Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

William noticed that the deeper they moved, the more high level seals that appeared around. William ended up in a deep zone of this library where a weird triangle made of shelves stood in the middle of a wide area.

This triangle looked weird, as William never saw such an alignment before while moving inside the library towards here.

Each shelf was twenty metres in height and width, looking like a perfect square or something. The three shelves left three gaps between each other, enough for one adult person to pass through.

There were many lights coming from the ceiling of the library, lighting up the place even on such a dark night. Inside that triangle, lights seemed to fade away, giving a gloomy dark appearance to anyone seeing it from outside.

​ "This is the holy triangle," and the next words of the elder made William's heart race, "according to the note left by the venerable person who left this library behind, the secret of breaking through the shackles of our world lies within it. However, no matter who, no matter how many times we tried, none managed to know a single secret from here."

If William wanted to describe the feeling, he got from Lorance when he said his words then willingness, eagerness, faint bitterness and rage would be the best words to describe that.

"The holy triangle…" William muttered, thinking about the famous holy triad concept in the outer world. The familiarity he found in the name, coupled with the words Lorance said about that note left by whoever left this library behind, meant only one thing.

'So, there was someone who knew the secrets of the outer world and left them here for others… But what's the point in sealing them? Why won't he leave everything open for everyone to learn?'

This slightly puzzled William, and yet he couldn't resist the urge to go and see these shelves in person.
"You shall enter the triangle to access what's stored inside the Holy Triangle," when William went to check the shelves of one side of the triangle, Lorance said in a calm tone.

William just arrived at that side, and there he found to his surprise that the shelves here weren't like any other shelves he saw before.

The wall he selected was filled with holes, like a huge honeycomb. It was the same as any other shelf in the library. However, there was a little and major difference.

The holes in any shelve would be closed by a thin layer or many layers of coloured film that was made of energy. It was the seal, and inside, one could see a scroll, a bottle, or even a piece of rock lying in peace and waiting.

However, these holes here weren't like that. They weren't covered with any seals, but a thick layer of fog. It felt like these holes were inside a thick black cloud, cloaking anything inside from getting seen by anyone standing outside.

William couldn't tell if there were scrolls, bottles, or nothing at all inside each hole. He couldn't tell anything, and that seemed to be the normal of this holy triangle.

"I need to get inside to see?" William pointed towards the closest gap that would let anyone inside the centre of the triangle, "what's inside exactly?"

At this moment, it wasn't wise to keep acting like a curious kid, but a cautious one. William knew if the one who left such a treasure behind didn't want just anyone to get the knowledge he left, then there must be traps or tricks waiting for him inside.

"It's why no one ever managed to unlock the seal," Lorance bitterly sighed, "anyone entering the triangle will experience different things than others. For me, I'll find myself standing in the middle of a desert, standing in front of a flight of stairs, surrounded by a thick layer of black fog, while lightning will fry me out!"

William noticed a faint tremble at the body of Lorance when he said this. It seemed his experience was really quite painful, enough to make his body react unconsciously in such a way.

"Hmm… So, it's quite deadly?" William was doubting this.

"Not deadly," Lorance shook his head, before seriously adding in warning, "but if you have a weak will, don't even dream about stepping inside."

"Weak will?" such a word made William frown for a brief moment, before all of sudden his eyes went all wide.


Lorance didn't hear about any of William's deeds before as he got himself stuck around the library, trying to get through the weird lock of the holy triangle here.

He didn't care that much about the slight change in William's face and took it as a normal reaction any kid would show to such words.

"It's indeed a test of will," Lorance shifted his gaze towards the triangle, "our ancestors already reached such conclusion. To unlock the secrets inside this triangle, one needs to endure the hellish torture coming at him inside while ascending. I got lightning, others got fire, some got ice, and others got rocks falling on their heads without a single moment of pause or rest."

"So, one needs to endure for how long to access these secrets?" William asked, as he already started to see part of the grand scheme behind this holy triangle.

"Not for long," Lorance shook his head again, "there is a path, one that's leading to the top of a small hill. There are around ninety-nine stairs there, and one has to cross them to reach the top to unlock the seal."

"Ninety-nine steps Will Trial?!!!" Even if William looked pretty much shocked, even to the extent that his body trembled faintly, Lorance still missed all of that.

William gazed differently now towards that triangle, feeling immense shock inside.

'Weren't such trials only present at the most formidable places in any lesser world? Why is one here?!!"

William knew the Aspire academy was strong, but he also knew it wasn't that strong to have such a thing inside.
