Chapter 1129

Chapter 1107 At sunset, in the land of sunset, O sun, go down!

The Great Cycle of the Four Symbols, through the spores and powder of the Golden Sands of the White Tiger Sea, spread throughout the world.

The cyclical protective energy safeguarded the land of the Creation Lotus. The elven gladiator awoke from the ground, and perhaps because Edgar’s power was too weak, he showed no trace of Edgar’s consciousness. Instead, he looked at Little Probus and asked, “Why is the sky so hot and bright, yet I feel no heat at all? Has the sun already set?”

Little Probus looked up at the sky, and the wizard spectators of the Rain Marsh also looked up at the sky with him.

Little Probus’s expression was calm, and before he covered his eyes with his left hand, his voice was authoritative.

“Locke used the Four Symbols Spiritual Breath Great Cycle to form the Heaven and Earth Guardian Qi, protecting this land and enhancing its vitality.”

With a wave of his hand, the Black Tortoise Bamboo fell to the north, the Great Bright Dragon Sparrow separated from the Golden Sands of the White Tiger Sea and fell to the south, the Golden Sands of the White Tiger Sea fell to the west, and the Green Dragon Vine fell to the east. The Four Symbols Spiritual Breath suppressed the heaven and earth, balancing the insufficient Heaven and Earth Guardian Qi caused by the innate deficiencies of the Creation Lotus.

The four pillars of demonic plants formed a special star ring spell model called the Four Saints’ Protection.

Although the ten suns continued to wander in the sky, they were powerless to harm this land. The beetles from the ten golden suns landed on the Guardian Qi, trying to absorb it and make it work for them. However, the moment they used their antennae to absorb the Guardian Qi, their mouthparts were burned by flames. Therefore, the swarm of beetles screamed and removed their mouthparts, emitting unwilling chirping sounds.

“The Four Symbols’ protective energy is not something you can absorb. My Four Symbols Cycle gathers the spiritual energy of the four major attributes, operating around me as the core, endlessly generating the protective energy of heaven and earth, which is righteous energy. This power is not something you can absorb; its power is extremely strong, the very source of life force in this world. “

Ten golden beetles cried out in fear within the sun.

The beetles swarmed towards Little Probus.

Flames engulfed Little Probus’s body, instantly turning him into a fireball.

Little Probus was unbearably hot; his clothes were ablaze, as if he were wearing a fiery cloak. He braved the flames, stepping on the protective energy of heaven and earth, and continued forward.

At this moment, the elven gladiator took a deep breath and roared towards the sky, “Come down! Haven’t you already solved the problem? Why do you need to go up again?”

“Our world has returned to normal and is functioning again.”

“Don’t go fighting those terrifying insects alone; you’ll die.”

Little Probus, stepping on the protective energy, his eyes resolute, took a step forward, saying, “If you only address the symptoms and not the root cause, the problem will only repeat itself. Even if you solve the root cause, it doesn’t guarantee the problem won’t reappear, but as a human being, I naturally want to try to solve the root cause.”

The ten golden beetles roared, but their voices were fierce yet weak.

They couldn’t understand the Four Symbols Great Cycle set up by Little Probus, so they could only emit threatening sounds in the sun.

At this moment, Ramses looked at the sky. As the most outstanding wizarding genius within the Summoning Hand, he naturally knew many secrets about what had happened.

The Mamluk Great Rift Valley, the Wizarding Land, was a wizarding land with a long history, so he had heard of the Void Worm Swarm’s ability to harness the energy of cataclysmic events resulting from failed forging.

He had heard of the Void Forging Worms.

If the Ten Sun Worms were Void Forging Worms, then who was Locke Augustine, who had driven the renowned Void Forging Worms to this extent? In

the Endless Void, countless civilizations trembled at the mere mention of the Void Forging Worms, yet Locke Augustine had rendered those ten Sun Worms blustering but ultimately timid. A roar.

At this moment, the wizarding audience in the Rainswamp, watching Locke Augustine, his body ablaze with flames, marching forward like the sun, remained silent; no one dared to criticize him anymore.

When a person’s actions align with their beliefs, even wizards with differing opinions will be convinced.

At this moment, a sun worm, unable to contain itself any longer, pounced on Locke, but Little Probus raised his left hand and punched it away.

At this moment, Locke, as the user of the Four Symbols Magic Plant, was also protected by the Four Symbols Guardian Qi Great Circulation. These four guardian energies transformed into an impenetrable shield, strengthening his… Despite his strength, the permanent defensive force field shell was still burned through.

The Four Symbols Guardian Qi primarily enhances the body and soul, but its amplification of a man-made object like the permanent defensive force field shell is less than satisfactory.

Therefore, while Little Probus’s body and soul were being tormented by the flames, he still possessed the power to punch a Sun Worm away.

A Star Ring Demon Plant appeared in Little Probus’s hand: Wang Bu Liu Xing (King of Unchanging Grass). He swung the Wang Bu Liu Xing, and ten Sun Worms let out painful howls. The fiery power surrounding them flowed downwards like water, landing on the Great Circulation of Heaven and Earth Guardian Qi that enveloped the sky.

The mystical meaning of Wang Bu Liu Xing (王不留行) is purification in flow.

It can enhance the fluidity of all energy, naturally causing the power of the ten sunworms to be lost.

As the power of the ten sunworms was lost, their magical pressure weakened, their light dimmed, and the blinding sunlight gradually extinguished. However, for some unknown reason, at a certain moment, the light of the sunworms, which had begun to dim, suddenly blazed brightly again, their power seemingly inexhaustible. They

could be resurrected after being killed.

Lost power could be replenished from some unknown source.

“Crack~”

Locke’s body began to crack open from the prolonged burning, and the flames caused him to bleed profusely.

Seeing this, the sunworms were greatly encouraged.

So—

this elf had also reached its limit.

So, this elf was not capable of destroying them.

Was it really impossible? “

Little Probus pondered, “But I’ve already achieved my goal. All I wanted was the energy flowing down from these sunworms.”

Little Probus waved his hand, activating the spell model: Linked Breaths. He used the magical level of a Star Ring Archmage and the foundation of Spirit Breath to nurture this first-ring spell model, making temporary modifications. Thus, using this spell model now, he transformed his spiritual energy into tentacles to capture the spiritual energy of the ten sunworms.

In that instant, the life force of the ten sunworms became connected with Locke’s life force.

The judges watching the competition all looked up. Dean John said, “His progress in spiritual energy is truly rapid. I didn’t expect him to have reached this level. I thought I was watching a centuries-old wizard casting a spell.”

Dean Gray stroked his beard and nodded in praise, “Indeed.”

The Red Dragon Witch said, “It is in times of crisis that one is most likely to perceive spiritual energy. I have heard that many wizards who want to improve their spiritual energy will personally venture into dangerous situations, sensing that fleeting spiritual energy on the brink of life and death. He honed himself amidst the flames of ten sunbugs, facing the possibility of death at any moment, yet always managing to survive. In this way, he can naturally enhance his sensitivity to spiritual energy in a short period of time.”

Dean Faust said, “That is one method. But it only works in a true life-or-death crisis. Since it is a life-or-death crisis, it is not child’s play. Many wizards who use this method often die before they have achieved anything in magic.”

“This isn’t the usual method. The most conventional method is still to honestly conduct magical research,”

the Red Dragon Witch said. “Extraordinary people do extraordinary things.”

Inside the Creation Lotus World, after Little Probus connected with the energy of the Ten Sun Worms using the “Twin Branches of Shared Energy,” suddenly, tree roots sprouted from the ten sun worms, these roots of the ancient tree of life entwining around the ten sun worms.

Little Probus gritted his teeth and strengthened himself amidst the flames.

“Edgar—Great—”

The voice of Wizard Edgar appeared in Little Probus’s ears.

“Locke, I am severely injured and cannot help you in my physical form. However, I have poured all the life force within my ultimate magic into your body. This avatar now combines the power of you, me, and Mr. Probus. Everyone says that the Void Forged Insects of the Void Swarm are an unsolvable problem, and everyone thinks they are powerful, but I don’t believe it. The combined power of our three avatars is no match for those Ten Sun Insects. Seven of the Ten Sun Insects were born within my empire; this is my mistake, my sin.” “

In that case, I must act decisively. I will join you in destroying these seven suns.”

Little Probus said, “Edgar, let’s work together. I want to verify a hypothesis. Perhaps we can solve this Ten Sun Insect problem.”

“The swarm can exploit a civilization’s mistake to create a Great Catastrophe Insect. This is the information I have gathered so far. Since it is a mistake, I must find out whose mistake these Ten Sun Insects are.”

Little Probus headed towards the ten sun insects.

“Help me control them.”

Little Probus chanted a spell, his mind penetrating deeper into the ten-sun worm’s body with each incantation. The worm resisted fiercely, releasing light and heat, trying to completely incinerate the approaching figure.

“We need to get closer.”

“But my body has reached its limit.”

Little Probus’s eyes were serious. He heard the gladiator below repeatedly urging him to stop, but he ignored him.

At this moment, his entire body was covered in cracks, blood flowing everywhere, his body wreathed in blood and fire.

“Today I will destroy these ten suns.”

Little Probus thought of Aven, of his elven mother, of the fleeing regents. An unnamed fire burned within him. Too many suns in the sky caused the elves to suffer. He would shoot down the suns!

Not far away, beside the Tree of Perfection, Edgar’s true form trembled as he raised the hand of his aged elven avatar. “All sins return to one.”

His aged elven avatar also burst into flames.

The elven emperor shone brightly in the flames, but the capital was in chaos, so no elves noticed.

Little Probus was able to continue towards the Ten-Day Worm. He walked forward about ten meters, strengthening his connection with the worm with each step, his mind constantly invading it.

“One last step—”

Little Probus lifted his right foot and took a step forward. His eyes glazed over for a moment, unable to take that final step. At this step, Little Probus’s body had once again reached its limit. Each Ten-Day Worm possessed the magical pressure of the Star Ring Limit, and the high temperature of each one had been transformed and modified by the Void Worm Swarm, giving them the combat power of a wizard with the magical pressure of the Star Ring Limit. Even with Locke and Edgar exerting their full strength, the light and heat released by the Ten-Day Worms still prevented them from getting too close.

Just then, little Probus seemed to see a young wizard suspended upside down above a bottomless pit, surrounded by countless thorny vines. The wizard had gentle eyes and a fair complexion, and little Probus saw him weeping, his eyes filled with fear.

Little Probus instinctively walked towards him.

“Sir, why are you crying here? You look so sad.”

The

man said to him, “Don’t come any closer. One more step and you’ll be in the abyss.”

“I am Probus.”

“I’m here—afraid.”

Little Probus frowned, looking strangely at the man with the same name. “Mr. Probus, what are you afraid of?”

Probus crouched down, clutching his head, and wept in fear, saying, “I’m afraid of the outside world. I’m afraid most people in the outside world are evil, I’m afraid to see those demons and monsters. I’m afraid no one can understand me. I’m afraid that the people I’ve saved will repay kindness with enmity, I’m afraid I’m a good person, but everyone around me is evil, and my persistence is meaningless. I’m afraid—I’m wrong.”

“I’m really scared,”

Probus said, clutching his head. “Can you understand me? I’m not afraid of real blows or real losses, I’m afraid of that moment of heartbreak. I’m afraid there are so many bad people outside, I’m afraid that the infinite evil path will truly be completed. I dare not leave here—”

Little Probus took a step forward, and the abyss, protected by the Four Symbols Cycle David’s Qi, transformed into a smooth path, while the thorny vines that tried to approach Little Probus were repelled by the Four Symbols Cycle David’s Qi.

Little Probus reached out his hand to Probus. “I used to be like you. But then, I went out on my own.”

“Now, I’m not afraid. So many people curse Edgar, Locke, and Macedon, yet they weren’t afraid. Locke said that all the wizards throughout history who walked this path were those who willingly served the people, defying the condemnation of thousands. Those who seek rewards will not persevere to the end. Those who chase wealth, fame, and benefits are chasing forms; they will inevitably not persevere to the end. Even if they do, they will unknowingly stray from the right path, misled by forms and obsessed with appearances. We are all seekers of truth, proving the truth, not seeking the gratitude of others.” “

If it were for the pursuit of fame, the gratitude of others, and wealth, I think we—would have many better ways to make money and gain fame; we wouldn’t have chosen the path of seeking truth.”

“The essence of Locke made me strong. It made us believe that the essence of people can truly resonate, that although their forms hurt us, their essence is drawing closer to us. Throughout history, haven’t we been the ones who have been hurt the most? But we still believe the future can be better.” “

Now, will you leave with me?”

“Don’t leave this path. Believe in our path.”

Little Probus looked at Probus with unwavering eyes. Their eyes met, and Probus felt the seriousness in Little Probus’s gaze—the essence of Locke influencing his form and essence, his essence calling him to leave.

Little Probus’s appearance transformed into Locke’s, and Locke sighed.

“On my first day at Mount Golden Crown, it gave me a lesson in abstract thinking. Back then, I couldn’t understand it. The wizards of Mount Golden Crown were all extremely pragmatic. They were all desperately trying to produce results, so why teach us to pursue abstract thinking?”

“Now I understand that what is called ‘practical’ isn’t truly practical, and what is called ‘abstract’ isn’t truly abstract. A person who pursues fame and fortune, who chases performance and metrics, will ultimately not persevere to the end. As soon as others’ evaluation systems change slightly, they will follow those systems. Only true passion can sustain one to the end. However, without sufficient wisdom, one cannot even find the path to perseverance. Mr. Probus, you lack wisdom.

77

‘The infinite path of evil is not your path.’

‘Does being hurt by others, or betrayed by those you’ve helped, affect your pursuit of truth? No, what truly affects your pursuit of truth is your current anger and attachment.’

‘Mr. Probus, step out of this abyss. If a theory is wrong, deny it; if your thoughts are problematic, try to understand them; if you can’t figure it out, seek guidance from better people.'”

“The past is unbearable, so let’s change it from this moment on. Admit the mistakes of the past to prove the correctness of the present.”

“Mr. Probus, there is no eternal sun. If you’re wrong, you must correct it. Only by honestly facing past mistakes can you gain better experience.”

The wizard Probus was moved. He could see that Locke’s true form and Edgar’s true form were burning with flames—the flames of the Ten-Day Worm of the Great Calamity of the Void Forging. He took a step forward, his eyes resolute.

“I will escape this abyss.”

“I will take action.”

The next moment, thorns attacked him. Even Locke’s Four Symbols Cycle Guardian Qi, for some reason, could not protect him and could only watch as he was entangled by the thorns.

Probus took a step forward, the vines tearing at his flesh until it bled. The ground where his feet landed was full of thorns, which pricked his feet and caused them to bleed.

The Queen of the Abyss appeared behind him, her eyes melodious and gentle, seemingly filled with pity, yet also disgust.

“Your Majesty, you will die like this.”

“Come with me into the abyss.”

Probus gritted his teeth, trying to move forward.

“No. I want to leave here.”

The next moment, his flesh was almost torn off by the thorns, but for every step he took forward, the thorns pulled him back.

Again and again, he was wounded and bleeding profusely.

The Queen of the Abyss said with pity, “If you fall into the abyss, you will not suffer so much. My king, come with me to become king, do not resist me anymore.”

The Queen of the Abyss embraced him from behind. “Come with me into the abyss, and become my king.”

“You will command the seventy-two demons.”

Probus roared, “Let me out.”

Countless thorns wrapped around him, and with his last strength, he raised one right hand, pointing forward. Then he seized the opportunity to use magic, diverting the flames on little Probus’s body to his own, and instantly the flames of the ten suns blazed fiercely.

The ten suns appeared in this abyss.

The Abyss Queen, engulfed in flames, remained unharmed. She looked up at the Ten-Day Worm, silent.

Above the World of Creation Lotus, Little Probus took a step forward. At that moment, the magic of shared destiny finally took effect. His mind invaded the Ten-Day Worm, and he saw a scene: Probus sitting in the Tranquil Garden, using a magic array to unify the three realms.

Years ago, when Probus suffered repeated setbacks and betrayals, he sat in the Tranquil Garden, muttering to himself as he activated the magic array.

“I cannot solve the creation problem. The problem has only become more difficult because of me. Three sun worms have crawled out from within my ultimate magic. I tried to solve the creation problem, but not only did I fail, I also gave the swarm the Void Forging Worm. I made the creation problem even more difficult. I don’t believe it.” “

To silence the outside world’s dissenting voices, I must prove a universal truth.”

“If it’s a universal truth, then it must explain everything. My previous thinking was all wrong. My idea of having the three ultimate magics circulate, assist, and prove each other is flawed. There must be a system, eternal and indestructible, that can explain everything. I will unify the three ultimate magics, I will create an eternal and unified theoretical system, use this system to unify my three magic systems, and then unify the entire magic system, so that the entire world will learn my magic and use my way. All future generations will be bound by my magic; anything not according to my law will be a weak law!”

“There must be a concept that can explain everything.”

Probus sat in the Silent Garden for a day and a night, pondering, and finally, he figured it out.

“I’ve figured it out. Everything evolves, all theoretical systems evolve. The history of plant evolution cannot escape the word ‘evolution,’ the history of summoning cannot escape the word ‘evolution,’ the principles of magic cannot escape the word ‘evolution.’ Everything is evolution, all things return to one.” “

Everything can be explained by evolution. In other words, the key is not the results produced after evolution, but that evolution itself is the common ground of all things and all phenomena.”

Probus adjusted the spell model, using evolution to operate the three great spells, and using evolution to merge the three great spells. He used evolution as the core to write the magic system. The School of Evocation is evolution, earth magic is evolution, holy magic is evolution—

not only that, the essence of the Swarm is also evolution, the essence of the three great gods is still evolution, and the mysteries of the endless void were all summarized by him with the word ‘evolution.’

At this moment, Probus summoned his students and taught them his theoretical system centered around the concept of evolution. The wizarding apprentices and first-ring wizards were all pleasantly surprised after learning it, because they discovered that understanding their previous studies through their teacher’s theoretical system made everything incredibly simple. They could cast spells faster, and the learning became much easier. A first-rank wizarding apprentice

respectfully poured Probus a cup of wizard tea.

“Thank you, teacher, for imparting such profound magic to us.”

Probus picked up his wizard tea and smiled, “I’ve actually benefited from this misfortune. Because of the external setback, I’ve focused more on my inner self, and I’ve come to understand the principle that ‘everything is evolution.’ In truth, how could anything be so complicated? There’s nothing inherently wrong in the world; it’s just that fools create their own troubles.”

“Everything is very simple.”

“It’s the principle of evolution. If you can understand this principle, you’re not far from becoming a Grand Wizard of the Moon Ring. I’m about to successfully complete my pseudo-forging; I’ve understood the principle of the unity of all things. This is evolution!” Even morality is an evolution. Think about it, everyone, doesn’t morality originate from evolution? “

Therefore, the truth of the universe is also evolution.”

Many

wizard students asked Probus how to study diligently. Probus sat in his wizard’s chair and took a sip of wizard’s tea.

“When you encounter doubts, you must resolve them. Only when you have no more doubts can you be considered to have learned. Research requires three things: the mind, the eyes, and the mouth.”

“For example, a pool of water—why is it always so clear? Because it receives fresh water every day. This fresh water is like learning. Now I want to rewrite evolution, simplifying complexity, unifying all things, achieving universal truth, and making the world’s doubts about me baseless.”

The wizard students looked at Probus with admiration.

Wizard Probus became increasingly excited as he spoke. “This evolution is heaven, this evolution is earth.”

Centered on him, a world began to form, with magical lightning swirling around him. He began to create his own world, a world of his own, isolated from the world. This world expanded outwards from him, and the wizarding students allowed these extraordinary spells to engulf them, believing it to be their teacher’s latest research, a chance to ascend to heaven with him. If Probus truly became a Moon Ring Wizard, wouldn’t they, the ones who followed him to the end, become his confidants?

A Moon Ring Archmage could already be the governor of a large world, or the ruler of several medium-sized worlds.

His status was extraordinary.

His academic standing in the Cloud Marsh Wetlands wasn’t low either; he was considered a relatively powerful wizarding instructor, only lacking a title.

Of course, the more important titles in the wizarding world were what Sun Ring Wizards began to pursue.

The wizard Probus was determined to construct his own world using his theories, then to forge it into a real world. Locke, witnessing this, sighed, for this scene was too much like a “fake forging—one proof, eternal proof.”

Only now did Locke realize how absurd “fake forging—one proof, eternal proof” truly was.

One proof, eternal proof, was a high-level fake forging, but the problem was that it was still a failed fake forging. The Three Ancient Kings were of such high caliber that, although their fake forging failed, their virtual forging refused to accept defeat and began to create its own world, a fictional world within which their virtual forging was itself a fake forging.

This was the Great Catastrophe of Virtual Forging.

An extremely powerful and domineering virtual forging, if it discovers it cannot truly forge in its own world, will continuously expand its boundaries in order to achieve true forging, attempting to create a fictional world, then pulling everyone into it, and successfully forging this world.

The Ten-Day Worm was born in this way.

Probus was doing the same thing at this moment.

Locke had already guessed what the “unity of all things” meant by the “other civilizations,” because he had almost made the same mistake several times before, but he corrected himself.

The time he was most likely to fall into this error was with the White Cardamom Farm. The White Cardamom Farm was a product of something similar to the Great Cataclysm of the Void Forging. The farm itself wasn’t evil, but the problem was that the ideology behind it had become flawed. This was because the White Cardamom Farm had changed over the long years.

And only now did Locke understand why so many high-ring wizards from Golden Crown Mountain wanted to destroy the White Cardamom Farm.

Locke appeared beside the wizard Probus and said, “Your ‘All Things as Evolution’ is completely different from my ‘Seeking Truth.’ Seeking Truth acknowledges the complexity of all things, but simply points out that if one wants a happy life and wisdom, one must seek truth. It also points out that seeking truth is the only way to elevate substance, while many in this world sacrifice their substance, lowering its level to pursue form, gaining more power, wealth, fame, or other things.” “

But Seeking Truth still acknowledges the complexity of all things. That’s just a direction, while your ‘All Things as Evolution’ is essentially a deconstruction.”

Probus walked towards Locke, his body passing through Locke, and then he walked away in the direction ahead, joyfully anticipating the forging of a pseudo-forge of universal truth.

Locke looked at Probus and shook his head slightly.

“Probus, you’ve become too impatient under external pressure. You haven’t realized that your theory of evolution, which claims everything is possible, is entirely based on your extraordinary talent. You’ve lowered the difficulty of understanding your theoretical system, but you’ve also sown the seeds of huge hidden dangers for yourself.” “

You’re behaving like someone who can’t distinguish between fire and water, trees and grass. You say fire is water, trees are grass, sky is earth, and you’ve found the commonality in these things—evolution. Your unifying theory aims to unify everything. This behavior is too much like someone with intellectual deficiencies, seeing everything as the same. You’re not stupid, but you’ve done something so foolish.”

Locke said, “You do this because you’re pursuing form. When you encounter external evaluations of you, in order to cater to those evaluations and gain more form—namely, fame, achievements, power—you start pursuing form. And a person who pursues form will inevitably think more and more superficially, ultimately becoming more and more foolish. So it’s understandable that you can conceive of such a magical system.”

“Evolution is like something worn on a person. Why evolve? What can we gain after evolving? That’s the meaning of evolution. Evolution is just a concept fabricated by wizards to describe natural phenomena and summarize natural laws. Yet you cling to this conceptual tool, directing everything towards it while neglecting the real thing. It’s like a person thinking their clothes are the most important thing, while the person wearing the clothes is merely an accessory. Probus, I will call your theory the Clothing Theory.” “

However, I can’t blame you. Because there are many people like you in this world, and even more famous than you.”

“At this moment, I have finally discovered your evil intentions.”

“This theoretical system that caused all things to return to one is your evil heart. It was this theory that attracted the Abyss Queen, making her entangle you and refuse to let go. And this evil heart has transformed into the Ten-Sun Worm before me. The Ten-Sun Worm is unwilling to accept its failure in the false forging, so it wants to create a false world and spread this false world to the entire real world.”

At this moment, Locke’s eyes overlapped with the eyes of the ten sun worms. From the sun worms’ perspective, the Creation Lotus World was burning with great fire, and all things were born from the fire, thriving. The sun worms were in their own world, and any attacks from the elven warriors, including his own, were in another world.

It seemed that the two sides were fighting in the same world, but the dimensions were different, so destroying the sun worms in this world was not very meaningful.

From the sun worms’ perspective, the destroyers were the wizards and elves, who seemed to live in two parallel worlds.

Of course, if the Evolution Garden could be destroyed and Probus killed, the Sun Worm problem wouldn’t recur. However, the Evolution Garden is currently in a special state, making it even more difficult to destroy than the Sun Worms. Therefore, this so-called Void Forging Catastrophe has become an existence that is completely unkillable.

Perhaps the other civilizations of the past, when faced with the three great catastrophe worms, also gave up resistance for this reason.

Although their civilization level was high, it was still insufficient. Faced with such a swarm of Void Worms, resistance only intensified their suffering and ultimately increased the pain of their defeat. Therefore, they simply gave up resistance and chose to accept their fate.

Judging from the records on the stone tablet, the other civilizations indeed lacked the ability to resolve the Void Forging Catastrophe.

Probus’s voice appeared in Locke’s ears.

“So, what should we do now?”

“What should I do now?”

Locke said, “Mr. Probus, mistakes must be corrected. Even a child understands this.”

“There is no sun that never sets.”

“Today, I will make your suns set. Only when they set can new and better suns appear. The place of sunset, the time of sunset, is the time of rebirth for all things.”

Probus’s expression shifted slightly. “A very interesting statement.”

“Rebirth—”

“Do I still have a chance to be reborn? Caught in sin, unable to escape the abyss, even if I use all my strength, I cannot leave the abyss.”

At this moment, little Probus drew his bow and arrow. The Crimson Gold Peach transformed into a bow and arrow, and the Sky-Supporting Jujube transformed into an arrow. It was a model of the Star Ring spell: Peach Bow Thorn Arrow.

In the sky, the Sacred Dragon Star shone brightly in the World of Creation Green Lotus, and the power of change descended.

The Four Symbols Circulating Guardian Qi entered the Crimson Gold Peach Arrow, and then he shot an arrow at the ten suns that were flying and swirling in the sky.

Instantly, the arrow pierced through a Sunworm, which immediately lost its light as if a light bulb had been extinguished, its corpse falling from the sky to the earth.

The rangers, looking up at this sight, all cheered.

The wizards of the Rainswamp looked up at the competition screen, waiting for the Voidforge Catastrophe to rise from the ground again, but this time, they couldn’t see it.

The Sunworm was dead, and that was that.

The remaining nine Sunworms, seeing this, were terrified, emitting hissing sounds that echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

The wizard spectators of the Rainswamp expressed their bewilderment.

“Why?”

“Why isn’t the Ten-Day Worm of the swarm resurrecting? What did he do? He merely connected his spiritual energy with that of the Ten-Day Worm.”

Locke’s physical form completely overwhelmed Probus’s physical form, fully controlling the avatar of Little Probus. Holding the Crimson Gold Peach Bow, he fired an arrow into the air. The Insect Mother, who had been watching the spectacle from the sidelines while remaining invisible, was actually shot out by his arrow.

The Insect Mother’s lower body was that of a spider, while her upper body resembled that of the goddess Rose.

She witnessed this scene in disbelief. “You can see me?”

“You can kill the Ten-Day Worm?”

Locke, holding the exquisitely inscribed holy bow, turned around and said, “You half-baked fool, don’t make me laugh. You’re really too clever for your own good.”

The innate demonic eye of the Three-Eyed Tiger Cat appeared on his forehead, and under the discerning gaze of this demonic eye, the Insect Mother had nowhere to hide.

At this moment, Locke pointed out one point.

“You invaded the Garden of Evolution, obtained its power, and conceived the Ten-Day Worm. This was a complete and pure Void Forging Catastrophe. But you shouldn’t have been so greedy as to invade the Tree of All Things. The problem with the Tree of All Things is the problem of Unforgedness, essentially an Unforged Catastrophe. You then drew power from the Unforged Catastrophe and injected it into the Ten-Day Worm, thinking this would strengthen it. But you didn’t realize that this Ten-Day Worm was already a hybrid, and your actions actually lowered its potential.” “

This is a problem I realized shortly after seeing the Ten-Day Worm; I was merely verifying it before. Not only me, but other wizards, Probus, and Edgar all realized it. When Edgar realized that you had personally lowered the potential level of your Ten-Day Worm, he directly abandoned the Tree of All Things’ protection of you, allowing you to obtain power through the Empire as much as possible.”

Edgar’s essence also controlled this avatar.

“That’s right. That’s why I used ‘Return of All Sins to One,’ completely ruining my condition, allowing you to invade my empire with impunity, and exposing all the problems with my ultimate magic. But this was just a side move. My real move was to use the problems within my ultimate magic to reduce the future potential of the ultimate insectoid race you were trying to create. When I became the Void Emperor, I gathered intelligence that you were trying to create some kind of ultimate insectoid swarm.”

The Mother of Insects took a half step back.

Probus, controlling this avatar, said, “Locke, today we will shoot down the sun with you. I want to personally obliterate my past flawed system so that something better can emerge.”

Locke drew his bow and fired another arrow, and a sun insect fell to the ground.

Another sun disappeared from the sky.

The Mother of Insects said angrily, “I know you wizards are competing with each other. Right now, I’m using these ten suns to deplete your magical pressure, and in the end, your companions will benefit. If you just shoot down ten suns like this, your magical pressure will also be exhausted, and then neither of us will benefit. Let’s make a deal and leave now.”

Locke raised an eyebrow. “You’re begging me because the swarm has nowhere else to go?”

Locke said, “The Holy Dragon Wizard long ago wanted to complete this pseudo-forging, but back then it was the Dark Age. The Tower of the Black Sun intervened, turning him into a star in the sky—a nominal ascension, but in reality, an exile. Now, perhaps this pseudo-forging can be completed in my hands. I don’t know if I can succeed, but I hope that with all my might, I can complete this immense magical pseudo-forging together with the Holy Dragon Wizard.”

“Mother of Insects, you said that if I shoot down these ten suns, my magical pressure will be completely depleted. Then I can take another step forward now. To forge a pseudo-forging of that level, I still need some academic accumulation, and my academic accumulation is still insufficient. Therefore, I will complete the Ten Kings Bottle here.”

Upon hearing this, the discussion among the wizard audience suddenly stopped.

A wizard in the audience suddenly spoke up: “I’ve only just noticed that the forests planted by the Rangers contain the direction of the only Spirit Vein in the Creation Lotus World. The Rangers have been doing nothing all this time; I originally thought they were pursuing inner power, but I didn’t expect it was still for—mining Spirit Veins. Mr. Augustine, is this to create more Garden Caves within the competition, increase academic accumulation, and complete his pseudo-forging?”

On the judges’ panel, the three-ring wizards exchanged glances.

Wizard Faust looked at the Red Dragon Witch. “Your Majesty, who is this Holy Dragon Wizard? What pseudo-forging did he leave behind? Was he an ancestor of your Golden Crown Mountain?”

Wizard Faust was full of curiosity.

The Red Dragon Witch looked thoughtful. “The Holy Dragon was a half-blood wizard. However, he is already an ancient one. I don’t know what pseudo-forging he left behind. Perhaps Locke comprehended it himself from the Peach Bow Thorn Arrow magic inheritance.”
