    “Swish swish swish.”


    The four martial arts robots were fast beyond limits. Their bodies transformed into an apparition and violently shot toward four different directions, to the extent that the space friction produced an ear-piercing sound.


    The power of these four martial arts robots could, in fact, break space and travel via subspace. However, as this was an independent subspace constructed by the Origin Lord, and they were in the secondyer, this subspace was extremely stable. Even a Great Legend would not be able to break this subspace.


    “Whiz whiz whiz.”


    Pangs of space-splitting noise sounded, and the four martial arts robots had reached maximum limits of speed. However, they were unable to escape Merlin’s giant palm.


    “Rumble.”


    Merlin’s spell, the Five-Elemental Wizard Heart, was no longer within the leagues of ordinary Legends. It was able to tear apart a Maxim. So, when this palm mmed down, its raw power immediately crushed the silvery-white light above the four martial arts robots.


    Subsequently, even their durable bodies began to crack like they were made from ss, and shattered the very next moment.


    Merlin withdrew the Five-Elemental Wizard Heart. His spell power had far exceeded his own imaginations. Based on the power disyed, even a Two-Maxim Great Legend would not be his worthy opponent.


    Of course, this was not even Merlin’s most powerful state yet. If Merlin could fuse the final Wizard Heart and achieve the Six-Elemental Wizard Heart as well as consolidate the multi-colored Wizard Heart, then he would undergo a qualitative transformation. As to how powerful he would be, even Merlin himself could not predict.


    After defeating these four martial arts robots, Merlin was just about to fly toward the four Maxim evolution zones when he saw four beams of silvery-white light. The countless smithereens began to reassemble rapidly. These four martial arts robots were surprisingly also made of liquid memory metal. Thus, unless they werepletely destroyed, it was impossible to defeat them.


    “Truly amazing. Even the Great Legends don’t have such abilities. If only I can control these martial arts robots...”


    Merlin was slightly tempted by the thought. The liquid memory metal martial arts robots were not onlyparable to ordinary Legends in terms of ability but possessed “immortal” characteristics. They were certainly tough to beat. If these robots were mass-produced, they would pose a threat to the Spell Caster civilization.


    Even then, these martial art robots were not without weakness. Their bodies were made of liquid memory metal. So, using a me Maxim or an Ice Maxim with extreme temperatures could destroy the liquid memory metal. ording to scientific theory, it would also destroy its molecr structure.


    In fact, this was logical. As long as a Maxim was strong enough, it was possible topletely defeat these martial arts robots, albeit highly challenging. After all, these robots were adept at “martial arts”, so they would not be easily defeated.


    Although the martial arts robots had recovered, they did not try to stop Merlin again. After all, this was not a life-or-death battle but merely a challenge.


    “Well done. Wizard Merlin, you’ve passed the second challenge. Go on then, you may umte insights from the evolution process of the ultimate Maxims to your heart’s content. This is an opportunity that even the Great Legends can only dream of!”


    Then, the silver puppet mysteriously disappeared once again.


    Merlin took a deep breath and looked at a fiery red space before him, which exuded a vicious aura. Merlin’s eyes lit up. It was the me Maxim.


    “Swish.”


    Without any dy, Merlin immediately chose the me Maxim zone and flew in. After all, from the very beginning, the first spell Merlin constructed was Fireball. Hence, his understanding of Fire-type spells was most sophisticated.


    If Merlin seeded in bing a Great Legend in the future, his aplishment would be based on Fire or Darkness Elements consolidated into a Maxim. Fire-type spells and Darkness-type spells were the two types of spells which Merlin had the mostprehensive understanding.


    “Ultimate Maxim!”


    Merlin was also very excited. When he stepped into the ultimate Maxim evolution zone, he felt an entirely new sensation. There was no feeling of heat whatsoever. Even though there were zing mes burning around him, there was a stark difference from ordinary mes.


    “Is this the ultimate Maxim?”


    Merlin was slightly taken aback. He had seen the ordinary me Maxims. Those Maxims were violent and scorching hot, to the point that even space could be set aze. Those characteristics were representative of a me, and the Maxim magnified those characteristics to the highest limits.


    Violence and heat were the essences of a me. Therefore, through an understanding of the two, it was possible to consolidate a Maxim and be a Great Legend. However, the ultimate me Maxim appeared to bepletely different from the essence of a me. Not only was it not violent but it also did not emit any heat.


    A me Maxim without any heat... Was it still considered a me?


    Merlin frowned. To some extent, he had already expected that an ultimate Maxim would not be straightforward. Otherwise, there would not be so few Honored Legends in the entire Spell Caster civilization.


    Every existence who had managed to be an Honored Legend would have to possess a superb talent and encounter countless divine opportunities in order to gain enlightenment of an ultimate Maxim. This was the true Essence of Element.


    Merlin had watched the evolution process of the ultimate Maxim carefully. Although he did not understand it, he wanted to memorize it firmly in his mind. He saw that the Fire Element was slowly converted into Magic Power, and bound in the Spell Model.


    Then, it consolidated into a Maxim where all the characteristics of a me were manifested to their highest limits. This was almost like the evolution process of a me Maxim except that the evolution did not end there. The me Maxim continued to evolve and became so iparably violent and powerful that everything would be burnt to ashes.


    Gradually, Merlin came to think of the word “destruction”.


    Indeed, the ultimate me Maxim was none other than destruction! Regardless of whether a me was hot or violent, it could cause unparalleled damage to its surroundings. This was the true essence of the me Maxim as well as the real ultimate limit of the me Maxim.


    “Destruction? I see. Ordinary Legends only understood the Essence of Element on the surface whereas the ultimate Maxim drives the Maxim to its utmost limit, unleashing unbeatable power. For example, the ultimate me Maxim is pure destruction. Its destructive power is overwhelming. Generally, among Honored Legends, those who built their achievement on mes would have fearsome powers. In any given war, a Legend of mes can cause massive damage to the foreign tribes simply because the me Maxim has reached its limit.”


    Surprisingly, Merlin gained significant insight from the ultimate me Maxim. Perhaps even he did not realize that at this moment, his Wizard Heart began to quiver unsteadily like it was going to copse at any moment. Endless Fire Elements surged into Merlin’s Awareness and fused with his Wizard Heart.


    “Not good! I haven’t be a Great Wizard. I still have the Darkness-type Wizard Heart that hasn’t been fused. Now that I’ve gained significant insight about mes, no less than those Great Legends, I can even try to consolidate a me Maxim. However, doing so would be very dangerous. If I forcibly consolidate a Maxim while my Wizard Heart is still iplete, I’m afraid the Wizard Heart will copse immediately!”


    Merlin quickly discovered the precarious situation his body was in. Basically, his enlightenment of mes was too advanced. However, it was far too premature for him to consolidate a me Maxim and be a Legend. Otherwise, the Wizard Heart in his body would be unbnced. Once a Wizard Heart had lost its bnce, it would copse. Naturally, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    Thinking along these lines, Merlin bit his lip. He made up his mind. This was not the right time to consolidate a Maxim. Hence, he hurriedly woke himself up from the strange insightful state and interrupted his collection of insight from the me Maxim.
