Swoosh!
Yang Ling’s mind was clear and bright. He fused with the world, and he opened his heart to it. He absorbed the forest’s boundless and pure green Life Energy and the Body-Honing Wizard Mantra started working by itself. The boundless Life Forest seeped into every inch of his flesh and bones. His veins got a green luster, and his whole body was engulfed by a faint green halo.
Pure Life Energy sank into his veins and bones. Yang Ling’s body carried out another strengthening process, and this strengthening process was different than the previous ones. This was like a qualitative transformation, and his power and defense rose by another level. Even his Vitaly turned stronger and more intense.
Every drop of blood essence contained a large amount of Life Energy, and every wisp of Divine Consciousness contained a large amount of Soul Energy.
The Wizard Core’s revolution speed also rose drastically, and the tremendous Life Force was turned into pure Wizard Power. The Soul Crystal in his brain released a large amount of Crystal Mist with every breath and the Crystal Mist fused with the green mist outside his body. It had even started devouring the pure green mist. The Crystal Mist’s color slowly turned green and its scope turned larger.
Buzz!
After the pagoda mark between Yang Ling’s brows detected the boundless energy in the outside world, it started throbbing intensely, and it devoured the Life Energy contained within the green mist like a bottomless pit. The Wizard Pagoda’s dimension let out a soft cry, and Yang Ling’s absorption speed rose by a thousandfold.
If it could be said that Yang Ling was like a large whale devouring seawater, then the Wizard Pagoda was like a black hole among the boundless cosmos, and it devoured ravenously all energy in its vicinity. A peerless wave of pressure also spread from it, and it was accompanied by the aura and roars of ferocious beasts. It was like the myriad beings’ ruler descended here, and the wave of pressure stunned the souls of all Magical Beasts in the forest.
After some powerful God-Level Magical Beasts detected the green mist’s source, they chased after it quickly. They planned to rush into Yang Ling’s side and investigate this. But, after they detected the boundless wave of pressure emitted by the Wizard Pagoda, they prostrated on the ground. The ferocious beast’s roar contained a devastating aura that made those beasts’ souls shiver with fear.
Even a Divine Beast with a High-Level Deity Power and even the forest’s Magical Beast King prostrated in the face of this aura. There wasn’t any Magical Beast that could resist this soul’s prestige.
After the Wizard Pagoda within the other dimension absorbed a large amount of energy, it emitted intense white mist with a larger scope. The mist engulfed the whole Holy City, and the closer to the Wizard Pagoda, the denser the mist and the intenser its energy.
Many mysterious and abstruse symbols appeared on the Wizard Pagoda. The Magical Beasts’ images on it turned lifelike and distinct. There was even a golden dragon with five paws at the pagoda’s peak and it shone brightly. It seemed like it wanted to rush out, and the whole Wizard Pagoda emitted a peerless wave of pressure that quickly spread to every corner of the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. This was accompanied by sonorous roars.
“Is, is this a Great Soul Wizard’s power?” When the Corpse Wizard King detected the Wizard Pagoda’s changes, he prostrated respectfully in front of it along with the Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and others. He was stunned by this boundless wave of pressure that engulfed the whole world, and he shed tears. He was so excited that he shed tears!
The stronger Yang Ling, the higher the hope of his daughter’s resurrection.
After the believers in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension detected the changes of the world, they prostrated toward the Wizard Pagoda’s direction and started praying devoutly. Pure Faith Power started converging, and it was present everywhere. The Magical Divine Rings of the Corpse Wizard King and others emitted a dazzling radiance, and the skeleton or angel’s pictures on them turned more distinct. Even the amount of Soul Energy in their minds rose drastically.
Those were the Magical Divine Rings, which could absorb a large amount of the Great Wizard’s Faith Power. The Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others saw more nice surprises thanks to them.
After an unknown amount of time, a cold wind blew over and Yang Ling opened his eyes slowly. The green mist next to him turned faint, and his surroundings were just barren land. He couldn’t see even Wheat Grass, let alone tall trees. He had already rushed out of the large forest at an unknown time.
“Huh, what is the matter?” When Yang Ling saw his skin shining in green luster, he let out a surprised cry, and he quickly noticed his body’s changes through using Inner Vision.
His Wizard Power and Soul energy rose drastically. He still didn’t become a High-Level Soul Wizard, but his power was higher than before. The Energy Ripples within his body turned more obscure and hidden. It seemed like he approached the stage, Return to the Natural State.
After Yang Ling muttered to himself irresolutely for a moment, he quickly realized that when he left Astonvela Manor, he was in a carefree mood and he transitioned into an indescribable training state.
“If I can get into that state at any moment, won’t I be able to become a High-Level Soul Wizard in a short time or even become a Wizard God in one go?” The more Yang Ling thought about this, the more excited he became. He closed his eyes and flew out. It was a pity that he couldn’t get into this indescribable state even after trying for so long. It was unknown whether the reason behind this was his current environment or the changes in his mental state.
However, even though he couldn’t fulfill his wish, he made some progress after he tried this for a long time.
After some time, his Soul Energy became greater as did his Divine Consciousness’s scope. Even if he closed his eyes, he could still detect everything with a perimeter of several hundred miles. The Five Elements Evasions and the Teleportation Gate’s instant teleportation distance turned larger and more accurate. He could teleport easily to every region within his Divine Consciousness’s scope. The Crystal Mist’s scope also became larger and he could condense at will spears or Magical Beasts formed by energy within the mist, and he could use them to attack the enemy’s body and soul.
“One day, I will control all mountain ranges I walk by and every forest beneath the starry sky will be my back garden. One day, no one will be able to control my fate or my relatives’ fates.” Yang Ling looked at the boundless barren land in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils. He was high-spirited and very confident.
Controlling the world!
This was every Great Soul Wizard’s ultimate objective. Fighting against the world and fate before controlling one’s fate.
At this moment, Yang Ling understood that his practice’s objective wasn’t just becoming a strong Wizard God, and it also wasn’t to become a lofty expert like the King of Darkness or Algernon Divine Lord. It was to become a real powerhouse that wasn’t restricted by laws and to control his fate and the fate of his relatives.
Swoosh!
Yang Ling closed his eyes and flew out. He used his spirit to observe the Graveyard of Gods and Devils’ world, and he used his soul to reach all of the world’s myriad beings and demons. If he transformed into a shrub, he would manage to deceive a Great Soul Wizard’s eyes, but he surely wouldn’t manage to deceive their souls.
Desolate and barren land, swamp engulfed by black mist, a primitive forest that stretched for ten thousand miles.
Yang Ling depended upon his powerful Divine Consciousness, his perfect Five Elements Evasion Spells and high speed to advance quickly. He rushed toward the Moon River, and he managed to easily avoid patrol teams of Abyssal Demons in the way. He wasn’t encumbered any longer by Golden Cloak Warriors and numerous wanderers, and this was why his speed was higher than before by many folds.
“Huh? What is that?” When Yang Ling passed by a forest, he detected a peculiar and amiable aura. The pagoda mark between his brows throbbed intensely, and it started to burn. It seemed like it detected some object’s summon.
Yang Ling was confused, and he opened his eyes. He followed the peculiar aura and flew over there. As he crossed many mountains and rivers, those Energy Ripples turned intenser, and the pagoda mark between his brows throbbed quicker. In the end, he reached a mysterious valley.
The valley’s three sides were encircled by mountains, and it had a high cliff. The valley’s entrance was covered with vines that had malevolent-looking sharp bayonet-like thorns. There weren’t any Magical Beasts that dared to approach it, and the whole valley was engulfed by a thick white mist. If he approached the valley, his body would turn heavier, and it would be strenuous for him to fly. Even a small mosquito couldn’t fly inside, let alone a God-Level Flying Magical Beast.
“A Gravity Restriction Spell with a large scope?” When Yang Ling detected the terrible gravity, he wasn’t startled. Instead, he was delighted, and his eyes lit up. One of his objectives behind entering the Graveyard of Gods and Devils was looking for the Ancient Wizards’ tracks. He had previously racked his brains about this, yet he couldn’t find any clues. But now, he unexpectedly ran into such a valley inadvertently.
He worked hard to no avail, yet in the end, he got what he wanted without putting in any effort.
When Yang Ling detected the amiable Ripples that emanated from the valley and detected the gravitational anomaly that encompassed this whole region, he became sure that this valley was related to the Ancient Wizards he sought. As a “swooshing” sound echoed out, he pulled out the sharp Battle Soul Blade and flew inside carefully.
He was surprised to discover that the valley’s entrance was a boundless desert filled with all kinds of Magical Beasts’ corpses. Some corpses had already rotted and had only had bones left; there were also dark and swarthy Godheads. Most corpses were burned in the sand and just their skulls were revealed. They had died countless years ago!
“What an amazing Illusion Spell!”
Yang Ling closed his eyes and observed the vicinity’s situation with his senses before he looked at the God-Level Magical Beasts’ corpses piled up on the ground like mountains. He couldn’t help but sigh in alarm. This seemed like a simple Illusion Spell, but it was very dangerous, and many Gravity and Soul Restriction Spells were mixed with it. Even a Great Soul Wizard like Yang Ling couldn’t quickly understand some regions’ situation, and it was obvious that the power of the person who set up the Restriction Spells was no small matter.
After Yang Ling detected the intense summon from the valley’s interior, he gritted his teeth and held the Battle Soul Blade. He walked inside carefully and he advanced step by step. He also broke the terrifying Restriction Spells carefully before he walked inside slowly. He spent several hours crossings several miles, and his walking speed wasn’t any higher than a snail.
At first, Yang Ling assumed that an Ancient Wizard’s treasure was left in the valley, but after he put a lot of effort into this and entered the valley, he was shocked.
There were a thousand tombs scattered on the long and narrow valley. This region was covered with weeds, and after he looked around here, he found a black stele in front of the largest tomb. This stele was heavily damaged and wasn’t intact. It was unknown whether this was due to wind erosion or a part of it was shattered by someone.
