"Maya!"

Merlin shouted on the top of his lungs. No one else would happen to be here at this moment besides Maya from the Golden Light Tribe.

"Merlin!"

Maya's voice showed a trace of disdain. Although he was cautious of the Spell Caster force, it was the entire Spell Caster civilization that he was cautious about and not Merlin alone.

Moreover, as the strongest contender of his tribe, Maya had led the Golden Light Tribe through trials and tribulations in the Void Zone. If not for Maya, perhaps the Golden Light Tribe would have been wiped out a long time ago.

Therefore, the purpose of Maya coming here was to exert pressure with his authority on Merlin so that he would relinquish this dimension. Everything would have been solved after that. However, he knew that the matter would not be solved easily after he had seen Merlin.

This was because Maya could detect the intense fighting spirit rolling off Merlin.

"Very well, I haven't fought in a long time as well!"

Maya actually chuckled when he sensed the fighting spirit from Merlin. He had not fought anyone ever since he became the one and only 'Golden Light-level' existence among the Golden Light Tribe.

Golden Light-level was the most powerful existence among the Golden Light Tribe. Of course, it was founded by Maya. In other words, whatever achievement Maya could unlock, that achievement would then become the legacy of the Golden Light Tribe. Maya was the founder of the Golden Light Tribe.

"Oblivion…"

Merlin extended a finger and the multi-colored Wizard Heart gave a tiny shudder. Subsequently, the already pitch-black Void Zone suddenly turned even darker than before. Even their senses could not be extended.

The all-encompassing Darkness Element frenziedly formed a cage and surrounded Maya. This was the obliviating function of Darkness spells—even the powerful Legendary Wizards could be trapped in this bottomless pit of oblivion.

Nevertheless, Merlin did not employ his Mind Power Hallucinating spells. He knew that faced against an Honored Legend existence, his Hallucinating spells would not be effective at all.

The Darkness-type spell might not necessarily be useful either. Hence, his multi-colored heart quivered again, and frigid air burst forth from within those Darkness Elements.

Ka-chak! Ka-chak!

The frigid air continued to wield Ice Seal. Maya, on the other hand, did not react at all. Merlin's multi-colored Wizard Heart was the manifestation of his Six-Elemental spell combination, so it could transform to any spell at any time.

This was still Merlin's first time wielding so many variances of spells.

"Not bad, your spells are indeed powerful! Even more powerful than the Maxims consolidated by the Spell Caster Legends!"

Maya's voice resounded calmly in the darkness.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

Rays of golden light immediately pierced through the darkness. Merlin felt an intense vibration in his Wizard Heart. His previously unstoppable spells were all torn apart.

Boom!

The darkness dissipated. Maya stood unharmed in the middle of the Void Zone. Rays of oppressing golden light shown through his body. Since they were named the Golden Light Tribe, then these golden rays were naturally incredible and were the foundation of the Golden Light Tribe.

Many foreign tribe civilizations possessed some natural talents. The same went for the Golden Light Tribe. The reason they were called the Golden Light Tribe a ball of golden light inside exist in their bodies the moment they were born.

After that, this ball of golden light would also swell in size as they grew stronger. Finally, it could be used to kill an enemy. For example, Maya's body right now was radiating golden light from head to toe, attesting to the extent of his might.

Moreover, this golden light had many uses. It could increase speed to inconceivable levels. It could go even faster than the Feather Tribe. It could also be used for an offensive attack. The power of the golden light was relatively formidable. Just now, Merlin's Ice-type spell and Darkness-type spell were both dispelled by Maya's golden light.

At this moment, Merlin knew that Maya was indeed comparable to an Honored Legend, and was not just an average Honored Legend.

Nevertheless, Merlin was unafraid. The fighting spirit in his body condensed further. At the same time, the multi-colored Wizard Heart behind him began to solidify subtly. Streams of elements began to accumulate around Merlin.

"Suppress!"

Nevertheless, Maya remained unruffled. Since his powers were stronger than Merlin, he utilized the easiest method—suppression.

Boom!

A golden river appeared in the Void Zone. Merlin immediately sensed an unparalleled and brutal force being pressed against him.

He raised his head to look at the golden river above his head. This sizable golden river was the origin of Maya's power. Unless Merlin could tear this river apart, he would never be a worthy contender to Maya and would not be able to escape Maya's suppression.

The multi-colored Wizard Heart behind Merlin was starting to dim. In fact, it was being further suppressed by Maya and seemed like it would collapse at any given moment now.

Maya's staggering display of strength allowed Merlin to come to the realization that although he was very close to the level of an Honored Legend, he was still not an Honored Legend yet. He was still not powerful enough.

"Wizard Merlin, you're not my opponent. This dimension was originally occupied by the Golden Light Tribe."

Maya's voice resounded in Merlin's ear, and the pressure gradually eased. Although Merlin was almost out of breath, the pressure did not continue to suffocate him.

Otherwise, Merlin's Wizard Heart might be crushed.

Merlin was slightly surprised. He was ready to dispatch the empire-level warship because Maya's ability was too powerful for him to withstand. Nonetheless, he realized that Maya did not ramp up his power but instead simply maintained the immense pressure.

It could be said to be unthinkable!

"Wait a minute, so Maya doesn't want me to die? Perhaps, he's afraid that if I die, the Golden Light Tribe might not be able to withstand the pressure from the Spell Caster civilization?"

Countless thoughts flashed past Merlin's mind.

He had nothing to fear from Merlin with his abilities. The could escape easily even if he killed Merlin. In addition, many people were killed daily in boundless territory. The loss of a Great Legend was considered common. The Spell Caster civilization would not be bothered to retaliate.

Nonetheless, Maya was not just thinking about himself, but the entire Golden Light Tribe behind him! Maya might not be afraid of Merlin, but he was afraid of the oppression the Spell Caster civilization might pose on the Golden Light Tribe.

If Maya killed Merlin right now and provoked the Spell Caster civilization, he would still be able to escape unscathed. However, the rest of the Golden Light Tribe would not be able to follow suit. This was the miserable reality for a weak civilization like theirs.

Therefore, Maya did not dare to kill Merlin despite being so much more powerful than him.

Once Merlin had guessed Maya's thoughts, a smile gradually appeared on the corners of his lips. Merlin would not miss this opportunity since he no longer had to worry about his survival.

This was an opponent equivalent to an Honored Legend who had come specifically to spar with Merlin. Such an opportunity was not easy to come by.

Hence, Merlin gave up the idea of using the empire-level Wizard Heart. Instead, he activated the multi-colored Wizard Heart once again, even at the risk of collapsing, to withstand the pressure from Maya.

Furthermore, Merlin also mobilized energy from the dimensions!

Boom!

All around Merlin, he could feel the energy coming from all the eight dimensions he had under his control. At this moment, Merlin decided to unleash his maximum abilities to compete against Maya. He intended to break through the bottleneck that was holding him back. Only by exhausting all his energy and being under the pressure of life and death would he be able to overcome the limitations and achieve enlightenment.

Suddenly, each of the dimensions began to quake. Flares of energy from the Elemental Origins were being wildly absorbed by Merlin's multi-colored Wizard Heart. It almost seemed like the multi-colored Wizard Heart would surpass its limit and gain a mightier power.

"Endless darkness, endless oblivion… Darkness, isolation, solitude…"

Merlin mobilized the Elemental Origins of the eight dimensions, especially the Darkness Elemental Origin. At this moment, Merlin's Wizard Heart had turned almost completely black.

Maya scoffed in derision when he saw Merlin's rebound. The golden river above Merlin's head shone down a golden light and enveloped Merlin. The pressure grew stronger right away.

"The pressure is still insufficient for me to gain enlightenment…"

Merlin glanced at the golden river above his head. It seemed terribly challenging for him to crush it. It was simply impossible with his abilities.

A trace of coldness could be seen from Maya's gaze when he saw that Merlin's will to fight was getting stronger and stronger. Although he did not wish to kill Merlin just so he could prevent the destruction of the Golden Light Tribe, it did not mean that he was unaffected by Merlin's attacks.

He could not kill Merlin, but he could teach him a lesson. Arriving at this thought, he reached out a hand and the water in the river above Merlin's head began to surge and roar in its wake.

An unparalleled pressure descended out of nowhere. Merlin's Wizard Heart was facing the pressure from the golden river directly. Maya was going to crush Merlin's Wizard Heart.

A Wizard Heart was a Spell Caster's roots. Should one's Wizard Heart be destroyed, he would not die, but there would be devastating consequences. It was especially so with Merlin since he had yet to become a Legend yet. Condensing a Wizard Heart again was most likely out of the question.

Ka-chak!

Finally, a fissure appeared on Merlin's Wizard Heart. His entire being became suppressed by tremendous pressure, and the multi-colored Wizard Heart began to collapse.

Merlin already closed his eyes at this point. He had already had them closed from the moment the fissures appeared on the multi-colored Wizard heart. The potential gap between life and death was stretched to its limit.

"Darkness, oblivion and death!"

Merlin's mind recalled the moment he was killed by the Lord God of Light. The feeling of endless darkness and oblivion seemed to gain clarity during this critical moment and lingered in his mind.

Merlin was able to feel the various changes that transpired when he was about to die at that time only at the verge of life and death. It was these changes that triggered the transformation in Merlin's Wizard Heart.

Boom!

A vortex appeared out of the blue on top of the multi-colored Wizard Heart. Endless darkness transformed into a vortex, and a spine-tingling aura seemed to emanate from inside the pitch-black vortex…
