Wizard Immortal

Chapter 940 Deep Waters

"Purple Maiden."

Adir's face remained calm, many thoughts flashing through his mind, but he maintained the same expression as before, showing no sign of anything unusual.

Before him stood a young man who appeared to be a high priest. Madel looked at him respectfully and earnestly answered his questions.

Clearly, he was unaware that he had inadvertently revealed all his secrets, and was now staring intently at Adir, afraid that he might accidentally offend him.

Before him, Adir hesitated for a moment, then looked at Madel, who was standing respectfully with a nervous expression, and couldn't help but smile: "Thank you for your trouble."

"I've come from afar and haven't eaten in a long time. Could I please borrow a meal from you?"

His expression was calm as he spoke softly.

"Of course, of course."

Madel nodded repeatedly without hesitation: "It is our honor that you are willing to dine here, sir."

"Please rest for a moment, we'll go and make preparations right away."

He spoke respectfully to Adir in a low voice, then turned and left to prepare.

A short while later, around noon, a decent lunch, though not lavish, was served.

Lunch consisted of some local wild vegetables, plenty of fresh fish, and some game meat.

It wasn't a lavish feast, but for Mader and the others, it was the best they could offer.

Adir smiled, accepted his lunch without hesitation, and then softly said, "Thank you."

"In return, I'll give you this."

He spoke softly, then took something out of his pocket.

It was a silver gemstone, which looked very beautiful and seemed to contain some kind of unique power, with a special pulsation.

This is a crystallization of Adir's power. The power within is not much, but it is enough to temporarily form a spell, giving a person power comparable to that of a formal wizard.

Of course, this is in this world.

In other worlds, the power contained within this crystal alone would be enough to destroy several great worlds.

Mader was unaware of this, but that did not prevent him from recognizing the gem before him.

Leaving aside the unique power it contains, its unique shape alone is enough to make it priceless, easily exchangeable for a large fortune from nobles.

Mader accepted the gift respectfully, repeatedly thanking Adir and offering his sincere blessings.

Adir responded with a smile, said nothing more, and left directly.

He refused Mader's offer to send someone to greet him, and instead randomly chose a direction, heading directly towards the outside world according to Mader's memory.

Soon, he arrived at the nearest bustling city and wandered around it at his leisure.

A quiet hall.

The surroundings felt very empty, yet at the same time, there was a unique sense of oppression.

"So this is the temple."

As Adir strolled through the area, he looked around at the scenery with a hint of surprise.

The temple before us is the only one in the city, and it is guarded by several priests who are said to possess formidable power.

Therefore, Adir made a special trip to this place to investigate.

However, the results of the investigation surprised him somewhat.

The place before us looked exceptionally magnificent, with everything around it incredibly luxurious, decorated with the most exquisite materials.

And within it, a unique power shrouds this place.

This power is not ordinary energy particles, nor is it divine power, elemental power, or any other kind of power.

The power before us has transcended mere energy and extended to a higher level; it is the power of true spirit and even the power of laws, mixed with a trace of conceptual power.

Even though it was only a trace, it was enough to surprise Adir.

The power of concepts is a power that only those who have reached the eighth rank and are truly at the pinnacle of the eighth rank can grasp.

This unique power, even if only a trace of it exists, is something that ordinary people could never master.

The people in this temple at this moment were just ordinary people, not at all remarkable figures.

The priests who supposedly possessed mysterious powers did indeed have their own special abilities, but in Adir's view, they were at most just physically stronger than ordinary people, thus able to exert more power.

As for the others, they're nothing special.

"Are all the so-called churches in this world like this?"

Looking at the temple before him, Adir's expression turned solemn, and at that moment, this thought flashed through his mind.

He felt that the fog before him had thickened even further.

Adir originally came to this world only to explore the secrets of the World Tree, in order to find the way and secrets to transcendence.

However, unintentionally, traces of Zi Nu in this world were discovered, leading to this discovery.

Layer upon layer, unfolding before our eyes, making this world seem even more mysterious.

Feeling the weight of his discoveries, Adir stood there for a very long time before turning around and silently leaving.

Before leaving, he found the priests and searched their memories.

Compared to Mader, an ordinary person, these priests, though also ordinary people in Adir's eyes, were still considered insiders of the church and knew far more information than Mader.

Through them, Adir also learned more information.

such as

"Power is not something one cultivates oneself, but rather something bestowed upon one by others."

Recalling the memories in his mind, Adir frowned: "Originating from bloodline, and also from inheritance?"

From the memories of these priests, Adir learned about the two main ways to acquire power in this world.

The first method, of course, relies on bloodlines.

As long as one possesses the bloodline of a saint, one will naturally have power that transcends that of ordinary people. The most powerful among them can even easily destroy the heavens and the earth, reaching a level that is unimaginable to ordinary people.

Another form is when it is given by others.

Divine artifacts, or divine children with sufficiently strong bloodlines, can also bestow a portion of their power upon others through special rituals, thus baptizing them.

The priests before us obtained their extraordinary power in this way.

Of course, regardless of the method, in Adir's view, the way they obtained power was essentially through bestowal, rather than through their own cultivation.

Whether relying on bloodline or divine artifacts, the most fundamental element is the power of that original saint.

Therefore, in this world, the fundamental way to obtain extraordinary power is to get involved with those saints.

If you can't do that, then no matter how hard you try, you'll just end up being an ordinary person.

This is an incredibly cruel truth.

But there was nothing that could be done.

Given the severity of the suppression in this world, even a fourth-tier being wouldn't be much stronger than an ordinary person.

In this situation, it would be far too demanding to expect to gain extraordinary power on one's own; frankly, it would be an unrealistic endeavor.

If those so-called saints are all like Zi Nu, then that would be extremely terrifying.

Zi Nu's strength is probably comparable to that of Adir at this moment; the two are of similar strength.

The saints who have appeared in this world in the past are far more than just one or two.

If these are all past supreme beings, then the waters of this world are far too deep, almost bottomless.

Thinking of this, Adir rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

With his current strength, as long as he doesn't involve the strongest experts, most things will not be hindered and can be completed smoothly.

But once it involves the strongest person, things become complicated; at the very least, they won't go as smoothly as they originally did.

And now, that is clearly the case.

Moreover, judging from this, if Adir's conjecture is correct, the world involves more than just one or two supreme beings.

Adir shook his head inwardly, then continued his search.

He was searching, searching for the names of past saints.

In the Boundary Sea, he searched for past ruins and fragments, gaining knowledge of many of the strongest figures of the past, or at least knowing something about them.

If those supreme beings who left traces in the Boundary Sea had truly come to this world, then they must have left some traces.

With this thought in mind, Adir began to think seriously, searching through the memories of the people in front of him.

Under his search, some familiar names immediately came to mind.

Zi Nu, the Primordial Queen, Queen of Gods, Ancestor of Wizards, Goddess of Fate

Names immediately came to mind.

Of course, some of them don't have these names in this world; they have other names.

It was only based on some of their past deeds and records that Adir deduced this.

These are all the strongest beings that Adir can confirm have ever appeared in this world.

As for the uncertainties, there are even more.

From the memories of these priests, Adir learned that at least dozens of saints had descended upon this world throughout history, leaving their mark on it.

Standing there, reflecting on everything, Adir's lips twitched; he was at a loss for words.

He was very familiar with many of the names mentioned above.

Among them, Zi Nu and the Primordial King both come from the Primordial World. One is a mysterious woman who controls the power of destiny, and the other is a legendary figure who created the path of bloodlines and established the status of the progenitor of bloodlines.

The Ancestor of Wizards is the legendary progenitor of the wizarding world, the supreme being who created the wizarding system and the wizarding world.

The King of Gods is the most powerful god-king in the legends of the world of gods.

The god of fate seems to be connected to the world of fate that Adir once entered.
