In the past month, the treasure hunt at sea was in full swing. Basically, everyone who could go had gone.
If it had not been for the fact that he needed to recuperate, Walter, the City Lord of Lost Spirit City, would have followed suit.
Currently, not just a large number of Magi from the coastal areas or the islands had come to the Lost Spirit Sea to search for treasures, countless Magi had also swarmed over from the interior areas… There were many people, and they had also discovered many treasures. Many people were also involved in the fight for magical weapons, and the battle between the Magi had become more and more intense.
Even in such a fiery occasion, there were rumors that a large number of treasures were still appearing, which then attracted countless Magi again.
Wave after wave, more and more Magi were attracted over, and the people who came were increasingly stronger…
Such a grand battle involving a huge number of people, where more and more people were being swept in constantly, was rare even in 10,000 years.
All the large factions in the entire magic continent were involved. The Divine Mountain Immortal Island and the Earth Origin Sacred Land had also sent out many disciples. There were Great Magi, Great Archmagi, and Divine Magi who had come to search for treasures. It was said that even the Heavenly Divine Magi had been mobilized.
In addition, it was said that the Heavenly Divine Mage from the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, who had reappeared after more than 6,000 years, had passed away. Her heavenly-divine tier inheritance had been passed down to the current owner of the Nine Heavens Goddess Sword, Corsia.
When they heard that Corsia had immediately gone to cultivate in seclusion after obtaining the inheritance, many people speculated that after she came out of seclusion this time, she would most probably become the Island Master of the Divine Mountain Immortal Island.
The rumor that she would become the Island Master as soon as she came out of seclusion had not received a direct response. When Romo heard about it, he thought it was most likely true.
He knew that when Nolan left the mystic realm of Laha Island, she was almost at the end of her rope, and death was inevitable.
To be able to return to a place, which was equivalent to her hometown, after more than 6,000 years and die there was actually already very fortunate. This was true for Nolan as well as for the Divine Mountain Immortal Island.
After all, the Earth Origin Sacred Land, which was on par with the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, was not as lucky.
This time, not only did three Divine Magi from the Earth Origin Sacred Land die, there was also an old ancestor of Heavenly Divine Realm who had entered the Laha Island mystic realm, and till now, there had been no news of him. He had probably died long ago in the hands of that “ant” Ghost Deity…
Before he left, Romo had asked the City Lord of the Lost Spirit City to deliver a letter for him. The intended recipient was Corsia from the Divine Mountain Immortal Island.
Walter naturally agreed tactfully. He only replied that it would definitely be done, and did not ask Romo about his doubts, such as what had happened in the end, and what had happened to the Ghost Deity…
The sensible City Lord of Lost Spirit City had also learned some news, that Romo was from the Nicholas family of the Holy Light City in the Sebastian Kingdom.
On the fourth day after Romo had left the Lost Spirit City, an earth-shaking battle between Heavenly Divine Magi erupted in the depths of the Lost Spirit Sea. The battle was so loud that even the commotion of the heavens and earth was overshadowed. This battle had also shaken the magical world!
This battle, which had caused the sun and moon to dim, lasted for a full six days before it stopped. The 5,000-kilometer area with the shattered void and surging turbulence had become a forbidden land of death.
As for who the two sides were, no one knew yet.
The battle of the Heavenly Divine Magi did not reduce the passion of the treasure hunters. It even attracted countless people.
… . .
The news that a large number of treasures had been discovered in the Lost Spirit Sea had naturally reached the magical world of the Sebastian Kingdom.
In the territory of the Sebastian Kingdom, the four large factions had all sent out many people. There were also solo Magi who went alone or in teams to search for treasures.
Even the royal family of the Sebastian Kingdom had slowed down the investigation on the shocking appearance of magical beasts in the Imperial City and sent many Great Archmagi over.
In the midst of the “treasure-hunting spree” which was in full swing, there was a family that was as calm as a mountain—the Nicholas family.
It was not known what the clansmen of this family were thinking. They had actually ignored the news about treasures being obtained from the periphery of the Lost Spirit Sea and had not sent anyone out at all. The people inside continued to live an ordinary life.
Some of the interested retainers wanted to go; they did not stop them.
However, most of the retainers of the Nicholas family did not plan to make a move. It was as if they had also been infected by the mysterious calmness.
The reason why they had not gone was very simple. Even if they were to risk death outside, they might not necessarily obtain treasures. How could it be as comfortable as enjoying the ten times enhancement in the palace?
During the days in the Nicholas family, many people had gradually enjoyed their lives as a retainer. In fact, life was indeed very easy… They were not treated like slaves by the family, nor were they required to slave hard.
Their daily routine was usually to be sparring partners for the Nicholas family members.
The sparring between the Great Magi was carried out in the palace, while for Great Archmagi, they would accompany them to the back of the mountain for the sparring. An area with enhanced effects had been set up there.
Naturally, among the retainers, there were those who were puzzled as to why the family head had not sent a single clansman out, but they could not ask.
As for why the Nicholas family did not take action, it was naturally because of instructions from the Old Ancestor.
Romo himself did not plan to join in the fun, so he naturally did not want his descendants to be involved in the bloodbath.
Moreover, the mood of snatching treasures overseas was becoming increasingly crazy, and the area range affected by the battle was getting larger and larger. There were indeed many treasures in the Lost Spirit Sea, but there were more bloody battles. Those opportunities had all been exchanged with their lives… The descendants of the Nicholas family did not need the opportunities to that extent, so there was no need to risk their lives.
… . .
This night, in the Nicholas family palace.
The head of the family, Norton, was cultivating as usual. Suddenly, he felt a familiar thought appear in the sky above the clan territory. He suddenly withdrew from his state of cultivation and looked out in surprise.
Then, after realizing the other party’s identity, he immediately got up and flew into the sky.
At the same time, someone flew out from the other two rooms of the palace and into the sky.
The three of them met in the air. Norton, Dick, and Ron looked at each other and felt each other’s joy and excitement. Without another word, they flew higher up into the sky together.
No one in the palace had noticed their actions. Even Harris, a top Great Archmage, had not noticed.
After flying into the sky, the three of them saw a dark blue figure. They sensed a very familiar aura and immediately revealed looks of pleasant surprise.
This was the first time they had encountered the Old Ancestor, not in a dream given by the Old Ancestor, nor was this a moment of crisis!
Although the person in front of them was different from the silver-haired old man in their dream, his face, the way he looked at them, his aura, and so on were all familiar to them.
The three of them greeted in unison, unable to hide their excitement, “Old Ancestor!”
Romo smiled and nodded. “Yes.”
As he had previously said that he had once used a special magical power to go to the Calamity Mountain Range personally, after returning to the city this time, he thought he might as well meet them directly to explain things, so as not to go into their dream again.
Romo then told them about his journey.
… .
When they had learned that the Old Ancestor had caused a commotion in the magical world, Norton and the other two were so shocked that they lost control of their expressions.
Romo then handed a storage ring to Norton. These were all the treasures he had obtained on this trip.
Just sacred weapons alone, there were seven. There were also countless magical weapons, magical power secret manuals, and all kinds of natural treasures!
After he had finished giving instructions, Romo’s body had already started to fade slowly and dissipate in front of Norton and the other two.
The time limit for the temporary use had become zero, and Romo returned to the familiar ancestral hall.
Whether it was the current gains or the foreseeable future, this trip had a deep impact, far exceeding his expectations!
When he returned to the Sacred Spirit tablet, he no longer felt lonely because his wife was beside him.
Romo’s spiritual sense reached into Hera’s Sacred Spirit tablet and gently brushed past Hera’s soul. He muttered, “Hera, you have to wake up quickly. Wake up and look at me. Look at the descendants of the clan…”
