Lar Star - Soul Holy Palace.
Lin Suo, in his original form as Mr. Soul Spirit, sent Soul Scholar Steffi to the Truth Academy for the adjudication trial to support Wizard Rhein and undermine the conspiracy of the Heart-eating Gentleman.
For this, he paid a companion and continually guided her in making Death Water as compensation, after which Steffi reluctantly agreed.
But fate was not on their side.
The matter of justice had to be delayed, as a civil war broke out within the Truth Council. From the information on the Magic Net, Lin Suo understood that it was due to his initiative in eliminating the powers behind the Heart-eating Gentleman.
This led to a series of chain reactions.
He was like a fire starter, exploited by those with intentions.
If taking advantage of the chaos, it wasn’t necessarily required for Soul Scholar Steffi herself to visit.
"Miss Steffi, do you have any witchcraft or thods to verify the compatibility of soul essence with the body?"
Upon hearing this, Steffi gave Lin Suo a surprised look.
"Generally, it’s very simple to verify, just ingest the Crystal Diamond Potion."
"No, you misunderstand, I need a more sophisticated thod, one that identifies different soul essences fundantally."
"What’s the price for that?"
Lin Suo: "..."
Dealing with a wizard’s money-grubbing nature is truly difficult. After another exchange of soul study knowledge, Lin Suo learned from Steffi a purely auxiliary type of Legendary Witchcraft and magic potion technique.
Fundantally, this is a type of Contract Witchcraft, but signing requires an imprint of the soul essence.
Once the soul essence is captured, other thods can be used to verify; this is considered a compromise.
There’s another thod, related to magic potions.
Specifically prepared for those soul bodies that seize physical bodies. In this world, only the original bodies have a 100% compatibility, thus all entities that take over another’s body.
They would be tempted by . This temptation is a primal instinctual reaction, uncontrollable, all reborn by seizing souls would go mad for it, completely losing their sanity.
If things really don’t work out, Lin Suo could use fishing tactics to lure the Heart-eating Gentleman out and kill him, and naturally, the accusations would dissolve.
Plan successful!
Having achieved his goals, Lin Suo imdiately left the Night’s Son Star System, boarded his unregistered starship, ready to return to Thorny Star to take charge, and prepare to deploy the fleet to demonstrate power.
But now was not yet the ti.
As the war between the Star Sea branch and the main family escalated, those shadowy devils would surface, and the opportunist would enter the scene, which is the main course of this gluttonous feast.
He could still wait a bit.
The journey back was close to three months, Lin Suo naturally wouldn’t do nothing; his consciousness descended on the Space Titan Avatar detained in the Forbidden Magic Tower.
This guy had been imprisoned for several years.
The so-called Forbidden Magic Tower is a wizard prison established by the Golden Chairman of the Golden Family, often imprisoning wizards who committed cris.
The stronger the wizard’s power and the richer their knowledge, the deeper they were placed in the tower.
It should be noted that the Forbidden Magic Tower is an underground tower extending downwards.
Inside, there is no energy, and even ntal fluctuations are completely restricted; no wizard has ever escaped from the Forbidden Magic Tower.
Of course, it might also be because no Immortal beings have ever been imprisoned here...
Lin Suo’s Space Titan Avatar was detained on the tenth floor.
Surrounded by peak-level official wizards, it seed he was underestimated.
This was normal, after all, this avatar had never shown its strength.
Previously, the main consciousness didn’t pay much attention here; too busy outside, how could he pay attention to what was inside the prison.
So, upon discovering the situation here now, Lin Suo was a bit surprised, and he also saw an old acquaintance.
Hey, the universe is vast, but he has old friends everywhere!
The cell’s environnt wasn’t bad, equipped with furniture, sofas, and soft beds, just suspended mid-air in a cage made from a special Forbidden Magic tal, with all sides open.
The environnt was dim, on Lin Suo’s left, was his old acquaintance.
A Nine Ring Wizard, Reynolds Augustus.
Honestly, Lin Suo thought Reynolds had perished in the disaster that destroyed the Mother Star; after all, an old swindler dragging a young swindler, being imprisoned by the Dan Dong Empire, it didn’t make sense for him to have survived.
— Knock knock knock!
He knocked on the wooden table by the iron railing, attracting Reynolds Augustus’s attention.
Lin Suo spoke up.
"Isn’t this the old swindler? What cri of fraud did you commit this ti?"
His appearance as the Space Avatar was completely different from Lin Suo’s original body, leaning more towards a creature from the Void, so even after being detained for several years, they didn’t interact much.
Using such a familiar tone to greet him really made Reynolds pause for a while, and he asked doubtfully.
"Who might you be?"
Lin Suo rolled his eyes.
"Rhein, Rhein Lin."
The grudges between the two, after Reynolds actively admitted to stealing Twilight Power and triggered a curse causing widespread death, were essentially resolved. Lin Suo’s current ditation thod was obtained from Reynolds and enhanced through synthesis.
The two had deep connections.
In the early days when he was accumulating resources, although it was semi-coercive, it also made him quite a fortune, and there was never a fallout in the end.
Reynolds, though an old trickster, has a good reputation and propriety in the eyes of Lin Suo.
"Rhein?!"
"Impossible!"
Reynolds Augustus exclaid, leaning forward and scrutinizing the space avatar’s appearance in the dim light.
The conclusion was not alike at all! There was nothing similar in the aura either, he said irritably.
"What nonsense are you spouting, how could that sly kid be locked up here, do you know Rhein?"
"It really is , the Moon God Talisman forgery case, have you forgotten?"
"This..."
"The one locked up here is one of my avatars, that old fla of yours, Mada Rose, and that young person who is either your disciple or daughter, Vera, how are they?"
Reynolds appeared conflicted, and after a mont of contemplation, he said sorrowfully.
"They’re all dead."
"Dead, huh... Sorry to hear that, but how did you end up here?"
A rare encounter with an old acquaintance.
After believing Lin Suo’s words, Reynolds leaned against the iron railing, calmly sharing his experiences over the years.
"Being a hunter for too long, sotis you beco the prey."
"After the destruction of Padolon, I was secretly rescued by the people from the Silver Star Alliance, and my cris were acquitted by them, but for decades I’ve been forging resources for them."
"The Lord of Exploration from the Silver Stars, every year they take a considerable amount of counterfeit resources from , offering them as taxes to the Truth Council."
"A few years ago, there was an internal conflict in the Truth Council, I heard it was a clash between our main lineage and a branch in the Star Sea, and the counterfeits I made were provided as resources to the mbers of the Star Sea branch."
"Then I was arrested for forgery, war propaganda, espionage, and incitent of division, becoming the scapegoat for the whole affair."
"I was sentenced to life..."
Lin Suo’s eyes twitched, boy, that’s a lot of charges, he’d only committed corruption and the cri of slaughtering colleagues, a thousand-year sentence.
"So, you were frad? Hasn’t your strength progressed in all these years?"
Reynolds Augustus gave a bitter smile upon hearing this.
"I ca from a background of the Wild Wizards, initially when forming the Magic Rings, the first three Rings had no connection at all, until I acquired the inheritance of the Starry Sky ditation thod and ford the Magic Rings of the Star Realm Witchcraft."
"Only a part was corrected, but the chances of forming a Domain are still abysmally low, I don’t even have a [Ring Fusion Base], how could I dare to try."
Lin Suo imdiately understood.
That’s why Reynolds initially sched for the Twilight Power, because it can baptize Magic Rings, making all ford Magic Rings possess the characteristics of Dusk. After possessing it, such Mixed Ring Wizards like him would have a chance to ascend to Legendary.
Lin Suo’s eyes shifted.
The entire ten levels of the Forbidden Magic Tower held hundreds of Nine Ring Wizard criminals.
Talking about top talents in certain aspects, these people were definitely extrely skilled.
For instance, the master forger, Reynolds Augustus.
Righteous Earl Rhein certainly wouldn’t exploit a crisis.
This group of cuties unexpectedly matches well with Leviathan...
And the prison wasn’t filled entirely with utterly vile individuals.
Similar to Reynolds, those from humble backgrounds possessing a particular skill who have lost all hope of ascending to Legendary, ca in to take the bla for others or to be scapegoats.
But for Lin Suo, rging nine Rings into one was very simple.
Especially with the advancent of the Power of Synthesis now applicable to living beings.
They were perfect recruitnt targets.
"Old Reynolds, what do you think about these fellow inmates?"
"Fellow inmates?"
As the saying goes, wherever there are people, there are societies, even in a Transcendent Prison, those with connections live better.
For instance, Lin Suo’s cell has top-notch furniture, while those without connections like Reynolds have beds made of palm mats.
The mats were terribly prickly.
Every month, these suspended cages would be lowered to the ground to give the prisoners a chance to move around, and such tis were often when mischief occurred.
Little things from outside, bringing a woman in to relax and so on.
"You’ve been here so long, never having gone down, you’re considered one of the odd ones in Zone Ten."
Reynolds pondered thoughtfully.
"If you have other thoughts, count in."
"Sure, tell more about this place."
Prepare for the worst.
If all fails, escaping the Forbidden Magic Tower is also an option, the space avatar is one of the lines Lin Suo values highly, compatible with the Power of Ti.
Needs so reforging.
Sooner or later, he’ll leave, and naturally, it would be better to bring back more gains.
Thus, Reynolds began to describe the talent market of the Forbidden Magic Tower, for Lin Suo to pick from.
"Blood Finger, quintuplets with psychic powers, all main practitioners of the physical body as Shadow Wizards, rumored to have been imprisoned for assassinating a high-ranking official of the Truth Council."
"Poison Wolf Maris, a werewolf with witch qualifications, imprisoned for his unique Wolf Poison Witchcraft experint which killed an entire city of Centaurs."
"Night Enchanting Witch, three female witches from the Blood Clan, blood-sucking monsters created by Silver Star researchers, quite mad, imprisoned after a research accident."
"Black Demon Dragon, a Giant Dragon criminal who devours its kind..."
