World Collision was an exceedingly rare natural phenomenon. Even in the Wizards' records of conquest, such phenomena were few and far between.
The cause of this natural phenomenon had yet to be determined. Its specific manifestation was that two worlds, though far apart in their spatial coordinates within the Astral Realm, possessed a spacetime connection with one another. The energy and matter of both worlds could pass into each other through Spatial Rifts.
The Wizards' world Teleportation Gates were a byproduct of researching this phenomenon.
According to Ancelina and Anderson, this world's invasion disasters fit the records of World Collisions very well. But their descriptions were wildly exaggerated.
If they were telling the truth, then this world had been invaded by at least the Four Element Lords, Flesh Demon Beasts like the Calamity Great Serpent, swarming Insect Tides, world-lord-level undead, and many other types of creatures.
Honestly, if Angelina and Anderson had not remained so solemn while speaking, without the slightest hint of a joke, Richard would have thought they were pulling his leg.
Those creatures could not possibly appear in the same world—or even in two or three worlds. The Four Element Lords appeared only in the Elemental Domain and Four-Element Equilibrium Worlds, while world-lord-level undead almost exclusively appeared in Death Worlds with unusual laws.

And then there were those Insect Tides...
Even by the most conservative estimate, this world had collided with four entirely different Four Element Worlds. One of those worlds must also have possessed exceptionally unusual death laws, allowing it to produce world-lord-level undead creatures. Or perhaps one world had suffered a world-scale disaster, with over half of
