Wizard's Journey

Chapter 120 Sweeping Across the Five Domains (Part 4)

After one hourglass period.

The ground was black, damp soil devoid of any signs of life. Two figures swiftly streaked across the sky, flying towards the boundless forest of stone pillars ahead.

Bang!

Green landed steadily on the top of a stone pillar at the edge of this unfamiliar forest of stone pillars. This stone pillar was relatively small, only seven or eight meters high and about two meters in diameter.

A scent of female hormones wafted around Grin, not the perfume of Venus, the goddess of love, but rather the rich, natural feminine aura emanating from Cressia's body, following her every move.

Beneath the pale mask, the bloodshot in his eyes had gradually faded. Green regained his calm and wise gaze and looked at Kretia behind him, saying indifferently, "You're still 700 points away from completing your contract. Sensing the apprentice wizard mark ripples in this unfamiliar area, first confirm which area this is and how many legendary powerhouses are here."

"Hmm." Kretia nodded excitedly, closing her eyes and sensing something using some method.

Previously, Kredia had sensed seven top-tier wizard apprentices scattered throughout District Twelve. Under Grimm's terrifying, overwhelming power, one died and six escaped the secret realm. This made Kredia almost unable to believe her eyes.

It wasn't until she felt her mark value skyrocketing that Kretia truly realized that perhaps... she had made the right bet.

The Black Tower wizard apprentice before me...

He will undoubtedly be the strongest person in this Holy Tower Qualifying Battle, sweeping away all the discovered wizard apprentices who are qualified to compete for the peak reward with unparalleled strength. He will become the nightmare of the entire secret realm. Only those legendary wizard apprentices can make this nightmare-level Black Tower wizard apprentice stop for a moment.

Right now, that's exactly what Green is doing!

Opening her eyes, Kredia pointed in two directions and said, "I sensed a wizard apprentice with a mark value of around 300 two kilometers away over there, and a wizard apprentice with a mark value of around 400 three kilometers away over there."

Green's body flew up with a "whoosh" and said in a deep voice, "Go to the side with more mark values."

A moment later, in the dim sky, Green's eyes, hidden beneath his pale mask, locked onto a figure looking at him from a stone pillar. He quickly flew to the top of another stone pillar a hundred meters away from the wizard apprentice and looked at the apprentice's forehead.

"This is District 15?" Green murmured in surprise.

"A wizard apprentice from District 12?! You wizard apprentices from District 12 actually dare to come to District 15 on your own initiative?" Suddenly, the wizard apprentice from District 15 stared at Kredia and Green in disbelief, his eyes filled with fear and pity as he looked at them.

Green frowned and said calmly, "Who is the second strongest person in your Fifteenth District?"

Pfft...

The wizarding apprentice from District 15 chuckled, sneering, "What second strongest? District 15 only has the strongest, Lord Zhongyin Hillwood. Decades ago, there was another one. Now, anyone who can escape Lord Zhongyin's clutches is considered a true powerhouse! You two ignorant wizarding apprentices from District 12 have no idea how terrifying Hillwood is, daring to come to District 15 to die..."

Unaware of the situation, Kredia's confidence in Grimm plummeted as she listened to the description from the Fifteenth District wizard apprentice. She whispered, "From what he said, this Bell Dominator should be stronger than a legendary wizard apprentice. Perhaps we should go to another area first..."

Green shook his head and said calmly, "No need. Hillwoods was indeed very strong, but he has already fallen in District Twelve."

Having said that, Green pushed off with his feet and flew into the sky, bursting forth with endless blazing flames as he charged toward the wizard apprentice, whose face had turned deathly pale the instant he sensed Green's power.

The wizard apprentice had originally planned to use some bloodline magic, but it seemed that due to Hillwood's pressure, every wizard apprentice in District 15 was clutching their life-saving badge tightly in their hands. After realizing that Green was no match for him, the wizard apprentice crushed the badge without hesitation.

Space distorted, and the wizard apprentice vanished from the secret realm.

Green stopped mid-air, turned to look at Kretia, and calmly said, "Next target."

…………

Three hourglasses later.

"Gravity!" Grimm roared in the sky, and a three-meter-tall lava giant was pulled into the sky by Grimm. Without the Hydra Greatsword, fire elemental magic had little effect on this lava giant. Grimm had no choice but to use brute force to repeatedly use repulsive and gravitational forces to smash the lava giant to pieces.

The lava giant, whose entire body was made of rocks engulfed in crimson flames, roared in shock and anger as it was sucked into the sky by Grimm. With a wave of its hand, it hurled a flaming rock at him.

"Repulsive force!"

Green didn't care about the opponent's counterattack at all. He had already experienced all of the opponent's methods before. The highest attack angle was only about 170 degrees. Although he was already ranked second in the top ten masters of District Twelve, second only to the legendary wizard apprentice, it was nothing more than that to Green, who was able to completely suppress Hillwoods.

boom!

Along with the flaming rocks he had thrown, the lava giant crashed to the ground for the seventh time, finally letting out a mournful howl as the flames on his body began to dim.

Beneath the pale mask, Green stopped moving.

If this lava giant still can't be destroyed, Grimm might have to summon the Greedy Flame Giant and the Blood Fear Doll. As for the Explosive Flame Spell, this level of wizard apprentice isn't at a level where Grimm would expend a huge amount of magic power, mental energy, and physical strength to use a spell that unleashes a powerful burst of magic.

Bang!

Green's feet touched the ground, and the slightly damp soil was steamed by the remains of the lava giant. Feeling the small increase in points on the mark on his forehead, Green glanced at the lava giant's remains and said indifferently, "So, it's gone."

He casually kicked the lava giant's body, and the hollow shell inside collapsed.

The wizarding apprentice from District 15 who had already left the secret realm was one of the few from District 15 who managed to escape from Hillwood's clutches, and his strength was considerable. His combination spell of merging his body into the lava giant reminded Green of the Desperate Thief from his rookie trials.

As for the Ghost Thief, it seems that due to his talent, his ability to integrate with the wizard is far superior to that of the wizard apprentice.

Of course, this does not mean that his strength is also greater than that of the wizard apprentice.

Shaking his head indifferently, Green turned to Kredia, who was looking excited in the distance, and said, "Next."

"Hmm, right, next time I'll keep an eye out for any magical artifacts that can unleash my power," Grimm thought to himself.

Kredia was already prepared and pointed in a direction, saying, "There's a wizard apprentice with a mark value of 300 about three thousand meters over there."

…………

Two hourglasses later.

More than thirty wizard apprentices were divided into two groups and fought fiercely. This was something that was rarely seen in the usual Dark Wizard Holy Tower qualification battles, but it really happened in District 15, a region that was absolutely suppressed by Hillwoods.

One group of wizard apprentices numbered only about ten, and they all seemed to be at the potential level of wizard apprentices on the Twelfth District Wizard Academy's list. The other group had more than twenty people, with three of the leading wizard apprentices already at the level of the top ten masters. The remaining wizard apprentices were those with the highest attack power of 70 to 80, that is, those wizard apprentices who learned step by step from the wizarding books to reach the peak.

These wizarding apprentices were those who studied witchcraft (power), not those who studied wizarding knowledge.

At the same time, because they learn public elemental knowledge, most of the witchcraft of these wizard apprentices is similar and nothing special.

The truly top-tier, legendary wizarding apprentices can only achieve this through unique knowledge and insights, creating their own distinctive magic suited to their own needs, under certain circumstances. (Advanced Wizarding Instruction)

The same applies after becoming a formal wizard!

The most powerful wizarding knowledge can only be discovered through one's own learning, and then used to create unique spells perfectly suited to one's own characteristics. This is the most powerful knowledge for a wizard.

Both groups of wizard apprentices suffered losses, and the battle was deadlocked, with no clear victor for the time being. Elemental energy surged everywhere, and occasionally, several bloodline wizards would unleash their unique abilities.

call out!call out!

Two figures landed on a stone platform. Under his pale mask, Grimm surveyed the wizard apprentices, assessed their general strength, and then said to Kredia, "There aren't any truly strong individuals, and their magic power is running low, but there are quite a few of them. You can lend a hand."

As he spoke, Grimm muttered an incantation, and a ball of pitch-black flame and a drop of blood appeared out of nowhere. Then, the black flame and the eerie blood began to pulsate wildly, and a four-meter-tall giant of greed and flame and a blood-stained doll the size of an infant appeared.

Boom! Boom!

Grimm and the Flame Giant crashed to the edge of the battlefield, ignoring the angry shouts and incredulous cries of the wizard apprentices fighting on both sides, and frantically attacked all the wizard apprentices in front of them. There were no enemies in front of Grimm, except for the three wizard apprentices who were among the top ten masters, who allowed Grimm to take a few more hits.

The Blood Terror Doll, clutching the Radiation Stone, flew incredibly fast through the sky. Occasionally, it would be struck by magic, but a flash of blood would instantly make it reappear unharmed. The Radiation Stone emitted invisible waves of light...

Kredia looked at Green's unstoppable, invincible rampage on the ground, like a tiger among sheep, and opened her mouth but then pursed it slightly. She could only turn her gaze to the weak wizard apprentices who were scattering and fleeing. One by one, pink scorpions crawled out of their clothes...

After a quarter hourglass.

On the shattered, rutted ground, Grimm, slightly out of breath, waved his hand, and the Gluttonous Giant and the Bloodthirsty Doll vanished. Holding a magic stone in his other hand to replenish his magic, he slowly looked at Kredia: "Next."

…………

After sweeping through District 15 with unstoppable force for a full day and a half, Grimm and Kredia flew to the edge of the Stone Pillar Forest, leaving behind this "desolate and decaying" region that had been permeated by Grimm's various terrifying legends.
