Every advancement of a wizard is more dangerous, and there is even a sense of "do it or die".
In the process of advancement, because of the innate witchcraft crystals involved in the sea of consciousness, the wizards at that time had almost no ability to resist.
Therefore, wizards are very careful in choosing the place where they advance every time.
Fortunately for wizards who are within the power of wizard organizations, general wizard organizations will have corresponding places to ensure the safety of wizards as they advance.
And if you are a wild wizard without the benefit of being backed by an organization, then you can only "show your magical powers across the sea"!
William is certainly not alone now.
William, who only joined the "Tower of Wisdom and Knowledge" midway, did not have a high sense of belonging or trust in this wizard organization.
William also discovered before that a third-level great wizard who claimed to admire him had tampered with the advanced items given to him. With such an example, William's impression of this wizard organization naturally became worse.
In addition, William is now in a fairy tale world and cannot and does not want to return to the real world. Therefore, William, who is not a wild wizard, must also find a "foothold" on his own!
For William, this question is not difficult.
He just thought about it for a moment, and a place appeared in his mind, and he felt a sense of nostalgia in his heart. As soon as he thought about it, the Ruyi cloak took him through space, and in an instant he came to a familiar but unfamiliar address.
The price William paid was just the loss of a large part of his magic power.

…
Within the Principality of Estonia.
In the unknown forest near the town of Lansner.
William's figure emerged in front of a large, unremarkable tree.
"In the blink of an eye, I haven't been back for many years! Do you miss this place?"
There was no one nearby, only the breeze passed by playfully, William's hand caressed the trunk of the big tree like a lover, and said to himself.
As his voice fell, a canine creature as huge as a small hill appeared beside him.
A voice like muffled thunder sounded in William's ears.
"At one time, I thought it was a prison, and I really wanted to leave. Later, I left it for a long time, and occasionally, I missed it. Man, why is this?"
"Man, I think this is home. A place where you want to leave and come back again." William said in a low tone with great emotion.
This place is a very special place for both the Void Hound and William.
This is the place where Andersen's fairy tale "The Tinderbox" takes place.
This is also where William gained a loyal demon pet and took a shortcut to become an official wizard through the bond of his soul.
For William, this is a place full of memories.
And this place, which was cast with a brilliant spell by the original owner of the Void Hound, is also a suitable place for breakthrough and advancement.
This place is very cleverly hidden. Although its former owner was only a witch whose strength was comparable to a first-level wizard, the fact that it had not been discovered by anyone from the Lord's Court of Holy Light for decades was enough to prove its concealment.
Even if someone is as powerful as William, if he just passes by in a hurry and doesn't observe carefully, he won't notice anything strange about it.
When we first opened this place, we needed to use a tricky method.
The original owner of this place later worked hard to find a soldier whose soul wave was similar to that of her ancestors, and with the help of the power of the magic circle, he opened this place.
Of course William doesn't have to be in such trouble now.
His current witchcraft attainments and mental strength are not comparable to those of the old witch back then.
Without that soldier, he could still activate the magic circle. William just fiddled with it casually, and a gap in the formation was exposed. With a thought, William's Ruyi Cloak took him directly into it, and after that, everything returned to normal.

…
Inside the secret vault.
The remaining two void hounds had already left with the "Tinderbox".
The gold and silver coins have not decreased, and are still covered with dust.
Judging from the situation, no one has been here for a long time.
Also, the old witch who cooperated with William at the beginning was only at the level of a third-level wizard apprentice. Without soldiers close to the soul fluctuations of her ancestors, she would not have the ability to enter it again.
The soldier named Philip had been dead for many years, and his bones were probably in a state of coldness.
The old witch has no ability, so naturally she can't get in.
But this is a good thing for William.
William thought in his mind, and with just a thought, the wind energy particles in the air obeyed his command like good students, and easily took away all the dust in the secret vault, and finally accumulated it in a corner.
The huge void hound stood conspicuously at the entrance, squatting there like a loyal guard.
"Excuse me, man!" William said.
The Void Hound turned around and nodded at William, then turned his head again.
William also nodded secretly, and his body disappeared on the spot. The next second, the person appeared in the innermost room.
William found that since he got the Ruyi Cloak, he became lazier and lazier.
It takes a few steps to teleport.
"Okay, let's start setting up the balancing magic circle from here!" After William came in, he looked at the surrounding environment and said to himself.
This secret vault has the function of shielding the magic power fluctuations, so William can safely arrange the balancing magic circle-the balance of truth without worrying about the magic power fluctuations being discovered by other people passing by.
As for the materials needed to set up the balancing magic circle - the scale of truth, William has already prepared it.
He took out the magic materials one by one from the space in the blue plaid apron and began to arrange them.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Seven or eight days later.
On a three-dimensional magic array with complicated magic patterns, a black and gold simple scale appeared.
On the phantom of the ancient black and gold balance, words the size of a needle are constantly flowing. Looking at it, one has the feeling of facing the end of the world and the endless truth, and the fluctuations in emotions will gradually disappear.
The naked William slept on top of the magic circle, his whole body covered in the light of the ancient black and gold scales.
The Scale of Truth magic circle has two functions.
One is to keep the creatures within the influence of the magic circle in a sane state, without fear or emotion.
However, this function is only incidental and is an auxiliary function.
Another function, which is the most important, is to keep the subject's sea of consciousness in a balanced and stable state.
And in the sea of consciousness of William, who seemed to be sleeping with his eyes closed, relying on the balancing magic circle of "The Scale of Truth", it was also at a critical moment.
