Chapter 1255: Shenguo Inquiry, Resurrection and Power Retrieval

"Do you wish to return to the Mortal Plane? To become human again?"

Fragments of memory suddenly flashed through Kelifu's mind. He struggled to see clearly what those memories were, but he could not make them out, as if someone had deliberately covered them with a thin veil.

Although the memories were unclear, they brought a subtle, indescribable change to his heart. The words of refusal he had originally intended to speak could not be uttered now.

"My Lord, how could I abandon you?"

Tears suddenly streamed from Kelifu's eyes. Holding the Book of Radiance that had accompanied him since his birth in the Shenguo, he knelt on one knee and prayed continuously toward the center of the Kingdom of Radiance.

Seeing this, the Divine Envoy Kafa remained silent, but another unknown gray-robed Divine Envoy, like a villain forcibly dragging away a traveler returning home, continued to ask:

"According to the Resurrection Covenant, Kelifu, I ask you once more: are you willing to be resurrected, return to the human world, and become human again?"

Kelifu did not answer, continuing only to pray. But during his prayer, the memory fragments that had flashed before appeared once more, and compared to the first time, they were more numerous and clearer—

"Netheril? Resurrection Covenant?" Kelifu seemed to recall something, yet also seemed to have recalled nothing at all.

But such changes constantly eroded his heart, causing the tears in his eyes to overflow continuously.

After the gray-robed Divine Envoy asked for the third time, the tears in Kelifu's eyes had run dry, but his eyes grew increasingly bright.

He stood up quickly, handed the Book of Radiance in his hand to the Divine Envoy Kafa, then turned to face the gray-robed Divine Envoy and said solemnly, "I am willing!"

Following Kelifu's response, a dim, deep, ghostly light erupted from the gray-robed Divine Envoy's hand, striking Kelifu instantly and turning him into nothingness, causing him to disappear completely from the hall.

And on the other side.

In the Main Plane, Netheril, Cliff Territory, inside that secret chamber of the Guanghui Zhi Ta, Kelifu's significantly younger body suddenly opened its eyes.

At the same time, the ghostly light in the secret chamber suddenly contracted and returned to the wooden box.

The newly resurrected Kelifu stumbled, then steadied himself by holding onto the bookshelf where the wooden box was placed.

Then, noticing his current environment and his own state, he subconsciously muttered, "I died? I was resurrected again?"

The memories of the Kingdom of Radiance left no trace in his heart, but as his memories continuously recovered, Kelifu gradually figured out the situation.

He had been hit by the Muchuan of those indigenous hunters in the Astral Plane; not only was his Astral Projection Avatar destroyed, but his physical body in the Main Plane had also been reduced to ashes!

"Suo En! Xia Duo!"

Kelifu remembered that Suo En had been attacked by the hunters' Muchuan just like him, and Xia Duo was the last person he saw before his consciousness returned to the Main Plane.

Although he was not as worried about Xia Duo's safety as he was about Suo En's, Kelifu knew that it was impossible for a Great Arcanist to die by his side without any impact.

He urgently needed to understand what had happened in the outside world, but before that, he had more important things to do—

Kelifu took a set of neatly folded clothes from the bookshelf and quickly put them on. Afterward, he opened the wooden box containing the Resurrection Covenant.

The wooden box was now empty; the Resurrection Covenant had taken effect and vanished.

Closing the wooden box, Kelifu began to recover his power. Dying and being resurrected had caused him to lose all his Spellcasting abilities; he was now a completely ordinary person.

However, Kelifu was not worried about this at all. His Spellcasting abilities were gone, but his Knowledge and experience had not disappeared. Everything an Arcanist possesses is based on Knowledge.

Sensing slightly, Kelifu extended a finger, and a point of light bloomed between his fingers. In an instant, he reconnected with the surface of the Magic Net, becoming a Mage Apprentice.

Afterward, using a method similar to the Tower of Time's Ascension Trial, Kelifu used Low-Circle Element Expression to cast st Circle Spells and nd Circle Spells, continuing until he reached the Fifth Layer of the Weave before stopping.

By this time, he had once again become a High Mage, and only then did he have the ability to regain control of the Guanghui Zhi Ta.

This secret chamber could, in a sense, be considered the Control Center of the Guanghui Zhi Ta, but Kelifu did not attempt to control the Guanghui Zhi Ta at this moment; instead, he activated another function of the secret chamber—

The auxiliary advancement function for suppressing the Magic Net!

Kelifu had gone directly from a Legendary Mage to a Great Arcanist without experiencing the advancement stage of a High Mage, but he was not at all unfamiliar with the creation of Primary Arcane Fire.

After all, the Arcane Fire created when advancing to a Great Arcanist completely contained all the functions of the Arcane Fire created during the advancement to a High Mage.

Thus, perhaps the fastest-born Arcanist in history appeared in the secret chamber, unruffled.

Of course, as far as this secret chamber was concerned, the damaged Magic Net that had experienced Kelifu's advancement was not so calm at this moment, even with the existence of the suppression Magic Array, it was still wantonly spewing large amounts of elemental and energy turbulence.

However, for Kelifu, who had already become an Arcanist, these were merely minor, painless troubles.

He did not even repair the Magic Net or sort out the energy turbulence, but instead continued to cast spells in such a chaotic environment, thereby continuously contacting the Deep Weave to retrieve all the power that was rightfully his.

Before long, feeling the familiar Arcane Fire and the Micro Magic Net that had a tendency to unfold spontaneously, Kelifu smoothed out the Magic Net environment in the secret chamber slightly.

Then, he lowered his head and prayed silently toward the direction of the sun at this very moment. Soon, the holy radiance of Holy Power also appeared on his body.

In addition to the power of Arcane Magic, Kelifu had also regained the power of Divine Magic.

"Let it be so!"

The newly created Arcane Fire certainly reached the standard of a Great Arcanist, but compared to the Arcane Fire he had grown for a long time before, the limit of Arcane Energy was much lower.

The growth of Arcane Fire, besides contacting the Deep Weave to allow it to spontaneously derive deep structures, could only be achieved by increasing the quantity of Magic Net Strings over time.

As for Holy Power, it depended entirely on the granter of Holy Power, the Lord of Radiance. All Kelifu could do was reconnect with the Lord of Radiance; everything else was decided by the Lord of Radiance.

Fortunately, this resurrection did not reduce his Divine Grace, and even the limit of his Holy Power had not decreased in the slightest.

Regarding this, Kelifu felt only endless gratitude toward the Lord of Radiance. Although he did not remember the various events after he died and went to the Kingdom of Radiance, he could guess a little.

Without the permission of the Lord of Radiance, he should not have been able to be resurrected, let alone regain the favor of the Lord of Radiance.

If he were not grateful, would he instead harbor resentment?
