Wizard's Journey

Chapter 362 The Gate to the World (Part Six)

This aura...

The vision of the Dark Flame God from afar pierced through layers of locusts, through the incomparably furious Dark Flame God and Grin enveloped in black flames, and even ignored the Thousand-Eyed Crab that had escaped into the Gate of the World, before landing on the Ferocious Flame Giant.

So familiar, so intimate, so similar in scent...

Suddenly, the Dark Annihilation Flame God, who had been watching with a mocking expression as the Dark Flame God was provoked and humiliated by a lowly creature, froze in place. His memories seemed to travel through time and space, recalling the event that seemed to have happened only yesterday.

That was five hundred years ago in the Flame Soul World.

On that day, after the grand ceremony in which the Dark Annihilation Empire opened the portal to the Nest World, the Dark Annihilation Flame God quietly descended upon the Nest World out of a sudden impulse.

They slaughtered lower creatures, witnessed the growth of their people, and received the admiring gaze of their descendants.

Everything seemed so ordinary, but no one knew that a shameful and painful memory of endless years of suffering against the Dark Flame God was unfolding in this enslaved lair world!

It was a strange place where soul tides occurred, which the Dark Flame God accidentally discovered after killing a large number of creatures in the nest world.

Such a location means that, for a short period of time, the Dark Flame God can use these brief soul tides to randomly open a connection to a distant, unknown world.

I was incredibly surprised!

I'm incredibly excited!

The Dark Flame God quickly used the Mirror of Soul Tides to discover a strange world where souls were extremely wealthy, the rulers were called humans, and the power of the beings themselves was unbelievably weak.

By using the divine power of the Dark Flame God to grant him a means of exchange, the Dark Flame God quickly collected a batch of human souls from this world and bewitched a group of loyal followers.

The Dark Flame God learned that this world was called the Wizarding World, a world that even the Great Primordial Flame God had not discovered.

What a wonderful world!

The rulers of humanity clearly possess such vibrant and extraordinary souls, yet they not only cannot utilize the power of their souls, but their physical strength is also unbelievably weak.

This……

This is simply the paradise described in myths that countless swarms of people throughout history have longed for!

Driven by insatiable greed, the Dark Flame God relentlessly gathers the souls of humans from the Wizarding World within the Lair World, hoping to secretly use his divine power to open a world gate connecting the Wizarding World when he has enough.

At that time.

Once I conquer this wondrous and incredible wizarding world and devour a large number of strange and unique human souls, even the Primordial Fire God will...

Time slowly passed amidst the incessant, greedy, and excited wicked sneers.

One day, through the World Mirror formed by the tides of souls, the Dark Flame God suddenly discovered an incredible, fresh, and wondrous soul in the wizarding world.

His soul was so flawless, so pure, and at the same time possessed an alluring quality reminiscent of the sea!

No, it should be the curse of the sea, exuding a peculiar scent of the ocean.

It seems to be a curse emanating from the soul of some creature after its death, which in turn attracts the attention of other creatures sensitive to souls.

The Dark Flame God had never seen such a strange and special soul before. Driven by an intense desire to possess it, he quickly lured the soul into selling its promise to gain that insignificant power, and it agreed to sign the Supreme Flame Soul Contract with him.

"The excitement, joy, and exhilaration in my heart have no one to share with; this is truly a kind of loneliness. Once I conquer this wizarding world and absorb all the weak and foolish human souls, whether they are the Dark Ones, the Specters, the Dark Ones, or even the Primordial Locusts, none of them will be my match. I will become the God of Gods!"

Through this human with a strange soul, the Dark Flame God seemed to see the endless souls of the wizarding world behind him waiting for him to pluck them at will, and his own strength would grow to a level he himself could not believe.

"It all feels like a beautiful dream."

As for the contract with this lowly creature, all he had to give was a casual flick of his Flame Soul Power. He only needed to wait a hundred years to reap hundreds of times the reward.

The Dark Flame God used immense power to teleport the Supreme Flame Soul Contract through the Mirror of the World. Once the other party signed the contract, the soul would become his personal property.

But the result was...

Bang!

It felt like a beautiful dream had shattered.

The Mirror of the World, a priceless treasure, was shattered by this tiny, insignificant creature in the wizarding world, using meager brute force...

This insignificant human being!

He shattered the mirror of the world!

He deceived the great Dark Flame God!

He shattered all the dreams of the great Dark Flame God!

That tiny microorganism, even weaker than the slug warriors of the slug world, actually possessed the precious World Mirror that it had condensed through a chance soul tide...

It smashed!

Moreover, he even mocked himself as a "stupid alien creature"!

If the Dark Flame God's anger towards Grimm for attacking him is 10, which triggers the so-called divine wrath, then the Dark Flame God's anger towards Grimm has reached 10,000!

This is no longer anger, but hatred, hatred from the bottom of my heart, a hatred that will never be forgotten and will be etched into my bones.

"what……"

The Dark Flame God will never forget the humiliation hidden in his heart, never forget losing contact with the wizarding world that he once dreamed of, and never forget the promise he made.

His soul must be imprisoned forever inside the filthiest and most disgusting belly of a scoundrel, made to endure every imaginable pain, to revel in every torment I've orchestrated for him, to let him…

Humans in this evil, cunning, and treacherous wizarding world!

As if recalling the painful memories of yesterday, the Dark Flame God sensed the aura that belonged entirely to him on the elemental body of the Ferocious Flame Giant. Within the hundred-meter-long black flames, a pair of azure eyes with soul vision pierced through the Dark Flame God, through the layer of yellow sand protection, and through a layer of eerie soul protection, looking at the essence of Grin's soul.

This aura of soul...

That's right, it's the aura of a soul!

The Dark Flame God's mocking smile froze, and he let out a low roar like a primal beast. His two azure flame eyes suddenly burst into flames.

This soul, though it has undergone some changes, still possesses that allure, like the ocean...

That's right, there's no mistake, he's a human from the wizarding world.

The creature that emerged from the World Gate of the Nest World was the human from the Wizarding World who broke the World Mirror five hundred years ago, the creature that brought him endless humiliation and ridicule, the creature that appeared in his nightmares, that filthy and ugly human face that seemed to be eternally mocking him, that soul that the great Dark Flame God hated!

"what……"

The Dark Flame God has erupted!

Looking at that filthy, ugly human who had brought him endless humiliation and ridicule, and knowing that he was about to die so easily at the hands of the Dark Flame God, the Dark Flame God roared with endless hatred!

boom!

The black flames, over a hundred meters long, instantly distorted the space, causing widespread spatial fluctuations. Waves of elemental energy erupted, and beneath the distorted space, several of the thousand-meter-tall crimson nests in the Dark Emperor's capital collapsed instantly under the full force of the Dark Annihilation Flame God's fiery soul power.

Screams, wails, and roars filled the air, and the capital city of Ansheng instantly erupted in chaos.

The sudden turn of events even startled the Dark Flame God before the Gate of the World. The fiery soul power that was about to kill Grin paused slightly, then turned and roared angrily, "Dark Annihilation, you..."

"roar!"

However, what the Dark Flame God saw was almost a Dark Flame God who had completely fallen into madness.

His originally azure eyes gradually turned crimson. After thousands of locust warriors along the way were killed, a massive black flame hand that blotted out the sky slammed into the Dark Flame God.

"You're insane!"

The Dark Flame God roared in equal fury, and after a deafening explosion of a massive black flame, the two Flame Gods of the Locust World clashed briefly.

"This guy, his Flame Soul Power..."

In disbelief, the Dark Flame God's own fiery soul power gradually dissipated during the collision.

How could he have made so much progress over thousands of years without anyone noticing?

Amidst disbelief, shock, and doubt, Grin, controlled by the power of the Dark Flame God's soul, was blasted away and shot into the Gate of the World.

"None of your business!"

The Dark Flame God had completely gone mad, ignoring the Dark Flame God's questioning and instead plunging headlong into the world gate that connected to the Nest World.

This kind of world gate is different from the time-space gate of the lever of fate and the natural world rift.

Although the Gate of Time and Space did not involve a specific method of traversing a spatial tunnel, the lever of fate pried open a rift in time and space, but at the cost of a change in time.

The World Rift is the fundamental rule connecting the endless worlds. The two worlds ignored the effect of the Void Shadow and connected into one in a certain part.

While this kind of world gate is a wondrous ability to weaken the shadows of the void, it is mediated by a spatial tunnel.

At that moment, Green fell into the space tunnel.

"You can't escape! You can't escape! You can't escape..."

The Dark Flame God roared, its massive body wedged into the Gate of the World, trying to squeeze its way in with all its might. The Gate of the World was actually expanding little by little as it continuously released the power of its primordial flame soul.

After a while, all the Dark Flame Gods finally squeezed into the Gate of the World and disappeared without a trace.

The swarming locusts were already stunned by this series of changes. Even the thousand powerful beings at the Saint level brought out from the Gate of the World were nothing compared to the destruction and slaughter unintentionally caused by the two great Flame Gods in their anger.

Especially the Dark Annihilation Flame God.

This is the Dark Capital!

The sudden and unintentional wrath of the Dark Flame God, which caused the collapse of several Crimson Nests, will claim the lives of tens of thousands of weak locusts.

Among these locusts are some descendants of powerful and wealthy individuals.

After a brief pause, the numerous locusts surrounding the Gate of the World, led by some of the Locust Saints who roared through gritted teeth, surged into the Gate of the World like a tidal wave.
