Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 1434: Section 1435: The Disappearing Vision

The internal tearing sensation caused Angel’s sense of the passage of time to become blurred.

He felt as if his body was incessantly sinking, sinking… into a vast and unfathomable ocean, an ‘ocean’ so dense that nothing could penetrate it. In this surround, Angel saw all manner of bizarre scenes. And as he continued to plunge into the abyss, under the pressure of the deep sea, his body began to tear apart.

Angel felt his body being torn into countless pieces, and his consciousness was shattered, with a fragment of it attaching to each piece of flesh.

His thoughts exploded like a burst balloon, and at this moment, he couldn’t make any logical judgments.

Until, Angel fell to the seafloor.

When he felt his body could no longer sink, everything seemed to come to a stop. He forced himself to open his eyes amid the chaotic darkness—

The darkness vanished in an instant.

Before him stood only a majestic door, which Angel recognized all too well as the Gate Model he had constructed, pattern by pattern.

At this moment, that door was shimmering with dazzling light.

Angel subconsciously wanted to approach the door, and the environment around him instantly became fuzzy. By the time he realized what was happening, he was already standing before it.

As Angel approached the door, the discomfort in his body began to subside. The feeling of being torn apart, both flesh and consciousness, seemed to have been glued back together. Even his ability to think was gradually restored.

Angel suddenly seemed to understand something.

He stepped through the door without any hesitation.

As he entered, all the discomfort in his body dissipated, and he felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

Before him, a “path” appeared.

And the door behind Angel shattered with a roar, dissolving into countless streaks of light, merging into the darkness.

…

After an unknown amount of time had passed,

Angel opened his eyes back in reality. He slowly stretched his body, gradually uncurling from his huddled position.

Then, he stood up.

There was a rustling sound behind him. He turned to look and saw Sanders watching him, his eyes filled with confusion as if he had something to say.

And directly in front of Sanders, Frost with his gear mask was also looking at him. Although Angel couldn’t see Frost’s expression, he could feel a pair of intrigued eyes coming from behind that mask.

Angel slowly lifted his head to look at the sky.

The first thing he saw was the dome, then the Ghost Ship drifting in the air. On the deck of the Ghost Ship, there seemed to be familiar figures… but these were not what Angel was focused on.

He finally turned to look at the center of the swirling black cloud vortex overhead.

There was a void there, with all the black clouds spiraling around it, resembling the Magic Vortex he had just envisioned.

Angel quietly observed this void, and the void, like a pair of eyes embedded in the center of the vortex, met his gaze.

This was a strange sight that puzzled everyone’s mind.

Only Angel, whose expression went from initial bewilderment to a slow contemplation, and finally to a smile, as if he had realized something.

Everyone saw the changes in Angel’s expression, but they didn’t know that Angel’s Mind Space was also undergoing some kind of change.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Angel lowered his head, deep in thought.

At the same time, everyone suddenly felt a brightness before their eyes, and the previously oppressive air returned to normal, including the terrifying presence of the world’s will that had also completely vanished.

They looked up in confusion, only to find that the black clouds that had spread across the entire sky had disappeared without a trace.

In the pitch-black night sky, now without a single cloud, only a lone moon shone coldly, casting a silver glow on everyone.

On the sky’s Ghost Ship, Falga looked at the old wizard in confusion, “What does this mean? Wasn’t that a Law Creation Phenomenon? Why did it suddenly disappear?”

Falga had read about the Law Creation Phenomenon in books.

Essentially, the duration of a Law Creation Phenomenon lasts at least a number of “days.” When Greya created Creation Magic over the Cloudnet Sea, the phenomenon that appeared even stretched on for a hundred days: every gust of wind that brushed against the Cloudnet Sea became tainted with the scent of minced flesh; every stream that flowed into the Cloudnet Sea scattered fragrances akin to fine wine.

Angel’s phenomenon was too bizarre, coming together, then dissipating; coming together again, only to dissipate again.

Is this really a Law Creation Phenomenon?

Falga’s question left the Wizard unable to answer; he couldn’t help but cast his gaze toward the several powerful Witches of Black Castle, hoping to find an answer from them.

However, Isabella was still immersed in her own emotions. Kimberly shook her head at him, indicating she didn’t know either.

In the end, the Wizard looked toward the foremost part of the deck, at the white-haired woman with icy eyes—Isabel.

She had triggered Law Creation Phenomenon several times a millennium ago; she might know something.

Facing the Wizard’s puzzled look, Isabel said softly, “This Law Creation Phenomenon is filled with oddities, and the emergence of the world’s will also seems amiss. However, making a judgment is not difficult.”

“Who provoked this phenomenon? Go and look at him, and you’ll know the answer.”

Everyone cast their gaze upon Angel.

As Falga watched Angel, he initially felt nothing, but perhaps their stares were too intense, making Angel also lift his head from his thoughts.

When Falga’s gaze met Angel’s, his heart skipped a beat. A terrifying thought burrowed into Falga’s mind. In his eyes, Angel once again transformed into a giant, whose indifferent gaze was watching him…

“Wake up,” a cold voice entered Falga’s ears.

He looked up and saw Isabel standing in front of him at some point.

“Angel has just broken through not long ago and has yet to rein in his consciousness of spiritual-intent. His power is too far from yours, staring at him now will only bring harm to yourself,” Isabel said softly.

Falga nodded blankly; he didn’t fully comprehend the meaning behind Isabel’s words, but the first sentence she spoke was deeply imprinted in his heart.

—Angel has just broken through not long ago.

Isabel’s words had confirmed one thing: Angel had truly broken through.

Countless Apprentices struggled bloodily and fell one after another on this path, yet Angel had charged through on his own… Falga had always considered himself a genius, but at this moment, he began to doubt his own Talent.

Falga’s bewilderment was due to Angel’s breakthrough.

But, the Wizard was actually very bewildered at this time too.

Heeding Isabel’s words, the Wizard observed Angel. He too noticed that the air around Angel was swirling with the aura only an Official Wizard would possess, indicating that Angel had indeed succeeded in the breakthrough.

The Wizard felt bewildered because when he tried to sense Angel’s strength, he could feel nothing.

He was puzzled and tried to sense again, this time even using a Spell Technique.

But still, there was a void.

Right at that moment, Angel lifted his head and met the eyes of everyone on the Ghost Ship. The Wizard did not fall into an Illusion like Falga did, but he deeply felt as if, in that moment, he was facing a towering mountain!

Angel’s power was already so formidable just after his promotion?

“Could it be that the phenomenon from before was indeed a Law Creation Phenomenon, and he has already embarked on the path of True Knowledge?” the Wizard wondered.

Isabel shook her head: “He has not entered the realm of True Knowledge yet, but the path lies under his feet…”

Her meaning was quite clear: although Angel had not become True Knowledge, the path to it was no longer vague to him, and in time, it was inevitable that he would become True Knowledge.

That is to say, the Law Creation Phenomenon had to be real, otherwise Angel would not have seen this path.

But Isabel had her doubts too: if the Law Creation Phenomenon was real, why had it suddenly vanished?

Under the dome, Sanders was also asking Frost this question.

Sanders was very surprised, wondering why a Law Creation Phenomenon would appear during Angel’s promotion? As far as he knew, Angel seemed not to have engaged in any acts of Creation recently. But now that it had appeared, he wasn’t concerned with what specific Creation it was; he was more eager to know, why had the Law Creation Phenomenon dispersed so quickly?

After pondering for a moment, Frost still watched the sky.

“Do you really think the Law Creation Phenomenon has disappeared?”
