Age of Adepts

Chapter 167: Mystic wizard

Views:

The night was low and full of stars.

The familiar stars that I saw inside the plane in the past are now hanging above the sky, so close that it seems that I can pick them off just by flying up.

But Greem knows very well that each of these stars represents a plane world that carries hundreds of millions of living beings. They seem to be close at hand, but if you want to get there in the infinite star sea, you can't do it in less than a hundred years.

And the term "stars and seas" is not a metaphor, but a real description.

Any two planes in the multiverse are extremely far apart. Between them is not an empty infinite void, but filled with an unimaginably powerful energy tide. Where there are energy tides, there will be high tides and low tides, and there will be stormy and calm moments.

In the seemingly empty void, there is a wanton flow of energy everywhere. For any creature to break into the infinite void, the first thing it needs to do is to find a way to isolate the invasion of energy turbulence.

The void is not empty, the energy is rampant!

Energy tides flow aimlessly in the void, sometimes converging in certain places, forming terrifying energy storms one after another. These storm areas often stretch for hundreds of thousands of miles, and some are particularly huge, reaching millions of miles.

The intensity of energy erosion in the core area of the Netherstorm even reached a staggering 10,000 degrees, and it would be difficult for great wizards above level 5 to survive if they were involved. In the edge area of the storm, the intensity of the energy turbulence area will reach more than 100 degrees.

This also means that once a wizard breaks into an energy storm, the energy shield outside his body for protection will be subjected to hundreds of degrees of energy erosion all the time. This... This is already comparable to the attack strength of an official wizard!

Once the wizard's own energy shield is damaged, the first-level wizard will be eroded by magical energy into tiny particles that cannot be recognized by the naked eye within three to five fingers, and then spread to any corner of the multiverse along with the energy tide.

Therefore, without the protection of the barriers of the planes, it is almost impossible for a level 1 wizard to survive in the sea of stars. Wanting to cross the void with a physical body, this is something only a great wizard can do!

The demiplane drifted slowly through the void.

Brilliantly flickering fireworks can be seen all over the membrane protecting the demiplane.

That is the scene formed after the turbulent flow of energy and the friction and splash of the boundary membrane. It looks very beautiful from a distance, but the energy intensity contained in it is not inferior to the maximum attack intensity that a senior apprentice can arouse, 50 degrees. This also means that once someone breaks away from the protection of the boundary membrane and goes deep into the infinite starry sky, the protective shield he props up must withstand no less than 50 degrees of energy attack at all times.

This is still the time when the energy tides are at their calmest.

Even with Greem's current strength, he can stay in the infinite starry sky for a quarter of an hour at most!

On a particularly tall and pointed rock peak inside the demiplane, Greem's temporary residence was a small room dug into the rock wall. He has been here for three days, but he can only meditate with nothing to do every day, staring at the stars at night in a daze, or chatting with a certain wizard who lives nearby.

He originally thought that the seven first-level wizards in the team this time were all the strength that the Sarupo family could show. But when the other three wizarding teams appeared in front of him, Greem suddenly realized that the Sarupo family still had some hidden wizarding power. And these wizards usually hide in those secondary planes.

In fact, this is also a practical need.

The secondary planes are all small and medium-sized material planes that wizard families forcibly enslave with brutal force and bloody means. Once they lack the necessary guardian power of wizards, the ruling structure they established can easily be overthrown by the local natives.

Therefore, in order to ensure that the resources of the secondary planes can be continuously squeezed out, tall wizard towers have been built on each secondary plane, and a large number of wizards are stationed all year round.

This is the core interest that every wizard family must carefully manage and protect!

And the family residence in the wizarding world is nothing more than a source of blood that can continuously cultivate new wizards. However, the value of the source of blood is unmatched by any secondary plane. As long as the family's roots in the wizard continent are not eradicated, it will be able to continuously train qualified wizards for the family, allowing the family to grow and develop every moment.

Therefore, the roots of all wizard families are in the wizard world, but their tentacles have spread to many places in the endless star sea. Every time they find a material plane that is weaker than their own, they will find a way to invade it, squeeze out sweet milk from it, and make their roots stronger and stronger...

And in this demiplane, the official wizards drawn by the Sarubo family from the two sub-planes joined Greem and his party. If these old-fashioned wizards were the main fighters of the Sarubo family, then Greem and his party could at most be considered a group of recruits, who had not experienced the nurturing and tempering of the plane battlefield.

Invading a new plane for the first time may encounter a variety of strange situations. If you put those veterans into it, if something goes wrong, the backbone of the Sarubo family will be broken. So at this time, new wizards like Greem became the best wayfinding pioneers!

Of course, no wizard would tell him these things clearly, but Greem quickly came to this conclusion by himself after reviewing and filtering the subtle information.

They and their party are pathfinding pawns sent by the Sarubo family into unknown regions. If one is not good, their lives may be in danger!

But even after seeing this, Greem was still helpless. After all, this is an inevitable process that every wizard needs to go through, otherwise, how could the family spend so much effort and resources on them!

Of course, this sentence is mainly aimed at those wizards of the Sarubo family. As for the three of Greem, who were raised by their stepmothers, they didn't get much resources, but they did a lot of dangerous work.

...

On the fifth day of arriving in this demiplane, the day of action finally arrived.

Greem and his party of seven arrived at a secret hall of secret magic under the leadership of Lord Fogan.

There, Greem saw the strangest scene that shocked him the most in his life.

A man, a wizard, was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the hall.

Below him is a huge mysterious witch formation, and behind him, a strange void vortex opened, and thousands of strange golden chains between entity and nothingness were projected from it, firmly tied to him.

The wizard's black robe covers his body, and his hood hangs down, making it difficult to see his face. And the huge mysterious witch formation under him is constantly running, helping him struggle against the erosion of those mysterious void chains.

Although it was impossible to analyze the strength level of this mysterious wizard, Greem felt a terrifying force around him that could shatter the void and turbulent planes. Facing those weird void chains, Greem vaguely felt a trace of the original breath of plane law from inside!

This... Are these the manifestation of the power of a certain plane law? !

Greem was speechless.

I just comprehended the most insignificant law of the fire system, and I was promoted to a wizard smoothly. But the mysterious wizard in front of him is obviously contending with the powerful laws of a certain plane. What a terrifying thing that is beyond the limit of ordinary people's imagination!

Arriving here, even Wizard Furgen, who had always been cold-eyed, became cautious.

He didn't dare to step into the huge mysterious witch formation, but bowed at the edge of the secret magic hall and saluted: "Respected Lord Sarubo, I have brought the first batch of wizards who have chosen to enter!"

Hearing Fogen's words, all the wizards of the family couldn't help shaking slightly, and there was an unbelievable shock in the eyes they cast on the mysterious wizard.

Could it be... Could it be that this invisible and mysterious wizard is the one who founded the family thousands of years ago... Master Sarubo? If it was really him, wouldn't it mean that what I saw now was a terrifying great wizard whose level was as high as 5th or even 6th level

Everyone quickly lowered their heads, never daring to spy on this mysterious wizard again!

As the wizards of the Sarubo family, in their hearts, this terrifying great wizard who founded the family is no less than a god-like existence. Although it is impossible for them to believe in him, they are still deeply impressed by its terror and strength.

For most of the people present, perhaps a level 1 wizard is the highest peak they can reach in their lives. A great wizard of level 5 or level 6 has already surpassed the limit of their imagination, and has become a beautiful dream that they dare not expect!

Now a vivid and beautiful dream appeared in front of him, and the spiritual fluctuations of all the wizards were violently shaken, showing their restless mood.

The mysterious wizard didn't raise his head, and a low but moving voice was etched into everyone's mind.

"The barrier of this plane has been eroded by me to create a wormhole, and a ray of spiritual consciousness that I have differentiated has found a suitable place there.

You are all first-level wizards, and the branding of the plane in the wizarding world is not so obvious. As long as your movements are small, it will not arouse a strong rebound in the consciousness of this plane. So when you teleport there, the first task is to set up a forward camp there and erect a small wizard tower.

Notice!

Although I have tried my best to suppress the plane countermeasures over there, you still have to work hard to adapt to the new plane laws there after you go there.

Remember, on the premise of not revealing your identities, you have to use your lives to protect this forward camp and my spiritual body. After I have basically analyzed the laws of the plane over there, your mission will be considered complete.

Everyone can get rich rewards beyond your imagination!

Alright, get ready now, I'll send you there right away! "

As the vanguard, the seven wizards listened to the mysterious wizard's suggestion with solemn faces, and made preparations silently. As the mysterious wizard waved his hand lightly, a strange golden chain split out from the void vortex, instantly piercing through the bodies of all wizards.

In the next second, under the pull of the powerful law of the plane, the seven wizards didn't even have a chance to exclaim, and disappeared into the void vortex with a whoosh.
