Chapter 1041: Sky-piercing City!

The night was as dark as a deep lake. Although Merlin and Aruba had decided to go to Sky-piercing City, they had to wait until tomorrow to start their journey.

Ogman now stood before Merlin and Aruba. He had an intuition that both of them had great powers, far surpassing any contenders he had seen, so he had purposely come to them for guidance.

It just so happened that Merlin and Aruba could take this opportunity as a pretext to thoroughly understand this world's power system. Having this comprehensive understanding would allow them to aid the people here in breaking free from this Latitude Cosmos.

"How do you usually improve your strength?"

Merlin asked Ogman calmly.

Ogman smiled. "It's simple. I focus my thoughts and visualize the scorching sun in the sky. Then, wisps of blazing energy would slowly appear in my body, following which this power is merged into the Sun Seed, causing it to grow and flourish unceasingly. I heard that once one had reached the level of a Sanctuary Contender, the Power Seed in their bodies is practically as powerful as the actual thing they visualize."

It turned out that this was the supernatural power possessed by the people of Bluewater World. They slowly absorbed the energy of this world's sun or other celestial bodies.

Bluewater World had many overpowering celestial bodies, which together formed a Latitude Cosmos. By relying upon the absorption of the celestial bodies' power, the people here gradually strengthened themselves.

Therefore, this process was inextricably linked to the entire Latitude Cosmos. Trying to break free would be immensely difficult.

"Haha, Brother Merlin, which journey to become a Free Being was smooth sailing? If there were no mishaps, no one would successfully become a Free Being. Back when I became a Free Being, it was also due to some accident. This time, we came to Bluewater World to look for a Free Being, so we're the greatest variable. Otherwise, if this mission was easy, it won't possibly have such rich rewards."

Merlin nodded. Both of them were talking among themselves secretly and Ogman did not know what they were saying.

"I'm afraid that tomorrow we'll have to trouble you to bring us on a trip to Sky-piercing City."

Merlin calmly said to Ogman.

"This… Sky-piercing City is too far."

Ogman was somewhat unwilling. After all, Sky-piercing City was too distant from Qatar City. The journey would take an unknown amount of time.

"Naturally, this won't be a fruitless errand for you."

A smirk tugged at Merlin's lips. Thereafter, he stretched out one hand, exuding an invisible force. Although he did not unleash the Illusory World, he could still affect Bluewater World.

"Hum hum hum."

The air seemed to vibrate. Strands of scorching energy swiftly gathered in Merlin's hand in a growing amount. Ogman was incomparably shocked.

"Go!'

After Merlin spoke, this blazing energy instantly flew toward Ogman and entered his body. At the same time, Ogman felt the Power Seed in his body expanding at a rapid pace. This pace of progress was something he had not even dreamed of for it was inconceivable.

One time, two times, three times… Five times!

His Power Seed had expanded five times in a short instant. Moreover, nothing was compromised and his foundation even grew sturdier. He waved his hand and could sense the abundant energy in his body that seemed inexhaustible.

A change like this truly caused Ogman to feel as if he was in a dream. He found it difficult to imagine that Merlin's single wave could increase his capability five times over.

"So?"

Merlin narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Very well… I'll bring both of you to Sky-piercing City."

Ogman did not hesitate at all and immediately agreed.

Merlin and Aruba did not hesitate too. They left immediately, hurrying toward Sky-piercing City. On their way, both of them constantly learned more about Moorta from Ogman.

Moorta was known as a legend and was the only Sanctuary Contender in this entire world. He could practically be called the only "god" of this world.

Merlin and Aruba's expressions grew more solemn. Ever since they understood that fact, it seemed like Moorta was truly the person most likely to become a Free Being in Bluewater World.

"It looks like we must hurry even more. Otherwise, Naya might already have influenced Moorta significantly."

Currently, they could nearly confirm that Naya was surely near Moorta.

The distance between Qatar City and Sky-piercing City was far indeed. Merlin and Aruba used a full month to reach Sky-piercing City. Of course, one of the main reasons for this was that Ogman was too slow.

In this period, Merlin had even constantly helped Ogman to replenish his strength. Throughout their journey, Ogman had reaped many benefits, so he was endlessly delighted.

"Sky-piercing City should be up ahead."

Merlin followed Ogman's gaze and saw that there was a city in the distant sky. Nonetheless, it was built high up in the clouds. From a distance, it looked like a city in the air and appeared very mystical.

A trick like this was not even worth mentioning to Merlin and Aruba but for someone in a Latitude Cosmos to have such an ability was not too shabby. This Sky-piercing City was constructed by Moorta, which showed that his capability had reached an unimaginable stage.

"I'm afraid I can't get into Sky-piercing City."

Ogman shook his head. A low-level contender like him could not enter Sky-piercing City at all. Only those high-end contenders could go in. Ogman could not even fly through thin air. Otherwise, their journey would not have taken such a long time.

"Alright, since we've reached Sky-piercing City, you've done your best. This is your reward."

Merlin once again gathered a tremendous amount of the sun's energy and directly boosted Ogman's Power Seed many times over. This was forcibly stretching Ogman's limits. With his potential, he would never become such a powerful master in his lifetime but with Merlin's forceful boosting, he had already broken past his limits.

Furthermore, in the future, if Ogman was diligent and lucky, he could even go one step further and reach unlimited potential.

"Haha, thank you, honorable sirs!"

Ogman was wild with joy as his respectful gaze followed Merlin and Aruba who rose up in the sky, flying toward Sky-piercing City.

Sky-piercing City was shrouded in a layer of cloud. From a distance, it looked very hazy but once they got nearer, they exchanged a glance, both sensing the seriousness in the other's expression.

It turned out that above Sky-piercing City, they had already detected the intense will of Bluewater World. This indicated that Moorta might already be in contact with the world's will. If his strength was further increased and his opportunity arose, he might break free from the restriction of the world's will and become a Free Being.

"It's Moorta! We must hurry up and immediately go and see him."

A grave look came over Merlin's face.

"Swoosh swoosh."

Both of them swiftly flew into the clouds of Sky-piercing City. As soon as they entered, Merlin and Aruba sensed something different. Around them, the world's will seemed to be observing them at all times, giving them immense pressure.

Of course, this pressure was nothing. After all, they could easily wipe out a Latitude Cosmos. Why would they fear a mere will of the world? This meant that Moorta had contacted the world's will for a long time. His capability was immeasurable and might already be right behind a Free Being.

Sky-piercing City was very spacious and the population was sparse. After all, only those few masters could enter this place.

"Where's Moorta? I'll ask someone at random."

Just as Merlin was about to make his inquiries, two vast, enormous bursts of energy fluctuations spread out in all directions and they even contained a trace of the world's will.

"Could it be Mino challenging Sir Moorta again?"

"Mino had challenged Sir Moorta a few times but Sir Moorta is a Sanctuary Contender, the only one here. How can Mino be a match for him?"

"His previous escapes were all extreme flukes. This time, I'm afraid Mino won't be so lucky."

Merlin and Aruba exchanged a look. Naturally, they had paid attention to all these talks. They immediately thought of that mysterious person Ogman mentioned who had continuously challenged Moorta and escaped unscathed every time.

Now, it appeared that this must be "Mino".

"There's no time to waste. Let's have a look."

Merlin's heart leaped. Now was the best time to observe whether Moorta had the potential to become a Free Being.

Therefore, Aruba and Merlin quickly flew toward the center of those fluctuations. Currently, it was not just Aruba and Merlin. Many contenders who were originally in Sky-piercing City also headed toward the center of the battle.

Soon, Merlin spotted the violent battle fluctuations ahead. Waves of immense sun energy swept out in all directions just like an actual sun and viciously crashed into a thin, frail man.

This man did not look old and his energy fluctuations were very peculiar. They were not from any celestial body but still had an astonishing force.

Nonetheless, compared to the mighty power of the sun, it was lacking by much. There was even an essential gap.

Naturally, Moorta had the upper hand. He was a Sanctuary Contender and his aura could even suppress the world's will. Merlin and Aruba both felt rather incredulous upon seeing a contender like this. This was the final, key stage to becoming a Free Being.

"Naya is right behind Moorta! Indeed, Naya had reached out to Moorta before us. Now, he had already gained Moorta's trust. It'd be very difficult for us to approach Moorta now. Even if we can earn his trust, he's about to take the crucial step. Even if we join in now, after he's become a Free Being, our position in his heart wouldn't match up to Naya by far. Won't it be a waste of effort then?"

Aruba's analysis was very pertinent. If they "joined" Moorta now, they would be suppressed by Naya completely and only waste their efforts. It must be known that this mission was all about the Free Being's own decision. Naya had been by Moorta's side for so long. It was impossible that Merlin and Aruba could easily topple Naya's position by showing up now.

"If we can't select Moorta, who can we pick?"

Merlin mumbled softly. At this point, he was looking at Mino who was bitterly holding on with a determined look. This man had fallen into a complete disadvantage now. The Power Seed in his body was nearly used up.

If he did not have any techniques left, it would be difficult for him to escape death.

"Moorta, I'll come back again."

Mino clenched his jaw. Mysterious fluctuations emerged all around him. They seemed to fit well with the fluctuations of the world's will.

"Whiz."

Mino's figure appeared in thin air. He vanished before everyone's eyes as if he had never appeared.

"He's escaped again? Mino's ability is truly unusual!"

The surrounding people were still gasping in amazement but it seemed that they were no longer unfamiliar with Mino's ability. Mino had escaped using the same trick the past few times.

"Still trying to escape this time?"

Moorta who had remained calm all this while suddenly broke out into an icy smirk.

Chapter 1042: Controller's Potential

Mino disappeared without a trace at once as if he had maintained a frequency similar to the world's will and thus, able to travel through space as he wished or even merge into space.

As for Moorta, a cold smirk came over his lips now. He stretched out one huge hand, compressing the world's will in Sky-piercing City. He was already able to shape the world's will into a form of pressure. This demonstrated his strength. He truly might shatter the natural order and become a Free Being.

"Boom."

Space shattered into fragments and a figure was exposed in a flash. It was Mino.

Mino's expression shifted greatly. He had never expected that under such circumstances, Moorta was able to find him.

"Oh no. Escape!"

Mino's figure flashed once more and he was about to leave but Moorta was already prepared. The space within a range of hundreds of miles was promptly shattered. Mino had nowhere to hide. Moorta's giant hand blocked out the sky as it smashed toward Mino ruthlessly.

"Mino, it's over!"

Moorta revealed an icy smile. He was ultimately the first Sanctuary Contender of this world, the foremost contender. No matter what, Mino was no match for him.

"I still haven't gotten my revenge. I won't die, I surely won't. Moorta, I'll kill you, I'll certainly kill you…"

Mino roared furiously and an apparition appeared before his body. That was his Power Seed. Everyone in this world had a Power Seed.

However, Mino's apparition was not some overbearing celestial body but a gigantic silhouette instead. Upon seeing this massive outline, Merlin's eyes narrowed. Perhaps the people of this world did not know what this outline represented but Merlin knew very well.

"Huh?"

Merlin's eyes flashed with amazement. He had sensed what was special about Mino. However, no matter how special Mino was, under the force of Moorta's absolute strength, he had no way of surviving. He was bound to die.

Merlin and Aruba exchanged a glance. In particular, after seeing Naya behind Moorta, Merlin made a choice and said softly, "Aruba, now we still have a way. It's very risky. Are you up for it?"

Aruba smiled and replied serenely, "Is it to save this Mino? Haha, since you already have a plan, I'll surely support you. So what if it's risky? Even if we fail, we just won't be able to complete our mission. There's no huge loss. At worst, Naya would be more gleeful. However, if we succeed, we'll reap plenty of benefits…"

Aruba's gaze turned toward Mino. This was someone very persistent. It was rather challenging for him to reach where he was. If Merlin lent a helping hand now, Mino would likely never forget it as long as he lived. Moreover, if he became a Free Being, Merlin and Aruba would have made another friend for life.

After a moment of consideration, Merlin and Aruba immediately made their choice to save Mino. They would support Mino instead and no longer side with Moorta.

"Move!"

Merlin cried. Instantly, he condensed a massive palm that covered the entire ground. It viciously smacked into Moorta's palm. Moorta instantly felt an incomparable force as if the world's will was shuddering.

"Who's that?"

Moorta was already a Sanctuary Contender and dared not believe that at this moment, someone still dared to incur his wrath. Thus, he increased his strength. Sky-piercing City seemed to tremble.

"Rumble."

Two gigantic palms collided furiously. Moorta's expression changed greatly. He instantly felt a colossal, unstoppable force striking at him, leaving him with no way to defend.

"Swoosh."

Suddenly, "Teacher Naya" behind him made a move and shielded him. No matter what force was attacking him, it seemed unable to harm "Teacher Naya" at all.

Initially, Moorta was very apprehensive toward Teacher Naya. Now that he had witnessed Teacher Naya wielding such a miraculous technique, there was more to Teacher Naya than what he seemed and was unfathomable. It turned out that in this world, there was still someone stronger than a Sanctuary Contender like him.

"Go!"

Merlin saw that Naya had acted and he knew that in Bluewater World, both parties must not attack. Therefore, he immediately pulled back, brought the grievously injured Mino and left Sky-piercing City directly.

"Teacher Naya, who are they?"

Seeing that Merlin and Aruba had brought Mino away, Moorta who was still in shock and questioned Naya in a low voice. Currently, he felt that a Sanctuary Contender like him was nothing much at all.

"They? A group of contemptible clowns. They don't matter! You've seen that their strength is even greater than yours. A Sanctuary Contender counts for nothing in this world. What you must do is break away from this world and no longer be suppressed by the world's will and finally shatter the world's natural order. In that manner, you'll possess powers that are formidable to the extreme, becoming a noble existence!"

Naya narrowed his eyes and said softly.

"Oh? Shatter the world's natural order?"

Moorta was endlessly stunned. Although he always had the greatest faith in Teacher Naya who had taught him so much, it was the first time he had heard such a clear description of the path ahead of him – shattering the natural order.

Finally, Moorta knew how to move forward. It was so clear in his mind. His heart had settled on this decision and he knelt with one knee on the ground. In an incomparably respectful voice, he said, "Teacher Naya, please teach me how to shatter the world's natural order!"

"Haha, as long as you constantly gain enlightenment and do what I say, shattering the world's natural order isn't that difficult."

Naya nodded in satisfaction. He had done so much. Was it not to earn Moorta's complete trust and thus help him break the natural order and become a Free Being?

In this aspect, Moorta was smart, seizing the chance. Even though he was the number one person in this world, he was still able to lower his ego.

Maybe Moorta would become a Free Being in the future. On this point, Naya was full of confidence. To him, he was sure to win this mission.

…

There was a wide empty space. When Merlin and Aruba first brought Mino, there was not a single person around. Earlier, Merlin had used his powers and even attracted the attention of the world's will. Nonetheless, this world's will had basic judging standards. Merlin's strength was far too formidable. Just a little of his power could shatter the entire world, so the Bluewater World's will did not relentlessly attack Merlin.

Therefore, Merlin's surrounding was currently very tranquil.

In front of them, Mino wore a blank look. He still did not know what had happened. The so-called number one contender, the only Sanctuary Contender of this world – Moorta – was sent flying in one blow by the stranger before him.

Although Mino was gravely injured then, he could see everything clearly. These two mysterious men and the other enigmatic person that emerged behind Moorta – that was true power.

"Who are you? I could even feel the world's will trembling as if it was fearful of you two."

Mino's Power Seed had a unique trait indeed. It was able to sense the world's will. This was Bluewater World's will. Faced with Merlin and Aruba, of course, it would tremble. With their capabilities, even if they dished out a smidgen of their power, it was enough to tear the Bluewater World apart.

"How nice. We've saved your life. Shouldn't you thank us? Plus, without us, you won't have a chance at revenge in this life anymore."

Merlin said with a stiff smile. His words sent Mino into deep contemplation.

"Tell us, what bad blood is there between you and Moorta? You've challenged Moorta time and again. There must be something that triggered you to do so."

Merlin first wanted to understand what had happened between Mino and Moorta to better be able to help Mino.

Mino clenched his fist tightly and said in a low voice, "Moorta, he used to be one of my teachers but somehow, he learned of how special the Power Seed I condensed was and he attempted to rob my Power Seed. Haha, still, he didn't know of how magical my Power Seed was, so I escaped. However, Moorta held my family hostage and in the end, even massacred the few hundred people of my entire clan until no one was left. I must avenge them!"

Upon mentioning Moorta, Mino's hatred was evident in his eyes.

"Thud."

Suddenly, Mino fell to his knees before Merlin, saying softly, "Both of you are noble contenders, even more powerful than Moorta. I hope you can teach me and make me even stronger, giving me a chance to kill Moorta myself!"

Mino knew to seize this opportunity too. He knew that Merlin and Aruba were possibly the only ones who could assist him in this world.

"Oh? Our strength is formidable indeed but for you to get your revenge, it won't be that easy. You must carry out the revenge yourself!"

Merlin's mouth stretched into a smirk.

Mino's face brightened with joy as he said hurriedly, "As long as Moorta will be killed, I don't care what method is used."

"Haha, Aruba, let's guide this young fellow together then."

Merlin and Aruba started laughing loudly. As he looked at Mino, Merlin felt like he was staring at himself when he had still been weak. Now, he somewhat understood why Aruba liked to travel around various Latitude Cosmoses.

As a spectating visitor, it was very relaxing to watch the weak growing up and the busy ones slaving in their tasks. Some were outstanding and some were lackadaisical in their work.

Presently, Merlin felt this way. Although he had a mission, he still had the attitude of an observer in his treatment of the entire Bluewater World.

This was until he met Mino. Now, he felt that he was looking at his past, weak self.

"Mino, there might not be much time left for you. By Moorta's side, there's also a contender like us, who might even be stronger than us. He's guiding Moorta as well so your time is very limited too."

Merlin narrated everything to Mino in detail. These matters must be told to Mino too.

"Come on then. Activate your Power Seed and let us take a closer look at what's so magical about it."

Merlin and Aruba became excited once more. They had decided to help Mino because of Mino's Power Seed, which was completely different from the Power Seed of the average person in this world. It had immense potential.

"Boom."

At last, Mino unleashed his Power Seed completely. Instantly, an apparition of the world emerged once again before the eyes of Merlin and Aruba. This was Bluewater World's silhouette.

"This… This is the world's outline?"

Aruba and Merlin took in deep breaths and they looked rather excited. This was the outline of the world. If Mino truly succeeded, he would not be a mere Free Being but rather… A Controller!

Controller – maybe this was something not even Sir Tyron had noticed. The Bluewater World had the chance to produce a Free Being and a Controller. This was somewhat inconceivable, even outrageous.

Nonetheless, a Latitude Cosmos could not possibly give birth to a Free Being and a Controller at the same time. After all, this would be contradictory. Free Beings had to shatter the natural order to become Free Beings.

As for Controllers, they must control the world's natural order. If the Free Being had shattered the natural order, how could the Controller control the natural order? Therefore, if both Moorta and Mino progressed ceaselessly, only one of them could succeed.

"Phew…"

After a long moment, Merlin heaved a long sigh. Beside him, Aruba laughed and said, "Haha, Brother Merlin, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you this time. This young fellow has the potential to become a Controller. You're a bona fide Controller, so having you instruct him would be most fitting."

"What's a Controller? Free Being?"

Mino was curious. From what Aruba had said, Mino had heard many unfamiliar words that he had never heard before at all.

"Controllers and Free Beings – it's very simple. You must have a slight understanding of this world? This is a colossal Latitude Cosmos and the world's will takes care and manages everything using the world's natural order. A Free Being is one who had broken the natural order and transcended the Latitude Cosmos while a Controller would replace the world's will to control the world. Your Power Seed is an outline of the entire world and is tightly linked to the Bluewater World. This is miraculous but it'll also help you get the chance to become a mighty Controller!"

Merlin spoke clearly and Mino understood. After all, his Power Seed was the outline of the entire Bluewater World. He was often in contact with the world's will and naturally knew what replacing the world's will would entail.

At that point, he would become the sole master of an entire world. Moorta, being a mere Sanctuary Contender, was still under a world, totally unable to contend against an entire world.

At that point, forget about one Moorta. Even ten Moortas would be useless against him.

Chapter 1043: A Millennium

Becoming a Controller was not that easy. Back then, Merlin had gone through many hardships before finally, under coincidental circumstances, become a Controller.

However, there was no way to replicate a coincidence like that. Even if Mino returned to the Almighty Beast World, he could not possibly replicate Merlin's miracle. Therefore, each Controller had a unique point.

Mino's unique point was the Power Seed he had condensed, which was the Bluewater World's outline. There was a special connection between him and the Bluewater World.

"Mino, how did you condense your Power Seed?"

Merlin was now more concerned about Mino's Power Seed. This was related to how Mino would control the Bluewater World's will, replace it and become a Controller.

Mino carefully recalled what happened and said softly, "Since young, I've always had a very special ability which is to see things that ordinary people can't see. Like the sun – I could vaguely see the entire body of the sun. Therefore, when I consolidated the Power Seed, the strongest celestial body was not the sun but it's the entire world. I could vaguely see the outline of this world and was deeply stunned by it. Thus, I tried condensing my Power Seed in the form of the world's outline. This was a far-fetched hope but unexpectedly, I succeeded. After condensing the Power Seed, my strength was great indeed and I've obtained mystical powers. I could merge with the space of this world and even the world's will was intimate with me."

Upon listening to Mino's explanation, Merlin nodded. Each Controller was shaped by accidents and Mino already had his first accident by now – he was already connected to the entire world's will long ago.

Mino's special talent allowed him to take the first step. Even so, this was far from being enough. Even if Mino continued like this, it would be impossible for him to become a Controller.

"Mino, to become a Controller, you must devour the world's will. How do you think your current strength compared to the entire world?"

Merlin asked calmly.

Mino did not even have to think before he replied, "Even if my strength is enhanced a hundred or a thousand times over, I'm still lacking by far compared to the world. There's no basis of comparison at all."

That was right. Mino was very honest. His current strength, even if enhanced a hundred or a thousand times over, was insignificant compared to the entire Bluewater World. Relying on this bit of power to devour Bluewater World and replace its will was nothing more than a pipe dream.

"What must I do?"

Mino asked. Now, Merlin was somewhat stumped. Based on Merlin's plan, to become a Controller, one's own capability must be sufficiently formidable.

In the past, Merlin had to deal with materializing the Illusory World as reality. This was very challenging. However, for Mino, due to his special link to the Bluewater World, he could devour the world's will directly when his strength was great enough. Therefore, he was much more fortunate than Merlin.

Nonetheless, the accumulation of strength required time. In this respect, Merlin and Aruba could lend a hand but there was still no guarantee.

"This is a race against time. Mino, I hope you're faster than Moorta. Otherwise, if he shatters the natural order first, you'll lose your chance."

Presently, Merlin had no other option but to race against time. This needed an accumulation over a lengthy period. Merlin could assist Mino and even be extremely helpful but even he could not predict whether they would ultimately succeed.

In particular, there was Moorta who was similarly progressing at a rapid pace with Naya's assistance.

"Aruba, let's do everything we can to help Mino improve his Power Seed."

Aruba nodded. Thus, Merlin began to mobilize the Illusory World in his body to forcefully plunder the power of the Bluewater World. He even let Mino enter his Illusory World to experience this entire world.

Under such circumstances, Mino's progress was swift as well. He gradually learned of a Controller's might and the difference between a Controller and a Free Being. What he had to do now was nothing more than strengthening the Power Seed in his body continuously.

Time passed quickly. In ten short years, Mino had already reached a stage that many people could not even hope for in their lifetime – Sanctuary!

Sanctuary – this was an indicator that the Power Seed had started to make contact with the world's will, even contend against it slightly. It was just like Moorta back then, who had so much power of the world's will in Sky-piercing City.

Of course, due to Mino's unique Power Seed and his special connection to the Bluewater World, Mino as a Sanctuary Contender was far stronger than most Sanctuary Contenders.

His Power Seed was powerful enough but to go against the entire Bluewater World, there was still a huge disparity. He still must constantly and diligently accumulate his strength.

Ten years, twenty years, fifty years, a century, five centuries…

Merlin and Aruba had stayed in the Bluewater World for over a millennium. To Aruba, maybe a millennium was merely the blink of an eye. Whenever he casually visited a Latitude Cosmos, time would be calculated with ten millennia as a unit.

However, to Merlin, a millennium was a very long time.

"Phew…"

Merlin and Aruba watched Mino who was below the peak. Currently, he was sitting cross-legged on a large stone. There was a vague, absolute force field forming over his body and the terrifying apparition of the world was circling him.

This was the result of Mino's diligent work over a thousand years. He currently maintained a caved-in void around himself at all times. If he unleashed his full strength, saying that space over ten thousand miles would collapse would not be exaggerating. His powers had grown so fast that there was no way to curb him completely.

"Merlin, what do you think of Mino now? Can he contend against the Bluewater World's will?"

Aruba asked with a laugh.

Merlin's manner was not so relaxed. He looked up at the sky. There, he sensed a trace of uneasiness from the world's will.

"Aruba, have you sensed that the Bluewater World's will feels uneasy? As the world's will, it knows more about everything that happens in this world than we do."

Merlin said softly.

"The world's will is uneasy? I didn't sense that. Merlin, do you mean Moorta and Naya?"

Aruba immediately thought of Moorta and Naya. After all, during the past thousand years, Naya and Moorta had been too quiet. There was no news of them as if they had vanished completely.

However, Aruba and Merlin knew that Naya and Moorta would not possibly disappear. Naya was still a Minor Cosmos Absolute Being. Nurturing Moorta whose qualifications were excellent in the first place would be a piece of cake.

Therefore, in the past millennium, Naya surely had been sparing no effort in helping Moorta to accumulate power that could shatter the Bluewater World's natural order. Now, Merlin was rather worried that Moorta had gathered enough strength, which was why Bluewater World's will would feel vaguely uneasy.

"That may be so. Naya can't possibly have done nothing all this while. Merlin, I think we must quick. This fellow, Mino – his talent isn't bad and in a millennium, he's almost there in terms of contending against this world's will but it'd still be very difficult for him to devour the world's will."

Although Aruba was not a Controller, he knew how formidable a complete Latitude Cosmos' will could be. If it was not for Mino's special connection to this world's will, then no matter what, he could not possibly devour Bluewater World's will. After all, even a Minor Cosmos Absolute Being like Merlin could not possibly devour a complete Latitude Cosmos' will.

"Rumble."

At this point, the sky shuddered. Everyone could distinctly feel it. At the same time, the Bluewater World's sky began to crumble inch by inch.

"Oh no, Moorta is shattering the world's natural order!"

Merlin and Aruba exchanged a glance, their expressions changing greatly.

Chapter 1044: The Moment of Utmost Fairness!

Moorta was shattering the world's natural order. When Merlin and Aruba saw this scene, they did not have a single doubt. After all, they were a Free Being and a Controller, so they were very familiar with the Latitude Cosmos.

"Merlin, what do we do now?"

Aruba started to get anxious. Even if they failed this mission, it would not affect them much but no matter what, they had spent over a millennium in the Bluewater World. Allowing Naya to succeed just like that would not sit well with them.

Merlin's face was gloomy and he cast a glance at Mino who was on the ground. At last, he gritted his teeth. "What else can we do? We can only stake everything in one blow. We mustn't let Naya get away with this so easily. Quick, wake Mino up!"

Merlin and Aruba both swatted Mino awake and the shadow of the world's apparition surrounding him vanished as well. When Mino saw the abrupt changes in the sky, a scary thought flashed across his mind and his expression dropped.

"Is Moorta becoming a Free Being?"

When he saw Merlin and Aruba nodding, Mino's heart grew heavier. Today, he was no longer ignorant like he was before. He knew very well what it meant for Moorta to begin breaking free of the natural order and becoming a Free Being. It meant that he would never become a Controller. As Moorta would break the natural order, the source of his power, the natural order that took the form of the world, would even lose its strength completely. He would become an ordinary man.

To Mino who was determined to take his revenge and settle the grudge, this was a devastating blow. Nonetheless, Mino was clear about the disparity between him and Moorta. He was still a long way from reaching the point of becoming a Controller.

If he tried to devour the world's will now to replace it and become the Controller of the Bluewater World, his odds of success were not even ten percent. He could not possibly succeed.

However, Mino was completely unwilling to just sit around, waiting to be defeated.

"Teacher Merlin, I can't accept this!"

Mino's eyes were bloodshot. He could not accept this. A thousand years' worth of slow accumulation was turned into a mirage. He did not even have a chance to put up a fight.

Merlin gazed at Mino calmly. This ordinary person of the Bluewater World had accompanied Merlin for a millennium. Moreover, Mino had always treated Merlin as his teacher, so Merlin had begun to feel a certain affection for Mino. He could sense the bitter internal struggle in Mino now. He was discontented. A thousand years' of hard work was wasted.

"No, Mino. It's not that you have no chance at all. It's just that it'd be very dangerous. A small mistake and you'll die directly. Not even I can save you."

After a long moment, Merlin spoke slowly.

Mino was slightly taken aback but then erupted with wild delight, laughing loudly. "Haha, what is mere death? If Moorta truly succeeds in shattering the natural order, the entire Bluewater World would fall to pieces. I'll lose my power too. At that point, I might as well be dead. Plus, for Moorta then, killing me would be a walk in the park. What life is there left for me?"

Merlin nodded. Mino's emotions were calm and stable. Since that was the case, Merlin no longer kept Mino guessing and said, "This method is very simple. Moorta wants to become a Free Being, right? Thus, his first step is surely to break the world's natural order. Well, the Bluewater World's will wouldn't allow anyone to shatter its natural order.

"Therefore, this will be the battle between Moorta and the entire Bluewater World. Moorta might gain the upper hand and slowly break apart the world's natural order. At that point, the world's will would crumble bit by bit. This is the key moment, Mino. What you need to do is simple. You must seize the moment when the Bluewater World's natural order is crumbling bit by bit and the strength of its will is dwindling slowly. Then, you must devour the Bluewater World in one gulp.

"Perhaps you're racing against Moorta. Whether it's he who first shatter the natural order and become a Free Being or you who first devour the Bluewater World's will become the Bluewater World's Controller in one move thus crushing Moorta – no one can tell. This is the decisive battle between the both of you. In a sense, both of you are on equal ground, fighting each other with your destinies. Whoever loses will be consigned to eternal defeat!"

This was Merlin's plan. It was ruthless indeed. One wrong move and Mino would be trapped in his fate forever.

After Merlin spoke, even Aruba fell into a deep silence. He noticed the ruthlessness of this plan. There was no leeway at all. It was success or death.

"Haha, good, good. Thank you, Teacher. This plan is excellent. I've always wanted a battle on equal ground with Moorta. Today, I have such a good chance. How can I let it slip past me? If he doesn't die, then I will. This is very fair!"

After Mino heard what Merlin's plan was, he burst out in joyful laughter. From his perspective, this plan was very fair. His hard work over a millennium had not gone to waste. It was all for this equal and evenly matched fight with Moorta.

Merlin nodded wordlessly to himself. They were burning their boats here. There would be no room for retreat.

"Mino, get yourself ready then. We'll start out in a bit."

Merlin said calmly. He knew that Mino wanted to make offerings to his family.

After Mino bowed respectfully to Merlin, he turned to leave. With his current capability, traveling through space was a child's play.

After Mino had left, Aruba frowned and said, "Brother Merlin, even if Mino failed, as long as you're willing, you could still keep him in your Minor Cosmos. He won't die then."

Merlin nodded. Aruba knew very well that even if Moorta became a Free Being, as long as Merlin was willing to protect Mino, there would not be any problem.

"If we don't do this, we might have no way of unleashing Mino's last bit of potential. He had waited for so long. A thousand years of hard work for today's chance of a fair battle with Moorta. How can he let it pass him by? Only by embracing a literal do-or-die stance, would Mino have the chance to succeed. Which Controller had not gone through countless life-and-death encounters to finally become a Controller? This is the biggest test Mino will face. If he failed in the end, I'll keep him in my Illusory World, allowing him to live a peaceful life…"

It was not that Merlin did not care for Mino. He had a plan to prevent Mino from dying but he must not divulge this to Mino at this moment.

Aruba nodded. He understood too. Merlin wanted to stimulate all of Mino's potential and so he must do this. They could not allow Mino to cling to any hope of survival.

They waited for three consecutive days. Mino finally returned. After making offerings to his loved ones, he appeared much calmer overall. Nonetheless, anyone could tell that beneath his tranquil exterior, there was hidden a steely resolve!

"Alright, let's go. Moorta is almost about to break the natural order."

After Merlin spoke, he brought Mino and Aruba with him and traveled through space, heading toward the place where the changes were most intense.

…

"Hoo…"

A huge wind snarled. Above a barren wilderness, Moorta was standing in the air. Around him were the endless, ferocious gale and massive sweeps of the terrifying world's will.

Nonetheless, Moorta appeared very calm. There was no trace of energy around him but the world's will seemed to feel threatened somehow. It ceaselessly rained down various forces upon Moorta to deal with him but there was little to no effect.

Beside Moorta stood an enigmatic man. It was Naya. As he watched Moorta, a satisfied smile splayed across his face and he said serenely, "Alright, Moorta, nearly there. You can shatter the natural order now. The Bluewater World's will is helpless against you!"

Naya appeared to be brimming with confidence. After a millennium of guidance from him, today, Moorta was equipped with almost all the traits of a Free Being.

Currently, not even the Bluewater World's will could do anything to Moorta. What else could stop him?

Maybe Merlin and Aruba could but with Naya around, Merlin and Aruba would not dare to attack. Otherwise, if they wrecked this Latitude Cosmos, both sides would be penalized by Sir Tyron.

"Very well!"

Moorta appeared excited as well. He looked up and glanced at the sky that was filled with the whirling wind, then thrust a fist upward.

"Boom."

The entire space shuddered. Bursts of the natural order cast down like chains. This was not the power of mountains and rivers but a force even greater than them.

This was because each beam of the natural order's power represented the fundamental strength of the Bluewater World. The power of the entire world was gathered and sent crashing down viciously upon Moorta.

"Haha, just in time! Shatter to pieces then…."

Moorta chortled loudly, his laughter ringing in all directions. His two fists contained fearsome strength and transformed into countless shadows that struck in the air. Each shadow fist caused the air to vibrate.

A "whimpering" sound came from the wind as if the sky was weeping. This was the limit of the force which the Bluewater World could bear and Moorta's strength had exceeded that limit.

"Crack."

Finally, a sharp crack sounded from the air. Whether it was Naya or Moorta, they both heard this clear sound and a look of delight bloomed over their faces.

This was the sound of the natural order shattering, meaning that the Bluewater World's most powerful natural order was pummeled by Moorta until it started to gradually crumble and disintegrate.

Once all of the natural order's power had collapsed and disintegrated, the entire world would be unable to restrain Moorta any longer. He would become a genuine Free Being, a mighty existence among countless Latitude Cosmoses, transcending the Latitude Cosmos.

"Swish swish swish."

At this point, in the frenzied sky, three figures appeared dimly. The surrounding chaos of the gale did not seem to affect them at all.

"You've arrived too late!"

Naya narrowed his eyes. When he saw these three figures, his voice revealed a sense of blitheness. From his point of view, Merlin and the rest had come too late. By now, Moorta was highly accomplished in his power. No one could stop him from becoming a Free Being.

"Is that so?"

Merlin did not look at Naya but kept staring at Moorta. From his acute observation, he saw that the Bluewater World's natural order was collapsing too rapidly. Even its will was swiftly weakening.

Just as the Bluewater World was weakened to its limit and could collapse at any time, Merlin yelled, "Now's the time! Mino, go, devour the world's will as much as you like. From this moment, you don't have much time left but you and Moorta are at least on the same starting line. You're in an equal fight against him!"

Indeed, the current Mino's eyes were bloodshot and his body exuded a matchless, terrifying presence. He was wildly devouring the Bluewater World's will. He was never on the same starting line with Moorta and even when he did his best he could not compare to Moorta.

However, Mino felt that this was the moment of utmost fairness!

Chapter 1045: The Final Victor!

"Rumble."

Space kept splintering apart ceaselessly. The Bluewater World's will started to become anxious and frantically summoned all of its natural order's power to oppose Moorta.

Nonetheless, Moorta had attained great powers. Now, no one could stop him. Thus, each time he attacked, he was able to swiftly smash the natural order's power. The entire Bluewater World was scattered and smashed, on the brink of collapse.

However, no one noticed that Mino had not moved at all through all this as if he had disappeared. Nonetheless, Merlin knew that Mino was making a final effort, wildly devouring the Bluewater World's will that was gradually crumbling. He was trying to replace the Bluewater World's will and quickly become a Controller before Moorta could destroy it.

Moorta would not be comparable to Mino by far if Mino controlled the entire Bluewater World. It was just that all these were still unknown factors. From the looks of it, there was not much hope.

It appeared that Moorta's force was growing stronger as he shattered the last of the natural order, causing the full collapse of the Bluewater World. Moorta becoming a Free Being seemed to be inevitable, something no one could prevent.

At this point, Naya finally laughed out loud and said calmly, "Merlin, Aruba, you're ultimately too late. Moorta will become a Free Being and no one can stop this!"

Naya's tone revealed his robust confidence. During this mission, he had not even taken Merlin and Aruba seriously.

"Is that so? Who can tell before the final moment?"

Merlin's expression was as serene as always but his eyes were slightly narrowed. Deep inside, he was not as calm as he appeared.

He had stayed in the Bluewater World for over a millennium and expended a lot of effort. Naturally, he would not be happy to suffer defeat. Thus, he was still anticipating the final miracle!

Moreover, this miracle was occurring now!

"Boom."

Suddenly, the entire space shuddered violently and a hole was almost ripped in the sky. The mountains and rivers on the ground began to fall apart. However, only Moorta felt that something was wrong. Despite his immense strength, the Bluewater World should not be collapsing so fast.

"Something's wrong."

Moorta's face shifted slightly. He turned his focus toward Mino. This person who seemed to him no more than an ant, easily pulverized, was now exhibiting a fearsome aura.

This aura caused Moorta to feel vaguely suffocated as if he was faced with a terrifying existence ten times, a hundred times greater than the natural order's power.

"What's going on?"

Moorta was unclear about what was happening. Even so, Merlin, down below, knew all this very well. He had observed the expression of incomparable anguish on Mino's face but could distinctly feel that the Bluewater World's will was swiftly vanishing.

A large portion of this will was wrecked by Moorta but an equivalent portion was devoured by Mino. Therefore, it looked as if Mino was helping Moorta to destroy the Bluewater World.

Naya was a Controller too. The Bluewater World's will continued deteriorating even as Moorta had stopped his attack on the natural order. The Bluewater World's will was still disappearing at a terrifying speed. Thus, would Naya still not understand what Mino was doing?

"You're devouring the world's will? You… You both are letting him replace the Bluewater World's will and become a Controller?"

Naya's face revealed his alarm for the first time. He had never thought that Merlin and Aruba would be this insane. Initially, the objective of this mission was for the Bluewater World to produce a Free Being. The mission would then be completed.

However, if Bluewater World produced a Controller, Sir Tyron was sure to be overjoyed. After all, a Controller was much stronger than a Free Being. It was just that a Controller was more difficult to produce than a Free Being. In general, a myriad of Latitude Regions could only possibly produce one.

Even so, Naya could not bring himself to feel any joy now because a Latitude Cosmos could not produce a Free Being and a Controller at the same time. A Free Being must destroy the world's natural order, causing the collapse of the Latitude Cosmos. Conversely, a Controller must replace the world wholly and control a Latitude Cosmos. Both of these were natural antithesis of each other.

Therefore, a Latitude Cosmos could only give birth to one Controller or one Free Being. If Mino succeeded, he would become a Controller. At that point, naturally, Moorta would fail.

Once Moorta failed, Naya would likewise suffer a crushing defeat in this mission!

"Moorta, quick, use all of your strength to break this world and you'll become a Free Being! Otherwise, it'd be too late…"

Naya immediately yelled furiously to Moorta who was in the sky, revealing a trace of panic. A millennium might not be much to him but if he failed at the hands of Merlin and Aruba, it would be something he would never let go.

Moorta had sensed the crisis. Although he did not know what Mino was doing, he knew that the current situation did not look too good.

Therefore, Moorta mustered all his terrifying strength, practically causing the Bluewater World's will to tremble. There was only a little bit left of the current Bluewater World's will.

"Devour! I'll replace the world's will, control Bluewater World, and become a Controller!"

Mino cried out in his heart and his expression turned fierce. Of course, he could sense the power that Moorta was gradually gathering. This fearsome power was enough to completely shatter the remaining natural order of the Bluewater World. At that point, no one would have any way of stopping Moorta from becoming a Free Being.

Therefore, Mino must now take a risk, exhausting all his possibilities to become a Controller first and thoroughly control the Bluewater World.

"Break for me!"

Moorta wore a sinister look as well as he assembled all his strength and exploded in an unparalleled attack. This would be his final strike. Such fearsome strength was enough to smash the final strand of the natural order.

"Rumble."

Accompanied by a thunderous explosion, the entire Bluewater World started to sway and shake. Space was shattered to pieces everywhere and all mountains and rivers crumbled. The entire world seemed to be ending.

A smirk finally flitted over Moorta's lips. He had finally defeated all of the natural order's power. He could finally become an even stronger Free Being, transcending the Latitude Cosmos!

Nonetheless, his smile did not last long because he had discovered that the initially shattered space gradually halted while those mountains, rivers, and the fissured earth gradually stabilized as well. All these did not collapse completely.

"This…"

Moorta's heart leaped in alarm. He did not know why this would happen. After taking such a fearsome blow from him, the Bluewater World should have been crushed to smithereens and crumbled completely. It should not look like this. Although the entire world still looked cracked and broken, it was very sturdy and there was even a subtle life force concealed within.

"Hoo…"

The gale in the sky stopped all at once too. Moorta saw that it did not vanish but was solidified. Everything in his surroundings had solidified, resuming their initial appearance.

Mino, who was at one side now wore a tranquil expression but he was exuding a power that caused Moorta to become scared witless. It was as if the current Mino was an avatar of the world and no force would be able to harm him.

"Buzz."

Suddenly, Mino opened his eyes. Currently, everything around him seemed to come alive. His eyes had looked bewildered and lost at first but now they were matchless abstruse.

"So, this is a Controller…"

Mino's voice sounded calm as it rang out in everyone's ears.

"Restore!"

Mino eyed the wrecked mountains and earth and pointed lightly with a breezy gesture that did not appear special at all. His pointing mobilized the entire world. The landscape and the earth were rapidly restored at a visible pace. A tremendous will descended, causing one to feel dread in the depths of their heart.

"Controller?"

Naya's face turned pale as his eyes fixed steadily upon Mino in the sky. This power was too familiar. Only a Controller could have such an influence on a Latitude Cosmos. Without them realizing it, Mino had completely replaced the Bluewater World's will, controlled Bluewater World, and become a Controller!

"Haha, a Controller. Brother Merlin, we've done it. That young fellow Mino is lucky indeed…"

Aruba chortled. A Controller… He was able to witness the evolution of a Controller over a millennium.

"A Controller, you… How did you become a Controller?"

Naturally, Moorta was the most surprised. Initially, he had reached the critical point of becoming a Free Being. He only had to shatter the world's natural order to finally evolve into a Free Being.

If Mino had not been here, Moorta would become a Free Being without any issues. It was just a shame that in this tiny Bluewater World, not only was Moorta born but Mino was born as well.

Moreover, Mino used the world's outline as his Power Seed. He was very lucky. Even if another Controller arrived, they would be unable to replicate this sort of luck. After all, Mino only managed to have the world's outline as his Power Seed helped him through various opportunities and extreme coincidences.

All this, along with Merlin's bold planning, ultimately led to Mino taking the risk and swallowing the world's will, thus succeeding in becoming a noble Controller.

Moorta was stupefied. Although he had not become a Free Being, he had learned quite an amount of "secret information" from Naya. He knew that Naya was a great Controller, an even stronger existence than Free Beings.

However, Mino was now a Controller, making Moorta feel like everything was as surreal as a dream.

Mino was now very tranquil and he looked at Moorta quietly. Slowly, he said, "Moorta, I still have to thank you. Without your strength that caused the world's will to collapse, I'll have no way of devouring the will, much less become a Controller successfully! Still, our fate has been tangled for so many years and there should be a conclusion now."

Mino's expression was very calm and did not even carry a hint of murderous intention. He had become a Controller. Naturally, he felt different from the rest. He had completely surpassed Moorta and held a different status from the others in the Latitude Cosmos.

A status like this was like an immense moat that could not be crossed over. The hostility of the past seemed to count for nothing now. If Mino was willing, he could even use the power of the Bluewater World to resurrect all of his relatives who had died.

This was because he was the sole Controller of this Latitude Cosmos. A single thought from him could accomplish many things that were unimaginable to most people. Even the current Moorta who could shatter the natural order was not a match for Mino.

However, when Moorta sensed Mino's calm gaze on him, he appeared to become rather deranged. Moorta laughed wildly. "Haha, Mino. Back then, I've killed your relatives myself. Today, you'll end up the same. If I want to kill you, who can stop me? Haha, die then…"

Moorta's deranged voice could not conceal his intense fear but he had no choice now. He could only put up a fight as best as he could. He had never thought that one day he would face a fatal crisis as well.

Even so, Mino shook his head. He no longer bore any hatred toward Moorta. However, a conclusion was required between both of them. This conclusion had already been determined long ago when Mino became a Controller.

"Subdue!"

Mino cried out. Instantly, an incomparable force, which was ten times, a hundred times more overpowering than the previous power of the natural order, entrapped Moorta like a prison that restrained him firmly.

No matter how Moorta struggled, it was useless. He had no way of breaking out of the prison. At this moment, Moorta was truly frightened. The previous ant-like Mino had now grown to a stage he must look up to.

"How's this possible?"

Moorta mumbled softly, his eyes filled with a frenetic look. In his panic, he noticed Naya below and his gaze seemed to burn with a trace of hope once more. Although he did not know how powerful Naya was, he knew that the only one who could rescue him now was Naya.

"Teacher Naya, save me!"

Moorta pleaded loudly but Naya did not intend to do anything. Conversely, he said in a low, vicious voice, "You're rubbish indeed, wasting a thousand years of my nurturing!"

Naya's words came as a sudden shock. Even though Mino had already controlled the Bluewater World and was as lofty as a god, he felt a shudder in his heart. He seemed to detect that strength, terrifying to the extreme, in Naya's body. Despite having become a Controller who controlled the Bluewater World, Mino was no match for Naya.

It was not just Naya but Aruba and his Teacher Merlin as well. Currently, he was a Controller and all of them were in the Bluewater World. He could feel the fearsome power contained in all of their bodies. They surpassed him by far and could easily destroy his Latitude Cosmos.

Nevertheless, he had no intention of sparing Moorta. Thus, with his mental command, terrifying power descended upon Moorta directly. Moorta wailed wretchedly and his body was crushed to smithereens in an instant. He was dead.

This was the conclusion. Both of them were tangled together for countless years. Today, there was finally a conclusion. Mino had become the final victor!

Chapter 1046: Sudden Change!

Moorta died, and everything quieted down. Under Mino's control, the Bluewater World that had been on the verge of collapse began to use the power of the Latitude Cosmos to slowly recover.

A Latitude Cosmos with a Controller was many times stronger than a Latitude Cosmos without one. As long as the world did not completely collapse, it would be very easy to recover.

However, Mino did not relax his vigilance. His eyes remained fixed on Naya. With the senses that he had now gained as a Controller, he naturally knew that Naya was the most powerful. Even if Naya only used a portion of his force, it was far from something that Mino could compete with.

After a long while, Naya said slowly, "Aruba, Merlin, you've won this time! I won't take what is merely a single mission to heart. However, once you leave the Polo Region, you should be more careful. It'll be very dangerous outside."

Although Naya's tone was very light, he made no effort to conceal his chilling killing intent, letting Merlin and Aruba clearly sense that Naya truly wanted to kill them now. He had been determined to win. Of course, he would not care about the success or failure of a mission, but this mission was related to a Latitude Cosmos. It was a mission very important to any Controller, but now, it had been taken away by Merlin and Aruba. Naturally, he felt furious.

"Haha, although the outside is dangerous, we're not afraid. Naya, you don't have to threaten us. Even if you don't seek us out in the future, we will seek you out!"

Aruba laughed, not taking Naya's warning to heart. His two friends had died by Naya's hands, so his heart was naturally full of killing intent towards Naya.

Naya's eyes narrowed as his killing intent grew. However, thinking of Tyron's warning, he did not dare to make a move here. Thus, he only snorted coldly before turning and leaving the Bluewater World.

"Phew…"

When Naya completely left the Bluewater World, Mino breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "That was terrifying. That Naya seemed to have unlimited power, and just the aura he was emitting seemed to be suffocating me. Who the hell is he?"

Naya had become a Controller and was now infinitely more powerful than before. However, it was only now that he felt how truly terrifying Naya was, and he grew slightly worried.

Merlin glanced at Mino and said in a low voice, "Naya is the strongest of the Controllers, and the Absolute Being of a Minor Cosmos. He's stronger than I am. You'll gradually find out later. Now, you should keep this world first."

Merlin was referring to the Bluewater World. Currently, the Bluewater World was no longer a masterless Latitude Cosmos. It was controlled by Mino, who could keep it in his body.

Mino nodded, and Aruba and Merlin flew away. They watched from afar as the vast Bluewater World began to shrink little by little under Mino's will, eventually disappearing completely and being absorbed by Mino.

Mino had become a real Controller and had a powerful Latitude Cosmos in his body. He went with Merlin and Aruba and looked around curiously. It was the first time he had left the Latitude Cosmos and seen what was beyond it.

"So many Latitude Cosmoses…"

Mino sighed with emotion. There were many Latitude Cosmoses that were not inferior to the Bluewater World.

As Mino had just become a Controller, he did not know some general knowledge of Controllers, so Merlin explained about everything. However, they had to return to the Central Region Major Cosmos as soon as possible. Naya would not dare to do anything before handing back the mission.

"Let's go, Mino. We'll take you to the Central Region Major Cosmos. You'll slowly understand your situation then."

Then, Merlin and Aruba swiftly left the Polo Region, along with Mino.

The entire Polo Region was extremely large, about the same size as Merlin and Aruba's Ruba Region. Therefore, the three flew for some time before they reached the end of the Polo Region. Just when they were about to leave, they suddenly felt an extraordinary force.

"Rumble."

A huge noise spread across the Polo Region. Merlin and Aruba glanced at each other and immediately widened their eyes, disbelief coloring their faces.

This was the Latitude Region that Sir Tyron cared the most about. No one would dare to do anything to it, but now, they saw with their own eyes that a black hole was devouring Latitude Cosmos after Latitude Cosmos.

However, upon closer inspection, it was not a black hole, but the incomparably huge head of a colossal beast.

Merlin was in the Almighty Beast World before and had seen many large beasts, but none of them were comparable to the behemoth in front of them. This huge beast was so massive that it was almost impossible to see its body clearly. Even the vast Latitude Cosmoses looked insignificantly small.

Just the size of this beast sent a terrifying aura. Merlin and Aruba did not even entertain the thought of fighting it. How could an existence that could easily devour Latitude Cosmoses be dealt with easily?

"What is that?"

Merlin looked at the huge beast in shock. It was the first time he had seen such a terrifying beast, and his heart was stunned. Therefore, he immediately looked towards Aruba.

As for Aruba, his initially stunned expression slowly turned into fear, and he said anxiously, "Brother Merlin, go. We have to leave now. Damn it, how did a Void Beast get here?"

"Void Beast?"

Merlin was surprised. It was the first time he had heard such a name. However, seeing Aruba's expression, he also grew anxious. He knew that they had to leave.

"Let's go, we'll speak after leaving here."

The Void Beast was still a distance away, but if they continued to stay here, it would be hard to say. A beast like that was not something they could deal with. It might be a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being or even a Major Cosmos Absolute Being.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh."

The three people went as fast as they could and frantically fled the Polo Region. Even after they escaped, they could still sense the Polo Region being destroyed.

"The Polo Region is finished…"

After fleeing an unknown distance away from the Polo Region and feeling safe, Merlin and the others finally stopped. Looking at the direction of the Polo Region, Aruba's face showed a trace of sadness.

"The Polo Region is finished?"

Merlin was shocked. That beast was so terrifying that it could destroy a Latitude Region? It was a Latitude Region that housed tens of thousands of Latitude Cosmoses!

Seeing Merlin's stunned expression, Aruba nodded with a wry smile and said, "Yes, the Polo Region is finished. There'll be no more Polo Region in the future. When a Void Beast appears, there will be endless destruction, and nothing else. A Void Beast can swallow dozens of Latitude Regions. They are the true Root of Destruction…"

Even now, Aruba was still concerned.

"Root of Destruction? It can devour dozens of Latitude Regions? Aruba, what exactly is a Void Beast?"

Merlin's expression gradually became solemn. He had never heard of such a terrifying beast before.

Aruba explained in a heavy voice, "The Void Beasts are the Root of Destruction. No matter the world, there is a positive and a negative, light and dark. These opposites complement each other. Similarly, as the Latitude Cosmoses are slowly born and their numbers increase, the Void Beasts appear."

"A Void Beast's body seems to be corporeal, but it doesn't exist. No power can harm it, even the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings, who possess terrifying power, can barely hurt them. Originally, the Void Beasts never appeared, and they're very rare. I would never have thought one would appear in the Polo Region. After all, the Polo Region is dozens of Latitude Regions away from the Void Sea. Were those Latitude Regions all swallowed by the Void Beast?"

After hearing Aruba's explanation, Merlin gradually understood the horror of the Void Beasts. These Void Beasts were small in number and could devour Latitude Cosmoses. They were the natural enemy of Controllers and Free Beings, positives and negatives.

An appropriate antithesis was good, as if one side grew too strong, it would only bring destruction. A Void Beast could travel such a long distance and arrive at the Polo Region from the Void Sea, but how did none of the Latitude Regions in between notice? If they had noticed but still did nothing, then there was only one explanation. Something major has happened!

"Something big might have happened while we were in the Bluewater World. Let's go, we need to return to the Central Region Major Cosmos immediately. Everything will be clearer when we get there."

Thus, Merlin stopped explaining about Controllers to Mino, and rushed back to the Central Region Major Cosmos with Mino and Aruba.

Chapter 1047: The Secret of the Void Beasts!

Currently, in the Central Region Major Cosmos, people were bustling about. It was a chaotic scene. Many contenders had already returned to the Central Region Major Cosmos. This was a first for the Central Region Major Cosmos that had been peaceful for countless latitude years.

Mino looked at everything around him curiously. He saw many people like Aruba, all of whom were Free Beings. There were also Controllers who possessed powerful forces inside their bodies, simply restraining them.

At the moment, these people were all hurrying about, severe expressions on their faces. It was clear that something major had happened in the Central Region Major Cosmos.

Merlin and Mino went to the Central Region Controllers Alliance. There were many people gathered there, so Merlin and Aruba did not attract much attention.

"I want to submit a mission."

Merlin said to the Controllers Alliance elder. After understanding the situation, the elder called for Mino and naturally used some means to verify the authenticity of the mission.

In the end, the elder gave Merlin an odd look and said, "Please wait a moment. We need to inform Sir Tyron regarding the reward of a Latitude Cosmos."

Immediately after speaking, the elder seemed to hear something. His expression flashed before he said solemnly to Merlin, "Controller Merlin, Sir Tyron requests the pleasure of meeting you!"

There was nothing in the Central Region Major Cosmos that could be hidden from Tyron. Tyron knew the exact moment Merlin entered the Central Region Major Cosmos.

It was clear that Tyron had a reason for wanting to meet with Merlin, but did not want to reveal his identity. Thus, he took advantage of the opportunity provided when Merlin submitted the mission.

Merlin understood the implication and gave Mino another explanation. He let Aruba explain some general knowledge to Mino before following the Controllers Alliance elder to Tyron's location.

It was the same place as before. Merlin met Tryon again, but this time, this top existence, a Major Cosmos Absolute Being and Controller who possessed unimaginable power, had a grave expression. His brows knit together in a frown, as if there was a problem that even he could not handle.

"Teacher."

Merlin said softly. There was no one there, so Merlin could address Tyron as his teacher.

"You're here."

Tyron took a deep breath and spoke calmly. Merlin could see from Tyron's expression that he was deeply worried.

"That Mino should be the newly produced Controller from the Polo Region. I didn't expect that you would be able to make him a Controller."

Hearing Tyron's words, Merlin shook his head helplessly and gave a wry smile, "There's no longer a Polo Region. Teacher, I was just about to tell you about this. The Polo Region…"

Before he finished speaking, Tyron interrupted calmly, "Did the Polo Region disappear?"

"Teacher, you already knew?"

Merlin was not that surprised. The capabilities of a Major Cosmos Absolute Being was not something he could predict.

"Why would I be unaware that a Void Beast has appeared? In truth, there've been warning signs. The Void Beasts were in the Void Sea, but they unexpectedly charged out of it and wreaked havoc everywhere. Did you see the Central Region Major Cosmos? It might surprise you to see so many people gathered here, but it wasn't only one Void Beast that appeared. There are nine in total, and countless Latitude Regions have already been devoured. That's why these Controllers and Free Beings are in a panic and have come to the Central Region Major Cosmos to take shelter. After all, ordinary people can't deal with Void Beasts."

It seemed like Tyron was also worried about the Void Beasts.

"Teacher, I already have a general idea about the Void Beasts. Although they're terrifying, aren't all of them in the Void Sea? Also, there are many masters watching and observing them there. How did they suddenly burst out of the Void Sea?"

Merlin had no idea. There must be a problem. When a terrifying existence like a Void Beast appeared, it would cause unimaginable destruction, and now there were nine of them.

Moreover, if the source was not stopped, there might be more than nine in the future. There might be ninety, or even more. After all, the number of Void Beasts in the Void Sea was very large.

Tyron hesitated before finally sighing and said, "The truth is, it's something that we caused. We five top Absolute Beings aren't the only Absolute Beings. Although they're not as strong as us, there are still other Absolute Beings. Our Latitude Cosmoses are already strong enough, but even if it can devour and merge, what's the use? It won't help us much. Besides, no one's Latitude Cosmos can be expanded indefinitely. Perhaps your Latitude Cosmos is special and has infinite potential, but it's also possible that it will hit a limit in the future. In short, we old codgers have reached the end. We want a qualitative transformation, but there's no way ahead anymore."

"That's why we eyed the Void Sea! The Void Beast is the only monster that even we Major Cosmos Absolute Beings find troublesome to deal with. It's also hard for us Major Cosmos Absolute Beings to even enter the Void Sea. However, we always felt that there were big secrets in the Void Zone that could help us evolve and carve a new road for us."

"As for the result, you already know. Some Major Cosmos Absolute Beings joined and were trapped in the Void Sea for an unknown reason. The Void Barrier was partially destroyed, which caused the Void Beasts to appear. All Major Cosmos Absolute Beings have already sensed the severity of the matter and are preparing to drive the Void Beasts back to the Void Sea. However, the appearance of the Void Beasts symbolizes absolute destruction. How can they be easily driven back?"

Tyron said worriedly.

Merlin was thoughtful now that he knew the whole story. The reason why the Void Beasts could leave the Void Sea and wreak havoc everywhere was because the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings wanted to breakthrough and carve out a path, so they risked their lives and went to the Void Zone.

After all, Major Cosmos Absolute Beings were invincible existences, and no one could kill them. However, in the Void Sea, the Void Beasts represented destruction itself, so they could kill Major Cosmos Absolute Beings. To be willing to go to the Void Sea, it was clear that that truly wished for a breakthrough.

Although Merlin was not a Major Cosmos Absolute Being, he knew that where there was no way forward anymore, the feeling of despair and endless time may become a shackle.

"Teacher, what are the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings going to do now? We can't just let these Void Beasts continue to wreak havoc."

Merlin asked with a frown.

"Of course we can't let these Void Beasts continue to wreak havoc. These Void Beasts are extremely powerful. There were many Major Cosmos Absolute Beings who entered the Void Sea this time, so there are very few Major Cosmos Absolute Beings left and thus no way of dealing with the nine Void Beasts. Even I can only deal with one Void Beast myself and I'm not even sure if I can drive it back to the Void Sea."

Up until now, Tryon could only smile bitterly. He was not certain either.

Merlin was shocked. He did not think that the situation had become so severe. It seemed that staying at the Central Region Major Cosmos was not absolutely safe.

"For now, we can only wait and see if the other Major Cosmos Absolute Beings can drive the Void Beasts back into the Void Sea. If they don't succeed, all I can do is take the Central Region Major Cosmos and all the Controllers and Free Beings away to the Void Sea. It might be more dangerous there, but at the same time, it might also lure the Void Beasts to follow.

Hearing Tyron's plan, Merlin could feel the urgency of the matter. The situation had unexpectedly deteriorated to such an extent. If the Void Beasts continued to wreak havoc, then no matter how many Latitude Regions there were, they would gradually be devoured by the Void Beasts. At that time, there would no longer be a place for Free Beings and Controllers.

Merlin breathed out a heavy sigh. Currently, all he could do was wait.

Chapter 1048: Taking a Risk!

More and more Controllers and Free Beings entered the Central Region Major Cosmos to seek refuge now that the Void Beasts had run rampant.

Moreover, there was also some very bad news about three Major Cosmos Absolute Beings who moved against a Void Beast. Unfortunately, although they managed to wound it, they failed to drive it back to the Void Sea. On the contrary, the Void Beast grew enraged and devoured several Latitude Regions in succession.

Of course, a few Latitude Regions were not considered much. Even if it were nine Void Beasts, it would take countless latitude years before they could finish devouring all Latitude Regions.

However, even if there were many Latitude Regions, the Void Beasts could not be allowed to devour them all. The Latitude Regions were the foundation of Free Beings and Controllers. Without them, they would lose the meaning of their existence, let alone qualitative evolutions.

As a result, since the siege failed, the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings gave up and stopped attacking. All they could do was keep the Free Beings and Controllers away from the Void Beasts as much as possible so as to avoid calamity.

The ordinary Free Beings and Controllers were panicked and did not seem to have any hope, but some powerful Free Beings and Controllers seemed to know what they were waiting for.

They were waiting for news. News that could determine their fate.

"Hum."

Suddenly, the entire Central Region Major Cosmos shook. Everyone could feel that the huge Central Region Major Cosmos had begun to converge and was slowly being taken into Sir Tyron's body.

No matter how large the Central Region Major Cosmos was, it was still Tyron's world that could be taken into his body at any time.

"What's going on? Why is Sir Tyron keeping the Central Region Major Cosmos?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. If the Central Region Major Cosmos was outside, it was at least open for anyone to enter. However, if Tyron kept it into his body, it would be sealed, and people would only be able to enter the Central Region Major Cosmos with Tyron's permission.

In other words, from now on, the Central Region Major Cosmos was no longer open to the public. If there were any Free Beings or Controllers in the future, they would not be able to enter the Central Region Major Cosmos.

At that time, although many people were panic-stricken, there were also some who rejoiced that they were lucky enough to have entered the Central Region Major Cosmos.

…

Merlin was in a secluded secret chamber. He had already integrated the Latitude Cosmos rewarded from the mission. A mere Latitude Cosmos naturally did not amount to anything.

Presently, all the Free Beings and Controllers were in a panic. Due to the appearance of the Void Beasts, the Free Beings and Controllers spanning across countless Latitude Cosmoses were facing a life-and-death crisis, so they did not dare to wander about anymore. This had the greatest impact on new Controllers like Merlin.

Free Beings could slowly accumulate and grow stronger over time, but they had to find Latitude Cosmoses with broken wills in order to merge the Latitude Cosmos and strengthen their own world.

However, with the threat of the Void Beasts now, who would dare go out willingly? Even Merlin, who was barely a Minor Cosmos Absolute Being now, did not dare go out. If he went out and encountered a Void Beast, it would be a dead end.

Therefore, Merlin was now trying everything possible to strengthen himself. The more chaotic times were, the more important strength was. Otherwise, there would be no safety in the chaos.

Fortunately, Merlin was not an ordinary Controller, but an extremely rare Creator with infinite potential. Even if he did not merge Latitude Cosmoses, he could still slowly expand his Latitude Cosmos, thus enhancing his strength.

Now, Merlin was carefully studying his Illusory World, particularly the Illusory World's natural order. He was trying to find ways to make his Illusory World expand faster.

Merlin's Illusory World was already large enough. In terms of the previous universe, perhaps even the entire Milky Way was still not as large as the Illusory World.

However, it was only comparable to the Milky Way galaxy. Merlin's Illusory World was still small and pitiful compared to the entire universe. It was not even worth mentioning at all. After all, his Illusory World was basically a small universe as it had several basic theorems from the past universe as a natural order to support the entire world.

Even Tyron greatly praised Merlin's Illusory World which had unlimited potential. Tyron's Central Region Major Cosmos, although it was unimaginably vast, was far from the universe from his past life.

Merlin was still ambitious. Although he was not that eager to break through the limit Tyron mentioned, he believed that his Illusory World had infinite potential and could develop to the size of the universe in his past life. Just one hundredth or one thousandth was enough for him. At that time, even he did not know how powerful he would have become. He would not need any qualitative evolutions at all.

"Expanding the world. Besides integrating other Latitude Cosmoses, is it possible to expand it from within?"

Merlin had been thinking of this problem. His Illusory World was indeed expanding, but it was too slow. At present, there were already many civilizations in the Illusory World. These civilizations all had their own governments and had not come in contact with one another.

Expansion of the world had to come from nothingness. In his former world, Merlin had heard a famous theory called the Big Bang. There were people who believed that the universe had gradually developed from an explosion, from nothingness into something.

Now, it was hard for his Illusory World to merge with other Latitude Cosmoses. In order to rapidly improve, he had to think of a way to make earth-shaking changes or 'Big Bangs' in his Illusory World to shake it and cause it to expand rapidly.

This was a very crazy idea, because in the experience of the Controllers, chaos would weaken a world's power, only order would strengthen it. Therefore, every Controller without exception carefully protected his own world to maintain the order within it and prevent it from falling into chaos.

However, Merlin was going the opposite way!

It was not desirable to create chaos on a large scale. Therefore, Merlin chose two civilizations in the Illusory World to give it a try.

These two civilizations were evenly matched and had already stepped out of their planet, but they had not encountered each other yet so there was no dispute over their interests. However, Merlin was the Absolute Being of the Illusory World, so it was easy for him to create conflict. Therefore, he immediately created a star full of resources that both civilizations would covet.

As a result, both civilizations discovered this new resource star. At that time, when the two civilizations formally contacted and negotiations failed, they would end up fighting each other. They were both powerful civilizations and possessed extremely strong power, so their strength was earth-shattering. Countless stars were destroyed, and the war grew bigger and more severe. The number of stars that were destroyed was almost countless.

In the process, Merlin felt joyful that the Illusory World's speed of expansion had increased immediately. It was not just doubled or tripled, but a hundred times more. The more stars destroyed, the more amazing the expansion was.

This was a kind of internal expansion. Although countless stars were destroyed, it was all inside the Illusory World and there was no loss of vitality. Furthermore, the Illusory World's natural order was also extremely large and stable. It was impossible for it to shake because of turmoil.

Merlin seemed to have found a way to rapidly expand the Illusory World. Therefore, he extended this method to the entire Illusory World. At that time, the Illusory World was plunged into turmoil, and all-out-wars broke out everywhere.

The Illusory World was expanding madly. It was originally equivalent to around a dozen Latitude Cosmoses, but in a few short months, it had expanded to the point of twenty Latitude Cosmoses, and was still expanding.

One year, ten years, one hundred years…

For a Controller, even ten thousand years was just a fleeting moment.

Merlin immersed himself in the expansion of his Illusory World. After ten thousand years, his Illusory World had expanded to an unimaginable extent, and was now equivalent to the size of more than 1,800 Latitude Cosmoses. He had already entered the realm of a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being.

"Phew…"

Merlin, who had been immersed in expansion, finally regained consciousness. Currently, the Illusory World was in ruins. Even though it continued to expand, some civilizations became stronger in the war and swept almost half the Illusory World.

Under this circumstance, the ten thousand years of turmoil seemed to have caused the Illusory World to reach its limit, as the natural order had begun to shake.

A world could be chaotic, but it could not be chaotic forever, or else the natural order would be shaken. Once that happened, it would not be far from the collapse of the world.

Therefore, when Merlin felt that the chaos had begun to shake the natural order, he calmed down the disputes in the Illusory World. He knew that it would take a long time for it to recover slowly. When the natural order became strong enough, he could make the Illusory World chaotic again and expand it rapidly.

This was the strength of a Creator. It seemed like this path could only be walked by people like Merlin, who had the special Illusory World. After all, although natural orders for Latitude Cosmoses inside a Creator's body were strong, they were usually unstable. How could they be compared with the natural order Merlin referenced regarding the basic theorem of the universe in his former life?

The natural order of their worlds would definitely shake after a period of chaos. Therefore, Merlin's risky method was only suitable for himself at present.

Unless, in the future, someone could come up with a natural order that was as stable as Merlin. They must also be a Creator in order to expand their Latitude Cosmos in this way.

"Merlin, you're finally awake. Come to me quickly."

Merlin had just awakened when a familiar but urgent voice sounded in his ear.

"Teacher?"

Merlin was stunned. He knew that it was the voice of Teacher Tyron. Judging by the urgent tone in his voice, perhaps something happened with the Void Beasts.

"Ten thousand years. I wonder if the Void Beasts have been driven back to the Void Sea already? Or has the situation deteriorated further?"

Merlin murmured lowly. Ten thousand years. He did not know how the situation had developed either. However, now that his teacher summoned him, he could only get up quickly and rush to the place where Teacher Tyron was.

Chapter 1049: Void Sea!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Merlin found that there seemed to be many more life forces in the Central Region Major Cosmos, presumably because there were people entering the Central Region Major Cosmos. However, the Central Region Major Cosmos was already sealed off.

"Teacher."

Merlin went to Tyron's location. The worry on Tryon's face seemed to have deepened. When he saw Merlin, he was slightly stunned, and his eyes glinted. He stared at Merlin as if in disbelief.

Merlin took a deep breath. He also knew that he could not hide it from Tyron at all, so he simply said the truth softly, "Teacher Tyron, while I was in isolation, I came up with a way to make my world chaotic, and make it grow stronger through adversity. After ten thousand years, I'm now a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, which is equivalent to more than a thousand Latitude Cosmoses."

"Chaos?"

Tyron's eyes shined. He was a Major Cosmos Absolute Being, so he knew what Merlin was talking about. All Controllers staunchly protected their world's stability to maintain order rather than plunge it into endless chaos. Chaos was a disaster for their worlds.

However, Merlin's natural order was very special and stable. No matter how chaotic it was, it would only slightly impact the natural order, unable to make it collapse. It seemed that the natural order inside Merlin's Illusory World contained chaos in itself.

"Good, very good! Merlin, you haven't disappointed me. Perhaps, from the moment you became a Controller, you've already walked a path yourself. However, this path is not something that I, nor any other Controllers can walk. It's a path that belongs only to you."

Tyron said calmly. When he first saw the natural order of Merlin's Illusory World, he knew that Merlin's achievements in the future would be unimaginable. He might even surpass him, a Major Cosmos Absolute Being, and reach the realm that they all dreamt of.

"Merlin, I originally wanted to give you a stable environment and let you stay in peace for hundreds of latitude years, but now, after only ten thousand years, you'll have to go to the battlefield."

"The battlefield? Teacher, what's going on?"

Merlin was shocked. He felt that things might have already changed.

Tyron sighed deeply and said, "The Major Cosmos Absolute Beings all died in the Void Sea. The world they brought with them has also collapsed completely. The Void Sea is no longer a barrier, but a stronghold for the Void Beasts to attack. That's why we can't just sit back and wait to die."

"The Void Beasts represent destruction. If they leave the Void Sea, then all Latitude Cosmoses and Latitude Regions will no longer exist. Therefore, we must take the initiative to attack. All the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings have gathered their strength, and managed to drive several Void Beasts back to the Void Sea after ten thousand years. However, there's no natural barrier here, so we have to erect one.

Merlin understood that the Void Beasts had not been defeated, and the situation had become even more dire. Any carelessness would result in the Void Beasts charging out. The consequences were unimaginable.

He did not know what happened to the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings and what they encountered in the Void Sea for the barrier between the Void Sea and the Latitude Regions to be broken. If the barrier was not repaired, then it did not matter how many people were sent there.

At present, this was the only way. Even people like Merlin who just became a Controller had to go to the battlefield to erect the barrier.

"Teacher Tyron, is there a way?"

Merlin asked in a low voice. He had seen the horror of the Void Beasts with his own eyes. Even Latitude Cosmoses had been devoured. Perhaps a Controller had been born by that world, but what use was that? It was still swallowed whole by the Void Beasts. Only by gathering many powerful beings could they stand a chance at competing with the Void Beasts.

Tyron sighed deeply and then said, "I'm thinking of one now. Although it's very hard to completely eliminate the Void Beasts, if we go all out, we can still fight them for a period of time. There'll be some Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings or Major Cosmos Absolute Beings who will lead a large group of Free Beings and Controllers, and concentrate all their strength to fight against a Void Beast. All we need to do is erect this barrier. There's very little chance that the Void Beasts will unite. They've always worked independently and even fought with each other."

Void Beasts represented destruction and possessed terrifying power which could destroy Latitude Cosmoses, but they did not have much intelligence. They only acted on instinct, and their instinct was destruction.

Therefore, wherever the Void Beasts went, there would be destruction. Only a very special place like the Void Sea could accommodate the existence of the Void Beasts.

That was why, in order to deal with one Void Beast, several Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings would have to lead hundreds of Free Beings and Controllers. This was their hope. Otherwise, if the Void Beasts united, it would not matter no matter how many Free Beings and Controllers there were.

"Teacher, I understand! I'll erect a powerful barrier!"

Merlin knew the reason why Tyron said these things to him. It was already special treatment that Merlin was able to cultivate in peace for ten thousand years. At this critical moment of life and death, even if Merlin was Tyron's disciple, he could no longer be treated specially. He had to fight against the Void Beasts too.

"Haha, you used to be a weak Minor Cosmos Absolute Being who could only integrate into other people's teams, but now, you're a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being who can lead a team alone. Come, I'll take you there immediately. There've been many scattered teams recently. I believe many people will join your team.

Merlin was also very excited as it was safer to be able to lead a team. Moreover, he would also become the leader of a powerful party. Furthermore, with Tyron appearing with his disciple, there would be many powerful Free Beings and Controllers willing to follow Merlin.

"There's no time to lose. Let's go now."

Tyron grabbed Merlin and with a flash, they traveled away from the Controllers Alliance and appeared in a gray space. Merlin looked around carefully and saw that next to him was the Central Region Major Cosmos.

The current Central Region Major Cosmos had shrunk greatly and was relatively empty. There were not many people in it, but there were many life forces of Free Beings and Controllers that soared in the skies outside.

These Free Beings all had grim expressions as they stared intensely at the void in front of them.

This void was pitch-black without any time, space, movements, or even energy. The only word that could be used to describe it was a void!

Merlin had never seen such a place before. It was complete nothingness. Everything that entered it seemed to suddenly disappear.

"Is this the Void Sea?"

Merlin's heart raced as he immediately thought of the Void Sea. The Void Beasts could only live in a place like this without causing any destruction. That was because if there was nothing around them, how could they find anything to destroy?

This was the biggest characteristic of the Void Sea. Unfortunately, the barrier between the Void Sea and the Latitude Regions had been broken. Only Controllers and Free Beings could erect a replacement barrier to hold back the Void Beasts.

"It's Sir Tyron."

"Who's that beside Sir Tyron? To be personally brought by Sir Tyron, is he an extraordinary contender?"

The surrounding Free Beings and Controllers were already very familiar with Tyron. Tyron's Central Region Major Cosmos had set up a solid barrier and whenever there was a Void Beast, Tryon would attack. Only Tyron could suppress a Void Beast alone, which allowed the barrier to be built without problems.

Therefore, Tyron possessed a strong reputation.

Tryon smiled and said loudly to the crowd, "Today, I'd like to introduce everyone to my disciple, Controller Merlin! I didn't want to reveal his identity but this is a moment of life and death for all Free Beings and Controllers and everyone must do their best. Merlin is now a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being and will lead a team alone. Is there anyone willing to follow Merlin's team to fight against the Void Beasts?"

"Boom."

A whirlwind swept through the crowd's hearts at Tyron's words. The news was too shocking. After all, it was well known that Tyron, a Major Cosmos Absolute Being and one of the top five Absolute Beings, had not accepted a disciple for a long time.

Unexpectedly, a mysterious disciple appeared, who was also a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. Tyron's position in the eyes of the people was very high so many people were naturally interested in Merlin and turned their gazes at him. Many thoughts and ideas swept over Merlin.

Merlin smiled. He knew that Tyron was trying to help him, so he began to reveal a hint of the Illusory World. The terrifying power of more than a thousand Latitude Cosmoses was suffocating.

This was a true Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. Regardless of where they were, Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings were absolute overlords. Therefore, people were convinced immediately. There was a greater chance of becoming well known by following a powerful Medium Cosmos Absolute Being.

"Haha, I, Alva, am willing to join Controller Merlin's team."

With the addition of the first Free Being, many other Free Beings and Controllers were tempted. Of course, these Controllers were ordinary but there were a few Minor Cosmos Absolute Beings.

"Swoosh."

Suddenly, an unfamiliar Controller appeared in front of Merlin. His aura was similar to Merlin's and he was a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being too.

"My, Azulon's Sanguine World, is comparable to one thousand and three hundred Latitude Cosmoses! I'm also a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. Although you're Sir Tyron's disciple, you must have the strength to convince me so I can willingly join your team."

Not only Azulon was a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being but he was also an overlord. He ruled over several Latitude Regions and was considered well-known.

Originally, he planned to form a team by himself but his reputation was too poor and his strength was not among the top of Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings, so only a few people were willing to join him.

Azulon was not willing to join other Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings. He did not want to be subordinated to another Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. As a result, after seeing that Tyron's disciple, Merlin, wanted to form a new team, he immediately wanted to join Merlin. However, Azulon was arrogant and unyielding. After all, he was an overlord, so it was natural that a decision would only be made after testing Merlin's strength.

Merlin was delighted. He knew that if a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being joined, his team's strength would become stronger and surpass other teams. Moreover, more people would be willing to join a strong team. It was full of benefits.

He also knew that Azulon was an overlord and would not be willing to be subordinated to others. Therefore, he could not rely on Tyron and instead, had to rely on himself to defeat Azulon with his strength.

Merlin also wanted to see how powerful a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being was, so he nodded and said, "That's natural. If I form a team, I should be responsible for everyone. If my strength isn't enough to lead the team, I'll make you the leader of this team instead."

Azulon was slightly stunned. Of course, he did not believe that Merlin would let him be the leader. However, this indicated that Merlin was very confident.

"Good, then let's go. Sanguine World!"

Azulon did not dare to let his guard down. Although he was proud and arrogant, he was facing off against Tyron's disciple. No one was disrespectful of Tyron.

Therefore, Azulon used his Latitude Cosmos immediately. He attached great importance to Merlin and also wanted to gain the upper hand by beating Merlin in one move.

A battle between Controllers was very simple. There were no other tricks or patterns. It was simply a battle between their worlds. Merlin watched as Azulon's mighty and terrifying Latitude Cosmos pressed down on him. He took a deep breath and shouted, "Illusory World, descend!"

"Boom."

Merlin's Illusory World appeared immediately. His Illusory World was extremely stable and had more than one thousand and five hundred Latitude Cosmoses and was incredibly powerful. Moreover, due to the stable natural order, his world was far stronger than ordinary Latitude Cosmoses.

"What?"

There was no fancy frontal collision between the two worlds. Azula's Sanguine World was full of mad and wild killings but the world was still stable. However, when the two worlds collided, his world immediately collapsed and crumbled. If the collision continued, his world might be crushed to pieces by Merlin.

"How powerful! This is Sir Tyron's disciple? His world is so stable."

"I haven't heard of any powerful Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings recently. It seems Sir Tyron deserves to be the top Major Cosmos Absolute Being. The disciple he raised is extraordinary. Azulon is no match for Sir Merlin."

These were Free Beings and some Controllers who had lived for a long time. They had seen many Controllers, especially powerful ones, so they could naturally tell who was stronger.

Furthermore, Azulon's world had already begun to collapse while Merlin's Illusory World was still intact. It could be seen at a glance just who was stronger and who was weaker.

Seeing Azulon's world starting to collapse, Merlin stopped. It was not a fight to the death but a competition. Besides, he wanted Azulon to join his team. Therefore, Merlin immediately withdrew the Illusory World back into his body while Azulon sighed in relief and began to slowly restore his Sanguine World.

After a long while, his Sanguine World was restored. The gap between them was too large. It was not just a gap of two hundred Latitude Cosmoses but also a gap between their natural orders. When his Sanguine World collided with Merlin's Illusory World, he could not stir up Merlin's Illusory World at all. He felt that Merlin's world was too stable.

If it were any other Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, even if Azulon could not defeat them, he had the confidence that he could deal with the other party with a heavy blow. However, no matter what he did, it would be no use against Merlin's Illusory World. He would not even be able to scratch it. He knew that the gap between Merlin and himself was too large.

Therefore, Azulon waved his hand and said, "I, Azulon, am willing to work under Controller Merlin!"

"Haha, Merlin, Azulon is a powerful Medium Cosmos Absolute Being…"

Tyron nodded with satisfaction. He was not surprised that Merlin had defeated Azulon but it was very meaningful that Azulon was completely won over. However, with Azulon's help, Merlin's team would surely become stronger, so he would not have to worry as much.

Chapter 1051: Limits!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Following Azulon's submission and after witnessing the battle, most people had a general understanding of Merlin's abilities. Thus, many people were eager to join Merlin's squad.

Nevertheless, it was not easy to join Merlin's squad. All of them had to offer their bodies and must not resist to enter Merlin's world. Due to Merlin's special abilities as a Controller, he could communicate with everyone and amass their powers to detonate an unparalleled attack.

If not for this life-or-death juncture as well as the repeated assurance from a few Major Cosmos Absolute Beings, no one would trust another person to enter their world. This was because once they had entered it, they would have to endure a massive suppression and entrust their lives to the Controller.

Some Controllers even killed the weaker Controllers to plunder the worlds in their bodies. However, such offender would be put to death by the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings such as Tyron. It was with their assurance that the Free Beings and Controllers could form a squad with confidence.

Currently, Merlin was only a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. Once he had opened the Illusory World, numerous Free Beings and Controllers entered his world. There were also a few familiar faces such as Aruba and Mino, the newly-accomplished Controller. Both of them had supported Merlin at first instance.

"Hum hum hum."

In the beginning, when just tens and hundreds of people entered, Merlin did not feel anything. As the number gradually grew to hundreds and even thousands, Merlin began to sense an infinite reservoir of power stirring in the Illusory World. His power was enhanced countless times, available at the tip of his fingers.

Moreover, the number of people was still growing. One thousand was not the limit. Soon, almost two thousand contenders had entered Merlin's Illusory World. The power of Merlin's world grew to a truly marvelous level.

"Haha, teacher, come and test my powers."

Merlin laughed. Although he was merely a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, the combined power of two thousand over contenders made him feel like an equal match to the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings.

"Boom."

Tyron also smiled. He released a small burst of power from the Central Region Major Cosmos. The power of an ordinary Major Cosmos Absolute Being collided strongly against Merlin's Illusory World.

Although Tyron had simply wielded the power of an ordinary Major Cosmos Absolute Being, his power was still formidable beyond what most people could ever achieve in hundreds and thousands of latitude years.

However, Merlin's Illusory World was staggeringly able to withstand the impact. That signified that Merlin's Illusory World was now able to exert the combined power of two thousand over contenders.

"Good, good, Merlin, your world is truly stable. However, with two thousand over contenders, is it burdensome on your world?"

Tyron asked, a little concerned. After all, even the most powerful Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, who was just a notch away from becoming a Major Cosmos Absolute Being, still had a certain capacity limit. No one could carry more than three thousand Free Beings or Controllers.

On the other hand, Merlin was just barely past the Medium Cosmos Absolute Being threshold, so he was not considered very powerful. The fact that he was able to accommodate over two thousand people had already exceeded Tyron's expectations. Thus, Tyron was worried that Merlin would not be able to accommodate such a large number of people and instead become burdened.

"Teacher, I'm fine. Now, I feel that two thousand people are still not my limit. Teacher Tyron should be familiar that the natural order of my world is exceptionally stable. Even if there were another one thousand people, most likely, we still won't reach the limit."

There was a flicker of excitement in Merlin's eyes. If he could feel this powerful with two thousand people to the point of being on par with the weaker Major Cosmos Absolute Beings, would he not become even more powerful with another one thousand people?

Furthermore, the more contenders he could accommodate, the power enhancement was even more tremendous. This would also benefit Merlin as it would allow him to experience the differences between the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings in advance. Surely, it would be beneficial for him to achieve a Major Cosmos Absolute Being in the future.

After all, in terms of substance, there was no real difference between a Major Cosmos Absolute Being and a Medium or Minor Cosmos Absolute Being. The only difference was in terms of power.

A Major Cosmos Absolute Being required having at least one Latitude Region and one Latitude Region usually comprised of tens of thousands of Latitude Cosmoses. There was a stark difference between this and a few hundred or thousand Latitude Cosmoses.

"Oh? Merlin, you haven't reached the limit?"

Tyron felt curious. Although he knew that Merlin's Illusory World's natural order was very unique and very stable, he did not know the true extent of its stability. So, Tyron also wanted to find out Merlin's limit.

Hence, Tyron shouted into the surrounding area, "Everyone, my disciple Merlin's world hasn't reached its limit after accommodating over two thousand contenders. If there are still any interested contenders, you can enter Merlin's Illusory World!"

As Tyron's words spread, many contenders were perplexed yet tempted. They understood the significance of two thousand contenders. Only a powerful Medium Cosmos Absolute Being could accommodate such a large number of contenders. In addition, Merlin had not reached his limit.

If Merlin became more powerful, those who entered his world would also be safer. This was common knowledge. With Tyron's assurance, some of the slightly doubtful individuals grew resolute in their convictions.

"Swish swish swish."

One after another, the contenders entered Merlin's Illusory World.

Two thousand and one hundred, two thousand and two hundred, two thousand and three hundred…

The numbers climbed to two thousand and nine hundred but Merlin still did not sense any limit. Mobilizing the power of almost three thousand people in the Illusory World felt easy. It seemed like his limit was a lot more than three thousand.

Thinking of this, even Merlin found it baffling. It was only now that he truly realized how effective it was to use the theories of the universe in his previous life to construct the natural order of the Illusory World.

Three thousand one hundred and eighty!

Finally, Merlin sensed a slight sluggishness from the Illusory World. It had reached its limit. Three thousand one hundred and eighty was the limit. If there were any more, the Illusory World would be affected and impede Merlin's wielding abilities.

Thus, this was the limit of the Illusory World!

"What a tremendous power!"

Merlin savored the power of the Illusory World quietly. This was his first time sensing such a huge amount of power. This was a tremendous power that most people could only dream of in their wildest dreams. He was comparable to the Major Cosmos contenders, perhaps not as powerful as the five top contenders but just one level below them.

Now, this tremendous power could be wielded by a mere Medium Cosmos Absolute Being like Merlin. Most probably, in terms of wielding power, Merlin could not match the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings but in terms of absolute strength, he was not inferior to the top five Absolute Beings.

"How is it, Merlin?"

Tyron was still watching Merlin with a tinge of concern. He could sense that Merlin's Illusory World had reached its limit but Tyron was uncertain how many people were inside.

Merlin replied with a smile, "Teacher, my world has reached its limit. It currently accommodates three thousand one hundred and eighty people!"

"What?"

At this moment, a look of disbelief appeared on Tyron's face and his mind tumbled into a raging storm. He could not believe that as a mere Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, Merlin was able to accommodate more than three thousand people.

If Merlin's world continued to expand in the future and he was able to accommodate more people, how much more powerful would he be? Would there be a qualitative transformation that would enable him to surpass the five top ultimate contenders and reach the realm they sought to achieve?

Tyron did not know the answer but he was sure of one thing. Merlin's potential was endless, perhaps even greater than the five top contenders!

"Good, wonderful. Now, we have another force equivalent to a powerful Major Cosmos Absolute Being. The barrier will be even stronger!"

Tyron was gratified. Regardless of how far Merlin would grow in the future, Merlin was still his disciple. Tyron would take pride in him!

Chapter 1052: Glimmer of Hope

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the blink of an eye, Merlin had led his squad in the Void Sea for twenty years.

To Twenty years to an ordinary life form, was very long. It was long enough to see a young boy became a husband and father. It was also long enough for a father to grow old, and for a beautiful face to turn wrinkly.

However, to the Free Beings and Controllers around the Void Sea, this was nothing more than an instant. Some of the powerful Controllers spent tens of thousands of years just to mull on a single decision, so what was a mere twenty years?

In the past twenty years, Merlin led his squad and only patrolled the barrier of the Void Sea. During this period, Merlin did not encounter any Void Beasts.

These Void Beasts were not very fast. In addition, the barrier was huge, so there was a chance that Merlin would not encounter it. Perhaps, Merlin would not encounter it even after a few hundred years.

For the past twenty years, Merlin's Illusory World had been expanding slowly. The natural order of the Illusory World had long-since recovered and became more stable and sturdier. There was no chaos in the Illusory World due to a well-maintained order. Hence, it could only expand very slowly. At Merlin's current level of abilities, this rate of expansion was almost negligible.

However, the peace over the past twenty years was not reassuring. Recently, they heard that a squad encountered a Void Beast and had suffered a massive loss. Out of over two thousand people, only over one thousand was left. Almost half the squad was killed or injured. Moreover, the Latitude Cosmos of the Medium Cosmos Absolute Being who was at the helm, was on the brink of collapse. Fortunately, Tyron arrived in time or else, the consequences would have been disastrous.

This was the true reason why Tyron and the other Major Cosmos Absolute Beings stood guard behind the barrier. As soon as a Void Beast was discovered, he would immediately provide support to stop the Void Beast.

However, sometimes, the distance was too far. Even Tyron needed a long time to arrive. During this period, it was up to the squad. If they could not withstand the Void Beast, the entire squad would be wiped out.

Under the stern orders of the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings, anyone who dared to escape and give up on the barrier would be jointly pursued and killed by these Major Cosmos Absolute Beings without exception.

Therefore, despite knowing they could not win against the Void Beast, no one dared to retreat. The battle which involved countless Free Beings and Controllers could only be described as brutal.

Affected by this incident, the morale of Merlin's squad was slightly depressed.

"Controller Merlin, we'll be going back soon. In the past twenty years, we had been quite lucky to not encounter any Void Beast."

Azulon said with a smile. He was now Merlin's right and left hand. In addition to his massive strength, he was able to help Merlin manage some issues in the squad. Merlin was quite pleased with him.

Of course, Merlin knew that everyone was under pressure. If they encountered a Void Beast, no one knew whether they would be able to survive it.

"Boom."

Suddenly, the entire void was shaking. Although this place was very near the Void Sea, none of them had stepped foot into the Void Zone, so they could still feel the energy fluctuations. It was no longer an endless stretch of void.

If it was from the Void Sea, regardless of how strong an energy fluctuation was, it could not vibrate outward. Therefore, upon sensing this massive surge of energy fluctuation, Merlin and Azulon exchanged a look and saw the gravity sunk in each other's eyes.

Alas, it came!

Both of them knew that such a large-scale energy fluctuation meant that a Void Beast was striking the barrier and that a squad was currently fighting hard to stop it.

"Can you determine the direction? Provide backup at once!"

Merlin immediately made a call. No one was willing to provide backup but this was a rule laid down by the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings. If anyone sensed the Void Beast's attacks but did not provide backup, they would similarly be subjected to severe punishment. Due to the precariousness of the situation, the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings would not spare anyone who dared to slack.

Hence, any squad who sensed the energy fluctuation had no choice but to provide backup.

In the Illusory World, everyone became anxious. Fortunately, all of them were either Free Beings or Controllers, so they had gone through many hardships to become a Free Being or Controller. Despite the heaviness in their hearts, at this critical juncture, they were determined to fight.

"First, inform this news to Teacher Tyron."

Every squad had the means to relay information to Tyron and the rest of the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings. Upon receiving the news, they would rush over as soon as possible but in this period, it would be up to squads like Merlin's to hold the fort.

After the message was sent, Merlin and Azulon hurried toward the source of the energy fluctuation. If they were late, then the Void Beast might breach the barrier.

…

Controller Caesar was originally a very unique life form. His natural abilities were powerful, so from the time of his birth to becoming a Controller, it only took him one hundred thousand years.

Such a brief period was considered very admirable. In addition, after becoming a Controller, Caesar encountered many favorable opportunities. He managed to devour a great number of incomplete Latitude Cosmoses and finally became a powerful Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. He was a top contender among them.

However, the Void Beasts' invasion had disrupted Controller Caesar's plans. At first, he was hopeful that within ten latitude years, he could become a Major Cosmos Absolute Being, the ultimate existence of all.

However, all his plans had gone down the drain. He could only lead a squad. Due to his fame and prestige, approximately two thousand five hundred over contenders were willing to follow him.

This should have been a truly formidable force but no matter how powerful, they still could not compare to a Void Beast. Their luck had been considered stellar. It was only after over fifty years at the Void Sea that they encountered a Void Beast.

Now that they finally encountered a Void Beast, their luck had run out. Looking at the inconceivably huge Void Beast exuding a vicious aura, all of them knew that a fight was inevitable today. Moreover, their hope of surviving was extremely bleak. They could only wait for a Major Cosmos Absolute Being to arrive or backup from the surrounding squads.

"We're already requested for help to the surrounding area. If there are any other squads around, then there's still hope. Plus, a Major Cosmos Absolute Being will surely come as fast as he can. Hold on!"

Although Controller Caesar was a top contender among the Controllers, at this point, he was barely capable of holding on further. He wielded his Latitude Cosmos, supported by over two thousand contenders and achieved the power level of a Major Cosmos Absolute Being that he so greatly desired.

Sadly, faced against this Void Beast, this incredible culmination of power appeared so minuscule.

This Void Beast's body was too gigantic. It was even bigger than some Latitude Cosmoses. Its size was comparable to a few dozens Latitude Cosmoses. The end of its body could not be seen with the naked eye.

With such a gigantic body, it was considered powerful even among the Void Beasts. Controller Caesar was not confident that he could hold on until a Major Cosmos Absolute Being arrived.

"Boom boom boom."

Regardless, Controller Caesar mobilized all his power and launched a frenzied attack at the Void Beast. Save for angering the Void Beast, the attacks did not seem to have any effects.

"Roar…"

Finally, the Void Beast seemed to reach its boiling point. It threw its head into the air and roared. Its gigantic body slammed directly against Controller Caesar's world.

"Block!"

Controller Caesar's heart lurched. He prayed silently in his heart but the prayer did not work. The moment the Void Beast slammed into his world, instantly, the entire world collapsed.

"Crash!"

Like the crashing sound of a waterfall, his world was torn apart. The natural order of the world was shattered. Only his strongest natural order was not destroyed. As for the contenders, over eight hundred people were killed on impact and many others were being swallowed alive by the Void Beast.

Being swallowed by a Void Beast was truly terrifying and tantamount to death. Upon entering the Void Beast's body, everything was instantly converted into nothingness, so it was impossible to survive. After all, the Void Beast was a horrifying existence capable of swallowing multiple Latitude Regions. It represented endless destruction.

"It's over. I didn't expect that I'll die here…"

Caesar's expression was filled with despair. He knew that, no matter what, a Major Cosmos Absolute Being would not arrive here in time. So, he was facing certain death.

Thinking of this, a crazy idea appeared in Controller Caesar's mind. He was prepared to self-destruct his Latitude Cosmos and use the Latitude Cosmos to gravely injure the Void Beast.

Whether or not his plan would succeed, he did not know.

"Come on, everyone, one last blow. No matter what, we cannot allow this Void Beast to breach our defense!"

Caesar's voice turned ironically calm at this time. For a second, all the Free Beings and Controllers fell silent.

It was amid this extremely somber atmosphere that, suddenly, someone sensed something approaching and raised his head toward the void.

"Controller Caesar, a squad has appeared. We're saved!"

"A squad?"

Controller Caesar was overjoyed and stared at the void with delight. Despite that enormous energy fluctuation, he did not expect that someone could arrive in such a short time.

Immediately, everyone saw a glimmer of hope.

Chapter 1053: Fighting Chance I

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"It's a squad. It must be Azulon's squad. Only Azulon's squad might be able to challenge this Void Beast!"

Controller Caesar was staring at the squad vigilantly. He, too, hoped that it was Azulon's squad. Azulon's squad was the most powerful. After all, Azulon was almost at the peak of a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. He was just one step away from becoming an almighty Major Cosmos Absolute Being.

However, Controller Caesar knew that the possibility of it being Azulon's squad was extremely small. When the squad got closer, someone finally recognized them.

"That's Sir Tyron's disciple, Controller Merlin's squad."

"What? Controller Merlin? A while back, I heard that Sir Tyron has a new disciple called Controller Merlin. While Controller Merlin is also a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, he's just ordinary. How can he oppose this Void Beast? I'm afraid, even Controller Merlin's squad would be sacrificed."

Seeing that it was Merlin's squad, Controller Caesar's squad suddenly felt crestfallen. Perhaps, Merlin's arrival would buy them some time from immediate destruction but after a while, surely Merlin's squad would not be able to hold on. Then, both squads would be annihilated.

"I hope Sir Tyron will arrive soon…"

Caesar could only pray fervently in his heart for Tyron to arrive as soon as possible. Otherwise, they might not be able to survive this catastrophe. If two squads were annihilated at the same time, the barrier might no longer have any meaning.

…

Merlin got closer to the energy fluctuation. At this time, he could see the other squad. Merlin did not recognize this squad but Azulon did with a single glance. Frowning, Azulon said, "It's Controller Caesar's squad. I didn't expect that they're the ones who encountered the Void Beast."

With regards to Controller Caesar, Merlin had not much of an inkling. However, when Merlin shifted his gaze toward the real culprit, the gigantic Void Beast, his eyes narrowed and he heightened his guard.

Judging from this Void Beast's aura, it was much more vicious than the one he had encountered in the Polo Region. This meant that this was not an ordinary Void Beast but a powerful one.

Initially, Merlin was confident that he could oppose a Void Beast but now, his confidence hit rock bottom. Regardless, he had to stop the Void Beast and prevent it from breaching the barrier.

"Teacher still needs a few more days to arrive, so, we must hold on for a few days!"

Merlin said in a deep voice. He already received Teacher Tyron's response that he was rushing here as quickly as possible. Despite the ultimate Major Cosmos Absolute Beings' incredible speed, it would still take Tyron a few days to arrive. Thus, Merlin and Controller Caesar needed to hold on for a few more days. Otherwise, all of them would face imminent destruction.

Merlin's battle vigor was gradually gaining momentum. Since he came here a long time ago, this would be his first direct showdown with a Void Beast.

"Boom."

Merlin immediately wielded his Illusory World. Merlin stood in the center of his world, his entire body filled with a powerful aura. His voice boomed with irrefutable authority as he spoke, "Controller Caesar, your world has been seriously damaged. Please rest. Leave this Void Beast to me!"

Caesar's squad was no longer helpful at this time. His world had shattered. Just one more blow would cause it to collapse completely.

Therefore, Merlin immediately asked Caesar's squad to retreat and positioned himself in front of the Void Beast.

The Void Beast did not possess much intelligence. It merely acted according to instincts. However, it could sense that the people standing before it was slightly different.

Nevertheless, the Void Beast was entirely fearless, so it simply rushed headfirst at them. Its body was its strongest attack, sufficient to tear apart a Latitude Region, what more a puny world.

Merlin took a deep breath. Azulon already returned to Merlin's Illusory World. At this time, Merlin's voice echoed throughout the Illusory World, "This battle today will not only involve your life and death but it will also involve the safety of this barrier. Everyone, please contribute all your strength."

"Boom boom boom."

As soon as Merlin finished speaking, the Illusory World immediately began to shake. Surge after surge of overwhelming power swiftly strengthened Merlin's Illusory World.

Merlin's power skyrocketed. From a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being, it grew by leaps and bounds and soon reached the level of a Major Cosmos Absolute Being. However, just an ordinary Major Cosmos Absolute Being was not a strong opponent against the Void Beast. If Merlin had remained at the mere two thousand people level, he certainly would not be able to oppose this Void Beast.

However, Merlin's Illusory World had reached its limit by accommodating more than three thousand contenders. Merlin was more powerful than Caesar and was equivalent to a mid-tier Major Cosmos Absolute Being.

As to whether he could block this Void Beast, Merlin was not one hundred percent certain. Regardless, he would fight till his last breath.

"Illusory World, suppress!"

Merlin mobilized the full strength of the Illusory World. The massive world immediately hurtled a suppressive force toward the Void Beast. Two petrifying surges of power came head to head at the border of the Void Sea.

"Boom."

A horrible fluctuation ensued. On this side of the Void Sea, there was massive destruction. Everything in the surrounding area was obliterated. On the inner side of the Void Sea, however, it remained calm. No fluctuation could be seen.

This was the Void Sea. Everything was converted into nothingness, so it was impossible to stir up any fluctuations.

Merlin felt a huge surge of power wash over his Illusory World. This was pure power. There was nothing extraordinary about it except for its immense power. However, its power was completely inconceivable. Merlin had never seen such tremendous power in his entire life.

His Illusory World immediately trembled as if it would soon collapse. All the planets in the Illusory World were pulverized, leaving a trail of devastation.

This was merely the first impact. At this moment, Merlin knew that he could not block this Void Beast!

"It's so powerful. Such a powerful Void Beast, even if a real Major Cosmos Absolute Being were to arrive, it still cannot be stopped!"

Merlin's heart sunk. He finally realized this Void Beast's formidableness. Perhaps, only the five top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings could be able to suppress this Void Beast. Anyone else simply could not stand against it.

At this moment, Merlin could not retreat. He had to hold on. If he did not, the Illusory World would shatter.

"Roar…"

The Void Beast's attack did not manage to smash Merlin's Illusory World. Moreover, it was attacked by the power of the Illusory World. The Void Beast appeared more enraged. Its gigantic form appeared to take a few steps back and then came rearing at full force once again.

"Bam."

There was another violent impact. In Merlin's Illusory World, every corner was exploding and falling apart. The Illusory World shook harder.

Fortunately, Merlin's world natural order was extraordinarily solid. Despite all the chaos, he was still able to control the Illusory World and stabilize it temporarily.

At this time, Merlin calmed down. He carefully sensed the Illusory World. Due to the Void Beast's violent attacks, Merlin's Illusory World was completely mired in chaos. Nonetheless, this chaos allowed the Illusory World to continue to expand.

Initially, the Illusory World was only the size of a thousand five hundred over Latitude Cosmoses but now, thanks to this blessing in disguise, the chaos in the Illusory World was helping it expand at an unimaginable rate.

One thousand five hundred, one thousand six hundred, one thousand seven hundred…

If any of the other Controllers were to witness Merlin's development, no one would believe that such an anomaly existed. Merlin's world was on the brink of collapse yet it was expanding at a furious rate. Its aura was also growing more powerful.

"Unfortunately, there are no more contenders to enter the Illusory World. Otherwise, my power will be enhanced even more."

Several ideas flashed across Merlin's mind. Following the expansion of the Illusory World, its limit was also increasing rapidly. At first, he could only accommodate over three thousand people but now, he might be able to accommodate over four thousand or more. However, they were facing a life and death crisis, so there were no contenders to recruit.

"Crack."

Finally, Merlin sensed that his natural order was breaking inch by inch. Although the Illusory World was expanding quickly, no matter how, he still could not withstand the Void Beast's repeated impacts. Every single impact tore apart the Illusory World's power of natural order. If the Void Beast continued to ram at him, sooner or later, the Illusory World would collapse.

If that happened, what use would it be for the Illusory World to grow at such an astounding rate?

Waiting for Tyron's arrival was a fool's dream. There were still a few days to go. If they waited for Tyron to arrive, Merlin would already be dead.

"Sh*t, Controller Merlin is completely unable to block that Void Beast."

Controller Caesar grew worried. Even his squad appeared anxious. All of them knew very well that once Merlin failed and his world shattered, they would also be torn into pieces by the Void Beast.

Merlin spotted Controller Caesar from the corner of his eyes and an idea occurred in his mind.

"Doesn't Controller Caesar also have a squad? If all of them can enter my Illusory World and strengthen it, perhaps, we might still have a fighting chance."

A bold thought flashed across Merlin's mind.

Chapter 1054: Fighting Chance II

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Everyone, based on our squad's abilities alone, we can't fight the Void Beast. Controller Caesar, my Illusory World's natural order is very stable and can accommodate more contenders. Hence, why don't we merge both our squads for one final stand?"

Merlin's voice rumbled like thunder in the sky and echoed in everyone's ear. Now, everyone knew the situation faced by Merlin's squad. Once Merlin's squad failed, no one here would survive.

Thinking along these lines, Controller Caesar was the first to respond to Merlin's call, "Haha," Caesar laughed heartily, "I don't see anything wrong with that! To stop the Void Beast, any method is worth a try, what more combining a squad. I'll start first."

With that, Caesar flew into Merlin's Illusory World. Then, without any further hesitation, all the contenders entered Merlin's Illusory World.

Since Merlin's Illusory World had been suffering the the Void Beast's constant barrage, in just a short period, it had expanded to almost two thousand Latitude Cosmoses.

This directly led to the number of contenders that could be accommodated in the Illusory World to increase significantly. Originally, the Illusory World had over three thousand people. Now, a steady stream of Free Beings and Controllers were ushered in.

Three thousand five hundred, three thousand eight hundred, four thousand…

In just a short time, Merlin's Illusory World had accommodated over four thousand people. Merlin could feel the additional burden on the Illusory World but at the same time, he could feel the Illusory World's power increase rapidly.

"Boom."

Finally, when the headcount reached four thousand two hundred people, Merlin's Illusory World had reached its limit. It could not accommodate any more people. However, its power was now increased to an entire new level. On top of that, Merlin's Illusory World was able to firmly withstand the Void Beast's impact.

"We've blocked it!"

Merlin was not the only one who was relieved. Azulon, Caesar, and the others were also overjoyed. Never in their wildest dreams did they expect the situation to turn around so dramatically. They initially thought that their lives would be hanging on a thin thread as they await Tyron's rescue but now, they were able to fight the Void Beast head-on. Truly, it had exceeded everyone's expectations.

Nonetheless, Merlin did not let down his guard. This was a golden opportunity. He was using the fight against the Void Beast to prolong the chaos in the Illusory World. Although the Illusory World was chaotic, with the support of over four thousand people, it remained remarkably stable.

Thus, it was a golden opportunity for Merlin to expand his world. Surely, he would not allow it to pass. Therefore, Merlin took the initiative to confront and attack the Void Beast, causing it to become enraged.

Two thousand one hundred, two thousand three hundred and fifty, two thousand eight hundred, three thousand…

Merlin's Illusory World had expanded at breakneck speed. In just three days, the Illusory World had expanded to the equivalent of over three thousand Latitude Cosmoses. This made him one of the more powerful existences among the Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings.

Of course, he had a long way to go compared to the top Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings but then, Merlin had only become a Controller for less than ten thousand years whereas the top Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings had spent dozens or hundreds of latitude years.

By now, almost all of Caesar's squad had entered Merlin's world. The combined power of over five thousand people was truly menacing, perhaps only inferior to the top-most Major Cosmos Absolute Beings like Tyron. Currently, it was not the Void Beast which was harassing Merlin but Merlin who was actively harassing the Void Beast.

"Whoosh."

Finally, Tyron arrived. Over the past few days, he had rushed here as fast as he could. Initially, he thought that Merlin would be in danger but surprisingly when he arrived, he had witnessed an unexpected scene. Merlin was outdoing the Void Beast at every corner. In terms of pure strength, Merlin was also slightly more powerful than the Void Beast.

Tyron was one of the top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings so he had spent a lot of time crossing-swords with these Void Beasts. Therefore, he was able to tell from a single glance that this Void Beast was not ordinary. Its ability was quite extraordinary. Even a few squads would not be able to stop this Void Beast, much less Merlin's squad of merely three thousand over people.

Yet, Merlin was suppressing the Void Beast. Something must have changed in the process.

"Roar…"

Finally, the Void Beast was cowed. With a loud roar, it turned around to escape and dove into the pitch-black Void Sea. Merlin did not give chase. Tyron had already warned them to never enter the Void Sea because even Major Cosmos Absolute Beings were known to get lost in it.

Seeing the Void Beast escape, Merlin felt a little frustrated but he knew that he was able to suppress the Void Beast. Most of the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings could suppress a Void Beast but could not kill it.

These Void Beasts were extremely difficult to kill. Even Tyron could only kill a limited number of Void Beasts. Thus, driving them back into the Void Sea was considered a success.

"The Void Beast has finally been driven away. Our barrier hasn't been breached."

"Look, isn't that Sir Tyron?"

After the Void Beast was chased away, everyone was ecstatic and overjoyed. They had just escaped the jaws of death, thus many of the Free Beings and Controllers were reeling in joy.

Many people also noticed Tyron next to them, which put their hearts further at ease. Even if another Void Beast were to appear, they would not have to fear.

"Teacher Tyron!"

Naturally, Merlin also noticed Tyron and immediately came to his side. Merlin's Illusory World had now stabilized and was no longer chaotic. However, over five thousand people were still in his world.

Tyron continued to stare at Merlin in bewilderment. He was not just a Major Cosmos Absolute Being but the top Major Cosmos Absolute Being. Hence, he discovered Merlin's situation with a single glance.

"Your… Your world expanded to over three thousand Latitude Cosmoses?"

Tyron was astonished. Although he knew that Merlin's Illusory World was infinitely unique, he still could not conceal the amazement in his heart. Back when Merlin was recruiting his squad, the Illusory World was only about the size of one thousand five hundred over Latitude Cosmoses.

Right now, it had grown once over to more than three thousand Latitude Cosmoses. Such a growth rate was ridiculous. Even a top Major Cosmos Absolute Being like him found it unbelievable.

Merlin knew that he could not hide this progress, so he nodded. "That's right, Teacher Tyron. When my Illusory World fought against the Void Beast, the world was chaotic but its essence was unharmed. Therefore, the world made use of this time to expand freely. It's now equivalent to over three thousand Latitude Cosmoses."

"It was also because of the expansion that I was able to accommodate more contenders. I combined Controller Caesar's squad with mine. Luckily, we were able to withstand the Void Beast."

Merlin explained in detail. Although it was truly bizarre and mind-blowing, in the end, Tyron nodded calmly.

It seemed that this explained how Merlin was able to fight back against that powerful Void Beast and ultimately defeat it.

"Your luck is quite good and helped you escape but, in the end, the Void Sea's barrier still fell…"

Tyron heaved a long sigh and said regrettably.

Chapter 1055: Entering the Void Sea!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"What? Fallen?"

Merlin, Azulon, Caesar, and the others were crestfallen. They had worked so hard to protect the barrier from being breached by the Void Beast but now, the barrier had fallen?

It was not surprising that Merlin and the others gave such a big reaction. This barrier of the Void Sea was critical that it was almost the final barrier. If even this barrier had fallen, destruction was imminent.

Seeing the scandalized looks on Merlin and the others, Tyron replied helplessly, "Yes, it has fallen. You've worked very hard to protect this barrier but other places were not as lucky. This time, something must've happened in the Void Sea. The Void Beasts attacked in unison. Almost the entire barrier had been breached. Other than a small handful who managed to stop the Void Beasts with great difficulty, every other place had been breached. Our barrier is now riddled with holes. At least twenty Void Beasts had broken through the barrier."

Tyron relayed the news to them in detail. This news was truly shocking. Previously, they were committed to guarding this barrier but in the end, the barrier had not been safeguarded.

More than twenty Void Beasts had broken through the barrier and there were even more Void Beasts behind them which were continuously attacking the barrier. The entire world faced imminent destruction.

It would not be easy to herd these Void Beasts back into the Void Sea again.

In that regard, even the five top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings were powerless. For a time, everyone's moods sunk as they stood quietly in the air.

After a moment, Merlin asked with a dejected air, "Teacher Tyron, is there nothing else we can do? We cannot just sit here and await our deaths!"

Certainly, they could not sit around and await their deaths. Merlin knew very well that no matter what kind of circumstances they were in, they could not give up. In the past, he also faced countless life and death situations. It was because he did not give up that he got to where he was now.

Currently, only twenty Void Beasts had broken through the barrier. They still had a chance.

A glint flashed across Tyron's eyes. In a deep voice, he said, "Yes, we cannot give up. However, it's too difficult to herd these Void Beasts back into the Void Sea. Even the joint forces of the five top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings aren't viable. Therefore, we suspect that something must've happened in the Void Sea. Us old folks are preparing to enter the Void Sea and find out what happened."

"Enter the Void Sea?"

Merlin was confused but Azulon and Caesar beside him understood what it meant. This was the Void Sea. Even a Major Cosmos Absolute Being appeared infinitesimal in the Void Sea. If they encountered a large number of Void Beasts, even a Major Cosmos Absolute Being could die.

For this reason, the Void Sea had always been a forbidden place for every Free Being or Controller. Even Major Cosmos Absolute Beings did not dare step foot in it lightly.

This time, however, Tyron was going to enter the Void Zone. It would be akin to passing through the nine gates of hell.

"Teacher…"

Merlin opened his mouth to speak but ultimately remained silent. So what if the Void Sea was dangerous? If they did not enter the Void Sea, then there was no way to stop the Void Beast.

A gradual smile appeared on Tyron's lips. "Haha, the Void Sea isn't a graveyard. It may be dangerous but it also presents an opportunity. The Void Sea had always been a forbidden place but if it could nurture powerful existences such as the Void Beast, then there must be some secret. If someone could uncover these secrets, then perhaps we would have a chance to advance further and achieve our desired realm. Hence, there are reasons for us to enter the Void Sea. One, we can find out what happened in the Void Sea, and two, we might find a way to get rid of the Void Beast. Furthermore, there's a chance of discovering a new opportunity, so, it isn't so scary."

Tyron's words made sense. While the Void Sea was dangerous, it also contained great secrets and great opportunities. Many of the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings longed to enter the Void Sea. It was just that they had always been held back by other concerns. Now that the situation had become so critical, they were forced to take a trip into the Void Sea.

"Teacher, if all the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings are leaving, what should we do about the Void Beasts?"

Merlin asked.

"Of course, you'll have to form several squads to safeguard some of the important regions. As for the other places, it'll boil down to luck. The Void Beasts represents destruction. They'll swallow Latitude Regions one after another. This is a disaster…"

Tyron sighed again. He had no other solution as there were more than twenty Void Beasts and counting. The moment the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings left, no power could dispel the Void Beasts.

"Teacher, is it only the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings who can enter the Void Sea?"

After a brief silence, Merlin continued asking.

"There's no such rule. It's just that the Void Sea is more dangerous. So, only a Major Cosmos Absolute Being has hopes of reaching the deeper ends. As for the other Controllers, entering the Void Sea will be dangerous."

"Oh? If that's the case, with my current abilities, can I enter the Void Sea?"

Merlin peered closely at Tyron. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind but this was probably his only chance to enter the Void Sea. Plus, there might be new opportunities in the Void Sea.

Otherwise, even if he remained outside the Void Sea, it would not be possible to defeat the Void Beasts.

Tyron's eyes shined brightly. He considered momentarily before answering, "Your current abilities are just a little bit below mine. However, you only have this power due to the five thousand over people in your body. If you want to enter the Void Zone, you must get their consensus. After all, not everyone wants to venture into the Void Sea."

Merlin nodded. He had of course considered this as well. Upon receiving Tyron's positive affirmation, he immediately explained the situation to Azulon, Caesar, and the others.

The five thousand over contenders in Merlin's Illusory World had already found out the gravity of the situation. After listening to Merlin's explanation, some of them made their choice.

Out of a total of five thousand over people, just as Tyron predicted, not everyone would take the risk with Merlin. Unexpectedly, both Azulon and Caesar did not leave. In the end, only a few hundred people left, so there were still about five thousand people who stayed.

These people wanted to follow Merlin into the mysterious and danger-ridden Void Sea. Combined, they were comparable to a powerful Major Cosmos Absolute Being, which guaranteed their safety to some extent. Thus, they also wanted to try their luck at finding some great opportunities. It was far better than waiting to die outside the Void Sea.

After all, if the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings fail to find a solution to deal with the Void Beasts in the Void Sea, then sooner or later, the Latitude Regions outside would be wiped out by the Void Beasts. When that time came, even if they hide in the most obscure corner, it would be useless. Everything would be swallowed by the Void Beasts, so it was almost equivalent to awaiting death.

Those who did not want to await their deaths wanted to venture into the Void Sea.

"Very well, there are still five thousand people. Although my power decreased slightly, it's not too much. Teacher, are we going to enter the Void Sea now?"

Merlin's heart felt a little more secure now that he still had five thousand people with him. His power was just second to the five top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings.

"Of course, the sooner the better. Let's go!"

With a wave of his hand, Tyron led Merlin and stepped into the pitch-black Void Sea.

Chapter 1056: Abnormal

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Void Sea, a tried and true forbidden place, was a place feared by even the top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings. The moment Merlin entered the Void Sea, he could sense its peculiarity.

Originally, a Controller like Merlin had the gift of perception. Any Latitude Cosmos could be easily deciphered with Merlin's perception ability. So, usually, he would have a clear idea of everything around him.

However, when he came to the Void Sea, it did not contain any energy. It was just an endless stretch of void. Since there was no energy, his perception ability was rendered useless.

Therefore, he could only rely on his visual abilities and see a short range around himself. It was almost like becoming a Normie.

"The Void Sea is truly intimidating! In such a place, how can the Void Beasts survive?"

Now, Merlin finally understood why the Void Beasts wanted to leave the Void Sea. The environment here was so terrible that even the Void Beasts could not withstand it. Hence, they were eager to leave the Void Sea.

"The Void Sea is vast and endless, how are we going to search?"

Merlin asked Tyron who was standing next to him. Tyron did not know either. He simply entered the Void Sea to search for an opportunity, just like the other Major Cosmos Absolute Beings.

As for where the opportunity was, he did not know.

"We'll take it one step at a time. Hopefully, we don't run into any Void Beast."

Tyron also did not have a plan.

So, together with Merlin, Tyron wandered around the Void Sea. The warning that the Void Beasts were dangerous was true. They had just arrived in the Void Sea a while ago but they had already encountered a total of five Void Beasts.

Although the Void Beasts typically traveled alone, as usual, there were exceptions to everything. They once encountered three Void Beasts that acted together. Jointly, Merlin and Tyron were able to chase them away.

However, from this experience, Merlin also realized the gap between Tyron and himself. Initially, Merlin thought that combined with over five thousand people, he was not too far away from Tyron's level.

Through actual combat, Merlin found out that the gap between Tyron and himself was huge. Tyron was able to fight two of the stronger Void Beasts and still held an upper hand throughout the battle. On the other hand, Merlin was only barely able to fight one Void Beast.

Recently, the number of Void Beasts they encountered had increased. This was abnormal. Although none of the Void Beasts pose a real threat to them, this situation caused Tyron and Merlin to heighten their guards.

"There are more and more Void Beasts. Does it mean that we're heading toward the Void Beasts' old nest?"

Tyron said somewhat uncertainly.

The Void Beasts often traveled alone, so no one knew if they had a nest. If the Void Beast had a colony somewhere and they happened to stumble into it, there might be a lot of trouble.

"Teacher Tyron, what do we do? Should we continue walking?"

Merlin asked hesitantly. Looking at the dark space ahead, Merlin had a feeling that it would be dangerous.

Tyron was struggling. Honestly, he wanted to take a look. The Void Beasts had been roaming around for a long time and Tyron also knew about their existence a long time ago.

However, after so many years, their understanding of the Void Beasts was still painfully scarce. If they managed to find the Void Beasts' colony, they might understand the Void Beasts better and perhaps even discover their weaknesses. This would be extremely significant.

After considering this, Tyron had decided.

"Let's move forward and take a look. However, we must be more careful. There might be a large number of Void Beasts in front!"

Tyron warned carefully. Merlin knew that while Tyron's abilities were powerful, if they were surrounded by a large number of Void Beasts, there was no hope of escaping.

Therefore, both of them moved carefully and retracted their aura as much as possible. To be fair, retracting their auras was quite inconsequential because there was no energy fluctuation in the Void Sea. As long as they did not directly run into a Void Beast, they would not be discovered.

Their vigilance paid off. They had just moved forward a few steps when they met several Void Beasts head-on. Fortunately, they evaded in time and were not discovered.

At this time, Merlin found it fortunate that their perception could not be used here. This way, it was much easier to evade the Void Beasts.

Both their speeds were not slow. Soon, they encountered more and more Void Beasts and the frequency also increased. Finally, they could not avoid running into two Void Beasts.

These two Void Beasts bumped straight into Merlin and Tyron, so they could not evade. As a result, an inevitable battle exploded.

For some reason, the usually lazy Void Beasts turned inexplicably vicious. They went berserk and attacked Merlin and Tyron crazily.

It was lucky that the Void Sea prevented the energy fluctuations of the battle from spreading. Otherwise, such a large commotion would have attracted all the surrounding Void Beasts.

Along the way, Merlin saw more than a few dozen Void Beasts. If they were surrounded, there was no way to escape.

These two Void Beasts were tightly suppressed by Tyron. They knew that they could not win, so they tried to escape.

"We must now allow them to escape. Capture them in our worlds and imprison it!"

Tyron said panickily. At this time, they could not allow these two Void Beasts to escape. If the Void Beasts escaped, Tyron and Merlin's whereabouts would be exposed. In such a dense population of Void Beasts, this was akin to suicide.

Therefore, Tyron could only use his world to suppress it. His world was able to suppress one Void Beast but two would be dangerous.

After all, his natural order was not as solid as Merlin's.

Merlin thought for a moment, he could probably suppress one. Hence, he nodded in agreement. "Teacher Tyron, we'll each suppress one Void Beast!"

With that, he wielded the Illusory World. The Illusory World descended and engulfed the Void Beast, suppressing it with tremendous world power.

If it was only Merlin's Illusory World, it would not be possible but with the support of over five thousand contenders, Merlin was somehow able to suppress the Void Beast. Nevertheless, this exerted a huge burden on Merlin.

"Teacher Tyron, let's continue ahead. I'm sure the Void Beasts' colony must be in front."

Merlin said while keeping the Void Beast suppressed. He turned his gaze on the void in front. Although it was pitch-black, Merlin knew that a shocking scene awaited them.

Tyron was silent for a moment, seemingly suppressing the Void Beast completely. Then, he saw that Merlin could still hold on. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, we'll move forward. However, if we go any further, it'll be a point of no return."

"Haha, this is the Void Sea, how can there be no danger? How rare is it for us to find the Void Beasts' colony? These two Void Beasts' behaviors were so abnormal. There must be a great secret hidden in it. Anything that could drive a low-intelligence Void Beast to go berserk must be extraordinary."

From these two berserk Void Beasts, Merlin had a premonition that whatever lied in front was extraordinary. It might be an earth-shattering secret.

Tyron nodded and did not hesitate anymore. Together with Merlin, he flew forward swiftly.

Chapter 1057: The Five Regions Assembled!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After flying for a short while, Tyron stopped. They dared not even make a sound as a great number of Void Beasts had appeared in front of them. There were at least a thousand of them crowded together.

More than a thousand Void Beasts – this number was too terrifying. Forget about a thousand. Even a hundred of them could easily wreck countless Latitude Regions. All Free Beings and Controllers could not do anything against them.

With this in mind, Tyron and Merlin felt a lingering fear. They had decided to come here without knowing what they would ultimately encounter.

"Don't say anything first. Look at these Void Beasts. What are they doing in their gathering?"

Tyron asked softly, cautiously.

There were so many Void Beasts. They usually did not live together but had now assembled here. It was far too strange. Nonetheless, the Void Sea was a forbidden area for Free Beings and Controllers in the first place. It was not surprising that there would be endless mysteries in this place.

Thus, Tyron and Merlin hid secretly on one side, waiting in silence. This wait lasted for ten years.

Ten years – forget about Tyron, even to Merlin, this was a negligible number. It passed by in the blink of an eye. Just when Tyron and Merlin thought they would have to wait longer, something finally changed among these Void Beasts.

"Rumble."

The Void Sea had no way of transmitting energy fluctuations but Merlin and Tyron could distinctly feel that their surroundings seemed to have trembled slightly.

Following that, in the pitch-black sweep of the Void Sea, a gigantic light gate gradually emerged. This light gate illuminated the surrounding area by tens of thousands of miles. Its radiance was filled with a gentle force that caused one to feel tranquil.

"This… What's this?"

Tyron and Merlin were astounded deep down because this force made them feel so serene as if they would willingly throw themselves into that massive light gate.

Merlin had a feeling that there was surely some great secret behind that light gate. Moreover, it would be a huge opportunity that all Controllers had dreamed of. Even so, with the current situation where Void Beasts were everywhere, they dared not act rashly.

They waited for the Void Beasts to enter the light gate. When there were about ten or so Void Beasts left, only then did Merlin and Tyron start to move. They planned to follow these Void Beasts and sneak stealthily into the light gate.

However, at this point, four figures suddenly rushed out. These figures even immediately started to clash against the remaining Void Beasts and they were not losing either.

"What? The Absolute Beings of the Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern Regions? They've discovered this place?"

Realizing this, Tyron no longer hesitated and rushed out with Merlin. As the Central Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being, he was the mightiest existence. The moment Tyron attacked, he triumphed over two Void Beasts instantly and Merlin was also contending against another Void Beast.

Therefore, in a short moment, the remaining Void Beasts had been chased away. It was just that these Void Beasts longed to enter this gigantic light gate, so they constantly snarled at a distance, still unwilling to leave.

"Swoosh swoosh."

The Absolute Beings from the other four regions had noticed Tyron and swiftly gathered here, wearing looks of delight.

"Tryon, you've found this place too."

The Eastern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being said with a smile.

Tyron frowned and swept his gaze over the four of them, then said in a low voice, "Do you know about the secret of this light gate? What's inside?"

It was not surprising that Tyron would suspect this. The four of them had acted collectively. They had reunited long before and their goal was obvious too, which was to enter the light gate.

"Well…"

The Eastern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being was somewhat hesitant. The Southern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being frowned and asked Tyron, "Could it be that you didn't come because you know about the secret here?"

Tyron's face did not change as he said coldly, "Without meaning to, we came here by accident and saw that there were many Void Beasts gathered here. Therefore, we hid on one side."

The Southern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being barked out a bitter, helpless laugh. "How lucky of you. Did you come here by accident? We entered the Void Sea before you did and noticed the abnormality of these Void Beasts. We learned from an Absolute Being who had explored the Void Sea before that the Void Sea is a very special place. It contains the Power of Destruction and Rebirth. We call this the Origin!"

"The Origin? The Power of Destruction and Rebirth?"

The eyes of Tyron and Merlin brightened. Could it be that the Origin was in this light gate before them?

As if guessing what Merlin and Tyron were thinking, the Southern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being nodded. "That's right, the Origin is before us. However, we're merely hypothesizing. In the Origin, even the Void Beasts yearn to obtain the Power of Destruction because they represent destruction. If they obtained this Power of Destruction, they could continue to grow. We suspected that these Void Beasts wish to enter the Origin, obtain the Power of Destruction and be born as a Void Beast King."

"A Void Beast King? What threat does it pose to us?"

Merlin suddenly piped up and asked.

"Tyron, who's this?"

The Major Cosmos Absolute Beings of the other four regions stared at Merlin suspiciously. Naturally, with one glance, they could see the tremendous power contained in Merlin's body. However, he was merely a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. However, Merlin was able to contend against a formidable Void Beast earlier and was only slightly inferior to them.

"My disciple, Merlin! This time I've brought him here in search of an opportunity. This Void Beast King that you speak of, is it as we've once predicted?"

Tyron's expression appeared rather solemn. This was not a good thing.

The Southern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being nodded. "That's right, it's just as we predicted. Once a Void Beast King is born, we're done for. Not only does a Void Beast King has a strength that far surpasses most Void Beasts, more importantly, it can summon all Void Beasts. It's like a pack of wolves – with an alpha, they would form a pack. It would be a destructive force that's nearly unstoppable!"

Merlin understood now. He did not expect things would be so serious.

Void Beasts currently did not have a Void Beast King, so they were scattered and unorganized. Even if they broke through the barrier, it would be one or two of them. This was not much of a threat for they would only cause some destruction.

However, if a King was produced among the Void Beasts, that would be horrifying. A Void Beast King could summon all Void Beasts. Thousands of Void Beasts, mighty and majestic or even more, surging forth together – what could stop them?

It was likely that all of the Latitude Regions would be easily wiped out. No Free Being or Controller was able to stop a force like this.

"We mustn't let the Void Beasts produce a Void Beast King!"

Tyron immediately understood the four other Absolute Beings' plan. Thus, they looked toward that gigantic light gate. Perhaps when they stepped in, they would face endless danger.

Nonetheless, they had no other choice. Moreover, behind this light gate, there were opportunities too. They did not care for the Power of Destruction but if they could obtain the Power of Rebirth, they would have a way to deal with the Void Beasts.

Danger and opportunity coexisted in the Origin behind the light gate!

"Haha, alright. Today, we five top Absolute Beings will join forces and try our luck in the Origin…"

The five most preeminent Controllers, also known as Creators, represented the greatest force among Free Beings and Controllers. Only they could stop this calamity.

"Swish."

Merlin followed the five of them too and immediately flew into the light gate.

Chapter 1058: The Power of Destruction!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The top five Absolute Beings were the most preeminent existences among the Controllers.

One by one, they entered the gigantic light gate. Merlin trailed behind them. He had experienced many worlds but after entering this light gate, he lost his sense of direction.

It seemed that there was no direction behind this light gate at all. He could not even sense the world's barrier as if this was not even a world.

Nonetheless, Merlin soon noticed what was special about this place.

"Hoo…"

It was a gale. This gale contained terrifying energy that could easily annihilate a Latitude Region. Even the most preeminent Major Cosmos Absolute Beings felt fearful.

However, this gale was swiftly fading away. As it was fading, it was constantly being derived as well.

"Destruction and rebirth…"

Merlin blurted this out. Naturally, he thought of this point. Destruction and rebirth – this was the Origin's unique power.

When he saw this gale, there was no doubt that this was the Origin!

"Look quickly – the Void Beasts in front, have they gone mad?"

The Eastern Region Absolute Being looked toward the Void Beasts in the distance, feeling incredulous.

Merlin followed his gaze and saw that there was a large number of Void Beasts in front, formed into groups. They were the ones who had passed through the light gate from the outside. Now, they could no longer locate the light gate.

Currently, these Void Beasts seemed to have spotted something "delicious". They were frantically throwing themselves at a black cloud that had appeared before them but this cloud was filled with eerie power. Strangely, each Void Beast that plunged into it was instantly turned into smithereens.

"Poof poof."

Nonetheless, these Void Beasts were not afraid at all. Wave after wave, they frenziedly lunged toward that black cloud.

"Destruction, destruction – this black cloud contains the Power of Destruction!"

At last, Tyron spoke gradually. Everyone noticed as well that the black cloud was filled with the Power of Destruction. Moreover, the Void Beasts themselves represented destruction.

Perhaps by entering the black cloud, the Void Beasts would obtain momentous benefits. However, the Power of Destruction in the black cloud was even able to easily annihilate the Void Beasts who were creatures of destruction. It was enough to show how scary it was.

If this left the Origin, no matter how many Latitude Regions there were, all would be swept clean and wiped out.

Although the black cloud was formidable, annihilating one Void Beast after another, the number of Void Beasts was far too many. One died after another without any signs of stopping.

"That's not right. These Void Beasts are simply rushing to their deaths. They want to move one step further. Evolution?"

They watched the Void Beasts heading into the black cloud one after another, easily destroyed. Therefore, they were not just seeking their deaths. Rather, this was a filtering process.

"Buzz."

Finally, a Void Beast of tremendous proportions and monstrous force dashed into the black cloud in one move. Instantly, the entire black cloud started to tremble violently.

Moreover, the other Void Beasts finally stopped as well. Their eyes glinted with apprehension as they stared at the black cloud which was stirring ceaselessly. Wisps of a colossal force slowly seeped out from it.

Now, the other Void Beasts seemed frightened as well. They began to hunt everywhere for other black clouds, plunging into these in unending waves.

"Roar…"

After a few days, an earth-shattering roar erupted from the black cloud. Soon, a pitch-black Void Beast whose size was ten times larger than an average Void Beast emerged. It was a leviathan. Even its body and build were an endless deterrent force.

This enormous Void Beast was that previous Void Beast who had successfully entered the black cloud after much difficulty. Now, this Void Beast had undergone a complete transformation. Its strength was more than ten times its previous self.

A Void Beast's strength was terrifying in the first place. Now that it was enhanced ten times over, it was difficult to fathom how formidable it was. Furthermore, when this colossal and special Void Beast unleashed its furious roar, the surrounding Void Beasts appeared to weaken as they approached this Void Beast like it was their king.

Of course, there was still a large number of Void Beasts who were looking for other black clouds even more frantically. It was as if they wished to undergo the same transformation as this Void Beast.

"As I thought, they were filtering out the stronger Void Beasts. These are still not real kings. I've heard that there can only be one true king. Still, the king's subordinates will include a few formidable Void Beasts as commanders. I'm guessing that this black cloud allows these ordinary Void Beasts to evolve into commanders. Thereafter, from this group of commanders, the true king will be born!"

Tyron's face was gloomy as he glared unwaveringly at these Void Beasts.

Things were getting troublesome now. It turned out that these Void Beasts were able to utilize the Power of Destruction in the Origin to evolve. Although the king was not yet born, there was no doubt that as the number of commanders increased, the king would finally be born. It was just a matter of time.

"We can't go on waiting like this like sitting ducks. If the Void Beasts produce their king, we'll be powerless and can only wait for devastation. Since the Power of Destruction can transform the Void Beasts, the Origin's Power of Rebirth can make us stronger too or even transform us, boosting us to the level we've always yearned!"

The Eastern Absolute Being's eyes flashed with a hopeful look. The others thought of this as well. They had gone through so many trials and tribulations and braved such dangers to follow the Void Beasts into the Origin. They did not do all this just to wait around for their deaths. They were looking for their chance as well.

Of course, the Power of Destruction was not of much help to them but in the Origin, there was not just the Power of Destruction but also the corresponding Power of Rebirth.

Perhaps this was the opportunity for the Controllers!

Therefore, a new motivation emerged in this small party. Although they were unfamiliar with the Origin, they knew that since this place was filled with the Power of Destruction where the Void Beasts were assembled, they had to go in the opposite direction. By taking a path that ran counter to the Void Beasts', they would surely encounter the Power of Rebirth.

Naturally, Merlin wanted to follow them as well but unlike the rest, he was interested in the Power of Destruction. Therefore, after a moment of deliberation, Merlin came up with his plan. His surroundings were filled with the omnipresent Power of Destruction. He purposefully used the Illusory World to draw in a bit of the Power of Destruction.

This Power of Destruction was only a tiny amount which Merlin could still suppress. Thus, it did not affect him much.

With that, after Merlin had suppressed this strand of the Power of Destruction in the Illusory World, he followed Tyron and the rest. They flew in the opposite direction of the Void Beasts, looking for the Power of Rebirth in the Origin.

Perhaps this was the Controllers' only chance!

Chapter 1059: Light Source

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Origin was immense. Tyron and the rest had flown for a very long time and still, they had not located the Power of Rebirth. They were even starting to suspect if they had gone in the wrong direction.

Nonetheless, they dared not turn back to search. If they bumped into the Void Beasts, they would be in trouble, especially since a master-level existence had been born among the Void Beasts. None of the five most preeminent Major Cosmos Absolute Beings were a match for the master-level Void Beasts.

Therefore, they dared not turn back. All they could do was put on a bold face and continue forward.

Compared to the anxiety of Tyron and the rest, Merlin appeared rather calm. This was because in his Illusory World, he was gradually releasing the strand of Power of Destruction he had absorbed. It was now wreaking havoc in the Illusory World.

Although Merlin had only absorbed one strand of the Power of Destruction, explosions were occurring everywhere in the Illusory World, exhibiting signs of annihilation. Therefore, this strand of Power of Destruction was slowly growing as well.

Wherever there was destruction, the Power of Destruction would grow in strength!

Although the Power of Destruction was slowly strengthening, Merlin did not stop it as its presence seemed to cause his Illusory World to expand at a greater rate. Initially, it was merely equivalent to around three thousand Latitude Cosmoses. Now, it had enlarged significantly.

Three thousand and one hundred, three thousand and two hundred, three thousand and three hundred…

Merlin's Illusory World was swiftly expanding but Merlin had fallen into deep contemplation. The simple expansion of the world was no longer that important to him. Rather, he was pondering upon the Power of Destruction.

"The Power of Destruction – what kind of force is it? What's its essence?"

Merlin wished to understand the Power of Destruction's essence. He wished to ascertain why destruction would produce the Power of Destruction. If he could do so, maybe his world would be further perfected.

A perfect world – every Controller found it difficult to imagine this.

Even though each Controller controlled a world of their own, this world was not perfect. Many other factors were involved to perfect a world.

For example, there was an issue of a Latitude Cosmos' limit in accommodation. If one wished to accommodate more contenders or expand the world's limits, one must continuously perfect their world.

If the world was constantly perfected, its limits would continually expand. It could consume more energy and thus grow more massive in the future.

However, a perfected world was not so easily attained. Even with Merlin, his Illusory World was far from being perfect. Right now, he had not understood the Power of Destruction.

If he gradually comprehend this, then the Illusory World, in the future, would produce the Root of Destruction. With the Root of Destruction in charge, the future Illusory World would be invincible. No matter how it was destroyed, it would not be affected. Furthermore, this would even strengthen Merlin's Illusory World. The greater the devastation, the more formidable the energy of the Illusory World.

Of course, it was not that easy to be enlightened about the Root of Destruction. Therefore, Merlin was no longer that passionate about the Power of Rebirth of the Origin. As long as he could be enlightened about the Power of Destruction's essence and condense the Root of Destruction's natural order in the Illusory World, his Illusory World would be as stable as a boulder, truly surpassing all of the current Major Cosmos Absolute Beings.

At that point, even Tyron would be no match for him. Therefore, the current continuous and ceaseless expansion of Merlin's Illusory World was no big deal.

Three thousand and eight hundred, four thousand…

In the blink of an eye, Merlin's Illusory World had expanded into a fearsome world comparable to four thousand Latitude Cosmoses. Among the Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings, this was considered a formidable existence. Although it was still not at its peak, it had surpassed the majority of Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings. After all, if Merlin could enlarge his world to the point where it was comparable to ten thousand Latitude Cosmoses, he would be a true Major Cosmos Absolute Being.

Merlin was not worried. It was not difficult for his Illusory World to grow until it was on par with a Major Cosmos because presently, he had the Power of Destruction. He was continuously learning more about the Power of Destruction, causing the Illusory World to expand without stopping at an astonishing rate. This was even faster than those Controllers who had refined their Latitude Cosmos.

This was thanks to Merlin's incomparably sturdy natural order. Otherwise, if other Controllers had dared to absorb the Power of Destruction into their world, they would have collapsed long ago.

…

No one knew how vast the Origin was. Tyron and the rest had flown for over a century. Other than the sweep of darkness that surrounded them everywhere, they did not notice anything else.

There was not even a trace of the Power of Destruction left. Although they had discovered nothing because there was no Power of Destruction, they did not bump into any Void Beasts either, so they did not encounter any danger.

"This Origin is so enormous. When will we find the Power of Rebirth?"

At the moment, even Tyron was beginning to get somewhat anxious. It had been so long and they did not know how many master-level Void Beasts had been born. If the king was truly produced among the master-level Void Beasts, they would not stand a chance.

It was not just Tyron. The other four Major Cosmos Absolute Beings also wore despondent looks. Their initial optimism had faded long ago. Now, they were even suspecting if the Power of Rebirth existed.

"Hoo…"

Suddenly, in the endless darkness, everyone felt a hint of breeze. This breeze was even mixed with a floral fragrance.

"A breeze? Energy doesn't even exist here, how can there be wind? Moreover, it's pitch-dark all around and heavy with lifelessness. How can there be a floral fragrance?"

The top five Major Cosmos Absolute Beings were preeminent existences among the Controllers. Naturally, they noticed what was unusual about this and their hearts were enlivened.

A place with a floral fragrance proved the existence of life. Perhaps this was the Power of Rebirth that they had been arduously seeking for over the past century.

"Search, we must search for the source of this fragrance!"

Tyron was decisive and cried out loudly. They did not have to go through an exhausting search as they moved further ahead, they could smell the fragrance of flowers.

Furthermore, this floral fragrance grew more intense. They did not have to search on purpose to locate the direction of this fragrance as it was somewhere up ahead.

Everyone became excited and even Merlin raised his head slightly. He no longer focused his attention on understanding the Power of Destruction's essence but started to search along with the rest.

"Look quickly, that… What's that?"

Suddenly, the Eastern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being yelled out hoarsely. As they looked to where he pointed, they saw a dazzling light that was vaguely like an immense light source. Nonetheless, no one in the group was able to discern the scene in the light source.

"In this light, I sense tenderness."

"I sense forgiveness."

"I sense vitality."

"I sense order."

Tyron and the rest stopped in their tracks. The radiance in the enormous light source had blanketed all of them and waves of extraordinary sensations sprang up in them.

They had not felt like this for a very long time. This light caused these preeminent Major Cosmos Absolute Beings to feel as if they should bow down in worship.

"The Power of Rebirth, this must be the Origin's Power of Rebirth!"

The Eastern Region Major Cosmos Absolute Being shouted emotionally, his voice cracking. Everyone stared at that enormous beam of radiance, their faces filled with ecstatic surprise.

"Whether or not it's the Power of Rebirth, we'll know once we enter and take a look."

Tyron breathed in deeply. Taking the lead, he launched himself toward that massive ball of light.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh."

By this point, no one was being modest. They all flew frantically toward that light source. Although Tyron was the foremost contender, no one among the top five Absolute Beings would wish to be surpassed. They had come to the Origin this time to achieve a breakthrough, so no one would be content with allowing Tyron to enter the light source first.

Therefore, everyone flew toward the light source, striving to be first. Only Merlin stared steadily at that light source. He could sense the power of order, vitality, tenderness, and so on. Moreover, the strand of Power of Destruction in his body appeared to feel rather uneasy as if it had encountered a threatening force.

"The Power of Rebirth…"

Merlin mumbled softly. Only when there was no one else beside him, he slowly flew toward that light source. All this while, Merlin had never wished to enter places that had exceeded his imagination. Whether it was the Void Sea or the Origin or this light source, Merlin did not wish to enter.

However, if he did not take the risk by entering, he would end up empty-handed.

"I'll go in and see if it's the Power of Rebirth in the Origin?"

At last, Merlin clenched his jaw and made up his mind. He must enter this light source.

The closer he got to the light source, the more Merlin's heart palpitated. Although this sensation was not dangerous, he still felt these palpitations as if he was about to face some grand, noble existence or some imposing power.

"Buzz."

When Merlin stepped into the light source, he shuddered. Soon, he was dazzled by brightness before things gradually cleared up. When Merlin was able to open his eyes once more, he saw that they had reached a gigantic space.

This space was peculiar indeed. There was light everywhere but there was not a soul in sight. Furthermore, countless colorful bubbles were floating in thin air.

These bubbles were gorgeous and had vivid hues. They looked incomparably magnificent. Nonetheless, whether it was Tyron or the other four Absolute Beings, they were rather bewildered and dared to go in so rashly.

"Tyron, what do you feel? From these bubbles, I sense a vigorous vitality…"

The Eastern Region Absolute Being frowned slightly as he spoke.

These bubbles were strange indeed. No matter how they tried, they could not see what was going on inside. Even so, deep within them, they sensed a force that attracted them to these bubbles.

Tyron did not reply right away but asked the rest, "Did you feel that?"

"I feel it. Such a warm intimate feeling. It's like a longing. This is the power of the natural order in our worlds. It's as if these bubbles are targeting our natural order, calling us."

The Southern Region Absolute Being said quietly. Earlier, he had kept observing and searching carefully and finally found a clue. It turned out that this longing came from the natural order's power in their worlds.

"The Power of Rebirth… Since we've come here, there's no need to be afraid. Come on, we'll follow the call in each of our hearts and seek out these bubbles. Maybe each of us will reap unexpected benefits!"

Tyron drew in a deep breath and said determinedly. He could not sense anything dangerous about these bubbles, so now he could only obey the call deep in his heart and go to those bubbles. He felt that these bubbles were very special. Perhaps they would reap unimaginable benefits.

"Haha, since we're here, what else is there to be frightened of?"

The Southern Region Absolute Being laughed loudly then flew toward a gigantic bubble before anyone else. In a flash, he was submerged in the bubble. Following that, everyone stared closely at that bubble. Other than a slight tremor at the beginning, the bubble did not change at all. It was very calm. It seemed that for a short while, nothing would change.

"Let's go. We can no longer contact the Southern Region Absolute Being and now each of us can only seek our opportunity. Whether we succeed or fail depends on this!"

Tyron glanced at one of the enormous bubbles. He sensed that this bubbled seemed to be beckoning him over. They had gone through various difficulties from the Void Sea to the Origin, then searched for these bubbles in the Origin. This was practically their only hope.

Otherwise, by the time the Void Beasts had produced a king, they would be powerless from then on. Unless they could hide in the Origin forever, they would be in great danger if they met the master of the Void Beasts.

The Void Beasts were making progress and so will they!

"Merlin, have you sensed the call?"

Tyron did not neglect to express concern for Merlin who came in last.

Merlin shook his head. Indeed, he did not feel any call. From these bubbles, he could not sense anything unusual as well. It seemed that there were still some differences between him and the top five Absolute Beings.

"You don't feel a call? I wonder if this is a blessing or a curse… Oh well, just wait here quietly then. If anything changes, leave immediately."

With that, Tyron swiftly flew toward the bubble that had been calling him. In a flash, the original group of six was reduced to Merlin alone.

Merlin had lied. It was not that he did not sense any calling but the thing that called to him was not the bubbles but something deep among those bubbles.

Merlin did not know why he would feel such an intense sensation. Still, after Tyron and the rest had entered their respective bubbles, he continued flying forward. He sensed that something there was calling strongly to him.

He passed by one bubble after another. The further he went, the fewer the bubbles. Furthermore, some bubbles had terrifying volumes, a few times more massive than the average bubble. Merlin did not know what this meant.

"Since I have this feeling, I wonder if other Free Beings and Controllers would feel the same calling?"

Merlin's heart leaped slightly. He was accommodating four thousand people in his Illusory World and they were all Controllers and Free Beings. Initially, they had no hope of entering the Void Sea but being in Merlin's Illusory World, they had now entered the Origin.

"Let me try."

Merlin first summoned Azulon and Caesar. They were both Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings. As relatively powerful Controllers, perhaps they could make an impact.

"Swoosh swoosh."

Thus, two figures rapidly appeared in the Origin. They looked around at the strange bubbles, both wearing a lost expression.

"Controller Merlin, what's this place?"

"This is the Origin in the Void Sea. According to legend, it's a mystical place that possesses the Power of Rebirth. Now, sense your surroundings carefully. Do you feel a calling? If you do, then you can head into the bubble that's calling you. Maybe this is your chance."

After Merlin finished speaking, he looked toward Caesar and Azulon. Both of them were Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings. Naturally, they understood what Merlin meant. Maybe they did not know what these bubbles were but they were not stupid. They knew what this so-called chance meant.

This was because this time, they had entered along with the top five Absolute Beings. This was a chance for the top five Absolute Beings as well.

Thinking about how they shared the same opportunity with the top five Absolute Beings, Caesar and Azulon were endlessly excited. They immediately closed their eyes and carefully perceived their surroundings.

Soon, they burst out into gleeful, surprised expressions, saying in an emotional voice, "I've felt it. What a powerful calling like a dearest relative…"

Merlin looked pensive as he nodded. "In that case, look for that bubble. It may be a chance or there may be danger. You must consider this carefully."

Although Merlin warned that there might be danger, both of them still did not hesitate. Who would relinquish the same chance that the top five Absolute Beings had gained?

Therefore, Merlin released all of the four thousand or more people from his Illusory World. Almost everyone including the Free Beings who did not control their own world, felt a calling. This indicated that these bubbles did not merely target Controllers but viewed everyone equally.

More than four thousand people all located the bubbles that called to them. Nonetheless, within this entire colossal light source, this was merely a drop in the ocean. There were still countless bubbles.

Merlin continued forward. He had lost over four thousand people so his abilities were just equivalent to a relatively stronger Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. In this mysterious place, he had to be cautious.

Nevertheless, despite losing four thousand people, that intense calling Merlin had felt previously still did not vanish. Conversely, as Merlin got closer, it grew even stronger.

The bubbles disappeared one by one. At last, by following this calling, Merlin came to an empty void. Here, there were no bubbles but streaks of colorful light appeared, extending through the void horizontally and filling the space.

In this vacuum, there stood a mass of multicolored light. This ball of light was larger than all the bubbles. Moreover, it was pulsing like a heart and produced fine wisps of multicolored light. These wisps gradually swelled up in the end and turned into bubbles.

"These bubbles are produced in this manner?"

Merlin's eyes trembled slightly. He did not expect that this multicolored light was the source of the bubbles. As the source, it must be equipped with formidable power.

Plus, that intense calling in Merlin's heart had grown to the maximum as he stood before this mass of multicolored light. The thing that had sent out this calling was this multicolored light!

Chapter 1061: Balance!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Merlin did not know what this huge multicolored ball of light contained. However, every Controller and even some Free Beings were being called by some of the bubbles.

Most probably, these bubbles contained some sort of mysterious powers that resonated with each Controller or Free Being. Meanwhile, this multicolored light appeared to the source of all the bubbles, so naturally, the powers contained within were the most impressive.

Merlin took a deep breath. No matter what laid inside, he would have to take a look. This calling was simply too strong to resist.

"Swish."

Merlin took one step forward and found himself immersed in a very sticky fluid. All his power was bound in an instant. It was like becoming a Normie once again.

This feeling of being restrained made Merlin slightly uncomfortable. However, when he operated the Illusory World, he realized that it had not disappeared. His powers were intact but due to the stronger suppressing force of the multicolored rays, Merlin's powers were simply suppressed.

Before this amazing surge of power, any other power appeared completely weak and powerless. Previously, Merlin's Illusory World had been as porous as swiss cheese. Although his natural order remained very solid, the interior had been a chaotic mess. Countless planets turned into black holes and there were holes all around.

However, following the emergence of this suppressive force, the interior of the Illusory World appeared to recover at a speed visible even to the naked eye. Planets began to appear in the hole-riddled sky. It became teeming with life. Such life-giving powers made Merlin shiver as if he had just witnessed an inconceivable scene.

"The Power of Rebirth, this is the Power of Rebirth!"

Merlin's Illusory World had stopped expanding. The Power of Rebirth was also incredibly huge and was the direct and equal opposite polar of the Power of Destruction.

This was the greatest opportunity in the Origin. Did Tyron and the others not enter the Origin to seek for the Power of Rebirth? Now, their wish was fulfilled. In addition, this Power of Rebirth seemed to be vaguely strengthening the natural order of the world.

The worlds' natural order required Controllers to spend countless time and effort to search for the flaws in their world and gradually rectify them. Every rectification of the natural order had a massive impact on the entire world.

Now, the Power of Rebirth was helping the Controllers rectify their world's natural order. Even a slight rectification would result in a qualitative improvement.

For example, a Major Cosmos Absolute Being like Tyron who was the top-most existence, had already reached the limit of his body and his world. This meant that his world could not expand anymore.

However, once this surge of the Power of Rebirth helped rectify the natural order of his world, the limit of his world would be stretched and ultimately achieve a qualitative transformation. Similar to how the Void Beasts transformed into Void Beast Masters with the help of the Power of Destruction, with the help of the Power of Rebirth, Tyron could also achieve a level comparable to the Void Beast Masters.

Merlin was the most special one. His Illusory World was pronounced by Tyron to be the world with unbelievable potential due to the solidness of his natural order.

Of course, this was still far from perfect. Now, the only thing that could boost the strength of Merlin's Illusory World was the Power of Rebirth.

However, when the Power of Rebirth was trying to rectify Merlin's Illusory World, the Power of Destruction hidden in the Illusory World exploded.

"Boom."

The entire world shuddered. This Power of Destruction had detonated an unprecedented wave of power. This was the Power of Destruction accumulated from when the Illusory World was continuously ripped apart and destroyed.

Almost all the Power of Destruction lashed out toward the Power of Rebirth. The two types of powers were complete opposites, so when they met head-to-head, there was no room for conciliation. Either the Power of Rebirth vanquished the Power of Destruction or the Power of Destruction obliterated the Power of Rebirth.

Merlin was not too familiar with the Origin or the Powers of Rebirth and Destruction. Naturally, he did not expect such a reaction to occur. He thought that if he drew the Power of Destruction into the Illusory World, it could help strengthen the Illusory World. Nevertheless, that resulted in a showdown between the Power of Rebirth and the Power of Destruction.

At this moment, Merlin's Illusory World was no longer peaceful. Instead, it was a battlefield. On one side was the endless Power of Destruction. Even Merlin had not realized that the Power of Destruction which he thought he could control had grown to such a terrifying extent.

Wherever there were destruction and devastation, the Power of Destruction would be born.

Therefore, while Merlin was not paying attention, the Power of Destruction in the Illusory World had strengthened several folds. Now that it was drawn out of hiding by the Power of Rebirth, Merlin finally noticed how formidable it was.

At the same time, the Power of Rebirth was equally formidable. Since Merlin was situated in the multicolored light, the Power of Rebirth contained here was simply overflowing. With a constant source of Power of Rebirth as a backup, it could easily fight against the Power of Destruction.

However, the confrontation between these two overwhelming powers was causing Merlin's Illusory World to sway dangerously, ready to collapse in an instant. This was not any ordinary destruction but a total collapse. These powers could potentially shatter Merlin's world natural order.

Regardless of the Power of Rebirth or the Power of Destruction, both of them were more potent than Merlin's world's natural order.

"No, if this continues, the Illusory World will be destroyed!"

Merlin finally understood the severity of the situation. The Illusory World was his foundation, so it must not collapse. However, Merlin was unable to control the Power of Rebirth or the Power of Destruction.

"Balance. Why is the Origin able to exist without collapsing? It's because these two powers are balanced!"

Merlin soon found the answer. The continuous impacts of these two powers could not be resolved. Instead, he had to balance them. However, balancing two incredible surges of power was not an easy task.

"The natural order, use the power of the natural order to separate these two surges of power!"

At this time, Merlin could not afford to hesitate. The situation was extremely critical. If the impacts of these two powers intensified, the Illusory World would collapse at any time.

Therefore, Merlin did not waver and immediately mobilized the Illusory World's power of the natural order. In the Illusory World, the power of the natural order had solidified and wrapped around the Power of Rebirth and the Power of Destruction.

"Hum."

Merlin sensed an unparalleled backlash. It seemed that he would not be able to hold on. Even his natural order was about to break.

"I must hold on!"

Merlin's will was incredibly steadfast. The power of the natural order began to crack but did not shatter. At last, the power of the natural order held on.

"Balance!"

Merlin sensed the violent outbursts in the Illusory World gradually subsided and finally relaxed. This was because the Power of Rebirth and the Power of Destruction contained in the Illusory World had finally been separated by the natural order.

The two types of power in the Illusory World had temporarily been balanced!

Chapter 1062: Life and Death Battle!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In Merlin's body right now, the three powers finally reached equilibrium. The Powers of Destruction and Rebirth coupled with Merlin's Illusory World were incredibly stable.

Therefore, Merlin's Illusory World was growing stronger every second. In the future, once he had consolidated the Power of Destruction's natural order and the Power of Rebirth's natural order, Merlin's Illusory World would truly achieve perfection.

Perfection! At last, Merlin knew what the Illusory World lacked. He also finally saw the threshold. The threshold was to merge the Powers of Destruction and Rebirth with his natural order entirely. Then, his Illusory World would no longer be flawed.

"Haha. My world is expanding again. I'm now a Major Cosmos Absolute Being!"

"The Power of Rebirth is truly miraculous. I've also become a Major Cosmos Absolute Being and my world's potential hasn't reached the limit. There seems to be room for improvement."

"My world's natural order is beautifully rectified…"

At this moment, many of the Controllers in the bubbles had broken free. It was not that they broke free of any constraints as there was not any at the first place. Instead, they received the Power of Rebirth. Their respective worlds had undergone a qualitative transformation.

As a result, many Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings had evolved into Major Cosmos Absolute Beings thanks to the Power of Rebirth. As for the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings, only the five top most existences had not reappeared. It seemed that they were still evolving.

Everyone set their gaze on the five bubbles. The Five Regions Absolute Beings were the hope of all the Controllers. Only through their evolution would they stand a chance against the Void Beast Master and also the legendary Void Beast King.

"Boom."

Finally, the five bubbles cracked open. The Five Regions Absolute Beings evolved at the same time. When the auras on their bodies emerged, everyone who was present felt suppressed. Even their worlds could not operate smoothly.

"This…"

"What a powerful authority!"

The Five Regions Absolute Beings were overjoyed. The worlds in their bodies had evolved to inconceivable heights. This was a qualitative transformation.

"Haha, indeed the Origin, indeed the Power of Rebirth. Our world is still riddled with imperfections. We now see those flaws but sadly, we didn't do a good job when we consolidated the world's natural order. So, our achievement is limited…"

The East Region Absolute Being said regrettably.

Distinct from the rest of the Controllers, the Five Regions Absolute Beings did not merely grow more powerful. Most importantly, they saw the reality of their worlds and understood its flaws which prevented it from being perfect.

However, finding out the truth was inconsequential. The moment they consolidated the world's natural order, their fates had been determined. They would not be able to rectify their worlds to reach perfection.

Nevertheless, with the help of the Power of Rebirth, their current abilities were no longer inferior to any of the Void Beast Masters. They had received the ultimate power!

"Quick, while the Void Beasts are yet to give birth to a King Beast, we must initiate an attack and kill all the Void Beasts. We might stand a chance."

The North Region Absolute Being said in a deep voice.

The one with the strongest and most authoritative aura, the Central Region Absolute Being, Tyron, nodded his head. Looking at the countless powerful Controllers, he knew that this was the only way. As long as the Void Beasts had not given birth to a king, they had some hope. If a king was born, even the Five Regions Absolute Beings could not compete against it.

"Let's go!"

Tyron no longer hesitated. He led all the Controllers away from the bubbles and flew swiftly toward the Power of Destruction.

Along the way, they encountered many Void Beasts. Currently, the ordinary Void Beasts were unable to withstand a single hit from the Five Regions Absolute Beings. As soon as their worlds shroud around the Void Beasts, the Void Beasts were easily crushed.

Currently, all the Controllers and Free Beings led by Tyron were almost invincible. None of the Void Beasts could stand in their way.

Such a feat was practically unheard of. Before they received the Power of Rebirth, faced against an ordinary Void Beast, even the Five Regions Absolute Beings could only chase it away but could not kill it.

Now, as long as the Five Regions Absolute Beings called upon their worlds, they were able to crush the Void Beasts easily. This was a complete annihilation!

In the crowd, Merlin did not reveal anything. However, he could sense that his body was growing more powerful each second. His world had expanded to an unimaginable threshold.

Moreover, with every Void Beast killed, a small wisp of the Power of Destruction was released from its body. Although these were only small wisps of the Root of Destruction, they were still considerably frightening.

Unfortunately, these wisps of the Root of Destruction were completely snuffed out by the Five Regions Absolute Beings, so Merlin did not have the chance to absorb them. The reason Merlin stayed with the crowd was that even he did not know the extent of his abilities.

Previously, Merlin was only comparable to a Medium Cosmos Absolute Being. It was only because he was able to accommodate over four thousand Controllers and Free Beings that allowed him to become on par with a Major Cosmos Absolute Being. At the moment, Merlin could vaguely sense that his abilities had strengthened several folds or several dozen folds. Simultaneously, the Powers of Destruction and Rebirth seemed to possess an unfathomable edge.

Both types of power were also growing stronger with each passing moment. Now that they were approaching the Root of Destruction, the Power of Destruction in Merlin's body was becoming more powerful.

Finally, after flying for a very long time, they saw many Void Beasts gathered in front of them. These Void Beasts were surprisingly stationary. There were very few ordinary Void Beasts. Instead, there were many vicious Void Beast Masters.

The number of Void Beast Masters was about a dozen. Each of them was surrounded by many ordinary Void Beasts. They appeared to have each taken up a territory, confronting one another and were eyeing the Destructive Cloud in the air with similarly greedy looks.

That cloud was not just a cloud. The fluctuation emanated by the cloud was sufficient to send chills down the Five Regions Absolute Beings' backs.

"The Root of Destruction?"

Tyron's heart sank. The Void Beasts had discovered the Root of Destruction. It was only because these ten or so Void Beasts were competing against each other that none of them had dared to devour the Root of Destruction.

However, once they launched a massacre and one of the Void Beast Masters devoured the Root of Destruction, it would grow rapidly beyond an ordinary Void Beast Master and become the feared Void Beast King!

"There's a total of eighteen Void Beast Masters. Everyone, they greatly outnumber us but this is our only hope of survival – stop these Void Beast Masters!"

Tyron took a deep breath. He regarded the Void Beasts with a cruel gaze. This was their final battle. They must not allow a Void Beast King to be born. Otherwise, everyone would perish and the entire world would be destroyed.

"Kill!"

The Five Regions Absolute Beings' worlds descended in an instant. A litany of various powers of the natural order was intermingled. Then, like a huge net, it wrapped around all the Void Beasts.

The battle of life and death had begun. No one could stand aside. Even Merlin would have to fight to the end!

Chapter 1063: A Perfect World (Finale)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Boom boom boom."

The Five Regions Absolute Beings' world powers were wildly deployed and covered the entire sky. In the Source Realm, there were only two types of power. One was Destruction and the other was Rebirth.

The Void Beasts represented the Power of Destruction whereas the Controllers represented the Power of Rebirth. Therefore, the collision of these inherently different powers naturally resulted in a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering fluctuation.

The slightly weaker Void Beasts were instantly crushed by the Five Regions Absolute Beings' world powers. Only the Void Beasts Masters were capable of resistance!

However, the number of Void Beasts were simply too many, especially the Master-level Void Beasts which were more than twice as many, considering top existences such as the Five Regions Absolute Beings. There were more than a dozen Master-level Void Beasts.

Immediately, chaos erupted throughout the sky. While the Five Regions Absolute Beings were formidable, faced against the immense number of Void Beasts, they were somewhat helpless. Especially when the Master-level Void Beasts, too, began to retaliate.

These Master-level Void Beasts were almost like personifications of the Power of Destruction. There seemed to be countless tiny seeds that contained the Origin of Destruction in their bodies.

Through these tiny seeds, the Master-level Void Beasts were able to wield unfathomable terror. They were able to cause the Power of Destruction to become tangible. Rays of the Power of Destruction rained down. Even the Five Regions Absolute Beings could barely withstand.

Therefore, when the Master-level Void Beasts began to attack, the battle odds changed drastically. Even the Five Regions Absolute Beings found it difficult to hold on. As for the other ordinary Controllers and Free Beings, they were unable to withstand the attacks of the Power of Destruction.

Merlin stayed with the crowd. The Powers of Destruction and Rebirth in his body were growing rapidly. Particularly, the Power of Destruction was growing the fastest. If things were like before, the Power of Destruction would have swallowed its host and completely destroyed Merlin's Illusory World. However, the Power of Destruction had almost merged entirely with Merlin's natural order. Therefore, following the growth of the Power of Destruction, Merlin's power of the natural order and Power of Rebirth were also growing in tandem.

"Roar…"

Suddenly, an ordinary Void Beast rammed toward Merlin's direction. Many of the Controllers wielded their strongest abilities, mobilizing their world powers to fight against this ordinary Void Beast.

They could resist one Void Beast somehow but if there were two, three, ten or twenty… Perhaps even more Void Beasts, how could they possibly hold on?

Therefore, after the continuous impacts of multiple enormous Void Beasts, many Controllers and Free Beings could not hold on and were strewn haphazardly. Even the Controllers' worlds were pulverized by the impact.

These worlds were the essence of each Controller. So, any harm which befell the world was potentially deadly for the Controllers. Hence, one after another, the ordinarily difficult-to-kill Controllers perished together with their worlds.

It was Merlin's first experience witnessing such carnage. All of them used to be an eternal existence that could not be conquered but now, they were falling piece by piece. Remember, every Controller or Free Being had been the top most existence of their worlds. Such an existence, in their respective worlds, was equivalent to a deity.

Currently, these supreme existences were being killed mercilessly by the Void Beasts. Even with the enhancement from the Power of Rebirth, they could not measure up to such a large swarm of Void Beasts.

The situation in the battlefield turned precarious. For the Controllers, it was getting dangerous. Out of more than a dozen Void Beasts, almost half of them surrounded the Five Regions Absolute Beings.

Now, the Five Regions Absolute Beings were still somewhat equally matched with these Void Beasts but after a moment, once all the Master-level Void Beasts began attacking, it would spell trouble.

Nevertheless, Merlin could no longer afford to concern himself because now, he was also in danger. A Void Beast was rushing directly toward him.

Previously, Merlin had over four thousand Controllers in his Illusory World which enabled him to fight against an ordinary Void Beast. Now that Merlin no longer had the four thousand people, despite the gradual fusion of the Powers of Destruction and Rebirth with the Illusory World, he did not know the true extent of his abilities.

"Fuh…"

Merlin took a deep breath. There was no retreat for him. To be more precise, there was no retreat for all the Free Beings and Controllers. Thus, for the first time, he wielded the Illusory World alone against the Void Beast.

"Boom."

The moment the Illusory World descended, an overwhelming world power burst forth, filled with terrifying powers of suppression. The Void Beast's eyes looked slightly excited as it slammed its way into the Illusory World.

"Crack."

However, the moment that the Void Beast entered Merlin's Illusory World, its humongous body was immediately pulverized by the terrifying world power.

A strange power was released, which was immediately gobbled up by the Power of Destruction. The Illusory World pulsed stronger.

"My Illusory World…"

Even Merlin himself was speechless. Since when did his Illusory World become so powerful? From his previous experience, even the top-most Controller was only able to fight against a Void Beast but not kill it.

Now, only the Five Regions Absolute Beings, after being baptized by the Power of Rebirth, could easily kill an ordinary Void Beast. It seemed like Merlin was now able to accomplish the same feat as the Five Regions Absolute Beings.

"Is it because of the Powers of Destruction and Rebirth?"

Merlin observed carefully. His Powers of Destruction and Rebirth had been shaped into two seeds around the Illusory World's natural order. These were Power Seeds, the respective essences of the Power of Destruction and the Power of Rebirth.

It was the consolidation of the Destruction Seed which allowed the Void Beasts to become Master-level Void Beasts. At the same time, it was the consolidation of the Rebirth Seed that allowed the Five Regions Absolute Beings to kill ordinary Void Beasts and fight against the Master-level Void Beasts.

Now, it appeared that Merlin had consolidated both seeds. The Destruction Seed and the Rebirth Seed – which were two complete polar opposites.

"Again!"

Merlin grew excited. He immediately stretched out the Illusory World and shrouded five ordinary Void Beasts. These Void Beasts sensed the immense pressure and despite unleashing their full strengths, were completely suppressed by Merlin.

Five strange powers were absorbed by the Destruction Seed. Merlin finally understood. The Void Beasts represented Destruction so their bodies contained the Power of Destruction. All they lacked was the method to consolidate the Destruction Seed.

Thus, it was only with the help of the Origin's Power of Destruction that they could swiftly consolidate the Destruction Seed and become Master-level Void Beasts.

"These Void Beasts will help my Destruction Seed to grow which in turn, will also boost the growth of my natural order and the Rebirth Seed!"

Merlin discovered that the Destruction Seed, Illusory World's natural order, and the Rebirth Seed had formed a symbiotic relationship. When the Destruction Seed absorbed the Power of Destruction from the Void Beasts, all three powers grew in unison.

"Haha, if I can kill all the Void Beasts as well as absorb all the world power contained in the Destruction Cloud, how much more powerful will I become?"

A bold idea began to form in Merlin's mind. Devour, endless devouring. His natural order was strong coupled with the Power of Rebirth's restraint, all three powers had achieved a perfect balance. Hence, he could devour as much as he liked.

"Rumble rumble."

Thinking along those lines, Merlin's Illusory World expanded freely and crushed multiple Void Beasts. Finally, Merlin's power also attracted the attention of the Master-level Void Beasts.

A Master-level Void Beast rammed against Merlin mercilessly. That terrifying power caused Merlin to feel suffocated.

"Bang."

This time, Merlin could not kill this Void Beast. A Master-level Void Beast exceeded Merlin's expectations. It seemed like his two Seeds were not good enough to give him an edge.

"We can't stop them…"

Tyron and the other Five Regions Absolute Beings finally could not hold on anymore. This was because the strongest Void Beast had finally attacked. This was an entirely jet-black Void Beast, its body was three to four times bigger than average. It was the largest and strongest out of the Master-level Void Beasts.

As soon as it attacked, the Five Regions Absolute Being was defeated. Even the Rebirth Seed was eroded by the Power of Destruction. The East Region Absolute Being was in great jeopardy.

"Suppress!"

Merlin growled. Even mobilizing the fullest extent of the Illusory World, he could only barely suppress this Void Beast. When he saw that Tyron and the others were retreating, he hurriedly called out, "Teacher, help me trap this Void Beast."

Merlin's earlier accomplishment had not escaped Tyron and the others' observations. They did not know why Merlin would become so powerful but now, he was their only hope.

"Alright, let's help Merlin suppress that Master-level Void Beast."

Under the combined powers of Tyron and the other four, this Master-level Void Beast was gradually suppressed. Following that, Merlin started to attack this Master-level Void Beast and as it weakened, he was able to absorb its Destruction Seed.

"Bang."

Suddenly, the strongest Void Beast turned around and launched itself against the other Master-level Void Beast. It even bit through the neck of another Master-level Void Beast.

At the same time, a huge burst of Destruction Seed flew into the strongest Void Beast's mouth. Subsequently, the aura on this Void Beast became more daunting.

"Not good, that Void Beast is trying to devour the other Master-level Void Beasts' Destruction Seed to become a Void Beast King!"

If a Void Beast King truly emerged, it would undoubtedly be a catastrophe for all the Controllers because no one could stand against the Void Beast King.

Nonetheless, they were now powerless to stop it. After devouring a few Destruction Seeds, the Void Beast was already infinitely close to becoming king.

"Woo woo woo…"

At last, the Void Beast that was being confined by Merlin was killed. Its Destructive Seed was devoured by Merlin. Immediately, he felt his world expanding at an astounding rate. In addition, his natural order and the Power of Rebirth were greatly enhanced.

Merlin had a gut feeling that if his Destruction Seed and Rebirth Seed could become the Root of Destruction and the Root of Rebirth, he would truly be free.

"Merlin, you should leave now. You're our only hope. The Void Beast King will soon appear…"

Tyron's words were filled with despair. Once the Void Beast King emerged, the Controllers no longer stood a chance.

"A king? Well, I can be a king too…"

By now, Merlin already understood. To become a Void Beast King, the Void Beast must level-up the Destruction Seed into a Root of Destruction. In that case, Merlin could also become a king using the same method. He, too, could devour Destruction Seeds.

Furthermore, he was also able to devour Rebirth Seeds. If he could level-up into the Root of Destruction or Root of Rebirth, then he would be more formidable than a king.

After listening to Merlin's simple explanation, Tyron and the others perked up a little. In particular, Tyron gushed, "Merlin, the first time I saw you, I sensed that your potential was endless. Now, it looks like it's true… Our Rebirth Seeds are no longer useful now. They cannot defeat that Void Beast, much less the Void Beast King. So, we'll give them to you. Haha, if you fail, we'll all die anyway. What's the use of keeping this Rebirth Seed?"

Merlin was shocked and about to decline but Tyron and the others had made up their minds. All of them presented their Rebirth Seeds to Merlin.

Five new Rebirth Seeds flew directly into Merlin's body. His Rebirth Seed devoured them without delay. Thus, Merlin's natural order, Destruction Seed, and Rebirth Seed all grew stronger.

"Yes, if I fail, all the Controllers will die!"

Merlin took a deep breath. This was the most powerful force he had ever wielded. He was confident to engage the strongest Void Beast in battle.

"Kill!"

Merlin's Illusory World was now ten or maybe a hundred times stronger than before. The all-encompassing world power descended upon them and shrouded the Void Beast. His world power began to suppress it.

Nevertheless, the Void Beast struggled with all its might. Immediately, a violent surge of the Power of Destruction went on a rampage in Merlin's Illusory World. After all, that Void Beast had already devoured nearly a dozen Master-level Void Beasts. It was already at the critical point to become king. It was simply a matter of time.

"Boom boom boom."

A massive collision ensued between two pure Powers of Destruction. Although Merlin had devoured a Master-level Void Beast as well as five Rebirth Seeds, he was still far below the Void Beast. It was just one hairbreadth away from consolidating a Root of Destruction and becoming king.

Therefore, Merlin's Illusory World shattered in an instant. It was almost at the verge of collapse and the Illusory World's destructive aura was gradually melding into the Void Beast's body.

"Boom."

Finally, the Void Beast broke through its final obstacle. Its entire body ballooned wildly, about one hundred times the size of a Master-level Void Beast. The entire sky was blocked by its huge body.

Everyone could sense that this Void Beast's aura was extremely horrifying as though no power could stand against it. The reason was that this was a king – a Void Beast King!

"Roar…"

Following the Void Beast King's roar, all the Void Beasts wandering around the Origin came scrambling. It was because the Void Beast King could summon all Void Beasts.

"Destroy!"

At this moment, the Void Beast King spoke the human language. The Root of Destruction in its body unleashed a most enormous force that slammed viciously against Merlin's Illusory World.

Immediately, the incredibly vast Illusory World with its incomparably solid natural order as well as the Rebirth Seed and Destruction Seed were shattered. At this time, no conscious will could withstand such a powerful force.

The Illusory World cracked like an eggshell. Merlin's consciousness turned fuzzy as though he as sinking into endless depths.

"Oh no, even Merlin is dead. The Void Beast gave birth to a king. Everything will be destroyed…"

Tyron and the other top Absolute Beings stared forlornly at Merlin's Illusory World, which was crumbling at a terrifying speed with its dissipating power.

This moment, to all the Controllers, was the end!

However, just as Merlin's consciousness was about to fade away, his Destruction Seed, Rebirth Seed, and the natural order changed. Due to the Void Beast King's unstoppable strength, they were crushed but precisely because they were crushed that they could now merge completely.

Hence, Destruction and Rebirth merged seamlessly into the natural order. Merlin's Illusory World natural order originated from the basic principles of the universe but it was not perfect. What it lacked were Destruction and Rebirth.

Now, both these powers had been merged.

"So, what if the world is broken? The natural order is my foundation. Moreover, with Destruction, comes Rebirth…"

Suddenly, everyone was stunned. Amid the endless darkness, Merlin's voice resounded. At the same time, the initially shattered Illusory World seemed to gain a new breath of life and began to rebuild itself.

The Illusory World appeared once more. However, this time, the Illusory World was infinitely vast and its barriers seemed almost perfect. Any power could be transmuted by it.

"Boom."

The Void Beast's attack did not cease its frenzied attacks. Nonetheless, when its Power of Destruction entered the Illusory World, it merely stirred up some ripples in the night sky and then disappeared without a trace.

Just like that, no matter how strong a power, how could it possibly destroy the universe?

Infinity, this was Merlin's Illusory World now. Even Merlin, as its master, did now know the vastness of his Illusory World.

"Void Beast King? Come in. You can become the ancestor of the Alien Beasts, which represents destruction…"

Merlin already understood that destruction and rebirth were not opposites but complementary. A world must have a destructive force as well as rebirth.

The Void Beast King could only roar in despair. Then, it was thrown into the depths of the Illusory World. Its Power of Destruction might be able to destroy countless planets in the blink of an eye but it would not be able to affect the entire world. It could only cause a small ripple in an infinite universe.

This was because it was an infinite world.

Looking at Merlin who was reborn, a hint of awe appeared on Tyron's face. He murmured, "The most powerful world doesn't have a limit. A perfect world is an infinite world!"

It was at this moment that everyone understood the meaning of a perfect world which had been pursued by all Controllers. A truly perfect world was infinite…
