Chapter 1103 This is my fake forging!
Above the Milky Way, the Macedonian witch, sitting on her cabbage-shaped lotus boat, suddenly opened her eyes and curled her lips into a smile.
“The time has come. First, four emperors stood side by side, then seven suns rose up. The people of the Elven Empire suffered terribly. The elves’ life force was cut off. If the elves wanted to live, the Tree of Perfection had to die, and either the Void Emperor or the Tree of All Things had to collapse simultaneously. Edgar, how great are the sins of the world? Can you bear the burden alone? I told you long ago, your path is not right.”
“Issue my decree from the Heavenly Realm—if all living beings want to live, the Tree of Perfection must fall. The Tree of All Things is full of sins. My Rain Realm gathers the life force of all living beings, and will reverse this life force, transforming it into thunder to cut down the Tree of Perfection.”
The sixteen rain-summoners on the cabbage-shaped boat, all at the second level of magic pressure, opened their eyes, no longer closing them in contemplation.
Because the unification of the Three Realms requires the reorganization of the principles of heaven and earth, their magical pressure growth rate is not fast. Furthermore, the earth contains the Tree of All Things, and there is also the underground world created by the goddess Rose. In fact, the massive water cycle is not yet fully established, so their magical pressure is currently barely equivalent to the second ring.
So far, no one has yet achieved illusory forging, but these sixteen rain-summoners are all steadily growing, helping the Macedonian witch reorganize the principles of the plane.
The Macedonian witch wields the Heavenly Cabbage, which automatically disintegrates into cabbage armor and a cabbage sword. Lightning crackles on the cabbage sword’s stem. The Macedonian witch raises the cabbage sword, and as she walks from the Milky Way to the earth, ancient trees in the forest rise one by one, then unleash a life-piercing attack on her.
A barrage of tree spears attacks the Macedonian witch.
The Macedonian witch curled her lip, a disdainful glint in her eyes. She swung the White Emperor’s Sword, instantly cleaving space in two. All the spears were cleaved in two, and all the ancient war trees were cut in half. The nearby forest, and all the creatures and magical arrays within it, were severed, blood staining the earth.
“Edgar, was this your arrangement? Were you trying to guard against me?”
the Macedonian witch said. “Ridiculous.”
The Rainmaker Legion rained down from the sky like silvery raindrops.
The seven regent courts of the Elven Empire issued orders to the people, summoning their armies. They seemed oblivious, as if they had never considered what to do if the Rain Realm army attacked from the sky. For years, they had only fought against insect swarms, completely forgetting about the Rangers and the Rain Realm. Now, however, the Rain Realm had poured out in full force.
The seven regents were still living in a drunken stupor, each seemingly just awakened from a beautiful dream.
The people of the Elven Empire fled in panic, ancient trees being felled one after another by rain-summoners wielding rain blades in their left hands and carrying cabbages in their right, these rain-summoners seemingly intent on destroying the Elven Empire.
The Macedonian witch looked towards the ranger, “Although I don’t know what you intend to do, Locke, whatever you want to do now is probably too late. After all—the resources already have owners.”
In the northwest of the Creation Lotus World, the previously tranquil insect nest suddenly stirred. Swarms of insects, having undergone further evolution, attacked the Elven Empire. Clearly, after their period of dormancy, the insects had sensed that the Elven Empire might no longer have the power to suppress them.
The Macedonian witch glanced at the direction of the insect swarm, pondered for a moment, and decided to let it go, because the existence of the Perfect Tree had greatly affected her magic; if the Perfect Tree didn’t fall, she would find it difficult to achieve the unification of the Three Realms. The Tree of Perfection constantly resisted her water cycle. Within the Elven Empire’s territory, her water cycle severely hampered magical effects, making it difficult to incorporate many rivers into its cycle.
The Macedonian witch looked at the level 20 assassin blocking her path, her gaze sweeping over him with surprise.
“I didn’t expect you to have the courage to stand before me. Your Emperor is currently in slumber. The Elven Empire may be vast, but no one can stop me.”
The level 20 assassin gritted his teeth. “With the Emperor asleep, I must protect this world. Rain Demon Leader, leave now. Our power is equal.”
He invoked the power of the Ancient Tree of Shadows, his body transforming into a shadow, then disappearing into it. The next moment, he appeared behind the Macedonian witch, thrusting a dagger towards her back. The Macedonian witch smirked.
The next moment…
*Crack!*
The Macedonian witch’s enduring defensive field blocked his dagger. His dagger, imbued with Star Ring-level magical pressure, couldn’t even break through the Macedonian witch’s enduring defensive field.
A hint of disappointment flickered in the Macedonian witch’s eyes. The power system of “All Things Return to the Tree” was weaker than she had imagined. Apart from the ancient tree legions of war that she had just faced, which required her to use the White Emperor’s Sword, everyone else within this empire was no match for her.
“To deal with you, I don’t even bother using any other magic,”
the Macedonian witch sighed. The next moment, water began to gush from the assassin’s nostrils and mouth. He clutched his throat, his eyes wide with terror.
The Macedonian witch moved with impunity. “Is there no one in this empire who can resist me?”
She headed towards the Tree of Perfection, when suddenly a colossal dragon descended. The Macedonian witch looked at the wizard Ramses in surprise.
“It’s you? Your consciousness has been forcibly locked by the Tree of All Things, and now you still want to protect this Tree of All Things?”
Ramses gave a wry smile. “I don’t want to protect it either. But there’s a problem: before Edgar fell into his slumber, he strengthened the Tree of All Things. This means that if you destroy the Tree of Perfection like this, my Great Magic will also collapse. It won’t just be a matter of being forced out of the competition; my Great Magic will also collapse, causing my magical pressure to drop drastically.”
“Even though Edgar is asleep, he’s still manipulating the power systems of us wizards he’s absorbed through the Tree of All Things.”
“We were originally prepared for the Tree of All Things to collapse naturally. But it definitely wasn’t destroyed by your forced external force.”
Ramses rode five-colored dragons, each with a head of gold, bronze, silver, crystal, and diamond—the Five Gem Dragons—possessing the magical pressure of the Star Ring Limit and the breath of the five gem dragons.
The wizard Ramses said to the Macedonian witch, “Lady Macedon, perhaps we need to sit down and talk. Destroying Edgar’s elven empire now is not a good thing. Look, that insect hive in the distance has started moving again. I think we need to have a serious talk.”
The Macedonian witch raised her cabbage sword and said, “There’s nothing to talk about. I can kill the insect swarm later. How can I achieve the unification of the three realms if the elven empire isn’t eliminated? As long as I can seize the rightful place in this world, I will naturally have a way to deal with the insect swarm.”
Ramses commanded the five-jeweled dragon beneath his feet to quickly ascend into the air. His expression changed slightly, and just as the five-jeweled dragon took flight, a spatial rift appeared below.
“Lady Macedon, Patrick, Haishan, and I have decided to first engage in a war of words with you, and then a physical confrontation. I ask you, how do you intend to deal with the swarm?”
The Macedonian witch said, “My ultimate spell, Rain Witch’s Master, is nearing completion, and even if it’s not fully finished, it can sense the flow of life. It has a special ability to locate the swarm. But I sense that the swarm is currently hiding within the Elven Empire. My act of cutting down the Tree of Perfection was precisely to force the swarm out. This is not a reason for you to stop me.”
Ramses pondered for a moment, then nodded, “Indeed. So you already have a plan.”
Ramses ordered the five-jeweled dragon to fly higher; the Macedonian witch was too bloodthirsty, and he was afraid that if they flew too low, she would cut him down with her sword.
“Our idea is to bypass Edgar’s arrangements through complex means, causing his ultimate spell to disintegrate automatically. Could you give us the three of us some time?” The
Macedonian witch pointed to the sky, and instantly, countless raindrops fell. “Ramesses, you think the sky is the domain of dragons and you? You’re wrong, the sky is my domain.”
“Ultimate Magic – Rain Witch’s Head!”
Instantly, heavy rain fell on the wings of the five-jeweled dragon. The dragon howled in pain; the raindrops seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, each drop actively seeping into the dragon’s scales, causing it to plummet.
“Rain cultivation method? Truly extraordinary.”
Ramses’s expression changed slightly. Rainwater was an ordinary thing, but the Macedonian witch had used it to her advantage. This Macedonian witch’s rain cultivation method was incredibly powerful; the rainwater was ever-changing, capable of satisfying the planting needs of most magical plants. Therefore, she could naturally use this rainwater to increase the weight of the five-jeweled dragon’s scales. Ramses
examined the dragon scales closely and discovered seeds of the Thousand-Pound Grass between the scales. Clearly, the Macedonian witch was using this method to increase the weight of the raindrops.
Ramses pondered, “Such a profound foundation.
Even such details have been taken into account.”
The wizard Ramses raised his hand, signaling the Macedonian witch to cease their fight.
“Lady Macedon, the three of us have posed a problem for you to see. If you can solve it…”
The next moment, the Macedonian witch’s White Emperor Sword slashed towards him. “This is a competition.”
“There are no intellectual contests.”
“You either step aside, or you die.”
This simple sword strike struck the five-jeweled dragon, which howled in agony as its dragon blood gushed forth.
Ramses’ expression changed slightly. He took out a magical plant resembling a flute, the Dragon-Controlling Flute Grass. He blew the flute, and instantly the Five-Gem Dragon unleashed its Five-Gem Dragon Breath at the Macedonian witch. This breath contained golden magic, diamond magic, bronze magic, silver magic, and crystal magic. The simultaneous eruption of five different types of dragon breath was incredibly powerful. An ordinary wizard would have been thrown into disarray, but the Macedonian witch used the Heavenly Cabbage she was holding in her left hand to create a water shield. This water shield absorbed the five dragon breaths, and then the water mirror directly copied and reflected them. These five dragon breaths struck Ramses’s Five-Gem Dragon directly, sending it flying. It crashed through seven mountain peaks before finally landing on the ground, carving a deep trench in the earth.
Ramses leaped off the dragon’s body, rising to his feet, his face covered in wounds. “My precious dragon is terrifyingly strong among the Star Ring creatures. Its defense and attack are both all-around formidable, but against that bloodthirsty madwoman Macedon, it’s like meeting its nemesis. Macedon’s defense surpasses my dragon’s, and so does her attack.”
Ramses blew his Dragon-Controlling Flute, and the sky filled with countless dragons. Among them were thousands of dragons of varying ages, some crystallized from the first ring to the next.
There were juvenile dragons, young dragons, and even adult dragons at the Star Ring’s limit.
Ramses’s ultimate magic, the Dragon-Controlling Flute, possessed a unique characteristic: its extremely small size, yet it could command a multitude of dragons. At this moment, all the dragons were under his control.
Fighting these wizards, I realized the gap between us. It turns out I’m only slightly stronger than Patrick. Fortunately, the competition along the Tianjiang River was about academics, not combat prowess. If it were a competition like the one Locke organized, I wouldn’t even need to compete.
The dragons attacked the Macedonian witch.
But the Macedonian witch simply swung her sword, and that single strike completely cleaved the dragons in two.
“Although I don’t have a jungle, I have a special breeding method that can create special magical plants.”
The Macedonian witch chanted a spell, and another Heavenly Garlic Cabbage appeared in her hand. The stalks of this Heavenly Garlic Cabbage formed a cabbage sword, which was pieced together with the cabbage sword in her hand through the combination of stalks.
The mystical meanings of the two Heavenly Garlic Cabbages were different.
Therefore, they were two different cultivated varieties.
One Heavenly Garlic Cabbage’s mystical meaning was [overlap], and the other’s was [severed in two].
Both were of excellent quality.
At this moment, the two different varieties of Heavenly Garlic Cabbage in Macedonia’s hands actually overlapped. The two mystical meanings, due to the special nature of the Heavenly Garlic Cabbage and the magic of the Macedonian witch, were simultaneously applied to a single spell model, the White Emperor Sword. Overlapping them allowed the power of the two White Emperor Swords to be combined, while severing them in two would enhance the penetrating power of the White Emperor Sword, concentrating all its power at the blade’s edge.
The Macedonian witch chanted an incantation and swung her sword at the sky again. This strike exhausted all her magical pressure, causing a massive spatial rift to appear as the sword fell. She then rapidly replenished her magical pressure using the Milky Way.
Dragon blood rained down from the sky.
Countless drops of dragon blood landed on the Macedonian witch’s face, making her look like a demon god amidst the rain. Ramses was instantly stunned by the Macedonian witch’s murderous intent. He watched as she walked past him, and just as he was about to move, her words froze him in place, too afraid to make a move.
“If you dare to move, I will kill you.”
At this moment, the audience in the Rain Marsh cheered for the Macedonian witch’s power. They had completely forgotten about Locke. What they were witnessing was the Macedonian witch finally showing her true skills and abilities, directly annihilating the dragons with two spells, and demonstrating how to use the overlapping properties of the cabbage magical plant to apply the mystical meanings of two magical plants to a single spell model.
This was the first time such a feat had been achieved in the desolate world.
This action directly shocked the wizarding audience, causing them to cheer wildly. Many wizarding apprentices and first-ring wizards were secretly excited. Was this the pinnacle of their wizarding land’s breeding magic? “
This pinnacle is so high!”
the wizarding audience shouted.
“Lady Macedon, hurry and charge towards the Tree of Perfection! Actually, you don’t need to solve the Creation Problem. Just eliminate all the contestants, and you’ll win!”
“Lady Macedon’s magic is truly amazing and incredible.”
Inside the Creation Lotus World, the Macedonian witch continued towards the Tree of Perfection. At this moment, she saw Haishan standing in front of her, and Lady Macedon raised her eyebrows.
“It’s you.”
“You want to stop me too?”
“I know how to deal with your blood curse. I’ve killed many dark wizards who used blood curses on the New Route. Many of them seemed more powerful than you. Haishan, would you like to give it a try?”
Haishan remained dashing. “In that case, please.”
Haishan stepped aside, letting the Macedonian witch pass.
The Macedonian witch frowned, then glanced at Haishan, walked past him, and continued towards the Tree of Perfection.
Just before the capital city where the Tree of Perfection was located, the Macedonian witch had already penetrated deep into the Elven Empire. Her own army was still fighting the Elven Empire’s warriors on the front lines. Just as the Macedonian witch was about to enter the capital, the wizard Patrick suddenly descended from the sky, blocking her path.
At this moment, the wizards watching were all puzzled by this scene.
“What’s going on? If Lady Macedon were to cut down the Tree of Perfection at this moment, she could secure the final victory. Patrick is a wizard from our Rainswamp, he has no reason to stop the Macedonian witch. The Macedonian witch demonstrated a special breeding magic that superimposed the mystical meanings of two magical plants through the characteristics of cabbage-type magical plants. She deserves first place in this competition.”
“Chairman Patrick, what’s going on?”
At this moment, in the competition group, Wizard Grandet, Wizard Kent, and Witch Bella exchanged glances. They all looked at Chairman Patrick, who was blocking the Macedonian witch’s path on the illusion screen in the sky.
Wizard Grandet whispered, “Patrick—you—”
Bella said, “I respect Patrick’s choice. Or rather, it’s this choice that makes me feel he deserves to be the chairman of our Mire People’s Club.”
Wizard Kent smirked. “I second that.”
Within the World of the Primordial Lotus, Wizard Patrick swallowed hard and said to the Macedonian witch, “Our greatest magic is trapped by the Tree of All Things. If you cut down the Tree of All Things, we will perish together with Edgar. Lady Macedonian, do not go any further. Otherwise—”
The Macedonian witch looked at Patrick with interest. “Patrick, how dare you block my way?”
“Get out of my way, or I’ll kill you first.”
Wizard Patrick’s eyes narrowed. “Although you and I are both wizards from the Rain Marshland, I am also a contestant.
Since I’ve entered the competition, I want to win first place. So at this moment, I will not yield just because you and I are both wizards from the same wizarding land. Lady Macedon, you do indeed possess overwhelming strength.”
“But—”
“But—if I yield, I will lose the competition, and I will be severely injured. I will not yield.”
Patrick chanted a spell, and the ground suddenly shifted, releasing a seven-colored light. When the light from the ground faded, Patrick and the Macedonian witch were transported to an area thousands of miles away from the capital and the Tree of Perfection. Patrick continued chanting the spell.
“Lady Macedon, you are indeed very powerful. But in the field of breeding, I am more skilled in nutrient soil science, which is related to earth magic, so I have also studied some spiritual touch. So-called earth magic is the neutralization of spiritual touch. I have placed earth magic everywhere in the Creation Lotus World, and I can use earth magic to move our positions.”
“I will not let you near the capital.”
The Macedonian witch looked at Patrick in surprise. “You actually dare to attack me? Are you still the Patrick I remember, the one who was too afraid to speak when he saw me?”
“How interesting, Patrick, your personality has changed a lot since you fought with Locke Augustine.”
Patrick couldn’t help but smile.
“Locke is a very magical wizard. Being by his side makes me want to fight even more.”
“Lady Macedon, I want to have a proper talk with you. Can we talk some more?”
The Macedonian witch looked at the Perfect Tree, without answering, because as she said, no one in this empire could stop her anymore.
Patrick’s stalling strategy wouldn’t last long.
She had to seize this opportunity.
Otherwise, if the situation changed, or if Edgar had some backup plan, she might be the one in trouble later.
After all, the core of the water cycle of the three realms was definitely the earth, and Edgar’s monopolization of the earth was a threat to her.
Most importantly, the roots of Edgar’s Perfect Tree were already eroding the Rain Realm. If Edgar’s Return of All Things to the Tree progressed further and he truly became the Void Emperor, then her Rain Realm would be filled with the roots of Edgar’s Perfect Tree People.
She didn’t have a complete advantage; if she relaxed even slightly, she would be at a disadvantage. Facing Edgar, she really had no room to hold back.
At this moment, the Macedonian witch suddenly flew up from the ground and flew towards the Perfect Tree, while Patrick quickly chanted a spell to shift the earth. He barely managed to keep the Macedonian witch away from the Perfect Tree.
At the edge of the Primordial Lotus World, the Mother of Insects sensed the growing decay of the Elven Empire. The stench of decay seemed like an irresistible spice to the Void Swarm, drawing it ever closer to the Elven capital. Moreover, the fighting between the Macedonian witch and Edgar provided it with numerous opportunities to exploit.
The elven empire was devoured by countless mortals.
The insect swarm invaded the elven empire once more, and the western region of the Creation Lotus World was instantly filled with them.
War raged across the world: Edgar’s war against the Macedonian witches, Edgar’s war against the insect swarm.
Meanwhile, in the jungle, Probus, facing the question from the elven ranger master, fell into
deep thought.
“Could you describe the events of that year in detail? For some reason, I am deeply moved by this situation.”
The ranger master replied, “Of course. Judging from your age, you seem to have been born shortly after that person’s death.
You were very unlucky; you didn’t meet that person.”
Probus, reflecting on his life, gave a bitter smile. “I was indeed very unlucky.
“
The ranger master then carefully described the events of that year to Probus.
Many young elves, after listening, were filled with doubt.
Life is so precious, why would that master choose to end his own life instead of using magic to prolong it? It would have been so simple for someone of his stature, wouldn’t it?
The female ranger’s eyes were filled with doubt. The ranger’s first principle was to cherish life and never willingly give it up; all rangers did this. So why would that ranger’s patriarch violate this principle?
Probus recalled the past, remembering the Arven elf’s dying smile and his mother’s dying words. His eyes were filled with longing for both of them.
“I have a nascent idea. I think the reason you Rangers want to protect life and extend your lifespan as much as possible is so that you can grow. Life is so precious, and wisdom is so rare. If you don’t seize every moment and use that time to pursue wisdom, wouldn’t that be the greatest waste in the world?”
“After all, if a person loses their life, how can they pursue wisdom, how can they follow the natural order? All of this is only possible if they live, and live as intelligent beings.” “
To enhance wisdom, to pursue something, one must protect one’s life.”
“Therefore, life is one of the most important things in the world, and it must never be given up. Thus, the Rangers’ act of extending their lives through understanding breathing techniques is precisely in accordance with the natural order.” “
And at that time, Mr. Augustine chose not to use magic to extend his life.”
Probus thought of his mother, who died young from overwork, and Arvin, who died young from illness and sorrow, “because there are always things more important than life.”
“Because there are things that someone has to stand up for. For others, exhausting all their strength, whether for family, for descendants, or for friends.”
“Mr. Augustine didn’t choose to use his power to distort the natural lifespan and prolong his own because he felt his death would teach you something.” “
Therefore, his actions were still in pursuit of wisdom, and thus still in accordance with the principles of nature.”
Probus pondered, “Two things that seem to have opposite results and opposite natures are actually the same. Augustine chose not to prolong his life, while the Ranger chose to prolong his life as much as possible. On the surface, they seem like completely different actions, but in my eyes, they are the same. I don’t know why you masters think these two actions are conflicting, and thus fall into confusion.”
“When looking at something, if you don’t understand its fundamental principles, your thinking will ultimately remain superficial, and thus your thinking will become shallow.”
The Ranger masters looked at each other, all lost in thought.
The younger Rangers either looked confused, unsure whether Probus was telling the truth or not, or they didn’t understand at all, and therefore didn’t react. The
Ranger master sitting on the rock frowned. “An interesting point. Now, let’s move on to the second question.”
A master ranger sitting on a rock opened his eyes and looked at the Probus elf who had approached him, asking, “The second question is: What does it mean to be close to nature? For thousands of years, the rangers’ standard for being close to nature has been defined as simply protecting the jungle and preserving nature, but it seems no one can describe what it means to be close to nature in a single sentence.”
“As you said, if we don’t understand the fundamental principles of something, our thinking will ultimately remain superficial and shallow. Therefore, this second question is about the principles of being close to nature.”
Probus stood with his hands behind his back, silent.
The master ranger on the rock looked at Probus with suspicion and said, “Young man, can’t you answer? Why are you standing here silently without answering? It’s perfectly normal if you can’t answer. You can speak frankly.”
The Probus elf frowned. “What about the remaining two questions?”
A hint of hesitation flashed across the face of the master ranger on the rock. “According to the rules, you must answer this question before you can answer the next one. So please answer.”
The Probus elf remained silent.
After a brief moment of thought, the remaining two Ranger Masters spoke up, asking, “The third question is: What is evolution?” “
The fourth question is: What is prosperity?”
The Probus elf raised his head and looked at the many Rangers with a puzzled expression, asking, “As you say, you have been pondering this for decades. Haven’t you all realized that these four questions are actually all one question, with only one answer, and all pointing to one thing?”
The many Ranger Masters were stunned. Hearing a wise and insightful elf from the Empire speaking eloquently and from a high vantage point, the number of Rangers and Ranger Masters who came to the Holy Land increased, filling the area with Rangers.
The four elven ranger masters, seated on the rocks and discussing matters of the heart, spoke up, asking, “How can four questions be considered one? These four questions cover such a vast range, from evolution and reproduction to the principles of nature and perspectives on life and death—the differences are enormous. We see no common ground.”
The wizard spectators on the viewing platform in the Rainswamp were also puzzled. They began to answer Locke’s questions individually and exchange views with their companions.
Locke’s four questions were closely related to breeding science, even addressing fundamental issues within the field.
These four questions, surprisingly, were also worthy of deep consideration by the wizards.
Within the primordial lotus world, Probus pondered: “The pursuit of true wisdom is to be close to nature. What is evolution? It is the pursuit of intelligent life, which transforms into prosperity, and thus, the pursuit of intelligent civilization. What is the pursuit of wisdom? It is the seeking of truth, the pursuit of reality.” “
Therefore, the standard for judging evolution is the pursuit of reality. The standard for judging prosperity is the pursuit of reality. The standard for judging whether one is close to nature is also the pursuit of reality. Even Mr. Augustine’s choice to leave this world was for the pursuit of reality, and the Ranger’s desire to prolong his life was also for the pursuit of reality.”
“Nothingness, illusion, falsehood, truth; the first ring, the apprentice—step by step upwards, all for the sake of two words: the pursuit of reality.”
Within the Azure Lotus World of Creation, the magical models of the Moon of Evolution and the Tree of Prosperity rapidly adjusted their structures.
The entire world suddenly plunged into darkness, and from within that darkness, a bright moon rose.
Simultaneously, the Macedonian witch, entangled with the wizard Patrick before the capital, abruptly turned to look at the moon in the sky. The immense power of the magic—the Moon of Evolution—passed directly through the Milky Way and entered her Rain Realm.
Wherever the moonlight reached, there lay the Moon of Evolution
. The so-called barrier of the magical realm simply did not exist.
The magical realm that the swarm and Edgar had painstakingly tried to enter was now directly illuminated by the Moon of Evolution hanging in the sky above the Rain Realm, shining upon every cabbage-like magical plant and other water-based magical plants. Moreover, the Moon of Evolution shone on every corner of the Azure Lotus World of Creation, every wisp of magical energy overflowing.
In the sky, a dazzling Tree of Prosperity seemed to rise upside down from the heavens, every leaf radiating brilliant light, making the tree resemble the sun.
Sun and Moon in perfect harmony!
The sun and moon’s movements seem to originate from within it; the starry sky’s brilliance seems to emanate from within it.
With the movement of the sun and moon, all the plants in the world have fallen into Locke’s ecosystem of the Evolutionary Moon.
The Macedonian witch frowned. “My ecosystem has also fallen into his. What level of pseudo-forging is he demanding? Could it be—”
the Macedonian witch said, “No, the key is where he got the energy and resources? Without resources, everything is like a castle in the air.”
“Even if his spell model is ingeniously constructed, logically speaking, without resources, nothing can be done.”
At this moment, in the jungle, Probus refused a Leaf of Power offered to him by the Ranger Masters. It was a 0.1-ring Leaf of Power, a Leaf of Power that every Ranger needed, but Probus refused.
He pushed aside the Leaf of Power offered to him by a Ranger Master on the rock. “Always staying in these deep mountains and forests, you will never find the path of the Ranger.”
“Friends, having lived in the mortal world, I have come to understand what the Ranger truly is. The Ranger is one who seeks truth within this forest.” “
On the path of seeking truth, one’s wisdom increases every moment, and this increase in wisdom has power. To pursue beauty is to seek truth, to pursue wisdom is to seek truth, to pursue upward progress is to seek truth. Therefore, the elf Arvin sought truth, and my mother also sought truth. The elf Arvin went further; the peaceful smile he showed before his death was because his essence had been enhanced in the pursuit of truth. The Ranger is one who seeks truth.”
“This Leaf of Power—”
The Ranger saw Probus walk to a rock, where a Leaf of Power lay atop it. Probus picked up the Leaf of Power.
A Ranger Master walked behind him and told him…
“This is the Leaf of Power that countless masters have pondered for their entire lives, unable to comprehend even on their deathbeds. It’s clearly just an ordinary Leaf of Power, so why did our ancestor tell us it’s special?”
Probus picked up the leaf. “I know what’s special about it.”
“This Leaf of Power is called: The Path of Rivalry.”
“Your ancestor played a little trick. This leaf gives you the power to go toe-to-toe with a creature marked with the Path of Rivalry, a being on the Ranger’s list of targets to be eliminated. In other words, without a powerful, evil enemy, it is indeed just an ordinary Leaf of Power. But with a mission, a goal, an enemy, it becomes incredibly powerful.” “
Although I don’t know why, I know what I must do right now. I must complete the False Forging: Seeking Truth here.”
A bolt of lightning struck the clear sky, its claws outstretched, seemingly ferocious, like the most terrifying beast, extremely fierce.
Above the Crystal Wall System, Locke’s true form curled into a smile.
“Finally, it’s done. Without memories, without abilities, without any form, my avatar Probus has still reached this point. This step is enough to be the first step in forging the ultimate magic: Seeking Truth.” “
It’s just a pity.”
“Although I only wanted to try out the pseudo-forging of Seeking Truth in this world, it’s still a pity that this happened. It seems I must try a different pseudo-forging in this world.” In
the Rain Swamp, a group of wizard spectators all stood up. Locke’s answer to Seeking Truth enlightened them, like a lightning bolt striking wizards who were already close to this realm.
And in the clear sky of the Rain Swamp, a bolt of lightning struck.
The plane of the wizarding world actually reacted. The plane of the wizarding world, which seemed to be inactive under any circumstances, actually began to respond.
The Eye of Truth of the White Wizarding Association appeared in the sky.
The wizards of the Rain Swamp discussed among themselves. They did not expect the answer to be Seeking Truth.
On the judges’ panel, the Red Dragon Witch showed a thoughtful expression.
“Seeking Truth—I remember this is a powerful spell that the Origin Wizard forged during his second-ring stage!”
“This is the highest level of forging, a forging of universal truth!”
Dean John stood up from his seat, utterly astonished.
“He’s only been a Star Ring Wizard for a short time, so his knowledge is incomplete. It’s normal that he doesn’t know. Could it be that your student, without knowing this history, forged our—the fundamental universal truth of the wizarding world, ‘Seeking Truth’—from scratch?”
Dean Faust recovered from his shock.
“It’s just a pity that Qiu Zhen has already been falsely forged and refined to a very high level by the Origin Wizard. His current level is insufficient to supplement this path, because this path has been supplemented too many times by so many wizards like us.”
Dean Faust said in a low voice, “This path did not exist before, but someone walked this path, and thus this path appeared. Starting from nothingness, illusion, and falsehood, the three forgings are a process of forging a path that did not exist before into a path that already exists.”
Dean Gray exclaimed, “Even if this path was falsely forged before, he actually independently falsely forged Qiu Zhen.”
If this person were to return to that era, wouldn’t he be the one who “falsely forged Qiu Zhen” back then?
The Dean of the Reptile Garden was more composed. “It’s just that he has some potential; after all, this is only a powerful spell that has been forged in a false manner.”
“However, if it were a universal world, if he were to forge universal truth, then—” “
That should be coming.”
At this moment, an invisible wind blew in from somewhere, quickly spreading and blowing over every wizard whose mind was unstable. Then, those wizards began to harbor inexplicable and abnormal hatred and resistance towards Locke, as if Locke were their father’s killer.
A wizard broke the silence, looking at Locke in the competition, and shouted words filled with hatred.
“You sycophant, you’ve put us all in danger just to hold your own competition. This Locke Augustine is a sycophant. He’s a sycophant!”
As a universal truth was about to emerge, the descending entities and souls roared in fury, uttering their most resistant cries. These cries, conforming to the circumstances, transformed into a universal resistance and incomprehension against Locke.
And this was the inevitable process of forging a universal truth.
