Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 1075 - 227: The Savior

Xia Wenxu possesses the "Heavenly Vision," and when he first laid eyes on Gu Feng, he sensed that this seemingly honest and timid Light Mage was anything but ordinary.

Upon returning to the Dutian Inn, Xia Wenxu inquired with Yun Sheng and, after learning about Gu Feng’s destiny, made the conclusion he just shared with him.

Gu Feng is a friend of Yun Sheng. According to Yun Sheng, Gu Feng’s abilities are average; he’s just a Sky Mage.

Could a mage with such cultivation truly hold the secrets to crafting a New Magic Array?

The Dutian Blood Seal was the strongest magic array, created by the Eight Great Masters using the blood of the Eight Great Clan Leaders of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan.

It has existed for nearly ten thousand years, serving as a natural barrier between the Wuji Continent and the Bahuang Continent.

How could a mere Sky Mage compare to the likes of the Eight Great Masters and the Bahuang Clan Leaders?

Xia Wenxu was puzzled. He originally planned to discuss with Gu Feng personally after the Heavenly Destiny, but unexpectedly, after nightfall, Gu Feng came to find him on his own.

Xia Wenxu took the opportunity to ask about Gu Feng’s magic cultivation.

To Xia Wenxu’s surprise, Gu Feng’s mastery of Light Magic was something even he couldn’t replicate.

Xia Wenxu’s silence made Gu Feng feel uneasy.

"I’ve understood the meaning behind the words of the Magic God; perhaps the key to the Magic Array we’ve been searching for lies within you. You are the savior of the Wuji Continent’s safety," Xia Wenxu said, leaving Gu Feng stunned.

The savior?

Seriously, Gu Feng is the savior?

If anyone but Xia Wenxu had said this, Gu Feng would have burst out laughing.

However, in front of Xia Wenxu, Gu Feng definitely dared not do so.

It was as if he had returned to his early days at the Magic Academy; Gu Feng’s stuttering, which had long since vanished, unexpectedly returned, "Xia... Xia Siming, please... don’t scare me, such a heavy crown... it might crush me."

Xia Wenxu said nothing further, merely gazing at Gu Feng.

Gu Feng, feeling guilty under his gaze, muttered, "Xia Siming, are you serious about what you said?"

Despite his words, Gu Feng knew that Xia Siming was unlikely joking.

"Perhaps many don’t know, but the Dutian Blood Seal is actually a Light Magic Array. Its essence is very similar to your Bright Celestial Sphere," Xia Wenxu and Chang Siming discovered this only after the Blood Seal collapsed.

The hostility within the Dutian Beast Blood Realm is the most malevolent and filthy power in the world.

To seal this hostility, only a special Light Magic Array of opposite attributes can be used.

This special Light Magic Array must meet two conditions: first, it must have extremely strong defenses to withstand the vast hostility from both inside and outside the seal.

The second condition is that this Magic Array must be low in consumption.

In the absence of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, the fewer Magic Arrays used, the longer they can last. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Gu Feng’s Bright Celestial Sphere happens to fulfill these two conditions.

The more Gu Feng listened, the less confident he felt.

"Xia Siming, there’s still one thing I don’t understand. The Magic Array is lifeless, but I am human. I can try to maintain the Bright Celestial Sphere, but I can’t possibly stay in the Blood Realm for my entire life, can I?" As a Light Mage, Gu Feng naturally dislikes places like the Blood Realm, full of slaughter and hostility.

During every experience, he endures with an attitude of avoiding it whenever possible.

From Xia Wenxu’s words, if the Bright Celestial Sphere could truly stabilize the Dutian Blood Realm, doesn’t that mean he would have to stay in the Blood Realm forever?

"Indeed, once the new Magic Array is drawn, you will have to remain in the Blood Realm for a lifetime until your life is exhausted," Xia Wenxu’s final words struck Gu Feng like a thunderclap.

Stay here forever?

Then wouldn’t he never see Lingling, Yun Sheng, and Qi again?

Would he end up like Feng Tian, becoming a monster?

"Ex...Excuse me, Xia Siming, I can’t agree to this," Gu Feng instinctively refused.

He worried Xia Wenxu would insist, so he hurriedly ran out.

Xia Wenxu did not give chase, but his amber eyes flickered with a peculiar gleam.

He seemed to murmur to himself, or perhaps lament aloud, "If it could be easily changed, it wouldn’t be fate."

Outside, the sound of footsteps approached.

Chang Siming walked in.

"Wenxu, any new discoveries?"

Facing Chang Siming’s anxious expression, Xia Wenxu hesitated slightly and shook his head.

Chang Siming, initially full of hope, sighed.

The night was as cool as water. After leaving Xia Siming’s tent, Gu Feng’s mind was even more chaotic.

He returned to the camp and went to sleep with his clothes on.

That night, he had many chaotic dreams. At times, Xia Wenxu transformed into a demon, forcing him to use blood to draw a new Magic Array.

Then, Xia Wenxu became Lingling, her expression cold, "Gu Feng, we are impossible. You are a coward. I want a hero who can save the entire Wuji Continent."

Later, Gu Feng’s dream returned to his hometown’s small mountain village.

The once lush green village was now littered with corpses, the Blood Cloud Beasts rampant everywhere, and he watched as his youngest sister was swallowed whole by a Blood Cloud Beast.

"Ah——"

Gu Feng, covered in cold sweat, sat up rigidly.

It was already broad daylight, and Qi was looking at him with concern.

"Gu Feng, I’ve heard about Lingling..." Qi said, having encountered Yun Sheng returning from meditation at dawn and learning from him about the conflict between Gu Feng and Lingling.

Qi had always envied Gu Feng a little. Though he was unremarkable, he had both parents and the adoration of Lingling—things Qi could not achieve.

But only Qi truly knew how deep Gu Feng’s love for Lingling was, deeper even than his own feelings for Yun Sheng.

If he truly parted from Lingling, Gu Feng might never be able to accept anyone else in his lifetime.

"Qi, I’m okay, I just had a nightmare. By the way, have they figured out a new Magic Array yet?" Gu Feng was worried Xia Siming had already told others about his situation.

Fortunately, Qi’s response relieved him.

"There’s been no progress. Creating a new Magic Array isn’t easy. If you’re alright, get up quickly—some injured people have arrived outside, needing your help. Chang Siming is busy finding a new Magic Array, and only Yun Sheng is available as a Doctor; it’s too much for him," Qi had come to seek Gu Feng’s assistance.

"Injured people? Weren’t they all treated yesterday? Why have so many arrived at once?" After getting up, Gu Feng left the camp and headed to the inn.
