Chapter 630: The Palace Enters the Game

"Sure enough, as the Second Hall said, the situation in the Wuji Realm is not quite right." The Sixth Hall lowered his voice as he walked towards the door of the church.

"Well, I've been here once before... Although the climate is humid, there is perennial haze, and there is little sunshine, there are not a few people living here, and there are all kinds of people. It is considered a holy place where cultures blend and collide."

The middle-aged man glanced around, "But now, I can't even see a single person on the street."

"I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel like someone is watching us..."

"We are here as envoys from the realm of mortals. No matter how chaotic his realm is, it is still one of the nine realms of mankind. No matter how courageous he is, he will not dare to attack us...otherwise, what he will provoke will be It is not just a contradiction between two major realms, but a huge struggle within human beings.

I guess that this incident in the Red World Realm, even if it is related to the Wuji Realm, must be a problem with a certain faction... It is better to contact the Witchcraft Association first to understand the situation in time. "

"That's what I say...but it's better to be careful."

"Um."

The two walked to the door of the church, and after a group of guards stopped them, the middle-aged man took out two certificates from his arms and handed them over.

"We are the envoys of the world of mortals. This is our identity certificate... You must have received the telegram from the mortal base. You should know the purpose of our visit."

"Yes, we know your purpose of coming."

The leading guard just glanced at the ID, then waved his hand to make way for the two of them, "Please, our president has been waiting for a long time."

Seeing this scene, the two temples felt slightly relieved and walked straight through the crowd and into the church.

There was no one in the church to receive them or to guide them. The two could only walk through it with frowning eyes, walking along the corridor to the depths of the church, and stopped in front of a magnificent golden door.

Looking at this golden door, which was estimated to weigh several tons, the black-haired woman frowned:

"Wuji Realm...is it so rich?"

"There is a school called 'Alchemy' here, which can adapt the basic structure of matter through equivalent exchange... But how much does it cost to exchange for such a large golden door?"

Even though he had been to the Wuji Realm and knew something about the Sixth Hall, he was surprised by this golden gate at this moment. He put his hands on the surface of the gate and was about to exert force, but the latter seemed to be automatically controlled. It opened inward with a low humming sound...

A burst of brilliant and dazzling light shone on the faces of the two temples. They saw the scene behind the door clearly and were stunned for a moment.

It was a palace made of gold, gems, and various rare materials. The luxurious dome was inlaid with tens of millions of gems of various colors. The prayer platform was entirely made of white jade, and even the benches seemed to come from Manchuria. Growing out of the gold of the earth, the splendor and splendor were not enough to describe the scene in front of the two of them.

At this moment, in the center of the church, a figure wearing a gorgeous robe, with gemstone necklaces on his fingers and chest, was looking at them with a smile, and slowly raised his hands, like an emperor bathed in jewels.

"The two special envoys have come a long way, but they are not welcome at all!" Brand, with a Western face, said an old Eastern saying as soon as he spoke, with a hospitable smile on his face.

The two palaces had not yet recovered from the shocking scene in front of them. When they heard Brand's voice, they turned their eyes towards him. After a moment of hesitation, the fifth palace finally spoke:

"You are the acting president of the Witchcraft Association, Brand?"

"Oh~ yes, it's me!"

"You must have understood the purpose of our visit from the telegram." The Sixth Palace said in a deep voice, "However, I still want to ask one more question, since you have received the telegram, why don't you reply to Hongchen Base in time? ?”

"I'm really sorry about this... I've been busy with a lot of things in Wuji Realm recently, so I forgot to reply."

Brand held his forehead with one hand and answered with regret.

Forgot to reply?

Upon hearing these four words, the faces of the two palace officials became gloomy.

Between realms, unless the situation is urgent, telegram exchanges are rarely carried out. Once this happens, something big has happened... This is an extremely serious matter, and there is usually a dedicated person responsible for the connection. When it comes to Wuji, On this side of the realm, it's okay to just say "forget"?

They looked at each other and still didn't have an attack, but continued to ask:

"Since you are so 'busy', we can only ask you in person... Regarding this attack in the world of mortals, we have investigated a large number of suspected traces of witchcraft and Shinto activities. How does the Witchcraft Association explain this? ?”

"I am deeply saddened by what happened in the world of mortals."

As Brand spoke, he didn't mean the slightest bit of pain. He just pretended to sigh, then took out a transparent test tube-like container from his arms and played with it in his hand.

In this container, a stone the size of a pinky fingernail, exuding a shining red luster, was gently shaking with Brand's movements, making a clanking sound when it hit the inner wall of the container.

Seeing this little red stone, confusion flashed in the eyes of the Fifth Hall, while the Sixth Hall, who knew something about the Wuji Realm and the Alchemy School, felt that it looked familiar, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously, as if it was in his mind. Remembering something.

Brand played with the stone and looked at the two of them with a smile;

Behind him, three figures who had just escaped from the Red Dust Realm were standing there quietly with their heads down, like inconspicuous shadows.

"Is that... the Philosopher's Stone?" Finally, the Sixth Hall remembered where he had seen something similar.

"What stone?"

"In the Middle Ages in Europe before the Great Cataclysm, there was a group of people who tried to extract precious metals from base metals. They were called the 'Alchemy School'. In a sense, this was also the predecessor of modern chemistry." The Sixth Hall explained in a deep voice,

"Later, those who pursued alchemy expanded from Europe and gradually spread to every corner of the world, existing in various ancient civilizations...

With the development of the Alchemy School, some of them pursued greater goals, such as refining the so-called 'Philosopher's Stone', and studying 'artificial humans' through the knowledge of the Alchemy School; the existence of the 'Philosopher's Stone' was considered to be a 'miracle' that could make people immortal and their consciousness immortal...

But as far as I know, the method of refining the 'Philosopher's Stone' mastered by the Witchcraft Association today is to absorb, process, and distort a large number of human souls, so that it can become the fuel for the immortality of the soul. It is similar to the 'Eternal Lamp' extracted from human oil that was lit when the ancient emperors were buried.

However, to refine this 'Philosopher's Stone', millions of human souls are needed..."
