Chapter 373 The Invasion of Light

The bright moonlight shone through the narrow window into the interior of room number nine in the inner sanctuary of the practitioners.

A pure white light appeared out of thin air in the room, reflecting off the silvery moonlight and illuminating Elisa's envious eyes.

"Open your mind and carefully experience this ray of light!" Heather controlled a ray of light and poured it into Elisa's body.

"boom...!"

Elisa suddenly felt herself enveloped by a blazing power, as pure as sunshine after rain, as intense as the heat of summer, as pristine as white, and as warm as the winter sun.

The ray of light stayed inside Elisa's body for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, until she was drenched in sweat before gradually dissipating.

"Can you feel it?" Heather asked gently.

"I felt it, but I couldn't grasp it!"

Heatherine smiled and said, "Although the light is always around you, its favor may only last for a moment. You just need to wait patiently for that moment."

"Tomorrow someone will come to guide you to comprehend the Book of Light. You can compare it with what you felt just now!" Heatherine's voice faded into the distance, leaving only Elisa standing blankly in the room with a bewildered look in her eyes, motionless for a long, long time.

The next morning, as expected, someone came to escort Elisa. However, the person who came was not an ordinary holy servant, but a knight commander of the same level as her uncle.

“Lady Elisa, I am Lymando, the guardian of the Temple of Light. From now on, I will arrange the time for you to study the Book of Light. If you have any requests, please remember to tell me in advance!” The knight commander had a stern face. After speaking, he turned and walked out without waiting for Elisa's reaction. Elisa had no choice but to follow quickly.

The two walked along the tree-lined path outside the cultivators' community toward the Qiyun Stone Gate.

Elisa has an uncle who is in charge of the Knights' Hall, so she is naturally very clear about everything in the inner hall. She knows that the foundation of the inner hall lies behind this tall prayer stone gate, where there are countless cultivation scriptures. Now she has directly bypassed those low-level scriptures and is going to comprehend the "Book of Light" that mortals can only look up to.

The area in front of the Qiyun Stone Gate was crowded with cultivators waiting to enter and cultivate. When Elisa, dressed in a gauze robe, walked past them without waiting in line, the strange looks she received made Elisa feel extremely irritated.

Alyssa saw her uncle Wenger, who gave her an encouraging look, and Alyssa even felt a touch of envy.

Uncle Wenger was not qualified to study the Book of Light either.

But this only made Elisa more irritable.

Elisa tried to regulate her heartbeat and breathing to calm herself down.

The Temple of Light is located at the deepest part of the inner sanctuary, where it is situated at a high elevation and receives the best natural light.

Lymando stopped in his tracks. A three-story stone tower appeared in front of him. If it weren't for someone guiding her, Elisa would never have imagined that the Temple of Light was not a temple, but a tower!

"We're here, on the top floor. You have one hour!" The usually taciturn Lymando activated his Holy Spirit power, unlocked the magic array lock on a small door, and then stood silently to the side, starting the timer.

Elisa entered the Temple of Light and climbed the narrow staircase to the top floor.

The top of the tower is made entirely of transparent material, allowing the spring sunlight to filter through and be gathered into a beam of pure white, dazzling light by a wondrous magic circle, which then shines onto a stone platform in the center.

Elisa walked over excitedly and saw the book on the stone platform that all cultivators longed for.

It was a thick slate book, each page of which was a thin slate. The slate was clearly no ordinary object; Elisa could feel it absorbing the dazzling sunlight.

"The Book of Light..."

Although she couldn't read the writing on the slate cover at all, Elisa still managed to pronounce its name, a result of a deep connection she felt with the slate within her.

“This is… Princess Heatherine’s consciousness…” Elisa had a strange feeling.

Elisa recalled how Princess Heatherine had infused her with a ray of light last night. At the time, she only felt the intense heat of the light, but now she realized it was not that simple.

Elisa first clasped her hands together in a devout prayer before reaching out to lift the thick slate book.

When she touched the slate book, she felt a burning heat emanating from it, which made her skin sting slightly.

The first page of the slate book was turned up, and the words, similar to those on the cover, formed a mysterious picture.

"Relic text...!"

Elisa let out a soft breath and looked at the slate book that was both text and pictures. She was not surprised, but instead reverently placed her hand on the slate.

After becoming a candidate for sainthood, she was qualified to know some of the core knowledge of the temple, including the origin of the temple's various mysterious texts.

At that time, alien races invaded, and humanity was powerless to resist. Just when humanity was about to submit to the alien races, ancient ruins appeared.

This ruin has existed in this world for an unknown period of time. The texts inside are written in languages ​​that people cannot directly understand, so people call it an "ancient ruin," and the various scripts inside are called "ruins script"!

A strange pain came through Elisa's hand—yes, it was pain!

A scorching heat entered her body through Heather's fair hands and arms, just like what Heather had done the night before, only it was more rigid and colder than Heather's ray of light!
