Water Mage in the Flame Realm-Chapter 373 - 361: What Is Overwhelming Force

From defeating Liek to handling the Blood of the Fire God with the help of that Water God’s voice and then condensing the Black Heavy Sword, the entire process actually occurred in a very short time.

At the same time, the female Warrior Chief on the opposite side, unsure if Andrew was also injured after Liek’s fall, immediately gestured, meaning, "Go up and test him! If you can kill him, do it while he’s weak! Don’t waste words."

Compared to Liek, this female Warrior Chief was entirely different, having a very straightforward and brutal battlefield style.

Two Flame Warriors immediately stepped forward. These two weren’t originally skilled at stealth, yet each was covered by a thin layer of water, concealed exceptionally well with the aid of a certain Water Mage!

"Careful!" An urgent warning suddenly came from not far behind Andrew.

Andrew looked up at the sound, his eyes seemingly somewhat dazed.

Previously, while handling the Blood of the Fire God with the help of the Water God’s voice, Andrew never forgot to remain vigilant of his surroundings, knowing that although Liek had been defeated, the matter was not yet over.

However, at the instant the Heavy Sword was forming, Andrew sensed something as if he was distracted by new discoveries, even with the "Water Spirit Technique" calming his mind to maintain constant clarity!

One must understand that the path of cultivation differs from person to person, yet there are still traces to follow.

From Tier One to Tier Three, it is generally the stage where Professionals lay their foundation.

From Tier Four to Tier Six, it is the period to hone individual combat power — Tier Four consolidating "Whole Power," Tier Five consolidating "Magic Turbine," and Tier Six consolidating "Lifebound Magical Artifact" — which is the cultivation path almost all Magic Professionals, including Mages of various systems, must go through.

Therefore, Tier Six is actually a significant milestone rank.

Achieving Tier Six signifies that the foundation is solid enough and personal combat power has reached its peak.

Moving forward, it is not just about "individual" cultivation but about beginning to "understand the world."

For example, the "Wave Treading" of Tier Seven, "Sky Mastery" of Tier Eight, and "Chanting" of Tier Nine are powers naturally acquired as one’s understanding of the world from self to beyond grows deeper, which can also be called a kind of qualification.

And the medium that helps individuals further understand the world is precisely the Lifebound Magical Artifact formed in Tier Six!

At this moment, Andrew held the Black Heavy Sword — a sword seemingly simple and even crude in design, yet it actually embodies all the achievements of his cultivation thus far — and through the Heavy Sword as a medium, naturally felt the surrounding environment again, feeling this Outer Battlefield.

At this moment, Andrew suddenly realized, or rather sensed: why he had previously felt as though he "activated" the entire planet, and why when the voice of the Water God appeared in this Outer Battlefield, it gave people a "soul returning to the body" feeling.

"—This Outer Battlefield, this planet, probably isn’t a world that naturally exists within the starry sky. It wasn’t formed naturally!"

Andrew was shocked internally and murmured to himself, "It wasn’t this Outer Battlefield existing first, and then the Water Mages came here to flee. Rather, for the protection of her people, did the Water God create this world from nothing?

This is fundamentally a man-made planet! There is even a possibility that the Water God used her own body as raw material to create this world! How can this be merely an Outer Battlefield? This is fundamentally a ’Water God Realm’!"

Creating a world...

Even though Andrew had already broken through to Tier Six, he still found it hard to imagine: How was it done? Is this really something a person can do?

What can be certain is: A strong individual of the Realm of Magic absolutely doesn’t possess this level of great power. That is to say, no matter whether it was the Water God or the Fire God, they must have surpassed the Realm of Magic and reached some more profound realm.

"The question is..." Andrew’s face was somewhat sullen, "How could the Water God, who could create world after world, plus a Fire God whose single drop of blood almost overwhelmed me, have lost back then? Why was there a need to flee?"

"No, something’s not right!"

Andrew shook his head inwardly, "Perhaps they lost back then, but it wasn’t a flight. If it was merely to escape, there was no need to expend great effort to create a world, just run away?";

Back then, when the Water God brought the Water Mages to this Outer Battlefield she herself created, it wasn’t purely for fleeing!"

Thinking of this, Andrew fully operated his now-stable Tier Six power, infusing it into the Heavy Sword in his hand, simultaneously elevating the resonance between himself and the entire Outer Battlefield — or rather, the Water God Realm — to the limit through the Water God Mark!

Then Andrew finally discovered something: This Outer Battlefield, seemingly not as large as the Flame Realm, like a satellite of the Flame Realm, actually seemed to vaguely align with a particular spot on the Flame Realm, even transmitting a sense of "suppression"!

It’s almost like a sword hanging over the Flame Realm.

But this sword, in form, is a colossal planet, an artificially created world!

"This... this..."

Andrew was at a loss for words and didn’t know what he could say.

For a moment, he couldn’t precisely see what specific position the Water God Realm was targeting on the Flame Realm, instead instinctively positioning the Black Heavy Sword in his hand similarly.

It wasn’t traditional Water Magic, nor was it a Counterattack Technique, not even considered a proper attack...

Just positioned simply over there.

Immediately followed by three screams! The first two almost overlapped, with the last slightly delayed.

The first two screams were from the two approaching Flame Warriors.

One of them had the strength of a Tier Seven peak, while the other had just entered Tier Eight, slightly inferior to Liek but still formidable, and with the advantage of a surprise joint attack, they could have posed a real threat as Andrew was distracted.

Yet when Andrew lifted the Heavy Sword and simply positioned it forward—

It was as if infinite water pressure instantly acted on the two’s bodies, as if a world suddenly pressed down upon them! The screams actually lasted only half a sound before they abruptly ceased, as the two were crushed under the heavy pressure until they were unrecognizable.

The momentum of the Heavy Sword did not end there, following the stealth Water Magic covering the two Flame Warriors, tracing it back inversely, and then a shocked, extremely painful scream erupted somewhere in the Flame Warrior camp.

A traitorous Water Mage who had surrendered to the Flame Warriors widened his eyes, bleeding from his orifices, and toppled down.

The two ambushing Flame Warriors were severely wounded but not dead at the moment; this traitor, however, was instantly drained of all life force, already dead before collapsing.

The might of a single sword, to such an extent!

The field suddenly went quiet, even the breathing sounds were lighter, much less.

The Flame Warriors, after seeing Andrew defeat Liek, had already ceased their casual attitude. But seeing two fighters going to probe and getting slaughtered in such a brutal manner, the Flame Warriors still felt an indescribable horror.

Let alone the Flame Warriors, Andrew himself was startled by the situation before finally fully coming to his senses.

Then heard that female Warrior Chief coldly shout, "Take the Whale Eye now! Quick!"
