[Sponsored] Chapter 71: Ancient One Appears

[This Chapter Is Sponsored by Loc Le! Everyone, please thank him in the comment!] (18/18)

At the critical point, the air collapsed towards Bi Xiao's direction, and in his eyes, golden flames blazed. He struck mightily towards the Ancient God Sargeras in the sky.

Boom!!

In an instant, the ground shattered, the surging air currents rolled back, causing the several kilometers wide pit to deepen further, and the rolling waves turned the surrounding land inside out. Floating debris was also compressed into dust.

A dazzling stream of golden energy erupted from the sword, pointing straight at the Ancient God Sargeras in the sky.

Feeling the oppressive force, Sargeras roared and turned his body around, his entire being ablaze with surging green energy, his massive palms shielding in front of him. The stream moved swiftly, as fast as light.

The majestic golden stream completely engulfed the Ancient God Sargeras.

The golden stream burst forth with brilliant light, dispersing the sky, sweeping across with explosive force, lighting up the heavens, the clouds seared by the intense heat, and the high-temperature energy visibly distorting the air.

Within that stream, a giant figure could faintly be seen angrily roaring and struggling, the green glow fleeting before being overwhelmed by the gold.

The so-called Ancient God Sargeras, a Titan lifeform, ultimately perished within this unstoppable force, turned to dust and smoke.

The rolling waves reached tens of kilometers, the sudden, blinding light like the morning sun turned day into night.

After a long duration, darkness slowly returned.

After the calm, all that was left was devastation, the surrounding natural mountains broken, large and small pits resembling the aftermath of missile strikes, many peaks were cut off by the residual waves.

Countless broken wood and stones piled up, lakes evaporated.

The central area was filled with numerous large and small cracks, the originally graceful natural mountain environment was completely rewritten; even if someone wanted to develop this area, constructing even a single complete road would be challenging.

Perhaps only from an aerial view could one discern a kind of broken beauty.

Bi Xiao, holding a cross sword, stood within the giant crater, watching the essence of life, richer than the Blood God, enter his body. In an instant, the process of his sub-god transformation was shortened by about a tenth.

He began to feel his life's progression moving towards a new stage, displaying miraculous, all-around enhancements, and the world before him seemed to change slightly, becoming sharper, seeing things many people could not.

Bi Xiao did not delve deeper into these thoughts, because next, he was going to meet an important person, someone who had appeared during his battle with Sargeras.

The figure slowly floated up, flying towards the southwest. Soon he saw a relatively intact mountain cliff, and the person looking up at him.

Upon seeing this person, he immediately confirmed his thoughts.

His body slowly floated down, landing in front of this person.

"It's our first meeting, I am pleased to meet you, Mr. Bi Xiao, my name is Ancient One, and I am a Sorcerer."

Her gentle female voice carried an indescribable magnetism, like a clear spring, like a comforting sage.

This was a woman, also bald, wearing a yellow Sorcerer's robe, holding a folding fan, with a necklace adorned with a green gem around her neck.

"Sorcerer, Ancient One? Indeed, I had previously sensed that the entire space had changed, it seems all these were preparations made by the Sorcerer Supreme, Ancient One."

Bi Xiao raised an eyebrow.

"Titan Old God Sargeras, his status is high, and the battle between you would have killed many innocent people if this space were not sealed."

Ancient One openly admitted this: "So I had to employ some tricks."

"These tricks, to me, are truly miraculous." Bi Xiao glanced around, if he hadn't noticed before, killing Old God Sargeras and further sensing after advancing in life, he acutely felt that although this world seemed very real, it subtly gave him a sense of incongruity.

It seemed he shouldn't appear here, and from a deeper perspective, a peculiar energy fluctuation formed a vast space.

Bi Xiao was certain, this must be one of the magical mirror space spells.

Creating a space completely isolated from reality, in this space, one can observe everything in the real world, but those in the real world cannot harm or see the mirror space.

And in this world, the caster can completely construct the space they desire.

A very powerful magic.

Used by a Sorcerer of Ancient One's caliber, it would not be easily detected.

With this, Bi Xiao felt his previous thoughts were indeed correct; despite the thin and frail appearance of this bald woman, who was in close combat, was killed by her own disciple, who's life status was far inferior to her own.

But beneath this frail appearance, hid a terrifying soul.

This soul stored vast magical knowledge, allowing her to not be bound by her body, completely able to leave this nearly decayed old body, and travel the multiverse with her soul.

Even using her soul to materialize, reconstructing a new body was simple.

In terms of the cultivation world, this was a grandmaster of the primordial spirit, taking a completely different path from those who achieved sanctity through their physical bodies alone.

Bi Xiao, now slightly evaluating himself against Ancient One, with his super-brain analysis, felt he could struggle a bit, then be magically killed by Ancient One.

As for being killed in close combat by that disciple and then falling to his death, that was something only the early naive Dr. Strange would believe.

Purely a tool being misled about magic, likely in the mid to late stages when becoming one of the nine realms' strongest Sorcerers, he would guess that Ancient One initially faked her death to escape, throwing the responsibility to Dr. Strange.

Unable to fight, unable to strike, Bi Xiao promptly set aside some unrealistic thoughts, just putting on a show.

"You have a very sharp sense, Mr. Bi Xiao, it seems you have begun to understand this world."
