It had to be said that a mage's mission was sometimes like a game. Once a certain event was completed, there would be a certain reward.
Tang Shidao was more than happy to call this reward: the reward of hard work!
On the way back to Sky King's hometown, Sky King could no longer hold on and passed away. It died with a smile on its face. Perhaps it believed that Tang Shidao would keep his promise and send it back to Sky King's burial mound. Not long after, a school of giant fish appeared in the sky. They had a nearly transparent body like Sky King, but their appearances were different.
These Sky Kings did not greet each other. They just floated in front, leading Tang Shidao to Sky King's burial mound.
Finally.
When Sky King's body was placed in the burial mound, Tang Shidao also received a piece of Sky King's weightless bone. This was a small piece of its tail that one of the Sky Kings bit off and gave to Tang Shidao as a thank-you gift. It was difficult for outsiders to get a weightless bone, but Sky King himself could give it away. This was indeed similar to a game's mission.
Compared to Sky King's huge body, its' small piece 'was much bigger than Tang Shidao himself.
He received this giant bone.
Tang Shidao carefully cut out a piece that was about the size of a human body. He kept it first and was not in a hurry to submit it to the mission.
Obtaining the Yuanzu Tree Spear was his biggest help besides the Forbidden Spell. It was very likely that the Yuanzu Tree Spear was not inferior to the Forbidden Spell. In terms of combat power, it was stronger than him. The Yuanzu Tree Spear that changed according to the strength of one's magical power was really terrifying. It was basically invincible against people whose magical power was lower than his.
On the other hand.
The more powerful he was, the more powerful the Yuanzu Tree Spear was. As his strength increased, the Yuanzu Tree Spear directly 'doubled' its strength. This kind of combat power increase was simply like a rebirth. If it was not for the fact that he wanted to train his spear skills, he was confident that he could complete the mission of Astral Queen.
Ever since the battle with Leopard Fang.
Tang Shidao really wanted to settle down and hone his skills.
He felt that his improvement was too fast, and he felt like he was floating. The next time he encountered an opponent like Leopard Fang, Tang Shidao did not want to rely on a Forbidden Spell to turn the tables. Mages were people who controlled magic, not people who relied on magic. If even Prince Zhou was able to study it diligently, could it be that he was inferior to Prince Zhou?
When he returned to the Tang Empire, the Prophets came to congratulate him.
The weightless bones of the Empty King were useless, but to them, it was a supreme honor. That was because Tang Shidao had done something that was impossible for them. It was completely in line with their belief that Mages were omnipotent.
Tang Shidao did not say anything and accepted the congratulations calmly.
In the meantime.
He calmed down completely and silently studied Wizard Blackcloud's cave maze. Since there were too many maps in the cave maze, he did not have any clue at the moment.
Half a month later.
It was unexpected.
Ichijō King sent another gift: a stone slab with an unknown map drawn on it.
"Thank you." Tang Shidao expressed his gratitude and accepted it. He knew that this was a friendly gesture from the aerial kings. The Magical Beasts in the Land of Flowing Clouds were not fools. They all knew the power of Mages. It was not surprising that the aerial kings wanted to be a little friendly with him.
After checking the stone slab, Tang Shidao filled in the gaps in the information about the cave maze.
He figured out the key.
Tang Shidao immediately bid farewell to the Prophets and went to find other stone slabs. No one in the Tang Empire dared to stop the Mage's journey. They only asked Tang Shidao to come back and say goodbye before leaving. After receiving the map, Tang Shidao naturally agreed to this request, and then turned into an owl and flew to the first location recorded on the map.
Originally, exploring the cave maze was a very time-consuming thing.
However, Tang Shidao had a cheat in his hand.
He took out the Yuanzu Tree Spear and pierced it into the ground. Countless green lights drilled into the ground like roots. Quickly, the green light covered the ground like water and soon climbed all over the passage of the cave maze. Almost in less than three minutes, the entire cave maze had been filled with green light and tree roots, and everything hidden could be seen at a glance.
With such a cheat, Tang Shidao quickly found the second stone slab.
Next.
The third piece, the fourth piece, the fifth piece … After finding a full 100 pieces, Tang Shidao completed all the puzzle pieces. When all the stone slabs were gathered together, the content of the picture immediately changed into another scene. The magic energy in the stone slab generated a light and drilled into Tang Shidao's arm … This was the owner's authority of a Mage's Secret Room.
After obtaining the authority of the Mage's Secret Room, Tang Shidao immediately knew where the entrance was.
Flying at top speed.
After spending another half a month, Tang Shidao returned to the vicinity of the Tang Empire. The entrance was next to the forest where he fought with Leopard Fang. It seemed that Leopard Fang was also working hard in this direction.
The entrance was a waterfall.
Inside, Tang Size set foot on an endless desert.
In just a second, Tang Shidao received everything that the owner's authority should know in his mind: This was originally Heiyun's Mage's Secret Room. It was an enormous desert, more than 10,000 times larger than the secret rooms he knew. There were oases at intervals in this desert, which were deliberately embellished and cultivated. There were also countless towers in the desert, each of which towered into the clouds. The top of the tower was black clouds, which could control the rainfall.
The tower was guarded by the Thunder Eagle Clan.
"Heiyun didn't use puppets and Elementals, but he used a Creature Guard?" Tang Shidao was shocked by Heiyun's ability.
First of all, this desert was scary enough.
It was very large, many times larger than the Earth Emperor Star where he lived. To be able to expand such a Mage's Secret Room, there was no doubt about Heiyun's strength. It must be very powerful. Second, using a Creature Guard required a high degree of confidence, because the creature had the possibility of rebellion and was not as obedient as puppets.
From this point, it could be seen that Heiyun had a lot of confidence in himself.
"Tower Desert …" Tang Shidao confirmed the name of the Mage's Secret Room. It was just a description, just like the City Amongst the Clouds.
As the owner.
Tang Shidao knew that there were not only the Thunder Eagle Clan, who were the orthodox guardians in the Tower Desert, but also the Dragon Lizard Clan under the desert. They were non-orthodox guardians and would be somewhat obedient. There were also a large number of Sand Snakes, who also lived in the Tower Desert and were somewhat obedient. The rest of the Giant Scorpions and Sand Spiders were just creatures that Heiyun had found and had not had time to cultivate and train.
Because there was a small Magic Spring hidden in each tower, there were many powerful Magic Beasts and Magic Bugs in this Tower Desert.
Tang Shidao had just entered.
A large group of Thunder Eagles flew out of the nearby tower and rushed toward Tang Shidao.
The leader of the Thunder Eagles was very strong, and he felt that it was not inferior to him.
"New … New Master?" The Thunder Eagles flew closer, and the nearby Snakes, Insects, Scorpions, and Ants had already fled in panic. As soon as the few Thunder Eagle leaders saw Tang Shidao, they immediately felt that the Mage in front of them had the authority of the previous Master. For a moment, they did not know how to react.
It had been too long.
They thought that this place had been forgotten.
Compared to the previous Master, the new Master in front of them was too weak. They could not feel his majesty at all.
"Not welcome?" Tang Shidao found it funny. This was the trouble of living guardians. They had their own emotions and considerations, and the magic machine puppet would definitely call out to its Master at once.
"No … Hmm, Master, please come with us. Sir Heiyun left some things behind. If you can open the main tower, Master, you can live in it. "The Thunder Eagle leader gestured and dug a small hole as it spoke.
It was not that it did not acknowledge sovereignty.
It meant: Master, you have the authority, we do not object to you living in it. However, the previous Master left behind his legacy. If you can't get it, hehe, then stay aside for now. We can't open it for you anyway. If you don't have the power, then the legacy can slowly be left to dry.
Tang Shidao would not argue with a group of Thunder Eagles.
Magic Beasts obeyed the strong. This was their nature. It was impossible for a tiger to listen to an ant. With the Master's authority, Tang Shidao was not afraid of the Thunder Eagles causing trouble. If anyone wanted to cause trouble, he would shut off all the Magic Springs. Let's see who would dare to cause trouble. The Master was the Master. Strong or weak, they were all Masters.
Under the guidance of the Thunder Eagles.
After half a day.
They arrived at the central main tower where Master Heiyun lived.
In this central area, the nearby Thunder Eagles and Thunder Eagle leaders were more powerful. Some of the Thunder Eagles even surpassed their own level.
In front of the main tower.
A giant Thunder Eagle the size of an island flew down. Compared to the Great Molten Demons that crawled out of the volcano, it was a hundred times more dangerous. Tang Shidao had the Master's authority and immediately knew that it was the Thunder Eagle King that Master Heiyun had appointed. It was the highest position among all the Thunder Eagle guards.
No words were spoken.
The Thunder Eagle King only gestured: Please open the previous Master's door control.
It was not looking down on Tang Shidao, its new Master. It was just protecting its previous Master's dignity and at the same time, following its previous Master's last will. If Tang Shidao could not open the door, it would still acknowledge this sovereignty. However, it was hard to say if it would be obedient under normal circumstances.
Tang Shidao did not find it strange. This kind of loyal guard was more in line with the requirements of his duty.
He didn't like two-faced people either.
Next.
He tested spells, artifacts, alchemy drugs and so on on the door control seal … As expected, none of these things worked. When he tested the Yuanzu Tree Spear, there was a very strong reaction. Unfortunately, the door control did not open in the end. The Thunder Eagle King was not too disappointed. The new Master had something that could make the door control react.
"As expected, I still have to use this." Tang Shidao finally took out the Advanced Mage Credential.
There was almost no need to look at the result.
Tang Shidao had this kind of confidence to open it … As expected, the door control seal even rejected the Yuanzu Tree Spear. However, the Mage Credential dissipated upon contact.
"Greetings, Master." The Thunder Eagle King saw that its previous Master's last will had been completed and immediately bowed. This was its attitude. It was also an order to the other Thunder Eagles: From today onwards, this Mage was the new Master of the Thunder Eagle Clan.
"Greetings, Master." The other Thunder Eagle Leaders also bowed.
"Mm, you have all worked hard. Please continue with your normal lifestyle. Don't worry, I will not interfere with you. You just have to guard this place well. I know that there is a Resurrection Pool at the top of the cloud. Thunder Eagle King, I will temporarily hand this authority over to you. You will control its use. "Tang Shidao gestured for the Thunder Eagles to disperse. The Thunder Eagle King was the only one guarding the main tower.
The guards of the Mage's secret room were usually unlimited. To use living creatures, there must be a specialized Resurrection Pool.
Once he thought about Mage Blackcloud's ability to create a Thunder Egg Resurrection Pool, Tang Shidao could not help but be even more curious about this senior. This kind of craftsmanship, this kind of ability … Mage Blackcloud was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Thank you, Master." The Thunder Eagle King accepted the authority. However, it only had the right to use it. The sovereignty was still Tang Shidao's.
Tang Shidao gestured for it to fly back to the top of the tower. He himself stepped into the main tower.
He opened the door.
At first glance.
A stone giant statue with only the upper half of its body was lying peacefully in the Magic Spring. It was already dead. It was only using the Magic Spring to maintain its body. In other words, it was using magic power to preserve its important information.
Tang Shidao was very shocked. Normally, a Mage's legacy did not need the Magic Spring to maintain it.
This was because things like leaving behind spells only needed a light talisman. Even if there were other last words, a tiny bit of sealing magic power was more than enough.
What else did Blackcloud have other than his own legacy?
Was it so serious that it needed to use the Magic Spring's power?
Could it be …
Mage Blackcloud had more than one legacy?
