Wizards chase the truth

"The Starry Sky Wizarding Tablet: as long as a name is on it, the wizarding power it represents will qualify."

"To change one's own position of power, to have more resources, and even to be favored by fate."

"More beings with wizarding potential and extraordinary comprehension will be born within our borders."

“Even in the outer areas, extraordinary new wizards can still emerge.”

"More extraordinary mineral veins will appear in the earth's veins, gradually increasing the original area's volume."

Some powerful old wizards recalled the past.

They were once just a small local force.

Because they cultivated powerful wizard seeds, they achieved a good ranking at the Star Gathering.

That's why they were able to become a powerful force in their own world, in the upper-middle tier.

Throughout the long history of wizards, the forces of the primordial planet, other universes, and worlds have all experienced similar situations.

Each gathering of stars is a moment that changes destiny, involving a large number of wizarding beings.

When one loses, both suffer, and when one gains, both prosper.

The current state of wizarding legends and civilization, and the flourishing of numerous wizarding forces.

The impact of the star-studded event is enormous.

-

The four major celestial powers of the primordial ancient star are probably the wizarding groups most concerned with rankings.

A tradition that has remained unchanged for many years.

The glory of the Sun Witch Clan.

Whether it has truly been broken.

Although most people already have a certain idea in their hearts.

Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you be sure.

Their hearts were filled with trepidation, unease, and even a sense of anxiety and despair.

The undeniable fact is that the Nightmare Wizard defeated more than one Sun Witch.

Even the Thunder Lord and the Demon Lord, who had mostly lost their spiritual consciousness, re-entered the game.

All eyes were focused on the Starry Sky Monument.

The Thunder Lord and the Source Lord exchanged a glance.

The former glanced at the Demon Lord and the God Lord out of the corner of his eye.

Lei Zhu frowned.

The spiritual bodies of the Demon Lord and the God Lord are not natural enough; they are floating and clearly in an AFK or offline state.

Most of the consciousness went elsewhere.

It's not that simple.

It evoked a sense of weakness and vulnerability.

Appearing and disappearing at any moment.

What are those two doing?

Lei Zhu was filled with doubt.

The source also discovered this situation.

A strange light flashed in his eyes.

Regardless of what the two did or what unexpected events occurred.

The most important thing right now is to witness the announcement of the Starry Sky Monument.

Standing atop the inscription, one is enveloped in the glory of the Star Witch.

The closer you are to the front, the greater the benefits you will receive.

Even when venturing into other worlds within the influence of the Wizarding Legend civilization, the heavens.

It can also exempt some extraordinary conflicts arising from differences in the environmental rules they are subject to.

To more quickly complete the extraordinary transformation under the differences of different worlds, or rather, to adapt.

Such as being blessed with good fortune, having constant sparks of wisdom, easily generating inspiration, and having one's mind constantly active and progressive.

These hidden benefits are far more important to wizards than some extraordinary resources.

-

The chaotic fog dissipated.

The sublime stone monument was forged from gold ore veins refined from the core of the world and from billions of extraordinary giant stars.

A light that illuminates the darkness at the ends of the earth.

The names of the stars have been revealed.

"The hundredth Absu is my disciple, my disciple. He succeeded, became a Star Witch, and gained honor. That's wonderful."

They are tall, not of human race, but humanoid beings with four arms and three legs.

Its skin is covered in snake-like scales, and its facial features resemble those of a human.

An unprecedentedly joyful smile appeared on his face. "My Serpent People clan will not remain forever underground millions of miles underground in the Crimson Universe."

"Our people can also look up at the sky and bask in the sunlight. Now, we finally have hope."

-

“Kae, my child, have you seen him? He’s ranked fifty-first. He’s succeeded. He’s broken the previous ceiling of our vicious poison dragon clan. His achievements will only surpass mine and those of our ancestors.”

The extraordinary life form with a dragon's head and a human body shouted excitedly; if the occasion hadn't been inappropriate, it might have roared wildly.

The vicious Poison Dragon clan has been dormant in the 'Black Veil Realm' for far too long.

The emergence of a Star Wizard signifies the possibility of a rise to power.

In the future, wherever the ferocious and venomous dragon clan resides, it will become a place favored by heaven and earth.

The newborn dragons born will have significantly improved talents and intelligence, and are more likely to become geniuses.

Given time, the vicious and venomous dragon clan will be able to return to the pinnacle of the 'Black Veil Realm' and dominate the world's ups and downs.

"Amy, it's my sister, she ranked eightyth, she succeeded, she's been promoted to Star Witch, that's great!"

"Kado, you have not let me down, and you have lived up to your own efforts along the way. As a Star Wizard, you are qualified to compete for the position of the strongest in a realm. In the future, you will grow stronger than me."

"No, he failed. Zan Yun failed. Why did this happen?"

-

Different races, different lives, reacted differently upon seeing the names on the Starry Sky Monument; some were happy, while others were frustrated.

Overall, the majority of respondents were disappointed.

Even though it was a grand gathering of stars in one corner of the primordial heavens, it was not a grand gathering of stars in the complete primordial heavens. The number of young beings who could participate was still counted in the hundreds of millions, or even trillions.

The sun's position is supreme, and the power of its net is limitless, enabling it to carry so many living beings into the stars, breaking them down into every battle and determining victory or defeat.

For a fourth-level Sun Archmage, such a burden is quite troublesome.

It requires most of your energy to maintain.

Excluding most of the weak first-level true spirits and second-level star life forms.

Until the final Star Lord Tournament, the 100 most powerful young beings in all the heavens and myriad realms were selected.

"They carry the hope of new life."

Yuan's tone was gentle, and his temperament was not as strange as the others; he seemed like a normal person.

"I really can't wait to see what kind of dazzling light it will radiate!"

The Thunder Lord remained silent, his expression indifferent, glancing thoughtfully at the Demon Lord and the God Lord out of the corner of his eye.

The Source Lord changed the subject, "The first Star Lord will only be one of those two. Whoever it is, how should we approach and deal with them?"

The moment the Divine Punishment Wizard lost, he could no longer compete for the position of Star Lord.

Although the Star Lord and the Tide High Wizard share the same title, they represent different meanings.

Or it could be described as an expectation.

Previously, Wang Ya was just a possibility, but it never became a reality.

At most, they are qualified to compete with the Sun Witch Clan.

The Source Lord still prefers that the Cangming Wizard should take the first place as the Star Lord.

"Haven't we already discussed it?" Lei Zhu said expressionlessly.

The Source Lord's smile remained unchanged. "You also believe that the Nightmare Wizard will be the second Celestial Spirit Wizard."

"The moment a variable is created, it has already appeared and cannot be erased."

"It depends on which direction the development and changes are heading."

The Source Lord glanced at the direction of the God Lord and the Demon Lord, and said casually, "Forcibly changing the direction, left or right, often backfires."

"What consequences this will cause is unknown."

"Most importantly, those officials have seen it all. Everything we've done cannot be hidden."

"So what!" Lei Zhu sneered. "Although Star Lords are rare, in the hundreds of thousands of years I have existed, I have seen thirty-one, twenty-five of whom came from our original ancient star world, but none of them have ever truly stepped into that level."

"The forces behind you, which try to rise with the wind, will eventually crash to the ground, sink into the mud, or disappear altogether."

"Have we intervened less often again?" Lei Zhu looked up at the sky, beyond the chaotic aura of the Starry Sky Monument, and seemed to see a higher level, a majestic existence overlooking all realms.

"For them, there is no need to care if they fail to reach that level, as long as they do not exceed the power of equal specifications within the rules."

“The Celestial Spirit Wizard is the only wizard who has reached that level.” Lei Zhu’s eyes flashed with reminiscence, his expression complex before turning indifferent. “So he died. It was because he stepped into that level that we could use the rule-based magical artifacts. He was also doomed to die and could never come back. Even that area was sealed off from space and time, becoming the Celestial Spirit Sealing Ground.”

"We are on different levels. Our joys and sorrows, and our perspective on everything in the world, are completely different from theirs. Ants cannot understand humans, and we cannot understand them either."

"As for the remaining Star Wizards, you were once among the top five, so what's the big deal? Looking back, how many wizards have been stronger than you?"

Upon hearing this rare praise, the Source Master was initially somewhat uncomfortable and said, "I'm just afraid those esteemed gentlemen will think too highly of me."

Lei Zhu laughed, "Lightning, Divine Punishment, Cangming, and Demon Sea, our four families' witch races, do they not value those few lords? What real significance do they have, and how many long years have they valued them?"

"It's nothing more than leaving this world and heading to a distant, unknown other world. Don't you know in your heart whether you can come back, and how difficult it will be to return?"

Lei Zhu's expression turned serious, and his voice was deep. "Whether they are willing to come back is still unknown. We're taking a chance. If we succeed, everything will be fine; if we fail, we'll leave no trace."

"We are all losers, retreaters, and escapees," Lei Zhu said self-deprecatingly.

The Source Lord's expression was inscrutable. He gritted his teeth and said, "What's the use of saying these things now? Once the opportunity is missed, it's missed. So many people have died, generation after generation. We are still alive, still holding supreme power, and controlling countless top-tier resources."

"As long as you want, you can live forever—five hundred thousand years, one million years, ten million years."

“That’s you, not me.” Lei Zhu interrupted Yuan Zhu, his eyes flashing with lightning. “The best time for a Limit Apprentice to break through to Level 1 Wizard is within a hundred years; the best time to break through to Level 2 Wizard is within a thousand years; and the best time to break through to Level 3 Wizard is within three thousand years.”

"The best time to break through to the fourth level of wizard is within a million years. The shorter the time, the more accumulated experience, the better. I have only experienced 650,000 years so far, I still have hope."

"Are you crazy? Are you really going to embark on a path of no return?" The Source Lord's eyes widened, as if he were seeing the Thunder Lord in a new light. "The normal lifespan limit of a Level 3 Radiant Moon Wizard is 100,000 years. Only by breaking this limit can one be called a Peak Radiant Moon Wizard."

We are both at the end of our journey, having lived for over half a million years. Our accumulation has reached its limit; there is no further advancement. We only strive to maintain our current state and avoid regression.

"Theoretically, 500,000 years is the best time for a breakthrough. When the road ends, one should undergo a sublimation and transformation to obtain the status of a celestial being. You retreated at that point."

The Source didn't speak, but the meaning behind his words was quite clear.

Lei Zhu's expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "The result is nothing more than death, with no chance of resurrection."

The Source Lord gave the Thunder Lord a deep look. "You have such a naive side? Did the Heavenly Spirit Wizard give you a jolt?"

"No matter what, if you want to go crazy, that's your business. Just choose the next generation of decision-makers as soon as possible, so as not to break the tacit understanding that our four major Sun forces have built up over the years during the handover."

The Thunder Lord cannot deny it.

"It is necessary to make contact with the Nightmare Wizard and the Crimson Crystal Wizard in advance regarding their arrangements; if they are not valued or chosen by those individuals, things will be much simpler."

"If they are chosen to leave this world, we must consider whether they will return in the future; and what to do if they do return. We hope that these two are wise and willing to accept our goodwill and become a part of us."

The Source Master muttered, "Variables are really troublesome; it's best if they don't come back."

-

The chaotic mist shrouding the Starry Sky Monument was blown away by an invisible wind, revealing names, battle scenes, and figures. The gazes of the crowd climbed upwards until they reached the last few names at the end of the monument.

"Fiftieth place, Comoros Sacks"

The great weight that had been hanging over the hearts of the wizards belonging to the Black Tower, especially the Ancient Dragon Wizard, was finally lifted. His dragon eyes shone brightly, and he laughed heartily.

"It's a success! Comoros certainly didn't disappoint us. Star Wizard, you've made it into the top 100. This is an achievement that the Black Tower has never made before."

The Great Wizard of Heavenly Evil nodded in agreement, his eyes filled with joy. "Comoro's contributions and achievements deserve recognition. He has brought us great results, and the future of the Black Tower will be bright."

Looking at the names on the list, Qiuqiu smiled, her hands stroking her lower abdomen, and whispered in a voice only she could hear, "My child, do you see? Your father is so outstanding, and has made unprecedented achievements."

"Your birth will shelter him under his achievements and glory; you are fortunate, child."

"When we return to the Black Tower, your father should give you a name that will be remembered."

-

"Tenth place, the sorcerer Shunyi."

The wizarding community behind the wizard Shunyi also cheered.

This is a commendable ranking.

Although they failed to defeat the Sun Witches, their initial expectation was only to be in the top twenty.

It's not necessarily a bad thing that the wizard Shunyi was defeated by the wizard Yanmeng.

In their opinion, the Nightmare Wizard will compete for the final position of Star Wizard Lord, either first or second.

Moreover, it is powerful in every aspect, with no weaknesses.

Even against the Sun Witch Clan, they can be defeated.

-

"Fifth place, Cangming Wizard."

"Fourth place, Lightning Wizard."

"Third place, Demon Sea Wizard."

"Second place, the Divine Punishment Wizard."

The term belongs to the Sun Witch Clan and is fully revealed.

Aside from the wizarding communities of the four major Sun factions, there was a surge of negative emotions.

The other high-ranking wizards nodded in satisfaction, as this was among the cases ranked in their budget.

But then even bigger questions arose, and even a lack of understanding.

"How could this be? Where are the Crimson Crystal Wizard and the Nightmare Wizard? Why is the Divine Punishment Wizard in second place? Who should be first? And where should the other one be ranked?"

"The Nightmare Wizard defeated two Sun Wizards, and the Crimson Crystal Wizard also defeated the Lightning Wizard. Why is this happening? Could there be a problem with the Starry Sky Wizard Tablet?"

Those beings who can enter the spiritual consciousness body and watch the battle of the stars represent the high-end combat power of their respective worlds, at the very least at the Radiant Moon level.

The current situation would never have occurred in the past when the Council of Stars was in its current state.

All eyes were fixed on the mystery surrounding the last name.

The answer to all questions lies after that.

The fog surrounding the last name dissipated without the slightest hesitation.

"It's actually a Nightmare Wizard!"

A high-level being spoke, his face showing surprise.

"The Nightmare Wizard has truly broken with past conventions and surpassed the Sun Witch Clan. This is wonderful!"

Someone else muttered something under their breath, their words brimming with joy.

"The Nightmare Wizard won first place and became the first Star Wizard, the Star Wizard Lord of our realm."

"Is he the Nightmare Wizard? He truly deserves the title. He is too strong, unmatched in power, and it can only be him."

"Nightmare Wizard, this is wonderful, wonderful! You have created another miracle."

The appearance of Wang Ya's name on it sparked heated discussion.

Some were delighted, some celebrated, many were shocked, and quite a few were filled with malice and scheming.

However, at this moment, when Wang Ya's name appears in the column for the Lord of Star Witches, he has already gained renown throughout the heavens and is remembered by high-level extraordinary beings from all worlds.

It might even enter the history of wizarding.

In particular, it broke the shadow that had shrouded the Sun Witches for hundreds of thousands of years.

"Why has the name of the Crimson Crystal Wizard disappeared?"

Some observant people noticed this, pondered it, and frowned.

It reminded me of the final battle that I couldn't watch.

Both sides exerted their maximum strength.

The final outcome is unknown.

Since the Star Witch Lord is a Nightmare Wizard, then the Nightmare Wizard should have won.

But how could the Crimson Crystal Wizard's ranking not be among the top 100, completely disappearing from the list?

With such outstanding performance, a top-five finish is undoubtedly warranted.

Those who paid attention also discovered that the being that defeated the Divine Punishment Wizard, called the Illusion Wizard, also had no ranking.

Is there a connection between the two?

Beneath the splendor of this grand gathering of stars, undercurrents surged, and some unusual and bizarre phenomena emerged, causing many high-level beings to feel inexplicably alarmed.

Unable to obtain an answer, the public release of the Starry Sky Monument, with its rankings serving as the evidence for everything.

Therefore, we can only rely on Him.

The power of the Nightmare Wizard is also widely acknowledged, making the Star Wizard Lord a matter of course.

Although the sun never shines upon them, each battle has propelled Wang Ya's achievements and prestige throughout the myriad realms.

The Earth Core Wizard was unaware of the thoughts of so many high-level beings; his own thoughts were incredibly simple.

There are only two words: "respect the gods".

"Did you see that? The Lord of Star Witches is Lord Nightmare Wizard! It's Lord Nightmare Wizard!"

"I knew he would succeed. Lord Nightmare Wizard is the embodiment of miracles. What is there to say now about the Cosmic Wizard or the Heavenly Wizard? It's all bullshit, all fleeting clouds."

Among the wizards of the Frosty Lands, the Earth Core Wizard unusually jumped out and excitedly shouted at the other wizard factions.

"What is a genius wizard? What is the Crimson Child? What is the Lord of Hell? The Nightmare Wizard is the trendsetter of this era."

"This is the Star Witch Lord, the Star Witch Lord! Throughout the history of the Frost and Snow Lands, who has ever achieved such a feat!"

The Earth Core Wizard raised his chest, tilted his head back, his eyes filled with fanatical excitement, and pointed at the surrounding wizards, "You were born in the same era as Lord Nightmare Wizard, and to be able to witness this is the greatest honor of your lives." (End of Chapter)
