Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy-Chapter 553 - 551: Jenny’s Current Situation
Chapter 553: Chapter 551: Jenny’s Current Situation
Underground world, a secret cavern.
The cavern was surrounded by earthy-yellow jade pillars, which upon closer inspection turned out to be strange tree roots that sealed the outside of the cavern tightly.
In other words, this was a secret space woven out of odd tree roots.
The rest of the cavern was empty, save for a statue of a woman standing in the center, which was also fashioned from some kind of tree root with no trace of carving.
If Ivan had been there, he would have recognized at a glance that the statue was of Jenny.
“You’ve come, Lilabet.”
“Am I late, dear Blai Bu?”
“No, I have just arrived myself.”
Abruptly, one after the other, two figures of regal bearing appeared in the cavern. They greeted each other familiarly and then both set their sights on the statue at the center.
The latter to arrive was the Dark Night Mother Goddess, Lillibet Elsop.
The first to arrive was Blai Bu Elsop, revered as the ‘Mother of the Sea,’ an ancient deity related to the oceans who was indeed a direct descendant of the Mother of Earth Core, Claudia.
There was only one reason why the two goddesses cared so much about the statue: it was in fact an incarnation of Jenny Alsop, rooted there.
“Would you look at Jenny, so full of life, just like when we were born, under Claudia’s protection. I think Jenny must be very happy right now.”
Blai Bu assessed the statue from side to side, nostalgically contemplating.
“Of course, Claudia’s loving kindness wraps around everything, making it feel extraordinarily warm.” Lilabet nodded approvingly.
Both could see that Jenny’s power inheritance and transformation were going smoothly, which gave them the leisure to fondly recall the beautiful days of their youth.
In their words, their reminiscence of the Mother of Earth Core was unmistakable.
After a moment of reflection and repeated confirmation that Jenny was stable, the two inexplicably exchanged a look and then left the cavern.
In fact, they did not go far but appeared in the Great Rift Valley, a distance away, on a pure, unblemished strange rock.
“Blai Bu, didn’t you say you wanted to further explore the secret technique of the Abyss Netherworld, what was the outcome?”

“The conclusion is the same as yours; Jenny’s birth was the result of a series of factors, including a strand of affection for our mother above all, which could be described as a fortunate coincidence.”
Hearing Lilabet’s question, the Mother of the Sea, Blai Bu, gently shook her head.
By ‘above all,’ she was referring to the grand will of the Danaila World. Just this point alone made the possibility of replication negligibly small.
“And that human sorcerer is not simple either; he was chosen by the power of wisdom, such beings are few and far between.” Blai Bu paused for a moment before continuing.
“That’s exactly why I haven’t held so much against him; otherwise, I would have reduced that human sorcerer to ashes long ago,” Lilabet expressed.
In the last era’s great war, countless from the Mother of Earth Core lineage had perished, and the survivors still suffered severe backlash and had not recovered to this day.
Jenny was a direct descendant born in recent years, the only one unaffected by the backlash.
No matter how coincidental Jenny’s birth was, Lilabet and others would not give up the slightest chance to seek a new path of continuation for their lineage.
It turned out that the likelihood of Jenny’s birth being replicated was nonexistent.
Next, they also tried to free Jenny from control, thinking of countless methods, yet none succeeded.
These two points filled them with regret.
Of course, these were hidden confessions confirmed behind Jenny and Ivan’s backs, without their knowledge.
“Speaking of which, there are not a few who inherit the power of wisdom,” Blai Bu added.
“He is a bit different; he could skillfully use the power of wisdom even when his strength was very low, which is rare indeed.” Lilabet clearly sensed Ivan’s circumstances and knew what allowed his rapid rise to power.
Blai Bu fell silent for a moment, an admission she had to make.
Regarding the power of wisdom, they both understood, but not extensively.
They only knew it was left by an unparalleled mighty being who had reigned supreme over many worlds, a being with many honored titles such as the Old Sage of Wisdom, the Wise Sage, the Great Prophet of Wisdom, the Wisdom Ancestor God, and so on.
To speak offensively, such a person should be more formidable than Claudia.
Precisely because the being’s strength was unparalleled in different realms, he had left footprints in many worlds, leaving behind numerous legends and legacies, which meant he had no small number of inheritors.
Among the many inheritors from different worlds, the possibility was minimal for that human sorcerer to secure the last legacy power.
In their view, that human sorcerer, despite having some unique traits, was still not adequate before them.
“Right, that person is heading underground now,” Lilabet mentioned another matter.
“He ignored your warning?” Blai Bu lightly furrowed her brow.
“No, he is a smart man. He contacted me through the Silver Moon Blade in advance to explain his purpose for going to the underground world and even asserted that he would absolutely not step foot in Kemor Empire’s territory.”
“He knows his place.”
Hearing this, Blai Bu’s expression softened slightly, considering Jenny, she didn’t quarrel too much.
Upon the pristine white stone platform in this nameless rift valley, the two graceful figures talked for a long time before saying goodbye and disappearing from the scene.
No one knew that not far from here, a special being was steadfastly receiving the power bestowed by the Mother of Earth Core, resolutely advancing towards the level of a lord.
…
Elsewhere.
Ivan had stayed in Rainbow Domain for a year. Seeing the territory was on the right track, he pondered deeply about his next move and decided it was time for some serious business, so he took a few people with him to the underground world.
There was more than one passage between the underground world and the surface.
Naturally, there was one in the Botta Blood Plain as well, near the Bai Ta Continent close to the White Fish Continent.
“Dammit! You go too far, always troubling this sorcerer.”
“Human sorcerers are the worst, don’t even think about entering the underground world.”
No matter which place’s passage it was, there was always a secret channel underground, including the pervasive layer of magma and the haunting Molten Lords.
Just like that, Ivan had encountered a Molten Lord once again.
It was unknown which Arcane Wizard had caused such trouble, tarnishing the reputation of human sorcerers so that these Molten Lords gave no chance for discussion and just went straight to battle upon sight.
These Molten Lords, peculiarly, belonged to a special group organized by Danaila World, making them inappropriate to kill.
“Boom, boom, boom.”
Like the Molten Lords, Ivan was also a master of fire, effortlessly maneuvering in the magma layer, and for a while, the two exchanged blows back and forth.
After a few rounds, Ivan noticed other disturbances in the distance. He used a move to trap the Molten Lord there and continued his advance towards the underground world.
“Have fun by yourself; this sorcerer is leaving.”
“Damn it, human sorcerer, dare you give me your name?”
“Spark Fowler.”
“Despicable Spark, you actually tricked me, next time, the time after next, and even the time after that, I’m not done with you.”
Ivan no longer paid attention to the noise behind him; he realized these Molten Lords were just stubborn fools, and talking was pointless with them. If necessary, he’d just fight them every time they met since Molten Lords’ individual combat strength wasn’t overwhelming, and he could easily handle them.
Soon after, Ivan escaped the layer of lava and arrived at the northern boundary of the first layer of the underground world.
It was said that the North Boundary was the most prosperous area of the entire first underground layer because the passage to the second underground layer was here, and the North Boundary also had its own ruling race — the Red-Bearded Giants.
