Chapter 267 Passageway

Hearing Herdosiri's words, Chen Heng inwardly frowned.

After going to many places and experiencing many things, he did not react much to things like this.

However, from Herdosiri's explanations, he roughly understood what Warlocks were.

The Warlocks were people who had awakened their ancestors' power.

They had awakened their high-level bloodlines within their bodies, gaining immense power.

It did not seem all that amazing.

From how Chen Heng saw it, it was just like a rich second generation heir.

There were similar existences in the Sorcerer World, but there were not many of them and they did not have great influence.

However, in this world, Warlocks seemed to have very prestigious standings because this world had gods.

Because of how strong gods were, those with their bloodlines would naturally be incredibly strong.

This was why Warlocks were incredibly prestigious characters in this world.

This explained Herdosiri's reaction.

After all, the Hatim family happened to have the bloodline of a god.

If Chen Heng really became a Warlock, he naturally obtained part of the god's power.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng came to an understanding.

"Don't look at me like that."

Feeling Herdosiri's gaze, Chen Heng shook his head, "I just obtained some power; who knows if it was really my bloodline awakening.

"Moreover, even if I really did awaken my bloodline, whether or not it's a divine bloodline is another matter," Chen Heng said calmly.

"No, there's no mistaking it."

In response to Chen Heng's calmness, Herdosiri became even more excited.

He looked at Chen Heng as he said emotively, "For you to have such great power right after awakening, it must be a legendary bloodline. This means that it is very likely that it is a divine bloodline."

Meeting Herdosiri's gaze, Chen Heng's mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.

"Moreover, the flames that you just used correspond to the Fire God's divine power."

Hearing this, Chen Heng opened his mouth, instinctively wanting to refute Herdosiri, but in the end, he sighed and did not say anything else.

By now, he had realized that it was pointless no matter what he said.

He wanted to say that the flames from before were not from his bloodline and that he could demonstrate it again.

However, even if he said this, Herdosiri most likely would not believe him.

After all, this world was one that cared greatly about bloodlines.

Having a good background was very important to one's development.

In this world, what kind of identity could compare to someone who had awakened a divine bloodline?

Even if it was a weak divine bloodline, it would still be incredibly prestigious, even more than some kings.

Of course, according to this world's traditions, kings usually had divine bloodlines as well.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng did not bother explaining anymore.

"What about the Sorcerers then?" Chen Heng sighed as he asked, "Before you were talking about a Second Ring Sorcerer?"

In this world, apart from life power, there was also the Sorcerer system.

The Hatim family had information on Sorcerers, but Chen Heng's previous identity had not paid much attention to them, as it had nothing to do with him.

As such, Chen Heng needed Herdosiri to explain those things to him.

In response to Chen Heng's question, Herdosiri did not hide anything and quickly explained.

This world's Sorcerer system seemed to have been created by the Sorcerer God and Magic Goddess.

The Sorcerer God created the Sorcerer system and brought Sorcerers to this world, while the Magic Goddess inherited the Sorcerer God's godhood and created a new system on his foundation: the Magic Net.

The so-called Magic Net was a network of magic that covered the entire physical world. Sorcerers could interact with the Magic Net through Meditation and obtain magic skills. They could also store their magic skills in the Magic Net and use the Magic Net to release them.

"Wait"

Hearing Herdosiri's words, Chen Heng frowned and thought of something ,"Since Sorcerers can rely on themselves to cast magic skills, why do they need to rely on the Magic Net?

"From what you said, are there limitations to using the Magic Net?" he frowned as he asked.

Based on what Herdosiri had said, the magic skills that Sorcerers cast were limited by their level.

Moreover, through the Magic Net, the amount of magic skills that Sorcerers could use in a day was greatly limited.

Since there was such a great limitation, why did Sorcerers use the Magic Net to cast magic skills?

Chen Heng felt quite confused and looked at Herdosiri.

It was just that Herdosiri was unable to answer this either.

"About that, I'm not sure" Herdosiri bitterly smiled as he shook his head, "That has been the case since ancient times."

Evidently, his knowledge was limited as well, and this made sense.

Even though he might have had a prestigious background, he was not a Sorcerer, and it was already good that he knew some things about Sorcerers.

In actuality, for him to know the difference between Warlocks and Sorcerers, and to know about the Sorcerer God and Magic Goddess, he was already quite knowledgeable.

Chen Heng nodded and did not make things difficult for him, and he motioned for him to continue.

As such, Herdosiri began to talk about the levels of Sorcerers.

The levels of Sorcerers were like Life Knights: They started off as Apprentices, then became official First Ring Sorcerers.

Only a First Ring Sorcerer could unleash a First Ring magic skill.

After First Ring Sorcerers were Second Ring Sorcerers and Third Ring Sorcerers.

There were Nine Rings in total.

However, it was evident from what Herdosiri said that he had never seen a high-level Sorcerer before.

"In actuality, the strongest Sorcerer I've seen was on the battlefield, and he was just a Second Ring Sorcerer."

Herdosiri bitterly smiled as he said, "Back then, he used a powerful magic skill like you did just then, destroying a 200-man elite army."

"Second Ring"

Hearing Herdosiri's words, Chen Heng lowered his head and thought to himself.

The reason why Herdosiri had thought that Chen Heng was a Second Ring Sorcerer was because he had seen one before, and he was on equal footing with Chen Heng.

"So a Second Ring Sorcerer is equivalent to a true Sorcerer" Chen Heng thought to himself.

Before, the flames he had used were not his full power but could rival a true Sorcerer unleashing a magic skill.

It seemed that the strength of this world's Second Ring Sorcerers' magic skills were about the same as the Sorcerer World's true Sorcerers.

Chen Heng wondered if this was the case for other aspects as well.

At that moment, a cold and eerie feeling came from afar.

Chen Heng instinctively looked in a certain direction.

Over there, a hazy fog was rising.

"This is"

Sensing this cold and eerie feeling, Chen Heng instinctively fronwed.

In the next moment, a gust of fog rushed up and covered them, causing them to disappear.

Within the fog, all senses were covered up.

Even Chen Heng's mental energy was blocked by an unknown energy.

Sensing this, Chen Heng instinctively looked to the side.

There, Herdosiri and Lamu were gone.

"Not again"

Perhaps this was how he had been separated from Herdosiri and the others before.

It seemed that things would be quite troublesome.

Chen Heng frowned and hesitated for a moment before walking forwards.

Fog rose up in the surroundings, making this area quite dim. There seemed to be figures darting about in the darkness, creating an oppressive feeling.

If he was a normal person, he may have gone crazy with anxiety.

In the surroundings, there was a strange energy that could affect people's minds, making one go more and more insane.

Sensing this energy, Chen Heng had a feeling that the source of all of this would be appearing soon.

He gripped his fists together and slowly walked forwards.

Chen Heng did not know how long he had walked for, and he heard footsteps all around him, as if there really were people walking about.

It was as if they were skulking around Chen Heng, preparing to attack him and rip him apart.

At the same time, Chen Heng could sense that that energy from before became more and more intense.

Even with Chen Heng's mental energy, he felt some discomfort and pressure.

It was evident that if it wasn't for Chen Heng's mental energy being strong enough, he would not be able to reach here.

As he headed onwards, he found that the surroundings began to change.

The dark fog began to dissipate, revealing a passageway.

The passageway was made from black stone slabs, and seeing this scene, Chen Heng stopped and looked around.

There were all kinds of murals drawn on the surrounding stone slabs.

Most of them were of people, and a minority of them had strange-looking monsters on them.

Some had the head of humans but the body of cows and only three feet; others had big bodies that looked like twisted warriors.

Looking at those murals, Chen Heng's expression became grim.

A massive amount of mental energy spread out.

He sensed that these murals were not murals but were real monsters.

Those monsters gave off silent roars, their bodies giving off massive auras and almost causing the space to twist; they were far stronger than the current Chen Heng.

Without realizing it, his surroundings had turned into a formless world, without anything around him, only powerful mental wills.

Those mental wills became monsters, staring at him.

They stared at Chen Heng, looking like they wanted to devour his soul and take his body.

In the next moment, Chen Heng's body moved.

Chen Heng suddenly raised his head, becoming fully awake.

"No way!"

Thinking of that feeling from before, his face was ashen.

That situation had been incredibly dangerous.

He had been just a bit away from his mind being affected and devoured by those strange existences.

If that really happened, even if he could come back to his senses, his mind would no longer be clear, and he might even become a different person.

If that was the case, even if he did not die, it would be the same as his life being over.

"Just what is this place" Chen Heng looked at this passageway as he thought to himself, "Which god is it connected to?"

Chen Heng thought back to that altar and those runes.

If they were really for worshipping a god, then even a tiny fraction of a god's remnant power was a great threat to Chen Heng.

Chen Heng wished he could immediately turn back and leave this place.

However, evidently, he had no other choice now.

He greatly wanted to leave, but he could not even find the way to leave.

If he did not resolve the thing in front of him, he would not be able to leave.

Even if he just stood here, what was awaiting him would just be death.

Right now, Chen Heng could sense that as time passed, the stone slabs were going through changes.

The energy they contained seemed to be awakening, and evil intent began to focus towards his body.

Evidently, Chen Heng's lifeforce made those undead living in the stone slabs start to wake up.

If he continued to stay here, he would be in danger.

Right now, his only choice was to advance.
