Chapter 32: Overseas Island

“Am… am I going to die?”

Ricks still couldn’t believe that this was reality.

He had once been chased by sorcerers from many associations in the Upper Realm. He did not sleep for seven days and seven nights and still ran to the Lower Realm with his last breath.

In this Lower Realm where magic power was scarce, after spending decades, he finally raised his strength to the Magister Realm. In the end, he was defeated in one move.

Ye Tian heard Ricks’ murmurs and did not reply. He rubbed his fingertips and a wisp of flame rose, landing on the other party and quickly burning him to ashes.

The evil magic ritual was forced to stop. The door let out a loud bang as if some creature was colliding behind it, wanting to descend into this world.

Unfortunately, without enough magic power, the portal eventually perished with the darkness.

A large number of soldiers rushed over with weapons. The new Monarch walked at the front.

“Mage Ye, are you alright?”

The Monarch looked worried.

Ye Tian nodded gently.

“Go back. The danger has been resolved.”

Without giving the Monarch a chance to ask further, Ye Tian landed beside Annie.

“Don’t just stand there. Go into the house and rest. I’ll get you some medicine. I made it myself. It’s very effective.”

He helped Annie back into the house. The battle just now had only damaged a wall. This was still very good.

Outside the house, the soldier commander walked to the Monarch’s side and asked,

“Your Majesty, what should we do next?”

The Monarch took a look and said, “It’s fine. Go back.”

The commander didn’t ask further. He turned around and informed his subordinates. Soon, all the soldiers left the Ye family residence while guarding the Monarch.

However, things didn’t calm down so quickly. The darkness that Ricks had created had a huge impact. Many citizens in Maple Forest City saw this scene.

That night, the Monarch gave the order to inform them that Ricks was called a remnant of the Frost Snow Empire and was easily dealt with by Mage Ye Tian alone.

Late at night, the Monarch sat in the main hall that was dealing with matters. He did not feel sleepy, even though the servants had come to inform him several times.

Ricks’ arrival had left a deep impression on him. Even though he was surrounded by soldiers, he still did not feel safe.

When Ricks faced Ye Tian, the fact that he could not withstand a single blow showed how terrifying Ye Tian was.

“Why should I be worried? I should be happy. Although Mage Ye Tian is powerful, at least he doesn’t have any thoughts about the throne.”

The Monarch tried to console himself from another angle.

In fact, no Monarch of that country could allow someone too strong and unbalanced to exist in the Empire.

However, no matter how many methods he thought of, he could not find a safe way to deal with Ye Tian.

…

On the second day, craftsmen came to Ye Tian’s residence to repair it. A wall was perfectly repaired in less than a day.

In the following days, Ye Tian took care of Annie for a period of time. When she had recovered, he entered seclusion again.

The accumulated points had an effect on increasing one’s strength, but the effect was slightly worse when it came to breaking through realms. This had nothing to do with strength, but with one’s mental state.

According to Ye Tian’s speculation, he might have a chance to consider entering the Upper Realm after entering the Great Magister realm.

Days passed and the Monarch would visit occasionally. Unfortunately, he did not see Ye Tian most of the time.

Ye Tian had been in seclusion for three months and realized that he was still lacking something to enter the Great Magister realm in the short term. However, he could not say for sure.

Thus, Ye Tian began to consider the problem of Annie’s stagnation in strength.

Actually, when Ye Tian first saw Ricks, he wanted to capture him and get some information from him.

After all, Ricks came from the Upper Realm, a place he had never been to.

However, Ricks’s madness exceeded Ye Tian’s expectations. He did not expect this person to fight to the death.

If Ye Tian did not want to die, he naturally had to give it his all.

“You’re going overseas tomorrow?”

At the dining table, Annie paused in her actions when she heard Ye Tian’s words and stared at him with widened eyes.

Ye Tian nodded.

Annie swallowed her food. “Can I come with you?”

Ye Tian immediately shook his head and explained before Annie could speak.

“If you eat what I give you on time, it will help you change your aptitude. Now, we have to work hard together. We can’t waste time. There’s still a long way to go, understand?”

Over the years, Ye Tian collected many medicinal herbs. With his extremely high comprehension and understanding of medicinal properties, he refined many medicinal herbs with obvious effects.

He left a portion for Windsor and the rest for Annie.

…

Not long after, Ye Tian set off alone. He had a rough idea of the location he had yet to reach.

Ye Tian flew through the air and used his magic power to maintain himself. He quickly headed over and arrived at an overseas island in half a month.

“A strong magical aura. This is the place.”

After sensing it in midair, Ye Tian released his aura and landed on the island.

Many people sensed the terrifying magic power and walked out one after another with wary expressions as they stared at Ye Tian who was slowly descending.

“Who’s in charge here?” Ye Tian looked around and asked coldly.

An elderly man walked out from the crowd and said, “From your accent, it doesn’t sound like you’re from here.”

“Yes, you should have heard of me. My name is Ye Tian.”

Ye Tian introduced himself calmly. However, when the people around him heard his name, their reactions became intense and many of them gathered their magic.

“Stop, all of you!”

The old man hurriedly stopped him. He had already sensed the bottomless magic power in Ye Tian’s body and understood the difference between the two of them. Even if Ye Tian was alone, it was enough to bury them.

Ye Tian glanced at him.

“I’m here to ask some questions. I don’t want to kill anyone. You’d better not force me.”

The old man nodded.

“Please sit down inside.”

He followed the old man to a study room and sat opposite each other.

Ye Tian did not hesitate and briefly explained Annie’s situation.

The elder frowned and thought for two seconds.

“Actually, it’s not a matter of talent or aptitude. It’s just that there’s an upper limit to the natural magic power in our world, and it’s not enough to support the appearance of too many powerful mages.”

He had studied magic for many years and knew the situation in this world very well. He immediately explained it to Ye Tian in detail.

It was rumored that in the early days, there were not many restrictions in this world. Later on, too many people ascended to the Upper Realm and there was a conflict. In order to contain it, the Upper Realm restricted the Lower Realm, so that not many experts would appear in the Lower Realm at once and there would be a situation of ascending.

Later on, the mages gradually got used to the seal. If Ye Tian wanted Annie to break through now, he had to gather his strength to break the seal and attract more magic power.
