In the Fire Elemental Plane, a magnificent fire Fenghuang with feathers composed entirely of pure flame suddenly froze into an ice sculpture while in flight. This was because the inextinguishable flames on its body began to absorb heat, turning the flames icy cold—a contradictory sight so jarring it sent chills down one's spine.
In the Water Elemental Plane, a water giant with water dragon pillars wrapped around his body solidified into a crystal sculpture during his furious charge, as the water on his body and inside his body stopped flowing, as if a pause button had been pressed.
In the Wind Elemental Plane, wind spirits fell from the sky like stones. Because the air had become heavier than mountains, their once light and agile bodies now staggered and moved slowly.
In the Earth Elemental Plane, the Earth Elemental Elder watched his rocky body gradually become transparent and disappear, letting out a silent roar. Unfortunately, he was gradually disappearing, along with his voice and existence.
And this is just the beginning.
Almost simultaneously with the Elemental Furnace tearing apart the Elemental Dimension.
The Weave then began to encroach upon them.
A jagged, deep chasm suddenly appeared in the sky of the Elemental Dimension.
It wasn't a crack, nor a collapse, but rather the entire sky seemed to be grabbed at both ends by an invisible giant hand and violently torn apart in opposite directions.
There was no blood flowing from the wound in the sky, only Endless, cold, orderly silver grid gushing out wildly from the crack.
That was Mystra's Weave.
It is also the Weave of the spellcaster group.
The Weave descends, not through gentle coverage, but through violent implantation.
Each of its grid lines is like a living dimensional blood vessel, larger than a mountain range in diameter, with unnatural Magic Runes flowing across its surface. When they emerge from the cracks, they emit a tearing sound of laws that can be heard throughout the entire dimension—the screams of the fundamental rules of the Elemental Dimension being forcibly altered.
In the Fire Elemental Plane, 36,000 main Weave veins, like giant silver spears, pierce through the Eternity burning sea of flames. Wherever the veins pass, the chaotic and Berserk flames are forcibly "tamed," transforming into "standard magical flames" with fixed frequencies and controllable wavelengths. Ancient Lava behemoths attempt to impact the veins with trillions of tons of magma, but the veins absorb their energy, transforming it back into cold, geometric crystal mountains.
In the Water Elemental Plane, the Weave expands in a spherical shape, with each node being a miniature Black Hole that devours the essence of primordial water. The freely flowing river of consciousness is cut into blocks, and the water flow within each block can only move according to the vortex pattern prescribed by the grid.
A self-aware tsunami attempts to resist, but is reverse-analyzed the instant it hits the grid—the entire existence of the tsunami is disassembled into basic water flow formulas and then erased.
In the Wind Elemental Plane, the Weave directly rewrites the laws of physics. The free storms are forcibly "paused," and lightning must travel along the shortest path between grid nodes. The powerful thunder giant Aoluomu, his body spanning three storm clouds, attempts to tear apart a main grid line. However, the grid line twists in reverse, cutting into his energy body like surgical sutures, and begins to systematically format his consciousness.
First, it deprived people of their freedom of flight, then it deprived them of their sound, and finally it deprived them of the concept of "storm" itself. Thirty seconds later, Aoluomu disintegrated into a docile mass of airflow that flowed according to a sine wave pattern.
In the Earth Elemental Plane, Weave erupted from the Earth's core, forcibly dividing the entire continent into standard hexagonal plots with a silver grid. Mountains were flattened to a uniform elevation, and mineral veins were rearranged into magical arrays.
The ancient leyline titans, whose bodies are ancient beings that are part of a continuous mountain range, are pinned to the earth by hundreds of grid lines.
The grid began extracting his "memory of the earth," those geological layers accumulated over hundreds of millions of years, which were peeled off, scanned, and transformed into a standardized geological database.
The Elemental Furnace and the Weave worked together to seize the initiative almost instantly at the start of the battle, leaving the elemental beings completely stunned.
Inside the Arcane Council Hall, the Magic Pioneer, the Goddess of the Weave, the God of Wisdom, and the nine Grand Sage all looked out the window. There, beneath the Immortal Continent, seven new torrents of energy were surging from the depths of the Void —life force that once belonged to the Elemental Dimension had now become the blood flowing through the Federation's veins.
"The Tier One of the operation went smoothly, just as we had anticipated. The Elemental Dimension had been peaceful and tranquil for too long, and the elemental lifeforms believed they were protected by the Astral Realm Will and would not suffer any harm. However, they did not understand that the world is in constant flux, anything can happen, and even the Astral Realm itself could collapse and perish."
The God of Wisdom, Angley, spoke in an icy tone, as if frost were spreading out, sending a chill through the entire Arcane Council Hall.
"We must not be careless," the Magic Pioneer said.
"The most troublesome beings in the Elemental Dimension are the four Elemental Lord, and that Lord of the Boundless, the King of Elements."
"The four Elemental Lord are all equivalent to Peak Supreme God, Lord of the Boundless, the King of Elements, possesses Eternity- level combat power. They also have a vast army of elemental life forms. In critical moments, they can rapidly cultivate elemental life forms and violently enhance their power by consuming the primal power of the original Elemental Pool."
Upon hearing this, the Grand Sage, the Dean, and other figures who had just been beaming with pride because of the successful Tier One the operation, and who had even thought that the Elemental Dimension was nothing special, immediately became serious. They continued to watch the battle with full concentration, their Magical Energy surging within them, ready to personally join the fight at any moment.
As the Magic Pioneer predicted, the violent upheavals in the elemental planes awakened the four Elemental Lord from their slumber.
Rumble!!
Violent tremors erupted across the boundless continents of the Earth Elemental Plane.
A massive mountain hand burst forth from the earth, Lord of Earth Granite slowly rose to his feet.
He is like a walking Epic of the earth, normally a crystal giant 150,000 meters tall, his body composed of seven different mineral layers, each layer recording a geological era.
The head resembles that of a crowned emperor, with the crown being a still-growing cluster of crystals. The face is a smooth obsidian surface, with only two bottomless holes serving as "eyes."
The torso features the Heart of the Ley Lines embedded in its chest—a constantly pulsating amber core that triggers small earthquakes with each pulsation. The left arm is the "Hand of Eternity," composed of diamond crystals, while the right arm is the "Hand of Forging," a mixture of basalt and Lava.
Its legs are like the foundation of a mountain range, automatically connecting with the earth's veins when it stands. When the Lord of Earth roars, it is like a mixture of millions of rocks rubbing together and crystals growing, shaking the world.
"Elemental Furnace, Weave!! Adrian Federation, you filthy and despicable spellcasters, how dare you invade the Elemental Dimension, you deserve to die!!"
The roar was muffled, like countless earthquakes erupting simultaneously.
The Lord of Earth's height skyrocketed to the million-meter level, and a miniature map of the entire Plane of Earth appeared on its skin. It opened its mouth and spewed out thousands of rotating stone spheres.
These stone spheres instantly disintegrated, turning into imperceptible dust. Wherever they passed, everything was being torn apart and shattered, including space, time, cause and effect, Fate, and so on. Nothing could withstand such extreme destructive power. The Weave was even directly torn open, creating a huge gap. The earth elemental beings, who were about to lose their sense of existence, broke free from their half-dead state and awoke. They roared and ran wildly across the earth, spontaneously forming a terrifying array that sealed off the earth, unleashing a series of earth-shattering leyline fluctuations.
Before the battle began, no one would have imagined that among the four Elemental Lord, the Lord of Earth was the most terrifying in terms of lethality and destructive power.
The other three monarchs also awoke almost simultaneously, with the Lord of Fire, Ignios, resembling a living flame of creation.
His body was only five meters tall, taking the form of a humanoid flame. His outline was constantly changing, and his core was a blazing white temperature. The outer layer gradually turned into gold, orange, red, black... The Lord of Fire had no fixed physical form, but even a single wisp of flame was enough to support physical interaction. The face formed by the flames changed constantly, reflecting his current emotions—when angry, it turned into a roaring lion's head, and when calm, it turned into a peaceful human face.
At this moment, it naturally resembles an angry Lion.
Suspended on his chest Seed of Immortality —a singularity like a black sun, absorbing all light and heat without releasing it, constantly expanding and propelling the Lord of Fire to move rapidly. His movement trajectory left behind an inextinguishable "conceptual ember," which could exist for tens of thousands of years. The crackling sound of the flames burning, combined with a deep resonance similar to flowing Lava, echoed outwards. Countless flames were compressed into a platinum-gold blaze three meters high, burning fiercely and rising straight into the sky.
The surging heat instantly destroyed the concept of "entropy reduction" that countless fire elemental beings had been forcibly given by the Weave and the Elemental Furnace, making them scorching and volatile once again.
Splash!
The sound of rushing water transcends Space-Time.
The Lord of Water is like a flowing, female, humanoid body of water, its transparency changing with its emotions. Countless fragments of memory can be seen swimming like schools of fish within her body. It is not made of ordinary water, but rather "the liquid that carries memories"—each drop storing a piece of history.
The water's surface reflects the observer's deepest memories. It has no fixed facial features, and the Eye of the Abyss rotates in its abdomen. A reverse vortex connects all the memory banks of the Plane of Water. The Lord of Water's body can change its density at will, from mist to ultra-dense water comparable to diamond. What is most moving is her voice, which is like a mixture of tides, rivers, raindrops, and echoes from the Abyss, with its own ethereal resonance.
However, at this moment, the Lord of Water was no longer the lady she usually was; she had fallen into a state of rage, and countless invisible streams of water surged forth, with all bodies of water becoming extensions of her senses.
Countless streams of water combined to form a network, uniting all the water elemental life forms in the entire Plane of Water. The surging Water of Life, carrying freedom and vitality, shattered the "rigid" concept implanted by the Adrian Federation in one fell swoop, and then stirred up towering waves that crashed against the Weave in the sky.
Also attacking was the last Elemental Lord, the Lord of Wind Zephyriel.
The flowing cyan robe and the deep darkness beneath the hood floated simultaneously. Each of the Berserk wind blades possessed the ability to Teleportation. The sound waves, pieced together from countless fragments of sound, resembled the roars of countless people in different Space-Time, becoming a "storm of will" that covered the entire battlefield. While tearing apart the concept of "mass" implanted in the wind elemental life form, it also wanted to rip the annoying Weave in the sky to shreds in one fell swoop.
Faced with the fierce counterattack of the four Elemental Lord.
The Elemental Furnace and the Weave have also entered a mode of law collision.
in short.
The Weave is responsible for defense.
The Elemental Furnace is responsible for the attack.
Faced with the counterattack led by the four Elemental Lord and their elemental beings, the Goddess of the Weave displayed her iron fist of order.
Overall, the Goddess of the Weave adopts a macro-level defense strategy.
When the Berserk power of the four Elemental Lord swept in like Astral Realm tsunami, the Goddess of the Weave did not choose to confront them head-on with energy, as that would be an inefficient war of attrition.
Her defense strategy is essentially a systemic dimensional reduction attack, forcibly incorporating the primordial, chaotic, and uncontrollable elements into a computable, manageable, and optimizable closed system.
The operation of the Goddess of the Weave Mystra follows a cold, core logic: all phenomena are data, and all power is programmable.
The right approach is to treat the root cause.
While the power of a single element, when developed to its extreme, is certainly terrifying, a closer analysis reveals that its weaknesses have not been completely eliminated, but rather hidden.
At this point, as long as a targeted solution is provided, the goal can be easily achieved.
Of course, this is on the premise that you are strong enough and, like the Goddess of the Weave, possess special weapons for attacking elemental life forms.
Weave!!
Ultimately, the Weave is the key.
In response to the attack by the Lord of Fire, the Goddess of the Weave adopted the strategy of "Conceptual Cage".
The Lord of Fire unleashes pure, Berserk flames that incinerate everything; it burns not only matter, but also the "will to fight," the "possibility of defense," and even the "flow of time" itself.
The first step in the Goddess of the Weave's defense is phenomenon isolation.
Mystra stretched out her slender fingers and gently hooked them, like a spider queen coiled in the center of a web probing for prey. The entire Weave Weave and rippled, and then a "logic vacuum layer" wove around itself.
Within this area, the definition of "combustion" is temporarily suspended. Flames of various colors still exist visually, but they have lost the substance of "combustion," cannot trigger a chain reaction, cannot transfer heat energy, and cannot change the state of matter.
The Berserk flames transformed into a still, harmless "portrait of fire."
At this point, the Goddess of the Weave, Mystra, took the second step – the redirection of energy.
The Goddess of the Weave extended countless microscopic conduits from the Weave, piercing every energy node of the flames released by the Lord of Fire and countless fire elemental beings.
It's not absorption, but a forced rerouting.
The energy flow of the flame is directed into a pre-set circular circuit.
Within the circuit, energy circulates according to the frequency and waveform set by the Weave.
The more Berserk the Lord of Fire's offensive, the faster the energy circulates in the circuit, eventually forming a perfect, self-sustaining energy gyroscope.
No matter how many flames there are, as long as they don't exceed a certain threshold, they can't damage the Weave at all.
The third step involves the Goddess of the Weave using the "Fire Concept Formatting" method.
The Weave trembled once more, injecting the "Order Definition Package" into the core of the overwhelming flames.
"Flame combustion" has been redefined as an "orderly energy transfer reaction chain." The principle can be simply understood as turning the nuclear bomb that the enemy throws at you into your own nuclear reactor.
Hmm... that's very abstract and unscientific.
But isn't that magical?
