Chapter 272 - 227: Learning Ancient Divine Language
====
Skill Name: Six-Character Mantra (Demon Suppression Spell)
Description: A Word Spirit Secret Skill activated by the Ancient Divine Language. It is initiated with the six syllables "Om Mani Padme Hum." Spoken Words Become Seal, invoking the Power of Heaven and Earth to apply suppression, binding, restraining, and sealing effects on a selected target.
Note 1: This skill cannot be upgraded. Using this skill consumes no personal power, but it does consume a certain amount of Spiritual Power and can only be used once per day.
Note 2: The stronger the user, the more powerful the effect of the Six-Character Mantra. In certain situations or special environments, the skill’s effect may be diminished or even nullified.

’Om Mani Padme Hum, the Six-Character True Mantra Demon Suppression Spell? Isn’t that just the Six-Character Great Bright Mantra from Tibetan Buddhism? So it needs the Ancient Divine Language to be activated...’
Wang Yi recalled reading Journey to the West. It seemed that the Five Finger Mountain that pinned Sun Wukong only worked because of this six-character spell. Without it, the Sun Monkey could have toppled the mountain in an instant.
’Did Tathagata Buddha learn the Ancient Divine Language, or did Wu Chengen? This is getting pretty esoteric... I’m probably overthinking it. It’s just a skill created by the system!’
Gaining another skill still made Wang Yi very happy. It also made him feel that the Ancient Divine Language was worth studying. The language was genuinely useful; it was like programming the world directly, no different from a high-dimensional programming language. If he could master it, he would become an absolute top-tier expert.
’Studying at this Civilization Academy is actually great. I just don’t know if I’ll have the chance in the future... This Civilization Academy must be a very high-level organization, perhaps even a transcendent existence!’
Wang Yi made a mental note. He then looked at the Golden Scroll left by Mr. Wa. It was a [Deportation Scroll] with only one effect: upon use, it would immediately return him and his subordinates to their original territory and sever the connection to the Corridor of Chaos.
This was a life-saving item!
If he never used it, the Scroll would automatically disappear after he left the Corridor of Chaos.
He had gotten what he wanted, but the other students were dejected. They received no rewards and didn’t learn the Ancient Divine Language. It was safe to say they had completely wasted three days.
They left the classroom, cursing and grumbling, to find the teleportation passage to the next station.
Not wanting to waste time either, Wang Yi led Li Longyu and the others to quickly find the exit light balls. There were three of them: one leading to the Four-Star Station, Starry Sky Sword Forging Valley; one to the Five-Star Station, Starry Sky Demon-locking Tower; and one to the Well of Descent in a Four-Star Station’s Newbie World.
A prompt indicated that upon arriving at these three locations, they could participate in sword forging, visit a hundred demons, or experience "descent bungee jumping!"
It seemed none of the opportunities were particularly significant.
Moreover, the Well of Descent was limited to one person, and the spot had already been taken. Now, only two Teleportation Light Balls were still active, meaning the only destinations left were the Starry Sky Sword Forging Valley and the Starry Sky Demon-locking Tower.
At this moment, everyone was trying to leave through those two exits, causing a chaotic queue to form in front of the light balls.
’Both stations are in the Starry Sky, and the rewards for entering them are pretty average. I have a Deportation Scroll now... should I use another Information Scroll and go to a Seven-Star Secret Realm?’
After careful consideration, Wang Yi decided to take the risk.
He called everyone to his side, took out the Information Scroll he had received for escorting Li Longyu through three stations, and with a thought, he and his group were teleported in front of a volcano.
Smoke billowed from the volcano’s peak, and the ground trembled as if it could erupt at any moment.
"Ding! You have arrived at the 10th Station!"
"Ding! Welcome to the Earthfire Mountain Area in the Molten Fire World. The difficulty of this station is Seven-Star. A True Origin Spirit Gathering Array has been established in this region. The array continuously draws power from the earth’s ley lines to condense Earth Fire Source Liquid. While exploring this area, you have a chance to collect Earth Fire Source Liquid, but beware of the Tribulation Fire Beasts that roam freely here."
"Ding! Tip: The condition for clearing this station is to collect 10 tons of Earth Fire Source Liquid. You have been issued one Earth Fire Source Liquid Collection Gourd. Once 10 tons of Earth Fire Source Liquid have been collected, it will be automatically submitted to the system, and you will be rewarded with one special Purple Treasure Chest. The entrance to the next station will then open immediately."
"Ding! You have escorted the story character Li Longyu through nine stations. Quest complete. Reward: one Chaotic World Royal Court Information Scroll, one Purple Blind Box, one Purple Chaos Egg."
"Ding! Li Longyu’s story quest has been updated: escort her to the Chaotic World Royal Court. Upon completion, you will be rewarded with one Li Longyu Information Scroll, one Golden Blind Box, and one Golden Chaos Egg."
Following the system prompts, four items appeared before Wang Yi: the temporary quest item [Earth Fire Source Liquid Collection Gourd], an Information Scroll, a Purple Blind Box, and a Purple Chaos Egg.
Wang Yi put away the [Earth Fire Source Liquid Collection Gourd] and the Purple Blind Box for now and inspected the Attribute Information of the other two items.
[Information Scroll: The Chaotic World Royal Court event can be activated in each Newbie World, but only once. The activation conditions vary, but there is only one Chaotic World Royal Court. The number of World Secret Treasures within is limited, and their quality differs. In each Newbie World, only the first to enter will be eligible to obtain one World Secret Treasure. The earlier you enter, the more likely you are to obtain a high-quality Secret Treasure. After the 10th Station, using this Scroll will allow you to immediately teleport to a 9-star station.]
[Chaos Egg: Purple quality. Consumes 100 points of Chaos Energy to hatch a loyal Territory Servant Beast for you. This Servant Beast excels at treasure hunting and mining, possesses a Storage Realm, and will have three skills.]
’Not bad. Maybe I should open the Purple Blind Box now, too...’
Wang Yi mused silently.
But just then, several miles away, beneath a volcano and deep within the lava, a massive, fiery serpent’s head suddenly emerged from the molten rock.
"The reincarnation of the Starry Sky God... has the one I’ve awaited finally appeared?"
The giant serpent actually spoke in a sharp, human voice.
