Chapter 723: Secret of Origin II

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Spell Caster civilization, which had three ultimate existences and was once glorified in the Void Zone, was actually created by this Aruba before his eyes.

No matter how unbelievable it was to Merlin, it was the truth.

Aruba was unperturbed by Merlin’s revelations and continued to speak. “The birth of Spell Casters exceeded my expectations. I merely constructed some simple Spell Models for them based on the characteristics of the Elements. It was at this point that the creativity of intelligent life was manifested. With just a few basic Spell Models, the Spell Caster civilization developed further and further effortlessly. Thereafter, they have developed Spell Models that are much more advanced and complicated as well as alchemy, potions, runology and so on.”

“However, the gods were powerful. Although the Spell Caster civilization’s development had exceeded my expectations, it had not been a smooth-sailing journey. A product of the Void Zone’s natural order still remained–the gods! Naturally, these gods had discovered the Spell Casters in no time. The fact that the Spell Casters were born seemingly without rhyme or reason also puzzled the gods. Nevertheless, similar to all the dimensions in the Void Zone, once the people ruled by the gods gained strength, they would retaliate against the gods. The Glorious Land was no exception!

“Hence, the Spell Casters began to retaliate. Alas, they have only developed so far, so their first and second attempts had been a failure. That, I believe you’ve already learned from my stone carvings. It was at this juncture that I intervened. Among this bunch of Spell Casters, I’ve nurtured a few people with strong inherent talents. I can still remember it very clearly. I changed my identity and went to instruct the first Spell Caster, Augustus.”

Merlin was shell-shocked. This name was not unfamiliar to any Spell Caster and was especially well-known among the Great Legends. This was because he was the first Ultimate Arcane Wizards of the Spell Caster civilization, Arcane Wizard Augustus!

“The second one was called Ceci. His talents were not lacking compared to Augustus. Under their leadership, the Spell Casters finally overcame the rule of the gods and even began to step foot in the Void Zone. I knew then that the Spell Casters will finally become a powerful civilization. However, this wasn’t what I wanted to achieve. Both Augustus and Ceci were very powerful, but they chose to integrate into natural order and be bound by it. They are forever unable to break the bindings of the natural order, and this was not my original intention.

“Subsequently, I chose another few people among the Spell Casters and used different identities to instruct them. You Spell Casters are indeed perfect. You’re intelligent, powerful and brimming with potential. In just a short amount of time, you were able to develop into a powerful civilization which was almost beyond my wildest imagination. Nonetheless, you have not been able to give birth to an existence above the ultimate existences. I remember the last two people I instructed were named Diss and Setoh. The talents of these two were probably second only to Augustus and Ceci.”

Merlin raised his head abruptly and a strange glint flashed across his eyes. Setoh was obviously Arcane Wizard Setoh. He chose to travel along the same road as Augustus and Ceci, which was to integrate into the natural order. Despite being bound by the natural order, they were able to have incredibly powerful abilities and become ultimate existences.

As for Diss, many people might not know him, but Merlin knew that Diss was the name of the Blackfire Lord. Merlin had been surprised that the Blackfire Lord and Arcane Wizard Setoh had such an intimate relationship with one another. Both of them had shared the same mentor. At that point, Merlin was also curious as to what kind of mentor could nurture an Arcane Wizard as well as a Great Lord.

It turned out that it was Aruba all along. In fact, it appeared that Aruba had single-handedly created the Spell Caster civilization. Even the three Ultimate Arcane Wizards had been instructed by him under different identities. Perhaps even they did not know that they had always been watched by Aruba.

“The Spell Caster civilization is now developed. They don’t need me anymore. As for my initial aspirations, they’ve been in vain... None of them could overcome the natural order or surpass an ultimate existence. I’m still alone. So, I finally decided to leave. After staying in the Void Zone for some time, I finally decided to leave and continue to explore the Latitude Cosmos, but I still felt a little dissatisfied when I was about to leave, so I laid down the secret place.

“This time, I don’t need to instruct anyone anymore. The Spell Caster civilization is already powerful enough. However, I must warn you all. If there comes a day when you’re qualified to integrate into the natural order, you must remember not to do so. Once you’ve integrated into the natural order, you’ll be bound by it and will never be able to break through your limits. The rest of the Latitude Cosmos is very exciting. The Void Zone is merely one out of billions of Latitude Cosmos. Only by overcoming, reversing and prevailing over the natural order, you’ll be able to leave the Void Zone and enter the vaster Latitude Cosmos. Although I’m aware that the chances of this happening are very slim and almost close to null, I still hope that one day I’ll encounter someone who can traverse the Latitude Cosmos freely like me. Remember, my name is Aruba, and I’m a traveler in the Latitude Cosmos!”

As soon as Aruba finished speaking, his figure started to fade and was about to disappear completely.

“That’s all? You’ve set up such an elaborate scheme and put me through so much trouble to find you. Don’t you have anything for me?”

Merlin looked at Aruba fading away with a sense of speechlessness. Perhaps this Latitude Cosmos traveler had lived for far too long, or his stay at the Void Zone was merely an insignificant speck in his long lifespan. He was just going to disappear after revealing the secret of the Glorious Land’s origins?

Despite the fact that Merlin had already received a priceless benefit, Aruba was an existence who has surpassed an ultimate existence. So, this was considered stingy of him. Aruba had left behind so many treasures in the secret place but did not leave them anything.

Aruba, who was yet to disappear completely, smiled. “You were able to find me, of course, you’re lucky. Back then, I’ve really mistreated the Mobata world by sealing them away from the rest of the world. From now on, Ruba’s Monument will disappear along with the seal on the Mobata world. You can now enter the Void Zone...

“As for the two of you, I’ll leave behind two Soul Medallions. The Mobatans will only need to drip a drop of fresh blood whereas the Spell Casters only need to imprint a strand of their Mind Power. The Soul Medallion can resurrect you three times after you die, and you’ll remain in the exact same condition before your death. These Soul Medallions are not easy to make. I’ve been spending all my free time in the past few hundred thousand years making these two Soul Medallions. Haha, hope you’ll be lucky...”

Aruba’s figure finally disappeared, and a golden stake appeared in both Merlin’s and Veron’s hands. This was what Aruba had called Soul Medallion.

“Resurrection...”

Merlin had explored the Void Zone, so he naturally knew that even the god could only triumph over death under specific circumstances. Once their divinity was destroyed, the gods would die.

It was the same for Spell Casters as well. The Great Legends have consolidated Maxims because as long as the Maxims existed, the Legends could not die. In reality, once a Maxim was destroyed, the Spell Caster would die as well.

Once they were dead, even the three Ultimate Arcane Wizards could not be resurrected. This was the constraint of the natural order which even the ultimate existences could not defy.

However, these two Soul Medallions could resurrect a person three times. This was obviously a reversal of the Void Zone’s natural order. Only a supreme existence like Aruba who prevailed over the natural order could create such a nature-defying treasure.

Therefore, Merlin and Veron did not hesitate at all and refined the Soul Medallions according to Aruba’s instructions. The Soul Medallions were quickly connected to the two of them. Wherever the Soul Medallion was placed, upon their death, they would be resurrected from it.

“Space is collapsing,” Veron said to Merlin. Merlin looked around, and true enough, the space around them began to collapse. The beautiful scenery from earlier was destroyed in the blink of an eye.

Hum...

Suddenly, a ray of light wrapped around Merlin and Veron, and they vanished without a trace.

...

It had been half a year since the three Sanctuary Contenders stood guard around Ruba’s Monument, but Veron had not returned.

Just as the three of them wavered, Ruba’s Monument began to quake furiously.

“The stone monument is moving. I wonder if Sir Veron is coming back?”

The three Sanctuary Contenders stared at the quaking Ruba’s Monument without blinking. The last time Ruba’s Monument moved was similar to what it was doing now.

Swish, swish!

A dark vortex appeared on top of Ruba’s Monument, and two figures flew out. It was really Merlin and Veron.

“Sir Veron, you’re finally back!”

“Half a year has passed. Does Sir Veron now know the secret of Ruba’s Monument?”

The three Sanctuary Contenders were overjoyed when they saw Veron. Obviously, Veron was the leader and spiritual pillar for these Sanctuary Contenders.

“It has been half a year?”

Veron did not answer these three Sanctuary Contenders. Instead, he looked towards Merlin. Veron still did not understand several parts of what Aruba said, but he believed that Merlin understood it completely.

Hum... Hum... Hum...

Ruba’s Monument did not stop quaking after Veron and Merlin had returned. On the contrary, its quivering had gotten even stronger than before.

Ka-chak!

A series of strange noises resounded from Ruba’s Monument, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the structure itself. The next moment, the monument crumbled into a pile of dust.

“Why did Ruba’s Monument crumble?”

“No power in the world was able to affect Ruba’s Monument. How did it crumble so suddenly?”

The three Sanctuary Contenders exchanged looks of bewilderment. However, Veron and Merlin looked calm. They both knew the reason. Aruba had left, so Ruba’s Monument naturally crumbled.

Moreover, the movement had not stopped. They could clearly see the surrounding space begin to weaken bit by bit as if the force that kept them imprisoned was rapidly disappearing.

Chi!

Merlin pointed a finger forward, and a flame began to burn. The space around them had collapsed in no time. This would have been completely unimaginable before this. Right now though, it was possible to shatter space even without the power of an Honored Legend.

After a while, the space in this world would be restored to normal. Aruba’s seal would also disappear. Any existence comparable to a Great Legend would be able to step into the Void Zone.
