Chapter 400 Intricate Spider's Web filled with Schemes
A wizard is a very cruel and merciless creature, especially those who are driven by knowledge.
No amount of explanation could convey the heinous experiments they conduct when researching creatures that pique their interest. The cruelty would send shivers down the spine of anyone who witnesses it.
Aur has not yet encountered such a wizard, but he is aware of the terrifying experiments they conduct. What has Aur identified as? An identifiable creature of the world. If he were to be captured, the research and cruel torture would be horrifying.
These people were all about this, and Aur still remembered the unconcealed malice of all the people behind him when he was in the circle.
Aur was weak at the time, a mere bug that they could crush at will, so why would they even try to hide it?
But now everything is different…
Aur casually dragged the unconscious body of the Wine King across the ground and entered the portal.
When he looked again, he found himself back in the pavilion surrounded by greenery.
"Master, why didn't you kill this person? He is a Tier Six wizard. If I could absorb him, the benefits would be stronger," Stella spoke in her mechanical voice.
Aur gave her a look. "You are being greedy. I want him for the spells he possesses as well as to study his Mental Space."
"Eh, study Mental Space?" Stella's voice now had a human tone.
Aur squinted his eyes at her. "I already have control over her entire being, so it doesn't matter even if she gains sentience."
While thinking this, he casually shrugged off these unnecessary thoughts in his mind and looked ahead with a deep gaze.
"Look at me, Stella," Aur spoke lightly.
"Yes?" Stella looked at Aur with eyes full of confusion.
"Do you see any fluctuation of Mana near me?"
"Are you trying to create a new Mental Space?" Stella's eyes immediately widened with realisation. Since Aur didn't have a mental space.
"Yeah."
Aur casually nodded his head.
This world was not very welcoming of him breaking through Tier Four using his body, and he might face countless difficulties during future breakthroughs.
Not to mention that his blood and Qi were always faintly suppressed, and he couldn't truly fight freely.
"Having a Mental Space and walking the path of both the wizard and body wouldn't hurt."
Aur thought to himself, "Besides, another reason is Magic. When I become a wizard again, I can refine spells and rapidly increase all my comprehension, as well as get close to mastery level in most of the magic."
If he could become more proficient in this magic, not only would it help his Wizard Tier, but his Body Tier would also be more enriched, and his combat power would increase rapidly.
With all of this in consideration, only then did Aur decide to construct his mental space again.
A wizard isn't a wizard without Mental Space.
"Show me the records of your sect, Stella," Aur spoke lightly.
"Yes, Master," Stella bowed, and the void distorted.
Soon, Aur was led to a massive and large library.
"This is all the knowledge that our sect has collected from the golden era to our own era."
"I see."
Aur looked at the vast expanse of the books while stretching his hands as far as they would go. "I have a lot to look at."
…
The sun hung high in the sky, radiating its warm light to all the creatures on the ground.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Two shadows were rapidly flying through the sky.
"Master Crystal," Nina said after a long time, while gulping. "Why are we running away? Can't we go back in?"
Greater Lord Crystal paused, her body remaining in a stationary position as she looked back.
"No, we cannot go back. Even if I could, I wouldn't."
"Why not?" Nina asked curiously.
"As you have said, Aur has become the master of the world there. That means only Tier Seven or higher wizards can resist his power. No matter how strong those below Tier Seven are, they will still be easily crushed."
"Then those people," Nina's eyes widened.
"They are likely dead already. I cannot find even the mark that I implanted on Aur before, so I can feel it has not been removed yet, just suppressed," the corner of her lips rose. "My mark is not so easy to erase. Once he couldn't suppress it any longer, I can invite the Tier Seven or higher wizard from our Divine Human Kingdom and completely destroy the place," Greater Lord Crystal casually explained.

"I see," Nina nodded deeply in thought.
"Even if I had that world, it might be difficult for me to keep it, but now that Aur has it and this is equivalent to killing off all the friendships from the Divine Human Kingdoms, then he is dead," she sighed in her heart, unknowingly a smile leaped across her face.
The Divine Human Kingdom was the strongest force in the world, compared to Aur who was just a tiny individual who couldn't make a ripple in the vast ocean.
"Don't worry about it. After we capture Aur, in respect to you we will not kill him," Greater Lord Crystal softly consoled.
"Umm, we already found him, and I do not care about Aur's life any longer," Nina shook her head.
"I see." There was some pity in Greater Lord Crystal's eyes as the two silently travelled in the broad daylight.
As they travelled, they didn't know that two men were watching them silently with cold expressions.
"Should we kill them?" the old man with glasses spoke. He had neatly combed hair and a shaved beard.
"Go right ahead if you want to incur the wrath of the Divine Human Kingdom," the other old man snickered. His body was giant, with a bald head and a long beard.
One of his arms was replaced by the arms of a pirate. These two were the ancestors of Myra and the ancestors of Wine, respectively.
"Don't go too far," the ancestor of Myra closed his eyes. "All our descendants have already died in that place, and these two are likely responsible for this."
"Geezer, it looks like time has taken its toll on you. They are running away, and there is fear in that little girl's eyes. Do those eyes look like the eyes of the victor?"
"Then who could it be?"
"Aur," the ancestor of Wine spoke lightly. "Our descendants have already remembered that. For him to be an unidentifiable creature by trial, there is something special about him. I feel like he was the one who became the owner."
"Hmph, that is only your conjecture. Whether it is true or not, only time will tell. The trial has already closed, and we can't enter it."
The Ancestor of Myra turned around, shaking his head, and went away.
The Ancestor of Wine gave one deep look at the two figures, and his body also gradually vanished in the wind.
But these two couldn't identify a long, black-haired man who was silently observing them with a smile on his face.
He looked at the fleeting back of Greater Lord Crystal and Nina, still smiling.
"The plan has failed."
The tone was extremely chilling and cold.
