“Everyone, based on our squad’s abilities alone, we can’t fight the Void Beast. Controller Caesar, my Illusory World’s natural order is very stable and can accommodate more contenders. Hence, why don’t we merge both our squads for one final stand?”

Merlin’s voice rumbled like thunder in the sky and echoed in everyone’s ear. Now, everyone knew the situation faced by Merlin’s squad. Once Merlin’s squad failed, no one here would survive.

Thinking along these lines, Controller Caesar was the first to respond to Merlin’s call, “Haha,” Caesar laughed heartily, “I don’t see anything wrong with that! To stop the Void Beast, any method is worth a try, what more combining a squad. I’ll start first.”

With that, Caesar flew into Merlin’s Illusory World. Then, without any further hesitation, all the contenders entered Merlin’s Illusory World.

Since Merlin’s Illusory World had been suffering the the Void Beast’s constant barrage, in just a short period, it had expanded to almost two thousand Latitude Cosmoses.

This directly led to the number of contenders that could be accommodated in the Illusory World to increase significantly. Originally, the Illusory World had over three thousand people. Now, a steady stream of Free Beings and Controllers were ushered in.

Three thousand five hundred, three thousand eight hundred, four thousand…

In just a short time, Merlin’s Illusory World had accommodated over four thousand people. Merlin could feel the additional burden on the Illusory World but at the same time, he could feel the Illusory World’s power increase rapidly.

“Boom.”

Finally, when the headcount reached four thousand two hundred people, Merlin’s Illusory World had reached its limit. It could not accommodate any more people. However, its power was now increased to an entire new level. On top of that, Merlin’s Illusory World was able to firmly withstand the Void Beast’s impact.

“We’ve blocked it!”

Merlin was not the only one who was relieved. Azulon, Caesar, and the others were also overjoyed. Never in their wildest dreams did they expect the situation to turn around so dramatically. They initially thought that their lives would be hanging on a thin thread as they await Tyron’s rescue but now, they were able to fight the Void Beast head-on. Truly, it had exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Nonetheless, Merlin did not let down his guard. This was a golden opportunity. He was using the fight against the Void Beast to prolong the chaos in the Illusory World. Although the Illusory World was chaotic, with the support of over four thousand people, it remained remarkably stable.

Thus, it was a golden opportunity for Merlin to expand his world. Surely, he would not allow it to pass. Therefore, Merlin took the initiative to confront and attack the Void Beast, causing it to become enraged.

Two thousand one hundred, two thousand three hundred and fifty, two thousand eight hundred, three thousand…

Merlin’s Illusory World had expanded at breakneck speed. In just three days, the Illusory World had expanded to the equivalent of over three thousand Latitude Cosmoses. This made him one of the more powerful existences among the Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings.

Of course, he had a long way to go compared to the top Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings but then, Merlin had only become a Controller for less than ten thousand years whereas the top Medium Cosmos Absolute Beings had spent dozens or hundreds of latitude years.

By now, almost all of Caesar’s squad had entered Merlin’s world. The combined power of over five thousand people was truly menacing, perhaps only inferior to the top-most Major Cosmos Absolute Beings like Tyron. Currently, it was not the Void Beast which was harassing Merlin but Merlin who was actively harassing the Void Beast.

“Whoosh.”

Finally, Tyron arrived. Over the past few days, he had rushed here as fast as he could. Initially, he thought that Merlin would be in danger but surprisingly when he arrived, he had witnessed an unexpected scene. Merlin was outdoing the Void Beast at every corner. In terms of pure strength, Merlin was also slightly more powerful than the Void Beast.

Tyron was one of the top Major Cosmos Absolute Beings so he had spent a lot of time crossing-swords with these Void Beasts. Therefore, he was able to tell from a single glance that this Void Beast was not ordinary. Its ability was quite extraordinary. Even a few squads would not be able to stop this Void Beast, much less Merlin’s squad of merely three thousand over people.

Yet, Merlin was suppressing the Void Beast. Something must have changed in the process.

“Roar…”

Finally, the Void Beast was cowed. With a loud roar, it turned around to escape and dove into the pitch-black Void Sea. Merlin did not give chase. Tyron had already warned them to never enter the Void Sea because even Major Cosmos Absolute Beings were known to get lost in it.

Seeing the Void Beast escape, Merlin felt a little frustrated but he knew that he was able to suppress the Void Beast. Most of the Major Cosmos Absolute Beings could suppress a Void Beast but could not kill it.

These Void Beasts were extremely difficult to kill. Even Tyron could only kill a limited number of Void Beasts. Thus, driving them back into the Void Sea was considered a success.

“The Void Beast has finally been driven away. Our barrier hasn’t been breached.”

“Look, isn’t that Sir Tyron?”

After the Void Beast was chased away, everyone was ecstatic and overjoyed. They had just escaped the jaws of death, thus many of the Free Beings and Controllers were reeling in joy.

Many people also noticed Tyron next to them, which put their hearts further at ease. Even if another Void Beast were to appear, they would not have to fear.

“Teacher Tyron!”

Naturally, Merlin also noticed Tyron and immediately came to his side. Merlin’s Illusory World had now stabilized and was no longer chaotic. However, over five thousand people were still in his world.

Tyron continued to stare at Merlin in bewilderment. He was not just a Major Cosmos Absolute Being but the top Major Cosmos Absolute Being. Hence, he discovered Merlin’s situation with a single glance.

“Your… Your world expanded to over three thousand Latitude Cosmoses?”

Tyron was astonished. Although he knew that Merlin’s Illusory World was infinitely unique, he still could not conceal the amazement in his heart. Back when Merlin was recruiting his squad, the Illusory World was only about the size of one thousand five hundred over Latitude Cosmoses.

Right now, it had grown once over to more than three thousand Latitude Cosmoses. Such a growth rate was ridiculous. Even a top Major Cosmos Absolute Being like him found it unbelievable.

Merlin knew that he could not hide this progress, so he nodded. “That’s right, Teacher Tyron. When my Illusory World fought against the Void Beast, the world was chaotic but its essence was unharmed. Therefore, the world made use of this time to expand freely. It’s now equivalent to over three thousand Latitude Cosmoses.”

“It was also because of the expansion that I was able to accommodate more contenders. I combined Controller Caesar’s squad with mine. Luckily, we were able to withstand the Void Beast.”

Merlin explained in detail. Although it was truly bizarre and mind-blowing, in the end, Tyron nodded calmly.

It seemed that this explained how Merlin was able to fight back against that powerful Void Beast and ultimately defeat it.

“Your luck is quite good and helped you escape but, in the end, the Void Sea’s barrier still fell…”

Tyron heaved a long sigh and said regrettably.
