The Lord Of Mysteries
Chapter 32: The Vision of the Spirit

Klein looked at the dark blue gelatinous liquid, finding it difficult to describe it as a block or cup of liquid. He swallowed his saliva and said with great difficulty, "Did I just drink it?

"Didn't you need any other preparation? Like rituals, mantras, or prayers?"

Old Neil briefly admitted before saying, "Preparation? There are. Get a cup of Intis Aurmir wine, suck on a Desi cigar, then whistle a casual song, and dance a cheerful court dance.You can do a tap dance if you want it. Finally, play one round of Gwent cards…"

When he saw Klein's expression turn dumbfounded, Old Neil laughed and concluded what he had just said.

"If you're nervous."

…You're pretty funny, aren't you…? The corner of Klein's mouth twitched as he resisted the urge to pull his weapon.

He put down his wand and stretched out his right hand. As if he was holding something heavy, he lifted the frosted cup. The smell of the potion was faint and seemed to be subtle.

"Lad, don't hesitate. The more you doubt, the more nervous and fearful you will become. It will only affect the subsequent absorption" Old Neil said with his back facing Klein. It was as if he was saying it casually.

It is not known when he arrived near a nearby water pool. He turned on the tap and washed his hands.

Klein nodded silently and took a deep breath. Just as he came back when he was a child, he pinched his nose and drank it like medicine. He moved the frosted cup to his mouth and tilted his head, drinking it with a gulp.

A cold and smooth feeling quickly filled his mouth cavity. It then flowed through his throat and into his stomach.

The dark blue sticky liquid seemed to grow thin and long tentacles, bringing stimulation and a chill to every cell in Klein's body.

He could not help but twitch as his vision quickly became blurred. All colors look saturated. Red is red, blue is blue, and black is black. The rich colors blend together like an impressionist painting.

Klein had seen such a scene before. That was back when he was questioned by Spirit Medium, Daly.

At that moment, his vision became blurred and although his mind felt light, it was clear. He felt like an outcast floating in the sea.

Slowly, his surroundings changed into visible. All colors returned to the original as a grayish and hazy mist emanated.

All around him were corpses that he was difficult to describe. There are transparent things that don't seem to exist. Deep down, there were clusters of clean light of different colors. Light seems to have life or contains vast knowledge.

This was a little similar to what I saw during the luck enhancement ritual.. As Klein instinctively looked down, he realized that 'he' was still standing in his original place, his body convulsing.

Suddenly, he realized, causing his consciousness to suddenly sink and fuse with it.

The explosion!

The fog quickly disappears when the color returns to normal. The bright and clear halo and the non-existent objects instantly disappeared.

The scene in the alchemy room returned to normal, but Klein felt his head swell. He felt like he was being pulled apart. Whatever he saw had countless shadows. His ears were covered by a smooth murmur.

"Hornacis.. Flegrea. Hornacis…"

Klein felt a piercing pain on his forehead as he quickly thought of causing destruction to vent the discomfort within him.

He frowned and hurriedly shook his head.

"Is your vision abnormal? Do you also hear things you don't normally hear?" old Neil said, beside him with a hidden smile.

"Yes, Mr Neil, what should I do?" Klein tolerated the intense mania and asked.

Old Neil chuckled.

"This is the seepage of potion energy produced.you have no means to control it. All right, do as I say. Think of an object in your mind, something common. Make it simple and easy."

Klein quickly focused as he imagined his halved hat woven from black silk. He remembered the feeling when he touched it and its exact shape.

"Put all your focus on him. Keep repeating that while making an outline. Does it feel a little better?" Old Neil's voice penetrated into his mind like a quiet song.

Klein shifted his focus little by little to the hat he imagined. He felt the whisper subside into a whisper before disappearing. The shadows he saw were also stacked against each other and no longer looked blurry.

"Much better," Klein said after calming his mind of the chaotic emotions and exhaling.

He looked down at his body and discovered that nothing abnormal had happened.

He moved his limbs and with half anticipation and half hesitation, asked, "I made it? I'm now considered a fortune teller?"

Old Neil took out a mercury plate like a mirror and pushed it in front of him.

"Look at your eyes."

Klein focused his gaze and saw that he was wearing a black hat. His body lines bulged out and his facial features looked normal. Other than her face that was covered in sweat, she did not look any different in any way.

He followed Old Neil's instructions and carefully looked into his eyes. It was only then that he discovered that his brown eyes had become significantly deeper. It was so deep that it was like malam—one in total darkness. It felt so deep that it could absorb the souls of others.

Usually, dark brown pupils are easily recognized as black. Without looking very carefully, even Klein himself would not notice it.

"This is a physical manifestation of the potion's power. When you learn Cogitation and how to unite your powers, your eyes will return to normal." Old Neil smiled as he extended his right hand. "Congratulations, our new Beyonder, our Seer."

"Thank you." Klein stretched out his hand and shook it. "Sir Neil, when can I learn Cogitate?"

"You can learn it now. The initial step of Cogitation is relatively simple. Especially for Beyonders," Old Neil said with a smile. "Just now, producing an object in your mind to distract you and turn the energy seeping into is actually the first step towards Cogitation. Try it again."

Klein closed his eyes and once again, his mind described the halved hat.

His concentration seemed easier to focus than before. Immediately, the random thoughts that appeared would quickly disappear, leaving the outer lines of the hat.

"Let your brain be a little empty. Exchange the object you imagine. Use something that doesn't exist in this world, the object you imagine is completely out of thin air."

"You have to follow these rules. Only by doing that can you enter Cogitation, only then can you surpass the concept of 'I.' 'The infinite 'I' will become one with the universe, giving you the ability to see and understand the truth. In the domain of the study of mysticism, it is called the Mystical Experience, "said Old Neil using a soothing tone. "You just need to listen to the description I'll get later. The most important thing is to get into Cogitation."

However, regardless of how he outlined it or imagined it, he ended up just focusing his attention.

It didn't seem like it would work. Klein had no choice but to let his imagination run wild. Him

deciphering the ball of light and then many similar objects, collect it.

The light balls are stacked against each other. It feels like a fantasy object. Klein's mind gradually turned smooth and floating.

His body and mind became calm. Objects that seemed to be non-existent, fog with clusters of bright light, and complex colors appeared once again. They floated in the sky within close range.

He expanded his spirituality inch by inch as he stared at them calmly. He felt it and accepted it.

"That's great. As expected of a fortune teller. You entered Kogasi very smoothly. You were just a little worse than me back then. A little bit" Old Neil said with a chuckle. "In that case, I will begin to teach you the most common, easiest to understand, and most useful abilities of the future in mysticism. Vision of the Spirit!"

He turned off the gas lights one after another but opened the door to the alchemy room. It made a place where Klein darkened, but did not fail to see the silhouette of the object.

"alright. In your present state, raise your hand and place it before your eyes. Your index fingers should be facing each other, but they should not touch.

"Open your eyes and stay open until you get used to the darkness."

Klein completed each step according to Old Neil's description. He looked at the silhouette of his fingers and the objects around him.

"Actually, you have to lie down so that your body is completely relaxed. But since your Cogitation effect isn't bad, let's move on." Old Neil laughed. "Focus your gaze on one point behind your hand. It has to be in the back. Then, slowly move your fingers and maintain the same pose without touching it. Also, don't pull it out of your sight."

Klein calmly listened to him and directed his gaze to the empty spot behind his palm. He then slowly moved his index finger into his vision.

Once, twice, three times.Suddenly, Klein saw a fiery red color between his fingers.

"Eh.." He let out a voice.

"You see color? Thas right. That was the first step towards Spirit Vision. The color you see is your aura" Old Neil said with a chuckle. "Don't rush. Do it a few more times. After stabilizing it, look elsewhere.I will also take this opportunity to explain to you the different meanings of different colors."

"Good." Klein moved his fingers forward and backward while training his eyesight on the red flames.

Old Neil thought for a moment before saying, "To put it simply, the main way of mysticism is to divide the non-physical part of man into four levels. At its core is the Spirit Body, which is also the basic spirituality of every person. There is a school of thought that believes that all biological beings have spirituality and have a Spirit Body.

"i'm not sure about anything else, but for Mystery Pryers, the purpose of Cogitation and methods to increase our strength are directed to the Spirit Body.

"Outside of the Spirit Body is the Astral Projection. This was the Spirit Body's means of communicating with the spirit world and with the star space. It was considered an external manifestation of the Spirit Body. In addition, it will be directly related to your personal ambitions and your dominant emotions… The scene you saw after drinking the potion was the scene your Astral Projection saw while wandering around in the spirit world. The world does not obey the laws of the physical world. It involves going beyond the concepts of the infinite 'I, ' 'I', and 'I' of the Universe. The past, present, and future may be stacked against each other and that is the source of the prophecy.

"In the spirit world, all you see is images, symbols. You have to interpret it to understand its true meaning.

"Valignments and many magic spells were cast through the Astral Projection.

"Don't misrepresent its relationship and difference to the Spirit Body."

One was just a body and the other to form. Klein continued to look at the aura between his fingertips and made a simple conclusion.

"More is the Body of Heart and Mind. From this point on, it will merge with the physical body.It engages your brain and is an overall manifestation of your inferential abilities, your analytical abilities, your observational abilities, and identification abilities. Some herbs will especially increase this. Quite a number of magic spells were targeting him as well."

Old Neil explained in great detail, "The outermost layer is Ether Body. It is a manifestation of your vital energy and physical form."

"The color of the aura you see is an external phenomenon of your Ether Body. In other words, in addition to the spiritual bodies, ghosts, and ghosts that you can see directly with Spirit Vision, it might also include certain existences that you should not see. you can also see the Ether Bodies of others or their auras. From its thickness, brightness, and color, you can determine their health and emotional state.

"When your Spirit's Vision increases and you understand more of the knowledge of mysticism, you will be able to find more details.

“By the way, the emotional state that I mentioned will also manifest due to your Astral Projection. As you ascend higher in the Sequence, your Spirit Sight will reach a relatively high stage. You can even see other people's Astral Projections. That's the way, you'll learn more things. This was a level that only the Oracle and Mystery Digger could reach.

"Some people even claim that the strongest form of Spirit Vision allows one to see anything anywhere, including the past and the future. But I'm skeptical about it."

It sounded quite powerful. Klein almost became excited.

Old Neil coughed and continued, "Let's go back to Ether's body and the color of his aura. The limbs and parts needed to move will appear red. The surface of your head and brain will appear purple. The spots that discharge feces will appear orange The digestive system will appear yellow The heart and other regulatory systems will appear green The throat and other parts of the nervous system will appear blue The body is fully balanced will make the white-robed body a symbol of health.

“Once it becomes dark or the thickness is thinning, the color will change. It signifies that the place in question has turned into a problem. It means tired or sick.

In addition, the inner layers of Astral Projection represent the dominant emotions. Red means passion and joy. Orange means warmth and contentment. Yellow means happiness and openness. Green means peace and quiet. Blue means the coldness and stillness that exist in the mind. White means brightness, the desire to expand. Dark colors mean worry, sadness, and silence. Purple means that spirituality controls leadership, cold, and alienation…"

Klein silently recalled the information and stabilized his initial Spirit Vision.

"Good, you can see other things." Old Neil did not speak any further as he nodded.

Klein slowly turned his head and looked at Old Neil. Indeed, he saw different colors on different parts of his body. The aura was thick and thin in different places. The purple color on his head was brightest and the redness of his limbs was relatively dark. The overall whiteness on his body was somewhat fading as well.

Indeed, he grew older.Klein made a tacit comment to himself.

Just by what he saw, he felt like he had become a Beyonder!

"I am now a Beyonder!"

He averted his gaze and carefully sized up Old Neil when he suddenly saw a pair of cold and ruthless eyes with no eyebrows in the void behind him!

These almost illusory eyes stared intently at Old Neil, as well as him!

Klein shuddered as he gawked and said, "You have a pair of eyes behind you!"

Old Neil was shocked before he forced a smile.

"Disregard them."
