Fantasy Dimension.
As the battle in the Shattering Annihilation Corridor erupted, the Eternity war in the Fantasy Dimension also intensified.
The World Tree was also a master of acting, deliberately feigning an angry expression of urgent need for rescue to mislead the Lord of Nightmares.
Seeing this, the latter couldn't help but devote more energy to the World Tree. While it seemed to have restrained the World Tree, it was actually restrained in return.
Initially, when the battle was in the favor of the God of War and the Infinite Serpent, the Lord of Nightmares was quite pleased with himself and even mocked the World Tree. However, as the Ancestral Tree of Destruction suddenly launched a backstab, the Lord of Nightmares' eyes darkened considerably.
When Lancelot stepped out of the World Tree and instantly crippled the God of Death with the power of the Four Swords of Immortal Slaying, the situation tilted against them once again. The Lord of Nightmares's eyes were filled with a deep, almost imperceptible, intensity.
In contrast, the World Tree became cheerful and chuckled, its laughter like a series of loud, clear sounds that slammed onto the nine snake faces of the Lord of Nightmares.
"Is this an operation you meticulously planned?" the Lord of Nightmares asked in a low voice, his tone extremely certain despite the question.
Now that things have come to this, there's no need to hide anything anymore. The World Tree shook its trunk, making a nodding gesture. "Nightmares, you shouldn't have let the Infinite Serpent and the White Feather of Time get involved in this. This time, you were wrong."
"Wrong? Hmph, until the very last moment, no one knows who will win or lose. You underestimate the God of War, World Tree." The Lord of Nightmares said coldly, still not giving up.
The World Tree frowned slightly upon hearing this.
God of War?
That's really tricky.
But given their demonstrated fighting prowess, are they still unable to turn the tide of the battle?
Unless Dax has some trump card up his sleeve?
Of course, it's also possible that the Nightmare Hydra is scaring itself and disrupting its own battle rhythm.
what to do?
The wise and prudent World Tree chose to ignore the Lord of Nightmares's words and leave the battle to the younger generation, such as Lancelot and the Ancestral Tree of Life.
Perhaps the God of War has some hidden methods, which explains why Lancelot and the Ancestral Tree of Life are no longer present?
Suppressing the chaotic thoughts surging in his mind, the World Tree focused entirely on fighting the Nightmare Hydra, preventing the latter from interfering in the battle taking place in the Shattering Annihilation Corridor.
The Lord of Nightmares snorted coldly, and the snake head in the middle raised its head and let out a long hiss. The sound waves pierced through the Fantasy Dimension, and soon a response came out.
First, a giant snake with azure scales poked its head out from somewhere. The proportions of the snake's head to its body were extremely strange. The length and size of its head accounted for more than half of its entire body. Its forked tongue flicked out, as if it wanted to devour the sky and the earth.
This is the World Serpent, the most powerful offspring of the Nightmare Hydra, even stronger than the Infinite Serpent. It is also a peak-level being of the Supreme God. It usually slumbers in the Primogenitor Mountain, and when it goes out, it is usually an avatar.
This time, however, the true form of the World Serpent was awakened by the Lord of Nightmares.
"Jörmungandr, go and devour the dimensional origin of the Flame Frost Continent."
The voice of the Lord of Nightmares rang in the ears of the World Serpent Jörmungandr. The World Serpent's huge, ferocious head nodded slightly, opened its fangs and bloody maw, and with a gentle bite, the Space-Time before it was easily torn apart. The shattered fragments of Space-Time naturally spun and evolved into a deep world passage.
With a flick of its thick tail, the World Serpent Jörmungandr transformed into a streak of blue light and disappeared into the void, traversing dimensions and Space-Time, heading towards the distant Flame Frost Continent.
Swish!!
A whooshing sound rang out, the space trembled, and the azure-gold branches lashed out, trying to block the World Serpent's teleportation, but failed.
The Lord of Nightmares had anticipated this, as the Fantasy Dimension was his stronghold, where he was even more powerful. He easily intercepted the World Tree's actions, allowing the World Serpent to successfully leave.
Seeing this, the World Tree remained calm.
He naturally saw that the World Serpent Jörmungandr was heading towards the Flame Frost Continent, and easily deduced its intentions: to relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao, and to strike where the enemy was forced to defend.
That's definitely a good solution.
As the most advanced plane, the Flame Frost Continent is capable of supporting two peak Astral Realm simultaneously, and its value is self-evident. It is even greater than the Peak Supreme God and can be compared with eleven-star Miracle Creation.
Even the Eternal who obtain such a world would not easily relinquish it, let alone the Supreme God.
For the Supreme God of the World System, the Flame Frost Continent is undoubtedly Eternity opportunity.
Jörmungandr, the World Serpent, is a true powerhouse within the World System, as his name suggests.
Its unique bloodline, like that of Chaos Realm Beast, allows it to move freely with its Inner Universe. Although its speed is much slower than that of other strong individuals of the same level, its combat power is absolutely terrifying when it carries its Inner Universe with it.
The difficulty for a powerful entity in World System to devour another world is certainly far lower than that for a powerful entity in Matter System or Law System.
The Nightmare Hydra's decision to send the World Serpent Jörmungandr to intervene likely stems not only from its intention to force Lancelot to retreat and protect the Flame Frost Continent, but also from its aim to lull the World Serpent into a period of dormancy, allowing it to devour the Frostfire's essence and strengthen its own Inner Universe.
Once Jörmungandr, the World Serpent who is himself Peak Supreme God, devours and completely digests the Flame Frost Continent, he will definitely accumulate enough foundation to challenge the Eternity Realm. If he really succeeds in ascending to Eternity, then Primogenitor Mountain will have two Eternal, and its status in the Astral Realm will inevitably increase dramatically. The Nightmare Hydra will also gain a great help.
"A good plan, but unfortunately, while there are powerful figures on Primogenitor Mountain, our World Alliance also has its own."
Whew!!
A ball of dark purple flame suddenly rose up, its nature extremely peculiar. As it merged into the void, it spread out strands of soul energy, weaving a large net that blocked the world passage opened by the World Serpent Jörmungandr.
Thump!!
The enormous, ferocious snake head crashed into the soul network and bounced back. Its snake eyes stared ahead, and a human man dressed in a well-fitting prison uniform came into view.
The World Serpent Jörmungandr's serpentine eyes narrowed sharply, and he spoke in a deep, gruff voice, "It's you... the Seventh Warden."
"Good day, esteemed Mr. Jörmungandr." The human man known as the Seventh Warden smiled politely and bowed slightly, displaying utmost courtesy.
Seeing this, the World Serpent Jörmungandr's expression became even more solemn. He subconsciously swept his entire body with his spiritual will, and sure enough, he found tiny, extremely faint flames of his soul burning weakly in the gaps between his scales.
These sparks of soul are rooted in the body, soul, and Inner Universe of the World Serpent Jörmungandr. They may seem insignificant, but they are constantly splitting and growing at an astonishing rate.
From the moment the World Serpent Jörmungandr discovered the Soul Flame to the moment he began to extinguish it, the fire had already spread like wildfire, surging and raging.
The Soul Controller, the Seventh Warden, is one of the Peak Supreme God of the Astral Realm. A survivor of a Destruction civilization, he single-handedly exacted Revenge and became a lone wolf. He wields the Soul Flame and is an expert at manipulating souls.
