Wizard's Journey

Chapter 1726 The Primal Black Witch King

Splash splash splash splash...

Cold and desolate, a fusion of life and death, the black river that should have existed in the deepest depths was drawn into the void, the River of the Underworld!

In the River of the Underworld, there is both the beauty of life and the spirits of the dead. Only the gentle light of awakening shines from that dazzling pearl. The dark shadow holding the "Scripture of Life and Death" is in the endless darkness, with a sinister, hoarse, cruel, and evil smile. What he sees when he looks at these alien rulers is not a life-or-death crisis, but a huge fortune!

Greed filled every cell of his body, and the desire to possess erupted from the deepest part of his soul.

Although they have lost their omnipotent soul, each of the Overlord's corpses is the ultimate material for synthesizing beasts from the mysteries of life and death.

Just as if he had a strong desire to collect, one of the things the Black Witch King loved most was to refine the enemies who had fallen at his hands into raw materials for the activated flesh and blood cells of synthetic beasts.

To be one's own enemy in life and one's own slave in death—what a cruel experience!

Moreover, these Overlord corpses often carry different rule attributes. Before becoming raw materials for synthetic beasts, they were also specimens for the Black Witch King to study the mysteries of rules. Each rule must have its unique characteristics. By studying these rules, it is easier to discover some little-known truths and mysteries.

Thus, greed had completely triumphed over fear. The Black Witch King was not intimidated by the horde of Overlords drawn by the Mirage Mother Shell. Instead, he saw it as a rare opportunity and, by taking advantage of the rules of this chaotic void, transformed it into his ideal slaughterhouse. With a cold laugh, the Dark Fangs raised their blades against the Overlords who had dared to trespass and hunt him down.

In normal times, even if the Black Witch King wanted to hunt down the Overlords, it would be an extremely difficult task. The Omnipotent Soul increases the life force of the Overlords, and if they escape into the deep illusion, pursuing them would inevitably result in the loss of the same Omnipotent Soul, which is often not worth the effort.

Unlike now.

These rulers actually came to their deaths willingly, and they weren't even subject to the suppression or restraint of the Wizarding World's rules!

"Hehehehe, the River of the Underworld is endless, and the cycle of life and death never ends. I too am infused with a deep, illusory power. How long can that illusory eye, which transcends the rules of destruction, seal me?"

At this moment, in the endless darkness, the Black Witch King was forced to change his form drastically, revealing an ugly and ferocious form that had never been shown before!

This……

This is actually the form of conjoined twins!

Conjoined twins are a rather rare congenital deformity in the wizarding world, occurring in about one in three million pregnancies. Most conjoined twins die during the embryonic stage, and only about one in two million are born alive.

The endless world is sometimes just that unfair; behind the complex rules lies the cruel side of the evolutionary and mutated process.

Compared to some people who lament their mediocre talents and envy those with better gifts and inheritances, the Black Witch King faced the fate of dying young from the moment he was born.

In that world where humanity had just evolved from a primitive state to a civilized one, the birth of these conjoined twins was seen as both an incarnation of a deity and an extreme misfortune.

Every day is a difficult struggle, every day is a full experience of the pain of living!

Is this the end?

Do not!

Those were years of breaking down superstitions, uncovering the mysteries of truth, believing that wisdom would eventually triumph over ignorance, and witnessing a knowledge explosion.

Mechanical knowledge and the mysteries of the human body gradually spread, giving rise to many mechanical wizards with incredible and earth-shattering power. Humanity no longer submits to nature, but tries to conquer it and change its rules.

These conjoined twins, through their abnormal growth and learning, demonstrated exceptional intelligence and gradually discovered ways to escape the nightmare of their disability.

Kill another person, seize the shared parts between the two, and start a new life!

No one knows what those years were like until one day, a primitive wizard who called himself the Black Wizard began to travel across the continent. Among the many mechanical holy marks wizards, he made profound and mysterious remarks that had never appeared on the continent before, and showed advanced dark knowledge that surpassed the continent's understanding, causing an unprecedented uproar.

As if a door to a new world had been opened, this wizard gradually rose to fame across the continent, was worshipped by many scholars, built his own wizard tower, and was hailed as the Black Wizard King.

He brought to the world one of the most primal mysteries of the wizarding world, the mystery of life and death. This opened a door to a completely new world, saving wizards from their passive position in the struggle for world domination. Yet, he also became an inescapable nightmare for the wizarding world, a contradictory wound that generations of wizards have tried to erase.

The Black Witch King is in conjoined form, while his other half, in a ferocious form, is clearly just an illusion, yet it seems to exist in a real way.

Compared to the Black Witch King's greed, cruelty, and madness, this female phantom, seemingly composed of the illusion of life and death, is full of love, wisdom, and compassion, but this love, wisdom, and compassion are only directed at the Black Witch King in her eyes.

"They will all go to the source of the Yellow Springs River to accompany you, in that cycle of life and death, on the edge of those higher-dimensional beings! To those higher-dimensional beings, we are just crude and worthless paintings, but as long as I live, the darkness on this painting will never cease!"

Splash splash splash splash...

The Light of Awakening became the only dazzling light in the River of the Underworld, protecting the rulers large and small. Without the support of the Eye of Destruction, the terror of this Black Witch King was truly astonishing.

Of course, a large part of the reason is that these rulers were merely invited to help.

Without direct conflict within the Rain Wizarding World, apart from the Mirage Realm Mother Shell, no ruler would want to sacrifice their Omnipotent Soul to fight the Black Wizard King to the death.

……

On the other side, the Mother Shell of the Mirage Realm was earnestly persuading the rulers present.

"You all know the ambitions of the wizarding world. Was the Dark Wizard King's actions truly just an accident? No, they will not stop their advance. They are born invaders. Every drop of their blood, every drop of their bone marrow, every cell is filled with greed. Have you all truly not seen the harassment that the Chaos World Cluster, the Mirage World Cluster, and the Dark World Cluster have suffered over the years?!"

The will of the mother-of-pearl in the Mirage of Desire emanated from that dazzling crack.

This is the oldest and most primitive mirage shell in the mirage world, also known as the Mother of All Mirages. Its solid spacetime barrier is beyond even the Black Witch King's reach. The illusory rules nurtured within it constitute one of the true illusory worlds. Even the Lord of Cangyan Mountain had to disguise himself as the Eye of Destruction to steal its awakening light.

However, despite the earnest advice of the Mother Shell of the Mirage Realm, none of the several rulers present responded.

"Lord of the Eye of Destruction, save me!"

Suddenly, a cry for help resounded from the distant, unknown void, causing an uproar among the crowd. An ancient mountain tortoise grumbled, "It's the Chaos World's Thunder Fruit Toad! It must have been a distress call from a few days ago. Isn't it responsible for outer perimeter security? What's going on?"

Just then, from the depths of the River of the Underworld, came the Black Witch King's loud laughter.

"Grimm's actually making his move at the slaughterhouse? How interesting! Let's clear out these alien scum first. If we can get the Wizard King's corpse, combined with what we've gathered here, we'll definitely be able to create a masterpiece of life and death that surpasses the pinnacle!"
