Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 211 The Corrupted Kingdom

After returning to the Wizard Tower, Ronan resumed his fulfilling days of training day and night.

Despite practicing day and night, I did not feel tired.

He hadn't left the wizard's tower for many days and knew nothing about the outside world.

Of course, major events are an exception.

Recently, a major event occurred.

So when Lyon heard this, he told Ronan:
"A message came back from the merchants traveling between the continents: the entire Holy Radiance Continent was shrouded in a thick fog, and all the merchants who went to the Kingdom of Loden never returned."

The Kingdom of Loden was the one that had previously sought an alliance with "Dolifa" to fight against the Wizard Islands' attempt to absorb new blood.

Upon hearing this, Ronan instructed Lyon to go and gather more information.

He wondered what had happened in this kingdom.

Dolifa's collection of books contains records of many strange phenomena.

The thick fog also corresponds to a variety of strange phenomena.

Many magical creatures can create thick fog.

'Could it be that extremely powerful magical beasts, or even a beast tide, have invaded the Holy Radiance Continent?'

Ronan thought to himself.

In Dolifa's collection of books, he read about powerful herds of beasts in the sea that would invade the continent.

Sometimes, the beast hordes are so powerful that they can wipe out almost the entire population of an entire continent.

'Perhaps we should have the wizards of the Wizarding Council strengthen their defenses.'

Thinking of this, Ronan summoned the wizards from the Wizarding Council.

After giving a few words of advice, the wizards of the Wizard Council left.

Then, several wizards set off from the Wizard Council and headed towards the northern shore of the Dawn Continent.

Because the north is the direction of the Holy Radiance Continent.

Although the Dawn Continent is not the closest continent to the Holy Radiance Continent.

However, if there is a beast tide or something similar, after destroying another continent, it will eventually reach the Dawn Continent.

The wizards of the Wizarding Council used speed-enhancing magic to fly through the sky.

After spending most of the day, we finally arrived at the northernmost part of the Dawn Continent.

There, the wizards of the northern provinces and the wizard council branch were stationed.

Along the shore, there are tall towers, and on the top of each tower is a green stone with a spell pattern carved inside.

Each tower, when connected, forms a magical array.

If any other wizards come ashore, this magic array will sense it.

These towers were built to prevent wizards from the Wizarding Islands from coming ashore at will.

Now, we may have to defend against the unknown entity that has shrouded the Holy Radiance Continent in thick fog.

The wizards from the Wizard Council came to reinforce this defense.

With the arrival of the wizards from the Wizard Council headquarters, the knowledge of strengthening defensive magic arrays was also brought along.

The wizards here were divided into several groups, each group casting spells on a defensive wizard tower.

They stood beneath the tower, hands raised high, chanting incantations.

The nearby energy particles converged toward the emerald at the top of the tower.

Streaks of green light, like flowing water, converged towards the emerald.

Then, the green glow emitted by the emerald became even more intense.

This witchcraft formation gradually became more and more powerful.

Three days later, they finally managed to reinforce the defensive magic array.

Just as those wizards from the Wizard Council were about to leave.

Suddenly, a strange phenomenon was heard from the sea.

The wizards turned their heads and saw two strange, upright creatures suddenly emerge from the sea and land on the beach.

This upright creature had a fish head and a human body, was entirely dark green, and had skin that looked sticky.

Occasionally, it would open its mouth, revealing sharp teeth and a long, scarlet tongue.

"What kind of monster is this?"

As the wizards were still reeling, the two monsters rushed up at them.

However, they ran into the barrier of the witch's formation.

The barrier generated a magical force that repelled them.

Meanwhile, the wizards on the other side of the barrier took out their staffs, aimed them at the two monsters, and cast spells.

Instantly, streams of flames, lightning, frost, and blades formed a magical flow that blasted towards the two monsters.

These two monsters don't seem to know any witchcraft.

However, they possess extremely strong physical bodies, and their dodging speed is incredibly fast.

They managed to dodge the wizard's first wave of attacks.

But after witnessing their ability to evade, the wizards were much smarter in their second attack.

When they cast spells, they infused them with spiritual power.

In this way, the magic they unleash has a certain tracking function.

Moreover, they can predict the actions of the two monsters before casting their spells.

Immediately afterwards, the wizards chased after the monster and unleashed a second wave of attacks.

This time, several wizards struck the monster.

The monster let out a series of screams, and dark green blood spurted from its wounds.

After the wizards launched their fourth attack, both monsters were completely dead.

One of the wizards from the wizarding council immediately used witchcraft to clean up the corpses of the two monsters.

Then, from the storage artifact, he took out two copper boxes that looked like coffins.

Place the corpses of the two monsters inside.

He has to take it back to Lord Dolifa to see.

……

A day later, two objects resembling bronze coffins were brought up to Ronan's wizard tower.

In a laboratory, Ronan opened a bronze coffin and saw the monster inside.

'Deep Diver...'

The name of the monster came to mind in Ronan's mind.

He had seen books in Dolifa's collection that mentioned this monster.

This monster comes from a plane that wizards call the "Chaotic Plane".

Moreover, these monsters were merely servants of powerful beings in that plane.

Some wizards refer to them as "the favored ones".

'So, the Holy Radiance Continent has been invaded by other planes?'

Just as this thought crossed Ronan's mind, he suddenly sensed that wizards from the Wizarding Council were approaching.

Before long, the wizards of the Wizarding Council knelt outside the defensive barrier of the Wizarding Tower and addressed Ronan:

"Lord Dolifa, beyond the coast, there is a legendary wizard who claims to be from the Kingdom of Buri. He says he wants to discuss matters concerning the Holy Radiance Continent with you."

"Where is it?" Ronan asked.

The wizards of the Wizard Council then revealed the location.

He transformed into the form of "Dolifa," left the laboratory, jumped out of the wizard tower, cast a Wood-based magic escape spell, and headed towards the coast.

……

As they approached, Ronan sensed a powerful energy fluctuation ahead.

That energy fluctuation undoubtedly belonged to a legendary wizard.

Upon reaching the shore, they saw an old wizard with blond hair, dressed in a beige robe, standing in the void beyond the barrier. "Hello, Professor Dolifa, I am Markov Friedman," the old wizard waved to Ronan.

Ronan had read about the Kingdom of Buri in Dolifa's library.

It says that Markov Friedman was a legendary wizard who was also passionate about teaching.

Ronan nodded and greeted him in return.

Markov said, "Professor Dolifa, I wonder if you have heard about the Holy Radiance Continent?"

Ronan nodded.

Markov then continued, "The Holy Radiance Continent has now been invaded by another dimension, and almost all the wizards there have been corrupted."

"Some organisms spilled off the continent and affected other surrounding continents."

"Now, we, the several first-level continents, plan to join forces to eliminate all these extradimensional creatures so as not to affect our various continents."

Ronan thought for a moment and then agreed, as it was indeed closely related to his interests.

However, he thought about things that would happen later.

If almost all the wizards and humans on the Holy Radiance Continent were destroyed by creatures from another dimension.

So, if the extradimensional creatures are removed, then this continent will be an almost uninhabited empty continent.

It's just unknown whether the invasion from another dimension will corrupt the cultivation resources of this continent as well.

If the cultivation resources do not become corrupted, once they eliminate the extradimensional creatures from this continent...

They would then begin to fight for or divide up this continent.

Money can be a powerful motivator. Even if he didn't intend to make a move, other wizards would eventually.

"Then it's settled. See you in five days."

Markov gave Ronan the coordinates of a small island.

They gathered on this small island and then went together to slaughter extradimensional creatures.

……

After Ronan returned to the Kingdom of Valant, he immediately went to the Wizarding Council.

Thirty elite wizards, ten true wizards, and two great wizards were selected as the people to accompany him on this journey.

Have the wizards of the Wizard Council send messengers to each province throughout the kingdom.

A day later, all the wizards had gathered.

Then, they used the teleportation array together, and after several teleportations, they arrived at the North Shore.

Then, they took a boat out to sea.

This is a medium-sized ship built by a wizard from the Wizard Council who is skilled in shipbuilding.

It is engraved with multiple magical formations that can utilize the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth and convert it into power.

To increase its speed further, you need to input magic power into it, or put in magic stones.

Ronan and the other wizards stood on the deck, facing the sea breeze, their wizard robes fluttering in the wind.

The medium-sized ship broke through the waves and arrived at the island agreed upon with Markov in about half a day.

Upon arriving at the island, Ronan sensed the presence of other people there, realizing that a legendary wizard from another continent had brought his people to the island.

Ronan then led his wizards over.

Upon reaching a grove of trees near the island's beach, one would see rows of tents.

Those were places where wizards would rest.

Ronan and his group also had them.

The elite wizards who were following Ronan immediately took out tents and began chanting spells.

The tent emitted a magical glow, and when they tossed it, it automatically rose into the air before landing on the ground.

These tents all have spatial magic formations.

It doesn't look big from the outside, but once you go inside, it's a completely different space.

Ronan entered his tent, which contained a green space the size of a football field.

Ronan began to cultivate within it, waiting for the five-day period to arrive.

……

Soon, the five-day period was approaching, and the wizard's announcement came from outside.

The wizard said that it was Markov who wanted to see him.

Ronan then let Markov in, and after chatting for a while, they learned that there were a total of six first-level continents in this alliance.

They are all close to the Holy Radiance Continent.

One of the continents is facing an invasion by extradimensional creatures from the Holy Radiance Continent.

“Once we've killed all the extradimensional creatures, we can get resources from the legendary wizards of this continent,” Markov said in the chat.
"After all, without our intervention, this continent would probably be just like the Holy Radiance Continent."

Ronan nodded, thinking to himself that wizards were indeed all ruthless people.

Even Markov, the white wizard, was no exception.

When the five-day period was up, the legendary wizards gathered first.

In the forest, everyone sat on a rock and held a meeting.

The legendary wizards present, along with Ronan, who resembled Dorifa, were six old men.

They all had long beards and looked old and kind.

The legendary wizard, who had clashed with extradimensional beings several times, exchanged information with the group:

"These creatures are skilled in water magic and spiritual magic."

"Moreover, some wizards go mad after seeing them or hearing their voices, and their bodies undergo strange changes."

Ronan nodded to the wizards, all of whom had read about this alternate dimension in the books.

The legendary wizard continued, "However, I still don't know what the most powerful of these creatures is like."

"I don't know the specific situation of the Holy Radiance Continent, or whether the legendary wizard of the Kingdom of Loden is still alive or has been corrupted."

"If Yulan also dies, then this interdimensional invasion will be far too terrible."

After speaking for a while longer, the six legendary wizards gathered the other wizards and set off for the corrupted Holy Radiance Continent.

They each boarded their own ships and set sail towards the Holy Radiance Continent, cutting through the waves.

More than an hour later, they saw the thick fog covering the Holy Radiance Continent.

Amidst the thick fog, faint whispers could be heard.

"Be careful, stay focused, or don't listen to the delirium!"

A legendary wizard's way.

He was mainly speaking to some elite wizards.

Because these wizards are the weakest and most susceptible to the influence of delirium, they are corrupted into monsters and become part of the extradimensional creatures.

So the elite wizards used their own methods, such as casting spells, taking potions, or strengthening their mental defenses.

As the ship continued its journey, huge black shadows could be seen appearing and disappearing in the thick fog.

As you get closer, you can see that the creature is over nine meters tall, with an oval head that is bald and has no eyes, making you wonder if it is even a head at all.

Below its head were eight long, thin tentacles, hanging down like willow branches.

This monster was also entirely dark green, and its skin had a liquid that was unusually viscous.

It was a species that none of the wizards had ever seen before.

Suddenly, a monster moved, and a tentacle shot out from the thick fog, stabbing towards Ronan and the others.

One of the legendary wizards unleashed a high-level fire demon spell.

A hideous, flaming head hurtled toward the tentacles.

Soon, the tentacle was burned to ashes.

The monster retracted its severed tentacles, but no groan was heard.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding water began to churn.
