Of course, I have fabricated a small lie in order to motivate these rascals. I am the one who should reach the level of a trainee because I am the link between the domain and the outside world.
All the burden falls on me alone. If I reach this level, we will be able to leave here, and then they will remain within the domain, unable to see the outside world until they reach this trainee level. That's all there is to it.
"Wait, what if I become a gray-form Mage? I am currently at the peak of the white form. Will I be able to survive outside?"
I asked Jaha, as I feel that I can break through to the gray form at any moment, but there is something missing. Something I don't know... just a little push.
"You won't be able to because your body is not adapted to the power outside. However, there might be a slim chance... You won't be able to break through to the gray form here, no matter how hard you try, because you need to sense the law of the supreme form to do so. And as I said, there are no such laws here..."
Jaha smiled as he answered the question but seemed happy. I don't know what's going on in his head until he continued, saying:
"I can help you break through, but it will accelerate the collapse of this world. I can use the law of formation here and make you feel it, but the continent will be affected, and the center will become stronger quickly. The duration for us to leave will become 5 months instead of 6."
Silence filled the place. Damn, how tempting it is to obtain the law. But before starting anything, it is better to know my capabilities. If I fail to understand the law in the end, it will be a waste of time, and it will bring greater danger upon us.
"Do you think I can really break through?"
I looked at him with a meaningful gaze. He knows the risks of failure more than me, after all. Suddenly, he started laughing and began drinking from the bottle of wine again.
"It seems you didn't listen to the explanation I previously gave about the laws... Well, let's go over it again. The law is truly something. If you possess understanding, you possess power... Ordinary people focus on one law throughout their lives, and the geniuses among them focus on two laws... of course, the main laws. There are subsidiary laws... Those who master a certain law to a certain extent can derive subsidiary laws from it, and so on. The astonishing ones are the monstrous geniuses, geniuses among geniuses... They train in three main laws. But you, the heir of the heavens, haven't used this advantage until now. Everyone can use the elements, but not everyone can use all the laws... That's why I think the ratio is good."
Damn, it seems this drunkard has taken on the role of a sage here. Damn him... But honestly, he's good at it. That's how it is, then... the heir of the heavens, huh? I will make the heavens regret this decision... Making me an heir... Damn, it seems even the heavens make mistakes. Hahaha...
We directly transitioned to the ninth level of hell within hell. I found it different from the last time... because I couldn't move at all, completely immobilized. My whole body started contracting under the pressure... and blood began to seep from my pores. Damn, what is happening here?
"Focus well on comprehending the law from within the formation. I will cast a gray formation to assist you further. Oh, by the way, this tower is on the second level now.
Damn, Level 2. Does this mean the tower has changed?
Can I return here again? What the hell is going on? I tried to turn my head to see the place, but I couldn't. All I could feel was the pressure...
Pressure that I couldn't bear. And above all, I am under the protection of Jaha, whose exact strength I don't know...
Damn, there's still a lot ahead of me...
I immediately entered a contemplative state and began to sense what Jaha was doing...
The entire floor remained still, nothing happened. I expected vibrations as usual, but...
"The primary role of formations is defense... Hence, it is a peaceful and calm force... Of course, that doesn't mean it is a weak law. It's just extremely mysterious...
There are a few mages... considered on the same level as alchemists who produce various medicinal pills.
The world outside relies on medicinal pills to enhance the power of trainees...
And then there are mages in different formation positions.
Defensive formations, and even offensive ones...
Formations for accelerating cultivation...
There are the strangest formations in the world... It always depends on your understanding of the law..."
Silence filled the air, and then he moved his hand, and gray lines began to appear directly in front of my face, wrapping around my body.
*Ding* "The host has entered the gray formation... 'Pressure Suppression,' a formation that can alleviate the pressure on the host..."
...
The trace of the Great Formation Law has been discovered... The power of the Heir of the Heavens has been activated...
...
The root of the law has been opened... The host has acquired the Great Formation Law, First Classification, Level 1... Understanding ratio: 1... from ???...
*
*
*Ding* "The host has penetrated into the realm of Gray-Form Mage formation...
...
The conditions for beginning training on the Sacred Formation 'Ancient Formation' have been provided...
0%
::
::
50%
...
...
100%
...
The Heavenly Formation skill has been integrated into the Sacred Formation."
Immediately after that, significant changes occurred in Mazino's body...
Damn, the power of the laws is truly something not to be trifled with...
...
*Ding* "The host has reached Level 9 of the Deep Formation Realm...
The breakthrough gift has been sent to the storage for Gray-Form Mages..."
Damn... I feel a tremendous difference in my power level.
Damn, I thought I had at least some strength, but it turns out I was just bragging about some insects in a forgotten world, considered a farm where they pick some treasures to make weapons...
...
Damn this weakness...
Mazino was never happy with this progress because he only discovered how weak he truly was... Damn it.

"And now we have the power to control this world... but if other Mages from that faction outside interfere, our plan will fail...
...
We exited the tower and gathered all the members, the entire army, in front of me...
Then I began to execute a new plan...
I raised my hands to the sky, and gray formations started forming in the heavens, covering everything in gray.
And suddenly, the formations began empowering the soldiers...
Both Jaha and Yami did the same...
'Support Formation'...
A very simple formation, but it is sufficient because we are already in a weak world, and we don't need all this power.
The purpose of the formation is to protect the soldiers... and since it's gray in color, not even the monks can harm my army...
"No one in this world currently has the ability to do anything to you... absolute defense...
That's why we will spread chaos...
Every individual here will join one of the major factions in the alliances... Gain a high position through your strength...
...
Then start the conflict between the alliances...
Ignite chaos in the place...
Remember, there are only two individuals that if you encounter them, immediately return to the Domain...
And as for how you will recognize them... they possess the same gray aura that I now have. They are also Gray-Form Mages... they are the true enemies...
And remember, the main objective of this mission is to acquire all the resources of this world...
It is the complete theft of a world... the greatest heist in the history of the clan,
Hahaha...
