25 Planar Path (1/2)

And all this was just with a raw Abyssal Magic Diamond that had been roughly treated...

If one fell into the hands of a Great Alchemist, the radiance of the Abyssal Magic Diamond would really blossom. Those peak alchemists could even use Abyssal Magic Diamonds to craft Spiritual Magic Tools!

Spiritual level, what kind of concept was that...

The best magic tools circulating on the market were mostly Superior level, yet the cheapest of those would be bought for over ten thousand gold. And above the Superior level, there were still the Excellent and Inheritance levels. It was the Spiritual level that many Great Alchemists spent their entire lives pursuing, the goal of creating a Spiritual Magic Tool.

The Spiritual level, as the name implied, would give the items spirituality. Those Magic Tools weren't just pieces of equipment anymore, they were connected with their owner's blood, and their power could even be compared to that of a High Mage.

In other words, having a Spiritual Magic Tool was equivalent to having a High Mage aid you in battle!

And now, there were as many as three Abyssal Magic Diamonds in front of Lin Yun...

This was simply unthinkable!

If these three Abyssal Magic Diamonds were brought out into the public eye, all the alchemists of Thousand Sails City might go completely crazy!

'Hold on, what's that…' Just as Lin Yun was getting dazzled by his find, Lin Yun suddenly noticed some runes carved in between the three Abyssal Magic Diamonds.

Lin Yun studied the stone wall for a bit and roughly understood what was going on. This was an alchemy array built upon six runes. The specific effect was to extract mana from the three Abyssal Magic Diamonds, but things were more complicated when he followed those runes down.

There was another alchemy array under the three Abyssal Magic Diamonds, but the structure of this array was a hundred times more complicated than the previous one, and it was a hundred times more expensive, too.

Each rune was written in Void Ink, while a few of the mana circuits even used Soul Burning Ink, not to mention the over 20 magic nodes. Even Lin Yun could barely distinguish them from one another. It seemed to him that the effect of this alchemy array was to use the Abyssal Magic Diamond's mana to keep the space stable.

'Space?' Lin Yun looked back at those three Abyssal Magic Diamonds, suddenly realizing something.

'No wonder…'

The questions in Lin Yun's mind got their answer upon recognizing this alchemy array.

Lin Yun didn't need to study the array any further to know that behind these three Abyssal Magic Diamonds on the stone wall was a path.

A Planar Path!

The so-called Planar Path was a passage between planes. In fact, as early as the 3rd dynasty, some people had suggested that Noscent wasn't the only world in the boundless universe. But those theories had no physical evidence to back them up at the time.

That was the case up until the end of the 3rd era when some mages brought it up again and tried to prove the existence of different planes. In the last hundred years of the 3rd dynasty, the Crimson Tower finally opened a Planar Path.

Afterwards...

There was nothing afterwards. The powerful group of mages from the Crimson Tower set foot on the Planar Path, but they never returned. The entire Crimson Tower fell apart overnight and finally died out due to endless power struggles created by the void left behind.

After that, speaking of Planar Paths was a taboo topic for a long time.

Up until the current times, many years later.

All kinds of magic research would progress day after day, mages would grow more powerful, and ambitions would keep rising, especially when some lucky guy brought back all kinds of rare resources from another plane. Plane colonization would become something the mages of this era would jointly work on. Each plane hidden behind those Planar Paths would become gold mines in the eyes of the mages.

But only a few Planar Paths were known, and they were mostly in the hands of Noscent's most powerful forces. Trying to gain control of one would be courting death.

Thus, each time a new Planar Path appeared, countless forces would fight over it because to them, a new Planar Path meant a new opportunity for endless wealth. They were willing to pay an unimaginable price for the sake of a new Planar Path.
