Usually, the Astrology Ceremony would be located on the top floor of the Wizard's Pagoda.

Standing on the top floor of the Tower of Destiny and looking out into the distance, there would be no visual obstruction at all. That was because the walls of the tower would become completely transparent after the Astrology Ceremony began. Whenever night fell and the stars shone brightly, the place would seem exceptionally quiet and profound, as if the stargazer was embedded into the endless starry sky.

There were no magical facilities or stargazing tools in the vast space of nearly a thousand square meters. There were only complicated and precise rune lines, Magic Power Hubs, and star symbols densely covering the walls, floor, and sky of the huge space …

In the eyes of many quack prophets, Astrology had always been the most accurate and effective Wizard Spell among all kinds of divination spells. However, because the Astrology Ceremony required the cooperation of the Astrology Platform and a set of fixed Astrology procedures, the consumption of resources was relatively large. Therefore, unless it was necessary, no one was willing to use the Astrology Ceremony. Instead, they preferred simpler methods such as tortoise shells and tarot cards.

In general, Astrology was more similar to drawing a map of the long river of fate.

Although it was only a short section, there were no omissions and no confusion.

It could tell the prophet where the potential was, where the problem was, and the general path to the future … But how to choose, the prophet had to make a wise decision.

Methods such as tarot cards could only help the prophet to peek at a certain scene or scene in the future, allowing him to understand the good or bad luck of a certain moment. Due to the lack of the cause and subsequent changes of the matter, it was easy to misinterpret the future and go the opposite way of fate.

Therefore, in order to have a more comprehensive understanding of everything that happened in the Dark Witch Camp, and to avoid her rash actions affecting Grandmother Endor, Alice naturally chose Astrology.

After a quarter of an hour, Alice, who had already taken a bath and changed her clothes, walked into the Astrology Platform with bursts of fragrant wind.

Alice silently stood under the circular dome, which was also the core of the huge and complicated Wizard Spell on the floor. As she clasped her palms together in front of her chest, the mysterious spell formation with her at the center immediately emitted an azure light that quickly infected the entire hall.

To clear her mind, Alice first completed a short meditation, embedding her mind into the deep and vast starry sky. In the distant sky, a few of the brightest main stars suddenly flickered and sent back traces of responses. Thin but pure star power passed through the almost non-existent dome and slowly entered her body.

The magic circle under Alice's feet slowly rose, and the blue light almost turned the whole Astrology Hall into a huge sapphire. And Alice was immersed in this blue ocean, borrowing the power of the Stag Constellation's main star, her thoughts followed the guidance of the power of the blood meridians in her body, and extended endlessly to a place in the distant horizon.

It was as if her soul had suddenly broken free from the shackles of her physical body. Alice felt so relaxed and unrestrained at this moment. Her soul was suddenly free from all restraints, and she was wrapped up by the power of the stars. Following the guidance of the power of her bloodline, she blankly crossed the endless sea of stars, and suddenly arrived at a mysterious place...



Neo Valley.

East of the Khali River, near Mount Relion.

In a secluded valley surrounded by mountains, a tall black Sorcerer Tower stood silently.

In the entire Sorcerer Continent, this was the only pure black Sorcerer Tower!

Even though its appearance was not special, it was eerily floating in a layer of blurry shadows. Even on a clear day, standing in the valley, one would only see the tower in black and white, and its shape was distorted and strange.

It was as if this black tower did not stand in the Wizard World, but was a projection left here by an unknown tower in the Shadow Plane.

As for the creatures and plants in the valley, they were even more gray and lifeless. You could not see any vivid colors of life on them, only black and white, and the overwhelming gray shadows.

And this was the Dark Witch's Tower of Origin — the Black Secret Realm.

Alice's mind was wrapped up by the power of the stars, and like a meteor, she crashed into the Black Secret Realm and suddenly appeared in a prison on the third underground level of the Wizard's Pagoda.

Although it was called a prison, it was actually a stone room about three square meters in size.

Countless chains covered in runes passed through the walls, firmly locking a hunchbacked, old witch in the middle of the stone room. A dim old oil lamp was placed on a wooden shelf on the stone wall covered in moss. Not only did the weak flame the size of a soybean not illuminate the stone room, but it also filled the room with flickering shadows.

In this strange Dark Tower, be it the glow of the runes or the color of the flames, they were all gray, a gray so dense that it made one's heart palpitate!

'Alice' opened her eyes and looked at this gray world. She looked at the familiar figure who was locked in place. She could not help but reach out her trembling hands to hold Poison Centipede Endor's skinny face. The rage in her heart could not be suppressed.

Perhaps it had sensed the abnormal ripples that should not have appeared here, the oil lamp on the wooden shelf on the stone wall suddenly burst into sparks.

In the next second, two strange black shadows emerged from the shadows of the stone room.

The black shadows wriggled, and the smoke-like dark matter pieced together to form the appearance of two Shadow Witches.

Their entire bodies were hidden in the thick darkness, and they could only roughly distinguish their outlines through the slight color difference. Their faces seemed to be covered with a thick layer of black gauze, blurry, and it was impossible to see their faces clearly.

"What's going on?" The leading Dark Witch carefully examined the entire stone room, but did not find anything unusual. "Why would there suddenly be a strange soul aura here? Did someone really sneak in just now? "

"I think you're just being paranoid!" Another Dark Witch said indifferently, "Maybe something happened in the Shadow Kingdom, and that's why we're here. Now is the time when the Dark Pocket Realm and the Shadow Kingdom overlap, so it's normal for some problems to occur. "

"It's better to be careful! Leader Circe personally ordered Endor to be arrested. Although I don't know what she did, a Rank 1 Witch was personally ordered by the leader, and she was to be imprisoned in the Dark Pocket Realm. We can't be careless! "

"Alright, alright! I'll inform the sisters in the Shadow Kingdom and see if there's anything unusual there. That way, it'll be easy to find out which side is the problem! "

"Alright, go! I'll keep watch here, just in case someone sneaks in. "

After saying that, the body of one of the Dark Witches suddenly dissolved, and her aura mysteriously disappeared from the stone room.

Circe?

It was a direct order from Leader Circe!

Alice, who had rewrapped her spiritual consciousness, was like a specter without a physical body, floating in the stone room, silently watching everything that was happening in front of her. When her spiritual consciousness was calm and completely retracted into the starlight, even if she crashed into the body of the Dark Witch and had intimate contact with her in all aspects, the Dark Witch would not feel it at all.

When the word 'Circe', which was soaked with the bizarre power of destiny, flashed across Alice's mind, her body abruptly shuddered. She was pulled by a force into the black tower, and in the next instant, she abruptly floated in a mysterious and bizarre secret chamber.

This was a classic Witchcraft Altar!

On top of the gray stone platform stood a tall black figure and a strange mirror in the shape of a flame.

In the dim luster, indistinct fine lines could be seen from the smooth surface of the mirror, forming a grand and complicated Witchcraft Formation. This was not the common Five Lights or Six Lights type of Witchcraft Formation, but a variety of complicated patterns and runes intertwined and connected with each other, using the complicated light dots to form a ring-shaped Witchcraft Formation, supporting the dark shadow in the center of the Witchcraft Formation.

That dark shadow hovered and lingered in the Witchcraft Formation as if it was a living creature, gathering into a huge prismatic crystal. The crystal was blood red, and there was a purple stripe in the center. Under the flow of light, this dark shadow was like the eye of a giant beast in the void, silently scanning everything around it.

And when Alice suddenly appeared, it was the moment when the tall black figure on the altar was silently communicating with the eye of the giant beast!

The tall figure was shrouded in black shadows, and there were dazzling black spots wriggling and twisting, making it impossible to see the appearance of the figure. However, the figure was rather slender, and seemed to be a woman. And when Alice's line of sight focused on her, a pair of eyes as bright as searchlights immediately followed the trail and shot over. What followed was a roar that shook the entire world.

"Who? Who's there? "

Alice leaned back, and her head felt as if it had been hit by someone. Blood flowed out of her eyes, ears, mouth, and nose at the same time. Her spiritual consciousness let out a buzzing sound, and the image in front of her instantly shattered.

At that moment, Alice felt as if she had suddenly crashed into a tall wall while running at top speed. Her entire spiritual consciousness was numb, and she could not control it. And what was even more terrifying was that the layer of starlight wrapped around her spiritual consciousness was disappearing at the speed of deflagration.

In the next moment, the scene in front of her started to rapidly rewind, and everything around her connected into a mottled color block and line that could not be distinguished. Her entire vision started to spin crazily, making her feel dizzy and nauseous.

A distant familiar voice was faintly calling out to her …

Alice suddenly sat up from the floor, and her unfocused eyes started to focus bit by bit.

"Alright, alright, you've finally woken up …" The voice of the magic elf Helen rang in her ears. "What did you see through the astrology ceremony? Why did you suddenly collapse? "

Alice wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and held her head that was aching from the extreme consumption of her spiritual power. She forced a smile at Helen.

"I'm fine! The astrology this time was very successful! "

"Successful? Then why did you still suffer from the backlash? "The elf was obviously very confused.

"Because I overestimated myself and participated in the conspiracy of some high-level experts!"

"How high-level?"

"At least as high as Grade 4!"

"Ha …"

After sending away the curious elf, Alice stood up shakily with her hands on her head, and walked step by step towards the entrance of the astrology hall with difficulty.

When she was near the entrance, she suddenly turned around and silently scanned the blue light that had not yet dissipated.
