In the Witch King Tower, three people sat opposite each other in a fine marble hall. In the middle of the three people, there was a virtual world map floating in the air. Witch King Abertanic pointed at the center of the map and said,
"This is the Witch King Tower. The surrounding area is the central area and the core area of this world. Many powerful forces that have signed the ancient contract are scattered around."
At this point, Abertanic paused for a moment and said to Lin Xiao,
"Sir Lin Xiao may not know what an ancient contract is."
Lin Xiao immediately said, "Please, Witch King.
"Please tell me, Your Majesty Shaman King. I have no idea."
"The so-called ancient contract is a contract signed by the strongest forces of the ancient world after defeating the invading Scourge Lords of the Nightmare World. They established a loose organization headed by the Witch King Tower to protect the Sorcerer World. Later on, as long as a rank 5 Dawn Sorcerer is born, any force is qualified to join the ancient contract."
"The ancient contract is not mandatory. The Witch King Tower has no power to command any forces except when the Sorcerer World is invaded by foreign forces."
"Now, there are a total of 33 forces in the Sorcerer World that are qualified to sign the ancient contract, including the Sorcerer Empires, as well as the top guilds. The Tagoma Sorcerer Empire that Sir Lin Xiao was born in is also a member of the ancient contract."
"These forces now have cross-realm teleportation arrays. Every year, they send spies to the void to find the coordinates of other worlds, invading and plundering."
Hearing this, Lin Xiao suddenly thought of the ancient battlefield with countless spatial cracks leading to the Sea King's World.
He couldn't help but ask, "I remember that the Tagoma Sorcerer Empire has many spatial cracks leading to different worlds in the great wilderness. Why didn't the Tagoma Sorcerer Empire explore from there?"
"Because they can't!"
Abertanic shook his head with a serious face.
"Is there a reason?"
"This is what I was going to remind you of."
Abertanic suddenly coughed loudly. Jade Queen Tishar, who had been sitting quietly on the side, said, "Let me tell you.
"Let me tell you. That place used to be a passage used by a powerful foreign world to invade the Sorcerer World. Although it was only a probing attack, the other side gave up on the invasion. However, through that probing attack, both sides knew how powerful the other side was. That space passage is still open, and both sides can invade through it at any time. In order to avoid alerting the other side, we can't have a large army in that area."
"I see!"
No wonder the space in that area was so chaotic. A single battle had turned the former granary of the Tagoma Sorcerer Empire into a wasteland. Countless spatial cracks had yet to disappear. It turned out that an earth-shattering battle had indeed taken place there.
Here he asked again:
"It's not good to have such a powerful world hanging over our heads. Do we have any specific information about that world? Do we know their specific strength?"
Tishar explained.
"We named that world the Evil Spirit World. They have mastered the power of souls, and every time they go to a world, they will seize the souls of all the living creatures in that world, turning the entire world into a land of death. Back then, in that battle, they had two seventh-grade Magus Kings, but we could vaguely sense that there were other Magus Kings behind the world passage. Our initial estimation is that there are at least four to five Magus Kings in the Evil Spirit World, or perhaps even more."
"But there's one thing I'm sure of. They don't seem to have any Grade Eight existences. Otherwise, they would have attacked the Sorcerer World at all costs."
"This is still very dangerous!"
Four to five Grade Seven Magus Kings, or perhaps even more. Even if there were no Grade Eight powerhouses, they were still a huge threat. After all, the Sorcerer World only had three Magus Kings, including himself.
Although Abertanic was Grade Eight, he was only at the early stage of Grade Eight. Moreover, he seemed to be injured, and his aura was not very stable. This was a huge unstable factor.
If he suddenly fell one day, the situation would quickly deteriorate.
Evil Spirit World …
Just as he was thinking, Magus King Abertanic seemed to have seen through his thoughts and said:
"The Evil Spirit World has been coveting the Sorcerer World all these years, and they haven't given up yet. As far as I know, they have been sending spies into the Sorcerer World to gather information. Once the news of my death spreads, they will immediately launch a large-scale attack."
"Your Excellency, you?"
Abertanic waved his hand to stop him and continued, "Don't worry.
"I have lived for more than two hundred thousand years and have witnessed the changes of time. Even if I am not injured, I have reached the limit of my lifespan. Death is inevitable, and it will happen in the next few hundred years."
Lin Xiao was silent for a moment, then said:
"I remember that there are many witchcraft that can prolong one's life. With Your Excellency's strength, you can easily change your life form to obtain a longer life. Why?"
The old Magus King smiled:
"What you said is true, but as the master of the Magus King Tower and the World Guardian, many secret techniques are useless to me. Most importantly, my soul has been heavily injured by the Evil Spirit World's Magus King's secret technique, and I can no longer prolong my life by changing my soul."
Lin Xiao …
The old Magus King smiled with an open-minded face:
"Originally, I was unwilling to die like this, but when I saw the birth of a new Magus King, my heart was at ease."
The old Magus King suddenly stood up, and under Lin Xiao's surprise and apprehension, he raised the inconspicuous wooden staff in his hand and tapped it on his shoulder, saying in a deep voice:
"Your Excellency Lin Xiao, as the first Magus King, I appoint you as the second Magus King of the Magus King Tower. After my death, you will continue to guard the Magus King Tower. Are you willing?"
.....
Lin Xiao sat where he was in silence, not giving an immediate response.
He was not considering whether this was a trap or not. When the old Magus King said this, he could vaguely sense the existence of the Magus World's Will. The old Magus King's words were actually the Magus World's Will. As long as he agreed, he would obtain the recognition of the World's Will and become the second Magus King to take charge of the Magus King Palace, becoming the person with the most authority in this world.
It was not that he was special, like the Children of the Dimension, who would receive such a good thing as soon as they advanced. Any Magus born in this world would receive such treatment as long as they advanced to Level Seven Magus King. He just happened to be here.
The reason why he was silent was because he was considering his gains and losses if he agreed.
The benefits were clear. Authority, status, and strength. Becoming the master of the Magus King Tower was equivalent to becoming the first World Guardian. The feedback he would receive from the World's Will was higher than that of other World Guardians, and he would be able to break through the limits of Level Seven and advance to Level Eight very quickly.
However, the disadvantages were also clear.
If he agreed to become the master of the Magus King Tower, he would be restricted to this world. Unlike the World Guardians, World Guardians were relatively free. As long as there were no major events in the world, they could go anywhere. If the world was strong enough and there were no invaders, they could stay in the void and not return.
The master of the Magus King Tower was different. This was more like a guardian on duty. He had to stay in the Magus World and could not leave unless he found a new guardian to take over.
The possibility of this was not high. Looking at how Abertanic had lived for more than two hundred thousand years and met this new Magus King before he died, it could be seen how difficult it was to advance to Level Seven. This was much more difficult than the True God System.
For example, the overall strength of the Crystal Wall Universe CY- 00801 was not much stronger than this world, but there were tens of thousands of True Gods in the Pantheon Temple. They were not on the same level at all.
Lin Xiao did not want to be restricted to this world at all. It was not as if he did not have a way to continue advancing. He had already condensed the embryonic form of his Second True Body. All that was left was to constantly enrich himself. He did not need to take the path of becoming the master of the Magus King Tower.
Therefore, he said apologetically, "I'm sorry.
I don't want to become the Magus King yet. Perhaps you can consider Her Majesty Tishar. "
Abertanic did not show any disappointment on his face, as if he had already expected this.
"Her Majesty Tishar is the master of the Emerald Dream World. She cannot become the master of the Magus King Tower."
"Perhaps you are not fully aware of the benefits of becoming the master of the Magus King Tower. You may not need power and status, but you definitely need power. I can see that you are very young. To be able to grow to this point so quickly, you must be very thirsty for power. If you become the master of the Magus King Tower, the feedback from the World's Origin will allow you to step into Level Eight in a short time and become the top powerhouse in the countless worlds in the void.
He suddenly lowered his voice and said,
"I can feel that you are in need of the World's Origin. I can feel the potential in you and your thirst for the World's Origin. Your potential is stronger than any existence I have ever seen. If you become the master of the Magus King Tower, you can actively promote the conquest of foreign worlds. Every time you conquer a world, as the first guardian, you will receive 20% of the plundered World's Origin as a reward. Believe me, as long as you can conquer a world as powerful as the Evil Spirit Realm, 20% of the World's Origin will be enough to satisfy your thirst."
This was a blatant temptation, but it had to be said that he was moved.
He now needed to plunder the World's Origin and Laws to supplement his Secondary True Body prototype and condense his Ancient God Titan True Body.
Unlike the True Bodies of other powerhouses, some powerhouses grasped different Laws. They only needed to plunder the corresponding Laws and did not need the World's Origin.
For example, if a powerhouse grasped the Law of Fear, then they only needed to collect a large amount of fear to transform it into power to supplement their True Body and condense a Secondary True Body named after fear.
The Ancient God Titan True Body he condensed was the first innate Ancient God body. Not only did he need to integrate many Laws into it, but the most important thing was a large amount of World's Origin.
To plunder the World's Origin, he needed to conquer a world. Previously, he had thought of using the identity of a guardian to gain some experience while the other major forces of the Sorcerer World were invading foreign worlds. However, after hearing the words of the Magus King, especially the fact that the Head Magus King could receive 20% of the World's Origin, he was truly moved.
It should be known that a normal guardian could only receive 5%. If there were more world guardians in the future, this share would decrease. However, the Head Guardian would always receive 20%. This was too tempting.
Therefore, after considering for a long time, Lin Xiao still lowered his head to reality and said to the old Magus King Abertanic.
"In that case, I am willing to take over the position of the Magus King Tower Master and protect the Sorcerer World!"
