confusion!
Horrible! Dangerous!
As the power of the Dark Void continues to erode the space-time of Ravnica, the sky of this world has lost its sun, leaving only an unsettling darkness and nothingness, as well as energy shocks that suddenly erupt from time to time and are enough to destroy everything.
Although the ground beneath their feet has never collapsed and disintegrated due to Zuo Si's constant repair of the power to distort reality, all the people living here have fallen into deep despair.
Especially those planeswalkers who were forcibly stripped of their sparks and trapped in Ravnica, now began to hate themselves for having such a strong curiosity and had to run over to see what was happening here.
As a result, now that they have lost the protection of the Spark and are facing the power of the Dark Void, they have no other choice but to hide.
The only thing that made them feel fortunate was that the Ravnica plane was much more resilient than anyone had imagined, and did not collapse quickly in this devastating war.
At least outside of the approximately one-fifth of the battlefield area, there are still many areas that are not affected.
The survivors, including the planeswalkers and local natives, were originally here dealing with the immortals who were searching for those who were not affected by the elders' spell and had successfully preserved their sparks.
But with the influx of New Phyrexia, the situation suddenly became complicated.
After all, the notorious reputations of Shuoyou and Yawgmoth are too well-known to Ravnica, where planeswalkers often visit.
In their eyes, this was not a savior or an ally at all, but a simultaneous invasion by two horrific natural disasters from the multiverse.
So many people attacked the New Phyrexian army as an enemy without even thinking about it.
As we all know, Shuoyou creatures are also conscious and intelligent.
When they are attacked, they will naturally fight back out of the most basic self-defense instinct.
As a result, it was inevitable that the two sides started fighting.
Add to that the players who are controlled by the mastermind and causing trouble everywhere, and the situation becomes a complete mess.
To be precise, the entire Ravnica plane has become an absolute hell on earth.
Ordinary people simply cannot survive in such an extremely harsh and dangerous environment. They either collapse from exhaustion while fleeing, or are caught in the fierce fighting and die tragically.
In short, the world's population has dropped to an extremely low level in a short period of time.
Only those members who had previously joined the Ten Alliance and had a certain amount of power could continue to survive and wait for the dust to settle.
Of course, this also includes outstanding new generation planeswalkers such as Jace Beleren.
Right now, under the leadership of the Time Mage Teferi, they were approaching the edge of the battlefield with difficulty, attempting to make a final effort to eliminate Nicol Bolas, the biggest threat.
Because in that battlefield filled with the power of the dark void, Teferi could feel that a huge time rift had formed that was powerful enough to destroy the entire multiverse.
Yes, the terrible disaster that once caused Dominaria to fall into time and space chaos has appeared again.
As the advocate who personally took the lead in repairing the time rift, no one understood the horror of it better than Teferi.
If Nicol Bolas, the Eldrazi titans, and New Phyrexia were natural disasters that threatened the entire multiverse, then the Time Rift was a destruction that towered over them all.
After all, the essence of the time rift is that cracks appear in the barrier that isolates the dark void, causing the original energy and matter inside to gush out, forming an overflow and diffusion effect.
If left unchecked and allowed to continue expanding, it would grow exponentially like a snowball, eventually resulting in a dark void that swallowed up the entire multiverse.
No one knows what will happen after this scene occurs.
Maybe it's just simple destruction and restart.
The disappeared Primordial Dragon will appear again, recreating the next multiverse with a new starting point of time and rules.
The surviving planeswalkers can directly enter the next multiverse like the original inhabitants of the time boundary point.
It is also possible that the dark void of chaos will become eternal.
But no matter what the truth is, Teferi, who has an unparalleled love for his hometown, absolutely cannot accept such an ending.
Therefore, he must do his best to stop the time rift, just like the last time he repaired the time rift at the cost of degrading the sparks of all the planeswalkers.
"Damn it! The energy and concentration of raw aether here is just as high as that in the Dark Void. We can't hold out for long in this environment."
Chandra Nalaar subconsciously pulled her cloak tighter, and her originally slightly rosy face turned extremely pale.
As a fire mage, she actually felt a biting chill at this moment.
This is an experience that has never been experienced in any other time and space.
“This is the terrifying thing about time rifts.
Disrupting time and space is only the most basic impact.
The essence is to turn the entire space-time and even the universe into a part of the dark void.
In ancient times, before the planeswalker spark deteriorated, almost every duel between planeswalkers would produce such rifts to a greater or lesser extent.
Without exception, the largest of these were created by Nicol Bolas.
That's why I say he is the most threatening monster.
The characteristics of his spark seem to contain endless destructive power, which can directly guide the power of the dark void to impact the multiverse.
So this time we must defeat him no matter how much it costs and eliminate this huge time rift."
Teferi explained the knowledge about time rifts to these new generations in an extremely solemn tone.
As the spark degraded, the planeswalkers lost their immortality. Except for those immortal species, most of the ancient planeswalkers have gradually withered and died.
All he had to do now was to tell these young people as much as possible about the time rift and the threat of Nicol Bolas before he died.
Although this time mage had also witnessed how powerful the old Phyrexia led by Yawgmoth was, and how they crushed Dominaria with ease.
Even his own teacher, the legendary planeswalker Urza, had to admit defeat before him.
But in the face of the rift in time, the so-called sparkling oil that infects and transforms everything is not worth mentioning at all.
Even if Phyrexia really achieved the unification of all worlds, the multiverse would still be the same multiverse, but without the diversity of creatures and civilizations.
But if the time rift spreads, the multiverse itself will cease to exist.
"So... we're going to side with New New Phyrexia against Nicol Bolas this time?"
Elspeth, who joined the team halfway, frowned subconsciously.
Because her hometown was invaded by the old Phyrexian forces, and her spark was awakened during the process of transformation and perfection, she has a deep fear and hostility towards the Spark.
And she obviously didn't know about Zuo Si's relationship with New Phyrexia.
Teferi stopped, turned around, and nodded seriously: "Yes. At least this time, we must give up the feud with Phyrexia and capture Nicol Bolas first to prevent the further spread of the time rift."
"Okay, I understand."
Elspeth, who possesses the character of a paladin, is obviously a person who puts the overall situation first. Even though she was reluctant in her heart, she still chose to agree.
"By the way, I remember you said before that you had seen Soth in Ravnica?"
The planeswalker Nissa Revane suddenly interrupted.
Elspeth responded without hesitation: "Yes, I have seen him.
Without his help, the survivors of Mirrodin would have had no chance of surviving the rise of New Phyrexia.
And I have sworn allegiance to him, and he is now my king.
If nothing unexpected happens, he should also be planning to deal with Nicol Bolas."
“Hahahahaha!”
Hearing this, Jace Beleren, who had been maintaining a stern face and aloof attitude, suddenly held his forehead and laughed without warning.
As the only one in the team who knew the truth, he was obviously well aware that Elspeth was a poor creature who was kept in the dark by Zuo Si and was also a pawn being used.
Worried about New Phyrexia?
Stop it! That guy is obviously the legendary father of New Phyrexia, the only true owner of the oil after Yawgmoth's death.
All the demon judges who were fighting Nicol Bolas were Zuo Si's subordinates without exception.
Even an elder dragon planeswalker like the spirit dragon Wujin could not escape.
You have to know that Jace Beleren is an extremely proud and conceited person, and he has absolute self-confidence that is almost blind in all games and competitions related to intelligence.
But the moment Shuoyou's avatar used the partner card to formally reveal his identity, he felt like a clown from beginning to end.
What's even more ridiculous is that he clearly knows everything now, but he can't say it out loud and has to continue to cooperate with the other party's plan.
"why are you laughing?"
Nissa Revane narrowed her eyes and stared at Jace Beleren, who had been acting very strangely ever since the artifact Blackblade was broken.
As a woman with very keen perception and intuition, she could clearly feel that something was wrong with the other person.
Jace Beleren chuckled and shook his head: "Nothing, I just think your worries are a bit unnecessary."
"Redundant? Don't you think the current situation is not serious enough?"
There was a hint of doubt in Teferi's eyes.
"No, I just think someone is ready to deal with all crises. Besides, I don't think it's a wise decision to rush into the center of the battlefield without any specific countermeasures."
After saying this, Jace Beleren closed his mouth and said no more.
Because the partner card has begun to restrict him, preventing him from revealing more information.
"What do you mean? Are you saying that Soth is prepared to deal with both Nicol Bolas and the Time Rift?"
Elspeth asked in an uncertain tone.
Just when Elspeth was about to continue questioning, a loud explosion suddenly came from the front.
boom!!!!!!
The terrifying energy shock came at a speed that was almost impossible to capture with the naked eye.
"careful!!!"
Standing at the front of the team, Teferi decisively released the time magic he was best at, and wrapped everyone in a shield that looked like a huge hourglass.
When chaotic and disordered energy attacks, the shield immediately absorbs it in an incredible way.
"This is……"
Nissa Revane undoubtedly noticed the unusualness of this magical shield.
"Stop talking nonsense! Get out of this place! I just transferred the energy shock to a dozen seconds later."
Without saying a word, Teferi took the lead and ran forward.
After the group ran about a hundred meters, the disappeared energy shock suddenly appeared again and instantly crushed the place where they had just stood into ashes.
"I see! This is why you are called the Master of Time."
Ai Zipei's eyes sparkled slightly as she looked at the dark-skinned old man with a sad and weathered face.
"Yes, this is the time magic that I am best at. Everyone, pay attention. From now on, we have officially entered the core area of the battlefield."
After that, Teferi cast another unknown spell, instantly tearing away the heavy fog in front of him, revealing a spectacular scene that stunned everyone present.
In the center of the huge time rift, Zuo Si's oil-burning incarnation was engaging in the bloodiest and most brutal hand-to-hand combat with Nicol Bolas.
Except for the most powerful Archangel of Khorne, Zariel, the rest of the Judges and New Phyrexian gods have all left the stage.
Only a few scales emitting a terrifying aura were deeply embedded in Nicol Bolas's body, one of which even pierced into his eye, turning him into a real one-eyed dragon.
"I swear! Today I will make New Phyrexia a thing of the past! You are dead!"
Nicol Bolas, whose body was stained with blood and pierced by various weapons, roared in rage.
You know, since he was born, he has never suffered as many injuries as today, nor has he become as miserable as he is now.
Even though he was defeated and exiled by Tetsuo Mezawa, it was only because of carelessness and not because he suffered countless injuries like he did now.
"Haha, you're so cute when you're so angry. I guess you must be very scared inside, right? Because this is the closest you've ever been to failure and death."
The incarnation of Shining Oil grinned and made a mocking sound.
Although his current situation was not optimistic, to be exact, he was only one step away from collapse, but he was not panicked at all.
The reason is simple! This clone that is a fusion of the Black Gold Spark and the Star God is a consumable item used to test and force the opponent to reveal his trump card.
Now that the goal has been achieved, I won’t feel bad even if it is destroyed.
What's more, those broken parts have already been teleported back to Mirrodin with the help of the Cave Tree, and can be reassembled and resurrected at any time.
"So what! I will be the one who wins in the end! You and your men are doomed!"
As he spoke, Nicol Bolas glanced at the Angel of Khorne Zariel not far away with an extremely fearful look.
This crazy woman who was extremely fanatical about war and fighting left him with an unforgettable impression.
To be precise, in the long life of the dragon, no enemy could be more crazy than Zariel, not even the gods of war from many times and spaces were exceptions.
Because this woman was not afraid of death at all, and she was enjoying the ultimate pleasure brought by fighting from beginning to end.
The huge bite wound on Nicol Bolas' neck was caused by Zariel biting off a piece of flesh with his teeth and swallowing it on the spot.
Even though he was now on the verge of death and had basically lost his ability to move, those eyes filled with incomparable desire were still terrifying.
There is no doubt that the sword that Zuo Si spent a lot of time and energy to forge finally played a decisive role in this decisive battle.
If it weren't for Zariel, the Oil Incarnation alone might not have been able to hold out for so long, and it would have been impossible to force the opponent into such an embarrassing situation.
"Finished? Hahahaha! I guess you don't understand the master at all, right?"
The dying Zariel kept coughing up blood and laughing unscrupulously.
"Mad dog! Shut up and keep my ears quiet for a while. I'm tired of listening to your boring barking."
Nicol Bolas's tone was filled with disgust of unparalleled intensity.
Just as Zariel was about to retort, the Avatar of Shining Oil suddenly interrupted and said, "Well, my Angel of Khorne, you can return to Mirrodin to repair your injuries. Because you have completed your mission, leave the rest to me."
"Well, your will is my command."
Zariel instantly summoned the branches of the Cave Tree to wrap himself up, and then disappeared without a trace.
After she left completely, the only two dragons left on the battlefield were Oil Avatar and Nicol Bolas.
They just stared at each other for a few seconds before the latter broke the silence and asked with a sneer, "Why, are you going to give up resistance and wait for death?"
"No, of course not. I just noticed some old acquaintances were here."
After saying that, Zuo Si turned his head and cast his gaze towards the team led by Teferi.
He noticed that among these people there were not only planeswalkers, but also a considerable number of players.
"Hmm? Teferi! Didn't you lose your spark the last time you repaired the time rift?"
Nicol Bolas was visibly stunned.
As he said, all the planeswalkers who participated in that unprecedented event that year knew that the Time Mage Teferi lost his spark and became a mortal mage.
The guy even got married in his hometown and reportedly has a daughter and is enjoying a peaceful life.
"I did lose my spark. But a few years ago, a mysterious person gave me another spark."
As he spoke, Teferi walked straight to the center of the battlefield, pressing one hand on his chest.
moment!
The sparks inside began to flash a red light.
"Someone gave you a spark? Who was it?"
There was a hint of doubt and confusion in Nicol Bolas's eyes.
After all, fire is almost equivalent to life and soul for every planeswalker. Only those noble and dying planeswalkers will entrust their sparks to their best friends before they die.
He really couldn't imagine who would be so selfless as to voluntarily give up his spark to another mage who had lost his spark.
Teferi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't really know who he is. Because when I woke up, I found that I had a new spark again. If I knew who he was, I would definitely return this precious spark to him."
"Hmph! You are still as weak and hypocritical as ever." Nicol Bolas sneered.
It is not difficult to tell from that contemptuous attitude that he has always been looked down upon by this great time mage who enjoys a very high prestige among the planeswalkers.
Especially because of the other party's meddling, he lost his eternal immortal life and powerful power as an ancient mage.
"You are still as selfish, cruel and oblivious to the damage you cause as ever.
Look at this huge rift in time.
Have you forgotten the tragedy that happened in Dominaria?
Have you forgotten that the entire multiverse was almost destroyed by your hands?"
Teferi acted as if he was going to accuse someone, and his voice revealed tremendous anger.
Because in order to repair the largest time rift back then, countless planeswalkers and their sparks were sacrificed, and it was difficult to plug the huge gap.
But now this damn old dragon has created a new time rift again.
If I can't stop all this from happening, how can I be worthy of those who are willing to make sacrifices?
"Speaking of this matter, I still have a debt to settle with you.
If you hadn't been meddling, how could I have lost the power of the Ancient Planeswalker Spark? And how could I have spent so many years accumulating strength to launch this Spark War? Of all the Planeswalkers, you are the one who deserves to die the most."
Nicol Bolas brought up old accounts viciously, and his eyes were filled with ferocity as if he wanted to eat the great time wizard.
"In that case, let us speak with strength."
Teferi undoubtedly knew the other party's character, so he simply gave up persuading him and decided to take action directly.
He knew that it was useless to persuade a man like Nicol Bolas who would not care what happened after I died.
Only by defeating it can the current situation be saved and the huge time rift must be repaired in time before it spreads.
"Hahaha! How can you talk to me with your strength? This is really the funniest joke I have heard today. Have you forgotten how I pressed you to the ground and rubbed you repeatedly?"
Nicol Bolas laughed unbridled.
As the strongest elder dragon planeswalker who is comparable to or even surpasses gods, Teferi's ridiculous time magic has no effect on him at all.
As for those rotten fish and shrimps behind him, he never took them seriously from beginning to end.
In comparison, New Phyrexia, which has demonstrated terrifying strength, is the real threat.
"See, this is your greatest weakness. You never know how to restrain yourself, and you don't know how to advance or retreat. Lord of New Phyrexia, are you willing to join forces with us to deal with Nicol Bolas?"
Without any hesitation, Teferi directly invited Zuo Si's oil-burning incarnation to form an alliance.
The latter grinned and replied: "Of course, I just need some help..."
