“Restricted access; only passes with special authority or passes signed by the Wizard Alliance can pass through the portal!”
The Heart of the Ocean Bitwall which was originally beautiful and quiet, because of the birth and discovery of the new world, the peace was destroyed. Several portals leading to the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall were blocked by the military; they prohibited free access. A large number of wizards were guarding to prevent any people harboring evil intentions into the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall.
“Most of the portals leading to the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall are sealed!” The drastic changes of the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall were reported on the news, several portals was closed and shut down, but the rationale behind it was unpublished.
“Only military personnel and members of the Wizard Tower can enter the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall!” In front of the portal leading the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall was a long lined up; several military trains and airships were waiting to enter the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall. Each large transmission portal looked like a military base. Those who were watching that scene were as if they had felt the imminent battle, they couldn’t help but recollect of the battle for compete of Thunder Bitwall in the distant years ago.
“The entire Heart of the Ocean Bitwall will be subject to military control, all will have to be managed and deployed by the Wizard Alliance. All professionals will have to travel to your nearest Wizard Associations to report and register; otherwise you’ll be treated as treason.” The broadcast about military control in Heart of the Ocean Bitwall was playing again and again.
On the development of a new world, the Wizard Alliance seemed to have the greatest advantage, because they had a huge frontier – the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall.
A half bitwall which was so near to a new world was a blessing for the Wizard Alliance; it was like a gift from God.
In order to occupy the new world, the Wizard Alliance even transmitted and send the Eternal Floating-Space City over, through the Space Projection Magic, the most powerful Space Magic, the huge Eternal Floating-Space City for the first time left Starsoul World and into the depths of the Astral World.
And the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall which had originally accelerated to the extreme to bolt over to Starsoul World began to slow down; it travelled off the planned trajectory and towards the new world.
The deep blue sea and the blue sky were connected, the water reflected the sky, and everything seemed to be an illusory reflection on the water.
In the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall, one couldn’t tell where the sky was and where the sea was.
In that moment, the huge Eternal Floating-Space City floated in the sky, quietly parked above the clouds. Many people in the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall were seeing the Eternal Floating-Space City for the first time; it was the symbol of the Wizard Alliance.
When one was under the Eternal Floating-Space City, looked up at the giant city in the sky and among the clouds, everyone understood what a great masterpiece it was. They then understood the rationale of the pursuit of the ultimate alchemy in various generations of alchemy warlocks.
As long as the Floating-Space City still existed, as long as the master of the tower, Catherine still existed, no one dared to belittle the Wizard Alliance, and none within the Wizard Alliance would dare to go against the power of the Wizard Alliance. Those who had harbored ill intentions, in the moment when they saw the arrival of the Eternal Floating-Space City, they would be scared stiff and terror-stricken.
Just then, in a large hall within the Floating-Space City, Catherine wasn’t wearing her formal robe of the Wizard Tower, but a loose-fitting long skirt, her hair was naturally draped over her shoulders, she stood barefooted in the middle of the hall.
And there was a projection floating in mid-air in front of her, the projection was a fairy with a silver crown, she was the Queen of the Arcane Kingdom, Wendy.
“As long as you’re willing to open the core of the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall, with the mana of the whole bitwall and the Floating-Space City as a guide, our Arcane Kingdom will be able to project the Fhartasil’s Fairyland through the Level Eight mythical arcane magic of space projection to your side, and we’ll be your most powerful support and power.”
The projection of the fairy Queen Wendy was suspended in the air, a projection of power from the far-flung Astral World of the Fhartasil’s Fairyland, at an unimaginable distance, and her arms and hair seemed to fly without gravity, Wendy fixated at Catherine as she persuaded her.
Catherine shook her head, smiled and jokingly said, “Maybe it’s not a strong aid, but a strong competitor.”
Queen Wendy, the fairy, spoke again, “Catherine, you can’t swallow a new world through the sole efforts of you and your kingdom. You can’t get rid of our support. Do you remember our agreement? I can now pledge that if our Arcane Kingdom occupies the new world, we’ll retreat from Starsoul World, and you’ll have the entire Starsoul World to yourself.”
The decision made by Queen Wendy wasn’t on impulse, a world that was still being born, the world consciousness and rules that weren’t yet perfect, it was like an undeveloped gem, for the existence of a system like the Arcane Kingdom, the new world was akin to something built just for them. Starsoul World which was already perfected, strong and with strict rules, the new world was perhaps more representative of the Arcane Kingdom’s future than Starsoul World.
But Catherine, the master of the tower, hesitated. The discovery of a new world might be something that would be difficult to encounter for the next ten thousands of years. If they lost it, the Wizard Alliance might not be able to encounter a similar opportunity in the future.
And they were completely in the lead, whether it was the Eternal Floating-Space City or the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall, it had inched closer to the new world, that would be the most important force for their battle of the new world.
The eyes of Catherine, the master of the tower, glimmered twice, “Maybe it’s not the time yet!”
Queen Wendy’s projection gradually disappeared in the hall, “Soon, you’ll need our help, but if that happened, you won’t be the dominant party leading the fight.”
Catherine turned away barefooted and slowly walked out of the hall, she command a view of the entire Eternal Floating-Space City and the sky and the sea of the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall.
“Abyss World! Divine Kingdom?”
“I’m going to get ahead of all of you; we’re already in the lead. When all of you finally started to react, everyone will then realize it’s too late.”
The enormous Heart of the Ocean Bitwall was now sailing rapidly in Astral World, not sailing towards the new world, but they slowed down their speed and revolved around the new world, they were circling around and inching closer and closer.
And as the distance got closer, the wizards in the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall, even at night, when they were using ordinary Astral World telescopes, they could observe the vast world beyond the thin walls of the Heart of the Ocean Bitwall and into the new world.
The emergence of several huge Astral World telescopes from numerous Wizard Towers and Elemental Towers were seen all the time; they were exploring the huge world from time to time.
The number of Floating-Space Towers in the sky had also increased, gradually from the initial five towers, to nine towers, then to twelve towers.
Twelve Floating-Space Towers suspended in the sky, they surrounded the Eternal Floating-Space City, it was akin to stars surrounding the sun, twelve Floating-Space Towers represented twelve mythical wizards, but it also represented that nearly half of the mythical wizards from the Wizard Alliance had all arrived. The Heart of the Ocean Bitwall had arrived at the depths of the Astral World and was in preparation for the development of a new world.
Adriana, the master of the Ocean Song Floating-Space Tower, had also been in the Astral World Exploration Laboratory, the laboratory which was usually empty, now had more than ten times the number of its usual members. They collected information about the new world from day and night; observed the changes in the new world.
The great fairy wizard was excited, “I was the first to observe the birth of the new world, and also the first to witness the existence of a chaos worm. I was recorded in history. Even if I’m just a mythical wizard, but I’m also an extremely special one.”
And in the Eternal Floating-Space City, the largest Astral World Exploration Laboratory, led by the mythical alchemy warlock, Cook Bay, was constantly observing the new world and making plans if they had to enter it and compete for the new world.
Through the Astral World telescope, one could see that it was a huge and chaotic world, the huge element storm and space wave had gradually subsided, the gorgeous tail dragged by the new world was progressively absorbed by the new world.
The world gradually stabilized, the internal chaos was still in a mess, there were drastic changes, however it was gradually slowing down, the original disorder within the world, as the time passed, and the evolution of material was moving a little by a little towards balance.
It could be seen that the new world was like a melting pot, it was burning under a fiery fire, magma and all kinds of substances in the world were frenziedly flowing, but it had gradually cooled and formed into earth and veins. The sun condensed within the bitwall. Water, air, lightning, storms were violently produced in the new world.
Cook Bay looked at the beautiful world through the Astral World telescope; it was as exquisite as the world’s most beautiful gemstones, it was an uncarved beauty.
“It certainly has a huge difference in its speed of time, and if we get inside it now, it may be possible to explore its mystery of time.”
Cook Bay said excitedly, just then, he suddenly observed the side of the new world, as if something had changed, he was immediately confused.
Intense spatial fluctuations also caused the Space Fluctuation Tracker inside the Astral World Exploration Laboratory to rotate violently, and several wizards and alchemy warlocks were overwhelmed.
“What’s that?”
“No? Someone opened up the portal!”
“How could it be that, we’re deep in the Astral World, it’s so far away, what coordinates did they use to open the portal?”
“Who knows, but the portal is activated!”
Wizards in various Floating-Space Towers also discovered the abnormality in Astral World; someone in the new world had opened a portal and was about to break through the space and landed near to the new world. With the use of the Astral World telescope, the new world looked as though it was close, but the actual distance was unimaginable.
They could only watch the other party opened up a huge portal, they were closer to the new world, and Cook Bay’s gaze turned stern and serious. Just then, Catherine, the master of the tower, appeared behind him, she looked at the projection of the depth of Astral World on the wall.
They saw a huge portal set off a burst of ripples, a corner of an ink-colored crystal slowly transmitted through the portal. From that tip, it seemed like a huge and unimaginable creature; that was absolutely an enormous creature which could be comparable to the Eternal Floating-Space City.
Numerous wizards were jaw-dropped, “How, how can it be, such a large portal, without any basis, no space coordinates, no stable space channel, how can it opened up just like that?”
Cook Bay seemed to figure out something, “That’s because what he’s going to send isn’t a thing, but it’s an entire life form, it’s a Mythical Life; he’s transmitting himself over.”
A mythical wizard behind him turned to Cook Bay, “How could it be, that thing is bigger than a Floating-Space City!”
From the depths of the Astral World, a little by a little, he got out of the space channel, he slowly revealed his entire body in front of them; that was a huge octagonal crystal, like a black hole and it was parked at the side of the new world.
The huge body made others felt a sense of desperation, and the force he eluded seemed to be assimilating and devouring everything, the black crystals span and caused dimensional folds around it.
Many of the wizards present immediately recognized who was transmitted, and even if they hadn’t actually seen it, they had heard of his name.
Catherine’s expression became extremely serious and cautious, “The Lord of the Abyss Door – Devil Monarch, Talos!”
