“He has won?”

Many Spell Casters were still rather stunned because Merlin had turned around the situation to gain an upper hand. The speed by which this took place was so fast that many were unable to even respond.

However, even if they still had not responded, a smirk had already appeared on Merlin’s face.

“Crack.”

In the blood-red light, that gigantic Progenitor’s Body began to exhibit cracks all over. Following that, it collapsed instantly just like toy blocks that were stacked high!

Under the double assault of Merlin’s Illusory World and Silencing Ray, he had finally defeated the Progenitor’s Body formed by the six civilization-level prodigies. After the Progenitor’s Body was destroyed, the bodies of the six civilization-level prodigies were revealed.

They were still alive. After all, Merlin’s Silencing Ray was not powerful enough. It could only disintegrate the Progenitor’s Body in its defenseless state, and had not slain those civilization-level prodigies. However, it was enough to injure them grievously.

“Silencing Ray!”

Merlin did not stop but instead acted swiftly. The giant crimson eye behind Merlin shot out another beam of blood-red light, which sped toward the six civilization-level prodigies. This might be Merlin’s final chance.

“D*mn wretch, you dare to do that?”

A giant Progenitor’s Body landed in the Seely Dimension. Progenitor Hanra had now directly gotten involved. He had never imagined that the six civilization-level prodigies would fail at the hands of a Spell Caster who was not even a Legend.

A suffocating force washed over Merlin, and he seemed to hear the furious cries of Titus in the illusion bead. Nonetheless, he was incapable of moving. Before the Progenitor Hanra, even moving an inch was a futile hope.

“Haha, Hanra, if you wish to fight, I’ll join you!”

The Arcane Wizard Setoh who had been ready to start a civilization war long ago sent forth his force as well, clashing resolutely against Progenitor Hanra. Instantly, the Seely Dimension rocked heavily as the ground split apart, being on the verge of collapse.

Nevertheless, Merlin had recovered his freedom of movement, and promptly flew out of the Seely Dimension. As he left, he glanced behind him. Under the second attack of Silencing Ray, the six civilization-level prodigies were not so lucky this time. Four of them died instantly, leaving only two others who had escaped by luck.

Merlin relaxed slightly. With only two civilization-level prodigies left, it would be impossible for the Rock Tribe to take over the ten or so dimensions at the front lines without starting a civilization war.

After Merlin had gone, the entire Seely Dimension was left only with the forces of Progenitor Hanra and the Arcane Wizard Setoh in a standoff. Both were evenly matched, and the slightest leak of their powers was enough to destroy the Seely Dimension.

The Arcane Wizard Setoh was in high spirits as he laughed. “Hanra, if you wish for the Seely Dimension and the ten or so dimensions at the frontlines to be annihilated, then let’s fight. However, the Rock Tribe’s dimensions behind you will no longer be safe!”

Only a tiny portion of Wizard Setoh’s and Progenitor Hanra’s power had landed but the Seely Dimension was almost unable to stand it anymore. If both fought, one could forget about ten or so dimensions. In fact, over a thousand dimensions would be completely wiped out.

Progenitor Hanra glared icily at Wizard Setoh, his eyes filled with fury. The Rock Tribe had taken so many years to cultivate the six civilization-level prodigies but now, there were only two left.

This was a disastrous loss! More importantly, if the Rock Tribe did not start a civilization war after losing four civilization-level prodigies, the Spell Casters would have the upper hand. Within a short time, the Rock Tribe civilization would not stand a chance.

Nonetheless, not even Progenitor Hanra could simply just start a civilization war!

“Retreat!”

In the end, Progenitor Hanra did not immediately begin the civilization war, and left.

This one battle had thrust Merlin’s name over the civilization-level Wizards. By himself, he had vanquished the Progenitor’s Body formed by six civilization-level Rock Creatures. Such a heroic feat could only be described as a miracle.

“Merlin, your name will be known throughout the lands!”

The Blackfire Lord was overjoyed. He had been the one to hand over the cultivation method of the seventh form of Darkness Eye to Merlin. Now that it had served such a great function, he was gratified.

Nonetheless, he was somewhat puzzled, and questioned in a low voice, “Merlin, earlier, that Progenitor’s Body didn’t move at all. Was it caught in your illusion?”

Merlin glanced at the Blackfire Lord and knew that he could not hide the truth. However, the Illusory World was linked to Titus and the Mind Power system, so Merlin must not let him know about the Illusory World.

Merlin could only nod in response. “Teacher Blackfire, perhaps it was because those civilization-level Rock Creatures weren’t Mind Power Masters, and even though they were civilization-level, they’re ultimately not Ancestor-level Rock Creatures. Therefore, my Hallucinating spell was able to affect them. This is one of the reasons I volunteered to go against the six civilization-level prodigies. Although it was risky, fortunately, I’ve succeeded in the end!”

The Blackfire Lord thought about it carefully. This seemed to be the only explanation, and he could not help but sigh in relief. He said slowly, “Merlin, next time, don’t be so reckless. Luckily, this experience was only a nasty scare without any fatalities. Let’s go into the castle and see what the Great Legends suggest. If the Rock Tribe doesn’t wish to cause a civilization war, then our fight ends here.”

“End?”

Merlin had different reasoning. This war was stirred up by the Rock Tribe. They would not possibly give up after suffering such a great loss.

Still, whether the Rock Tribe would ultimately begin a civilization war was something Merlin could not guarantee.

“Merlin, come into the Illusory World quickly.”

Titus’ voice sounded in Merlin’s ear.

Merlin was currently following the team of Legends, flying toward Wizard Setoh’s castle in the Void Zone. Thus, it was not convenient for him to take out the illusion bead. He could only send a Mind Power Projection into the Illusory World.

“Titus, what’s the matter?”

Before Merlin’s projection, a figure gradually formed. It was Titus.

However, the present Titus appeared rather taciturn. He stared at Merlin without uttering a single word.

“What do you want to say?”

Merlin felt that Titus was behaving strangely, and his voice was somber.

It was a long while before Titus spoke, “Merlin, a civilization war might erupt soon. You’ll encounter more dangers like the one you’ve just gone through, and you won’t be so lucky each time.”

Merlin knew that Titus was speaking the truth. If a civilization war truly occurred, even Great Legends would die one after another, let alone Merlin.

Furthermore, now that he had killed four civilization-level prodigies of the Rock Tribe, he would surely be targeted by the Rock Tribe. If a civilization war erupted, his position would become even more precarious.

“What’s your plan?”

Merlin raised his head, and looked at Titus. He knew that Titus would not say all of this for no reason.

Titus let out a long sigh. “Initially, I had wanted to set out a proper time to tell you in detail but the situation is tense now, so never mind. I’ve learned the Illusory Heart, and while I was consolidating the Illusory World, though I didn’t succeed, I managed to learn an avatar technique. You can transfigure another illusion bead, which is simple enough. You just need to know a little alchemy. It’s just that the materials are rather unique but you must find a way to transfigure the next illusion bead. Then, I’ll help you separate a third of the Illusory World’s strength, and move it into the second illusion bead. Next, you’ll send in a burst of Mind Power. In this manner, you can create a Mind avatar of your own.”

“Mind avatar? What for?”

Merlin had only heard of spatial avatar, wind avatar, and so on but all these were categorized as Maxim avatars. The Legend Zado and the Arcane Wizard Setoh were both able to form these avatars.

However, it was the first time Merlin had heard of the Mind avatar.

“To save your life!”

Titus said coldly, “A Mind avatar can replace you and die in your place during the most perilous times! As a third of the Illusory World has been used to consolidate the Mind avatar, once it’s employed, not even an Honored Legend would be able to tell the difference. Therefore, in times of danger, your Mind avatar could be passed off as your true self. Even the force would be the same. Who will suspect anything?”

Merlin was astounded. He knew that Titus had been fearsome back when he was in the Slothful Beast world. To be able to reach the stage where one could create an Illusory World was frightening indeed.

However, he had never thought that there would be such a wondrous technique, able to replace Merlin in times of great danger. This was equivalent to Merlin having a second life. Even the Arcane Wizard Setoh’s avatar only had formidable powers but was unable to replace Arcane Wizard Setoh himself in a dangerous moment.

Such a technique was beyond the realm of knowledge of Spell Casters.

Upon seeing Merlin’s astonished expression, Titus laughed coldly. “Merlin, you should know how terrifying Mind Power Masters can be. Hallucinating spells alone often have surprising results. If one achieves the Illusory Heart and controls an enemy’s spirit, that would be truly frightening! Nonetheless, besides Hallucinating spells, Mind Power Masters have plenty of other tricks. It was just that back then, I was focused on creating the Illusory World, and didn’t explore the various Mind Power techniques so much.”

Merlin could now imagine the Mind Power system as a blank piece of paper. He was free to draw as he liked, and all sorts of miraculous techniques might appear.

For instance, among Spell Casters, there were alchemy, runology, potions, and so on. If the Mind Power system was perfected, it would not lose to the Spell Caster system in the slightest. It might even be more powerful and unfathomable. If Merlin had studied this meticulously, there would be no end of techniques on par with Titus’ Mind avatar.

“The Mind avatar requires a third of the Illusory World. Won’t this affect the Illusory World?”

Merlin was currently relying upon the strength of the Illusory World and was thus concerned about this matter.

Titus wore a powerless look as he nodded. “Of course, the power of an Illusory World that has lost one-third of itself would definitely decline a little. As you yourself are unable to mobilize the full strength of the Illusory World, this missing third won’t affect you much for now. You’d better gather the materials quickly, and transfigure this Mind avatar before the civilization war starts!”

Following that, Titus’ figure vanished without a trace. In addition, Merlin’s Mind Power instantly received the specific steps of transfiguring a Mind avatar, which Titus had transmitted to him.
