"Transform"

"Consolidate"

"Ultimate Maxim!"

Resounding shouts emerged from Merlin's mouth. The vortex atop the Wizard Heart grew bigger and stirred up a massive hurricane in an instant. It almost seemed as though the entire Wizard Heart would be swept away.

Hum...

The spine-tingling aura was still permeating all around the area. It was dark, lonely and devastating. It was as if this was the most indigenous and most essential aura between heaven and earth.

Spell Casters, upon enlightenment of the Essence of Elements, could consolidate Maxims!

Merlin was consolidating a Maxim right now. Nevertheless, the Maxim he was consolidating was an ultimate Maxim. Strands of black mist gradually coalesced into ropes of black chains suspended in the Void Zone. They wrapped around the golden river above his head in the blink of an eye.

Black chains had constricted the golden river. Gold and black intermingled and battled one another.

"Ultimate Maxim. He actually became an Honored Legend!"

Maya witnessed Merlin's transformation with his own eyes. He clearly saw Merlin's Wizard Heart underwent relentless transformations until it formed threads of an ultimate Maxim. Finally, with Darkness-type spells as his foundation, Merlin became an Honored Legend!

"I've finally transformed"

Merlin shut his eyes gently. Behind him, thick ropes of black chains appeared. These were all part of the ultimate Maxim he had consolidated, and Merlin looked like he was the embodiment of darkness right then. Everyone felt like they were shrouded in darkness in his presence.

Swish!

Merlin took a step forward. The black chains began to dance in a frenzy and had almost trapped the entire golden river. This was the foundation of Maya's power, and it was currently battling against Merlin's ultimate Maxim.

Both opponents were now Honored Legends. Therefore, the outcome was no longer clear-cut. Merlin was no longer afraid of Maya upon becoming an Honored Legend. After all, his black chains were not any inferior to Maya's golden river.

Boom!

Finally, these two forces collided violently. All the surrounding dimensions in the Void Zone quivered. The aftershock nearly destroyed those dimensions.

Both of them took a few steps back. Merlin's gaze was steely as he stared at Maya and Maya's expression was sinking. That head-on collision just now between him and Merlin had been equally matched.

There was no longer a Wizard Heart behind Merlin. Instead, there was an incomparably huge black vortex that seemed like it could engulf everything in its path. There was complete darkness anywhere near the Darkness Vortex. No one could discern what laid inside.

This was one of the unique characteristics of the Darkness Maxim after he had consolidated the ultimate Maximengulfing!

Anything the Darkness Maxim touched would be engulfed entirely and shrouded within the darkness. This was the formidableness of an ultimate Maxim. Even the other Maxims would be dispersed under the influence of the Darkness Maxim.

Maya looked at Merlin with a complicated expression. For a brief moment, even his golden river seemed to have been engulfed. If he was shrouded by the ultimate Darkness Maxim, Maya was not confident that he could escape.

It was also Maya's first time encountering an Honored Legend from the Spell Caster civilization!

"An Honored Legend born in the direst circumstances. No wonder the Spell Caster civilization could become a powerful civilization in such a short time. Regardless, I still won't allow you to occupy the Golden Light Tribe's dimension!"

Maya was ironically inspired when he saw Merlin become an Honored Legend before his eyes. What dangers did he not come across back in the days when he was exploring alone? He was not afraid of anything or anyone at that time. No power or person could make him cower in fear.

Perhaps, it was this kind of attitude, matched with his natural talent, that allowed him to become the strongest contender of the Golden Light Tribe. In the end, he led the Golden Light Tribe to achieve a brand-new height. It was him who helped the Golden Light Tribe grew more powerful.

However, leading a civilization eventually affected him. From then onwards, Maya lost his fearless attitude and impulsiveness. All he had left was cautiousness.

Seeing Merlin's breakthrough in the direst circumstances reminded Maya of his old self. When danger was imminent back then, miracles would often occur to him too. That was the real Maya!

"Maya, now this is a fair battle!"

Merlin narrowed his eyes. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared into the shadows. He was rushing straight at Maya in the blink of an eye.

Splash!

The dazzling golden light that surrounded Maya burst open in every direction. Additionally, a golden river flowed beside him, larger and more terrifying than before.

Merlin's figure appeared amidst the golden river in an instant. However, the Darkness Maxim remained beside him and continued to battle with the golden light.

Black and gold intertwined together. The contrasting radiance was actually quite beautiful.

Soon, these two Honored Legends stirred up a frightful storm in the Void Zone.

"Darkness Engulf!" Merlin roared loudly.

The newly-consolidated Darkness Maxim transformed into chains and coalesced into a huge vortex in the sky.

Boom!

The Darkness Vortex was activated. All the nearby dimensions could see the huge black vortex inside the Void Zone. The Spell Casters were very vigilant. They could tell with a single look that this was not an ordinary Maxim.

"An ultimate Maxim And a Darkness-type spell too. Where did this Legend of Darkness come from?"

Many Spell Casters left their dimensions and flew towards the Gerva Dimension, which was also the direction in which Merlin and Maya were battling.

Although the Spell Caster civilization was already quite powerful, the birth of a Great Legend was highly celebrated. Even the birth of an ordinary Legend would have been shocking news among the Spell Caster civilization.

Let alone an Honored Legend!

If this news reached Setoh Arcane City, there would certainly be much fanfare.

However, Merlin did not have the mood to think about what a stir he had caused. He might have just consolidated an ultimate Maxim and became an Honored Legend, but he was now fighting all-out against Maya who was also an existence comparable to an Honored Legend.

The Maxim and the natural talent from the two opponents were engaging furiously in confrontation. The black vortex seemed as if it could engulf everything. Added with the constriction of the Maxim Chains, not a single Great Legend would be able to withstand it.

Maya was not an ordinary Legend though. His golden river was also powerful. The river gushed endlessly, and the golden light looked like it could disintegrate everything. Even with the protection of the Maxim Chains, Merlin did not dare to allow the golden light to shine on him.

The massive battle between the two had caused much of a stir in the Void Zone. Many strong contenders of foreign tribes turned their attention this way. After all, Honored Legend existences were relatively few in the boundless territory.

At the moment, no one noticed that a huge purple dimension was slowly approaching in a distance.

The purple dimension was incredibly peculiar. Many foreign tribes had already entered the purple dimension. The appearance of this dimension attracted strife between the foreign tribe civilizations.

Several foreign tribe civilizations had also discovered an earth-shattering secret inside the dimension, but it has not been circulated widely yet. After all, the Void Zone was too vast, and so was the boundless territory. Back then, the purple dimension had only been around the fringes of the boundless territory.

Right now, the purple dimension was floated towards the central region of the boundless territory. Hence, more and more strong contenders from foreign tribes began to take notice of this peculiar dimension.

"Haha, the purple dimension belongs to the Rock Tribe. No one can encroach. Anyone who enters the dimension will die!"

A few Rock Creatures had received news from somewhere and caught up to the purple dimension. Their voices reverberated pompously. Other than one Rock Creature, all the others had entered the purple dimension. They were obviously intending to get rid of the foreign tribes that had entered earlier.

In an instant, a vicious bloodbath unfolded inside the purple dimension. The foreign tribes had also been killing one another before this. This time, though, the Rock Creatures had greater numbers and greater advantages, so they were able to secure the purple dimension.

Nevertheless, they were still unable to stop the purple dimension from floating ahead. All they could do was threaten the strong contenders who attempted to approach the purple dimension. Whoever did not take their advice were immediately slaughtered.

"How? Have we discovered the secret of this dimension?"

Despite the meticulous preparations made by the Rock Tribe contenders, they were still confused when they entered this huge dimension. Up till now, they had not been able to discover the secret of this dimension.

This purple dimension was simply too vast. It was ten times bigger than the average dimensions. The Rock Tribe only gained an advantage because they found out the news early and entered the purple dimension one step ahead of the others. They were able to occupy the purple dimension using brute force.

However, their position might not be secured with the passing of time!

"There seems to be some elemental fluctuation ahead. Hmph, it must be those Spell Casters! Go ahead, get rid of the obstacles in front. We can't allow the purple dimension to fall into the hands of the Spell Casters."

A burly Rock Creature flew out of the purple dimension and headed towards the fluctuation in the front.

Boom!

A terrifying power exploded before the Rock Creature could reach the scene. That was the collision of two mighty forces which were the Maxim Chains and the golden rays respectively. The Rock Creature was unable to put up even the tiniest semblance of resistance before it was crushed into dust by the Maxim Chains.

Moreover, the aftershocks continued to pervade until it struck the purple dimension brutally.

The purple dimension settled down just for a moment. Then, a dazzling purple light spread widely in every direction and shrouded hundreds and thousands of dimensions around it.

At this precise moment, an implausibly ancient aura appeared amid everyone's senses, woven with a faint trace of inexplicable sorrow.

"What dimension is this?"

Merlin and Maya both stopped in their tracks and gazed in disbelief at the purple dimension in the distance. The ancient aura, coupled with the sorrowful sensation, could not be resisted by them. Both of them were plunged into an inexplicable sorrow.
