Meanwhile, the Wishflux Inheritance at Ruby Mountain reached another critical juncture.
Although the turmoil in the lower Distant Sky Domain had been ongoing for several hours, Mercury Trojan Horse was oblivious to any news, as she had been at Ruby Mountain for 30 hours now.
During these 30 hours, she hadn’t returned to reality even once, continuously extracting the souls of disciples to replenish her soul energy. This was not only out of fear of missing an opportunity but also because… the competition at Ruby Mountain was so fierce that almost every hour someone managed to climb to the summit!
Since the last time she almost seized the Heart of Wishes, the Divine Sovereigns seemed to have dropped their pretense and revealed their true intentions, directly engaging in divine interventions.
First, there were sorcerers who could withstand the immense gravity of Ruby Mountain, attempting to fly directly to snatch the Heart of Wishes, only to be struck on the head by a meteor, which then rolled down the mountain, sending all the legends back to the foot of the mountain. Then, some sorcerers suddenly turned into skeletons, completely ignoring the corrosive Bloodfly Benediction, trying to rush to the summit from all directions, but were quickly pulled back by hundreds of spider threads.
In just this short period, Mercury Trojan Horse had witnessed nine types of divine interventions, leaving her numb to the spectacle.
Even though Ruby Mountain is the place closest to the Divine Dominion, and legends are the sorcerers closest to the divine realm, making divine interventions appear at Ruby Mountain is no easy feat. Mercury Trojan Horse estimated that the Divine Sovereigns must have utilized the groundwork laid over thousands of years at Ruby Mountain to accumulate this wave of divine intervention offensives.
Now, she once again climbed to the critical line 50 meters away from the summit. Beyond that was the high-risk area of Bloodfly Benediction that had bent countless legends to its will.
However, for Mercury Trojan Horse, she had already crossed the Bloodfly Benediction once before, and now she was ready to challenge it again with ease.
But at this moment, Mercury Trojan Horse raised her head, staring blankly at the Heart of Wishes atop the mountain.
And the man about to obtain it.
He was a sorcerer with an extremely peculiar appearance, and if one had to describe him, he looked more like a virtual realm creature, enveloped in violet strange fire, with fangs like a lion or tiger, arms extending into blade-like shells, and horns growing from his head resembling a helmet.
The violet sorcerer was less than five steps away from the Heart of Wishes, clearly able to reach it within a second, yet he continued to climb the Bloodfly Benediction with remarkable composure, as if he was in no hurry at all.
However, he was entangled with hundreds of spider threads, specks of light, and even a large swarm of Bloodflies-not the diluted Bloodflies from the Benediction, but genuine divine intervention Bloodflies!
Despite being entangled and obstructed by countless divine interventions, the violet sorcerer remained unaffected, as a faint light emanated from the Heart of Wishes, weak yet resolute, enveloping the violet sorcerer, protecting him from any external influence!
Even divine interventions couldn’t touch him!
Seeing this, Mercury Trojan Horse realized that the Wishflux Inheritance had a backdoor. The violet sorcerer likely carried a token in his soul that the Wishflux Inheritance recognized, which was why the Heart of Wishes actively shielded him.
The Wishflux Inheritance might be divided into both a real-world and a Virtual Realm inheritance. Only when someone inherits the external inheritance and becomes a legendary sorcerer can they undertake the internal Inheritance Trial on Ruby Mountain to inherit the Wishflux Celestium. Now, not only has the internal inheritance been pulled out, but it seems the external inheritance has also been seized by the Divine Sovereigns, which is why this violet sorcerer has appeared.
“No chance left…”
“The Abyssal Depths did this on purpose. They found the token of the Lord of Wishflux long ago, but waited until the Divine Sovereigns exhausted themselves against the hidden setups on Ruby Mountain before leisurely sending someone to claim the victory.”
“The Abyssal Depths barely used any of their reserves this time. If a similar Virtual Realm event is triggered again, they can leverage their accumulated advantage to win once more… The Abyssal Depths are set to win twice!”
At this moment, quite a few legendary sorcerers had climbed to the 50-meter threshold. Watching the violet sorcerer about to claim victory, they couldn’t help but voice their opinions.
Mercury Trojan Horse watched in a daze, her expression bitter, tears streaming down her face.
In the end, the players in this world are always those six lofty great beings, while everyone else is merely a side character to enhance their gaming experience.
The legendary sorcerers of this era are fortunate because they can at least witness divine interventions that transcend the Virtual Realm. Yet, they are also unfortunate because even the tip of the iceberg revealed by the Divine Sovereigns is beyond their ability to contend with.
Just as everyone was preparing to witness the conclusion of the Wishflux Inheritance, a blinding light illuminated the entire Ruby Mountain from behind.
Mercury Trojan Horse turned around and saw a sun.
A sun, slowly rising beside Ruby Mountain.
Then, a strange sense of joy surged into her mind, causing her to almost involuntarily lift her right hand, press her middle finger against her thumb, and flick towards the sun.
It wasn’t just her; at this moment, every legendary sorcerer who saw the sun made the same gesture, flicking towards the sun from afar.
As if they could really flick the sun, it began to shrink and flew towards Ruby Mountain, eventually becoming a tiny bead, shooting towards the mountain’s peak!
But its target wasn’t the violet sorcerer; it was-
The Heart of Wishes!
Although it seemed like a long time, from the sun’s appearance to it shooting towards the Heart of Wishes, it all happened in less than a second. The violet sorcerer had no time to rush over before seeing the tiny sun pierce through the Heart of Wishes, and then-
Boom!
The Heart of Wishes shattered, releasing a torrent of Benediction that swept all the legendary sorcerers down to the mountain’s base, including the violet sorcerer! Moreover, the Bloodflies seemed to lose their restraint, quickly spreading into all the Benediction, though their concentration was greatly diluted, still causing significant trouble for many legends!
“Wishflux is but an illusion, all thoughts are void.”
Mercury Trojan Horse barely managed to maintain her stance amidst the Benediction torrent, looking up to see a white figure dissolving at the mountain’s peak, beneath which was a slightly smaller Heart of Wishes.
It was then that Mercury Trojan Horse realized her spellforce was nearly depleted. Clearly, the solar divine intervention had consumed the spellforce of these legendary sorcerers to drive it, and they themselves were the catalysts for the divine intervention!
Even the legendary sorcerers who had witnessed numerous divine interventions today found it hard to suppress the dread within their hearts-being controlled, having their spellforce drained, and being driven by divine interventions they couldn’t comprehend!
Compared to irresistible violence, this kind of unavoidable control was even more despairing and demoralizing. Every time they thought they understood the Divine Sovereign, he would remind them of their ignorance.
If someone were to observe both the Distant Sky Domain and Ruby Mountain simultaneously, they would find it quite peculiar: the sanctuary sorcerers, who barely understood the Divine Sovereign, were fiercely resisting the sorcerer teams sent by the Divine Sovereign; whereas the legendary sorcerers, who knew much about the Divine Sovereign, were left with nothing but deep reverence.
Suddenly, a cheerful voice echoed in everyone’s mind:
“The last will of the Lord of Wishflux has been extinguished. Now, whoever obtains the Heart of Wishes will no longer be influenced by the Lord of Wishflux. Naturally, the tokens left by the Lord of Wishflux have also lost their effect.”
“With the control of the Wishflux Will gone, the Wishflux Celestium and Ruby Mountain have partially overlapped. Now, none of you can use spirit or spellforce, but likewise, divine interventions cannot take effect.”
“Charge forward boldly, sorcerers of wonderland, I believe you are the best!”
After listening to this message, Mercury Trojan Horse realized that the Heart of Wishes had a trap-the influence of the Wishflux Will! Although the Wishflux Will might not intend harm, if it did, could a mere legendary sorcerer resist the modification and usurpation by the Will of the Divine Sovereign?
Now that the Heart of Wishes was shattered, the Wishflux Will extinguished, and the Wishflux Celestium overlapped with Ruby Mountain, everyone’s progress was reset to zero.
However, this time, there would be no divine intervention; everyone stood on the same starting line!
Yet, for some reason, this message meant for the sorcerers of wonderland was received by all sorcerers. Could it be because they provided the spellforce for the solar divine intervention?
Only the sorcerers of wonderland knew the reason: their Divine Sovereign was always so careless in details… most likely, he forgot to switch the [everyone] channel back to the [wonderland] channel when writing the message.
Snap!
Mercury Trojan Horse extended her hand and began climbing towards the summit of Ruby Mountain once more!
Her tears hadn’t dried, but her eyes burned with a fierce determination, her face was calm and resolute, and her entire being exuded an all-or-nothing aura.
She knew that the Four Pillars Cult she had painstakingly built might have been for this very opportunity.
However, as Mercury Trojan Horse climbed, she suddenly remembered something-
The Wishflux Inheritance had the will of the Lord of Wishflux, but… what about other inheritances?
The core of the Specter’s Inheritance was right here!
A crimson lightning carved a fierce blood arc across the sky. Although the Black Orb immediately turned to flee upon seeing it, no matter how fast it escaped, how could it possibly evade a lightning bolt?
Sizzle!
The orb of specter’s dream, pierced by the crimson lightning, emitted the sound of an eggshell cracking, revealing the secret of the inheritance hidden within.
Abyssalith originally thought he would see a sorcerer receiving the inheritance, see the spirit treasury, or even see a deity… but what was hidden inside the Black Orb still surprised him.
It was a vast library, and an Elf dressed in a black and silver trench coat was sitting on a redwood armchair reading a book. He was handsome, gender ambiguous, with a lazy expression, embodying elegance just by sitting there.
When the Black Orb was torn open, he closed his book and looked up at the sanctuary sorcerers outside.
“Primordial Angel, that damnable lastling.”
He spoke with venom and anger, gritting his teeth as he said, “I barely foresaw the apocalyptic arrival, intending to resurrect after the apocalypse, yet this damnable lastling dragged me out prematurely… breathe, don’t be angry, it consumes too much will.”
As he stood up, all the books in the library flew out and opened automatically, each book releasing a tortured soul. As he stepped out of the Black Orb, a legion of specters numbering in the tens of thousands stood behind him, their boiling wails filling the Dreaming Celestium.
“Good evening, friends,” he said. “Or not, it’s up to you.”
“I am the Specter’s Will.”
“And you are now souls.”
“So,” the Specter’s Will clapped his hands lightly, “I require your assistance for my resurrection.”
