Sorcerer’s Handbook

“Don’t be nervous,” Sonya said. “The reason we can’t return to reality is that we’re not in the Distant Sky Domain; we’re in a ‘dream.’ Separated by a Dream Phantom barrier, we cannot directly return to reality.”

“As long as we leave the dream and return to the Distant Sky Domain, we can normally exit the Virtual Realm.”

Deya anxiously asked, “Then how do we leave?”

“Find the Dream Master, or simply fly up. The dream’s vertical height isn’t too high; flying a hundred or two hundred meters should be enough to escape,” Sonya said. “But the problem is, once we return to the Distant Sky Domain, we’ll immediately die.”

Ashe was taken aback, “What?”

“The dream is actually a protective mechanism for sorcerers. Once we lose the dream’s protection and are directly exposed in the Distant Sky Domain, we will encounter the ‘Ritual of Prohibited Synchronization of Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon,’ and then die quickly,” Sonya explained. “Only by unfolding a Sanctuary can we resist the domain’s synchronization, but sorcerers can’t keep a Sanctuary unfolded indefinitely, so we have to hide in the dream and not expose ourselves to the domain constantly.”

“Wait,” Deya raised her hand. “Because we don’t have a Sanctuary, we can’t travel through the space gate; because we don’t have a Sanctuary, we can’t leave the dream; because we don’t have a Sanctuary, we can’t return to the Distant Sky Domain and can’t normally exit the Virtual Realm… We can’t leave, we can’t escape—are we doomed then?”

“Yes, it’s a dead end,” the village girl nodded heavily. “This is why every three-wings sorcerer must master the Sanctuary.”

“You either die repeatedly until your soul is annihilated and you are delisted from the ranks of Sanctuary sorcerers, or you endure the torment of ‘spatial teleportation’ and the ‘Ritual of Prohibited Synchronization of Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon’ to enter the Spatial Sect and learn how to unfold a Sanctuary, officially becoming a Sanctuary sorcerer.”
