There were supernatural forces on this island, but they were not strong. He scanned the island with his powerful spiritual force and found that the strongest person was only a human equivalent to a rank 1 Magus in the Crystal Phase. Lin Xiao sneaked into the island quietly and bought a small shop on the street of a remote town. He opened a small shop that specialized in selling books and settled down.
Since he had left the original world, he was temporarily safe.
As long as Zhen Ming Ancestor did not come, no one would be able to find the correct path from the hundreds of spatial cracks in the center of the ancient battlefield.
He guessed that Zhen Ming Ancestor would not come in person. How could a small fry like him bother an ancestor to come in person? Back then, he had only touched Zhen Ming Ancestor's gaze. He did not face Zhen Ming Ancestor directly, so Zhen Ming Ancestor could not have discovered his secret.
The reason why he ran away was just to be safe.
The energy level of this world was not as high as the previous one, but it was a good place for Lin Xiao. At least it was safe.
He disguised himself as a bookstore owner on the island and read books to understand the situation of this world. Then, he slowly digested the sudden increase in his will.
After refining 100,000 souls, the remaining power of the will was enough for him to become a rank 3 wizard. These days, he had been slowly digesting the extra power of the will and using it to stimulate his body. He captured the energy particles in the void and turned them into magic power to prepare for his advancement.
At the same time, he was also slowly devouring the souls that he had refined, separating the soul force and the will.
The will continued to merge with his body. He estimated that after refining all 200,000 souls, his will would definitely meet the requirements to become a rank 4 Magus.
Once he became a rank 4 Magus, he would have the foundation to establish himself in this world.
According to the top secret records in the fifth battle zone, a rank 4 Magus was equivalent to a demigod. Although they did not have divinity, their essence was the same. This stage was very important for the Descended Ones. When they became rank 4 Magi, they would condense their truenames and gain the recognition of the Magus World.
To put it bluntly, becoming a rank 4 Magus was equivalent to having a name in the Magus World's consciousness.
This step was only useful for the natives of the Magus World to have access to the Magus World, but it was crucial for the Descended Ones.
In layman's terms, the descendant of the divine realm would have a negative reputation in the Magus World at first. They would have a reputation of indifference or even hatred.
Becoming a rank 4 wizard would raise his reputation to neutral.
It was still not very useful, but he could use various methods to increase his reputation and change his situation.
Everyone knew about the effects of Reputation. It was just like playing a game. Not only would the NPCs' attitudes become better with an increase in Reputation, but they would also obtain many good things that they could not obtain before.
This was extremely important to the Descenders. Once their reputation increased, the World of Adepts would release the suppression on them, allowing them to gradually regain the strength of their true form. Once their reputation reached a certain level, they would be able to fully recover the strength of their true form.
Generally, those who could raise their reputation to the point where they could let go of all restrictions were very strong themselves. Usually, they would have the strength of Level 5 or 6 or even stronger. Then, after combining the strength of their true body with the strength obtained in this world, they would naturally advance further and easily become the top powerhouse in this world.
The strength of Lin Xiao's true body was estimated to reach rank 7 in this world. If the Sorcerer system was also powerful, the combination of the two could possibly reach rank 8.
In other worlds, a rank eight wizard was equivalent to a greater divine power.
However, what attracted him more was the sacrificial method of the true form in this world. If he had the chance to transform his Ancient God Titan body into a second true form, or even a third true form, just thinking about it made him excited.
His Ancient God Titan body was already a top-tier True Body. If he transformed it into a Secondary True Body, he'd immediately become a top-tier existence among Level Eight existences. He'd be equivalent to a Level Nineteen Divine Spark Super Divine Power. He was only one step away from becoming a Primogenitor.
However, this one step was bigger than the difference between rank 1 and rank 8 combined.
Even if he could not continue to increase his Sorcerer level in the future, this alone would make him a top powerhouse in the main world.
Therefore, risk and opportunity always coexisted. His true body had taken such a huge risk to descend to the World of Adepts with all his strength suppressed. Naturally, there would be enough benefits to motivate him.
The lives of the mortals in this world were very simple. Lin Xiao would sleep until he woke up naturally every day before opening the store for business. He could sit in the bookstore with a book in his hand for the whole morning.
The business of the bookstore was very ordinary because he mostly sold ordinary books, such as strange travel stories and so on. Normally, only the rich would have the time to read such books. Most ordinary people were working hard to get three meals a day, so they did not have the time to read such books.
He did not mind. After all, the business was just a cover.
Time passed day by day, and the sun rose and the moon set. Year after year passed by.
The store blended well with the residents of this small island. The people nearby all knew that there was a bookstore here. If they had any needs in this area, they would come here to buy things. Occasionally, some children would come to read various travel stories and fantasize that they were the knights in the novels and could run around the world.
This was a child's fantasy. Adults knew that this was impossible.
This world was an ocean world. Most of the place was ocean. Only a few islands had some humans and other races living there.
This world was dominated by other races, and humans were only a minority with a large population.
After more than ten years, Lin Xiao gradually figured out the specific structure of this world.
The main body of this world was the endless ocean. The ruler of this world was a huge empire called the Sea King Empire, which covered the entire world. There were also eighteen powerful Sea Kings. This island called Vera was the territory of the Sea King.
The Sea King Empire was extremely large and powerful. The eighteen Sea Kings all had earth-shattering power. At least, that was what the information he knew. Considering that the evaluator's strength was average, this so-called earth-shattering power was discounted. However, it was certain that even with the discounting, they would not be weak. There should be at least rank 4 or 5.
The huge Sea King Empire had already ruled this world tens of thousands of years ago. There were almost no secrets in this world to this huge empire. Therefore, their main goal now was to conquer foreign worlds and plunder resources.
To Lin Xiao, this was good news. It meant that in the future, he could leave this world through the Sea King Empire's channels and go to other worlds.
After more than ten years, his power of the will and magic power had already surpassed rank 3. He had long been promoted to a rank 3 wizard.
Now, after fusing with the remaining power of the will of the 200,000 souls, he had reached the limit of rank 3. He was only one step away from becoming a rank 4 wizard. Moreover, he was almost ready to be promoted again at any time.
He sighed and stood up. With his hands behind his back, he looked at the bookstore that had been open for more than ten years. After staying for so long, he finally had to leave. He was a little reluctant.
There were only a few people in the bookstore. Among them, a young man and a young woman, were hiding on the second floor and were secretly having a tryst. With his powerful perception, he could even see the two exposed young women.
"It's good to be young!"
He sighed a few times and turned around, disappearing like a bubble.
When he reappeared, he had already left the island. This promotion to rank 4 wizard was very crucial. It would definitely cause a huge commotion, so it was not appropriate to stay on the island.
After meditating for a few days, Lin Xiao recovered to his best state. He did not start the promotion. Instead, he took out the soul power that he had accumulated in the Tesseract and fused it with his soul.
There was no need to keep this thing. It was now time to refine it.
This was the purest soul power. After being refined by the Tesseract, its purity was probably even purer than that of the Master of the Uncanny World. It could directly fuse with his soul to strengthen it.
The so-called Soul Apostle was actually devouring souls to strengthen their own soul. Then, they would replace the power of the will with the soul. Not only would they have the powerful spellcasting ability of a normal wizard, but they would also have the powerful ability to control souls.
Ordinary extraordinary professions could not control souls. Before their strength reached a certain level, their souls would only be passively strengthened when their professions were promoted. They could not be compared to Soul Apostles, who could devour souls to strengthen themselves. In the face of attacks from the soul, most extraordinary beings could not resist. This was one of the main reasons why Soul Apostles were so powerful.
What would it be like to devour 200,000 souls in one go?
Lin Xiao felt that the strength of his soul had skyrocketed by thousands of times in one go. He felt like he had eaten too much for a moment.
The powerful soul passively increased his power of the will and consciousness. At the same time, it led to the increase of his magic power. Even if he did nothing, he naturally began to promote.
To be precise, his soul was too powerful. It broke through a certain limit and began to change qualitatively. The first light of dawn began to be nurtured in his soul. When this light was lit up, he was a rank 4 wizard.
Rank 4 wizard was the name of an orthodox wizard. Different worlds and systems had different names, but the essence was the same.
When the light of dawn was lit up, it also meant that one had awakened their true name. This existence had entered the attention of the great will of the Wizard World.
For the Descenders, it meant that they had integrated into the Wizard World. Thus, the suppression was relaxed and they would gradually regain their former strength.
At this time, Lin Xiao had such a feeling. As his soul, spirit, magic power, and body all underwent qualitative changes, he could vaguely sense the vast will that was everywhere. At the same time, he could also sense the power in his own soul. This was a manifestation of his suppression being relaxed. Under normal circumstances, even if he could sense the existence of his own soul, he would not be able to sense the power of his true body.
At this moment, Lin Xiao's will communicated with the Tesseract and released all the remaining Titan bloodline in it.
At this moment, at this special time, the will of the Wizard World was most relaxed towards the Descenders.
