    Lis reflected on the information in his mind, marveling at the unparalleled elegance of the Legendary Arcanist, Sphinx. Was this the stature of one who stood at the pinnacle of the Gaia World?


    Shaking his head involuntarily, Lis thought of his teacher, Stephens of the Judgement me. This Legendary Arcanist was also among that rare group of individuals at the very peak of the world. What could possibly be the pinnacle of his teacher''s arcane research?


    Lifting his head to look at the throne not far away, he stepped onto the second tier of the dais, and at that moment, a new inheritance started to flow into Lis'' mind.


    [Sphinx Ascension Technique·Faith Collection]


    This was part of the Legendary Arcanist Sphinx''s research on establishing an exclusive church, conceptualizing Divine Arts, and gathering faith.


    The special Magic Array that Lis had sessfully replicated in the second trial was part of this segment. Although it was a very minor grasppared to the entirety of the inheritance, it was still enough to surprise Sphinx into appearing and conversing with Lis.


    This was the life''s work of a Legendary Arcanist. The fact that Lis could barely grasp a small part of it was already quite remarkable. This was also why Sphinx and ck Cat believed that Lis could attain the final inheritance.


    The general principle of this part of the inheritance was to enshrine the honorable name of the arcane user among the followers. During their prayers to him, an external Virtual Faith Core was constructed using arcane magic to collect the Power of Faith from the believers.


    Sphinx chose to ce the Virtual Faith Core within the Divine Statue in the ck Temple.


    The Virtual Faith Core inside the Divine Statue was designed to have a function that grants core entities to Priests. Those who believed could establish a channel of connection with the Virtual Faith Core through the core entity and imbue Priests with the ability to perform special Divine Arts by using this force-transmitting channel.


    To be honest, the significance of this party not in endowing Priests with the power to use "Divine Arts," but rather as an attempt.


    Through special magical runes of arcane magic, Sphinx had sessfully controlled the Power of Faith, proving the correctness of his approach, and at the same timeying the foundation for various future attempts.


    Lis had already grasped the Magic Rune Sequence of the Faith Core entity. Although he was still in a state of knowing what it was but not why it was, this part of the inheritance was still rtively straightforward for Lis.


    At the same time, Lis also understood where the real challenge of the third trialy.


    It was to memorize all the content of [Sphinx Ascension Technique] and imprint it deep within his soul.


    This was not as simple as memorizingmon knowledge or reciting poetry. Otherwise, countless individuals who had entered the dream trials over many years, and the nine others who had passed the second trial before Lis, would not have all failed at this stage.


    One difficulty was how topletely memorize [Sphinx Ascension Technique], the greatest wisdom of a Legendary Arcanist. Previously, merely ncing at the core characters'' Magic Rune Sequence made Lis feel dizzy, and this was only the simplest part of the Ascension Technique. The subsequent parts, such as constructing the Virtual Divine Core, igniting the Divine Fire of will, and tempering the Elemental Divine Power, wereposed of even more intricate andplex magic runebinations.


    If not a High-level Arcanist, maybe only those with exceptional talent and extremely suitable for the path of arcane couldpletely memorize it.


    Lis estimated that even if he became a Legendary Arcanist, he wouldn''t be able to fully grasp all the content of [Sphinx Ascension Technique] in a short period. At the very least, he would need to wait until he had fully mastered the Four Pir Laws and his will had broken through to the Demigod level.


    And that was just the difficulty of memorizing the content alone. From the beginning of epting the inheritance, Lis felt the soul pressure that came with the memorization process of [Sphinx Ascension Technique].


    Knowledge is power!


    Especially the [Sphinx Ascension Technique], which almostprehends and interprets the Divine Power and authority. Just in the process of memorizing it, Lis had to continually endure the pressure it brought. Your journey continues with empire


    ```


    If Lis''s soul couldn''t withstand this kind of pressure, he would never be able toplete these hundred steps and ascend to that illusory throne!


    This might also be why the Legendary Arcanist Sphinx did not transfer the entire Sphinx Ascension Technique into Lis''s mind all at once.


    If he had done so, Lis''s soul and consciousness might have copsedpletely in the first moment.


    This is also why "Judgement me" Stephens, while teaching Lis in Bright City, did not impart too much high-end knowledge, especially that whiches after bing a legend.


    Knowing too much too soon would not be of much benefit to Lis''s growth but might instead affect his mindset towards progress.


    However, now the situation is different, Lis who has already glimpsed the wonders of the Ascension Technique will by no means give up.


    Is this the difficulty of the third trial?


    Lis looked at the remaining ny-eight steps before him with a serious expression; with each step he took, the pressure on his soul increased, until he would reach the top and fully receive the inheritance of the Sphinx Ascension Technique.


    A slight smile tugged at Lis''s lips—he hade this far, how could he possibly give up now?


    The inheritance of Sphinx opened up a new door for Lis, allowing him to truly understand the secrets at the pinnacle of the Gaia World.


    The delight of mastering knowledge, the fulfilling sensation of wielding power—these held a fatal attraction for Lis, an Arcanist.


    Come on! I want to see whates next!


    With determined eyes, Lis stepped onto the third stair and continued to receive the subsequent inheritance.


    As the inheritance progressed, the pressure on Lis''s soul became greater and epting the inheritance became more and more challenging.


    The first twenty steps of the inheritance that Lis received were about constructing a Virtual Faith Core, establishing a connection with followers, and gathering the Power of Faith.


    This part was rtively easy for Lis, who could fully memorize the content of the inheritance in about a day and imprint it in his soul.


    ...


    From the twenty-first to the sixtieth step, this part of the inheritance involved the process of constructing a virtual Divine Status, which is the most critical and core part of the Ascension Technique and the basis for all subsequent operations.


    Sphinx also made it clear in the inheritance that everyone''s virtual Divine Status is different, just like one''s unique arcane arts, and with ites the control over the power of the Divine Arts. This is no joke: any slight w or deficiency can have disastrous consequences.


    Therefore, in the Ascension Technique, Sphinx not only exined in detail every key aspect of constructing a virtual Divine Status but also recorded his own virtual Divine Status for the benefit of future generations to model upon.@@novelbin@@


    This stage was so difficult that it took Lis three days to barely memorize the inheritance of each step.
