Chapter 125: The Art of Void Law (34th update)
Chapter 125
In the underground tavern, after getting the benefits, Sirius demonstrated his integrity as a businessman and quickly fulfilled his previous promise.
He stood in front of the bar with a smile on his face, instructing his subordinates via remote communication:
"Close the pass and temporarily suspend operations."
The pass, which had previously refused to be closed, now completely stopped after his words.
Not only that, he also blocked the entire underground tavern and allowed SilverAsh and his men to begin the search, checking one by one the people related to the Meteorite Council and the Spirit Eye Furnace.
Sirius himself, behind the bar, leisurely mixed a glass of light blue margarita, took a sip, with a hint of teasing in his eyes, quietly observing Silver-Gray's search operations.
The apprentices in the tavern hall naturally didn't dare to say much.
An official wizard asked them to cooperate with the investigation, and they naturally obeyed.
Even though many of them were dissatisfied with Furnace Stone's strong methods, no one dared to disobey and they all cooperated silently.
There were official wizards in the small private rooms, some of them were level two and three wizards. Although they were indignant, they still chose to cooperate in a low-key manner and allowed the search to proceed.
Two hours later, Silver Gray returned to the bar in a rage. His face was even gloomier than before, and his eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness:
"I have 100% intelligence that a group of people from the Meteoric Council have passed through here. They must have left by now!"
He said this to Sirius, but Sirius was completely unmoved. He still looked leisurely and continued to sip his wine with his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he didn't care about Silver Gray's impatience at all.
"In four hours, I will reopen the pass."
Sirius reminded SilverGray lightly, his voice calm but with a hint of teasing.
Yinhui's expression became even uglier. He gritted his teeth and said, "Open now! Give me ten tickets. I want to chase him myself."
Sirius responded calmly, "One thousand magic stones. Also, don't forget to compensate me for my table before you leave. This table is not worth much, but I like it, so I want one thousand magic stones for it."
As soon as these words came out, Yinhui's face almost cracked. He was so angry that he threw his robe and threw out twenty intermediate-level magic stones, slamming them hard on the bar.
"Here you go, hurry up!"
Sirius threw out ten tokens, which were directly rolled up by Silver-Ash. He then turned around and led the wizard team behind him hurriedly towards the black gate, completely disregarding his image.
Sirius watched them leave leisurely, gently put away the magic stone, and continued to wipe the wine glasses and cocktail shakers.
…………………………
The Atlas Mountains tower into the clouds, so majestic that they seem like a natural barrier that separates the territories of the dark wizards and the white wizards.
Whether crossing the Atlas Mountains horizontally into the territory of the White Wizard or crossing this vast mountain range to the Red Swamp, it is not an easy task.
The dangers of the mountains are numerous and varied.
Thousands of years ago, this was the battlefield where black wizards and white wizards fought to the death, and countless corpses of wizards were buried in this land.
The powerful aura of witchcraft released by those wizards still lingers in the air.
Because of the unique geography and energy radiation here, the natural environment of the Atlas Mountains is extremely complex and unpredictable.
You can never predict the weather changes in the next moment: the sky may be clear in the last second, and there may be a raging thunderstorm in the next second.
Even more deadly are the ancient witchcraft formations scattered throughout the mountains. These formations are like buried traps, often silently attacking anyone who accidentally breaks in.
There are often unlucky people who suffer serious injuries or even die due to triggering these formations.
In addition, various wild monsters live in the dense forests.
The Atlas Mountains are vast in area, and the magical beasts living there are not only the first-level magical beasts that pose a threat to formal wizards, but there may even be terrifying second-level and third-level magical beasts hiding.
Yet, for all the dangers, this mountain range is also filled with opportunity.
Over thousands of years, countless wizards have fallen on this land. As time passed, the bodies of some wizards have long since decayed, but there are still many precious heritages left behind.
Countless witchcraft secrets and rare treasures are still buried deep in this land, waiting to be discovered by the right person.
In addition, the ruggedness and mystery of the Atlas Mountains have also given birth to many precious and extraordinary plants.
These plants grow in this abandoned mountain range and often fetch high prices due to their rarity and powerful medicinal properties.
This is also one of the purposes of many apprentices entering the mountains, to pick those extremely precious and extraordinary plants and make a profit from them.
As Dieter's team entered the mountains, they would reduce their numbers at regular intervals.
It’s not that anyone died in the mountains. This place is not very far from the teleportation point, so there are not any overly dangerous monsters.
They were people who voluntarily left the team and came to the mountains to explore and search for treasure. They walked with the team for a distance, and then chose to leave on their own initiative.
As night fell, the dense forests of the Atlas Mountains were shrouded in darkness, and the surroundings were so quiet that even the sound of the wind seemed to have disappeared.
However, darkness does not pose any obstacle to the wizard's apprentice.
A group of people walked through the woods with faint lights floating in the air. Each person emitted light of varying degrees from their bodies or hands, making the dark forest appear hazy with a dim glow.
Dieter, who was walking in the front, held a palm-sized crystal in his hand. There was a faint golden light flowing inside the crystal, like a small sun, illuminating the surrounding environment within a few meters clearly.
As he led the way, he said in a relaxed tone:
"We have just left the teleportation point. Based on past experience, as long as we don't speed up intentionally, we won't encounter any major dangers in the next day and night. Everyone can relax and adapt to the rhythm of the Atlas Mountains first..."
Having said that, most of the people in the team still had indifferent expressions and steady steps, with no intention of responding.
Even though the number of people had shrunk to less than twenty, everyone still maintained their silence, without any intention of communicating.
However, in this depressing atmosphere, one person stood out.
He was a young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a knight's armor, with a long sword on his waist, and his brows revealed the youthful vitality and unruliness.
Unlike those indifferent wizard apprentices, he seemed to be naturally outgoing and very friendly.
At this moment, he was approaching Dieter with excitement, and asked with shining eyes:
"Brother Dieter, do you often go this way? From your tone, it seems that you are very experienced!"
Dieter was stunned for a moment, then smiled a little embarrassedly, scratched his head, and said:
"No, no, this is my first time here, and my first time as a team leader. All my so-called experience is from books."
The young man immediately showed an exaggerated expression when he heard this, and he was amazed. He didn't seem to mind at all that Dieter was not a real veteran. Instead, he continued to chat with him more excitedly.
On the other side of the team, Lin En looked at the young Daven and guessed that his age might be about the same as his, both around sixteen and under seventeen.
However, I don't have the youthfulness of the other person. Instead, I am like an old man, cautious and calm...
But you know, he hasn't even had his coming-of-age ceremony yet...
"Stop talking nonsense... If you attract some magical beast with your chattering, you, a mortal, will be the first to die..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a bearded wizard apprentice spoke coldly, his voice full of disdain. Obviously, he had no interest in Daven and Dieter's chat, and even felt a little threatening.
Daven's expression changed instantly. Sensing the other party's hostility, he quickly apologized in a low voice: "Sorry, sorry, I disturbed you..."
The bearded wizard apprentice snorted coldly, completely ignored Daven's apology, and turned away without even looking at him.
Lin En glanced at the bearded wizard apprentice. He was a second-level apprentice with a mental strength of 11 points. He should have just entered the second-level apprenticeship not long ago...
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Judging from the other person's beard, he should be quite old, so his witchcraft aptitude is not very good. Of course, compared with ordinary people, he is definitely much stronger...
"He's not young physically, but he's very young mentally. If it were me, I wouldn't bother that mortal..."
As the saying goes, the most dangerous people in the world are women and children who look fragile, and the same is true in the wizarding world.
If this mortal is a fool who is seeking death, why would you bother with him? Why not just wait for him to die on his own initiative...
If this mortal has another hidden trick up his sleeve, and he is keeping it hidden, then why would you take the initiative to provoke him? Aren't you just asking for trouble?
Following the team, Lin En took drugs while learning witchcraft in his heart.
As God rewards hard work, Lin En will reap rewards as long as he works hard. Even if he studies half-heartedly now, he is still studying hard and will also gain rewards, but they will not be as fast as if he studies wholeheartedly.
At this moment, Lin En's mind was echoing with the first-level formal witchcraft template that he chose to use to be promoted to a formal wizard, the non-elemental first-level defensive witchcraft - Be Void and Be Quiet.
It is obviously impossible for him to fully understand this complicated first-level witchcraft now.
But this level of witchcraft can be subdivided into three zero-ring advanced witchcraft, namely the art of empty law, the art of non-violation, and the art of hexagram change.
Therefore, he could adapt to the three zero-ring advanced witchcrafts in advance, and once he was proficient in them, he could combine them to learn the complete Zhixu Shoujing, which would obviously be twice the result with half the effort.
"There are also differences in the levels of zero-ring advanced witchcraft. This kind of witchcraft, which is simplified from the formal witchcraft, is the most difficult one..."
Lin En thought so in his mind and started to learn the art of the law of space.
There are countless elements between heaven and earth, among which the four basic elements - water, fire, wind and earth - constitute the foundation of the world.
These four elements interact with each other to produce all things in the world, and also create various other new elements, such as electricity, light, shadow, etc.
The interactions between these elements are extremely complex; they restrain and intertwine each other, creating endless changes and possibilities.
The wizarding world has a profound research system on this, which is called "Higher Element Theory".
This theory specifically explores the reactions, combinations, and higher-level mysteries of the elements.
Lynn's understanding of elemental theory is not deep, and it can even be said that he only knows the basics.
The first level of formal sorcery he had chosen for himself did not rely directly on the elements.
But if we are to be serious, the composition of all things in the world is connected with the elements, and is composed of the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind.
Even humans can be classified as "human element", dragons as "dragon element", and so on.
Although Lin En's "Being Empty and Still" seems to be a non-elemental witchcraft, if it is understood from the perspective of elements, it can also be regarded as an element.
Unlike common elements, this element does not react with other elements. It is neither restrained nor restrains others.
Such elements are called "general elements" or "basic elements" or "ordinary elements".
The characteristic of this element is that there is no mutual restraint or interaction between any elements.
As for the three zero-ring advanced witchcrafts he chose - the art of empty law, the art of non-violation and the art of hexagram change.
They also belong to this category of "general elemental" witchcraft with non-restraint attributes.
"The Law of Void is not an ordinary attack or defense spell, but more like a buff-type gain spell. During the casting, it can keep the caster's mind active and clear, and will not be affected by mental interference such as charm and dizziness. In addition, it can speed up the thinking process and promote the recovery of mental strength."
Under the cover of night, the team traveled through the dense forests. Lin En followed silently behind them, with knowledge about the art of the void constantly emerging in his mind.
The essence of witchcraft is to use mental power to leverage the energy factors between heaven and earth, and then release powerful spells.
Except for witchcraft that relies purely on mental power, almost all witchcraft must follow this law, and the art of the law of emptiness is no exception.
However, unlike basic elements such as fire and water, general elements are not visible to the naked eye and are even more difficult to perceive.
This greatly increases the difficulty of learning the art of emptiness.
If Lin En didn't have the talent of God rewarding hard work, he would never have chosen such complicated witchcraft.
At present, what he had to do was to first master the theory of the Void Law Technique, and then try to find the energy factors between heaven and earth that were suitable for performing the spell, and finally to truly release this witchcraft...
…………………………
At the same time, at the teleportation point of the Stone City Pass, the figures of black-robed wizards slowly emerged one after another.
The leader was none other than the silver-gray wizard, a powerful third-level wizard.
"These people from the Meteoric Council have entered one of our bases before and triggered the fluctuations of the witchcraft formation, so they all have witchcraft marks on their bodies. They cannot be removed in a short period of time. You should pay attention to this!"
The silver-gray wizard looked grim and gave orders in a low voice:
"Divide into two groups! One team will follow me into the White Wizard's territory to search, and the other team will track along the Atlas Mountains! Once you find the target, don't act rashly. Send a signal first and wait for the reunion before taking action!"
As soon as the words fell, the ten figures quickly dispersed, turning into black streams of light and disappearing into the gray sky and earth...
