Chapter 3052: The Illuminati of the Heavenly Realm
————It will be later~~

"Anything else?" Xia Duo saw that Meitepusi still had more to say and knew the other party hadn't finished, so he continued to press for details.
"Another thing is that Elf Mages from the Arvandor Shenguo in the south 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 couldn't help but interrupt, while simultaneously voicing his own doubts: "How so? Do Elf Mages from the Arvandor Shenguo frequently 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 periodically sent a significant number of troops to participate in the Eternal Night Battlefield, and small training squads also come from time to time."
"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 might involve the Material Plane at any moment, just like the Illuminati he had come to investigate this time, which might have a connection to the Main Plane.
Of course, it was uncertain; he only knew from Kelifu and Taide that a group called the "Illuminati" did indeed exist in the Kingdom of Radiance, but whether it was the same Illuminati manipulating the Demon Descendants in Chongxin Ailan on the Main Plane, even Xia Duo himself wasn't entirely sure!
But regardless, as long as this possibility could not be ruled out, he would inevitably have to take a trip to the Kingdom of Radiance, so I am very interested in any information regarding Elves and the Material Plane from the Kingdom of Radiance.
That question could not be answered by the members of the Seven Dun Mage Association, and even the reason for the Arvandor Shenguo's participation in the Eternal Night War was merely a rumor; no one could fathom the truth related to the gods.
When mentioning the concept of "Divine Rank," Gu Ke'er used a very plain language that could accurately convey the meaning corresponding to that concept to Xia Shao.
……
"A god is a transcendent existence, naturally surpassing the gender of mortals, but gods usually have their manifested forms shown to the outside world. In the records of the Kingdom of Radiance, the Elf Main God originally manifested as a male god!"
Could fighting the Abyss really keep one away from chaos? Thinking about it, it wouldn't be that simple.
Xia Shao had yet to figure out the true mysteries of the Magic Net in the Licheng Weimian, which had to do with the very short time he spent in the Licheng Weimian; every time he came, he arrived and left in a hurry, almost never staying.
I imagine the Elf Main God's goddess manifestation is probably stable now!
But there are exceptions, for instance, the Elf Main God.
A True God who relies entirely on order for achievement—perhaps that is what led to an unstable Divine Rank, but what I cannot figure out is—what is the connection between stabilizing a Divine Rank and participating in the Eternal Night War?
Afterwards, the topic inevitably turned to the field of Magic. Speaking of which, the focus of the exchange between Xia Shao and the Seven Dun Mage Association should have been on this; so many topics had been discussed before, and now they finally reached Magic.
In broad daylight, discussing the privacy of a True God—it was only because everyone was currently in the Radiant Holy City; otherwise, even in the Boundless Wilderness, they would likely be targeted by the Elf Main God.
"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 come into contact with a stable Magic Net, this does not have a very high threshold."
If he didn't have Arcane Fire, his spellcasting ability would be greatly discounted. If another Mage from the Main Plane were to come here, it would likely not be as simple as a discount in spellcasting ability, but an immediate loss of the ability to cast spells.
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 exchanges with the Seven Dun Mage Association, that would be excellent.
"More Heavenly Realm Spellcasters need to consciously create a Magic Net state suitable for themselves; this process is 'Mawang Dingxu'!"
In Gu Ke'er's introduction, Divine Rank is similar to personality, used to describe the state of a god's existence and also to highlight certain characteristics of the god. Generally speaking, Divine Ranks are extremely stable.
I suspect the Elf Main God might have been influenced by the faith of the Elves, but I have no evidence, and it is even less possible to ask a True God, so for now, it is just a guess.
"After several changes, it never stabilized. In the last thousand years, it has manifested as a goddess, which is actually a sign of an unstable Divine Rank."
"For non-Arcanists to cast spells, the first thing they must do is Mawang Dingxu. Some people complete this process unintentionally; this is a kind of talent and also a kind of luck, but it is indeed very rare."
Xia Shao had originally thought that the members of the Seven Dun Mage Association had naturally mastered spellcasting abilities after reincarnation. Now it seems that wanting to continue being a Mage after reincarnation is truly not easy!
Or rather, the secret changes of the Divine Rank.
Regarding Xia Shao's request for exchange, the Seven Dun Mage Association did not refuse, nor did they have any reason to refuse, and as for the spellcasting method in the Licheng Weimian, Gu Ke'er explained it to Xia Shao:
Xia Shao was very interested in the mature spellcasting methods explored in the Licheng Weimian. Although he could now cast spells in the Licheng Weimian, he mainly relied on Arcane Fire.
In the reception hall, Xia Shao and the Mages of the Seven Dun Mage Association engaged in a heated exchange on topics related to the Mortal Plane and the Heavenly Realm, some common and some secret.
From the Ascension Ritual the Elves had previously given to the tower, Xia Shao had speculated that the Elf Main God might not be a purely Order God; it was only after the Princess's improvements that the Ascension Ritual achieved an Order God.
"Why the Arvandor Shenguo participates in the Eternal Night War is something we ordinary residents living in the Holy City find hard to fathom, but I heard a legend that it has to do with the Elf Main God's Divine Rank."
"The Heavenly Realm Magic Net is ever-changing. Arcanists can obtain a relatively stable spellcasting channel with the help of Arcane Fire. Although they still need to supplement it through various elements, it is much more convenient than for others."
Hearing such gossip, Xia Shao felt both shocked and a sense of sudden enlightenment. He had previously met an avatar of the Elf Main God in Cormanthor, but it was a female who called herself "Kelanni"!
But regardless, listening to it as gossip is quite interesting. At the very least, Xia Shao now knows that the image the Elf Main God manifests to the outside world has been constantly changing, which to a certain extent also reflects some psychological shifts the other party has undergone over a long period.
"The indigenous people of the Heavenly Realm (including reincarnators who were Mages before death) must undergo long and arduous training to achieve this!"
Regarding this, the members of the Seven Dun Mage Association still did not show the slightest impatience. The Netherese Mages of the Main Plane are not so easy to talk to, but this time they changed to another person, and a Mage named Gu Ke'er answered Xia Shao:
So that's how it is!
