Chapter 535: Six Rings Turtle Shell



Chapter 535: Six Rings Turtle Shell

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Six Rings Algae, a creature that was coincidentally developed by Six Rings Celestial Sorcerer, was a creature created to destroy.

Its destruction could remove Celestial-craters and even dictate the remaining ancient rules in the craters. At the same time, it could not be eaten by other creatures, thus not able to form energy cycles.

The mere existence of this evil plant was an interruption to the balanced law of the Endless World. It would be removed or repelled by those laws. Therefore, other than nurturing and protecting them artificially in the Sorcerers World, it would be impossible for nature to provide a thriving environment for these kinds of creatures.

Facing such terrifying plants, Grimm and the lot naturally avoided them by going the other way around.

What made Six Rings Celestial Sorcerer so great was that this destructive plant that was created out of sheer coincidence was turned into a tool that had brought help to mankind. The plant had helped men in removing Celestial-craters, Stigma-craters and all the areas left behind by natural disasters.

“Master, shouldn’t we try to collect some specimens of Six Rings Algae? If...”

Varro asked tentatively. Compared to Grimm, he was a Sorcerer that was more interested in collecting instead of researching. He was more fascinated by rare and odd objects.

Hearing this, Grimm smiled. Master Peranos glanced at Varro and said, “Besides the Celestial Sorcerer, no one can preserve this creature under the balanced laws of the Endless World, can you?”

“Uhm... No.”

Varro shook his head at the realization of how dumb his question was. It was no wonder that Grimm smiled like that after hearing his question.

“Hmph, do you think the Six Rings Algae is a gentle creature? Sampling? From what I see, you’re just giving nutrients to the Six Rings Algae.”

Master Peranos started educating Varro as Mistress Alice stepped in to stop him.

“Alright alright, knowledge on the Six Rings Algae isn’t something that anyone has access to, so Varro not knowing is completely normal.”

***

After five and a half months.

The lot passed through the academy area that was on the outskirts of the Holy Tower of Six Rings, the bustling area in the center and finally reached the Holy Tower of Six Rings. A broad mountain appeared before their eyes.

This was the Six Rings Turtle Shell in the Holy Tower of Six Rings that was located in the Sorcerers World!

In ancient times, the Sorcerers World was in the last phase of facing the invasion of the Ancient Phaseless Demons from the strong Abyss World during the civilization war. Besides countless Celestial Sorcerers and Stigmata Sorcerers resisting the attack, one after another, Eternal Dominators and World Lords were being called from the enormous magic altar in the deepest parts of the vast yet unknown Endless World. They were all called to join that grand yet tragic civilization war.

These great Eternal Dominators and World Lords from foreign worlds risked their lives to pass through the infinite void to reach the Sorcerers World, just for the shocking wealth promised by the contract of fate on the Sorcerer’s altar.

In the end, most of them became like the Ancient Celestial Sorcerers and the Stigmata Sorcerers. They became ancient history, leaving behind ruins of one crater after another, seemingly as proof that they had once existed in the Endless World.

The ancient craters that were deserted in the premises of the Holy Tower of Six Rings were far smaller in numbers when compared to the ones in the Holy Tower of Seven Rings. Grimm, who had flown past them, had experienced the sight first-hand.

This would be the most direct reflection of Six Rings Celestial Sorcerer’s celestial sacrifice of the Six Rings Algae.

Exactly like the Holy Tower of Seven Rings, the actual Holy Tower of Six Rings was also located on the inner parts of the world fragments that were attached to the periphery of the Sorcerers World. It just so happened that the Demon-Hunters’ place of gathering was the Six Rings Turtle Shell.

This was the first Celestial-crater that was successfully kept under control in the Sorcerers World!

In the midst of the many Eternal Dominators from the foreign unknown worlds during the period in the Ancient Sorcerers World, an indescribably vast and enormous turtle Eternal Dominator passed through the infinite void and joined the Sorcerer’s faction in the war between them and the Ancient Phaseless Demons from the ancient Abyss World.

In the end, the giant turtle was killed by the Ancient Phaseless Demon, leaving behind an empty turtle shell in the Sorcerers World.

After Six Rings Celestial Sorcerer had advanced to become a Celestial Sorcerer, he named this giant turtle shell as the Six Rings Turtle Shell. Six Rings Celestial Sorcerer placed the shell on an ancient Celestial-crater and successfully kept the Celestial-crater’s irascible law under control. In turn, the crater became the first Celestial-crater that was successfully kept under control in the Sorcerers World.

The Six Rings Turtle Shell was like the Seven Rings Tree of Life. Both had become a Demon-Hunter gathering place and a landmark of the Sorcerers World.

No matter if he were at the Holy Tower of Seven Rings or the Holy Tower of Six Rings, after passing the inspection for the protection barrier, Grimm who had a Rank-1 Demon-Hunter Honor Badge would be treated highly among the Demon-Hunters.

“The Holy Tower of Six Rings! Grimm, Varro, Vivian, this is the birthplace of the Netherheart’s first vein of inheritance! This time, I and two other masters have decided to support your Master Hydra Wrath with all we have so that he can pass the last level of the Mana Pool in the Stigmata Sorcerer Tower. And then he will be able to become a real Stigmata Sorcerer!”

Master Peranos turned to them and said abruptly.

The Netherheart’s first inherited vein had four second-generation Sorcerers. When one had the hope of becoming a true Stigmata Sorcerer, he would need the full support of three Level-3 Great Sorcerers to offer their all to aid Master Hydra Wrath in completing the building of the Mana Pool in the Sorcerer Academy.

Without building the Sorcerer Tower of the Sorcerer Academy and the support of the Mana Pool, one would not be a true Stigmata Sorcerer.

“As for you guys, you guys have the freedom to choose. But I want you guys to remember that it is very likely for you guys to face the same in the future. If the day came where your Eldest Apprentice-Sister Quiet Spring were to come back and fail in receiving the Sorcerers World’s Rank-Superior Honor Badge, I need you guys to fully support the building of the Sorcerer Tower!”

Receiving the Rank-Superior Honor Badge would make one a World Lord of the Sorcerers World, thus he or she would not need to build the Mana Pool of the Sorcerer Tower. Such Stigmata Sorcerers were very rare.

The predecessor of First Ring Celestial Sorceress—Adjudication Staff Stigmata Sorcerer, was this kind of Stigmata Sorcerer.

From what it seemed, Apprentice-Sister Quiet Spring was not a pure wild instinct Anatomy Refinery Sorcerer. If this were not the case and she proceeded to evolve using the passive ancestral evolution method, then the Sorcerer Tower factor would lose meaning.

“Yes, master.”

“Got it.”

Grimm and Varro nodded in response. Only Vivian lowered her head with both her eyes slightly moist.

Mistress Alice put down Garnigel who was in her arms, and said while smiling, “Alright, you’ll be seeing your Grandmaster Netherheart and your Master Hydra Wrath soon. When the time comes, there won’t be much idle time for you guys so take this chance and take a look around the Holy Tower of Six Rings.”

“Meow...”

Garnigel stretched its body lazily as it said to Little Myna, “I heard that the sweet and sour fish here is good.”

After saying that, Garnigel followed Master Peranos and Mistress Alice as they walked into a distance.

“Vivian, Grimm, I wanna go have a look on the top of the Six Rings Turtle Shell. I heard that there are loads of rare and odd objects there, what about you guys?”

Vivian thought about it and said, “I’ll follow Varro, what about you, Grimm?”

Vivian looked at Grimm.

After thinking for some time, Grimm shook his head and said, “I need to collect a lot of materials for my experiment. The materials here are cheaper than the ones in the Holy Tower of Seven Rings so I was thinking of taking a look around the underground trading sites.”

“About that... young master, I was planning on following your Master Peranos to where they are headed to. Caw caw caw, is that okay?”

Little Myna stuck its tongue out as it said to Grimm while drooling.

Grimm did not need to think twice to know that Little Myna was tempted by the sweet and sour fish that was mentioned by Garnigel. He replied, “Do as you wish.”

“Caw caw, okay! Then I’ll do as I wish.”

Little Myna fluttered its wings as it excitedly flew toward the direction where Mastor Peranos, Mistress Alice and Garnigel went to. Little Myna landed on Mistress Alice’s shoulder.

This fella...

After splitting up with Varro and Vivian, Grimm drew a six rings bubble and started to float about in the sky. He looked at the neatly arranged Demon-Hunter Castles below him and flew toward the entrance to the inner parts of the turtle shell.

The inner part of the Six Rings Turtle Shell was like a limitlessly vast haven.

Grimm wandered around large and small shops of the trading site as he traded Sorcerer Coins, Magic Stones and Sorcerer Essences for the materials he needed for his destructive force experiment.

He had received quite a substantial amount from the Demon-Hunting expedition in the Infernal Spirit World and the Sorcerer Essence reward that was given to him by First Ring Celestial Sorceress. However, to Grimm who was in his search for the materials needed in his Destructive Force Energy Experiment, all he had received meant nothing to him.

It was an indescribable despair. Yet Grimm could not afford to back out, all he could do was keep on moving forward one step at a time.

“What’s this?”

Grimm found an unknown material. It was not completely made out of metal. It had a solid structure that could continuously aggregate small metal pieces for absorption. It had no soul nor life yet there was a weak, unknown magnetic field energy.

The old Sorcerer glanced at Grimm as he felt Grimm’s Principle Will of the Sorcerers World. A look of having great expectations toward Grimm could be seen on his face.

“Hehe, I obtained this by accident in my last Demon-Hunting expedition. This was something I obtained coincidentally in the foreign world. Ten Sorcerer Essences.”

Grimm observed it for some time. Still not knowing what it was, Grimm shook his head as he turned to leave.

After a few days, Grimm returned to the shop. This time, he spent exactly half an hourglass trying to figure out what it was yet ended up clueless as ever. However, this time, he gritted his teeth and purchased it with ten Sorcerer Essences.

Even if he were not able to gain anything from this thing, Grimm would throw this little thing into his observation tool of destructive energy as an unknown material.
