Collapse of divine realm.

The void was like ripples on the water, and a simple wizard tower emerged out of thin air, hanging in the air.

Carl stood in the middle of the wizard tower, looking far ahead.

The earth cracked, mountains collapsed, rivers dried up...

The lifeless ruins come into view, and an invisible pressure falls on one's body, making one feel uneasy.

"call……"

Carl let out a long breath and murmured:

"If I had a choice, I really wouldn't want to come to a place like this."

This is a world on the verge of collapse, with the smell of decay and death filling the void.

Come here,

The mood naturally becomes depressed.

This is him as a formal wizard. If an ordinary person came here, he would probably go crazy in a moment.

"Death Ghost!"

"I hope it's not too strong."

According to the records in the wizard's book, the ghost of death exists because of death and is the nemesis of all living things.

It is also very powerful in itself.

Taking out a beehive, Carl flicked his fingers and a bee left the wizard tower and flew away.

“Buzz…”

The bee flapped its wings quickly and dived into a cloud of mist in an instant.

The fresh breath, which was completely different from the surrounding environment, also attracted certain beings to approach quickly.

“Swish!”

Carl's eyes moved slightly.

The scent of the bees had disappeared from his perception.

far away.

A dark figure was floating quietly, looking towards him like a ball of black smoke that was gathering and dispersing.

The figure's facial features were blurred, and his eyes, without any emotion, looked towards the wizard tower.

'It can't see through the wizard tower's invisibility spell?'

Carl was thoughtful, controlling the wizard tower to move slowly, and the dark figure's sight changed accordingly: "But he must have noticed something."

'So……'

Insight! The pupils of the evil god's eyes that were suspended above the wizard tower shrank, and a faint light fell on the black shadow from a distance.

Ghost of death!

Initial stage of the first stage! Insight is the basic ability of the Eye of Insight, and the Eyes of the Evil God can see through disguises below the third stage.

Best used for obtaining intelligence before a war.

"Early stage one?"

Carl felt relieved. Even if the Death Ghost could restrain living creatures, it would not be too strong in the early stage of the first stage.

Hmm? As he turned his thoughts, he found that the ghost of death in the distance had disappeared without a trace.

Where did you go? Suddenly.

A chill emerged from his back, Carl's hair stood up, and he rushed forward suddenly with lightning flashing all over his body.

“Crack!”

Wings of Thunder.

A flash of lightning covered more than twenty meters. When I glanced behind me, I saw a black figure standing quietly.

When did it come?

Why didn't the wizard tower's defense system respond? Carl felt a chill in his heart, and he shook his hands and shot out more than ten beams of wizardry.

Continuous fireballs!

Water arrow!

Splashing crystals!

result……

A spiritual light passed over the black shadow, and the black smoke on it rippled slightly, and then there was no reaction.

really!

Ordinary witchcraft has no effect on the ghost of death, and even first-level witchcraft has little lethality.

Carl stared at the other person with his eyes, completely unaware that bloodshot veins like tree roots were appearing in his pupils.

Everything in front of me seemed to be painted with blood.

wrong!

Karl's wrist trembled slightly. Although he didn't know what happened, he could sense that some changes were taking place in his body.

And this change is not good! Fuck! "Go to hell!"

Thousand Buddha Hands——Fearlessness Seal!

The fighting spirit in the body roared out and transformed into a huge Buddha statue, which made a seal with its hands and struck forward.

"boom!"

A wave of air tens of meters long appeared in the void.

And this,

Just the beginning.

Countless palm prints appeared in the void, each palm was several meters in size, bombarding the ghost of death.

“Boom…”

The smoke cleared, and the ghost of death with black smoke dissipated, its body twisted and appeared in front of Carl in a flash.

“Swish!”

Carl flew backwards and looked at his arm with a cold face.

Just get close.

The clothes on his body turned to ashes, and the muscles in his arms atrophied, like a shriveled corpse.

Fortunately, the blood of the giant squid from the abyss gave him amazing recovery ability, and the muscles in his wrists expanded like air.

Everything returned to normal in a flash.

'The Thousand Buddha Hands can suppress it, but cannot seriously injure it, and the martial arts will cannot truly kill it.'

'Perhaps my martial arts will is not strong enough?'

Light magic! With a flick of his finger, the field suddenly filled with blinding light.

This was a trick he had learned long ago, and now, driven by his powerful mental force, the light became brighter.

"hiss……"

The ghost of death subconsciously retreated, and the black smoke on its body showed signs of dissipating.

There is a way!

Carl's eyes lit up.

Light magic! Light magic! ...

Purifying Aura! A crystal staff appeared in his hand and penetrated into the body of the Death Ghost as it dodged.

If it still has a body.

In an instant.

Enshrouded in the halo, the body of the death ghost melted like a candle, and eventually turned into black gas and dissipated.

"clatter……"

A stone the size of a bird's egg fell out of it.

Soul core!

Carl reached out and caught the soul core.

"Um?"

The moment he took possession of it, he felt a chill all over his body, and then he saw wisps of black smoke winding towards the soul core.

In just a few breaths, an illusory shadow was about to appear again.

What the hell? The dead ghost can be resurrected?

However, the newly born death ghost was not strong. After a few palm prints from Carl, it collapsed again.

He didn't feel relieved until he stored the soul core into the fragments of the divine realm.

"The environment here is weird, so the dead ghosts can be resurrected infinitely. Fortunately, there is a solution."

Glancing around, Karl felt a chill in his heart as he sensed a chill approaching him. "Go back!"

…………

Fragments of the divine domain.

Carl took the soul core in his hand and looked at it carefully.

This is a black lump that is as hard as stone, and contains the breath of pure death.

“I wonder if it’s as effective as rumored?”

After a brief hesitation, Carl suddenly struck out with his palm.

The overwhelming force surged into the soul core and exploded violently, directly shaking the soul core into large pieces of powder.

"fire!"

Snap your fingers.

A wisp of flame appeared out of nowhere and wrapped around the powder.

Under the precise control of mental power, the powder was coiled into a shape similar to a mosquito coil, with a wisp of smoke burning at one end.

Carl took a deep breath, the smoke went straight into his stomach, and at the same time his inner mind began to become agitated.

efficient!

With a slight movement in his mind, the Source Sea Meditation Method began to work.

Half a month later.

Carl opened his eyes and glanced at his data panel, his expression not changing at all.

"Half a month of practice is equivalent to a year of normal practice. My mental strength has also increased a lot. The effect of the soul core is amazing, but I am afraid I am not strong enough to deal with the troubles that are coming."

Gould's accident.

The Green family will definitely react.

With the power of this family, even a slight effort can drive a second-ring wizard to take action.

Carl had no doubt about this and could even guess which second-ring wizard would take action next.

Fortunately, the Magic Forest is extremely far away from the Kalim Continent, and it would probably take some time to deliver the message.

In a short period of time,

It shouldn't be a problem.

But he can't hide in the fragments of the divine realm or the other world all his life, he will always have to go back and face it.

"Second Ring..."

“Even if I work hard and have an endless supply of soul cores, it will take me at least eight or ten years to reach the second ring.”

"Being a second-ring wizard doesn't just mean having second-level combat power. You also need second-ring witchcraft, inherited witchcraft weapons, and so on."

"so……"

"The Knight's Way!"

Carl narrowed his eyes and looked at his physical condition which was close to twenty points, then took out a whale egg.

After taking it, he refined it silently while his thoughts raced.

"It's no problem for my physical fitness to break through 20. The key is the will of martial arts!"

Martial will is the key to advancement.

Only when the will of martial arts penetrates all internal organs can the potential of the body be fully stimulated and a breakthrough be achieved.

"Martial arts will and mental strength, there must be some relationship between the two. The stronger the mental strength, the easier it is to break through the martial arts will."

"And facing the threat of death..."

"The Collapse Divine Realm is just right!"

"As long as the Knight's Path breaks through to the second level, with the blessing of the Dream Market, there is no need to be afraid even if a second-ring wizard comes."

soon.

Collapse of divine realm.

Carl roared towards the sky, his body transformed into a giant squid, and his innate witchcraft aura of fear burst out.

The second-level fear aura made the Death Ghost pause slightly.

"Eye of the Evil God!"

“Swish!”

A dark halo suddenly shot out from the sky above the wizard tower, like a sharp sword, splitting the ghost of death into two.

But the next moment, the two halves of the death ghost stuck together again.

'efficient!'

'But the effect is not very big.'

'The damage done by the second-level Fear Aura and the pseudo-third-level Evil God's Eye to the Death Ghost is still limited, and even worse than the Light Spell.'

"The principle of life and death..."

"Purify the aura!"

The crystalline staff penetrated into the body of the death ghost, and spiritual light burst out, destroying the ghost's body in one fell swoop.

After a period of fighting, Carl gradually figured out some tricks.

like.

The purifying aura can only exert its maximum effect when it penetrates into the body of the dead ghost.

If used outside, it can only cause minor injuries to the death ghost.

However, if the fog covering the death ghost cannot be dispersed, the crystal staff will find it difficult to penetrate the death ghost's body.

"First, use the Thousand Buddha Hands to attack, then use the Light Spell to wear them down, and finally use the Crystal Staff to complete the kill."

"pity……"

"Every time a death ghost is killed, it will cause some damage to the crystal staff. If this continues, it will eventually collapse, and then it will be difficult to control the death ghost."

"Um?"

After putting away the soul core and preparing to leave, Carl's eyes moved slightly, and he looked down from a high place to look at the few traces in the ruins.

"This is……"

"Has anyone been here?"

"Is there anyone alive in the Collapsed Divine Realm?"
