The creeping sense of dread among the gathered Sages had a clear origin—the mere mention of the Eclipse Battlefield. This battlefield was notoriously known as a Legendary-Tier combat zone, a realm of danger reserved primarily for beings at or near the Legendary rank.
While some Half-Step Legends braved such terrifying places to push themselves to the limit and trigger their evolution, regular Sages who dared venture there rarely survived more than a day or two.
The pressure of overwhelming battles and the intense Law fluctuations were simply too great. In such a place, even the strongest of this group would be hard-pressed to guarantee their survival, much less ordinary Sages.
