Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

The magical world is naturally extremely dangerous.

Wang Yi, a half-step transcendent, and Ren Tianque, a true transcendent, worked together to defeat a Bixi, both revealing their trump cards.

This is still based on the fact that Wang Yi's soul power is stronger than many senior extraordinary beings, and he possesses soul combat techniques. Ren Tianque is able to fuse two epic-grade attack magics, and his attack power far exceeds that of ordinary extraordinary beings.

It can be said that Wang Yi and Ren Tianque are not ordinary geniuses, let alone extraordinary ones.

Even so, it was still very difficult to deal with this super-tier Bixi.

If they encountered a horde of super-level magical beasts, or even sacred beasts, the outcome probably wouldn't be so satisfactory.

Of course, the area they are currently in is a relatively safe zone that Ren Tianque has spent five years exploring, and he knows about most of the dangerous areas in it.

As long as you don't leave this area, your safety can be relatively guaranteed.

But that's definitely impossible.

Both Wang Yi and Ren Tianque longed to return to the human world.

To successfully achieve this goal, it is necessary to find a new Star Gate and return through the interdimensional passage.

Living in seclusion, never able to go home.

Moreover, Lin Qingyu's true form might already be on his way, searching for Wang Yi throughout the magical world. If he were found, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The location of the bi-shaped stone tablet was not too far from where Wang Yi first entered the magical world, so Wang Yi did not plan to stay there for long, lest Lin Qingyu find out.

Even if Wang Yi and Ren Tianque were combined now, they probably wouldn't be a match for Lin Qingyu.

Therefore, at this moment, Wang Yi only had two paths to choose from.

First, he must quickly find a "realm" level interdimensional passage, abandon Ren Tianque, and return home. Second, he must become a transcendent mage as soon as possible to enhance his own strength and gain stronger leverage for self-protection.

The existence of a passage between the two worlds is something that can only be encountered by chance. Ren Tianque encountered one in five years, but who knows how many years it will take to encounter the next one?

And it must also meet the requirements.

Besides, now that he's teamed up with Ren Tianque, even if they stumble upon a 'realm' level interdimensional passage, Wang Yi probably wouldn't be able to abandon Ren Tianque and return alone.

Therefore, in Wang Yi's own plan, improving her strength is the top priority.

Once he becomes a true extraordinary mage, Wang Yi can absorb epic-grade active and passive magic at will, pushing his strength to its peak.

Therefore, in addition to delivering intelligence, Wang Yi also needed to ask the military for super-grade magic crystals upon his return, and in large quantities at that.

Without military support, once Wang Yi becomes a transcendent mage, he will have no choice but to go on adventures with Ren Tianque to hunt super-level magical beasts.

In short, Wang Yi's main purpose for this trip was to ask for money.

Of course, besides asking for money, Wang Yi would also make grand promises, such as sending information about the magical world in the future.

Secondly, Wang Yi also wanted to understand the meaning of the two terms "Power Extreme" and "Rules" in the Biji Magic Crystal, as these should be the key points for him to improve his strength after becoming extraordinary.

Right now, sitting right in front of me is a forbidden mage, a mage who has already found the forbidden path.

A golden opportunity has presented itself; how could it be ignored?

"The power of rules?"

Chu Zhaoding and Xu Jun exchanged a glance, both surprised.

Could it be that Wang Yi has already begun to master the power of forbidden magic?

This is countless times more shocking than Wang Yi successfully activating his soul power before becoming a transcendent being.

After pondering for a moment, Xu Jun couldn't help but ask.

"Where did you learn about the power of rules?"

After all, Wang Yi had previously said that he had encountered Ren Tianque in the magical world, and that Ren Tianque had already become an extraordinary being.

It would be easier to accept if the information came from Ren Tianque, since Ren Tianque is at least ten years older than Wang Yi.

Unfortunately, it was Wang Yi himself who found out about this, even though it was from the system's entry.

In terms of knowledge, Ren Tianque, who had been separated from China for five years, was far inferior to Wang Yi. He even learned the Soul Battle Technique from Wang Yi.

"After entering the magical world, by chance, I glimpsed a trace of the power of rules."

Wang Yi simply said this, because saying any more would expose the system.

"What aspect of the power of rules did you glimpse?" Chu Zhaoding followed up with another question.

Wang Yi frowned slightly, thinking of another new term besides the "Rules" term, and tentatively said:

"Extremely powerful?"

"Extreme strength?" Chu Zhaoding looked Wang Yi's secondary clone up and down, noting its current frail physique. Then, recalling Wang Yi's original body's violent and reckless fighting style and its physical body, which was even stronger than that of a magical beast, he immediately believed it.

"The rules regarding the limits of strength? Simple and easy to understand, and they do fit your situation."

Wang Yi scratched his head, not knowing why, but he had a feeling that he had been insulted by Commander Chu.

"The so-called power of rules is a power that forbidden mages of humanity possess nowadays." Xu Jun drank a cup of cold tea, calmed his mind, and began to answer Wang Yi's questions.

"It may sound a bit abstract, but you can think of the power of rules as the legendary 'Three Thousand Great Daos,' 'Infinite Laws,' 'Divine Authority,' and the like."

"This power is invisible and traceless, yet it seems to be the ultimate truth of the universe. Its application arises from the thought of the mind and does not require any additional consumption of magic or soul power. Its effects vary, so it is not necessarily suitable for combat."

"There aren't many forbidden mages in the human world right now; the total number is probably less than twenty, which means there are no more than twenty rules."

"Every forbidden mage is very well hidden, and the rules they comprehend are each person's trump card. So I don't know if any of these people have mastered the same rules, but I speculate that it is highly unlikely, because humans have never discovered two sacred beasts of the same kind."

"Yes, sacred beasts also possess the power of rules, but the power of rules for each of their clans is fixed. For example, the immortality of the Fire Phoenix clan's sacred beasts, the indestructibility of the Wood Dragon clan's sacred beasts, the immortality of the Black Gold Ancient Tree clan's sacred beasts, and the indestructibility of the Flame Cloud Qilin clan's sacred beasts, and so on."

"However, humans are not as bound by constraints as magical beasts. All rules are realized through their own enlightenment, and their potential is limitless. For example, the power of the rules I have mastered is the power of annihilation. You can feel it..."

After Xu Jun finished speaking, he extended a finger and used a trace of life-destroying power to slowly point at Wang Yi's arm.

However, Wang Yi's mind was buzzing at this moment, and he could no longer hear what Xu Jun said next.

Xu Jun's words kept echoing in Wang Yi's mind:

Sacred beasts also possess the power of rules, but they are limited by their race, so the same applies: the fire phoenix will never die, the wood dragon will never perish, the ancient tree will never decay, and the qilin will never be burned!

Undying—Nirvana! Immortal—The Core of the Ancient Tree! Unburnt—The Flame King!

Good heavens, passive magic!

Although Wang Yi had never seen the magic crystal of the wooden dragon, he figured that the wooden dragon must possess some kind of passive magic with an immortal effect.

Wang Yi had always felt that passive magic was a bit strange. After all, it didn't require consuming magic power and took effect immediately upon absorption, which seemed a bit too powerful and unreasonable.

However, Wang Yi had never been able to understand it before, nor had he thought about it deeply.

In this light, each passive spell may represent a power of rule rooted in the bloodline of magical beasts.

However, when a magical beast is weak, the power of the rules is also weak. Perhaps only after it becomes a super-level magical beast will the power of the rules begin to manifest.

Once the power of the rules is fully mastered, it will become a sacred beast.

Yes, that should be the case.

I understand now! I understand!

Wang Yi's lips curled up in a smile, her heart filled with joy.

Before Wang Yi could even feel excited, Xu Jun pointed his index finger at Wang Yi's arm.

The next moment, Wang Yi felt half of the life force within his body disappear instantly.

Suddenly everything went black, and he collapsed onto the table.

boom!
