Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy

Chapter 783: Chapter 699 Bottomless Moon Cave_2

“Brother Ivan, hahaha, I knew with your capability, you would eventually become one of us. Good job, faster than I expected.”

Cambard still looked the same, eyes like stars, hair like thunder, subtly accompanied by wind and fire, seeming like a hearty uncle full of stories.

The last time the two met, Ivan was on his way to the Elf Plane and Song Praise Plane, then he was only a Level 5 Ancient King.

It was also in this ‘Xi Palace’ main building that he exchanged a large amount of information about achieving the throne from Cambard, though he almost emptied his own possessions at the time.

“Brother Ivan, what do you need this time? You really suit my taste, I will try to offer you some discounts within the range of regulations.” After some reminiscing, Cambard asked.

“I need to think about it, Xi Palace’s stuff isn’t cheap.”

“Haha, no rush, no rush.”

Ivan’s words suddenly paused, unlike last time upgrading to the throne, this time he didn’t need knowledge about the Supreme realm, nor was he lacking in other areas.

After careful consideration, what he lacked were mainly two points: one related to the legacy of wisdom, the other concerning the Fang Yu Map.

But considering his unfamiliarity with Xi Palace and the importance of these two points, he couldn’t help but feel anxious, keeping an extra eye open while being abroad is always wise.

“Already thought it through?” After a moment, Cambard laughed.

“I can’t keep holding up your valuable time, I have two requests: I need to purchase detailed information about Moon Lake Forest, and also a varying number of plane star markers, how about that?”

“The first request is simple, the second one—-”

“Any amount is fine, I understand plane star markers tend to expire.”

“Then the issue is simple too, do you need to consult anything else?”

“Next time.”

Plane star markers are actually a type of plane coordinates, corresponding to something deep within a plane, through which to anchor the constantly moving position of a plane.

Due to planes having their own defense, this type of star markers also expires over time.

Ivan has been expanding the Black Star Legion, connecting more planes, thus plane star markers are naturally welcomed.

Considering his current status, it’s just two small deals, easily settled with high currency condensed from Rule Power, cost-effective.

“The foundation of Moon Lake Forest is actually this, truly unexpected.”

Soon after, Ivan left the Xi Palace main building, yet information about Moon Lake Forest still lingered in his mind.

Xi Palace had conducted in-depth research on Moon Lake Forest, discovering that it belongs to one or more star networks hidden within a secret realm, and for some unknown reason, these star networks were solidified by moonlight, exposing them directly.

In simple terms, it’s actually a form of ‘moon transformation’.

In other words, Moon Lake Forest is not only related to the Chaotic World but also intricately linked to the secret realm, coupled with that mysterious fallen object, the complexity within Moon Lake Forest can be imagined.

“Sorcerer Ivan, you came out so quickly.”

“What about you guys, didn’t you buy anything?”

“No, we don’t lack anything.”

On the way back, Ivan bumped into Jenny and Sea Mother who were leisurely walking outside.

These two seemed more like they were taking a casual stroll, and Jenny was right, being from the core lineage, they were indeed quite well-off, no matter which aspect you considered.

The three leisurely left the floating warship.

At this moment, at the window at the top of Xi Palace’s main building stood a thin old man, constantly watching the people below, observing everything thoroughly.

Yet no one noticed this, not even some Supremes.

…

Time flew by.

The creatures around Moon Lake Forest gathered more and more, and the Xi Palace Chamber of Commerce hadn’t left, seemingly preparing to take a share or maybe wait for others to make gains before opportunistically trading.

That day, the water in Moon Lake finally receded, and thick white smoke billowed from the mouth of the lake, resembling some sort of miasma.

“What’s the plan?”

“This exploration is the first, everyone acts independently, each pick a path and try your luck.”

“No problem.”

On Earth, the Dark Night Mother Goddess simply decided on the exploration strategy this time, to try your luck first.

Everyone present had no objections, nor feared any danger, even the weakest here was a throne occupier, it wouldn’t be easy for problems to arise.

The actions commenced promptly.

Like others, Ivan’s group each found a spot and flew into it against the dense smoke.

The smoke was more realistic as water vapor evaporation, containing poison, but nothing that could harm any prepared throne holder, behind the smoke was another layer of thick moonlight, almost solidified, firmly blocking on Crescent Lake’s surface.

This was equally no challenge for a throne holder.

After passing these two stages, the view below cleared abruptly, the vast Moon Lake unfolded clearly, at a glance, entirely a bottomless pit, no matter how one looked couldn’t see an end.

The crystal trees appeared more like pillars within the cave, as if how deep the moon cave was, how long the crystal trees extended.

Between the crystal trees, drifting smoke mixed with sparse special aura could be seen, if Ivan hadn’t mistaken, it was chaos aura.

“Chaotic aura is untouchable.”

He descended slowly along the moon cave, avoiding the smoke mixing chaotic aura from afar, quickly realizing the frequency of chaotic aura appeared more often than recorded data.

“Could that fallen object originate from the Chaotic World? Given this, more would covet it, which isn’t a good thing.”

It was widely known, the Chaotic World was deeper and more mysterious than the Star Realm, only the ancestors qualified to explore, ancestors also attempted to pursue greater power from the Chaotic World.

If an item from the Chaotic World had fallen here, it would surely draw the attention of ancestors.

Ivan slightly shook his head, thinking too much was futile, best to avoid that object himself.

Moon Lake Forest was not without treasures, quite the contrary, such extreme realms often produced various artifacts.

But along his descent, aside from crystal trees nothing else was found, rather normal, any formed treasures needed time, the surrounding items were long collected by others, hardly his turn to gather.

After a while, he chose a fork entrance, entering the neighboring passage.

“Same as what they said, these passages are almost identical.”

Soon, this passage became indistinguishable from the previous main path, without encountering any ferocious beasts or other dangers, the whole process seemed dull.

“Like the star networks in the secret realm, all possess a kind of power to obscure space.”

“Could this whole place be the star network completely laid out?”

Ivan didn’t consider it boring, observing the surroundings along the way with great interest, maintaining an unwavering pace.

Two days later, thick smoke emerged from below, he knew the lake water was rising back, quickly transforming into a rainbow light, hastily returning along the way traced before, immediately leaving thick smoke far behind.

After a mad dash, within a few hours, he burst out of Crescent Lake’s mouth, landing back on Earth.

He unexpectedly found himself to be the first one to return.

“Sorcerer Ivan, quite fast!”

“Haha, I moved slowly to research the surroundings.”

The next returnee was the Golden Wutong Throne, like a blaze streaking back to the deck.

According to Ivan’s understanding, the Golden Wutong Throne also held another identity, that was the Wuyang Supreme’s partner, the two had been companions for many years.

Not long after, Sea Mother and others returned one by one to Earth, the last to arrive was the recently crowned Jenny.

“What’s going on? Where’s Lilabet, why’s she slower than us?”

“I don’t know, I didn’t see the Dark Night Mother Goddess when returning.”

But still one person hadn’t appeared, the lake water had risen yet no one in sight, causing their hearts to grow anxious.
