The Mountain Range Guardian stood beside the spatial rift, constantly waving his staff to restore the environment that had been ravaged by the oppressive force emanating from the Earth Giant.
He somewhat regretted not opening the spatial passage wider back then, which made it difficult for the Earth Giant to enter. In the struggle against the will of the Gnoll World, it caused considerable damage to the Wizard World, forcing him to repair it bit by bit.
The wizard army, which had retreated more than ten kilometers, stopped in its tracks. Here, they were finally no longer enveloped by the violent field of the Stigmata Wizard.
The formations that had been practiced for so long were completely disrupted. Wizards, Wizard Apprentice, and Gulu Beast were all mixed up together, looking as chaotic as refugees fleeing a disaster.
No one reprimanded them, nor did anyone shout for them to return to formation. At that moment, they all stared wide-eyed at the Stigmata Wizard tearing a spatial rift in the distance!!!
This was the first time they had witnessed the immense power of Stigmata Wizard. His enormous figure resembled a giant who had created the world, his hands supporting a three-hundred-meter spatial rift, and his hissing roar was a declaration of war against the entire world!
He seemed to be the center of the entire world, the ultimate form of life evolution. Hurricanes of destruction were his silhouette, and elemental tides rose and fell with his every breath. Before such a giant, these weak wizards and apprentices seemed to have no need for any other superfluous behavior but to worship him madly!
"Dean... you've advanced to Stigmata?"
Countless wizards murmured the same words at the same time. They all knew who their headmaster was; he was their ancestor, a great figure who had given everything for humanity.
Previously, they hadn't known and thought their dean was plotting something against them, but after verifying the information with Meng Jie, all the wizards wished they could kneel before their dean and repent.
Repent for their previous despicable thoughts!
Everyone here knows the hardships their Dean has endured. As Level Three Great Wizard, he rules over such a vast area and trains so many people, suffering countless humiliations in the process—a burden they can hardly comprehend.
But there's no way around it; weakness is the original sin.
They are too weak. They only have a thousand Official Wizard, not even a single Level Two Wizard. What can they do with such limited strength?
But things are different now.
Their dean, their ancestor, became Stigmata Wizard!
Countless people want to shout, want to tell everyone, that their ancestor became Stigmata Wizard.
Everything they had endured was now in the past. Before them lay an unimaginable, vast future, and the true era of humanity on the New Earth had finally arrived!
The wizards from the New Earth were cheering and rejoicing, but to the two thousand wizards of the Undying Body Academy, the giant in the distance was terrifying.
A true form 250 meters tall—is this really someone who just advanced to the Stigmata Level?
If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it no matter who told them. This didn't seem like someone who had just advanced; it was more like a highly skilled Stigmata Wizard had been advanced for thousands of years!
"Dean, please inform the Undying Body immediately!"
Vice Dean Hansiba, standing beside Roderick, spoke to Roderick in an almost trembling voice.
None of them could have imagined that this Level Three Legendary Great Wizard would advance to the Stigmata so quickly.
Advancing to the Stigmata means that everything will change, and they must inform the Undying Body to prepare for the change.
They used to be able to communicate with Master Leo, but now that the 250-meter-tall true form has been revealed, they no longer have the capacity to do so.
Especially for Roderick, six years ago he almost got into a fight here with Leo was only a level three at the time!
"Yes, yes, yes."
Roderick was still reeling from the shock of the terrifying giant in the distance when he heard Hansiba's reminder and immediately came to his senses.
With the arrival of the Stigmata Wizard at the Leo Wizard Academy, everything is about to change. Whether it's the previous cooperation or the future relationship between the two families, decisions will need to be made by the Undying Body.
Soon, Roderick made contact with the Undying Body through special means, which immediately shocked the Undying Body.
The speed of advancement is too fast. For a normal wizard, advancing three levels in over a thousand years is already considered a very good progress.
Leo actually completed the Stigmata advancement in the time it took others to advance three levels!
This isn't just a legend, it's a miracle!
The Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard initially didn't believe it, but after Roderick sent over the video of the terrifying giant tearing apart a spatial rift, the Undying Body completely believed it!!
Amidst cheers of surprise, the Undying Body severed its connection with its headmaster. Before hanging up, it simply informed its academy wizards that they should follow the instructions of Wizard Li Xi, the Holy Mark Wizard, without needing to overthink it.
The Earth Giant, tearing a spatial rift in the distance, disregarded the shock and surprise of the wizard army after witnessing his ascension to the Stigmata, and was using all his strength to squeeze into the Gnoll World.
The more the body penetrates, the greater the resistance becomes; the whole world seems to be blocking his entry!
However, as the Earth Giant continued to exert its power, its upper body completely entered the spatial rift, leaving only its last leg remaining in the Wizard World.
"Boom"
With the Earth Giant exerting its strength, the last leg was Earth Giant up and entered the spatial rift, thus completing the Earth Giant's invasion of the Gnoll World!
The entire process took less than fifteen minutes, so simple that Leo could hardly believe it!
That makes sense. The God of Gnoll is dead; how can this tiny, miniature world possibly withstand us?
The Earth Giant, speaking respectfully through the spatial rift to the Mountain Range Guardian Garijivich, said, "My lord, please fix the spatial passage again so that my army can enter."
"Can."
The Mountain Range Guardian came along to clean up the mess; Leo would have done these things even if he hadn't asked.
"Thank you, sir."
The spatial passage was torn apart when the Earth Giant ripped open the spatial rift and must be rebuilt.
Leo doesn't have the ability right now, so he can only turn to the Mountain Range Guardian for help.
Seeing the Mountain Range Guardian readily agree, Leo whispered to the distant wizard army, "The army will enter according to the war plan, Gnoll World will tremble beneath our feet!"
"Yes, Stigmata Wizard!"
Upon hearing Leo's words, all the wizards and Gulu Beast were filled with excitement, eager to immediately storm into the Gnoll World, capture each Gnoll, and lock them in the cages that had been prepared long ago.
Without the World Lord, the Dean even advanced to the Stigmata, easily conquering the tiny Gnoll World!
What was originally a do-or-die war is now a war they are absolutely certain of winning. Glory and military exploits are already within their grasp!
Leo ignored the wizard army; the war plan was perfect, and all he had to do was execute it.
His advancement to Stigmata was merely a slight modification to the original plan, aimed at accelerating the war's progress!
Void lightning crackled around him, relentlessly striking the Earth Giant, attempting to kill this invading World Lord.
The rules of the Gnoll World descended, attempting to suppress the strength of Leo, the Stigmata Wizard. Unfortunately, the rules, also originating from the Wizard World, prevented the Gnoll World's Power of Laws from diminishing Leo's strength in the slightest.
Facing the lightning striking him, Leo snorted coldly, his face flashing with impatience. His body trembled slightly, and a violent aura exploded out. Not only the surrounding void lightning, but even the ground beneath his feet was shaken open with long cracks.
Under Leo's murderous gaze, the Gnoll World trembled slightly, as if from the terrified tremor of the World Will.
With the Void Lightning gone, the Earth Giant are no longer under attack, and the Gnoll World Will is terrified!
He was terrified of this life form from a powerful world!
The Earth Giant's eyes swept across, it identified a direction, and with a light tap of its foot, it vanished before the spatial rift.
Although the evolution of Shadow Space and shadows is not yet complete, Shadow Walking has already evolved.
One step is 100 kilometers. With the 95% boost from the Godslaying Set, the maximum distance Shadow Walking in one step is 195 kilometers, which is almost 200 kilometers.
As for the mana consumed by Shadow Walking, Leo no longer felt it; the mana consumed was not even as fast as his own mana could regenerate.
Furthermore, he has achieved nuclear fusion, and his body can continuously generate energy. Just like the Earth Giant with his feet firmly planted on the ground, he has inexhaustible energy.
Nuclear fusion is known as an inexhaustible source of energy, and Leo can continuously generate small-scale nuclear fusion to provide the energy his body needs.
Even with all Seven Great Domains activated, without external energy supply, Leo alone could sustain this for a very long time.
After advancing to the Stigmata, he was able to completely escape the embarrassing situation of never having enough mana.
In this situation, Leo doesn't need to worry about mana consumption at all. He can use Shadow Walking to move freely, and his speed is second only to teleportation and long-distance space jump.
Leo took a step that covered two hundred kilometers, emerged from the shadows to glance at the landmark, and then continued onward.
Yaoyao returned to the Shadow World, saying she was going to prepare a congratulatory gift for Leo's promotion. Leo was very much looking forward to this gift.
This gift dates back to a thousand years ago in the Rota World.
At that time Yaoyao took away a shadow.
When Leo asked him what he wanted the shadow for, Yaoyao didn't say a word. In the end, she only told Leo that he would become the one who would reap the greatest rewards in the Rota World.
Leo failed to use the privileges of the First-Class Wizard Medal, and all his gains were lost to the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard.
As for when we'll know the details of how that shadow was used, we'll only know when Leo advances to the Stigmata.
At the time, Leo was only at level two and thought that the Stigmata was very far beyond his reach, so he didn't pay much attention to this matter.
But now that he had reached the Stigmata, and remembering Yaoyao Yao's promise, Leo's heart burned with excitement.
He will be the biggest beneficiary of the Rota World; what exactly will this gift be?
