Wizard's Journey

Chapter 477 Willing to Deceive

call out!

Solangm drew a blue lightsaber from his left pupil. His enormous bat wings unfurled, and an eerie, ominous aura erupted, blurring his figure amidst the black mist. He roared, "Retreat!"

If Grimm dies, the monsters summoned by the abyss will dissipate, and the other four wizards present will also be in grave danger.

The azure lightsaber confronted the towering pillar of light, attempting to stop it.

However, almost in an instant, the azure lightsaber shattered upon contact, disintegrating into specks of light. Solangm was pierced through without any resistance by this fifty-meter-long dark red Flame Soul lightsaber, letting out a heart-wrenching scream before turning into countless fragments.

On the other side, almost simultaneously, the rolling power of ice crystals erupted, and the frost formed a small vortex. The twenty-meter-tall ice crystal phoenix cried out and with a "bang" turned into a rain of ice that shot towards the area around the Clear Sky Giant Sword.

"Ice Marrow Crystallization, Ice Age Sealing Technique!"

The ice crystal on her forehead shattered along with the ice phoenix, and the immense power of ice condensed a layer of frost into Millie's silver-white hair. Her wizard robes were as beautiful as iridescent ice crystals, and her eyes, hidden beneath her hair, were fixed on the invincible giant sword. The crackling sound of ice flowers bursting was incessant.

In an instant, the icy rain, centered on the Flame Soul Greatsword, transformed into thousands of ice snakes, swirling and surging incessantly, attempting to engulf and freeze the Locust Saint.

However, similarly, once the countless ice snakes approached within ten meters of the Flame Soul Greatsword, they were easily shattered by the Flame Soul Sword Intent, and could not form any obstacle at all.

In a panic, Millie had no choice but to abandon the rescue and weakly looked at Green from afar.

Such power, coupled with a desperate and reckless attack, is simply beyond the resistance of ordinary level-one creatures.

"Hmph, Wiki Active Rebirth Grand Spell!"

To Solem and Millie's disbelief, Wiki laughed and unleashed his unique and ingenious witchcraft. Although the two knew that this wizard was from the same class of the Seven Rings Holy Tower Wizarding Academy, they had no idea of ​​the specifics and thought he was just a wizard with great expertise in body-training witchcraft.

However, even Green and Kredia, who knew some of the details, were shocked by the sudden change.

Boom...

A shadow over a hundred meters long suddenly emerged from the ground, and a giant stone hand, over ten meters long, reached out to grab the locust saint, its enormous size creating waves.

This is actually the hundred-meter-tall statue that collapsed in front of the Temple of Dark Annihilation decades ago, when the former Demon Hunter Wizards had just embarked on their expedition to the Flame Soul World!

At this moment, through decades of magical infusion, Wiki actually managed to achieve a brief resurrection of this enormous statue!

For the first time, the Flame Soul Greatsword began to falter.

As the locust saint continued to charge towards Grin, the blade of his Flame Soul Greatsword flipped and slashed at the giant hand reaching out from the tall statue, easily severing it.

The blade flipped once, and the Locust Saint continued its unstoppable charge towards Grin, with ripples spreading outwards.

Ultimately, this towering stone giant was nothing more than an empty shell to truly advanced beings, and was not worth mentioning.

Wiki looked regretful but helpless, and stepped away from Green.

Beneath the surface of truth, Green's eyes gleamed with a dark light. He remained remarkably calm even in this critical moment, a testament to the long-standing trials of life and death faced by body-training wizards.

On one hand, he summoned tens of thousands of abyssal monsters around him to come and protect him, and on the other hand, he made Xiao Ba turn into a blur and continue to fly away at an astonishing speed. Finally, he raised the Ram Horned Skull Magic Staff high, and under the surge of magic power, a dark red ball of light formed between the two ram horns. It had been fully gathered and stabilized.

With a "poof" sound.

Green underwent his first level of Wild Transformation. Dark scales emerged from beneath his skin, and his wild body resembled that of a cheetah. With a single push off the abyssal bird beneath him, he leaped high into the air, and with a whooshing sound, the Ram Horned Skull Magic Staff pointed towards the ground.

"Hmm? This pink mist..."

Beneath the mask of truth, Grimm's fiery eyes glanced to the side, where Kretia was using ancient black magic to gather charm and reduce the enemy's damage.

Surprisingly, the Flame Soul Greatsword, which neither Soram, Millie, nor Wiki could overcome, was actually shrunk somewhat under the influence of this pink mist.

"That's all I can do for you."

Cretia shouted from afar, immediately placing herself in the safest possible location.

Squeak!

With a piercing scream, the giant abyss bird that Green had been riding all the way was pierced through by the Flame Soul Greatsword and torn into countless fragments. There was no longer any obstacle between Green and this Level 3 Locust Saint!

The imposing aura of the Flame Soul Greatsword, even from dozens of meters away, caused Green to feel a stinging sensation on his skin. The surrounding air began to distort and compress towards him, a sign that he was completely locked onto by the opponent.

"Explosive Flame!"

The dark red orb between the two ram horns of the Ram Horned Skull Magic Staff transformed into a pillar of light, hurtling down upon the Flame Soul Greatsword.

boom!

With a buzzing sound and the sound of explosions in circles of flames, the tip of the Flame Soul Sword emerged.

The fire waves were dispersed by the giant sword, which seemed to be a matter of course. Grimm sensed that Xiao Ba had not yet flown to the outside of the protective circle of the abyssal monsters to provide support. Facing the Flame Soul Giant Sword that was about to completely shatter him, he did not panic at all and still did not choose to escape.

With nimble and graceful fingers, she parted the dimensional gap and took out a small green bottle and a dark red cat's eye stone.

The green vial was a consumable item called the Sound of Sorapp, which Grimm purchased in the Wizarding World before embarking on his Demon Hunting Expedition for 25 Wizard Essences per vial. It was a fairly effective hallucinogenic potion.

The dark red cat's eye stone is the Hell Claw Cat's Eye Stone, which Grimm refined using the Blood of the Filthy Eye obtained from the Azure Rock Giant Mountain as raw material and the Little Eight Mystic Method. It has the effect of connecting the Azure Rock Giant Mountain with a thousand portions of Blood of the Filthy Eye to create a deceptive illusion!

The moment the small green vial containing the sound of Sorap was broken by Grimm, a melody resembling grand music began to linger around the fingertips of Grimm's left hand.

The melody, like leaping sound waves, surged toward the locust saint.

The dark red Hell Claw Cat's Eye Stone vanished from Grimm's hand the instant it was activated, as if it had never existed in the world, and everything before was just an illusion.

After that, he dared not linger for a moment. Green changed his spatial coordinates and in the next instant, he appeared next to Xiao Ba, thousands of meters away.

"Young master, another horde of locust-like people is attacking from over there."

Green looked in the direction Xiao Ba was pointing and saw over a hundred level-two locusts rushing towards them, led by a level-three locust. However, they were still far away, and this level-three locust was not even in the same league as the level-three locust who had just forced him to flee.

"Leaving them aside for now, what are the chances that the Hell Claw Cat's Eye Stone will trap him in the illusion of the Azure Rock Mountain?"

Beside Xiao Ba, tens of thousands of abyssal monsters, summoned by the will of a wizard, roared and surged toward the Locust Saint, who was surrounded by endless abyssal monsters a thousand meters away.

Unless Green is killed immediately, he will have no chance against so many abyssal monsters.

This is the terrifying nature of the Ancient Demons without Forms that the ancient wizarding world faced. Each Ancient Demon without Forms summoned a legion of Abyss servants that was comparable to a Saint Mark Wizard!

"I don't know. Creatures of this level are just consumable items made from a hundred portions of low-concentration Blood of the Filthy Eye. Even a 10% chance of success would be considered good, after all... uh?"

Xiao Ba was only halfway through his sentence when a scene unfolded that astonished all the wizards present.

The locust saint actually stopped, his face full of relaxed bliss, as if he had been deceived by his own illusion.

However, he did not truly become immersed in it. After suddenly opening his eyes again and killing some abyssal creatures that approached, he looked at the war-torn, hellish world of Flame Souls and the surrounding layers of abyssal monsters, and with a sigh, he chose to close his eyes again.

"He... he actually chose to willingly degenerate himself."

Xiao Ba said in surprise, and Green also looked incredulous.

The wizard's wisdom was truly incomprehensible. Why would this locust-man saint choose to deceive himself when he clearly knew that it was an illusory world? Was it due to a weak will or despair about the future?

hum...

As if connected to some strange space, after a spatial vortex fluctuation, the Locust Saint was sucked into the vortex and disappeared.
