From Prisoner to Si Chen..

Chapter 492 Universe
This morning.

Gillan got up early.

After he finished washing up, he came out of the master bedroom, climbed the stairs, and went straight to the attic alchemy room.

After Jilan entered the attic, he locked the door, took off his bathrobe, walked to the window and pushed it open, then sat cross-legged in meditation facing the morning light and breeze outside.

He was only wearing a pair of loose silk trousers, with his upper body bare. His muscles were clearly defined, his body was perfectly shaped, and his skin was shiny, and he had obviously applied "lava ointment" to assist his practice.

After a round of meditation, the meditation method "Dream of Ten Thousand Flowers" in the perfect stage had a very strong conversion efficiency, which allowed Jilan's spiritual awareness to rise to a higher level again.

It was almost eight in the morning.

Gillan opened his eyes.

'panel.'

He secretly said.

Colorful, squirming words appeared before my eyes:
"..."

"Strength: 38."

"Agility: 38."

"Stamina: 40."

"Gnosis: 23."

“Spirituality: 33.”

"Mind: 50 (earthly threshold)."

"Mystery points remaining: 217."

Gillan looked at his panel and let out a long breath.

'My half-month of hard training is equivalent to nearly two years of accumulation for an average mystic. My "spiritual knowledge" and "spirituality" have each increased by 3 points, which is already a very remarkable achievement.'

He looked thoughtful.

I have a strong premonition in my heart that when the spiritual awareness reaches "25" points and the spirituality reaches "35" points, the basic requirements for promotion to the 6th level will be basically met.

Of course, Gillan could have achieved this goal in one go by simply consuming mysterious points, but he didn't do that.

One reason is that 7 points of endurance were added at the critical moment before, so the consumption of "attribute improvement" was too great. Now, each attribute improvement would cost thousands of points.

Adhering to the principle of saving as much as possible and using points at critical moments, Jilan plans to increase his "spiritual knowledge" and "spirituality" through conventional practice as much as possible.

Only use this ability when you really encounter a bottleneck.

Secondly, the 6th-order essence has not yet been deduced, and the key prerequisite of "leaving a rumor in the Corridor of the God's Hometown" has not been met, so it is useless even if the attributes meet the requirements.

Gillan stood up.

The ointment applied on the skin has been completely absorbed and it is no longer shiny and oily as it was at the beginning.

He walked slowly to the workbench, took out the glass beads stored in the "ether bubble", and then directly used "Colorful" to corrupt them.

A pile of glass beads on the table quickly turned into powder and disappeared.

On Jilan's panel, the mysterious points column quickly jumped from the original "217" to "7012".

Most of the glass beads disappeared, leaving only about a hundred. The eight with the most concentrated energy were also among them, and were not corrupted by Jilan.

He planned to keep these for a rainy day.

After doing this, Gillan took a deep breath.

I thought to myself:
'gorgeous! '

At the same time, he recalled the knowledge related to the secret sword technique "Universe Sword" in his mind.

The mysterious points that had soared to more than 7000 points quickly fell again, consuming a full 5000 points in one fell swoop, leaving only "2012" points.

And the "Universe Sword" taught to him by Teacher Pala finally entered the final stage of perfection that only existed in theory under the influence of "Colorful".

The final chapter: The Universe!
Gillan was shocked.

He opened his eyes, and there was a bright silver light flashing in his pupils, as if the starry sky and universe were in front of him.

Countless confusions in Jilan's mind were solved, and all the complicated sword moves and strength application techniques were integrated at this moment.

'I see! ’

He exclaimed in his heart.

The last chapter of "Sword of the Universe", like "Life Star Track" and "Dream of Flowers", was not even mastered by the founder Para Celsus himself.

The reason why this chapter only exists in theory is simple, because the human body cannot meet the minimum requirements for drawing a sword...

Clearly, Parra has big ambitions.

He tried to create a system that reached the pinnacle!
In this system, body-building techniques, meditation methods and secret sword techniques are not independent, but complement each other.

This can only be achieved if all three are perfected.

Especially as a secret sword technique to kill the enemy.

The last chapter of "Universe Sword" does not have more sword moves. On the contrary, it seems to return to its original simplicity, simplifying all the moves, leaving only two words -

"Rhythm"!
That is to mobilize the ultimate power hidden in the human body, combine spiritual knowledge, spirituality and physical body, and then use the secrets of astrology to carry out the most simple and unpretentious attack.

The trajectory of this slash is like the movement of a star, containing invisible rhythm, thus releasing terrifying energy.

That is the silver sword wind and sword light that can be seen with the naked eye.

However, the perfect "Sword of the Universe" is even more terrifying. It can easily reach the threshold of the earthly world, that is, the ultimate destructive power that the individual mystery can show in the material world.

Even, cutting through the void.

In this regard, Gillan thought of Teacher Pala.

The teacher had shown this strength in front of him more than once, swinging his sword to create a deep rift.

'But the teacher has not yet mastered the perfect "Universe Sword". The reason why he can do this is probably due to the "Philosopher's Sword" hidden in the cane! '

Gillan had an epiphany.

The "Philosopher's Sword" was once praised by the "Cruel King" as the sharpest sword in the world. It was cast from 18 "Philosopher's Stones" and contained unimaginable power.

"So, your ability to slash through the void relies on external objects, but I can do it just by myself?"

Gillan couldn't help but feel excited.

After completely mastering the "Universe Sword", he did not know how much his strength had improved.

But at least, without the "King's Arrival" state activated, the destructive power is definitely a qualitative improvement compared to before. …

...

Gillan called a hotline.

The inside of the metal microphone was glowing with the light of an alchemical array, and a card with a unique symbol engraved on it was attached to it.

After a little wait.

With a click, a man's hearty laughter came from the other end:

"Haha, good morning, Mr. Gillan, I'm glad to hear from you."

Jilan exchanged a few simple pleasantries with him, and then went straight to the point:
"Baron Opal, I would like to ask you for a favor."

"Huh?" The man was quite surprised. "Of course! Mr. Gillan, just tell me. I will do my best to help you as long as I can!"

"I want to collect the 6th-level secrets of the seven paths, including the Furnace Spiral and the Divine Spiral, except for February. I wonder if Baron Opal can help me acquire them?"

Gillan made his demands known.

Thanks to the generosity of the Führer, he is no longer short of money, and has plenty of gold Caesars and white cards on hand.

If you can use money to buy the secrets needed for deduction, then it is quite worth it.

But after a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, Baron Opal smiled bitterly and replied:
"This...Mr. Gilan, although I'm glad that you trust me so much, I'm really sorry. With my ability and channels, I really can't acquire such rare knowledge as the 6th-level secret."

"Even Baron Opal can't do anything about it?"

Ji Lan frowned slightly.

There was a sigh from the other end of the phone.

"Not only am I helpless, I believe that most black market traders in the mysterious field are also helpless... The sixth-level secret is only known by major secret religious societies and is basically not circulated in the market."

Baron Opal said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Jilan's heart sank.

But soon, after a few seconds of hesitation, the person on the other end of the phone added:
"However, Mr. Gillan, you can try to find the 'Solidification Bookstore'. They have most of the secrets of the world and definitely have what you need... However, this group of people are secretive and few people know about them."

"Well, I see."

Gillan thought about it.

"Thank you very much, Baron Opal."

"You're so polite."

There was a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone, and Jillian could even imagine the other party wiping his sweat with a handkerchief.

"I'm really ashamed that I couldn't help."

"Don't worry, I'm just asking."

Gillan chuckled twice.

After the hotline was hung up, he looked thoughtful.

"Solidified Bookstore..."

Murmuring, Jilan quickly thought of a person who might be able to help him find the location of this secret society.

That is the female owner of "Moran's Bookstore", Ms. Moran... To be precise, the sisters who share the name "Moran".

When I met Yaz Moran in Cockburn before, I got a clue from her that "Moran's Bookstore" was closely related to "Solidification Bookstore".

Perhaps, the bookstore is the stronghold.

Thinking of this, Jilan left the alchemy room directly without even having breakfast. After giving a few instructions to old Charles, he drove out.

He headed straight for the East Muse.

The silver car drove through the streets of the central area and entered the eastern part of the capital via the Third Bridge.

Soon, Jilan parked the car at the edge of a commercial street. A few steps ahead was a bookstore.

He had been here once and bought a lot of books on linguistics and acting.

The sign for "Moran's Bookstore" is still hanging.

Jilan retracted his gaze, walked straight over, and pushed open the red wooden door. The bell hanging on the door lintel immediately made a crisp tinkling sound.

"Sorry, the bookstore is closed today..."

As soon as he entered, he heard a mature female voice.

Jilan saw that there was a small round table at the front desk of the bookstore entrance, with three women sitting around it.

The three women looked almost identical, except for their clothing and hairstyles: one had short hair, one had long hair, and one had pigtails.

The person who spoke was a long-haired woman wearing a pair of round-framed glasses. She was the owner of the bookstore, Cecilia Moran.

"Ok?"

When they saw Jilan pushing the door open, the three women were startled and looked surprised.

They stood up almost at the same time.

"Mr. Gillan Iros?!"

"Good morning ladies."

Jilan smiled slightly, took off his hat very gentlemanly, and then looked at the woman on the left.

"We meet again, Ms. Yaz."

"It's been a month since we last met in Coburn. I didn't expect to see you here again, Mr. Gillan."

Ms. Yaz smiled slightly.

The sister next to her raised an eyebrow but did not ask any further questions, obviously knowing what Yaz had experienced in Coburn.

"Sir, please sit down."

Cecilia, the shop owner, politely pulled out a chair and gestured with her hand.

The woman smiled and said:

"Come to think of it, sir, you have patronized my shop before. It is also a great fate."
