Chapter 209 - Changes in the Sorcerer World
“Relax,” on a flat area of land, Chen Heng had an amiable look on his face as he looked at the group of children in front of them and spoke softly.
“Just put your hand on it, no need to be nervous.”
The children nodded, but looking at Chen Heng, they could not help but feel a bit nervous.
There were people in the surroundings maintaining order.
The children walked up onto the stone slabs.
As they went onto the stone slab, the formation on the stone slab was activated.
Faint light covered the surroundings and slowly spread out.
Looking at that light, Chen Heng gave a slight smile and said, “Very good, continue.”
Hearing his encouragement, the children continued to slowly walk up.
Following this, the stone slab continued to light up, giving off different reactions.
Soon, these children had all been tested.
Chen Heng picked up pen and paper and wrote down the results from this experiment.
“Mm, the standard deviation is very small.
“Looks like using faith energy to replace magic stones to carry out Sorcerer talent examinations is still viable.”
Looking at his results, Chen Heng thought to himself.
Long ago, Chen Heng had the idea of using a new method for carrying out the Sorcerer talent examination.
The traditional test used magic stones to power a Sorcerer Formation.
This not only consumed large amounts of resources but also required someone to draw a Sorcerer Formation; it was quite troublesome.
Chen Heng had discovered that there seemed to be some kind of relationship between faith energy and Sorcerer talent.
Those who gathered large amounts of faith energy seemed to have a high chance of having Sorcerer talent.
Because of this, Chen Heng had started considering the similarities between faith energy and magic power, and he thought about using faith energy to power the test.
This way, the activation and maintenance of the Sorcerer Formation only required 1/1000th of the amount of energy that the traditional method required.
It was very great progress.
Of course, the most difficult part was actually creating faith energy.
In the current circumstances, apart from Chen Heng, who had the Faith Mark, no one else could do this.
As such, it could be said that only Chen Heng could do this right now.
However, that was enough.
After using faith energy to condense faith energy crystals, and drawing up Sorcerer Formations, this created easy ways to test Sorcerer talent.
This could be called a special magic item, and as long as one periodically provided the faith energy crystal with faith energy, it could be repeatedly used until the Sorcerer Formation broke down.
All in all, it was a big breakthrough.
In order to create this, Chen Heng had spent a great deal of effort, but it had been worth it.
With this, they would be able to discover many people with Sorcerer talent, allowing Chen Heng to bring them to the academies he had created.
After a few decades, as Chen Heng’s Apprentices grew, the power at his hands would continue to develop.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng could not help but nod.
At the moment, the testing had already begun.
There were a large number of tests being done all over the world, and there were already some children who had been detected to have Sorcerer talent and been sent to the academy. They were the first batch of students, but they definitely would not be the last.
In the future, there would be more and more Sorcerers.
“It’s about time to leave…” Thinking about everything he had done over the years, Chen Heng’s gaze was calm as he thought to himself.
Over the past few years, he had done many things and changed various things in this world, turning this entire world into his territory.
Now, it was time for him to leave.
Now that he had the Faith Mark, he essentially had a key to enter this world. In the future, he would be able to enter this world at will.
Even if he left this world, he would not face any obstructions if he wanted to enter it again.
By now, Chen Heng had already done what he needed to do in this world.
Now, he just needed to wait and no longer had to do anything.
Even though he had stayed in this world for many years, Chen Heng had not forgotten why he had entered here.
He still needed to search for other Sorcerer legacies.
He had obtained the power of the Faith mark and the positive faith energy gathered over countless years in this world. Even true Sorcerers would not be much of a deal in front of him.
However, this great power was not something that he had accumulated himself.
Right now, everything he had was from the Faith Mark, and it came from this world’s positive faith energy.
If he lost it, he would immediately return to his original state.
As such, he needed to collect more Sorcerer legacies.
His own body did not have this faith energy and would not be as strong.
Of course, based on his past experience, Chen Heng guessed that after he returned to his own body, the Faith Mark would most likely go back with him, just like the Fortune Mark.
These unique marks seemed to contain a mysterious power, and it seemed to be formed from the origin of worlds, containing great power.
The Fortune Mark and Faith Mark had been obtained from different worlds, but they had similarities: They both represented incredibly great power.
………
Chen Heng had a feeling that as his journey continued, he would encounter even more marks.
…
Since Chen Heng had decided to leave, he acted quite quickly.
Half a month later, Chen Heng disappeared from his residence and silently left this world.
There were not any great disturbances; as the Faith Mark’s power rippled out, a set of massive golden doors opened.
Looking at the golden doors, Chen Heng did not hesitate and stepped out, leaving this little world.
After he stepped out, the scenery around him changed.
A faint sea breeze blew at him, and he could smell the scent of the sea.
Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes and looked into the distance.
Ahead was a vast ocean, and behind him was a small island.
The scenery around him was quite familiar; it was that region from before he had entered the little world.
Chen Heng stood in the air and felt the sea breeze as he silently looked into the distance.
Everything still looked roughly the same, but after all those years, the Merfolk had disappeared.
Chen Heng looked around, and after gaining his bearings, he headed forwards.
His memory was very good, and even though many years had passed, he could still remember the map of this region.
He floated above the ocean and travelled for many days before reaching his destination, the Hemu region.
The familiar city appeared before him, causing him to space out and stare for a while.
This was Helo City outside the Hunter’s House.
Helo City was the center of this region, and it connected to many places.
After many years, this place had not changed much, and it was just as chaotic.
It seemed that the war still was not over.
Chen Heng’s expression was calm as he silently walked forwards.
Soon, he obtained the information that he wanted.
The war indeed had not concluded yet.
Over the past few years, not only had the war not concluded, but it had become even bigger and seemed to become more and more critical.
A few years ago, the Mogow Academy and its factions had begun fighting with other academies.
The fighting continuously escalated, and there seemed to be no end in sight.
In order to secure victory, Mogow Academy had undone a seal in its academy, releasing a monster that had been sealed by a senior 1,000 years ago.
After that monster had been released, it had killed a large number of Sorcerers and devoured a large number of lives, turning them into its own power.
Because of this monster’s power, Mogow Academy had taken the upper hand, but as time passed and it devoured too many Sorcerer and ordinary people’s lives, it had run out of control and attacked Mogow Academy.
It had devoured a large number of Sorcerers and controlled many mortals and had them attack other Academies, escalating the war.
A few smaller Academies that had not participated in the war had been destroyed, and many of the Sorcerers had been taken under its control, including many true Sorcerers.
This monster called itself the Heart-Devouring Devil, and it was a powerful monster from the fog region; it had the ability to control souls.
Under the continued assaults from this monster, the war in the Hemu region became more and more intense.
Chen Heng also found some information regarding the Hunter’s House.
The Hunter’s House had already disappeared not too long ago.
The Heart-Devouring Devil had led the factions under its control to attack a few Academies.
It had taken the Hunter’s House’s territory, and it devoured most of its resources.
The Hunter’s House had been forced to gather and resist the Heart-Devouring Devil.
During the battle, the Principal had been devoured by the Heart-Devouring Devil, and the Vice-Principal Ariel and others had been taken under its control.
Following this, the Hunter’s House had disappeared.
This matter shook the entire region.
Within the various Sorcerer organisations, the Hunter’s House was not that strong, and it was a relatively small organisation. However, it still had a few true Sorcerers and the Principal’s strength was not weak either.
Even such a faction had been easily destroyed by the Heart-Devouring Devil.
This matter shocked many people, and many people no longer dared to stay in the region.
In the past, Helo City had a decent number of Sorcerers, but now there were very few.
If that was the case even in Helo City, then one could only imagine how it was in other places.
After lightly sighing, Chen Heng left this place and activated his Fortune Mark.
Following this, Chen Heng was able to see traces of fate.
Before, it was not so easy for him to see the traces of fate, but now, as he had become stronger, it seemed that the Fortune Mark had also been strengthened. This allowed him to see more things.
Chen Heng could clearly see traces of fate, and he began to walk in a certain direction.
Chen Heng soon arrived at a secretive place.
“Is it here?” Chen Heng looked around.
This place did not have many people around, and the scenery was not that special either.
“The elemental particle density here is quite low. Charlie, are you hiding here…”
After arriving, Chen Heng looked around and muttered to himself.
Following this, he slowly advanced.
Soon, he came before a cliff. He casually waved his hand and got rid of the cover, revealing a passageway.
After walking in, many unique Sorcerer Formations appeared; they were all powerful traps.
However, facing these things, Chen Heng was quite calm.
The magic skills landed on his body but were stopped by a formless energy.
Just like that, Chen Heng walked to the central place, a sparse area.
“Who is it?” a grave and nervous voice sounded out.
Following this, a middle-aged man appeared, dressed in red robes, a wary look on his face.
It was Chen Heng’s teacher, Charlie.
Before, Chen Heng had used the Fortune Mark to search for fates connected to his, and he had found his way here.
“You’re…”
After seeing Chen Heng, Charlie’s expression changed, “Ed, is it you? No, wait!”
A look of delight appeared on his face, before he thought of something and became wary again, “You’re not Ed! Damn you Mordo, you didn’t even let off my student?”
A hateful look appeared on his face as he spoke.
Evidently, he thought that Chen Heng had been controlled, just like Ariel and the others.
Looking at Charlie, Chen Heng lightly sighed and said, “Teacher, it’s me.”
Hearing this, Charlie’s heart trembled.
“You’re Ed?”
Looking at Chen Heng, he said warily, “Show me your mental ripples.”
Chen Heng did not say anything and did as Charlie asked.
The unique mental ripples appeared, spreading out in the surroundings.
Sensing these mental ripples, a look of joy appeared on Charlie’s face as he confirmed Chen Heng’s identity.
The Heart-Devouring Devil’s ability could control others’ souls, but those who it controlled would have their mental ripples twisted.
Even though Chen Heng’s mental ripples were somewhat different to before, they were not twisted.
Evidently, he had not been controlled by the Heart-Devouring Devil.
“What is going on?”
Looking at Chen Heng, Charlie let out a breath, “How did you find this place?”
“This… It’s a long story,” Chen Heng said as he told Charlie about everything that had happened.
He told Charlie about how he had been chased by the Merfolk into the little world, but he hid some details.
“Following that, I escaped from that world and came to find you,” Chen Heng said.
In front of him, Charlie looked completely dumbfounded.
