“Rumble.”
The projection of the world’s will immediately crashed down. Merlin felt a tremendous pressure that he was unable to resist at all. Even though his strength had improved significantly, faced with the entire projection of the world, he was still powerless.
This was the power of sacred beasts to mobilize the world’s will to shatter the earth!
“Merlin! Activate the Illusory World! Even if you don’t use the Illusory World, this World Projection would still pulverize you. At that point, the Illusory World would naturally be exposed. Now, your only chance is to devour the world’s will in Ancestor Damon’s body before the world’s will can do so. Perhaps the Illusory World can recover then and able to contend against the entire Almighty Beast World’s will.”
Titus’ voice cried out in Merlin’s ear. Merlin was now in a precarious situation. He was facing Ancestor Damon’s sacred beast form, who had mobilized the world’s will, causing the entire world to cast down its World Projection.
Although it was merely a projection, it was not something Merlin could block now. Only by using the Illusory World and with the speed of lightning, devouring the world’s will in Damon’s body, would he have a chance of restoring the Illusory World.
Even if the Illusory World was not fully recovered, based on its previous power, the Almighty Beast World’s will before him was not as formidable as the Void Zone’s will. Back then, Merlin’s Illusory World was a mighty existence that could contend against the world’s will of the Void Zone. Thus, even if it was not fully recovered, it should be able to somewhat withstand the world’s will, unlike when Merlin first entered the Almighty Beast World and was frantically pursued.
Ancestor Damon’s gaze bore steadily into Merlin. After he had mobilized the world’s will, he did not display much emotion as if he was above all else, with everything in his control.
“Return – sacred beasts are a part of the world’s will in the first place. I’ve hidden for so many years. It’s time for me to return…”
Damon had the intention of returning long ago, only he had lacked the courage. Now that he had encountered Merlin, he was not confident that he could dispose of Merlin. Therefore, he could only summon the courage to immediately activate the world’s will.
Currently, the World Projection had been brought forward. After it killed Merlin, the remaining strand of the world’s will would be thoroughly fused, resulting in a complete world’s will that would guard this Latitude Cosmos.
However, faced with Merlin, this World Projection also seemed to turn unreal. Merlin was an outsider and would always have some unimaginable, powerful techniques.
“Illusory World, win or lose depends on this!”
Merlin soon made his decision and swiftly mobilized the Illusory World in his body. A dusky glimmer instantly blanketed the sky.
“Boom.”
The entire world quaked as if a scary presence was awakening. Merlin’s Illusory World was revealed once more – a complete and illusory universe that had its natural order. This was the greatest threat to a Latitude Cosmos.
At once, the Almighty Beast World’s will arrived at its greatest speed.
“What… What’s this?”
It was Ancestor Damon who was most shocked. He had mobilized the world’s will and even brought down the projection of the world’s will. This was his most powerful move as a sacred beast. In the world of sacred beasts, the world’s will was an unrivaled existence. Therefore, Damon had thought that by unleashing the world’s will and calling upon the World Projection, he could easily defeat Merlin. Nonetheless, now he realized that he had no way of sensing the outside world and was even cut off from the world’s will.
A change like this was astonishing to Ancestor Damon. He was even at a loss of what to do. He had been in the Almighty Beast World for so many years but had never encountered a scene as strange as this. In particular, that dim glimmering layer seemed to contain a terrifying power, forming a threat to his world’s will.
“Who are you?”
Damon yelled out sternly.
“You already know – I’m an outsider! Since I’m an outsider, of course, I have my ways to deal with you. Did you think that all outsiders are weak? All I want is the world’s will in your body.”
Merlin’s eyes flashed coldly and he did not delay any further. Mobilizing the Illusory World at full strength, he had isolated Ancestor Damon.
Simultaneously, he also activated the binding powers of the Illusory World, especially the natural order’s power, which forcibly extracted a portion of the world’s will from Ancestor Damon’s body.
This portion of the world’s will was far stronger than the will contained in the Candora Magic Mirror. The will in the Magic Mirror was merely one strand but the will of the world in Ancestor Damon’s body was a whole portion, containing terrifying, ultimate might. Any living creature born in this world, upon seeing this portion of the world’s will, would feel a tremble deep in their hearts.
Nevertheless, Merlin was not a being born in this world. He was a noble existence that could contend against a Latitude Cosmos. Therefore, a complete strand of the world’s natural order emerged in his Illusory World at once.
Although Merlin’s Illusory World was merely an intangible world and had not yet materialized, he had already condensed the world’s natural order – a very complete one at that.
A world’s natural order was the core strength of a world as well as its mightiest asset. It was responsible for the fundamental operations of a world. Thus, once the natural order appeared, it brought with it an unstoppable crushing force, firmly suppressing this portion of the world’s will.
“Boom boom boom.”
In the sky, the entire Almighty Beast World seemed to go insane. The World Projection in the sky descended even faster. Merlin did not have much time left. The entire world’s will might arrive at any moment now.
“Devour!”
The natural order of Merlin’s world successfully crushed this portion of the world’s will into smithereens and swiftly fused it with the Illusory World. At once, the Illusory World started to quickly and wildly expand. It grew by tens of thousands of miles, enlarging at an inconceivable rate.
At the same time, the initial, singular strand of the natural order, after being merged with this portion of the Almighty Beast World’s will, began to condense new strands of the natural order, one after another.
When Merlin had been in the Void Zone, the Illusory World had many natural order. However, after leaving the Void Zone, the Illusory World was smashed and scattered, leaving only a small wisp of the natural order that made it into the Almighty Beast World.
By now, under the stimulation of that portion of the world’s will, strands of brand new natural order were rapidly restored. With the emergence of the natural order, the Illusory World’s recovery was even faster.
“Ten percent recovered!”
“Twenty percent recovered!”
…
Titus was constantly observing the restoration of the Illusory World. After fully devouring the portion of the Almighty Beast World’s will, the Illusory World’s rate of recovery was outrageously fast. In a very short time, it had recovered thirty percent of what it had been in full bloom.
Thirty percent of power was, of course, insufficient to contend against a Latitude Cosmos’ will. Fortunately, Merlin’s Illusory World was ceaselessly recovering, showing no signs of slowing down at all.
“The entire world’s will has arrived. What’s this outsider doing? Can he fight against the entire world’s will?”
Ancestor Damon could only stare at the sky dumbly. Now he had lost his portion of the world’s will and was no longer a sacred beast.
Even so, he was once a true sacred beast after all. Naturally, he could sense the entire world’s will exploding at full strength, frantically heading here, gathering over Merlin in particular.
To be able to alarm the entire world’s will was enough to show how scary Merlin was. This “outsider” was far more fearsome than Ancestor Damon had imagined.
“Could it be that he’s going to devour the world’s will?”
A wild guess flashed in Ancestor Damon’s heart – Merlin was devouring the world’s will, even ultimately transcending the world’s will, controlling the entire Almighty Beast World.
This was the crazy plan that Ancestor Damon had thought of to avoid his world’s will being taken back. However, he discovered that it was too challenging to do this. The world’s will in his body was his greatest power but to use this to contend against the entire world’s will was a joke. It was impossible.
As a result, Ancestor Damon had become discouraged, beginning to think of “returning” the world’s will. However, he had never expected that this “outsider” could pull it off.
Of course, this was not necessarily a good thing for this world. With the maintenance of the world’s will, the world could operate as usual. If Merlin devoured the world’s will, would the entire world not collapse, falling into chaos?
“Rumble.”
Ancestor Damon instantly retreated hundreds of miles. He could sense that the world’s will was getting closer. The most terrifying thing was, the World Projection was fast arriving. This was a portion of the world’s strength. Whether Merlin could block the World Projection’s power was difficult to tell.
“Fifty percent! Merlin, the Illusory World had recovered fifty percent of its power. Haha, this World Projection can’t do anything against you.”
Titus’ laughter rang out beside Merlin’s ear. The Illusory World was fifty percent recovered, so the recovery speed started to dwindle.
To deal with a mere projection, a half-recovered Illusory World would not have any problems.
As the dust and smoke dispersed, Merlin was left alone in the air. He stood silently in empty space, facing the terrifying World Projection in the sky, appearing very tiny.
“Break!”
Merlin glanced at the World Projection in the sky and pointed a finger. The Illusory World’s power was fully stimulated, turning into an enormous palm. Like a skyscraping giant, it viciously pushed the World Projection in the sky.
This was a true battle against the heavens, against the entire world. In a dizzying flash, Merlin felt like he was back in the Void Zone.
He knew very well that ever since he had refined the Mind Power system and walked the path of a Mind Power Master, especially having created the Illusory World, no matter which Latitude Cosmos he was in, he would ultimately walk the path of facing off the Latitude Cosmos’ will.
Perhaps this was fate!
