Chapter 352 Breaking through the sixth level! Hidden profession - [Secret Keeper! 】
It seems like only a short second has passed, but it also seems like a century.
Time seems to have lost its meaning at this moment.
Xia En is located in the [Secret Sea], watching the birth, rise, and even destruction of previous civilizations one after another.
During this process, his state of mind went from shock and disbelief at the beginning to gradually becoming calm and even taking on a vaguely detached attitude.
At this moment, Xia En seemed to have really understood the meaning of the so-called "Secret Sea Walker"!
Every step you take, you will see and hear scenery.
At the same time, Xia En also had a different kind of realization in his heart -
In the face of eternal time, individuals and even civilizations are so small and fragile.
It's like a bubble that's about to burst.
Perhaps some people will fall into nihilism in front of this scene and think that life's efforts are meaningless.
But Xia En feels exactly the opposite.
Even though every civilization eventually perished in that sudden "dark" disaster.
But before that, those civilizations also shined as brightly as diamonds.
There are countless talented people emerging, just like the stars shining.
Xia En even discovered that the more a civilization is on the verge of destruction, the more amazing its potential and power are.
If each civilization were personified, it would probably be their last struggle before extinction.
Because of this, Xia En is more determined in his thoughts -
In this limited time, he must do his best to shine in this world and leave a legacy. traces of oneself.
In addition to the continuous growth of [Career Fit] on the panel.
Xia En is also undergoing a unique transformation in the process of traveling through the [Secret Sea].
This transformation is difficult to describe.
It is not only an improvement in the level of secret power and soul power, but also a sublimation and detachment of mind.
Putting it in Xianxia novels, I am afraid it is the so-called "enlightenment!"
Although it will not be of much help to Xia En's strength in a short period of time.
But it will be of great benefit to his future secret journey and reduce many obstacles for him.
After leaving another destroyed [Secret Realm], Xia En returned to the vast and deep [Secret Sea] again.
At this time, the [Old Daily Fire] in front of him had become quite weak, as if it would go out at any time.
This is also inevitable.
After all, this flame is just a ray of original fire separated from Yan Yan, and it is not a complete [Old Fire].
And after taking Xia En back to so many [Secret Realm Afterimages] and having Xia En absorb the secret power from them, the remaining power of this [Old Fire] was already running low.
But at this time, Xia En no longer needs to rely on its power.
Xia En opened his eyes and slowly looked around.
[Secret Sea] is as dark and deep as ever, and countless [Secret Realms] are like stars scattered in every corner.
The terrifying and dangerous [Secret Sea] giant is hidden in the depths of the [Secret Sea], in the shadow of those "starlights".
Everything looked the same as before.
However, in Xia En’s eyes, the entire [Secret Sea] was completely different from what he remembered.
He seemed to be able to see invisible threads in the [Secret Sea].
They are connected and intertwined in a mysterious and mysterious way, forming a huge network that is difficult to describe in words, including everything in the [Secret Sea].
That is not just a special connection between different [secret realms].
It is a certain kind of rule that ordinary people cannot capture at all.
Or...
[Law! 】
For no reason, a completely unfamiliar word popped into Xia En's mind.
But it gave Xia En a very suitable feeling, as if it should be the case.
"[Law]..."
Xia En chewed this word silently, and suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
This [Law] is naturally not the law of a certain country or [Secret Realm], but the rules that need to be followed in this entire [Secret Sea]!
These are the most basic and unchangeable laws!
Boom——
After realizing this, there was a thunderous sound in Xia En's mind.
The secret power accumulated from previous travels in the [Secret Realm] and the constant transformation finally burst out suddenly at this time.
Like a "fish" trapped in the deep sea without seeing the light of day, it finally jumped out of the sea.
A brand new world appeared in front of Xia En.
As you climb up the ranks, your soul sublimates!
[You have peeked into the deepest secrets of the "Secret Sea"! 】
【You have come into contact with a corner of the "Great Law"! 】
【Hidden secret career: Secret Keeper (Level 6)! 】
[Description: The secrets of the "Secret Sea" cannot be told to others in conventional ways. They can only be understood by experiencing it personally. 】
【From now on, secrets... will become your strength! 】
[But contacting secrets is inherently dangerous. Please be sure to maintain your sanity and humanity. 】
【Losing your mind, you lose a lot;】
【Losing your humanity, you lose everything! 】
A waterfall-like flow of information washed past Xia En's eyes.
Xia En’s first reaction was a little surprised——
Am I promoted now?
What about the promotion ritual for the sixth level?
According to the normal promotion model, he should accept the trial of the [Secret Sea] and achieve promotion after completing the ritual.
But this time, the process of breaking through to the sixth level seemed to have skipped the promotion ritual, which surprised Xia En.
However, if you think about it carefully, it’s not that Xia En can’t understand it.
In fact, Xia En's previous journey through various [Secret Realm Afterimages] was in itself a test of his character.
If you lose your confidence and fighting spirit because of the sights you see, let alone promotion, you will probably have a complete "dao heart collapse" and will be unable to make any progress on the secret path.
As for Xia En’s guess.
Another reason why he did not advance to Ritual when he was promoted to the sixth level this time is probably...
The [Great Law] mentioned on the panel that he just spied on!
Xia En actually still has many questions about the existence of the [Great Law].
For example, when did this law exist in the [Secret Sea]?
For another example, was it created by [Secret Sea] on its own, or was it an artificially established existence?
But putting aside these doubts for the time being, Xia En has a bold guess in his mind -
[Seven Seas World] The so-called [Ascension to the Gods] and [Promotion Ritual] are actually all This is the stipulation of this [Great Law]!
Xia En had previously found it strange why when a transcendent was promoted, his consciousness would be pulled into the [Secret Sea] for testing.
It is like a rigid and powerful program that operates according to certain rules.
Now that I think about it, if [Promotion Ritual] is compared to a program, then [Great Law] is its underlying code!
[The Great Law] stipulates that all extraordinary people who reach a certain level must enter the [Promotion Ritual].
Those who complete the trial will be promoted successfully. Those who fail to complete the trial will be classified as failures.
Different [secret realms] may have different promotion methods and different extraordinary systems.
But the core "underlying code", that is, the [Great Law] will not change.
Look at it from this perspective. It can be said that the [Great Law] is the source of all extraordinary powers in the [Secret Sea] and the core of all extraordinary systems!
Because of this, when Xia En spied the existence of the [Great Law].
In fact, the conditions for promotion to [Secret Keeper] are met, and there is no need to pass the trial assessment.
It is also for this reason.
When Xia En was promoted this time, he felt completely different from his previous promotions.
It is somewhat similar to the experience of truly coming into contact with extraordinary power and becoming a first-order mystic.
It’s like crossing a very special threshold and opening the door to a new world!
Thinking of this, Xia En murmured secretly.
“The secrets of [Secret Sea] cannot be told to others in conventional ways...Only by experiencing it personally can we understand.”
“Could it be said that Yan Yan turned [Old Fire] Do you want me to see the existence of the [Great Law] personally when you leave it to me?”
While Xia En was thinking.
The second wave of information washed out, belatedly appearing on the panel.
[You have received a gift from the "Secret Sea"! 】
【Your personal attributes have increased! 】
【Comprehensive quality: 25→30! 】
【Unlock the exclusive talent of "Secret Keeper": Secret Echo! 】
[Quality: Legend]
[Description: "Secret" and "Secret Keeper" coexist. 】
【"Secret" has become your partner and strength. 】
【Every time you come into contact with related things or experience an event personally, you can trace back their history and hide the "secrets" buried within them. 】
【When these "hidden" truths are pieced together, you will draw unique power from them and unlock new entries. 】
……
...
[The talent "Eye of Peeping Secrets" has changed! 】
[Quality: Epic → Legend! 】
[Description: The "Secret Sea" gave you black eyes, but you used them to find "secrets". 】
【Your "Peeping Eyes" can not only see through the information of different "secret realms". 】
[It can also make it easier to find things with "secret" and see through the hidden information behind them. 】
【Under these eyes, there is no way to hide the "hidden" things. 】
……
【Whenever you draw strength from "Secret", your career compatibility can be slightly improved. 】
【Current career compatibility: 0%】
After reading this information, Xia En looked thoughtful again.
Obviously, similar to [Secret Sea Walker], [Secret Keeper] is a hidden profession that does not directly give him talents and skills for combat.
But it gave him the means to gain power.
Xia En summarized: "It means... you can become stronger by exploring secrets?"
However, Xia En is still a little unclear about the concept of [secret].
What kind of things can be regarded as [hidden] things?
Fortunately, Xia En saw a new column of information at the bottom of the panel soon.
[Current contact with secrets:]
[The mystery of the destruction of the Great Yan Kingdom - the once prosperous Great Yan Kingdom was destroyed on the eve of the coming of the world-destroying flood. 】
[People in the world only thought that the Great Yan Kingdom was destroyed by the great flood, but during your contact with the Black Flame Walker, King Xin, and Princess Great Yan, you had a vague glimpse of part of this incident. reality. 】
[But there is still a long way to go before the truth. 】
[Solution density: 63%]
......
[The disappearance of the elves - the prosperous elves suddenly disappeared in the history of the Seven Seas world, and... The curse of aphasia was left behind. 】
【You have keenly noticed that the elves have not perished, but have migrated to a certain secret realm. 】
[It’s just that you are still missing the last piece of the puzzle leading to the truth. 】
[Solubility Density: 90%]
......
[Black Disaster—a terrifying disaster from the depths of the secret sea, no one knows why it happens Appear. 】
【Today, countless civilizations have been swallowed by darkness. 】
[Perhaps, the dark wave has already accumulated not far away. 】
[Solution Density: 1%]
Seeing these words, Xia En's eyes suddenly narrowed.
“Is this the so-called [secret]?”
“Those truths buried by history and time?”
In any case, Xia En originally planned to pursue the "mystery of the destruction of the Great Yan Kingdom" and the disappearance of the elves.
And being able to receive the gift of cracking the [Secret] during this process is undoubtedly a big surprise.
Xia En was a little surprised.
The [Secret] "The Disappearance of the Elves" has a decryption density of only 90%?
He thought he had solved the mystery.
But now it seems that he has overlooked a crucial factor.
As for the so-called [Black Disaster]...
Just seeing this name gave Xia En a chill in his heart.
With the help of [Old Day Fire], Xia En saw the ruined civilizations one after another.
The reason why they were destroyed, without exception, was the weird darkness.
In the panel, that kind of disaster is called——
[Black Disaster]!
Xia En had doubted at first whether this disaster was related to [Huisi Ming].
But after observing the destruction of several civilizations, he quickly gave up this speculation.
This is a terrible disaster that is absolutely different from the invasion of [Huisiming].
Even in those civilizations, there were clearly some powerful beings who could be called gods.
But in the end, even they could not prevent the [Black Disaster] from coming, and could only watch the civilization being destroyed.
Xia En sensed a pure malice towards life and civilization from those darkness.
It seems that only by eliminating all life will the wave of darkness completely subside.
This is completely different from the feeling of [Huisiming].
The purpose of [Filthy Command] is to stir up chaos and absorb the power of filth and chaos.
But if there is no life left, who will provide Him with the power of filth and chaos?
From a certain perspective, [Huisiming] may still pursue "sustainable development".
But [Black Disaster] is a complete and indiscriminate obliteration.
Xia En even suspected that if [Huisi Ming] faced the [Black Disaster], it would be no different from a fragile civilization and would not be able to resist the eradication of the [Black Disaster].
That is the truly terrifying disaster in [Secret Sea]!
Moreover, [Black Disaster] seems to be expanding to other [Secret Realms].
Maybe one day, [Seven Seas World] will also be enveloped by it!
Just imagining that scenario made Xia En's hair stand on end, and even gave him a little despair.
