A Wizard’s Secret
chapter-488

In the sunny sky, a gigantic vortex had appeared, and a wide Spatial Gap had appeared in the vortex, widening rapidly as if it was about to tear the entire sky apart.

"What's going on here?"

"Who would dare to cast a spell above the Glorious Palace?"

A few Ninth-level Spell Casters immediately became wary. Such a large change was surely not a natural phenomenon of the weather and must be someone's spell. Moreover, the power of this spell far surpassed their imagination. Even the average Great Wizard would be unable to generate such a huge force.

One should not think that the vortex seemed rather small in the sky. In truth, the area of its expanse was more than a thousand miles, and it was still widening even more. No one knew what grievous effect it would induce.

Even space itself was ripped apart. This was not any ordinary Spell Caster!

"Humph, foreign and powerful Legendary Wizard, you're provoking me, the Great Legend Mogan! Have you really forgotten the Legends' Accord endorsed by the noble Arcane Wizard?"

Suddenly, a cold snort rang out from the Glorious Palace, following which a figure appeared in the sky, glaring icily at the giant vortex above. It was the noble Wizard Mogan!

Merlin's heart jolted. Based on Wizard Mogan's words, it was revealed that the appearance of this peculiar vortex was another Legendary Wizard trying to break into this dimension.

One should know that most dimensions could only accommodate one Legend. If a Legend entered a dimension which already had a Legendary Wizard, they would be an intruder.

This was a provocation toward the dignity of a Legend. In general, if Legendary Wizards who traveled through the Void Zone encountered a dimension, they should inspect it first to see if it was governed by a Legendary Wizard.

If there was none, then it was a dimension with no master. In that case, the Legendary Wizard could use every method at their disposal to occupy the dimension as their own.

If one still entered a dimension even if a Legendary Wizard oversaw it, it was equivalent to an act of provocation, and a rather serious one at that. This was happening before their eyes. A foreign Legendary Wizard had brazenly entered this dimension. It was the most serious offense, one which could lead to a war between the two Legends.

"The Legends' Accord? Of course I know of it, but it's simply a proposal of the Arcane Wizard, not a contract. Hehe, a dimension belongs to the strongest Wizard!"

From the vortex there came a burst of cold laughter, which did not seem to heed Wizard Mogan's warning.

"It shall belong to the strongest one indeed!"

Wizard Mogan narrowed his eyes slightly and a murderous force was exuded all over his body. He had overseen this dimension for so many years, and there had never been an intruder.

Even when a Legendary Wizard had passed by, they had arrived on friendly terms. They had not acted as intruders and were also willing to abide by the Legends' Accord.

However, this Legendary Wizard was obviously intending to break into the dimension as an intruder. Since that was the case, Wizard Mogan naturally did not have to hold back. He had traveled through many dimensions as well and battled with many gods. Thus, he was unafraid of battle.

"Swish."

Wizard Mogan raised his hand and the entire sky seemed to turn white.

"Crack crack."

The moment the white light appeared, the sky began to freeze over rapidly. At first, Merlin felt nothing much but soon, the Ice Maxim in his body started to stir restlessly, and the surrounding Ice Element surged wildly and gathered in the sky. Even Great Wizards would now be unable to mobilize Ice Element.

The Ice-type Spell Models in Merlin's body were faintly vibrating, and he had to suppress them by force using his Mind Power. This was merely a collateral trace of power. Wizard Mogan's real target was the intruding Legendary Wizard in the sky.

If Wizard Mogan was dealing with Merlin and some other Ninth-level Wizards or Great Wizards, he did not even have to make a move. A wisp of the Ice Maxim would cause the Spell Models in their bodies to collapse completely.

This was a Legend who had formed a Maxim, possessing terrifying strength which was akin to a god's, capable of destroying an entire dimension. Previously, Merlin had acquired an Ice Maxim as well as two other Maxims, items which had no masters. By themselves, the Maxims did not seem to have much power but if a Legendary Wizard condensed a Maxim and used it to attack, they could bring about catastrophic results.

Wizard Mogan, for instance, had condensed an Ice Maxim. If he wanted to, he could even seal the entire dimension in ice, causing every surface of this dimension to be buried under a thick layer of ice crystals.

No matter what, Great Wizards did not possess such fearsome powers. This was power on par with "gods", and was also the main reason Legendary Wizards could fight against gods. Having formed a Maxim, they were able to command a particular Element of an entire dimension.

The white light in the sky was Wizard Mogan's demonstration of the Ice Maxim. Once it was unleashed, the sky was frozen immediately. The vortex which had been growing in size, as well as the massive Spatial Gap, was easily frozen in place by Wizard Mogan.

"Shatter!"

Wizard Mogan gave a low cry. Instantly, the vortex was shattered, and the accompanying Spatial Gap vanished as well. The sky resumed its former brightness but that mysterious Legend still had not revealed his face.

"An Ice Maxim. Still, if all you have is this bit of strength, you're still not good enough."

The voice of the foreign Legendary Wizard rang out once more. A huge Spatial Gap split the sky once again as if it was a giant beast. The mouth of this "giant beast" seemed about to bite into Wizard Mogan.

"Hmm? You have many tricks indeed!"

An intense look of vigor flashed across Wizard Mogan's eyes. Seeing that the gigantic Spatial Gap was "chomping" toward him, Wizard Mogan was not fearful in the slightest. He pointed lightly, and boundless Ice Element converged and transformed into a giant beast of frost, which snarled in the sky. This beast began to battle with the "giant mouth" formed by the Spatial Gap.

"Swish."

Wizard Mogan's figure flashed and he immediately flew toward the Void Zone. He did not wish to wage war in the dimension. Although doing so might lend him greater strength, a fight between two Legends was likely to destroy the dimension. Wizard Mogan was not willing to damage this dimension, so he immediately dashed toward the Void Zone.

Soon enough, the sky had recovered its serenity. Wizard Mogan was gone without a trace but Merlin did not relax after Wizard Mogan had left. Conversely, he felt rather stifled.

Merlin knew that Wizard Mogan was now sure to be battling against that newcomer. That stranger was able to intrude into this dimension without any reservations and must have come prepared. Merlin was somewhat worried deep down. After all, Wizard Mogan was not considered a particularly powerful Legendary Wizard. He was just an average one.

"Swish swish."

Just then, Wizard Gritte suddenly emerged in the sky. A few unknown Wizards followed behind him, their bodies emanating with the fluctuations of Great Wizards.

Wizard Gritte's expression was solemn and grave as he said in a deep voice, "The dimension has been breached by an intruder but Wizard Mogan is personally dealing with it. All of you, don't panic. Return to your places, and don't leave the Glorious Palace without permission."

Wizard Gritte was in charge of the daily arrangements of the entire Glorious Palace, and was therefore still a rather imposing figure in the Glorious Palace. As soon as he spoke, the surrounding Glorious Wizards all left to return to the Glorious Palace.

Merlin was about to leave but he was halted by Wizard Gritte who told him softly, "Wizard Merlin, the Great Wizard Mogan had just conveyed a message, telling you not to worry for he's able to handle that Legendary Wizard."

Merlin nodded. It looked like Wizard Mogan was rather assured. That foreign Legend must not be that strong as well. Otherwise, they would have done more than just probe. They would have landed directly in the dimension and banished Wizard Mogan.

The previous vortex and Spatial Gap were merely the careful probing of that stranger.

"Then, I'll return to my residence first."

Merlin no longer planned to go to the Glorious Pavilion. Instead, he prepared to return to the small building. He believed that once Wizard Mogan returned, he would summon Merlin.

Soon, Merlin had turned to leave. Beside Wizard Gritte, the Great Wizards looked at Merlin's departing figure and said softly, "Wizard Gritte, that's the disciple Wizard Mogan had just accepted? To be able to defeat the Third Puppet when he's a mere Fifth-level Spell Caster, how impressive. Not even the previous three disciples of Wizard Mogan were at this level of genius."

"Since when was Wizard Mogan's judgment ever wrong? All right, we'll have to stabilize the Glorious Palace. Only by securing the Glorious Palace can we stop the dimension from falling into chaos."

Wizard Gritte glanced at the sky. He knew that however long the peace under this sky could be maintained hinged upon whether Wizard Mogan was able to stop this foreign Legendary Wizard.

If he was unable to stop the stranger, the entire dimension would be faced with catastrophe.

…

In the pitch darkness of the Void Zone, there was emptiness all around – no Elements, no space, not even time. The two Spell Casters faced off in the silent Void Zone.

"According to the noble Legends' Accord, this dimension is under my control. If you wish to enter, you'll have to seek my permission. Otherwise, you'll be treated as an intruder!"

Wizard Mogan glared at the lanky, blue-robed Spell Caster. The warning intent of his tone was very evident.

However, the blue-robed Wizard seemed to pay him no mind at all, laughing coldly. "The Legends' Accord isn't a contract. Hehe, I don't want to seize your dimension. All I want is to use the Wind Origin of your dimension. Perhaps the Wind Origin of a dimension would allow me to consolidate a Wind Maxim!"

Wizard Mogan's face changed greatly when he heard what the blue-robed Spell Caster had said. His earlier prediction had finally come true. The blue-robed Spell Caster before his eyes was a troublesome plunderer.

"You're a plunderer!"

Wizard Mogan's face darkened and he immediately raised his guard. Among Legendary Wizards, plunderers had a bad reputation. No Legendary Wizard who owned a dimension would wish to come across these plunderers.

A plunderer, at every dimension, would plunder the Elemental Origin of a dimension to condense a Maxim. Although this was indeed a quick method to form a Maxim, it would cause lasting damage to a dimension. It could even deplete a dimension, ruining it, and turning it into a desolate dimension with no Elements at all.

Therefore, plunderers were loathed by nearly every Spell Caster. However, each one of these plunderers was troublesome and difficult to deal with. Wizard Mogan had never expected to run into a plunderer.

"It looks like I'm in for a tough battle!"

Mogan's eyes narrowed slightly. He had already made up his mind to stop the plunderer from taking a single step in his dimension.
