Sometime later, after waking from his sleep, Yang Ling suddenly felt that there was a naked woman in his embrace. Opening his eyes to look, seeing the exhausted Yuna who had just woken up, he knew instantly what had happened.

“Brother Yang, I...”

Yang Ling stared straight at her naked body, and Yuna turned red in shame, immediately standing up to put on her clothes. She then stuttered as she explained what exactly had happened.

A Virgin Flower Band that could neutralize any poison?

Understanding what had transpired, Yang Ling examined closely the condition of his body. Indeed, that scorching feeling had disappeared, and his body was filled with a pulsing Wizard Power and life force.

“Brother Yang, since we committed the act, you are now an outsider who has become a Heavenly Fox, and you will receive an ability granted by the God of War. Recite the incantation with me to see what ability you gained!” Seeing that Yang Ling had recovered, Yuna sighed with relief. She then recalled the records of the historical annals, telling Yang Ling to recite an obscure incantation with her.

The incantation was very long. At the start, Yang Ling had felt that the incantation was clunky and thus recited it very slowly. But for some reason, he got faster the more he read it, and in the end, he recited the incantation even faster than Yuna did, as if he had been born knowing this ancient, obscure incantation.

As the pair recited the incantation, a ray of light appeared in the sky, getting brighter and brighter. A magnificent energy gathered in the sky, releasing waves upon waves of ripples.

Roar...

As the energy in the sky got more intense, there were even the faint roars of fierce beasts. They seemed to have come from the faraway horizon, but at the same time from the Wizard’s Pagoda that was not far away from them. If Yang Ling and Yuna had lifted their heads to look, they would have realized that the lifelike images on the Wizard’s Pagoda were becoming clearer.

After sensing the pulsing energy in the sky and hearing the low, powerful roars, the Horned Bee Beasts and tarantulas laid on the ground, motionless. In fact, even the mostly recovered Unicorn looked fearfully at the transforming Wizard’s Pagoda. Even though it did not know what was going on, it was a psychic Magical Beast, and could instinctively sense the threat that came from a giant high-level Magical Beast.

The ray of light in the sky continued to brighten, slowly concentrating to form two balls of colorful light, shining evenly on Yang Ling and Yuna. It did not scatter for a long time.

With the colorful light bathing them, Yang Ling and Yuna could feel their mental energy increase immensely, intertwining through the connection in their hearts. Furthermore, after absorbing a large amount of that light, their entire bodies began to glow, sometimes silver and at other times red. Sometimes, they would even mysteriously vanish from where they sat...

After the ray of light had retreated, a pentagonal star became faintly visible between Yuna’s brows. This was the same for Yang Ling, the pentagonal star faintly visible around the pagoda-shaped brand. Sometimes, a streak of light would flash through the symbol.

Could this be the legendary Illusory Mirage Twin World that could only be trained by a couple?

After finishing the incantation, Yuna became excited as she stroked the mark of the pentagonal star on her forehead and recalled the wonderful ray of light. Legend had it that a pair of Heavenly Foxes who were truly in love would receive the highest of blessings from the God of War — the Illusory Mirage Twin World.

The Illusory Mirage Twin World is the highest form of the Magical Illusory Spell Formation and was split into nine levels, each level more powerful than the last. Unlike the Magical Illusory Spell Formation, it could simulate any environment the caster had ever seen. The more powerful the caster’s mental energy, the more realistic the simulation was. After training the ability to a high level, the traps and Magical Beasts within the illusory world would even inflict tangible damage. It was immensely powerful.

After receiving the blessing of the God of War, the couple could cast the Illusory Mirage Twin World individually or as a pair. They could overlap two, or even more, simulations. For example, they could create a region of lightning within a desert, or a volcano within a vast ocean.

As long as the mental energy of the enemy trapped within the illusory world was weaker than the two of them combined, they would forever be unable to dispel the ever-changing illusory world. They would either go insane, or be trapped there until they died!

With Yuna’s explanation, Yang Ling hesitated no longer, immediately casting the Illusory Mirage Twin World together with Yuna, simulating the lake outside the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda. The lake of the water was clear, ocean plants drifting in the wind. In fact, there were even the roars of unknown wild beasts coming from far away. It was exactly the same as the environment outside.

An illusion?

Yang Ling rubbed his eyes, and looked in disbelief at the lake that had suddenly appeared near the Wizard’s Pagoda. He could never have expected that not only would his poison be successfully purged after doing the deed with Yuna, he had also obtained such a miraculous ability.

After exiting the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda and ascertaining that the Illusory Mirage Twin World was identical to the real world, Yang Ling found two more surprises. In the past, he could only send his consciousness into the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda, but his body had never been able to enter. But now, even his body could enter the space at will.

Furthermore, Yuna could only passively enter the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda, but she could now enter the domain at will, even when omitting the Wizard Mantra. Even though she could not move in and out together with Horned Bee Beasts or tarantulas, this was much more convenient compared to the past.

If my body could enter and exit the space in an instant, isn’t this even more useful for Wizard Techniques like the Earth Evasion spell?

Yang Ling began thinking of the possibilities, of the practical uses of the domain of the Wizard’s Pagoda. When encountering a powerful enemy, he could instantly leave using the domain, meaning that he could retreat to safety no matter what situation he landed himself in. When he was attacking, he could use it to instantly appear in front of the enemy, dealing a fatal blow without much effort!

Without hesitation, after coming up with the strategic value of the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda, he quickly tested out his ideas. In the end, while the logic was sound, the practical effects were nothing to be amazed at.

If he entered the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda by the side of the lake, he could only appear again near the lake. The furthest he could go was only a few dozen steps away from the lake, which was far from the desired effect.

But as his mental energy got stronger, the Illusory Mirage Twin World would level up. Yang Ling believed that this would be the same for the method he used to enter or exit the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda. Perhaps someday, he would be able to enter the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda by the side of the lake and instantly appear at Wissen Town, or even the far away Montson.

Looking at the motionless Flowing Venom on the ground in the distance, thinking about his mysterious poison techniques and terrifying mental energy, Yuna could feel her scalp crawl. She gently laid in Yang Ling’s embrace and said, “Brother Yang, what are we going to do with the assassin’s body?”

After her abilities had improved, even Yang Ling had difficulties dispelling her Magical Illusory Spell Formation with any speed. Originally, she had hoped to trap the assassin until he died, but she did not expect the Magical Illusory Spell Formation to be that fragile before the enemy. The assassin had broken her spell using his powerful mental energy in mere moments.

“We should not waste such good fertilizer!”

After searching Flowing Venom’s clothing and ascertaining that he had not missed any treasures, Yang Ling ordered a Withered Tree Warrior to bury Flowing Venom’s corpse in the forest of Arrow Bamboo. He buried him deep, as if Flowing Venom was fertilizer, venting out all of his grievances. Following that, he closely examined the items he had found from the corpse of the other party.

Flowing Venom’s dagger was incredibly sharp, able to easily sever the strong spider’s web. Even though it could not be compared to the Blood Elf Dagger, it was still a treasure. Of course, it was incomparable to the items Yang Ling found in the Space Ring.

After sorting the items out carefully, the two of them found many rare treasures among their spoils of war. There were Essence Crystals of high-level Magical Beasts the size of a fist, Magical Teleportation Scrolls worth a small fortune, magical staffs with pulsing Magical Energy... Besides those, there were a large number of various powders and medicine, and countless other materials used to create poison.

After flipping through the books, Yuna’s expression became more grave. She would search according to the explanation of the books, finding out which powder or medicine corresponded to the descriptions.

The colorless, odorless Gut Severing Powder...

The Corpse Rotting Water, specially crafted to break through Battle Energy and Magical Energy...

The Dragon Tongue Orchid that could be activated using mental energy...

...

Yuna swallowed with difficulty every time she discovered a lethal poison. If not for the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda greatly limiting Flowing Venom’s ability, she and Yang Ling would have surely been killed. If he had the time and opportunity to use his poison techniques, there might not be many people on the entire Tailun Continent that could be his match!”

“Brother Yang, where are we going to toss these poisons?” Yuna nearly vomited in disgust when she saw a poison made using an embryo. She turned pale, losing the courage to read on anymore.

After a moment’s deliberation, Yang Ling quickly tucked the few books and various poisons into his Space Ring. “No, Yuna, keep all of these. A lethal poison could kill, but sometimes, it can also be used to heal!”

Other than Wizard Techniques used to control souls, there were also Wizard Techniques used to train poison techniques recorded on the stele. According to the explanation on the stele, one could become an incredibly powerful Poison Wizard as long as they trained those techniques to a high level.

In the past, due to his limited energy and the lack of suitable ingredients, he had not worked on his poison techniques. But now that he had Flowing Venom’s notes on cultivating poison techniques, as well as the large number of ready-made poisons and materials, the situation was different.

Having personally witnessed how terrifying Flowing Venom had been, and experiencing how powerful poison techniques could be, Yang Ling had no choice but to reconsider the future path of his training. A powerful physical body was very important, and the ability to control souls was imperative, but if he managed to learn a masterful array of poison techniques, Yang Ling believed that it would add to his current repertoire and boost his overall abilities.

The strength and energy of an individual was limited. There was strength in numbers, and this was true even in another world!

Having come into contact with factions with great influence, he understood that his current level of abilities was far from enough if he truly wanted to stand his ground in this world. After a moment’s deliberation, he came up with a basic plan.

If he encountered a powerful opponent, he would not be able to do anything no matter how many low-level Magical Beasts he had. He had to tame more high-level Magical Beasts in the Terras Forest after he returned to Wissen Town. Furthermore, he had to quickly increase the strength of his territory, and nurture a large batch of loyal guards and warriors.

Compared to the Battle Energy and magical spells of this world, the Wizard Technique that allowed people to tame Magical Beasts was undoubtedly the fastest way to boost his aides’ abilities. Grabbing Yuna by her slender waist, Yang Ling came up with a bold plan. He was going to teach Yuna, Alice, Goode and the rest basic Wizard Techniques.

When the group showed the fruits of their training, they would each have a Magical Beast army of their own. Combining all of their abilities, he would be able to create a massive Magical Beast army, shaking everybody around him. At the same time, he would be able to concentrate his energy on roaming the Tailun Continent, or even go on adventures in the mysterious world beyond the continent. He would cultivate high-level Wizard Techniques, tame high-level, or even Level Surpassing Magical Beasts, forming a powerful Magical Beast army capable of both attacking and defending.
