Chapter 451 : Choosing the Fallen Star
Chapter 451 : Choosing the Fallen Star
Looking at the contents of the "Main Quest" on the Quest Panel, Janna’s eyes couldn’t help but flash with surprise."Another main quest already? The last side quest was just issued not long ago—"
Just a few months earlier, before Janna had even completed the 【Main Quest: Save the Withering Life】, she had already triggered a new side quest.
By the time she completed the previous main quest, her side quest still had barely any progress.
So Janna had thought that before a side quest was completed, the System would not assign her another main quest. With this in mind, she opened the entry on the Quest Panel marked "Side Quest".
【Side Quest: Revive the Servant of Life—the Oak Giant, Rosen.
Quest Rewards: 500 Talent EXP, 1500 Skill EXP, two random rewards.
Quest Time Limit: None.】
Looking at the side quest description, Janna still had no idea how to revive the 【Oak Giant—Rosen】. She quietly closed the side quest panel and turned her gaze back to the newly issued main quest.
"To cultivate the 【Fallen Star】... Although this quest came rather suddenly, it was within expectation."
The 【Fallen Star】 was equivalent to a future 【Law Plane】 for a full-fledged wizard. So, if Janna wanted to advance to become a wizard, cultivating a 【Fallen Star】 was something she could never avoid.
And since the Daily Quest System was her "guide" on the path of a wizard, it wasn’t strange that cultivating the 【Fallen Star】 would trigger a high-level quest—
"So, in order to advance into a wizard, you must replace the original 【Plane Will】 of the 【Fallen Star】 during the process of cultivation, allowing a complete 【Law Seed】 to be reborn within the 【Law Consciousness Group】—"
"Only then will the 【Fallen Star】 be promoted again into a 【Plane Domain】 with 【Source Power】. At the same time, you will need to use the newly born 【Source Power】 within the plane to repair the 【Source Power】 of the 【Material Plane】—"
"And in this process, gain the recognition of the 【Material Plane】, thereby elevating the 【Law Seed】 into a true 【Primary Law】, giving your 【Plane Domain】 the possibility of becoming an 【Independent World】—"
"Of course, by that time, you would already be a full-fledged wizard. In fact, your existence would become inseparably bound to the 【Plane Domain】. From a certain perspective, a wizard who possesses a 【Plane Domain】 already gains the trait of immortality, what the ancients once called a 【God】."
The knowledge points explained in this lesson by Hephis-Stellar were vast. Even though Janna had done her preview, she still felt as though her mind had been struck by a wave of knowledge.
A wizard was immortal; a wizard was god.
Before coming to the White Tower, Janna would never have imagined that in order for a wizard apprentice to advance, one actually had to cultivate an independent 【Plane Domain】.
Even if those 【Plane Domains】 were already 【Fallen Stars】 where the 【Plane Will】 had disappeared, it still felt far beyond her comprehension.
"Doesn’t this mean that those Outer Gods who invaded the 【Material Plane】 were essentially intelligent beings who had mastered another immensely powerful 【Plane】? And the reason they plundered the 【Source Power】 of other 【Plane Domains】 was actually to elevate their own 【Plane】—thus achieving true immortality—"
As Janna listened attentively to Hephis-Stellar’s lecture, her mind also spun rapidly.
The more she understood this new knowledge, the more past "blind spots" she had overlooked suddenly connected together, giving her new insight.
Originally scheduled for nearly two hours, the lesson under Hephis-Stellar’s captivating explanation made Janna completely lose track of time.
It wasn’t until Hephis-Stellar closed the textbook that Janna, who had been in a state of deep concentration, realized that her very first class at the White Tower had already ended so quickly.
"Alright, that’s it for today’s lesson—"
Hearing Hephis-Stellar’s words, Janna, still reluctant for the class to end, slowly closed the textbook on her desk, waiting for him to announce dismissal.
"Next, I will open the 【Domain Gate】 of the White Tower. Those apprentices who have already grasped a 【Law Fragment】 may now enter the 【Domain Gate】 to select their 【Fallen Star】."
Now?
Hearing Hephis-Stellar’s words, Janna, who thought class was over, couldn’t help but widen her eyes slightly.
"We’re choosing our 【Fallen Star】 immediately after just the first class?"
From the moment she entered the White Tower yesterday, Janna had felt the fast-paced rhythm of life within its walls. Whether it was the hurried wizard apprentices, or the 【Book World】 where time itself flowed slower than the outside, everything made her feel that time here was abnormally precious.
"Swish—"
With the sound of pages turning once again, the 《Law and Plane Studies》 textbook, which had just been closed on the lectern, flipped open by itself.
"Buzz—"
Light flared brightly, space twisted. As the pages turned faster and faster, the 《Law and Plane Studies》 textbook floated up from the lectern and burst forth with dazzling seven-colored radiance, enveloping the entire classroom.
"So this is the 【Domain Gate】?"
When the light faded, the classroom had once again transformed into the image of a vast universe within the 【Star Ring Barrier】.
But this time, within the cosmos appeared a vortex-shaped black hole, twisting the space around it, constantly devouring surrounding starlight—hollow and terrifying.
"Who wants to go in first?"
Hearing Hephis-Stellar’s words, for a moment, everyone in the classroom stared at the nearby "black hole". Yet none of them responded right away.
"Since no one volunteers, then I’ll call names—"
"Professor, I’d like to try."
Just as Hephis-Stellar was about to begin roll call, Marquell-Storm, seated in the front row, suddenly raised his hand.
"Very well, you may try first."
Hearing this, Marquell-Storm immediately stood up and walked toward the "black hole" without hesitation.
"Remember, each time you stay inside the 【Domain Gate】 must not exceed three minutes. Otherwise, you risk losing your soul."
"Understood."
Hearing Hephis-Stellar’s reminder, Marquell-Storm nodded firmly, took a deep breath, and then stepped resolutely into the 【Domain Gate】.
