Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 176 Promotion, "Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record·Melting Furnace·Foundation Building Chapter"!
Lin Xia was immersed in reading forbidden books, and time passed very quickly.

Half an hour passed.

An hour passed.

Two hours passed...

Two professors in a mysterious space somewhere.

Among them, Dean Sprout suddenly said: "Lin Xia, time has passed a long time, right?"

Professor McGonagall lowered her head and looked at the magic clock. "Two hours have passed here, but she can't tell. That space is very strange. It may be slower than ours, or it may be faster than us."

The dean looked at Mag and hesitated: "Aren't you afraid that she will be unlucky and encounter a space where time flows very slowly and miss the exchange in France?"

She has seen students say that the physical experience of reading banned books only lasted two hours, but the students came out after a month.

This reading time created a record for the longest time reading banned books in Hogwarts.

It was okay at first, there were no accidents regarding the banned books.

Lin Xia had just finished reading a page, and when she was feeling exhausted, she turned to a new page, and suddenly a white ghost spirit appeared in front of her.

This time, he was in a trance, as if the Forbidden Book saw an opportunity, and more and more ghost bodies appeared.

Gradually, the gibbering disappeared, and some kind of rustling sound came again, as if there was some kind of insect crawling on her legs.

But for some students, winning an important award may be an important experience in their life.

She knew that there were different types of students, and Lin Xia's talent was definitely the best.

Professor McGonagall said slowly: "It's only been five hours, how come the space has shrunk so much."

The whisper was not talking randomly, but rather speaking spells in an orderly manner.

On the other side, Lin Xia had a new experience when reading banned books.

But as the reading continued to deepen, and the spirit continued to wear out, even though Lin Xia felt that her spirit was still very good, something indescribable had appeared around the banned book.

Lin Xia was no longer frightened, and then the Forbidden Book returned to calm and fell silent.

After a while, the illusion appeared directly on the book!

On the contrary, Lin Xia became more energetic after such a scare.

At first, there was a whisper in her ear.

Lin Xia:......

Originally, Mag was still thinking about giving her a sudden transformation spell, but Lin Xia followed up and said that she wanted to read the forbidden book.

The dean pondered for a moment and shook his head: "No, once you apply for off-site assistance, Lin Xia's reading of banned books will also be interrupted. Although the space is shrinking greatly now, we have detected that Lin Xia's mental state is extremely calm.

At the same time, the banned book began to fade from the cover, and the text disappeared bit by bit, but it disappeared very slowly, and Lin Xia was looking at the latter ones.

McGonagall uses different methods for different students.

This ghost body still appears in the form of a skull!

This is just another brick to add to her resume. In that case, why should I care so much? In comparison, reading forbidden books is more important than the Transfiguration competition. "

For outstanding students, various awards are just the icing on the cake and will not affect her continued excellence. It does not matter to her whether she gets the award or not.

She concentrated more and more, and did not notice that the space she was in was constantly twisting and collapsing, and some parts were showing signs of blurring.

Professor McGonagall has taught for many years.

Both professors became nervous after problems with the space began.

The dean worried: "Can the three props we prepared for her still maintain the original time when the space changes drastically?"

Of course, time also flows very quickly. The little wizard felt that he had been reading for a week, but it came out in an hour.

Lin Xia calmed down and didn't pay attention to those sounds.

Professor McGonagall said with a serious expression: "Sprout, I do attach great importance to the exchange of "Transfiguration Today", but I feel that Lin Xia's future will not be limited to this exchange.

Dean Sprout asked, "How many hours have it been now?"

I'm afraid it's not that scary, but it's definitely scary.

Professor McGonagall looked solemn: "It's hard to say. I think we need to apply for assistance from outside, maybe for urgent intervention."

Except for the Transfiguration Award, he might really never be able to win any other awards, so she warned Cedric even more strictly.

For example, for Lin Xia, she did whatever she wanted.

Just listening to it makes people feel that this spell has great power.

But Lin Xia knew that all these were illusions and ignored them.

Even if she doesn't win a single award, it cannot conceal her talent in research.

But the same trick worked only once.

Just like Cedric.

What else can better understand the nature of magic than forbidden books?
No.

In other words, she was not affected in any way. Since she was in a normal reading state, she had better wait and see. "

Professor McGonagall agreed: "Okay!"

"But once her mind fluctuates, we have to intervene immediately to pull her out. This kind of space is really too dangerous."

As time passed by, Lin Xia was unaware of the changes in the reading space.

After reading in depth.

At a certain moment, she realized that she had arrived in a strange space, and she could sense that this space was not malicious to her.

Instead, the space seems to be the banned book itself.

She feels the space is familiar to her.

A voice sounded in the bottom of my heart——

"Little wizard, congratulations on passing the test. You can truly see how magic and magic are formed, trace their true origins, and step into the established past."

Lin Xia persisted in the small space for another five hours.

After she finished watching all the displays in the space, the space suddenly shattered. Lin Xia came back to her senses and found that the space she was in was about to turn into nothingness!
But at this critical moment, her body was suddenly pulled by some strong suction force, breaking open the space, and there was a twisting and rotating feeling as if she was being stuffed into a pipe.

This feeling is like being apparated by someone, but it is far more uncomfortable than apparating.

It spans many levels of space, not just the same level of space.

Lin Xia appeared in front of the two professors. After a long period of pulling on his body, his face was a little pale.

She looked up and suddenly realized that she was back in the library.

Lin Xia asked in confusion: "Professor, what happened?"

Professor McGonagall replied: "It's not a big deal. Every time you read a banned book, various strange phenomena will occur, and the space collapse you encountered is a more dangerous one, but we have been observing your mind and found that you He was very calm, so he didn’t pull you back.”

The dean took over: "Later I found that the space you were in was about to be broken, so we both used magic to bring you back."

She looked Lin Xia up and down, her eyes filled with happiness.

Even she felt that the scene just now was very dangerous. Lin Xia was almost buried with the destroyed space!
If she had known that space would collapse so quickly at that time, she should have promised Professor McGonagall and quickly applied for off-site rescue. Lin Xia suddenly realized: "So that's what happened."

Professor McGonagall said: "You have been in the forbidden book area for a day. From the look on your face, you should have learned a lot."

She changed her words and said, "But little wizard, now you should go back and have a good rest and sort out what you have gained and learned."

Lin Xia thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back and rest first, and I'll report to you tomorrow."

Mag and Dean both nodded.

Giving a report is a routine matter, and the secret key is clearly stated, allowing the professor to better understand the little wizard's learning progress.

But Lin Xia had other guesses.

Maybe when reading forbidden books in the past, everyone only focused on ensuring the safety of the little wizard, but did not understand the knowledge the little wizard learned. As a result, the little wizard took risks and tried something, such as summoning a terrifying evil god.

Now I have to report every time I read a banned book.

The supervision is stricter than in the past, but it can also correct the young wizard's potentially dangerous thoughts.

Just like this, the little wizard's privacy is gone.

Lin Xia calmly returned to the golden wooden house. She was not opposed to this matter.

If it were anything else, she wouldn't be so sure, but when it came to making reports...

I believe that no little wizard is more experienced in this aspect than her.

She has a sense of what should be said and what should not be said.

After a short rest, Lin Xia closed her eyes slightly and sorted out the knowledge she had learned in her mind, including reading online versions of banned books and reading physical books.

Physical books are banned and the teaching method is very strange.

Although there were no words in the space she entered, there were words everywhere, and every detail was filled with knowledge.

Looking back now, I still gain something.

Using the physical banned book as the skeleton and the online banned book as the flesh and blood, Lin Xia integrated all the knowledge he had learned in these days.

Suddenly, Lin Xia opened her eyes and summoned the Scale of Destiny!

Coming to the foundation building period, the appearance of the balance of destiny has changed.

The originally bronze-colored rusty balance had a cyan rust stain that was almost too light to be noticed, revealing the original color of the balance.

Lin Xia noticed that the two ends of the scale were also different. The shape became wider and not as narrow as before.

In short, the whole thing looks like it has been refined.

She took a deep breath and sacrificed everything she had learned these days to the balance of fate!
At the same time, all the knowledge in her mind about the foundation-building chapter of "Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record", as well as other foundation-building techniques of the family, were all thrown into the balance of fate.

This time, she felt a sharp pain in her head.

Her soul seemed to be torn apart by an invisible hand, and something was knocked out of her flesh and bone marrow.

Whatever you get, you must pay first.

It is both an opportunity and a shackle.

Lin Xia leaned against the wall covered in sweat, her face instantly turned pale, and she coughed violently, as if she wanted to cough out her lungs!

But the pain only lasted a few seconds.

A steady stream of feedback came, and through some invisible force, the knowledge sacrificed to the Balance of Destiny was completely integrated, and turned into a brand new foundation-building technique that was more suitable for the wizarding world -

"Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record·Melting Furnace·Foundation Building Chapter"!
Lin Xia stopped coughing.

Her eyesight became brighter and brighter, and she was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, so she didn't realize that she was losing her hair again.

But this is not a natural drop.

Instead, more and more new hair is replacing the old hair, and even the teeth are falling out and replaced with new ones.

This process was originally painful, but it was suppressed by the warm and comfortable feedback of the balance of fate.

When Lin Xia came back to her senses from the ocean of knowledge, she found that her body had changed again.

But this time it's better, at least I don't have to shed my skin anymore.

After resting long enough these days, Lin Xia immediately started practicing after understanding the new techniques in the Foundation Building chapter.

Unlike those who practiced in the Bait Realm, once she practiced in the Foundation Establishment Realm, she felt like she could embrace all rivers.

She had already absorbed enough magic power in the Bait Realm, but compared to the Foundation Establishment Realm, it was just the difference between a small fish pond and a river.

The water in the small fish pond is limited, but the river is different. The water is alive and can flow in continuously.

Lin Xia felt the speed of the body's absorption of magic power soaring again, and also felt the pleasure of the surge in magic power.

After only practicing for half an hour, she stopped practicing, feeling that her body could not bear the expanding magic power.

It was not absorbed enough before, but now it cannot be absorbed, and there is no one left.

Lin Xia specially observed the magic power of the golden wooden house.

Even after her practice of sucking cow's milk, she still had a sufficient supply of magic power.

The golden wooden house is indeed golden and extraordinary!
I'm afraid there's a secret she doesn't know about, and she can't detect it right now.

In addition to practicing, Lin Xia deliberately used the deformation technique to transform into a mirage.

Because it is a non-attribute magical creature, Mirage cannot give her any combat power in the early stage.

Many young wizards only gradually gain the power of non-attribute magical creatures to feed them back when they reach adulthood.

But Lin Xia's transformation this time around clearly felt a little different.

She studied the mirage in her hand.

Obviously the change was still the same, and the movement process was the same, but she just felt that the mirage had become more vivid.

It's a bit strange.

She thought for a while, dispersed the mirage, took out a boulder from the ring, and transformed again. This time it transformed into a tiger, then a lion, a leopard...

After transforming into several creatures, Lin Xia understood what was different——

The eyes of animals are different!

It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul, and so are living things.

And every eye of the creature she transformed was piercing, adding to its aura.

She controlled the tiger to grab the black iron stone, leaving several deep claw marks on the stone.

Lin Xia's eyes were profound. This kind of power... was much stronger than the previous transformation!
She thought for a while, and another mirage appeared and lay on her shoulder.

Is this the impact of the foundation building period, or is this magical creature exerting its power?

Although the former is more likely, Lin Xia somehow feels that it is the latter.

At first, she just followed her intuition and chose the mirage as the magical creature to transform for the first time. Now it seems that this little thing is not simple.
