Chapter 209: Going Through A Checkpoint
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What? I can’t leave?”
Hearing the astonishnt in the fla sprite’s voice, rlin asked in a hurry.
The fla sprite fell into a deep thought for a mont before saying, “You could go and give it a try. See if you can leave.”
rlin gave the fla sprite a suspicious look but he still turned around and darted into the hole, coming out on the first floor of the ancient tower.
There was not a single soul on the entire first floor. It was extrely quiet.
Imdiately, rlin ca before that thick slab of stone door. Previously, Wizard Riesen had set down this stone door to trap rlin in the ancient tower.
“Furious Fla!”
rlin imdiately cast Furious Fla. For a few monts, scorching high temperatures rose and even caused so explosions. Nevertheless, there was not the slightest bit of effect where the stone door was struck.
Hence, rlin raised his hand and pointed at the stone door forcefully with his white finger.
“Swoosh!”
A chill suddenly flew toward the stone door, freezing it. After so strange cracking noises, the entire stone door was completely frozen solid.
“Bang!”
rlin cast several Fireballs as well, blasting them violently upon the stone door. How horrifying was the chill of Glacial Finger? Even Third-level spells could not block it. However, the chill of Glacial Finger was absolutely helpless against this stone door now.
“Just as I’d expected, it won’t break open.”
rlin furrowed his eyebrows tightly. He did not continue his attempts at blowing this stone door open because he knew that no matter what, he would not be able to blast it open.
Thus, rlin returned to the underground and ca before the fla-shaped statue.
“Fla sprite, is there a way to blow that stone door open?”
rlin lowered his voice and asked. He had a sort of a vague and bad feeling about this.
“Blow the stone door open? Wizard rlin, forget about ever blowing that stone door open. This ancient tower was built because Master had wanted to defend against a great enemy. Nobody knows how many Runic Magic Circles have been arranged in the entire ancient tower. That huge door has also been inlaid with countless Runic Magic Circles. Unless they’re powerful Great Wizards, no one should even think about blowing this stone door open.”
The fla sprite spoke slowly. anwhile, a change washed over rlin’s face imdiately. He seed to be very gloomy.
Only Great Wizards could blow the stone door open. rlin had only seen Sixth-level Spell Casters so far even in the Dark Magic Region. He had never seen Seventh-level Spell Casters or above, what more the legendary Great Wizards.
Only a Great Wizard could blow that stone door open, so rlin no longer had much hope in doing so.
The fla sprite saw rlin’s gloomy expression. Suddenly, it opened its mouth and said, “Wizard rlin, if you wish to leave the ancient tower, you don’t necessarily have to blow that stone door open!”
“Eh? Could it be that there are other passages leading out of the ancient tower?”
rlin could sense the implied aning of the fla sprite’s words; thus, he made his inquiry hurriedly.
“Of course there are other ways to leave the ancient tower. Back then, while building this tower, Master had already considered sealing up all exits if powerful enemies were to co. Then, Master would leave the ancient tower by using the Runic Magic Circle that had been set in place beforehand.”
“Then where’s the Runic Magic Circle?”
rlin’s face lit up with delight. There was finally hope for him to leave.
However, the fla sprite shook its head and said, “For safety purposes, this Runic Magic Circle had been set by Master in a secret chamber. Only the successful cultivation of the first form of Fiery Collapse could grant entry into the secret chamber.”
“The first form of Fiery Collapse? I can cultivate that right away!”
Hurriedly, rlin commanded the Matrix. “Matrix, export all information about Fiery Collapse.”
Very quickly, the requirents to cultivate Fiery Collapse appeared in rlin’s mind. What he needed first was a First-level spell like Furious Fla or Sea of Flas. As long as he possessed any one of these two spells, he would be able to cultivate Fiery Collapse smoothly.
Of course, other than the most basic requirent of a First-level spell, it also required so extrely precious treasures, like how it had been for Glacial Finger.
During the first stage of Glacial Finger, only one type of treasure – the hundred years’ ice bone marrow, was required. This Fiery Collapse was much more complicated and needed a lot of treasures such as the hellfire essence and firestone. rlin had never even heard of most of the treasures.
However, to a certain extent, the more treasures that were required for a Pandora Demon Ability, the greater its power would be if the cultivation was successful. It was clear which of them was stronger; Glacial Finger had only two stages but Fiery Collapse possessed three forms. Glacial Finger was rely a Pandora Demon Ability with an average power amongst the Pandora Demon Abilities and could not be compared to Fiery Collapse – not by a long shot.
“So much treasure... Fla sprite, didn’t you say that the master of the ancient tower has left so treasure for cultivating Fiery Collapse in the ancient tower?”
The fla sprite nodded and said, “That’s right. Back then, Master had left behind many treasures indeed. Only by staying in the ancient tower can one obtain these treasures. However, the treasures aren’t so easy to get. Master had placed the treasures inside a secret chamber with a guardian keeping watch outside. You can only enter the secret chamber and acquire the treasures left behind by Master if you defeat the guardian.”
“So, I’d still need to defeat the guardian before I can get the treasure?”
rlin frowned. The master of this ancient tower was truly cautious.
“That’s right. You must defeat the guardian to get the treasures! Back then, Master had left suddenly, as though he had a premonition about sothing. That’s why he’d set a few secret chambers carefully. After all, Fiery Collapse was the result of Master’s lifelong blood, sweat, and tears. One would have to be more powerful than the average Spell Caster to be Master’s successor!”
The fla sprite spoke slowly.
rlin nodded. It seed that the master of this ancient tower used to be a mighty Spell Caster. He had suddenly left for unknown reasons, but Fiery Collapse was the fruit of his lifelong labor; he would not pass it on easily.
Therefore, he had only left the cultivation thod for Fiery Collapse but so of the treasures for cultivating Fiery Collapse had been placed in a secret chamber in the ancient tower. If he could not obtain the treasures in the secret chamber, getting the cultivation thod for Fiery Collapse would still be useless.
For example, Wizard Riesen had done all that he could think of but he had not expected that he would not be able to cultivate Fiery Collapse after obtaining it. It was like receiving a piece of blank paper which was completely useless.
“Alright, fla sprite, bring to the secret chamber!”
rlin took a deep breath and spoke to the fla sprite. He was confident of himself. rlin had already constructed five First-level spells other than Dark Light Realm, which was enough for him to fight so Second-level Spell Casters. In addition, he also had Enhancing casting tools, and his Defensive spells were not weaker than those of so Third-level Spell Casters.
He also had Glacial Finger, which was completely capable of defeating Third-level Spell Casters. That was why, when it ca to facing the guardian set by the master of the ancient tower, rlin was very confident that he could defeat the guardian and obtain the treasures left behind by the master of the ancient tower.
The fla sprite nodded. Thereafter, slivers of peculiar mind fluctuation appeared on its body.
Then, there was a rumble.
In the vast hall, a thick stone door was slowly rising from behind the fla-shaped statue, revealing a spacious room inside.
The fla sprite opened its mouth and spoke slowly, “Wizard rlin, the secret chamber is inside. However, if you’re no match for the guardian, all you have to do is leave the secret chamber, and the guardian will stop attacking you. Rember, if you can’t defeat it the first ti, you can try a second ti or a third. If you’re killed by the guardian, you’d never have another chance.”
rlin nodded, making a ntal note of the fla sprite’s words. Following which, he imdiately entered the secret chamber.
In the secret chamber, rlin could see that the inside of the room was empty and extrely spacious. In a corner of the secret chamber was a strange creature with a completely white body. It looked like a beautiful rabbit.
“Finally, soone has co... Young Spell Caster, I’m a follower of the great Wizard Dowland. You may call Lister.”
This strange creature that looked suspiciously like a “rabbit” could even speak a human language. It was extrely mystical.
rlin knew that Wizard Dowland was the na of the master of the ancient tower, and this strange creature that looked suspiciously like a “rabbit” was rather complicated. It could look non-frightening at all, but rlin could sense strong Ice-type Elental fluctuation from its body.
A realization flashed through rlin’s mind instantly. Imdiately, he knew the identity of this being who looked suspiciously like a “rabbit”. It was an Elental Monster that had evolved into an Elental Being!
Only Elental Beings could control Elents with such ease. Even the Spell Models for Frigid Ice and Frost in rlin’s body had been unable to absorb any Ice Elents when he entered this room. All of them had been forcefully “robbed” by this “rabbit” Elental Being.
This was also the frightening thing about Elental Beings. Back then, the silver-haired old man had wanted to evolve the Dark Vampire Bats into Elental Beings. If the evolution had succeeded, the powers of those Elental Beings would imdiately increase by two-fold and would be on par with at least Third-level Spell Casters.
In fact, this “rabbit’ Elental Being’s powers could have already surpassed those of a typical Third-level Spell Caster. rlin could even feel a strong threat emanating off its body.
“Guardian Monunt!”
Carelessness was sothing rlin did not dare to risk. Instantly, he used the Enhancing casting tools to release the strengthened version of Guardian Monunt. rlin was extrely cautious in facing this “rabbit” Elental Being.
Seeing the dusky light glowing from the stone monunt on rlin’s body, this “rabbit” Elental Being suddenly stood up. For a mont, its body began to grow; both its legs started to straighten up and beca incomparably robust and strong.
anwhile, its white fur also began to transform; half of it turned black. A pair of sharp claws appeared, emanating a chill light. All the Ice Elents in the room had completely converged around the body of this “rabbit” Elental Being.
“Pandora Demon Ability, Glacial Finger!”
rlin did not hesitate; he imdiately displayed his most powerful ability. Elental Beings were not easy to cope with as they were on par with at least Third-level Spell Casters. The other spells rlin possessed were no match at all for this “rabbit” guardian.
“Swoosh!”
Instantly, a burst of chill shot toward the “rabbit” guardian. At first, this big and tall “rabbit” had a rather callous attitude. However, its expression changed completely after it felt the chill, which it dodged with great agility.
“Crack.”
The chill of Glacial Finger caused all the walls of the secret chamber to be completely frozen solid.
“Pandora Demon Ability, you’ve actually cultivated a type of Pandora Demon Ability! Hehe, but it’s no use, you’re too slow!”
The “rabbit” guardian could recognize imdiately that Glacial Finger displayed by rlin was a Pandora Demon Ability. Nevertheless, it did not look frightened at all. Instead, it could hardly sit still from eagerness and had a sheer excitent on its face.
“Bang!”
With both legs, the “rabbit” guardian gave a vicious kick. Instantly, its body beca a blur; in the blink of an eye, it disappeared on the spot. All of that happened at a speed which even rlin’s strengthened version of Wind of Freedom would not be able to compete with.
It was no surprise that the “rabbit” guardian was not afraid of rlin’s Glacial Finger because it moved at such a high speed. It made it as if it was a joke for rlin if he possessed a stronger Pandora Demon Ability if he was unable to bind the “rabbit” guardian.
The “rabbit” guardian moved extrely fast. In the blink of an eye, it had co before rlin. Following which, its body seed to inflate at an explosive rate once again, growing to a height of more than three feet, turning into a horrifying monster.
Gigantic, sharp claws struck down viciously toward rlin’s head.
