"Teacher, I'll take a look at these notes first."

Lin Ye said again.

"Sure, go ahead! I'll get to work first. Just let me know when you're finished!" Chen Daosheng responded.

"No problem!"

Lin Ye agreed.

These notebooks are classified, always stored in the Alliance's confidential archives.

It's not just anyone who can access them, even the head of a typical Professional Center at a settlement might not have the qualification to borrow them.

Like Zhang Ruiqi, the head of the Shan City Center, probably couldn't access documents of this level.

As for Lin Ye...

He originally wanted to find Yan Xun, the highest-ranking person he knows within the Alliance.

However, unexpectedly, after mentioning it to Chen Daosheng, Chen Daosheng gave it a try and managed to borrow these notes for him.

It wasn't because Chen Daosheng held a particularly high rank, as in terms of both rank and seniority, he couldn't compare to Zhang Ruiqi, let alone those like Yan Xun or Marshal Gu.

But once he reported Lin Ye's name to headquarters, the borrowing request was almost approved instantly, and the documents were sent through the Alliance's internal expedited file transfer channels to the Shenzhen City Center at lightning speed.

Even Chen Daosheng found it amusing, as the transfer speed for some urgent confidential documents might not be any faster than this.

This clearly shows how much importance the Alliance's higher-ups place on Lin Ye, almost to the point of fulfilling any request he makes.

And this was just Lin Ye wanting to learn about the life of a predecessor, not even a particularly significant matter.

If Lin Ye were to make an actual demand, who knows to what extent the Alliance would cooperate.

They might even pour all of the Alliance's resources into helping Lin Ye achieve his goals.

Chen Daosheng left the VIP room, leaving Lin Ye to peruse these materials by himself.

In the room, there were only slight sounds of pages being turned.

Lin Ye meticulously went through Sikong Ming's notes without missing a single word.

Obviously, Sikong Ming was a person with ideas; besides information about Space Mages in the notes, there were also some personal insights he shared.

According to the opening sentences of his notes, he did this simply to leave something for future generations.

Because most Space Mages before him left few traces behind, to the point that he had struggled immensely.

To prevent future Space Mages from facing the same struggles, he made this decision.

Sikong Ming, without a doubt, was a predecessor worthy of respect.

If he could have become the strongest, it would have been a blessing for all humanity. Unfortunately, he was ultimately betrayed and killed by the Abyss Demon Gods in the Abyss, unable to become the towering tree that protects humanity, as he had envisioned.

Fortunately, a century later, he met Lin Ye, who returned him to the human world for a proper burial.

Looking at these notes, Lin Ye couldn't help but feel a bit emotional.

The same profession, yet completely different people emerged.

Gao Lanlan, for personal vendetta, resorted to colluding with a Demon God, while Sikong Ming selflessly left all his insights for future generations, a clear contrast.

Lin Ye even felt a bit grateful that he received Sikong Ming's legacy, although Lin Ye didn't believe he could be as selfless as Sikong Ming, he certainly wouldn't collude with a Demon God like Gao Lanlan.

Lin Ye still held onto this sense of integrity.

Out of respect for Sikong Ming, Lin Ye read through every word of the notes with diligence.

Of course, this wasn't without value.

As the strongest Space Mage in human history, Sikong Ming had profound insights into his profession.

He had his unique take on equipment choices and enemy tactics.

These notes, even for members of other professions, weren't without use.

Lin Ye even noticed that some of the tactics in the notes were strikingly similar to some classic examples in textbooks.

It could be inferred that the Alliance didn't just store these notes without using them, but applied them through certain channels, unbeknownst to most.

What seemed to be notes collecting dust in a lofty shelf may well have already become the spiritual nourishment of countless students within textbooks.

If Sikong Ming knew this in the afterlife, he would likely be very gratified.

Lin Ye was deeply engrossed in reading, occasionally feeling moments of enlightenment, leading to repeated exclamations of admiration.

As if Sikong Ming were there, sitting before him, guiding him sincerely.

Time flew by swiftly, and it was already evening.

"This child..."

Outside the door, Chen Daosheng peered through the door crack to see Lin Ye completely absorbed in his reading, finding it quite amusing.

Yet seeing Lin Ye so immersed in the reading, he hesitated to disturb him, quietly closing the door.

He chose to guard the place, ensuring no one would bother Lin Ye's reading.

...

As the night deepened without their notice, the bright moon hung high in the night sky.

Lin Ye stretched.

"It's nearly midnight already..."

Lin Ye checked the time and was a bit surprised.

He hadn't expected to become so engrossed that it led to him reading till this hour.

But as a Professional, with his robust physical attributes, he didn't feel tired.

With Lin Ye's attributes, he could even go for half a year without eating or drinking without issue.

In extreme cases, there are records of going ten whole years without food or drink.

Of course, those who could achieve such feats were people with extraordinary willpower.

One might not suffer physical harm from short periods of hunger, but the feeling of hunger and thirst persists due to human muscle memory and habits.

This torment isn't pleasant for most professionals.

Especially since hunger and thirst can somewhat affect a professional's combat performance, severely reducing it, sometimes by a factor of ten.

Hence, many professionals still maintain the habit of eating three meals a day.

Besides satisfying their appetite, it helps keep their combat prowess at a relative peak.

Lin Ye turned another page, his eyelids slightly lifting.

"Finally reached this part."

Lin Ye muttered; although he gained a lot from the earlier reading, this wasn't his purpose for borrowing these notes.

He was looking for a way to achieve the Second Transformation for Space Mages through borrowing these notes.

Now, he finally reached this part of the records.

Lin Ye's previously weary spirit was immediately revitalized.

He started reading word by word with renewed focus.

After a while...

"Do I really have to thank Gao Lanlan for this?"

Lin Ye finished reading the method for transformation, letting out a chuckle.

If it weren't for Gao Lanlan, achieving this transformation would indeed have been tough for him.

According to the notes, for a Space Mage to complete their Second Transformation, they must meet two conditions: reaching Level 30 and possessing more than five Space Skills.

Once these conditions are met, they need to clear any Abyss Level natural Secret Realm to transform directly.

Thanks to Gao Lanlan, Lin Ye now exceeded these conditions.

Next, all Lin Ye needs to do is clear any Secret Realm under Abyss Difficulty to complete the transformation!
