Night Ranger - Chapter 475-481
p>After they reached an agreement, the page of the Book of Nalu automatically flew up and a faint yellow light spread out from the thin page.
The light covered the Destroyer and the latter’s movements suddenly stopped.
It felt like time came to a standstill.
The Book of Nalu could confuse people immensely, and even the ancient Destroyer couldn’t resist.
Marvin didn’t dare to tarry and quickly rushed to get what he needed.
He already had the Book of Forgiveness and only had to hand it over.
As for the page of the Book of Nalu, because of the resonance between the pages, he didn’t waste too much time on it and got the page.

He glanced at it, the page was unexpectedly the last page of the book of Nalu, the 11th page.
It was called [Reincarnation].
Reincarnation was sealed in an ancient amber. If not for the Book of Nalu’s pages resonating, no one would have noticed that this ancient amber contained a magical book page.
After taking care of those two things, he used the remaining time to look for the Wisdom Chapter.
Fortunately, the Book of Nalu needed to spend a lot of energy to control the Destroyer and was too busy to pay attention to what Marvin was doing.
This made it a lot easier for Marvin.
After all, he had to quickly find the Wisdom Chapter that would help him suppress the Book of Nalu.
A minute later, Marvin appeared at the edge of the lake.
After quickly taking a water breathing potion, he dove into the lake.
The layout at the bottom of the lake was very ingenious. The covers of the books were enclosed by special shells and air bubbles were there to prevent the books from being corroded by water.
Finding the Wisdom Chapter wouldn’t be easy. Marvin had to use Earth Perception and managed to find a conspicuous shell among the countless shells.
This shell was quite intricate and it looked very sturdy, but there was a layer of strange decorations on it.
It took a few seconds for Marvin to remember where he had seen that design before. It was the mark of the Ancient God of Wisdom.
That was most likely the Wisdom Chapter.
Time was pressing, so Marvin could only gamble.
Moreover, Fati was already dead. There was nothing to stop Marvin from plundering wantonly.
Although he was looking for the ancient book he needed, it didn’t stop him from taking all the books he saw on the way.
After two and a half minutes, Marvin left the lake.
The shells in this area had almost all been cleared out by him!
Marvin estimated that he had taken roughly 20 to 30 books. He now had more than 50 books in his storage.
This could be considered cleaning up the Dragon Library.
After finishing this, Marvin hoped to keep going.
He was still thinking of going to plunder the books in other areas.
Most of the time, knowledge is power, especially when it involved a library of the Dragon Race. Who knew what treasure would be inside?
But time didn’t allow for it.
The Book of Nalu roared, “Greedy brat! How many books do you need to get before you are satisfied?”
“The Destroyer is already regaining its mind. Although I can confuse it for a short time, it’s just delaying its awakening!”
“If you keep dragging your feet, don’t count on me!”
The Book of Nalu actually took the initiative to talk, which shocked Marvin.
In the past, this [Rebirth] page would use characters to communicate with Marvin.
For it to force itself to talk, it must really be unable to hold on.
After all, Destroyers were an incredibly terrifying ancient race.
Hearing this, Marvin gave up on his plan to keep going for more benefits and took the Book of Nalu to retreat.
The Dragon Soul had already told Marvin how to leave the Dragon Library. As long as he returned to his original place and said that Draconic sentence, he would be able to leave.
Although Marvin couldn’t speak Draconic, the Book of Nalu had already recorded the Draconic words for him and Marvin only had to pronounce those words the way they were written.
The Destroyer re-awakened on the shore and dragged its huge body to slowly move forward.
After a few seconds, the forest was close to being destroyed.
This scene was something alarming even for Marvin, who had already experienced the Great Calamity.
He used his peak speed to return to the mountain peak and quickly read that sentence aloud.
A halo of darkness shrouded Marvin. He glanced at the Destroyer’s sinister appearance before disappearing from the library!
…
Outside the pitch-black entrance, Marvin took a huge breath as if he had a new lease on life.
Although the whole process didn’t seem so traumatizing, the Destroyer’s smell truly made Marvin uncomfortable.
As for the Book of Nalu’s exceptional display, it made Marvin more vigilant.
Thus, when he left the library, he chose to put the Book of Nalu’s [Rebirth] page into an unused storage item.
When it noticed what was happening, the Book of Nalu roared, “You want to break the agreement? You promised to let me devour another page!”
Marvin laughed, “I don’t plan to go against our deal.”
“But, although I promised to let you devour another page, I didn’t say when.”
“The time will depend on my mood.”
After saying this, he stopped bickering with the [Rebirth] page and put it in the depths of the storage item.
In order to be sure that this page of the strange Book of Nalu wouldn’t do something shocking, he put the other page in the ancient amber into a different storage item.
That way, he could guarantee that the two pages were isolated.
In spite of this, Marvin was still somewhat worried.
‘There seem to be some issues with that [Rebirth] page.’
‘Although Rebirth was said to be the safest page of the Book of Nalu, after being nourished, the spirit of the page seems very formidable.’
Marvin’s anxiety wasn’t without reason.
This page of the Book of Nalu had swallowed a lot of Divine Source. Moreover, it was still controlling the souls of people like Raven and Madeline.
If it wasn’t for Hathaway putting a restriction on his body before, Marvin might have already been controlled by it.
It became so active lately that Marvin also wanted to restrain it.
Without a way to properly control it, it would be better to keep it in storage.
As for that completely new page, [Reincarnation], Marvin was also quite interested. He would definitely research it when he had some time.
But he now noticed that his surroundings were a bit strange.
‘Even if it’s the same pitch-black entrance, the colors of the floor and the ceiling have changed!’
‘This is definitely not the 2nd floor!’
Marvin looked at his surroundings in surprise.
He suddenly heard a discussion coming from a corner.
Marvin subconsciously used Stealth, but was startled when he saw an acquaintance.
‘Hehe… Ikarina…’
‘I didn’t expect to directly reach the 3rd floor.’
p>Black Dragon Ikarina wasn’t acting alone. A man with a blue gown was next to her.
It wasn’t hard to guess that this was the Ancient Blue Dragon.
The two were whispering, apparently discussing a deal.
Marvin was unable to understand what they were talking about since they used Draconic.
However, Marvin had been discovered by Ikarina before, which reminded him to be more careful as the Dragons’ Perception didn’t seem to be affected much by the Chromatic Altar or temple.
The strength of Blue Dragons was average, but all the Dragons here were Ancient Dragons.
In fact, even if Marvin had Weeping Sky in hand, facing a Dragon that was able to use magic would be very troublesome.
Dragons were very sensitive to killing intent, so even if he sneak attacked, it might not necessarily go smoothly.
Marvin managed to kill Fati in one move, but this was partly due to luck and the other side underestimating him.
If it was a Chromatic Dragon, except for a Black Dragon, Marvin wouldn’t be able to deal with it easily.
He could take care of the Black Dragons due to the weapon’s power.
He had just advanced to Legend, after all. Although the Human Race had the best potential, potential needed time and effort to turn into strength.
…
Thus, after finding the two Dragons, Marvin didn’t act impulsively and kept a certain distance from them instead: not too far, yet not too close.
He knew that finding the Nightmare Boundary was most important right now.
Even if he wanted to kill Ikarina, he would have a lot of opportunities in the Nightmare Boundary, so there was no need to worry about it right now.
As they were getting closer to the Dragon God’s tomb, the aura of Divinity was getting more and more intense, and thus, lifeforms with Divinity were becoming more numerous.
But they were easily dispatched by the Dragons.
Marvin was following them so he had it easy. He didn’t need to make a move against the monsters.
In fact, it was said that the Dragon God’s tomb was below the underground temple, but this was a rumor. Who knew if it was true?
As for the Nightmare Boundary, it was said to be in a large hall on the 3rd floor.
Marvin’s surroundings became increasingly darker as he walked forward.
The 3rd floor gave out an oppressive feeling, as if there were a bloodthirsty beast hidden in the shadows, ready to jump out anytime to swallow them in one bite.
The statues on both sides of the hall and hallways became even more realistic, looking like they might come to life.
These were the statues of the Dragon Race’s Guardians.
But the strange part was that the expressions of the statues were very malevolent. They were completely different from the [Loyal Tidomas] Marvin saw on the 1st floor.
These were clearly made by another craftsman.
Some statues had some dreadful traps attached and Marvin didn’t dare to rashly touch them, so he could only look.
In short, the underground temple’s 3rd floor was a lot more dangerous than the previous two floors.
But it was a very smooth trip for Marvin as he relied on the two Dragons.
With the two Dragons exploring ahead for him, Marvin only had to sneak behind them.
Soon, the two Dragons in front reached a wide hall.
This hall was different from the other halls they had been through. There was a huge statue of the Dragon God Hartson there!
‘Looks like this is the main temple.’
‘This should be the place where the Chromatic Dragons and their descendants would worship Hartson.’
Marvin looked at the two people walking toward the statue. He chose not to enter the hall but to hide outside instead.
He found a place to hide and patiently waited.
Because if this was the entrance of the Nightmare Boundary, the two Dragons wouldn’t go far.
They needed to wait for the arrival of the other Chromatic Dragons before opening the Boundary.
Especially Green Dragon Modana, since she was holding the key to entering the Nightmare Boundary.
Just as expected, while Marvin was waiting, the two Dragons paced back and forth in the hall.
They occasionally talked in Draconic, but not much. At this time, Marvin really wanted to learn Draconic.
Not being able to understand their words was too detrimental.
Unfortunately, the Book of Nalu couldn’t be used for now so he had to think of another way to learn Draconic.
There might be a chance with Professor.
The Chromatic Dragons and Metallic Dragons both came from the Twin Planes, sharing the same origin, and therefore spoke the same language. Only their magic and attributes were different.
…
Marvin waited for about half an hour outside the hall, and in that time, not only did the Chromatic Dragons arrive one after the other, but one of his teammates also arrived.
In fact, when Louise crawled over to Marvin as a gecko, he almost cut her down.
Fortunately, she proved her identity in time, or else not only would Marvin have harmed his ally, but they would have exposed themselves.
Louise was a friend of Blade Master Kangen and was said to be an extremely powerful caster.
Since she was Kangen’s friend, she naturally was a powerhouse of the Dead Area. The Dead Area had plenty of hidden talents, so it was quite normal for Marvin to not know about a powerhouse from there.
After greeting him in a small voice, Louise kept acting like a gecko.
Her Transfiguration skill was very mystical. There was no trace of Magic Power.
Perhaps she was bold due to being skillful, but after meeting with Marvin, she actually crawled into the hall. She was completely unlike Marvin, who didn’t dare to step inside.
Marvin wasn’t familiar with Louise. Both of them were basically helping out a friend, so it wasn’t that strange for them to work separately.
But it felt like this woman was provoking him.
‘She obviously could have greeted me without approaching. As a powerful caster, a bit of short distance mental communication shouldn’t be difficult.’
‘Crawling over as a gecko was just a way to test me.’
‘This woman is bored…’
Marvin’s mind was clear. Louise looked mysterious, but her behavior already revealed many details about her.
This woman would never be able to stay low-key or know her own place.
Marvin began thinking through events from his past life.
But a name like Louise was too common. Marvin had run into quests with three women named Louise, but none of them were powerful casters.
Blade Master Kangen and Professor had yet to arrive, which made Marvin a bit worried.
The Nightmare Boundary had four areas that might have the Crystal Statue and the Rainbow Spring. With only two people, their chances of getting the items would clearly be reduced.
But they apparently didn’t have time.
The Chromatic Dragons had already gathered under the Dragon God’s statue and were revolving around it while muttering softly.
Marvin decided to quietly sneak over.
The Perception of these Dragons was clearly at its lowest and Marvin was very confident in his Stealth.
How could he have expected that a very small voice would abruptly echo in his mind, ‘Why did you suddenly grow balls, kid?’
Marvin frowned and glanced at the gecko at the ceiling, but didn’t answer.
The other side didn’t use proper mental communication, instead only using a one-way communication message, which annoyed Marvin.
The feeling of her toying with him without being able to answer was really too hateful.
Thankfully, the Chromatic Dragons’ actions quickly diverted their attention.
…
The five Dragons were forming a group in the shrine.
As they continued muttering, halos floated down from the God’s statue and covered them.
It felt like an ancient soul awakened.
A glittering halo then blossomed from the statue.
Green Dragon Modana waved a heart-shaped pendant.
The pendant blended in the halo, and Modana followed up with some chanting.
Draconic began to echo in the hall.
As for that soul, it seemed to be awakening more thoroughly and it seemed like something was trying to burst out from the halo!
After two minutes, under the joint efforts of the Chromatic Dragons, an explosion echoed!
Dragon God Hartson’s statue actually cracked!
Pieces of rock filled with Divine Power dispersed around, and the whole hall began to shake.
Thankfully, this hall had already been reinforced by Divine Power and wasn’t destroyed by the event.
The five Dragons near the statue didn’t think that the opening of the Nightmare Boundary would create such a strong reaction.
A few people were smashed by the rocks. Modana and the White Dragon were sent flying.
Fortunately, they were Ancient Dragons and had powerful bodies. Even if their strength was reduced after shapeshifting, they just stood up and patted their clothes after that impact.
Marvin clearly saw that when the explosion occurred, there seemed to be a soul being freed from the statue.
As for the one who received the biggest attack, it was actually the Ancient Red Dragon Ell!
At least four rocks filled with Divine Power flew toward him, but they were all reduced to fine powder before they struck.
The Ancient Red Dragon was clearly stronger than his peers.
‘Even if he’s not at a Plane Guardian’s level, he should be close.’
‘That guy is overpowered… If not for the Wizard Alliance having a Legend Wizard who’d mastered [Dragon Killer Sword], the South’s Six Pearl Harbors might have been unable to stop him!’
Marvin looked apprehensive.
At the same time, he dispelled his intent to deal with Ell.
Ell had the most resources. His underwater lair, the [Lava Palace], was Feinan’s first Legend level instance.
The so-called Legend level instance required a group of at least 20 Legends to clear it.
There were countless treasures in the Lava Palace and they would appear randomly.
Marvin didn’t know what the real Lava Palace will be like, but it definitely had more treasures than in the game.
After all, this was the place where the Ancient Red Dragon kept all the treasures gathered over the course of his life.
And the Lava Palace’s Guardians weren’t easy to take care of.
The most powerful Guardian was naturally the last Boss, Ell. Apart from him, there were also two female Dragons, a Sword Saint who had been mind controlled for a millennium, a lair filled with Wyrmlings… In short, clearing the Lava Palace was very troublesome.
But there was also another way to clear it.
That was to take advantage of Ell going out to kill him.
It was a way to gain the key to pass through most of the Lava Palace.
This key would allow one to skip many troubles, leaving the two female Dragons as the only obstacles.
At the start, Marvin had wanted to get the key off Ell.
But now, he dispelled that thought.
He reckoned that he needed Ruler of the Night to reach at least level 4 before thinking of killing the Red Dragon.
With his current strength, he could only bully the magic-less Black Dragons.
…
The only thing that made Marvin feel slightly amused was that during the explosion, the gecko also had a hard time.
A few rocks flew toward the ceiling and if she hadn’t deftly dodged them, she might have been forced to show herself.
As for Marvin, because he was hiding in the distance, he simply wasn’t affected.
After the explosion, the statue had been replaced by a huge halo that started slowly dwindling.
Gradually, the halo retreated and a hollow Teleportation Gate appeared on the pile of crushed rock.
‘This Teleportation Gate is a bit too… complicated.’
Marvin only had a bit of knowledge about planes.
But because of the previous conquest of Arborea, he had learnt some relevant knowledge.
This Teleportation gate clearly wasn’t leading to a Demi-Plane!
This was the entrance to a whole new world!
…
The Chromatic Dragons had happy expressions. They all glanced at each other for a few moments before unhesitantly rushing through the Teleportation Gate and disappearing from the hall.
Louise and Marvin simultaneously appeared in front of the Gate.
“Interplanar Teleportation Gate.”
“No embedded structure, it’s actually suspended in midair…”
“Nightmare Boundary… Just like in the Legends. The Dragon Race’s final sanctuary… A new world?”
Louise had a grave expression as she looked at the Teleportation Gate while muttering to herself.
Her words confirmed Marvin’s thoughts.
The Nightmare Boundary wasn’t a Demi-Plane; it was possibly a Material Plane like Feinan!
At worst, it was a Secondary Plane!
‘The Nightmare Boundary was created by Dragon God Hartson…’
‘Did he have the ability to create an entire world?’
Marvin was shocked.
From what he knew, the current Gods residing in the Astral Sea didn’t have this kind of ability.
They conquered Secondary Planes and could create their own God Realms, but they couldn’t create a Material Plane.
Based on this, Dragon God Hartson seemed more powerful.
But even if he was a powerful Dragon God, he still was unable to avoid his destined fall. At the same time, he wasn’t Lance’s opponent.
It could clearly be seen how powerful Wizard God Lance was.
…
“Don’t stare blankly, kid,” Louise called out. “Kangen and Professor are still on the way, so we will go first.”
Marvin shrugged. “Let’s go.”
He was a bit surprised when Louise suddenly said, “Hold on… I think I should still warn you before you go through the gate.”
“If you go in, you might not be able to come back.”
“It’s rumored that the Dragon God foresaw the destruction of Feinan and created this new world to protect his offspring.”
“Unlike Dwarven and Elven Sanctuaries, this is a whole new world. You aren’t a caster and you don’t have the ability to travel across planes. Once you go through that gate, you might get lost in the Nightmare Boundary.”
p>Louise’s warning wasn’t unreasonable, but Marvin wasn’t completely unprepared.
Because of his plight in Arborea and his experience in the Secret Garden, Marvin paid attention to interplanar battles.
Before leaving White River Valley a while back, he made Madeline spend a lot to create a temporary Teleportation Gate.
Even non-Legend Wizard could use this item.
The portal made by that item could transfer Marvin back to White River Valley from any plane.
Thus, Marvin only smiled and thanked Louise for her good intentions before taking the lead to enter the gate.
They would be randomly teleported after passing through the Nightmare Boundary, even if they were to hold hands.
…
Interplanar Teleportation felt a lot different from long distance teleportation.
It felt like a long time, but only a few seconds passed.
When Marvin opened his eyes, he only saw a desolate desert.
This was the area of the Ancient Blue Dragons, one of the five areas of the Nightmare Boundary.
Deserts were the favorite environment of the Blue Dragons and they would have an advantage when fighting there, thanks in part to their expertise in using Dragon Magic for camouflage.
The Nightmare Boundary was very vast, and so was this desert.
This was a place for the Dragons to live in, after all. For a human like Marvin, it really was too vast.
After looking around, besides sand dunes, there were no landmarks to use to find his location.
Thankfully, Professor had told him about all kinds of situations that might occur in the Nightmare Boundary so he wouldn’t lose his mind.
‘There are four areas which might conceal the Rainbow Spring or Crystal Statue…’
‘Excluding the Black Dragon’s swamps, there are only the deserts, mountains, forest, and hills left.’
‘There should be an ancient well in the desert.’
‘It was said to be very conspicuous. A well for the Dragons… Wouldn’t that be a large hole for humans?’ Marvin thought.
Marvin took out a Shapechange scroll.
This was given to him by Professor when he chose to join the expedition.
It was quite useful.
[Fixed Shapechange Scroll (Draconic)]
[Effect: Can turn the target into a hawk]
[Duration: 60 minutes]
[Effect can be dismissed by using the incantation]
…
After using this Shapechange scroll, Marvin turned into a hawk and began to soar in the desert.
Dragon Magic was too powerful. Even if a Legend Wizard was proficient in making scrolls, his Fixed Shapechange Scrolls would last 30 minutes at most. Professor’s scroll was twice as effective.
The feeling of soaring in the sky felt wonderful. This made Marvin want to get a similar Shapechange.
After swallowing the Dense Blood Nucleus, he obtained the Vampires’ Low Flight ability, but it couldn’t allow him to fly high in the sky.
He also lacked a flying mount, or else he would have had no troubles on his travels.
But Shapechange wasn’t that easy to learn.
Among the advanced Ranger classes, there were actually some that could learn Shapechange, but they were mostly used for small lifeforms.
Shapechanging into a crow, otter, squirrel, or another similar creature was already very difficult.
They weren’t specialized Druid classes after all.
For Marvin, who already chose Night Walker as his advanced class and became a Ruler of the Night, there was only one way to learn Shapechange.
That was… A Nature Leaf, one of the leaves on the branch of the World Tree in Feinan.
When Marvin learnt [Basilisk Shapeshift] and [Vine Metamorphosis], it was through the Nature Leaves.
And most of the Nature Leaves were in the hands of the Migratory Bird Council.
After all, they were guarding Feinan’s World Tree, and the young Druids also needed Nature Leaves to learn Shapechange or to increase the level of their Shapechange.
‘Seems like this trip to the Supreme Jungle won’t only be to deal Endless Ocean’s matter. I’ll also need to get some Shapechange spells.’
A thief does not leave empty-handed. Although Marvin wasn’t a Thief, he still had his gamer attitude. He hadn’t reached the Supreme Jungle, but had already started plotting against it. Who knew how those Druids would react if they knew what he was thinking?
…
Flying in the desert was quite dull.
Besides flapping his wings from time to time, Marvin had basically nothing to do.
After using Shapechange, his attributes substantially changed. He more or less had a common hawk’s attributes.
Only his Stamina became endless due to the support of the Scroll’s magic.
In other words, before the Shapechange’s effects disappeared, he would be able to keep flying.
At the same time, he obtained a special passive, [Hawk Eye].
[Hawk Eye: You are able to clearly see any small details]
This passive allowed Marvin to not miss any part of the desert that might have an ancient well.
He didn’t even need to actively observe. He could see everything through Hawk Eye and it kept sending back information to Marvin’s mind.
This long and boring flight lasted no less than twenty minutes.
Some mountains could faintly be seen in the distance.
Marvin knew that he might have already flown out of the desert area.
‘Is that the wrong direction?’ Marvin thought.
He had to decide whether he should turn around or just enter the mountain range to try his luck there instead.
The mountainous area was the Black Dragons’ domain. This was one of the places that might hide the Rainbow Spring.
But finding a spring in this mountainous area would be very annoying. Marvin hesitated for a moment when he suddenly heard a thunderous sound, one that he was very familiar with!
‘It’s the sound of a Dragon flying at high speed!’
Marvin understood and immediately changed his bearing and started to descend before landing on a mountain peak.
In the distance, a shadow was quickly rushing forward!
‘It’s a small world…’
Marvin sneered.
Black Dragon Ikarina.
She was on her own.
If he didn’t act in such a situation, it wouldn’t be Marvin’s style!
The Hawk stared blankly at the Black Dragon flying past the boundary between the two areas, seemingly going toward the desert.
‘Does she know the location of the ancient well?’
Marvin immediately followed.
A hawk naturally couldn’t keep up with a Dragon’s flying speed, but Marvin was still able to track her as the Black Dragon didn’t hide her aura. Marvin followed her back into the depths of the desert.
…
After 15 minutes, Marvin caught up to Ikarina.
Sure enough, following the Black Dragon was a good idea, because there was a strange area ahead of them.
The Black Dragon was flapping her wings frantically, sending a great amount of sand flying everywhere.
That area gradually exposed its previously hidden appearance.
It was a huge hole!
From the Dragons’ point of view, this might be considered a well.
It was said that this well had never run dry and was the drinking water of the Blue Wyrmlings.
The water in the well contained enlightening wisdom and could let the Wyrmlings learn quickly.
But the huge hole had been buried in sand. A layer of light spilled on top of it, and it was now pitch-black with no sand covering it.
Marvin could faintly feel a heavy power coming from that hole.
‘Is it really in this well?’
Marvin looked at the huge hole as if it was a monster with bloody teeth. It gave him a bad feeling and made him want to shrink back.
But he suddenly felt danger, a powerful strength locking onto him.
He unhesitantly flapped his wings and left his spot.
A flaming hot Dragon Breath brushed past Marvin!
He hadn’t noticed the Black Dragon looking at him!
“I flew from the south to the north and didn’t notice any hawks in the Nightmare Boundary.”
“Modana, there is no point in playing useless tricks on me,” Ikarina sneered while looking at Marvin. “If you’re thinking about fighting over the Crystal Statue with me, then you should reconsider your strength.”
Modana?
Marvin froze. Ikarina actually thought he was a Green Dragon?
What was going on?
However, even if Ikarina discovered him, Marvin wasn’t afraid.
She was just an Ancient Black Dragon. How could Marvin be worried about her?
He had already killed a handful of Black Dragons!
The next second, Marvin inwardly chanted the incantation and turned back to his normal form.
Ikarina clearly became startled.
Marvin fell on the sand and without saying anything, rushed straight for the well!
The Black Dragon similarly didn’t say anything and pounced down.
Marvin sneered in his mind, ‘I’m not afraid of you rushing down, I’m afraid you would run away!’
Reacting to the Black Dragon’s aura behind him, Marvin suddenly turned!
[Eternal Night]!
With his Shadow Domain bonuses, the surroundings suddenly turned dark!
The Black Dragon had a bad feeling, but her momentum was too strong, she couldn’t escape.
Night Boundary!
Marvin instantly appeared on the Black Dragon’s head.
“In fact, for the sake of Izaka, I should keep you alive.”
“After all, there are only the two of you left in Feinan. Killing you would be rather unreasonable. However…”
“Those who scheme against me are already dead!”
Weeping Sky abruptly appeared and Marvin ruthlessly stabbed it down!
The Black Dragon’s neck suddenly rose. In this life and death situation, she stimulated her most frightening potential.
The Black Dragon spread her wings to the extreme, and all the scales contracted!
The next moment, her body unexpectedly did a 180° flip!
The Dragon’s body was frantically falling.
Such an unforeseen event actually made Marvin’s attack miss.
Weeping Sky had been stabbing toward her head, but it only managed to take out some scales!
Marvin forcibly regained his balance.
The Black Dragon suddenly twisted her neck and threw out a Dragon Breath in desperation!
A last-minute Dragon Breath naturally wasn’t as powerful as a prepared one.
But even a powerful Legend Barbarian would turn to ashes when facing it!
Marvin didn’t dare to take it head-on.
Although he couldn’t fly, relying on Eternal Night and Night Boundary, he could freely appear anywhere in the surroundings.
He dodged.
The desperate Dragon Breath went past Marvin’s original location and hit her own body since Marvin was way too close to her. The resplendent scales emitted a burnt smell!
But in any case, Ikarina managed to escape.
Her mind was filled with fear!
If she hadn’t dodged Marvin’s spear, she might have already died!
She immediately turned around, trying to escape from that dark area!
She noticed that this night-like area seemed to be Marvin’s field. Moreover, he still had the Dragon Slaying Spear!
The Black Dragon’s flying speed was rather impressive!
Marvin kept disappearing through the night, closing in on her.
But the Black Dragon’s will to live was quite formidable. She burst out with all of her potential and was about to escape from the surrounding Eternal Night.
Marvin didn’t think that Ikarina’s strength would be so much higher than Izaka’s.
She was the strongest Black Dragon in Feinan.
Marvin reckoned that not many Dragons would have been able to avoid his previous attack!
‘What a pity!’ Marvin frowned.
If he let the Black Dragon escape, not only would he have wasted his skill uses, but she would also be troublesome in the future.
But he lacked chasing skills.
A Ruler of the Night’s burst power was quite powerful, but Marvin couldn’t catch her if she was blindly escaping.
But Marvin wasn’t one to give up halfway.
Just as she was about to escape the Eternal Night, her body hit a wall.
Her head twisted and she fell down from the sky!
Marvin took advantage of this sudden event.
Although he didn’t know what happened, it would be better to kill Ikarina first!
After using Night Boundary once more, Marvin’s legs appeared on the Black Dragon’s back.
The Dragon Slaying Spear burst out with great force as it directly locked onto the Black Dragon’s heart!
This was the power of Weeping Sky.
This spear possessed such a hatred of Dragons that it would help with its user’s accuracy!
“Roar!”
The Black Dragon’s unwilling roar echoed through the sky.
Then, the tip penetrated through the cold scales and pierced the Black Dragon’s heart.
Her body fell awkwardly to the ground, struggling twice before her amber eyes gradually lost their brilliance.
Marvin took a deep breath on the Black Dragon’s back.
That fight was quite short, but it consumed almost 70% of his stamina.
Even though he managed to kill Ikarina, he still couldn’t relax.
Because there were still others.
Marvin silently pulled out Weeping Sky. He didn’t even dare to check his interface and instead calmly looked at his surroundings. “Come out, Modana.”
“I know you aren’t afraid of me.”
p>The desert was cold and silent.
Eternal Night had already been removed and Marvin was standing on top of the Black Dragon’s corpse while holding his spear. He looked extremely arrogant.
But he knew that even if Weeping Sky was quite useful against the Black Dragons, it wouldn’t be as overbearing against the other Dragons.
Sure enough, the sky shook and a small Green Dragon slowly descended.
“You are quite clever.”
“Marvin, right? I heard of your name. You have been in the limelight in Feinan recently.”
“I loathed Ikarina, thus I helped you. To repay me, you wouldn’t mind not plundering our Dragon Treasures?”
Modana kept a certain distance from Marvin. Green Dragons were crafty and cautious and wouldn’t rashly make a move against powerhouses.
Marvin smiled, “You said it yourself, you loathed Ikarina. By blocking her, you helped yourself.”
“Maybe in your mind, Ikarina is far less threatening than me, a mere Human. Am I wrong?”
The Green Dragon revealed her sinister teeth. “If you are that smart, then you should run away.”
“I’m not a waste like the Black Dragon. My spells can easily tear you to shreds!”
Marvin frowned.
Green Dragons were really too troublesome.
Her Dragon Breath was poisonous. Even with Marvin’s current resistances, he might not be able to survive.
Let alone when her Draconic magic was mixed in. Marvin might not necessarily win when fighting in the open.
He glanced toward the ancient well.
The Green Dragon’s reaction was very fast.
She coldly groaned and faintly flapped her wings, causing two breezes to suddenly sweep over.
In an instant, two groups of Kobolds appeared in the originally empty desert!
On top of that, two toad-like lifeforms quietly appeared and then quickly vanished.
They should be hiding underground.
The Kobolds were set up in an unwavering formation between Marvin and the well.
Marvin shivered.
‘Wyrmwarped Kobolds… And Hobbler Decoys…’
‘[White Slaads]…’
They weren’t average monsters!
It was well-known that Kobolds had a bit of Dragon bloodline, but few Dragons would get in contact with Kobolds, though Green Dragons were some of those that did.
The Ancient Green Dragon’s [Dominate] was enough to control a pack of elite Kobolds!
Those Wyrmwarped Kobolds and Hobbler Decoys summoned by Modana were even level 20 Half-Legends!
An ordinary Legend would find it very hard to deal with these dozen or so monsters.
And there were even Legend Monsters, White Slaads.
Although they hadn’t become Black Slaads, their final evolution, they were still very troublesome.
They would hide underground, ready to mortally wound their enemy anytime.
The Green Dragon was trying to intimidate Marvin!
This was the nature of Green Dragons. Facing a weak enemy, they would directly act using Dragon Breath or attack with their tails.
However, when facing a powerhouse, they were unwilling to take the initiative to start a fight. They used intimidation and other means to force their enemies away without fighting.
Marvin glanced at his interface.
Just as expected, Modana had used intimidation skills during their discussion.
These skills should have a strong effect with Dragon Might’s bonus.
But Marvin didn’t feel anything.
Marvin’s willpower was very high now, and along with Weeping Sky’s immunity to Dragon Might, it allowed him to remain calm in such a situation.
“Last warning.”
Modana flapped her wings, somewhat impatient.
The Kobolds howled loudly, ready to swarm him at any moment.
These level 20 Kobolds might be able to trouble Marvin.
“Leave. Otherwise I won’t mind turning you into a puddle of acid!”
[Major Intimidate]!
Modana’s sentence even seemed like a low roar!
But what puzzled Modana was that her Intimidate didn’t have any effect.
Marvin was still completely calm.
This was a rare outcome.
Most Human Legends, many even stronger than Marvin, would be unable to resist her Intimidation.
This was natural fear from a weak race toward a lifeform at the top of the food chain. It couldn’t be changed.
‘Do I really have to attack?’
Modana looked at the Dragon Slaying Spear in Marvin’s hands and felt a bit nervous.
She saw the scene of Marvin killing Ikarina very clearly. it was direct and efficient, leaving no way out.
Although her Draconic Magic was an advantage that Ikarina didn’t have and allowed Modana to use various tricks, the risks were too high when facing this kind of opponent.
While Modana was still hesitating, Marvin had already made a decision.
[Earth Perception] let him feel that the layer of light on top of the ancient well was already gone.
Marvin then disappeared, charging toward the well like lightning!
The Green Dragon roared and pounced at him.
At the same time, the Kobolds howled and brandished their weapons, trying to block Marvin’s path!
But unfortunately, even if these lifeforms were close to the Legend Realm and were powerful, their speed couldn’t even be compared to Marvin’s!
Godly Dexterity wasn’t just for show!
“Woosh!”
Marvin brushed past the Kobolds like a gust of wind and quickly reached the edge of the well.
At that time, a shadow suddenly emerged from the sand and stabbed toward Marvin’s chest.
‘I was waiting for you!’ Marvin inwardly sneered.
He used Shadow Step and perfectly dodged the White Slaad’s tongue.
This kind of sneak attack was what White Slaads were experts at. Their tongue stabs had immense penetrating power, and clueless adventurers would easily have their hearts pierced!
In the game, after Marvin ascended to Godhood, he came across an ancient vestige.
That vestige was full of Slaads of different colors, from the basic Slaads to the powerful White Slaads, there were even the most formidable Black Slaads. He experienced all their strengths.
Naturally, he knew their attacking style, thus dodging wasn’t difficult.
He didn’t want to kill these monsters right now, the priority was to get into the well before the Green Dragon!
Marvin would be at a disadvantage when fighting in the desert.
The Green Dragon could fly and use all kind of spells and had reinforcements while Marvin was alone and would only be on the defensive.
Rather than fighting her outside, it was better to get in the well.
Although this ancient well was a huge hole to Marvin, it was still a narrow well for the Green Dragon.
If Modana wanted to go in, she would have to use Shapechanging.
Regardless what shape she changed into, it wouldn’t be as powerful as her main body.
Thus, Marvin’s condition was very good.
Moreover, Marvin could feel that the terrain under the well was quite complicated, he might be able to sneak attack her.
…
Relying on his outstanding speed, the monsters couldn’t stop Marvin from running away.
He quickly arrived in front of that huge hole.
With a glance, he could see that the hole wasn’t too deep and was filled with entrances. It looked like a huge maze.
Hearing the wind behind him, Marvin unhesitantly jumped in!
He couldn’t fly like a dragon, but he could use the Low Flight ability he learnt from the Dense Blood Nucleus.
Although this ability couldn’t let Marvin fly freely, it was similar to the Feather Fall skill, he wouldn’t crash on the ground but would softly land instead.
Marvin felt comfortable in the darkness of the well, in a blink he reached the ancient well’s bottom.
A loud noise came from above.
The well’s floor was made of soft sand and there was a total of five tunnel entrances. Each tunnel entrance had a different design.
Red flames, lush vegetation, desolate sand, undulating mountain range, swamps.
This seemed to signify the various terrains loved by the Chromatic Dragons.
There was nothing apart from this.
Just the five entrances.
Marvin raised his head, the Kobolds were already rushing over to kill him in the well.
He didn’t hesitate anymore and entered the desert entrance!
…
Outside the well, the Green Dragon had on an unsightly expression.
She hesitated for a bit before ultimately Shapechanging to human form, charging in with her troops.
As for the Black Dragon’s corpse, it was calmly lying there.
No one noticed that her blood was seeping into the vast desert, seemingly being absorbed, leaving no bloodstain.
No one noticed that pair of eyes glancing at this world.
“Black Dragon Blood…”
“So you moved ahead of time?” That powerful existence mumbled to himself.
He was standing outside the plane, overlooking the entire Nightmare Boundary, a sneer appearing on his face.
“Chromatic Dragons… My children… I waited for you for too long.”
“Oh! There is a Metallic Dragon joining in on the fun.. Eh? The aura of a Human? Hold on… It’s that guy… Interesting.”
“Seems like this time, new and old hatred can be settled together.”
Outside the Nightmare Boundary, that person snickered before turning into a shooting star slowly falling toward the Nightmare Boundary.
…
North of the Nightmare Boundary.
In the mountain range, three shadows were in a confrontation.
“Ell, although you are powerful, there is two of us. We aren’t necessarily outmatched.” The Blue Dragon coldly said, “The Rainbow Spring is the Chromatic Dragon Race’s treasure, you can’t keep it all for yourself.”
“Exactly.” The White Dragon on the side echoed his words.
Standing in front of them was the Ancient Red Dragon Ell.
These three Dragons seemed to have found the location of the Rainbow Spring in the mountain range and were in a confrontation.
Ultimately, because Ell was too powerful, the Blue and White Dragon had no choice but to temporarily join hands.
Ell sneered, “Idiots. This place is a possible location, that’s all.”
“It’s rumored that the Rainbow Spring’s appearance would be followed by a shooting star. It’s broad daylight, how…”
He didn’t get to finish his words.
A bright meteor was falling in the sky!
p>The meteor was falling down pretty fast and quickly disappeared behind the horizon.
The three Dragons foolishly looked at it.
Ell couldn’t help frowning.
Could this really be the Rainbow Spring’s location?
Was the prophecy left behind by the Dragon God before his death so accurate?
Ell was naturally suspicious, he felt a bit uncomfortable.
But the other two Dragons didn’t think so.
They considered the relics of the Dragon God as supreme treasures. With the appearance of the meteor, the Rainbow Spring had most likely appeared.
They immediately took advantage of Ell being distracted to rush to that valley.
The Red Dragon saw their impulsive actions and inwardly sneered before unhurriedly following.
…
This was a valley that couldn’t be considered very vast, especially for the huge Dragons.
If not for their advanced Shapechange skills, going in would be very troublesome.
The valley wasn’t very deep.
There was really a clear spring at the end of the valley.
The spring emitted a powerful strength, the three Dragons could feel it even from far away.
Moreover, they could sense that the power of the spring had the same root as them.
This was exactly like the legend.
“Rainbow Spring!”
“It’s the true Rainbow Spring!”
The White Dragon and Blue Dragon were extremely moved, only Ell was hesitating.
This spring water seemed to originate from underground, and it wasn’t scarce.
It was said that they only needed to drink a mouthful from the Rainbow Spring to be able to recover their former strength.
It looked like this Rainbow Spring was enough for all of the Chromatic Dragons to regain their powers.
“Looks like we don’t have to fight to death.” The White Dragon said in excitement, “His Highness Hartson left us enough inheritance.”
“Indeed.” The Blue Dragon agreed with his words. The two glanced at each other before rushing over, unable to endure any more.
Their eyes were filled with greed.
But Ell suddenly said with a cold voice, “What if this spring is poisonous?”
The other two Dragons snorted disdainfully, “Poison? Ell, stop being so suspicious.”
“Are you planning to use [Detect Poison]?”
“I’ve never heard of a poison able to kill a Dragon in Feinan…”
Ell remained unmoved by the two Dragons mocking him.
He took two steps back instead.
As the currently strongest Chromatic Dragon, his strength has long since neared the Plane Guardians’ level.
He was ruthless, vicious, and possesed exceptionally sharp instincts.
Being able to foresee danger was the reason for him surviving so long.
When he attacked the East Coast, it was his instinct that led him to dodge the Dragon Killer Sword as well as the follow-up attack of the Wizard Alliance.
Ever since then, he became even more cautious.
And now he had a feeling that there was an issue with this well.
Meanwhile, the other two Dragons already started drinking the spring water.
…
On the 3rd floor of the underground temple, two silhouettes appeared in front of the Teleportation Gate.
“We are too late.” Kangen’s face sank.
Copper Dragon Professor was beside him, but right now, he didn’t look good.
“I did something unnecessary.”
“I didn’t expect that person’s reprisals to be so heavy…”
Professor bitterly smiled, “I also didn’t expect that the Rainbow Spring we were trying to prevent the Chromatic Dragons from getting was actually…”
He stopped his sentence and sighed.
The two were late for a reason.
They had various opportunities in the underground temple and uncovered a shocking secret.
This secret not only involved Dragon God’s Hartson, but also Tidomas and the Nightmare Boundary itself!
This was a huge conspiracy!
And in the process, Professor was stopped and beat up by a powerful existence in a bad mood.
The Copper Dragon couldn’t even retaliate.
The helpless feeling of only being able to hold it in was something the Copper Dragon hadn’t experienced for a very long time.
When they finally arrived there, the Nightmare Boundary had already been opened.
Preventing this huge plot seemed unlikely.
“I hope nothing happens to Louise and Marvin.” Kangen was still expressionless, “Maybe you should notify your fellow Dragons.”
Professor nodded, “I already sent out what I learnt, they will be waiting for an opportunity to move.”
“Right now, we still have to go in.”
“After all, I can’t let Louise and Marvin face such a frightening existence.”
“Moreover, if that person’s plot succeeds, the Nightmare Boundary will become his launching point.”
“Feinan will be in huge danger…”
The two men glanced at each other, ultimately going in the Teleportation Gate.
…
Outside the Universe Magic Pool.
Under the lead of the three Great Gods, the Gods kept attacking the layer of the Universe Magic Pool.
Although they met bitter resistance, that resistance was annihilated.
Eric, the youth who took over an Astral Beast’s body, had already died.
After taking down several Gods, the Great Elven King’s life was also extinguished.
The North Guardian, that unknown old man who kept carrying a jar of wine and scrounging meals in the barbarian tribe, also died from too much injuries.
The Universe Magic Pool’s 3rd layer was already ruptured.
The Gods’ plans were about to be successful.
It was as if they could already see the 4th Fate Tablet waving at them.
Only the West Guardian, the Cloud Monk, was still alive.
The Cloud Monk had Longevity and Nirvana Rebirth.
Despite being killed several times by the High Gods, he kept tenaciously resurrecting.
This resurrection ability was different from the Gods’ Divine Source, it was a pure miracle of the human body.
The Cloud Monk’s power made the Gods speechless.
Despite the hostility, many Gods couldn’t help but admire him. But they could also feel that the Cloud Monk’s aura of Longevity was continuously weakening.
He might only be able to resurrect a few more times. He was also reaching his limit.
When the time came, there would be no one else to stop them.
At that time, Anuba, the God of Dawn and Protection suddenly stopped his attack.
He looked at the other two Great Gods and said, “I need to leave for a bit.”
The other two weren’t surprised, “It’s that one?”
“Indeed, that group of stupid Dragons couldn’t solve that problem. Feinan is our world, not his.”
“And… There seem to be some old grudges between you. It’ll be better to settle this before we enter Feinan.”
Anuba Grant nodded and disappeared.
The Gods were in uproar.
At this time, what was more important than attacking the Universe Magic Pool? What could make the Great God of Dawn and Protection, Anuba Grant, to personally leave?
…
Under the ancient well, paths extended in different ways.
This was a complete maze, spreading in all directions.
Despite Marvin making marks on the way, after taking a path, he still ended up lost.
This place was like the caves of the Dwarven Kingdom.
‘When did Dragons start digging holes?’
‘Could this be the work of a sandworm? Even if it was a Lesser Dragon species, it was rarely related to Chromatic Dragons, would the Chromatic Dragon God let them enter the Nightmare Boundary?’
‘Isn’t this an ancient well? How could a well have so many passageways?’
Marvin became increasingly suspicious as he moved forward.
He felt that there was something wrong with the information received by the Metallic Dragons.
There might even be an issue with the Chromatic Dragons’ information.
This Nightmare Boundary was strange in all aspects.
Dragon God Hartson wasn’t a good person. Even if he was the Chromatic Dragon God and swore to forever protect his descendants, he was still inherently an Evil God.
And he came from another corner of the Universe.
He was beaten up by Wizard God Lance and ultimately fell silently. Like the Nightmare Boundary, everything was mysterious.
Him choosing Tidomas to guard his corpse was also an enigma.
After dealing with the Dragon Soul, Marvin was already doubtful about Tidomas’ identity.
Did this place really conceal the Crystal Statue?
This was like looking for a needle in a haystack!
Marvin was depressed. He couldn’t determine which path to take and decided to simply keep going forward.
He was extremely quick and didn’t meet any monster on his way. Soon, something strange happened on the path.
He apparently left the maze.
This was a wide underground space, and a locked door was at the end of the space.
This entrance had countless runes and locks, looking quite sturdy.
But the entrance itself was transparent.
Through this entrance, Marvin could see a faintly discernible statue!
[Crystal Statue]!
Marvin squinted.
Could this really be a relic left by Dragon God Hartson?
Who would have thought that when he was about to step forward, a pure white light shone from the stone wall.
That was a fairy looking lifeform.
It had a small pair of wings and had a humanoid appearance.
But its voice was old and prideful, “Stay! Kid!”
“Who are you? You dare enter Sir Lance’s seal?”
Marvin was dumbstruck.
This place was related to Wizard God Lance?
Marvin doubtfully looked at the Fairy. That thing seemed to lack Magic Power and didn’t look threatening.
“Who are you?”
“Isn’t this Dragon God Hartson’s Nightmare Boundary? How could this be related to Wizard God Lance?”
The Fairy proudly said, “Since you know of Wizard God Lance’s name, you should obediently get out of here!”
“Dragon God Hartson had conspired with the Evil Spirit World in order to invade Feinan, and the Nightmare Boundary was his springboard.”
“This is where Sir Lance foiled the Dragon God’s plot, it is also sealing the passage between the Evil Spirit World and Nightmare Boundary. It’s not a place a Human like you should approach.”
Marvin was stunned.
But before he could recover, a green shadow emerged from another entrance and rushed over!
“Crystal Statue!”
“This is mine!”
Green Dragon Modana!
p>”Stop her!” the Fairy anxiously shouted.
Marvin was stunned. The Green Dragon appeared way too quickly and Marvin’s attention had been focused on the transparent entrance. He didn’t have time to react.
As for the Fairy, it didn’t seem to be very powerful and simply didn’t have the strength to stop Modana.
“Woosh!” That Green silhouette rushed through the transparent entrance!
The Fairy covered its face with its palms as it wailed, “Over!”
“It’s all over!” It was very depressed. “I’ve failed the task Sir Lance gave me.”
Marvin didn’t pay attention to its complaints, focusing on the changes of the transparent door instead!
That so-called seal didn’t prevent Modana from entering.
Her body seemed to distort, which indicated that a considerably strong force field was inside.
But due to the Dragon Race’s tenacious bodies, she managed to resist.
It looked like she was about to reach the statue when a powerful force burst out!
In an instant, a flame appeared on Modana’s hand as she was about to touch the statue.
“Aah!”
A miserable shriek burst out from Modana’s mouth. Marvin could see that terrifying flame that was comparable to Divine Fire thoroughly scorching the Green Dragon!
But Modana was a Dragon, after all, so her Draconic Magic was also formidable.
She quickly made a powerful counterattack and kept using all kinds of magic in order to try to get rid of the negative effects.
However, her spells didn’t seem to be very effective.
“Useless.” The Fairy’s tone contained a hint of pity. “Sir Lance’s Divine Punishing Fire would even turn Gods to ashes!”
Marvin shivered before asking in bewilderment, “Then what were you worrying about?”
The Fairy explained while feeling vexed, “Each Millennium, Sir Lance would personally come here to strengthen the seal.”
“The Dragon God’s Divine Source isn’t that easy to seal, after all, and furthermore, the Evil Spirit Sea’s power is constantly corroding the seal.”
“I am in charge of guarding this area. Usually, I would be able to handle normal situations.”
“But my Magic Power is limited. Sir Lance didn’t appear when he should have last millennium. Thus, I could only rely on my own strength to guard this seal. As time went on, I’ve been running out of Magic Power.”
“In other words, even if the Divine Punishing Fire can still function, the seal itself is weakening.”
“That wretched Green Dragon not only sent herself to death, she also left us some troubles!”
Marvin listened, puzzled.
At that time, behind the transparent door, the Green Dragon still seemed to be trying to struggle free.
But she was bound to be disappointed.
A big, rotten hand appeared from nowhere, reaching out to catch her.
A gloomy laughter followed. “Hehe…”
“My dear child, your help is greatly appreciated.”
That was a familiar voice that could make others shiver in fear.
Marvin was startled and couldn’t help but blurt out, “Tidomas!”
The Fairy glanced at Marvin strangely and said, “What Tidomas?”
“That’s clearly the scoundrel, Hartson!”
Marvin’s eyes widened.
The Fairy looked angrily at the situation behind the door. Green Dragon Modana was lightly grabbed by that big hand and terrifying Negative Energy was transmitted to her body.
The Divine Punishing Fire shockingly stopped burning.
But as a price, the Green Dragon began to rot everywhere.
“This is… Corrupting Ritual?”
Marvin crossed paths with Evil Spirits many times, from the low level Evil Spirit Envoys to the high level Evil Spirit Overlords. He knew that raw fighting strength wasn’t the most terrifying side of the Evil Spirits. Rather, it was the irreversible ability to corrupt minds.
Regarding this point, the Evil Spirit Sea was more dreadful than Chaos Magic Power.
Most people corrupted by Devils ended up that way due to greed, while victims corrupted by Chaos Magic Power succumbed due to their wills not being firm enough.
But those corrupted by the Evil Spirit Sea fell because they were unable to resist that formidable strength!
There was a rumor in the Negative Energy Plane.
When the last Evil Spirit Overlord was born from the Evil Spirit Sea, the greatest beings would acknowledge allegiance, and the universe would experience the Evil Spirit Sea’s tide.
Everything would be obliterated, only leaving the aura of putrefaction and lands filled with negative energy for the Evil Spirits.
…
Looking at Modana struggling powerlessly, Marvin’s heart froze.
He hadn’t expected that his trip to the Nightmare Boundary would be related to the Negative Energy Plane.
That voice was clearly the voice of the Tidomas he met before.
Marvin remembered that after he killed Diggles, Tidomas resented him.
Although he didn’t know what that guy had planned, it looked very dangerous.
Marvin was certain that Tidomas would kill him if he had time.
This might be an Outer Plane, and with Tidomas’ strength, if he wanted to kill Marvin, it would probably be as easy as crushing an insect!
After all, he was still far from being able to fight against a true God.
The most important matter right now was to figure out what was happening.
Marvin grabbed the Fairy and quickly asked, “Where is this place? Why did you say he was Hartson?”
“Tell me what you know, tell me everything.”
…
In the valley.
Ell was looking coldly at the White Dragon and Blue Dragon crazily drinking from the Rainbow Spring.
The promise of formidable strength was truly enticing to him.
It had been many years since he felt the feeling of breaking through.
His strength had long since reached a bottleneck. Over the years, he looked throughout the universe for many treasures but never found a way to settle this problem.
And the Rainbow Spring before his eyes was definitely able to increase his strength!
This was an intense feeling that Ell couldn’t bear.
But the reason Ell was so outstanding was his even more formidable instinct.
The more enticing something was, the more suspicious he was.
‘No way, I need to find Modana to make it clear.’
The Red Dragon turned, intending to leave the valley.
He felt that he would be unable to continue resisting the temptation if he stayed.
In any case, the Rainbow Spring was flowing endlessly, so these two foolish Dragons wouldn’t be able to finish it.
It would be fine to drink after making sure there was no issue with it.
But he didn’t expect a painful howl to echo behind him just as he was about to leave!
Ell spun back around!
A piercing Dragon’s roar burst out in the valley!
As Ell watched in shock, the Blue Dragon and the White Dragon were already unable to keep maintaining their Shapechange.
They were now in their original forms.
But what gave him chills was that whether it was the White Dragon’s snow-white scales or the Blue Dragon’s rough and sturdy skin, both started peeling off.
They were being replaced by rotting moss.
Their flesh began to fall down and even their skeletons could be seen!
A deep voice echoed beside Ell’s ears, “You are clever.”
“I’ll give you a chance. Become my Deputy. You won’t be like them, you’ll become a true Corrupt Evil Dragon.”
p>Following this evil voice, a middle-aged man with a blurry face appeared at the entrance of the valley.
Ell looked at the approaching man with shock and asked in a quivering voice, “Are you Tidomas?”
The man laughed. “Tidomas is a good subordinate.”
“I made his reputation shake the entire Universe, I didn’t let him down.”
“But don’t misunderstand, dear child. I am your supreme God.”
“I am Hartson.”
…
“Tidomas is Dragon God Hartson?”
“The Dragon God’s fall was actually a trick?”
Outside the transparent entrance, Marvin had listened intently to that Fairy, and the conclusions from his analysis made him shake his head silently.
Because he met that Dragon Soul, Marvin more or less knew the entire process.
From the Fairy, Marvin learnt that Dragon God Hartson had made many attempts to control the world while he was alive.
He had already joined the Evil Spirit Sea and united with the Negative Energy Plane’s other Overlords in order to enter Feinan.
But his plan was foiled right at the start by Wizard God Lance.
During his final attempt, he was deprived of some of his Divine Source by the Wizard God and sealed in the Nightmare Boundary.
At the same time, Hartson promised to seal the Nightmare Boundary.
The Black Dragon Race’s betrayal and the Chromatic Dragons’ civil war were actually just pretexts he used.
In his fight with Lance, he lost.
But he wasn’t resigned to his fate.
He wanted to make a comeback.
But this would be forever impossible while Lance was there.
And Dragon God Hartson had ruled over half of the Twin Planes for a very long time. Along with his long travel through the Universe, he didn’t have long left to live.
Thus, he made a bold decision.
He began setting up his fall.
Before playing dead, he summoned his most loyal Dragon Tomb Guardian, the true Tidomas, to his side. He gave the order that only Tidomas could guard his “corpse”.
After careful calculations, the time the Dragon God fell was about the time Lance led the Night Monarch and the others on an expedition outside Feinan. At that time, the Wizard God seemed to have overlooked his plot.
In short, the real Tidomas became a scapegoat.
Even his soul was imprisoned underground.
He offered his own Divine Source to the Evil Spirit Sea.
Even though that powerful existence developing in the Evil Spirit Sea had yet to be born, it still had a hazy consciousness.
It accepted Hartson’s offering.
Hartson’s entire Chromatic Dragon Cemetery was dragged to the Negative Energy Plane and his transformation was complete.
From that point on, the world had a new Evil Spirit World, the [Evil Dragon Cemetery]!
He stole Tidomas’ name and body so that if the Wizard God tried to use a Divination skill, there would be an interference caused by the Evil Spirit Sea.
This trick was apparently successful.
The Wizard God wouldn’t care about a Corrupt Dragon. After all, he had many things to deal with.
Hartson began to silently save his strength.
He also gradually spread all kinds of rumors and so-called prophecies.
After many years, the only thing people knew about the matter was that Tidomas betrayed the Dragon God and was tempted by the Evil Spirit Sea, becoming an Evil Spirit Overlord.
And no one knew that the Evil Spirit Overlord was Hartson himself!
With the help of the Evil Spirits’ power, he found another way to keep on living.
Moreover, he was unwilling to accept his situation and still wanted to enter Feinan.
This mysterious Prime Material Plane was not only vast and fertile, but it was also hiding the secret of the Universe’s upper limit of power.
Thus, it attracted the attention of various planes.
In short, Hartson didn’t give up on invading Feinan.
Diggles was something he was proud of.
He bewitched Diggles into being active in Feinan while being the mastermind in the back, influencing him while staying low-key, and continued remaining careful after Diggles was defeated.
This was what happened until the news of the Wizard God’s fall.
The Great Calamity was set in motion, making Hartson more and more restless.
Taking advantage of the Gods attacking the Universe Magic Pool, he put his plan in motion.
Drawn by his temptation, the Chromatic Dragons gathered and finally opened the Nightmare Boundary.
Green Dragon Modana and the others didn’t know that Hartson himself couldn’t take the initiative to open the Nightmare Boundary. This was his oath to Lance.
But it would be a different matter if others opened it.
The Nightmare Boundary was a whole new world. In Hartson’s eyes, it was the perfect springboard.
Through this world, the Evil Dragon Cemetery’s Evil Spirits could directly march on Feinan!
This was a rare way to bypass the Universe Magic Pool, but was very effective.
He could arrive before the Gods and sink the place into corruption.
The prerequisite was that he had to open this entrance’s seal and regain his Crystal Statue.
That so-called prophecy was correct. Whoever held the Crystal Statue could control the Chromatic Dragons.
This was because it contained a part of Dragon God Hartson’s Divine Source before he became a corrupted Evil Dragon Overlord.
This part was now extremely important to Harston.
But like the opening of the Nightmare Boundary, he couldn’t open the seal himself and could only urge the Chromatic Dragons to do everything for him.
Green Dragon Modana’s struggle was weakening the power of the seal while she was pulled toward the Negative Energy Plane.
“This isn’t good!”
The Fairy saw the situation behind the door and was quite upset. “If it continues, she will be corrupted completely.”
“Afterwards, she will be able to take the Crystal Statue and Hartson will have it his way. I can’t let that happen!”
It rushed to the seal and took the Crystal Statue!
“Hey! Human!”
As it held the Crystal Statue, the Fairy looked worriedly at Marvin. “Can I trust you?
Marvin shrugged. “That depends on what you are planning.”
The Fairy sized up Marvin before abruptly remarking, “You definitely didn’t come to the Nightmare Boundary without an aim. You want some benefits?”
Marvin didn’t know how to answer.
He originally came to the Nightmare Boundary in order to try his luck while conveniently doing a favor for Professor. He didn’t have too much of a goal there.
But before he could say anything, the Fairy resolutely declared, “As long as you accept a condition, I’ll give you this Crystal Statue.”
“I can sense a False Divine Vessel on you… But its level is too low.”
“If you agree, I’ll give you a better one, and… I’ll tell you how to break through your strength’s bottleneck. But if you plan on ascending to Godhood, I won’t be able to help you too much.”
