1163 Shards of the Sky Part 1 (2/2)

\”No need to be in a hurry to clean up the battlefield!\” Saleen commanded his two followers to create a set of coordinates. It was an effort involving all three of them, as it would make the coordinates considerably more stable.

Daniel used death magic, Saleen used elemental magic, and Isabella used silver sword aura. A set of coordinates with three types of attributes would make it difficult to be erased. Saleen created a link between them and the coordinates to prevent them from getting lost.

Magic compasses were not all useful in interdimensional spaces. If one intended to return to a certain point, it was best to use coordinates. Saleen did not think that to be enough and summoned a large puppet. He simply let the puppet stand there, doing nothing.

There were many puppets left on the battlefield and all of them had long been drained. The damages they suffered were difficult to repair. The large thing that Saleen had taken in a while ago did not look out of place at all in a battlefield littered with puppets.

The large puppet served both as a guard as well as a mark. Saleen would still be able to connect to the puppet's soul so long as he stayed within a hundred miles radius.

Once he was done with all that, Saleen took his two followers and took to the air, flying at the defending side of the battlefield.

Saleen had to land every hundred miles to set up new coordinates. The battlefield spanned over 400 miles. Saleen flew over 1000 miles before arriving at the end of the land.

A black ocean lay at the end of the land and Saleen felt a lot better at seeing water. That interdimensional space was not all that desolate, but the water element was not all that stable as well, feeling rather lacking. Water element finally looked thick when they came near the ocean.

However, Saleen was not in the mood to look into the black waters. He only knew that the black waters did not contain poisons and that some components within were hardly of any difference with that on Myers Mainland. The waters should be able to host living beings, but it was entirely dead instead.

What Saleen was concerned about the most at the moment was that he finally saw the temple, floating on the ocean.

Saleen was very moved. It was the first time he felt so strongly about bagging the entire temple. There was a patch of land beneath the temple of unknown material. His Elemental Eye scanned the dirt and rocks, finding a beehive structure.

There were 24 temples on top of the island. The temples were constructed completely of wood, elegant and intricate. They bore no similarities to the other temples of the Goddess of Myers.

The island was about 80 miles away from shore and the hall took less than one-third of the island. Saleen took a deep breath to calm his rising emotions. \”Let's get up there.\”

Daniel and Isabella were both unable to see it. Their sight was limited to little more than two miles.

Saleen easily took them along using Quickcloud and arrived on the island. The island was 36 miles in length and width, just like Nailisi's 12 Notes of First Purgatory.

Saleen attempted to use territorial powers and found nothing resisting his turf. He grew even more elated as it meant that there were no other powers in the interdimensional space.

But how am I going to bag an island that is 36 miles across? Can I take it apart? It looks feasible given how the place seemed to be put together in blocks. But the puppets would take too much time to take the island apart.

Give up? Hell no! This floating island may actually be part of the Sky City.

He had the mechanical core of the Sky City, Six Element's Heavy Water to nurture the core, and his teacher possessed the Heart of the Sky. If he got the land part of the Sky City, then he would be able to build a complete Sky City, which was far more powerful than a flying tower.

He would no longer need to painstakingly train armies to wage wars. He would only need to bring the Sky City above his enemies' cities and bombard cities. At altitudes of over ten thousand meters, even a pebble could wrought devastating damage.

\”My liege?\” Both Isabella and Daniel were aware that something was not right with Saleen.

\”Do both of you know that the island beneath our feet might actually be a part of the Sky City?\”

Daniel and Isabella were completely dumbstruck.

\”I've seen the Sky City's schematics. It's huge and this island is less than one-tenth of its size. But, even if we are able to create just one chunk of land...\”

\”My liege, this is crazy! There is no way we can take something this big with us!\” Daniel wailed, while Isabella eyed the land beneath her feet with wide-opened eyes.

\”There is definitely something we can do. You saw how big that portal was, how did Myers get it ] here?!\” Saleen immediately knew he was not making sense.

Even if Myers was not a god, she was a level 18 mage and had space equipment that probably rivaled God's Ring.

The God's Ring would definitely be able to bag the entire chunk of land beneath their feet. However, even if Lex gave him her ring, his mental powers meant that he would not be able to take such a huge island.

\”My liege, let's head down to the temples. We might find clues there,\” Daniel reminded Saleen. The Goddess of Myers would definitely have a purpose for leaving a part of the Sky City behind like that.
