Seeing him like this, Viola waved her hand with a smile: “But you don’t have to worry too much. Although it’s not specified in detail, basically, any wizard issuing a task at the Boundary Point is aiming to conquer the plane for their Wizard Tower. If a plane can be used as a Wizard Tower, it indicates that the encountered plane is a relatively orderly world.”

The so-called relatively orderly means that the plane’s rules are quite similar to the native plane where the wizard lives.

Though there are many differences in details, they generally follow certain rules, such as the Elorcia Plane Group.

The troublesome ones are those planes with overly unique rules, where the wizards lose members not due to battles but due to the circumstances.

For instance, the Shadow Plane that Jeming once heard about is a rather unique plane. Even just staying in the Shadow Plane inflicts continuous damage to the wizards.

The value of the two types of planes is not easy to analyze. For individuals like High Tier Wizards, the value of orderly planes is higher, while for a Wizard Influence, the unique planes might hold more value.

During their conversation, suddenly, the entire plane experienced intense tremors!

The ground beneath them emitted cracking sounds, as if subjected to some unbearable pressure.

Jeming then saw the barren sky above torn open by a gigantic rift, a true tear in the planar barrier!

On the other side of the rift, an eerie scene unfolded, where strange materials surged within, filled with completely unfamiliar elemental fluctuations.

“We’ve arrived!” Viola’s voice turned grave.

Seeing this, the other wizards quickly assumed combat readiness, and Jeming could clearly feel that in just an instant, the whole atmosphere within the plane changed.

The destination has been reached!

…

…

In the infinitely vast Chaotic Void, there exists a bright and peculiar plane known by its inhabitants as the “Ice and Flame Plane.”

This world, from its inception, was endowed with extraordinarily unique terrain and ecosystems.

The entire plane is divided into two by the permanent projections of two completely different Elemental Planes, resulting in two starkly contrasting ultimate landscapes.

Half of the plane is bathed in the eternal strong light of the Fire Elemental Plane projection.

This area essentially experiences perpetual daytime, with scorching light evaporating all moisture and the air filled with the scent of sulfur and scorching heat.

The barren ground features fiery red hot sand and jagged black rocks everywhere, dotted with smoking volcanic mountains rising and falling like festering sores on the earth, always ready to erupt with devastating magma.

The temperature here is so high that it can easily melt steel.

This region is named “Flame Sun Realm” by the native inhabitants.

In stark contrast to the Flame Sun Realm is the other half of the plane, which is eternally immersed in the endless dim light of the Water Elemental Plane projection.

Here, it is perpetually night, with only ice and snow, and bone-chilling winds.

Heavy snowflakes fall unceasingly, painting the world in pure white, and the piercing cold wind freezes all living things.

There’s no light except for the weak fluorescence emitted by unusual plants occasionally found in crevices.

This area is known as the “Frost Dark Realm.”

Standing like a scar between these two extreme worlds is a vast and ancient mountain range.

This mountain range is not composed of ordinary rocks but is formed by the fierce clash of two elemental energies, resulting in crystals and mineral veins, filled with violent and chaotic energy fields.

Only a few specially evolved creatures dare to venture within.

This mountain range serves as the natural dividing line between the Flame Sun Realm and the Frost Dark Realm, as well as a buffer zone for the two extreme civilizations.

On such a unique plane, naturally, there emerged two completely different intelligent beings.

The rulers of the Flame Sun Realm are enormous Magma Giants.

Their bodies consist of flowing Cores of Magma and solid volcanic rock, with skin as red as magma, emanating intense heat, and eyes like burning volcanoes.

They possess tremendous strength, capable of effortlessly moving hundreds of tons of rock, and are naturally immune to fire and high temperatures.

Their civilization is built around volcanoes, they feed on magma and draw power from flames.

Conversely, the dominant creatures of the Frost Dark Realm are yeti-like beings covered with long, white fur resembling frost and snow, with bodies that seem a mix of a horse’s lower half and a bear’s upper half.

They are strong and sturdy, their four hooves leave no trace in the snow, with sharp ears like a dog’s and powerful bear-like arms.

They are naturally adapted to extreme cold, capable of absorbing the power of Ice Elements and even devouring darkness.

Their civilization is established deep in the glaciers, residing in massive ice caves or castles carved from ice and snow, they feed on frozen creatures and draw power from ice.

The Magma Giants and Yetis, these two drastically different yet equally powerful creatures, have continued their existence in the Ice and Flame Plane for countless years.

They have always been at odds with each other, engaging in wars for dominance of the world since their inception.

The brutal war has raged for countless years near the Boundary Mountains, with blood and fire, ice and wailing, intertwining as the main theme of the Ice and Flame Plane.

However, despite the ongoing conflict, neither side has been able to truly defeat the other.

The reason is simple—neither side can adapt to the other’s environment.

Once the Magma Giants leave the scorching environment of the Flame Sun Realm, their bodies gradually cool down and their movements slow.

On the other hand, when the Yetis step into the Flame Sun Realm, they suffer from the extreme heat, causing their life energy to quickly fade.

This causes their wars, no matter how fierce, to always be confined near the Boundary Mountains, unable to deeply strike into each other’s core territories.

This stalemate has persisted to this day.

At this moment, in the most central region of the Flame Sun Realm, at the top of a towering giant active volcano, surrounded by endless magma, the palace resounded with loud bubbling sounds.

Hot steam filled the hall, forming twisted mirages.

In the core magma pool of the palace lies a private domain of the Magma Giant King, where the lava is heated up to thousands of degrees, enough to instantly melt metal.

A Magma Giant over ten meters tall was soaking comfortably inside, treating the entire magma pool as the most comfortable hot spring.

The boiling magma flowed over his body, nurturing it with a pleasing sizzling sound.

He closed his eyes tightly, immersing himself in this ultimate comfort and power.

He was the monarch of the Flame Sun Realm, the mighty Sixth Level creature, King Karamos, commanding a legion of millions of Magma Giants.

Suddenly, the sound of hurried and frantic footsteps shattered the tranquility.

A Magma Giant acting as a guard crashed noisily into this private palace, emanating a heatwave more anxious than usual.

“Your Majesty! A celestial anomaly!” the guard Giant roared, barely suppressing his fear.

Karamos gradually opened his eyes, glaring fiercely at the guard. His voice rumbled like a volcano on the verge of erupting: “What’s the clamor?”

“Your Majesty! The sky… the sky has torn open!” The guard Giant shook as he pointed to the ceiling of the palace, “A huge pitch-black rift! We observed… observed at the very center of the rift, there’s something that looks like a round yellow rock!”

Because of the difference in distance, the guard Giant couldn’t accurately gauge the size of the Ship Plane, instinctively mistaking the plane projection for a rock.

To him, it seemed as if a massive black eye suddenly appeared in the sky, with the yellow rock being the pupil, staring at their world!

“What nonsense?!”

Upon hearing this, King Karamos’s face twisted with irritation.

He stood up abruptly, magma cascaded down from his body, splattering onto the ground with a piercing hiss that instantly covered the palace floor.

Unable to tolerate his guard’s incoherent words any longer, the Magma Giant King Karamos decided to see the truth for himself.

He raised a hand and blasted open the palace ceiling. As countless fragments and lava rained down, King Karamos’s gigantic figure shot straight into the sky, exposed beneath the scorching canopy of the Flame Sun Realm.

His enormous magma eyes locked onto the black “eye” above in the sky, as described by the guard.

Sure enough, the spatial rift was so massive it stretched across nearly half the sky, yet the “Ship” Plane in the center seemed somewhat smaller in comparison.

It blocked part of the scorching sunlight, casting a shadow over the ground below.

King Karamos shockingly realized that the immense rift and the central “eye-like” “rock” were even slightly larger than the sun eternally suspended in their Plane’s sky!

Such an anomaly has never been seen in tens of thousands of years!

A sense of unprecedented crisis surged within King Karamos’s heart.

“Prophet! Immediately! Come see me now!” He roared with fury, echoing throughout the Flame Sun Realm.

Soon, his chief Prophet, a gaunt Magma Giant with ancient runes engraved upon his skin, arrived tremulously, escorted by guards.

He placed his Magma Hand on the King’s chest, feeling the celestial anomaly with closed eyes.

A moment later, the Prophet suddenly opened his eyes, filled with fear.

“Your… Your Majesty!” The Prophet’s voice was old and trembling, “The ancient prophecy… it’s true. In a few days… enemies will descend from the sky… they will… tear our world apart!”

“Enemies?!” King Karamos’s rage exploded.

His first thought was of his perennial nemesis, the “White-haired Monsters” of the Frost Dark Realm!

Those cold creatures had spent countless years trying to infiltrate the Flame Sun Realm.

“This must be the handiwork of those damned White-haired Monsters! They want to use this trick to attack our world from above!” King Karamos roared.

Magma surged out, dripping from him with each burst of anger.

Without hesitation, his massive body trembled mightily, then issued the most urgent command: “Pass my order! Gather all the legions! Prepare for battle! Assemble at the Boundary Mountains! We will burn those trying to sneak attack from the sky to ashes!”

Meanwhile, at the other end of the Ice and Flame Plane in the Frost Dark Realm, shrouded in eternal night, the same earth-shattering anomaly was discovered.

Deep within the realm, inside a vast glacier, at the core of the grand Ice Crystal Royal Court, in the Cold Lake sculpted from millennia-old ice, the gigantic “King of Yeti” Aglon also learned about the same information from his guards.

Without a doubt, he reacted the same way as Magma Giant King Karamos.

“Summon all the clan warriors! Assemble the legions!” King Aglon roared, his cry resonating within the glacier, triggering an avalanche-like sound, “Prepare for battle! We must bury these stones daring to invade from the sky forever beneath our snow and ice!”

Thus, without any awareness of each other, the two arch-nemeses of the Ice and Flame Plane—the Magma Giant King Karamos, and the King of Yeti Aglon—both marshaled their grand armies, preparing for the imminent war.
