Chapter 563: 563
A huge suction force sucked Merlin and Wizard Luce into the Slothful Beast’s belly . They could not resist at all, but they were not hurt as they had cast defensive spells . The boulders and gales were helpless against Merlin and Wizard Luce .
“Wizard Luce, are you okay?”
In the darkness, Merlin used his Mind Power, and constantly searched his surroundings .
“Wizard Merlin, I’m fine . I’m here . ”
Wizard Luce responded, and the two quickly gathered . In this darkness, they could only rely on their Mind Power to see their surroundings .
Thankfully, they could see clearly with Mind Power .
“Where are we now?”
Wizard Luce looked around . The place looked boundlessly wide, with no end in sight .
“It should be in the Slothful Beast’s belly . ”
Merlin’s smile was wry . Never had he thought that he would be swallowed into the Slothful Beast’s belly . The Slothful Beast really was too terrifying . It devoured everything around it in the Void Zone immediately after waking up . Perhaps it would not be satisfied even after swallowing a few dimensions .
“What do we do now? Can we leave this place?”
Wizard Luce’s Mind Power searched everywhere . He did not even know the direction . The inside of the Slothful Beast was very large, comparable to a dimension . It would be challenging to find the exit in the Slothful Beast .
“Let’s see how tough this place is! Maybe we can tear space apart and leave . ”
Merlin muttered lowly . He already felt that there was space inside the Slothful Beast’s body . If they could tear apart space, they could easily leave the Slothful Beast’s body .
“I’ll go first . ”
Wizard Luce was a ninth-level Spell Caster . Although he could not directly open a Spatial Passage, he could slightly distort space under the condition of being in an ordinary dimension .
“Fire!”
Wizard Luce’s fireball flew out immediately and exploded fiercely . Even Merlin could feel the terrifying impact of heat . However, the effects did not seem very good . It did not even cause a ripple, much less break space .
“This… This space is too tough! Your turn to try, Merlin . ”
Wizard Luce’s expression was slightly embarrassed . He shook his head helplessly, and let Merlin try .
Merlin sucked in a breath . He could naturally sense the oddness in the Slothful Beast’s body, so he did not hesitate, and immediately used his strongest power .
“Darkness Eye, summon Demon Spirit!”
Merlin released the sixth form of Darkness Eye . Immediately, a gigantic Darkness Demon Spirit condensed from the darkness . The endless darkness gathered into a fist and roared toward space .
“Boom!”
The strength of a Darkness Demon Spirit was comparable to a peak Great Wizard . Perhaps there was still a distance from those top Great Wizards but it was still quite terrifying . If it was in a normal dimension, it could crush space .
Of course, even top Great Wizards could not travel via subspace . Traveling via subspace required a stable Spatial Passage, and only a Great Legend’s Maxim would have the power to stabilize one .
Merlin just gave it a try . Considering the toughness of this space, if it could be easily broken, he could just wait for the black cat Didimoss to wake up, and leave by traveling via subspace .
Very quickly, the Darkness Demon Spirit disappeared . Merlin looked at space which was hit by the Darkness Demon Spirit, and saw that there was no ripple at all . This space was so tough it could only make one despair!
“How could there be such a strong space?”
Merlin and Luce glanced at each other, and saw the looks of horror in each other’s eyes . The space here was so tough that they could not even damage it . Even if the black cat Didimoss woke up, they might not even be able to leave by traveling via subspace .
“We’re in trouble!”
The two knew that they were in huge trouble after entering the Slothful Beast’s belly . Although they had not encountered any issue yet, no one could say for sure that there would be no threats in the Slothful Beast’s belly .
“Let’s go but be careful . Don’t wander around, and just walk in one direction . The two of us mustn’t separate!”

Merlin hesitated for a moment before deciding to move forward . They could not stay at one spot the entire time . Luce and he were still together now so they could rely on each other . However, if they were separated, they would both be in danger .
In the pitch-black darkness, the two fumbled their way forward . Their speed was not fast, and they were constantly watching their surroundings . As they flew, not even they knew how much time had passed .
One month, two months, three months…
The slow and aimless flight caused the two to become impatient . More worrying was there was not a single trace of Element in this darkness . However, it made sense to them . After all, how would there be Elements in a Slothful Beast’s body?
They were Spell Casters who were still far away from becoming Legends . Furthermore, even Great Legends were mortal . Without the support of Elements, they would just be slightly stronger than ordinary people . Their bodies would still gradually decay away .
The exception was those Great Honored Legends who had kept their consciousness and Mind Power in Maxims that had been comprehended to the fullest . As a result, they could live forever .
Thus, Honored Legends could live for hundreds of thousands of years, and perhaps even longer, while ordinary Legends could only live for a few thousand years . However, even if it were just a few thousand years, it was still a long time . After all, it had only been three thousand years after the Spell Caster civilization stepped out from the Glorious Land, and into the Void Zone .
Merlin and Luce were facing such a predicament . They had to be thankful that they had dug a number of elemental crystal stones earlier . Although they could not compare to the number of elemental crystal stones that Legend Zado had dug up in such a short amount of time, they still dug tens of millions of elemental crystal stones .
Thus, the two had more than enough elemental crystal stones . Even if they used the elemental crystal stones to maintain the operation of the Spell Models, and let their bodies consume the elemental crystal stones bit by bit, it was enough to maintain them for hundreds of years .
“We’ve flown or so long but we still haven’t seen an end . How large is this Slothful Beast’s body?”
Wizard Luce sighed . After several months, he was in a constant state of hesitation and worry . His current state was quite bad .
“Hang in there . We’ll definitely find an exit . ”
Merlin was very determined . Although the Slothful Beast was extremely huge, there must be an end . As long as they flew without stopping in one direction, they would definitely reach the other end of the Slothful Beast .
Perhaps, things would definitely take a turn for the better then .
“Merlin, look, that’s… That’s light . It’s light!”
Wizard Luce suddenly cried out on surprise and happiness . In the darkness ahead, he saw a glimmer of light like on the horizon . The light he saw in the darkness was exceptionally dazzling .

“There’s light… Maybe things will turn for the better . Let’s go!”
Merlin was also very excited, and swiftly flew toward the light together with Wizard Luce .
In the boundless Void Zone, the colossal Slothful Beast traveled the Void Zone slowly and aimlessly . Following behind the Slothful Beast were two tiny figures .
“Blackfire Lord, how long are we going to follow it?”
Legend Zado could not resist asking . They had been following this Slothful Beast for almost three years… In these three years, they had tried everything they could but they just could not stop the Slothful Beast, and save Merlin and Luce .
After following the Slothful Beast, they finally knew what a true overlord of the Void Zone was…
This Slothful Beast truly was too terrifying . Over the course of its “wandering”, whenever it touched a dimension or when it grew hungry, it would open its mouth to suck in a mouthful . No dimensions could resist it and would be swallowed directly into its belly . Along the way, they had seen the Slothful Beast devouring dozens of dimensions .
Even if those dimensions had been deserted without a single trace of life, it still made others feel horrified . This was the true overlord of the Void Zone that even Arcane Wizards were useless against .
However, it was fortunate that the Slothful Beast was too “lazy” that it was unwilling to attack others . In the past, the Three Great Arcane Wizards unceasingly attacked a Slothful Beast, but it had completely ignored them . Since then, knowledge of the Slothful Beast in the Void Zone gradually spread among some Great Legends .
It was also because of this that Zado and the Blackfire Lord could keep following behind the Slothful Beast without bothering the Beast .
The Blackfire Lord frowned . He also felt very troubled . According to his knowledge of Slothful Beasts, it must be looking for another good place to “sleep” again . The Slothful Beast’s routine was to sleep, eat, go back to sleep, and eat again .
It seemed like the Slothful Beast was born just to sleep, occasionally wake up to devour a few dimensions, and go back to sleep again . Even the strongest attacks would not awaken it .
It was just that Merlin and the others encountered a Slothful Beast when it was awake .
“We can’t keep waiting like this . When the Slothful Beast finds a suitable place, it’ll fall into a deep sleep, and no one will be able to save Merlin anymore . When a Slothful Beast sleeps, they can sleep for ten thousand, a hundred thousand or even millions of years!”
The Blackfire Lord’s expression was slightly grim . When a Slothful Beast fell deep asleep, it might be even longer than the history of the birth of some dimensions . If the Slothful Beast really slept, Merlin and Luce would be trapped in the Slothful Beast’s belly for eternity, with no hope of coming back out .

“What do we do? We can’t let the Slothful Beast fall asleep!”
Legend Zado’s expression was anxious .
“No one can stop the Slothful Beast from sleeping… We only have one thing we can do now . I’ll go to Arcane City and call for Arcane Wizard Setoh . Perhaps he’ll have a way of saving Merlin . ”
The Blackfire Lord seemed to have decided, and said firmly .
“Invite Arcane Wizard Setoh? Blackfire Lord, you can mobilize an Arcane Wizard?”
Although he knew that the Blackfire Lord was not ordinary, and there were even rumors that he had a friendship with Arcane Wizard Setoh, that was just rumors . Arcane Wizards were the supreme existence of the Spell Caster civilization . Many Honored Legends have not even seen an Arcane Wizard before, much less mobilize them .
“Don’t worry . Setoh still owes me for some things, so I can! Zado, you stay here and follow the Slothful Beast . Form a Maxim avatar so we can keep in contact . ”
The Blackfire Lord valued Merlin deeply . Even Merlin did not know how valuable he was to the Blackfire Lord . Perfecting the Mind System… That was also the Backfire Lord’s wish!
Thus, for Merlin, the Blackfire Lord did not hesitate to mobilize Arcane Wizard Setoh .
“Alright, I’ll form a Maxim avatar immediately and let you take it so we can keep in touch . You’ll be able to quickly find my location as well . ”
Legend Zado bit his lip, and agreed to form a Maxim avatar . As there was no time and space in the Void Zone, it was extremely difficult to transmit news .
Only a Great Legend’s Maxim could ignore space and have a certain response . Thus, by forming a Maxim avatar, one would be able to keep in touch with another .
However, forming a Maxim avatar had some repercussions on a Great Legend’s Maxim . If a Maxim avatar was formed, it would require a few decades to a few centuries for the damaged Maxim to slowly recover . Thus, if it was not entirely unnecessary, even Great Legends would not form Maxim avatars .
Legend Zado also valued Merlin deeply . For Merlin, he did not hesitate to use his Maxim to form a Maxim avatar .
“Form!”
The Maxim drifted out of Legend Zado’s body rapidly, and formed a Maxim avatar in the Void Zone . The Blackfire Lord nodded and said, “Good . I’ll be back quickly!”
Thus, the Blackfire Lord brought Legend Zado’s Maxim avatar, and quickly left the Slothful Beast .
