Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy

Chapter 791: Chapter 703: Digging Up the Roots?_2

The few people’s gaze constantly darted toward each other.

“No matter what happens, the things that belong to us must be brought back, no second thoughts,” declared the Dark Night Mother Goddess unequivocally after a while.

“Indeed, after being lost for tens of thousands of years, it’s time for them to return,” the Sea Mother was the first to agree.

“For the Earth Core Lineage, and for Danaila, it’s our unshirkable duty.”

“It should be so!”

“Do it, no matter what consequences, we will take full responsibility.”

After overcoming the initial bewilderment, the members of the Earth Core Lineage made a firm decision one by one; even if they had to turn the Moon Lake Forest upside down, they must bring the Fang Yu Map back to Danaila.

They were ready to face all consequences, irrespective of any cost.

“Sorcerer Ivan, you and Jenny should withdraw first,” the Dark Night Mother Goddess said to Ivan, whose expression remained unchanged.

“Lady Lilabet, do you think we can leave now?” Ivan replied with a bitter smile.

Before even starting the chaos, the two ancestors had already stirred the surroundings into disarray, with space distorted; at this moment, no retreat seemed possible.

Upon hearing his words, the Dark Night Mother Goddess also belatedly realized this and did not continue with the topic.

…

On the other side, the two ancestors were fighting a chaotic battle that caused heaven and earth to lose their color.

But both were veteran ancestors, and the space here was too narrow, not conducive to deploying all their methods. Thus, in a short time, neither could defeat the other.

Instead, the crystal trees standing within the space suffered greatly, one batch after another shattered, vanishing amidst the combat edges.

At a certain moment, the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor got a cunning idea, taking the opportunity to evade the old man in black and darted towards the Chaos Object on the ground, instantly enveloping the Chaos Object within his body.

“Hahaha, Mr. Dongxi, seems my skill is superior,” the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor smiled heartily after succeeding.

“Is that so? How do you know I didn’t let you?” The old man in black sneered.

“Trying to deceive me, the ancestor won’t fall for a businessman like you.” The Great Owl Thunder Ancestor rebutted indifferently while peeling away the Chaos Smoke from the Chaos Object to conveniently stash it completely.

Suddenly, the enormous Chaos Object pulsated strangely, like a heartbeat.

A more profound dark Chaos Smoke emerged from the Chaos Object, peculiarly penetrating the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor’s sealing power, infiltrating his ancestral deity with inconceivable speed.

The Great Owl Thunder Ancestor was well-versed; he wouldn’t be frightened by such minor occurrences, focusing his power sweeping across.

Unexpectedly, under the pressure of two forces, the dark Chaos Smoke directly melded with his Rule Power, with only part of the smoke swept away.

“See? Did I prophesy correctly?” The old man in black observed this scene.

“What difference does it make? The unwavering power of the ancestor is increasing; truly a treasure!”

The Great Owl Thunder Ancestor was unmoved, seeing his power continuously grow; he simply relinquished resistance and guided the dark Chaos Smoke into his body.

“Aren’t you afraid of losing yourself?”

“Losing myself, so what? I’ll find it back later. By then, the ancestor remains as an ancestor.”

Both were notables in the ancestral realm, their cultivation beliefs distinctly different. The Great Owl Thunder Ancestor could accept absorbing everything to enhance power, even if his mind gets disturbed, to tame it slowly later.

Such reckless behavior left the old man in black speechless; he evidently miscalculated, not expecting the other party to be so abrupt.

“Haha, exhilarating!”

“Come, assist me in cultivating.”

Before the old man in black could react further, the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor joyfully shouted, wrapping around the Chaos Object again, striking with even more intensity.

The old man in black cursed under his breath and charged headlong; he too yearned for the Chaos Object and couldn’t let the other person devour it entirely.

The fierce battle resumed, nearly causing heavens to collapse and earth to crumble.

As time progressed, the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor’s ancestral body became increasingly mixed with dark Chaos Smoke, transforming into another form, the blackness growing denser around him.

The darker the blackness, the more volatile the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor’s power became, fighting more rampantly, wholly disregarding caution.

“Dongxi, you’re growing weaker, haha.”

“You’re becoming more insane.”

Faced with his adversary’s rampage, the old man in black was forced to exert himself fully.

Thus, the fight moved from left to right, from top to bottom, everything annihilated in their path, even the ground eradicated segment by segment.

The space trembled uninterruptedly.

On the other side, the crisscrossing Moon Lake channel was equally affected, shaking incessantly, the surging moon liquid ceaselessly boiling.

“Watch out!”

“Quick, scatter apart.”

In the corner, the Dark Night Mother Goddess was racing against time to refine the Fang Yu Map, a tall ancestral form suddenly appeared not far off, entering the gaze of a group.

At this moment, Ivan saw clearly; this was precisely the shadow from his vision.

Turns out, that shadow was the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor; unknown for what reason, he looked entirely different from before, yet his power became drastically terrifying.

The Great Owl Thunder Ancestor approached wrapped in black smoke and thunder, sweeping away everything around, forcing Ivan and the others to dodge swiftly.

“Insects, perish for me!”

However, this action annoyed the increasingly irritable Great Owl Thunder Ancestor; a brute force poured downwards, trying to crush the whole area below.

Ivan and his group rushed to evade, including the Dark Night Mother Goddess.

If the Fang Yu Map was acquired, the Dark Night Mother Goddess would have confidence against the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor, but her refining was directly interrupted, forcing her to avoid direct confrontation.

Hurriedly, the group scattered and fled from various directions.

“Phew! Even a casual strike so difficult to withstand; this place grows increasingly untenable.” Chaos surrounded them, with Chaos Qi drifting erratically, Ivan soon lost contact with the others.

Currently, the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor did not pursue, as he still had formidable adversaries awaiting, preventing distraction.

“The intense battle between the two ancestors, on the contrary, might be beneficial for the Earth Core Lineage; perhaps without action, the entire Moon Lake Forest will be shattered.”

Ivan harbored no ulterior motive for the Fang Yu Map.

Now, he only hoped the Dark Night Mother Goddess could quickly control the Fang Yu Map; only then would they have a chance to protect themselves before the ancestors, then leave this damned place.

“I—-“

At the edge, Ivan paused briefly for breath, experiencing an eerie sensation, realizing something, he turned his form into a radiant light.

“Discovered! An insect, perish for me.”

“Haha, interesting. More!”

Indeed, the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor swung to this side, casually striking again; the powerful force coming forth fortunately gave Ivan time to dodge it quickly.

The Great Owl Thunder Ancestor did not intend to let him go, abandoning the old man in black to chase Ivan down.

Ivan cursed inwardly; this old fellow too broke the rules, amidst intense combat, still intent on slaughtering the weaker ones.

He dodged frantically.

This time, he knew he couldn’t completely evade, sure to endure damage.

“Boom.”

Accompanied by a loud explosion, Ivan flew toward another side like a shooting stone.

Unexpectedly, the Great Owl Thunder Ancestor laughed again, closing in fiercely, launching a third strike, clearly intending to kill him.

Ivan could no longer stay calm; one strike, undying yet severely wounded.

In this critical moment, a force slanted from the side, intercepting the incoming force, and pushed him away, extremely gentle.

“Great Owl Thunder Ancestor, what’s interesting about bullying juniors.”

“Oh? You know him, intend to protect him. Indeed, he carries a familiar aura, but I insist on killing him; what can you do?”

“He cannot die now.”

Turned out the one intercepting the deadly assault was the old man in black; he solemnly stood before the manically spirited Great Owl Thunder Ancestor, cold gleams in his eyes, colder than before.
