A Wizard's Secret Chapter 1008 – Nine Lives II

One time, two times, three times, four times…

No matter how many times the Nine-lives Werewolf was resurrected and no matter how much his power was amplified, each time, he was killed by Merlin’s single blow. He could not withstand a second blow at all.

“Ah ah ah ah, b*stard. What kind of person are you? How are you so strong?”

After dying eight times, the Nine-lives Werewolf was left with just one life. Currently, his physical attributes had been increased to his strongest state – nine times greater than his initial self.

Ninefold of his physical attributes – this was the moment the Nine-lives Werewolf was the strongest. However, now, the Nine-lives Werewolf who had always been so confident was scared as if the fearsome creature before him was the true freak. How could his physical attributes be so formidable? It was to a point where it was inconceivable.

Doomsday and the rest were stunned as well. Although they were ultimate contenders too, they relied upon their Supreme Talents. In terms of pure destructive power, they would fall short of the Nine-lives Werewolf by far.

As they watched the battle between the Nine-lives Werewolf and Merlin, the destructive power was truly a shock to these ultimate contenders. With the frightening power between both of them, wrecking the entire Holy Dragon City was a piece of cake.

Merlin’s eyes were wide with amazement. At this moment, he had become interested in the Nine-lives Werewolf. This was a pure strength-type ultimate contender. In this world, Merlin would not be able to find a second one. If the Blood-eye could devour the Nine-lives Werewolf, Merlin’s capability would expand further.

Although Merlin did not know what his limits were, all he could do now was to devour incessantly. Even if there were no almighty beasts’ will to swallow, he could consume the powerful almighty beasts’ flesh. The Nine-lives Werewolf was an excellent choice.

The Nine-lives Werewolf’s body was now twice the size of his initial bulk and was eye-catching as he stood in the empty square. One of his feet was enough to casually destroy a castle while his colossal body gave off a suffocating, horrifying pressure.

Ninefold of his physical attributes had given him unbelievable strength.

“Very well, finally someone has forced me to this stage. Nine times of my physical attributes, nine times of my strength. Not even I had ever experienced such immense power. I had never felt so good!”

The Nine-lives Werewolf’s heart was leaping with excitement. He was drunk on this feeling for it was a new experience. His tremendous strength even surprised himself.

Merlin glared coldly at the Nine-lives Werewolf as he said placidly, “This is your last chance. You have no more lives to squander, so let’s end it here!”

Merlin observed the Nine-lives Werewolf whose body was larger than his but felt no trace of fear. His gigantic body was immediately mobilized fully. This time, he exploded with all his might.

Not even Merlin himself knew how powerful his strength was but after he exploded at full strength, he felt as if even space itself was mightily compressed, about to shatter at any moment. He knew that in the Almighty Beast World, space was incredibly sturdy and breaking it was nearly impossible.

However, presently, Merlin had such feeling as if he only had to be slightly stronger to shatter space.

“Haha, come on then!”

The Nine-lives Werewolf unleashed a great roar as the muscles all over his body swelled. His body grew by a size and the energy that erupted even caused the air to hiss explosively.

“Boom.”

Both of them clashed at full strength and the petrifying crash resounded in everyone’s heart. Another layer of the ground was stripped off by this fearsome force. Rings of shockwaves swiftly spread out in all directions at a visible pace. All that they touched was crushed into smithereens and for several miles around, the surrounding land was leveled flat.

“It’s over!”

The smoke and dust had dispersed before anyone could glimpse what had happened. They saw the Nine-lives Werewolf wearing an alarmed look. His colossal body was now crushed mercilessly under Merlin’s bulk, without even the possibility of moving a muscle.

“Blood-eye, devour!”

A cold glint shone in Merlin’s eyes, following which the Blood-eye in his forehead projected a crimson beam of light that shrouded the Nine-lives Werewolf. Instantly, the Nine-lives Werewolf who was grievously injured by Merlin without any resistance, felt his blood rapidly surging throughout his body before he finally exploded.

“Bang bang bang.”

Endless fresh blood sprayed out from the Nine-lives Werewolf’s body and was absorbed by Merlin at once, who wildly swallowed everything. The energy contained within the blood of the Nine-lives Werewolf’s body far exceeded Merlin’s expectations.

Fortunately, Merlin’s current body seemed to have no limits. His bulk began to swell at a discernible speed. At the same time, there was something Merlin had never imagined. The barrier of the Illusory World in his body was swiftly fortified. Previously, it was very frail but now, as Merlin’s body grew stronger, the Illusory World’s barrier was subtly heading toward a true strengthened state of this world.

Maybe this was the only benefit the Almighty Beast World would provide to the Illusory World.

Merlin did not take note of the changes in the Illusory World at all. Currently, he only felt his body becoming stronger as if he was about to break free from his shackles. However, at the same time, he sensed a terrifying will stirring in the dark abyss as if it was suppressing him.

“This will? The Almighty Beast World’s will?”

Merlin was greatly shocked. That profound state swiftly vanished and he returned to reality. He saw that the Nine-lives Werewolf’s body had been sucked dry completely. Naturally, the Nine-lives Werewolf had become a withered corpse, breathing his last.

Merlin’s shapeshifted form was even more fearsome now. His body had grown by another size and his strength had increased an unknown number of times. Even Merlin’s tiny gesture contained horrifying power.

“Earlier, I’ve sensed the the Almighty Beast World’s will. Could it be that by constantly increasing my physical strength and reaching a limit, I can also detect the Almighty Beast World’s will? In other words, is this of the ways to become a sacred beast?”

Merlin did not know what happened. Although he used to be a great existence who contended against a Latitude Cosmo, in this unfamiliar world, many laws were different from the Void Zone. Merlin did not understand them well.

Luckily, as his body grew stronger, the Illusory World’s rate of recovery was boosted too. When the Illusory World was fully restored, Merlin would not need to fear the Almighty Beast World’s will.

No one paid any attention to what Merlin was thinking. Doomsday and the rest were staring unwaveringly at the Nine-lives Werewolf’s dried corpse. A proud and mighty ultimate contender had died?

Previously, the Candora Trio-Lords, despite their surprise attack, had merely seriously injured the three elders of the royal family but was unable to kill them. Nonetheless, the Nine-lives Werewolf who had nine lives, who seemed so difficult to kill, had now died at Merlin’s hands. Furthermore, it was in a confrontation of strength. This was far from everyone’s expectations.

“Swish.”

Merlin turned his gaze toward Doomsday. Of course, he still remembered that Doomsday had forced him into a corner back then. If it was not for Farron’s arrival, things would not have ended for Merlin.

“Boom.”

Merlin did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately lunged toward Doomsday. After his physical attributes were improved, his speed had increased significantly. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Doomsday.

“Soul of Light!”

Suddenly, Doomsday’s voice rang from all directions and the surrounding space started to fluctuate, turning into a blank white expanse as if blanketed in a white fog.

Merlin lightly shut his eyes and opened them again but it was still the same world – no changes. He knew that this was Doomsday’s Supreme Talent. Only a similar Supreme Talent could contend against this Soul of Light.

Farron had used his Mirror Talent to oppose Doomsday’s Soul of Light but Merlin had no Supreme Talents that were similar. Therefore, for the moment, he was trapped in Doomsday’s Soul of Light like the last time.
