After that, in order to complete their respective tasks, Fang Li and Sylvia began spending less and less time together.
To continue obtaining Grimoire Original Texts, Fang Li did his best to gather intelligence through various means and devoted himself to it, carrying out quite a few operations in secret.
Sometimes, Fang Li succeeded.
Other times, Fang Li failed.
It had never been a simple task.
Due to their inherent danger and special nature, Grimoire Original Texts were generally sealed within the headquarters of various magical factions and were not casually displayed to the public.

That was the kind of intelligence Fang Li gathered.
After all, even Fang Li could not simply infiltrate the headquarters of every magical faction.
If they were relatively small magical factions, Fang Li's current abilities meant he was not without a way to force his way in.
However, Grimoire Original Texts were basically all kept by magical factions influential enough to affect national policy.
Take the Roman Orthodox Church, for example. It claimed to have two billion believers. Even if only one ten-thousandth of them were magicians, that would still amount to a full two hundred thousand people.

Naturally, such opportunities were few.
But the world was vast. Opportunities would
