Chapter 127 – Anti-Magic Domain! [Request for Recommendation Votes]

Author: Zhu Sheng Fu Tu
The fourth wave of the Saint’s Cataclysm is about to arrive.
Soren can feel the increasingly thick Death Aura in the Material Plane due to the ongoing war!
The appearance of the Winter Ghost is merely a sign; the powerful Demigod Liches and Undead Lords, who are the main characters of the fourth wave of the Saint’s Cataclysm, are still hiding in the shadows. The gods have ruled the Multiverse for countless years, and the pressure built up over this long period cannot be dispelled by a single Saint’s Cataclysm. They still harbor fear of the gods deep down, which is why they have not dared to act impulsively. However, when the Death Energy in the Material Plane reaches a certain level, or when they believe the gods have become extremely weak, it will be the time for the Demigod Liches and Undead Lords to stand in the light.
This process will still take some time!
Because there is also a very important natural disaster ritual, they need to awaken the sleeping undead and bring more death to the Material Plane.
This is a large-scale ritual that changes the characteristics of the plane!
It will inject a trace of deathly power into the Material Plane, temporarily suppressing the Divine Power of the King of the Dead – Klanvor, preventing all the dead from resting and eventually reviving as wandering undead.
Modo City.
Soren stands atop the Tower, overlooking the entire land.
The impact of the Undead Plague has already begun to show some traces, and even he feels a slight unease deep down at this moment.
Because a major event is about to happen!
An event that will affect the entire God of Death system! That is, the King of the Dead – Klanvor has been jointly ambushed by the Demigod Liches and Undead Lords!
Soren does not know where this battle is taking place!
Because the King of the Dead – Klanvor has yet to show any signs, and just before the outbreak of the Undead Plague, this chief god of the God of Death system faced a joint ambush from many lords of the Negative Energy Plane and suffered extremely severe injuries. Such injuries have caused the domain of [Eternal Sleep] he controls to fail, rendering him unable to cover the Material Plane and the Spirit World, so that the vast majority of the dead cannot find peace and directly transform into undead under the influence of the Death Aura.
Klanvor has always been dedicated to granting the dead eternal sleep.
The intensity of the outbreak of the Undead Plague is directly related to him; the Demigod Liches will only reveal themselves after defeating him.
Their goal is the Divine Profession of [Death]!
Moreover, behind this is another god of death’s conspiracy, the exceedingly evil God of Death – Naraku!
It is impossible for the many Demigod Liches and Undead Lords to gather together without cause; even the devil’s dark instigations cannot lead to united action, as there must be a powerful God of Death planning behind the scenes. Although Soren currently has no evidence to confirm this, he believes the one with the greatest suspicion is the God of Death – Naraku!
The Saint’s Cataclysm is a special period.
During this time, all ambitious evil gods are restless, and the giant web woven by the Spider Queen could strike at any moment. Similarly, the Lady of the Night is plotting unknown schemes.
It is no surprise that the God of Death – Naraku wants to meddle with Klanvor’s Divine Profession.
However, the actions of the other party are too covert, and even Soren cannot obtain any information!
The King of the Dead – Klanvor holds a unique position in the entire God of Death system because his doctrine is to grant eternal sleep to the dead. This places him in opposition to many powerful beings that study death, most notably the Demigod Liches and Undead Lords. In contrast to Klanvor, the God of Death – Naraku is a neutral evil deity who has no conflict with most Demigod Liches and even has a large number of undead among the believers and priests of his church.
He is referred to as the [Life Ender]!
For the vast majority of evil undead, this God of Death aligns with their beliefs in both conduct and doctrine.
That is, to end life!
Every strike of the Saint’s Cataclysm does not arise without reason; the previous strikes were caused by the lower planes’ greed and plunder of souls in the Material Plane, while the latter strikes stem from the long-standing hatred and discord among the elemental gods. The Spider Queen’s giant web is a result of accumulated hatred and ambition over thousands of years, while the Lady of the Night’s conspiracy arises from irreconcilable conflicts with Lady Silver Moon since their inception. The outbreak of the Undead Plague is also related to Klanvor, as the original Three Death Deities were extremely evil entities, but he has begun to dedicate himself to granting eternal sleep to the undead.
The explosion of such long-accumulated grievances is terrifying!
Soren also dares not act recklessly at the moment but can only quietly wait for the hidden puppeteer to reveal themselves. Moreover, as the main force in this strike, Soren is unlikely to be at the forefront; the Lord of Radiance must have already begun investigating everything.
Demons, undead, devils.
These three are undoubtedly the most hated and despised beings by the Lord of Radiance!
…
Ghouls, skeleton soldiers, vampires, liches, mummies…
It seems as if overnight, an abundance of undead creatures began to appear, whether in the southern nations, the northern highlands, or Arendelle, and even in the Eastern Kingdom.
The traces of liches suddenly began to increase.
These liches, which had originally been hidden in the corners of the Material Plane, came forth, including liches and undead from other Negative Energy planes that infiltrated the Material Plane, creating countless disturbances. In the distant Eastern Kingdom, even before the Winter Ghost appeared, some very dangerous ancient mummies emerged!
This message came from the Eastern Empress.
To this day, she still has not come to Modo City, but one of her Dance Maidens sent a handwritten letter.
It expressed humility and respect in facing Soren, and also detailed the recent difficulties faced by the Eastern Kingdom — the ancient evil artifact had just surfaced, providing them with not a moment’s respite, and in the distant deserts of the Eastern Kingdom, large numbers of mummies had awakened.
These mummies do not know from where they came, gathered together and controlled by ancient mummies, continually attacking and harassing the Eastern Kingdom.
Many monasteries are now in a state of full war preparation, and in the letter, the Eastern Empress also stated that she would immediately come to visit Soren as soon as she dealt with matters on her end.
Regarding this matter.
Soren’s attitude is quite lenient because recently, the contract girl – Chan, whom he blessed with divine power, has completed her training as a Master of Fist and has been sent by the monastery to the desert region to clear these suddenly emerging mummies.
“Perhaps we should consider forming a monk order.”
As a deity, Soren has many matters that require his attention daily, but this does not affect his plans.
He is about to ascend to become a being of Strong Divine Power.
Furthermore, many churches of various deities contain monk orders.
Currently, Soren’s church is relatively single, with Wanderers occupying too large a proportion. He needs to inject more fresh blood and talented individuals with special abilities.
Monks from the Lawful Evil Faction are one of the considered targets!
Soren has been nurturing Chan for a while now; with a trace of divine power granted by Soren, Chan is now a Legendary-ranked monk.
What he is currently considering is whether or not to take some time to guide her, allowing this young woman to establish an internal monk order within his church. Monks are a very special profession, containing many talents; because their pursuits differ, the internal relationships of monks with the secular world are relatively weak, which can compensate for Soren’s church’s current deep entanglement with the secular world.
…
In mid-September of the New Moon Era 1677.
The Fallen Witch finally left Modo City to set off for the legendary City of Imprints, while Soren finds there is nothing he can do about it because even if he ascends to Strong Divine Power, he cannot easily enter the City of Imprints.
However.
On this very day, a very strange incident occurred in Modo City.
The time was around the morning.
A powerful wave of energy suddenly appeared in Modo City, enveloping the entire Modo Island, and soon all the witches within Modo City felt difficulties in casting spells. Some witches with too low Profession Levels suddenly lost all their magic abilities. Fortunately, this panic-inducing situation did not last long; they soon regained their spellcasting power.
Soren sensed this immediately.
He almost instantaneously appeared in Gloria’s laboratory and saw the Elemental Furnace operating at full capacity, with Alice assisting in the experiment beside it.
“The preliminary test has been completed.”
Since obtaining the Scepter of Saphiras, Gloria has begun to emit a trace of divine aura, losing some of her mortal approachability and gaining a touch of divine transcendence.
She smiled slightly at Soren, nodded, and said, “Shut down the Maze!”
“Cancel the Anti-Magic Barrier!”
“Tower Spirit, begin compiling the test results!…”
Indeed.
The Maze that had just enveloped Modo Island had been activated and was in a fully operational state, requiring the Elemental Furnace to provide energy at full capacity.
Soren looked surprised and said, “The Anti-Magic Domain succeeded?”
Gloria gently nodded, “So far, the preliminary experiment has been successful. Under full activation of the Maze, the Anti-Magic Domain can restrict the casting of all spells below the third circle!…”
“I only figured out some of the principles of the Magic Network after receiving the information regarding the Mage Divine Profession.”
“However, to achieve a true and comprehensive Anti-Magic, we probably still need to construct a small Magic Network within the Maze!”
The Anti-Magic Domain.
It has been one of the research directions of Modo City all along; after Soren seized the Scepter of Saphiras, Gloria’s research has finally made groundbreaking progress. If this pace continues, Modo City could truly limit the abilities of other spellcasters in the future, allowing only those who have obtained Modo City’s permission to freely cast spells within the Anti-Magic Domain.
