According to the information Lu Xiao checked, the comic version of Gu Yi is a Tibetan Chinese, male, who has lived in seclusion in the Himalayas for a long time, and his real name is Yao.
The movie version abandoned the original setting, not only changing the gender of Ancient One to female, but also describing her as a Celtic.
Even Kama Taj, no one knows the specific age of Ancient One. She seems to be immortal. Over the thousands of years, she has taught countless generations of mages to guard Kama Taj and the mysterious world of the earth.
"master……"
Before Daniel could finish what he said, Gu Yi waved the folding fan to him with a smile: "Daniel, I already know the whole story. Thank you for your hard work. Go and do your own thing first."
Daniel was not surprised by Gu Yi's omniscience and omnipotence. He calmly saluted Gu Yi again, and finally began to "draw circles" in the void in front of Lu Xiao.
Lu Xiao had been looking forward to this magical teleportation spell. When he saw Daniel starting to use the hanging ring to build a teleportation gate, his attention immediately turned to it.
Daniel's left hand wearing the hanging ring was stretched naturally, and his right hand drew a circle in mid-air rhythmically and uniformly.
After about five circles, a few golden energy sparks gradually formed the frame of the portal, and an oval passage connecting to an unknown space appeared in front of Daniel.
Finally, he cupped his fists and bowed to Gu Yi. Daniel stepped into the other side of the passage. The energy sparks quickly dissipated and the passage was closed.
Lu Xiao's expression of amazement was undisguised, "It's really amazing."
Gu Yi did not interrupt Lu Xiao's viewing, and did not ask until Daniel disappeared completely: "Young man named Lu Xiao, where are you from?"
The simple pendant hanging on Gu Yi's chest opened a gap, and the bright green light shined through it. Gu Yi's eyes were dyed with the same color as a result, and he looked at Lu Xiao with deep eyes.
Under the gaze of the Supreme Mage, Lu Xiao felt like he was completely seen through. His powerful sixth sense made him very uncomfortable with Gu Yi's peek.
Fortunately, Gu Yi quickly withdrew his scrutinizing gaze and continued with a playful expression: "Interesting, your past can only be traced back to standing alone in the Himalayas, and beyond that there is only a blank."
"That's fine."
Gu Yi calmly closed the folding fan and knocked it on his hand with a "pop" sound.
"Kama Taj doesn't care about the past of those who participate in the trial. I will confirm your character, moral character, and whether you have the qualifications to become a guardian of the secrets during the trial."
"Come with me."
Ancient Yi turned around and waved his left arm. Daniel needed to concentrate and draw circles several times to construct the completed space channel. There was almost no obstacle in Ancient Yi's hands, and the construction was completed with just a wave of his hand.
Moreover, Lu Xiao noticed a detail with his keen eyesight: Gu Yi did not wear a hanging ring on his hand to assist in opening the space door.
On the other side of the portal was a simple hall. When Lu Xiao followed Gu Yi into the portal, Gu Yi, who was in front of her just now, suddenly disappeared, and her voice came from behind Lu Xiao.
"The first trial begins, concentrate!"
Before Lu Xiao could react, a huge force suddenly came from behind him, and Lu Xiao subconsciously staggered forward two steps.
Lu Xiao, who was confused, turned around and questioned: "Master Gu Yi, are you... hmm?"
Lu Xiao turned his head and opened his mouth in surprise. In his subjective sight, he saw his other self sitting softly on the ground with Gu Yi's support.
"this……"
Lu Xiao stretched out his hands in astonishment and took a closer look. His whole body was glowing with a strange and hazy light, which seemed to be somewhat translucent.
"Don't panic."
After Gu Yi settled Lu Xiao's body, he explained calmly: "I pushed your soul out of the body, and now you are in soul form."
"Trial 1, a test of soul strength and willpower."
Gu Yi sat cross-legged on the soft carpet and explained to Lu Xiao seriously: "Many people have misunderstandings about Kama Taj. They think we are mages or wizards."
"Actually, Kama Taj cultivates mystics, which is quite different from the wizards in Western tradition who wield a staff and cast spells."
"Mystics need to draw magic power from the endless universe to cast spells, but the universe we live in has too many temptations. If the soul strength and willpower are not strong enough, it is easy to be seduced and corrupted by some dark existences."
Gu Yi looked at Lu Xiao's soul body thoughtfully: "The soul body is solid, the will is firm, there is no panic after the soul is separated from the body, and the acceptance of unknown things is very high. You have passed this level."
Gu Yi's right hand, glowing with light, pulled towards Lu Xiao's soul body. In the blink of an eye, Lu Xiao's soul returned to his body.
Seeing Lu Xiao groping around on his body in shock, Gu Yi understood and gave him about a minute to adapt before continuing: "The next step is trial two."
Gu Yi took Lu Xiao's hand and opened the portal again. This time the two of them appeared in front of a closed bronze door.
The Supreme Mage waved her hands continuously, multiple chakras merged and reorganized in her complex gestures, and the same seal pattern appeared on the bronze door in unison.
"Crunch~"
A strange gust of wind blew out of the open door, and Lu Xiao's sixth sense frantically warned him.
Gu Yi put one hand behind his back and stretched the other hand towards the door to signal Lu Xiao: "Please come in, I hope you can successfully pass the test of the Asking Heart Hall."
‘Ask the Heart Palace…’
The Chinese language is broad and profound, and you can roughly guess the content of the second trial from this name.
Sure enough, as soon as Lu Xiaogan stepped into the hall, the howling wind began to wrap around him.
Whispers full of negative emotions echoed in his ears. Resentment, jealousy, anger, these unknown and strange existences polluted Lu Xiao's heart with countless negative emotions.
Having experienced the world of Assassin's Creed, Lu Xiao's willpower has been well tempered through her daily understanding of Assassin's Creed.
Since it is a question of mind test, as long as you stick to your true mind and are not affected by the sounds around you, you should be able to pass this test smoothly.
Lu Xiaofang emptied his mind and entered an ethereal meditative state, eliminating many negative emotions in the Wenxin Hall.
"Very good, you also passed the second trial."
After pulling Lu Xiao out of the Wenxin Hall, Gu Yi had a little more expectation on his face.
"The last item is the actual combat trial."
Lu Xiao was brought to the training ground of Karma Taj, and the occult apprentices present respectfully saluted Gu Yi with cupped fists.
Ancient One smiled and nodded to his apprentices, while pointing to the side of the training ground with his folding fan.
"A mystic is not a hermit who lives behind closed doors. In order to protect the earth, we will always face threats from inside and outside the planet. You need to..."
"clang!"
Before Gu Yi finished speaking, the buzzing of the big clock suddenly came from the sky above Kama Taj.
The sudden warning bell made Gu Yi's face darken, and the occult apprentices on the training ground looked up to the sky in a panic.
A slowly rotating huge golden chakra emerged in mid-air, and a holographic image appeared in front of everyone.
Ancient Yi's eyes narrowed slightly. In the picture, a mystic fortress with the defense barrier fully opened was under attack.
Judging from the modern streetscape around the fortress, it seems that the fortress is located in the downtown area of a certain city.
"The London Temple is under attack, the enemy..."
Ancient One identified the purple-skinned humanoids that were attacking the temple barrier: "Sure enough, they are Dormammu's minions again."
