“These are ancient godly runewords. They are making… making…” Cain opened his mouth, but he was so excited that he couldn’t even put a sentence together, and his goatee shook and swayed.
“It is writing out a control technique… This is… the technique that can control the Sky Castle? What else? No, this is too fast! I can’t remember all this! We need to document it; quick!”
Akara instantly took out a giant piece of divvy crystal from her storage ring, put a strand of magic energy into it, and started to record all the godly runewords that were flashing in the air. However, she quickly gave up and sighed, “Godly runewords are way too profound, and they are hard to understand. Ordinary divvy crystals can’t document all of this. It looks like we can only rely on our memories!”
The two mad scientists opened their eyes wide and observed the images, patterns, and texts that were flashing before them without even blinking.
Fei didn’t say anything; he was only trying to memorize these runewords.
After getting [Learn], which was one of the three miraculous skills, he obtained photographic memory on top of getting more intelligence.
Although the godly runewords created a lot of images, patterns, and texts, and they were shot out of the moving nine-level Mythical Altar, Fei didn’t try to understand them on the spot and only decided to memorize everything directly. Somehow, the vast amount of information was engraved into his mind precisely.
Akara and Cain were much inferior in this aspect.
They were both much older. Even though they studied magic and had a lot of stamina, they felt dizzy after staring at the moving runewords for a long time. They soon gave up on memorizing all this information and looked at Fei. They didn’t dare to make a sound, afraid that it would disturb Fei and make him miss half a symbol.
This entire process lasted about two to three hours.
During this entire time, the nine levels of the Mythical Altar continued to move at different speed, rhythm, and frequency. The silver runes continued to dash out of the Mythical Altar as if they had lives of their own, and they floated in the air and combined into many ancient images, patterns, and texts in mysterious sequences.
This process seemed like a movie, and it was really quick.
The red, evil hell energy that filled the entire space inside the mountain was sucked into the spinning Mythical Altar as if it were water beside a dry sponge. As time passed by, the red energy that permeated the air quickly weakened and got lighter.
The [Worldstone] that was placed on the top of the altar was being purified at the same time. The red energy flames that enveloped the crystal slowly died down, revealing that dreamy and fascinating sky-blue color from the top corner.
Fei also noticed that while this process was happening, the size of the [Worldstone] was decreasing bit by bit. Although this change was minuscule, it was occurring, meaning that the operation of the Mythical Altar was consuming a vast amount of energy.
After one more hour, just as Fei felt dizzy as a ton of foreign and new information was jammed into his head, the rumbling noises that were sounding in this space quieted down. It was a great thing since Fei felt like his head was about to explode.
The spinning nine-level Mythical Altar slowed down, and the silver runes that were floating in the air also quickly flashed back into the Mythical Altar like birds returning to their nests.
At the same time, all the profound images, patterns, and texts also dispersed into the area, nowhere to be seen.
The inside of the mountain felt humid and heated.
The high heat was generated from the stone plates of the Mythical Altar grinding against each other, and it was making this closed area very hot.
That mysterious stone pillar which stood on top of the Mythical Altar had absorbed a lot of energy through this purification process, and changes took place on it.
Although its size didn’t change much, a lot of its rough, stone-like surface fell off, revealing the smooth and reflective surface underneath.
The surface underneath looked like white jade, and there wasn’t any patterns or images engraved on it. However, a warm light was coming off it, and there was a wave of spiritual fluctuations that only Fei could sense.
After the Mythical Altar stopped moving, a silver light flashed by, and that mysterious stone pillar quickly shrunk back to the size of a forearm and dashed into Fei’s body. It looked like it went back to its old state and fell into a deep sleep.
“Huh? The [Worldstone] isn’t completely purified. Only about one-tenth…”
A bit surprised by the mysterious stone pillar’s behavior, Fei suddenly saw that the Nightmare Mode [Worldstone] which was placed at the top of the Mythical Altar wasn’t completely purified. Only about one-tenth of it turned back to blue, and the rest nine-tenths were still bloody-red and filled with evil hell energy.
“This isn’t strange. This [Worldstone] is a few hundred times bigger than the last one. The last one could be purified in one go, but it is hard to purify this one in one sitting. We have to repeat this process several times before it could be completely purified!”
Cain was like a living encyclopedia from Diablo World, and he quickly explained the reasons to Fei.
After some thoughts, he added, “However, the purified portion of the [Worldstone] could already be used. It is rare to see both pure and evil energies residing inside the same [Worldstone], and they aren’t fighting each other. Perhaps a [Worldstone] that contains both energies is the most powerful and terrifying!”
“Eh, it looks like the Mythical Altar needs some rest before it can be used again. This is all that we can get this time…” Akara nodded as she pondered. Then, she suddenly recalled something and got excited. She shouted as she pulled on Fei’s robe, “Quick! Write down all the godly runewords and the ancient texts that you memorized! Don’t try to fool us! I know that your memory is excellent, and you have memorized all of it! Quick! Quick! Quick!”
“Yeah, you always run from us when we meet! You can’t run this time! If you don’t write down the information, we will, we will…” Cain also got very anxious. After a while, he thought of a great threat and laughed proudly, “We will stop working! Haha!”
Fei smiled when he saw their impatience, and he didn’t refuse. After the three of them returned to the [Godly King Palace], Fei wrote down one percent of the information that he remembered, and that alone took about one hour while hundreds of pages were used.
After that, he put the brush away and said, “The images, patterns, and texts that those godly runewords created are just too much, and I can’t write everything down in one sitting. Here are about 100 sheets of information, and they are enough for you two to study for several months. After you figure them all out, I will draw more for you!”
Akara and Cain knew that Fei was telling the truth, so they had to nod and agree.
The two of them grabbed all the papers and went back to their laboratory that was built in the mysterious stone room through a portal. They looked like two kids who got their hands on a big cake.
Right now, there was a delighted expression on Fei’s face.
He discovered the Sky Castle’s biggest secret just now!
