Back in the Endless World, the seven pieces of the debris of the stars that contained the basic Laws of the world had already formed a relatively complete World Domain without anyone's interference. The World Domain was the ultimate Magical Domain that almost all mages dreamed of. However, he was a Hunter back then, so he made a reckless choice to collect the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, causing the embryonic World Domain to collapse.
Now, the natural water and fire Magical Domain in front of him gave Lin Li the hope of recreating that World Domain. By then, even if a mortal were to master the Eternal Furnace, he would probably be able to contend with the deities.
Great power, unlimited possibilities, this was a fatal temptation that no one could refuse. Lin Li was no exception. His desire for power was no less than that of others. In particular, he had learned from Tutankhamun that there would be a world-ending disaster in Anril in two to three years. Even if it was for his own sake, he had to think of ways to make himself stronger as soon as possible.
Reaching the Sanctuary-realm in two to three years seemed like an impossible task to others, especially when Lin Li had just reached the Legendary-realm. Even a powerhouse at the peak of the Legendary-realm would not dare to say for sure how long it would take for him to reach the Sanctuary-realm.
In fact, even Lin Li himself did not have much confidence. The Sanctuary-realm was not something that could be achieved just by talking about it. Hard work would not be of much use once one reached the Legendary-realm. Talent and luck were indispensable conditions to reach the Sanctuary-realm. Lin Li still remembered a powerhouse saying that success was 99% perspiration and 1% talent. However, to reach the Sanctuary-realm, it should be said that 1% perspiration and 99% talent and luck were needed.
Moreover, reaching the Sanctuary-realm was just the most basic goal. Tutankhamun had said that he had to reach the Sanctuary-realm within two to three years. Actually, even without Tutankhamun's explanation, Lin Li knew very well that the stronger he was, the more confident he would be in protecting himself during the impending disaster.
Lin Li still remembered the shocking battle between the God of Mages Geresco and the Evil Eye Tyrant that he had seen through the Spacetime Beacon Spell in Tutankhamun's wooden hut. At that time, Geresco was no longer someone who had just broken through to the Sanctuary-realm. Even then, it was not easy for him to deal with the Evil Eye Tyrant. This time, the scale of the disaster that Lin Li was about to face was definitely much larger than that of Geresco's. God knew how many perverted fellows would come through the spacetime rift. At that time, with his mere strength of a beginner Sanctuary-realm, the only thing he could do was to escape.
Hence, to Lin Li, the advancement of his own realm was the top priority, and obtaining powerful external help was also indispensable. Hence, how could Connoris' crazy idea not make his heart palpitate?
According to Connoris, it was indeed a great design to integrate this natural Magical Domain into the Eternal Furnace. However, Lin Li also knew that all of this was just in his imagination, and he still had a long way to go in order to make this design a reality and complete the Sky Castle that could contend with the gods.
The first thing that needed to be solved urgently was the problem of a wyrm magical crystal. Besides, it was not an ordinary wyrm magical crystal.
During the fusion, the Engulfment of the Darkness Domain was equivalent to adding an additional layer of insurance to the natural Magical Domain, reducing the risk of it collapsing due to external influences when it was fused with the Eternal Furnace. However, that did not mean that the natural Magical Domain could be treated as a dough that could be kneaded without worrying about collapsing.
Without the Engulfment of the Darkness Domain, Lin Li would need to find an ice wyrm magical crystal that had exactly the same energy as the wyrm magical crystal at the core of the Eternal Furnace. Only then would he be able to ensure that the natural Magical Domain of water and fire would not collapse.
There was a saying that there were no two leaves that were exactly the same in the world. Even among the countless leaves, it was impossible to find two that were exactly the same, let alone wyrm magical crystals, which were rare in the first place. A slight difference in energy between two wyrm magical crystals would directly lead to the collapse of the natural Magical Domain.
After using the Engulfment ability of the Darkness Domain, the conditions for the natural Magical Domain would not be as harsh. However, if Lin Li were to use a random magical crystal of a water-type Legendary magical beast, the natural Magical Domain would definitely collapse. It did not have to be exactly the same, but it did not mean that there could be a huge difference. Lin Li still needed a wyrm magical crystal of equivalent energy.
According to Connoris, the wyrm magical crystal in the Eternal Furnace was obtained by Osric after he used the power of the entire Magic Legion to kill an ancient wyrm that was entrenched in the Fire Plume Ridge.
Ancient wyrms were not to be trifled with. Each one of them was an existence above level-25. Even Osric, an iconic figure of this era, had to rely on the sacrifice of the entire Magic Legion to finally kill that ancient wyrm. No matter how one looked at it, Lin Li seemed to be incomparable to it now.
At the thought of the Crimson Dragon that was chained in the magma, Lin Li could not help but feel a little fearful. An ordinary fire wyrm that had its wings pierced by chains and could not fly, and its range of movement was also extremely limited. It had been suppressed by the magic gears in the underground palace for thousands of years, and had long lost the power it had in its heyday. Yet, it still forced Lin Li into a pathetic state. This was just an ordinary fire wyrm. What would happen if it was an ancient ice wyrm that was above level-25?
Kill an ancient ice wyrm that was above level-25! Even with Lin Li's courage, he could not help but shiver at the thought of this terrifying mission. Not to mention that he could not compare to Osric now, even if his personal strength reached Osric's level, where could he find an elite Magic Legion?
In terms of magic, the High Elves had a natural advantage over humans. The High Elves' Magic Legion, especially Osric's elite Magic Legion, was not something that the human mages could compare to. Compared to Osric's elite Magic Legion, Lin Li's mages from the Tower of Dusk were simply not enough. Relying on such a group of people to kill an ancient ice wyrm was just like improving the diet of the ancient ice wyrm without asking for anything in return.
The magical crystal of the ancient ice wyrm was a seemingly unsolvable problem in front of Lin Li, but it was not the only problem. There was another problem, and that was the problem of transplanting the Throne of Darkness into the Eternal Furnace. Although Connoris did not mention the specific details, Lin Li could guess that the process of transplanting would definitely be extremely troublesome.
The Throne of Darkness was a Magical Domain left behind by the Dragon of Destruction, Azardas. If it could be easily manipulated by others, the Dragon of Destruction would not have been killed by the Immortal King. It would have been killed by the Titans wielding the dragon spears hundreds of times during the prehistoric times.
Lin Li let out a long sigh, and looked at the natural Magical Domain in front of him. He shook his head slightly helplessly. How could everything in this world go according to one's will? It was not that there was no such thing as reaping without sowing, but no one could reap everything without sowing. He was very lucky to be able to transmigrate to this world. It could be said that his luck was extremely good. However, luck was not everything, and many things still had to depend on one's own hard work.
Without a doubt, this natural Magical Domain was a real treasure. It was even more precious than the Eternal Furnace itself. If a comparison had to be made, perhaps only the Book of Eternity in Lin Li's hands or the magical crystal of the Evil Eye Tyrant could be compared to this natural Magical Domain.
However, it was still rather troublesome for Lin Li to take possession of this treasure with his current abilities. Obtaining the magical crystal of the ancient ice wyrm and transplanting the Throne of Darkness were each more troublesome and difficult than the previous. Any one of them was enough to make an ordinary person feel hopeless.
However, Lin Li was not too worried. In his opinion, as long as one was willing to do it, there would be a day when one would succeed. The Immortal King could even kill the Dragon of Destruction, Azardas, so it was not impossible for him to kill an ancient ice wyrm in the future.
The only thing that made Lin Li feel a little regretful was that Polar Snow and Raging Flames had to be left here for a period of time. When would he be able to integrate this natural Magical Domain with the Eternal Furnace, and when would he be able to take Polar Snow and Raging Flames for his own use? Otherwise, once the two pieces of the debris of the stars were taken away, this natural Magical Domain would collapse and dissipate in no time.
"Seems like we can only leave now," Lin Li said helplessly.
"But … Don't, don't!" Connoris snapped out of his crazy thoughts. He also knew that what he said was just a thought. With Lin Li's current situation, it was impossible for him to do it. He hesitated for a moment, and said, "I think … Why don't we take the two magical weapons and leave? If someone barges in here, I'm afraid there won't be anything left for you, not to mention the natural Magical Domain."
In the face of such powerful magical weapons like Polar Snow and Raging Flames, even Connoris, who was once an ancient deity, could not remain calm, especially when he heard that Lin Li wanted to leave the two magical weapons here. How could he not know how precious the natural Magical Domain was? However, if Lin Li could not take it for his own use, it would naturally be more in Lin Li's interest to destroy it.
"Since you can find this place, there's no guarantee that others won't find this place. If it was in the past, the magic gears would continue to help you protect these two magical weapons. But now, you've killed the Crimson Dragon and destroyed the power core of the magic gears. The magic gears in the entire underground palace have lost their function. If you leave these two magical weapons here, it would be equivalent to doing everything for others. Nothing can stop them from taking away what originally belongs to you, "Connoris advised anxiously.
"Hehe, don't worry. I'm not that selfless. Have you forgotten my abilities?" Lin Li did not change his mind because of Connoris' advice. Instead, he smiled confidently.
Lin Li was not a simple mage. Not to mention the mageweath Alchemy Array, he was also at the Master-level in terms of the magic gears. He didn't have the time to redesign the magic gears of an underground palace, but it wasn't difficult for him to modify the existing magic gears in the underground palace and restore some of their functions.
"But even so, what if someone …" Connoris was still worried. After all, the two magical weapons were too powerful. No one could resist their temptation.
"Firstly, no one might really be able to find this underground palace. Secondly, with my standard of magic gears, even if someone entered this underground palace, they might not be able to reach here smoothly. Thirdly, even if they found this place, I only have one Eternal Furnace. How are they going to collect this natural Magical Domain … "Lin Li replied casually. However, he was not speaking blindly. Be it Polar Snow or Raging Flames, even if they were placed here without doing anything, no one might be able to collect them.
Collecting the natural water and fire Magical Domain was extremely difficult, but collecting Polar Snow and Raging Flames was also something that would make others feel hopeless. Polar Snow and Raging Flames were the two extremely powerful pieces of the debris of the stars. Now that they were in this natural Magical Domain, the only way to collect them was to use absolute strength to suppress them without any special means. However, Polar Snow and Raging Flames contained the purest basic nomological power. In the whole of Anril, even a powerhouse of the Sanctuary-realm might not be able to do that.
Since he had decided to leave Polar Snow and Raging Flames here temporarily, Lin Li got Norfeller and Ujfalusi to do the construction work in order to protect the natural Magical Domain from external factors. They rebuilt the wall with the stones on the ground. The craftsmanship of the two Undead servants was not bad. It was a pity that there was no mortar. The stones were simply stacked together, and they were even more fragile than the original stone wall.
Lin Li looked at the two Undead servants who were busy working, and then at the stone wall that was put together. He regretfully said, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have blasted the wall open." At that time, he had never thought that there would be a miraculous existence hidden behind the wall. Moreover, it was an existence that he could not do anything about.
"Is there really no chance? Kid, you have to think about it carefully! Don't get nothing in the end, "Connoris nagged in Lin Li's mind, unable to put his mind at ease.
