The Wizard: From Zero-Ring Wizard to Almighty Lord.

After leaving the Natural Merchant Pavilion, the same four rainbow unicorns pulled the magnificent carriage, flapping their wings and taking off into the air.

Accompanied by the flowing rainbow light, the chariot transformed into a dazzling streak of light, speeding straight towards the deepest part of the city of abundance.

Although the unique urban design of the City of Abundance and its highly open and free order had already given Lynn quite a surprise yesterday.

However, there were not many unexpected things on this trip to the Eastern Branch of the Wizarding Council.

The Eastern Branch of the Wizarding Council is undoubtedly located at the heart of the entire City of Abundance.

This applies both on the ground and high in the air.

That makes perfect sense.

As the central hub of the entire bountiful city, it naturally has no need for any ingenious designs.

The more central the location, the more it strives for solemnity, grandeur, and purity.

Unlike the ancient tree in the Natural Pavilion that connects heaven and earth.

The Wizard Council was still divided into two major areas: the ground and the sky.

Although the two are interconnected by numerous teleportation arrays, floating staircases, and spatial passages.

However, Lynn and his group had made an appointment in advance yesterday, so they did not need to land and could simply drive their vehicles to fly towards the high-altitude area.

A streak of rainbow light pierced the sky.

After a short flight, the carriage of the Natural Merchant Pavilion finally arrived at the outer perimeter of the Eastern Branch of the Wizard Council.

Below, there are magnificent palaces and pavilions, stretching endlessly and standing side by side.

High above, there are floating islands that are separate from each other.

The islands are connected by thick, white cloud bridges. These clouds seem to have solidified, wide and flat enough for a wizard to walk through them.

Each of the floating islands is adorned with buildings of a distinct style.

The island's perimeter is shrouded in layers of arrays, and patrolling wizards constantly go back and forth to inspect the area.

Obviously.

No matter how open and free the City of Abundance may be, the Wizard Council, as the most central area of ​​the entire city, still has an extremely tight defense system.

However, Natural Pavilion had already completed reservations yesterday.

Therefore, when the four rainbow unicorns dragged the chariot to the outside of the formation.

The invisible light barrier in front of them slowly cracked open, making way for a wide passage.

At the same time, several members of the patrolling wizard team immediately flew over on streaks of light to lead the way for the carriage.

The entire process was incredibly smooth, without any questioning or unnecessary communication, as if it had all been part of a perfectly established and mature procedure.

Seeing this, Lynn nodded inwardly.

This shows that it is commonplace in the Eastern Region for large forces like the Natural God Dynasty to visit the Wizard Council.

The entire Eastern Region Wizard Council is far more mature than imagined, both in terms of its management system and its efficiency.

However, what truly caught Lynn's eye was not these magnificent buildings.

Rather, it is the sky above.

As the chariot passed through the outer array, it continued flying towards the agreed location.

Lynn's gaze also turned to the horizon.

There, one after another, rainbow-colored bridges spanning the heavens and the earth float between the sky, intersecting with each other and reaching into the endless void.

That scene was quite similar to that of the mountain city where the Southern Wizarding Council branch was located.

Those rainbow-colored bridges also connect to the outside world, linking one different civilization, plane, and heaven after another.

However, the scale of the two is completely incomparable.

Although there are quite a few rainbow-colored bridges in this mountain city, they can still be counted on one hand.

And here in the Eastern Region... as far as the eye can see, there are layers upon layers, one after another.

Countless rainbow-colored bridges hang between heaven and earth, densely packed, stretching to the horizon as if without end.

This scene alone is enough to illustrate the point.

The exchanges, trade, and interactions between the Eastern Region and various civilizations outside the region far surpassed those of the Southern Region.

"Indeed, people still need to go out and see the world..."

"The Southern Region is far more barren than the Eastern Region."

Lynn couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.

Meanwhile, Kita-tori remained seated there with an air of composure.

With her legs together, her hands gently resting on her fair knees, her eyes slightly closed, she quietly rested, never uttering a word from beginning to end.

Apart from the two lords, there were only a few wizards accompanying them in the entire carriage.

As for the Morning Star Wizards of the Natural Merchant Pavilion, they had already been performing their respective duties.

After welcoming the two lords yesterday, they returned to their posts and naturally could not accompany them all the way to the Eastern Region Council to report on the battle situation.

………………

As the rainbow light gradually faded.

The carriage of the Natural Merchant Pavilion finally landed smoothly at the pre-arranged location.

This is one of the many floating islands of the Eastern Region Council. It is not located in the center, but rather on the outer edge.

However, just as Lord Lynn and Lord Northbird stepped down from their carriage and passed through the protective array that enveloped the entire island...

Lynn's steps faltered slightly.

"This is... the world rules of the Celestial Realm?"

The moment he stepped inside, he sensed the familiar yet unfamiliar aura of rules surrounding him.

Lynn was naturally familiar with this.

Back when he was still in the mechanical capital of the Nightmare Rift Valley in the Southern Region, he disguised himself as a mechanical wizard and specifically studied and comprehended the rule system of the Kingdom's Heaven.

He especially remembered the unique world structure of that civilization.

The outermost layer is an outer world barrier, like an eggshell, that envelops the entire kingdom's heavens.

Further in, there lies the endless phlogiston sea, which replaces the ordinary vacuum of the universe.

That burning ocean was both the source of power for the civilization of the gods and a buffer zone between countless worlds.

Within the Burning Sea, worlds and planes, each encased in a crystal wall, float.

The crystal wall isolated the phlogiston sea from its erosion and protected the civilization within, enabling it to continue and survive under the rule of the gods.

Whenever a civilization of gods discovers a world suitable for incorporating into its own system.

They would then use unknown and mighty divine power to transform the entire world.

They were forged into crystal walls, incorporated into the celestial realm, and ultimately became part of that vast divine kingdom system.

This is the core order of the civilization of gods.

Beyond the shell lies endless void.

Inside the shell lies a sea of ​​phlogiston burning fiercely.

Within the Sea of ​​Phosphorus are worlds protected by crystal walls.

There, the gods are the sole and supreme rulers.

Of course, this is just a manifestation of the Kingdom of the Universe in the global framework.

From the perspective of extraordinary systems and the origin of rules, the division of rules in the realm of the heavens presents a completely different picture.

The entire civilization of gods is divided into five planes.

From the inside out, they are: the inner plane, the etheric plane, the material plane, the outer plane, and the astral plane.

The inner plane is where all elements converge and where countless powers are born.

The Ether plane is a dimension shrouded in mystery, connecting one plane and world after another, like the central hub of the entire celestial realm.

The material plane is the closest to the real world of the wizarding world, and is the place where countless living beings thrive.

The outer plane is where extraordinary divine power converges, eventually evolving into a mysterious space between reality and illusion, hence it is also known as the plane where gods reside.

As for the outermost astral plane...

There was a vast, boundless silver ocean, with gray-white bands of light crisscrossing it, as if countless stars were floating and turning within it.

In the understanding of the civilization of gods, the astral plane is the outermost boundary of the entire world system and the gateway to the endless sea of ​​worlds.

The former refers to the world structure.

The latter, however, refers to extraordinary rules.

Lynn already knew this knowledge when he was a formal wizard and disguised himself as a mechanical wizard in the Mechanical City.

He continued his cultivation journey, growing from a formal wizard to the Morning Star Wizard he is today. He also took charge of the Western Forest Domain and clashed with various divine civilizations several times. Naturally, he was already quite familiar with the system of the Kingdom of Heaven.

However, that is precisely why.

As Lynn stepped into this celestial palace, the shock he felt only intensified. The array covering the entire island was a clear simulation of a portion of the rules and regulations of the celestial realm!
To be precise, in terms of world architecture, macroscopic structures such as the Polynite Sea, the Void Sea, and the Crystal Wall have not actually evolved.

But regarding the extraordinary system.

The regular fluctuations of the inner plane, the etheric plane, the material plane, the outer plane, and the astral plane were almost completely simulated.

While such a move isn't exactly astonishing, it's something that even the mechanical capital could accomplish.

But the current environment, being the core area of ​​the Eastern Wizarding Council, made Lynn feel somewhat dazed.

Just as Lynn was slightly lost in thought, Miss North Bird, who had come in with her, suddenly spoke softly.

She squinted slightly, a look of utter bliss on her fair face, and murmured softly:

"Lord Lynn, doesn't it feel especially comfortable here?"

"It's like... going back to infancy, nestled in your mother's arms."

"It's been so long since I've been immersed in this kind of structured environment..."

"Ok?"

Lynn was taken aback upon hearing this.

At first he was a little confused, but the next moment, he seemed to realize something and his mind stirred.

A figure clad in a long blue robe slowly separated from his body; it was none other than the Lord of Life.

Almost the instant the Lord of Life detached from his physical form and came into contact with the surrounding rules.

An unprecedented sense of warmth and intimacy suddenly flowed into Lynn's consciousness through their soul connection.

That feeling... was just as Kita-no-Tori had described.

It felt like returning to the very beginning of life, like being in a mother's arms—warm, peaceful, and filled with an indescribable sense of security.

"This place... is the rule environment of the Kingdom of Heaven."

"The Lord of Life has ascended to the divine position. It is only natural that he would feel a sense of familiarity, like a fish in water or a bird returning to its forest, upon returning to this environment."

"But……"

"Why would the Lord of the Northern Birds feel this way?"

"Isn't she an orthodox wizard from the Dawnstar Extremities?!"

Thoughts raced through Lynn's mind.

The fact that Bei Niao had noticed the island's special characteristics even earlier than he had shocked him even more than the fact that the Eastern Wizarding Council had specifically built such an island.

Immediately afterwards, scenes from the wars outside the region also came to mind.

The civilization of the gods had been plotting for a long time, setting up numerous traps.

In the end, only the Lord of the Northern Birds managed to preserve the Radiant Moon Relic, forged from divine essence, almost unscathed.

In addition, even Lynn, who temporarily ascended to godhood, made the Spirit of the Azure Sky pay a considerable price.

As for the other two lords, they almost completely destroyed the Radiant Moon Relic, suffering heavy losses.

At the time, Lynn only felt that North Bird was strong enough.

Now it seems... it's not that simple.

"I've known all along that the Lord of the Northern Birds is mysterious and unpredictable..."

"But what exactly is her background?"

At this moment, Lynn's vigilance had reached its peak.

………………

Meanwhile, North Bird, immersed in this rule-based environment, was completely unaware of Lynn's thoughts.

She kept her eyes slightly closed.

Her fair, round face radiated a genuine happiness, as if she were in the warmest and most secure place in the world.

After a moment, Lynn gently spoke up to remind him:
"Lord of the Northern Birds".

“We’ve been waiting at the door for quite a while now; the wizards inside must be getting impatient.”

"Well……"

Bei Niao responded softly.

There was a hint of reluctance in her voice.

She slowly opened her eyes, and in those bright, star-like eyes, there was still a hint of lingering enjoyment.

Then, the two lords began to walk deeper into the island.

As they traveled, North Bird casually introduced the island to Lynn.

"This place is called God-Slaying Island."

"As the name suggests, it is a place specifically established to study and target the civilization of gods."

She raised her slender, fair finger and pointed into the distance.

"That shell-shaped building is the experimental area for studying phlogiston."

"That tall tower is mainly used for the study of crystal wall systems."

"Further inside, there are places specifically for studying divinity, divine arts, and various dimensional rules..."

As Bei Niao explained, he walked forward with practiced ease.

Her demeanor suggested that this wasn't her first time here, but rather that she was already intimately familiar with everything about the place.

However, the more this was the case, the deeper Lynn's doubts became.

Why does she know so much about the civilization of gods?

Why can it blend so naturally into the rules and environment of this nation's heavens?

Even more so... the comfort and intimacy she exuded when she was immersed in it was more natural than that of the Lord of Life, a true deity.

It should be noted that Lynn's physical body did not experience any comfort whatsoever.

If there were not a connection between the Lord of Life and his original body, which used divine rules to offset some of the rejection from the rules of the kingdom and the heavens, he should only feel oppressed and uncomfortable at this moment.

But Kita was different; everything she showed was too natural.

So natural... as if she belonged to this world.

Miss North Bird, after all, is a lord of a natural divine dynasty, a level six Morning Star Wizard who has stepped into the Morning Star Realm.

Her identity is recognized by all the Radiant Moon Lords of the Natural God Dynasty, and there is no way it could be false.

If that's the case... then why does she show such closeness, even attachment, to the rules of the Kingdom of Heaven?

Lynn pondered for a long time, but still couldn't find an answer.

In the end, he could only suppress his various speculations for the time being and follow Kita-tori toward a tall building at the deepest part of the island.

According to Bei Niao, that place holds the most complete information about the civilization of the gods, and it is also the place where the report on the extraterritorial war was given.

………………

The two lords walked side by side.

Behind Lynn, a figure draped in a blue robe followed quietly.

It is the Lord of Life.

Being in this environment that simulates the rules of the celestial realm, the Lord of Life clearly benefited greatly, constantly immersed in the comfortable fluctuations of those rules.

Therefore, Lynn did not take it into his body, but let it follow behind him.

As the distance closed, just as everyone was about to step into the tall building...

Lynn's gaze suddenly sharpened, his mental energy detecting an extremely cold aura first.

That wasn't directed at him, nor at Kita-no-Tori.

Instead... it directly targeted the Lord of Life!

Almost at the same time that they sensed that hostility.

boom!
Between heaven and earth, one terrifying power after another suddenly appeared.

There was no warning whatsoever.

Several distinct rules and formations simultaneously awakened, carrying the power to suppress all heresy, and crashed down upon the Lord of Life!

The change happened so fast that Lynn didn't even have time to react.

With his level 5 Morning Star Wizard cultivation, he could only sense what was happening, but he had no time to stop it.

However, Bei Niao, with her Morning Star Realm strength, was naturally able to react quickly enough.

But she simply watched the scene calmly, without making any attempt to stop it.

Seeing this, Lynn, who was originally preparing to activate the power of the Azure Sky Spirit, had a slight glint in his eyes and then suppressed the thought of making a move.

Since Kita no Tori did not stop it, it means that what is happening now may not be an enemy attack.

In that case... let's see what this God-Slaying Island is up to first. (End of Chapter)
