Chapter 65: The so-called Yuanchen Guardian
Finally, I would like to welcome Nicholas back to my class. β
"You don't have a lot of homework, and with the help of Liu Feifei, you can make up for it. Of course, I would like to take this opportunity to make you understand that the path of magic is not the same, there is only one right path. But all paths need to be walked by yourselves. β
"Your own path is the most suitable and best 'way'. β
There was a moment of silence in the classroom, followed by a round of applause.
Silence is the deep meaning of Professor Yao's best words, and applause is dedicated to Nicholas who has climbed back from the abyss. Everyone could finally look at the wizard sitting in the back row of the classroom unabashedly, look at Liu Feifei sitting next to Nicholas, watch the two of them blushing together, raising their heads bravely, many whistles, and some people use magic to sprinkle petals all over the sky and summon pink elves who play the harp.
Professor Yao had to severely stop the latter behavior.
By the time class got back on track, it was already five minutes laterβit took a lot of time for the gray-uniformed elves to clean up the petals that had fallen to the ground.
"Today is a Spell Theory class, and as I mentioned before, today's lecture is 'Yuanchen Guardian Spell'. Professor Yao looked at the attentive eyes of the audience, nodded with satisfaction, and raised the pipe in his hand:
"First of all, let me confirm...... Who in the class has displayed the Yuanchen Guardian?"
Zheng Qing raised his arm reservedly and proudly.
Then he immediately realized that his reserve was justified - including him, only four people in the entire Astronomy 08-1 class raised their arms.
The other three are Liu Feifei, Jiang Yu and Matthew.
This surprised him.
Although he thought that there were not many people in the class who had mastered this spell, he had not expected it to be so bad at all. Zhang Jixin didn't learn, Zheng Qing could understand it, after all, the proportion of muscles in the elder's head was too high. However, Xiao Xiao, Downton and several other students with excellent grades did not master the Yuanchen Guardian Spell, which is a little puzzling.
"You haven't even been successful?" Zheng Qing confirmed to the doctor with a slight sigh, "I thought you would ask Mr. Sima for this spell." β
Xiao Xiao glanced at him.
"Listen to the class. The tip of the quill in the doctor's hand poked at the notebook in front of him, his face expressionless.
Zheng Qing retracted his gaze a little boredly.
"Who has comprehended the meaning of this spell?" On the podium, the professor threw out a second question, and his gaze slid over the faces of the four students one by one.
This time, only two people were left to raise their hands.
Jiang Yu and Matthew Cullen.
The last time Zheng Qing successfully cast Yuanchen Guardian, it was a complete accident - Elena accidentally agreed to his reckless date request - and then at a certain moment, the wizard was blessed with his heart and suddenly mastered the spell.
It can be said that success is in the blur.
Naturally, there will be no profound experience.
"As expected. Professor Yao looked at the remaining two students, nodded, and stuffed the pipe into his mouth, and then he realized that it was class, and this action was not appropriate, so he took the pipe out of his mouth again, and tapped the student in front of him with the handle:
"Just like the 'Dao Mark' represented by this mantra, students who already have a clear 'Dao Mark' and 'Guide' will always be able to master this mantra faster. β
As he spoke, he turned around, picked up the chalk and left the words 'road marker' on the blackboard.
These two words are the key to understanding this mantra. β
"From the moment we are born, each of us has an inseparable connection with the starry sky above our heads. The connection is very secret, but it is true. β
"Maybe it's a star, maybe it's a constellation, maybe it's a starry sky...... Everyone has a different level of connection to the stars. In other words, how far you can go on the path of magic, how deep your connection to the stars will be. β
"Back to the name of the spell. β
"Hearing the words 'Yuanchen Guardian', most students may deviate in their thinking. If you are thinking about this mantra and understand it from the perspective of 'magic number' and 'great consumption of Yuanchen', you can explain the meaning of the word 'guardian', but it has nothing to do with this spell at all. β
"In this mantra, 'Yuanchen' is more inclined to mean 'zodiac', 'good day' and 'primordial (New Year's Day)'. β
The so-called 'Great Consumption Yuanchen' is a kind of rhetoric in numerology, which has a large market in classical occultism, and those who hold this theory believe that the fate of Yuanchen is 'born prosperous, then it is down-and-out and generous, and if it dies, it is shabby and inferior; it is combined with the official charm, and it is more innocent to disturb it; it is a robbery, and it is not a good practice; it is good luck to meet the great luck, but it is difficult to have good luck in the passing years".
To put it simply, Yuanchen is a very bad kind of life among the hundreds of 'lives' of the eight-character gods.
"Who's going to give us a review of the wizard rank division that is now in vogue?" the professor asked again, and then casually nodded Zheng Qing up to answer the question.
This is a question to be scored, Zheng Qing thought as he stood up.
Then he replied without hesitation: "Unregistered Wizard, Registered Wizard, Grand Wizard, Legendary Wizard, Ancient Wizard......"
"It's okay, it's okay. Professor Yao hurriedly interrupted the young public-funded student's answer, motioned for him to shut up and sit down, and at the same time quickly replied: "Of course, it is also popular in the alliance to subdivide registered wizards into low-level registered wizards, middle-level registered wizards, high-level registered wizards, and so on...... What I want to say is that behind this series of ranks, we can all see a clear 'path' that has been established by our predecessors. β
"But the 'road' is too wide, and we may walk in circles or diagonally without realizing it. As the so-called 'Wangchuan runs a dead horse', on the endless flat ground, looking at the close distance, walking far, there is no sense of progress. At such times, we will inevitably have feelings of self-doubt. β
"This kind of emotion is very harmful to learning and research. β
"So at this time, we need a clear 'sign', from top to bottom, from a high vantage point, to be able to see whether we are standing still or moving on. β
Hearing this, most of the people in the class still had a dazed and unintelligible expression. Especially Elder Zhang, he scratched his ears and cheeks, looking dazed, not knowing where the point of the professor's lecture was.
But Zheng Qing had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
He finally understood what his 'Yuanchen Guardian' was all aboutβthe clearest and most profound path for him was the path to follow the direction of the 'Forbidden Spell'.
His forbidden spell seed is 'Order'.
And the essence of the forbidden spell is destruction, which represents death.
From this point of view, it is understandable that the messenger of death, who represents the 'order of the world of death', is his guardian Yuanchen. As for why it wasn't the 'Grim Reaper' but just a messenger, the wizard thought it might have something to do with the fact that the forbidden spell was just a seed and hadn't yet been formed.
