CHAPTER 442: CHAPTER 363: TIME ELDER SADIN

...

Three months later.

A Life Planet enshrouded by the Ruined Mist in the Ursa Major has reached 132, the five at the very center under the double envelopment of the Space-Time Illusion Realm.

To reach the source directly, one must traverse through the external Ruined Mist.

The count of infected Transcendent creatures is immeasurable.

As time progresses, the losses caused by the Ruined Calamity become more severe and increasingly difficult to resolve.

The resolution passed by the Truth Council takes another three months to officially implement.

And that day is today.

In the past space-time.

Ghost Light 11th Planet.

In these three months, Lin Suo has gone over all the terrains within the ripple range and has not found any particularly powerful wild Transcendents.

However, he has discovered a fair number of successfully merged Ruined derivatives.

Essentially, these successfully merged beasts are the same as Theresa.

After the condensation of the Legendary Domain.

Rigardaga has had some insights into the control of the Power of Ruin, able to effectively unleash her Talent, but still powerless in controlling such a colossal force of Ruin.

She can only summon these successful individuals.

Those who have succeeded and those who have failed are two entirely different concepts; failures have nothing, devoid of rationality, while the successful ones can preserve their self, possessing their original personality.

Only their disposition has slightly changed.

Similarly, as the source of the Power of Ruin, these secondary derivative fusion entities born from the Power of Ruin naturally exhibit strong submissiveness towards Rigardaga.

And unlike Elves with high-level intelligence like Theresa, Transcendent beasts only possess intermediate intelligence, giving Rigardaga the chance to forcibly control them by exerting her power.

The source always holds the advantageous position.

These are the elite individuals of the Ruined Legion; the failures are like the common skeleton soldiers of the Undead Sea.

Awakening from meditation.

Ever since Rigardaga broke through to Legendary, she has been staying with Elena, Jon, Niff, and others on the meteor set outside by Lin Suo; this place is temporarily immune to the effects of the Ruined Mist.

Over the past three months.

Lin Suo, tailoring to each individual, drew upon extraordinary knowledge from the database and merged capabilities to create a special Meditation Method specifically to instruct Rigardaga in controlling her power.

"Weaver Meditation Method"

"How is it going?"

"There’s some progress, but not significant. On the contrary, it’s when refining the magic threads that the strength improves quickly."

Lin Suo nodded thoughtfully.

"Circumstances dictate, meditating here for a few days is equivalent to a year outside, if you can stay for the full suspended time, maybe when you leave, you’ll be nearing Holy Spirit Level."

"Holy Spirit?..."

A look of yearning appeared in Rigardaga’s purple pupils; reaching Holy Spirit Level could be said to be one of her lifelong aspirations.

"What should I do, Mentor?"

Habitually, Rigardaga still preferred to call Lin Suo Mentor, a practice influenced by their time at the Golden Academy.

"Do not become a slave to power, gaze at it, conquer it, control it!"

"Talent will ultimately fall into the palm of your hand."

"The power of the mind is not to be underestimated."

"I understand, I’ll give it a try right now."

""""

In the midst of their exchange of teachings, just outside of the Ruined Mist that covered one-fifth of Ursa Major.

A group of people rushed over from the distant Red Empire, with an air of urgency and sighs on their faces.

Among them, a female Bronze Dragon transformed into a human form with eyes red with sorrow, spoke in a grieving tone.

"I can sense Narcissus’s presence."

Clearly, she was the Bronze Dragon King’s spouse—the Dragon Queen Masha.

Besides her, the White Silver Wings·Anglimado, who was in charge of guarding the Forbidden Magic Tower, also came along. This figure, a Six Trace Holy Spirit, was in the midst of rebuilding the Desolate Star Forbidden Magic Tower after its destruction.

This Holy Spirit Dragon Wizard also came to assist Masha in dealing with the time anomaly.

The last person was the Time Elder Sardin.

As an elder from the same era as the Fire Transmitter, his insight and knowledge reserve were among the forefront in the Wizard World, authentic and genuine.

Because he refrains from regular combat due to Time Prohibition Technique, he avoids using the Power of Time too much, to prevent a situation like the one in Ursa Major from occurring.

While his practical experience with it is rare, it certainly isn’t for nothing.

After living for so many years, just his theoretical experience is enough to overwhelmingly surpass Lin Suo’s understanding of time.

Therefore, just arriving outside of the Ruined Mist and combined with information obtained from the Truth Council, he almost immediately concluded the nature of the problem.

Firstly, the problem with the Ruined Mist.

The Time Elder Sardin’s eyes faintly whitened, as if he could see the past events that occurred here.

"Anglimado, Masha, this mist contains a mutated form of the Power of Time, it seems to have integrated with the Element of Time at the time anomaly..."

"Sardin the elder, we will follow your commands."

Even though Anglimado is a prideful Silver Dragon, he still holds reverence for beings stronger than himself.

With the Time Elder Sardin in charge of this operation, if he couldn’t address the issue, then the Supreme Council’s group -- who don’t study time and are at the Holy Spirit Peak -- would be even less capable.

Under the assistance of the Bronze Dragon Queen and Anglimado, this would be the last opportunity to address it.

If unsuccessful, it would proceed to the Truth Council’s final handling measures.

The Truth Circle would deliver an apocalyptic strike to Ursa Major.

With a destructive attack, it would entirely annihilate this star system, to deal with the series of issues that the time anomaly might cause.

Wizards rarely utilize the Truth Circle, this epic weapon, unless absolutely necessary.

"Let’s go, I will use my Time abilities to temporarily shield you from the influence of this grey-green mist."

Masha and Anglimado, along with Sardin, will head to resolve the issue, while the rest and the transport starship stay outside of the mist and wait.

"Let’s move."

The three looked at each other, with White Silver Wings·Anglimado transforming into a Silver Dragon approximately the size of a planet, Sardin and Masha then positioned on the dragon scales atop the dragon’s head.

Wrapped in the Time Magic, they plunged into the Ruined Mist.

Following the guidance of the Time Elder Sardin.

They charged directly towards the Meteor where Lin Suo and the others were, within the Ruined Mist. As they passed, the mist automatically parted, and a succession of Ruined derivatives, resembling the Undead with decaying bodies transformed by this power.

As if they feared death no longer, they even gained the ability to move freely in the universe—these monsters spontaneously converged to form wandering hordes within the mist.

Anglimado slightly lifted his dragon head.

A Silver Dragon Breath that could pierce through the starry sky, almost able to burn through anything, was easily powerful enough to clear the path.

The Ruined derivatives stood no chance against this Holy Spirit Dragon Wizard.

Thus, the trio proceeded rapidly.

In just a short three days’ time, through continuous acceleration and Space Jump, they directly reached the source, the core of the Ruined Mist within the Time Illusion.

The group stopped before stepping into the space-time ripples.

"We’ve arrived."
