Forty thousand years ago, the first period of chaos occurred.
When He arrived at the scene, He saw only a pale white monster with a gaping maw, ferocious tentacles, and countless scarlet eyes.
Countless faces slowly faded from the pale white spherical monster's body. He couldn't see the specific features of those faces, but He saw the monster reveal gentleness, suppressing its mad nature, tearing open the invisible and colorless vortex of time, and sending something out...
That was a power of time that even His Father God did not possess.
Both He and It are extremely malevolent beings that should not exist in this degenerate world.
He imprinted the monster's exact image in his eyes, then slowly retreated. He was not strong enough yet; he was no match for that pale white monster.
He planned to capture it, to plunder its power of time, and in exchange for a divine soul from countless ages ago.
Now, preparations are complete.
...
Purple Wind Academy.
"That ugly thing is talking to my Lan-gege again, and so close at that... Have you no shame, you ugly thing!"
"Damn it! Why wasn't it him who broke his leg?!"
"Are they really brothers? Their looks are absolutely opposite, at the very extremes of human appearance."
"It's not that it's really that ugly, it's just that there's a comparison...tsk tsk."
"The gorilla older brother is the bottom, and the handsome young younger brother is the top."
"Damn, your XP is so weird."
Huo Yang pushed his wheelchair and took his younger brother Huo Lan for a walk on the academy's path. The two chatted and laughed.
As for those harsh words, he was already used to them.
Besides, don't listen to those girls' harsh criticisms of him; he doesn't even look at those women!
No, or rather, most of those women were not good enough for him!
A level 4 mage at only 20 years old, with some subtle connection to the powerful Han family, and possessing a gold-grade magic book that ordinary level 6 mages couldn't afford...
Apart from the two world-ruling empires, no royal family would refuse Huo Yang's offer to marry into the family.
Besides, even if a girl were to fall for him, Huo Yang might not necessarily accept her.
Being lovers is fine, playing seamless human body jigsaw puzzles is fine, but if you really want to marry a wife... she should at least be at his brother's level, right?
Fire? Extreme greed? Yang.
His talent is truly exceptional. The probability of him becoming a legendary seventh-level mage in the future is at least 80%, if not 100%!
Mages below level seven, from level one to six, can be overwhelmed by sheer numbers. However, if a level six mage faces an army of millions and fights to the death, they will eventually run out of mana and be killed.
However, if one breaks through to the seventh level (innate), one will be connected to a certain "bridge between heaven and earth," becoming an invincible being. A large-scale spell can extend for hundreds or thousands of meters!
According to calculations by the highest levels of humanity on the God-Ember Continent, Level Seven is equivalent to the "Lower God to Upper God" in ancient myths and legends, Level Eight is the Main God, and Level Nine is the God-King.
More than two years ago, these high-ranking humans dispatched several level-seven mages, but they were all forced back by an incomparably powerful being in Purple Wind City. The high-ranking people had some guesses about that mysterious mage... He was most likely a god-king who had survived from ancient times!
Unfortunately, no one has been able to recreate the divine authority of ancient legends. The divine authority that could extend the lifespan of gods to millions of years and amplify their power by a huge margin seems to be nothing more than a fictional and exaggerated product of stories.
—Getting back to the main topic, if Huo Yang were born in the divine court that was burned to ashes by a single breath of fire in the past, he would have the potential to become a god and be worshipped by millions of beings.
The past deans of the magical holy land, Purple Wind Academy, were all only level six mages. Once they broke through to the seventh level, Bright Moon, they would claim to be traveling around the great land, and then another level six vice dean would take their place.
Therefore, a level seven is extremely rare.
But today, five level-seven archmages have arrived in Purple Wind City.
Four of them were former city lords or academy directors, while the third had no background in the mortal world and was a secretly cultivated individual.
May hangs high above the prosperous city, then suddenly bows its head in homage.
A blazing sun reigns supreme!
This all happened above the clouds, and apart from a certain boy in a wheelchair, almost no one knew about it.
Dean's Office.
Before the academy's dean, Ge Fei, stood the eighth-level Sun-class mage, representing the pinnacle that humanity could reach in this era.
The other person was wearing a white robe with distorted clockwork patterns on it.
He and five other level-seven mages, as well as Dean Gefei, actually belonged to a secret world organization that had existed for 40,000 years. The difference was that the dean was only a probationary member.
They are the official members—world enforcers known as the Priests of Time.
Level 7 is the minimum requirement to become a Priest of Time.
"Based on the primal fluid left behind by the source of chaos back then, the high priest prophesied that this chaotic event would be the most insane and outrageous in ten thousand years... to be precise, in all of history!"
"It is highly likely that this one incident alone will drag our world completely into the abyss!"
The Priestess of Time flipped through the student list and, based on her intuition, Xia Ji wrote: "The disorder of time needs the right person to correct it."
Yun Xiu, William, Fei Fei...
Before it was finished, two more strokes were added at the last minute.
Fire Sun, Fire Mist.
"These people should come with us to the Ghost Mountain Range to face that perilous place and seek a glimmer of hope!"
...
The Huo brothers' small villa.
