of Hoyi University, and became friends with him because he reminded Klein of his fate.

Ilsi felt a slight vibration coming from under his feet, several meteorites hit the ground, the forest was completely destroyed, and a red mushroom cloud rose, magnificent and amazing.

"Aleshuhod's pen is indeed extraordinary. It can even change the time when the meteorite lands. No wonder it can be rated as a level 0 seal!"

"Azik Eggers obviously has not recovered all his memories and strength. He tried to travel with the help of the spirit world and the star world at this time, but it happened to have problems due to the hidden dangers in this area. So, he and Sherlock Moriarty fell not far from Ins Zangwill and his friends."

A feather pen moved again, and beautiful words appeared on the paper, dominating the fate of Klein and Azik, making them fall around Ins Zangwill, and a war is about to happen.

Ilsi retracted his gaze, his face calm, the gold-rimmed glasses emitting a distant red light, shining on his face, the light and shadow were mottled, extremely mysterious.

"It's time for me to make a decision. The top of the path of the universalist has been occupied. The god of steam and machinery blocked my way forward!"

"If I am given time, I have the confidence to push this god off the throne and replace him as the perfect one, but now the end of the world is approaching, there is not so much time for me to plan, I can only change the path!"

Ilsi pushed the gold-rimmed glasses that slid up and down his nose with his fingers, and a firm look appeared on his face. He always took one step and looked ten steps ahead when doing things. He was prepared for this situation and had a backup plan.

"Both the Universalist Path and the Secret Peer Path are knowledge paths, which represent two sides of knowledge. I can switch to the Secret Peer Path and achieve Sequence 0!"

Ilsi had read almost all of Emperor Roselle's diaries. At that time, Emperor Roselle also changed his path from the Universalist Path to the Secret Peer. In the end, he did not achieve the Sequence 0 Hermit of this path, but switched to the Black Emperor. Therefore, the top of the Secret Peer Path is still hanging, which can allow Ilsi to achieve the realm of God.

Ilsi, who had made up his mind, did not hesitate at all. He left the study and came to the laboratory. He refined a potion that flashed with dark light and exuded a fatal temptation. He swallowed it without hesitation. The extraordinary characteristics contained in the potion began to take effect. The blood in his body began to boil, but his body felt a chill. An endless torrent of information poured into his mind. The terrifying knowledge and information contained in it was enough to make a Beyonder's head explode.

Ilsi's ears were once again filled with whispers, but this time they were different from before. These whispers contained countless knowledge, which was poured into his mind. They were all mystical knowledge. His spirit body digested this knowledge eagerly, without any discomfort, but instead felt a sense of happiness like a fish in water.

"Hidden Sage? His knowledge infusion is a fatal danger to others. If they cannot digest this knowledge, they will be contaminated by it, completely out of control, and turned into a monster. But for me, it is a timely help and icing on the cake. It is really suitable and can help me advance to Sequence 0 faster!"

Ilsi smiled faintly, the sage potion in his body was being digested quickly. He felt his power increasing, countless knowledge was absorbed and digested by him, and even the knowledge infused by the hidden sage was too little for him. He began to actively seize knowledge and constantly improve his understanding of extraordinary ways.

The hidden sage is an impersonal god believed by the Moss Ascetic Order. Although the hidden sage is called a god, it is closer to an idea, a natural law. The Moss Ascetic Order believes that everything is a number, and the hidden sage is the incarnation of the spiritual number. They also follow the belief that knowledge is supreme and regard the hidden sage as knowledge itself.

The early Moss Ascetic Order was a very respected organization, founded by several humans who had seen the blasphemous slate, and had a good relationship with major churches. The members of this organization used asceticism to fight against loss of control, resolve the effects of the residual potion, and strictly keep secrets, adhere to morality and precepts, and believe that people will continue to reincarnate after death. It is a relatively positive organization.

However, later, the Moss Ascetic Order degenerated into an evil organization. The reason was very simple. The god they believed in, the Hidden Sage, came to life and became a personified evil god.

A bright light flashed in Ilsi's deep eyes, and he recalled the description of the Moss Ascetic Order and the Hidden Sage by Emperor Roselle.

"The members of the Moss Ascetic Order all believe that everything is numbered and they pursue knowledge itself."

"But it is not them who are pursuing knowledge, but knowledge that is pursuing them. The Hidden Sage is knowledge itself. He is pursuing them, pursuing every member of the Moss Ascetic Order. When a lot of knowledge is poured in, but they cannot be digested and mastered quickly, they will be out of control. They either let go of their mental defenses and accept the transformation of the Hidden Sage, or support themselves with perseverance. If they can't hold on, they will turn into monsters."

Ilsi looked up above himself, and a pair of cold and ruthless eyes appeared. This pair of eyes was illusory and transparent, without eyelashes, and was staring at him. It seemed to contain endless madness and evil. Countless knowledge information poured out of his eyes and poured into his body.

Ilsi's expression changed, cold and ruthless, high and mighty, with a terrifying aura of transcendence spreading around him, rushing towards the transparent and illusory eyes.

The eyes of the Hidden Sage blinked a few times quickly, and the void seemed to turn into the surface of the water, rippling layers of waves, trying to block the terrifying aura emitted by Ilsi.

It was useless. This aura ignored the obstruction of space and directly poured into the eyes. The Hidden Sage was immediately severely injured, and black blood flowed from his eyes. It was evil and terrifying, containing countless mystical knowledge, which was forcibly digested and swallowed by Ilsi. The whispers in the void became more and more crazy and sharp, making people extremely irritated.

Ilsi's spirit shone brightly, and his mind was like an unshakable Mount Sumeru. He allowed these whispers to impact him without any influence. He calmly stared at the strange and gloomy eyes and continued to digest and control the mystical knowledge that He poured in. He seemed to be the embodiment of wisdom. No matter how magnificent the knowledge was, he instantly understood and comprehended it, which increased his digestion speed of the potion. In just a few minutes, he completely digested the sage potion and successfully consolidated his strength as a Sequence 2.

"I have successfully been promoted to an angel. In the future, the Hall family can also be called an angel family, not inferior to the Augustus family!"

Angels refer to extraordinary people of Sequence 2 and Sequence 1. They are already quite close to the position of true gods. They have all kinds of strange characteristics and can even affect lower-sequence people in this path to a certain extent within a certain range. They are big figures standing at the top of the real world. In all major churches, only the pope, the pontiff, the patriarch, and some legendary ascetics are the real angels walking on the ground.

Seeing that he could not do anything to Ilsi, the Hidden Sage blinked his eyes quickly, and the space was like ripples on the water, and disappeared without a trace.

Ilsi retracted his gaze, and his thousands of thoughts surged. He carefully analyzed the information and details of the Hidden Sage. He was silent for a long time before speaking.

"The Hidden Sage is indeed not a Sequence 0 hermit as recorded by Emperor Roselle. It is just the conceptualization of the uniqueness of the Secret Peeping Man's path. Later, due to some accidents, it developed spiritual intelligence and was completely awakened. Therefore, the Sequence 1 and Sequence 0 of this path are still empty!"

"It seems that after I am promoted to the Knowledge Emperor of Sequence 1, I can start to devour the Hidden Sage, obtain the uniqueness of the Secret Peeping Man's path, and achieve the rank of Angel King!"

If a Sequence 1 Beyonder wants to become an Angel King, he needs to take two Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics, or take one Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic plus the uniqueness of this path.

Ilsi secretly planned his own promotion route, with a clear plan, as if he regarded the Hidden Sage as something in his pocket, and he seemed extremely confident.

In the spirit world, everything around was madly retreating, the scenery was distorted and blurred, and it was as if one had fallen into an oil painting. Everything was so unreal.

Klein felt the rare journey through the spirit world and tightly grasped Mr. Ackers' hand. He felt the other's palm trembling slightly, as if it was very strenuous. A strong sense of weightlessness surged into his heart, and his body began to fall madly. His body kept spinning during the fall, and the strong dizziness made him want to vomit, and he couldn't think for a long time.

The red, black, yellow, and white colors around him faded quickly, and Klein finally landed on solid ground. He lay on the ground, his head buzzing, and his head ached. It was obvious that the experience of traveling through the spirit world this time was not very good and unbearable.

Klein paused for a moment, and the golden stars in his eyes had not completely dissipated. He barely had some spare energy to observe the surrounding environment. His eyes swept over. On the left was a dark valley with no bottom, just like the devil's abyss in the legend. On the right was a gray stone rock wall that spread upwards, which seemed to support the entire area.

There was no sunshine, no clouds, and even no air flowing here. Everything seemed so dull and rigid, without any vitality, which made people feel an inexplicable depression. Only a faint light was flickering, which was the luminous moss growing in the dark and damp corners. Darkness and depth were the main colors of this place.

Klein supported himself with his hands and climbed up from the ground. He then found a stone-paved road under his feet. It was neat and flat, enough for two carriages to run side by side. It was obviously not formed naturally. One end of the road went deep into the dark valley, and the other end spiraled up and climbed up the towering rock wall. A corner of the building exposed in the rock wall could be seen faintly.

"It seems that Mr. Akzi and I have fallen into an ancient relic!"

Klein's mind was enlightened, his eyes slightly fluctuated, and he looked at Akzi on the side, waiting for the other party's action.

"You leave here first and go up!"

At this time, Akzi's face was gloomy and solemn, his eyes locked on a void, and he said to Klein in a deep voice.

Klein was stunned when he heard the words, and his eyes followed the other party's line of sight. The empty void changed, shining, and a bronze door emerged, which looked a little illusory. The door was extremely heavy, with countless strange patterns and unknown symbolic symbols on the surface.

With a creak, the door cracked open. Pale arms stretched out one after another, with bright blood flowing. There were also dark green vines with baby faces and slippery tentacles with bulging eyes. They were weird and gloomy, making people feel terrified.

The door continued to open, and a figure appeared in Klein's sight. The crazy arms, vines and tentacles instantly quieted down and stuck to the ground, as if surrendering to the figure.

The figure was wearing a pure black clergy robe, and his facial features were like classical sculptures, deep and clear. His hair was dark gold, his eyes were dark blue, his nose was high, and he wore a soft hat that old people liked. His temples didn't match his middle-aged appearance very well, and they were a little white.

Klein stared at the other person's lost eye, and the seeds of hatred in his heart began to sprout and grow rapidly. The name of this person was engraved in his mind.

"Ins Zangwill!"

The wielder of the 008 seal, who directed the Tingen incident and severely damaged the Nightwatchers, the former archbishop of the Church of the Goddess of Night, a demigod and half-human being.

Klein was not impulsive, and turned around very calmly and ran madly towards the top of the road. He did not disobey Azik's words. If the Sequence 6 continued to stay here, it would only become a burden and affect Azik's battle.

Klein ran with all his strength, clenched his teeth, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. His chest felt hot. He bypassed the cliff and entered the dark corridor with a dome. There were many mottled murals on the walls on both sides.

Suddenly, a sacred and majestic word came from behind, echoing in Klein's ears.

"Teleportation is prohibited here!"

At some point, a man with a golden mask on his face appeared in the air next to Ins Zangwill, slowly opened his mouth, and imposed restrictions on this space.

Klein didn't care about anything else and entered the hall in front. He felt someone in front of him, and the muscles on his face twisted and changed rapidly.

Klein's appearance had changed dramatically. He looked middle-aged, with dark golden hair, a high nose bridge, dark blue pupils, and one eye, exactly the same as Ins Zangwill outside.

Klein looked at the guard in the hall, with a gloomy look flashing in his one eye, like a venomous snake hiding in the darkness, and asked preemptively.

"Someone sneaked in, I'm searching for the other party's traces, have you seen any strangers?"

"Mr. Ins Zangwill, we didn't find anything!"

The leading guard glanced at Klein's face, quickly lowered his head respectfully, and answered in a low voice.

Klein snorted angrily, continued to walk forward, passed the guard, and walked out of the hall. The whole process did not reveal the slightest flaw, exuding the majesty of a superior. No one suspected that Ins Zangwill in front of him was a faceless man in disguise.

With the ability of the faceless man, Klein quickly passed the three checkpoints and came to the last guard checkpoint at the end of the building. He did not go out rashly, but hid in an inconspicuous dark corner and peeked.

A blue light gate stood on the ground. Someone left here through the light gate. This should be the exit.

"People who leave need to show their emblems to pass through the light gate. It's a bit troublesome!"

Klein thought secretly, but walked out of the corner without any hesitation and came to the guard. A low voice sounded.

"Something happened outside. I need to leave here to deal with it!"

The guard stretched out his hand to stop Klein, looking businesslike and indifferent.

"Mr. Ins Zangwill, where is your pass?"

"Don't waste my time, hurry up!"

Klein was not panicked. He took out a crest from his pocket and handed it to the guard. His calm appearance made the guard relax his vigilance and look down at the crest in his hand.

Klein took this opportunity to pounce forward, like an arrow shot out, and went straight into the blue light gate and disappeared in front of the guard.

The crest in the guard's hand suddenly changed and turned into a piece of paper with a blessing on it.

"Happy New Year!"

On the other side, Ins Zangwill looked at Mr. Azik in front of him with vigilance. His opponent was a death archon with the characteristics of an undead, which was very difficult to deal with. However, he was not too afraid because he had a demigod helper beside him. With two against one, they had the advantage.

Ins Zangwill's eyes moved slightly and saw the No. 008 seal coming out of his pocket and writing and drawing on the rock wall beside him, which made his expression change drastically.
