"What … What's going on with you?"
At first, Congnus was only concerned with scolding Grimm. But with the sharp senses of a high-order lich, he quickly sensed the abnormality in Grimm's soul ripples.
"Why do I sense the power of laws? Have you already pushed the law of fire to the level of laws? "
Congnus's spiritual waves were loud and agitated, a stark contrast to his usual cold and sinister self. He was clearly shocked by the reality before him.
The last time he met Grimm was half a year ago. That was only a short period of time for them to take a nap or go out for a stroll. How could such a small amount of time allow him to undergo such a drastic change?!
But now, Congnus's knowledge was completely overturned by Grimm's terrifying rate of advancement.
He could actually smell the strong scent of laws on Grimm's body. Naturally, he knew what this meant for a Tier 4 Sorcerer.
That was why it couldn't wait to ask the question. It wanted to know the terrifying answer as soon as possible!
"How should I put it … I'm in a complicated state right now," Grimm said, "To be more precise, I'm a half-evolved one!"
"Half-evolved?" Even the Tier 4 Lich was dazed by Grimm's actions. He simply could not understand what a Semi-Advanced Tier was. If he advanced, then he advanced. If he didn't advance, then he didn't advance. What was half-advanced?
"It's simple. I've grasped a type of law of fire, but my spiritual force hasn't reached the required level yet. That's why I'm stuck on the path to evolution …"
"Grasped the law of fire … Spiritual force not up to the required level …" Congnus couldn't help but mutter.
The more he thought about it, the crazier and more shocked he became.
How did something like that happen?
Spiritual force not up to the required level meant it hadn't reached the upper limit of 50 points. In that case, how did Grimm squeeze out the Law of Fire and purify it into the Law of Fire?
Could it be the Divine Vulcan Pearl? With a high-grade divine weapon that was completely compatible with his soul, could he really refine the power of laws and reach the level of laws?
At the thought of that, Congnus's heart, which had been silent for millennia, started to beat again. After all, it also possessed a high-grade divine artifact that was compatible with the origin of the soul.
The Austere Winter Box had both the Death and Cold Rules. If he could fuse it with his soul, the power he could unleash would definitely be above that of the Legendary Fire Wizard's Fire God Bead.
Ever since Congnas obtained the Austere Chest, he had become a powerful demigod lich. If he could obtain a method to temper his Law Power from Grimm, he might even become a Tier 5 Great Lich.
At that time, with the Chest of Austere Winter, it could become a powerhouse in the entire Pan-Universe Grand Alliance of Liches and Demons.
The title of a Lich was different from that of a Wizard.
Rank 3 and Rank 4 Liches were collectively known as Liches, Rank 4 Liches were known as Demigod Liches, Rank 5 Liches were known as Great Liches or God Liches, Rank 6 Liches were known as Lich Elders, and Rank 7 and above were known as Lich Kings.
To be honest, the highest ranked Lich in the multiverse was the Lich King at rank 7. A higher level Lich had yet to appear!
"Where are you now? I'll go look for you immediately …" Congnas could not help but feel restless at the thought of this. As for the grudge between him and the Necropolis of the God of Death, it became worthless in the face of something as important as ascending.
"XXXXX, XXXXX …" Grimm transmitted the coordinates of the sealed Great Dimensional Crack to Congnas.
A moment later, the sealed Gate of Light shrunk to a hundred meters wide ripple in space. A crystal skeleton draped in a luxurious magic robe emerged from within and descended into the Magus World.
"Enemy …"
"Prepare to attack!
"Be careful, it looks like a Lich …"
The Arden Family's Magi who were circling around the Gate of Light on their flying beasts raised their Elemental Shields and took out their high-grade magic wands. They were ready for battle.
"Stand down, all of you. It's my guest!" Grimm's gentle voice echoed in the sky.
Hearing this, all the Sorcerers hurriedly retracted the spell radiance in their hands and stopped chanting their spells, retreating into the distance.
The Lich Congnas, who had rushed over in a hurry, raised his head and saw the thousand-meter-tall Grimm.
It opened its mouth silently, grinning so wide that the short staff in its hand almost fell from the sky.
It looked around for a long time before it cautiously floated up and flew in front of Grimm. It said in surprise, "No wonder you said that your condition is abnormal … It is indeed shocking!"
"Sorry for the embarrassment!" Grimm chuckled. "Something went wrong during the upgrade, so I can only stay in this giant form for now … Fortunately, I didn't lose much in terms of combat power!"
"Can I see what kind of law of fire you've mastered?" Congnas rubbed his hands together.
Grimm was a Demigod Lich, so there was no way he would covet the law of fire. Therefore, Grimm did not hide anything. He raised his right hand that was as big as a hill and raised his index finger.
In the next second, a small cluster of golden flames floated up.
Any high-order Magus' exclusive spells were their secret weapons. They would not show it to others easily. Only friends like them, who had no direct conflict of interest, would be so generous and pure.
Congnas did not try to probe the flames with his spiritual force. Instead, he silently sensed the characteristics of the laws of fire.
The small cluster of flames did not look like much, but as it burned on Grimm's fingertip, it caused the laws of the world to tremble violently. At the level of the world's laws invisible to the naked eye, other than the nomological power of the Flame Law, all other nomological powers were vaguely repelled.
This meant that when Grimm used the law of fire, the laws of the world would be temporarily rewritten. Apart from the power of fire, Grimm's enemies would not be able to obtain any elemental or law power from the laws of the world.
This was the most terrifying thing about Magi of laws being superior to Magi of elemental laws.
They could sever the connection between their enemies and the planar system. Without the connection of the planar system, it was impossible to fight against a Magus of Laws who had an endless supply of mana with their own strength and spells.
Apart from the power of laws, the legendary fire shaman's flames also had a terrifying life-locking property. Once Grimm's law of fire invaded someone's soul, the power of the law would seep into their soul and use their life force as fuel to burn for eternity.
Such a vicious law of fire would not rest until one was dead. Without another law of equal power to counteract the law of fire, no one would be able to escape death.
Even though he was already a demigod lich and had the Austere Chest with him, the golden flames in Grimm's hand still made him feel an instinctive sense of respect from the depths of his soul.
This was the suppression of Laws, the suppression of power, and the suppression of strength!
Ever since he obtained the Austere Chest, Congnas had become cold and aloof.
In its eyes, there were very few opponents of the same level that could compare to it. Even those so-called super powerhouses were divided into different levels in its eyes. Trash like Sevorius wouldn't be a match for Congnas even if there were a dozen of them. Only powerful beings like Gria, who had trained in the outer world, had the right to fight him.
But now, facing the human magus that was once so insignificant, Congnus felt a little lost and depressed.
This was the power of laws! This was pure, unadulterated power of laws!
He thought he was talented enough to become a Demigod Lich after becoming a Demigod Lich from a normal lich. How could he have known that the inconspicuous Grimm had already locked onto the path to Tier 5 and became a Magus of Laws even stronger than him?
For some reason, Congnas found it hard to control his emotions at the thought.
However, as a cunning lich, he wouldn't reveal his true feelings. Besides, the only thing left of its face was its crystal skull. What kind of creature in the world could tell the changes in its emotions from its white and cold bones?
"Let's work together!" Congnas suddenly said.
Since Congnas was so powerful, he had to pull him into his camp.
"We've always been allies," Grimm said, "What, are you going to forget about our previous promise?"
It was only then that Congnas remembered he had made a verbal promise to serve him for 200 years.
But in the past decade or so, he had only focused on fusing with the Austere Chest and sent a few high-order subordinates to the Horton Witchcraft Academy. Now that he thought about it, he was actually one of Grimm's subordinates!
In the past, the demigod lich Congonus would have looked down on his status and even forced Grimm to change his promise. But now, Grimm had become an expert of a higher rank and power than him, making Congnas the weaker of the two.
His identity as Grimm's servant would become a reality!
