Due to the fact that there were no traps in the way, Lin Li quickly brought the members of the expedition to tour the Sky Castle. Of course, as the tour went on, Archbishop Martin, Donald, and the others also became envious and jealous. In the end, they could only look numb. On the other hand, the people of the Tower of Dusk were all extremely excited. They simply could not imagine how high the status of the Tower of Dusk would reach in Anril with such a Sky Castle.
After touring the Sky Castle, they arrived in front of a Teleportation Portal. Archbishop Martin and Donald were already ready to leave, but Lin Li did not immediately respond to them. Instead, he seemed to be deep in thought.
It turned out that while Lin Li was bringing them around, he had also been scanning the entire Sky Castle with his mental strength to explore some places that could not be seen from the outside. However, just now, Lin Li suddenly discovered that his mental strength was blocked by a force somewhere in the Sky Castle.
Lin Li was now the master of the Sky Castle, and the Sky Castle should not have any secrets to him at all. However, the place where his mental strength was blocked actually did not respect Lin Li, the owner. Clearly, that force had a higher authority than him.
Lin Li obtained control of the Sky Castle through the control crystal. If there was anyone who had a higher authority than him, it would probably be the Immortal King who had built the Sky Castle. That made him feel extremely nervous. Although he had always been able to tell through various signs that the Immortal King had some unknown connection with him, no one could tell if that connection was good or bad.
Although Lin Li had indirectly interacted with the Immortal King several times, he still had not figured out what kind of attitude the Immortal King had towards him. Did he treat him as an heir, a pawn, or just a toy when he was bored?
Lin Li did not obtain the Sky Castle for the sake of a place for himself and the people of the Tower of Dusk to stay. Instead, he hoped that the powerful war weapon would be of great help when he sealed the spacetime rift in the future. Hence, it was not a good thing for him to allow something that he could not control to exist. It was like a time bomb that God knew when it would blow him up into pieces.
After snapping back to his senses, Lin Li said to Archbishop Martin and the others apologetically, "I'm sorry, I just discovered a place that needs to be explored. I won't be seeing you guys off."
Archbishop Martin initially wanted to talk to Lin Li about going to the Brilliance Shrine as a guest, but after hearing Lin Li's words, he suddenly had a brainwave, and said, "Master Felic, you're being too polite. I wonder if there's anything you need us for. If you don't mind us getting in the way, why don't we accompany you to explore?"
Archbishop Martin's thoughts were simple, and he wanted to seize every opportunity to get closer to Lin Li. Even if he would have to pay a price for it, it would be worth it compared to the benefits he could obtain from Lin Li.
Upon hearing Archbishop Martin's words, Donald immediately interjected before Lin Li could answer. "Yes, Master Felic, it's all thanks to you for taking care of us during the exploration of the Sky Castle this time. If there's anything you need us to do, feel free to let us know."
Donald did not expect to get anything from Lin Li, and he only hoped that Lin Li would not be calculative about the previous conflicts and let the Sky Castle suddenly descend upon the capital of the Rotterdam Kingdom.
There are actually people who are fighting to be cannon fodder? Lin Li was slightly stunned for a moment, but seeing that Archbishop Martin and Donald were so sincere, he couldn't reject them too much. Hence, he nodded, and said, "Okay, let's go and take a look then."
Lin Li brought the people of the two forces who were about to leave back to the center of the Sky Castle again. However, after carefully probing with his mental strength, he discovered that the place that blocked his mental strength was not inside the Sky Castle, but at the bottom of the Sky Castle. Besides, there was no prepared path inside the Sky Castle that could lead to that mysterious place.
Now, there was a problem. There was an endless void outside the Sky Castle, and Nether Storms were constantly wreaking havoc outside the canopy. If one wanted to leave the protection of the canopy and head to the bottom of the Sky Castle, they would have to take a huge risk. Not to mention ordinary people, even Lin Li, a true Sanctuary powerhouse, could not stay in the endless void for too long. If he really encountered a Nether Storm, he would be in danger of dying.
Although Lin Li was wearing a Space Robe that allowed him to carry out short-distance teleportation, he dared not use it recklessly in the void. Unless he had the strength of the Immortal King, he might accidentally flash into the Nether Storm. That would be courting death.
Hearing this situation, Archbishop Martin, Donald, and the others were put in a difficult position. They were all powerhouses who were at the peak of the Legendary realm, but they were no different from ants in the face of the Nether Storm. Even without the Nether Storm, they could only stay in the void for a few seconds at most. Every second meant great danger.
"Well, why would the High Elves build a building underground? Besides, there's no passage that can lead there." Archbishop Martin was a little regretful. He had taken the initiative to help, but he did not expect to encounter such an outcome. He might even lose his life.
Donald was just saying nice words in the first place, and did not intend to put in much effort at all. Most importantly, he just wanted to see if there were any hidden treasures. Now that he heard that they actually had to pass through the endless void in order to enter that place, he immediately felt like retreating.
However, it would be fine if he did not say that he wanted to help previously, but now that he had said that he would help, he would really be offending someone. Donald was in a dilemma for a while before saying, "Master Felic, since that building was built at the bottom of the Sky Castle, I'm afraid it doesn't have any important function. Why don't we drive the Sky Castle into Anril, and then go check it out?"
Although Donald was making excuses, what he said was not without reason. They were now surrounded by endless void, and it would naturally be very dangerous to go to the bottom of the Sky Castle. However, if the Sky Castle was driven back to Anril, there would be no need to worry about the Nether Storm. Perhaps even ordinary Archmages would be able to fly over to investigate with the Levitation Spell.
However, Lin Li had more considerations. Although he would indeed not have to worry about the Nether Storm if he drove the Sky Castle back to Anril, Lin Li couldn't help but worry about what was hidden in that place. However, Lin Li couldn't help but worry about what was hidden in that place. If he were to bring another existence like Osric to Anril, wouldn't it be a disaster for Anril?
Of course, Lin Li was not a philanthropic person, and he wouldn't care about the life and death of those who had nothing to do with him. However, if the existence hidden there affected his control over the Sky Castle, wouldn't his efforts be in vain when he brought it back to Anril?
Hence, even though there were countless dangers hidden in the endless void outside, Lin Li still hoped that he could get rid of the unstable factor there. If it was really beyond his ability, and he could not get rid of the unstable factor at all, he would rather give up on the Sky Castle than be blown to pieces in the future.
"Gentlemen, I didn't expect it to be so dangerous there. Your teams have already suffered a lot of losses during the exploration here. Why don't you go back? I'll think of a solution myself," Lin Li said to Archbishop Martin and Donald.
Although Lin Li said that, the others did not dare to take it seriously. God knew if they would be targeted if they took it seriously. Hence, Archbishop Martin and Donald, who were a little hesitant at first, immediately said sternly, "Master Felic, you're wrong to say that. We were able to find what we were looking for because you took care of us along the way. Now that you have something to do, how can we leave just like that? "
Lin Li secretly smiled, and after saying a few polite words, he focused his attention on how to go down. The simplest method would be to walk to the edge of the Sky Castle and jump down. However, this simple method meant that they would face the greatest risk. Even with Lin Li's current strength, he could not bring others down in the endless void. Even if he encountered the Nether Storm alone, he would be doomed.
Lin Li used his mental strength to carefully explore the interior of the Sky Castle several times, and finally chose a path. Although the path would not lead them directly to the bottom of the Sky Castle, it was the closest place to the bottom. As long as they got out from there, they would only have to stay in the endless void for a few seconds to reach the bottom.
Of course, even then, it did not mean that there was no risk at all. Even if they were lucky and did not pass by the Nether Storm, that environment was not something that ordinary Legendary powerhouses could stay in for long. If they took this path, the people who could really go down would probably have to be at least at the peak of the Legendary-realm, and they would also have to be protected by Lin Li.
However, Archbishop Martin and Donald did not have any objections to this method. The two forces had already suffered huge losses, and it would naturally be best if their subordinates did not have to take any more risks. They took the initiative to stay because they wanted to leave a good impression on Lin Li, and not because they really wanted to lose their subordinates.
Similarly, it was naturally impossible for everyone from the Tower of Dusk to go down. Hence, Lin Li chose Connoris, Ujfalusi, and Norfeller, the two Undead servants. Of course, the power that Lin Li could bring was not limited to the three of them. For example, the tender Elemental Wyrm Xiao Hua in the Dream Garden, as well as the Lord of Nightmares and the Lord Devourer, Garl, who had been kept in the Summoning Lamp. The hidden power was not weaker than the three on the surface, and Lin Li did not have to divert his attention to protect them.
