Chapter 2801: Chapter 572: The Laws of Spiritual Treasure, Nightmare’s Fate!
"Senior, is there something you need?"
With a legendary visit, Levi came to greet him.
"I’ve seen your research results, very impressive. It reminds me of those years inside the body of the Lost Monarch," Daydreamer said with a smile.
Levi asked, "Senior, is this path correct for me?"
"No problem, this is a spell sequence that leads straight to legendary. You must seize it and never give up. Once you become legendary, you can use this as a foundation to study a tenth-circle spell potent enough to counter the Lost Monarch. Our School of Dreams is playing a game with it, and we might still need your help," Daydreamer highly praised.
"Alright, I have it clear in my mind now."
Taking this opportunity, Levi sought advice from the Legendary Wizard, and the two collaborated to make some improvements to this spell sequence.
...
Nightmare World.
Lost Domain.
On the silent throne, the Lost King awoke from a slumber. A graceful figure approached with a smile; it was the Devouring Sky Demon Lord.
"What do you want from me?"
"I want to collaborate with you."
"There’s nothing for us to collaborate on, is there?"
"What do you think of Nora’s rise?"
"No opinion, it doesn’t concern me, nor can it affect me."
"I heard that a wizard recently escaped from your maze and even became a legend. Do you think he won’t seek revenge in the future?"
"So what if he does? Ever since I came into being, countless gods have sought revenge against me, and they’ve all ended up as nourishment for my expanding maze. I would be happy for more to come."
"You’re still basking in past glories, Rostrevor sir, wake up, open your eyes and look... Times have changed. Nora defeated three waves of demon assaults and has even extended part of its tentacles into the Nightmare World."
"Are you referring to the Black Dragon Territory on the frontier?"
"Yes."
"It can be wiped out in the blink of an eye."
"And then what? Those wizards’ true forms are in Nora, merely descending into the Nightmare World using the projection power of the Black Dragon Lord. Even if you kill them, they can be resurrected. Acting ahead of time might alert Nora, making them wary."
"What do you want to say?"
"Your influence and prestige exceed mine. We should unite and lead more Nightmare Monarchs... to a crusade against Nora!"
"Uniting with the Abyss?"
"Certainly not; we just need to sit back and reap the benefits while the Abyss and Nora are at odds.
Don’t forget, we’ve already obtained most of the dark side fragments of the universe, including Nora’s. Entering Nora is even more convenient for us than for the Abyss. We can also transport an army through the existing spatial nodes."
Upon hearing the words of the Devouring Sky Demon Lord, the Lost Monarch seemed moved. It pondered for a moment and then said, "Let me think about it and get back to you."
"Alright, I’ll go contact the monarchs of nearby large domains first. Don’t fall asleep again; otherwise, by the time you wake up, either the Abyss has taken Nora, or Nora has... become the new giant."
With a light laugh, the figure of the Devouring Sky Demon Lord dissipated.
...
A month later.
Nora Dark Side.
Windmill Village.
Owens, who advanced to the eighth rank of the Gray Swordsman, hunted the Fallen Objects that filled the Ashen World alone. This life had continued for thousands of years. However, his eyes now shone with more hope than in the past.
"Owens, how have you been lately?"
Levi came to visit his old friend with a large bundle of Nightmare Crystals.
"Good, though the monsters keep increasing... By the way, are you about to reach level 10, Levi?" Owens wiped his sweat.
"Still a bit short."
"That’s great, when we first met, we were neck and neck, but now... no need to mention it," Owens said, sitting on the ground, with his longsword stabbed into the ground beside him.
Levi caught up with him for a while, and before leaving, he urged:
"Owens, notify me immediately if anything happens here."
"Alright."
Returning to the Ancient Dragon Continent, Levi looked concerned. During this period, he felt uneasy, sensing that something big was about to happen.
Through the [Deep Red Eyes], he noticed that another presence of hostility at level 10 appeared on the central screen, its figure indistinct, but the red and black sky in the background indicated it was from the Nightmare World. Levi paid particular attention and checked all places related to the Nightmare World.
"Could it be that those Nightmare Overlords I hunted were discovered by their monarchs behind them?" He murmured.
If that’s the case, that blurry figure is highly likely to be the Devouring Sky Demon Lord. Among the monarchs he had offended, its power was the greatest, possibly at the late stage of level 10.
If the other side already knew it was him, why hadn’t they launched an attack against the Black Dragon Territory yet? Levi couldn’t figure it out. However, he still informed Daydreamer about it to give the formidable figure a mental preparation.
Daydreamer told Levi not to worry and quoted the Copycat Sauron’s saying, "Blessings aren’t disasters, disasters cannot be avoided."
With the reassurance of the Legendary Wizard, Levi continued his cultivation as usual, only ensuring that the Black Dragon Territory was prepared for combat at any moment. Levi prepared for the worst—the loss of the Black Dragon Territory and starting anew. With his current strength, relocating to develop elsewhere remained feasible.
...
A year later.
Nora Calendar 1593.
Despair Domain.
The Despair Sovereign watched the receding figure of the Devouring Sky Demon Lord, relieved, as it wound around the Sky Dome, its eyes rotating as it pondered.
It thought the Devouring Sky Demon Lord had discovered its past oppression of the Horror Dominator, but the other had approached for a more shocking matter.
The Devouring Sky Demon Lord and numerous Nightmare Monarchs planned to invade Nora to seize the gains from the Abyss and Nora Blood Battle. The scale of this war was only second to the previous Nightmare World invasion of the Shadow to plunder the Universe’s Dark Side.
Moreover, the Devouring Sky Demon Lord discovered that the previous disappearance of the Nightmare Overlords was the Black Dragon Lord’s doing and planned to use this as a justified pretext.
Of course, given Nightmare World’s status, whether it had a pretext or not didn’t matter... the Black Dragon Lord simply stumbled upon the gun barrel.
"What to do, what to do? Should I participate?"
Deeply understanding the way of survival, the Despair Sovereign naturally didn’t want to participate, but as an emerging king, if it didn’t conform, it feared being isolated or even targeted.
When in doubt, simulate once!
"Snake of the End" simulator! Initiate!
It took a deep breath, bit its own tail, blood flowed, its serpentine body forming a complete mysterious circle of destiny.
Two years later.
After ten thousand simulations, the Despair Sovereign looked pale, having nearly exhausted all its strength. Staring towards the Black Dragon Territory, its eyes appeared shocked, blood trickled from its mouth, as it murmured:
"How can this be, could I have calculated wrong?"
