“Nine Hit Strike!”

The unseen force was, in fact, Merlin’s Mind Power fluctuations. Lately, he had been focused on fusing Mind Power with his instincts. Therefore, no matter what situation he faced, he was ready to unleash his Occult Mind Spell at any time.

Moreover, Mind Power had no shape nor shadow, and was very fast, far beyond anything a spell could match. Thus, when dealing with a sudden, unexpected occurrence, casting an Occult Mind Spell was of utmost suitability.

Wave after wave of Mind Power attacked without sound or shadow. The rest only saw that the dense crowd of Dora Demons shrieked in a blood-curdling manner, following which their bodies seemed to be crushed by an extremely terrifying force, exploding into mists of blood instantly.

Merlin’s Occult Mind Spell was now cultivated to Four Hit Strike, which was a fatal threat to most Ninth-level Spell Casters. As a result, these ordinary Dora Demons could not even withstand one blow.

Everyone was ineffably stunned as they watched the sweep of Dora Demons died with barely a whimper. When they looked back at Merlin, their eyes were filled with a trace of fear.

“Phew...”

Merlin let out a long sigh. He had cast his Occult Mind Spell only once, and the majority of the huddled group of Dora Demons had been wiped out. The remaining ones had scattered in all directions out of terror, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Merlin was profiting greatly as well. Darkness Eye in his palm was absorbing more and more of that cold force, and a colossal burst of energy seemed to faintly struggle against the seal.

This was the characteristic of Darkness Eye when it was almost cultivated to its fifth form. As long as it absorbed another great amount of negative energy, the fifth form of Darkness Eye would be cultivated.

“What a powerful Spell Caster. We’re saved.”

“Impressive, he clearly has the Elemental fluctuations of a Fifth-level Spell Caster, yet he barely broke a sweat in slaying so many Dora Demons. He really is too powerful! However, what he had cast earlier was not a spell. It was a soundless, traceless attack with such formidable might. Could he be an extremely rare Mind Power Master?”

“There’s a chance that he’s a formidable Mind Power Master. Most Mind Power Masters become one because their Spell Caster level could not advance, and their spells aren’t that great. Come to think of it, this Wizard must be a mighty Mind Power Master.”

This group of young Wizards who had been entrapped for a long time was able to vaguely surmise Merlin’s identity when they saw him kill so many Dora Demons in one blow with such a peculiar attack.

Still, they merely guessed one part of it but Wizard Midnight, who stood at a distance, knew very clearly that Spell Casters who were able to enter Arcane City must be prodigious Wizards with extremely high potential and capabilities.

Merlin’s powers as a Mind Power Master might be something he had simply cultivated by himself. Merlin’s spells must be even stronger.

“I had thought that he was a Potential Wizard with relatively weaker abilities. I wanted to shield him for some time so that he won’t be killed by the foreign tribe in the Bloodshed Universe. To think that I was wrong in my judgment. Even if his powers are no match for mine, he’ll be quite safe in the Bloodshed Universe.”

A bright look flashed across Wizard Midnight’s eyes. He had only taken the initiative to help Merlin in view of how they were both Potential Wizards from Arcane City.

However, it now looked like Merlin did not need his assistance at all. To be able to enter the Bloodshed Universe, Merlin would naturally have such abilities.

“D*mn you, despicable Spell Caster. You dare to kill the brave warriors of my Dora Demon Tribe. I’ll swallow you alive.”

The Greater Demon which was dark red all over unleashed a roar as he turned into a beam of dark red light, instantly rushing toward Merlin. His speed could not even be discerned by ordinary eyes, and one had to use Mind Power to detect him.

Wizard Midnight perceived the force of this dark red Greater Demon along with the single horn on his forehead, and Wizard Midnight’s expression gradually turned grave. He was certain that he could kill this Greater Demon but he was unsure whether Merlin could contend against it.

Therefore, Wizard Midnight secretly prepared himself. If Merlin showed any signs that he could not hold on any longer, Wizard Midnight would step in and eliminate the Greater Demon.

“Be careful!”

The Greater Demon’s attack was sudden and fast. The ten or so young Wizards warned Merlin in a panic, but with such speed, it would be rather hard for Merlin to evade.

“Humph, just what I wanted!”

Naturally, Merlin had sensed the Greater Demon coming. Now, he was using an opponent who was evenly matched with him to hone his own Mind Power. It was best if he could, under this pressure, completely fuse his Mind Power into his instincts. In this manner, his Mind Heart would break through to the Eighth-level.

With this in mind, Merlin mobilized his thoughts, and wielded his Occult Mind Spell instantly. Invisible fluctuations wildly surged like a tide toward the Greater Demon.

Currently, Merlin had only cultivated Nine Hit Strike up until Four Hit Strike, but a Mind Power attack had no sound nor shape, and its speed was beyond comparison with any spells. The consecutive attacks were able to reduce the Greater Demon’s speed by a little.

By the fourth strike, the dark red Greater Demon could not help but reveal his figure. He no longer rushed forward stubbornly for Merlin’s Occult Mind Spell was able to cause him harm.

“Berserk!”

The Greater Demon was filled with endless wrath, and unleashed a deep howl. His entire body turned an even darker shade of red as his body swelled up rapidly. At the same time, the force of his body became even stronger.

“Whoosh.”

The Greater Demon bounded toward Merlin once again. This time, whether in terms of speed or strength, he was clearly on another level from before. Merlin’s Four Hit Strike only had a limited influence on this Greater Demon, unable to easily prevent him from approaching Merlin.

“A technique unique to the Dora Demon Tribe, Berserk! Their strength would increase many times over instantly. This Greater Demon is now at least on par with the peak attainable by the fusing of two spells, second only to powerful Wizards who had fused three spells!”

Merlin felt a sense of threat. If he had been able to rely on his Occult Mind Spell to contend against his opponent before this, now, his Occult Mind Spell was presently not of much use against a Dora Demon who had used Berserk.

Everyone became anxious. After the Greater Demon became Berserk, Merlin was immediately at a disadvantage, caught in a situation of imminent danger. However, just when Wizard Midnight had decided to step in, Merlin’s speed increased somewhat, and his Mind Power began to fluctuate violently. Everyone could feel each wave of fluctuations.

“Haha, I’ve finally grasped it. My Mind Power is fused with my instincts, and my Occult Mind Spell can be unleashed anytime, anywhere, faster than any spell.”

Merlin was wild with joy because earlier, under the threat of the Berserk Greater Demon, Merlin had used Occult Mind Spell to its peak.

At last, the pressure had reached the critical point, and his Mind Power had finally, naturally, fused with his instincts. Thereafter, Mind Power would accompany his every single movement. No matter how swift and sudden the danger was, Merlin’s Occult Mind Spell could be cast immediately.

Furthermore, his Mind Heart, which had originally reached the limits of the Seventh-level, had finally advanced to an Eighth-level Mind Heart in a natural and inevitable manner.

“An upgrade in Mind Power? What a cunning little Spell Caster. Hehe, but of what use is that? I’ll swallow you in one bite, haha...”

The savage nature of the dark red Greater Demon flared up as he cast aside all concerns, and locked his terrifying momentum onto Merlin. He instantly turned into a dark red light beam, appearing before Merlin in a flash.

Merlin did not dodge, and a cold glint shone in his eyes. Following that, balls of flames and thunder, suppressed to the maximum, appeared in his hands without warning.

“Buzz.”

The flames and thunder fused in an instant. Pushing with both hands, Merlin commanded softly, “Explode!”

“Boom!”

In that instant, the flames and thunder wreaked havoc in a frenzied manner. The petrifying shockwaves spread at a visible pace like ripples on water, stretching out to all directions in widening rings.
