Chapter 640: Angelic Heritage
When a friend achieves sothing you could never dream of reaching, there are two possible reactions: The first is indifference. You neither envy nor aspire to it, treating it as distant news unrelated to you, continuing your peaceful life. The second is excitent/jealousy/desire. Whether the emotions are positive or negative, you no longer want to continue your past peaceful life but instead strive to climb closer to your friend!
Lois was initially the first type, but after summoning her spirit, she gradually leaned towards the second. From a wealthy young lady who only ‘knew a bit’ about swimming and had never even killed a Lala Fatty, she now dared to battle Blade Fish Dragons in the sea. This shows how much virtual realm exploration can hone a person.
This is the allure of the Virtual Realm.
Whether you are a noble above all beings or a wandering lower-level refugee in reality, in the Virtual Realm, you are alone. No help, no equipnt, the only one you can rely on is yourself.
Noble children, pampered from a young age and learning step by step, might lose heart after being killed by Blade Fish Dragons a few tis, resigning to a life of idleness, unwilling to enter the Virtual Realm. anwhile, lower-level sorcerers, who have honed their skills for survival and naturally summoned new spirits, can navigate the Virtual Realm like fish in water, gradually sailing thousands of miles, glimpsing the path to truth and power.
Lois had prepared herself for hardship, but when she actively embraced the challenges of the Virtual Realm, she found it wasn’t so daunting. From soone who had never fought, she beca adept at fleeing and fighting; soone who always maintained elegance and cleanliness learned to roll in the dirt; soone who was afraid to walk alone at night could now stay vigilant at all tis.
Gradually, Lois began to understand why, at gatherings, even those with noble titles and successful careers, if they were sorcerers, the prefix before their nas was always the sa.
Now, Lois rarely attends parties, but if she were to introduce herself to strangers, rather than as the daughter of a business association president or a Swordflower College student, she would prefer to say-
Water sorcerer Lois.
So, when she saw the white mist once again envelop the Sea of Knowledge, but with strange golden chains appearing in the sea, Lois didn’t hesitate or retreat but dove in to see what was happening.
Though diving deep into the Sea of Knowledge is a dead end, swimming for a few minutes isn’t a problem.
The Sea of Knowledge was originally pitch black and invisible, but now with the surrounding water, sweeping her inside. Lois was dumbfounded, instinctively holding onto the golden chain as she was carried through countless sea regions by the water flow!
Virtual realm chanics-Whirlpool?!
Lois was both surprised and delighted. It was indeed a Whirlpool, and she could clearly feel her silver spellforce rapidly increasing. This was indeed the special chanism that silver sorcerers most desired to encounter, the Whirlpool!
When Lois finally stopped, she found her silver spellforce had increased by three feathers, equivalent to a month’s worth of exploration effort! Though not much, it was free spellforce, and not everyone could achieve a silver full-winged state in a month like Sonya!
But Lois was more puzzled. If she wasn’t mistaken, the Whirlpool was clearly caused by her Riptide spirit, but she had never heard of a Riptide spirit having such an effect-if it could create Whirlpools, water spells would surely beco the most important basic education for the Stars people.
At this point, Lois realized she had arrived at another place. She stood on muddy ground, covered by a layer of clear seawater, with the ground extending forward. Even the white mist couldn’t obscure this road, and she couldn’t see its end!
Though it was her first ti seeing it, Lois, who had scored full marks in the “Overview of the Sea of Knowledge” course, recognized it at a glance: “This is-the Great Road!?”
The Sea of Knowledge has many unique chanisms: Whirlpools, Sea Waterfalls, the Great Road, Sky Bubbles. Except for the Whirlpool, which benefits sorcerers, the other chanisms, though rare, don’t offer much help to them.
“Why did the Whirlpool bring
to the Great Road?” Lois was full of questions.
Whoosh.
A spirit suddenly erged from the water on the ground, resembling a shark but appearing gentle. Soon, the surrounding water enveloped it, and as it continued to grow stronger, it transford into a three-ter-tall humanoid water monster!
Lois stepped back in fright, only then realizing she was still holding the golden chain! The chain suddenly contracted, tightly wrapping around her arm, and a stream of information flowed into her mind-
“Any water sorcerer can challenge the Trial of the Great Road and accept my Lake Angel’s heritage.”
“As long as you have a water spell spirit, you can reach the Great Road through the Whirlpool; on the Great Road, only water spell spirits can take effect. Each sorcerer can only trigger the Whirlpool once through their water spell spirit. Only by passing the Trial can you gain more opportunities to trigger the Whirlpool.”
As the humanoid water monster approached, Lois snapped back to reality-
The Lake Angel’s heritage!?
A heritage surpassing legendary sorcerers, second only to the Divine Sovereign!?
Ti Continent.
“This is the end…”
Furious, Danzel ordered the Spider Tower legion to engulf the Sealing Altar. Though killing the three Bewitchers was pointless, she had no reason not to eliminate the culprits who disrupted this Appointation War!
Annan spread her wings and said to the other two, “Let’s find a way to fly out and locate the Golden Flow.”
With the protection of the Six-tone Anchor, the heroic soul legion couldn’t harm them, but if they were cornered, Danzel could trap them in a static domain, turning them into a painting-frozen ti is the end of all things.
Their only escape was to find the Golden Flow, where even the heroic soul legion couldn’t enter, to safely exit the Virtual Realm and leave the danger behind!
Unfortunately, Ashe’s diary updates too slowly, and the Gospel chapter is much longer than the Blood Moon chapter. He hasn’t yet written about the truth of the Rainbow Tail, or Annan and the others could attempt to find the Rainbow Tail to ascend to the Sanctuary.
Just then, the Sealing Altar suddenly rumbled and rose from the ground! The three were shaken to the ground, watching as they ascended higher and higher, witnessing a grand, colossal city erging from the earth, stretching far into the distance!
This city was larger than any main city of the Six Nations! The Reverse Golden Rain acted as energy, flowing into every groove and crystal of the city until it was fully illuminated!
A moat ford by the Golden Flow surrounded this giant city!
“I can sll… the stench of those Blood Moon and Stars scum!”
With this voice full of anger, the minds of the three Bewitchers went blank-their spirits huddled together within their souls, their consciousness nearly shattered by this ancient pressure!
Simultaneously, an arc of light spread from the Sealing Altar, instantly obliterating all surrounding heroic soul legions. Countless ard troop types vanished in the arc of light! Only high-ranking commanders like Danzel managed to shield themselves with hundreds of layers of armor, barely withstanding the arc, rely being blown away!
The six fortresses sealing the central area also crumbled and disintegrated under the arc of light, turning to dust!
A golden and silver phantom appeared above the Sealing Altar, with five silver virtual wings and an obviously attached golden fake wing. Its appearance was indistinct, and most peculiarly, it was like an upside-down figure, with its head facing the ground and feet touching the sky.
“Return, my companions, my comrades, my followers, my citizens!”
With its proclamation, countless figures gradually appeared in the once-dead, empty giant city beneath the Bewitchers’ feet. Without exception, they stood straight, saluting, facing the upside-down phantom, their cheers echoing throughout the Ti Continent: “Endless Ti!”
“Endless Ti, but our ti has passed,” the upside-down phantom said. “I didn’t expect my arrangents to be forcibly drawn out by the Virtual Realm… so be it.”
It gently clapped its hands, its voice resonating across the Ti Continent: “I am Klo, the King of Ti, holding the supre authority of the Ti Continent!”
“The Virtual Realm heritage is open, the Eternal City reappears. Any ti sorcerer can cross the moat and enter the Eternal City to undergo the Trial of Death!”
“If you wish to obtain my ultimate heritage, co before … then.”
The upside-down phantom suddenly noticed that there were already three sorcerers on the Sealing Altar before it. Annan and Freya huddled together, trembling, while Sivirin had turned into a little bat, hiding in their embrace.
After a brief silence, it added, “You must at least obtain ten ordinary heritages in the Eternal City to gain my ultimate heritage.”
That rule was definitely added on the fly-if not for her teeth chattering in fear, Freya would have almost blurted it out.
