"Meow~"

Tom lay on Ani's warm chest, enjoying the doubly pampered favor of his master, and let out a satisfied and cheerful meow.

Fawkes pressed against the top of Ani's head, glanced at his friend helplessly, and secretly said in his heart.

As a creature standing at the top of the pyramid, the phoenix's perception is extremely keen, and when Aini returned, it noticed the changes in the other party.

Obviously, in the brief separation before, Aini had experienced a great adventure alone, but unfortunately it was missed.

The phoenix is a powerful and proud species, and there are only a handful of powerful wizards in history who may be recognized by this legendary creature.

Strictly speaking, even the old headmaster was not among them, and Fawkes followed him, more because of the shadow of the ancestor of the Dumbledore family, who was a supernatural figure who could be remembered by the Phoenix.

When tracing the origin of various legends, eternal life is one of the ultimate goals that human beings strive for but cannot reach.

In the poems that record the progress of mankind, there is no shortage of amazing and overwhelming heroes, who have accomplished one great event after another that is called a miracle in the legends.

But no one has succeeded in conquering death, not once.

These include the three Peverell brothers in The Tales of the Poet Pedou, as well as Nicol Lemay, the legendary alchemist who claims to have created the elixir of life.

More than 600 years old, it can be a miracle among Muggles, but in the eyes of wizards, it can only be called long-lasting, in fact, a lot of magic can make people grasp the loophole of death and save themselves.

That's right, to preserve, not to live.

After all, in the cognition of transcendent life, the main meaning of the word "life" for eternal life should be "life", not "survival".

If it is muddy and gradually similar to ants, what is the point of surviving like this for a long time?

When Dumbledore returned, he told Ani that Nicol Lemay was going to die, either in a year or two, or in three or four years, and that the old man was currently planning to spend his last life.

Despite the fact that the two had been friends for a hundred years, Dumbledore did not show sadness when he spoke.

If Lemay's plan succeeds, the old guy will be able to fool Death and choose himself before his soul returns.

Failure is not a relief, for him death is only the beginning of another great adventure, and there will be a day when we will meet.

It seems that Dumbledore is more famous in modern times, but it is still far from when Lemay was in his prime.

Even those who are at the top of the human race still cannot attain true immortality, because it is not their ideas and abilities that limit them, but the formless but ubiquitous rules.

After the Dark Ages, this heaven and earth would not allow such a transcendent existence to appear.

Naturally, the Phoenix's "eternal life" also has some kind of flaw.

Infinite rebirth does not mean endless accumulation, the moment the fire of nirvana is ignited, all material dependence will turn into nothingness for Fawkes, and even the accumulated magic will be used as nourishment for the flame, gradually losing the support of the soul.

The load capacity of a pure divine soul is very limited, and all things that are added to it will increase its burden except for the soul itself.

The same is true of the combat skills that have been trained, the magic that has been learned, the perception of the power of fire, and so on, including the memories that fill the mind in the long life.

If it is a natural nirvana that has accumulated to the limit, and the abundant mana can still provide greater support for the phoenix's divine soul after feeding the fire of nirvana, then Fawkes can selectively retain more memories.

And normal Nirvana, more or less will increase its divine soul strength, which can also be said to be a basic guarantee, so that the phoenix can retain more experience and memories when it is in Nirvana, and quickly become stronger.

But if Nirvana is forced to be carried out due to an accident, not only can it not get any additional support, but the little phoenix must throw out more memories and experiences as fuel for the fire of Nirvana, and the strength of the divine soul will also decrease, and it will consume the accumulation of many normal Nirvanas at once

results, it will take longer to return to the peak.

Last time Nirvana had the help of Aini, Fawkes almost didn't lose any of the memories and experience he wanted to keep, so it was very quick to recover, and it greatly increased the strength of a wave of souls.

The little guy decided to put the increased share as exclusive to Aini, so that no matter how many times he went to Nirvana, he would always remember him and the little things we had together, instead of just remembering some important things like the ancestor of the Dumbledore family.

And now, an important adventure that was so close at hand, it missed it.

"Wow~"

Fox's mood is a little mixed, that is, happy for Anie's change, but also a little aggrieved by his absence.

"This time it was an accident, let's go on an adventure at sea together during the summer vacation."

Aini touched the phoenix's little head and looked to the east.

As for the will of heaven and earth, he had speculated before.

It can be conjectured that before it is confirmed, it cannot be brought into other operations, and only after it is accurately verified can it become a theorem and truly authoritative and supportive.

The experience in the Room of Requirement not only made him clear about the will of heaven and earth, or the existence of plane consciousness and Gaia consciousness, but also gave him a certain understanding of his behavioral norms.

The erased words prove that she is not a passive observer, and in certain limited circumstances, she will use her power to directly intervene in the operation of things.

After that, Aini seems to have broken a certain "cognitive barrier", many concepts that were difficult to understand in the past can now be easily understood, and many irrational points in the previous cognition have been gradually replaced and reversed.

If life is like moving forward with a weight in a time like water, he was like being wrapped in all kinds of miscellaneous things, hemp rope, cotton wool, and rags, and the more water he stained, the heavier the burden.

Now, as if he had abandoned the burden of the past, when the sea water condensed on him only swallowed knowledge, the salt particles filtered out of it, when the water dissolved them, would make it easier for him, and he would be able to get more of his favorite things from the long river.

After being mentally clear, in fact, if you think about Ravenclaw's approach, it is not out of line, in that era of darkness and turmoil, what wizard would not be ready to die with the enemy?

It's all too normal to leave a self-destruct feature in your own secret base.

The four giants who founded Hogwarts in the record have already found the inheritance of two of them, and he may be able to look for them at his leisure, and he is especially curious about the Hufflepuff heritage.

Legend has it that she was not only one of the top wizards of her time, but her cooking skills were completely unmatched.

Ahem, it's gluttonous......

Thank you for your support and companionship.

I went out yesterday, and I finally got out, so I didn't say much, but I sent it out first
