A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 725: Chapter 725: Eternal Sky City

Nine months later.

After flying over the vast Sea of End for more than half a year, Green finally reached the sea area near the Eternal Sky City, where the sea began to frequently show traces of giant aircraft, Mechanical Wizards, and Slave Monsters.

When Demon-Hunting Sorcerers of the Wizard World mention the Eternal Sky City, the first thing that comes to mind is the center of the Wizard’s Will!

If the Second Ring Holy Tower, with Wizard Currency as the True Spirit Dedication, is the economic center of the entire Wizarding Alliance, and the One Ring Sacred Tower is indisputably the civilization center of the Wizard World, then the Eternal Sky City, presided over by one of the two oldest Mechanical True Spirit Sorcerers in the Wizard World, is the physical embodiment of the Wizard’s Will.

Here, the transformation of ancient humans from primitive life to civilized wizard society is passed down, a testament to the indomitable history of struggling against the Sea Tribe for broader living space and higher status.

Here, the glory of Ancient Wizards who, to win in the war against the Alien Nightmare civilization, did not hesitate to sacrifice themselves and destroyed a medium-sized world, completely reversing the course of wizard civilization, is preserved.

Here, the dark history of a flourishing Ancient Wizarding World enslaving countless worlds big and small, brutally driving millions of slaves to fulfill the Wizard’s Will and forging one after another of Ancient Sky Cities for waging endless void conquests, which were feared by Different Worlds as world slavemasters, is chronicled.

Here, the brave and tragic history of the Ancient Wizards’ civilization during its zenith fighting against the terrifying Abyss civilization to preserve the last legacy of wizard civilization, with countless Ancient Wizards advancing without hesitation, defending the last hope on the Wizard Continent, as one Ancient Sky City after another fell, finally leveraging the mighty foundation collected by the Wizard World to escape and preserve the last Light of Hope, is recorded.

Now...

After the Ancient War, all the remaining Sky Cities, under the sole maintenance of the Mechanical True Spirit Sorcerer, have merged with the Wizard World to form a single Eternal Sky City.

The word "eternal" signifies the beautiful wish that the Wizard World will never be destroyed, establishing it as a civilization legacy of the Wizard World on par with the Lever of Destiny and the Book of Destiny!

Here lies the mechanical clock.

The mechanical clock uses the heart of the ancestor of humans as the timing base of human time, distinct from the hourglass system used by wizards, adopting the hour-based unit, dividing one natural day into twenty-four hours, aligning more with the biological clock of ordinary humans.

The so-called hourglass timing is measured by how long an Eighth-Level True Spirit Wizard can remain in the Wizard World after advancing to the legendary Ninth Level True Spirit Sorcerer, leading to the system where one hourglass equals two hours.

Here lies the Eternal Heart.

For Mechanical Wizards, the one common feature among all mechanical entities is having a Mechanical Heart as an energy source transference. The energy source transference of the Eternal Heart of the Eternal Sky City is the Wizard World’s will rules!

The Sky of Water Curtain rule, a unique rule of the Wizard World.

On one side, the Sea Tribe Altar continuously transports endless seawater to the sky, while on the other side, it falls from the whirlpool of water curtain in the Sea of End, achieving balance in rules, and the will rules of the Wizard World descended by the whirlpool of water curtain, is one of the energy sources of the Eternal Sky City.

In addition, there are the Wizard World’s storm rules, earth vein rules, spacetime rules, four seasons rules, day-night rules, all of which the Eternal Heart can draw energy from, making the Eternal Sky City an integral part of the Wizard World’s rules.

Here are over twenty Space Fortress Factories, countless Space Airship and mechanical puppet factories!

Countless Mechanical Arcane Sorcerers work here, with the birth of each Space Fortress being the result of the collective efforts of hundreds of thousands of Mechanical Wizards.

The elite Elemental Wizards migrating from the Wizard Continent are also in considerable numbers, enjoying the most stable, peaceful, and abundant wizard life here.

One Space Fortress after another sets out from here to various Holy Towers of the Wizard World, eventually becoming the ominous blood-red moon hanging in the skies of Different Worlds, spreading the Wizard’s Will.

Eternal Sky City, this is a miracle of the Wizard World created by generations of wizards through wisdom and effort, a Wizard Continent floating in the sky above the Sea of End!

...

"Hiss..."

On the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab, Green gazed into the distance, only to see an endless shadow over the Sea of End, a metal continent floating in the sky obstructing the light source in the sky, boundless and never-ending, extending into infinity.

It was not as busy as imagined, because the Eternal Sky City was indeed vast, so vast that it covered almost half the area of the Wizard Continent, and the scattered uncountable Mechanical Wizards over its expansive territory did not appear particularly busy.

"So grandiose and vast."

Even after reading countless descriptions of the Eternal Sky City in literature, Green could not help but exclaim at its majestic grandeur upon witnessing it firsthand.

Compared to the Eternal Sky City, a Space Fortress appeared like an ant standing beneath the Tree of Life.

"Ga! They really combined all the Sky Cities into one?"

Xiao Ba murmured in amazement as he stood on the Enigmatic Thousand-Headed Bird: "I remember in ancient times, the Wizard World had more than thirty Sky Cities. Even if some fell during the ancient wars, there should still be no less than twenty, these old things really know how to play."

The mechanical clock of the Eternal Sky City stood directly ahead of Green and Xiao Ba, towering over a thousand meters, with twenty-four divisions, constructed with six gigantic hands, representing epoch, year, day, hour, minute, and second. The rotation of the hour hand marked a day in the Wizard World.

After marveling for a long time, Green and Xiao Ba became part of the countless curious wizards, flying towards the Sky City.

Though appearing close at hand, the majestic and vast Sky City took Green nearly a whole day of flying to finally reach beneath the mechanical clock of the Sky City.

Surrounding the mechanical clock were countless Second-Level Wizards and Third-Level Great Sorcerers, standing quietly, gazing upwards, or sitting in meditative thought, or simply floating in mid-air curled up like babies, feeling the "tick-tock, tick-tock" of the mechanical gears of the mechanical clock.

According to literature, the mechanical clock is driven by the heart of the ancestor of humans, and wizards find it easier to sense Half-Step Chronos and True Time under the mechanical clock, benefiting their life evolution; whether true or false, large crowds of Second-Level Wizards and Third-Level Wizards come in admiration.

At this moment, Green also became one of them.

With a trace of Ancestral Blood flowing within him, Green sat cross-legged in the air before the mechanical clock, feeling an immense tranquility all around, gradually closing his eyes.
