《A Wizard’s Secret》A Wizard's Secret
Advertisement
Two figures landed in an overgrown mountain forest.
One was a black-robed Spell Caster who glanced at the sky, and suddenly asked, "Wizard Luce, have you felt the Elemental Origin of this dimension?"
"Elemental Origin?"
Luce blanked out for a moment. Naturally, he knew that the Elemental Origin was the foundation of a dimension. Many plunderers had exploited the Elemental Origin to create their Maxims.
Once the Elemental Origin was gone or otherwise damaged, that dimension would no longer be suitable for Spell Casters to the point that once the Elemental Origin had fallen apart completely, it would affect the environment of the dimension. Devastating squalls and torrents of floods, for instance, were likely to disastrously afflict the living beings of the dimension.
When most Legends occupied a dimension, they were not like plunderers. They would not directly damage the Elemental Origin but instead control it, gently perceiving its mysteries. In that manner, they would spend a long time to gain an understanding of the Elemental Origin bit by bit, and consolidate a new Maxim.
Merlin earlier had sensed that the Elemental Origin seemed to be gathering at the floating continent in the distance. There, Legend Sith had already suppressed the Satsuma God.
In fact, it was simple enough to control the Elemental Origin. In general, it would follow the master of the dimension. Natural gods born in a dimension were the masters, so one could slowly take over this control of the Elemental Origin from a god.
As long as one could suppress or kill a god, acquiring the Elemental Origin was a piece of cake.
Merlin thought about the two dimension coordinates that he knew. If they were truly masterless dimensions, then it would be easy for him to control the Elemental Origin. Most Spell Casters above the Seventh-level, barring any outside interference, would quickly grasp the Elemental Origin of a dimension with no master.
If one had controlled the Elemental Origin, it was equivalent to controlling the entire dimension!
"Legend Sith has almost gained control of the Elemental Origin. How lucky for him to find a masterless dimension such as this where the god isn't powerful as well. He has acquired a massive dimension so easily."
Wizard Luce looked at the floating continent in the distance and an expression of envy came over his face. It was not so easy to find a dimension without a master. Some of the new Great Legends had been in the Void Zone for more than a century, yet they were still unable to find a masterless dimension.
"Let's go. There's a shrine in that area ahead. It's built on this wild mountain. Heh, that saves us some trouble. We'll just destroy it completely and be done with it."
Wizard Luce and Merlin flew toward the shrine on the slope.
"Swoosh."
Both of them hovered above the shrine, where believers were still walking in and out as if they had not noticed Merlin and Wizard Luce. As they watched the believers below, they exchanged a glance. These believers were far too weak.

With a sweep of their Mind Power, they found out that in this shrine, even the strongest believer was only on par with a Seventh-level Spell Caster. Any spell they unleashed would be enough to destroy the believers completely.
"It's my turn now!"
Wind Element surged up furiously around Wizard Luce, and he pointed down at the shrine. His Mind Power guided the Ninth-level Wind-type spell and quickly rushed toward the shrine.
"Boom!"
Under the mighty force of the Ninth-level spell, the shrine could not withstand it at all, and was demolished instantly. As for the believers inside, they were totally crushed by the gale, and not a single one escaped.
"How simple. I hope the following shrines are this easy as well. Come on."
Just as Wizard Luce was leading Merlin toward a shrine in the next region, Merlin furrowed his brows, and fixed his gaze upon the ruins of the recently destroyed shrine.
As if he sensed Merlin's hesitation, Wizard Luce asked doubtfully, "Wizard Merlin, what's wrong? Have you noticed something?"
Following Merlin's gaze, Wizard Luce looked toward the ruins of the shrine as well but he did not see anything that appeared suspicious.
"How come I don't see anything?"
Wizard Luce mumbled throatily.
Merlin abruptly flew toward the ruins, his eyes flashing with a determined sharp light. His expression even contained a trace of elation, only he was forcing himself to suppress it.
"Wizard Luce, pay close attention to the concentration of Elements above the ruins."
Merlin kept his voice low and steady. From Merlin's manner, Wizard Luce could discern a note of excitement.
"Concentration of Elements? It's very normal, this concentration… Hold on, why are the Elements so concentrated here?"
Wizard Luce's expression changed greatly. He felt it as well. Above the shrine, the Elements had become more concentrated. This dimension was already concentrated with Elements in the first place, and was considered a good dimension, suitable for the cultivation of Spell Casters.
However, the concentration of Elements above the shrine was even more astounding. Just being there gave Wizard Luce a feeling of being immersed in Elements.
"What an intense concentration of Elements! Where from the ruins is this coming from?"
Wizard Luce finally gazed down at the ruins. He knew at last why Merlin was so excited. If he had guessed correctly, there must be a lode of Elements beneath the shrine.
Lodes of Elements were in fact not uncommon. Conversely, some dimensions had plenty of them. Nevertheless, these lodes could be categorized by size and quality. With such an intense lode of Elements, it must be a lode of relatively good quality.
As for the size, they would have to take a closer look.
"Wizard Merlin, let's see first how big this lode really is?"
With a great swipe of his hand, Wizard Luce cleared away the ruins below. The earth and rocks were blasted away by Wizard Luce, revealing a glittering lode of elemental crystal stones below the ground.
"There are elemental crystal stones so close to the surface. The quality of this lode is exceptional!"

Wizard Luce gasped in astonishment when he saw this lode, and his eyes brightened with glee. This was really a windfall that had fallen in their laps. He did not expect that upon following Legend Sith to this masterless dimension, they would discover such a massive lode.
"Wizard Luce, look even more carefully at the direction of this lode."
"Direction?"
Wizard Luce followed Merlin's gaze and discovered that the trail of Elements wound west then east, starting from the demolished shrine, not diminishing in the slightest. It was evident that this lode stretched very far.
"Come on, let's see how far it goes."
With that, Merlin and Wizard Luce flew as they continued examining the lode. At the start, Wizard Luce was filled with surprise and elation because this rather large lode would at least provide a few million elemental crystal stones. Moreover, it would be first-rate elemental crystal stones.
However, as more time passed, the lode stretched further and further as if there was no end. From the initial few million elemental crystal stones, it grew to ten million, twenty million, thirty million…
In the end, there were more than a hundred million elemental crystal stones, yet it was still not finished. The concentration of Elements remained as strong as ever as they flew forward. Wizard Luce's face turned more and more somber until ultimately there was no trace of joy.
"Phew…"
Finally, Merlin and Wizard Luce had flown for three days straight. They were rather fast and did not know how much distance they had covered over these three days. It must have been hundreds of thousands of miles at least.
An elemental crystal stones lode that stretched over hundreds of thousands of miles – what a gigantic load this was. Based on their rough estimation, they could unearth at least a billion elemental crystal stones!
They had never even heard of such a colossal elemental crystal stones lode. It had exceeded their imaginations. This was no ordinary dimension but clearly a dimension of elemental crystal stones, which were hidden under the entire dimension.
"Wizard Merlin, the three days' time is up. Let's go quickly. Such a large lode is no longer something we can profit from – it's the cause of ruin! Even an Honored Legend would go mad over this. At the moment, Legend Sith must not have noticed. We should leave this place as soon as possible to avoid stirring up trouble. Otherwise, there would be problems."
Wizard Luce's speaking voice was shaking slightly because this was far too earth-shattering. A sum of more than a billion elemental crystal stones – what an enormous fortune that was!
It must be known that the fortune of most ordinary Legends was just about ten million elemental crystal stones. Even those powerful Honored Legends, who hoarded for over a thousand years, would not have more than a hundred million.
Anyone would go crazy over more than a billion elemental crystal stones. If one could acquire this dimension, one would immediately become one of the richest Spell Casters of the entire Spell Caster civilization in one leap.
If it was a lode with only a few million elemental crystal stones, Wizard Luce and Merlin would have hit the jackpot but with more than one billion elemental crystal stones, this was no longer good luck but a hazard!
"Three days are up. All Spell Casters are to leave the Satsuma Dimension!"
Suddenly, the sky thundered with a booming voice, which belonged to Legend Sith. He had given the Spell Casters three days to destroy the shrines.
Now that three days were over, according to the conditions of the contract, the Spell Casters enlisted by Legend Sith must leave the Satsuma Dimension. Up until now, it seemed that Legend Sith had not discovered any elemental crystal stones lode.
"Wizard Merlin, let's go quickly. No matter what ends up happening in this dimension, it's not something we can get involved in."
Wizard Luce was constantly urging Merlin to leave but Merlin was somewhat reluctant. Such an enormous elemental crystal stones lode! He thought about Dispelling Water in the Pavilion of Rarities. Each type would need ten million elemental crystal stones. At first, Merlin had thought that he could not possibly attain so many elemental crystal stones.
However, there was now a chance before his eyes. He only had to spend a little time, and with his methods, he could get enough elemental crystal stones from the lode in a short period.
Of course, this was assuming that it was not discovered by Legend Sith.
"Wizard Luce, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance! I can set up a Runic Magic Circle first, making it harder for Legend Sith to find us. Following that, we'll get a sufficient amount of elemental crystal stones as fast as we can. Even if we're discovered, don't forget, we've signed a contract with Legend Sith. He can't attack us or even restrain us! At worst, we would have offended a Great Legend over this but the Void Zone is so vast. With the elemental crystal stones, we can go anywhere we want. Can Legend Sith really search through the entire Void Zone?"
Merlin's words tempted Wizard Luce. It was true. With the contract, Legend Sith could not attack them for now. In addition, upon leaving the dimension, the contract stipulated that Legend Sith must not attack them for a month.
This was their chance. Moreover, if they were quick and surreptitious about it, Legend Sith might not even find out.
"Let's do it!"
After giving it a great deal of thought, Wizard Luce finally made up his mind. His eyes were bloodshot. Evidently, it had been a big decision. After all, not everyone would have the guts to go against a Great Legend.
"Alright, we can't delay anymore. We'll act now. I'll set up the Runic Magic Circle first!"
A smile appeared on Merlin's lips. With Luce's help, he would be able to dig up enough elemental crystal stones in the shortest possible time.

Life in another world with an Immunity System
NOTE: I just finished a large scale editing with the chapters. From now on, the world is no longer a 1000X Earth. I have added my original element. From here on, with a few exceptions, no similarity can be found with our Earth. Thank you. The change has been applied from chapter 1. So if anyone finds any missed places or traces of my previous world-building, please comment and notify me. Andel lived in a world where those with powers will have the final say in everything. In his world, having no aptitude to either magic or Ki means you are even worse than ants. Unfortunately, he didn’t have any aptitude to either. His life should have been hell, but due to being the son of two powerful parents and descendant of a powerful family saved him from a wretched fate. Life was harsh, but Andel wasn’t one to mourn and do nothing. From his childhood, he learned all kinds of close-combat styles and martial arts, proving himself to be a genius at close combat as long as ki isn’t involved. As genius as he was, there was no way he could match those with powers, right? Wrong! Andel had another identity. He was originally a person from Earth who got transmigrated after an accident. Moreover, during his transmigration, he also gained a system that gave him resistance to various things in exchange for experience points. With the Immunity System in hand, Andel decided to finally step into this magical new world and make a name for himself, after spending twenty years in training.
