A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 569: Advancing to Level-2 Sorcerer

“Caw caw, Master, what’s going on down there?”

Grimm heard Little Myna say as soon as he returned to the Void Fortress using the Spacetime Coordinated Access, he pressed a finger onto his swollen forehead that was throbbing in pain while he looked downward from the edge of the fortress.

The Demon-Hunters had the situation under control and there were no signs of any Bloodprint Creatures.

The message from the Evil Blood Dreadlord was the only thing pending.

“Let’s go back.”

Grimm returned to his Demon-Hunter Castle along with Little Myna.

***

Half a year had gone by.

As a Nightmare Sorcerer, Grimm’s Fear Energy could only stimulate powerful meditation and mental strength when he was surrounded by more Sorcerers.

Just like Elemental Sorcerers who could master the force of nature, every Nightmare Sorcerer should have their own special ability that would generally be developed around their mental strength to strengthen the use of their Immortal Body.

The Void Fortress was constantly filled by tens of thousands of Sorcerers, and within half a year, Grimm had recovered more than 20 points of mental strength that he had lost from his Immortal Body.

The speed of his recovery was truly incredible!

Assuming Grimm were to advance as a Level-2 Sorcerer, it would only require two to three years for him to achieve 200 points of mental strength!

For half a year, news about the pursuit and runaway of the Evil Blood Dreadlord was constantly heard, it seemed that some of the Dreadlord’s preparation during the first attempt had caused the seal to be unsuccessful. Meanwhile, the incapability of fake Stigmata Sorcerers that were temporarily raised by the energy sources of lower Sorcerer Towers in the Void Fortress had caused a missing part on the Six Eternal Seal.

Therefore, by taking advantage of that, the Evil Blood Dreadlord had succeeded in fleeing every single time in the complicated underground environment.

“Where are we heading to, Master?”

Upon full recovery and achieving optimal mental strength, Grimm led Little Myna to leave the Void Fortress and penetrated into the clouds in the sky, as they passed by all sorts of Magnetite Stones, that were around the Grand Peak Magnetite Stars that surrounded the area, with different sizes.

The Grand Peak Magnetite Stars were gradually showing signs of falling as they were being repelled by the entire World Force.

Half of them were below the sea of clouds while another half were above the sea of clouds, and the amount of Magnetite Stones surrounding the Grand Peak Magnetite Stars had also greatly reduced.

“Toward the distorted dimension above the sea of clouds!”

Grimm and Little Myna flew toward an even higher altitude.

Cloud layers or sea of clouds were merely the internal high altitude atmosphere of the world that were coined by the Sorcerers, as there was not any actual layer of clouds.

Laws across different worlds would cause distorted dimensions from tens of thousands of meters up to hundreds of thousands of meters high, and it was a common law found in the Endless World to have distorted dimensions that merged both matter energy and void energy in a combined space.

While in the presence of the Heavenly Water Screen, such space would be different from the Sorcerers World.

Grimm continued to fly higher while he held onto the Mysterious Thunder Branch, although he was already in the Distorted Dimensions, he could still feel that the Mysterious Thunder law was at an even higher altitude, an area that was close to complete voidness.

“Void border?”

Upon advancing as World Lords, powerful lifeforms could rely on their own compelling and valiant body to explore the infinite void without requiring any knowledge on the Boundary of Relative Space or ability to communicate with the Foreign Worlds, and they would be able to reach the infinite void by just flying toward a higher altitude in the sky.

The period of exploring the boundless infinite void would be measured in hundreds of years as it came with the possibility of encountering countless of unknown worlds.

“Caw caw, Master, you are saying that the Mysterious Thunder law of this branch originated from the void border of the Material World?”

Myna asked anxiously.

“Hmm.”

As Grimm continued to get closer to the source of the law, there was only one last barrier left before he could actually get to it, to the point that he could already clearly feel the location of the mysterious law, however, he could not understand how it could withstand and contain the Destructive Force.

Gradually, the traces of Magnetites were getting less in the distorted dimension and Magnetite Stones that floated around were small and insignificant, as they were only more than ten meters in size.

However, Grimm continued to fly toward an ever higher altitude of the distorted dimension and it was clear that the nature force in the surroundings was also reducing and becoming more irritable.

“Huh? Master, now it all makes sense. The fundamental Destructive Force of the Endless World is the hedging of void energy and matter energy, is that right? Therefore, other repelling energy that hedges against each other are also simulating the same condition.”

Little Myna paused for a moment in his thoughts.

“Caw caw caw, there must be something in between that has restricted the Destructive Force, since the Material World and the Void World did not destroy the opposite world! Am I right?”

Ehh?

Grimm looked at Little Myna as he was surprised that he was able to put together his thoughts to figure this out!?

The explanation from Little Myna seemed justifiable.

After two hourglasses of difficult ascent, Grimm had used up a huge amount of magical power to sustain the Sorcerer’s Barrier against the irritable forces around him; soon, Grimm could sense that he was extremely close to the Mysterious Thunder law.

After a long period of time seeking around, Grimm managed to identify a giant piece of Magnetite Stone which was more than ten meters in size while it was floating within the irritable energy.

The Giant Magnetite Stone was dark brown in color and had defined edges, it was releasing Magnetite Rays that were quickly diminished by the Distorted Energy in the surroundings; from afar, it looked like a floating stone that was releasing faint light.

Grimm sat down quietly on the piece of Giant Magnetite Stone.

Occasionally, there were Neon Auroras from the Foreign World that curved as they passed around Grimm.

After putting away the Sabbatic Goat Staff, Grimm took out the branch again with his aged hands.

It had almost been a thousand years since the vertical cut that was cut out on the branch during his days as a Sorcerer-Apprentice, it had now become a small circular center that seemed to be demonstrating a world that was constantly being observed and studied by him.

Boom…

A ray of lightning that disappeared quickly was caught by Grimm’s Dynamic Vision, it seemed as if the duration of the lightning was prolonged by tens of thousands of times, and it was as if Grimm was able to see a perfect world that was waving at him through a sunroof.

“Is this…”

Grimm’s body trembled in a mixed expression of excitement and pain while he could barely complete his sentence, it seemed as if he had experienced an electric shock; then, he slowly raised his head.

Bang!

A dense and dark-purple lightning slit through the boundary between the world and the void, as if a giant net that was protecting the world had appeared before Grimm, the law that was originally invisible had now become irritated and started to gather toward a center point from all directions, forming into a lightning ball.

“Master, the World Veil law, this is it!”

Little Myna shouted and flew into a far away distance.

The rolling dark-purple World Veil law in the sky was like a giant funnel that was pointed toward Grimm, and the unpleasant aura of it would cause everyone in the surroundings to tremble.

A booming sound was heard when the unpleasant aura targeted Grimm’s sorcerer’s robe, disintegrating it into ashes before the irritable energy in the surroundings dispersed them.

Grimm would definitely know about the World Veil law.

A law that balanced and protected the Endless World, prohibiting entry of any external forces that exceeded the withstanding power of the internal world, enemies would need to penetrate the World Veil before entering the world!

However, Grimm did not expect that the World Veil law would also have the power to prohibit hedging of Destructive Force between the Material World and the Void Energy.

Therefore, it would justify how the Mysterious Thunder law could withstand the Destructive Force with just a little space energy.

Well then…

Boom!

In less than one-eighteenth of a second of True Time, a speed that was beyond Grimm’s sensing capability, the dark-purple lightning ball that was formed by the Magnetite World and the Infinite Void had converged into the World Veil law and blasted a lightning strike that was tens of meters in length.

The Magnetite Stone below Grimm was immediately disintegrated into ashes.

Little Myna was hiding far away, observing the situation from the Starfall Reconnaissance Craft while the dash of furious dark-purple lightning channeled onto Grimm and covered him entirely.

The furious lightning only lasted for a short moment, and after it had disappeared, the World Veil law reverted to a calm state before it disappeared from the sky.

Little Myna looked at the Distorted Dimension that had turned empty and goosebumps appeared all over his body, he continued to shout, “My Lord!”

Huh?

Something had caught Little Myna’s attention, and he immediately put the Starfall Reconnaissance Craft into the Dimensional Gap, as a distorted interconnected spacetime then appeared on Grimm’s shoulder.

“What place is this?”

Little Myna immediately realized that the intensified Magnetite Ray had appeared in the area that was surrounded by floating Magnetite Islands, while a shocking number of tens of thousands of Magnetites crowded the area.

It was the top of the Grand Peak Magnetite Star.

In just a split second, had the lightning of the World Veil law brought Grimm to this place from the Void Border?

“Master Grimm… huh? Ah, Master, are you okay?”

Grimm was naked and exposed in the air, while his body that had aged from the previous failed advancement had now transformed to become lively and refined.

His golden hair floated as he looked at his hands and could not believe what had just happened.

“Great! Absolutely great! Never been this great! I can feel the energy filling every cell of mine, this… is the Element Tank Energy Advancement of Level-2 Elemental Sorcerers! I have made it, I have successfully completed the advancement as a Level-2 Sorcerer! Hahahaha…”

Grimm raised his head and let out a loud laugh while his golden hair fell gently.

After the failed attempt of Ice Element Tank advancement to a Level-2 Sorcerer in the Nightmare World, Grimm had now experienced the element tank from the World Veil law lightning and successfully advanced as a Level-2 Sorcerer, it was a life-changing transformation!

Henceforth, Grimm was a Level-2 Demon-Hunter in the Sorcerers World.

Upon returning to the Sorcerers World, the Demon-Hunter Castle should also be moved to the cliffs of the Seven Rings Tree of Life.
