The three of them disappeared into the endless cave filled with skeletons.
It was seven days later when Li Xiang walked out of the skeletons cave again.
During this period of time, they did not meet any familiar faces. Instead, they encountered a few groups of enemies from aristocratic families. At first, those people had an excited expression on their faces. After all, killing Li Xiang here was a great merit.
Unfortunately, they all became Ellie's food or White Spirit's sword.
On the last day, Li Xiang and White Spirit found their respective player carriers at the same time.
Basic Mysticism Magic Runes were very rare. Just like this type of Magician, they were very rare in the seven continents. He had searched for an entire week and only found one. There was no choice at all.
After the complete fusion, Li Xiang's magic circuits, weights, magic, and everything related to magic disappeared. From this moment on, he officially broke away from his identity as a Magician.
Just as the seniors said, the more prepared he was before becoming a player, the greater the improvement he would receive when he advanced.
The degree of fusion of Magic Runes was determined by one's overall quality. For example, his weights had reached the maximum capacity, and most Magicians could not even touch the limit. Therefore, in this aspect, he was far ahead of many others.
The direct benefit this brought was the number of magic particles in his body when the weights broke. The magic particles that far exceeded the number of people trapped the basic Magic Rune firmly in his body, not letting a trace of its aura leak out.
After the fusion, Li Xiang's Constitution improved again. It could be said that he had officially advanced from a human to a Player's Constitution, and it was the highest grade.
Player, Disaster, Machine, Void. The fusion of the four major constitutions took him a lot of time and effort. In the end, they perfectly merged into one and appeared as a mysterious dark golden aura.
This mysterious dark golden aura was the Primordial Aura, the beginning of all things. It gave off the same aura as the golden runes carved on the Book of Creation.
Those golden runes fell here and turned into player carriers. Their essence was the extremely condensed essence of the Primordial Aura, which contained the knowledge of the laws contained in the Book of Creation.
As long as Li Xiang continued on these four paths, the Primordial Aura would become stronger and stronger. As it grew stronger, one day, the Primordial Aura would replace the magic particles he relied on, replacing the most basic Origin Substance particles.
At that time, he would become the only species to use something similar to the Book of Creation in battle.
After realizing this, Li Xiang's confidence skyrocketed. This was an evolution that transcended dimensions. This way, whether it was against the human players or against the Calamities, he would be on the higher side.
No wonder that mysterious existence had chosen him to give the Paradise of Annihilation.
It seemed like what truly attracted it wasn't Li Xiang himself, but the primal aura that had been born in his body through a series of coincidences. It was of the same origin as the Book of Creation and was a supreme aura. Perhaps only the primal aura could subdue such an existence.
The basic magic rune Li Xiang got was more of a research type. The mysterious substance it created was something like a metal workbench. It seemed that it could be used for further research on the combination of machinery and magic.
It didn't have any actual combat effectiveness, but this was within his expectations.
Arcane Magicians were fanatical researchers. Because the magic they studied was more of a mystical side, other Magicians couldn't touch it, so they were the only ones who could devote themselves to this most mysterious of academic research.
Some of the great scholars at the top of the Chronometer Tower were Arcane Magicians. They disdained to learn combat magic. In their eyes, exploring the true essence of magic and unearthing the deepest secrets of mankind was the true battle.
As for actual combat, it was better to leave it to the offensive Magicians.
It was undeniable that these great scholars had strange thoughts and acted strangely, but they had also pushed the development of the human era.
If they only relied on combat, the evolution of mankind would still be very slow. Someone had to dedicate their life to research. Only then could the stagnant or slow wheel of history continue to move forward.
Bai Ling had fused with the highly offensive assassination tattoo. Although she also had the potential to be a Magician with six awakened magic circuits, after much consideration, she chose to walk the path of an assassin.
Because that was the path of the strongest attack.
In her opinion, even if she broke through the shackles of Level-3 like Li Xiang, after becoming a player, if she walked the path of a Magician, there was a high chance that she would still be no match for Bai Dongxue. Therefore, she had to walk another path and find her own path.
"You really are obsessed with him." Li Xiang shrugged helplessly. From all aspects, becoming a Magician was definitely the best choice, but he had no right to interfere with Bai Ling's choice.
Bai Ling chuckled. "It's hard to describe this feeling, but I think most of the Bai family members feel the same way. There's always such a huge mountain above our heads. No matter how good we are, we can only approach him, but never surpass him. If we can't even surpass Bai Dongxue, how can we chase after the White King's footsteps? "
"Is he really that strong?" Li Xiang clicked his tongue. Although he had heard similar words from the White Lion Tiger and Baimiya many times, when it came from Bai Ling's mouth, it was still quite shocking.
Bai Ling, who had not broken through the shackles of Level-3, was practically the strongest Level-3 Magician in actual combat. After breaking through, if he did not use the Magician Card to restrict her magic, even Li Xiang could not guarantee that he would be able to beat her.
The chances of winning should be around 60% to 40%.
How strong was Bai Dongxue to be able to make her feel powerless? He was now a Level-2 player, and the gap between them was not that big.
"You … to us, of course he's very strong. But what are you worried about? " Bai Ling patted his head dotingly. In her eyes, no matter how much Li Xiang had changed, he would still be the cute little brat from before.
If there was anyone who could fight Bai Dongxue at the same level, it would probably be Li Xiang.
What was even scarier was that they had subconsciously neglected the fact that Li Xiang, Baimiya, and the others were considered juniors of their batch!
Not to mention Li Xiang, if Baimiya was given a certain amount of time to grow, would she really not be able to surpass Bai Dongxue?
It was hard to say.
"Our standpoints are different. I feel like there will be a battle." Li Xiang answered truthfully. Not only him, but also the White King who had said that those who were not of the same race as him would definitely have a different heart.
The only reason he could reluctantly accept Bai Dongxue was because of Bai Lili. However, one day, if Bai Dongxue really grew to the point where he could threaten the human camp, would the White King have the possibility to attack him?
If Bai Dongxue fell into the Disaster camp, it would be the nightmare of countless human players. With the White King's personality, he would not allow such a possibility to happen.
He carried the title of the strongest player and enjoyed the respect and adoration of countless humans. Naturally, he had to bear the corresponding responsibility.
During the Eternity Gate, he had backed down and caused Lancelot's death. This was the stain of his life.
Perhaps to him, this long life was just to wash away this stain.
The White King was a perfectionist. Even though they had not interacted much, Li Xiang could still see this.
The more he thought, the greater the pressure.
Bai Ling sighed. The Crimson Moon was rising step by step with the support of the White family. At this rate, it was only a matter of time before they entered the Alliance of Aristocratic Families.
After the player assessment ended, Li Xiang's dual profession would be announced. Then, no one would be able to stop the rise of this new organization.
However, the more this was the case, the more uneasy he felt. What was going on?
"I have a feeling that you can't return to the seven continents," Bai Ling said calmly. Bai Ling said calmly, "You have too many enemies. Even if you become a player, those people won't just stand by and watch you grow. Everything you have now is based on the White King's support. He will protect any human with potential, especially when you become a player and reveal the same potential as Bai Dongxue. "
"But that's only if I don't cross his bottom line," Li Xiang added.
What was the White King's bottom line?
Without a doubt, Bai Lili's resurrection.
This was something he could not tolerate, and something he would definitely stop.
Even if there was no one in the world who loved his sister more than he did, he still would not let this crazy sister of his revive.
She had gone to the Gate of Eternity with him. She was the only one who was not affected by the "refresh". She was also the first existence above Level 9.
If Bai Lili stood firmly on the side of the human camp, it would be a sign of the human era's glory. However, after returning to the seven continents, she formed a heretic, recruited evil followers, and called herself the evil leader. She wanted to destroy this era, regardless of whether it was humans or disasters. Then, she would build a new, perfect world.
This was an extremely crazy idea.
As the most determined guardian of the human camp, the White King would naturally think of ways to stop her and prevent her resurrection.
This was an existence even more terrifying than the disasters.
At present, no one knew the real requirements and time for Bai Lili's resurrection. It might be one day, or it might never happen.
However, she had firmly told Li Xiang that resurrection was inevitable. Everyone could only be witnesses. She was not worried that she would not be able to resurrect.
Indeed, all this time, things had been going according to her expected trajectory.
Bai Lili had the terrifying ability of omniscience and omnipotence. Other than being unable to see through herself, she could see almost everything clearly.
Even if it was just a derivative ability, the Book of Prophecy was already the top disaster weapon.
According to the Night King and the Polar night Magician, the few people who had gone to the Gate of Eternity together were no longer affected by the refresh a year after Bai Lili's death.
Li Xiang had been "refreshed" once, but the effect was average. It was clear that it was not that the Emperor's method of refreshing the Goddess of Calamity had failed, but that it had weakened.
Even so, the White King and the others still did not know the reason for Bai Lili's great change in temperament.
If they did not know, they would not be able to understand her fanaticism for creating a new world. And from Li Xiang's contact with this cheap mother, this woman looked down on everyone from the bottom of her heart, except for herself.
In other words, she really wanted to reshape the entire world, and she did not care about others at all. She was so indifferent that she did not care about the reason at all. Just wait for your death.
In this case, even if the White King and the others wanted to understand the concept of a new world, they could not do it and could only passively refuse.
This was a dead end.
Even if Li Xiang saw it from his perspective, he could not reconcile the conflict between the White King and Bai Lili because Bai Lili had never thought of explaining anything.
If Li Xiang showed that he had something to do with Bai Lili's resurrection, he would definitely die, and so would Ye Tong.
This was what Bai Ling was most worried about.
"We all believe that you don't know Aunty's real purpose, but it's still too dangerous." Bai Ling sighed. "Moreover, the enemy players won't just stand by and watch you grow in the seven continents. Definitely."
"Yes, but I don't have a choice now. If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid that as soon as we leave the players' assessment, the Crimson Moon will have to prepare for a war of life and death." Li Xiang nodded. He was not only burdened with his own life now.
There were also the fates of many people who depended on the Crimson Moon to live.
Moreover, he had learned from Bai Yuhan that Lancelot had not really died. Instead, he had been reborn as a Disaster.
Lancelot and Bai Lili both had their own goals. They would definitely start a terrifying war one day. When that time came, no one would be able to stay out of it.
Instead of worrying about whether or not the White King would kill him, he should think of a way to develop his organization to the point where he could protect himself before the war.
However, this could not be made public for the time being.
Who would believe that Lancelot was still alive? If he said this, it would only make people think that he was making things up to save his own life.
"You're talking about General Shogun, aren't you?" Bai Ling sensed something. "He has officially advanced to the general level."
"Of course. With Ji Zhanxue's support, the rank of major general in the Army is a piece of cake." Li Xiang knew about the enmity between Ji Zhanxue and Ji Shanhan. With Ji Zhanxue's current prestige and the fact that he had forced Chief Instructor Kou Ruhai to the Great Wall of Disaster, he was probably one of the most important people in the Army now.
It would be a piece of cake for him to promote a brigadier general under his command.
Everyone knew about the conflict between General Shogun and Li Xiang.
"But I've also become a player." Li Xiang smiled faintly.
If he had not taken this step, a major general with real power and great potential in the Army and a young genius who had not become a player would have been a choice anyone would have made.
However, Li Xiang had become a rare dual-profession player with amazing combat strength. General Shogun had broken through to Level 2 and had extraordinary potential as well. This choice was not so easy to make.
However, they had to choose one of the two. Even if the important people did not interfere, they would still have to fight to the death.
This war was unavoidable. It was because of this that Li Xiang had been planning since before the School Championship Competition. He had to have an organization that could compete with General Shogun and a lot of support.
After all, his enemies were not only the ten major armies that he had carefully cultivated, but they also had the support of the Ji family. After so many years, his connections in the player circle were not something that Li Xiang could compete with.
This war would determine the future of many things.
Seeing that he had this resolve, Bai Ling did not say anything more.
The Bai family would most likely not make a move, so the Ji family would not make a move either. Then, it would be time for the two of them to compete with all their trump cards.
"I'll stand by your side and help you," Bai Ling said faintly.
"Anyway, if you lose, you can come to the Void World. I'll wait for you." Ellie also smiled. With Li Xiang's help, she had gained a lot. Compared to this, the somewhat humiliating genetic sharing contract was nothing.
If she had not seen him reject one beautiful girl after another, Ellie would have wanted to give herself to him.
"You can bring Ming Xu back," Li Xiang suddenly said to her. "I'll let you go too."
