Versatile Mage: I have a proficiency panel
Chapter 120: Lost Land
“Well, he is a powerful monarch after all, and he is running away just like that?” Looking at the receding figure of the Fire Wing Overlord, Apas couldn’t help but be surprised at its decisiveness.
“To be able to occupy a place near Kunlun Mountain, one must know how to seek benefits and avoid harm. Those who are short-sighted and brainless can rarely grow to this level.” Bai Jue retracted his gaze. Since the Fire Wing Overlord knew when to leave, he would not attack him.
“Come, hold on to me, let’s go down too. Now that we’re nearby, let’s take a closer look.”
“Go down there?” Although Apas was confused, she still stuck close to Bai Jue. From what he said, he had been under the magma before, but what would be under the magma?
Bai Jue held Apas and dived into the magma. The chaos magic prevented these things from causing any harm to them, and the dimension isolated the magma from the temperature.
Crossing the magma, they fell into a layer of turbid and thick air. Going down again, they came to a melt cave composed entirely of rugged rocks with extremely high melting points. The rocks had obviously been tempered by fire for countless years and were about to turn into rock crystals. This made the melt cave below look more like an underground world composed of dark brown irregular crystal blocks.
Walking inside, the heavy aura around gradually faded away. This rugged and winding brown crystal cave world, like a maze, was unimaginably large. Almost every fifty or sixty meters, one could see indistinguishable forks in the road, some narrow, some spacious, and some leading in all directions, but they were all within Bai Jue’s perception.
Most of the Kunlun Mountains are formed from four different soil and rock materials. Among them, orange soil rock has the lowest melting point, followed by Kunlun brown rock, then black iron rock, and finally bluestone.
The further you go down, the brown crystal rocks have completely disappeared, and even the black crystal rocks are gone. All around are cyan rock masses, which show a somewhat noble appearance under the light of the fire, like a building that belongs to a king alone. palace.
A beam of scorching white fire hung like a curtain at the end of the road ahead of Bai Jue. From a distance, it looked no different from a piece of silk cloth, so pure that it did not contain any impurities.
There are countless small tunnels on the surrounding walls, and the high-temperature fires that are scattered everywhere finally converge here through different paths, just like countless streams pouring into an abyss.
Said to be a fire curtain, this hot white lava is actually more like an abyss fire waterfall. It leads from the cyan crystal rock ground at the feet to the top of the blue cave dome. The magnificent and incomparable hot white lava keeps rushing upwards. A reverse flow was formed, but there was no spark or tongue of fire surging outward.
Most flames are restless. Where the flames are dense, there are sparks, tongues of fire, tooth-like flames, and a little bit of molten star foam can easily burn into pieces in the air, but this kind of white molten lava is completely As stable as water, flowing quietly, quietly guarding something…
“This fire curtain is quite strong. I feel like it can threaten my life.” Apas held Bai Jue’s hand. Although she was protecting him, she could still sense the danger.
“Unless you stand still under this curtain of fire, there will be no threat to your life here.” Bai Jue stretched out his hand towards the curtain of fire. The flame that could burn most monarch creatures to death within a period of time was as docile as a house cat and separated by itself.
“Have we entered another dimension?” As the two passed through the fire curtain, Apas felt the change in the space.
“Well, this is the location of a relic, and it is also one of the ‘dimensional intersections’, or ‘space station’, of our magical plane.”
Apas followed Bai Jue deeper into the cave. The small world inside was very empty. If it weren’t for the orange fire cloud in the sky that looked very low, it would make people feel like they were walking on an empty flat land of gray rocks.
Occasionally, you can see some small flat stones, which are natural talc as smooth as jade. If you get close, they can even reflect a person’s face. On the front and back, a certain kind of red fire pigment is engraved on them. Very beautiful and elegant floral print.
Not long after walking forward, a green field and a sea of flowers, a scene like an oil painting suddenly appeared before her.
At the end of the sea of flowers and greenery, there is a small town. The paint is very bright, and it does not feel old-fashioned. It is located in such a place of oil painting, like a fantasy wonderland.
Walking into this out-of-this-world city, the whole town is filled with the special fragrance of flowers and plants, without any sense of decay. It seems that this independent space is still in the original era.
The entire town is very well-preserved, as if it is stuck in a certain time and space, no longer passing by. The streets are spotlessly clean, and the houses have not been damaged by the years. It is completely like stepping into a beautiful and beautiful foreign town, except for one person. outside. Everything is peaceful.
Passing through the spacious street, a very beautiful fountain appeared at the intersection ahead. There is a beautiful and graceful female sculpture on the fountain. Her snake-shaped waist and delicate and smooth belly are particularly eye-catching.
“It feels like people have always lived here. It doesn’t look like a ruin at all!” Apas was surprised.
“This is the convergence point of all spatial axes. Theoretically, the passage of time will naturally be accompanied by some slight spatial changes. However, there will not be any spatial changes here. In other words, time stands still here.” Bai Jue said.
“Time stands still…but for us?” It’s not that Apas doesn’t believe Bai Jue’s theory, but the facts have already ruled out this possibility. The fact that they can act and communicate here is the biggest paradox of this theory.
“So this is just in theory. In reality, everything is moving, and so is the spatial axis. Therefore, the location of the entrance and exit of the space station are all changing dynamically. The reason why this place has been inconvenient for a long time is because there used to be an ‘anchor point’ here.”
Bai Jue stretched out his hand and moved the space. At this moment, the abstract spatial axes became concrete in Apas’ eyes. They were arranged in an orderly manner, and the messy “chess game” became clear.
“I took away the ‘anchor point’ here before. It won’t be long before the ‘space station’ here starts to drift. The destination will be unpredictable, and the dimension where this town is located will also be lost from the magic plane.”
“So, big brother, you want to protect this town without returning the ‘anchor point’?” Apas seemed to understand what Bai Jue was doing…
“No, I am planning to speed up the decline of the town. I will use the marks left in this dimensional space to explore the dimensions that were once lost from the magic plane, and use these dimensions as a starting point to explore the world outside the magic plane…”
“Hiss…” Bai Jue’s hand that was moving the space suddenly paused. His luck seemed to be good recently. He found a lost land before he did much!
Then go and have a look!
………………
The golden morning light gradually dyed the eastern sky red. The wind blew softly, dispersing the misty fog, and there were no more obstacles.
It was empty and silent. Countless pale silver crystals reflected colorful light in the sun. It was gorgeous but too dazzling, making people feel irritated.
There were many dark shadows beneath the light silver crystals, blocking the sunlight and making it difficult to see clearly, giving people an eerie feeling.
An illusory magic circle appeared out of thin air, as if it was engraved in the void, forming a door, and Bai Jue walked out with Apas.
The surrounding situation is not quite what Bai Jue expected. This place does not seem like an artificial dimension, but more like a “natural” world!
Bai Jue and Apas looked around and suddenly looked down at their feet. The crystal layer was transparent and clear. They had the illusion of standing thousands of feet in the sky, as if the world was empty. The mysterious and huge monster stared at them silently, and under the monster’s feet were waves of “black ants”… Those “black ants” were people wearing black armor!
“Lion’s head, deer horns, tiger’s eyes, elk’s body, dragon’s scales, ox’s tail…is this a Qilin?” Apas looked at the mysterious and huge monster under her feet and couldn’t help but recall the knowledge that Bai Jue had asked her to learn before.
“Its strength when alive was not greater than that of an emperor. At most, it was a descendant, and its bloodline was not very high… These silver crystals are filled with rich spatial power. This descendant of the Qilin and these black-armored soldiers were solidified in an instant, like a bug in amber…”
Bai Jue stretched out his hand and pressed on the crystal, feeling it carefully. He had just come to this lost land and encountered such a big ‘surprise’. He was looking forward to what would happen next!
“Brother, I feel like something is absorbing my spirit, but I can’t find the target!” Apas said solemnly. She lit up her golden snake pupils without knowing when. It was the first time she encountered such a situation.
Although the speed of absorption is not as fast as her natural recovery, it is indeed happening, and as time goes by, the speed of absorption is getting faster and faster!
Upon hearing this, Bai Jue touched Apas’ forehead with his index finger, and his thoughts poured out. He patrolled and checked everywhere, and found that the source of absorbing spiritual power was hidden in the void!
“Swish!” Bai Jue stretched out his hand into the void and grabbed an illusory little beast, imprisoning it in his palm and letting it wreak havoc.
“Is this… an aggregation of resentful souls?” Bai Jue was surprised. From the looks of it, the creatures that were trapped here were unwilling to give in. Their residual souls and obsessions gradually gathered together to form this little thing.
Bai Jue exerted a little force, and the little beast exploded and disintegrated, then disappeared, and Apas’s spirit was no longer absorbed.
“There should be a lot of strange things here. If you feel something is wrong, tell me in advance.”
Bai Jue held Apas’s hand and walked straight to the edge of the crystal. It was like a cliff, with clouds and mist in front, making it difficult to see clearly.
“There are people in this direction. Let’s go this way and get to know the situation here first.”
Bai Jue took Apas’s hand and jumped directly down, with the sound of wind whistling in his ears. If he had known this place was so big, he would have brought the Saker Falcon God in with him!
Suddenly, monsters that looked like bats appeared on the crystal cliff. They approached them in groups, and their noisy and hoarse cries were annoying.
Commander level? Before Bai Jue could make a move, Apas raised her eyes, her golden pupils flashed, and all the monsters that surrounded her were petrified and fell to the ground instantly!
……
My name is Zhang San, a fugitive. I was afraid of being caught, so I hid in the outskirts of the forbidden area. It’s a good place with vast area and few people.
When the turmoil outside is over, hey, I will come out again to tease them. Looking at the constipated expressions of the constipated officials, I will feel inexplicably happy.
It’s just that eating grass all day is too hard. I almost feel like the bird is gone from my mouth. It would be great if I could have some meat…
“Peng!”
“Oh my god!” Zhang San was startled by the sudden loud noise. He looked carefully and saw… the corpse of some unknown bird. It looked delicious and was bigger than both of him.
Could it be that the gods have shown their power? I never thought that I, Zhang San, would end up like this!
“Oh my God, I haven’t seen a living person in this godforsaken place for a long time…”
Before Zhang San could finish his words, two people fell from the sky, a man and a woman. With his limited vocabulary, he could only describe them as nice.
Did they come from the forbidden area? Zhang San’s face looked a little unnatural. Although he was arrogant, he still had the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. The woman gave him a very dangerous feeling. Although the man didn’t feel anything, he knew it was not simple just by thinking with his heels.
“You two…” Zhang San didn’t know how to address the two people, so he simply didn’t say anything and stepped back: “I’m just passing by, and I don’t mean to disturb you.”
They can communicate in the language of Kyushu. Their clothes look like those of ancient times. If we only judge their strength by their aura, they are not at a high level. We don’t know if the strength system of this lost land is magic or not…
“Brother, wait a moment.” Bai Jue spoke, but this made Zhang San’s pace faster, and he even ran. As a result, he bumped into a rock and fainted. Finally, he was carried over by the power of the dimension.
“Then just get the information this way.” Bai Jue explored Zhang San’s memory. He originally wanted to be kind to him and give him some compensation later, but this guy didn’t deserve to be treated like that. He killed people, robbed goods, bullied the weak, and was a fugitive!
……
The thick clouds were like a land stretching across the sky, welcoming its first guest from the non-physical continent.
Bai Jue and Apas walking on it is a fantasy and a myth for ordinary people.
Looking down from above, everything seems very small. Going up a little further, you will reach above the clouds. The air and the sunlight are all hazy. White waves rise and fall with the wind. It is just like a fairyland.
The white waves were advancing, and even if the two stopped, they would still move forward on their own. There was a city not far below.
“Is this the city in this world? It’s pretty good!” Apas exclaimed as he looked at the vast city wall.
The walls are covered with moss, which are the traces of time. The whole building is built with flat bricks, and the traces left by the war give people a sense of antiquity and vicissitudes.
This is the nearest city in Zhang San’s memory. As for him… he was crushed to death like a dragon and his bones were turned into ashes. He returned directly to nature and nourished all things!
You have done all kinds of bad things and have been punished for all kinds of evil. You deserve it.
