Chapter 499: The Excitement Caused by Didimoss!

“Hum hum hum.”

Merlin himself had not realized how fearsome his Mind Heart was once it was activated. It had unwittingly formed into a vortex which was still spinning manically, absorbing, and refining the spirits in the cave.

Moreover, the Mind Power in his Mind Heart was growing rapidly. Merlin’s Mind Heart, in comparison with Damsy, Fury, and Giado, was not inferior in terms of strength and was even slightly stronger.

At the very least, the stir that Merlin had caused was greater than the other three. The spirits “snatched” by Merlin’s Mind Heart was more than the other three combined. This meant that the three of them had added to Merlin’s Mind Power for no reason.

“How is this possible? This Wizard Merlin is clearly just a Fifth-level Spell Caster. How is his Mind Power so formidable?”

Fury shot Merlin an odd look, but he was not angry. Absorbing the spirits was based on one’s own ability. How much one could absorb was completely based on how strong one’s Mind Heart was.

Damsy thought about it for a moment before she said softly, “Wizard Merlin’s Mind Power must have condensed a Mind Heart, and a Special Mind Heart at that, not inferior to ours! It’s not surprising that he would want to learn Occult Mind Spell as he’s already condensed a Special Mind Heart.”

Merlin’s powerful force naturally prompted Damsy to guess correctly. All three of their Mind Hearts were Seventh-level but were still far from reaching the peak.

As for Merlin’s Mind Heart, it was nearly at the peak, with Mind Power that was comparable to most peak Eighth-level Spell Casters. This was the advantage of a Special Mind Heart. The amount of Mind Power it could hold was far greater than the average Spell Caster.

Just as Merlin was immersed in the thrill of feeling his Mind Power expanding, a black cat appeared on his shoulder. It was the black cat Didimoss.

A bright spark was revealed in the black eyes of the black cat Didimoss as it cried out, “Merlin, stop snatching. These spirits can help me transform into a true living form!”

Perhaps the black cat Didimoss spoke so loudly that Merlin was instantly “shocked” out of his reverie. Following that, he glanced at the black cat Didimoss and could sense his inner longing, so Merlin nodded. “Go ahead.”

“Whoosh.”

The black cat Didimoss was a blur as he crossed the space of the cave constantly. A few white sparks, which were the mysterious energy left behind by the spirit monsters, were immediately swallowed by Didimoss, whose body gradually became more distinct.

Damsy and the rest looked toward the black cat Didimoss curiously. At the moment, they had stopped consuming the white energy as well. The spirit energy had been swallowed by Merlin on the whole, and the amount that remained would not be of much help to them.

“A half-spirit? It’s actually a half-spirit. I didn’t expect that Wizard Merlin would have a half-spirit, and one which isn’t ordinary from the look of it!”

Damsy’s eyes brightened. At this moment, the black cat Didimoss was in a graceful posture, appearing very beautiful.

Merlin nodded and said, “I encountered him by pure chance. He’s called Didimoss.”

Merlin briefly introduced the black cat Didimoss, following which he turned his attention toward the black cat Didimoss. Didimoss was wildly swallowing the white sparks in the cave, and his body began to swell and enlarge. Initially, he was a half-spirit, still somewhat transparent, but now he seemed to gradually solidify.

“Meow!”

The black cat Didimoss meowed loudly just like a real cat. Following that, Didimoss spat out mysterious runes, which flew from his mouth and formed a large net. The net trapped all the white sparks in the cave, and swallowed everything.

“A Runic Magic Circle?”

“Wizard Merlin, your half-spirit is rather extraordinary to be able to cast a Runic Magic Circle.”

“Tsk tsk, this is too mind-boggling. A half-spirit that can unleash a Runic Magic Circle, a rather elaborate one at that.”

Damsy and the rest were astounded when they saw the black cat Didimoss spitting out runes. Their eyes widened and fixed steadily upon Didimoss.

Only Merlin seemed rather pensive. The black cat Didimoss was a spirit of the Runic Magic Circle, born in a Runic Magic Circle. Then, he became a half-spirit and escaped the binds of the Runic Magic Circle.

Therefore, it was not very surprising that he could use runes to deal with opponents. Nonetheless, to those who did not know the truth about the black cat Didimoss, like Damsy and the rest, this was truly astonishing.

Since when could a cat use a Runic Magic Circle?

The black cat Didimoss swallowed all white sparks in the cave in one gulp. His belly seemed bloated but he still appeared to be insatiable.

“Swish.”

The black cat Didimoss jumped onto Merlin’s shoulder and began to doze off with closed eyes. He must be beginning to digest all that energy which was left after those spirits died. Not only could the mysterious energy increase the Mind Power of a Spell Caster but it also allowed Didimoss a chance to become a living being. Furthermore, once the black cat Didimoss had transformed into a living being, it seemed likely to possess various mystical abilities. Perhaps even the black cat Didimoss himself could not predict what would happen.

Damsy looked at the black cat Didimoss and his languid manner, saying rather admiringly, “Wizard Merlin, how lucky you are to have a half-spirit pet. In addition, he has a chance of turning into a living being. In general, it’s incredibly difficult for a spirit to become a living being for it goes against the natural order. However, once the reversal is complete, the reversed one would possess mystical energy so extreme that it’s terrifying!”

“Oh? Wizard Damsy, do you know of any spirits who’ve reversed and becomes a living being?”

Merlin was very concerned about the black cat Didimoss. After all, Didimoss had followed him from the Kingdom of Blackmoon to the Void Zone and could be considered the closest creature to Merlin.

Thus, Merlin hoped that the black cat Didimoss could fulfill his wish and transform into a living being!

“Transform into a living being? I’ve not heard of that but according to rumors, gods born in dimensions are able to condense a body of flesh and blood but it’s still something that was condensed, a non-living thing in essence. Therefore, these gods wish to go one step further, which is to progressively increase their life force, finally transforming into a true living entity.

“Once a god like this comes into being, it would be a universal shock. Not even Honored Legends are a match for these gods can become on par with the most powerful Arcane Wizard in a flash!”

Damsy said with a grave expression.

“Gods who want to transform into living beings? Upon transformation, they’re comparable to the most powerful Arcane Wizard?”

Merlin was stunned to his core. He had some understanding of gods, knowing that the source of their energy was the faith of living creatures. The greater the power of faith, the more tenacious a god was.

Nonetheless, no matter how strong a god was, they were no match for the supreme Arcane Wizard. This was the core reason the Spell Caster civilization could rapidly expand and occupy tens of thousands of dimensions. It was because of the Arcane Wizard’s existence.

A Legend with one Maxim was comparable to most gods, and could even defeat them. Gods who were slightly stronger would need to occupy a colossal dimension or go beyond that dimension to occupy two, three or even more dimensions.

Such a formidable god would obtain an unending flow of incomparably powerful faith, and consolidate their divinity. They could even wage war against Great Legendary Wizards.

However, that was the limit. No matter how strong a god was, even if they occupied ten or twenty gigantic dimensions, possessing boundless power of faith, their fighting powers were only somewhat strengthened. They could only be compared to an Honored Legend.

Among the gods, there had never been one who could compare to an Arcane Wizard. This was key to the rise of the Spell Caster civilization as well as why the gods were defeated step by step.

Merlin eyed the black cat Didimoss who had sunk into a deep sleep. He could only sense that Didimoss seemed to be digesting the white sparks while his life force became increasingly solid. It seemed like those white sparks were useful to Didimoss indeed.

“Alright, let’s go. By right, this is merely the first floor. There are even stronger spirits below. We mustn’t let down our guard!”

As the leader of the four, Damsy was able to decide whether they should move on. After she spoke, Merlin nodded and followed the three of them as they entered the depths of the cave.



In the luxurious palace, Wizard Mogan and Wizard Yatho currently wore expressions of unparalleled solemnity. They looked at the image within the palace where Merlin and the rest were about to head into the depths of the cave.

In contrast to Damsy and the rest, Wizard Mogan and Wizard Yatho’s face turned more somber as if they seemed to have made a great discovery.

They exchanged a glance. Wizard Yatho said in a low voice, “Mogan, you really didn’t know about this before?”

Wizard Mogan looked at Merlin’s figure in the image, especially at the black cat Didimoss on Merlin’s shoulder, and shook his head helplessly. “I really didn’t know. I only knew that this black cat named Didimoss seemed to have followed Merlin from the Glorious Land. Although he’s a half-spirit, he didn’t reveal any special characteristics, so I didn’t pay him much attention.”

After a pause, a vigorous look flashed across Wizard Mogan’s face as he continued saying, “Who would have thought that the black cat Didimoss would show indications of transformation into a living entity? This goes against the natural order… The natural order, which is supreme, is a field which even the Arcane Wizards are striving to master… Once he succeeds, even if he’s just a black cat with not much power, he could become a powerful being in a flash, ultimately reaching the level of a Legend!”

Wizard Mogan and Wizard Yatho were naturally much more knowledgeable than Damsy and the rest. They knew how abnormal it was for a spirit to transform into a living entity.

Certain spirits who had great innate strength showed no signs of turning into a living being. Moreover, the black cat Didimoss was obviously transforming in an autonomous manner. There was a high chance of success. This was very unnatural and astounding.

In other words, the black cat Didimoss’ talent and worth had now surpassed Merlin’s.

Wizard Yatho shook his head helplessly. “I really don’t know who this Merlin is to be so lucky. Not only is he a Six-Elemental Spell Caster but he can also fuse spells, has obtained special Pandora Demon Ability, and is even accompanied by an unnatural half-spirit with the hope of turning into a living being. Tsk tsk, Mogan, as your old friend, let me tell you something. I’m afraid you won’t be able to hold on to this Merlin!”

“Indeed, I won’t be able to! By now, there’s not much I can teach him…”

Wizard Mogan smiled bitterly. In truth, ever since he became Merlin’s teacher, he had not taught Merlin much. Wizard Mogan was merely an ordinary Legend. Faced with a Spell Caster like Merlin who was a genius on all fronts with frightening talent, he did not know how to teach or where to even start.

Merlin had no need for guidance in spell construction. Cultivating Pandora Demon Abilities simply required certain mystical treasures, and teaching was not necessary at all. As for spell fusion, Merlin was currently trying to fuse spells already. In the future, fusing Spell Models on his own would be something that would come naturally to him.

Faced with such a genius, Wizard Mogan had a general sense of helplessness.

“Perhaps it’s time to bring Merlin to Arcane City…”

Wizard Mogan wore a complicated expression as he spoke.
