The soft gasp reached Qin Ran's ears clearly.
A faint smile rose to his lips before he realized it.
Although it had taken considerable effort, Qin Ran was satisfied with what he had gained last night.
He had not found the person who had carved Sister Reed's statue among the many books, but he had learned a great deal about Marilin's legacy.
Besides [Detect Toxins], which he had demonstrated earlier, he had quickly mastered the remaining three basic spells: [Purge Toxins], [Healing Art], and [Radiance Art].
It had been nothing like the difficulty described in Marilin's book of inheritance.
Not only did he need no meditation, gestures, or spellcasting materials, he could even recite the incantations silently.
The only noticeable expenditure was stamina!
And what supported it all was the [Dawn Knight Body-Tempering Art]!
That was right-the [Dawn Knight Body-Tempering Art]!
When Qin Ran used [Detect Toxins], [Purge Toxins], [Healing Art], and [Radiance Art], the Dawn Force became exceptionally active. The speed at which it circulated through his body almost matched what he had experienced while absorbing those motes of light in the secret chamber.
Without a doubt, he had been able to master Marilin's secret arts so quickly and use them in such an unusual way because the [Dawn Knight Body-Tempering Art] had absorbed those motes of light.
This was not a guess. He had concrete evidence-
