"Water Sage is telling the truth. She has no interest in deceiving you," the Dark Sage said, "Although telling you breaks the rules, it doesn't matter. This world is indeed within Daemonia. But I also don't know what specifically happened in ancient times." "I see. Let me be frank as well then. Our victory in attacking the medium-sized islands was a narrow one," Adrian exclaimed."What about the immortals trapped on the large islands?" Water Sage asked."They've naturally come out." Adrian smiled. "But now that they're out, how will you handle it? This world will ultimately belong to them. Are you willing to give up this world to them?""Of course not. Those factions without any background are just a mob. By choosing to escape the large islands, they have forfeited their right to speak in this chaotic world," Dark Sage declared."It's probably not that simple, right?" Adrian asked."Kid, the more you know, the faster you enter your grave. Let's talk about the daemon overlord ins
Dark Sage sighed and said, "We can't do that since we already agreed to help them. Moreover, even if I believe you, others won't. Let's not speak of this again.""Please reconsider, sir. If we allow the sea borders to intervene, it's only a matter of time before Daemonia crushes us. We won't be internally united. Are you going to East City Isle tomorrow?" Adrian asked."Yes, he is," Water Sage replied, "If daemon overlords really appear, this invasion has caught us completely off guard. Initially, we intend to let our juniors gain experience by teaching them how to fight Daemonia’s forces. According to the restrictions between the two worlds, daemon overlords shouldn't be able to descend here, so...""So you were careless?" Adrian questioned.The lives of countless mortals and immortals seemed nothing to these big shots. They had assumed there were only level eight daemons and never expected level twelve daemon overlords to arrive."Well, I have a plan. Would you be interested in
"Yes, during the ancient era, Daemonia drove this world to a desperate situation. All four regions around us were lost. It was from that time that the plan to build the Immortal Ark to evacuate all people of this continent emerged.""But that attempt failed?" Adrian asked.This sounded like something out of Earth's fantasies—moon landings and space exploration. It was all science fiction to him."It did fail, but it also uncovered a startling secret. Beyond the human world lies Daemonia. It seems that during the Middle Ages, some catastrophic event led to the human world being mistakenly trapped within Daemonia."Adrian gasped in disbelief. "What happened next?""At that time, there was a backup Immortal Ark, and we hoped to use it to travel to the other side of the sea," Fire Sage explained. "No one knew what lay on the other side, but it was the only hope for the entire continent."Dark Sage sighed and added, "Yes, if Daemonia can send one daemon overlord, they can send a second.
"Besides, the daemons pose a threat to us. Don’t you think we’ll be cornered if we stay in Mythria?" "Thank you for your trust. When the world is in peril, everyone has a duty to their country. I'm deeply moved that you, my seniors, consulted me on this matter. I'm willing to go, but I’m concerned about the safety of my people,” Adrian said.A level-twelve land sage, Earth Sage, who had been silent until now, said coldly, "Some will board the ark, while others won’t."Water Sage frowned and reprimanded, "Earth Sage, don't speak so harshly to the younger generation."Dark Sage chuckled. "Adrian, it’s cruel, but we can only take so many people.""How many?" Adrian asked.Water Sage thought for a moment, then said, "No mortals, only immortals.""What?" Adrian could hardly believe his ears."And all of them must be immortals from the Central Lands," Dark Sage added."So, I’m the only one from the Outer Territories who can board?" Adrian smiled bitterly."No, people from Rippia I
"A thousand years," Earth Sage said coldly. "Ever since Grandmaster Imogen's death, the mission of all apprentices in the Central Lands for the past three hundred years has been to search for Longevity Pills. How about it, young one? With a lifespan of ten thousand years, you can stand shoulder to shoulder with us at level twelve."Adrian felt incredulous. Ten thousand years of lifespan—he would be lying if he said he wasn’t tempted. He sighed and asked, "Could you please tell me the specifics of the plan?"Water Sage looked at everyone, and they silently gestured to her, indicating that she should explain."We plan to move south, first removing the daemons of the South Sea,” she revealed."What?" Adrian was surprised. "Do you intend to completely control the South Sea? That's almost impossible! Unless—""Unless we relocate all the immortals here.”"No wonder," Adrian said thoughtfully. "That’s how the great battle I saw came about. You moved all the immortals from other territor
At first, Adrian witnessed many positive events unfolding as planned. Using Dark Sage as bait, seven other land sages successfully wiped out two daemon overlords in one decisive strike.Things continued to go smoothly after that. They not only eradicated all daemons in the South Sea but also sealed the spatial rifts that had allowed the daemon overlords to enter, eliminating any future threats from that direction.Meanwhile, the immortals from the Central Lands acted swiftly, loading countless exotic treasures onto the Immortal Ark. Adrian was amazed by the power of the Immortal Ark, marveling at such a miraculous creation.The Immortal Ark, an enormous ship, docked in the South Sea. Inside, was a small world capable of sustaining living creatures, far more than just a simple storage space. This explained the vessel’s vast capacity.Over the next ten years, they encountered various strange creatures, but the Immortal Ark had yet to find a suitable harbor for them to settle. Adrian
Adrian said, "We’re leaving our celestial veins in search of a new homeland, believing we could find a place rich in aura essence. Yet, over the decade, we will find none. We discard every blade of grass and tree as useless, and we shun mortals as burdensome, with no space to accommodate them. We will lack time to organize everything, and in those ten years, life will turn barren. Immortals will live mechanically, obeying the Immortal Ark or sleeping in resignation. Half will succumb to psychological collapse, and the rest will face divine punishment.""What punishment?" Water Sage asked, intrigued by Adrian's words."We will disrupt life's natural flow. Perhaps mortals can’t create an immortal world, but can't we?" Adrian asserted confidently. "That's my proposal.""But this will take much time," Earth Sage protested. "Are you advocating for mortals out of sentimentality?"Adrian remained calm, undeterred by Earth Sage's opposition. "We can’t defy heaven's will. If we must, let us
"Next, how do we resolve the issue of celestial mines? We still lack a unified answer. Should we extract the essence stones and then refill them, or relocate everything intact? The latter method seems overly complex.“Also, Adrian mentioned plants, birds, insects, and fish, all part of the broader world. How should we manage them, considering the limited space in our ark? Should each faction contribute to expanding our small world's capacity as we draw closer to the grand world? Moving forward, there are numerous detailed issues to tackle. I've estimated it will take at least thirty years, not far from when the daemons are expected to counterattack," Dark Sage voiced his concerns."Thirty years? That's too risky!" Earth Sage couldn't fathom or support Adrian's risky proposal. After pondering, he spoke up, hoping to alleviate the doubts of the others."I have a method that can cut the timeline by ten years," Adrian interjected confidently.Water Sage was pleasantly surprised.
