Chapter 3051: The Gossip of the Elf Main God and Mawang Dingxu

"Anything else?" Xia Duo saw that Meitepusi still had more to say and knew the other party had not finished, so he continued to press for details.

"There is also the matter of the Elf Mages from the Arvandor Shenguo in the south; they occasionally bring Elves from the Mortal Plane to the Eternal Night Battlefield for training, but they rarely linger in the Holy City. Once they arrive, they go straight to the battlefield, so if you want to encounter them, it requires a great deal of coincidence."

Seeing Meitepusi mention Elves, Xia Duo could not help but interrupt, while simultaneously posing his own question: "How so? Do Elf Mages from the Arvandor Shenguo often come to the Eternal Night Battlefield to participate in the war?"

"That is indeed the case. From the past to the present as far as I know, the Arvandor Shenguo has regularly sent a sizable contingent to the Eternal Night Battlefield to participate in the war, and small squads also come from time to time for training."

"Why is that? Does the Elf Main God have a request of the Lord of Radiance? Or is there some other reason?" Xia Duo asked again.

Although everything in the Outer Planes was very far from him, it was possible that at some point it would involve the Material Plane, just like the Illuminati he was currently investigating, which might have a connection to the Main Plane.

Of course, it was not certain; he only learned from Kelifu and Taide that a group called the "Illuminati" did indeed exist in the Kingdom of Radiance. Whether it was the same Illuminati manipulating the Demon Descendant Chongxin Ailan in the Main Plane, even Xia Duo himself was not entirely sure!

But regardless, as long as he could not rule out this possibility, he would inevitably have to visit the Kingdom of Radiance, so he was very interested in any information regarding Elves and the Material Plane here in the Kingdom of Radiance.

Regarding this, the members of the Seven Dun Mage Association still did not show the slightest impatience; the Netherese Mages of the Main Plane were not so easy to talk to. However, this time they changed to a different person, and a Mage named Gu Ke'er answered Xia Shao:

"Why the Aifanshao Shenguo participates in the Eternal Night War is actually very difficult for us ordinary residents living in the Holy City to discern the truth of, but I have heard a legend that it is related to the Elf Main God's divinity."

But there are exceptions, such as the Elf Main God.

If given more time, perhaps he could summarize a set of effective spellcasting methods benchmarked against the Main Plane, but if he could obtain ready-made ones through communication with the Seven Dun Mage Association, that would also be excellent.

Hearing such gossip, Xia Shao felt both shocked and a sense of sudden enlightenment. Previously, he had met an avatar of the Elf Main God in Keman Suo, but it was a female who called herself "Kelanni"!

If he did not have Arcane Fire, his spellcasting ability would be greatly discounted. If an ordinary Mage from the Main Plane were to come here, it would likely be more than just a discount; they would immediately lose their ability to cast spells.

A True God who does not rely entirely on order to achieve divinity—perhaps that is what led to the instability of the divinity. What he could not figure out was—what is the connection between stabilizing divinity and participating in the Eternal Night War?

When mentioning the concept of "divinity," Gu Ke'er used a very special language that could accurately and unmistakably convey the meaning corresponding to that concept to Xia Shao.

But regardless, listening to it as gossip was quite interesting. At the very least, Xia Shao now knew that the manifested image of the Elf Main God had been constantly changing, which to a certain extent also reflected some of the other party's long-term psychological shifts.

Or rather, the secret changes of divinity.

Regarding Xia Shao's request for communication, the Seven Dun Mage Association did not refuse, nor did they have any reason to refuse, and regarding the method of spellcasting in the Outer Planes, it was still Gu Ke'er who explained it to Xia Shao:

He suspected that the Elf Main God might have been influenced by the faith of the Elves, but he had no evidence, and it was even less possible to ask a True God, so for the time being, it was just a conjecture.

"After several changes, it has never stabilized. In the last millennium, it has manifested as a goddess, which is actually a sign of unstable divinity."

"The Heavenly Realm Mawang is volatile. Arcanists can obtain a relatively stable spellcasting channel with the help of Arcane Fire. Although it still requires replenishment through various elements, it is much more convenient than for others."

Xia Shao had yet to grasp the true mysteries of the Magic Net in the Outer Planes, which had to do with the very short time he spent in the Outer Planes; every time he came, he came and went in a hurry, with almost no time to stay.

Xia Shao was very interested in the mature spellcasting methods of the Outer Planes. Although he could cast spells in the Outer Planes now, he mainly relied on Arcane Fire.

"A god is a transcendent existence and naturally transcends the gender of mortals, but gods usually have manifested images shown to the outside world. In the records of the Kingdom of Radiance, the Elf Main God first manifested as a male god!"

This question could not be answered by the members of the Seven Dun Mage Association either; even the reason for the Aifanshao Shenguo's participation in the Eternal Night War was just a rumor, and no one could discern the truth related to gods.

Could fighting the Abyss really keep one away from chaos? Thinking about it, it would not be that simple.

Xia Shao had originally thought that the members of the Seven Dun Mage Association naturally mastered spellcasting abilities after reincarnation. Now it seemed that wanting to continue being a Mage after reincarnation was probably not easy at all!

"Therefore, if Mage Xia Shao wants to learn the spellcasting method of Heavenly Realm Spellcasters, the first thing to learn is this. For your Excellency, who has already been in contact with a stable Magic Net, there is no high threshold."

It seems that the current goddess image of the Elf Main God is likely stable!

"Native inhabitants of the Heavenly Realm (including reincarnators who were Mages in their previous lives) must undergo long-term, arduous training to achieve this!"

In Gu Ke'er's introduction, divinity is similar to personality; it is used to describe the state of a god's existence and can also highlight certain characteristics of a god. Generally speaking, divinity is extremely stable.

In the reception hall, Xia Shao and the Mages of the Seven Dun Mage Association engaged in intense communication on various topics, some common and some secret, regarding the Mortal Plane and the Heavenly Realm.

So that's how it is!

"More Heavenly Realm spellcasters need to consciously create a Magic Net state that suits them. This process is called 'Mawang Dingxu'!"

"For non-Arcanists who want to cast spells, the first thing to do is to perform Mawang Dingxu. Some people complete this process unintentionally; this is considered a talent and a stroke of luck, but it is indeed very rare."

Afterwards, the topic inevitably turned to the field of Magic. Speaking of which, the focus of the communication between Xia Shao and the Seven Dun Mage Association should have been on this; so much off-topic talk earlier, and now it finally reached Magic.

In broad daylight, discussing the privacy of a True God—it was only because everyone was in the Radiant Holy City at this time; otherwise, even in the boundless wilderness, they would likely be targeted by the Elf Main God.

From the Ascension Ritual that the Elves previously gave to the First Tower, Xia Shao had speculated that the Elf Main God might not be a purely Order God; it was only after the Princess modified the Ascension Ritual that it achieved an Order God.
