Wizard's Journey

Chapter 2033 Abyss Battlefield (58)

The transformation of the Eternal Sky City's battle form is due to changes in its internal structure that cause changes in its external shape. This war miracle, created by countless wizards over a long period of time, is gradually revealing its unprecedentedly terrifying side.

call out!call out!

Three-star and four-star True Spirit Wizards flying out from the Eternal Sky City happened to discover a figureless demon ancestor, exuding surging demonic energy, bursting out from the gaps between the space fortress demon hunter wizard legions. Amidst his tyrannical laughter of "evil evil evil evil evil evil evil," he gradually approached the other side of the Eternal Sky City.

"kindness!?"

Upon seeing this, the four-star True Spirit Wizard reacted instinctively, but was stopped by Asura standing to the side.

The four-star True Spirit Wizard looked at Ashura with confusion, wondering why he was being stopped. Ashura, however, seemed unconcerned, looking at the lone, formless Demon Ancestor with a mocking expression, and said, "Just one. Even if he casts Abyss Summoning, what can he do? You know the guarding wizard legion, mechanical puppets, and war robots inside. Besides, this is the Eternal Sky City with about 40% of its combat mode activated. Is it here to seek its own death? At most, it can only bring back some intelligence. The intelligence we need to investigate now is equally important."

After saying this, Asura led the way to the coordinates of the battlefield where the Abyss Ancestor had previously fought.

Although the four-star True Spirit Wizard flew over, he kept looking back halfway, but what he saw next made him stop thinking about it and focus on flying towards the void ahead.

This formless demon ancestor, who exudes astonishing demonic energy at all times, broke through the massive defensive system set up by the demon hunter wizards at the spatial fortress ahead. After chasing for a distance, the demon hunter wizard legion responsible for intercepting him was pulled further and further away by him, so they stopped pursuing. At the same time, the wizard legion responsible for intercepting him, having obtained the relevant information in the Eternal Sky City, surged out!

Composed of the most elite demon hunters, they surged out of the Eternal Sky City like a swarm of bees, led by the most promising Stigmata Wizards selected before the battle. At the same time, two Prometheus Crystal Coffins also flew out of the Eternal Sky City with a "whoosh" and a "whoosh". Countless eggshell-like spheres sprayed out like spores. With a continuous "click" and "click" sound, these eggshells opened, and brand-new metal robots awoke one after another.

Not only ordinary combat robots, but also liquid robots and more advanced black Terminators and crystal demigods are mixed in!

Meanwhile, rapid reaction fighter squadrons and space fortress battle formations, along with the so-called secondary guns of the Eternal Sky City, launched an initial offensive against the invading enemy from the void.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...

A dazzling array of ultra-dense firepower intertwined, and when those so-called secondary cannons, ranging from 300 million to 1500 million degrees, swept over, the invading Demon Ancestor was naturally utterly shocked by this terrifying counterattack storm.

This is hardly a secondary gun. On other war platforms, the so-called secondary guns on Eternal Sky City pose an even greater threat than the main guns!

As for the densely packed war legions, the Demon Ancestor's tyrannical laughter almost stopped abruptly. After getting a preliminary feel for the defensive capabilities of this Eternal Sky City, he fled back without even turning his head.

Indeed, as the Three-Star True Spirit Wizard said, all this person who came alone to the Formless Demon Ancestor could do was obtain some information about the war in the Eternal Sky City.

……

On the battlefield pioneered by the One-Armed Holy Body Ancestor.

As one of the three strongest beings standing at the very top of the highest pyramid of the Abyss Civilization, he has encountered too many so-called strong beings, too many special life forms, and countless myths and legends throughout the long history, but in his eyes, the truly strong are few and far between!

Now we can add two more: the Wizard King and the World Tree before us.

hum...

The One-Armed Holy Ancestor slammed her fist into the Staff of Destiny, the power of infinite space and time dissipating most of the impact. More importantly, the World Tree possessed unparalleled power—it was a vast world! Thus, the World Tree, now transformed into a kind old woman, remained smiling, unchanged, and did not even falter, gazing at this most powerful life form she had ever seen besides the First Wizard King.

Although the World Tree was confident that in a one-on-one situation, as long as the battle continued for a long time, the opponent would inevitably be defeated, and its infinitely self-circulating world rules would surely wear the opponent down to death, it also showed that the World Tree did not have a good way to deal with this Abyss Ancestor and could not pose a strong and effective fatal threat.

The seven-colored light traversed the battlefield, seemingly without end. In the World Tree's hand, the Staff of Destiny was like a vine holding the rules of endless world dimensions, tall and composed.

"In this war, the Abyss's chances of victory are slim. Why have you pledged yourself to the wizards? By joining the Abyss and accepting demonic transformation, I humbly acknowledge you as the Fourth Progenitor!"

The One-Armed Holy Body Ancestor had been locked in a one-on-one battle with the World Tree for several hourglasses, but still had no results. Trying to bypass the opponent was also impossible, as the magic staff had already locked down the space-time around him!

This was a true opponent, and the One-Armed Holy Body Ancestor knew it clearly.

"It wasn't the Abyss that failed, it was you who failed. As for the progenitor... what meaning does it have for an existence like me?"

For World Tree, a trip, a rest, a meeting, a mission, or even a battle or conversation right now, are all part of her enjoyment of true freedom and the joy of being truly alive. Every subtle change brings her unprecedented novelty, rather than the extreme emotions that would arise from being caught up in the situation.

In a sense, she has transcended worldly concerns, obtained everything she wanted, and has no regrets.

"Hmph, my failure is equivalent to the abyss. Who doesn't know that the end of dimensional warfare is eternal despair, with no way out? It's all just a deceptive thing from this dimensional box."

After the One-Armed Holy Body Ancestor finished speaking, he continued on his way. He had faced the old woman from the World Tree countless times, but the further he went, the more desperate he became, and the more indifferent he became to everything.

After summarizing the information from various battlefields, the One-Armed Holy Body Ancestor could find no key to victory.

Undeniably, this attack inflicted enormous damage on the wizard legion, but in contrast, the damage to the Abyss Legion was far greater. While the legion here would not cripple the Abyss civilization as a whole, it would determine the historical direction of the Abyss civilization.

With the progenitor personally leading the expedition, the Abyss Demons fought fearlessly, determined to complete this sneak attack. Having just successfully assassinated the Thirteenth Iron-Blooded Empress, the Abyss Demons, their confidence shattered, engaged in fierce battle with the wizards. Neither side was willing to take a single step back, resulting in this epic war with unprecedented casualties.

But this war is far from over. The victors will destroy all the losers’ hopes of a comeback. The slaughter has not yet truly begun.

……

"Smash it, huff... cough cough cough cough."

The crystal coffin was completely shattered. The second-ring True Spirit Wizard shakily picked up a pipe, took a puff, and exhaled, coughing.

Having been freed from the protection of the crystal coffin, the skin of the second-ring True Spirit Wizard is aging at a visible rate after coming into contact with the endless world's rules and energy, shedding itself like a metabolism.

Not only the skin, but all the cells inside and out are like this. The second-ring True Spirit Wizard, having lost the thickness of life, is like a piece of paper, a rotten piece of paper, being torn apart by the rules of the endless world and dissolved into the river of time and history, leaving no trace whatsoever.

"Smoking is bad for your health right now."

Suddenly, Ashura whispered behind the second-ring True Spirit Wizard.

Seeing this once powerful and proud True Spirit Wizard, who had once controlled the resources of the wizarding world and stood proudly at the top of the pyramid, now shriveled up like a hunched and skinny monkey, unable to even hold his pipe steady, the four-star True Spirit Wizard felt as if his heart was being torn apart. He clenched his teeth, trying hard not to let the weakness in his heart show.

The second-ring True Spirit Wizard could no longer sense Ashura's life force. Only after hearing the voice did he slowly turn his head. His cloudy eyes, unable to see clearly, barely made out the person behind him. He tried to smile calmly but instead coughed dryly. He almost stopped breathing because of these few coughs. Ashura put a hand on his shoulder and injected a little bit of omnipotent soul to replenish him, which made him feel a little better.

"Don't waste the omnipotent soul, it's useless. This is fate, the punishment of the endless world. If you want to fight against it, you will inevitably suffer the punishment. No one can escape this calamity. The more you struggle, the more tragic the result will be."

The decaying eyelids glanced towards the direction of Eternal Sky City, and the old wizard said, "Like the previous sixth-ring True Spirit Wizard, he couldn't escape that calamity either, and it will probably be even more tragic, cough cough cough. The stronger one becomes, the closer one gets to the end, yet helplessly, one has no choice but to pursue even greater strength, why is that..."

The old wizard stopped looking at Ashura, picked up his pipe, took another deep drag, and said quietly, "It was Prometheus who sent you to explore the mysteries of the Abyss's progenitor, wasn't it? Go and do your tasks. This old man has been hypocritical his whole life, living for gold coins his whole life, and I don't want to pretend anymore before I die. I remember when I was a child, I clearly liked the smell of tobacco, but when my father asked me, I insisted that I didn't like it. As a result, I lived my whole life in a falsehood I wove for myself, cough cough cough cough..."
