Chapter 610: Chapter 571: The Fall

The guards of the Jade Courtyard discovered that all the items in the treasury had been stolen.

Li Wei had already left the Jade Courtyard.

He returned to the Elemental Tower.

He had originally wanted to go to the battlefield with the Legendary Witch Lich and see how the fight was progressing.

However, he found that he couldn’t open a Teleportation Gate to that location.

The spatial coordinates were correct.

But he just couldn’t open the Teleportation Gate.

Li Wei realized that some kind of spatial blockade must have been used on the other side.

Therefore, he had no way to go over and join the battle.

Li Wei had no choice but to return to the Elemental Tower first and wait for news.

When the Legendary Mages of the Elemental Tower saw Li Wei return, they curiously asked him why the Jade Prince had sought him out.

When they heard Li Wei say that the Jade Prince wanted to recruit him, his peers all looked at him with envy.

And when they heard that Li Wei had rejected the Jade Prince’s offer, their expressions turned to utter disbelief.

They couldn’t help but exclaim things like, "You could resist even that? You must have the willpower of someone who’s kicked a serious addiction."

After hearing about it, even the Vice Tower Master of the Elemental Tower couldn’t help but pat Li Wei on the shoulder.

He encouraged him, saying, "Don’t worry. You’ll have a great future here at the Elemental Tower as well. Keep it up!"

Li Wei: "..."

Afterward, Li Wei returned to his Demon Seed Research Room.

Hobbes reported his recent findings to him.

"We’ve used the Demon Tree to cultivate the first batch of Demon Seeds. We’re now conducting Demonization experiments with groups of ordinary animals, Low Tier Magical Beasts, and Mid Tier Magical Beasts to study the transformative process as the Demon Seed parasitizes its host."

"Currently, all the Demon Seeds have been implanted into the test subjects. We haven’t detected any signs of Demonization yet, but they are under further observation."

Li Wei said, "Be extremely careful. The power of a Magical Beast can skyrocket after Demonization, so we need to avoid any accidents."

Hobbes nodded quickly and replied, "Yes, of course. I understand."

"The Magical Beasts have all been separated and are being raised in individual Magic Hall spaces. Even if a beast shows signs of Demonization and goes berserk, we can stop it immediately."

"Good. Continue the research, and try to speed up the progress a bit. Subjecting the creatures already parasitized by the Demon Seed to some life-or-death stimuli can accelerate the seed’s growth process," Li Wei said.

Hobbes nodded. "Understood. I’ll make the arrangements right away."

When the host of a Demon Seed faces a life-or-death threat, the Demon Seed, for its own survival, will accelerate its incubation and growth to take over the host’s body.

This is the process of Demonization.

Li Wei had already learned this back when he was in Ice and Snow City.

He had spent over half a year in Ice and Snow City, observing many Demonized Creatures.

Unfortunately, he hadn’t been able to find a way to reverse Demonization.

Even if he knew someone had a Demon Seed inside them, he had no way to remove it.

The moment a Demon Seed enters a living being, it binds itself to the creature’s life force.

Forcibly removing the Demon Seed would cause the host to die instantly.

And there was no way to reverse Demonization.

All of this required further study in the Demon Seed Laboratory.

Li Wei went to find Fang Lide to ask when they would be going to collect the Sunshine.

He received a definitive answer: they would be heading to the Star Realm to collect the Sunshine on the night after tomorrow.

Fang Lide didn’t explain why it had to be at night.

And Li Wei didn’t ask.

All he needed to know was the specific time.

Fang Lide also promised to let him know before they departed.

Li Wei wanted to go to the Star Realm to collect the Sunshine personally.

At the same time, he also wanted to comprehend the Rules of Sunshine and the Sun to improve his Element Fusion Rules.

But that was only one of his goals.

Li Wei’s true objective was to observe the nuclear fusion reaction inside the Sun from up close, intending to advance his Element Fusion to the level of solar fusion.

That night, a bright light suddenly appeared on the distant horizon.

It was like a sun rising in the east.

But this was the middle of the night. Where would a sun come from?

The Elemental Tower’s outpost on the Ancient Battlefield sent a message, reporting that a world-shaking battle had broken out there.

The identities of the two warring parties were currently unknown.

However, judging from the sheer scale of the battle, the power of both combatants had already surpassed the Legendary Level.

It was very likely a battle between two Demigod Level Powerhouses.

Why would two Demigod Level Powerhouses break out into a fight in the Ancient Battlefield in the middle of the night?

The upper echelons of the Elemental Tower couldn’t figure it out either.

Their first thought was to find out exactly what was happening in the Ancient Battlefield.

Thus, they decided to send Legendary Mages to investigate the situation.

As a member of the Elemental Tower’s council, Li Wei was naturally qualified to hear this news as well.

He also attended the meeting.

When he heard they were sending people to the Ancient Battlefield to gather intelligence, an idea struck him, and he volunteered.

"In that case, we will have to trouble Mage Li Wei and Lord Wind Chaser to go to the Ancient Battlefield and investigate. Please be extremely careful."

Soon, the two of them were teleported to the outpost at the edge of the Ancient Battlefield.

The first person Li Wei saw when he stepped out of the Teleportation Array was someone who surprised him.

"Sean?"

Sean had been the instructor of the Magic Class Li Wei joined when he first entered the Elemental Tower.

Due to some past incidents, Sean had resigned from his teaching position at the Elemental Tower and chosen to serve at the dangerous outpost on the Ancient Battlefield.

Sean was also very surprised and shocked to see that Li Wei was among the newcomers.

He exclaimed, "Didn’t the Elemental Tower say two Legendary Mages were coming? Li Wei, why are you here? Where is the other Legendary Mage?"

Hearing this, Wind Chaser chuckled and said, "He *is* the other Legendary Mage."

Upon hearing this, Sean stared at Li Wei in utter disbelief.

"You’re a Legendary Mage now?"

Li Wei nodded.

Sean was about to ask something else when a violent tremor came from the distance.
