Chapter 1027: The Death of the World

How immense was a Latitude Cosmos’ will? How terrifying would it be? Nonetheless, it had a flaw. Merlin had seized the chance, stopping at nothing to slowly devour and merge.

“Rumble.”

The entire sky was filled with thunder and lightning. Space itself was shuddering and the wind howled as if it was crying.

This was the mournful wail of the world’s will. The portion of the world’s will in Ancestor Damon’s body had been a missing piece. A small leak would sink a great ship. Even though it was just a portion of the world’s will, it was ultimately incomplete. Thus, Merlin had found his chance and started to frantically devour.

A chance like this came once in a blue moon. Perhaps there were no other Latitude Cosmos that was like the Almighty Beast World, which had split its own will into a few parts. This was the chance Merlin had seized.

As time passed by, Merlin did not give up on devouring. Conversely, his pace of consumption increased. In a short while, the Illusory World was eighty percent recovered!

Moreover, it was continuing its recovery while the Almighty Beast World’s will kept deteriorating without stopping. Struggling out of Merlin’s devouring was no longer possible.

“Haha, just like that. Devour some more. It’s not too much to hope that the Illusory World can be fully restored. Progress one step further!”

Titus’ excited voice rang out. The Illusory World was ceaselessly recovering and he could sense it the clearest. It was eighty percent restored and was going strong. Based on this speed, reinstating it to its previous glory was not a problem. At that point, it might have only used up a portion of the world’s will.

If Merlin devoured the entire world’s will, the Illusory World could take that final step and evolve thoroughly. This was the objective that Merlin could not accomplish in the previous world.

“What have I done?”

Ancestor Damon stared at the sky, dumbstruck, at Merlin whose force was growing stronger. Conversely, the force from the world’s will was getting weaker.

Maybe he had never dared to imagine that someone could contend against the world’s will. In the present situation, the world’s will was doing its utmost to stop Merlin’s devouring.

One day, two days…

The changes of the Candora Empire naturally attracted the attention of ultimate contenders from neighboring countries. In the entire continent, the Candora Empire was considered to be one of the relatively mighty empires.

Now, the capital city was razed to the ground and the other changes had induced momentous transformations throughout the land.

Still, when these ultimate contenders came, they could only stare with mouths agape at Merlin, who was becoming stronger at an outrageous pace.

“Boom.”

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Merlin’s Illusory World was fully restored. At this point, he no longer had to fear any Latitude Cosmos. Even if he returned to the Void Zone, he could contend against it by using the Illusory World.

Merlin was able to contend against any Latitude Cosmos!

Nevertheless, he could only contend and was far from matching up to Aruba. Back then, Aruba had traveled through countless Latitude Cosmos. If he wished to, he could easily destroy one Latitude Cosmos after another.

Moreover, although these Latitude Cosmos could do nothing against Merlin, these Latitude Cosmos’ will could do the same thing the Void Zone’s will had done – directly “throw” Merlin out.

In the past, Merlin was flung out of the Void Zone and narrowly escaped with his life, arriving to the Almighty Beast World. Therefore, Merlin was not strong enough unless he could materialize the Illusory World as reality.

Of course, the remnant will of the current Almighty Beast World was not able to “throw” Merlin out, so Merlin could relax and devour boldly.

After the recovery of the Illusory World, Merlin’s devouring speed was even faster. He could feel that his Illusory World was becoming stronger at every passing second as if it never had a limit.

“Where are the limits of this Illusory World?”

Merlin’s heart stirred. He might as well unleash the Illusory World, allowing it to expand to the best of its capabilities. At once, the Illusory World started to swell rapidly, swiftly covering the entire Candora Empire. Soon, it spread out in all directions as if blanketing the entire Almighty Beast World.

This was a vast and colossal world. After Merlin had covered it, he felt that this world seemed to have a pulse as if the world itself was a living being.

“A Latitude Cosmos is a living being?”

Merlin’s consciousness descended into a strange state. He did not notice this in the slightest. At this point, the Almighty Beast World’s will was being devoured at a greater speed while his Illusory World was growing exponentially.

One month, two months…

No one could approach the place where Merlin was. Even when the ultimate contenders had exerted all effort, they had no way of getting close. There was only a tiny bit of the Almighty Beast World’s will left, and it started to become incomparably derelict.

“Buzz.”

Suddenly, when the final strand of the Almighty Beast World’s will was completely devoured, the entire Almighty Beast World trembled slightly. Then, nothing special happened. The world did not collapse and there were no terrifying disasters.

It appeared as if the world’s will had never affected this world.

Nevertheless, Merlin knew that the Almighty Beast World was already dead. The world’s will was the core of each Latitude Cosmos as it had a “life”.

Having lost the world’s will was equivalent to being dead. Perhaps one would see no changes for a while but as a century, a millennium or even ten millennia had passed by, this world would slowly wither, crumble, and finally fade away completely. No one could redeem it.

“Life…”

Merlin was still clinging on to the word “life”. He was preoccupied with his Illusory World. To materialize it as reality, he must insert a “will” into the Illusory World, which was like giving it life.

“My will is the Illusory World’s will!”

Merlin’s voice reverberated throughout the Illusory World. His Illusory World had surpassed the Almighty Beast World to a large extent. Even so, he had still been unable to materialize it. It was due to this final, most crucial step, to insert a will into the Illusory World, giving it “life”.

As the creator of the Illusory World, Merlin’s will was the will of the entire Illusory World!

After thinking this through, the entire Illusory World began to churn. The layers of light from the world’s barrier seemed about to “materialize”.

“Merlin, quick, you must leave the Almighty Beast World. The Illusory World has finally reached the stage of being materialized as reality. Haha, this is the last step. Once you succeed, I’ll truly be resurrected!”

Titus’ excitement was matchless. From the Void Zone to the current Almighty Beast World, Merlin had gone through tribulations that ordinary people could not even imagine. Today, his Illusory World had finally reached the final stage.

If they remained in the Almighty Beast World, it would be very dangerous. Once Merlin’s Illusory World was materialized as reality, the energy that would explode in an instant could crush the Almighty Beast World to smithereens. After all, the current Almighty Beast World did not even have a world’s will. It was most fragile.

Although the Almighty Beast World was fated to “die off” in the future not too far away, there was still Lisa and the Holy Dragon Empire, many people whom Merlin was familiar with. Therefore, Merlin would not annihilate the Almighty Beast World.

To prevent destroying the Almighty Beast World, he could only leave!

Merlin drew in a deep breath and cast another glance into the direction of the Holy Dragon Empire, a part of the world he was familiar with. Although he had not stayed for long, he had developed a deep affection for it.

Nonetheless, he must leave in the end.

“Swoosh.”

Merlin exited in one step. The Illusory World was instantly retracted into Merlin’s body. Merlin had broken and casually traveled through the solid space.

The barrier of the Almighty Beast World was easily torn apart by Merlin. As he stared at this gigantic gap, Merlin had no hesitations and stepped out.

“Swoosh.”

The endless deep black space – Merlin had left a Latitude Cosmos once again. The last time, it was the Void Zone that had forcefully “expelled” him.

This time, it was Merlin who tore open the world’s barrier, departing from the Almighty Beast World on his own will. He turned back and could still see the colossal outline of the Almighty Beast World. Even so, the current Almighty Beast World had lost all of its “vitality”, appearing dull and lifeless. After some time, which might be one millennium or ten, it would die and thus vanish completely.

Back then, when Merlin was entering the Almighty Beast World, he had discovered that surrounding it were Latitude Cosmos even more enormous than the Almighty Beast World. These Latitude Cosmos still had not changed even now.

To Merlin, more than a century might be considered a lengthy period. However, to a Latitude Cosmos, a long period like a thousand or ten thousand years was not even worth mentioning. Perhaps it was only the twinkle of an eye.

Most Latitude Cosmos used a hundred million years as a unit. Who knew how long they had been existing? Ordinary people would find it difficult to fathom this great mystery.

As Merlin looked at this pitch-black vacuum, he nodded in satisfaction. Now, no matter how great of a commotion he had caused, no matter how big his Illusory World was, there would be no obstacles.

Right now was the key moment. The Illusory World would be materialized as reality. This was a path that Merlin had concluded. Whether he succeeded could only be known by trying.

“Illusory World!”

Merlin immediately released the Illusory World. The intangible Illusory World hovered majestically in the silent, unfamiliar space. The Illusory World that was fully unleashed, in terms of its scale, was nearly one size larger than the Almighty Beast World. It was about the size of the Void Zone.

“Come on, insert the will! My will is the Illusory World’s will!”

Merlin stood quietly in the Illusory World. The final step was to insert a will. Without any reservations, he inserted all of his own will into the Illusory World.

“Boom.”

In an instant, the entire Illusory World started to quake violently.
