Ancient Wizards: A Little Progress Every Day

Dago could sense the golden ladybug slowly draining his soul power.

However, the amount absorbed is very small, and because of the master-servant contract, he can stop this behavior at any time.

This looks like a way for the other person to recharge.

Dago didn't "disrupt" the other person's absorption, and instead felt relaxed.

Even simple communication of consciousness is exhausting, and he needs to rely on himself to "survive." Clearly, Arajan's soul has weakened to a very low level, which explains why he was willing to sign a master-servant contract.

Dago wasn't actually that opposed to the fact that there was an ancient old man's soul inside his body.

As the former leader of the ancient shamans, Arahant's experience and wisdom, aside from his magical and spiritual heritage, are also an immense treasure.

Now that the contract is signed, the initiative is entirely in Dago's hands. If he can figure out a way, the benefits he can "squeeze" out of Alazan might be much greater than he imagines.

"You can show respect overtly, but you still need to be wary of people behind the scenes."

"This ancient relic, who has lived for countless years, possesses a level of wisdom and cunning far beyond my reach."

The phrase "seeking help from a tiger" might not be an accurate description of Dago's current situation with Alazan.

But he never believed in free lunches. The more advantageous a situation was for him, the more cautious he needed to be.

After thinking calmly, Dago took out a paper bluebird from his spatial ring, gently rubbed it in his hand, and soon the paper bird "came to life" and transformed into a real bluebird, quickly flying out of the cave.

This was a communication tool that Undine gave him when he left the South, used to contact the wizards of the "Omnipotent Ring".

Now that things are settled in Evaque, Dago should prepare to head to the Elemental Ring.

He checked the map and found that he was actually quite close to the Emerald Kingdom Empire, but he didn't know exactly where the Omnipotent Ring was located in the Emerald Kingdom, and he didn't know how long it would take to get there if he traveled quickly.

The bluebird flies away and, after receiving a reply, will return to retrieve it.

The time required for this process varies depending on the length of the journey, and it is far less convenient and faster than using a communication stone. However, the advantage is that communication no longer needs to rely on a communication tower, and information can be delivered properly no matter where it is or how far away it is.

After sending the message, Dago reassessed his current situation.

The physical injuries have almost healed, but the life energy consumed has not been fully recovered.

The battle in the Spirit Realm proved that the idea of ​​using the [Spiral Palace] to strengthen the physical body was indeed feasible, and the effect even far exceeded Dago's original expectations.

Moreover, this is only the first layer of the snail palace. Theoretically speaking, the snail palace system obtained from the "comb-shaped magic snail" can be stacked infinitely.

[Single-layered spiral palace], [Double-layered spiral palace], [Ten-layered spiral palace], [One hundred-layered spiral palace], and even [Ten thousand-layered spiral palace]!

The Magic Snail Maze, with no end in sight!

As his strength grows, Dago now needs to learn more and more skills, both those displayed on his character panel and those not shown on it.

Time is precious, and as he calmed himself to prepare for his cultivation, his mind was involuntarily drawn to the black dandelion that had arrived with Arajan in the center of the gray sun in his spiritual space.

After hesitating, Dago finally succumbed to his intense curiosity and couldn't help but gently touch it with his consciousness.

A black petal fell from a dandelion.

In an instant, Dago's consciousness was quickly "absorbed" into the petal.

"Dago!"

"Dago!"

Hearing a series of clear children's voices calling his name, Dago struggled to open his eyes.

The warm sunlight shone directly on his face, making the light particularly dazzling.

"He's awake! He's awake!!"

"That scared me to death! I thought this guy was dead!"

"What an idiot, falling off the haystack and landing headfirst."

Amidst cheers and jeers tinged with disdain and mockery, Dago finally got a clear look at his surroundings.

He was lying on a straw mat made of a pile of wheat straw, surrounded by dirty, malnourished, and tender faces.

A small face covered in red freckles was very close to him, and thick yellow snot hanging from its nose was almost falling onto his nose.

Dago suddenly stood up, and the action brought back feelings of extreme discomfort and weakness.

Soon, he was shocked to discover that he had "shrunk" back to the body of a child.

Her hands and feet were very thin, and she looked to be only six or seven years old at most.

"Damn it!"

Dago's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

"Arazan!"

He gritted his teeth and uttered a name.

His sudden "rebirth" into a six- or seven-year-old child is obviously the work of Arajan.

Before he lost consciousness, he had only tried to touch the black dandelion flower that Arajan had left in his consciousness, a flower representing the inheritance of souls.

He thought he had been careful enough when facing Arahan, but he still fell into his trap!

"What is this guy saying? Did he break his brain?"

"Oh! Little Dago from the pig farmer's family has broken his brain! Little Dago from the pig farmer's family has broken his brain!"

"Looks like we'll have to call him 'Dago the Fool' from now on!"

"Dago the Fool!"

The children who had formed a circle around Dago saw his strange behavior and all showed gloating expressions. They laughed and joked around him for a while, and then ran happily away into the distance.

It was as if they couldn't wait to pass the message on to everyone.

Only one person remained.

It was the freckled child who had almost dripped snot onto Dago's face earlier. When she spoke, Dago realized that this sallow-faced, thin girl with a messy head of golden, unkempt hair was actually a girl.

"Rodago, are you really stupid from the fall?"

The freckled girl reached out to touch Dago's head with a worried look on her face, but Dago quickly dodged her hand and immediately burst into tears.

"Wow—Gina's going to marry a fool!"

"Gina doesn't want to be the bride of a stupid pig farmer!"

Dago tried to calm the girl down, but she cried even harder and avoided him as if he were a plague.

Dago simply ignored her and, clutching his throbbing head, walked away with a sullen face.
