Wizard: Adventures in Two Worlds-Chapter 426 - 165 Bronze Body
DRIP!
Along with the dripping of azure liquid into the container, a faint scent began to diffuse through the air. Under the influence of this fragrance, even the dry grass seeds scattered on the floor and in the crevices of the stone sprouted anew. Before long, the entire room turned lush and green.
"It took over a month and resources worth at least a thousand Magic Stones, but it’s finally been concocted." Carl held a container, a wistful expression on his face. Concentrated Life Potion...
Speaking of which, with my current alchemy skills, I should be considered a First Order Alchemist, right?
It’s just that I’m specialized in only a few types of First Order potions. I guess there are no all-around Pharmacists.
"Taste it!"
He swallowed the liquid from the container. Before he could savor the taste, pure life energy surged from his stomach and intestines towards his limbs and every hair on his head.
HMPH!
Carl let out a muffled grunt. This potent life energy even made his cheeks—he, a Legendary Knight—flush red. It was somewhat akin to oxygen intoxication, leaving his whole body in a haze, his heart pounding and his blood coursing fiercely through his veins.
Focus your mind!
Concentrate!
Thunder God’s Fury!
Carl’s eyes narrowed. His rationality instantly returned, and the skin and muscles throughout his body, along with the Battle Aura within, cycled according to a specific Magic Door.
Holy Demon Transformation!
The pure life energy stimulated his flesh and provided continuous support for the cultivation of Holy Demon Transformation. A Magic Door long stagnant in progression was now advancing at a visible pace.
「One week later.」
Carl, bare-chested, moved his hands and feet in the secret chamber. His simple movements concealed unstoppable, majestic power. Now, they possessed variations and subtleties not present before.
HAH!
Sky Wolf Illusion Demon Fist!
Instantly, afterimages appeared in the room as if he had performed a cloning technique, with several Carls manifested at once. Each afterimage executed different movements: hand strikes, punches, smashes, elbow hits...
BANG!
The air vibrated intensely. As the multiple afterimages converged swiftly, Carl’s body steamed with heat, and his chest heaved rapidly.
As expected of the Holy Skill passed down from the Holy Hall, its intricacies are extremely complex. Even with my current Constitution, and the absolute control augmented by a Divine Domain Fragment, I’ve only just barely reached the threshold.
Luckily! The bloodline of the Abyssal Squid involves shadows and dreams, which adds a certain bonus to the cultivation of Sky Wolf Illusion Demon Fist. Otherwise, it would probably have taken even more time.
"Again!"
This feeling of growing strength day by day was addictive, and it even dispersed various troubles.
「Endless Sea Domain.」 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
This vast sea hid many secrets, unknown even to the Gods. In one region, enshrouded in thick fog year-round, anyone entering would lose their sense of direction. In the center of this fog, there was a massive whirlpool that seemed like the gaping maw of a monster eager to Devour everything.
WHOOSH...
Most of the whirlpool contracted inwards, but every once in a while, it would spit something out.
Sea demons!
The objects spewed from the whirlpool were the sea demons that ravaged the coastlines. With each expulsion, dozens or hundreds of sea demons would be flung in all directions, beyond the fog. They would follow a certain call towards the coastline, joining the sea demon army in a frenzied slaughter of other creatures.
「On this day.」
An arrow-shaped fishing boat sliced through the waters, appearing near the fog. A Great Knight stood at the bow, observing the thrashing sea demons around him. He ignored the agitated sea demons. With feverish eyes, he looked up to the sky and knelt on one knee.
"Respected Lord Mevia, this is the origin of the sea demons’ appearances. I believe it’s also where the Evil God is hiding."
"We’ve investigated for a full year and finally found this place."
The sky was a clear blue, with no figure or response in sight. But as his voice fell, a mass of dark clouds began to gather in the sky, spreading out rapidly. Darkness engulfed the area. Unlike ordinary clouds, under this mass of darkness, there seemed to be a might capable of obliterating everything. Seaweed withered, dead fish floated to the surface, and the sea demons swimming around gradually lost their life force. Only the wooden boat and the Great Knight aboard seemed to be protected, unaffected by the encroaching darkness. Death enveloped everything.
BOOM!
From the depths of the fog came a thunderous roar as a gigantic eyeball surfaced, fixing its gaze on the dark clouds in the sky. This enormous eye was beyond imagination. It measured hundreds of meters in diameter, its pupil as profound as a Black Hole, Devouring all light and sound around it, leaving only silence and despair. Its sclera was not the common white but an eerie dark purple, exuding an ancient and evil aura. The eye was encircled by layered eyelids. Upon closer inspection, they resembled ancient, ring-shaped mountains or city walls, their mottled patterns like ferocious scars chronicling its endless eons and battles. Especially terrifying was the eye’s seeming power to see through everything. The moment it surfaced, even the heavens and earth trembled.
"God of Death Sleep..." the giant eye’s pupil constricted, and invisible mental waves radiated in all directions, conveying, "Filthy, inferior Demigod Bloodline..."
Mei Weiya’s voluptuous, mighty form appeared in midair. Gazing down, she said, "You’re not much better. Eye Demon... After all, you’re but a wisp of the Evil God’s will. Even if you’ve borrowed some power to gain a certain level of might, you’re still at the late First Rank Late Stage, unable to break through the Moon Goddess’s restriction."
"Mei Weiya," the giant eye trembled, its mental fluctuations slowing. "We could join forces."
