Chapter 1079 - A complete world

Chapter 1079: A complete world

Translator: Legge

‘Oh, sea, you’re just filled with water!‘

This was essentially the only thought in Ren Xiaosu’s mind as he stood on the threshold of the doorway.

As he walked through the palace, he was thinking that this should not be all there was to his inner world of meditation.

Although the palace was huge, it was nowhere near the mountain-sized leaf of that great sorcerer.

But now, he realized his true inner world was the vast sea beyond the door.

In other words, this was his inner spiritual world.

It was no wonder his steam locomotive was way better than Wang Congyang’s. It was no wonder his black saber could slash through practically everything. If mental strength were the highest caliber of weapon humanity had in the face of danger, then his willpower was probably the highest caliber one among all superhumans.

However, Ren Xiaosu was a little puzzled. Didn’t Melgor say there should only be a single item in one’s inner world? And that thing should be representative of the sorcerer himself?

But Ren Xiaosu felt that something was wrong in his inner world. Weren’t there also clouds floating in the sky? Although clouds were, strictly speaking, just water vapor, it somehow did not feel right to him.

With a thought, the floating palace in the sky quickly flew off into the distance.

Ren Xiaosu stood on the threshold as the raging wind blew in his face.

The palace soared over the blue sea for several hours. Just as Ren Xiaosu thought the sea was boundless, he suddenly saw land.

Ren Xiaosu looked ahead in a daze. The mountains and vegetation were dense, but there were no birds or land animals in sight.

Therefore, his inner world was actually not the sea but a complete world.

“Let’s end it here,” Ren Xiaosu muttered to himself. After that, he turned around and walked out of the palace, bringing his meditation to an end.

At this moment, Melgor was probably still doing his meditation. Ren Xiaosu peeked through the gap in his tent and could see the flickering campfire and a figure sitting cross-legged in their tent.

Actually, when Ren Xiaosu saw Melgor meditating a few days ago, he thought it was a sorcerer’s way of resting. After a session of meditation, he would appear a hundred times more energetic.

But today, Melgor explained that a sorcerer’s meditation could not substitute for sleep. Although one’s mental state would be great after meditating, their bodily functions still required deep sleep to recover.

When a sorcerer meditated, their bodily functions remained active throughout, so meditating was not a replacement for sleep.

In Melgor’s opinion, it was rather tiring to meditate because he had to coordinate that with his sleep schedule.

But Ren Xiaosu was hardly affected. To be honest, he did not even know if there was any point in meditating. After a long meditation session, he might only gain an additional drop in the sea, but that would be just a trivial improvement overall.

It was not that Ren Xiaosu was lazy, but he felt he could make use of this time to do something more meaningful. For example, he could sit at the campfire and read the Introduction to Sorcery to see if its author had ever expressed any meaningful insights.

Before Ren Xiaosu could page through the book, he saw Melgor ending his meditation and walking out of his tent.

Melgor did not seem to have expected Ren Xiaosu to still be reading. “Why aren’t you asleep?”

“Oh, I’ve just finished meditating.” Ren Xiaosu said, “But I couldn’t sleep yet, so I wanted to read a bit more so that I can quickly become a sorcerer.”

“Any results from your meditation? Did you get to see your inner world of meditation?” Melgor asked.

Ren Xiaosu’s acting chops as the Northwest’s best actor was put into use once again. He shook his head and said in a dejected tone, “Maybe it’s just as you said. It’s better not to waste time meditating if I don’t have the Eye of True Sight. But I’m still very curious. What’s the scale of most sorcerers’ inner worlds when they first start meditating?”

Melgor laughed. “Actually, the majority of sorcerers are the same. When they first start meditating, they might only see a small puddle or a small stone in their inner world. Only a few are talented enough to see a river at the beginning. So if you really manage to find an Eye of True Sight someday and only see a pebble in your inner world, you don’t have to feel disheartened. That’s how it is for most people.”

Ren Xiaosu thought to himself, ‘If I were to tell you what I saw, I’m afraid that all of the sorcerers in the magus order would get depressed….‘

Of course, it was more likely that they wouldn’t even believe him.

Ren Xiaosu suddenly said, “Then if I want to search for an Eye of True Sight, how should I go about looking for it? I heard from the sheeple that I can find it in a river. Can I go to that river and search for the rocks there?”

Melgor started laughing. “They lied to you…. Wait, what are you doing?”

Melgor looked at Ren Xiaosu in surprise as he turned around and went over to the two servants’ tent. Then he woke them up and gave each of them another punch before returning to the campfire.

Ren Xiaosu said to Melgor, “Please, carry on.”

Li Chengguo and Liu Ting’s wails could be heard coming from the tent next to them, leaving Melgor speechless. What the hell!

Initially, Melgor wanted to tell Ren Xiaosu, “Actually, I was only messing around by getting you to read the Introduction to Sorcery.”

But looking at Ren Xiaosu’s attitude, he was starting to feel apprehensive about confessing!

He was clearly a sorcerer, so how could he be afraid of a boor like him? However, Melgor felt extremely guilty.

When Ren Xiaosu saw that Melgor did not say anything, he asked again, “What did they lie to me about?”

“Strictly speaking, they did not lie to you.” Melgor hesitated for a moment before saying, “It’s true that the stones can be found in a river, which is due to the accumulation of ore that’s been washed into the river over tens of thousands of years. However, the river has long been controlled by the archmages’ power in the secular world, so you can’t find any Eyes of True Sight in the river anymore. There’s only one way for anyone to become a sorcerer, and that’s to buy one!”

Liu Ting’s bitter voice came from the tent. “Lord Melgor, can you finish your sentences in one breath?!”

Melgor raised an eyebrow. “He didn’t even let me finish speaking before he beat you two up! How can you blame me for that!”

Li Chengguo said in pain, “You should at least speak faster!”

Melgor and his two servants suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the group had slowly turned strange ever since Ren Xiaosu joined them.

If it were the past, these two sorcerer servants would not have dared to shout at Melgor like that, though this was also probably related to Li Chengguo and Liu Ting getting beaten up.

But for some reason, Melgor suddenly felt there was no need to be so strict in their group.

Before becoming a sorcerer, Melgor was just a normal young man who visited small taverns with his friends to drink and brag. But ever since he became a sorcerer, his friends started showing him more respect. He was no longer a normal person.

Meanwhile, he had paid a huge price to become a sorcerer.

Melgor suddenly said to Ren Xiaosu, “Do you remember what I told you? Some people waste their entire lives in pursuit of their sorcerer dreams.”

“I remember,” Ren Xiaosu said.

“Therefore, my heartfelt advice is that you don’t pursue this sorcerer dream any further.. Because you’ll end up losing more than you’ll gain.”
