One.
It had been more than six thousand years since the Sage-Emperor of the Magi entered the Void. During that time, many talented archeologists, tomb raiders, and explorers had been excavating the Earth's mantle. Among them, there was no lack of people like the Sage Vagabond, who was extremely knowledgeable and powerful. With the help of magic, one of them was equivalent to an entire engineering team. If the Sage-Emperor of the Magi's laboratory had been in the Void, it would have been dug up long ago.
"In the end, he must have hidden his laboratory in a special space, like a dimensional pocket. That's why no one could find it. Even if this space still exists in Isythre, unless he opened it up himself, no one would be able to enter it," Baiyi said. "More importantly, this space can be moved at any time, just like his personal belongings. No one would be able to find it, let alone enter it. This time, if he hadn't released his energy waves, we wouldn't even have known of this space's existence."
"To be able to open up a space in a realm large enough to hold a magical laboratory … What kind of power is this? That's why he could release such a powerful energy wave, right? "The Scholar exclaimed.
"He didn't tell me too many details about this space. Perhaps he was preparing for this day? Anyway, this is at least a forbidden-level space spell, "Baiyi said. Baiyi continued, "That Soft Solidification Stone must have fallen out of the Void because of the unusual fluctuation in the Void, right?"
"Tomorrow, I'll go to the place where I found the stone. If I can confirm that it was found recently, then all the clues will be connected, and we'll be able to confirm that our target is there," Baiyi said.
So, after enduring the long night, he woke up the barbarians early in the morning and urged them to put on the flying backpacks he had just given them. With the sheep on the ground and the snow eagles in the sky leading the way, they returned to the small village where they bought corn and found the stone wall where they had picked up the stone.
The stone wall was right beside the wheat field. It was very short, and an adult could easily walk over it. It was also very new, so it must have been built recently.
The three barbarians flew happily in the sky, and their laughter woke up the villagers. Baiyi found a farmer that he liked, and after a short chat, he asked the farmer to take him to the place where the barbarians had picked up the stones. Baiyi gave the farmer a gold coin as a reward and asked the farmer to take him to the place where he had picked up the stones.
The villager took him to a small river. The riverbed was full of large pebbles, which were basically the same as the other stones used to build the stone wall. The farmer didn't lie to him. After throwing him a gold coin, he left happily.
Baiyi, on the other hand, was strolling along the riverside. He had shrunk his Psychic Energy to a very close distance, so that he could maintain the maximum precision of his detection.
In the end, he sensed a faint magic wave coming from the bottom of the river. Using his magic power, he pushed aside a layer of mud and found a black round iron piece. Its size was very similar to a gold coin.
Baiyi carefully brushed aside the mud and sand on the iron piece, revealing a rough pattern underneath. It was very similar to the standard currency used by the Ancient Rohlserlian Empire.
Baiyi quickly searched his memory and compared it with the pattern of the Ancient Rohlserlian gold coin. He confirmed that this gold coin was indeed a relic from the Ancient Rohlserlian Empire. However, due to the influence of various factors, the coin had turned completely black.
The coinage of the Ancient Rohlserlian Empire was not very sophisticated, so there was always a problem with counterfeiting. Later, another Ancient Rohlserlian Emperor proposed to use magic to create coins. This way, the coins would emit a unique magic wave, which made them very difficult to counterfeit. That was also the time when magic was at its most prosperous and popular. Even a random passerby on the street knew how to cast a spell or two. Hence, the coinage method was passed down from generation to generation.
Fortunately, this method allowed Baiyi to detect traces of magic waves left behind in the coin. The coiner of that time was very impressive. Even after thousands of years, the magic waves still remained!
"No wonder he said that the Book of Servitude was prepared for me. If it had been anyone else, who would have known that he had such a special laboratory? Who would have remembered the Ancient Rohlserlian coinage method and found this crucial clue? "Baiyi gently rubbed the coin in his hand and carefully put it away in his storage pouch.
The ancient coin was buried very shallow in the river, which meant that it had only recently fallen out of the river. This meant that the entrance to the laboratory, or rather, the entrance to the realm, was near the river.
"But I've already narrowed down the area, and I still can't sense anything special. How am I supposed to get in?" Baiyi stood on the riverbank, feeling anxious. He felt like he was standing on the edge of a mountain of gold, but he could not reach out his hand.
"You can try asking the goats for help. Animals are more perceptive than humans in certain aspects," the Explorer Walker said. The Explorer hurriedly reminded him from the side. He was very excited to be able to witness the solution of an ancient mystery with his own eyes. The blood of the Grave Robber in his body was burning fiercely!
"You have a point!" Baiyi nodded. He remotely controlled the barbarians' flying backpacks and pulled them over to his side. After explaining the situation, the three barbarians whistled, and the three war goats stopped destroying the villagers' crops and rushed over to Baiyi's side.
When the goats arrived, they did not nibble on the weeds by the riverbank. Instead, they circled around a barren riverbank, dripping water. It was obvious that they had found something there.
"Is this what you're looking for?" Huskar walked to the riverbank and bent down to pick up a pebble. He squeezed it, and the pebble crumbled into a pile of debris. "These pebbles look ordinary. They're brittle."
'You're the only one who thinks it's brittle,' Baiyi thought to himself as he walked over. He scanned the area with his psychic energy and probed deeper into the ground, but to no avail. He then tried to scan the area with his mana, but it was still the same. Still, there was nothing to be found.
"Brother Hope, what are you looking for?" Zar 'Zar and Char' Char asked curiously.
"A door. An invisible door," Baiyi said in a way that the barbarians understood.
"If you can't see it, then how do you find it?" Huskar asked a philosophical question.
"I know! I know!" Char 'Char' Char exclaimed. "I remember a story my mother told me when I was young. There was an invisible door, and all you had to do was chant a spell, and the door would open."
'Do the barbarians have stories like that?' Baiyi thought. 'Maybe this is a good idea? I can give it a try. '
He opened his mouth and said, "Open Sesame."
There was no response.
"10G, please open Dalaran."
"Warlock, pull some candy and open the door, then retreat!"
"You dare to steal my man? Open the door!"
"I've earned enough votes."
In one breath, Baiyi uttered more than a dozen sentences related to opening the door, but the space still refused to yield. The three barbarians next to him looked at him with a confused expression, clearly having no idea what he was saying.
Baiyi felt that he was an idiot.
"Idiot! You're so stupid! You're speaking in the common language, but in Teacher's time, the common language was not used, right? "Lady Assassin Walker quickly reminded him.
'Huh? This stupid woman can come up with a good idea? But why are you calling him Teacher, too? You've seen how that old man behaves, haven't you? Do you really want to be his student? '
Baiyi retorted in his mind as he repeated what he had just said in Ancient Rohlserlian.
Of course, the way the barbarians looked at him became even stranger.
"Look at your stupid idea! You want me to repeat such a shameful act twice?!" Baiyi poked Lady Assassin Walker.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! "Lady Assassin Walker shrieked. Perhaps she felt that she was in the wrong, so she did not retaliate.
"Calm down," the Martial Artist consoled her. The warrior gently advised, "Try to recall what the teacher said to you. I believe the clues should be in there."
'That makes sense! The Warrior Walker is smarter than I thought, huh? ' Baiyi secretly gave the Warrior Walker a thumbs up. He began to recall the conversation he had with the Archmage. He sat down on the riverbank and began to think.
The Archmage had only convinced him that the book was his, and he had also told him that the book was his. Other than that, the Archmage had argued with him about the name of a new spell, asked him for pocket money, and decided which card he wanted to draw from next time. There was not much to say about those things.
Baiyi recalled the earth-shattering battle between the Archmage and the Lich. In that battle, he had used two different Territories, and he had defeated the Lich. 'Wait a minute … Two Territories?'
Baiyi recalled the time when the Archmage had used his Second Territory to subdue the Grim Reaper. At that time, the Book of Servitude had turned into a scepter.
'Is it really necessary to use a second Territory to deal with Soul Annihilation?' From what Baiyi knew about his teacher, he knew that the Archmage had other tricks up his sleeve. However, the second Territory was the most effective, and it was also the coolest way to win the battle.
Although this was very much in line with his personality, in a situation where he wasn't sure if the Lich had any other trump cards, rashly playing the biggest card in his hand didn't seem to be in line with his conservative and steady style of battle. It was risky and risky.
Could it be that the Archmage had not only used his second Territory to show off, but also to give Baiyi a hint?
