Chapter 261 sequel

As the halo contracted and the figures inside disappeared, the stargate closed completely, and the scene fell into dead silence.

All that remains are Karl-Heinz's provocative gestures and sounds.

"It's him?"

Daniel's voice was dry, and his expression was complex.

"Karl?"

"I don't know if he's the Karl you're talking about," Lisa said coldly and in a stern voice.

"But he is definitely the murderer of Barn and Baden!"

"Karl was among the first to come from the Eastern Kingdom continent. He only came into contact with the wizarding world in his twenties, and arrived here in his forties. He's currently only in his sixties." Vulcan's face was grim.

"He has never been exposed to top-level witchcraft, nor has he received a good inheritance; he only has the cultivation level of the early stage of the first ring."

"The first ring?" Lisa scoffed.

"Even a third-ring wizard would need to cultivate bloodline magic to withstand being afflicted by my Soul Centipede."

"He's not dead; his physical body is already incredibly powerful!"

"You intervened?" Vulcan was taken aback, then shook his head:

"It seems someone is impersonating Karl and using this passage to travel to the Eastern Kingdom continent."

"For him, that's the only safe place."

Daniel opened his mouth.

He wanted to say that it probably wasn't a pretense, but considering the consequences of saying that, he shut his mouth.

If it's not a disguise, then there's something wrong with them.

"How vicious!"

Daniel said viciously:

"You've deceived our feelings!"

"Hmph!" Lisa could easily see through their thoughts, but she didn't intend to waste her time on it and asked directly:

"Can the stargate be reopened?"

"No." Vulcan shook his head.

"It can only be reopened after ten years, and even if people go there, I'm afraid... there's no way to do it."

The Eastern Kingdom continent is protected by the gods, and the power of wizards is suppressed in an extremely terrifying way.

Even the third-ring wizard didn't work.

"snort!"

Lisa snorted again, glancing at the two of them:

"You let the murderer go. Think carefully about how you're going to explain this to the Tower."

She flung her sleeves and strode out, her face extremely grim and her eyes filled with rage.

How dare you provoke me?

And my soul centipede!

Damn!

The Eastern Kingdom Continent.

Black Swamp.

As a burst of starlight emerged, a figure was thrown out from it. Before anyone could react, the figure was enveloped in lightning and shot into the sky, disappearing in a few flashes.

"What happened?"

"What happened?"

"It looks like someone's coming from the other side? But would any wizards still be willing to come here?"

"..."

The group of wizard apprentices looked at each other, unable to make sense of it for a long time, and finally had no choice but to disperse in all directions.

…………

Not long after.

Not far from a certain battlefield.

"Um!"

Karl let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground from mid-air, cold sweat pouring down his forehead as he forcibly activated the Divine Realm Fragment.

"Whoosh!"

The absolute rationality of the Divine Realm Fragment instantly suppressed the chaos caused by the pain, and consciousness returned to normal.

"I can't believe I fell for one of his attacks in such a short time. No wonder he's a third-ring wizard!"

Looking down at his chest, Karl felt a wave of fear wash over him.

"Luckily, the connection was severed, otherwise this thing would have definitely killed me. It was actually a third-tier construct."

At the location of his heart, a finger-sized, centipede-like creature was frantically tearing at his flesh.

Even with his physical body at the sixth level of the Saintly Demon Transformation, he couldn't withstand the creature's casual bites, and the toxins that penetrated deep into his nerves and consciousness were attacking his body.

This is simply due to its instinct.

If it were under someone's control, Karl probably wouldn't even have a chance to return to the fragments of the divine realm.

The instant the star gate closed, he felt a sudden pain in his chest, and then this thing appeared inside his body.

"call……"

With a long exhale, Karl's body swayed, transforming into a giant abyssal squid, while six undead souls flew out at the same time.

Wanfo Temple – Subduing the Dragon!

Layer upon layer of palm strikes blasted through the flesh towards the construct, with the undead souls and abyssal bloodlines following closely behind.

With his current cultivation level and strength, he can ensure that his power can be unleashed within an inch without harming his body.

"Bang!"

The finger-sized structure trembled upon impact, then stretched out its body, connecting with Karl's bloodline like spider silk.

The attack came.

"puff!"

Karl coughed up blood, his spirits instantly weakening. His eyes flickered, and he looked at his body with a helpless expression.

"Third-circle witchcraft with life sharing?"

If hit by this move, the construct will be injured, and he will also be injured.

With Karl's methods, he could kill the construct even at the cost of serious injury, but he would probably need to stay in bed for the next hundred years.

"The key issue is that this thing could turn on me at any time. What if it suddenly betrays me while I'm fighting someone else..."

"If it's not resolved, it will always be a problem."

Even if a third-order construct lacks sentience, it still possesses a certain 'program' and is by no means an inanimate object.

You can tell from their reactions just now.

When it lost its owner's control and was subjected to a sufficiently lethal attack, it chose to activate life sharing.

"It seems there's no way to take action in the short term."

After a moment's hesitation, Karl sighed helplessly.

Constructs are a relatively niche subject within wizarding disciplines, and even he doesn't know much about them.

Trying to solve this problem from this angle is like trying to climb to the heavens.

"Two methods!"

"One possibility is that my physical body becomes stronger, and I break through to the seventh level of the Saintly Demon Transformation, which would allow me to destroy it at the cost of minor injuries."

"Another way is to cultivate the third-circle sorcery life spring, so that I can continuously restore my life force, or lock down a part of my wind life, while it cannot, and can find a way to forcibly remove it."

Although it's said to be two types, it's actually just one.

That's brute force.

Moreover, only these two methods will not distract Karl and will allow him to proceed according to the original plan.

Name: Carl

Physical condition: 40.3

Mental Power: 25

Source quality: 21

Rank: Second-tier Holy Knight, Second-circle Wizard

Abyss Bloodline Fusion Rate: 61%

Carl glanced at his data panel and fell into deep thought.

"The source of life is third-circle sorcery. Even with the blessing of the fragments of the divine realm, it would still require at least thirty points of mental energy to successfully construct a spell model, and I..."

"Still a little short!"

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, the value in the Source Essence column suddenly disappeared, and then his mental strength increased to 27.1.

Based on past experience.

With a physique exceeding fifty, each point of advancement would require approximately twenty points of source essence. The key point is that even if the value is pushed above fifty, it doesn't necessarily mean that one's cultivation has reached the third rank; it merely increases the numerical value.

But spiritual practice is different.

The seventh level of the Holy Demon Transformation is a genuine Tier 3, and it is not weak among Tier 3 cultivators.

That's how it is.

It's better to focus on building up mental strength.

Mastering the third-circle sorcery, the Life Source, allows one to lock in health and recover. As long as one is not killed in one blow, there is a chance to recover. Furthermore, it can provide a huge amount of energy for the cultivation of the Holy Demon Transformation, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"First, find a place, then go into seclusion for a few years. Once you've resolved your troubles and greatly improved your strength, then you can come out of seclusion."

Karl paused for a moment, then said:

"We need to inform Mevia."
