"Oh, you are finally here! I see that you have co for your daily lesson, let's start at once!"
"Yes…"
I uncontrollably replied as I looked at the bearded elder before , who had a bright and kind smile on his face, as his hands got closer to my… forehead.
"Now, let guide you on practicing 'Aerial Sword'..."
`~~`~~`~~`
A few minutes earlier…
After I was done picking up tos at the three libraries, I had already returned to the central division, which didn't take much ti with Wind dropping there as I took my stack of covered tos and went into my own courtyard with haste as I started testing imdiately.
Firstly, I started with confirming the established fact that opening the to again didn't activate 'Archaic Guidance' anymore, which seed to be completely true yet not easily explainable. Just why was such a process of the 'Archaic Guidance' only activating when soone opened a to for the very first ti?
It naturally didn't make sense for a special inherited tool to have a function that has no use whatsoever.
Of course, I didn't dwell on this fact much as I started with using my 'Telekinetic Force' to check up the Wind technique to.
Probing the book in its closed state imdiately proved useless as the cover itself didn't seem to hold anything special, there wasn't even a hint of ntal energy on it, however…
That was only the case for its outer part!
As soon as I flipped the cover open, the inner paper padded part of it imdiately invoked a reaction!
Particles of ntal energy started to latch into my own ntal energy as they seed to be moving at light speed and heading directly to the place where all the ntal energy was stored, my mind space.
While the reaction was fast, it wasn't at the speed which I couldn't react to, but I didn't do anything in hope not to screw it especially after I received a reaction at the very first try. It wasn't like I wouldn't be capable of destroying these ntality particles once they entered my mind space in the case they were hostile like I did to the cult's representative after all.
Observing the particles' behaviour once they entered my mind space made a lot worried, as they seed to be under an inhibition or a weakening of so sort, apparently losing the hyperactivity that appeared with the first interaction.
'It can't be that my 'Telekinetic Force' is too much for it, right…?'
I quickly shot down my first assumption as it felt too unbelievable. After all, this was supposed to be an ancient to that invaded my mind space earlier and even transmitted a whole ntal vision without even noticing it till I was inside of it, so why would that prove to be so hard now all of the sudden.
It was true that the ntal energy stored in the to could have weakened with ti, but that forced ntal vision was applied for so many tis just today, which ant…
Shshshsh!
'This…'
Hearing a strange noise in my head, I suddenly noticed that sothing foreign was moving within my own mind space, and it wasn't the particles that entered just now!
However, as if it was exactly waiting for this mont, the particles followed the sa pattern as they seed to restore their energetic behaviour as they t with the source of the other foreign movent.
This ti, the speed was actually beyond my own control, but it still didn't seem to carry any hostile intent either so I observed once more as both foreign particles fused with each other before receiving a strange sensation signal…
It was the lock and key sequence!
It was only at this point that I realized the source of the other foreign particles as well as the answer to my recent question as my body had once again entered a ntal vision state…
`~~`~~`~~`
"Hah… hah…"
'This is slightly different than I expected…'
Having just gone through what seed to be the true 'Archaic Guidance', I confird my initial guess about what Wind described as the 'Archaic Guidance' itself...
It was actually a signing up session!
The flash of realization that I received as soon as I opened a book was the source of the other foreign ntality particles that were sitting still inside my mind space before I even tried using my ntal energy to probe the to.
The way that lock and key sequence of both ntality particles operated seed to be similar to the act of an ID verifier who was verifying a new ID, and considering the fact that I was imdiately sent into that ntal vision as soon as that process was done confird it even more.
Furthermore, the first part of the ntal vision itself worked as if it was a short recorded introductory video as the nice seeming elder just greeted with a general ssage before putting his hand on my forehead, which sent into the body that wasn't mine…
The body was naturally practicing the technique in the to and fighting actual targets using it, as if it was an extended version of the 'one-second' version that applied once opened the book for the very first ti.
The concept was surely very similar to the preview and full video sche of 'tube' videos back from reality, and the idea itself seed very refreshing.
'It has been exactly one hour…'
Checking the ti on the status panel, I couldn't help but reach a sowhat bold assumption…
Considering how the whole true 'Archaic Guidance' operated, with it even lasting for exactly 1 hour… couldn't it be that this was actually the standard teaching thod that the old powerhouses, which these tos were inherited from, employed to teach their own apprentices?
What if they actually made these tos so that they wouldn't have to do the repeated 'ntal Guidance Sessions' themselves like the elders did in the 'Elental Blade Sect' and instead made them self-learnable to exchange for efficiency?
In a sense, if that assumption was true, then it would make sense that the system just degraded as the current elders and division masters were barely using the original thod of guidance due to all apprentices being unable to use the tos.
As for why they weren't, the only way I could think of was that they possibly because they didn't manage to obtain the complete ID as they didn't last for a whole second during the 'Archaic Guidance' preview, which seed to at least contain one full execution of the technique!
'The 'Archaic Guidance' itself is so much more helpful as well…'
Unlike the one-second preview during which I was unable to even rember the circulation sequence of elents and weapon energy, this ti, although I didn't get the whole experience due to the detached feeling of being in soone else's body, I could say that I already obtained so of the basics of the starting up sequence!
'Let's test the other tos first then!'
After discovering this thod's brilliance, I was naturally more eager to confirm its general effectiveness, and since I wasn't so much in a hurry anymore with this thod to help, knowing more about it undoubtedly ca first!
