Chapter 624: The Six-Elemental Wizard Heart

"Boom."
When the Ninth-level Darkness-type Spell Model was fused, all the Spell Models vibrated gently. A black mist wrapped around the Spell Model as it underwent gradual changes. Finally, the black mist dissipated, and formed a black ball of light with the appearance of a heart.
"The Wizard Heart!"
Merlin was immediately reminded of the Wizard Heart wielded by Saturn and Rael when they were facing the powerful Progenitor's Body. That was the foundation of the Great Wizards, a multicolored ball of light formed by combining all the Spell Models in their bodies.
Right now, except for the color, in terms of aura and shape, Merlin's black ball of light was no different from the Great Wizards' Wizard Heart.
In fact, this was a Wizard Heart. However, it was a Wizard Heart formed through the combination of Darkness-type Spell Models alone. It had not yet become a real Wizard Heart because Merlin still needed to combine the Darkness-type, Fire-type, Wind-type, Ice-type, Earth-type, and Thunder-type Spell Models together. Then only would he be able to consolidate the real Wizard Heart and become a Great Wizard.
However, in Merlin's case, this step would be incredibly arduous. Combining Spell Models of the same type was relatively simple because he could rely on his powerful Mind Power to suppress it, and forcefully trigger the fusion.
On the other hand, fusing different types of spells was highly challenging. Especially if the respective single-type Wizard Heart was very powerful, then, it would be even more difficult to combine the different types together. Perhaps, at the stage of preparing to attempt the fusion, the Wizard Heart would completely burst open and collapse.
So, it would take a long time for Merlin to consolidate the true, multicolored Wizard Heart. Or, if he were lucky to encounter some opportunities, it would speed up the process of combining the Wizard Heart of each type.
These thoughts flashed across Merlin's mind. After the Darkness-type Wizard Heart was born, Merlin could clearly sense its powerful ability. It seemed that through the Wizard Heart, he could wield any spell from the Zero- to the Ninth-level, and they could be switched around as he liked.
This already showed the faint markings of a Great Wizard. A Great Wizard's spells could be switched around at will, so any spell wielded by a Great Wizard would be more powerful than any Spell Model that had to be simulated using Mind Power.
This was the use of the Wizard Heart. The only defect was that Merlin's Wizard Heart was not multicolored.
Upon sensing the Wizard Heart consolidated from the Darkness-type spells, Merlin's heart was sorely tempted. Currently, they were fighting at the front lines in a war against the Rock Tribe. Hence, any increase in strength was also an increase in chances of survival. After all, no one knew when a civilization war would erupt. That was brutal warfare that would kill even the Great Legends and Honored Legends.
As such, Merlin decided to continue fusing Spell Models. After the Darkness-type Spell Model fusion, he continued with the Fire-type Spell Model, Wind-type Spell Model, and so on. There was a look on his face that he would not be satisfied until he consolidated Six-Elemental Wizard Hearts.
…
The Seely Dimension had been completely controlled by Spell Casters. There was also the powerful Mille Squad guarding the fort. Following the capture of the Seely Dimension, the Spell Caster civilization also gained an upper hand in other dimensions at the front line. Compared to the beginning of the war, the situation had been completely reversed.
The Spell Caster civilization had revealed its powerful foundations.
However, the Rock Tribe was not weak either. If anyone were to claim that the Rock Tribe had given up, most of the Spell Casters would not believe it. Nevertheless, it had been more than half a year, but the front line was very quiet. The quieter it was, the more suspicious it appeared to be.
Perhaps, the next attack by the Rock Tribe would be terribly fearsome.
In the Rock Tribe's dimension was a palace floating in mid-air. Inside, Progenitor Hanra was looking calmly at six strange Rock Creatures. These Rock Creatures had a black body that glowed with a dark red light.
Rock Creatures possessing such strange traits were said to be the most powerful according to the Rock Tribe's history. They were the most preeminent prodigies of the entire civilization, and had great potential to become one of the most powerful Ancestor-level Rock Creatures.
Even Progenitor Hanra was once upon a time a Rock Creature like this, able to challenge beyond his level!
"The six of you are the biggest secret of the Rock Tribe. On the surface, we only have two civilization-level prodigies, but in actual fact, we have six of you!"
Progenitor Hanra looked at these six Rock Creatures confidently. There were a few reasons he decided to trigger the war. Besides the years of accumulated grudges against the Spell Casters and the issue of developing the Rock Tribe civilization in a different direction, his decision was also influenced by these six civilization-level prodigies.
The term civilization-level prodigy denoted that, on average, only one individual out of the entire civilization would be an existence capable of challenging a Great Legend beyond his or her level. If there were any civilization where two civilization-level prodigies emerged simultaneously, then it would be an impressive civilization.
Right now, however, six civilization-level prodigies had emerged among the Rock Tribe. All of them were existences like Alcra, who was able to challenge a Great Legend beyond his level. Moreover, the Tree Tribe civilization was also considered a relatively strong civilization, yet they only produced one civilization-level prodigy – Alcra.
Progenitor Hanra continued. "Over the years, only three civilization-level prodigies have emerged among the Spell Caster civilization, which are from the three great Arcane Cities. Nonetheless, based on my speculation, the Spell Caster civilization must be hiding some other civilization-level prodigies. Perhaps it's two or maybe three but it's not important. Even if the Spell Caster civilization was to have seven or eight civilization-level prodigies, it doesn't matter because as long as the Legends don't interfere, they'll undoubtedly lose!"
Progenitor Hanra appeared to be very confident. Once the six civilization-level prodigies summoned the Progenitor's Body, their powers would be mind-blowingly formidable. The reason Progenitor Hanra had not organized any attack at the front line for so long was to gather these six civilization-level prodigies.
"Great Progenitor Hanra, we'll not abandon our mission. We'll drive away all those pathetic Spell Casters."
These six civilization-level prodigies shouted in unison.
Progenitor Hanra shook his head. "You don't have to be in such a hurry. You're the last playing card of the Rock Tribe. Right now, before the civilization war breaks out, we'll try to occupy as many dimensions as possible. However, not all of you can reveal yourselves. Only the two publicly-known ones can show themselves.
"Aroyo, Samka, both of you go to the Seely Dimension. It's best if you can travel at the fastest speed possible, so that the Spell Casters cannot react in time, and occupy the Seely Dimension. Hehe, I believe Setoh must've made preparations. If he sends out two or three civilization-level prodigies, the four of you will immediately launch into battle, and form the Progenitor's Body. Kill two or three of the Spell Caster's civilization-level prodigies, and victory will be ours. That's the greatest hit on the Spell Caster civilization!"
Progenitor Hanra quickly made detailed arrangements. His aim was to kill the Spell Casters' civilization-level prodigies. Every civilization-level prodigy was very precious because they held the potential to become a Great Lord in the future.
The role of a Great Lord in a civilization war was unimaginable because as long as it was not genocide, the Arcane Wizards would not involve themselves. Thus, the most powerful force was the Great Lords.
If there was one powerful Great Lord, it might even decide the outcome of the war. This war between the Spell Casters civilization and the Rock Tribe civilization was highly likely to turn into a civilization war, so it was impossible to end it in a short time. Most probably, it would continue for a few hundred or a few thousand years or maybe even longer. Thus, the civilization-level prodigies had a direct impact on the outcome of the war.
"Great Progenitor Hanra, we'll go to the Seely Dimension now!"
Aroyo and Samka exchanged a look. They could see the excitement in each other's eyes. The Rock Tribe's cavalry had arrived!
…
"Chi."
In Merlin's Awareness, following the birth of the final Thunder-type Wizard Heart, Merlin finally combined all his Six-Elemental Spell Models into Six-Elemental Wizard Hearts. The powers of his spells were significantly stronger than before.
In addition, Merlin's Four-Elemental spell fusion also increased in strength. However, combining these Six-Elemental Wizard Hearts to consolidate the multicolored Wizard Heart, and become a Great Wizard was truly challenging.
"Phew…"
Merlin let out a long sigh of relief. In a low voice, he mumbled, "Time to fuse Darkness Eye!"
After consolidating Six-Elemental Wizard Hearts in a row, Merlin was now ready to continue his attempt to cultivate the seventh form of Darkness Eye. He had already completed the first step, so now he was beginning the second step, which was fusing Darkness Eye.
This was also a very crucial step, fusing Darkness Eye with the Darkness-type Wizard Heart. With Merlin's single thought, Darkness Eye appeared in his Awareness, and initiated to fuse with the Darkness-type Wizard Heart.
"Can they really fuse together?"
Merlin's heart was overjoyed. In reality, as long as someone was able to cultivate Darkness Eye to its sixth form, the seventh form was basically given. The only danger was that the Legend of Darkness would take this opportunity to gain control over the Spell Caster, turning the Spell Caster who had cultivated the seventh form of Darkness Eye into his puppet.
Merlin, on the other hand, was in no such danger as the threat had already been removed by the Blackfire Lord. Therefore, Merlin could boldly cultivate the seventh form of Darkness Eye.
Soon, Darkness Eye and the Darkness-type Wizard Heart were completely fused together. The last remaining step was to integrate his Mind Power with Darkness Eye.
This was the last step of cultivating the seventh form of Darkness Eye as well as the most critical step. Upon success, the seventh form would be unlocked.
"Hum."
Merlin gathered his enormous Mind Power, and entered his Awareness. In fact, it also affected the other Wizard Hearts as they were vibrating constantly. This proved how powerful Merlin's Mind Power really was.
"Fuse!"
Merlin growled, and the huge Mind Power swiftly covered Darkness Eye like a huge wave of flood.
"Boom."
Merlin's Mind Power instantly entered an endless blood-red sea that was howling madly with an incessant stench of blood. There was also a myriad of horrible negative emotions crashing down like a tide, fiercely attacking Merlin's Awareness.
At the same time, Merlin did not notice that behind him, traces of crimson light began to converge, and a giant apparition of a crimson eye slowly appeared…
