Wizard's Journey

Chapter 1185 The Coffin Lifter!

"Then why haven't you left the dimensional esophagus yet?"

Green's question interrupted the skeleton monster, but before the skeleton monster could get angry, the paper figure next to it answered.

"Because we didn't have the key to open the Coffin of Hope, that special life form later discovered that if four truly top-tier experts could work together using the array inscribed on it, they could forcefully open the Coffin of Hope for a short time. However, unfortunately, the four coffin ascenders here are far from powerful enough to open the Coffin of Hope and obtain the Time Capsule."

The one who lifts the coffin!

Green finally understood what the paper figure meant when it asked him if he was ready.

If the four coffin lifters are not strong enough, they will have to wait for a stronger person to replace the weaker one, thus gaining the opportunity to open the Coffin of Hope.

Therefore, after the large number of powerful individuals gathered here were filtered out by the rules of the dimensional gaps, the remaining truly powerful individuals had the opportunity to challenge the Coffin Ascender and replace him!

As the coffin-raisers grow stronger, perhaps one day they will open the coffin.

As one of the legendary places capable of escaping the dimensional esophagus, this place will inevitably attract powerful individuals who, upon hearing the news, are about to be digested by the dimensional esophagus and attempt to break free.

And the key to this Coffin of Hope, Green was almost certain, was the Scepter of Hope in his own hands!

The Lord of Hope hopes that his descendants will come to the Dimensional Food Path to obtain his original inheritance, and then leave in the Time Capsule.

Fearing that the Time Capsule might be taken away from the Dimensional Esophagus by others, he even forged the Coffin of Hope, merging the Time Capsule with it, and chose to exile his own corpse...

correct!

Green suddenly realized that if he used the Scepter of Hope to open the Coffin of Hope, the Time Capsule would likely become his personal possession as a legacy, and he would take it away from the dangerous dimensional esophagus immediately.

Judging from the faint suction force emanating from the Scepter of Hope, I must not take it out here, otherwise it will inevitably attract some strange phenomena. It is almost certain that a terrifying battle for the Scepter of Hope will break out here in an instant.

Green is not a Coffin Ascender now, so he is at odds with four Coffin Ascenders, at least the two terrifying life forms in front of him!

If Green succeeds in the challenge in the future, given that the Time Capsule can only be used once in a lifetime, it will be useless to Green after returning to the real world, but it can be passed down to his three disciples as a legacy.

However, he still became a mortal enemy along with the other three coffin lifters!

hiss……

It seems that my only chance is through the traditional coffin-raising ceremony here.

It's likely that even the Lord of Hope didn't anticipate that the terrifying life forms trapped in the dimensional esophagus would break through its elaborate design and devise these countermeasures in order to escape.

boom……

Just then, on the distant horizon of the not-so-distant Bone Land, a wave of energy that terrified Grimm shot into the sky. Startled, Grimm's three-colored eyes twitched as he looked over, and the residual power he felt from the outer layer alone was probably close to a million degrees.

A coffin lifter?

However, what terrified Green even more was that within those terrifying energy ripples, there was another powerful figure constantly fighting; it must be the challenger.

"Oh? A decent fellow has arrived, but it's a pity he chose to challenge the Demon Doll, courting death."

The paper figure also looked over, murmuring something.

Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble...

Leaving aside the powerful beings hidden in the distance by the energy fluctuations beneath the Grimm's Truth, in another direction, an ice giant, its feet planted on the ground of white bones, appeared to have been greatly affected by the dimensional gap phenomenon, with large patches of broken and fragmented marks on its body. With the earth rumbling and shaking, it walked step by step towards us.

"Which of you is the one who lifts the coffin?"

Above the ice giant's head, a pure white, holy flower spread its will, questioning Grimm, the paper doll, and the skeletal monster.

The skeletal monster glanced at the white flower and the ice giant beneath it, then sneered disdainfully from its mouth, which was billowing with deathly black smoke: "You barely survived the dimensional rift. You have no chance. Don't come here to die."

However, the white holy flower coughed and gasped, saying in a low voice, "There is no chance, and this is my last chance. I no longer have time to explore the esophagus to other settlements. Compared to the previous ones, the Coffin of Hope Time Capsule is closer to reality."

According to Green's perception, the soul fire of the white flower has reached its final stage and will likely wither and dissipate completely in a few hundred years.

Judging from the traces of time and vicissitudes on its soul, it has probably existed for at least ten eras. Such an ancient creature may be older than most true spirit wizards in the wizarding world, but it is also closer to the end of its life.

Such a long life, which seems almost infinite to lower life forms, has now come to an end and is about to be consumed by the endless world.

"Why……"

A barely perceptible sigh.

Throughout the brutal experience of the Civilization War, and even earlier, the constant heavy injuries requiring powerful repairs, the exhaustion following the self-sealing spell, the need for magic potions to restore strength, the activation of the Nightmare Body, soul damage, and even the consumption of the Great Thousand Worlds Soul in Grimm's hands, all made Grimm clearly aware that his Holy Mark Soul was not inexhaustible.

In fact, Grimm's Soul of the Mark seems to be slightly inferior to many other wizards.

The chance to witness a world lord perish as his soul fire dies is extremely rare. Most world lords die in battle during their life journey or reach the level of a ruler. However, in this dimensional food channel, the digestive ground of endless worlds, the proportion of such beings is far greater than in the material world.

Here, even those who survive are truly the strongest.

"Alright, then let me send you back to the endless world to digest your origin."

As the skeletal monster spoke, it seemed to transcend the limitations of time and space, appearing as a series of black shadows.

They constantly traversed space and engaged in a fierce battle with the iceberg giant, maintaining absolute dominance.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp! The Black Wind Monster has come to challenge the Coffin Ascender!"

In the distance, a black whirlwind swept over, accompanied by a piercing laugh amidst its fluctuations of will. It was a being even stronger than the Ice Giant. The paper figure glanced at it, then let out a cold laugh, and with a flick of its hand, a thread made of white paper pierced through the heavens and earth, instantly penetrating the Black Wind Monster.

However, the Black Wind Monster continued to emit a sharp, piercing laugh, showing no change after being pierced by the white paper. The paper figure let out a low, cold laugh: "House of Cards."

Splash splash splash splash...

The paper figures filled the sky, forming a giant paper ball, layer upon layer, seemingly endless. Then, the paper figures vanished into thin air, followed by earth-shattering fluctuations emanating from the card room.

call out!

A half-eagle, half-human monster, over ten meters tall, appeared naked before Green, its wings adorned with golden feathers, and a sharp aura rushed towards him.

"The coffin lifter?"

The sharp eagle eyes stared at Green. If it were in the past, Green would have summoned the Great Thousand World Black Ball without saying a word when he encountered such a powerful creature.

However, Green quickly said, "They're challenging the Coffin Riser over there. I just happened to be passing by and watching. After all, I still have plenty of souls, so there's no need to take any risks now."

After hearing that Grimm was not the Coffin Raiser, the half-human, half-eagle monster lost all interest in him and simply waited in place.
