Wizards pursue the truth

On the bridge across the starry sky, shrouded in a hazy, chaotic aura, the four people began to move violently, as if they had encountered something indescribably terrifying.

Wizard Kadi retreated several steps, his face filled with terror, and leaned against the railing.

Splash!

The black void water rippled, and the viscous liquid seemed to come alive, shooting out black tentacles that wrapped around his body.

His limbs were bound, his mouth and face were covered, and the terror in his eyes grew stronger.

It tried to struggle, but was eventually pulled down and completely swallowed up.

The wizard stumbled and looked around, his eyes scanning the surroundings, trying to find something.

However, in the eyes of outsiders, he was just like a madman, fearful and timid, and finally plunged headlong into the void of black water.

The blue-faced wizard fell unconscious, lying on the bridge, gradually disappearing into the floor below, leaving the Starry Sky Bridge in an unusual way.

The only one left was the Skywing Wizard. He closed his eyes, and although there was some fear on his face, he remained calm.

Gritting his teeth, he actually rushed across the Starry Sky Bridge, stepped to the end, and successfully reached the shore.

The creatures watching were stunned.

I watched this scene in disbelief.

"This is a being who has mastered three ancient great witchcrafts and comes from a powerful force. Even they failed, and only the Skywing Wizard succeeded."

"My God, are you kidding me? How are we supposed to cross the bridge?"

"What kind of test is this? Is it really reasonable and normal?"

The success rate was too low. The only person who advanced looked extremely strained and almost fell off the bridge.

One creature said pessimistically, "There's no hope. They all failed, so we have even less chance."

"Such a test is unreasonable."

For a moment, the voices of debate were so loud and jarring that they were almost unbearable.

On the other side of the bridge, the Sun Wizards remained indifferent and unmoved.

The bridge is there, and those who are able to cross it will always be able to.

Only the incompetent complain.

"From the Temple of the Gods, the Great Wizard of Yuan Valley, you do not include him in your training program."

The Grand Wizard of Juefa knew that the founder of the Temple of the Gods had a close relationship with the Grand Wizard of Yuan Gu.

This visit may well have been motivated by a desire to look after the younger generation of an old friend.

"Let's wait and see; it's too much to push." ​​Grand Wizard Motoya frowned slightly.

"The true son of the gods has not yet revealed his true colors; we must indeed wait." The Tide High Wizard is the one who knows the ins and outs of the major Sun-based forces in the core region best.

The four people who walked over were just losers.

The true prodigies representing those four major powers have not yet crossed the bridge.

"It's almost time. They don't have much time left. Besides, those who wanted to wait and see have already done so. The time to make a choice is now."

The young creature that the Black and White Wizards were watching had not yet crossed the bridge, and they were also very curious whether that creature could cross the bridge to the other side of the starry sky.

After all, there are very few young creatures that can suit his taste.

He had finally met one, and he quite hoped that she would come to him.

A heavy rain fell on the nameless wizard city, dark clouds covered the area, and a cold wind, sharp as a knife, blew away the dust covering the grass and trees in the fields.

The noble estate, located in the northern corner, was overgrown with weeds and seemed to have been neglected for a long time.

Pushing open the heavy iron door, Diana stared intently at the figure with its back to her.

Why should I believe you?

The yellow wizard's robes were hidden in the shadows, and when he turned around, his face was not clearly visible.

Diana's voice was calm as she spoke, "You can choose not to believe it, but the outcome is the upheaval of the Frostland, whether it's you or that lofty Frostland."

The yellow-robed wizard frowned slightly. "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"The Frostland has existed for millions of years, tens of millions of years. You have been with the Frostland for a long time, so of course you won't believe it."

"But what if it's a power on a higher level than yours?" Diana's clone hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

"impossible."

"You can choose not to believe me, but I've already said my piece." Diana waved her hands, her split hands gesturing. "Anyway, you can tell whether I'm lying or not."

"Instead of listening to you, I'd rather get the answer I want directly."

A cold glint flashed in the yellow-robed wizard's eyes. He stretched out his hand, and an invisible force suppressed Diana's split body, causing the particle energy within her to subside.

Grasp with the palm of your hand.

Diana split into two and flew toward him.

With a palm covering the cheek, a wealth of memories and information are read.

The yellow-robed wizard's expression changed drastically, and his eyes showed even more horror.

"It's actually true."

"No, it's also possible that something was tampered with."

The yellow-robed wizard narrowed his eyes and completely destroyed the corpse.

"It's like they deliberately let me see it, like they're reading my memories. What's their purpose?"

"However, we must be wary. Once that level of power is unleashed, just as he said, the Frostland will be completely overturned. It will affect everyone, not just a single being or a particular wizarding force."

The Brahma Wizard gritted his teeth, "This matter cannot be borne solely by the Eternal Sun's forces; all forces of Frost and Snow Heaven must come in and fight it."

His defeat in the Star Battle Tournament had already put him in a bad mood, and now it was even worse.

"Andersen, who exactly are you, and why have you appeared in the Frosty Land? The power of the rules is unimaginable. We absolutely cannot let you succeed in breaking that long-sealed seal."

"The sealed nodes in the online area are only a part. Many of them involve important nodes in the territories of the five major powers, which are connected to extremely deep ley lines and the underground world."

According to the deceased woman's memories, Andersen's strength was not great; he was only at the level of a Star Wizard.

Mastering the secret technique will allow you to unleash the true power of the rules once all the seals are broken.

The wizard, Brahma, said with a grim face, "Don't let me catch you by the tail, Andersen, or I will strangle you with my own hands."

To put it in perspective, Andersen possessed power at the level of the Radiant Moon. With the combined efforts of the five major powers in the Frostland, even the greatest secrets would vanish into thin air.

Thinking of this, the Brahma Saint Wizard relaxed a little. "Alone and lacking in strength, he dares to try to seize the power of the rules."

Whose origin is the power of the rules sealed within the Frosty Land?

When was this arrangement made?

Does it have to be before the history of the eternal blazing sun?

The internal history book contains very few records about the founders, and even fewer records about the Frostland and the power of the rules.

"Perhaps, if I remain forever under the blazing sun, I will be able to defeat Hans Christian Andersen."

A strange light flickered in the eyes of the Brahma Saint Wizard, and he murmured, "That is the power of the Sun level, a true rule. If I can get my hands on it, it can serve as a reference when I break through to the Sun level."

Even at the very least, it can become a legacy of the eternal blazing sun.

As history continues to unfold, it provides an opportunity to remain vibrant and even evolve further.

"If you lack strength, you will be guilty of possessing a treasure. No matter how great your past glory was, you have no support now. If your descendants are not strong enough, you can't blame me for taking it by force."

The Brahma Wizard narrowed his eyes, which held an unprecedented chill.

Enough to extinguish the scalding lava.

The moment Diana's clone was killed, it was in a wizard city under the control of the wizarding forces—the Battlegrounds—located in the western part of the Frostland.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed in the innermost room of the 'Landon' mansion, a female being with the exact same face as Diana's clone opened her eyes.

It was clearly the earliest fragment that Diana had kept as a backup plan.

Their strength is not great; they only possess the combat power of a formal wizard.

But it was the key to deceiving Andersen and gaining complete freedom.

"It seems that the relevant information has been sent out to specific people. We are waiting for chaos to break out in the Frostland. That will be the best time for Gray and me to escape."

Diana smiled slightly.

As a worst-case scenario, she had prepared in advance her own and Gray's spiritual power, as well as a spare physical body.

As a being who returned from ancient times, Hans Christian Andersen possessed extremely profound knowledge.

He was generous in passing on his knowledge to the two of them.

When executing the plan, considering their lack of strength, he brought out his inherited book—the "Book of Fantasy Eve".

Diana learned about the deeper nature of wizards from this.

Everything originates from idealism, or one could say consciousness.

The existence of consciousness represents the self, and represents the most basic form of existence.

Once consciousness is distorted, it is no longer the original self.

For a wizard, this is an extremely bad thing.

Consciousness, regardless of its stage, is constantly being maintained and never stops.

The illusory three-body system consists of spirit, consciousness, and soul, which complement each other.

To be precise, a strong spirit and a strong soul lead to a strong consciousness.

The creation of a true spirit by a formal wizard is a leap and sublimation that occurs when the consciousness becomes powerful enough.

During the apprenticeship, one practices meditation to expand the capacity of one's spiritual sea and strengthen the spiritual origin.

The enhancement of the soul's essence is more difficult than that of the spirit's essence, requiring specific resources and methods; it belongs to the Soul Wizard category and corresponds to the Soul series of meditation methods, witchcraft, and extraordinary knowledge.

Spirit and soul nourish consciousness; extraordinary spiritual power is so strong that it distorts reality. Under the specific guidance and control of consciousness, this distortion can be normalized, resulting in the transformation between objects, the transformation between objects and spirits, and so on.

According to Hans Christian Andersen's theory, as long as there is a spiritual origin and a soul origin, plus the wizard's own consciousness and a suitable and complete physical body, rebirth is possible. Unlike the conventional splitting of the body, this is a complete rebirth and is not subject to time restrictions. If one is killed at this stage, one can be completely resurrected in the future.

The more powerful a creature is, the more difficult it is to revive.

According to the information recorded in the [Book of Fantasy Eve], even at the level of the Rule of Day, this method can be used to resurrect and return, and it can avoid almost all curses, injuries, and even the mysterious "luck".

However, the lack of the essence of spirit and soul will prevent a powerful consciousness from surviving.

The slightest misstep could lead to utter destruction.

There are still many difficulties involved.

For example, solving the problem of physical adaptation.

To address the rooting of the spirit and soul in their essence and restore their vitality.

The solution is to address the decline in consciousness by maintaining a minimum level of "existence" rather than complete annihilation.

Let everything get moving, forming a complete "one," which is the self, transforming from death into new life, and returning once more.

Diana has found a solution.

A true spirit is the sublimation of consciousness, inherently incorporating elements of spiritual and soul power. It can amplify magical arts and distort aspects of reality to create unique true spirit characteristics.

The Book of Fantasy Eve contains a secret sorcery that anchors the True Spirit Node, differentiates the spirit, consciousness, and soul, and forms a temporary spiritual and soul origin.

The next step is to use special magic arrays, environments, and specific spell circuits to maintain the two fundamental sources for a long time, and then nourish the consciousness. Relying on time and years to refine them, the three are then completely integrated with the physical body.

Fortunately, neither she nor Gray were powerful enough to meet the conditions for resurrection.

"Grey, when the Frostlands descend into chaos, Andersen will be attacked by all the wizarding forces and unable to spare the time. We will seize this opportunity to commit suicide and abandon everything that others have created for us."

Diana's clone looked on with anticipation, "If we return to our most essential selves, even if our strength is limited by the power of our consciousness, as long as we get rid of Andersen, we can have a new future."

"We will indeed die, and resurrection is equivalent to rebirth. Our connection with the past Diana and Grey will be completely severed, and even Andersen will never be able to find us again."

Diana's clone was unaware that the information she transmitted through her memories contained a slight deviation.

While the general direction remains the same, the sources of information about Hans Christian Andersen have changed.

In the spectator space, the moment the Skywing Wizard stepped ashore, the leader of the Pantheon, one of the four major Sun forces, the 'Heavenly King Wizard', smiled slightly and turned to look at the figures beside him.

"Tianyi is lacking in many things, and it's really in a sorry state."

"."

The other figures remained silent, their faces darkening slightly.

There are no more advanced consciousnesses ahead of them; they have reached the pinnacle in every aspect.

"Congratulations, Heavenly King Wizard, you have double good news this time. Demon Sea Wizard, representing the Temple of Gods, has also managed to gain an advantage." The 'Guyuan Wizard' of Yuanshui Castle clapped his hands lightly with a forced smile.

The Blue Wizard's defeat not only humiliated him but also brought shame upon the Source Water Castle.

Although he was playing on behalf of himself.

However, with the Yuanshui Ancient Castle standing behind them, the impact cannot be reduced.

He could only hope that the wizard "Cangming" could prove him right.

The same thought crossed the minds of both the "Thunder Dragon Wizard" of Thunder City and the "White Order Wizard" of the other side of Judgment.

For losers, especially such pathetic losers, the determination to subject them to severe punishment is both a form of tempering and a test of character.

Without destruction, there can be no construction; it is essential to destroy before constructing.

"Congratulations to you all! I believe you have all benefited as well." The Heavenly King Wizard's lips curled into a smile.

In a corner, the group from Frost and Snow Land were also shocked by the defeat of the four members of the Sunrise Force.

"Look, that's Lord Nightmare Wizard! He's about to cross the bridge!" A wizard from the Hell Society pointed in a direction with excitement.

The battle-hardened wizard and the universal wizard straightened up and focused their gazes. (End of Chapter)
