Time is the most mysterious force in the wizarding world. Historically, there have been many magical items with the power of time, such as the Sands of Time, a treasure that Persia accidentally obtained after defeating and breaching a city, and coincidentally, the legendary Sands of Time was finally scattered into the land at Ike's feet.

So, the reason for the formation of this place of time stagnation is related to the sands of time?

Ike didn't dig deeper, it didn't make much sense. With all the time turners in the British Ministry of Magic's collection, he has little interest in the Sands of Time.

He sat on the floor, closed his eyes, and held his wand in front of him, feeling the changes in his magic. After a long time, I suddenly opened my eyes, and my face was full of light.

The fact that the magic is still flowing, and the consumption is small, but it is still there, which proves that time is still at work here, and the so-called stagnation is just an illusion caused by the slow flow rate.

It's much easier this way, because stagnation and slowness are two different concepts, and the level of danger is not the same.

Ike stood up, took a slight turn around the floor, and then stepped up the stone staircase.

As soon as I stepped on it, my surroundings changed instantly. The decorations as they were thousands of years ago are gone, even the walls are gone, and all that can be seen is a strange color, distorted and changing, without the slightest pattern.

The stone ladder is lonely in it, and when you look up, you can only see a circle of stones spiraling up, and the higher you go, the more dilapidated the stone ladder becomes. Ike slowly walked upward, wand in his hand, raising his vigilance.

This scene is fundamentally different from what Lao Fu said.

When Lao Fu climbed the Tower of Babel, he easily reached the top floor and saw the beautiful garden and the magical tree of life. Looking at Ike again, it's a place where time stands still and this scene in front of me that makes people completely clueless, it can't be this tower, right?

Every, who has lived in this world for more than ten years, knows very well that it is not wrong to dump the pot to magic when something is undecided. What's more, Lao Fu and Dumbledore also said that magic is the most magical thing in this world!

Walking slowly up, silently climbing, but this stone staircase seems to have no end, no matter how long you walk, there is still no end in sight.

Continued, continued, and gradually, there was only one thought left in Ike's mind, and it was this thought that drove him forward. His consciousness was still awake, but his mind could no longer control his body.

The brain keeps giving instructions to stop, but the body has its own thoughts.

Except for mind and magic, there is no control over anything else.

The mechanical climbing made Ike lose his sense of time, he had no idea how long or how far he had walked on the stone staircase, and to his despair, the environment had not changed in the slightest.

The wand was put away at some point, and the clothes on his body became shabby, and his hair grew so long that it dragged to the ground, and there were many gray hairs on it.

The body gradually weakened, there were more wrinkles, and many small spots appeared on the skin. The muscle and fat are also gone, leaving only a folded skin clinging to the bone. Like a terrifying skeleton, but still walking, with the sound of a squeak.

At some point, Ike's soul fell into a deep sleep, as if in a dream, lying on his back on the soft clouds. There is a breeze gently coming out, slowly pushing the clouds, leisurely, very relaxed.

In a trance, there seemed to be soft sunlight falling on the face, warm, and a little itchy with majesty. I scratched it subconsciously, but I didn't need my strength at all.

Ike was a little annoyed, annoyed that his hand was disobedient. So he pushed harder, but his hand still didn't move, and so did the other one.

The sun on his face also became hot, and the itchy feeling made him more and more irritable. Faintly, he felt that something was wrong, this feeling was like a ghost pressing a bed.

Not...... Ghost press?

As if instinctively, Ike's leg jerked down, and then the cloud beneath him tilted abruptly to one side, and he was lifted off the top. A strong sense of weightlessness hits, and it seems that solid ground has appeared in front of me.

The speed of the fall is getting faster and the distance from the ground is getting closer and closer. Ike panicked even more, and his mind suddenly remembered a rumor that he might be able to save his life by rolling himself over when he fell from a great height......

They struggled to get their bodies moving, but they still didn't respond. So harder, harder...... Finally, the fingers moved, then the arms, and then the whole body. And in the process, a powerful force appeared in his body, dispelling the cold for him, dispelling fear, and even stopping his falling body.

"What is this?" Ike's heart was filled with doubts, and in the dark, he thought he was familiar with this power, but he had forgotten its name......

"What the hell?"

"What the hell!"

Ike became more irritable, knowing very well that the name of this power was as important as life.

It seemed like a momentary thing, and the skeleton that was still walking on the stone staircase stopped. Gradually, the long snow-white hair that had dragged behind me became shorter and darker. The folds and spots on the body were gone, and the skin was full, and the flesh reappeared beneath the skin.

The wand quietly fell into his hand, and the tip of the wand shimmered with a soft white light. There was a flash of golden light, intertwined with the white light, and twisted into a cocoon to envelop Ike inside.

Light, dark, light, dark, like breathing, the white gold cocoon flickered rhythmically.

Suddenly! The cocoon glowed, then vanished suddenly, turning into a little starlight. Ike stood with his eyes closed, breathing steadily, everything back to when he first stepped into the tower.

In the next second, his eyes opened, and his wand was raised high and slammed into the ground!

The golden ripples rippled, and the strange scenes around them were like broken mirrors, and cracks like spider webs appeared out of thin air.

"Click, click, click......"

There seemed to be the sound of glass breaking in my ears, and the stone staircase above my head, which was originally out of sight, disappeared, leaving only the short seven steps ahead.

Ahead, there is a dazzling but soft white light.

One step, two steps, three steps, each step down, the white light is a little weaker, and a warmth falls on the body, like the sun in the shade of a dense tree in summer.

Very comfortable.

Four, five, and six steps, Ike took the last step firmly, and the magic power of his whole body surged, violently blowing away the white light in front of him.

Then, suddenly it dawned!

It's like stepping on the void, with the ruined Tower of Babel at your feet and the soft sunlight overhead. The surroundings are full of flowers and plants, and the air is filled with an intoxicating aroma that makes people's spirits unconsciously relaxed.

Directly in the front, there was a dwarf fruit tree in the center, bare, only two leaves still hanging tenaciously on the branches, and a cherry-sized red fruit fell from the leaves.

Plump, with a shimmer like water streaks.

In the dark, Ike learned the name of the fruit, which was the purpose of his trip:

Fruit of Life!
