The Lord of Ashes

"If possible, I hope that when the war breaks out in the future, we will not embarrass the green-beaked tree." Thain suddenly said with a sigh.

This should be the first time that Thain has made a similar exclamation.

It is hard to imagine that a magician who was born in the city of Mensobra in the underground world, a magician who has experienced several plane wars.

He would say such a thing about caring about creatures from another world.

This is actually the real “person”!

Thain is not a simple killing machine. The more things he experiences, the more Thain will sigh and gain more insights.

Many demigod-level knights or magicians in the Wizarding World will start traveling within the Wizarding Alliance after reaching a breakthrough bottleneck.

The entire Wizarding Alliance, with hundreds of thousands of planes or worlds, can be used as a place for them to travel.

In this journey of growth, some people will call this process "crossing the long path to godhood", which is used to distinguish fourth-level creatures from creatures below fourth level.

There are also some more emotional people who call it the "path of asking the heart" to pursue the true heart.

All in all, the leap from level three to level four is a very mysterious and special process.

This is not just the case with wizard civilization, I believe this is also the case with other world civilizations.

Level four creatures are god-level life forms that are born from the rules, luck, resources, and benefits of an entire plane.

Even the fifth-level creature in the world of poisonous green flames, Poison Flame Demon King Anruida, is such a selfish and extremely twisted evil creature, its past is not simple.

Hearing his apprentice's sigh, Lu Lianman, who was parasitic on Thain, fell silent and made no comment.

In fact, when Lu Lianman crossed from the third level to the fourth level, she also traveled to many planes of the vast Wizards Alliance and made a sigh similar to Thain.

Everyone's perception is different. Thain's path should be taken by himself. There is no need for Lu Lianman to force his own perception.

However, hearing that someone like Thain, who has lived in the laboratory for such a long time and is obsessed with magic research, can utter such a sigh about human nature.

Lu Lianman was still very pleased.

After a long time, Lu Lianman asked: "Sean, what do you think the meaning of magic is?"

"It is a tool, a means to help us explore the truth in the star world." Thain replied after thinking for a moment.

Lu Lianman seemed to acknowledge it with a soft "hmm", but didn't say much.

He just mentioned: "You can go back and rethink this issue when you advance to level four or a higher realm."

"Maybe there will be different feelings." Lu Lianman said.

"Teacher, what do you think the meaning of magic is?" Thain couldn't help asking.

"Me, I think the true meaning of magic lies in the analysis of life energy."

"The boundless star realm, billions of planes, the power of life runs through the beginning and end. Your mentor, I am a scholar who has embarked on the path of plants and life. Magic is the product of my exploration of the true meaning of life." Lu Lianman replied.

Lu Lianman's answer seemed more specific, but also more profound and obscure.

Thain frowned slightly and said nothing for a long time.

The master and apprentice continued to fly toward the east of the Biran Forest World. Their journey in this low-level plane was still long.

…

Two years later.

Thane arrived at a medium-sized city in the Biran Forest World called Blackstone City.

The Biran Forest World is extremely rich in species, both in species type and quantity, at least much more than in the Green Leaf World.

Including the Purple Flame Soul World and Luo Lei World, which Thain once participated in the war, they are far inferior to the Biran Forest World.

The strength of the first two low-level planes is obviously greater than that of the Biran Forest World, which only has one fourth-level creature.

The reason why species richness is so different is probably because this is a plant-based plane, and the plane itself tends to be diversified.

Black Rock City is a city made entirely of jet black obsidian.

Obsidian is a relatively common mountain rock in the central and southern areas of the main continent of Biran Forest World.

It is not very hard and highly malleable, but after adding some kind of plant juice as a binder, the whole becomes very strong and is often used as a raw material for building cities.

This Black Stone City was built by the "Black Ladybugs", a family of indigenous creatures in the Biran Forest World. In addition to more than 300,000 black ladybugs living in the city, there are also many different types of plants or other creatures. .

Thain, who looks like an elf, has lived a very nourishing life in the wild world of Biran Forest for the past two years.

It may be that the elves really have a natural affinity for plant-based creatures, or it may be that Lu Lianman unleashed some method.

In short, not only did Thain not have a single battle, it did not break out in the wild world of Biran Forest. Instead, he made many "friends" like the Green Beak Tree.

Blackstone City is also a quiet and peaceful city.

Thain cited the "phosphorus stone disease" caused by many black ladybugs in the city as the reason.

Gained the friendship of the Black Ladybug clan in this city.

The so-called phospholithiasis is actually a phenomenon of stones outside the body.

Because of the black ladybug clan, there is a traditional custom of eating dirt at specific times.

As a result, many black ladybugs will inexplicably produce a kind of gray pebbles on their carapace.

In Thain's opinion, this is the result of the weak internal organ function of some black ladybugs, which can be solved by eating specific plants and flowers as a neutralizer.

But this is the trouble that has troubled the Black Ladybug clan for hundreds of years. It has only been a few hundred years since they migrated here and established Black Rock City.

"The place you mentioned is in Lord Mu Rong's territory."

"With the token provided by our Black Ladybug, you should be able to enter the Forest of Huohuo." The leader of the Black Ladybug said respectfully to Thain.

The black ladybug leader in front of him has a second level of life.

It's just that it has aged badly and probably doesn't have a few more years to live.

In addition to helping the black ladybug clan solve their troubles, Thain also treated the black ladybug clan leader for some minor illnesses and gave it a potion made from the juice of native plants in the Biran Forest World.

In return, the Black Ladybug clan not only gave Thane a lot of special resources produced near Black Rock City.

He was also given a token for entering the Forest of Huohuo - a black ladybug's back shell, which even had a hint of the vague aura of a demigod-level creature.

With this token in hand, Thane can easily enter and exit the Forest of Huohuo.

Holding this black piece of armor in his hand, Thain looked at it twice without saying much.

In two years, Thain has planted three node weakeners in the Biran Forest World.

In fact, there were five nodes in his path, and the other two nodes were eventually abandoned because they were too close to the demigod-level creatures in this plane.

After thinking for a long time, Thain and Lu Lianman gave up the more risky approach.

The same is true for this Forest of Huohuo.

Anyway, they have plenty of time.

Walking in Blackstone City, Thane did not leave this city of indigenous creatures immediately.

The black ladybugs walking around all greeted Thain respectfully.

Some creatures from the Biran Forest World coming from further areas brought some surprising news.

"Have you heard? There is an all-out war between the Core Birch Forest and the Yuanye Forest in the north."

Two birds-like creatures with yellowish feathers, carrying some tree seeds, plant fruits and other items on their backs, hurried past Thain.
