At the moment when the teleportation magic engulfed Kaecilius, it immediately shrank.
The other sorcerers still didn't understand what was happening when, in the next second, a dazzling and brilliant golden beam of light suddenly descended from the sky, like divine judgment. It blasted a cloud of yellow sand into the air, and the terrifying heat instantly incinerated these sorcerers to ashes, completely merging them into the endless desert.
The high temperature melted the sand in the area into crystalline forms.
Although Kaecilius quickly closed the portal, a portion of the intense heat still transmitted through the slight gap, scorching the left side of his body.
The pain from the burns twisted Kaecilius's face, nearly breaking his consciousness.
Fortunately, a surge of dark energy swept over, healing the half of his body that was burnt.
However, half of his clothes were burned away, making him appear somewhat comical. Kaecilius ignored this; after his body recovered, he continuously and tirelessly reopened the teleportation magic.
This time, he appeared on a street in Moscow, Russia.
People and vehicles were coming and going. At that moment, the sky was gloomy, and it was raining heavily. The downpour, striking Kaecilius, who was half-dressed, attracted the attention of many around him, especially two police officers with umbrellas who noticed him and hurried over, drawing their guns and shouting.
However, just as they took a step forward, time and space seemed to freeze at that moment.
The pouring rain from the sky froze in mid-air, the splashes from the tires of distant cars driving through puddles stopped in the air, and a man and woman under an umbrella frozen in their gesture of dodging in surprise.
The entire street fell into an eerie silence, completely still.
Kaecilius's pupils contracted as he saw a figure like Death at the end of the street, and the radiant gold about to burst forth. Without hesitation, he opened the portal and left. As he departed, the frozen clock resumed ticking, and everything returned to normal.
No one noticed this miraculous scene.
Afterward, Kaecilius continuously opened the teleportation magic, traveling to every corner of the world within a minute.
Finally, deep in the Antarctic Circle, the extreme cold turned the area into a daytime-like landscape, filled with snow and deathly silence—coldness was the theme of the Antarctic Circle.
Kaecilius hid in an ice cave, ignoring the sub-zero temperatures, allowing his body to gradually turn blue and purple, with muscle necrosis setting in. He only used a trace of dark magic to maintain his basic bodily functions.
He was in a very pitiful state, but Kaecilius knew he needed to survive despite his pitiful state.
He realized how terrifying that man was.
At this moment, a trace of fear for that man finally rose in his heart.
That man was so powerful that Kaecilius couldn't resist him at all. If it weren't for the great master Dormammu's help, giving him more dark power, he wouldn't even have the chance to escape and would end up like the sorcerers who had already died.
He continuously opened the teleportation magic, changing locations, but the opponent could always accurately find his position and, at the moment he left, drop that death-symbolizing golden curtain of light.
Many times, he almost died. In the most dangerous instance, his entire body nearly melted, and it was Dormammu who forcibly pulled him back from the brink of death.
Once, he thought he was clever by teleporting to a densely populated city, but as soon as he stepped into the city, the teleportation magic automatically reverted. If he hadn't reacted in time, he might have been cut in half by the teleportation array.
It was at this moment that Kaecilius realized the opponent was toying with him.
He had been angry, but more than that, he was terrified.
He truly felt fear towards that man, and he regretted it. He shouldn't have rashly intercepted Bi Xiao. He now realized how foolish it was to be jealous of Bi Xiao.
He also understood why the Ancient One said Bi Xiao was the most outstanding sorcerer.
But it was too late.
Because the footsteps of death had come again.
He hid in the ice cellar, using the low temperature to conceal his life force, using dark magic to hide his aura, but still couldn't evade Bi Xiao. The golden light flooded the originally white land.
Kaecilius, with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and, through the ice, saw a vague tall figure standing on the sky, with thousands of golden vortices like mirrors behind him. In the next moment, the golden light like fireworks burst forth, falling to the ground.
This time, Kaecilius really had no strength to run anymore. He closed his eyes, waiting for death to come. He feared death, but when it came, he felt a sense of peace.
Perhaps fatigue and exhaustion had drained his thoughts.
Maybe the cold had numbed his brain.
But just as death approached, a terrifying surge of black energy enveloped Kaecilius. Accompanied by the contraction of the dark energy, Kaecilius completely disappeared.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Terrifying explosions echoed through the Antarctic, and the brilliant blasts destroyed and melted the ice layers within dozens of kilometers, creating huge waves that swept in all directions. Many scientific research stations established by scientific teams in the Antarctic Circle were at risk, posing a disaster for the researchers there.
Yet, in the sky, Bi Xiao remained indifferent, allowing the waves to surge.
He floated in the sky, gazing downward, feeling the dark energy. With a thought, the world changed, and the waves that should have caused a disaster disappeared, leaving the peaceful white land as it was.
It turned out that at the last moment, he had transformed the entire area into a mirror world. The terrible disaster existed only in the mirror space and wouldn't affect the real world.
"Hiding deeply enough, even I can't find you."
Bi Xiao's super intuition instantly covered the entire Earth, sweeping every corner with his vast mental power, but he couldn't find any trace of Kaecilius.
Clearly, Dormammu had used Kaecilius as a bridge, descending dark power and will across dimensions, hiding him.
A Demon God at least of single-universe level, his mastery of dark magic far surpassed Bi Xiao's. If he intended to hide someone, it was normal for Bi Xiao not to find him. He might have even teleported Kaecilius to somewhere outside Earth.
