The Toad continued, "If my mory serves right, when you ascend to a Level 4 Wizard now, you don’t achieve such effects. Because only the first breakthrough Wizard from this plane can create rules that beco the basic rules of this world. Wizards who ascend to Level 4 thereafter will have a domain of their own, where their rules are effective within its range."
Herag listened thoughtfully as the information from the Toad reminded him of the connection between the World Will and the Child of the Plane.
The World Will selects the Child of the Plane to help the Child grow.
Herag initially thought that the Child of the Plane was just a tool for the World Will to solve problems it couldn’t handle itself, like eliminating invaders from Other Planes.
But now it seems, the role of the Child of the Plane is more than that.
Once the Child of the Plane’s power reaches a certain level, it hits the upper limit of this plane.
If the Child can break through this upper limit, it can lead the entire plane to start ascending.
From Low-tier World to Middle-tier World, and then from Middle-tier World to High-tier World.
Although different worlds have different power systems, the general principle of ascension is roughly the sa.
Most planes initially only possess so basic rules, while a few planes start with so foundational rules different from other planes.
For these planes to ascend from a Low-tier World to a Middle-tier World, their world rules themselves need to be enhanced.
Once the rules are enhanced, the plane can accommodate more powerful beings and beco a higher-tier world.
Plane ascension is an extrely slow process, not sothing that happens right after soone breaks the limit, requiring a long ti.
It could be so long that the person who broke the limit might have been dead for many years before the ascension is completed.
For a plane, individual entities aren’t really important; the so-called Child of the Plane is rely a tool.
Once a Child of the Plane dies, the World Will can quickly select another Child of the Plane.
The Toad continued, "Although I have forgotten many things, I recall that the Wizard Plane was very powerful, almost the top plane among Middle-tier Worlds. I distinctly rember that the Wizard Plane seed to have already embarked on the path to ascending to a High-tier World. But now it’s still a Middle-tier World. I wonder what happened."
Herag sighed and said, "Not only that, the Wizard Plane is now very weak, with the strongest being just a Level 4 Wizard. Once the Abyss descends, no one can resist the invasion of the Abyss."
"Only Level 4?" The Toad showed a sowhat shocked expression for the first ti.
Not shocked at the strength, but shocked at how weak it was.
It was normal for the Toad to look down on a Level 4, given that his true form was Level 6 in strength.
Even if this projection’s offensive thods equated to rely Level 3, he had every right to look down on Level 4 Wizards.
Herag nodded and said, "That’s right, I’ve been considering how to survive the disaster of Abyss invasion lately too."
"Just go to other planes," the Toad said.
Herag said, "That’s what I thought too, but the problem now is that there are too few channels. I might qualify to enter so Small Planes of Serlandir, but my friends do not, and I don’t want to see them all perish. And other larger planes, like the Elf Plane, are in a state of war."
"If I want to enter the Elf Plane, it’s also difficult to take others with ..."
Herag suddenly paused as he realized that he had the Black Space Level 3 Witchcraft, which he could use to take people into other planes.
Though Black Space was sowhat dull and monotonous, it could support life.
At that ti, as long as we prepared supplies in advance, many people could survive inside for a long ti.
This is also why Black Space is a Level 3 Witchcraft; in so sense, it’s equivalent to a Small Plane.
It just didn’t have as complete world rules as a real plane, appearing sowhat dead.
But that wasn’t a problem for temporarily storing so people inside.
If Herag first put Reese and others into Black Space, then found a place for them in the Elf Plane, there’d be no need to worry about Reese and others dying in the calamity brought by the Abyss invasion.
The current issue was how to enter the Elf Plane; it seed like joining the pioneering war was the only way.
But Parker was severely injured in the Elf Plane and hasn’t shown up since coming back.
Herag also didn’t know the situation over in the Elf Plane; it might also be very dangerous.
The Toad didn’t know Herag was pondering these things and said, "If the Wizard Plane truly has only the strength you’ve ntioned, then it absolutely cannot resist an invasion from the Abyss. If you want to survive the invasion wars ahead, then leaving is your only path."
Herag nodded and silently planned his subsequent moves.
The invasion from the Abyss Plane wouldn’t arrive so soon; establishing a space channel required ti.
More importantly, Herag had seen glimpses of future fragnts and knew that so ti was needed before the Abyss invasion.
Before that, he needed to enhance his power as much as possible to face the crisis-laden future.
The imdiate threat still ca from Fran, the Level 3 Wizard, which had kept Herag from leaving Silver Moon City for years, unable to think of a way to eliminate this hidden danger.
But now, with the Toad’s involvent, Herag felt it wasn’t as difficult to solve.
Herag said, "I understand too that I can’t do much in the face of such a huge upheaval; keeping myself and those around safe is already good enough. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the library to see if I can find any information to help you rember certain things."
The Toad said, "Hmm, much appreciated. If you find trouble, just summon right away."
"Want to go out and have a look? If our guesses are correct, you too were once a part of the Wizard Plane, so it’s like coming ho." Herag said.
The Toad’s face showed a complex human-like expression, and after a mont of silence, he nodded, "Let’s go take a look."
The Toad was now just a projection, and his aura was so perfectly concealed that no one could tell that he was a Demon from the Abyss Plane.
Herag opened the door, and Reese was about to co over into his embrace, but she was startled to see the basketball-sized Toad on the floor: "What... what is that!"
The Toad’s appearance was indeed quite hideous, very ugly to behold.
Herag laughed, "This is the ssenger I just summoned."
"A ssenger? Couldn’t you make a contract with a better-looking one? All we have are cute little elves," Reese said, sowhat dismissively.
