This was a wasteland. A type of red, serrated grass filled the crevices of the rocks, its blades marked with eerie patterns reminiscent of human faces.
Drop by drop, black rainwater formed from the cracks in the ground, rapidly rising to merge with the sky, forming fine, misty droplets.
The rain here was actually black, and it fell upwards.
"In that case, let's name this the 'Black Rain' world. I didn't expect to be this lucky this time, finding an unguarded, undiscovered alternate plane directly..."
A dark-gold spiritual power seed hovered beside a red serrated blade of grass, emitting waves of spiritual power to scan everything nearby, accompanied by a mental sigh.
"If Duke Gilbert had found this place, he would be ecstatic. But for me, it's truly a bit too extravagant!"
A complete alternate plane represented endless top-tier resources and a wealth of alternate plane knowledge, enough to make even Morning Star Wizards green with envy and go mad.
Especially a plane like this, which clearly showed signs of life and was habitable. Leilin believed that if Duke Gilbert had found it, he would have long since thrown caution to the wind, opened the Star Gate, and forcibly descended without hesitation.
But for Leilin right now, all of this was still too premature.
What he had opened was only a spiritual power channel. Not even a solid object could be transmitted through it, let alone a physical body crossing over. That was a function only something like the Star Gate possessed, still far too distant for him in his current state.
"Moreover, if this seed of mine hadn't been forged from crystallized spiritual power, it would have long since dissipated. But for now, it only slightly delays the inevitable..."
The golden spiritual power seed's glow was very faint, especially in this environment, looking as if it might extinguish at any moment.
"Right now, I can only transmit information here. So for me, the most valuable things are the world coordinates, high-level Meditation Methods, or information on other paths of power..."
Leilin desperately hoped a high-energy being would come and take it away.
It was just a spiritual power seed after all; if it dissipated, so be it. But if he could strike a deal with someone, the harvest for him would be terrifying.
Even a simple exchange of information would be of great benefit to him.
The ancient Wizards had originally walked their glorious path by learning from and imitating other worlds. If Leilin wished to restore that ancient glory, he would inevitably have to walk that path again.
"Unable to locate world coordinates!"
Leilin frowned. Through his connection with the Wizard Formation, he could sense that his spiritual power seed had reached an incredibly distant place. Even this link felt intermittent, as if it might sever at any moment.
"To send out spiritual power coordinates, one method is to directly project a substantive positioning marker over there. As long as that marker isn't destroyed, it can continuously emit information waves, allowing the coordinates to be deduced from them. But that's obviously not viable right now!"
Leilin frowned.
How enormous were the benefits of an entire world? Enough to drive Morning Star Wizards mad! Even Dawn Star Wizards would grow envious and make a move! And the prerequisite for obtaining it all was world coordinates!
The calculation method for such coordinates was extremely complex — it wasn't something that could be obtained the instant a spiritual power seed was projected over. It required a series of precise and intricate calculations, and also the cooperation of a spiritual power seed on that world's side.
But Leilin's current spiritual power seed obviously couldn't sustain itself that long.
The fact that he had reached the Black Rain World this time was clearly a fluke — it couldn't happen again.
"There's another method, which is to manipulate the local intelligent natives into building something like an altar — essentially a coordinate transmitter — which I could then verify from my end..."
Once the coordinates were locked down, the Black Rain World wouldn't be going anywhere.
The terrifying ability to relocate one's own world — even Leilin had never heard of such a thing in the myths.
Moreover, with no Guardian, Leilin's spiritual power seed hadn't been destroyed before it even passed through the World Membrane, which meant the Black Rain World had no Wizards above the Moonlight level. Its peak combat power was at most Morning Star-tier — it practically had no defensive capability at all!
"What I'm lacking most right now is time..." Leilin smiled bitterly. His spiritual power seed in the Black Rain World had no means of replenishment, and was on the verge of dissipating entirely.
Once it dissipated, everything he had invested in this endeavor would be completely wasted — and how could he accept that?
A one-in-ten-thousand chance of discovering a world wasn't something that came along easily. The Destiny Gold Coin was already so damaged that it couldn't be used again except in moments of utmost necessity!
And just at that moment, Leilin's brow twitched.
"There's a discovery!"
……
Meanwhile, in the Black Rain World, on the grassland where Leilin's spiritual power seed had landed, two dark-green humanoid creatures arrived.
These two creatures were barely humanoid — they had roughly human torsos and two legs, but their bodies were covered in a kind of scale, and their eyes were blood-red with vertical pupils.
Their arms were even more terrifying: one side sprouted four arms, the other side three, and bony protrusions jutted from their heads.
"Since they have so many arms, I'll call them the 'Multi-Armed Tribe'!" Leilin named these alien creatures without a shred of restraint, striking the posture of a conqueror claiming dominion.
