I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means Chapter 251: 243: Sphinx Ascension Technique!

Chapter 251: Chapter 243: Sphinx Ascension Technique!

The Divine Statue in the center of the temple emitted an endless array of multicolored lights that slowly ford a colorful illusory staircase behind it, and at the end of the hundred steps, one could vaguely see a pure white throne standing there.

The Black Cat pointed to the throne at the end of the staircase and said to Lis,

“The third trial is very simple, just ascend the stairs and sit upon that throne.”

Lis surveyed the scene, then continued to ask,

“So the test is to climb the staircase?”

“Yes.”

...

The Black Cat nodded, speaking solemnly,

“Ascending each step, you will receive a part of Master Sphinx’s inheritance, and only by acquiring all of the inheritance will you be able to sit upon that final throne and receive Master Sphinx’s gifts.”

“What if I don’t pass?”

Lis asked curiously, wondering if all those who had ascended the stairs before him had received so part of that inheritance.

Because the Black Cat still needed Lis to leave the temple, its attitude was very good, a complete change from before.

“Master Sphinx has left behind a special spell in the temple, so anyone who does not pass will forget everything they have seen here, naturally including any inheritance received.”

Upon hearing this, Lis nodded, realizing that there were contingency asures in place, which was why the information about the ruins had not been leaked.

“Then I’ll go.”

Lis inford the Black Cat, and then he stepped towards the multicolored staircase.

The Black Cat lay on the bench, clasping its paws, watching Lis with eyes brimming with anticipation.

…

Lis stood before the multicolored staircase, looking at the steps suspended in mid-air and the distant throne, took a deep breath to calm himself, and then resolutely set his right foot onto the first step.

Once on the first step, Lis felt the surrounding multicolored lights converge on him and a slight pressure bestowed upon him.

As the colored light entered his brow, a piece of information appeared in Lis’s mind.

Is this the inheritance?

Lis slowly absorbed the information contained in the inheritance within his mind.

The inheritance was more astounding than Lis had anticipated.

It was the crystallization of Master Sphinx’s life’s work, as well as his greatest achievent on the path of arcane.

The Sphinx Ascension Technique!

What a commanding na!

The inheritance on the first step did not contain specific content—just an overview of the inheritance.

The Sphinx Ascension Technique was the Legendary Arcanist Sphinx’s way of using arcane to simulate the entire process of a legendary strongman’s path to divinity and aspired to achieve the vision of becoming a deity through the arcane.

This!

Even though Lis had been prepared, he was still shocked by Sphinx’s audacious idea.

If a follower of a deity were to see Sphinx’s inheritance, they would surely scoff at his foolishness, his ignorance, arrogance, and pretentiousness.

They actually want to simulate the power of the gods through arcane, which is absurdly ignorant and considered an affront and provocation to the divine dignity.

However, in Lis’s eyes, only deep admiration remained.

This is what a true Arcanist is like, daring to dream what others fear and accomplish what others cannot.

These are the true pioneers of Mages, the vanguard of spellcasters!

Lis was sowhat shaken by Sphinx’s boldness and couldn’t help but yearn for it.

One day, I too will beco such a Legendary Arcanist! Exploring the infinite and mysterious unknown.

Once he was determined, Lis began to learn about the details of the “Sphinx Ascension Technique.”

Lis had previously received general information about how normal Legendary Strongn embarked on the Path to Divinity from his family’s heavyweight, Joyce.

Generally, a Legendary on the Path to Divinity would establish a sect or a unique organization, spreading his faith and collecting the Power of Faith from believers, gradually gaining Divine Status, igniting the Divine Fire, refining Divine Power, and consolidating a Divine Position, eventually supporting a Divine Throne and raising their Divine Country into the heavens.

Only after a complete Enthronent Ceremony does one officially beco a true god.

Though gaining Divine Status, igniting the Divine Fire, and refining Divine Power are already quite difficult, they are nothing compared to the difficulty of consolidating a Divine Position.

A Divine Position is the most important core of a true god, as well as their most fundantal existence.

Legendaries who only complete the first half of the Path of God Sealing are demigods, but many demigods fail to consolidate their Divine Position until their death, and therefore, lack the qualifications of becoming true gods.

For ordinary Legendary Strongn, embarking on the Path of God Sealing might be their only hope for progress, but for an Arcanist, mastering the Foundation Principles to eventually control and command the world’s laws is the true path.

An Arcanist who embarks on the Path of God Sealing has actually chosen to give up their pursuit of arcane and henceforth cannot advance an inch further in arcane knowledge.

A person can deceive others, but never their own heart.

As beings that can master the world’s Foundation Principles, there are also limits that the world’s laws impose on Arcanists.

Therefore, Lis had not considered the option of Ascension before, but now, the Legendary Arcanist Sphinx has put forward a bold, crazy idea.

That is to simulate the power of the gods through arcane. It seems crazy, but it is not without basis; he has already traveled far on this path.

The power of the gods originates from the faith of the believers, but in the end, still relies on Gaia Great World.

Based on the power at the core of the Multi-verse, built upon the world’s laws.

Thus, Sphinx uses the power of the Four Pillar Laws he masters to simulate divine power, after all, the Four Elents are the foundation of the world and the source of all Extraordinary Power.

The “Sphinx Ascension Technique” is based on the Four Pillar Laws of earth, water, fire, and wind and uses special Magic Runes to construct a virtual Divine Status for the Arcanist, allowing the collection of Power of Faith generated during believers’ prayers and the refinent of special Elental Divine Power through the Divine Fire of will.

This is equivalent to an extrely unique arcane, an application of the Four Pillar Laws, thus allowing it to bypass the world’s restrictions on Arcanists.

That is what the “Sphinx Ascension Technique” has accomplished so far. As for the later processes of consolidating Divine Position and elevating the Divine Country, Sphinx didn’t have enough ti to attempt them because creating the first half of the technique had already exhausted all his energy and ti.

Even so, this Legendary Arcanist left behind speculations regarding what cos after. The socalled “Wisdom” Divine Position was just his jest.

Owing to the uniqueness of the “Sphinx Ascension Technique,” the refined divine strength is based on Elental Divine Power of the Four Pillar Laws, so one might only be able to gain Divine Domains related to the Four Elents. However, this is not absolute; Sphinx speculated if one could integrate more Power of Law, it might be possible to acquire other Divine Domains, but that exploration is left to the successors.

After consolidating a Divine Position, the process of God Sealing and elevating the Divine Country should be smooth sailing without difficulty.

This is the “Sphinx Ascension Technique!”

This is the most magnificent treasure left by the Legendary Arcanist Sphinx!
