"I couldn't find it. Could it be that it hasn't been placed here yet, or is it that even I can't see through the hidden magic?" Yi Shuihan stared at the magic mirror for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, and he was a little frustrated.

"Meow!"

Seemingly sensing its master's mood, Meow patted Yi Shuihan's trouser leg with its little foot, attracting Yi Shuihan's attention. Then, it walked towards the magic mirror and, under Yi Shuihan's astonished gaze, walked right through it. The magic mirror rippled, and then Meow appeared in the mirror.

"This is……"

Even Harry, who was engrossed in talking with his parents, was stunned and stared dumbfounded at the meow that suddenly appeared in the mirror.

“How could it be there? That’s amazing, how did it do that?” Harry exclaimed.

"Is this Night Cat's ability?"

Yi Shuihan could only guess at this possibility, but this ability seemed to be somewhat different from the ability he had learned about Ye Mingmiao from the information he had obtained.

Ordinary Nightcats can become ethereal and pass through some matter, but this magic mirror is clearly not an ordinary magical item. Logically speaking, Nightcats should not be able to enter at all. Otherwise, if it were that easy, Voldemort would not have needed to go to so much trouble to get Harry's help. With his abilities, getting a Nightcat would not have been difficult for him.

While Yi Shuihan was pondering, Miaoya had already begun searching inside the mirror. A few minutes later, when it reappeared, it was carrying a crystal-clear red gemstone. The gemstone's edges were irregular, appearing rather pitted and uneven. It was the magic stone that Yi Shuihan was looking for.

Meow raised its head and walked up to Yi Shuihan as if it wanted to take credit, almost as if it wanted to say, "Master, I'm amazing, right? Come and praise me!"

"Well done! As expected of my pet, Yi Shuihan's pet, it's truly extraordinary and unique." Holding the magic stone in his hand, Yi Shuihan praised it as Miaoya had wished, and of course, he also praised himself in the process.

Harry wasn't stupid, and he realized that what Yi Shuihan held was extraordinary, but he didn't immediately think about the Philosopher's Stone. Instead, he focused on communicating with his parents in the mirror.

Suddenly, Yi Shuihan's expression changed. He put the magic stone into his personal space and let it slowly approach the egg.

A miraculous scene unfolded: the magic stone emitted a red light, illuminating the egg, and the egg's life force began to slowly increase.

In no time, the egg's life force had increased to a level that even ordinary wizards could sense, and the magic stone had shrunk considerably.

Thinking that he might have to show the Philosopher's Stone to Dumbledore tomorrow, Yi Shuihan, even though he really wanted to hatch the egg immediately, put the Philosopher's Stone away and decided to do it tomorrow.

Anyway, didn't Dumbledore say in the end that the Philosopher's Stone was destroyed? Wouldn't it be better to give it to me to contribute to society than to destroy it?

Unbeknownst to him, Yi Shuihan had completely come to regard the magic stone as his own, and had even come up with a corresponding explanation.

With the Philosopher's Stone problem temporarily resolved, and Harry occupying the Magic Mirror, Yi Shuihan had to shift her attention elsewhere. Fortunately, there were still some things in the room that she could use to pass the time.

In a corner, Yi Shuihan saw the Wizard's Chess set. He had once wanted to buy a set in Diagon Alley, but lacking opponents, he had never used it.

Next to the Wizard's Chess set was a map. With a mindset of studying it, Yi Shuihan opened it, but found nothing unusual. It seemed to be just an ordinary map, and a map of a location that Yi Shuihan did not know.

Upon seeing the map, Yi Shuihan suddenly remembered the Marauder's Map that Harry had used in the original book. It was incredibly useful, and although for Yi Shuihan it was just a matter of scanning with his mental power, its interestingness was undeniable.

They found many interesting little trinkets in the room, as if the room were a storage place for magical items. In short, Yi Shuihan was not bored.

"Harry, we should go."

As dawn broke, Yi Shuihan called Harry to leave. Harry glanced longingly at the magic mirror, put his invisibility cloak back on, and the two went their separate ways after leaving the house.

"Looks like Harry's going to be a night owl for a while."

Back in his room, Yi Shuihan didn't sleep. Instead, he took out the magic stones and started absorbing them, figuring that once he finished his daily intake, it would be time to talk to Dumbledore about the magic stones.

Yi Shuihan didn't notice that while he was focused entirely on absorbing the immortal stones, Miaoya beside him also moved closer, inhaling and exhaling through its nose, drawing wisps of immortal energy into its body. It seemed to be cultivating as well.

Chapter 534, Taking Voldemort to the Ministry of Magic

Time always flies when you're cultivating. When Yi Shuihan opened his eyes after absorbing the spirit stone, he saw his little pet cat sleeping peacefully beside him.

"How many times has this happened? Every time I tell you to sleep in your own bed, you just won't listen." Yi Shuihan Miaoya is quite nice; she was given a small villa specially made for her, with a comfortable little bed that's perfect for Miaoya to sleep in.

This magical villa may not look big, but its interior space is actually even larger than Yi Shuihan's room. Moreover, only non-human animals can enter it. Yi Shuihan was quite surprised for a while, and then he spent time breaking the restrictions so that he could also enter.

After placing the cat in its proper spot, Yi Shuihan first went to have breakfast, and then went to find Dumbledore.

"You mean Dumbledore went to the Ministry of Magic, Professor McGonagall?"

"Yes, he just left, and he left in a hurry. Is there anything you want to talk to him about?"

"Well, I'll wait until he comes back before I go find him. I'll also ask him how long it will take for him to be back."

"I'm not entirely sure. They could be back on the same day if things go smoothly, but there's a record of them taking up to a month to return."

"Okay, I'll wait for him."

Instead of finding Dumbledore in his office, Yi Shuihan met Professor McGonagall, which made him slightly annoyed. Perhaps he could have met Dumbledore if he hadn't gone to breakfast.

Are we just going to wait for Dumbledore to come back? If it's only a few days, that's fine, but a month is really a bit long. Yi Shuihan is saying that it's a bit long for a certain little one of us who wants to be born and see the world.

"In that case, I might as well go find him. I've never been to the Ministry of Magic before."

Having made up his mind, Yi Shuihan first told Hermione that he was going out, and asked Hermione to tell Harry and the others. Then he found Professor Quirrell and forcibly took him away.

After all, to ensure Harry's safety, taking Quirrell and Voldemort away was the best option. As for Professor Quirrell having classes? That was completely outside of Yi Shuihan's consideration.

"You should know how to get to the Ministry of Magic, right?" After leaving Hogwarts, Yi Shuihan suddenly realized that he didn't know how to get to the Ministry of Magic, so he asked Professor Quirrell.

"The Ministry of Magic? You mean you're going there?"

Professor Quirrell spoke fluently, completely unlike his stuttering in front of the students at Hogwarts. Even his demeanor had changed; he seemed like a completely different person.

"You want to hand us over to the Ministry of Magic?"

Voldemort's voice came from inside Professor Quirrell's body.

"Of course not, it's just that Dumbledore went to the Ministry of Magic on business, and I wanted to go see him, so I went to the Ministry of Magic. What? You really didn't know?"

Yi Shuihan dismissed Voldemort's claims. In his view, the Ministry of Magic was utterly ineffective against Voldemort. Compared to Azkaban, whom all wizards feared, Dumbledore was far more threatening to Voldemort.

"Go find Dumbledore?"

When Dumbledore was mentioned, Voldemort's tone changed, becoming quite wary. In the wizarding world, the person Voldemort was confident he could defeat and who had always avoided direct confrontation was none other than Dumbledore, who had once been his teacher and defeated Grindelwald.

Of course, nowadays, Voldemort also has to add Yi Shuihan to his list of fears, and his fear of Yi Shuihan is even greater than that of Dumbledore.

"Owner?"

Quirrell didn't answer Yi Shuihan's question, but instead wanted Voldemort to make the decision. He did know where the Ministry of Magic was and how to get there.

"Take him there."

Voldemort was, after all, a figure who had once reigned supreme over the entire wizarding world, and he still possessed considerable courage. Moreover, he clearly understood that this matter was not entirely within his control. Since Yi Shuihan could easily destroy his remnant soul, what difference would it make if Dumbledore were added to the mix?

"I understand."

Quirrell answered respectfully and then told him the location of the Ministry of Magic.

"So it really is London? It's really far away. It's a pity I've never been there, otherwise, I could have taken care of it with a single Apparition."

Yi Shuihan sighed, then set off with Qi Luo.

If it were just Yi Shuihan alone, he could fly there directly at a fast speed. However, considering Qi Luo, Yi Shuihan had to abandon the idea of ​​flying there.

"So the question is, how do we get there?"

"I have a magic carpet here, which can be used for traveling. I wonder what you think..."

"The magic carpet, hurry up and bring it out! We'll use the magic carpet."

Yi Shuihan interrupted Qi Luo, giving him a look that said, "Why didn't you say so earlier?", which made Qi Luo feel extremely uncomfortable.

Quirrell took a magic carpet the size of a handkerchief from his pocket and threw it in front of him. The magic carpet, once it left his hand, quickly grew larger and eventually became a magic carpet about 10 square meters in size, floating half a meter in the air, motionless and very stable.

Before Qi Luo could speak, Yi Shuihan leaped onto it, found a comfortable spot, and sat down cross-legged. But that wasn't all. Seeing that the magic carpet was quite large, he simply took out a small table from his personal space, set out some black tea and snacks, and then took out a backrest before stopping.

Quirrell was completely taken aback by Yi Shuihan's overly casual attitude. It wasn't until Yi Shuihan invited him to come up that Quirrell boarded the magic carpet. By then, it was impossible to tell who the true owner of the magic carpet was.

In the end, they still flew to the Ministry of Magic. Although this flight was not the same as Yi Shuihan's flight, overall, the result was not bad for Yi Shuihan.

During the flight, Quirrell seemed very silent, and Voldemort also seemed to have disappeared. Quirrell would only answer a question or two when Yi Shuihan asked him a question. It was fortunate that Yi Shuihan was used to entertaining himself, otherwise he would have really been embarrassed.

The magic carpet isn't fast, about the same speed as a train, but it travels in a straight line, so it takes less time than a train.

He didn't know exactly how much time had passed, but by the time Yi Shuihan saw the magic carpet stop, he had already finished his fifth cup of black tea.

"Reached?"

Chapter 535 World Advancement Mission

With Yi Shuihan's eyesight, he could already see the pedestrians not far away and once again felt the atmosphere of modernity, or what is known as the atmosphere of Muggles in the magical world.

After packing up my things, the magic carpet landed at a height where I could easily jump down.

"That's pretty fast!"

While casually remarking, Yi Shuihan noticed a rather interesting phenomenon: despite being only a few hundred meters apart, the other side seemed completely unaware of Yi Shuihan and his companions.

"The same magic as the Hogwarts Express?"

The moment this thought crossed Yi Shuihan's mind, he discovered the location of the magic with remarkable ease.

Hiding the magical world from the public, and keeping it unknown to ordinary people, was a suggestion that, in Yi Shuihan's view, while avoiding some conflicts, also had its drawbacks. For example, maintaining this state of obscurity would require a great deal of effort, thus wasting a lot of manpower.

Since there were far fewer people in the wizarding world than in the Muggle world to begin with, this change will cause fewer and fewer people to actually contribute to the development of magic, and the development of magic will become quite slow.

Conversely, if the magical world is not hidden, various problems will inevitably arise, such as rejection by ordinary people. However, there is also a possibility that a genius might invent a method to break the bloodline restrictions, allowing ordinary people to become magicians. If that happens, an era of universal magic cultivation would arrive, and the world's development would accelerate, potentially leading to a world advancement and transforming it into the magical world that Yi Shuihan visited.

The idea that humans could possess immense power, long lifespans, and even become gods, stepping out of their own world and connecting with all other worlds, is incredibly exciting just to imagine.

"Ding, World Advancement Mission Issued"

Mission Name: World Transformation

Mission Description: To fully expose magic to the world and enable more than half of the world's population to possess magical power, thereby strengthening the world's essence and elevating it.

Quest Reward: A portion of the essence of a lower world

"

Originally, Yi Shuihan was just casually imagining things in his mind. He had no intention of changing the status quo, nor was he interested in it. Who knew that the system would issue such a task, which immediately left Yi Shuihan dumbfounded.

What kind of rhythm is this?

Yi Shuihan swore he genuinely didn't want to get involved in this matter. Just thinking about giving more than half the world's population magical powers was terrifying; how much time and energy would it take?

It was thanks to Yi Shuihan that this task was completed. Otherwise, no one else would have had the chance to complete it. After all, it's not easy to give an ordinary person magic. Even if you manage to do it, it would still be light-years away from giving magic to more than half of the world's population!

That's right, Yi Shuihan can indeed grant people magic power now. As long as someone without magic power becomes physically strong, or if Yi Shuihan protects them while they drink medicine, they can successfully and risk-free gain magic power.

"No, using potions doesn't seem right. There are so many people in the world, would there be enough ingredients to make potions? If not, we'd have to increase the number of animals raised, but that would take a lot of time."

Yi Shuihan thought about the task carefully and finally realized that it would be very difficult to complete within 10 years, and it would probably take several decades.

"Aren't you leaving?"

Qi Luo waited for Yi Shuihan for a while and found that Yi Shuihan was just standing there in a daze. Finally, he couldn't help but speak up.

Distracted by Qi Luo, Yi Shuihan was a little annoyed, but then he smiled nonchalantly. Despite finding the matter troublesome, he had unknowingly become completely absorbed in it. Why? Was it because of the mission reward?

Despite its "low-level" prefix, the origin of the low-level world is still precious. In any case, Yi Shuihan was completely shocked by the system's grand gesture.

That's the origin of the world! Obtaining it is equivalent to having control over a world. In the primordial world, the origin of the world is called the Heavenly Dao. Although a low-level origin of the world isn't that powerful, its value to Yi Shuihan right now is absolutely immeasurable.

Putting the mission aside for the time being, Yi Shuihan and Quirrell successfully crossed the magical barriers set up by the Ministry of Magic and arrived in London.

As expected of an international metropolis, the flow of people is enormous. You can see people from many other countries. Yi Shuihan also met several people of the same skin color and speaking the same mother tongue as him, which made him feel very close to them.

Do you think there might be any problems if we just come to their door like this?

Yi Shuihan and Quirrell stood above the Ministry of Magic, because the headquarters of the British Ministry of Magic was located underground.

The sudden question startled Qi Luo, who was somewhat confused about what Yi Shuihan was thinking.

"Alright, we'll just have to play it by ear when the time comes. Remember, our goal is to find Dumbledore."

After some searching, the two successfully entered the Ministry of Magic, but because they didn't hide, they were discovered by the Ministry's staff.

They hadn't gone far into the Ministry of Magic when a group of people with wands surrounded Yi Shuihan and Quirrell.

"With such a large-scale operation, do they know Voldemort is coming?"

This was the first thing that came to Yi Shuihan's mind.

"No...don't do that, I'm Professor Quirrell, the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts."

Quirrell once again became the somewhat cowardly, stuttering guy in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Show us your identification, or we will arrest you for trespassing on the Ministry of Magic's property."

A magic wand pointed at Yi Shuihan and spoke.

"What is a magic proof?"

Yi Shuihan didn't have this item, and could only watch as Qiluo rummaged through his clothes for a long time before finally pulling out a badge.

The wand pointed at the badge, and then a series of information about Quirrell's identity appeared in the air.
