On the vast plain, a figure as majestic as a mountain sat in the center of the plain.
Like ocean tides, the Power of Abyss continuously flowed along the earth veins into this enormous body, a force that even a Dominator among Abyss Demons would be overwhelmed by.
However, this giant remained completely still.
He was like Kua Fu from myth and legend, constantly devouring the river named the Power of Abyss.
Suddenly, the giant opened his eyes, and the mere gaze from his four eyes made the Void tremble.
"Finally completed," Richard slowly spoke.
In the past half month, Richard had only done three things: constructed a nation seed, perfected the defense, and handed over the Black Desert to Ulysses, allowing him to take it back to the Wizard World to assist in defending the Miracle School Headquarters.
And now, his nation seed was complete, and the defensive link between the cellular dimensions was finished.
Moreover, he further strengthened the defense by integrating the Power of Abyss into the original foundation.
If he added the Black Gold Armor, Richard could be described as invincible.
Even an attack capable of destroying a medium-sized world would at most cause him some pain.
"At this level of strength, even if I’m alone, I can crush the two of them," Richard muttered to himself.
Combat was nothing more than two aspects: defense and attack.
And now that Richard had maxed out his defense, with his own insight, he could hardly think of any means that could break through his defense at the Breaking Limit Level.
Moving his body slightly, Richard pulled out his Black Gold Armor from the Void.
Unlike before, the armor now had seven things that resembled gemstones.
These gemstones were ultra-large Secret Realms fused into the Black Gold Armor. Connecting Secret Realms was not a patent of Wizards; the Abyss could do it too.
Because they could not directly intervene in the Wizard Civilization civil war, these days, Tai’er forged seven ultra-large Secret Realms for Richard using Titan technology to help him win the civil war.
Putting on the armor, the Black Gold Armor with its mystical patterns began to rapidly envelop Richard’s entire body with the infusion of Dimension Power.
At the same time, a Miracle Magic Array appeared in the air.
"Swarm, get ready to depart."
The Undead Wizard in a white robe called out with the Soul Sound.
Beside him, tens of thousands of Miracle Wizards gathered in this underground shelter hall. Law Enforcement Wizards, with gold embroidery on their Wizard Robes, paced among them, managing the order among the wizards.
The injured bowed slightly to the Undead Wizard and then made way for the injured behind them.
In this era, although knowledge proliferates, Wizards often lack time and patience for studying. So, the vast majority of Wizards only know witchcraft from their own School, with only a few common ones from other Schools.
Adding to this is the impact the battlefield of civilization wars brings—excessive firepower, leading Wizards to mostly end up in either a resurrection or unharmed state. Current Wizards heavily rely on the Undead Wizards and Wizards from the Physique School to handle injuries.
In the center of the hall, a group of Wizards at the Three Rings level surrounded a Crystal Ball with traces of flesh.
After the Alchemy School entered the war, the Miracle School Wizards gave up traditional Alchemy equipment, switching to using the Abyss Demon Armor developed by their own Miracle School.
And this Crystal Ball was a kind of Abyss Demon Armor and the only means by which this shelter could contact the Miracle School Headquarters.
"Zzz... Zzz... All Miracle Wizards, attention, all Miracle Wizards, attention."
Listening to the voice coming from the Crystal Ball, all the Miracle Wizards in the hall turned their gaze towards the direction of the Crystal Ball.
They hadn’t heard any news from headquarters for several days.
"All Miracle Wizards, attention, the Crown Throne has returned to the Great World, the Crown Throne has returned to the Great World. The war will soon end, and we will surely achieve victory."
"Repeat, the Crown Throne has returned to the Great World, the war will soon end, and we will surely achieve victory."
In the sky of the City of Eternal Truth, a Rune Gate slowly opened.
Richard slowly emerged from it, and behind him, the Second Generation Cursed Crown, Swarm Dominator, Dominator Puppet, and Mayfly Spirit entered the world one after another.
The Dominators of Richard’s faction were now fully assembled.
As he appeared, five Wizards slowly walked out from the City of Eternal Truth.
The Shaping Energy Crown, Alchemy Crown, Undead Crown, Soul Crown, and Physique Crown were all present at the Wizard World in their True Bodies.
This was almost unprecedented in the history of Wizards.
The Shaping Energy Crown and Alchemy Crown slowly ascended, looking at Richard with eyes filled only with calm and confidence.
"You look good, Miracle," the Shaping Energy Crown was the first to speak, "The Titan’s path is indeed formidable, even though you just advanced, I can no longer understand you."
Next to him, the Alchemy Crown kept looking over Richard, its crystalline eyes emitting red light while constantly measuring Richard’s body.
From his appearance till now, he hadn’t collected any information other than visual on Richard. Not from energy fluctuations nor from life radiation, there wasn’t a trace at all.
This was extremely abnormal.
The Wizard World is a world where energy elements are extremely abundant, and these energies and free elements interact with the environment. Even a Dominator will leave traces akin to background radiation under these interactions.
But Richard does not.
Richard is like a black hole; anything that interacts with him gets absorbed into his body, and all information generated by the interaction is controlled by his gravity, never able to escape.
"Shaping Power, there’s no need for more words."
Richard looked at the Plastic Energy Crown, his voice very calm: "You," his gaze swept over all the Crown Thrones before him, "and you all, only have two choices today.
Either submit, or die."
Richard’s voice was decisive, like thunder, resembling the will of the heavens.
The Plastic Energy Crown and the Alchemy Crown, upon hearing this, refrained from continuing to speak. In the sky, five colossal true bodies appeared simultaneously.
The body of the Plastic Energy Crown looked like the sun, but the light it emitted carried not a single trace of warmth. The Alchemy Crown’s body exuded the distinctive mechanical aesthetics of an Alchemy Machine; every inch and every millimeter of the enormous humanoid body was the highest embodiment of Alchemy Technique.
Behind them, the skeleton of the Undead Crown appeared magnificently extraordinary, and the moment he revealed his true body, skeleton projections began to appear beside him, as if Death God had descended.
Next to him stood the Physique Crown and the Soul Crown, one burly and towering, three-headed and a myriad-armed like a Demon God, while the other was ethereal, countless faces swirling incessantly, leaving viewers befuddled.
In response, Richard’s side naturally revealed their true bodies as well.
The Second Generation Cursed Crown’s body transformed into a gigantic Black Robed Wizard, beneath the black robe, a pair of multicolored eyes seemed to encompass countless dimensions.
The moment he revealed his true body, he and the Physique Crown disappeared together, entering the Endless Dimension for battle.
Beside him, the Swarm Dominator transformed into a figure resembling a longhorn beetle, directly confronting the Undead Crown.
Both Dominators excelled in tactics of overwhelming numbers; one utilized the endlessly dead Undead, while the other was a never-dying insect surviving as long as a single individual remained alive.
Their confrontation was destined to be a prolonged battle.
Richard’s Dominator Puppet sought out the Soul Crown; the Dominator Puppet could indeed fight on its own, it merely required the Dominator to coordinate its tactics.
Its soulless nature, to the Soul Crown, was nothing short of a natural enemy.
"Oh, targeting me, are you."
The Soul Crown muttered discontentedly, and like the other Dominators, entered the Endless Dimension.
Numerous Dominators rushed to the Endless Dimension, and in the blink of an eye, the battlefield was left with four: Richard, the Mayfly Spirit, and the Plastic Energy and Alchemy Crowns.
"Is this your reliance?" The Alchemy Crown glanced at the Mayfly Spirit, "Never thought the Galaxy Mayflies harbored such a treasure. This thing seems neither puppet nor living being..."
Suddenly, the Alchemy Crown shook his head, his voice tinged with a hint of cruelty.
"These insects indeed harbored malicious intentions; we should have exterminated their kind long ago rather than listening to you."
Meanwhile, the Plastic Energy Crown watched Richard.
"Submit or die, Miracle, do you truly believe that favorable Destiny can render you invincible?"
The voice of the Plastic Energy Crown was loud like a great bell, as if Divine was pronouncing judgment upon sinners on earth.
As he spoke, a world suddenly expanded with him as its center, instantly encompassing Richard within.
"So, you have already touched the starting point, huh."
Richard stood within this world, feeling everything around him rejecting and loathing him. This was not just a feeling; it was a tangible phenomenon.
The normally calm free elements turned frenzied around him, the energy in the air either distanced itself or transformed into harmful energy radiation towards him. Even the matter spontaneously harmed Richard.
And this was a significant characteristic of the path to Mastering Heavenly Destiny.
Mastering Heavenly Destiny meant transforming one’s soul into the World Origin, the world into one’s body. Any whim of the World Will could influence the world’s development.
If the octopus monster hadn’t gone astray, Richard and Mo Ke meddling with minor tricks inside it would have been suicide. Their methods would have been detected by the octopus monster the moment they entered its world.
On the other side, the mechanical world of the Alchemy Crown enveloped the Mayfly Spirit as well.
Competing for years, the two Crowns, while in competition, also absorbed knowledge from each other. This had led them onto similar paths.
However, the world of the Plastic Energy Crown was more traditional and closer to the conventional world, while the world of the Alchemy Crown was more aligned with his own definition and aesthetics.
The voice of the Plastic Energy Crown came from all directions, accompanied by nearly endless seas of energy. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novｅlfire.net
"Miracle, let me see, how strong has Titan made you; can you become strong enough to tear apart my world?"
Endless energy seas instantly engulfed Richard’s body.
These energy seas appeared to be the most ordinary energy impacts, yet they contained nearly infinite variations.
The energy molecules and Power of Dimension constituting the energy seas continually changed forms during impacts until they morphed into structures capable of tearing through an enemy’s defenses.
For this, the Plastic Energy Crown gave it an apt name - Energy Self-Evolution.
The Plastic Energy Crown’s eyes looked at Richard, his gaze only serene and confident. He believed this strike was sufficient to make Richard realize the gap between them... Hmm!?
The Plastic Energy Crown suddenly sensed something amiss.
Why is the energy in his world continuously decreasing?
