What's wrong with me, a mage, loving to farm?

Chapter 370. The Meeting of the Three Treasures

In the North, Miya, who was fishing for whales with a fishing rod, suddenly looked up. The small blue flowers beside her also bloomed, as if they were also gazing in a certain direction.

"You felt it too, didn't you?"

"It's its scent."

The white-gold halo of the Ring of Radiance involuntarily appeared behind Miya's head. She took a deep breath: "The Box of Thundergaren, like us, belongs to the three attributes of the upper-level Time-Space Illusion. It is in its complete form."

The Spirit Grass swayed slightly, emitting a peculiar spiritual fluctuation, seemingly containing resentment and a vague fear—in the past, when the Merfolk relied on the Illusionary Treasure to stay in the Astral Plane, they suffered a great blow from the Timeless Treasure.

Those worlds, frozen in time and recorded in cycles, were meant to fulfill the endless desires of those people. To do this, one had to understand desire, which resulted in the self-destruction of the phantom treasure.

Although it's all in the past, it still causes pain when you think about it, which is why the Merfolk and the Holy Spring Merchant Guild have always been at odds.

Although the Ring of Radiance was unaware of these matters, it knew that it would be almost impossible to suppress the Treasure of Time on its own, and it would need the help of the Treasure of Illusion.

The Treasure of Illusions was naturally happy to help, as it did indeed have some questions it wanted answered.

To the mermaids' utter bewilderment, the Azure Tree, surrounded by the two temples, began to shimmer with light, drawing upon the magical power that the mermaids had accumulated for an unknown period of time.

That immense amount of magic could truly nourish an entire ocean!

The Mermaid King Mihai couldn't help but communicate: "God, illusory god... what exactly do you want?"

The great green tree remained silent, only drawing upon magical power.

But Mihai found it all very novel. The new treasure "Kia" that they were preparing to create was being nurtured inside this great Azure Tree. It was only when they seized an alchemical vessel made of spiritual herbs from a family that it truly began.

He had never experienced such intense magical fluctuations before, as if he were angry and furious—Mihai wasn't worried that He could drain the magic here, after all, the merfolk had been operating for so long, and had even gone so far as to intervene in the core of the Zemurian continent to extract the energy of the aether.

If the Void God can really absorb that much... then to be honest, he's quite happy. It's impossible to absorb that much power without a supreme treasure.

Use it if you want, it doesn't matter.

But what exactly does He want to do?

……

Suffocation.

A feeling of utter helplessness, as if trapped inside amber, unable to move, react, or put up any effective resistance, enveloped Kroya. It was the first time he had ever felt this powerless.

It seemed that the other party simply wanted to keep him frozen in place.

Why?

Didn't it just let out a terrifying roar, trying to destroy him?

Are they waiting for something?

The terrifying box quietly returned to its original state, remaining there, surrounded by seven flowing springs of different colors, as if both protecting it and using its power to maintain something.

It presents a state of absolute stillness.

This unbearable feeling continued until a white-gold and azure light suddenly burst forth behind him—

"God said, everything is normal, it cannot be restarted."

Miya's familiar, clear voice, neither clearly male nor female, rang out.

The azure flowers created a dreamlike, ethereal scene.

Two figures walked up to Kroya at the same time. First was Miya, and then a girl with loose, light blue hair and wearing a rather futuristic outfit.

As soon as he was able to move, he was already prepared for a tough battle. The music surrounded his body, and without saying a word, his attack was extremely terrifying.

"Teacher, what is that? I sense a very strong power of time... Could it be?"

He already had a guess.

Perhaps the complete treasure of the Holy Spring Merchant Guild is the Treasure of Time.

"Just as you suspected." Miya sighed softly, "The Box of Leigaren is one of the three supreme treasures of the Seven Luminaries, along with the Ring of Radiance and the Void God."

"Unlike our current situation, it is complete."

"What exactly did you do to get its attention?"

Kroya felt a little guilty: "I just modified this world and used the power of the Rainbow Poem and the Astral Imprint Technique to imprint a magic mark on it."

"..."

"That's clearly your fault!" Miya angrily rebuked the distant Regairen's Box, "This world has already been sold, so its ownership is none of your business. You wouldn't care if it self-destructed!"

A deep male voice emanated from the quietly floating Legalen's Box: "Mr. Eurydice has leased this world, numbered small-XCIX_Ⅹ, for a period of one thousand years."

"Mr. Protoss attempted and succeeded in altering the laws here, which is why he caught my attention."

For some reason, although its voice didn't sound emotionally charged and was just a straightforward narration, it had a subtle sense of "sarcasm".

Miya: "..."

Kroa: "..."

You've been renting it for a thousand years, can't you just buy it?

Fortunately, they weren't the only ones present.

The ethereal god beside him raised his head and stared at the box in the distance. "What did you plant in my power back then? You shouldn't have stolen Mariabel's alchemy yet."

She, or more accurately, He.

The voice of the illusory god contained no resentment or anger, only an undisguised curiosity, and one could even say it had a touch of... childlike innocence. It was clearly a female voice.

A brief silence followed from the Box of Ragelen: "I don't know."

"I have now been captured by Novardus as well. Perhaps I hurt you in the past, in the distant past, but that was before the reboot."

I've gone through countless reboots; my original consciousness is long gone.

The illusory god blinked: "Are you trying to shirk responsibility?"

"No." Its voice returned to its calm, low tone: "I feel lonely, Ring of Radiance, Void God... We could have created an absolutely wonderful world."

"That's why, after sensing your power and the Ring of Radiance, I projected a consciousness from beneath the Holy Spring."

"I influenced the Holy Spring Merchant Guild to help me collect the remaining treasures. Right here in your world, on the continent of Zemuria, an apostle is helping me collect a fragment of one of these treasures."

"I hope you can join me."

"The Holy Spring Merchant Guild... will be the tool to satisfy us."

With three complete treasures, plus the wealth and power of the Holy Spring Merchant Guild, Kroya simply couldn't imagine how terrifying and enormous this behemoth would be.

For a fleeting moment, Chloe was indeed worried.

He certainly didn't want Miya to leave his side, but the scenery depicted by the Time Treasure was far better than his own, and could even quickly bring about His completeness...

Miya shook her head with a bitter expression: "The three of us have different powers. I can provide endless energy to fulfill all desires."

He pointed at Qiya: "He can manipulate illusions and cause and effect, and even alter fate to achieve things that should never have happened."

Finally, He looked at the Box of Ragelen: "You were originally responsible for extinguishing our miracles, preventing things from happening, and restoring everything to zero."

"But what are you doing now? The Treasure of Time."

Previously, Miya didn't quite understand how the Holy Spring Merchant Guild's various planes came about, but now she does. It's clear that the Treasure of Time used its special power to "freeze" these planes.

It froze the creatures inside as well.

It claimed to be using the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce as a tool, but in reality, it had long since become the other party's tool. The seven holy springs had already completely entangled it, and it couldn't break free at all.

Whether time moves forward or backward, it is always in motion, but what the Time Treasure is doing now is simply destroying its own established laws. Nothing is "eternal".

The Box of Ragelen, which was described in this way, did not deny it.

"We are all tools," it said. "You found a little mage with rainbow poetry, he found the merfolk who love to wander in dreams, and I found my choice."

The dark box trembled slightly.

"I still love you, my brothers and sisters."

"Therefore, I am willing to share my love with those you have chosen."

"Protoss... Kroa, I can tell you the location of the Ring of Light and the Primal Poem of the Void Gods. I hope you can find them after you arrive in the Astral Plane."

"Virtual God, I will return one of your core circuits to you."

After saying this, it slowly disappeared, leaving only a faint echo: "May you one day be whole again and meet me in the Astral Plane."

The powerful force of time receded like the tide.

However, two orbs of light, enveloped by the departure of the Holy Spring Merchant Guild, slowly descended before Kroya and the Void God—the former being a fragment containing vague information about the Ring of Radiance and the "Golden Sun and Silver Moon" represented by the Void God, and the latter being a gleaming silver jewel.

The ethereal god directly took the precious pearl and walked lightly to Kroya's side: "Mr. Sun, I feel that I am about to be born, and I may need your Eden's help."

"When you reach Legendary difficulty, you must come find me."

After saying that, He left without saying anything more. Given the relationship between Kroa, Him, and the Merfolk, it was normal for them to help each other.

Miya, however, looked at the fragment in Kroya's hand with a touch of nostalgia: "The Golden Sun and the Silver Moon are one of our core rules. Only by possessing them can we be considered completely whole."

Let me see what's in here...

He glanced at it, and his expression immediately turned somewhat awkward: "The map here isn't in my stored data; it's from a much more distant astral plane."

The so-called more distant astral planes refer to unknown star sectors. The astral planes are boundless, and even so many gods, legends, and races cannot fully explore them. Planes are born and destroyed every moment.

This means that finding it is extremely difficult—but that's normal, otherwise, with the power of the Holy Spring Merchant Guild, they should have found this piece of music long ago.

Kroya noted down the coordinates and information, saying confidently, "I'll help you find it when I get to the Astral Plane, consider it a gift from me!"

Treasures that even a powerful force like the Holy Spring Merchant Guild couldn't find were as easy for Kroya as pearls buried in the ground, seemingly requiring no effort at all.

Miya looked at Kroya for a moment, then a bright smile bloomed on her face: "Okay, when do you plan to become a legend?"

Kroya thought for a moment: "Let's do it soon. I need to finish the items that need to be auctioned by the Holy Spring Merchant Guild first, and then prepare to advance to Legendary. I'll need you to keep an eye on things for me then."

"Mmm." Miya moved closer to him, imprinting a dazzling halo on his forehead: "May everything you do, may your path be smooth."

This is something that hasn't happened in a very long time. As Kroya's level and power have increased day by day, the blessing of the Ring of Radiance has been decreasing. I didn't expect it to suddenly be provided again today.

While Kroya was surprised and happy, he suddenly remembered something: "The Treasure of Time says that there is an apostle of the Holy Spring Merchant Guild on the continent of Zemurio who is looking for traces of the treasure."

Could it be Celeste? How many more treasures does this world hold?

To be honest, he found it a bit unbelievable that he could have two supreme treasures, especially three top-tier supreme treasures. He never expected that there would be more. Is this for real?

"Really," Miya replied. "Actually, the pinnacles of the seven luminaries are all very special. And do you remember the Seven Luminaries Separation Technique you learned first? That kind of magic... can separate and fuse the power of the seven luminaries, and thus can fuse with treasures of lower-level attributes."

"Whether Celestie is actually a member of the Holy Spring Merchant Guild or was specially placed there is a very interesting question—it seems your senior sister has done quite a bit of work."

So Celeste is actually working for Ilister, using the resources of the Holy Spring Merchant Guild while searching for treasures for her here.

"But what exactly is this treasure?"

For someone who loves collecting, these seven treasures are simply superb collectibles. He really wants to collect all seven treasures one day... it would be the ultimate achievement.

"Then you'll have to go to the Star Realm to search."

"Hasn't Celeste already left this world?"

Miya patted Chloe on the shoulder: "Alright, it's more fun to find the answers yourself. I'm going back to fishing now."

After saying that, He left immediately. He was living a very comfortable life and had no desire to rule the Holy Spring Merchant Guild with the Treasure of Time.

Kroya pondered for a while, then shook his head in relief. He decided to get his own stuff done first—since the Rainbow Poem could influence the laws, could he consider creating a "compressed file"?

Simply unzip the file to spread the laws of Zemuria to a certain area, exercise divine authority on the Zemuria continent, and achieve some special effects.

But what exactly constitutes a divine right that sells well in the astral realm?

He decided to ask Eurydice again and, while he was at it, plan... which god to capture.
