Chapter 1071 – The Bright Sword Severs The Emotions, Finally Ascending!
Zhao Hai was currently standing on a desert island. This island was quite a distance away from the Mage Continent. Moreover, it was in a location where s.h.i.+p routes never pa.s.s through. One could only see stone on weeds on the island. Describing it using a proverb, it was an island where birds wouldn"t even defecate in.
This island was the place Zhao Hai chose to ascend in. Although it was far from the Mage Continent, it was still considered to be part of the continent. Not only was it far from the Mage Continent, it was also very far from the Warrior and the Magic Armor Continent. It was fitting to call it a desert island.
With no use as a supply point nor could it be exploited for its resources, the island was naturally unoccupied by humans.
After collecting books from both the Mage and Warrior continent, Zhao Hai used the rest of the time to look for a place to ascend in.
Ever since Zhao Hai discovered that the laws of the Magic Armor Continent and the Mage Continent were different, he knew that he was now left with the decision on where to ascend. He also knew that ascending on a different place would also send you to a different place in the Cultivation Realm. And in the end, Zhao Hai chose to ascend under the Mage Continent"s laws.
The reason Zhao Hao chose the Mage continent was because Mages were still less numerous than Warriors. Mages need talent to cultivate whereas Warriors had easier requirements. Because of this, there were fewer Mages compared to Warriors.
The less of a thing there was, the more precious it was. Although Zhao Hai doesn"t know the status of Mages in the Cultivation Realm, in his opinion, Mages were still more valuable than Warriors.
Additionally, he was always dressed in his robe and staff. And from the past few days, Zhao Hai came to understand the level of magic in the Mage Continent. Although the magic in the Mage Continent was more beautiful compared to the boring magic of the Underworld"s researchers, it was actually weaker. And with his knowledge of the Undead researchers" magic, the magic level of the Mage continent was nothing to him.
As he stood on the desert island"s sh.o.r.e, Zhao Hai quietly gazed at the tumbling waves. His heart was a bit melancholic. Although he had been in the Atlanta Plane for some time, he was still aware that the plane was connected to the Ark Continent. With the Continent being his birth place, he felt sad that he would be leaving it probably forever.
Zhao Hai took in the scent of the sea"s gentle breeze. As he breathed in, he also felt that he only had two days before the energy inside his body reaches a critical point. When that time comes, then as long as he remains here, he would ascend.
Zhao Hai sighed before he sat down cross-legged. He was concentrating on his Myriad Stellar Transformations Yin-Yang Art. To be honest, besides that time in the Central Continent, Zhao Hai rarely practiced this cultivation method. He just let the method run its course.
Zhao Hai looks like he was just standing there, but in fact he was a.n.a.lyzing his own self. He discovered that he was actually a timid person. It was a deliberate decision for him to not practice the art. He wanted to delay his ascension as much as possible, and stay here for a long time.
There were two reasons for him to do this. First was because he came to love this place. And the second reason was because he was afraid!
He was afraid of the new environment. He was afraid of facing a formidable Cultivator. Perhaps he might not realize this, but it was what his subconscious wanted. It was because of this that he didn"t practice the Myriad Stellar Transformations Yin-Yang Art.
After discovering his own true nature, Zhao Hai couldn"t help but inwardly shout in shame. No wonder people said that the only person who might not know you would be you. This seems to be the case for him.
If he wasn’t about to ascend and tried to clear his mind, then he wouldn"t have realized this point. But fortunately, this realization didn"t come too late. Zhao Hai immediately used his divine sense to form a sword in order to sever this fear.
In the past, Zhao Hai heard the phrase, "the bright sword that severs the emotions", but he couldn"t understand its meaning. But at this moment, he finally understood those words. When the mind reaches a complete phase, it can feel one"s seven emotions and six desires. One would then be able to distinguish each of these and gain complete understanding. It was because of this that Zhao Hai, with no hesitation, used his divine sense as a sword in order to sever the fear in his heart.
Besides this fear, Zhao Hai also used his divine sense to sever any other negative emotion. This didn"t mean that he wouldn"t have a negative mood from now on. Emotions take root deep into one"s heart. Even if you wanted to prevent it from coming out, you couldn"t. Zhao Hai just temporarily cut these emotions off, they would come back later on.
The reason Zhao Hai did this was because he wanted to welcome his ascension in his best state. As his ascension gets closer and closer, he began to feel some things. These feelings made it known to him that having too much emotion during his ascent wouldn"t be good. Ascension still carried some danger. If one cannot maintain their peak state, then their ascension might very well fail.
Natives from the Mage Continent who failed in their ascensions died. Even Zhao Hai might be seriously injured if this happens. Zhao Hai wasn"t hoping for this to happen to him.
After Zhao Hai severed his emotions, he immediately felt an unprecedented sense of clarity. This clarity didn"t come from the neatness of his body. Instead, it was a feeling that came from inside.
Not only did Zhao Hai feel comfortable. He also felt that his mind became much more insightful. The rocky parts of the Myriad Stellar Transformations Yin-Yang Art seem to be easily broken through.
The bright sword that severs the emotions was truly worth its reputation!
A whirlpool began to slowly form around Zhao Hai. This energy whirlpool got bigger and bigger until it turned into a small tornado and then into a giant tornado. In the end, it became like a black hole that wantonly absorbed all of the energy around him.
And in the center of this maelstrom of energy was a calm and steady Zhao Hai. He didn"t feel anything other than the repulsion of the plane getting stronger and stronger. This tremendous pressure seems to be bent on expelling his from this plane.
Then all of a sudden, dark clouds began to gather on top of Zhao Hai. The clouds began to clump up as it slowly shone with lightning. These lightning snaked through the clouds as if they were ready to strike down at any time.
Zhao Hai also felt the dark clouds forming, causing him to stop his cultivation. He stood up and looked at the clouds right on top of him. He was aware that this was his tribulation before he ascends.
Zhao Hai didn"t dare to ignore these clouds, he quickly held his blood ghost staff. This staff went through a lot of transformations in Zhao Hai"s hands. At this point, it was a very attractive piece of work. The staff had a blood red body and on it were symbols of the constellations. It looked both attractive and mysterious. The entire staff was about three meters. The body itself was 2.4 meters long, with the constellations hovering 20 centimeters away from the staff. The rest of the 60 centimeters were taken up by the blood red lotus. The lotus had seven cores and was divided into 18 layers. At the end of each lotus flap was a small red ring that held bells that swayed gently with the breeze, emitting a delightful ringing sound.
Zhao Hai"s original staff was just a meter long. At that size, it was still very convenient to hold on to. With the lotus on top of it, the staff became bulky to hold. Because of this Zhao Hai normally had the staff head become a skull.
But this long staff was actually something that Laura and the others designed. Zhao Hai also agreed to the three-meter long design. For a Mage, this staff wasn"t short nor was it very long.
There was a lot of Mages who use staffs longer than three meters. There were even some who held staffs that were four meters or longer. These were used to arrange formations in order to resist the enemy.
However, after Laura and the others showed him their design, Zhao Hai felt that the staff looked more like what Buddhist Monks use. Also, this staff wasn"t only used as a staff, the giant lotus can also be regarded as a weapon. Upon seeing the staff, Zhao Hai thought about a weapon he saw back on Earth, the spiked mace!
Naturally, Zhao Hai"s magic staff was much more attractive than spiked maces. Zhao Hai took his staff and looked up as the sky turned darker and darker.
He knew that there was no way to avoid this tribulation, it was a requirement to all those who wanted to ascend. If he hid inside the s.p.a.ce, then this dark cloud would vanish, only to reappear when Zhao Hai went out once more.
Zhao Hair revolved his gold core, providing ma.s.sive amounts of energy to his body. At the same time, his dao lotus revolved gently. With each revolution, the energy in the gold core became more and more compressed. With the help of the dao lotus" mysterious energy paths, Zhao Hai can oppose any enemy he would come across.
Zhao Hai stood in place, his magic staff on his hand. The wind from the whirlpool disturbed his hair. But despite this, his eyes were stuck on the dark clouds overhead. He was waiting for the tribulation to come down.
Laura and the others were also inside the s.p.a.ce, looking at the dark clouds. They were worried for Zhao Hai, they also knew that this was a tribulation that he couldn"t avoid.
Not only Laura and the others, Karen, Green, and the other members of the Buda Clan were also looking at the situation outside. They stopped what they were doing in order to observe the spectacle.
After acc.u.mulating to a certain degree, the dark clouds began to rumble. And along with a very loud thunder, a lightning bolt crashed down on Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai looked at the lightning bolt and coldly snorted before he waved his magic staff. A yellowish light went out of the staff. As it went out of the staff, the yellow light began to absorb energy. Before long, a yellow hammer appeared in the air as it opposed the incoming lightning bolt.
The yellow hammer that the staff projected out gave people a very heavy and strong feeling. The hammer shone in the air as it welcomed the approaching lightning.
Boom! A loud sound was heard as smoke and fire began to erupt overhead. After the collision vanished, the lightning bolt nor the hammer can be seen.
However, this wasn"t the end. After the first collision, another lightning bolt came down. This time, Zhao Hai"s staff issued a purple light as it formed a huge s.h.i.+eld. This s.h.i.+eld looked incomparably st.u.r.dy. As the lightning hit the s.h.i.+eld, it seems as though the earth was about to break.
Despite the strength of the lightning, Zhao Hai"s huge s.h.i.+eld miraculously survived. Then Zhao Hai emitted, blue, green, purple and golden lights from his staff. These lights formed a huge stick that sunk 100 meters deep into the desert island.
Just as this giant stick was formed, the third lightning bolt went down. The s.h.i.+eld immediately dispersed. However, the lightning was attracted to the giant stick. Before long, the lightning dispersed.
Right after the third lightning went down, the fourth followed soon after. Since Zhao Hai didn"t have time to cast magic, he transformed his staff into a large glaive as he hacked through the lightning bolt.
The dark clouds seem to contain infinite amounts of energy. As Zhao Hai dispersed the fourth lightning, the fifth immediately crashed down, not giving Zhao Hai any time to prepare. But this time, Zhao Hai already crystallized his body. Although the lightning bolt hit Zhao Hai"s body, he still kept standing. The staff quickly formed into a s.h.i.+eld as he blocked the incoming lightning.
And just as the s.h.i.+eld has been formed, the sixth lightning came down. The s.h.i.+eld s.h.i.+vered gently, but it didn"t sustain any damage. Then the seventh strike came, then the eight, and then the ninth. Each strike as strong as the previous one. However, the blood red s.h.i.+eld protected Zhao Hai through them all. It only s.h.i.+vered slightly with each strike.
After the ninth lightning strike, the dark clouds began to disperse. Then Zhao Hai turned his blood ghost staff into its original appearance. Once the dark clouds have dispersed, a ten meter tall, three meter wide spatial rift appeared in the sky. The rift let out a sucking force that pulled Zhao Hai in. Zhao Hai"s present strength couldn"t resist this pulling force, so he could only let go and let himself be absorbed.
After Zhao Hai entered the rift, the desert island went back to its desolate state. But this time, Zhao Hai can no longer be seen!
Chapter 1072 – Machines!
After a dazzling white light, Zhao Hai opened his eyes slowly. He stared at four directions only to see that he was inside a room. Moreover, this room had people inside!
This room was quite big, having a floor area of more than a thousand square meters. It also had a ten meter high ceiling. The floor was made out of the same bright silvery material.
In this room, whether it was the walls or the ceiling, they were all made out of metals. On these metals were magic formations, each as mysterious as the others. These formations were layered on top of each other, adding on to their mystery. Those who were dabbling in magic formations would surely go blank upon seeing this scene, this was how wonderful the formations were.
This ten thousand square meter room was almost empty. Besides the people standing inside, there weren"t anything else.
Zhao Hai inspected the people with him. All of these people were wearing Mage"s robes. Their robes seems to be made out of ancient standards, covering their entire bodies. Besides these people were their magic staffs. Zhao Hai hadn"t seen staffs like these before. These staffs were all made out of metal.
While Zhao Hai was observing these people, they suddenly took a step forward. Zhao Hai waved his hand, taking his blood ghost staff out in preparation of defending against these people.
But at the same time, Zhao Hai also noted that the energy here was much stronger compared to the Atlanta Plane. It can be said that the laws of the Atlanta Plane and even the Underworld couldn"t compare to this place. Zhao Hai also noticed that the pressure on him had completely vanished. This feeling of being unrestrained was something that he hadn"t felt in a very long time.
Zhao Hai observed the five other Mages inside this room. When he swept them using his spiritual force, he suddenly discovered that these Mages didn"t emit any energy, they didn"t even emit any signs of life. This made Zhao Hai stare.
At this moment, the five Mages arrived in front of Zhao Hai. When they came close to him, Zhao Hai discovered that these people had number plates on their bodies. And even more surprising was the fact that these numbers are in Arabic Numerals.
The Mage with the number plate of "1" opened its mouth and said, "Greetings, ascended Mage. Welcome to the Machine Field. Please come with us."
The voice that went out of the Mage"s mouth sounded female. It actually sounded very gentle. However, Zhao Hai wasn"t attracted to this voice. This was because the voice sounded synthetic, artificial.
It was at this point that Zhao Hai can affirm. These Mages weren"t people, they were robots!
Although he was able to see this, Zhao Hai still made a polite response, "Thank you." After he said that, he followed the robots.
What made Zhao Hai feel even stranger was the fact that there were no doors nor windows in this room, it was just like a metallic cube. He really wanted to know how they were supposed to leave.
This was also the time that Zhao Hai discovered the reason why the room was bright despite the lack of windows nor doors. This was because on the walls of the room, as well as the floor, were sources of white light. The light was very gentle, it wasn"t overly dazzling.
Zhao Hai arrived at a wall alongside the five robots. This section of wall wasn"t any different than the other sections. However, Robot Mage Number 1 placed her hand on the wall and pressed a few magical symbols. After that, the symbols shone as a door opened right in front. This door appeared very quickly, Zhao Hai wasn"t even able to catch how it opened.
The door wasn"t that big, it could only accommodate two people walking side by side. After opening the door, Robot Mage Number 1 turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Respected Mage, please."
Zhao Hai nodded before walking through the door. Upon coming out the other side, Zhao Hai couldn"t help but pause. What entered was another room, albeit smaller than the previous one.
This room wasn"t big, only about 100 square meters in floor area. The walls of this room seems to be made out of stone. On its ceiling was a very ancient lamp. This lamp comprised of iron chains as well as discs. It looked very st.u.r.dy as it held fluorescent stones that lit the place up.
The floor was covered with a layer of carpet that was very comfortable to step on. What attracted Zhao Hai"s attention the most were the five bookshelves. Each bookshelf was stocked up with books. However, the books looked like they haven"t been touched for a long time.
Behind a table on one corner of the room was a person. The person was flat on the table and seemed to be asleep.
Zhao Hai could feel a formidable strength coming out of this person. It was a level of strength that he hadn"t met before. Even at his present level, if he was against this person, he can see himself lose.
The five Robot Mages brought Zhao Hai to the table before Robot Mage Number 1 opened her mouth and said, "Mister, a Mage has ascended to the Machine Field. Please register his presence."
The person groaned before slowly sitting straight. Then he stretched his body before saying, "Really, I couldn"t even sleep for a while…" Then after sobering up, the person looked at Zhao Hai and smiled before asking, "Name, plane of origin, and profession?" Zhao Hai looked at the person"s appearance. He couldn"t help but frown inside, but he still replied, "This one is Zhao Hai, from the Atlanta Plane, an all-element Mage."
While he was giving his answer, Zhao Hai was also sizing the person up. This person seems to be a Mage. His build wasn"t small. He had white beard that contrasted with his black mage robe. The man was knitting his eyebrows, his hair and beard were completely unkempt. He didn"t look that handsome.
The old man wrote with his quill as he listened to Zhao Hai"s answer. But when he heard that Zhao Hai was an all-element Mage, his quill stopped. Then he looked straight at Zhao Hai as he frowned and said, "You say that you"re an all-element Mage?"
Zhao Hai was actually attracted to the old man"s quill. Zhao Hai discovered that the old man"s quill pen wasn"t a normal pen. Instead of having ink on its tip, the quill pen actually emitted beautiful, dazzling light.
At the same time, although the table looked like it was made out of ordinary wood, it actually had a small film on top of it. As the light fell on this film, the words that were written began to levitate.
Upon hearing the old Mage"s question, Zhao Hai recovered, then he nodded and said, "Yes, this one is an all-element Mage."
The Old Mage"s two eyes shone, he smiled and said, "Alright, very good. Show me a spell or two." Zhao Hai stared, then he looked around before turning back to the Old Man, "Right now?" The Old Man looked at Zhao Hai"s reaction and smiled, "Yes, right now. But don"t use too much magic."
Zhao Hai nodded. He didn"t reject the request, he knew that this was some sort of test. He waved left his hand, summoning a tornado on his hand. As though like dancing elves, the tornado danced on his hand, drilling through his fingers as though it was a playful child..
This wasn"t the end, Zhao Hai waved his right hand, summoning a little fireball. This fireball also rolled about his hand. Then Zhao Hai threw the fireball over to his left hand. The fireball and the tornado met and proceeded to chase each other.
After that, Zhao Hai waved his right hand once more, summoning a ball of water. Then after tossing the ball of water to his left hand, Zhao Hai summoned a piece of stone, then a black and white ma.s.s. After summoning the six elements, Zhao Hai had them revolve around his body. They looked like six naughty children gathering around their father.
After showing this, Zhao Hai knew that he had shown his capabilities. He gave a snort as the elements vanished. Then he looked at the Old Mage and said, "Mister, is that enough?"
The Old Mage looked at Zhao Hai with s.h.i.+ning eyes as he nodded again and again, saying, "Good, very good." He said that while writing a few more lines on the table. After some time, he placed the quill down and then took out a piece of paper from the side. Taking a look at the contents of the paper, the Old Man nodded before handing it over to Zhao Hai, "Take this and follow them. Take a break for today. Someone will come and pick you up tomorrow morning. He will take you to a place, there you will know everything you need to know." Zhao Hai looked at the paper and read its contents. The writing was in traditional chinese, but Zhao Hai could see that the contents of the paper were related to him. It had his name, the plane he came from, the fact that he was an all-element Mage, and then some appraisals about him.
The Old Man really wasn"t stingy in appraising Zhao Hai. Above the information that Zhao Hai was an all-element Mage, the Old Man also added that he had reached a high-level of control and it was suggested that he should undergo training.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Hai couldn"t help but force a smile. He was an apex Expert in the Atlanta Plane. But in here, it seems like he needed training. He didn"t know whether he should laugh or cry.
However, Zhao Hai didn"t dare to show that he was dissatisfied. This was because he felt that the Old Mage"s strength was no weaker than him, and might even be more powerful. If that Old Man saw him looking dissatisfied, then he might teach him a lesson. With no information about where he was, Zhao Hai naturally wouldn"t mess anything up.
Chapter 1073 – Room 2046
The Old Man looked at Zhao Hai staring at the paper and smiled, "Young Man, go and take a rest. You just ascended to Machine Field. I know that you are the strongest person at your plane. But here, you"re just an early ascendant. Go, go and rest. Someone will fetch you tomorrow to take you to a place with all the answers you seek."
When he heard the Old Mage, Zhao Hai immediately stopped reading the paper. Then he gave the Old Man a respectful bow and said, "Yes, thank you for the advice." Then Zhao Hai turned around and followed the five Robot Mages.
After seeing Zhao Hai leave, the Old Mage murmured, "He"s a special one. A Mage that isn"t arrogant. He will surely make waves in the future." Once he said that, the Old Mage yawned once more before leaning on the table and saying, "I hope those guys can train him properly." His voice got quieter and quieter as he finally fell asleep.
Zhao Hai followed the Robot Mages and left the room. While they were walking up a level, Zhao Hai tried to use his spiritual force to scan the surroundings. Then he discovered that the building was made out of special materials that completely isolated spiritual force.
Upon knowing about this, Zhao Hai couldn"t help but be more careful. His spiritual force was very formidable, it was many times better than ordinary Mages. But even so, he still cannot penetrate anything inside this place.
Not to mention the Old Mage"s strength, nor the materials used to make this building that weren"t in the Atlanta Plane, the five Robot Mages alone made Zhao Hai curious about this place called the Machine Field.
But what made Zhao Hai curious the most was the fact that he didn"t ascend in the Cultivation Realm, but instead in this Machine Field. Also, he hadn"t heard about this place before, did Lu Wei"s remnant soul lie? That"s impossible. At that time, the soul has been subdued by the s.p.a.ce, it couldn"t have lied. It might be because he ascended in the Atlanta Plane.
After he thought about this, Zhao Hai couldn"t help but feel regret. If he knew that he would ascend to this place, then he might not have chosen the Mage Continent. Instead, he would just choose to ascend in the Divine Realm. After all, he still had some understanding with regards to the Cultivation Realm. As for this Machine Field, he was completely clueless.
But after some thought, Zhao Hai removed the negative thoughts from his mind and instead rejoiced. Looking at what just happened, it seems like the Machine Field was used to receiving ascenders. Moreover, they already had a set of procedures in welcoming newcomers. This was noteworthy. This meant that this plane"s strength was much higher than the Mage Continent. It shouldn"t be any weaker than the Cultivation Realm.
While Zhao Hai was thinking about these things, the five Robot Mages stopped in front of a room before Number 1 turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, please go in and take a rest. We shall be waiting outside. You can call us if you need anything." Zhao Hai recovered, then after he gave the Robot Mages his grat.i.tude, he turned around and pushed the door open. But upon seeing the door plate, Zhao Hai couldnt" help but stare. There were four numbers printed in arabic numerals, 2046!
When he saw these four numbers, Zhao Hai didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. It seems like he was number 2046. Who knows if this room was different compared to the others.
He gently shook his head and then entered the room. Zhao Hai also knew that this was just a coincidence, it shouldn"t be related to Earth.
It was an ordinary room. It was divided into two parts, a small living room and the bedroom. In between the living room and the bedroom was a door. Zhao Hai opened it and saw that it was the bathroom.
Zhao Hai couldn"t help but faintly smile. He didn"t mind the room anymore as he walked to his bedroom. The bedroom was also very ordinary, there wasn"t anything special inside. It had a cabinet, a bed, and a lamp. After looking through the room, Zhao Hai sat down and began to contact Cai"er using his mind.
And after hearing Cai"er"s reply, Zhao Hai began to feel relieved. Then he used his mind to talk, "Cai"er, I won"t be able to enter the s.p.a.ce in the meantime. I"m afraid this room is under surveillance. Let"s wait for a while as I gain more understanding about this plane. Tell everyone that there"s no need to worry." Cai"er gave her approval. After the small conversation, Zhao Hao stopped their communication. Then he began to sit cross-legged as he rested. What Zhao Hai didn"t know was the fact that he was right. This room was monitored. Not entering the s.p.a.ce was the right decision.
The moment Zhao Hai entered room 2046, his actions were immediately noted down. Moreover, his presence in this room began to shake the Machine Field.
Zhao Hai just came to the Machine Field so he didn"t know. The Machine Field was quite good in looking after ascenders from the lower realms. This was because everyone knew that the concentration of energy in both realms were very different. If someone was able to ascend from a lower realm, then this meant that they were rare talents. Such people needed to be trained well and they might emerge as powerful Experts later on.
Naturally, this went according to how diligent the ascender was. After all, back in their lower realms, these ascenders were powerful experts. But upon reaching the Machine Realm, they were demoted into ordinary people. Some people couldn"t bear this change of status and would live a life of degeneracy and vanis.h.i.+ng from the eyes of the people. There would also be people who treated the Machine Field as an amus.e.m.e.nt park, not having the heart to progress in their cultivation. With this mindset, it was impossible for them to become strong.
The place where Zhao Hai was currently in was an area specifically made to receive ascenders. There were quite a lot of planes that the Machine Field was in control of. And almost every year, an ascender would come from the lower realms. However, only a handful of these ascenders would truly prove themselves as talented, the others, for some reason, became just ordinary people.
But among the rooms used to receive ascenders, there was one room the Machine Field deemed very special. And it was room 2046!
Besides the reception tower as well as the first level staff room, the second to eleventh layers were places for ascenders to occupy. There were 100 rooms in each level. Above the eleventh floor were rooms for the staff to rest in.
There weren"t necessarily 100 people in the Machine Field"s Ascender Reception Area. Moreover, some of them would live here for just one night and then leave the day after. Because of this, these 100 rooms were generally empty. The staff responsible for registering the ascenders was also in charge of where to put them. Naturally, the a.s.signment of the rooms wasn"t random.
One"s room went according to the ascender"s recorded apt.i.tude. The higher your talent, the higher the floor you"ll be a.s.signed to. And the lower one"s floor a.s.signment was, the lower their talent would be. And Zhao Hai was in the second level, so he should be on one of the worst rooms. However, room 2046 was an exception.
Among the ascender reception staff, room 2046 held a very special status. Naturally, room 2046 was just an ordinary room in the beginning. But one day, it changed when a Mage from a lower realm ascended. This Mage was referred to have a low apt.i.tude, and that he had no future. Because of this, he was a.s.signed to room 2046. But who would"ve expected that the Mage would create a miracle, becoming a famous expert in the Machine Field. In his old age, the Mage decided to settle down in the Ascender Reception Tower. And from that moment on, each ascender that the Mage had his eyes on would be sent to room 2046. And after that, every ascender that took residence in room 2046 became strong experts. This Mage would continually a.s.sign ascenders to room 2046, and almost without fail, those ascenders would become strong experts. As this information got pa.s.sed around, the Machine Field began to have an unwritten rule, every ascender living in room 2046 was favored to be a strong expert later on.
Because of this, people would pay attention whenever an ascender gets a.s.signed to room 2046. But Zhao Hai was unaware of this. He thought that it was the Robot Mages" decision to a.s.sign him to room 2046.
At this moment, Zhao Hai"s image was pa.s.sed around to all influences in the Machine Realm. Before long, all of these powers began to note Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai continued to practice inside his room. However, he felt a little strange. He was very sensitive when it came to energy. Because of this, he knew very clearly that the amount of energy inside this metal room shouldn"t be that rich. Although the laws here were the same, the energy density had actually undergone a huge change.
Even if he was puzzled, Zhao Hai recalled the Old Mage saying that someone would take him to a place tomorrow. There, all of his questions would be answered. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn"t dwell on this matter for long.
Since he was in a new place, he needed to be low-key. Therefore, Zhao Hai planned to show as little as possible. But he didn"t know that the Old Mage fancied his talent and placed him in room 2046.
If Zhao Hai knew about what the Old Mage did, then he wouldn"t know whether to laugh or cry. Fortunately, he was careful and didn"t enter the s.p.a.ce. Otherwise, his secret might place him into huge trouble.
Zhao Hai didn"t know that his information was already on the desks of the Machine Field"s various powers. When these huge influences saw that Zhao Hai was a Mage that can use all of the elements, they immediately took note of him.
Back in the Divine Realm, Zhao Hai transformed his energy to s.h.i.+ft between battle qi and magic. However, due to the Mage Continent"s laws, this transformation between energies and elements was impossible. Zhao Hai didn"t know about this because he spent too little time in the Mage Continent.
