Besides, Nefa had also mentioned that Rogge had already undergone major changes, and who knew if those changes were good or bad. If Lin Li were to go and get the item for Nefa now, he would be courting death.

Lin Li simply wanted to get some information from Nefa. His greatest agenda was to find out more about Rodhart so as to avoid meeting with danger when going to the underground palace to obtain Polar Snow and Raging Flames. However, in order to reduce the dangers that he would possibly encounter in the future, he would have to go all out and risk his life here. Lin Li had never done anything as such; that would obviously put him at such a huge disadvantage.

Seeing that Lin Li refuted without hesitation, Nefa didn’t panic, and instead waited for a moment before saying, “You don’t have to worry. That Dark mage, who is also High Priest Rogge whom you mentioned, is now existing in another form. Before he evolves again, he will not pose any threat to you.”

“Oh, in this case, you’ve been neighbors with him for such a long time. Why don’t you go take it yourself? According to what you said, he probably shouldn’t even pose a threat to you given your current abilities and power. I’m just an insignificant mage, and to people on your level, I’m just a small fry,” Lin Li retorted relentlessly. Lin Li had no idea when Rogge entered the big crack and when he evolved in form. Hence, he refused to believe that the time that he entered was the best timing to get the thing that Nefa wanted. Nefa and Rogge had been living together for at least 1000 years. Could such opportunities only come by once?

“There’s a reason why I can’t go there. Haven’t you discovered that the volcano below us is probably different from any one you have seen before?” Nefa asked while looking at Lin Li calmly without any panic. Clearly, he was very confident in his reason.

“Is that so? What’s so special about it?” In fact, when Lin Li had first entered, he’d merely taken a glance at the environment there. Ever since then, he began to focus all of his attention on Nefa. After all, he was the descendant of the Dragon of Destruction and the only one who could pose the greatest threat to him. Lin Li didn’t pay much attention to the volcano beneath him, and he merely knew that standing on the volcano made him feel like he was standing in the sky.

Even now, Lin Li was still keeping his guard up, and when Nefa told him to observe the volcano, he did not plan to shift his gaze at all. It was not that Lin Li was timid, but rather that his life was at stake, and he definitely had to be more careful. He was facing the descendant of the Dragon of Destruction, and there were plenty of powerful prehistoric magical beasts. If he were to be careless, a slip-up would cause him to die a horrible death.

At this moment, Nefa took a step to the side, but it was only a small step. The volcano, which was initially dead and quiet, suddenly exuded a massive magical wave which was disorderly like an extreme storm. It was also like real lava that was pouring out immediately. It was far beyond the limit of what humans could rival. Besides, it was just a magical wave. One could imagine how terrifying of a Elemental Storm it would cause once the massive power of the magical wave leaked.

With the emergence of the violent magical wave, the prehistoric magical beasts that gathered under the volcano—the menacing Minotaurs and the Evil Eyes that were good at attacking others with their peculiar mental strength—immediately got riled up. Immediately afterwards, an Elemental Storm gradually condensed and formed in the sky above the prehistoric magical beasts. As soon as it took shape, more than 10 Evil Eyes that were weaker than others instantly crumbled.

The violent magical wave was gradually suppressed only when Nefa returned to his original spot. The Elemental Storm also slowly dissipated. At this time, Lin Li also understood that Nefa was telling the truth. According to what happened just now, the Elemental Power would definitely explode without restriction if Nefa were to leave his spot, and cause the entire space to collapse until it became destroyed.

“You finally understand why I can’t leave this place now, huh?” Although more than a dozen Evil Eyes had died because of his demonstration, Nefa clearly didn’t value them greatly. He simply stared at Lin Li calmly and waited for his answer.

“Oh, I see.” Lin Li nodded and changed his tone. He continued, “However, I still can’t help you out. You’d better wait.”

“Aren’t you looking for the Dark Mage of the Darkness Shrine? Since you are going to see him anyway, you can just take the item for me too,” said Nefa, who finally had a change in emotions. Over the past millennium and more, only two people had entered. How long would he have to wait until the next visitor came? Although his lifespan was almost infinite, he couldn’t waste it like that.

“Who said that I’m here for the Dark Mage? I’ve never said that before. If he’s already dead, I wouldn’t mind taking his corpse back to the Darkness Shrine. However, I’ve never taken any unnecessary risks,” said Lin Li, who was rather displeased because he was there to find out about Rodhart, and he wasn’t a believer of Darkness nor the Darkness Incarnation whom they were talking about. What would Rogge have to do with him? If there were no dangers involved, he wouldn’t mind trying to ask Rogge about some Dark Magic. However, Nefa was the one who said that there were no dangers, and Lin Li didn’t believe him at all. Well, he wasn’t courting death, anyway.

Nefa was stunned for a moment, and he carefully recalled the conversation just now, only to realize that Lin Li really hadn’t mentioned that he was there to look for the Dark Mage Rogge. However, if he were to miss such a rare opportunity, the Dark Mage Rogge would probably have evolved by the time someone else dropped by again. He would then no longer have any chance. He glanced at Lin Li and remained silent for a while before saying, “Since you’re a mage, I reckon you’d definitely be interested in some things. As long as you can help me out, I’ll give you some of the things that my adoptive father has given me.”

Nefa’s adoptive father was none other than the Immortal King! Although Lin Li had gotten used to seeing good things, he still couldn’t help but be surprised when he heard Nefa’s words. The Sky Castles could be considered the product of integration of various skills, and the skills of the Immortal King were evidenced by the Sky Castles. Many tried to replicate the Sky Castles, but none of them succeeded. Osric created the Eternal Furnace, while the Supreme Council created the Sky Tower. Apart from the lack of materials, the lack of skill and technique was also a key limitation.

Lin Li had Guru-level attainments in many fields, but he still felt that he lacked understanding of the various skills of the Immortal King, and he even suspected that the Immortal King might have reached the level of a Divine Smith in a certain aspect. For example, most Guru-level professionals wouldn’t be able to produce the Stars of Fury that was condensed by mana. At least Lin Li, a Smithing Guru who knew the Stars of Fury very well, could not replicate it using mana, either.

Hence, even Lin Li could not stay calm after hearing Nefa mention the Immortal King’s items. The things created by the Immortal King were probably close to being artifacts even if they were not at that level. At the thought of this, Lin Li tried his best to suppress his excitement, and pretended to be calm. “Oh, what are those things?”

Actually, Nefa had already seen some expected changes in Lin Li’s behavior, and thus wasn’t muddled up or confused by his question. Instead, he smiled, and said, “It’s a magic robe which was infused with power by the Immortal King himself. I believe it’s very valuable to you mages.”

However, after hearing this, a look of disdain suddenly formed on Lin Li’s face, and he was clearly rather disappointed with Nefa’s answer. A robe that had been infused with Space Power by the Immortal King was just like something that had been used by a celebrity. Basically, it was only a memento, and held more sentimental than practical value. Space Power would not be changed even if it was infused by the Immortal King. Besides, Lin Li already held too much power, and he already had five of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, which was akin to holding five basic nomological powers. Those five would also produce other powers, and Lin Li didn’t think that that Space Power was worth risking his life for.

Nefa naturally noticed the disdain on Lin Li’s face. However, Nefa didn’t get upset because of that. Instead, he proudly said to Lin Li, “Do you think this is ordinary Space Power? Let me tell you, the robe contains the Space Laws that the Immortal King has sealed himself, and owning this robe would be equivalent to mastering the Space Laws. If you can integrate this power into your Magical Domain, it would be akin to owning the Space Laws and the various Magical Domains that come from the Space Laws.”

Nefa’s detailed explanation immediately gave Lin Li a great shock. It turned out that he was completely confused and muddled up. The Immortal King was formidable; how could he bother doing such senseless things? Sealing Space Laws and infusing Space Power were completely different.

Infusing Space Power was equivalent to having a sword that would never change regardless of how one used it. On the other hand, putting a seal on the Space Laws was akin to owning a piece of metal that would change as one preferred. As long as one mastered it, it would be up to them to do whatever they wanted, be it making it into a sword or spear. That was exactly the difference between the two levels. They were worlds apart.
