As Weave built by manipulating elemental power, it possesses unparalleled power to restrain the elements themselves.
Under the influence of the Weave, the concept of "Infinity spread" of fire power was modified to "thermal energy circulation within Finite Space".
The Lord of Fire eventually realized that he was no longer releasing power, but providing fuel for a heating module of the Weave. His defenses were immediately breached, and his anger turned into fuel, spewing out even more ferocious streams of fire. Unfortunately, it was useless; he couldn't Magic Break network's defenses, at least not for the time being.
The Lord of Fire was struck by a mental attack, while the other three Elemental Lord fared much better.
To deal with the Lord of Earth, the Goddess of the Weave chose "topology reconstruction" as her response.
Aside from those explosive attacks that could tear everything apart with their "Rending Earth Vein Wave".
The Lord of Earth also awakened the wrath of mass itself, and the material foundation of the entire plane began to rebel. Gravity became a noose, density became a blade, and continental plates tore at the foundation of the Weave like living creatures.
The Goddess of the Weave's solution was to grid the space. The boundless Weave instantly decomposed the three-dimensional space of the affected area into trillions of standard cubic units. Each unit was given an independent coordinate system and physical parameters. The Lord of Earth's "holistic power" was forcibly discretized. The combined force that could have torn the continent apart was dispersed into countless tiny units, each unit unable to withstand the force to lift a single grain of sand.
In addition, the Weave also used gravity field programming capabilities to rewrite the local gravity laws. The direction of gravity acting on all matter no longer points to the Earth's center, but is perpendicular to the nearest Weave grid line.
As a result, the mountains that were trying to crush the Weave suddenly found themselves "downward" but had become horizontal, and they began to collapse laterally, crashing down on their own kind.
The Lord of Earth's control over quality turned into self- Destruction chaos, resulting in a state of internal conflict.
But even more ruthless things were yet to come. Mystra issued standardized "material state commands" through the Weave, and streams of light burst forth. Like the hand of God, they possessed the magnificent power to change the rules. The Berserk Lava was forcibly cooled into a crystalline structure, the flying sand and stones were solidified into geometric sculptures, and the churning earth crust was frozen into a static relief.
In the span of three breaths, the entire Earth Elemental Plane battlefield transformed into a massive, intricate material model sandbox—everything was fixed in its most stable state.
Mystra, the Goddess of the Weave, showed no mercy to the Lord of Water, who was also a woman.
The Lord of Water summons the tides of the Void, and what she wants to submerge is not only space, but also the existence of the Weave. The eyes of the Water Abyss open, causing everything to slide into the void Abyss of nothingness that "never existed".
The solution to the Goddess of the Weave Mystra is Existence Anchoring.
She made every node in the Weave emit an "Existence Confirmation Pulse".
This is a special magical fluctuation that lies between the levels of energy and spirit. The pulses form an interwoven network, mathematically proving that the Weave structure within this region "truly exists."
It is worth mentioning that the Adrian Federation has a wide range of expertise in mathematics, philosophy, and theology, and has studied them to an extremely high level.
Magical civilization, technological civilization, and even divine civilization are not diametrically opposed, but rather mutually integrated and mutually reinforcing.
The actions of the Goddess of the Weave have turned the Lord of Water's erosion into a logical paradox; what she seeks to erase is being constantly confirmed by countless rigorous mathematical proofs.
These mathematical formulas, composed of pure Magic Runes, are not ethereal words of knowledge, but a true form of power—something capable of leveraging immense power.
Therefore, the Lord of Water is essentially fighting against a self-consistent axiomatic system.
Faced with the well-prepared Adrian Federation, the entire Elemental Dimension was on the defensive; their reaction was far too slow.
For areas already corrupted by the Lord of Water, the Weave activates a "Real-Time Backup Protocol." The complete information of the structure about to be annihilated is compressed into a data packet and transmitted to a secure node just before it is destroyed.
At the same time, Weave redefines the concept of "emptiness" in the void; it is no longer "nothingness," but rather "a data storage medium in a state to be written."
The power of the Ruins Tide unleashed by the Lord of Water was distorted from "erasure" into "formatting".
The Weave even generates a layer of defense at the boundary. "Any attack that attempts to deny the existence of this barrier must first acknowledge its existence; otherwise, it cannot be used as a target."
However, once the existence of this barrier is acknowledged, the attack automatically becomes ineffective, because its purpose is to deny existence. This puts the Lord of Water in a predicament of self-referentiality, and her power begins to dissolve itself the moment it touches the barrier's logic.
In terms of the power to manipulate the rules, Mystra, the Goddess of the Weave, might rank among the top in the entire Astral Realm.
Because she is not only good at using rules, but her own existence, the "Weave," is also constantly creating and establishing rules; in fact, she is the rules themselves.
This is fully demonstrated in the defense against the counterattacks of the four Elemental Lord.
Compared to the other three monarchs, the Lord of Wind also suffered a head-on blow, his gentle breeze hitting a brick wall.
The Lord of Wind's storm, each wisp strong enough to cleave the dimensional walls, also contains the power of Teleportation. This is not Teleportation within the universe, but Space-Time Teleportation that can break through the distance of Space-Time and the difference in dimensions.
Furthermore, the Lord of Wind controls the turbulent storm of possibility itself; every gust of wind carries Infinity possibilities, and every flow is simultaneously an attack and not an attack, breaking the chain of cause and effect.
Like an overwhelming hail of bullets, there was no way to resist.
Faced with this offensive, the Goddess of the Weave, Mystra, smiled slightly and said that it was nothing and could be resolved with a simple gesture.
Weave excels at handling this kind of group attack.
Mystra simply extended her hand gently, palms facing each other, then slowly separating, allowing the Weave to unfold an "Absolute Observer Domain" in all conflict areas. Within this domain, all quantum superposition states were forcibly collapsed into a single definite state.
The Lord of Wind's "both yes and no" attack was forcibly defined as "either yes or no," which is equivalent to changing from a scattered, radial attack into a predictable, straightforward one.
Like countless rays of light passing through a lens and merging into one.
Furthermore, the direction of this ray of light is determined by the random number generator of the Weave.
As a result, 99% of the Lord of Water's attacks were judged as "not attacks" and dissipated directly, while the remaining 1% were easily predicted and fell into the standard defense process, thus being resisted.
Even more ruthless, the Goddess of the Weave transformed moments of time from flowing river water into still frames of images.
Each frame lasts for an extremely subtle period of time, and the connection between frames is determined by the Weave. The Lord of Wind's bizarre characteristic of "existing at all points in time" is cut into a series of discrete, isolated moments.
His power was trapped in the cracks of time, unable to form a coherent offensive. Under the temporary laws promulgated by the Weave, any movement within the region that did not conform to the required laws would be automatically corrected, either by adjusting the parameters to conform to the equations or by being forcibly stopped.
The free and unrestrained wind is most afraid of becoming stagnant.
The wind element decays much faster than any other element.
Shackled by the rules of the Weave, even the attacks launched by the Lord of Wind can only flow along the approved curves.
The counterattack of the four Elemental Lord was thus easily resisted by the Goddess of the Weave, Mystra.
This shows just how powerful this Goddess of the Weave is.
If I had known, those were four Peak Supreme God.
However, the Goddess of the Weave, who was also Peak Supreme God, single-handedly took it down, and did so effortlessly, even appearing to be in complete control.
While the Weave's ability to restrain elemental life forms certainly plays a role, Mystra's own excellence and power should not be underestimated.
"Damn it, Mystra is too familiar with the workings of elemental power. We are full of weaknesses in front of her, and she can launch targeted attacks. We must change this situation to reverse our current decline!" the Lord of Fire roared.
When will the king recover?
"The Adrian Federation's intervention, with the Elemental Furnace appearing out of nowhere, must have been authorized by the Magic Pioneer. This Eternal is likely watching us from the shadows. Even if we can defeat the Goddess of the Weave, who will deal with the Pioneer?" The Lord of Wind's voice carried a mournful howl.
"Although I have used the Wind of Freedom to transmit the distress message across the Elemental Dimension through the Wind Elemental Plane, reinforcements will take time to arrive, and we ourselves must hold on."
The Lord of Earth replied in a deep, rumbling voice, "The origin of the Plane of Chaos is rapidly reviving. I can already sense the King's presence. The King seems to be confronting the Magic Pioneer in a Space-Time dimension that we haven't discovered."
"Alright, we can't interfere in battles at the Eternal level. Quickly use our combined attacks to repel the Goddess of the Weave and tear this damned network apart!!" The Lord of Water had also become extremely agitated. This wasn't her true nature, but rather a change that occurred after her own path and concept of existence were distorted by the Goddess of the Weave, Mystra.
The "combined attack technique" mentioned by the Lord of Water is Combat Skills that the four Elemental Lord have possessed since their birth and has been honed and strengthened over millions of years.
"Combined attack techniques" are divided into different levels.
Binary, tri-elemental, and ultimate combo attacks.
The dual-elemental combo attack, as the name suggests, can be activated by two Elemental Lord.
For example, the "Earth-Fire Combined Attack: Molten Core Starburst" launched jointly by the Lord of Earth and the Lord of Fire.
This is a purely destructive attack.
Once activated, a pure white beam of light will shoot into the sky. Wherever the beam passes, matter will directly sublimate into a plasma state, creating a permanent "elemental void" within the barrier. For millions of years to come, no elemental reactions will be able to occur in this area. The peak temperature will be equivalent to the core of Void star. A side effect is concept burning; targets hit will have their "life concept" ignited, continuously losing their "life essence."
Once, two monarchs used this combined attack technique in the Abyss. At that time, a sun suddenly rose in the Abyss, and after the explosion, a perfectly smooth glass plain was left in the center of the battlefield, its surface reflecting the distorted Abyss.
Later, many Lava planes gradually evolved, and a very famous elemental Demon Race was born.
The combined power of two Elemental Lord is enough to make countless demons tremble, let alone the combined attack of four Elemental Lord at the same time.
This is what's known as the "ultimate elemental combo attack" —Elemental Samsara!!
After exchanging messages, the four Elemental Lord immediately began their operation without delay.
The four monarchs soared into the sky in four different directions.
In the north dwells Granite, the Lord of Earth, beneath whose feet rises a crystal throne.
To the south lies Ignios, the Lord of Fire, with a fiery magic circle unfolding beneath his feet.
The East is ruled by Salacia, the Lord of Water, from beneath him a circular curtain of water.
The west is ruled by Zephyriel, the Lord of Wind, and a vacuum realm forms around it.
Immediately afterwards, streams of essential energy elements shot out from the chests of each monarch, converging at the center point, with the colors of the energy streams clearly distinguished.
The amber-colored pulsating beam represents the earth element, the pure white spiral beam represents the fire element, the deep blue undulating beam represents the water element, and the cyan particle beam represents the wind element.
The four beams merged into one, converging at the center point.
At the center point, a chaotic energy sphere with a diameter of three meters forms, within which the birth and Destruction of micro- Elemental Dimension can be seen.
Then, the four Elemental Lord simultaneously chanted their respective elemental mantras.
Lord of Earth, Granite: "In the name of the Eternity Mountains, I have given you form."
Lord of Fire, Ignios: "In the name of the fire of creation, I bestow upon you a soul."
Lord of Water, Salacia: "In the name of the River of Origin, I bestow upon you this body."
Zephyriel, Lord of Wind: "In the name of the free verse, I give you my will."
Then, the chaotic energy sphere began to stabilize, and reliefs of the four elemental planes appeared on its surface.
The four monarchs bowed simultaneously to the center, and the energy sphere was compressed to the size of a fist, its color turning into pure colorless and transparent—that was the "zero point state of the elements."
A completely emotionless voice descended from the sky. "Approved!!"
That was a fluctuation of the will of the Elemental Dimension.
The four monarchs shouted in unison, "Elemental Samsara - Begin!"
The transparent energy sphere exploded, and a three-meter-tall figure emerged from the light.
Its body has a translucent crystal-like texture, with four-colored nebulae flowing inside.
The face is a superposition of the four monarch faces, changing four times per second.
His left eye was amber, his right eye was pure white, and half of his hair was flowing mercury, while the other half was solidified flame.
Draped in a starlight cloak woven from the wind, with a swirling four-colored vortex on her chest—a temporary version of the "Heart of Primordial Elements"—she possessed a unique aura.
This is the "Spirit of Chaos".
It can completely control the power of the four mother elemental planes, unleashing a magnificent power comparable to that of Eternal.
The Elemental Dimension is not so easy to conquer.
Even though the King of Elements has not fully awakened from his slumber, he still possesses a terrifying ability to retaliate.
