Wizards pursue the truth

The Lord's patience has reached its limit.

Variables should not exist.

The repeated impacts have now completely destroyed the prestige of the four major powers over the years.

People's hearts are no longer what they used to be; they fear power but do not cherish virtue.

Returning to the past would come at a price he could not afford.

"After the Gathering of Stars concludes, I will personally take action, wielding the Sword of Judgment."

The Demon Lord's handsome brows twitched, and his eyes widened. "Are you serious? A mere Star Wizard is not worthy of you carrying the Sword of Judgment. That is a forbidden artifact of the rules, a legacy that can easily destroy a world."

Its power is terrifying, but the price to pay is equally staggering.

It consumes massive amounts of energy and resources.

Even the forces of the Sun Gods need to accumulate power over a period of at least a century.

Furthermore, it cannot fully unleash the power of the rules-based prohibition devices.

After all, they are just users, not creators, and they don't have the power to control them.

Unless it is a matter of life and death or something with a significant impact, it will generally not be used.

The God Lord's eyes were more solemn than ever before, and his voice, instead of being sharp, was very deep, "Back then, the Heavenly Spirit Wizard was just a minor Star Wizard. You should know how serious the consequences were."

The Demon Lord fell silent.

"We can't give him time unless he becomes one of our own."

The God Lord added, "Of course it's not the real Sword of Judgment, but merely a tool created using projection, possessing a trace of the power of forbidden artifact rules."

"However, even the slightest bit of power can bring about a qualitative change, enough to completely annihilate it."

Lei Zhu crossed his arms, his eyes cold. "Of the four, only the Divine Punishment Wizard remains victorious. His target is not only the Nightmare Wizard, but also that female being, the wizard named 'Red Crystal'."

A cold smile appeared on the god's lips. "Don't worry, I can think of what you can think of. I have already prepared two wizard contracts. Don't say I didn't give these two a chance."

"The gazes of several high-ranking wizards have been fixed on this place." A subtle glint flashed in the Source Lord's eyes.

Don't even think about deceiving those beings. Any plan is useless to them; they are defenseless and unprepared unless you are strong enough to outmaneuver them.

"It's alright. The founder of our faction was also a Sun-Day Great Wizard, and he knew these other Sun-Day Great Wizards. In terms of close relationship, it's not much weaker. Besides, they're just some wizard seedlings. They won't care."

The deity said confidently, "I have participated in the Star Gathering many times. One batch of excellent wizard seeds after another have seen it all and have become indifferent to everything."

"Until they grow to their level, they won't care much, much less intervene, just as a lion wouldn't care about the crawling of ants."

"I won't actually make a move myself. I'll have a wizard of the same level as them take action, inscribing the 'Sword of Judgment' mark on them. Using themselves as a medium, they will unleash that trace of the power of the rules. No one will survive."

The god sneered, "In this way, I haven't broken any taboos or displeased the great wizards, since everything is within the rules."

"The wizarding seed they value should not have any defeats or weaknesses. It should be 'perfect'. If it becomes imperfect, it has long since become another life. Having lost most of their useless emotions over the long years, they will be even less concerned."

Lei Zhu and the others nodded in agreement.

"Imperfection means no value." The God Lord said with a deep look in his eyes, glancing at the Blood Battle Staircase space out of the corner of his eye. The Divine Punishment Wizard was still undefeated, and his perfect existence still had a chance.

Ninety-nine percent of lives cannot break free from the past and rebuild, grow stronger with each battle, and escape the confinement of their past selves.

This star-studded event is no exception.

The Lord has seen far too many examples.

"There's no such thing as a bloody battle or reincarnation. Seeking survival amidst death is all just sinking, sinking. The only way is to keep winning."

The deity remained expressionless, but a cold and murderous aura gradually emerged.

They will never put all their eggs in one basket, not even the wizard seeds of their own faction.

The deity anticipated that the wizard would lose due to divine punishment.

This loss is unpredictable and doesn't mean the same will happen at the next star-studded event.

What he needs to do is to set things right.

"I hope you two little things will be sensible and serve the four major Sun forces, offering your soul contracts. This is an opportunity you will never have again in thousands of years."

The rain pattered against the bluestone.

The ancient city, its light dimmed, was deserted and deathly silent. The medieval murals on the street walls, painted with dye, resembled overlapping images, constantly twisting and swirling, captivating the soul.

The golden wizard's robes appeared dull in this environment, his black hair fell loose, but his dark eyes maintained a constant light and brightness.

Like the first light of dawn illuminating the darkness, its powerful presence makes it impossible for any living thing to ignore.

Wang Ya lifted his right foot and took a step forward. His wet robes and hair felt heavy, as if a thousand mountains were pressing down on him, and his bones made cracking sounds, showing an astonishing level of stress.

The footprints formed by the indentation in the floor were as deep as half a meter.

Chi Chi!

The black particle energy shield rippled.

The next moment, the ancient city area thousands of meters behind them melted into nothingness, leaving behind a cratered cavity resembling charcoal crystals.

The rain still falls from the sky, and a human face, seemingly there yet nowhere, with a mocking sneer on its lips, looks down from above.

Wang Ya remained expressionless. Even though the rain was special, affecting not only the body but also the soul and consciousness, the particle energy shield could not completely resist it. As the accumulated moisture increased, everything became heavy until it could no longer bear the weight, launching an attack on the soul, flesh, cells, and transcendent essence.

call!

He exhaled, and the area several hundred meters in front of him froze into ice.

Blood flow to the lungs and other internal organs becomes increasingly slow.

His steps and leg movements were slow.

"It's no use. You've already been tainted by too much of my Dissolving Weak Water. You'll be crushed into a puddle of mud by the unlimited dissolving gravity, extinguishing all possibilities of life."

Mocking laughter echoed from all directions.

"How many steps did you take? Fifty, or a hundred? You probably can only manage ten more steps."

"I've killed far too many wizard seeds, but I've never seen a wizard seed as stupid as you before. You saw that I was dissolving the special properties of the Weak Water, yet you didn't even think about breaking through or resisting, and you actually continued on your way."

"Do you really think you can find my traces, grasp my existence? It's useless. No matter how long you walk, you will never see through this dissolving rain. From the moment you are touched by the rain, your fate of defeat is already sealed." (End of this chapter)
