Hearing Lin Yu's words, Vlamay composed herself, selectively ignoring the term she didn't understand, and looked at him with a strange expression:
"You still want to learn Magic?"
Lin Yu raised an eyebrow. "If you're willing to teach, why wouldn't I learn?"
Vlamay shook her head. "No matter how powerful the Magic, it can't compare to a single thought from you. I don't understand the point of you learning Magic."
Lin Yu rolled his eyes and said irritably, "The way you put it, why does it need a point? Look at you, you've mastered countless powerful Magics, but don't you still love the Magic that conjures flower fields the most?"
"I do it because—"
Vlamay's words stopped abruptly, and she sighed shortly after. "Fine, I understand what you mean."
Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction. "Good that you understand. So, do you have any ideas?"
Vlamay pondered for a moment, hesitating. "Perhaps there really is..."
"Oh?"
Lin Yu was somewhat surprised.
Vlamay raised her right hand, and a Stream of Light burst forth from her Palm, condensing into a thick, leather-bound book.
"What is this?"
"The Holy Scripture."
Vlamay lowered her Eyes, stroking the Relief of a holy staff on the book's cover, and whispered, "The Holy Scripture bestowed by the Goddess, who, according to Mythology, created the world and is omniscient and omnipotent."
So it was this thing!
Lin Yu became interested and carefully examined this creation that clearly surpassed the era.
"Looking at the language textbook you brought earlier, I thought Humans were still using writing tools like animal hides and wooden boards, but it turns out you invented paper long ago!"
"Actually, not yet..."
Vlamay shook her head, raising the Holy Scripture in her hand. "This thing is not a Human creation; it's a specialty of the Church. It is said that as long as the conditions for becoming a Holy Scripture are met, whatever the writing tool was before will transform into this appearance."
Lin Yu asked with interest, "Is this the Goddess's Magic?"
Vlamay nodded. "That's right. To use the Goddess's Magic, one must possess innate aptitude. Those with this aptitude gain resistance to Curses, so we call it the 【Goddess's Blessing】."
"Wait a minute!"
Lin Yu was speechless. "You don't think I possess this Goddess's Blessing, do you?"
Vlamay shook her head. "No, what I mean is, Human Magic is too trivial for you—like a hundred-meter-tall giant being unable to grasp a one-meter Sharp sword. But the Goddess's Magic might be just right for you."
Saying this, she opened the Holy Scripture in her hands, gazing at the stories and Commandments recorded within. "Although the Holy Scripture itself contains none of the Goddess's Magic content, after long periods of interpretation, the Monks discovered that the stories from the Mythology era and the Goddess's Commandments actually hide numerous methods for using the Goddess's Magic."
"I never understood why the Goddess would hide her Magic within stories and Commandments before."
"Only at this moment did I suddenly realize that perhaps precisely because the True God's power transcends the ordinary, the Goddess could only choose this method to pass down her Magic..."
"So now you understand. Just like the inexplicable Curse, the Goddess's Magic is also an existence beyond the ordinary. With the current understanding of Magic among Humans, it's impossible to grasp the principles behind it."
"Magic like that might be perfectly suited for you."
"As for the Goddess's Blessing, you are a God from an Otherworld. If it's you, perhaps the Goddess will show you respect, or even make an exception to appear and meet you!"
By the last sentence, Vlamay's Eyes shone with the brilliance of curiosity and the desire to know.
Lin Yu's face was covered in Black Lines. "In the end, that last sentence was what you really wanted to say, wasn't it!"
Vlamay nodded frankly. "That's right."
"You really don't hide anything at all!"
Lin Yu grumbled while taking the Holy Scripture from her hands.
No matter what, he should try it first!
Thinking this, Lin Yu immediately mobilized his consciousness and carefully extended a tendril into the Holy Scripture.
Instantly, the Holy Scripture, thick as a brick, erupted in dazzling light.
This light was so intense that Vlamay, staring directly at it, felt her Eyes sting and had to close them, releasing several Barrier Magics in succession to protect herself.
Several seconds later, the dazzling light finally began to recede.
Vlamay kept her Eyes tightly shut, listening to the sound of the Holy Scripture pages rustling, and couldn't help but ask, "Did it succeed?"
"...I was rejected."
A slightly helpless voice came from ahead.
Vlamay was slightly startled, quickly opening her sore Eyes to look at the Young Man holding the Holy Scripture.
The Young Man held the opened Holy Scripture, but the pages that should have been filled with mythological stories and the Goddess's Commandments were now completely blank!
How was this possible?!
Vlamay's pupils contracted sharply as she stared blankly at the blank Holy Scripture.
Lin Yu flipped through the blank pages, a thoughtful expression on his handsome face.
During the process of his consciousness contacting the Holy Scripture, he had indeed sensed an extremely powerful force.
This force was quite similar to the World Consciousness that had previously blocked his entry, but the two were definitely not the same entity.
From this point of view, this Goddess was far from reaching the level of creating the world and being omniscient and omnipotent; at best, she could touch the origin of the world, still far from Lin Yu's Rank.
As for the apprehension she felt upon discovering him, Lin Yu suspected that the Goddess might have contributed some effort when the World blocked his entry.
Then he couldn't blame her; who told him he was an uninvited guest forcibly barging into someone else's home!
"...This is truly an unprecedented situation!"
Vlamay snapped back to reality, looking intently at the blank Holy Scripture. "But no matter what, at least the Holy Scripture is still here!"
Lin Yu was slightly startled.
That's right, the Holy Scripture was still here!
This thing withstood his consciousness and didn't instantly annihilate!
Could the Holy Scripture itself possess some special divine quality?
Lin Yu quickly closed the Holy Scripture and noticed that the holy staff Relief on the cover was gradually fading.
Before long, the holy staff Relief completely disappeared, replaced by an extremely profound and complex Rune.
Lin Yu pondered, tentatively extending his consciousness tendril into it, and indeed left his Mark on the Rune.
Simultaneously, a perfect circular Relief appeared on the cover.
Lin Yu's face looked strange. With a thought, the circular Relief began to distort, first turning into the Song typeface character 'Lin,' and then twisting into the image of Rumble Rock, the Ridgepeak Lord.
Vlamay watched the entire scene unfold and immediately couldn't help but ask, "What is happening?"
Lin Yu looked up and said with a strange tone, "If I'm not mistaken, that Goddess has given it to me..."
Was this a gesture of goodwill?
Lin Yu mused internally.
Vlamay was stunned upon hearing this, then pondered, "So, this is your Holy Scripture from now on?"
"Yes."
Lin Yu nodded, then held the Holy Scripture and extended his consciousness tendril into it again.
Not long after, he raised his hand, and a ball of Blue Light emanating Magic Power fluctuations burst forth from his Palm.
"It really works!"
A smile appeared on Lin Yu's face.
He tried to use the Holy Scripture as a medium for Cultivation, discovering that the thing could indeed convert and downgrade his Spiritual Power, thereby indirectly influencing the Magic Power in the atmosphere.
"With this, activating Magic Power is no longer an issue. Vlamay, teach me Magic quickly!"
Hearing Lin Yu's impatient words, Vlamay's expression became strange.
After a moment of hesitation, she spoke, "Lin, let's be clear first. I have only taught Humans before; I don't know how to teach a God..."
Lin Yu said without hesitation, "Just follow the normal procedure~"
"Fine. If anything goes wrong, I take no responsibility."
After speaking, Vlamay began to explain the principles of Magic composition from Magic Power.
After Lin Yu nodded to show he understood, she spoke again. "Current Magic users have developed the technique of chanting-free casting, but beginners should best learn to recite Incantations when releasing Magic."
"I'll teach you a few basic elemental Magics first. Follow me and chant—"
"Sigh of the Wind... Blade of the Rending Sky!"
"Whoosh—"
Instantly, the Magic Power compressed the air into a blade, slashing forward with a sharp wind cry, leaving a cutting mark several feet long on the broken giant tree ahead.
"What's the big deal? The Incantation sounds so intimidating, but it's just a regular Wind Blade."
"This is nothing! Watch me!"
Lin Yu held the Holy Scripture and spoke with full confidence, "Wind—"
"Whoosh—"
Before the word was finished, countless Magic Power existing in the atmosphere began to riot, responding to Lin Yu's summons like wanderers finally finding their harbor, cheering joyfully.
In just an instant, a terrifying Wind Blade a hundred meters long materialized amidst Lin Yu's gradually stiffening expression.
The Magic Power dissipating from the edges of the Wind Blade continuously cut into the ground and trees, worsening the already Messy forest.
Seeing this, Vlamay, who had already erected a Barrier around her body, sighed and murmured, "I knew it!"
