Chapter 700: The Real Goal?

The orange flame which covered the primeval firelord instantly lost color after the transparent pillar of light hit it and had turned into the darkest black, which seemed to be able to suck in all warmth and light.
The pillar of light dismissed into countless streams of rays and silver electric currents. They were everywhere. They were also so close to each other that they flowed unpredictably together and formed a creepy net, trapping the lord of fire within.
In such a dreamlike big net, everything had been frozen and been put into an incredible static state. It seemed that even the microscopic particles were no exception.
Once it started touching the surface flame surrounding the primeval firelord, the strange power had instantly snuck into its body by going underneath its demon scales.
The firelord had been put into a sheer static state as if someone had cast Advanced Time Stop. Suddenly, its body became transparent and its demon core was revealed – a cluster of fire that seemingly could burn forever.
The cluster of fire tried to resist the strange power. However, within a second, it had been totally frozen.
Meanwhile, the ocean of lava had lost its temperature although the fire was still raging. And a second later, the ocean had also been frozen and now looked mysteriously black.
Everything happened so fast that even Gonheim, “the Demogorgon of Darkness”, who had been watching the battlefield, was not able to help the firelord. It was already too late to do anything when Gonheim saw the pillar of ice hit the firelord. At that time, this level-three legendary demon lord had already fallen. The legendary spell that Lucien cast called Snow Goddess’s Forgiveness was totally strange to it. But the power of the spell even deeply thrilled him, although he was far away in Frozen Fortress!
The coldness had reached the limit of the world. Even Gonheim itself was in awe of the super low temperature! Having the power of frost and darkness and the gift from the abyss, it wasn’t until Gonheim became a top legendary that it finally approached the temperature limit.
Therefore, when it saw how the spell hit the primeval firelord and just removed the flames defense, Gonheim had given up any plans on saving the firelord.
The temperature which was above the absolute zero only by less than one degree could not exist any longer, as the whole world resisted it. In the Seething Ocean, everything started melting and soon the ice had all disappeared.
The firelord’s transparent body was still in the middle of the air, and its feet were on the flame ocean which just recovered. At this time, the scorching wind from the Seething Ocean blew the firelord’s body into fine particles and made them forever disappear in the world.
The primeval firelord’s life had finally come to its end, after so many years beyond counting!
BOOM!
In the middle of the Seething Ocean, a lava pillar gushed out and rose right into the air. The flame instantly boiled the entire demiplane!
Then the horrible lava pillar formed a new throne of flame in the air. All the senior fire spirits who were fighting against the senior ice spirits, snow elves, and frost giants looked back with their red eyes. The throne to them was the summoning from the abyss and the desire for killing. Whichever could defeat all the rivals at this time would become the new firelord and win the throne! The new firelord would also gain the entire power of the demiplane and be awarded by the Will of Abyss, although it would have to start from level-one legendary again.
In the storm, there were two figures. One was wearing a black double-breasted suit and a top hat with a silver pocket watch in his right hand, as if he was checking if it was too late for a party; the other had long, purple hair, and the silver armor she was wearing was shining in the cold gloss. In her right hand, there was an ordinary-looking sword, and in her left hand, there was a small black shield.
It was Lucien Evans and Natasha Violet!
In Frozen Fortress, sitting on the darkness throne, Gonheim’s eyes slightly squinted. And then it fiercely reached out its right hand as if it was trying to grab something in the front!
The air split because of this fierce grasp, and the Seething Ocean of flame appeared right in the front!
Although the firelord’s falling was totally unexpected, Gonheim’s plan would still carry on. At the very beginning, Gonheim never expected that the primeval firelord could stop Lucien Evans who was fully prepared. As there were only two paths after entering Chaotic Cosmos, Lucien must have been prepared for this, or he would have been a big idiot!
In Demogorgon of Darkness’s heart, the firelord’s falling was just an excuse. It needed an excuse to get involved to keep Lucien Evans busy for a while, and helping its subordinate was for sure one of the best, so its plan which required strict time order could be carried out successfully.
It was totally logical that the primeval firelord would stop any creatures from passing through the Seething Ocean because of its short temper, and as the firelord’s lord, Gonheim should be here to help. In this case, Lucien would take the difficulties for granted and would not be able to realize that these were all for preventing him from getting the Time Plate.
When Gonheim reached out its right hand, in the outer hall of Frozen Fortress, its good-looking face appeared on the crystal ice wall. Its two small demon horns were able to suck in all the light.
“I’ve given it some thought. Your offer isn’t great, but it’s better than nothing. The Time Plate isn’t of much help to me.” Gonheim said to the figure in the light.
Clement had come here this time in person. Although he made some preparations, in the hall of Frozen Fortress, when he was surrounded by the ice walls from all directions, he still felt very unsafe, and thus he kept hoping that he could leave this place as soon as possible. However, it took the Demogorgon of Darkness a total of ten minutes to reply!
Hearing the answer, Clement released a sigh of relief, “Your Excellency Demogorgon of Darkness, your decision is brilliant.”
If he had not been told that the new Demogorgon of Darkness was open to negotiation and trading, Clement would have never come to Desperate World. After all, this was home to this top legendary, and he might be killed at any time. It was known that the previous prince of demons was a bigger fan of killing and destroying than negotiation.
He had also prepared another plan if Gonheim did not agree. Then he would need to go through the Seething Ocean.
With the help of Gonheim, Clement jumped into Chaotic Cosmos.
......
The five hundred and fifty-fourth level of the abyss, the Seething Ocean.
The red sky split. A long and thin right hand with dark nails reached out, and boundless darkness followed.
The darkness was totally different from what Lucien had experienced before, even including the darkness from the previous prince of demons. This time the darkness was from the deepest place in the universe. It was the ultimate, sheer darkness. It was the ultimate coldness.
In some legends, when the entire world including the sky had come to its end, it was no volcanic eruption nor earth cracking nor flooding, but the land gradually losing its light and temperature and falling into the eternal darkness and coldness.
Later those who fancied the legends found their so-called theoretical support from the Congress of Magic’s thermodynamics study – heat death. Some orthodox arcanists were once concerned about this but then they found that the increase of entropy was obviously more troublesome, which seemingly indicated that the universe would finally reach its end.
In the darkness and coldness, the heavy storm was infuriated. It suddenly condensed into a small ball like the purest heart of ice and snow.
And then the small heart rushed at the boundless darkness with great momentum as if it was trying to freeze the darkness!
Gonheim sneered. No one could rival his control over super low temperature. It was not surprised by Ice and Snow Lady’s attack, who had been wanting its Frozen Fortress and the demon core for a very long time!
In the dark dialect, Gonheim cast the spell. In the deepest darkness, flashes of light lit up, and then the super low temperature beyond imagination was summoned. It seemed that the temperature could freeze anything from macro to micro.
This was a facility spell of Demogorgon of Darkness, and its power could only be fully used after the demogorgon reached top legendary. It was called Doomsday Cold.
At this time, Natasha fiercely slashed at the cold darkness with her Sword of Truth. And the silver sword light had arrived before the darkness could spread out further.
The light cut in the darkness, but soon it was frozen in it like a beautiful silver fish.
“Storm Barrier!” Lucien cast. His eye which was covered by the monocle reflected the storm and lightning.
Snow Goddess’s Forgiveness would not work very well on Demogorgon of Darkness which also had the same power, while the range of Eternal Blaze’s power was hard to control. Therefore, Lucien chose this legendary spell which could also create extreme high temperature.
BOOM!
The deafening thunder roared in the darkness and the lightning lit up the space. The formidable high temperature rose fiercely within the core of the extreme cold and absorbed the cold and darkness.
Gonheim sneered again, as any spells lower than top legendary level could not do much harm to him. Gonheim spoke the dark dialect again and the extreme cold had resumed its advantage.
At this time, the ice crystal suddenly exploded and the Ice and Snow Lady turned herself into the heavy storm again, which filled in the entire darkness. With all the power, the storm launched an onslaught against Demogorgon of Darkness!
Gonheim was a bit surprised by such a fierce attack. It seemed that Ice and Snow Lady was now exerting all the power because there were people helping. Suddenly, Gonheim felt that the darkness embracing Frozen Fortress started turning pale, and from the pale cloud appeared a monster in a black cloak. Any creatures which saw it would die, as it was death itself!
The monster, dragging the huge sickle, slashed at the Frozen Fortress. It was Apsis, “the Lord of Death”, “the Lord of Spectres”. It had been waiting for this chance to kill Demogorgon of Darkness and get the throne of prince of demons!
Gonheim had expected this. When feeling the extreme cold cast by Ice and Snow Lady, it had realized that the power of this extreme cold was not the real power from Silent Hell. Instead, someone had lent her the power of death and she had taken in the power into her own power of aurora. So the external silence and cold could be faked!
Therefore, Gonheim was well prepared for the arrival of Apsis, “the Lord of Death”!
At this time, however, at the edge of the Seething Ocean and the dark sky, a storm carrying flashes of lightning arrived. Within the storm, both extreme heat and severe cold existed!
Then countless light spots of elements appeared along with a song of praise, as if they were welcoming their own paradise. A gorgeous lady landed within the embrace of the light spots, but the look on her face was cold. She lifted her right hand and pointed, “Luxury Cracking!”
On the other side, the Seething Ocean was suddenly turned into an ordinary sea, and the surroundings had all been turned into real nature. Meanwhile, in the darkness, stars lit up and the almighty power fell onto the sea.
Gonheim was now totally shocked. It was Douglas, Hathaway, and Fernando!
Gonheim saw that Lucien, who was standing in front of him, bowed slightly at it as if he was bidding a farewell.
“Vengeful Gaze!” cast Lucien.
Gonheim’s mind went blank for a second and then it realized –
Lucien Evans’s aim was never Time Plate, but itself!
