Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1051 The Deep

Emery had spent three days on the floating island. Out of all the three ingredients he needed to collect, only the tier 5 ones were left; another 200 grams, about 20 portions.

During these three days, the Chizpur brothers collected almost twice the tier 3 plants amount he asked them to gather. Emery was pleasantly surprised at first, but he soon became worried that they might get reprimanded for taking too much.

Because of this, he quickly told them to stop and allowed them to enter the deep level of the planet with him instead.

[Spirit Force: 1540]

Looking at his current spirit force, Emery was fairly sure that he needed just a little bit more to fix his [Undefined] pillar. Hence, faced with such an opportunity, he was committed not to leave this place until he had devoured enough.

With new determination, the group once again entered the deep level.

"Don't make a sound. If you do, all of you can go back inside my spatial space," Emery said in a low voice while motioning for the little creatures to stay quiet. Or perhaps, it would be even better if they could stay underground.

There were two other legendary beasts could be found in the deep level area, and the group spotted both of them as they walked through the illuminated caves.

One of them was a tiger-like beast with fiery fur, and the other was a flying bat with a dozen eyes.

[Fithera]

[Legendary Beast - Level 50]

[Battle Power - 320]

[Hundred Sights]

[Legendary Beast - Level 45]

[Battle Power - 290]

Just by looking at their levels and battle power, Emery could tell that these legendary beasts would be a hassle to deal with. Moreover, they were fire and lighting-based creatures, which Emery couldn't devour.

It wasn't worth the risk, energy, and time.

Fortunately, the burrowing skill of the five Chizpur brothers allowed Emery to see more in the caves. Thanks to this, he was able to spot the Golden Moss and the Tree Giants without spending too much time.

"Now!!"

With the element of surprise and precise coordination, Emery was able to quickly find the glowing light hidden within the Tree Giants. At the same time, the Chizpur brothers provided him extra defense with their protection spell, allowing him to focus more on his offense.

One… two… four… six…

After swiftly defeating six more of those gigantic creatures, Emery was finally able to gather all the Golden Moss he needed. However…

[Spirit Force: 1545]

He was still five points of spirit force away from his target.

After deliberating for just a few moments, Emery decided to continue his venture. He had already gone this far, and going back when he was just a step away from his goal…

He was really unwilling to do such a thing.

…

The group had continued walking deeper while defeating more Tree Giants for a while, and in front of them now were multiple cracks glowing with different colors on the ground.

Emery looked at them. Interestingly, although it was rather faint, he could feel powerful spirit energy emanating from them.

Behind him, Klea also silently looked at the cracks. She couldn't quite pinpoint why, but those cracks gave her a strange feeling.

With his vigilance raised and the others right behind him, Emery carefully walked forward to check where those cracks led.

Not long after following the cracks, Emery noticed a layer of mist similar to the gas he found outside the island in front of them. Not only that, but it seemed that even the area around them was covered in a much thinner layer of it.

Deeper in the mist, a large hole that seemed to be the center of the strange cracks was emitting a faint glow. From where he was standing, he could feel an immensely powerful spirit energy from the hole.

The energy was the same as he previously felt from the cracks, but this time, it was much denser.

Considering the three levels of layers he had been traveling through, Emery assumed that they had to be around 10 miles deep. It was no wonder that they were so close to the source of the gas mist.

Emery tried to peer into the hole, but it was so much more densely covered in the mist to the point he actually couldn't see anything. As he focused to see what was there, distant whispers began to caress his ears.

Soft, soft voices…

He couldn't understand what they were saying even with his spirit reading and the system translator attached to his palm, but he could feel…

They were calling him, beckoning him…

"Emery!" Klea abruptly pulled him backward, jolting him out of his reverie. "What happened to you!?"

The voices vanished. Not a trace of them remained in his ears as if everything he just heard was an illusion.

However, he could still feel something calling him, tempting him to come closer.

Emery was about to reassure the worried girl when all of a sudden, a figure he recognized swiftly dashed toward where the two of them were.

With a serious expression on her face, Magus Shena landed between Emery and the hole veiled in gray mist. "Step back! Don't get any closer!"

Emery was a bit startled when he saw the magus's reaction and sudden appearance, but he still obediently moved back a few steps with Klea.

The dragon bloodline's magus expression relaxed a little when she saw this, but it was only after they went further away from the hole that she began explaining to them.

Deep within the Hyperion still lied the remains of the celestial being that formed the planet. Even if Emery had access to enter the core level of the planet, only those at the magus level or higher could withstand the powerfull aura.

"Do you still have a lot to collect?" the magus suddenly asked.

"Just a few more."

Apparently, the fact Emery almost enter the core area, worried the magus. Because of this, she ended up staying close to watch over him, helping him kill more of the Tree Giants in the process.

[Spirit Force: 1550]

With Magus Shena's help, Emery managed to swiftly devour 8 more Tree Giants and thus finally maximize his spirit force to reach another bottleneck. At the same time, he also managed to get 10 extra portions, so it was about time for him to leave the island.

He initially thought about immediately delivering the herbs to the tempering stations, but

Considering the strange feeling within his dark core, he decided to take care of his cracking pillar first.
