Chapter 87 The Secret Pavilion
The Mystic Pavilion, located at the deepest part of the Magic City Superpower Academy, is a standalone seven-story tower.
The entire building is constructed of dark blue ancient stone, which gleams with a faint, dark golden glow when the morning light shines on it.
The tower has no windows on the west side, only the top dome, which is inlaid with a fist-sized white crystal, and a halo of light envelops the entire building.
Lin Yuan stood at the entrance of the tower and looked up.
"I thought this Secret Techniques Pavilion was like the magnificent, sutra-storage pavilion in fantasy novels, filled with cultivation techniques."
Is the result really that ordinary?
The building in front of me looks more like an ancient tomb that has been silent for thousands of years, with a very heavy sense of vicissitude.
Shen Man did not go in with Lin Yuan.
The Mystic Pavilion has an ironclad rule that only authorized individuals are allowed to enter alone, and this has never been broken in hundreds of years.
She leaned against the grassy slope outside the tower, took out her phone, and sent a message to Lin Yuan.
"Don't be nervous when you go in. The Mystic Pavilion will automatically sense your abilities and match you with whatever you are assigned. You can't choose."
Focus on feeling, don't let your mind wander.
Lin Yuan glanced at the message Shen Man sent, then put his phone into his spatial ring.
He took a deep breath and pushed open the heavy bronze door.
The door slowly closed behind them, making a series of low, resonant sounds.
The space inside the tower is far more vast than it appears from the outside.
It's not just ordinary spaciousness, but a vastness created by folding space, with the dome so high that its top is invisible.
The air was filled with a dry, ancient scent.
Beneath Lin Yuan's feet was a solid black stone slab, engraved with intricate magic array patterns, which alternated between light and dark with his breathing.
"This is the Mystic Arts Pavilion..."
Lin Yuan muttered to himself.
As soon as the words were spoken, the crystal in the dome suddenly burst into light!
The runes throughout the entire tower were instantly awakened, bursting forth with a dazzling dark golden aura.
Immediately afterwards, countless rays of light converged from all directions in the west, firmly enveloping Lin Yuan.
This is the Secret Art Pavilion's sensing mechanism activated!
A gentle yet powerful force surged into Lin Yuan's body from the magic array beneath his feet.
This force was not aggressive; it was simply probing him thoroughly.
The types, quality, cultivation level, number of bone tempering cycles, and combat styles of superpowers were all thoroughly understood.
Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
The next second, the surrounding runes spun wildly, and countless streams of light rushed through the tower, causing the entire building to tremble slightly.
The light flashed by on the first floor without lingering.
On the second floor, the third floor, and the west building, the runes lit up layer by layer and then went out layer by layer, clearly indicating that a selection process was being conducted.
On the fifth floor, the speed at which the runes flowed began to slow down. Several streaks of light hovered above Lin Yuan's head for a moment before finally drifting upwards.
On the sixth floor, the entire floor shone brightly, and an incredibly powerful energy wave pressed down.
Lin Yuan could sense that at least three S-rank lightning-type secret techniques were hidden here.
But the Mystic Pavilion still did not choose to stop.
These S-rank secret techniques only shone for three seconds before being forcibly extinguished by the power above.
Seventh floor, top floor!
Suddenly, all the runes in the entire Mystic Pavilion went out.
In an instant, absolute darkness enveloped Lin Yuan's surroundings.
It was pitch black; the Western Zhou Dynasty was so quiet that one could only hear their own heartbeat echoing through the tower.
Immediately afterwards, a point of dark golden light slowly shone from the highest point of the dome.
The light slowly descended, landing steadily in front of Lin Yuan.
It was a tattered piece of animal hide, only the size of a palm, with jagged edges.
The animal hide was covered with golden patterns that moved slowly, each pattern containing a terrifying power of thunder.
Suddenly, an ancient and domineering aura swept over us.
The Xuanjin Azure Lightning within Lin Yuan's body instantly surged wildly.
[S-Rank Secret Technique Detected - Thunder Emperor Technique (Fragment)]
This secret technique is a fragment of the ancient Thunder Emperor's legacy, with only the first three forms remaining.
Although it is an incomplete piece, its quality far surpasses that of ordinary S-rank secret techniques. Would you accept its inheritance?
A system notification sounded in Lin Yuan's mind.
Lin Yuan stared at the tattered animal hide scroll, a smile involuntarily creeping onto his lips.
"accept!"
The moment the two words were uttered, the tattered animal hide scroll emitted a dazzling light!
Countless dark golden rays surged forth, transforming into three streams of light, each shooting into Lin Yuan's brow.
The first stream of light entered his body, and Lin Yuan's consciousness exploded.
Before his eyes appeared an endless sea of lightning, within which stood a blurry giant, clad in dark golden lightning armor and wielding a long weapon.
Just by standing there, the lightning around him distorted the entire world!
[First Form - Thunder Emperor's Descent: Activates Thunder Emperor state, unleashing a concentrated burst of power in a short period.]
[Thunder Emperor's base stat boosts: Thunder power +15%, increased speed, enhanced physical resilience, reduced source energy consumption, and significantly increased resistance to mental and illusion magic.]
Duration: 5 minutes (increases with skill level)
[Cooldown time: 60 minutes]
Immediately afterwards, a second stream of light entered Lin Yuan's brow.
【Second Form - Mighty Force: Gathers the power of the Thunder Emperor state to unleash a fatal blow, with an armor-shattering effect, ignoring all defenses, armor, and shields of the same or lower rank.
When the quality of a lightning-type ability is higher than that of the opponent, it can break through armor of a higher tier.
Soon, a third stream of light also surged in.
【Third Form - Thunder Emperor Armor: Dark golden thunder armor condenses on the body surface, capable of withstanding a full-force attack from an opponent of the same level.】
When the lightning armor shatters, it triggers a lightning explosion, dealing lightning damage to enemies within a three-meter radius and inflicting a paralyzing effect.

All three streams of light entered his body, their ancient and domineering aura filling Lin Yuan's entire consciousness space.
The dantian, meridians, and bones frantically absorbed this power.
The "Mysterious Golden Thunder" was completely ignited, and the dark golden lightning illuminated the entire Mystic Pavilion.
This is the original thunder power of the ancient Thunder Emperor, a gift inherited from his own lineage, which automatically flowed into Lin Yuan's body.
Lin Yuan immediately sat down cross-legged and focused all his energy on guiding this violent energy.
Dark golden lightning surged through his meridians, breaking through layers of constraints wherever it passed.
"Click."
Click...
[Lightning-type Ability: Tier 2, Level 1 → Tier 2, Level 2]
This residual energy had not yet dissipated and rushed directly into the realm of spacetime supernatural abilities.
The power of lightning and the power of spacetime did not repel each other; instead, they resonated in a strange way.
Its spacetime ability operated on its own, with silver light and dark gold lightning intertwining and spreading throughout its body.
[Space-Time System Ability: Tier 1, Level 8 → Tier 1, Level 9]
The light emanating from the entire Mystic Pavilion slowly faded.
Only Lin Yuan's body was surrounded by a continuous flow of dark golden light, and his aura was several times stronger than before.
The incomplete inheritance of the Thunder Emperor's Law has been fully imprinted!
Outside the Mystic Pavilion, on the Lingguang Grass Slope.
Shen Man leaned against a broad-leaved tree, glanced at her phone, and saw that it was already 10 a.m.
She yawned, having just finished the last sip of her milk tea.
Suddenly, I felt an extremely domineering aura erupting from the top floor of the Mystic Pavilion.
Although the breath quickly disappeared, it made her grip the milk tea cup tightly.
"This aura... it's definitely not an ordinary S-rank secret technique. Could it be... that century-old fragment?!"
