Chapter 586: Barren Dimension?

In the quiet room, Merlin gently took out the precious dimension map which he had just obtained. This map cost five hundred thousand elemental crystal stones. Although with Merlin’s financial resources, five hundred thousand elemental crystal stones were not much, it still slightly hurt.

Looking at the areas marked on the dimension map, Merlin also felt his eye brightened. These territories were all clearly marked, and the “common map” he bought before this had no such thing.

According to the coordinates of the dimension, Merlin found a blank area in the bottom left corner of the dimension map. Obviously, the Great Wizards who drew this dimension map had not entered that place before but there was no doubt that the Saitu Dimension was in it.

“This place is a little dangerous!”

Merlin frowned, and studied the map carefully. He found that this path really was quite dangerous. There were a few dimensions occupied by foreign tribes. If he was not careful and went too near, it might cause violent reactions from the other side.

It was very difficult to find a relatively safe passage from this area to the area where the Saitu Dimension was located.

“The open territory really is too large. Perhaps even Great Legends won’t have any ways of knowing just how large it is. If one finds a barren dimension in it, and secretly controls it without anyone knowing, they could rely on the Elemental Origin of the dimension to comprehend the Matrix!”

Merlin also slowly understood why the open territory attracted so many Spell Casters. Not only Great Legends but even Great Wizards and some ninth-level Spell Casters would come to try their luck.

The fundamental reason was that the open territory was too vast. If Wizards found a barren dimension, they might go for a few hundreds or thousands of years without being discovered. They would not have to worry about those Great Legends at all.

Of course, if they were found, it would be extremely dangerous. It would be as good as encountering some terrifying plunderers.

Merlin raised his head, and countless thoughts flashed in his mind. From what he saw on the map, there were several dimensions that were controlled by foreign tribes comparable to Great Legends. It would be very disastrous for Merlin to approach them with his current strength.

“If only Didimoss was here.”

Merlin was also helpless. Didimoss was taken away by Wizard Setoh, making Merlin feel uneasy.

Merlin’s strongest power now was Darkness Eye and the Four-Elemental combined Spell. He had also reached the second step of his Hallucinating Spell that could plunge most Great Wizards into an illusion.

Such power was already quite commendable. However, in the open territory, there were no guarantees. Even Great Legends would be besieged and killed by some foreign tribes, much less Merlin.

“I need to be fully prepared before I go!”

Merlin gritted his teeth, and quickly projected his Mind Power into the illusion bead.

“Titus!”

Merlin went to Titus, and said with a grave expression, “Titus, can I mobilize the Illusory World in the illusion bead?”

Titus raised his head in surprise. “Wizard Merlin, as explained previously, with your current Mind Power, it’s impossible to mobilize the Illusory World. You’ll only be able to barely mobilize the Illusory World if you form a Ninth-level Mind Heart or reach the Illusory Heart, and fully fuse with the Illusory World…”

Merlin waved his hand to interrupt Titus before he had finished speaking. He looked at Titus with intense eyes and smiled coldly. “What if you’re included?”

“Me? Wizard Merlin, I’m just a trace of Mind Power.”

Titus’ expression did not change as he said calmly.

Merlin continued to sneer while staring at Titus. If he had strength comparable to a peak Great Wizard, and went into the open territory, it would already be considered lucky if he did not encounter any troubles. If he really did, then it might be extremely dangerous. Hence, he had to be prepared.

However, the Illusory World could confuse Legends. If Merlin could use such great power, he would have some confidence to wander the open territory.

As the creator of the Illusory World, Merlin did not believe that Titus could not do anything about the Illusory World even if he just had a trace of Mind Power left.

Seeing Merlin’s eyes grow colder and colder, after a long moment, Titus finally let out a long sigh, and shrugged helplessly. “Alright, I can grasp a little of the Illusory World but what I can do to help is very limited. With my present Mind Power, I can only mobilize the Illusory World for a short time at best. Moreover, as the owner of the illusion bead, your help is needed to unleash the power of the Illusory World!”

The corners of Merlin’s mouth revealed a smile. He felt long ago that it was impossible that the Mind Power Titus had left behind was unable to mobilize the Illusory World. Otherwise, he would not have been able to affect Spellcast City for so long.

“Good. What I’m going to do will be very dangerous but with your help, the success rate will increase greatly! However, I still need to confirm something. With your Mind Power, what will happen if you persist for too long?”

“I’ll be annihilated. Completely annihilated! This part of my Mind Power will disintegrate and disappear. For you, there won’t be much loss as the Illusory World will still exist. However, without me, it would be much more difficult for your Mind Power to fuse into the Illusory World in the future.”

At this point, Titus could only tell the truth. Merlin was the one who had refined the illusion bead, and fundamentally suppressed him. Titus had no way to resist.

Merlin nodded, and took a deep breath. “Don’t worry. Unless there’s no other alternative, I won’t make you mobilize the Illusory World!”

“Swoosh.”

Merlin’s Mind Projection instantly withdrew from the Illusory World.

In the room, Merlin slowly opened his eyes, his hand holding a white illusion bead. Merlin was very satisfied with Titus’ answer.

However, just as Merlin told Titus, he would not mobilize the Illusory World unless absolutely necessary. After all, he did not intend to let Titus disappear completely.

This was just preparation!

“The preparations are almost ready. It’s time to set out!”

Merlin stood up, and put the dimension map away. He took out the Aurora Ship, and instantly turned into a streak of light, flying away from the beautiful Rainbow Dimension.

In the icy cold Void Zone, a flying ship quietly flew forward.

“Oh? It’s a casting tool! He’s alone. There’s actually someone who dares to enter the open territory alone?”

In the vast Void Zone, a group of four Great Wizards also discovered the flying ship behind them, and warily looked at the flying ship.

Thankfully, the Elemental fluctuations emitted by the flying ship was obviously from a Spell Caster!

Although there was no distinction between civilizations and tribes in the open territory where everyone killed anyone else, it was still very chaotic. However, if a Spell Caster encountered another Spell Caster, as long as there was no reason to, they would not do anything.

When the two sides encountered each other like now, they had to release their life force in advance. Otherwise, no one could guarantee that the two sides would not act.

Although it was strange that a Wizard would dare to enter the open territory alone, the group of Great Wizards did not come forward to ask. In the open territory, they could remain friendly and not take action, but they would not approach willingly. That was a very provocative and dangerous act.

“Whoosh.”

The flying ship swooped past the group, and its speed even quickened.

“Huh? He flew in that direction. Is he trying to compete for that newly discovered dimension?”

“Hehe, who knows how many strong and weak Great Wizards and foreign tribes have rushed over because of that newly discovered dimension. It’ll end up in a terrible fight. Let’s go somewhere else to try our luck. We might be able to find a barren dimension.”

“It’s true that even Great Legends will hear about that new dimension. It’s not something we can get our hands on. It’s better to try our luck somewhere else.”

The group of Great Wizards cast a pitiful look at the flying ship getting farther away, and flew away in another direction.

In the flying ship, Merlin spread out his Mind Power in vigilance. Although this was very taxing on his Mind Power, Merlin still had to do it. Over the past few days, after he had entered the open territory, Merlin had already encountered several Spell Caster groups. Although there were no conflicts because of his Spell Caster life force, he was still very alert.

“This next section won’t be as smooth. Many foreign tribes have already appeared in this area. My identity as a Spell Caster might become a hindrance instead!”

Merlin opened the dimension map. He had just entered the open territory. As the distance from the Rainbow Dimension was relatively near, those that he met on the previous sections were mostly Spell Casters. As they were all Spell Casters, there were no fights.

However, that might not be the case from now onward. The ones he met might not be Spell Casters but instead various strong members from foreign tribes. A Spell Caster’s identity could no longer provide Merlin with benefits. He might even have to keep his life force.

Thus, Merlin used the Runic Heartprint and sealed the Aurora Ship using a Runic Magic Circle to ensure that no life force was leaked out. However, if an encounter was at close range, anyone would see at a glance that this was a Spell Caster’s casting tool.

Until then, absolute vigilance had to be maintained.

The open territory was too vast and boundless. Judging by the dimension map, it seemed as if the area of the Saitu Dimension was not far but it was only after Merlin flew this far that he had realized that it would take several years to fly to the coordinates of the Saitu Dimension.

“It can’t be helped. I’ll just have to fly slowly!”

Merlin was also quite helpless. This was the prerequisite of casting tools. It was not surprising that even Great Legends needed to use casting tools. Otherwise, just by relying on a Spell Caster’s flying speed, no one knew how long one would need to fly to get from one dimension to another.

Merlin also felt very tired. Not only did he need to maintain the speed of the Aurora Ship but he also had to release his Mind Power to be alert of the surroundings.

Every once in a while, Merlin repaired and recovered his Mind Power, replenished his Magic Power, and continued his flight. Although this area was said to be chaotic and very dangerous, Merlin’s luck was quite good as he never encountered a single foreign tribe.

One year, two years, three years…

After flying for three full years, Merlin looked at the mark on the dimension map and finally revealed a smile. He was about to reach the area where the Saitu Dimension was located.

“The open territory isn’t as dangerous as it’s rumored to be. In such a large place, it’s very difficult to encounter another foreign tribe… In another two months at most, I should be able to enter the area where the Saitu Dimension is located. Hopefully, I’ll find the Saitu Dimension smoothly.”

Merlin did not encounter any foreign tribes in these three whole years, so he had some doubts about the rumor. After all, the open territory was too large. No matter how many foreign tribes there were, it would not be easy to coincidentally encounter them.

“Whoosh.”

Suddenly, Merlin’s eyes lit up. He saw a huge white light enveloping an area in the Void Zone not far ahead.

“A dimension? There’s a dimension but nothing is marked on the dimension map. Could my luck really be so good as to encounter a barren dimension?”

Merlin’s eyes widened, and he could not help but get excited at the thought of a barren dimension. In the open territory, there was never a lack of legends of occasionally finding a barren dimension.

“A barren dimension! However, I’ll still have to be careful. Let’s take a look!”

Merlin continued spreading his Mind Power, and carefully urged the Aurora Ship toward the dimension in front.
