Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Amidst the astonished gazes of thousands of monks from all corners of the world, Bai Lin landed surrounded by two energies, one black and one white.

Bai Lin made a gesture as if to perform a magic hand seal. Two streams of energy instantly formed a Tai Chi diagram behind him. Under the surging, ocean-like energy and the overwhelming pressure, the assembled mages felt immense admiration.

Bai Lin understood that his global reputation, accumulated over the years, was already quite strong, but it was impossible to make people who didn't know him at all sincerely believe in and worship him. Instead, he would achieve twice the result with half the effort when he released information that made people admire him.

For example, if he makes a big news story, people who see the news will be attracted to him. But news in the form of pictures and text can't compare to seeing it face to face. Originally, these monks thought Bai Lin was at most "outstanding among the young generation of monks in the East". But now, seeing him with the appearance of "attaining the Great Dao", they already regard him as "a star sent from heaven" or "a person of destiny".

It wasn't difficult for Bai Lin to simulate the Yin and Yang energies using the power of order and chaos, which also made it easier for Eastern sorcerers to understand. In his view, the names of these power systems were given by people, but there would always be conservatives who liked to argue and would get hung up on the fact that names like "order" and "chaos" were imported. With a few minor adjustments, he wouldn't have this concern.

Sure enough, some less powerful mages knelt down and shouted slogans such as "The immortal has descended" and "Heaven blesses the East".

The leading monks of the major sects, though not quite so incompetent, still respectfully stepped forward, bowed, and asked, "Please, Your Excellency, enlighten us and dispel our doubts!"

Bai Lin surveyed the crowd, observing the fervent and worshipful gazes of the thousands of Eastern mages. Sensing that this power of faith had reached its peak, he smiled slightly and said, "The power of heaven and earth is yin and yang. Yang is indeed majestic and radiant, while yin is gentle and enduring. Neither is inherently superior or inferior, good or evil. In modern terms, yang without yin is a waste of effort, and yin without yang is attacking without achieving victory. What suits you best is what's truly good!"

This explanation is intended to reduce the resistance of Eastern mages to chaotic power. Since ancient times, chaotic power, which focuses on destruction and killing, has been called the demonic path in the East. Therefore, it has been rejected by Eastern mages for thousands of years, who instead focus on alchemy and talismans. However, alchemy requires an extremely long time to cultivate, while talismans require extremely high talent, and very few can achieve great success.

Therefore, in the magical world, the overall combat power of Eastern mages is much lower than that of Western wizards. This is also the reason why the East was constantly on the defensive and almost perished during the war years a hundred years ago.

At this very moment, with human civilization facing the powerful threat of destruction by the ancient gods, if we continue to stagnate, it will be difficult to put up a fight in the subsequent decisive battle. These mages in front of us may seem like a large group, but without a dramatic improvement, more than half of them in the realm of the ancient gods would not even be considered cannon fodder and would turn to the dark side on the spot.

Under Bai Lin's radiant presence, the monks naturally regarded his words as precious gems and nodded in agreement.

With a wave of his hand, Bai Lin opened eight large doors around the Tower of Babel in the shape of the Bagua (Eight Trigrams). The doors were inscribed with the ancient seal characters "Qian, Kun, Li, Kan, Xun, Dui, Zhen, Gen," which actually represented the power of the eight major factions that Bai Lin had already mastered.

Perhaps this is how it came about in ancient times, only the naming methods differed under different cultures.

"Those who enter this gate will receive the infusion of the Tower of Babel, not only gaining the power of Yin and Yang of Heaven and Earth, but also tempering their souls, thereby resisting the spiritual attacks of the evil ancient gods!" Bai Lin said in a deep voice. The eyes of the mages looking at the Tower of Babel immediately changed from curiosity to anticipation, and from anticipation to fervor. If they hadn't dared not act rashly under Bai Lin's pressure, they would have already rushed forward.

"Of course, the energy of the Tower of Babel is not unlimited. Each sect can contribute an ancient magic treasure and recommend ten mages to enter the tower for cultivation!" Bai Lin then announced the rules of the Tower of Babel.

Human beings are realistic, and their selfishness and greed are hard to conceal. If there are no rules, who would be willing to provide magical energy? It would all be a waste.

Soon, these sects selected their young talents, who, with an air of fearlessness, strode into the Tower of Babel.

Just like when Bai Lin first entered the Soul Orb, he can now skillfully activate faction power for mages, with a success rate much higher than that of the Soul Orb.

In less than half a day, the first batch of mages who entered the Tower of Babel had successfully completed their mission. Apart from a very few unlucky ones, the vast majority of mages with good talent passed the Soul Tempering and obtained the power of their faction. They were as excited as three-hundred-month-old babies.

Whether it's the golden, orderly energy or the dark purple, disordered elemental energy, in terms of combat power, it's naturally far stronger than traditional magic.

Bai Lin didn't keep anything to himself and taught the mages several commonly used chaos spells, which immediately aroused extreme envy, jealousy, and hatred among the mages who hadn't yet entered the Tower of Babel.

The next day, more sects and more mages arrived at the habitat with a large number of their most treasured magical treasures. Even Gongsun Yuandao, the principal of Wenyuan Pavilion, the holy land of Eastern magic, brought the ten major sects of Eastern Taoism to the area.

Facing the principal of his alma mater, Bai Lin naturally couldn't put on airs and received Gongsun Yuandao, who had an air of otherworldly wisdom and resembled an Eastern version of Dumbledore, with the utmost respect. He listened to Gongsun Yuandao's proud introduction of the legendary ten major sects of Eastern Taoism.

"This is the Celestial Master, the head of the Zhengyi sect of Celestial Masters..."

Bai Lin bowed politely, and Zhang Xuanyi of the Celestial Masters Sect followed behind the sect leader, though his gaze toward Bai Lin was somewhat complicated.

"This is the head Taoist priest of the Qingwei School... This is the master of the Wudang School... This is the Quanzhen School... This is the Beidi School... This is the Lingbao School..."

With Gongsun Yuandao's introduction, Bai Lin instantly recognized all the oldest magic sects in the East. He knew in his heart that he had now officially entered the center of the Eastern magic world. The old mages in front of him were the core figures of the Eastern magic world, usually guarding their respective areas and being renowned figures. Today, he could sit on equal footing with them.

No, not on equal footing, but on a higher level, because Bai Lin was now the lifeline of the Eastern magic world.

"I wonder what Master Bai's insights are on the current situation?" the old master asked politely, his eyes narrowed.

Bai Lin nodded to the assembled dignitaries and, without beating around the bush, stated directly, "I propose the establishment of the Earth Mage Alliance, calling upon like-minded individuals worldwide to launch a full-scale attack against the evil ancient god forces!"

The bigwigs looked at each other in bewilderment. After all, the strength of the Eastern magic community has declined in recent years, and it no longer has the international influence it had two hundred years ago.

Bai Lin continued, "The International Association of Magicians is now defunct in name only, completely incapable of organizing any resistance. Many national ministries of magic have been infiltrated by the power of the ancient gods, becoming henchmen of evil. We can no longer rely on foreign organizations. The East must emulate Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms period. Only by taking the lead in righteous action and achieving a resounding victory can the Eastern magical world be revived and return to its world-class position!"
