Chapter 496: The Fifth Form!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The difference between the Yatho Dimension and Wizard Mogan’s dimension was too stark. Wizard Mogan’s dimension was a landscape of prosperity and peace with the Glorious Palace guarding the fort. While some of the cities were self-governed, there were no large-scale conflicts or warfare.
On the other hand, the Yatho Dimension was completely different. Led by Ossais, Merlin swiftly departed from the palace, crossed over some mountains, and found himself hovering in the air above a densely populated and highly developed city.
However, at this moment, the cities were suffering from the destruction of a massive war. Underneath them, smoke and dust formed a thick layer in the air. The troops on both sides were at war, and there were hundreds and thousands of men and horses killing one another on the battlefield. The horrifying sound of massacre resounded continuously in the air.
Merlin and Ossais were both hidden in the air, undiscovered by anyone. If it was merely a massacre between ordinary Normie troops, then it would not attract Merlin’s attention. However, he discovered that amidst the troops, there were Spell Casters in their ranks. From time to time, the Spell Casters would release some spells in tandem with the attacks of the troops, instantly causing the war to become even more vicious.
When an ordinary Spell Caster became involved in the war of Normies, it would cause the war to become more ruthless where a powerful Spell Caster could destroy an entire city with a single spell. Hundreds and thousands of men and horses were no match for a powerful wide-range spell.
This was similar to the war between the Kingdom of Blackmoon and the Kingdom of Light back then. It was the participation of Spell Casters that caused the war to become so vicious.
“Hmm? Such a concentrated bloodthirsty atmosphere! There are all kinds of negative emotions. How horrifying...”
Merlin’s expression shifted slightly. Darkness Eye in his hand was wildly absorbing all the negative emotions in the air. A faint trace of cool air began to appear in his palm.
Naturally, Merlin knew that these were negative emotions. Darkness Eye excelled at absorbing all kinds of negative emotions to become more powerful. In fact, when the negative emotions were accumulated up to a certain level, it might also cause a backlash to the Spell Caster.
Currently, the seal on the fourth form of Darkness Eye had long since been removed by Merlin. This was also the highest form that Wizard Leo had cultivated – the fourth form of Darkness Eye!
Previously, the fourth form of Darkness Eye stirred up a lot of trouble for Merlin. He had to constantly use the power of Maxim to suppress the fourth form of Darkness Eye.
However, after Merlin had consolidated his Mind Heart and continued to improve it, the Mind Power produced by his Mind Heart was comparable to a peak of the Eighth-level or perhaps even the Ninth-level.
Such a strong Mind Power enabled Merlin to easily suppress the fourth form of Darkness Eye. As a result, the fourth form of Darkness Eye could no longer spill its backlash at him.
The original problem had been solved but there was a new issue. The fourth form of Darkness Eye was the result of Wizard Leo’s cultivation. Right now, it could no longer keep up with Merlin’s needs. He needed the fifth or even a stronger form of Darkness Eye.
Currently, it was up to Merlin to find ways to enhance Darkness Eye, and negative emotions were unquestionably the best method to enhance it.
Darkness Eye in Merlin’s palm was glowing with traces of crimson light. Above his head, a huge, clear ghostly face appeared, accompanied by pangs of hair-raising, eerie shrieks.
“Such a strong backlash. Suppress!”
Merlin could feel it. As the war below them waged on, large amounts of negative emotions were being absorbed by Darkness Eye. Merlin had sensed that the backlash of Darkness Eye was growing stronger and stronger, so he needed more Mind Power to keep it suppressed.
Following the enhancement of the power of Darkness Eye, it would undoubtedly try to consolidate its fifth form!
According to rumors, the fifth form of Darkness Eye was capable of easily killing a Ninth-level Spell Caster. Even the peak Ninth-level Spell Casters who were beginning to attempt spell fusion would not able to rival the fifth form of Darkness Eye.
However, one must at least be a Ninth-level Spell Caster, and possess a deep understanding of Darkness Eye. One must also have the capability to suppress its backlash to be able to consolidate the fifth form of Darkness Eye.
Merlin had never thought that he would consolidate the fifth form of Darkness Eye right here and now. He was well aware that even in the off-chance that the fifth form of Darkness Eye was consolidated, with his current capabilities, he would have no choice but to mobilize the power of Maxim to suppress the fifth form of Darkness Eye. This way, it would result in consuming a huge amount of the power of Maxims.
“Maxims are so rare. It’s better for the fifth form of Darkness Eye to be slightly delayed. Although my abilities seemed to have reached a bottleneck and it’s difficult to achieve any improvement, as long as I achieve some breakthrough in spell fusion and manage to fuse three types of spells, then except for the topmost Ninth-level Spell Caster, I shall fear no one!”
Merlin knew clearly in his heart that the fifth form of Darkness Eye was too dangerous. At his current stage, it was not necessary for him to enhance Darkness Eye.
With spell fusion as well as the mysterious Occult Mind Spells, Merlin intended to rely on Occult Mind Spells to enhance his abilities in order to compete with an average Ninth-level Spell Caster.
Occult Mind Spells, especially top-of-the-line Occults Mind Spells, was indeed capable of competing against a Ninth-level Spell Caster. The entire premise of Occult Mind Spells was built upon enabling the weak to conquer the strong.
Nevertheless, Occult Mind Spells were notoriously difficult to cultivate. It was already difficult for Merlin to cultivate sufficiently powerful Occult Mind Spells, what more to match those Spell Casters who were armed with an arsenal of powerful Occult Mind Spells?
Above the battlefield, Merlin looked at the incomparably concentrated concoction of negative emotions. He knew that with this concentration of negative emotions, his Darkness Eye would be enhanced quickly.
However, if he wanted to enhance it to the fifth form, this amount of negative emotions was far from enough.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, Merlin’s body seemed to turn into a vortex. With him in the center, a gigantic blood-red eye vaguely took shape and appeared in the air, wildly absorbing the negative emotions.
“This...”
Ossais’ expression changed drastically. He could sense Merlin’s aura. This meant that Merlin was preparing to forcibly plunder the enormous amount of negative emotions from this battlefield, and consolidate the fifth form of Darkness Eye!
“Hum hum hum.”
In the air, the gigantic Darkness Eye was getting more and more defined. The enormous amount of negative emotions needed by the fifth form of Darkness Eye was being continuously supplied from the battlefield.
If this went on, it would be only a short time before Merlin had accumulated enough negative emotions to consolidate Darkness Eye to its fifth form!
That would be a powerful force that could instantly kill a Ninth-level Spell Caster!
