Cultivating in the Wizard World-Chapter 261 - 232: Home Delivery

They stared at each other for a moment, and finally, it was David who broke the suffocating silence.

His voice carried a trace of indescribable fatigue and confusion:

"Why? Sage... why are you doing this?"

The one called the "Sage" slowly lifted his head.

His face was unexpectedly calm, even with a trace of worldly detachment.

He looked at David calmly: "Actually, from the beginning, I never conceded."

"It’s just that I’m well aware that with the rational behavioral patterns of you wizards, the commoners of Elorcia do indeed live better after being occupied by you. Moreover, I admit that I’m powerless to stop your invasion."

"But..." His voice suddenly became low and determined, "My dignity does not allow me to concede just like that! So, when I confirmed that all the remnants in the Elorcia Plane have been completely transformed into people of the Wizard World by you... I finally, can begin my revenge!"

"However, I am also very clear that with my current power, I am not qualified to inflict any substantive harm on you wizards." The Sage’s eyes flashed with self-deprecation. "Therefore, I need... to rely on ’external power’!"

As soon as the words fell, a heart-pounding blood-red glow slowly lit up on the ground beneath the Sage’s feet!

Countless complex and evil runes spread like living creatures from under his feet.

These lights continued to spread around, at an ever-increasing speed, eventually forming an unimaginably large bloody array covering the entire island!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The Sage’s expression finally looked somewhat manic at this moment!

He spread his arms, as if embracing his own victory, and shouted at David and Jeming arrogantly: "Because of your delay outside just now, I’ve completed the final ritual!"

"Now! The ritual has begun! You... can’t stop it anymore!!"

"You! Why are you doing this?! You actually...!" David’s face showed extreme shock and disbelief, pointing at the Sage, he shouted loudly, as if unable to accept the cruel reality in front of him.

Meanwhile, Jeming, watching David’s reaction, couldn’t help but blink.

Then, his face also showed a mix of anger and fear, as if he was completely dumbfounded by this sudden change.

Both of them "frantically" rushed forward, seemingly trying to stop the Sage.

But they were violently blocked outside by a transparent energy barrier rising from the edge of the array.

"It’s useless! Give up!"

And the Sage in the center of the array completely ignored the clumsy performance of the two "defeated generals" outside.

He closed his eyes and began chanting an ancient and evil spell.

He used all the life energy that he had collected through those Pseudo-Wizards over the past two years as offerings, with no reservations, to the gigantic array beneath his feet!

His purpose was only one—to open a "Gate of Destruction" leading to the lair of some forbidden existence!

As he watched the terrifying scene above the island, where the space began to twist and fold like boiling water as the vast amount of life energy continued to converge.

David’s face was full of lament and grief, pounding on the barrier, with a tone of despair, he said, "How could you do this... how dare you?! This... this really is..."

The Sage was about to speak up, to mock the other’s naive stupidity, savor the pleasure of revenge.

But suddenly found that outside the barrier, David and Jeming’s expressions in an instant, suddenly changed from sadness, anger, and fear, without any warning, to a... cold and grim, taunting smile!

"...This is really great!"

David, with a terrifying smile, uttered these words.

Listening to those last three words, the Sage’s mind instantly stalled.

And just at this moment, above them, the space was finally completely torn apart by the colossal energy.

A pitch-black, abyss-like space passage was forcibly opened!

At the moment when he saw the bizarre smiles on the faces of the two, a sense of an extremely bad premonition suddenly surged in the Sage’s heart.

But now the arrow was on the string, and he had to release it.

The ceremony had reached its final step, leaving him no room to ponder where exactly things went wrong!

From the other side of that pitch-black space vortex came a vast voice filled with supreme majesty and brutality.

Accompanied by this voice was an overwhelming spiritual wave filled with the power of destruction and finality.

This spiritual wave, just a tiny bit of it escaping, made the whole island tremble violently!

In this spiritual wave, a clear and arrogant message was transmitted into the minds of everyone present:

[Humph... once again someone, foolishly, summons in my name... Mortal beings, really make me... feel annoyed!]

The Sage immediately forcibly suppressed that slight unease in his heart, excitedly replying loudly: "Great Lord of Destruction! Please descend upon this decaying world! Destroy these despicable wizards who have desecrated life!"

Upon hearing the respectful flattery in Sage’s words, the "Destruction Demon God" on the other side of the space vortex continued to exude an aura of supreme arrogance.

That terrifying oppressive feeling even continued to grow, seemingly preparing to descend here in the most shocking way.

However, when he heard the last two words "wizard," which were all too familiar to him, his vast-as-the-ocean spiritual wave suddenly... paused.

As if an engine running at high speed was suddenly jammed.

After a moment of silence.

The "Destruction Demon God’s" spiritual wave, in extreme shock, pulsed fiercely twice!

As if unable to believe what he had just "heard"!

Then, a voice of terror and rage, ten times more dreadful than the previous majesty, suddenly erupted from the other side of the vortex: "Wizards?! Are you trying to get me killed?!!!"

What happened afterwards left the Sage dumbfounded.

The "Destruction Demon God," who was previously so arrogant, unbelievably swiftly retracted all his spiritual waves at a speed countless times faster than his arrival!

Along with it, the space vortex above, which was opened with great difficulty, began to rapidly shrink and collapse unstably!

The other side didn’t even have time to throw any harsh words, as if terrified of getting entangled with something terrible in the next moment.

Their hasty retreat left the Sage slightly dazed.

However, just as the black space vortex was about to quickly shrink and completely close.

A pair of hands.

A pair of seemingly ordinary yet seemingly containing the weight of the entire plane human hands, appeared abruptly on either side of the space vortex out of thin air!

Clearly physical hands and the ethereal gate of space, yet at this moment, they made a substantive contact like the collision of steel!

And, just with this pair of hands, pushing outward firmly...

Buzz—!

Accompanied by the great buzzing of nearly collapsing space, those hands just used such a simple action to forcibly stabilize the space vortex that was about to collapse and close!

In the gaze of the Sage that went from shock to confusion to utter despair, and the eyes of David and Jeming that were filled with taunting insinuations of "caring for the intellectually challenged."

A figure dressed in a simple black wizard robe appeared abruptly beside that black vortex.

With just his pair of hands, he forcibly held open that illusory space passage leading to the Otherworld!

Judging from the shining emblem on the other’s wizard robe adorned with seven brilliant stars...

This person, was actually a... Seventh Level Wizard!
