Chapter 44: Who Was the Gray-Robed Mage From the Imperial City?

Translator: Simple MTL  Editor: Simple MTL

Seeing the young man run away, Lei Luo flipped his hand and killed the immortal. Then, he moved and disappeared.

Inside the temple was no different from the previous one. However, the inner core area seemed to have become a devil’s den.

After seven years of development, the power of the temple had expanded to an extremely terrifying level.

At this moment, in the main hall of the core, a black-robed figure sat on the throne, emitting an extremely terrifying aura. It was like a dark shadow that was about to cover the earth.

There were also several elders of the temple and the original Sacred Lord Usby.

They had all modified the sky magic codex and completed the transformation from human to immortal.

It was an extremely cruel process.

The temple originally had dozens of high-level elemental mages, but more than half of them could not maintain their self-awareness and had collapsed during this transformation. In the end, they became true immortals.

Now, the power of each elder of the temple had far surpassed that of the past. They had basically reached the level of pseudo-ultimate mages.

The original Sacred Lord Usby bowed and said, “Master, now that the Faroe Kingdom has come looking for us, they want our temple to cooperate with that little girl called Ivy. How should we deal with them?”

The power of the black-robed mage had now reached an extremely terrifying level. Even if their power increased immensely, the power of the black-robed mage was still far above theirs.

The most important thing was that the black-robed mage had grasped the power of the immortal clan’s blood descendants. Through the immortal clan’s blood descendants, he could control everyone who practiced the sky magic codex.

They would never be able to escape the black-robed mage’s control. However, they did not care because they saw the opportunity to become an ultimate mage.

“Who is this Ivy?” A hoarse and suppressed voice was heard.

“Master, she is the daughter of King Faroe, Princess Wei.”

Usby quickly said, “This woman is extremely talented. She is only twenty-five years old and already has the power of a fifth-level elemental mage.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to nurture such a royal fairy into an immortal? If she can successfully transform, then I will take her in as my disciple.”

The black-robed mage let out a strange, owl-like laugh.

“If this woman knew that Master thinks so highly of her, she would definitely be extremely grateful.”

Usby quickly complimented him.

“Before long, I will be able to break through to become an ultimate mage and rule the world.”

Endless demonic sounds were emitted.

Usby and the other elders all knelt down, looking forward to that moment.

Once their master became an ultimate mage, he would be able to truly conquer the entire middle-earth, and they would no longer have to hide in the darkness.

The entire middle-earth would be at his mercy.

The transcendent forces, the Faroe Kingdom, and the invincible pseudo-ultimate mages were all trash. They would eventually submit to the great master of the immortal clan!

…

The Blood Cave.

This was an important place in the core area of the temple because this was the base for the cultivation of the immortal clan.

The blood cave was huge. It was once a forbidden area of the temple, but it was later expanded by the temple and eventually formed a blood cave.

The ground of this blood cave was filled with all kinds of white bones. It gave off a strong stench as if it was hell on earth.

At this moment, a large number of humans were imprisoned here.

Thousands of people.

All of them were mages.

They had been captured by the temple through various means.

If ordinary people were used as nutrients to nurture the immortal clan, then these mages were used to nurture the true immortal clan.

Mages had a chance of withstanding the contamination of the immortal clan’s blood descendants’ energy and transforming into the immortal clan.

All the mages sat on the bones, looking weak and hopeless.

These people were high-level mages, and there were quite a few elemental mages among them. There were even a few high-level elemental mages.

In a corner, an old man and a girl were sitting together. The girl’s hair was messy, and her face was covered in dirt. She had a gloomy expression on her face, and she hugged her knees with both hands.

“Your Highness, His Majesty will definitely send someone to save us.” The old man comforted her.

It turned out that these two people were Princess Wei and Mage Bowes, who had secretly been protecting her.

“Maybe. If Senior comes here, maybe there’s a way,” Wei said in a low voice.

She knew that the possibility was very low.

Although there was some information left behind at that time, it was too difficult for her father to find her.

She did not even know where she was.

“Senior?”

Mage Bowes was stunned. He naturally knew who the senior mentioned by the princess was. He was the student who swept the floor in the Library of Hiro Magic Academy.

Even a high-level elemental mage like him could not escape. What could a student who swept the floor do?

…

Madajong Valley had been completely locked down by Lord Lavagh’s army. All the mages were under control, and information about the immortal clan’s touch was also strictly sealed.

“The immortal clan. I didn’t expect the master of Madajong Valley to have been disguised by the immortal clan. They really hid themselves well.”

Lord Orne looked at the corpse, and a cold expression appeared on his face.

Lord Orne was a loyal person. He had not participated in the rebellion of the five great lords. He had even prepared to lead an army to support the king’s city. However, the great battle had ended before he arrived because of the arrival of the invincible pseudo-ultimate mage.

Halfway through, he received the king’s order and returned to his kingdom.

This time, because of the Princess’ disappearance, he had personally left the castle and come here.

The princess had disappeared in his kingdom. He definitely had to accept part of the responsibility.

“The immortal clan has not appeared for nearly three hundred years. Previously, I had personally inquired about this Madajong, but I did not find any flaws” Shadow guard commander, Mo Dong said in a deep voice.

Shadow guards were a secret organization of the Faroe Kingdom. They reported everything directly to the Faroe Kingdom.

Over the years, shadow guards had been investigating the disappearance case. After Princess Wei went missing, Mo Dong, as the commander, rushed out immediately.

There was Judge Sisal, the king’s personal guard, great mage Branch, and Keya, one of the eight commanders of the Justice Corps. All of them were high-level elemental mages.

“Sika, hurry up and tell me everything that happened.”

Mo Dong suddenly looked at a young man who was so scared that his face was pale.

He was only a student of Madajong. Facing so many important figures, it would be strange if he wasn’t scared.

Now that the entire Madajong Valley was sealed off, it wasn’t up to him whether he lived or died.

Thinking about his relationship with the immortal, his heart was filled with fear.

Sika stammered and told him everything that had happened. He did not dare to hide anything.

“A mage from the imperial city wearing a gray robe?”

Everyone present frowned.

Many people looked at the king’s personal guard, great mage Branch.

Branch was the king’s trusted aide. At the same time, he was also one of the higher-ranking great mages. He managed a large number of great mages in the Imperial Palace.
