"You two are from the outside world, so you should know better than us that this place is the belly of a giant beast, right?"

Wizard Foba's expression slowly turned solemn.

Merlin and Luce nodded their heads. "Yes, we call this giant beast a Slothful Beast. We were swallowed by it when it woke up."

Foba laughed after hearing that and continued. "Indeed, this is the inside of a Slothful Beast. We call it the Slothful Beast world… You won't be able to imagine just how large this world is. However, you've seen this giant beast before. As we were born in the Slothful Beast world, even if someone has described the Slothful Beast before, we still can't imagine how large the beast is.

"In the Slothful Beast world, not only are there Spell Casters but also other foreign tribes. Relatively speaking, we Spell Casters are at an absolute disadvantage. I believe you should've guessed the reason why."

Merlin frowned and said, "It's because there are no Elements?"

Immediately after entering the dark area of the Slothful Beast's body, Merlin had already found that there was no trace of Elements. This was quite deadly to Spell Casters.

Without Elements, even if a Spell Model was constructed, one would not possess Magic Power. Without Magic Power, one naturally would not be able to cast spells. Thus, in the Slothful Beast world, Spell Casters did not have any advantage at all.

"Yes, there aren't any Elements, so we could only become Mind Power Masters! Becoming a Mind Power Master is very challenging, and there are often attacks from foreign tribes, which is causing the numbers of us Spell Casters to decrease. We even look forward to the arrival of Spatial Windstorms now because if there's a Spatial Windstorm, those foreign tribes wouldn't dare to attack again."

Saying this, Foba and the other Elders also shook their heads helplessly, and sighed.

Merlin heard Wizard Foba mentioned foreign tribes several times. Merlin also knew that the Void Zone had too many foreign civilizations, and the Spell Caster civilization was only one of them. Since the Slothful Beast could swallow Spell Casters, it could definitely swallow many other tribes.

However, what Merlin and Luce were concerned about was not this but if they could leave the Slothful Beast world.

"Elder Foba, have you heard of a method to leave the Slothful Beast world?

"Leaving the Slothful Beast world is a dream we've never given up on… However, after so many years, we've never heard of anyone leaving the Slothful Beast world before. Even some powerful foreign tribes have never left the Slothful Beast world before."

"What? No one has left the Slothful Beast world before? Do we have to stay here forever?"

Merlin and Wizard Luce immediately stood up, looking a little anxious. They did not want to spend their lives in the Slothful Beast world.

"Please don't be worried. We don't know a way to leave the Slothful Beast world because we are originally from this world. In this world, there are many others like you who have been sucked in by the Slothful Beast. Perhaps they would know a way to leave the Slothful Beast World."

Elder Foba could only placate Merlin and Luce. These two Wizards were very important to their tribe. With these two, the Gigula Tribe could move to the safest place.

"Where are these people?"

Merlin also immediately calmed his mood and asked softly.

"Wizard Merlin, Wizard Luce, please be rest assured. I've already notified several other tribes so Spell Casters who came from the outside like you will arrive soon. All you need to do is wait in the tribe for a while, and they'll naturally come."

Merlin nodded. That was the only thing they could do. They could also make use of this time to learn more about this strange Slothful Beast world.

"However, we still have a request for Wizard Merlin and Wizard Luce."

Wizard Foba's bright eyes looked at Merlin and Luce, his gaze revealing hope.

"What is it?"

"It's very simple. We hope that Wizard Merlin will take our Gigula Tribe into Spellcast City, which is the safest place. The entire Gigula Tribe is only two thousand people, and only after entering Spellcast City would our tribe be able to slowly recuperate and grow. This is our only request!"

Merlin did not answer immediately but asked instead, "Is it very dangerous here?"

"It is. The easiest thing to avoid here is Spatial Windstorms. There are various other dangers but the greatest threat comes from the foreign tribes. Those foreign tribes treat us as delicacies. They'll attack us from time to time, and seize a number of tribe members. However, we're helpless against them! If this continues, the Gigula Tribe will cease to exist…"

Wizard Foba and the others all looked indignant but equally helpless. It seemed that they were facing a dilemma. A tribe was gradually being destroyed in their hands, which was not something they were willing to see.

Spellcast City was the hold land in their hearts. It was the safest place, and they did not have to worry about any disasters or attacks from foreign tribes there. That was because the strongest Spell Casters gathered there, and there was even the existence of Runic Magic Circles protecting the city.

For a small tribe like the Gigula Tribe, their biggest dream was to lead the tribe into Spellcast City. However, it was difficult to achieve what they wanted just by their own strength.

Merlin and Luce's arrival this time enabled Foba and the others see a glimmer of hope. In the rumors, a Spell Caster's arrival was the greatest matter for Spell Casters. They would mobilize countless powerful figures, including even those in Spellcast City.

Perhaps when the time comes, the two Spell Casters, Merlin and Luce, would be able to bring the Gigula Tribe into Spellcast City. This was why Foba had let Merlin stay in the Gigula Tribe for a few days without telling Merlin and Luce where Spellcast City was located.

On this matter, Fuba and the others were selfish.

However, Merlin and Luce did not mind. The rumored Spellcast City was the place where the strongest Spell Casters in the Slothful Beast world gathered. They also did not want to rush into it without knowing anything.

Thus, it was acceptable for them to wait in the Gigula Tribe. As for Foba and the others' request, Merlin did not mind helping them if he could.

Thus, Merlin and Luce temporarily stayed at the Gigula Tribe, and waited. At the same time, Foba also sent out several people from the Gigula Tribe to convey the news of the Spell Casters' arrival to the surrounding tribes...

...

On a quiet morning, Merlin was helping Wizard Luce form his Mind Heart.

However, forming a Mind Heart was not that easy. Wizard Luce had been trying for several days but he still could not form a Mind Heart.

In the Slothful Beast world, since there were no Elements, there were basically no Spell Casters willing to release spells because that would mean consuming a lot of Magic Power.

Magic Power was the foundation of most Spell Casters. If there were no Elements to change into Magic Power, and penetrate into their bodies to keep them alive for a longer time, Spell Casters would be the same as ordinary people. They would gradually age after a few decades or centuries, and finally die.

Elder Foba and the other Elders had already formed a Seventh-level Mind Heart. They could be considered the strongest figures in the Spell Caster world.

However, they were only in their sixties but they were already looked aged, and their life force was diminishing every day as well. At most, they would live till eighty before dying.

Without Elements, a Spell Caster would become the same as ordinary people. The exception was Great Legends, who had their dependence on Elements after condensing a Maxim. Just by relying on the Maxim, they could live for a long time. However, in the end, they still could not live as long as in the Spell Caster civilization.

Perhaps only Honored Legends would be able to live forever after forming an Ultimate Maxim, and keeping their consciousness and Mind in it.

Merlin also realized the value of elemental crystal stones in the Slothful Beast world. Therefore, he recently did not use any Magic Power but carved and polished the Mind Power system instead.

It was quite strange. Since there were no Elements in the Slothful Beast world, there was great progress on the Mind Power system. In the Gigula Tribe, as long as their Mind Power was awakened, they would immediately receive some special meditation techniques.

Even Merlin was amazed to see these meditation techniques. They were better than any other meditation technique he had come into contact with. It could even be cultivated until Sixth-level Mind Power.

After reaching Sixth-level Mind Power, it would be necessary to start forming a Mind Heart. Furthermore, the methods for forming a Mind Heart would already be mature. Merlin originally thought that it would be rough, but after careful study, he found that it was extremely fine, and he could hardly find any flaws.

"A world which completely abandoned spells but committed to the development of the Mind Power System instead… Perhaps I'll find some ways to understand the essence of Mind Power here…"

For the first time, Merlin felt that entering the Slothful Beast world was not without reward. At the very least, the Mind Power system here would have been developed further and better than in the Spell Caster civilization.

After all, the Spell Caster civilization was still dominated by Spell Casters. Only a few people would choose to become Mind Power Master. However, there was no other choice in the Slothful Beast world. As long as their Mind Power was awakened, they can only become a Mind Power Master!

Merlin had also asked Elder Foba where the cultivation method for the Mind Power system came from. Foba's answer was very simple: from Spellcast City. It was gradually perfected by numerous powerful Spell Casters and Mind Power Masters after thousands of years of development.

However, this Mind Power cultivation method seemed to only be able to let one cultivate until the Ninth-level!

With Merlin's current Mind Power, this system was not as helpful to him. The path he wanted to walk on was a path no one had walked before. He had to do everything himself.

"Understanding the essence of Mind Power really is tough! To turn nothingness into reality, firstly, I have to comprehend 'nothingness' to the pinnacle. Mind Power had always been illusory, and used to make people hallucinate…"

Merlin also began to try comprehending the essence of Mind Power by combining the method of condensing a Mind Heart from Mind Power used by the Gigula Tribe. However, he proceeded step by step and did not bite off more than he could chew. Once again, he had comprehended the use of "illusion" in Mind Power.

From the beginning, Mind Power had been used to make people hallucinate. Thus, "illusion" was very important. The illusions that Merlin had experienced before were far from those created by the Blackfire Lord.

Merlin also vaguely felt that even the Blackfire Lord's illusion still had great defects, and was not perfect.

"The first step to understanding the essence of Mind Power isn't increasing the power to interfere with the material world but to understand 'illusion' to the peak. That was the start of interfering with the material plane…"

Merlin calmed his heart down, and cleared his mind. He already vaguely walked the first step in perfecting the Mind Power system.
