At that moment, no one could understand how unreal Leo felt; he himself couldn't believe what he was holding in his hands.
How did this thing end up in my hands?
This shouldn't be happening!
"Don't worry, you've pulled him out of the Shadow World, he won't go back to where he was before," Yaoyao said with a smile.
"How did you do that?" Leo asked, his breath coming in heavily through his nose.
He was still unable to shake off his excitement; it was unbelievable. Even as he held the black cube module he had personally pulled over, his entire body radiated an incredulous emotional fluctuation.
The black cube module in his hand was clearly the result of combining three pieces of metal that the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard had collected in the Rota World.
Although he had never seen what the metal bodies looked like after they were assembled, he had seen what they looked like when they were separated.
However, the Metal Module in Beast Blood Boiling's hand is its real form in the real world, and its color is silver, while the one in Leo's hand is a projection of that Metal Module in the Shadow World, and its color is black.
The difference between them is simply the difference between the real person and their shadow!
This is a cosmic treasure! Leo still remembers what all the metal fortresses in the Rota World looked like, and the Level-Five World Lord who integrated two Metal Module into his body, transforming into a ten-thousand-meter-tall metal giant.
Their army of millions of wizards, tens of millions of slaves, motherships, tens of thousands of warships, and level-five Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard —all these combined forces, yet it still took them several years to defeat the ten-thousand-meter-tall metal giant.
At that time, it wasn't the full power of the Metal Module; it was only two-thirds of its full potential. However, that terrifying power still lingered in Leo's mind. Countless times, recalling the war at that time, he felt a chill of fear.
That's incredible!
In the end, if it weren't for the depletion of the giant's energy and the gathering of the power of millions of wizards by the Beast Blood Boiling, that war might have lasted much longer.
When Yaoyao told him that he would become the person who gained the most in the Rota World, Leo really didn't expect that Yaoyao would actually be able to get him this cosmic-level Metal Module shadow.
"Now that you've advanced to the Stigmata Wizard level, you're capable of knowing some things about the Shadow World,"
"Before, your strength was too low, and I was afraid that telling you would affect your mentality and disrupt your path to advancement, so I kept it from you," Yaoyao said.
Leo nodded. He was only at level two at the time. If he had been told about the black cube module directly, it might have affected his mindset, and his future development might have been completely different from what it is now.
A cosmic treasure, which even Stigmata Wizard do not possess, was suddenly placed before Level Two Wizard. He knew he was unlikely to be able to maintain his composure.
This is not a lack of self-confidence, but rather a clear understanding of oneself.
It's like when you're in elementary school, and someone suddenly tells you that you're the descendant of the richest man in the world, and now you're responsible for inheriting billions of dollars.
Who could resist such temptation!
" The Shadow World is a projection of the real world, you know that."
Leo nodded; he already knew that.
"But what you don't know is that the Shadow World stores all the shadows since the birth of the real world,"
"Back in the Rota World, I simply compared the location of the Metal Module to the Shadow World, and used the rope made from your shadow to grab the shadows they had left in that spot. It was that simple."
Leo quickly digested what Yaoyao had told him. This was indeed knowledge he didn't know. There was very little recorded information about the Shadow World in the real world, and most of it was just legend, which couldn't be taken seriously at all.
As the only known Yaoyao of the Shadow World, Yao Yao's words carry the most authority.
"So this is the shadow left behind by the cosmic-level treasure Metal Module in the Rota World back then?" Leo asked.
Yaoyao nodded.
"No wonder you insisted on going to the fortresses of the other two World Lord; it turns out you were looking for the locations of the other two broken Metal Module projected in the Shadow World."
Yaoyao's words solved many of Leo's mysteries and helped him understand Yaoyao's strange behavior at the time.
After the great battle ended, Yaoyao insisted that Leo take her to see the fortresses of the other two World Lord. Leo asked her what she wanted to do, but Yaoyao wouldn't say. Now he understands everything.
"What about the other rope?"
Leo gripped the black cube module in his hand and looked at the rope made of three shadows that was tied to the right side of the statue.
If the rope that was just tied to the shadow of the cosmic-level treasure Metal Module, then what is the other, thickest shadow tied to?
"You guess!"
Yaoyao's mischievous smile prompted Leo to guess.
"You didn't tie the shadow of the Hundred-Page World to a certain point in time, did you?" Leo swallowed nervously and asked anxiously.
Although Leo asked Yaoyao, the certainty in his tone already indicated that Leo knew.
"Yes, that's right, it's the Hundred-Page World that's bound to it."
"That little bug dared to seal me, of course I'll bind him. Once you're strong enough, bring him over, I'll teach him a lesson."
The mention of the Hundred-Page World Yaoyao with rage. He had never suffered such humiliation before, being sealed away by a mere insect. He would not be satisfied until he captured the insect and beat it up every day.
That wicked bastard actually ambushed me! If I had been prepared, how could he have possibly sealed me away?
After receiving Yaoyao's affirmative answer, Leo didn't listen to the rest of what Yaoyao; his entire mind was filled with thoughts of that rope.
That's a whole hundred worlds!
He's tied right in front of me now; I can just pull the rope to bring him over.
The Hundred-Page World was the most terrifying existence Leo had ever seen. If he had it in his hands, what would he have to worry about in the struggles of the Wizard World?
Even if each world's area is only equivalent to one plane, a total of one hundred worlds is still an astonishing number.
Putting everything else aside, the value of the level 5 pureblood dragon in the first world alone is immeasurable. Leo doesn't believe that the other 99 worlds are all barren worlds!
Leo believed that as long as he got his hands on the Hundred-Page World Hundred-Page World, its resources would be enough for him to advance to the level of Supreme Lord.
Thinking this, Leo walked towards the rope, but was stopped by Yaoyao after only one step. "Do you think you can pull it? That's a whole hundred worlds! Even if they're just minor planes, it's still a whole hundred!"
" The Hundred-Page World is not a single-universe-level treasure like the Metal Module; their scales are completely incomparable."
"We were just holding you in a Shadow Space, and before you could even pull the projection of the Hundred-Page World over, we were pulled over there."
"When will we be able to pull it?" Leo stared at the rope with hungry eyes; this feeling of being able to look but not touch it was awful.
No wonder Yaoyao didn't dare tell him before; this feeling of being tormented by a hundred claws was indeed unbearable.
This is the shortcut to the ultimate power in the universe right in front of you, only to be told that the path is blocked. This kind of torment truly tests one's mentality.
It would have been better not to tell Leo about this at all!
"You should be ready by the time you reach level six, so don't get your hopes up now." Yaoyao ruthlessly shattered Leo's beautiful dream.
Level 6? That's something that's thousands or even tens of thousands of years from now.
Leo reluctantly shifted his gaze from the rope and continued looking at the black cube module in his hand. After staring at it for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out.
It has a tactile feel in your hand, but no weight; it's like holding a light, fluffy ball of cotton.
"It's not a physical entity, just a projection in the Shadow World. How do we use it?" Leo asked.
This was the first time he had obtained a cosmic-level treasure; of course, the Fate Wizard Book didn't count, as what he obtained was just a clone.
The treasure was of such a high level that Leo didn't know how to proceed for a moment.
Furthermore, the black cube module in Leo's hand did not react at all; it simply kept changing shape on its own, completely ignoring Leo.
"He is a projection of a cosmic treasure in the Shadow World. Influenced by the rules of the Shadow World, you, as a being from the real world, naturally cannot use it, but your shadow can."
"The shadow of every life is essentially a life in the Shadow World. They can use real-world treasures just like you; they use projections of those treasures."
"As I understand it, your shadow can be connected to your soul, which means your soul can be used through your shadow," Yaoyao said.
"What about its functions? Is it the same as the one in reality?" Leo asked, repeatedly examining the black cube module in his hand.
This was his biggest concern. Even if he couldn't unleash his full potential, Leo would be satisfied as long as he could perform at half the level.
"It's exactly the same when you use your shadow."
"You need to understand one thing: the Shadow World is the other side of the real world. Although the rules are different, they are on the same side, and the concepts are the same," Yaoyao said.
"I think I understand."
"You mean that the concept of me holding Metal Module in reality is the same as my shadow holding a black cube module in the Shadow World, and that the functions they perform are exactly the same?" Leo said.
"Yes, that's exactly right."
"You previously said that this black cube module was fixed at the moment when the Metal Module fell into the Rota World, allowing us to pull him out of that time projection. What about other periods?"
"For example, right now, I could go find the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard and, while I'm observing the Metal Module in his hand, could you still bind the current projection to the Shadow World?"
