Herag told the Toad everything he knew about the Sixth Ring Tower, as well as the origin of the pocket watch and the information left within it.

Originally, there were six Sixth Ring Wizards in the Sixth Ring Tower, and now the Toad's true form in the Abyss Plane has reached Sixth Ring strength.

Herag speculated that perhaps the Toad was one of those six Sixth Ring Wizards, but somehow had transformed into his current form.

The Toad took the pocket watch, examined it closely, and opened it for a careful look.

He then said, "I have a very familiar feeling with this. Your speculation may be true. I've forgotten so many things, I can't even remember why I was sleeping. But the reason I awoke was because I sensed the presence of the pocket watch and the aura of your Meditation Method."

"After perceiving these auras, I awoke and quickly came over to where you were, but unfortunately, I didn't realize you couldn't understand Abyssal Common Tongue at the time..."

Herag was quite surprised that the pocket watch and his Starry Sky Meditation Technique were what awakened the Toad.

He first entered the Abyss Plane in the Moonlight Forest, which was where he encountered the Toad for the first time.

The Shivara he encountered at the time was an invincible existence to Herag, virtually impossible to deal with.

If the Toad hadn't appeared in time, he would have died.

At the time, it seemed like mere chance, but now it seems like everything was arranged.

From the moment Herag picked up the pocket watch, the gears of fate began to turn.

If not for this pocket watch, Herag wouldn't have bought that seemingly ordinary wooden disc.

It was only because the wooden disc was engraved with the image of the Sixth Ring Tower that Herag decided to purchase it.

However, the wooden disc was actually a plane coordinate, and it led Herag to enter the Abyss Plane later in the Moonlight Forest.

When he entered the Abyss Plane, the pocket watch's aura and the Starry Sky Meditation Technique's aura awakened the Toad, which led to the events thereafter.

After pondering for a moment, Herag asked, "These events feel like you had arranged them before; though I don't know why you were asleep, it seems like they were prepared for your later awakening."

Looking over the entire process, Herag couldn't help but think that these events were orchestrated by the Toad himself.

Though the Toad has forgotten many things now, the pocket watch, Starry Sky Meditation Technique, and wooden disc were all preparations for his awakening.

The Toad said, "It really feels like it. If these were all foreshadowings I left behind, then everything makes sense. Although I still can't recall many things, it shouldn't be long before all memories return."

"Nicholas Carlos Camby... Tomorrow, I'll go to the library in Silver Moon City to check. Now I can enter the fourth and fifth levels, so maybe I'll find some information related to you."

Herag had also planned recently to record and store the remaining two levels of library material, so this was a perfect opportunity to see if there was any information related to the Toad.

If the Toad was truly Nicholas, then there's a high chance he was a renowned figure in the Sixth Ring Tower.

Even if the Land of Dawn deliberately concealed some information about the Sixth Ring Tower, a figure like Nicholas would inevitably leave behind traces.

"Why does the Wizard Plane have an Abyss Plane aura?" The Toad looked around and sniffed.

He was stronger than Herag, and his true form was a powerful demon of the Abyss Plane, naturally making him keenly perceptive of its aura.

Herag said, "I used the Sands of Time before and saw some future fragments. In those future fragments, many powerful entities descended upon the Wizard Plane, nearly destroying it. I suspect there's already a space tunnel to the Abyss Plane."

"The space tunnel probably isn't fully established yet, or else it wouldn't be so calm now." The Toad replied, "But it's likely in the stage of being built, with someone having the stable coordinates to open a tunnel, causing the Abyss Plane aura to spread here."

"Is there any way to stop it?" Herag asked.

The Toad shook his head, "It's very difficult. Don't you feel the Abyss Plane aura is everywhere now? Establishing a space tunnel can be understood as digging through a mountain, and once you've created a tunnel through the mountain, the space tunnel is established."

"It's a very slow process, and right now it should be in the early stages of digging a hole on the mountain's exterior, just a small pit outside the Wizard Plane, with the Abyss Plane aura seeping through this pit, spreading everywhere."

"Under these conditions, it's almost impossible to locate where they are digging; it could be anywhere on the plane."

Having said that, Herag understood.

The current problem is that they don't know which coordinate the other side has from the Abyss Plane.

The number of coordinates for a plane is nearly infinite, and trying to find out which coordinate the other side holds is almost impossible.

Without knowing the coordinates, they can't interfere with the Abyss Plane establishing the space tunnel.

"Seems like there's no way to solve it." Herag sighed.

Seeing Herag sighing, the Toad asked, puzzled, "Is the Wizard Plane still a Middle-tier World now?"

"Yes, could it possibly upgrade to a High-tier World?" Herag asked.

"Of course. If people can become stronger, why can't a plane?" The Toad replied.

Herag eagerly asked, "How does a plane become more powerful?"

The Toad explained, "It's related to the people within the plane. Someone needs to advance to the limit of the plane, then break through that limit, which will drive the entire plane to start upgrading."

"This... This seems too simple." Herag was skeptical.

The Toad continued, "Let me give you an example. You are currently a Level 2 Wizard and need to perceive various rules and gain the recognition of the World Will to advance to Level 3. But do you know how a Level 3 can upgrade to Level 4?"

"I haven't learned about it yet; it's too far away for me." Herag said.

"To advance from Level 3 to Level 4, a Level 3 Wizard must create their own Rule Power. In the Wizard Plane, when it was still a Low-tier World, the first wizard to create their own rule allowed their rule to become one of the foundational rules of this plane, leading the Wizard Plane to start upgrading to a Middle-tier World." The Toad explained.
