Chapter 737: The Dust Settles

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

"If I managed to gain some time, the chance of finding the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation would have greatly increased. But no one was willing to do this, and I was running out of time, so I could only use the fastest method to put it into action.

"As long as I controlled the Dark Elven Clan, I would be able to find the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation and become the savior of the Dark Elves. I wasn't wrong!

"That damned outsider killed my son, I only wanted to take my revenge. Besides this, everything I did was for the sake of the clan!"

Lin Yun was looking from the side and sneered, "Haha…"

Booing echoed in the surroundings after the 3rd Elder spoke. Many Dark Elves felt that the 3rd Elder was being absurdly shameless. The Elder who had been the most serious about the laws was now the craziest person, and he was shameless, so shameless that the average Dark Elf couldn't bear with it.

The 2nd Elder was boiling, but he ended up coldly staring at the 3rd Elder and pointing at him while saying, "Broust, you are already insane. You caused a revolt, stirring up internal strife, and then you colluded with the sinister Evil Dragon Warlord to make our clan sink into destruction. You are already crazy and reckless for power.

"What did Mafa Merlin do? I saw it with my own eyes! Mafa Merlin returned the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation, and he even made it undergo rebirth. Since you already knew about that, why didn't you stop at that point? Weren't you doing everything for the sake of the clan? Why did you still rebel and cause infighting even after knowing that the Life Pattern Crystal had recovered, even attracting the Evil Dragon Warlord?"

The 3rd Elder was left speechless, but after a while, he went back to blaming Lin Yun. "I was blindsided by hatred, I only wanted to kill that damned outsider to avenge Jers and forgot about everything else!"

The 3rd Elder was about to continue when the Great Elder suddenly spoke.

"Broust, I'm really disappointed in you, you are incorrigible. You wanted to bury the entire Dark Elven Race for your own selfish desires. I saw it with my own eyes.

"In order to stay alive, you were ready to trade the lives of all your clansmen, and even exchange the life of our benefactor. You no longer deserve to be called the 3rd Elder of the Dark Elven Clan, let alone a Dark Elf."

The 3rd Elder wanted to interject, but the Great Elder loudly shouted, "Shut up! You really think I don't know what you have done over the years? Why do you think I placed the 2nd Elder in charge of the clan while I entered the Lightless Dreamland?

"The most fervent supporter of clan's laws? The most upright Elder?

"Nonsense!

"What has your foolish son been doing over the years? Plundering people's belongings, harming our women, secretly murdering the clan's talents, stealing the clans' valuable resources, and countless other things…

"If our clan hadn't been facing a crisis all this time, I would have killed this kind of trash first, even without direct evidence!

"As for you, the so-called faithful supporter of the clan's law, what did you do? To cover for your son's offenses, you threw out all kinds of groundless accusations at the people he harmed or used your power to threaten them.

"The Dark Elves who offended you or refused to comply were expelled from the clan for all kinds of reasons. Moreover, the places they were exiled to were forbidden areas where their deaths were certain! You really think I didn't know?

"Because of the disappearance of the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation, time was running out and I didn't want the clan to sink into turmoil, so I endured. But I really didn't expect you to reach such a deranged state.

"You think I didn't know about your secret connection with the Ash Beastmen? In order to keep you from acting up, I feigned ignorance so that the clan would remain steady while I went into the Lightless Dreamland.

"I really regret, I regret not having made you pay the price for your offenses earlier!"

The Great Elder's angry shouts dumbfounded the 3rd Elder. He hadn't been aware that the Great Elder had already known about everything.

The surrounding Dark Elves, on the other hand, were in an uproar. Many of them had loved ones destroyed by that father and son duo and were weeping bitterly. Each and every one of them wanted to rush to the square to kill the 3rd Elder.

The scene instantly became chaotic. The 3rd Elder stood in the center of the square with an extremely pale face as he looked towards the crowd of angry Dark Elves with a blank expression. It even felt like if the Great Elder weren't there, these furious Dark Elves would have already rushed up to kill him.

These emotional Dark Elves were held back by others, and slowly, the situation calmed down, but all the Dark Elves were hatefully looking at the 3rd Elder.

At this time, the Great Elder slowly stood up with a book in his hands. This was the Dark Elven Clan's Law Codex, which contained the rules of the Dark Elven Clan. The Great Elder solemnly put his hand on the Law Codex and pronounced the verdict.

"I, Kaneji Jiali, declare this sentence as the Great Elder of the Dark Elven Clan. Broust, you are guilty of betraying your clan!

"Starting today, you'll be stripped of your Dark Elven status, position, and power. In view of your former status as an Elder and the seriousness of your crime, you'll not be getting the death sentence… You'll be imprisoned in the Lightless Forbidden Area for all eternity!"

When the Great Elder's hand left the Law Codex, the surrounding Dark Elves started cheering. Everyone angrily shouted, venting their feelings as the applause echoed like a raging sea.

"I disagree! I disagree! No! It wasn't like this! I did it for the sake of the clan! I'm the Dark Elven Clan's hero! You don't understand, it's all because of that damned outsider, he is the sinner! He is the sinner! Aaaahhh!"

The 3rd Elder's face was filled with fear as he frantically shouted. He tried to struggle free before suddenly starting to scream.

The magic patterns on his body shone one after another. They were red like molten iron, and a large amount of mana rushed out.

Then, they saw the magic patterns dimming once again. These magic patterns that were originally filled with fierce power were turning into scars, one after another.

His magic patterns were completely crippled.

The power of the magic patterns had completely disappeared, and they only left deep marks on his body. These scars were like holes, allowing the 3rd Elder's mana to quickly flow out of him. After a few seconds, the 3rd Elder's mana had run dry.

The Great Elder waved his arm, and a crack suddenly appeared in the sky. A pitch-black vortex surrounded that crack, slowly transforming it into a large hole.

There was not the slightest bit of light coming from the hole. It looked like the maw of a giant creature.

All the Dark Elves turned silent when that hole appeared, and many of them even had fearful expressions, as if they had seen something terrifying.

The 3rd Elder let out a fearful scream, begging for forgiveness, but his body slowly rose up and flew towards the hole…

"Great Elder, we are close brothers, you can't do this to me! Don't! I don't want to go!"

The Great Elder looked at the 3rd Elder and let out a soft sigh. "Broust, it was because we had once been like brothers that I kept indulging you and let you make so many mistakes. But regardless of who they are, no one can be forgiven for betraying the Dark Elves and having the intent of destroying the Dark Elven Race!"

The 3rd Elder's face was already distorting in fear, and the closer he got to that entrance, the denser the fear in his eyes was. Ultimately, when he reached the hole, the 3rd Elder's expression became unfocused as he was scared senseless…

Lin Yun frowned, somewhat doubtful. 'If the Great Elder isn't executing the 3rd Elder, what sort of punishment is this? The surrounding Dark Elves don't seem to think that this punishment is lacking. They all look as if their hatred was sufficiently vented. They also seem to be afraid of that hole…

'Lightless Forbidden Area, could it be related to the Lightless Dreamland?'

The 2nd Elder seemed to have noticed Lin Yun's misgivings and softly explained, "The Lightless Forbidden Area is the place where the Great Elder had been slumbering before he came back. The effect of entering the Lightless Dreamland is best there, and moreover, no one can come to disturb you in there. But only by breaking through the Heaven realm could you come out from that place. Unless someone was making their last push towards the Heaven realm, no Dark Elf would enter that place. Countless Dark Elves that were 9th Rank Archmage entered that place, but few ever came out.

"Thus, the Lightless Forbidden Area is the Dark Elves' greatest prison. After entering there, unless they advance to the Heaven realm, no one can return.

"The Great Elder deprived Broust of his Dark Elven identity and his magic patterns were already completely crippled. He would never be able to come out of the Lightless Dreamland. He can only suffer endless torture and endless fear within, up until his death.

"This punishment is the most severe punishment of the Dark Elven Clan!"

Lin Yun had an understanding expression on his face. It was indeed a very frightening punishment. Death was never the most severe punishment for Dark Elves… Suffering was!

After entering that place, he would suffer endless torture and wish he was dead.

The 3rd Elder's ending satisfied everyone. Every Dark Elf cheered in the square, and the Dark Elves who had been persecuted were weeping.

As the trial of the former 3rd Elder ended, the 2nd Elder seemed to recall something and promptly pulled the Great Elder over.

"Great Elder, this is the savior of our Race, High Mage Merlin. He might only be a 9th Rank High Mage, but he was able to hold on for a long time against me without falling to a disadvantage."

The praise made Lin Yun feel a bit embarrassed. He'd had an unfair advantage over the 2nd Elder previously. "2nd Elder is cracking a joke, you went easy on me…"

Chapter 738: Prophecy

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The 2nd Elder laughed for a bit before sighing. "Great Elder, you don't know how much Mafa Merlin helped us. He was accused of crimes by the 3rd Elder when he just arrived, and when he found out that our clan's Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation was missing, he took the initiative to help us find it.

"I then learnt that in order to find the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation, Mafa Merlin went through countless dangers and even fought against the Ash Beastman Tribe's Flame Dragon Warlord, and he also nearly lost his life in a natural disaster.

"Later, he brought back the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation, but he wanted to shatter the Life Pattern Crystal for some reason. I was confused and felt that this couldn't be allowed, so I fought Mafa Merlin…

"Fortunately, he is very powerful and managed to shatter the Life Pattern Crystal anyways, making it undergo rebirth, saving our race from that century of disasters.

"Then, Broust rebelled, and Mafa Merlin used the power of the Life Pattern Crystal to save me. When the Evil Dragon Warlord appeared, it was also Mafa Merlin that helped us stall for a while. If not for Mafa Merlin, the small world would have already been breached and the clan would have already been destroyed by the time you came out of your seclusion.

"This is the great benefactor of our Dark Elven Race…"

The 2nd Elder was joyfully smiling, not trying to hide his mistake at all as he resolutely boasted about Lin Yun's feats…

The 2nd Elder just reached the end of his account when the Great Elder suddenly knelt in front of Lin Yun with both hands on the ground, his fingers intersecting to form a rune as he loudly shouted, "Master! We have been waiting for you!"

The Great Elder's movements scared Lin Yun, startling him into rushing out of the way.

'What's going on? The Great Elder is a genuine Heaven Rank powerhouse! Even if he only just advanced to the Heaven Rank, it's still the Heaven Rank. Doing this kind of action while also shouting master… Is that something he uses so casually?

'Even if I saved the Dark Elves, there was surely no need to go so far, right?'

Lin Yun dodged to the side, unwilling to accept the Great Elder's greeting. A Heaven Rank expert suddenly kneeling in front of you and calling you master… Anyone with brains would know that it couldn't be so simple.

'Moreover, the Dark Elven Race was a stubborn race seething with pride and arrogance. It's impossible for them to have their Heaven Rank powerhouse greet their benefactor as their master…'

Lin Yun moved aside, but the Great Elder kept facing him as he kowtowed. After a while, the 2nd Elder asked, "Great Elder, what's going on? What's it all about?"

This time, the Great Elder stood up with excitement and suddenly understood that his actions were a bit scary. It would only baffle the others if he didn't explain.

Not only was Lin Yun startled, but even the Dark Elves who had yet to leave were terrified. Just what was the Great Elder doing?

The Dark Elves would do their best to repay their great benefactors, but they wouldn't go so far as to let their Great Elder, who had just reached the Heaven Rank, treat him as his master.

After standing up, the Great Elder's face had insuppressible excitement.

He glanced at the surroundings, somewhat in disbelief, before taking a deep breath and saying, "Master, I'm unworthy, I didn't explain…"

Lin Yun promptly waved his arm. "Stop! This title can't be carelessly used, tell me what's going on first!"

The Great Elder pondered for a bit before slowly bringing it up. "Our Dark Elven Race has a prophecy…"

The 2nd Elder was startled by this. "Great Elder, you mean that prophecy? One day, a man holding a blazing scepter will come to the God Nation and solve the curse of the Dark Elven Race… That one?"

The Great Elder nodded.

"Yes, that one, but that's not it. Only a portion of the prophecy was spread within the clan. There was actually a line about the man's blazing scepter having boundless runes revolving at its tip.

"But the complete prophecy is only known by every generation's Great Elder. This is related to a huge secret, and the clan couldn't allow the complete prophecy to spread.

"Our ancestor left behind a prophecy that one day, far off in the future, countless years after the Wisdom God's fall, there would be one person coming to the God Nation. That person would guide the lost Dark Elven Race towards glory!

"The most important part was that this person was the master of our Dark Elven Race, and not just of our race. The God Nation's three races, whether it was the Dark Elves, the Ash Beastmen, or the Firerock Dwarves, that person would be the master of the three major races!

"In the prophecy, our master would lead the Dark Elves, who had been trapped in the God Nation for countless years, out of the God Nation and into Noscent. There, under Master's lead, the Dark Elves would regain the power and the glory of the past…

"The legendary Noscent world, it is said to be the center of the world and the place were countless Gods were born. The Pureblood Elves, Dark Elves, Chromatic Dragons, all the powerful lifeforms were born there.

"It was also said that we will only be able to go further in Noscent. Staying in this lost God Nation would only be staying locked up until our deaths… There have been countless Dark Elven Heaven Mages in the past, but now, we can only stand a step away from the Heaven Rank and look up in hope. No matter how talented someone is, there is only a small probability of them advancing to the Heaven Rank. Even just breaking through to the Heaven Rank is the limit…

"I can feel it. When I advanced to the Heaven Rank, I could feel that this world is dying. The Wisdom God is very powerful, but after so many years, the God Nation also started deteriorating, to the point that it is already restricting us. If we don't follow Master, we will end up extinct, and so will the other two races…"

The Great Elder spoke quite a bit, but his face was full of longing and hope for the future, and it was the same for the 2nd Elder.

"Noscent became a legend to our race. Every generation of Elders would hear the previous generation talk about that mystical and formidable world.

"In the legends, Noscent was boundless, terrifyingly big to the point of being limitless. In those legends, only the Gods could find the edges of Noscent. It also had endless resources and several unknown powerful races. There was also a frightening number of Heaven Rank powerhouses, each with the power to destroy a world.

"Moreover, there are boundless Planar Paths left in Noscent. That's a world completely different from this God Nation, a plane full of countless resources that don't exist here, countless valuable materials that could only be found in ancient records here, but might be quite cheap in Noscent.

"It's not like the God Nation, where danger could pop out any moment. There wouldn't be a food shortage for us over there… Instead, there would be countless delicacies, as well as an extremely dense amount of mana suitable for our survival."

The 2nd Elder and the Great Elder had longing on their faces, while Lin Yun was in a daze, feeling that the Noscent they'd heard of and the one he knew were different.

Yes, even Gods lived in Noscent during the Mythological Era. But at the end of the era of Gods, Noscent encountered a huge calamity, and it met another one at the end of the Nesser Dynasty.

Countless species became extinct, until ten thousand years later, when Noscent once again rose sharply. and the power of magic was displayed to its pinnacle once again. That was the era of powerhouses and the era where the world was developed to its peak…

The Great Elder and the 2nd Elder started revealing secrets that had been hidden for many years, making the surrounding Dark Elves go crazy.

Sky?

What was the sky? A boundlessly tall sky whose height was only known to Gods, and it was blue!

How could it be? Such a thing never existed in the God Nation, how could there be something even bigger than the Wisdom Tree?

There was also a sea, whose size might also only be known to Gods. It was a sea completely filled with water. How could there be such a thing?

Only water, and it was unknown how deep or how big it was. How could Noscent's people survive with so much water? Wouldn't they drown?

And even the Gods didn't know how deep the land was, it could be as big as several hundred God Nations, no, several thousands… No one knew.

The Great Elder's blushed. He was originally very excited, and with the 2nd Elder chiming in, he was even more certain.

No one understood better than them that the God Nation had turned into a prison after the death of the Wisdom God, a huge prison that couldn't be exited. While the people from the outside generally couldn't enter, only those whose power was comparable to a God's could enter!

There had never been a human appearing in the God Nation, so it was very likely to be the person in the prophecy. Only the Dark Elves' Master could enter the God Nation with such a puny force!

"Master, I represent the Dark Elves to vow loyalty and devotion to you!"

The Great Elder knelt on the ground and used the highest etiquette of the Dark Elves, with both hands, both legs, and his head touching the ground.

In an instant, the 2nd Elder also followed him and knelt down. The emotional Elders next to them also knelt, and this caused a chain reaction. The Dark Elves were like pious believers, pious and fanatical.

They had faith in their ancestor's prophecy, to the point where they already forgot about themselves and would unconditionally follow the prophecy. This was the faith that came from having previously followed the Wisdom God. It was anchored deep within their souls.

Chapter 739: Stone Tablet Fragment

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Only by following the prophecy could the Dark Elves regain their glory. This was their only guarantee for survival.

Lin Yun looked at this group of Dark Elves and really didn't know what to say. Despite having lived three lives and having knowledge transcending this era, he had never heard of the Dark Elves having a second master.

"Great Elder…"

The Great Elder knelt on the ground with fear. "Master, please call me Jiali, please accept that you are the master of the Dark Elves. We spent a century without being able to find a single trace of the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation, but after you came, you only needed a bit of time to return the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation and make the Life Pattern Crystal undergo rebirth. This is the strongest proof!"

The 2nd Elder also chimed in, "Yes, Master, you saved the Dark Elves at their most critical time! This is in accordance with the prophecy, it definitely couldn't be wrong. You are our Master!"

After the mention of the Life Pattern Crystal, the Great Elder seemed to remember something.

"Master, please follow me!"

Lin Yun followed the Great Elder into the Life Pattern Crystal's small world, and the Great Elder pointed at the crystal before respectfully saying, "Master, please put away the Life Pattern Crystal. In the prophecy, only the Dark Elves' master could receive the Life Pattern Crystal. If you don't believe me, please have a go."

Lin Yun slightly frowned, pondering.

He had originally conjectured that the Great Elder only wanted to borrow him to leave the God Nation, but he hadn't expected that he was going to give him the Life Pattern Crystal, which was known to be the source of life and power of the Dark Elves.

This meant that the fate of the Dark Elves would be placed in his hands. That was a true vow of allegiance.

Lin Yun walked to the front of the Life Pattern Crystal and wondered where he should put it. He thought for a bit before chanting a word, and a Planar Path appeared in front of him. And as he reached towards the Life Pattern Crystal, something happened.

The entire Life Pattern Crystal's world shrank and slowly turned illusory. It only took a few seconds for the small world to shimmer and shrink away before entering the Life Pattern Crystal.

The place where the Life Pattern Crystal's small world overlapped with the God Nation also dissipated and Lin Yun's surroundings became empty, only the seven-colored Life Pattern Crystal remained.

And at this time, the Life Pattern Crystal flew off the ground and entered Lin Yun's Natural Demiplane. Without Lin Yun even controlling it, the Life Pattern Crystal settled in the most barren corner of the Demiplane before its world unfolded and overlapped with that area.

The entire Demiplane started changing, and the small world, which was over a hundred kilometers wide, started expanding again. The world's Laws also developed slightly faster.

That desolate corner of the Natural Demiplane turned into a lush and flourishing forest with the Life Pattern Crystal remaining in its depths.

The Great Elder, who was behind Lin Yun, was stunned as he saw that scene.

"You… You already have a plane with developed Laws! Master, it's really you! It's definitely you! Apart from the Dark Elves' Master, no one could control the Life Pattern Crystal!"

As he watched this happen, Lin Yun could no longer deny it even if he wanted to. All the Dark Elves were kneeling behind him, their faces filled with fanatical expressions.

He held the Dark Elves' lifeline, and the powerhouses of the Dark Elven Race, one of whom was a Heaven Rank Mage, had already acknowledged it. Lin Yun was no longer skeptical and unhesitantly nodded. With a serious tone, he told the Great Elder, "I, Mafa Merlin, accept the Dark Elves' allegiance!"

Instantly, the entire area echoed with cheers.

If not suppressed by the Great Elder, these crazy Dark Elves might have truly lost their minds. Following the disappearance of the Life Pattern Crystal's small world, even the damage dealt to the crystal itself was restored, and the weak state of all Dark Elves disappeared. They even felt a bit stronger, as if their foundation had strengthened. Experiencing this feeling for the first time made the Dark Elves go wild.

With great difficulties, the Dark Elves were completely dismissed and Lin Yun found the opportunity to ask Jiali the question he was most concerned about.

"Jiali, do the Dark Elves have a path leading to the peak of the Wisdom Tree?"

Jiali nodded with a troubled expression. "Master, there is such a path, but it is currently blocked…"

"Blocked?" Lin Yun exclaimed.

This was something important relating to Constance's skull. If he hadn't needed Constance's skull, he would have already advanced to the Archmage realm. He had been suppressing his power all along and would have already broken through at any moment if he was careless. He didn't even dare to meditate lately because he wouldn't be able to keep it suppressed if he wasn't careful during meditation.

But he just heard that this passage leading to the top of the Wisdom Tree was already blocked. How could he accept that?

He had racked his brain, spent a lot of effort, and taken so many risks, all that for Constance's skull. But even now when he was hearing that it couldn't be obtained, how could he give up on it!?

Just as Lin Yun was about to ask for some details, the 2nd Elder rushed over. "Great Elder, it's not good, the Ash Beastman Tribe's Tribal Chief and the Firerock Dwarf Clan's Clan Head came together…"

The Great Elder bowed towards Lin Yun and said, "Master, please wait a moment. I'll handle this matter."

But before the Great Elder could move, an angry voice loudly echoed, "Who dares block my path! F*ck off!"

A fierce and despotic aura spread from outside, and the three of them watched as two shadows entered the main hall.

One of them was a 2.5-meter-tall typical Ash Beastman with ash-gray skin covered with bloody scar-like magic patterns. Even his bald head and cheeks were covered in numerous magic patterns.

This tyrannical Ash Beastman was baring his scar-filled upper body and exposing terrifying, rock-like muscles. It was like his body was cast out of steel and his arms were as thick as Lin Yun's waist, while his clenched fists were almost comparable to an ordinary person's head.

Each step he took made the ground tremble, and just a twitch of his muscles was enough to make space faintly fluctuate around them.

One glance was enough to see that this guy's strength was terrifying…

Jiali's expression changed as he faintly said, "Gulidan, I didn't expect you to have also advanced to the Heaven Rank."

The Ash Beastman's Tribal Chief Gulidan was the most powerful Beastman among the past generations of Beastmen. His bloodline power was formidable, and he also possessed the casting abilities of the Ash Beastman Warlocks while being a powerful Sword Saint.

Moreover, it looked like his body was bursting with power to the point of making space fluctuate. He had definitely become a Heaven Sword Saint!

"Jiali! Don't think you are amazing because you luckily advanced to the Heaven Rank! If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll tear your Dark Elven Clan apart!"

Gulidan flew into a rage, the vibration of his voice making the entire hall shake. The surging power even caused spatial cracks to appear on Gulidan's body. But even these thin cracks were unable to injure Gulidan.

Gulidan's furious roar made the power of the Heaven Rank surge from his body and create gales. The surrounding space couldn't bear the heavy burden and distorted.

Jiali ignored Gulidan and turned to look at the person on the other side.

That person was less than 1.5 meters tall, but he was terrifyingly well-built. His entire body was like a lump of iron. He was also wearing a luxurious vest made of the softest level 39 Tiger's belly fur and had a long, fiery-red beard that was tied into three braids. His skin was deep red like it was heated up, and he indeed kept emitting heat as he stood on the spot, raising the temperature of the hall considerably.

Moreover, he was carrying a warhammer that was over a meter long on his back and stood there like a volcano, ready to burst with the most terrifying power at any time.

The Clan Head of the Firerock Dwarves, Harris!

"Harris, I wonder why you have come to the Dark Elven Clan. Aren't you usually delving in forging studies?"

Harris opened his eyes and snorted coldly, "Jiali, I hadn't expected you to also reach the Heaven Rank, but you have to give me an explanation. Why have your Dark Elves attacked our Firerock Dwarves? Don't think that we are easy to bully just because we aren't fond of wars!"

After saying those words, Harris stamped his foot and the ground started shaking violently. A web of cracks spread from under his foot and wisps of lightning started flickering on the warhammer he carried on his back, instantly emitting a powerful aura.

The roof of the hall was sent flying by that aura before disintegrating.

Jiali faced the two Heaven Rank powerhouses without a single bit of fear, smiling instead.

"Gulidan, Harris, don't worry too much about these trifling matters. Do you have your races' prophecies on you?"

Gulidan coldly snorted, "I naturally carry my Tribe's prophecy with me! This is a great secret concerning our Ash Beastman Race regaining its former glory, so as the Tribal Chief, I would naturally safeguard it at all times!"

Gulidan's tone wasn't very good, but he still suppressed his original anger. He wouldn't dare to be careless when it related to his Tribe's prophecy. He would have plenty of time to teach Jiali a lesson later. In any case, they were all stuck in this God Nation, so there was nowhere to run.

Harris noticed Jiali's assured appearance, recalled something as the prophecy was mentioned, and immediately took out a fragment of a stone tablet out.

Gulidan similarly took out a piece of a stone tablet, as did Jiali himself.

"What are you thinking?" Harris doubtfully asked.

Chapter 740: Calamity

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Jiali said with a serious expression, "Our three races' prophecies are carved into three pieces of a stone tablet, and parts of their contents are overlapping. They are also made of the same material."

Gulidan answered with disdain, "So what if the material is the same? Do you think the three fragments can be put together? You think our predecessors didn't try it?"

Although Harris didn't say anything, he had the same doubts.

Jiali smiled. "Gulidan, Harris, you both advanced to the Heaven Rank recently, didn't you? Do you still remember how long it had been since our clans had Heaven Rank powerhouses? No one was sure why no one could advance to that realm, but shouldn't you be able to understand now?"

Gulidan and Harris silently nodded. After advancing to the Heaven Rank, they knew that this wasn't due to their talent being insufficient, but rather because of this God Nation.

The God Nation was dying alongside the Wisdom Tree, slowly deteriorating. It was just that the Wisdom Tree's foundation was very good, making the rate of decay very slow, but it was enough to hinder them from advancing to the Heaven Rank.

Jiali faintly smiled. "Something happened in the God Nation recently, allowing the three of us to grab this rare opportunity to advance to the Heaven Rank, and I believe that it would also create a change in our three races' prophecies!"

Jiali tossed his fragment in the air.

Gulidan and Harris glanced at each other before also throwing their fragments into the air.

When the three fragments were close enough, something happened…

Rays of light burst out from the three fragments before turning into a sphere of blinding light that wrapped the fragments inside.

The Heaven Rank powerhouses relied on their formidable power to watch what was happening.

The three completely uneven pieces of stone that didn't look like they could fit into each other unexpectedly started fusing together and formed a new stone tablet.

It was a brand new stone tablet over 1.5 meters tall and almost a meter wide!

The characters of the original prophecies dissipated as a new prophecy was continuously being assembled.

Seeing this scene, the three Heaven Rank powerhouses couldn't help feeling pleasantly surprised, and they gathered their auras within their bodies in fear of disturbing the evolution of the prophecy.

The three of them even tacitly spread around the stone tablet in a triangular formation to protect it.

Slowly, the new prophecy appeared on the stone tablet.

But it wasn't made of ancient runes… It looked more like a screen…

The stone tablet floated in the air, and a silhouette appeared on the screen. It was a human wearing a mage robe, holding a scepter in his right hand and an ancient book in his left. Behind him, there was a huge shadow.

That huge shadow was emitting outstanding pressure even though it was only a picture.

Seeing this shadow, Jiali, Gulidan, and Harris couldn't help letting out in alarm, "Wisdom God!"

But the three Heaven Rank powerhouses suppressed their emotions and kept watching.

That man stood in front of a gate and reached his hand out to push it open, letting countless rays of light surge from that entrance.

They saw a completely different world on the other side of it. It was a world without boundaries.

Lin Yun recognized it with one glance: It was Noscent!

The light on the screen slightly dissipated, and the scene changed angles. Behind that person were countless Dark Elves, Ash Beastmen, and Firerock Dwarves.

The God Nation's three great races were all cheering and roaring with fierce momentum. Through this scene, the three Heaven Rank powerhouses could feel the happiness coming from their hearts.

At this time, the human, who had only shown his back, turned his head and held out his hand to suppress the cheers of the three great races, getting them to quiet down.

The scene then completely disappeared.

But at that time, Jiali, Gulidan, and Harris all turned their heads towards Lin Yun… because of the shock they got at the end. The person that turned and exposed his face looked exactly like Lin Yun.

Lin Yun was baffled, feeling rather bemused by was going on.

Jiali was very emotional. 'As expected! I knew I wasn't wrong, it's really Master! But I really didn't expect the prophecy to change and change from ancient runes into a screen, let alone showing Master's face so clearly!

'The Dark Elves can finally break through this huge cage!'

Gulidan and Harris watched Lin Yun very attentively. They had noticed Lin Yun when they came in, but they also felt puzzled.

How could a human appear there? But he seemed too weak and not worth paying attention to. But now that they discovered that Lin Yun was the person in the prophecy, the two of them were startled.

"Jiali, hurry up and explain! What's going on?"

"Jiali, what's going on? You definitely know something we don't!"

Jiali didn't hide anything and directly mentioned the Dark Elves' secret. "You should know that the prophecies our three great races obtained were different. The prophecy written on the Dark Elves' fragment was the most complete prophecy and had been hidden from the start.

"Our clan's ancestor once said that the hidden prophecy foretold that one day, a human would pass through the God Nation's barrier and reach this place, and he would bring us back to the land of our ancestors, Noscent!"

Gulidan immediately exploded when he heard that. "What! You mean that the gate that appeared in that scene led to the legendary world of Noscent? Haha, I knew it! When I saw that gate, I knew that it was the one in our Tribe's prophecy!"

Harris could hardly speak. He could hardly suppress his emotions, and his beard was trembling because of his excitement. With shivering hands, he took a flask of wine at his waist and cleanly drank it in one breath before calming down a bit.

The two of them couldn't help themselves.

Gulidan's muscles were shaking all over, and his eyes were fiercely watching Lin Yun. 'That human is the one that can lead us back to Noscent, Noscent world, ah! That legendary Noscent!

'Heavens! By our ancestors! I can actually fulfill the wishes of our ancestors and see Noscent with my own two eyes, I can personally step into Noscent's earth! Right, that was called earth?

'It was said that that place had endless grasslands on which the Wolf Riders could willfully rush about without even seeing their end, and the sky was said to be boundlessly tall and wide, which would allow the Wyvern Flying Riders to flutter freely in the sky.

'It was also said that they could eat and be satiated without even finishing their plates! Our tribe won't have to be famished anymore, no one would starve to death anymore, no more Ash Beastmen would turn thin and weak, like the Dark Elves, because of starvation.

'Most importantly, we'd be able to leave this damned God Nation, leave this damned cage!

'The brave warriors of the Ash Beastman Tribe would no longer die because they couldn't advance to the Heaven Rank, and I'd no longer be stuck in this realm anymore, allowing me to keep growing stronger!!'

Gulidan's eyes were red and looked just like a hungry wolf fiercely watching Lin Yun, making cold sweat trickle down Lin Yun's back.

Meanwhile, Harris was drooling while looking at Lin Yun.

'Noscent world, that legendary boundless world with endless resources. All the materials recorded in the Clan's records can be found there, and in large quantities!

'Our Clan only has three pieces of Meteorite Magic Iron remaining, and from what was written in the ancient records, that metal is no different from a stone picked up on the roadside in Noscent!

'And there are even more valuable materials in Noscent that would make a Dwarf ecstatic. The forging skills in that world of boundless materials must be formidable.

'Ever since I advanced to the Heaven Rank, there haven't been many new forging skills I was able to use. Wouldn't I be able to try them all in Noscent?

'This damned God Nation is so barren that even a chunk of Meteorite Magic Iron can't be found, it's impeding my progress! I can't fully use my skills, and it would be a disaster if it ended there.

'No, I must leave this cage, I must go to Noscent. I can't let my clansmen meet the wall of the Heaven Rank, and I also can't let them be restricted forever in terms of crafting materials.

'No matter the price, I have to lead my clansmen to leave this place and go to Noscent!'

Gulidan was staring with red eyes while Harris was giggling and drooling.

On the side, Jiali wasn't laughing at their expressions. No one understood the importance of being able to leave more than them. This was the only opportunity for these three great races to rise again, or it might be better to say that it was the only opportunity for the three Great Races to not go extinct in the future.

This was also the only opportunity for the three Heaven Rank powerhouses to keep getting stronger!

After reaching the Heaven Rank, they understood that this huge God Nation was, in fact, a huge cage!

It was a cage trapping the three great races!

Gulidan and Harris didn't take long before they recovered, and both of them were smiling broadly as they looked at Lin Yun.

Lin Yun felt even more cold sweat trickling down his back as he thought, 'Are these two really Heaven Rank powerhouses?'

But Lin Yun also understood how attractive Noscent's world was to these three races. It was a deadly temptation.

At this time, Jiali frowned and said, "But I remember the ancestor saying one more thing… He mentioned that when that day arrived, a calamity would also appear. But I don't understand."

Gulidan shook his head. "I also don't get it, what kind of disaster can baffle us in the God Nation now that we've advanced?"

"I can't think of it," Harrison said.

But before they could think about it, a loud roar echoed outside the clan.

The three Heaven Rank powerhouses had the sharpest senses and immediately reacted.

Chapter 741: Kill Them

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The Great Elder remained calm and waved his hand as a signal. At the same time, roars kept echoing within the Dark Elven Clan.

"Fight!"

Six ear-piercing sounds echoed as the arrows were shot into the sky, emitting an alarm that resonated throughout the entire Dark Elven Clan.

Lin Yun was a bit surprised and quickly flew into the air to observe.

On the horizon, he could see the Dark Elven Clan already surrounded by a large number of Ash Beastmen. Subconsciously, Lin Yun looked at the Tribal Chief of the Ash Beastmen, but he saw that the three Heaven Rank powerhouses had calm expressions.

Jiali didn't even criticize Gulidan, he only walked to the door of the hall and looked at the boundary of the Dark Elven Clan.

Lin Yun carefully observed and immediately found out that those Ash Beastmen were different from ordinary Ash Beastmen. They were wearing crude and heavy black iron armor, and wisps of black smoke fluttered on it. All the Ash Beastmen were covered by a layer of black smoke, and that smoke was different from the thick smoke that Abyssal power transformed into. It was obviously very faint, but it felt like it couldn't be seen through.

Moreover, all the Ash Beastmen had a faint blue light flickering in their eyes. Whether they were Demon Warlocks of Wolf Riders, their eyes had turned blue and gave others a very cold feeling. Even the eyes from the wolf mounts had changed from green to icy blue.

And after surrounding the Dark Elven Clan, these Ash Beastman immediately started attacking. The Ash Beastman with blue eyes and smoky bodies didn't even care about the Dark Elves' defenses and attacked with no regard for their own lives.

Seeing this, Lin Yun faintly frowned and couldn't help recalling when he met those Firerock Dwarves. Those normally cordial Firerock Dwarves turned into a group of destruction-loving lunatics… It didn't seem much different from these Ash Beastmen.

They were apparently influenced by some evil power. Lin Yun hadn't had time to study them carefully before, but he hadn't expected that apart from the Firerock Dwarves, there were so many Ash Beastmen that also got affected.

In addition to the Ash Beastman slaves holding crude weapons, there were also many elites. Those Ash Beastman Warriors wearing thick armor and sturdy weapons were following behind the slaves as they kept charging.

The reactivated Ancient War Tree defenses awakened and stopped the first wave of Ash Beastmen.

Over a hundred Ancient War Trees and Ancient Thorn Trees used their branches to form huge palms, and the ten-meter-tall arms swung over, sending ten to twenty Beastman slaves flying into the sky with one slap. A little under half of these Beastmen died from having their bones shattered by the impact.

Then, the Ancient War Trees used their huge arms to pluck huge fruits condensed from their branches and ruthlessly smashed them at the Ash Beastman troops.

The fruits were over a meter long and looked like they had green skin with a metallic luster, but under the extreme power of the Ancient War Trees, they were thrown at a terrifying speed and exploded when they reached the ranks of the Ash Beastmen. The thick and sticky cyan fluids from the fruits burnt from the friction.

Four to five of those slaves would be crushed to death from each green fruit, and the igniting liquid that burst out of it set large areas on fire.

Lin Yun frowned, seeing that the situation wasn't very good.

The Ancient War Tree tossing those green fruits full of thick, burning oil meant that the trees were already counterattacking. If they could maintain their defenses without this, the Ancient War Trees definitely wouldn't use this method. The amount of such fruit was limited, so they wouldn't use them unless the pressure was too great.

One green inflammable fruit after another was thrown forward, turning the surroundings into a sea of fire and instantly slightly slowing down the Ash Beastmen's offensive, but there wasn't that much effect.

Those Ash Beastman slaves just rush just didn't care about their own lives. They rushed through the fire, covering themselves in burning liquids, but the screams continued. There was no trace of reason in their eyes, and they were all crazy about massacre.

Boundless smoke emerged from the Ash Beastmen in the back. The blue-eyed Demon Warlocks had nasty grins as they stood there. The Abyssal aura spread through the air into a large area of thick, black smoke, and the pungent scent of sulfur could be felt within a kilometer.

The magic patterns on the Demon Warlocks' bodies shone one after another, and at the same time, the smoke in the air turned into a forty-to-fifty-meter-tall vortex.

The surging black smoke kept churning, and at the center of the vortex, something similar to a membrane made out of black light appeared. Suddenly, Abyssal aura spurted out of this huge vortex.

Spheres covered in black smoke fell towards the ground.

"Slam, slam, slam…"

After a series of heavy sounds echoed, the black smoke dissipated and exposed dark blue Evil Water Elementals. The temperature rapidly fell as these Elementals, whose bodies seemed to be made out of concentrated water, appeared.

A layer of frost spread on the ground around these Evil Water Elementals, instantly extinguishing the Ancient War Trees' sea of fire.

As dark water was sprayed out, the sticky inflammable liquid that was spread on the ground was frozen, and even the burning Beastmen were frozen into lumps of ice.

But the slaves in the back didn't care about the ones that were frozen. They fiercely charged straight through, and all the frozen ones were shattered into pieces.

The Demon Warlocks had jointly used their summoning spells to summon a large group of Evil Water Elementals, greatly weakening the defenses of the Ancient War Trees.

Over a thousand Beastman slaves and Beastman Warriors were already reaching the front of the Ancient War Trees while they were being sent flying by the dozen. But immediately after some were knocked away, even more of them approached once again.

The crazy Beastman slaves swung their crude weapons as they pounced towards the Ancient War Trees, shouting as aimed at the branches, but they weren't strong enough to cut through the bark, so a large number of Beastman Warriors climbed onto the Ancient War Trees' branches and chopped at them with their large Battle Axes.

Under the effect of the Thorn Halo, the Beastman slaves attacking the Ancient War Trees were riddled with scars, and some were already seriously hurt.

However… not only did the blood fail to make these crazy Ash Beastmen retreat, but they even swarmed the Ancient War Trees like locusts.

It was only a few minutes before the Ancient War Trees' defensive perimeter fell as a dozen of them had lost their branches. Apart from the thick trunks, there wasn't a single branch. Although they didn't die, they already lost their defensive power and the ability to counterattack.

By this time, the Dark Elven army had already arrived. Several hundred Dark Elves were riding on Hippogryphs and flying from the rear. Moreover, a large group of Dark Elven Mages arrived at the front line to defend.

In the sky, the Wyvern Riders started fighting the Hippogryph Riders in a frantic struggle. Countless poisoned javelins were sent flying, along with ice and flames. From time to time, a Wyvern or a Hippogryph would fall down from the sky.

The Dark Elves' Mage Army started casting, instantly sending hundreds of Flame Spears, Frost Lances, and Meteors at the Ash Beastmen.

It didn't take long for the battlefield to sink into chaos. Spells exploded, Beastmen yelled crazily, Dark Elves cursed… Everything converged together and transformed into the buzzing sound of intense conflict. It was like the entire Dark Elven Clan was being overturned.

"Damned Ash Beastmen! Despicable, filthy lifeforms, to dare launch such a shameless sneak attack… Kill them!"

"Mage Army, prepare large-scale compound spells!"

"Kill these filthy Beastmen with their Abyssal bloodlines, we definitely can't let them go through the Ancient War Trees' defensive perimeter!"The Dark Elves that had just gone through a revolt were unexpectedly powerful during this battle. They all joined together against a common enemy, especially those that had followed the 3rd Elder, they were casting even more ferociously and didn't seem to care about their mana consumption.

But as the cursing spread through the air, Gulidan's face became embarrassed. He could see that these Ash Beastmen seemed to have turned hysterical because of some sort of influence. Anyone with the insight of a Heaven Rank powerhouse could see that.

Jiali was continuously issuing orders, directing the Dark Elves to keep fighting and completely ignoring Gulidan and Harris standing behind him, which made Gulidan feel even more awkward.

As the Ash Beastmen's Tribal Chief, he was still inside the Dark Elven Clan when Ash Beastmen came attacking from the outside, especially after he rushed over to criticize them fiercely. No one would believe him if he said that these Ash Beastmen hadn't been sent by him.

Seeing that the Ash Beastmen and the Dark Elves were deeply embroiled in their fight, Gulidan could no longer wait.

He ruthlessly stamped his foot and flew up from the ground to charge into the battlefield.

In the air, Gulidan was like the embodiment of red lightning as he flew at a terrifying speed. In an instant, he arrived above the battlefield.

Gulidan stood up in the sky and the aura of a Heaven Rank powerhouse burst out. Thunderous explosions could be heard as red bolts of lightning crackled around his body, flickering and shooting in random directions.

Chapter 742: 4th Heaven Rank Powerhouse

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Oppressive crackling and buzzing sounds echoed as ripples could be seen spreading from Gulidan's body. All the Wyverns and Hippogryphs let out frightened wails and unhesitantly flew towards the ground before burying their heads within their shivering wings.

The mana fluctuations spreading over the battlefield were swept away by these visible ripples, and the space there suddenly stabilized, stopping all the fighters, especially the crazy Beastman slaves, who instinctively knelt down and threw their weapons away. They then held their heads in their hands and didn't dare to raise their heads again.

The slaves had very low status in the Ash Beastman Tribe, as even the brainless Kodos could eat a few of them without suffering punishment. The Tribal Chief was an existence that they could never look at; one glance and they would suffer from a disaster.

This was an instinct from that came from the bloodline and the soul. Even if they had become crazy, they couldn't stop themselves.

The Ash Beastmen's elites also completely stopped when they felt this extraordinary aura belonging to their Tribal Chief and started kneeling one after the other.

All the Ash Beastmen still standing felt even more pressured. Those visible ripples were only Gulidan's aura, it alone was too much for them to resist.

The Tribal Chief's might made all the Ash Beastmen become clear-headed in an instant.

Lin Yun saw this scene and immediately understood why those Firerock Dwarves he had first met had been acting normally at first but became berserk with a small fluctuation.

These Ash Beastmen were controlled by some evil power, but their consciousness was still there. There were just many things in their minds that had been amplified, making it so that a simple unsuitable line would be enough for them to go out of control. Even just a bit of fluctuation could agitate them and make them attack hysterically.

Gulidan was their Tribal Chief and had gained prestige for a long time. He had enough power to suppress their moods. Just by standing there, he could make these crazy Ash Beastmen calm down.

Lin Yun took a deep breath as he sensed the authority that could suppress people's souls. The elements and power surrounding Gulidan took the initiative to gather there. He only stood in the air and didn't exert any power of his own, but it looked like the power gathered in the air took the initiative to follow his gaze.

Apparently, all the power in the surroundings had already fallen under his control. He was obviously far away, and the pressure he emitted hadn't spread all the way to this side, but Lin Yun felt that he was already unable to maintain his Levitation. His mana was faintly trembling and the power he controlled was moving on its own accord, trying to draw closer to Gulidan.

Gulidan stood in midair with an ashen face as he suppressed all the Ash Beastmen, stopping the fight in an instant.

The fighting Dark Elves were alarmed when Gulidan appeared. They didn't know Gulidan was in the Dark Elven Clan, and when they saw him appear, they thought that he was going to personally attack them.

But they hadn't expected Gulidan's pressure to be targeted not at the Dark Elves, but rather at the Ash Beastmen. The pressured Wyverns kept pressing against the ground while letting out mournful cries, and the large army of Ash Beastmen was also shaking as fear pierced through their bones.

"That's the power of the Heaven Rank, so incredible!"

"Too strong! The Ash Beastmen's Tribal Chief is unexpectedly so powerful, he only stood there, but that aura made me breathless."

"What's going on? How could this be? Why did their Tribal Chief appear? I can't even raise my head to look up…"

A group of Dark Elves shouted in alarm. After all, many of them had never seen what a Heaven Rank powerhouse looked before, let alone when one made a move. Now that they had experienced this power, they were so frightened that their legs were shaking. If these Dark Elves hadn't known about the Great Elder having advanced to the Heaven Rank, the front line would have already collapsed.

At this time, the Dark Elven Clan's Great Elder and the Firerock Dwarven Clan's Clan Head also flew up and saw Gulidan's ashen expression.

But when everyone thought that the situation was completely dealt with, a silhouette shrouded in black smoke flew over from the distance. That shadow was wrapped in formidable berserk power, making the air slightly shake before it even arrived.

Thunderous explosions kept echoing as the berserk power drove the power in the air to form a terrifying mana storm, which then transformed into surging black smoke that stretched for a dozen kilometers. The converged black smoke formed a terrifying tornado.

"Gulidan, you dare to stop me!? I'm doing this for our Tribe! Anyone that dares to stop me has to die! You must die!"

A loud roar exploded in front of the tornado, and the enraged voice gathered a large amount of the smoke to turn into several hundred enormous demonic skulls with smoke trailing behind them that shouted as they charged towards Gulidan.

The weather changed in an instant, and gales suddenly rose as the mana within the air was swept along by these yelling, rampaging skulls.

The formidable berserk pressure even made Lin Yun, who was a few kilometers away, feel breathless. It felt as if the pressure was right in front of him.

Gulidan slightly frowned in front of this terrible pressure and reached his hand in front of him as if grabbing something in the void, creating spatial fluctuations. It was as if his hand had pierced through the space and reached another area. A large number of ripples started emerging as Gulidan pulled out a two-meter-long crimson sword.

A heavy killing aura instantly spread from Gulidan's body. It was a more violent but firmly suppressed power.

Gulidan's held his sword with one hand and ruthlessly slashed towards these countless skulls, sending out an ordinary re-colored Aura Slash.

But that red Aura Slash was over a hundred meters long as if Gulidan had slashed with a huge greatsword.

After the Aura Slash flew out, it exploded and turned into several hundred smaller Aura Slashes.

The countless red Aura Slashes turned into a wave that directly collided against these demonic skulls.

It was like several hundred red greatswords were flying in the sky, each one colliding with a demonic skull, stabbing them in the forehead.

The demonic skulls were pierced by the red greatswords, but the slashes stopped after going halfway through. The demonic skulls were like animals, letting out angry shouts and surging black smoke, apparently wanting to force the Aura Slashes out.

A terrifying mana fluctuation spread in the air like a tide surging forth, and countless terrifying shockwaves spread from the demonic skulls and Aura Slashes, covering the domed sky and creating sinister scars on the sky dome that had solidified over countless years.

At the same time, it seemed like a giant had swung a sword at the ground, creating a rift that was over a kilometer in length, and this was only the aftermath of the impact!

After a second, those berserk demonic skulls finally were no longer able to keep resisting the Aura Slashes and were run through by the wave.

All the demonic skulls let out unwilling bellows and transformed into black smoke before collapsing.

But Gulidan's Aura Slashes also expended their energy passing through the black smoke and were unable to reach the smoky figure.

That person was standing high in the sky, and the black smoke covering him condensed into wisps, looking just like sinister black snakes sticking to his body.

But this person was wearing pitch-black armor and a helmet.

The two of them stopped after one clash. Gulidan frowned as he looked at that person in the distance, feeling that he was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't figure out who it was.

Jiali and Harris couldn't help staring apprehensively as the newcomer. The others couldn't see, but how could they not see? Gulidan had casually used an Aura Slash, but after advancing to the Heaven Rank, even such an Aura Slash carried Extraordinary power. That wasn't the kind of power those under the Heaven Rank could resist!

The seemingly casual Aura Slash was under Gulidan's control, and the power within was condensed to its peak. It was genuine Extraordinary power, comparable to Stainless Steel refined a hundred times. Power below the level of Extraordinary power, no matter how formidable, would only be like an egg in front of it.

No matter how big the egg was, in the collision between Stainless Steel that had been refined a hundred times and an egg, the egg would obviously be smashed to pieces.

But now, they saw that this person's probing attack was evenly matched with Gulidan's!

'That's actually a Heaven Rank powerhouse? Since when are Heaven Ranks this common in the God Nation?'

There had been no Heaven Rank powerhouses for so many years among the three races, and the three of them had barely managed to step into the Heaven Realm but couldn't take a single step further.

But there was a 4th Heaven Rank powerhouse?

Chapter 743: Accept Your Death

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

While everyone was feeling shocked and doubtful, the black smoke covering that figure condensed again, and wisps of black smoke slowly parted to uncover the face of a fierce and sinister Ash Beastman.

"Black Dragon Warlord, it's you!?" Gulidan was startled and furious.

The Black Dragon Warlord's face was sinister and cold, but looked quite crazy as he loudly hissed, "Gulidan, I found the gate within the prophecy! I am the person with the greatest contributions in the Tribe! I am qualified to be the Tribal Chief! Furthermore, I'm already too strong, I'm powerful enough that no one can tell me what to do! Whoever blocks my path to become the Tribal Chief will die. Gulidan, you are already dead!"

The Black Dragon Warlord shouted crazily. His emotions were out of control and black smoke was surging from his entire body. All the smoke kept condensing until it finally transformed into several hundred black spheres that were each ten meters in diameter.

The spheres kept shrinking and collapsing while the smoke slowly dissipated, until several hundred Meteors covered in lava hovered in the air, making the space around them distort from the terrifying mana fluctuations.

The surging lava kept flowing on top of the Meteors, and after a few moments, they rained down with heavy momentum and pressure as they fell towards Gulidan.

The huge vibration made the Beastmen below cover their ears in pain, and a lot of the slaves were lying on the floor while continuously screaming.

That sound was too powerful. The sonic boom had already turned into a faint humming, but that hum seemed to make everyone's hearts shake, while their eardrums were about to explode.

In the distance, Lin Yun felt the mana fluctuations surge like a tide and had no choice but to land on top of a tree. He frowned as he looked at the Black Dragon Warlord fighting Gulidan.

The others might not understand why the Black Dragon Warlord was in this state, but Lin Yun did.

'The Flame Dragon Warlord must have listened to my suggestion and refrained from touching that door, but the Black Dragon Warlord might have touched it in his hurry to accumulate contributions to his Tribe. Even I wanted to get out of there as soon as possible, but there was actually someone foolish enough to touch it.

'Even a Heaven Rank powerhouse, someone with Extraordinary Power, would become scared and turn pale if they knew what was behind that door, yet that guy actually tried to open it? But it looks like that guy didn't manage to actually open the door, or else the problem wouldn't only be at this level… We would be finished.'

Lin Yun was pondering with a frown on his face before his attention was caught by a series of fierce explosions. He raised his head and noticed the several hundred meteors collapsing towards Gulidan. Gulidan held his sword with both hands, and a crimson Aura Coating appeared on the surface of the longsword. Furthermore, he controlled the berserk aura to extend at the tip of the sword, increasing the length to exceed seven meters while also widening it.

Gulidan brandished the longsword and rushed into the swarm of meteors, slashing fiercely. With every slash, a dozen meteors were turned to pieces.

Gulidan glared in anger. The Aura covering his body burned with flames like a layer of flaming armor as he charged forward, sweeping through those terrifying meteors that couldn't stop him like a red incarnation of lightning.

He pierced through the meteors with a series of flickering sword slashes, and the several hundred meteors left behind him fell into pieces in an instant.

A large amount of lava and broken rocks fell from the sky like a waterfall and landed on a Dark Elven tree field, washing it away and turning several hundred trees to ashes in a few moments. All the trees over a kilometer around that place were set ablaze.

The battle in the sky was still ongoing. After the previous attack failed, the black smoke around Black Dragon Warlord quickly surged forth and turned into countless scaly black shields around him.

The shields were eight meters in length and were covered with thin black scales like those of a black snake. The edges of the shields were made of bloody bone outgrowths.

Several hundred shields formed a huge sphere that rapidly revolved around the Black Dragon Warlord.

Gulidan tore towards the Black Dragon Warlord like red lightning, so fast that his figure was blurry. Suddenly, sparks appeared in multiple locations across the sphere of shields.

One shield after another was shattered, but even more of those shields were condensed to replace them. The sphere of shields was tenaciously resisting Gulidan's fast-paced attacks. Only a few seconds passed, but Gulidan had attacked over a thousand times, yet he wasn't able to break through this defensive perimeter.

Gulidan's figure suddenly appeared in the air, holding the sword with both hands before flipping it and aiming at the Black Dragon Warlord.

A frightening power spread out at that moment like a Dragon escaping from its cage. A large red sphere appeared in Gulidan's hands as the glaring ball of light shimmered, ready to explode at any moment. That terrifying power made cold sweat trickle down Lin Yun's back as he watched the fight from afar.

If that kind of power burst out, it would be absolutely destructive, able to shatter even a kilometer-tall mountain.

But although that power was berserk, it was completely controlled by Gulidan. As Gulidan slashed down, the red sphere of light suddenly burst open and a flood of power surged forth. It felt as if Gulidan was swinging a huge, hundred-meter-long red sword at that moment.

The berserk power was completely restrained by Gulidan as he heavily slashed at the black shields protecting the Black Dragon Warlord. The surging red aura was glaringly visible and shattered those shields to pieces. Only a red flood stretching over a kilometer could be seen in the sky.

All the black shields were broken apart, and even those that had yet to form were destroyed by Gulidan's flood of Aura.

The red flood was like a soaring sword that never stopped. It kept going and hit a branch of the Wisdom Tree several kilometers away. This branch that was several hundred meters thick, along with the thick forest on the branch, was instantly turned to ashes. An area over a kilometer wide seemed to disappear, and the broken end of the branch fell to the ground, carried by that huge power.

Lin Yun gasped in surprise. 'That's Extraordinary Power!? Such amazing control… That kind of berserk power is very hard to control, but he accurately manipulated it that precisely?

'Every single wisp of power fell onto the Black Dragon Warlord's defenses and nothing was wasted. The immense power didn't even affect those below.

'But that Black Dragon Warlord shouldn't have died so easily, right?'

And sure enough, Gulidan didn't smile after that hit. His face became even more serious as he swung his sword and stabbed at empty air. Red Aura surged and turned into a monstrous red creature. The red creature was only eight meters tall, but its arms were actually a hundred meters long and a dozen meters thick.

Both of the giant creature's arms made grabbing motions in the air, and fierce spatial fluctuations surged forth. Following a loud roar, the creature's arms were torn apart.

In an instant, the space felt as if it was forcibly torn apart, and pitch-black smoke appeared out of nowhere. The black smoke kept expanding and shrinking, exposing the figure of the Black Dragon Warlord from within. His hands were stretched in front of him supporting a large black sphere.

This sphere was like a hole sucking in the surrounding smoke and turning into a ball of black oil that emitted terrifying power. The surrounding space quickly fluctuated, and visible ripples spread in the surroundings. These seemingly gentle ripples hit the ground, and everything they went through shattered…

"Gulidan, accept your death!"

The Black Dragon Warlord crazily shouted with gritted teeth, apparently straining his body to throw that black sphere with great force.

The black sphere grew at a rapid pace after being sent out, and its speed kept increasing.

In a few moments, the sphere grew from a dozen meters in size to over a hundred meters. The berserk and evil power contained within spread out and emitted so much pressure that the space seemed like a piece of paper being folded.

Explosions could be heard in the air as the black sphere flew towards Gulidan, and even though the sphere was several hundred meters in the air, the buildings and trees on the ground were swept by its power and shaken into pieces.

As the sphere passed over the few hundred Ancient War Trees, they were affected by its power and the seemingly indestructible trunks seemed to have decayed by tens of thousands of years in an instant and turned into countless fragments drifting through the air…

Chapter 744: Meet The Enemy

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The black sphere spanning over a hundred meters swept all the power around and kept it suppressed. Even Gulidan couldn't avoid it. Countless spatial cracks lingered in the surroundings of the sphere, and all the power was putting pressure on him.

Gulidan half-crouched in the air, his steel-like red muscles continuously bulging as thunder-like vibrations reverberated.

Then, Gulidan's power surged, and spatial folds could be seen under Gulidan's feet. He tightly grasped his sword and slashed it in an arc.

In an instant, countless red silk-like strands of energy appeared in the air and formed spiralling circles that suppressed the black sphere's power.

In less than a second, the powerful black sphere was covered by that red sword-light, which forcibly severed the sphere's effect on its surroundings, reducing its pressure.

Thick, thunderous sounds echoed where the two powers collided, creating a large river of lightning that revolved around the black sphere.

The Black Dragon Warlord shouted sinisterly and kept pouring in more power into the black sphere from behind when suddenly, Gulidan's silhouette disappeared.

Those countless red sword-lights seemed to lose control as they were knocked away, while the black sphere's direction was altered and it exploded into the distance.

With the disappearance of the red-colored lights, the black sphere was nothing more than a wild dog whose leash had been cut. It rushed into the distance and destroyed a forest spanning several kilometers.

"Rumble…"

Black light flashed, followed by a mushroom cloud rising up. The jet-black shockwave kicked up a large amount of dust and swept through several kilometers in an instant, leaving only destruction in its wake. By the time the mushroom cloud reached the domed sky, the forest had thoroughly disappeared.

The giant trees that had been over a hundred meters in height could no longer be seen. Only a huge hole was left in the area, and some black substance glittering with a metallic luster could be seen at the bottom. It was so powerful that it turned everything in that place into a different kind of matter.

At this time, a red bolt of lightning appeared in front of the Black Dragon Warlord. Gulidan ruthlessly slashed down at the Black Dragon Warlord's head.

The Black Dragon Warlord had a sinister expression as a black demonic skull instantly congealed in front of his body. The skull started laughing wildly and bit down on Gulidan's sword.

An explosion echoed as Gulidan's figure turned into a mirage and dissipated. At the same time, nine Gulidans appeared around the Black Dragon Warlord and attacked from different angles.

The Black Dragon Warlord laughed wildly, and another eight of those demonic skulls condensed around his body. All the skulls opened their mouths wide and bit at the swords.

"Gulidan, you actually dare to use a trick like the nine-layered slashes? Do you feel my power? You lost, you can't defeat me! Tremble as I teach you what despair is!" the Black Dragon Warlord angrily shouted.

Black smoke surged behind him and boundless power poured into the nine demonic skulls. Then, black light radiated from within the demonic skulls, and the nine Gulidans shattered.

The black light shattered all the attacks and caused many deep holes to appear in the ground, as well as in the domed sky above. The light dispersed on the next floor through this large tunnel.

Furthermore, black light also attacked the Ash Beastman army, and three 8th Rank Archmage Demon Warlocks didn't even have time to scream before wordlessly disintegrating.

The chaotic black light kept firing, and nothing could resist its power. But at this time, Gulidan's figure appeared again seemingly out of nowhere in front of the Black Dragon Warlord.

His sword was already piercing through the Black Dragon Warlord.

In an instant, the black smoke behind the Black Dragon Warlord started billowing crazily before pouring into the crazed Beastman's body. Waves of shockwaves spread from their location, and everything within a hundred meters was sent flying. The air around them was full of pressure once again and formed countless rays of lightning that created a cover of lightning around them.

Gulidan was glaring in anger as his sword only pierced a bit of the Black Dragon Warlord's body before being blocked by the surging smoke.

Then, as if it was melting, Gulidan's sword turned into countless red bolts of lightning that covered the Black Dragon Warlord in an instant, making the black smoke in his body burst out.

Gulidan took advantage of that to punch the Black Dragon Warlord in the chest. In a split second, the Black Dragon Warlord was sent crashing into the ground.

"Boom…" A loud explosion echoed.

A hole that was over a hundred meters in size appeared with the Black Dragon Warlord lying at the bottom, covered in red, flickering lightning that slowly merged with his body, and numerous red tattoos appeared on his body. At that moment, the Black Dragon Warlord's power steeply fell down from the Heaven Rank.

The Black Dragon Warlord had a malevolent face as he kept spitting out blood. Who knew how many broken bones he had… His limbs were already twisted in a monstrous shape and he shivering at the bottom of the hole.

Gulidan was about to rush down to settle things when something happened.

Black smoke came down from the domed sky, dragging a long black tail behind and falling down like a meteor. Moreover, the smoke quickly swelled as it fell, turning into a ball over a thousand meters wide.

As it kept growing bigger and bigger, the power it emitted rapidly increased. Gulidan looked appalled as he quickly rushed towards the sky.

This time, the Dark Elven Clan's Great Elder and the Firerock Dwarven Clan's Clan Head both flew over to face the falling smoke.

The red-colored flames that Gulidan was emitting instantly turned into a pair of enormous hands that swung at the falling smoke.

Jiali's magic patterns shone as a bowl-like barrier of light was sent towards the sky.

As for Harris, he grabbed his warhammer and roared, causing the shadow of a hundred-meter-tall dwarf to appear behind him. The shadow raised its hands and pushed towards the smoke.

The three Heaven Ranks joined their hands to block it, but they groaned when they felt the impact and couldn't help falling back, as if their bodies were being crushed by a mountain.

As the huge ball of smoke was held back, the crisis befalling the Dark Elven Clan was avoided, but the three Heaven Rank powerhouses couldn't keep resisting it.

The central area was thoroughly protected, but a large amount of smoke fell in the surroundings of the Dark Elven Clan, spreading everywhere.

The Dark Elven Clan's most powerful defense was the Ancient War Trees, but these trees all let out desperate roars when touched by that black smoke.

The tree leaves withered rapidly, and their branches that were as solid as steel quickly lost their luster as one Ancient War Tree after another quickly withered. After a few seconds, the hundred-meter-tall Ancient War Trees turned into piles of rotten tree fragments.

The Dark Elven Clan's numerous treehouses and buildings seemed to have decayed completely in an instant, causing them all to collapse into piles of rotten wood.

The green earth had turned barren, leaving no trace of vegetation behind.

The Dark Elves outside of the defense's range were submerged by the black smoke. Although they used their strongest shields, all their defensive spells were annihilated within a few seconds.

The Dark Elves who came into contact with the smoke let out miserable screams as their skin quickly disappeared and their flesh rotted away.

In an instant, only a large number of skeletons were left behind, but it wasn't over. These skeletons quickly darkened and decayed even further before turning ashes.

The terrifying situation stunned everyone. The Dark Elves didn't know what this black smoke was, after all, but seeing the three Heaven Rank powerhouses having great difficulty holding it back even after joining hands and also what happened to the surroundings, everyone knew that if the three Heaven Rank powerhouses hadn't been there, the Dark Elven Clan would have already been destroyed.

And even greater changes appeared after the first flood of smoke. A large number of Ash Beastmen walked out from smoke with crude black smoky armor and completely blue eyes. They looked sluggish but very sinister.

The Ash Beastmen who had originally been intimidated by Gulidan became even more berserk at this moment.

But without Gulidan's pressure to hold them back, these Ash Beastmen were even fiercer than before, and even the Demon Warlocks, who were able to cast due to the power of their bloodlines, loudly roared and charged like the Beastman Warriors, casting Abyssal Spells as they rushed forth.

"Meet the enemy!"

Chapter 745: Can't Hold On

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Miserable screams echoed throughout the Dark Elven Clan. A great majority of the Dark Elves' Ancient War Trees, their most powerful defense, had rotted away, so the Beastmen didn't need to spend much effort to break through the perimeter.

And there was still more… The black smoke had become a lot darker and a lot of shadows could be seen flickering within as the Ash Beastmen resumed their charge. It only took a few seconds before something even more shocking happened.

Dark Elves wearing the same crude smoky armor could be seen charging from the left of the Ash Beastmen army. Their eyes were also flickering with that blue light, while their expressions were extremely sinister.

To the right of the Ash Beastmen was a group of similarly controlled Firerock Dwarves charging out of the black smoke.

The Dark Elves had already struggled when it was just the Ash Beastmen alone, but now, a group of Dark Elves and a group of Firerock Dwarves had joined in.

The Beastman slaves swung their weapons as they rushed to the front while the Dark Elves were frantically casting from the left side, their magic patterns continuously shining. There was no order or logic to their casting as if they were just throwing out all their spells.

Countless fire, ice, wind, and dark spells turned into a chaotic mana storm that flew towards the Dark Elven Clan.

The Ash Beastmen's Flying Riders kept diving down and throwing their poisoned javelins while the Demon Warlocks kept casting Abyssal Spells, calling forth countless meteors that smelled of sulfur.

The Firerock Dwarves on the right side were the craziest. They tossed their hammers out haphazardly, just making sure to fling them in the general direction of the Dark Elven Clan.

They didn't coordinate with each other at all, but this chaos, with the three races' abilities, successfully merged into a deadly mix of javelins, hammers and spell storms.

This flood covered one side of the Dark Elves' defenses in a completely unreasonable manner.

Countless buildings were flattened, and even the remains of some Ancient War Trees were blown away by the power.

An Ancient War Tree swung its arm, but it barely lifted its hand before it was hit by a flood of attacks, blowing its arm to pieces.

In an instant, the Ancient War Tree's branches were turned to shreds by the pure and chaotic power, and even a layer of the floor was scraped away. Cracks also started to appear on the extremely hard trunk of the Ancient War Tree.

Moments later, the trunk of that branchless tree was forcibly pulled out from the ground by that immense power.

The Ancient War Tree was like a sapling meeting a flood, completely unable to resist that huge pressure.

After the chaotic flood washed over, everything within a few hundred meters had been torn to shreds. The few dozen Dark Elves in that area had only been able to defend for a few seconds before being overwhelmed.

After the flood, a large group of Beastman slaves loudly shouted and rushed through the hole in the defenses, followed by the frenzied Dark Elves and Firerock Dwarves.

They continued to throw out spells and hammers indiscriminately, and the first ones to get torn to shreds were actually the quickest Beastman slaves.

Instead of being more careful about who they attacked, the rampaging swarm grew even more ferocious, and the Demon Warlocks in the back also didn't have the slightest thought of letting up on their spells. It looked like they were actually killing more of the slaves than the Dark Elves.

"Resist! Quick! We must resist!"

"We definitely can't let them come in!"

The Dark Elves kept roaring within the clan. Everyone knew that if these crazy members of the three Great Races came in, the Dark Elven Clan would inevitably be torn to shreds by these lunatics!

Lin Yun, who was looking at the fight from a distance, frowned. He then slowly landed on the ground and looked for Reina and the others.

"The situation isn't good, I didn't expect so many Dark Elves and Firerock Dwarves to be controlled, and the three Heaven Rank powerhouses simply can't act at this moment. If we don't help, the Dark Elven Clan will become history…"

Enderfa floated up and sneered, "What about the situation? Let's hurry up and leave! I don't know what that falling smoke is, but even three Heaven Rank powerhouses can barely stop it. The circumstances are still unknown, but there are so many of them infected. We wouldn't even be much help if we made a move…"

Lin Yun glanced at Enderfa. 'That guy only thinks of leaving, and he doesn't have a good opinion of the Dark Elves, so of course he wouldn't want to act…'

Lin Yun then looked at the others, but they didn't say anything. Reina was cold and expressionless, while Xiuban knew that arguing with Lin Yun was useless so he looked resigned to accept his fate.

Zeuss was frowning but didn't say anything. The decision was for Lin Yun to make.

"How is Elsa?" Lin Yun asked, glancing at the treehouse they had been in.

"Still the same, she is unconscious and I don't know when she'll wake up," Enderfa indifferently answered. "Merlin, this situation is really too dangerous, we had better leave this place."

Lin Yun shook his head and only said, "I can't just watch the Dark Elven Clan be destroyed, you should understand that."

Enderfa unhappily sighed as he heard that, but he didn't retort.

Lin Yun arranged a defensive array outside Elsa's room before leading everyone to fly towards the battlefield.

Although the possessed members of the three great races were crazy and powerful, there were more Dark Elves in the Dark Elven Clan and they were in a favorable location, so as defenders, they had a small advantage.

Unfortunately, the Dark Elves met misfortune after misfortune and their strength had greatly decreased, and the loss of the defensive Ancient War Trees was disastrous.

The Dark Elves' defensive perimeter kept being pushed back, and the sinister and evil invaders were crazily charging without stopping.

"We won't be able to hold on! What do we do?"

"We have to stop them, keep retreating towards the headquarters, there should be some Ancient War Trees that can help us there!"

"No good, the pressure of their spells is too strong, we can't hold on…"

A group of Dark Elves standing at the forefront kept shouting, while the commander was gritting his teeth as one of his arms had been blown up, but he still glared and kept casting obstinately. Unfortunately, more and more of the remaining Ancient War Trees were destroyed. The more of these trees they lost, the lower their magic resistance would drop.

Looking at the Demon Warlocks casting yet another wave of spells, they retreated to the last defensive line of Ancient War Trees. Countless flaming Meteors fell down like rain, and the spells cast by the Dark Elves in response felt like small flames rushing into a torrential storm, drowning instantly.

A feeling of despair swelled in the hearts of those Dark Elves. They could no longer resist, and there would be no more Ancient War Trees to help them if they lost this last line of defense.

The few hundred Dark Elves defending that place were crazily casting, not caring about their mana consumption. They didn't even care about their own lives, as the Dark Elven Race would perish if they couldn't hold on!

Unfortunately, their spells could only stop a small portion of the incoming attacks. They couldn't block most of them and could only stare blankly as the spells rained down.

At this time, Enderfa loudly shouted in a cursing tone, "Damnit, what a bunch of wretches! This Great Enderfa has to rescue a bunch of Dark Elves, this is making me feel sick…"

Before he even finished speaking, all the Dark Elves saw a wheel-shaped Magic Tool rotating in the air with three arrogant faces floating above it.

At the same time, all the Dark Elves also saw Lin Yun floating in the air.

Lin Yun opened the Book of Death with his left-hand and raised the Draconic Staff with his right. He then chanted a word and a tangible sound flew out of his mouth before growing to be a rune that was eight meters tall.

The blazing red rune exploded in the air and a ten-meter-wide flame vortex appeared with a red membrane-like light radiating from its center, just like a Planar Gate. Countless Flame Spears, Bursting Fireballs, Fire God Spears and Fire Dragon spells flew from within.

In an instant, several dozen spells sprayed out, and the boundless burst of fire spells merged together and formed a huge storm of flames that ferociously flew towards the mana storm headed their way.

Chapter 746: Annihilation Effect

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

And this wasn't over… Another sound came out of Lin Yun's mouth. That sound condensed into ice and a large vortex of ice appeared in the air, from which a large number of Frost Lances, Frost Spikes and Frost Roars came out. Those spells fused together into an ice spellstorm that seemed full of sharp ice fragments.

The ice spellstorm and the fire spellstorm fused together to form a red and blue storm. The extreme heat and extreme cold collided to form chaotic and berserk mana.

A loud explosion echoed as the two completely differently attributed spellstorms collided and formed a strange annihilation effect in the center, destroying every spell there. A transparent light barrier quickly spread from there and all the spells in its path ended up dissipating.

The Dark Elves' faces turned white as they watched this take place. How could they not know what was happening? That was the annihilation effect. When fierce fire spells and ice spells collided, with both the same quality and the same quantity, this kind of strange annihilating storm would appear.

The fire spells and ice spells simultaneously dissipated, but this wasn't necessarily good… In fact, it was quite terrible. Only an even fiercer power could instantly calm down this violent energy. The burst potential reached the pinnacle, but the power was actually rather tranquil.

The Dark Elves were innate caster, so how could they not have seen that before? They had seen all kinds of things while studying magic, and some of them were reminded of a particular battle between a Dark Elf proficient in fire spells and a Dark Elf proficient in ice spells.

That battle was hailed as textbook content in the Dark Elven Clan, because the two Dark Elves were Archmages with similar strength who fought fiercely. They ultimately cast spells which strangely had the same size and power, and after the spells cancelled each other out, the Annihilation Storm swallowed both of them, not leaving a single bone behind.

How could they not want to run when seeing such a huge Annihilation Storm?

The Dark Elves that were closest unhesitantly ran back, because no one under the Heaven Rank could resist that Annihilation Storm. All elemental power would be forcibly annihilated and would even discreetly reinforce the Annihilation Storm's power.

Even Lin Yun was surprised by the creation of the Annihilation Storm. Even with his level of control, he couldn't be 100% certain that it would work. He had only planned on relying on the fire spellstorm and the ice spellstorm's collision to create a fierce elemental storm in order to stop those crazy guys, but he was pleasantly surprised by the outcome.

The Dark Elves fighting at the front line fled for their lives, but the mind-controlled Ash Beastmen couldn't think. They only knew how to charge fiercely and were unaware of the Dark Elves' thoughts. If the Ash Beastmen rushed in, they would definitely die.

And sure enough, when the Ash Beastmen at the front suddenly noticed an area devoid of spells, they charged towards that anomalously calm zone without any thought.

Anyone with a brain would definitely not rush so boldly into a deathly silent and windless area opening up in a battlefield.

But the intelligence of these Ash Beastmen already couldn't be compared to that of Kodos. Their first reaction was that they could rush over even faster.

It only took a few seconds for over a hundred of those Ash Beastmen to charge into the annihilation area, causing a gruesome scene.

All the Ash Beastmen were brandishing their weapons with sinister expressions, but their bodies seemed to experience the passage of countless years in a moment before turning into piles of ashes, drifting away.

Even their crude black armor and weapons turned to ashes in an instant.

But that didn't stop the crazy guys in the back, who continued pressing on. It only took a few seconds for several hundred of the slaves to charge into the annihilation zone and turn to ashes.

The fastest Demon Warlocks also reached the annihilation zone, but it resulted in a different scene than when the slaves and warriors went in… Their bodies suddenly expanded before loudly exploding, again leaving ashes behind.

When the annihilation zone expanded to cover more than a kilometer, it quickly started shrinking, and the center of the battlefield regained its original chaotic state.

But in those eight seconds, there was a huge area in the center of the battlefield where all the mind-controlled Ash Beastmen had turned to ashes after being annihilated by magic.

The annihilation attribute was something that only Heaven Rank Powerhouses could remove, and furthermore, only mages that had thoroughly researched the earth attribute could grasp a wisp of that terrifying power.

Now, it casually appeared by coincidence and displayed the destructive power that an Archmage couldn't even display!

The Annihilation Storm disappeared, but the mind-controlled non-humans weren't scared. They simply couldn't feel the dread of what had just happened to all those Beastmen.

Enderfa, who was originally about to cast spells, was stunned, foolishly looking at the center of the battlefield where the Annihilation space had appeared.

"Damn, Merlin, you are a lucky b*stard! Such a fierce power actually created the annihilation effect!"

"Stop speaking and hurry up, these lunatics don't know fear!" Lin Yun shouted in a deep voice before casting once again. The ice and fire vortexes kept casting spells, while Lin Yun also raised his Draconic Staff to cast more spells of his own.

Unfortunately, the ice and fire spells released this time only formed a fierce elemental storm after their collision, not showing any signs of the annihilation effect from before.

Lin Yun wasn't discouraged. What happened earlier was pure luck, but he had some enlightenment from the experience, so it was good overall. He had gained some comprehension regarding elements and casting, which would greatly help.

Enderfa controlled the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and cast fire, ice, wind, and earth spells. The four attributes mixed together to form a chaotic quad-elemental spellstorm. The four-colored flood of spells washed over the mind-controlled horde.

Reina, the puppet, and Zeuss stood on the ground and kept casting. Xiuban didn't dare to rush out, but he was afraid that if he didn't do anything, Lin Yun would get revenge on him after the battle. But after noticing a pile of the inflammable fruits from the Ancient War Trees, Xiuban suddenly had an idea.

He held one of the fruits and used his formidable strength to ferociously lob it through the air. The large fruit was like a small stone being cast into the center of the battlefield.

The fruit was torn to shreds by a flurry of chaotic spells and spread its juices out just as it reached the center of the battlefield. Several Beastman slaves ended up being glued by the juices, and blazing shadows appeared everywhere on the battlefield.

After Lin Yun joined, the Dark Elves felt full of vigor and cast various elemental spells all over the battlefield, tenaciously resisting the mind-controlled army.

This also gave hope to the despairing Dark Elves. If those intruders had managed to breach the last line of Ancient War Trees, the Dark Elves would have been finished.

But they were stopped!

Even if the danger had yet to be eliminated, it was enough to see hope. A large number of Dark Elves gritted their teeth and squeezed their mana out to keep casting.

The battlefield was in a deadlock. The mindless enemies couldn't charge their way in, but the Dark Elves couldn't push them back.

Moreover, the fearless Beastman slaves seemed to be spread over a few kilometers, but still densely packed. They were charging towards this side like a large river. It was unknown how many were there.

There was a terrifying amount of cheap fodder among those Beastmen!

But under such circumstances, who would dare to relax? Even Lin Yun, as the main casting force, could only use a large flurry of Low Tier spells to suppress that flood. Although the Beastmen slaves kept dying, there didn't seem to be any change to the quantity.

Time slowly passed and more and more mana was consumed over half an hour, but those mind-controlled non-humans didn't seem to care about mana consumption as they were still casting frantically and showing no signs of being exhausted.

Lin Yun slightly frowned and summoned Undead Mage Barton and Death Knight Lagulin.

Barton's Undead Spells and Lagulin's Evil Halo were added, but it wasn't a huge help.

Just as Lin Yun was about to use the Element Chapter to summon an Elemental Dragon, a surging mana fluctuation came from the back of the Dark Elven Clan. Boundless mana gathered together to form a seven-colored circular rainbow.

Chapter 747: Bloodline Awakening

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

A large amount of mana was attracted by some kind of power and slowly rotated. Lin Yun saw the circular rainbow fall a few seconds later. It was like a seven-colored tornado that turned into a funnel. Elements followed that funnel and frantically poured towards the bottom.

The immense power emerged for no less than three minutes before that funnel dissipated.

At the same time, another shadow flew out, quickly flying towards this side.

Seeing this shadow, Lin Yun had a kind of expression that seemed to say, "Ah, as I thought".

'It was her, as expected! Her bloodline finally awakened!'

The shadow that flew over was Elsa, who had been unconscious. Right now, Elsa was full of doubt and was emitting formidable mana fluctuations, as she had gained two ranks!

From being a 7th Rank Archmage, she had now become a 9th Rank Archmage!

She was truly blessed by heaven. The Sky Bloodline wasn't the Dark Elves' most formidable bloodline for nothing; just the initial awakening gave her so much benefit. It was a gift that would make others jealous.

It also let her recover completely, allowing her to leap to the 9th Rank in one step. As long as her bloodline awakened once again, she wouldn't need long to reach the Heaven Rank!

Lin Yun sighed inwardly. This was the kind of talent others would be envious of. It looked like the legend wasn't exaggerated… As long as the Sky Bloodline was awakened, people could even sleep their way to the Heaven Rank.

"Merlin, what's going on?"

Elsa only remembered being attacked by an Ash Beastman and didn't know what had happened since then, so she was feeling considerably disoriented.

"No time to explain, release your most powerful spells first and repel these lunatics! We will talk later," Lin Yun quickly said.

Although Elsa didn't understand what was happening, she could also see the crisis.

Without any superfluous words, Elsa extended her right hand, and a magic pattern shone. The power unique to Ultimate Spells emerged, and wind instantly rose in front of Elsa before turning into cyan gales.

Countless gales surged forth and converged in front of Elsa into two huge cyan Wind Blades that were over a hundred meters long.

With the convergence of elements, it wasn't just Elsa's mana that was poured into it, but also the mana surrounding her. After a second, the two Wind Blades started rotating like the blades of pinwheel.

Countless gales converged in that direction, but not a bit of wind aura could be felt in the surroundings, as all that power was drawn into that huge pinwheel.

The magic pattern on Elsa's arm frantically flickered, and its power already surpassed her limits. She simply couldn't control it.

Then, the huge pinwheel flew out, sticking close to the ground and destroying everything in its way, gouging out a part of the ground as it travelled.

Ultimate Spell Great Pinwheel!

The Great Pinwheel flew towards the Ash Beastmen and wiped out all the Beastman slaves within several hundred meters before it could no longer be maintained.

With a bang, the huge pinwheel exploded and turned into countless sweeping Wind Blades forming a sort of cyan handheld fan. Each Wind Blade forming that fan covered a few hundred meters and took care of several hundred Beastman slaves in the process.

An Ultimate 5th Rank Spell actually had such power… Even Lin Yun couldn't help glancing at Elsa, feeling that the Sky Bloodline was truly heaven-defying. The Dark Elves' innate casting ability had been increased quite a bit.

Elsa also seemed a bit amazed by her own power.

But Lin Yun already started chanting an incantation quickly while pulling out his staff.

The past few times he encountered Ash Beastmen, he hadn't felt the impact of the Beastman slaves in battle, but this time, the slaves became overwhelming just because of their numbers.

Of course, the strength of each individual slave was very low. In a duel, Xiuban's toe would be enough to smash one to death, but there were too many.

It was just like the tactic used by some kinds of the Undead. When their numbers reached a certain amount, unless the difference in power was unbreachable, they would eventually overwhelm their victims.

The main reason that the Undead Plane couldn't be conquered for a very long time was that huge quantity. Just by relying on the inferior skeletons, they could forcibly exhaust the power of the Archmages!

Situations where Archmages ended up being buried under piles of skeletons that were below level ten had happened countless times.

Lin Yun even knew of the most famous defeat. It was when a fleet of magic battleships was submerged by a sea of Undead. A dozen magic battleships with main cannons comparable to Heaven Rank powerhouses in terms of power ended up being overwhelmed by Ghosts, Gargoyles, and Bone Dragons. In that battle, the highest leveled Undead was only level 30.

And these crazy Ash Beastmen were exactly like the Undead… In fact, they were even more frightening!

They only relied on their flesh to charge through the defensive lines and expended their lives to slowly make the entire Dark Elven Clan fall into the danger of being destroyed.

But now, with the addition of Elsa, the deadlock had been broken!

Lin Yun took the time to cast a powerful spell, and after six seconds of casting, a glaring light shone from his Draconic Staff.

Rumbles echoed through the air as an enormous black cloud appeared. A hundred-meter-wide meteorite came out of the black cloud.

The meteorite fell with great momentum and ignited with glaring flames as it flew through the atmosphere, echoing with a deafening rumble on its way.

The huge meteorite was like an irresistible burning sun falling down in the middle of the enemies.

"Boom!"

A loud sound echoed as the earth shook and a glaring light exploded. Within that light, countless shadows covered in black smoke could be seen sent flying before turning to ashes.

Lin Yun became pale and quickly swallowed a Mana Potion. Summoning that huge meteorite had used almost eighty percent of the Magic Array's mana.

That meteorite wasn't like a Heavensfall Meteor or some other kind of Meteor spell, which were either earth-attributed or fire-attributed. The spell he had just cast was a genuine summoning spell. The meteorite had been forcibly summoned from space, also known as the void.

The impact of a summoned meteorite that had been quickly flying through space was far greater than that of any kind of Meteor Spell, and would consume a lot more mana.

After a few seconds, Lin Yun's complexion returned to normal as his mana was halfway full again and still recovering. That was a benefit of having a Natural Demiplane. His mana would never run out.

The two formidable spells suddenly turned the original deadlock around, and the Dark Elves rushed out of the defensive perimeter, following Lin Yun's group in suppressing those mindless non-humans.

The battlefield started slowly moving and went from being inside of the Dark Elven Clan to taking place in the surroundings of the clan. Many Dark Elves whose power had declined started arranging defenses in the rear. They fought to restore their territory's defenses and many Ancient War Trees slowly moved towards the front line.

The situation looked a lot better, and just as the intruders were about to be pushed out of the Dark Elven Clan, something unexpected happened.

In that hole in the distance, the Black Dragon Warlord, who had originally been wounded and whose bones had shattered, flew up into the sky.

His bones had already recovered and his body was only covered in cracks with blood continuously pouring out.

"Gulidan! You think you can suppress me by just relying on your Magic Tool?! You are delusional! Delusional!!!"

The red tattoos on his body let out glaring rays of light as if they were igniting.

Soon, following his roar, those red tattoos showed signs of separating.

But in less than three seconds, those red tattoos stopped shaking and the light dimmed.

The Black Dragon Warlord flew into a rage, and black smoke was surging around his entire body as he had lost more than half of his aura and no longer displayed the aura of the Heaven Rank.

"Gulidan! Come out, you shameless trash! I'll kill you!"

In the distance, Lin Yun's expression slightly changed.

'Troublesome!'

The three Heaven Rank powerhouses weren't aware of the situation. They had been holding back the falling black smoke all along and their silhouettes couldn't be seen.

The Black Dragon Warlord had recovered so quickly!

"Damnit, Merlin, we are screwed this time! That lunatic recovered so quickly…" Enderfa's three faces were panicking.

The fight between the Black Dragon Warlord and Gulidan had been too scary. After all, they had both displayed the power of the Heaven Rank!

Lin Yun frowned, and after seeing the Black Dragon Warlord's red tattoos shining, he secretly sighed in relief. "Fortunately, that guy was suppressed by Gulidan's Magic Tool and no longer seems to have the power of a Heaven Rank!"

The Black Dragon Warlord frantically roared in the air for a while, but not seeing Gulidan appear, he turned his gaze towards the battlefield.

Report chapter

Everyone suddenly felt their hearts stop.

'Don't let that lunatic come over here…'

Even Lin Yun couldn't help thinking about it.

Unfortunately, it looked like they jinxed themselves. The Black Dragon Warlord was already enraged because he couldn't find Gulidan and immediately turned his anger towards Lin Yun's group.

The smoke-covered Black Dragon Warlord swiftly charged towards the battlefield.

This made Lin Yun frown and cut him off first.

Lin Yun raised his Draconic Staff and instantly cast three Flame Bursts that attacked the Black Dragon Warlord from three different directions.

The Black Dragon Warlord scowled fiercely and the black smoke condensed around his body transformed into a huge black hand that was over ten meters in size, which swatted away the three Bursting Flames.

The Bursting Flames were knocked away to the side before they exploded harmlessly.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yun's heart skipped a beat. He unhesitantly cast three Ice Shields, and he even added a Runic Shield inside.

In an instant, the Black Dragon Warlord condensed a Demonic Hand, which instantly crossed over a hundred meters before ruthlessly swatting Lin Yun's Ice Shields.

"Bang, bang, bang…"

The sounds of the three Ice Shields shattering softly echoed, and it even sent Lin Yun flying.

Countless runes emerged when the Demonic Hand hit Lin Yun's Runic Shield.

The Runic Shield was effectively Lin Yun's strongest defensive spell because its defensive power wasn't related to the caster's power, but rather to the quantity and the quality of the runes the caster possessed.

And Lin Yun unconditionally had more runes than the absolute majority of top-notch Archmages. That defensive power could last a while under the blows of a 9th Rank Archmage, but it showed signs of nearly collapsing when it was smacked by that Demonic Hand.

That power was so formidable that Lin Yun and his Runic Shield were sent flying a few hundred meters away.

Lin Yun was somewhat pale as he stabilized in the air, feeling quite shocked.

'He fell down from the Heaven Rank but still has that much power?!'

Lin Yun wasn't the only one that was startled… Enderfa and Elsa were also shocked because they knew how strong Lin Yun was. 9th Rank Archmages definitely couldn't send Lin Yun flying like that.

Yet that Black Dragon Warlord was still so powerful after losing his Extraordinary Power?

Seeing the Black Dragon Warlord coming over, Elsa immediately rushed over to block him. Unfortunately, she had just advanced to the 9th Rank and couldn't control her power perfectly, so she kept getting pushed back in the direct confrontation.

At that time, Enderfa, the puppet, Reina, and Zeuss, who had recovered his strength, gave up their counterattack on the mind-controlled enemies and turned to attack the Black Dragon Warlord.

Enderfa and the alchemy puppet released a powerful spell flood, which the Black Dragon Warlord, who was enraged and had lost all reason, didn't think of dodging. The black smoke surging around his body turned into many black scaly shields, which then consolidated to form two huge shields over twenty meters in size.

The smoke around him also formed two pitch-black Demonic Hands, which held the two huge shields to block the spells.

The frantic spell floods hit the two shields and let out rumbling sounds as if they had hit solid stone.

But the Black Dragon Warlord was unscathed, and it only slowed down his attacking speed.

Elsa's magic patterns shone one after another, converging a large amount of wind into a flood of Wind Blades. She also mixed some Dark Arrows within that storm and fiercely pressured the Black Dragon Warlord.

Reina took her Dragon Shape as she chanted complex incantations in Draconic, gathering an endless amount of ice that flowed down from above and tried to engulf the Black Dragon Warlord.

As for Zeuss, he raised his staff and cast whatever spells he could to help out.

Moreover, a few 8th Rank Archmages among the Dark Elves also started focusing their attacks on the Black Dragon Warlord.

Lin Yun, who had flown back, also joined in the attack with a suppressing spell flood of his own. Ordinary spells would have no effect when handling a powerhouse like the Black Dragon Warlord, so the only hope to win was to use enough formidable spells to suppress him.

But despite facing this heaven-shattering tide of spells, the Black Dragon Warlord's face was only filled with rage and craziness.

"Gulidan! Gulidan, come out! You guys must know where Gulidan is, right? You are definitely helping Gulidan! I'll kill you, by killing all of you, Gulidan will definitely appear!"

At that time, the black smoke surrounding the body of the Black Dragon Warlord condensed into two more Demonic Hands that wielded another two huge black shields.

Four Demonic Hands holding those shields were resisting everyone's spells.

And even after resisting their spells, the Black Dragon Warlord roared and blasted the spell floods away.

Then, boundless black smoke surged from his body and erupted, forming fierce storms.

Enderfa, Lin Yun, and the others put all their strength into these spells, only for them to end up being blown away.

The spells were scattered every which way after that vortex of explosions.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Black Dragon Warlord condensed a large number of Demonic Skulls, and over a hundred sinister, grinning skulls with long trails of smoke exploded towards everyone.

A reversal happened in an instant.

The Black Dragon Warlord suppressed Lin Yun's group on his own, and the black smoke condensed into boundless Demonic Spells that sprinkled over at them.

Zeuss was the first to fall. His defensive shields didn't last, and he was sent flying by a Demonic Skull, causing him to bleed heavily. If he hadn't managed to use the Crystal Scales at the last moment, he would have been torn to shreds by the 2nd Demonic Skull coming his way.

Elsa kept casting defensive shields, her body slightly shaking and blood leaking from the corner of her mouth. She couldn't counterattack at all. She spent most of her time defending, but even though she put all her efforts towards protecting herself, she was getting injured by the formidable power.

The others weren't much better off. Only Lin Yun and Enderfa, who had formidable offensive power, could resist. The surface of the puppet was covered in marks, and many of its parts had become scraps.

They were all forced into a passive situation in less than thirty seconds. Although the Black Dragon Warlord's power had fallen from the Heaven Rank, it looked like he had seemingly endless mana, and his casting speed had reached an overwhelming realm. He was definitely comparable to peak 9th Rank Archmages.

On the other side, the mind-controlled non-humans had managed to push forwards again because Lin Yun's group was no longer there to suppress them. In a mere three minutes, they regained the ground everyone had spent half an hour to liberate.

The Dark Elven casualties also sharply increased. Under such circumstances, it would take at most ten minutes for the enemies to reach the inside of the Dark Elven Clan.

Lin Yun had a gloomy and uncertain expression. He was bitterly struggling against the Black Dragon Warlord while looking at the battlefield.

The Dark Elves' casualties were piling up too quickly. If this went on, the outcome of the battle would be irreversible in ten minutes, at most… At that time, the Dark Elves would no longer be able to resist.

'It's not just our group, even the strongest Dark Elves are getting pressured by the Black Dragon Warlord. The remaining Dark Elves simply can't hold on. Ten minutes!

'In ten minutes, the mind-controlled attackers will reach the center of the Dark Elven Clan.

'The three Clan Leaders are occupied and won't be able to help… This is no good, I absolutely can't let the Dark Elven Clan be destroyed. I spent so much effort on this, and that path will become completely unavailable if they are destroyed…

'It'll never be possible to get Constance's skull before advancing to the Archmage realm!'

As he thought of this, Lin Yun gritted his teeth and roared at Elsa and the others, "Go help them! I'll deal with the Black Dragon Warlord!"

"No way!"

Elsa was the first to answer as she refused Lin Yun's suggestion without a second thought.

Enderfa, who was controlling the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel on the side, also refused Lin Yun's suggestion. "Impossible, Merlin, you are courting death. That madman had had the power of a Heaven Rank before, and although it's suppressed, his strength can't be compared to that of an ordinary 9th Rank Archmage!"

The others also had no intention of giving up. They started casting harder and actually managed to slightly suppress the attacking power of the Black Dragon Warlord.

Lin Yun felt warm when he saw everyone's attitudes, but he still shouted with a calm and collected tone, "The Dark Elven Clan will truly be destroyed if those mind-controlled non-humans aren't stopped. Enderfa, you understand the best, you should know my way of thinking. You guys don't have to worry about the Black Dragon Warlord, I can manage on my own."

Hearing Lin Yun's words, the few Dark Elves that had been helping out against the Black Dragon Warlord hesitated, and after seeing the miserable condition of the other Dark Elves, they immediately turned to handle the invaders.

None of the group left until Enderfa gnashed his teeth and chided Merlin before controlling the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to leave. "Merlin, you definitely can't die!"

Chapter 749: Demonic Claw

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Hearing Enderfa, the Incarnation of Lin Yun's True Spirit Magic Tool, say so, the others also understood Lin Yun's determination and stopped attacking the Black Dragon Warlord.

The strongest group of people joined the Dark Elves and tore through the invaders like a knife through butter.

And on this side, the pressure on Lin Yun sharply increased.

Black smoke surged from the Black Dragon Warlord's body and a large number of meteors flew towards Lin Yun from multiple directions.

Lin Yun cast Flame Elemental Incarnation, instant-cast Sea of Fire, and used three Flame Flashes in a row to dodge that group of meteors.

He then raised his Draconic Staff and instantly sent ten Bursting Flames over. The blue flames surged towards Black Dragon Warlord's scaly shields, but at the same time, two blue flames in the back hit each other, and the power of that explosion forcibly altered the path of the remaining Bursting Flames.

Two Bursting Flames passed through the gaps between the black shields and exploded on the Black Dragon Warlord's body.

"Boom, boom!"

The two sounds loudly echoed, and the Black Dragon Warlord's smoke seemed to burst and gather into pitch-black Demonic Hands that ruthlessly swatted at Lin Yun.

"Black Dragon Warlord, I will tell you where Gulidan is as long as you can catch me!" Lin Yun taunted before using Flight to fly out of the Dark Elven Clan.

The smoke that had fallen over the Dark Elven Clan had already somewhat dissipated, giving Lin Yun the opportunity to lure the Black Dragon Warlord away.

Lin Yun would have had no confidence in escaping if that strange black mist was still there. Even the strongest Ancient War Trees were corroded when that smoke fell down, and magic shields couldn't even defend against it.

The black smoke was being blocked by the three Heaven Rank powerhouses, but their circumstances were still unknown. However, the surroundings were a lot clearer now.

The first step was to cloud the Black Dragon Warlord's judgement. The two Bursting Flames clearly didn't have much effect against him, and even with a direct hit, it wouldn't do much damage because of the Black Dragon Warlord's recovery ability.

But this time, the Black Dragon Warlord had already lost his mind, so being hit by a spell made him fly into a rage.

Especially after hearing Lin Yun's words, the irrational Black Dragon Warlord unhesitantly chased after Lin Yun.

Lin Yun kept casting to provoke the Black Dragon Warlord while using Flight to stay away from the Dark Elven Clan.

After a few minutes, the Dark Elven Clan had become smaller and smaller in the distance.

"Damned rat, wait until I catch you, I'll dig out your soul and stuff it in a Kodo's body!"

Lin Yun quickly answered, "If you want to know where Gulidan is, you'll have to catch me! Apart from me, no one knows where Gulidan is! You can forget about becoming a Tribal Chief if you never find him!"

Lin Yun flew at a great speed, continuously casting to hinder the Black Dragon Warlord. 'That guy is really too powerful. He lost his Extraordinary Power, yet he can still fly at such speed while casting!'

Lin Yun was somewhat pale. Not only was the Black Dragon Warlord using Flight, but he was also using a type of Abyssal Spell that increased his flight speed. There was a long trail of black smoke behind him as if he was a meteor.

He was at least 50% faster than Lin Yun, and Lin Yun had to keep casting spells to stop him. Moreover, he absolutely couldn't be hit by the Black Dragon Warlord spells.

Just one spell would stop Lin Yun.

There were always several dozen flaming Meteors flying beside his body, dragging long black tails behind them. Lin Yun was like a small bird flying within a Meteor Shower. He simply couldn't let a single one hit him.

He would inevitably be overtaken by the Black Dragon Warlord if he was hit, and at that time, he would have to directly face the Black Dragon Warlord on his own, which was definitely beyond him.

But slowly, cold sweat started leaking out from Lin Yun's forehead as he pushed his control over the Flight spell to the pinnacle but still wasn't able to pull away from the Black Dragon Warlord.

With this speed, it would take at most three minutes before he was overtaken!

Lin Yun kept himself calm as he clenched his teeth. He stopped trying to weave and sway, choosing to cut through the sky in a straight line.

In a split second, four to five meteors grazed Lin Yun's body, and his hair slightly burnt from the high temperature. The thick smell of sulfur spread in the air, and it felt as if he had hot pepper in his lungs. The painful heat made Lin Yun's eyes turn slightly red.

The distance between Lin Yun and the Black Dragon Warlord did increase a bit, but how could the Black Dragon Warlord not see this opportunity?

"Damn rat, you are dead! You are dead! No, I decided not to kill you, but instead, I'll put your soul into a Kodo, and I'll make you eat your own body! I want to watch you as you see yourself eating your own body as a Kodo, I want to make you feel your own body slowly digesting."

"Haha, you are screwed, and Gulidan is also screwed! If you let me find Gulidan, you'll both die!"

Black smoke surged from the Black Dragon Warlord's body, and in an instant, forty to fifty meteors rushed out. This group of flaming meteors flew in an arc to charge at Lin Yun from every angle.

Just as it looked like they were going to strike Lin Yun, he increased his speed once again and appeared several dozen meters away in a split second. The flaming meteors collided in the same spot and caused a terrifying explosion to appear.

A large amount of lava, flames, and fragments spread in all directions. The fragments carried very destructive power, and some of them hit Lin Yun's Mana Shield.

The dark blue Mana Shield turned into a sphere that firmly protected Lin Yun's body, and as it was swept by the fragments and the shockwave, it suddenly shone with a glaring light and 20% of Lin Yun's mana was consumed.

And this dark blue sphere was violently sent flying like a big ball.

The Mana Shield quickly dimmed, but Lin Yun was also knocked several hundred meters away in an instant.

As the light of the shield cracked, blood leaked from the corner of Lin Yun's mouth, and his pale complexion was terrifying.

Not only did the huge explosion send Lin Yun further away, but it also slowed the Black Dragon Warlord.

Lin Yun floated in the air, and instead of taking the opportunity to fly faster, he raised his Draconic Staff, and the Book of Death in his left hand started shining with a four-colored light, the glaring radiance covering Lin Yun.

Lin Yun's mana instantly became fierce and several dozen spells of the four elements condensed in the air.

The spells crazily flew behind Lin Yun while the next set of spells was readied.

In no less than three seconds, Lin Yun used all his strength and the support of the Element Chapter to cast several hundred elemental spells. These spells converged into a narrow space before suddenly collapsing.

The collapse of the spells scattered the most berserk elemental power, and with the four elements mixing together, it turned into an extremely berserk Quad-Elemental Storm. It was like a tornado mixed with a large river that ruthlessly charged towards the Black Dragon Warlord in the back.

After doing that, Lin Yun immediately used Flight to escape, flying away while adding some support spells, even if they didn't have that much effect.

And behind him, the violent Four-Element Storm kept attracting the rich magic elements. As they merged with it, the storm grew bigger and bigger, creating a several-hundred-meter-wide storm vortex in the air.

Each tree of the forest underneath had grown for several thousand years. They were all at least a hundred meters tall, but they were swept away by the Quad-Elemental Storm and turned to shreds.

It had to be known that after growing in this place for so many years, the trees had absorbed nutrients from the Wisdom Tree, and the most inferior one was equivalent to an Iron Tree, literally as hard as iron.

But they only looked like rotten wood easily shattering.

The Black Dragon Warlord couldn't dodge and dove headfirst into that elemental storm. The berserk storm kept tearing at the black smoke shrouding him, and his shadow kept tearing apart and stretching.

He kept condensing more of those black, scaly shields, and just as the shields were torn to shreds by the storm, new ones immediately condensed.

The Black Dragon Warlord seemed to be in a bind. He was like an animal drawn into a tornado, tumbling through the tornado and unable to leave even if he wanted to.

Lin Yun glanced back and felt a bit less anxious. It would have been troublesome if he had been overtaken there.

"Black Dragon Warlord, let me tell you something. You'll be dead when you catch up! I'll go find the most faithful supporter of the Ash Beastman Tribe's Tribal Chief. He is a lot more powerful than you, so if you pursue, you'll certainly die. And he also knows where Gulidan is!"

Lin Yun's words made the Black Dragon Warlord fly into a rage. "Damnit! Damnit! Damnit! You f*cking wretches! You are only a tiny fleeing rat, I can snap you in two with one hand!

"What nonsense are you talking about? Gulidan's supporter has to die, Gulidan also has to die, I am the strongest, so you'll all die!"

Black smoke surged around the Black Dragon Warlord's body and formed huge Demonic Claws that frantically tore through the elemental storm.

Chapter 750: You'll All Die

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

In less than three seconds, Lin Yun saw the elemental storm, which was a kilometer away, being forcibly torn to shreds by the Black Dragon Warlord.

Seeing this, Lin Yun knew that the storm was definitely unable to injure the Black Dragon Warlord, and his eyelid couldn't help twitching.

'This lunatic is too fierce, he can even tear apart an elemental storm?!'

Lin Yun didn't tarry after glancing back. He quickly flew towards a branch of the Wisdom Tree by following the route he remembered, not caring if there were any dangerous magic beasts on the way.

After landing on that thick branch, Lin Yun quickly found the Teleportation Array and took out two crystal pens before his hands turned into shadows drawing on the array.

After five seconds, Lin Yun poured a large amount of mana into it and entered the Teleportation Array, which let out a lot of light.

Black smoke could be seen in the distance just like a dense sea of black clouds. The Black Dragon Warlord saw Lin Yun and shouted, "Where are you trying to run! Let me catch you, I must make you regret not being dead! I want to put your soul in a Kodo and turn you into an idiot that only knows how to eat, I want you to see it with your own eyes, I won't let you die for a century, for a millennium!

"B*stard, you dare to refuse to tell me where Gulidan is… You are dead, and he is also dead, you are all dead!"

"Haha…" Lin Yun sneered as his body disappeared within the light of the array.

The Black Dragon Warlord flew to the thick branch and unhesitantly pressed both hands on the array. The smoke around him turned into a pillar, which rushed into the Teleportation Array.

The dim Teleportation Array immediately shone, and a second later, the Black Dragon Warlord also disappeared.

On the other side, a dark Teleportation Array lit up on a hill in the depths of the Night Valley. A pillar of light rose up from it, and Lin Yun suddenly appeared.

Just as he appeared, Lin Yun immediately used Fire Elemental Incarnation and vigilantly checked his surroundings.

'Sure enough, this place regained its calm after so long!'

This place was the place they had barely managed to escape, the depths of the Night Valley. The traces of the battles could still be seen. There was scorched earth everywhere, and the terrain had also been greatly altered. A branch of the Wisdom Tree could even be seen in the distance.

The Elven Elegy had been used here before, and the terrain had been tossed all about. The originally smooth floor had disappeared and chaotic bulges filled the area. There was only one strange area in the deepest part of the Night Valley that was flat.

Lin Yun sneered. He naturally knew that this was an illusion. 'It looks like he went back to slumber.'

Seeing the Teleportation Array brighten again, Lin Yun unhesitantly raised his Draconic Staff, and a flame vortex appeared above that area.

The flame vortex was aiming at the flat ground, and countless fire spells flew out from within, just like a huge column of flame connecting heaven and earth.

At that time, the originally smooth ground distorted, and the illusion dissipated as a deep, pitch-black abyss appeared.

"Ba-thump… Ba-thump…"

The heartbeat that made people's souls' shiver echoed once again in Lin Yun's ears. That sound felt as if it had forcibly entered one's head, echoing from inside out.

Within the abyss, black mist was curled around a huge heart, which was peacefully throbbing. A dark-skinned Ash Beastman had both hands stuck into that heart with his eyes closed, seemingly sleeping.

When the flames fell down and hit the mist on the surface of the heart, the black mist that had been slowly flowing alongside the heartbeat was suddenly roused like water in boiling oil.

Black mist surged from the heart like a kind of smoke signal and ruthlessly struck the column of fire.

Duncan, whose hands were stuck to the heart, opened his eyes, and his pitch-black eyes were filled with rage.

"Who? Who dares to disturb my sleep this time!?" Duncan's angry shout echoed in the air.

After summoning the flame vortex, Lin Yun hurriedly escaped towards the first half of the Night Valley.

A large amount of black smoke appeared in the air, and the surging black smoke turned into three huge vortexes, in which Duncan spat three Abyssal Runes.

In an instant, a jet-black light membrane appeared in the center of the vortexes as countless Abyssal Lifeforms rushed out from the Abyssal Gates.

Evil Water Elementals, Reapers, Abyssal Imps, and Crypt Fiends poured out of these Abyssal Gates like fountains of water.

Abyssal aura spread through the air as the Abyssal lifeforms touched the ground, and they discovered Lin Yun at the same time.

But at that moment, the Teleportation Array shone brightly once again, and another pillar of light appeared. Then, billowing black smoke could be seen within the pillar.

The Black Dragon Warlord rushed out, and the first thing he noticed was the huge group of Abyssal lifeforms, and then the Abyssal Gates floating in the air.

"All die! Everyone must die!"

The Black Dragon Warlord roared in anger. He looked at those Abyssal lifeforms and the Abyssal Gates and immediately recalled Lin Yun's words. 'Someone with such power must definitely be a 9th Rank Demon Arch-Warlock!

The Black Dragon Warlord was already irrational, and he immediately concluded that this was an ambush. When he saw all of these Abyssal lifeforms surrounding him, the anger he had accumulated for a long time finally burst out.

The smoke gathered behind the Black Dragon Warlord turned into a dozen Demonic Claws.

One Demonic Claw after another fell from the sky and ruthlessly slashed at those Abyssal lifeforms. In less than three seconds, the several hundred of them were all killed by the Black Dragon Warlord.

The three Abyssal Gates were also shredded by the Demonic Claws.

The Black Dragon Warlord's attention then fell onto Duncan, overlooking Lin Yun for the time being.

"You are the Tribal Chief's supporter?" the Black Dragon Warlord angrily shouted. But he didn't give Duncan time to answer and summoned over a hundred flaming meteors that crashed down towards Duncan.

Duncan became enraged. He had been sleeping and was suddenly attacked without warning. Now, someone he had never seen before suddenly attacked him and Constance's heart. How could he not fight back?

Duncan glared at him and started chanting Abyssal Runes. As each rune flew out, boundless Abyssal Power was summoned and black smoke turned into dark clouds. One after another, sinister demonic faces appeared on those black clouds.

In an instant, over a hundred black Frost Spikes flew out and fiercely collided against the flaming meteors.

A terrifying shockwave appeared above the abyss, and the black smoke swept across in a circle, making the surviving Abyssal lifeforms scream in alarm before being torn to shreds.

After that attack, Duncan discovered Lin Yun hiding in the distance. "It's you! You damn b*stard! You still dare to appear here!"

Duncan had a very sinister expression, and the whites of his eyes couldn't even be seen. He was covered in black smoke and seemed ready to explode. The enraged Duncan inevitably believed that the Black Dragon Warlord was a helper that Lin Yun had found. "Sir, you have definitely been deceived by that guy…"

Duncan barely managed to suppress his rage and tried to persuade the crazy Black Dragon Warlord, but all that welcomed him was the Black Dragon Warlord's fierce attack.

A dozen Demonic Claws ruthlessly swiped at the heart. How could Duncan ignore this? The heart was something he greatly relied on, it was his reverse scale 1 . The Black Dragon Warlord attacking the heart thoroughly pissed Duncan off.

Duncan removed a hand from the heart, and the skin could be seen withering at a rapid pace before the flesh turned to ashes and dissipated, only leaving black bones that aimed at the Black Dragon Warlord.

Boundless black smoke rushed out as a black rune appeared on Duncan's palm. A huge demonic skull that was thirty meters in size appeared above Duncan's head. It was similar to an Ox Beastman's skull but with an alligator's maw.

The Demonic Skull opened its bloody maw wide to welcome the dozen Demonic Claws.

"Crack… Crack…"

Those Demonic Claws were torn to pieces from a few bites, and the maw even rushed towards the Black Dragon Warlord after taking care of them.

The Demonic Skull only bit the ground as the Black Dragon Warlord quickly dodged. The black earth was as soft as cheese for those powerful teeth.

A huge hole was left, over twenty meters wide and a bit under ten meters deep. Lin Yun felt a chill when he saw that. The ground there wasn't ordinary… It was the solidified accumulation of the rotten leaves and branches of the Wisdom Trees over countless years. It was also a branch of the Wisdom Tree!

Duncan was getting stronger and stronger, he was even a bit more powerful than last time. It truly felt like he was just one step away from breaking through to the Heaven Rank. He was only using one hand!

'Should I intervene? I absolutely can't let Duncan convince the Black Dragon Warlord, I definitely can't have the Black Dragon Warlord come to deal with me. I'm dead if these two team up against me…'

Just as Lin Yun was hesitating, the Black Dragon Warlord burst out in anger, "It's you! You are dead! Dead! You are all dead!"

The irrational Black Dragon Warlord's first impression was the strongest, so he believed that Duncan was Gulidan's hidden force. After losing his reason, the only thought in his mind was to get rid of Duncan.

Chapter 751: Seeking Death

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Moreover, when comparing Lin Yun and Duncan, the Black Dragon Warlord felt that getting rid of Duncan first was more important.

The black smoke on the Black Dragon Warlord's body kept billowing. A large number of Meteors and a large-scale Fire Rain appeared in the air and kept falling onto Duncan's body.

Duncan's words couldn't be heard, and in less than ten seconds, only rage was left in his eyes.

His arm had already turned into fleshless black bones, and his other hand also left the surface of the heart.

Seeing this, Lin Yun immediately felt reassured. 'Sure enough, I had guessed it last time. The heart really doesn't have formidable power, it only has a particularly attractive power. It is in the middle of its growth and is constantly devouring power to mature. When facing the crazy Black Dragon Warlord, the heart might truly suffer damage, and that thing is Duncan's reverse scale. No matter the situation, Duncan wouldn't be willing to let the heart suffer any injury!'

Duncan's flesh quickly withered as his hands left the heart, going from his limbs to his body before finally reaching his skull.

It only took a moment for Duncan's flesh to completely turn to ashes, leaving only a black skeleton. Only a heart was still throbbing within his bony chest, and with every beat, black smoke surged from it, filling the entire skeletal body.

"Damn b*stard, I will make you pay the price!"

Duncan became even angrier as he saw the Black Dragon Warlord crazily casting spells that exploded in the heart's surroundings. Flames throbbed in his skeletal eyes, just like an enraged Undead being, and the frequency of his heartbeat also kept rising.

Duncan raised both hands and countless runes flew out. A large amount of black smoke converged together and formed twelve vortexes in the air.

Abyssal Spells spurted out of these twelve black smoke vortexes, along with green poisonfire and black ice.

The frantic Abyssal Spells converged together into a terrifying wave that ruthlessly charged towards the Black Dragon Warlord.

The Black Dragon Warlord raised his hands and black smoke spread from his arms, transforming into two demonic arms that were each over thirty meters long. The demonic arms opened their huge hands, which faced the wave like two big shields.

At the same time, scaly shields condensed on the surface of these two demonic hands, making the demonic arms look even fiercer.

A large number of Abyssal Spells bombarded the surface of the demonic arms, but ear-piercing bell-like metallic sounds echoed in succession as all the Abyssal Spells were blocked.

There were even some Abyssal Spells that were scattered and ended up exploding harmlessly behind the Black Dragon Warlord.

The flood of Abyssal Spells scrubbed the ground, and in a split second, the uneven ground seemed to have been scraped by someone's blade. All the protruding parts, whether they were a dozen meters tall or only a few meters tall, were completely in pieces.

At this time, a flat area of land that was several hundred meters long and several dozen meters wide appeared.

The Black Dragon Warlord extended his arms, making the two demonic arms fiercely shake before five sharp claws appeared on each of the two hands.

The demonic hands clawed in the shape of an "X" and ruthlessly tore apart the wave of spells, creating a visible shockwave at the place they criss-crossed.

It only took a moment for the terrifying Abyssal Spellwave to be forcibly torn apart by the two huge demonic claws.

The terrifying shockwave swept the surroundings and fiercely struck the hill on the right side, scoring a deep, several-hundred-meter-long crack in it.

And the hills on both sides were actually branches of the Wisdom Tree!

It was a Wisdom Tree Branch, it wasn't like the ground made of rotten leaves and branches!

Even if the Wisdom Tree's leaves were solid, they couldn't compare to a branch!

After all, when the God Nation would be excavated in the future, Heaven Rank powerhouses would be needed to chop a branch, and it was very costly to mobilize a Heaven Rank powerhouse. Those below the most top-tier Archmages simply shouldn't even think of damaging branches of the Wisdom Tree, let alone cutting them off.

But the aftermath of the battle between these two lunatics was enough to create that enormous rift in a branch!

This was truly frightening…

Cold sweat was dripping down Lin Yun's forehead. It was fortunate that they had sieged the Black Dragon Warlord in the Dark Elven Clan, not giving him the opportunity to focus on attack and forcing him to scatter his focus. This allowed them to withstand his power. But Lin Yun could now see how frightening he was against a single opponent.

It seemed that even if he was suppressed by Gulidan's Aura and no longer had Extraordinary Power, he definitely was a powerhouse that was one step into the Heaven Rank!

The Black Dragon Warlord's burst not only shattered Duncan's Abyssal Spellwave, but even continued to sweep towards the heart like a sharp blade.

Duncan was greatly alarmed. He couldn't stay too far from the heart, but he also couldn't fight for long, and the heart couldn't be moved. He could only bear with it and resist for now.

With a roar, a huge hemisphere-shaped light barrier appeared in front of Duncan. It looked like a stream was flowing on the dark blue light barrier, and there were also countless spinning ice fragments.

The light barrier collided with the shockwave and emitted a sharp sound from the friction. Visible ripples spread from the light barrier to the surroundings, making the space fluctuate.

The countless ice fragments on the light barrier kept bursting with power as they shot forward before bouncing in other directions, but many of them shattered.

A corner of the light barrier suddenly collapsed, and a ripple landed on the huge heart. The black smoke in the heart's surroundings kept surging, and the entire heart fiercely shook… It even stopped beating for a bit.

This time, the flames in Duncan's skeletal eyes flickered and rose, igniting the skull as Duncan flew into a rage and let out a roar that shook space itself. "You are looking for your doom! You are courting death!"

A terrifying power emerged on Duncan's body. The berserk aura was like an explosion that instantly swept out and destroyed every spell within a few hundred meters. All the spells collapsed and turned into black smoke that frantically rushed into the heart.

The black smoke lingering on the heart also started to float out, and strands started curling towards the surface of Duncan's bones. Duncan's skull turned black almost instantly.

In the distance, surprise suddenly appeared in Lin Yun's eyes.

'Duncan went insane! He actually let the heart assimilate him, he doesn't want to live! It'll be over once he is assimilated, there will be no way to recover!

'He can go all-out without time limit, but in the end, he will definitely be swallowed by the heart, leaving him thoroughly dead.'

Above the abyss, after Duncan's bones became completely black, threads started appearing between the huge heart and Duncan. These threads appeared everywhere on Duncan's body. The assimilation was already more than halfway done.

Previously, he might have been able to risk using one thread to borrow the heart's power in order to reach the Heaven Rank, but this was no longer possible now.

Because the relationship he had barely managed to set up before was a relationship where they both took advantage of each other. The heart was luring Duncan in by supporting him and making him stronger, and Duncan kept providing the heart with something to devour.

Now, Duncan allowed the heart to assimilate him. When that process was complete, Duncan would be like the previously devoured Abyssal lifeforms and turn to ashes.

But if Duncan couldn't go all-out, he would inevitably be killed by the crazy Black Dragon Warlord.

After the black threads appeared on Duncan's bones, Duncan painfully roared. The black threads kept moving until they finally aimed at Duncan's only living organ, his heart.

Once the last thread fell on his heart, an ominous glint appeared in Duncan's eyes. He extended one hand towards his own heart before ruthlessly squeezing.

With a loud popping sound, his heart was shattered, and Duncan's last bit of blood sprayed out. The black threads linking him to the heart were also completely severed.

At this time, Duncan angrily roared, and he walked out of the abyss step after step. The aura on his body had also become a lot more powerful.

Lin Yun was a bit shocked. 'Damn, Duncan is truly insane. He actually used that method to thoroughly sever the control of that huge heart. With his heart destroyed, he doesn't have a single bit of blood remaining. He can no longer regain his body and will forever keep this skeletal appearance!

'Without being able to recover his body, his power will forever remain at that level. He isn't one of the Undead, but he surpasses Undead lifeforms. But with only a skeleton, he won't be able to advance to the Heaven Rank and can't even become one of the Undead!

'This guy is truly berserk…'

As Lin Yun expected, the Black Dragon Warlord was truly irrational, and that had caused Duncan to go berserk out of rage.

Without the control of that huge heart, Duncan could fully display his strength!

As he raised his hand, black runes flew out of Duncan's bones. These black runes devoured a large amount of smoke as they flew up.

In an instant, a dozen huge black Frost Spikes appeared in the air.

These Frost Spikes flickered with a metallic luster, and countless black runes could be seen on their surface. They transformed into a shadow that charged towards the Black Dragon Warlord.

The Black Dragon Warlord loudly shouted and his face distorted as the demonic hands flew out and fiercely swatted at the Frost Spikes.

But unexpectedly, the runes on the dozen Frost Spikes suddenly flashed a bit and they instantly pierced through the demonic hands.

The demonic hands ended up instantly freezing into black blocks of ice, which fell to the ground and shattered.

Chapter 752: Entangled

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The Black Dragon Warlord saw this scene but didn't dodge. One of his two hands used a scaly shield to block in front of him while the other carried some spatial fluctuations as it moved at a terrifying speed towards Duncan.

The dozen Frost Spikes collided against the huge hand in front of the Black Dragon Warlord and instantly pierced through it. Moreover, as the Frost Spikes' runes shone, a black light flashed on the hand and it was instantly frozen.

The smoke on the Black Dragon Warlord's body burst out and forcibly altered the path of the black Frost Spikes as he dodged past them.

But his left hand was still grazed by the black ice… A rune instantly shone and the Black Dragon Warlord's left hand was completely frozen. The terrifying light followed his arm and spread towards his chest.

Boundless black smoke converged towards the Black Dragon Warlord's left shoulder and fiercely collided with that black light. Then, a loud bang echoed as the Black Dragon Warlord's arm exploded into fragments of ice.

As for those huge black Frost Spikes, they shot towards the hill on the other side and silently bore through the branch of the Wisdom Tree, hitting at a height of ten meters, but not piercing through the branch. Each of them left a terrifying black hole behind, and black light spread across the ground, sweeping over a kilometer and freezing everything on its way into more black ice.

With a simple breeze, everything frozen by the black light shattered, and no protuberances could be seen anywhere. Only the fragments of ice on the smooth floor could be seen.

And on the other side, Duncan, who was finally able to go all-out, was smashed head-on by a demonic claw ripping through space. A series of bone-shattering sounds echoed as Duncan's body was sent flying like an artillery shell.

"Bang!"

A loud sound echoed as Duncan's body crashed against the floor, forming a large hole, and the ground within several hundred meters was filled with cracks.

The black flames within Duncan's eye sockets flickered, and numerous cracks appeared on his bones, but he unhesitantly flew up and once again charged towards the Black Dragon Warlord.

As for the Black Dragon Warlord himself, the madness within his eyes hadn't decreased at all even though he had lost an arm and he also soared over to keep fighting Duncan.

Lin Yun was stunned.

'This is truly scary. The extremely condensed earth was frozen by a rune carved on a Frost Spike. By relying on the Frost Spike's terrifying penetrative power, he froze such a large area…

'That's the power of someone half-way into the Heaven Rank, just a wisp of power can cause such heaven-defying changes…

'And the Black Dragon Warlord's claw attack was even stronger. It seemed to tear through space and instantly appear in front of Duncan. It already has the characteristic of Extraordinary Power. After being suppressed by Gulidan, how could he still have so much power?'

Lin Yun was shocked. He had originally planned on attracting the Black Dragon Warlord over and using his crazy temper and unstable state to make him fight Duncan to death.

But he hadn't expected the Black Dragon Warlord to be so powerful, and he was also too fast. Attracting him here was already very difficult, but Lin Yun couldn't even think of leaving right now.

The Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan were both crazy. The battlefield spread for several kilometers, and the Teleportation Array happened to be in the depths of the Night Valley. If he went over, he would be caught in the battle and would definitely be in trouble.

Lin Yun frowned and hid in the distance to watch the two fighting with no regard for their lives.

The Black Dragon Warlord's arm had been destroyed, but it didn't really impact his power. Black smoke gathered towards his left side and quickly condensed into another pitch-black demonic arm, which was a bit bigger than his thigh and longer than his own height!

More smoke converged into a light ball flickering with black lightning. It had a long black trail of smoke behind it as it revolved around the Black Dragon Warlord's body.

There was also black smoke lingering on Duncan's body. It condensed into sinister armor that covered his crack-lined bones.

The front of his armor was an angry roaring demonic skull, and as copious smoke converged together, the armor quickly extended and formed armguards, leg protectors, a helmet, and other parts.

The sinister and powerful aura burst out from Duncan's body and raised a black gale that revolved around him.

The strange silence didn't last more than a second before the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan simultaneously roared.

The black smoke above the Black Dragon Warlord converged into a demonic shadow that let out a ferocious roar, and in an instant, over a hundred flaming meteors appeared in the air tightly packed in an area that was only a few hundred meters wide. Their crazy power could be felt from the spatial ripples spreading in all directions.

And on the other side, the black flames suddenly burst out of Duncan eye sockets and grew to over half a meter. The skeletal mouth opened wide as he chanted an eerie, awkward-sounding Abyssal incantation.

Black runes made out of smoke flew out of Duncan's mouth and gathered in front of Duncan's body to form a flying sphere of black ice.

The sphere frantically spun as it flew out. After flying over a dozen meters, several slender diamond-shaped fragments of ice flew out of it.

In a split second, numerous blurry ice edges flew towards the Black Dragon Warlord like rain.

The countless black ice edges struck the flame meteors, and loud explosions kept echoing in the sky as if cannons were being fired in succession.

Large fragments of lava and ice exploded together and spread in all directions for over a kilometer.

The waves of compressed air caused a sharp, ear-piercing noise. The depths of the Night Valley instantly became heavily damaged, and the solid ground was filled with dreadful small holes. Those fragments seemed just as terrifying as the previous Frost Spikes, turning the hard earth into a honeycomb.

Cold sweat dripped down Lin Yun's face. He definitely couldn't resist these two people's all-out burst, but this was a crucial moment. If he moved ever so slightly, he might attract the attention of the two Beastmen. He was now hiding behind a branch of the Wisdom Tree at a high altitude and hadn't released a single spell. He even kept his mana fluctuations hidden. This allowed him to reduce this presence to a minimum.

A single move would inevitably drag him into the battle of the two lunatics, and both wanted to kill him.

As he pondered, Lin Yun decided to remain motionless for the time being. He would wait until these two finished their fight before doing anything.

The powerful attacks collided, but neither of them had the advantage. Before the aftermath even cleared up, the two of them charged at each other once again.

The Black Dragon Warlord extended his left hand and the demonic hand instantly grew. From its original length two meters, it now reached over twenty meters, while the claw at the end grew to be ten meters long.

The Black Dragon Warlord swung that huge hand and blocked the fragments shooting in his direction before ruthlessly clawing at his opponent.

At the same time, a large number of black runes spurted out of Duncan's mouth. These runes swallowed the surrounding black smoke and transformed into a large demonic skull. That demonic skull opened its mouth wide and swallowed the fragments flying towards it before rushing towards its opponent.

"Snap!"

A sharp sound echoed as the area between the two powerhouses that was rich in smoke was swept by some irresistible power. All the smoke spread into the surroundings because of the shockwave.

There, Duncan stood behind the demonic skull with his hands sticking to the back of it.

The demonic skull was ruthlessly biting onto the Black Dragon Warlord's huge demonic hand.

Sinister sharp teeth grew out from the demonic skull's mouth. These teeth, which looked more like swords, tore at the demonic hand's defenses.

Sparks kept emerging between the two. The demonic skull ruthlessly bit down on three of the demonic hand's fingers, and metallic grinding sounds echoed. The sharp teeth were tearing through the demonic hand bit by bit.

After no less than three seconds, a loud snapping sound echoed as the demonic hand was forcibly bit down by the demonic skull. At the same time, the demonic skull's chin shattered from the power of the demonic hand.

But even then, the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan didn't withdraw. The hand and the skull simultaneously exploded and transformed into a large amount of smoke.

At this time, Duncan and the Black Dragon Warlord were already ten meters away from each other, and such a distance was already very dangerous for the two Ash Beastmen proficient in Abyssal Spells, so they were still rushing towards each other.

The Black Dragon Warlord extended his intact right hand, and the black smoke behind him converged in front of it to form a large black sphere.

It was only three to four meters in size when it first appeared, but as the thick smoke converged towards it, it doubled in size in half a second, and there was no sign of black smoke on it… It looked more like a dense and thick oily black sphere.

On the other side, Duncan also raised his two skeletal arms, and a big black sphere also converged in front of him.

In an instant, the two similar dense oily spheres came together and collided.

Chapter 753: Both Sides Suffer

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Terrifying black lightning appeared at the point of impact between the two black spheres. One after another, snake-like bolts of lightning kept revolving around the two black spheres.

A black bolt of lightning rushed towards the ground and blasted a hole that was over ten meters wide. It should be known that the ground there was sturdier than Iron Essence!

Then, countless glaring black lightning bolts shot in all directions, and the sounds of explosions never stopped.

The ground within a kilometer had originally been flattened by the earlier shockwave before being turned into a honeycomb by the fragments of the collision, but it was now filled with huge holes. Dust and large fragments were sent flying up before being pressured back down by the power permeating the air.

The terrifying fluctuations spread between the two large spheres and the air became heavier as one ripple after another could be seen slowly spreading out.

In just three to four seconds, the horrible pressure prevented any more fragments from leaving the ground.

After another three to four seconds, cracks began to appear on the ground as if it couldn't handle the heavy burden. Cracks even started appearing on the hillsides.

It was worse on the domed sky. A crack that was over a kilometer long could be seen spreading. A large number of fragments fell down from it, but after falling down a dozen meters, they were repelled back up.

The Black Dragon Warlord ground his teeth and his face distorted as he pushed the black sphere in front of him. As for Duncan, the black flames within his eye sockets fiercely flickered as he also used his hands to push the black sphere.

The black smoke around them had already converged into the black spheres, and even more terrible fluctuations were emerging as a violent and oppressive power rapidly aggregated.

Lin Yun became deathly pale. This was no longer a matter of attracting attention. 'Damn, these two lunatics… Don't drag me down with you if you want to die! They are competing in terms of mana, they have completely lost their minds!'

Indeed, the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan hadn't been able to overwhelm each other with their spells, so they began the most dangerous and terrifying battle of mana.

As long as one wasn't completely unhinged, no mage would do this kind of thing!

Competing over mana meant giving up on all spells, all mysteries, just to focus on winning with pure mana. This was comparable to warriors abandoning all technique and just fist-fighting.

One of the bloodiest and most dangerous duels among warriors was called the three steps flesh beating. The size of the battlefield was only three steps, and the two opponents would have no place to dodge as deadly traps would be installed behind them. The one who was forced to take a step back would die.

But when compared to mages staking everything on a direct confrontation of mana, even the most arrogant warrior would sweat when hearing about it and would definitely say that this was more dangerous than the three steps flesh beating.

Because it didn't matter who won in a fierce contest of mana… Unless the gap was huge and it was done just to pressure an opponent, the best outcome would be suffering 80% of the damage the enemy suffered. The loser would suffer backlash and his mana would instantly ignite. At that time, let alone his body, his soul would also burn.

The best outcome for the winner would be losing the majority of his mana and losing a rank. If it went a bit poorly for them, they could get a terrifying mana backlash and become crippled.

If the two were evenly matched, then both of them would surely die…

Now… The competition between the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan had lasted for no less than ten seconds. Lin Yun could already foresee the final outcome, especially since the reaction of the two black spheres converging was becoming more and more chaotic. He immediately cast Haste and turned around to flee.

Lin Yun had flown for over a kilometer when something happened behind him.

A small black dot that didn't emit a single bit of mana fluctuation appeared between the two spheres. As the black dot appeared, the two black spheres started distorting.

It looked as if a hole had been pierced into the two black spheres and the insides of the spheres were spilling towards the small black dot in the center.

In an instant, that black spot casually grew to become a black sphere of its own that was half a meter in size.

That small sphere devoured the two black spheres containing the mana of the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan before suddenly letting out a terrifying fluctuation.

The Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan simply couldn't do anything when that small black sphere exploded.

It felt as if darkness kept silently expanding and continuously devoured everything in its surroundings, but it only looked like an ordinary shadow.

When coming into contact with the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan, it looked as if their bodies were hit by a Golden Behemoth. They turned into blurs as they were sent flying over a kilometer away and ruthlessly crashed into two hills.

Two loud bangs echoed as a large cloud of dust rose on both sides, and by the dust settled, Lin Yun could see holes on both sides that were several hundred meters wide. The Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan were both lying down at the bottom of these holes.

The armor on the Black Dragon Warlord's body had already disintegrated, everything under his right knee had disappeared, and he was covered with blood as if blood had been poured all over him.

And Duncan wasn't any better. The sinister armor he had condensed had completely shattered and his black bones were filled with numerous cracks just like a glass bottle on the verge of breaking.

In the center of the battlefield, that rising spherical shadow spread and covered everything within two to three kilometers.

After spreading to that point, the spherical shadow instantly collapsed and shrank back to a small dot before dissipating as if it had never been there.

But it left behind a kilometer-wide hole, and it looked as if everything there had been devoured by a giant mouth.

Lin Yun was sweating and stopped flying away. He would have lost his life if he kept flying towards the first half of the Night Valley, and moreover, Lin Yun clearly knew that the current situation wasn't over!

Lin Yun quickly landed and then waved his Draconic Staff while chanting some sounds. In an instant, Askrim Gates kept appearing in front of Lin Yun.

Nine of these deep blue ice gates rose up in a sharp line between him and the hole, and after setting them up, Lin Yun additionally protected himself with a Runic Shield.

After finishing that, a terrifying fluctuation emerged from that hole, and it felt like the real power was bursting out at this time.

The gravity within several kilometers suddenly disappeared. The fragments within the large hole started floating up and large pieces of debris slowly drifted into the air.

Seeing this scene, the two injured Ash Beastmen seemed to have come to their senses after the large consumption of mana. The madness present within the eyes of the Black Dragon Warlord had greatly disappeared, replaced by reason.

The frantic black flames within Duncan's eyes also calmed down, and because of the overuse of mana, the flames were now so small that they seemed ready to extinguish anytime.

The Ash Beastmen didn't care about their mana consumption or their injuries and unhesitantly used the most powerful defenses they could use at this moment.

Layers of black scaly shields appeared in front of the Black Dragon Warlord, while layers of black Ice Shields appeared in front of Duncan.

At this time, all the fragments floating in that area simultaneously turned to ashes, regardless of their size, as a terrifying shockwave burst out from the hole.

The space violently shook as this shockwave spread in all directions.

As the shockwave swept over, the nine layers of Askrim Gates that Lin Yun had set up were destroyed one layer after another. The first layer turned to ash just as it was touched.

And the 2nd, and the 3rd…

The nine layers simply couldn't resist, they were all instantly shattered. After the shockwave broke the nine Askrim Gates, it directly hit Lin Yun's Runic Shield.

"Crack…"

A sharp sound echoed as the Runic Shield was covered in cracks. The runes surging on the surface of the Runic Shield seemed frozen and the light darkened.

In an instant, the shockwave passed through, and at that time, Lin Yun's Runic Shield was completely shattered and he spat out blood.

He turned his head to take a look and saw the spatial cracks not far behind him being torn to shreds by this shockwave. And in the front was a several-kilometer-wide, fifty-meter-deep hole, and on the edge of the hole, the ground seemed to have been forcibly stripped away for a dozen meters!

As for the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan, their situation had become even worse. The two of them had suffered due to the mana competition, and they only survived because of their unusual constitutions.

The Black Dragon Warlord was originally an Ash Beastman with a formidable constitution that had been infected with evil power. His recovery ability was terrifying, and even if his bones were completely shattered, it wouldn't take too long for him to recover.

Duncan had spent over a millennium next to that huge heart, and after losing his flesh, his skeleton had become even more powerful. He wasn't one of the Undead, but his vitality was stronger than that of the Undead.

Chapter 754: Damn Rat

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The Black Dragon Warlord lost an arm and a leg, and his chest had sunken. Duncan's legs had disappeared, and his lower body was shrouded in a large amount of black smoke.

"Damn rat! I didn't kill you last time, yet you still dared to appear before me and instigate this fight with that lunatic! You must die!" The black flames in Duncan's eyes shook, and his angry shout made Lin Yun's ears buzz.

Hearing Duncan's words, the Black Dragon Warlord immediately flew into a rage. "Damnit! You are dead! You actually dared to use me! Even Gulidan wouldn't dare to do so! No one can save you today!"

After saying that, the Black Dragon Warlord was surrounded by a large amount of black smoke as he flew up. He was missing an arm and a leg and it was unknown how many of his bones had been broken, but he still seemed as powerful as ever.

Duncan also flew up, which revealed that everything from his waist down had disappeared and his wound was covered in black smoke, apparently continuously being restored.

The two Beastmen were no longer fighting each other and instead flew up to target Lin Yun.

'Damnit, this is really too troublesome…'

Before Lin Yun could react, the Black Dragon Warlord was already making his move. The black smoke behind him soared up and formed a several-hundred-meter-wide black cloud behind him.

In an instant, countless flaming meteors rushed towards Lin Yun.

Lin Yun's body suddenly burst into flames as he used Fire Elemental Incarnation. But just as Lin Yun started to take a step back, he used the Magic Array to make calculations and discovered that all the meteors were aiming at or behind him!

Over a hundred flaming meteors indiscriminately covered the entire area and completely blocked Lin Yun's retreat.

Lin Yun used Sea of Fire and flooded his surroundings with flames before using Flame Flash to quickly move towards the front.

At this time, huge Frost Spikes suddenly appeared and fell one after another.

Loud sounds echoed as the eight black Frost Spikes pierced the ground in front of him, blocking his path like a cage.

Lin Yun saw that these eight black Frost Spikes were separated by a dozen meters and unhesitantly withdrew with an ugly expression. He didn't want to rush through those gaps.

Just after Lin Yun used Flame Flash to move back twenty meters, runes appeared on those eight Frost Spikes. With those Frost Spikes as the center, everything within several dozen meters was frozen solid, and the frozen shockwave even froze the flames of that Sea of Fire.

The ordinary flames didn't even have the opportunity to be extinguished!

Cold sweat kept dripping down Lin Yun's forehead but ended up evaporating from the flames his body was emitting.

'This is the worst…

'The Black Dragon Warlord is clear-headed now. Even if he is still a bit crazy, he can distinguish between who he should be fighting…

'Duncan has been wanting to kill me for some time, and now that the Black Dragon Warlord has knocked him out of his berserk status, this is really troublesome…'

Lin Yun had turned into a Fire Elemental and had the shape of a fireball as he flew everywhere, unable to stay in one place for a second.

Although the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan were seriously injured and their strength had somewhat fallen, they were still stronger than Lin Yun. Duncan had been biding his time for over a millennium, and if it hadn't been for that huge heart holding him back, he might have already advanced to the Heaven Rank.

The Black Dragon Warlord was possessed by an evil force and his power had actually been at the Heaven Rank for a short while. Even if his understanding of Extraordinary Power was far below Gulidan's, he was able to use that fierce power to fight Gulidan to a standstill.

Were it not for his madness making him muddle-headed, Gulidan wouldn't have been able to use his Magic Tool to suppress him.

And even after being suppressed, the Black Dragon Warlord could still maintain power that couldn't be matched by those below the Heaven Rank.

The two had fought each other and had both suffered, but in the end, they could still move despite the serious injuries.

Seeing the strength displayed by the two, Lin Yun knew that although their power had decreased, they were still comparable to 9th Rank Archmages!

Moreover, with their understanding of their power, they could display even more power than 9th Rank Archmages!

The Black Dragon Warlord had lost more than half of his casting ability, but Lin Yun still couldn't resist.

The Black Dragon Warlord only cast one spell, Heavensfall Meteors, to make a large number of meteors fall from the sky like rain. That rain of meteors was like a curtain blocking Lin Yun's retreat, it simply couldn't be broken through.

Just approaching a bit would make it feel like he was being overwhelmed by the curtain of meteors.

And at the front, Duncan kept using Frost Spikes, making them appear out of nowhere. There weren't many of them, though. There were at most a dozen at a time, and they were each separated by several dozen meters.

Unfortunately, Lin Yun didn't dare to gamble that easily. Duncan's comprehension of Abyssal Ice Spells had already surpassed the Archmage realm, especially since he could condense an Absolute Freeze rune.

Because as long as Duncan was willing, no one could see if the Absolute Freeze rune was hidden within a Frost Spike.

The power of that rune was completely hidden and there was no way to find it before it burst out.

Compared to the visible danger behind him, this unseen danger was more dangerous.

Lin Yun's expression was very unsightly. If he was even slightly grazed by the Absolute Freeze, it would only take half a second for the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan to submerge him under a flood of spells.

The Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan still didn't manage to pin him down after half a minute, so they were using a pincer attack to keep blocking his surroundings.

The Black Dragon Warlord's expression twisted as he looked at Lin Yun with malice and enmity. "Damned Rat, you actually toyed with me! Lemme see what kind of trick you have now. Today, I shall teach you how useless such tricks are in front of absolute power!"

The Black Dragon Warlord loudly gritted his teeth while hovering. He had realized that he hadn't been very lucid when he was in the Dark Elven Clan, especially after fighting Gulidan, when he had thoroughly lost his mind. But he was mostly rational now, and naturally knew what had happened beforehand.

He was lured here by Lin Yun's transparent excuse and was toyed with multiple times on the way. He was even forced to fight a battle with this Ash Beastman to the point that both sides had greatly suffered and he had lost an arm and a leg.

If it hadn't been for Gulidan's aura, how could he have flown into a rage and lost his mind?

As he recalled all this, the Black Dragon Warlord wanted to butcher Lin Yun into countless pieces. He was now paying close attention. Who knew if Lin Yun had other crafty schemes? The most dependable method was to use power to crush him!

As for Duncan, who was floating in the other direction, he was gritting his teeth even more fiercely. His skeletal chin was trembling as his teeth kept colliding, creating an unpleasant grinding sound. "Damned rat, you are too crafty. You managed to run away the first time, but let's see how you plan to run this time!

"You actually dared to use me and made me pay such a huge price, so today, I shall let you experience despair!"

Black flames kept swaying gently. If he still had his body, he might have already spat out blood.

By coincidence, Duncan was also attacking slowly and steadily. He was injured and couldn't pressure him completely, so although he had a huge advantage, Ducan was afraid of the human still having some unused schemes.

Their careful and steady approach was a problem for Lin Yun.

The Night Valley's depths weren't especially wide, with the widest section stretching a few kilometers. The surroundings were made of the branches of the Wisdom Tree, so trying to dig a way out was impossible.

The Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan, one in front and one in the back, were forming a cage that was continuously shrinking. In such circumstances, unless he used absolute strength to resist, he wouldn't be able to escape with just luck.

Lin Yun frowned with a cold expression as he looked at the situation. He knew that he had no other option besides brute force.

A light shone from his Draconic Staff as the young Purple Dragon Incarnation emerged. A loud Dragon's roar echoed as a grand purple Dragon Shadow appeared behind Lin Yun.

In an instant, Lin Yun's casting ability rose to a level comparable to that of a Chromatic Dragon, and even the power of his spells increased by nearly one tier!

The Book of Death in his left hand flipped to the Element Chapter page on its own, and Lin Yun poured a large amount of mana into the book. The black ground in front quickly transformed into sand, which then formed a huge vortex that picked everything up from the ground.

A loud and powerful Dragon Roar echoed from the sand vortex and the earth started shaking. A brown Elemental Dragon seemingly made of rock drilled out of the sand vortex.

After summoning an Earth Elemental Dragon, Lin Yun immediately used a Flame Flash and rushed to the back of the Dragon.

Among Elemental lifeforms, Earth-attributed ones had the strongest defensive power, and Earth Elemental Dragons were the most powerful among them. Although they were slow and their attacks tended to be weak, Earth Elemental Dragons had a very powerful innate ability.

Earth Rampart!

This innate Earth-attributed defensive spell was known to be able to resist even spatial cracks. Lin Yun also knew that once this ability was developed to its peak, it was basically an absolute defense that could even resist a plane's collapse.

Chapter 755: Divine Power

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

After appearing on the back of the Earth Elemental Dragon, Lin Yun used Earth Elemental Incarnation and the flames disappeared in the wind, to be replaced by a four-meter-tall Rock Giant. Lin Yun rushed forward alongside the Rock Giant with the Earth Elemental Dragon.

The floor kept being turned to sand, but that didn't slow the Earth Elemental Dragon at all.

"Roar!"

The Earth Elemental Dragon opened its maw to spray out a flood of sand. The sand collided with Duncan's Frost Spikes, covering them up.

"Bang…"

A loud sound echoed as three of the Frost Spikes were shattered by the huge pressure. But a rune shone from another Frost Spike, and a black light swept out, freezing the sand within several meters.

Lin Yun seemed displeased but unsurprised.

'As expected! That guy Duncan didn't add Absolute Freeze Runes to every single Frost Spike, just a few of them. But even though I know that now, I still can't just gamble. Who knows which Frost Spikes have Absolute Freeze Runes?'

Lin Yun raised his Draconic Staff and kept using Earth spells, causing a large amount of rock to appear in the air and crash down.

Lin Yun burst out, but the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan sneered and didn't move. They didn't change their strategy at all and were still steadily trapping him.

After Lin Yun rushed over a hundred meters, the pressure in front of him suddenly grew sharply.

Five Frost Spikes exploded in front of him with one striking each second, and black ice swept over, freezing everything within several dozen meters.

Then, the black ice transformed into a ring that charged over at him.

Lin Yun was forced to stop his attacks five times in a row, and one of the Earth Elemental Dragon's front limbs had already been frozen into black ice.

As the ice shattered, the sand below surged up, and the Earth Elemental Dragon condensed the claws once again.

He was stuck again, as even his flood of spells didn't have much impact. The spells cast by the Black Dragon Warlord kept pressuring him from behind while Duncan kept freezing the front.

Even with the support of the Purple Dragon Incarnation and the Element Chapter, Lin Yun wasn't even Duncan's match when the spells collided.

He had less than two hundred meters to work with in his surroundings, and that was close to the limit. Once they trapped him within a hundred meters, Duncan and the Black Dragon Warlord would be able to go all-out attacking him directly.

At that point, they would be able to attack without care, and the spells would cover every corner of that cage. Not even an ant would be able to survive the spell bombardment.

Lin Yun would definitely end up dying!

Apart from meeting force with force, no trick, no scheme would be effective. This was how it was to be suppressed by absolute power!

150 meters…

120 meters…

His zone of control was getting smaller and smaller, and the Black Dragon Warlord was increasing the strength of his spells, while the frequency at which the meteors fell became even faster.

Lin Yun had the Earth Elemental Dragon use Earth Rampart, and a dark yellow radiance emerged from it. In an instant, a huge dome appeared over them.

A kind of heavy earth aura appeared, feeling as if it hadn't been moved for countless years. Facing the bombardment from Duncan and the Black Dragon Warlord, a faint ripple flashed on the light barrier, but it wasn't in danger of breaking for the moment.

Lin Yun had a steady expression. The bigger the crisis, the calmer he was.

This kind of terrain was really too disadvantageous for him.

Suddenly, Lin Yun saw the huge heart fly out of the abyss and an idea flashed through his mind!

He took out the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras and many clues started appearing in his mind.

The Book of Mantras had appeared in the Dark Elven prophecy…

It was also the key to control the Intrepid…

And the Dark Elves once were the subordinates of Wisdom God Constance. The Captain of the Intrepid, Red Beard, had also been Constance's subordinate…

In the end, the most important thing was the legend spreading far and wide in the future. Even in this era, many clans were secretly spreading this legend.

The most trustworthy theory behind Wisdom God Constance being the origin of all wisdom was that the Wisdom God had personally created all the spells known in the world!

When summarizing everything, he came to a very convincing conclusion!

The Book of Ten Thousand Mantras was closely linked to Wisdom God Constance! Even if the legends weren't true, these facts would still show that the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras was linked with the God of Wisdom.

And in the deepest part of the Night Valley, Constance's heart was hovering above that bottomless abyss.

When he came up with this, Lin Yun didn't have time to reflect on it, he didn't have time!

The suppressive cage was already approaching a hundred meters! The Black Dragon Warlord couldn't wait to start an all-out attack!

Lin Yun blasted mana into the ring on his left hand, making Shawn poke his head out before letting out a fearful shout and withdrawing back inside.

Lin Yun grabbed Shawn and sighed with a calm face. "There is only one opportunity. When I say it, immediately use all your power in a Soul Roar."

Shawn had a horrified expression as he said while shivering, "Merlin, Sir Merlin, you are kind… If we don't die this time, can you put me in your Demiplane?"

Lin Yun didn't answer, as his mind was already immersed in the Book of Mantras. He continued to rely on the Earth Elemental Dragon for the outer defenses. He wasn't sure how long they would last, but Lin Yun clearly understood that he wouldn't get more than twenty seconds even if the Earth Elemental Dragon went all-out.

Earth Rampart was formidable, but that Earth Elemental Dragon was only level 38, and it was facing two ruthless Half-Heaven Rank Beastmen.

Lin Yun poured a large amount of mana into the Book of Mantras, and he used the mana as a medium to try to connect to the huge heart floating over the abyss.

As more and more mana came pouring in, they faintly connected.

"Merlin, what the hell are you doing, hurry up! This Earth Rampart won't hold!" Shawn was frantically running in circles.

The cage reached the critical threshold of a hundred meters and the Black Dragon Warlord started casting while laughing his head off. Boundless flaming meteors fell towards the Earth Rampart like rain. The flames in Duncan's eyes sharply rose as he also went all-out, Frost Spikes condensing one after another in the air, all covered with flickering runes.

The formidable attacks caused cracks to appear on the Earth Rampart, and the dark yellow radiance slowly changed as it started turning into a normal stone barrier.

"Merlin!" Shawn shouted in alarm.

The Earth Rampart's power was exhausted!

At this time, a loud heartbeat echoed within the depths of the Night Valley and a transparent ripple appeared on the heart. A wisp of an extremely terrifying power appeared!

Lin Yun shouted, "Now!"

In an instant, Shawn turned into a huge Ghost Wolf and roared at the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan.

Although the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan were powerful, they were seriously injured, so when the soundwave spread, they took the full brunt of Shawn's roar and were frozen.

The spells that didn't take shape also collapsed in the air…

At Constance's heart, a wisp of power rushed forth and formed a stone gate emitting an ancient aura. When the stone gate appeared, it tore through space as if it was paper.

And as the gate opened, an Abyssal aura burst out, and the rich smell of sulfur filled the area.

"Banish!"

Lin Yun firmly held the radiating Book of Mantras and read the ancient character with clenched teeth.

In an instant, a vortex appeared within the stone gate and a strong gravitational force appeared. The surrounding space quickly caved into that gate, and the stunned Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan were completely unable to resist the pull.

The effect of the Soul Roar dissipated as the two entered the stone gate, but by that point, they were too close to resist the gravitational force. Everything within a few hundred meters was drawn in and they simply couldn't escape.

"You damned rat, you'll regret this!"

"I'll be back!"

After letting out a few parting threats, the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan disappeared as the gate closed.

That gate also disappeared.

The surroundings became peaceful, leaving only the earth full of scars behind.

Lin Yun scattered his Earth Elemental Incarnation, and the Earth Elemental Dragon also returned to the Earth Plane.

Lin Yun's complexion was very pale as he sat on the ground with no regard to his appearance. At this time, he saw light flowing from the Book of Mantras and the page he hadn't been able to turn to forcibly flipped to itself.

What he saw couldn't help but make his breathing sluggish.

That was something that could only be seen at the Heaven Rank!

At this time, Lin Yun couldn't care about anything else and only greedily took in the contents of that page. After a short time, the light scattered and the book closed on its own.

Lin Yun tried to open it again, but it was back to how it was before.After recovering some mana, Lin Yun walked to the edge of the abyss and looked at the slowly throbbing heart in silence for a long time.

The Book of Mantras really was able to connect with that huge heart, and moreover, it had successfully extracted a wisp of the heart's power.

Even if Constance had already fallen for countless years, the heart still had leftover power, and that power was Divine Power!

Chapter 756: Vortexes

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Using the mana as a medium, he was able to draw a faint wisp of power to cast the Banish spell!

The gap between ordinary summoning spells and this kind of spell was really too great. Banish forcibly tore through space and ignored Planar Paths. Someone that was banished couldn't return the same way.

And that wisp of power tore through the planes and banished the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan to the Abyss. Moreover, from the aura coming out of the Planar Gate, they should have ended up in a relatively deep area within the Abyss.

Lin Yun frowned, not looking happy at all.

If an ordinary person was banished in the depths of the Abyss, they would definitely be doomed. But Lin Yun was certain that these two wouldn't die, and moreover, they would certainly be able to escape from the Abyss.

Banishing them made the situation safe for the time being, but it would cause problems later on.

With Lin Yun connecting to the heart and using a wisp of its power to cast that spell, it was inevitable that it would leave an imprint behind. And that imprint had definitely been sensed by the Black Dragon Warlord and Duncan… especially Duncan. He had been connected to that heart for over a millennium. Although the connection had been severed, he would still have more of a reaction than others.

The two had lost their restraints, and they might become even more powerful in the Abyss, considering their Abyssal bloodlines. They would be able to follow that imprint to slowly make their way back.

They would definitely be able to chase him back to Noscent, so they would inevitably cross paths again, as they weren't the sort to leave things like this unsettled. By that point, they would both possess Extraordinary Power.

Lin Yun sighed. There would be some problems later, but fortunately, they had been banished into a relatively deep part of the Abyss. The Abyssal lifeforms there were definitely very powerful and rushing out of the Abyss wouldn't be that easy…

Just as Lin Yun left the Night Valley through Teleportation Array, he was startled as he glanced at the Dark Elven Clan.

He could feel three formidable auras within the Dark Elven Clan quickly weakening. Even from so far away, he had a reaction.

Lin Yun frowned a bit and promptly used Flight to fly towards the Dark Elven Clan.

These three auras belonged to Jiali, Gulidan, and Harris.

'Did something unexpected happen?'

As he thought of this, Lin Yun hurried over, flying at an extreme speed towards the Dark Elven Clan. When he arrived, he discovered that the Dark Elves hadn't perished and the mind-controlled invaders had already disappeared. Ash Beastmen and Dark Elves could be seen cleaning up the battlefield.

And it looked like these Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen weren't hostile. They were only silently sweeping through the battlefield and gathering the corpses together, all of them looking unhappy.

About half of the Dark Elven Clan was destroyed, and the outskirts had been completely wiped out. The buildings had turned into ruins, and only ashes remained from the Ancient War Trees.

These people remained silent when they saw that Lin Yun came back and let him rush inside.

"Merlin, you came…" The 2nd Elder walked over with a heavy expression.

Lin Yun followed the 2nd Elder deeper into the Dark Elven Clan when he suddenly saw the central area that hadn't been affected by the chaos of the battles. To his surprise, the vegetation within a wide area was decaying.

As he went further and further inside, the decaying vegetation became more and more withered, until all that was left were rotten ashes.

The aura of death and decay spread through the air, feeling like an omen of the apocalypse.

Lin Yun frowned as he approached a stone house. He noticed that all the buildings and vegetation beside that stone house had turned to ashes. Even stones seemed to be eroding at a rapid pace.

Jiali, Gulidan, and Harris were in the courtyard at the center of that stone house. They were sitting on the ground, and that terrifying aura was spreading from their bodies.

The faces of the three Heaven Rank powerhouses were ashen, and there was no vitality coming from their bodies. From twenty meters away, Lin Yun could feel the decaying aura corroding his own mana and vitality.

It felt a lot better after using a Mana Shield, but the Mana Shield was consuming mana four to five times faster than usual.

Lin Yun frowned, shock filling his eyes. With one glance he could see that the three Heaven Rank powerhouses were dying. Their lives were already dissipating, and they were now holding on only with the power of the Heaven Rank.

Strictly speaking, these three were already dead!

"How could it be? Who in the God Nation can kill the three of you?"

How could Lin Yun not be shocked? How could Heaven Rank powerhouses die so fast!?

Facing Lin Yun's inquiries, Jiali, Gulidan, and Harris bitterly smiled, but none of them answered the question.

"Could there still be someone stronger than you in the God Nation? Someone capable of killing you?"

Suddenly, Lin Yun felt something in his heart, and before Jiali even answered, he asked with an extremely grave expression, "Is it him?"

Jiali remained silent and Gulidan's expression seemed complicated, while Harris lowered his head with a bitter smile.

After some time, Jiali slowly nodded.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yun didn't know what to say.

Jiali raised his head and looked directly at Lin Yun. Without a wisp of despair in his voice, he said, "Mafa Merlin, the three of us cooperated to open the passage for you. You can go there at any time, but our fall isn't something anyone could prevent or halt. Death isn't something we are worrying about. Our only worry is about the future of our races.

"The three great races have experienced countless hardships in the past few years. Being able to survive till today wasn't very easy. For the three of us to die at the same time, this is a huge blow to our three races. Normally, after such a catastrophe, the three races would no longer have a leader, leaving their future in doubt.

"Fortunately, you came. I consulted with Gulidan and Harris, and we hope that the clansmen of the three great races can be entrusted to you. I hope you can look after them in the future and ensure that the names of the Dark Elves, Ash Beastmen, and Firerock Dwarves don't just become history.

Lin Yun hadn't expected Jiali to speak such words.

On the side, the Dark Elves' 2nd Elder and the Ash Beastmen's Flame Dragon Warlord were both greatly alarmed.

"Great Elder, how could this be, this can't be possible! You can't die!"

"Tribal Chief, this isn't true!? Surely this can't be real?"

The 2nd Elder and the Flame Dragon Warlord were endlessly shocked, unable to accept it for a while.

Jiali's expression turned serious as he looked at the 2nd Elder. It looked devoid of sadness or happiness, but the aura of death could be seen getting stronger and stronger. "My life has already disappeared. Falling is a foregone conclusion that no one can stop. Moreover, I just saw through the fog of time and glimpsed at a bit of our future. I saw the Dark Elves following Mafa Merlin and standing at the peak of Noscent, making the name of the Dark Elves resurface in that world.

"I believe that Gulidan and Harris should have seen the same."

Gulidan had a solemn expression as he looked at the Flame Dragon Warlord. "Jiali is right. I'm reaching my limits, so I used my life and power to see through the fog of time and saw the same thing. The Ash Beastmen will be Merlin's followers and return to Noscent's summit. I hope you can all follow behind him in the future, and I hope that the Ash Beastmen's loyalty and blood will never waver."

Harris took out a communication Magic Tool and said the same thing. His words were sent back to the Firerock Dwarven Clan.

Jiali, Gulidan, and Harris looked at Lin Yun. Their faces covered with the aura of death were filled with imploring expressions.

Lin Yun gloomily sighed before nodding.

"Alright, I shall agree to lead them out of the God Nation."

When Lin Yun agreed, a hint of a smile appeared on Jiali's face.

In an instant, the three of them surged with terrifying power… Extraordinary Power.

Spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared as visible ripples could be seen spreading. Lin Yun, the 2nd Elder, and the Flame Dragon Warlord were all pushed and sent flying towards the back.

After they were sent flying over a kilometer away, that power became extremely weak.

In the distance, the three were filled with death aura, which covered them completely. The Extraordinary Power burst out from their bodies and turned into a flood.

A seven-colored flood surged above Jiali's head, containing all his mana mixed with runes.

A crimson flood appeared above Gulidan's head. That flood was full of berserk power that surged from within his blood. The power from his bloodline also started following that flood to spray out.

And for Harris, a burning hot aura spurted from above his head. One after another, tendrils of lightning curled around the flood of red mana and surged towards the horizon.

The three floods of mana containing extreme power rushed towards the sky and turned into three huge inverted vortexes.

A seven-colored vortex, a crimson vortex, and a red vortex filled with lightning.

This was the mightiest surge of power in their entire lives. With that formidable power, their lives dissipated, but the three didn't immediately die.

Chapter 757: Path of Radiance

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Now that they were submerged in death aura, their consciousness had already started dissipating and they were no longer able to control that formidable power, causing it to release all at once.

In the sky, fierce clouds converged over several kilometers, and when all the power below had spurted out, the three vortexes instantly transformed into a shockwave sweeping the sky. They simply couldn't see how far that shockwave spread.

The terrifying aura of death spread around the three Heaven Rank powerhouses' bodies. The thick aura of death transformed into a black, ashen cloud that surrounded the place.

Everything within a kilometer was reduced to ashes. The vegetation, the buildings, and even stones… Everything was shattered in a split second, as if they were dying together.

Then, all the clouds started collapsing towards the center before disappearing, along with the corpses of the three Heaven Rank powerhouses.

In the sky, a faint ray of light scattered into a rain of light that slowly dispersed. Everywhere it touched, vegetation drilled out of the ground and instantly turned into high trees reaching the sky.

Several kilometers of deathly stillness quickly regained its vitality due to that rain of light, and a dozen Ancient War Trees' saplings quickly grew after being doused. From being less than a meter tall, they quickly reached as far as a hundred meters up.

As for the Dark Elves riddled with scars, their injuries slowly recovered after bathing in that light. Even some with damaged limbs or other serious injuries quickly recovered.

The only traces of what had happened were where the three Heaven Rank powerhouses had been. That place was still filled with death aura and no vitality.

"No…"

The 2nd Elder knelt on the ground in despair.

In the Dark Elven Clan, regardless of what they were doing, all Dark Elves knelt and let out mournful howls, even those on their deathbeds. Those who had just recovered from their injuries didn't feel happy, they were all wailing from grief.

"Great Elder… Aaahh!"

"Oh, how could it be like that, impossible! This must be fake…"

On the other side, the Flame Dragon Warlord's eyes turned red as he slowly knelt on one knee and made a fist before fiercely thumping it against his chest. "Tribal Chief, I shall vow on the honor of the Ash Beastmen. As long as I'm alive, I definitely won't let the Ash Beastmen decline."

In the distance, the Ash Beastmen got off their mounts and took off their helmets before kneeling on one knee with a sorrowful aura.

After some time, the Flame Dragon Warlord stood up and let out a loud roar: "The blood of Ash Beastmen shall never stop burning!"

The Ash Beastman army all stood up and they each made a fist with their right hand before ruthlessly hammering their own chest and shouting towards the domed sky, "The blood of Ash Beastmen shall never stop burning!"

As for the Firerock Dwarves, they had the least amount of people there, but a few of Harris' trusted aides were present and weeping miserably.

"Clan Head, rest assured, I'll experiment with all the materials you never got to use!"

"Clan Head, I swear on my family name that I will definitely make the skill of the Firerock Dwarves resound throughout Noscent."The entire place was filled with sorrow, and even the wails of the Wyverns and the Hippogryphs kept echoing throughout the Dark Elven Clan.

Lin Yun stood there in a daze and looked at the place where the three Heaven Rank powerhouses fell, before slowly bowing.

"Worthy of admiration."

They obviously managed to de-escalate the situation, but they also still thought of their races' inheritance and future, so they used their power to force themselves to stay.

After death, they also brought out their most powerful burst of energy to complete their last task as leaders.

They turned their flesh and power into a rain of light that gave the races the opportunity to recover, allowing the wounded to return to normal.

They were worthy of respect, worthy of their clansmen's love, support, and admiration.

The sorrow and sadness continued, but the 2nd Elder and the Flame Dragon Warlord forcibly roused their spirits and went to pay respects to Lin Yun.

"Master."

"Master."

Lin Yun sighed and waved his arm. "Appease your clansmen for now, we can talk about the rest later."

After the 2nd Elder and the Flame Dragon Warlord left, they immediately announced the final wishes of their respective leaders and didn't leave out anything.

Soon, the Flame Dragon Warlord and the 2nd Elder led their clansmen to pay respects.

"Paying respects to Master…"

"Paying respects to Master…"

As the tsunami of shouts echoed, Lin Yun waved his hand again.

After losing a leader, nothing felt more stable than having a leader that could lead them further.

The 2nd Elder and the Flame Dragon Warlord arranged their own clansmen, so Lin Yun didn't have to trouble over these matters.

The next day, the 2nd Elder came for a formal visit.

"Master, what is your next instruction?"

"Can you open that path now?"

"As you wish, Master. Please follow me."

The 2nd Elder led Lin Yun to the center of the Dark Elven Clan to its foundation, the Tree of Life!

The tall Tree of Life projected its radiance all around. That was mana that had been processed by the Tree of Life, pure mana that all Dark Elves could directly absorb.

Lin Yun looked at the Tree of Life in silence.

The entrance of that passage was in the Tree of Life, and in order to open the passage, they needed the power of the Tree of Life. This was why the passage would no longer be able to open once the Dark Elven Clan was destroyed.

The 2nd Elder stood in front of the Tree of Life and chanted a cryptic incantation. After a short moment, an entrance appeared on the Tree of Life, over two meters in height and over a meter wide, and endless radiance burst from within.

Lin Yun didn't hesitate and started walking towards the light until he disappeared.

When he stepped into the light, all he could see was a world of light. His surroundings seemed boundlessly empty, only a vast expanse of white.

That light wasn't dazzling. He could easily see very far within this world, but he simply couldn't see any edge. Under his feet was a radiant path emitting multicolored light, extending far into the distance.

Lin Yun's expression didn't change. He held the Book of Mantras in his left hand and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel in his right hand while looking at this radiant path without blinking.

There was no sound as he walked along that path. The entire world seemed to be deathly silent, and after some time, he could see neither the start of the path behind him nor an end to the path in front.

There was only endless light in this place, no sound, no landmarks. As he kept walking, even time seemed to have lost its meaning.

Anyone would feel that time had been greatly slowed. The further he walked, the slower time seemed to pass, as if the world had already abandoned him.

This would inevitably give rise to a feeling of restlessness, and that feeling would seep deeper and deeper, just like a poison slowly infecting someone's mind until they became crazy. In the end, that craziness could end up as a kind of fear etched into one's soul.

It was as silent as eternal death, with no change in the environment. This was something most lifeforms were terrified of. Any clear-headed person wouldn't be able to remain in that place, and even one day would feel like years.

But Lin Yun's eyes were just as calm as before, like a pond of standing water. His eyes were firmly watching the radiant path, completely ignoring his surroundings.

Lin Yun understood that the test had already begun since he first stepped onto this path.

Why was no one able to get Constance's skull even though it had been placed at the top of the Wisdom Tree for so long?

It wasn't that no one was interested, but rather that they couldn't see Constance's skull at all.

Wisdom God Constance was known as the source of all wisdom. To be more exact, Constance's skull was the origin of all wisdom, and there was also a sentence that had been spread since time immemorial.

The origin of all wisdom is also the limit of all wisdom.

The origin was also the limit. Here, Lin Yun would display perfect performance, because he knew that in this path, what people could see and feel was only a show, they would never be able to walk to Constance's skull.

Lin Yun remembered that in human kingdoms, there was a punishment most feared by the people, the small black room.

There, they wouldn't be beaten up or anything like that… They would only be locked in a small black room that was devoid of all sound and light. Anyone who was conscious wouldn't be able to remain inside for long. Even an army veteran might already go crazy after three days.

And now, this entire world was a boundless version of that small black room. Whether it was mana or perception, even in his direct line of sight, everything looked exactly the same and never showed any sign of change.

Lin Yun clearly knew that he would fail if he showed the slightest hint of uneasiness, and then, he would never be able to leave that place.

Thus, Lin Yun firmly watched the path of radiance and focused all his attention there.

Time slowly passed. Lin Yun seemed to have forgotten about time, and there was only one thought in his mind that kept him going.

'Keep walking, be steady, you might see Constance's skull at any moment.'

Chapter 758: Giant

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The origin of all wisdom and the limit of all wisdom, a complete equilibrium that was equivalent to a small sealed world in which only wisdom could answer… It was the only method to strengthen one's own wisdom and beliefs.

There were no landmarks, no time, no sound, and even the air seemed to be gone. Slowly, Lin Yun became paler and paler. From a youth, he turned into a middle-aged man, his robe becoming worn out from the passage of time.

Even after an unknown amount of time, Lin Yun's footsteps had yet to stop. His hair had turned white and he looked quite old, his body stooped over.

The only constant was the staunch belief in his muddy eyes.

The power of wisdom… What was the power of wisdom? That wasn't a simple spell. It also wasn't alchemy. Rather, it was a kind of mystery piercing through one's soul.

Just as Lin Yun's clothing was completely shattered, his skin became full of old wrinkles and he was about to drop the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and the Book of Mantras. His footsteps became even more arduous and the aura of life was about to thoroughly dissipate, when a wisp of a different aura suddenly appeared in those muddy eyes… The staunch belief fused with a wisp of wisdom.

From life to death, all the wisdom was comprehended by Lin Yun. All the knowledge converged together and turned into an indescribable transformation. It was the kind that could only be felt and not explained.

Wisdom!

In an instant, the endless radiant path changed. The perfectly straight path twisted and turned into a continuously looping circle.

At the center of the circle was a ball of light that seemed to hold all of the world's wisdom.

Lin Yun's muddy eyes became bright, his stooped body became straight once again, and he regained his youth. There was no longer any trace of his aged appearance, as even his robe had recovered.

As Lin Yun looked at the ball of light a drop of cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

'So close! Had I not known beforehand, I might not have been able to follow that radiant path. Without absolute resolve, no one could see the Wisdom God's skull.'

After some time, Lin Yun's stupefied expression slowly recovered. Just now, it looked like decades and centuries had passed. Strictly speaking, it might have only been a day or two.

If he hadn't walked that path from beginning to end, he would basically have been stuck in this plane with no chance of ever getting out.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but Lin Yun felt that he had recovered to his peak. In fact, because of that endless path of light, his mind and soul seemed to have settled down, helping him reach an unprecedented state of enlightenment. He'd only need one thought to step into the Archmage realm.

Lin Yun took a deep breath and walked towards that ball of light with endless colors. With each step, the ball of light became bigger and bigger, and by the time he appeared in front of it, the light already spanned several kilometers.

Lin Yun didn't hesitate and directly stepped into the ball of light.

In an instant, the surroundings turned into a boundless void, and the endless profound runes within the void looked like stars.

As Lin Yun walked to this point, an uncountable number of runes seemed to have turned insane and crazily poured into Lin Yun's body.

A terrifying galaxy of runes spanning through the entire void violently rushed into Lin Yun's head.

Lin Yun instantly became pale, his expression distorting from pain.

This was the fusion of the knowledge, ideas, and power remaining within Constance's skull.

Sweat was dripping down Lin Yun's forehead and his body was soaked as if it had been raining.

It was extremely troublesome… He hadn't expected the remnants of thoughts left behind in Constance's skull to be so formidable.

Lin Yun instantly lost control over his body and his consciousness turned inward.

There was an endless space within his consciousness. And in front of Lin Yun, a giant that was over ten kilometers tall suddenly appeared, seemingly made of the convergence of endless runes. Lin Yun stood under his feet but couldn't see his face even by looking up.

The giant took one step, and the boundless space started crumbling. The space itself seemed unable to bear the power behind that giant's step.

Lin Yun already felt out of breath from the pressure. The space behind the giant already crumbled, and the other half was still in the process of crumbling.

Lin Yun knew that this was Constance's skull trying to occupy his body and crush his soul. This was the power left behind by Constance, the power of a God!

Even a tiny amount, small to the point of being almost invisible, would turn out to be a ten-kilometer-tall giant in his consciousness, while Lin Yun himself was very small.

Lin Yun didn't show the slightest change in expression as he looked at the giant and extended a finger.

He no longer had any choice. He either had to defeat this giant made of runes, or his soul would be crushed and his body would be occupied by Constance's skull.

A simple Fireball appeared in front of Lin Yun's finger and flew at the giant.

"Boom!"

A clear sound echoed, just like a small firecracker exploding. The Fireball explosion only blew up one of the runes on the giant.

And this seemed to have thoroughly offended that giant. In an instant, the giant raised his arm, and the boundless runes in his body surged forth, making the space shake.

Slowly, over five kilometers of space cracked like a mirror, putting more pressure on Lin Yun.

Lin Yun smiled as he suddenly faced the collapse of that entire world.

"This is my consciousness, I am the ruler."

Countless sounds came from Lin Yun's mouth, and each of them became tangible as they flew out. In an instant, the space in front of Lin Yun seemed to have been severed by a sharp blade.

Lin Yun's location was an area of three meters that had been forcibly cut off!

But that area managed to withstand the entire spatial collapse. The giant angrily roared as he shrank the entire shattered world towards himself, apparently intending to use collapse the world to constrict Lin Yun to death.

Lin Yun was pale, but his eyes were shining brightly.

This was his consciousness. Although even the remnants of a God's power would be too much for Lin Yun to resist, he was the ruler of this space. This area of three meters that he'd carved out was his final resolve, his final belief, the fusion of his wisdom and consciousness.

As long as he didn't give up, Constance's skull wouldn't be able to crush him to death for a while.

"Here, as long as I have the understanding and knowledge, I can fully use spells I don't normally have the power to cast. Here, as long as I understand the secrets of a God, I am this place's God!" Lin Yun's eyes shone.

This space of three meters was in imminent crisis and kept shaking as if it was about to be shattered anytime.

Lin Yun extended his hand and sent a ruthless slash towards that crazily attacking giant. In an instant, a jet-black crack appeared within the shattered space and the void.

A several-hundred-meter-wide Space Rending Blade appeared!

The Space Rending Blade cut everything in its way. Even the shattered space was forcibly sliced apart… Nothing could resist it.

Everything here was part of Lin Yun's consciousness, so he could change everything about it with one thought as long as he had enough willpower.

That shattered void was only the part that the huge giant had managed to forcibly snatch. How could it stop Lin Yun, the true ruler of this place?

The pitch-black Space Rending Blade ruthlessly cut off the giant's fingertip, and the moment it was severed, the fingertip fell apart, turning into a flood of runes with no time to reattach to the giant.

Enormous pitch-black hands appeared in the shattered space and ignored it as they ferociously grabbed at the flood of runes.

As the runes merged with Lin Yun's three-meter-wide space, knowledge and countless secrets flowed into Lin Yun's mind.

His isolated piece of space rapidly grew to take up several hundred meters, and the space originally tottering on the brink of destruction had become a lot steadier.

The giant angrily shouted as his fingertip was reforming, but his body was a meter smaller now.

This time, the giant gave up on using the shattered space to deal with Lin Yun. Boundless runes converged within his huge palm and transformed into a sun-like ball. Its blazing light turned into a beam that ruthlessly shot towards the space Lin Yun controlled.

In an instant, the space under Lin Yun's control shook, and small spatial cracks kept appearing as if that space was about to collapse.

Lin Yun frowned a bit and a sound came out of his mouth. This was a character from the Book of Death and was the one used to stabilize Planar Paths.

All the spatial cracks disappeared as that rune appeared above Lin Yun's head. That could be classified as Extraordinary Power!

Within Lin Yun's consciousness, as long as Lin Yun fully understood it, any power could be used.

With the appearance of that rune, his control over that space thoroughly stabilized, and the giant's frantic bombardment was completely ineffective.

The giant controlled the endless space, but he couldn't control the last few hundred meters.

Now that he had enough defenses, Lin Yun's eyes turned cold.

Chapter 759: Master of the Three Races

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The Book of Mantras emerged out of nowhere on his left, its pages automatically turning as endless incantations flowed on the pages.

On his right, the slowly rotating Ten Thousand Spell Wheel appeared and countless runes kept combining into all kinds of spells.

In an instant, Lin Yun quickly chanted incantations and numerous spells converged together to transform into a terrifying flood. The power of all the spells was infinitely great in this place.

A Fireball would be over a kilometer in size, while a Frost Spike would also be over a kilometer in length, all with the power to match. The spells mixed together into a giant flood, spreading over tens of kilometers and ruthlessly washing over the giant.

The entire shattered space started collapsing towards the giant, keeping that flood out.

The collision between the fragments of space and the terrifying spell flood caused a frightening shockwave to spread. The giant waved his arms, causing runes to surge forth and release terrifying spells to counterattack with an even larger flood of spells.

He used at least 9th Tier Spells and 10th Tier Spells, but they were resisted by Lin Yun's absurdly enlarged Low Tier Spells.

In fact, Lin Yun's flood of Low Tier Spells was like a sharp blade that pierced through the giant's spell flood that spread for over a hundred kilometers.

The giant's spells submerged the space controlled by Lin Yun, causing it to constantly shake and sway, but it persevered and didn't shatter.

Lin Yun's spell flood carried on and ruthlessly cut down the giant's arm, causing runes to hemorrhage out before being immediately caught by Lin Yun.

After a few seconds, the giant arm was thoroughly severed and the several-kilometer-long arm crumbled and turned into a cloud of runes.

During that time, the giant couldn't bother with attacking Lin Yun; he instantly started scrabbling over the runic cloud trying to recover, but several hundred large Mana Hands appeared and were ruthlessly grabbing at that runic cloud.

Many runes were caught by Lin Yun, and he fused them to the space under his control. That space rapidly expanded, over a kilometer, over ten kilometers, hundred kilometers,…

Apart from the part Lin Yun had stolen, the giant managed to recover the rest of the runic cloud, and by the time the giant's arm grew back, his body was about nine kilometers tall.

The tug of war started. The space controlled by Lin Yun had reached a hundred kilometers and was quickly stabilizing. It would remain steadfast when facing the giant's magic attacks.

As they continued to fight, the giant's height decreased further and further while the space that Lin Yun controlled slowly increased. In the end, the giant's height was only a bit over a kilometer, while Lin Yun controlled over half of the space.

At this time, the giant knew that if he kept at it, he would be slowly ground to death by Lin Yun. That kilometer-tall body suddenly collapsed and transformed into a flood of runes. A strand of power exploded and dyed all the runes golden.

In an instant, that flood of golden runes charged towards the space Lin Yun controlled.

"Rumble…"

The flood of golden runes was easily piercing through the space Lin Yun controlled as it rushed towards him. The stable spatial rune above Lin Yun's head couldn't completely hold them away.

At this time, several kinds of shields appeared and firmly obstructed that flood of golden runes, but they ended up shattering. Even more shields appeared out of nowhere, but the golden runes were still charging towards Lin Yun.

Lin Yun furrowed his brow. He knew that this was the last attack and that he would win as long as he could block it, causing the remnant thoughts of Constance to truly dissipate… But if he couldn't hold on, his soul would thoroughly disappear.

This time, Lin Yun's casting ability was pushed to his limits. Any spell he had an understanding of appeared, but they were only able to slow down the speed of the flood of golden runes.

If this continued, the golden runes would wash over him and his soul would be shredded.

Gritting his teeth, Lin Yun divided and shared a part of his experience to slow down the surge ahead of him before starting to cast towards the sides of the golden flood.

Huge palms fiercely swatted at the sides of the golden flood and shook it, but it didn't have too much impact.

As the flood had breached over half of the distance and the danger was looming ever closer, the attacks on the side finally showed some effect.

A few golden runes flickered and their golden light dissipated before they shot out of the flood.

Those few runes were like a grain of sand on a beach compared to the rest of the flood, but it made Lin Yun's eyes shine with pleasant surprise.

Immediately, Lin Yun increased the intensity of his attacks, and a large number of runes started bursting out of that golden flood. Lin Yun caught those to turn them into his own strength.

As more and more runes were caught by Lin Yun, the space he controlled kept increasing and stabilizing, restricting the golden flood more and more.

Lin Yun switched from using most of his power to defend, to using only powerful attacks.

As the tables turned, when the golden flood was within a few hundred meters from Lin Yun, it finally exploded and he caught all the rest of the runes.

In an instant, Lin Yun's control over the space rapidly expanded, and the collapsing chaotic space quickly calmed down and returned under Lin Yun's control.

The huge light in the outside world quickly contracted and thoroughly merged with Lin Yun's body as his consciousness returned.

At that moment, the Book of Mantras and the Spell Wheel were floating at Lin Yun's sides while Lin Yun's Core Meditation Law Sets were flickering within. The Void Forge and the Elemental Heart thoroughly fused with the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.

Countless runes surged forth, and when all of these things fused together, they were no longer distinguishable from one another, they were no longer divided into Magic Tools and Meditation Law Sets.

And Lin Yun's aura also kept rising, becoming stronger and stronger, more and more profound.

The Magic Array within him turned into a huge wheel behind his body, and the countless parts forming that huge wheel were like many complicated astrolabes which would make anyone dizzy just by looking at them.

The Equilibrium Law surged from the Magic Array, and all the formulas of the Core Meditation Law Set and the runes started thoroughly fusing with the Magic Array. It didn't take long before the shadow of the Equilibrium Law could no longer be seen, and the Magic Array also started changing shape.

The Magic Array transformed into a huge disk with Lin Yun sitting in its center. Rays of light surged forth and formed a simple, yet deep set of scales 1 made of light.

Countless runes flew out of the Book of Mantras and transformed into a huge smelting furnace on the left side of the scales, and the furnace seemed to be holding an endless void inside. The Book of Mantras floated within the furnace and its endless power was devoured and transformed by that furnace into endless mana, which entered Lin Yun's body through the light scales.

On the other side of the light scales, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel let out an endless stream of runes and light as it transformed into a core that seemed to contain all colors. All elemental powers were blossoming from that light core and a large amount of power poured into the scales of light and inundated Lin Yun's body.

As time passed, Lin Yun's aura became more and more powerful, until finally, the Void Forge, the core of light containing endless elemental power, and even the light scales… all collapsed.

The huge disk Lin Yun had been sitting on instantly collapsed and his body was only left with endless light and runes rapidly revolving around him. Ultimately, all of it converged together and turned into throbbing runic light that merged with Lin Yun.

In an instant, Lin Yun's aura burst out. It was powerful, but it also carried a strange pressure. His robe was swaying madly and his hair was also twitching and letting sounds like the crack of a whip.

Lin Yun closed his eyes and his body started floating up as profound and indescribable symbols kept appearing. The Book of Mantras and the Spell Wheel were like stars orbiting around him.

After a while, Lin Yun opened his eyes and his body slowly landed on the ground. His aura had stabilized completely at the 1st Rank of the Archmage realm.

The Book of Mantras and the Spell Wheel floating around him felt like his own arms and were easy to control.

The last piece of the puzzle he needed at the High Mage realm was complete, and he was finally able to perfectly advance to the Archmage realm!

Particularly when the core formed, Lin Yun couldn't help smiling.

The endless light around him had faded, but the radiant path was still there. As Lin Yun took a step onto that path, a resplendent door appeared in front of him.

When he went through it, the Dark Elven Clan appeared before him. He looked back and saw the door on the Tree of Life slowly closing.

The Dark Elves and Ash Beasmen's higher-ups were already waiting in front of the Tree of Life, and seeing Lin Yun, they all kneeled:

"Greeting Master…"

"Greeting Master…"

The Dark Elves were headed by the 2nd Elder, and behind him were numerous kneeling Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen.

There was no problem with the Dark Elves' allegiance. From the beginning, Lin Yun had already done so many favors for them, allowing them to avoid being exterminated, and even the Great Elder, after becoming a Heaven Rank powerhouse, had begged him to accept the Dark Elves.

Chapter 760: Acquaintances

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

With the 2nd Elder and Elsa, who had awakened her sky bloodline, at their head, the higher-ups had no objections, while the ordinary Dark Elves had even less reason to complain. If not for Lin Yun, the Dark Elven Clan would have already become extinct.

And there was no major problem with the Ash Beastmen. Their Tribal Chief had issued his command, and of the three Dragon Warlords, one had been crippled, one went insane, and the remaining one, the Flame Dragon Warlord, had already come to know how powerful Lin Yun was. And he could see that Lin Yun's aura had greatly increased after coming out of the Tree of Life.

Given how the Ash Beastmen respected the strong, the higher-ups of the Ash Beastmen had no objections, and it was the same for the ordinary Ash Beastmen. The most important person, the tribe's prophet, was also firmly supporting Gulidan's aspirations.

After having accepted the Dark Elves, Lin Yun solemnly accepted the allegiance of the Ash Beastmen. Once that was done, he summoned the 2nd Elder.

"The Firerock Dwarves don't wish to swear allegiance?" Lin Yun frowned a bit.

To be honest, if it hadn't been for the actions of the three admirable Heaven Rank powerhouses, he wouldn't have bothered with the three races. They hadn't been good races in the past, and he didn't know what kind of problems they might cause if they were rashly brought to Noscent.

Especially after seeing the power of the Heaven Ranks, Lin Yun was a lot more cautious. Having strength was fundamental.

Now, if the Firerock Dwarves weren't willing to swear allegiance, should he still force them to be loyal?

But if he ignored them, wouldn't it go against his promise?

The 2nd Elder saw Lin Yun frown and couldn't help being startled. He had gained a good understanding of Lin Yun during the small amount of time they had interacted with each other.

Sensing that Lin Yun had already become a 1st Rank Archmage, as well as the deep and mysterious aura that wasn't something a 1st Rank Archmage could possess, the 2nd Elder became somewhat worried. He couldn't let any trouble happen.

"Master, it's not like that, it's not that the Firerock Dwarves are unwilling to swear allegiance. It's just that the Firerock Dwarves have yet to send someone over. Even the Firerock Dwarves that had gone to the Dark Elven Clan have yet to return. I don't know what happened, but should we send someone to check?"

Lin Yun was still frowning as he considered this information. 'Could it be that the Firerock Dwarven Clan encountered some problem? Considering he was the Clan Head and the only Heaven Rank powerhouse within the Firerock Dwarves, how could they not react to Harris' fall?

Just as Lin Yun was thinking whether or not he should go check, a Dark Elf suddenly came over from outside.

"Reporting to Master, 2nd Elder. A group of Firerock Dwarves has come!"

The 2nd Elder promptly asked, "Where are they?"

"They are waiting in front of the public square."

"Lead us there."

Lin Yun followed the 2nd Elder to the front of the Dark Elven Clan and immediately looked around the square. Over a thousand Firerock Dwarves forming an army were waiting there, and there was also a person on his own.

Lin Yun couldn't help being amazed when he saw that person.

A pitch-black robe with the symbol of the Black Tower… It was Weiss, who had been missing for a long time.

When Lin Yun saw Weiss, he immediately recalled Zeuss' words: Arthus had a hint of Constance's bloodline, and after his death, the Watson Family had no way of entering the God Nation.

The Black Tower also had someone with that bloodline that could open the door to Constance's God Nation. But he hadn't expected that at some point since the battle with the Orachiss, the Black Tower's side that had been separated from everyone else had already entered the God Nation.

Moreover, it looked like the Black Tower's people already had a firm foothold within the Firerock Dwarven Clan, and Weiss' aura seemed even stronger. He was now already a Peak 8th Rank Archmage, and from looking at his aura that kept rampaging, it looked like he couldn't stabilize it and would soon reach the 9th Rank.

Weiss stood in the center of the square with one hand at his back, looking very prideful, but when he saw Lin Yun at the front and the Dark Elves behind him, his face was suddenly filled with shock. Then, all sorts of feelings could be seen flickering across his face.

"Good day, Sir Weiss."

Lin Yun slightly bent down to greet as a mage.

It looked like Weiss was lamenting as he slightly bowed in response. "Good Day, Sir Merlin. I hadn't expected that after not seeing you for so long, you would have already advanced to the Archmage realm. Your talents are truly making me envious."

Lin Yun glanced at the Firerock Dwarves standing some distance away before looking back at Weiss.

"Sir Weiss, have you received the words of the Firerock Dwarves' Clan Head? Are you representing the Firerock Dwarves in negotiation?"

Weiss' expression became complicated as he glanced at Lin Yun. After a while, he sighed, "Sir Merlin, you have a good friendship with our Black Tower, and I really don't want to see a crack forming. This time, I can only advise you to give up, okay?"

Lin Yun indifferently shook his head. "Sir Weiss, you should know that I already made a promise to the Firerock Dwarves' Clan Head, Harris, that I would lead the Dwarves back to Noscent. I promised to take care of them."

Weiss bitterly smiled and shook his head.

"Merlin, I know you are very powerful. When you had yet to break through the Archmage realm, you were already shocking us. As an individual, I'm very unwilling to become your enemy, and I also don't want a crack to appear in the friendship between you and the Black Tower.

"But there are many things you don't know. Many things have happened since we lost contact, too many things. Everything that happened in the twenty years prior can't add up to what happened in the past few days.

"To tell you the truth, we already reached the God Nation a while back and are controlling the Firerock Dwarven Clan, so we can't just let go of it. But as a person, I don't want to become your enemy.

"Moreover, you should see that I'm close to breaking through to the 9th Rank of the Archmage realm, but I'm the weakest of our group. I came for negotiations this time out of my own initiative.

"Pointless sacrifices and conflicts have no meaning. Thus, I ask you, please give up. Don't get involved with the Fire Rock Dwarves' matters."

Weiss looked at Lin Yun with very complicated feelings.

'In a few months, he already broke through the Archmage realm, and his aura is steady and profound, carrying terrifying mysteries. I really don't want to antagonize him. Unfortunately, this matter is too big. Everyone's strength transformed and progressed even more than his, so we simply can't compromise with him.

'Ever since we got split up, we unexpectedly found the closest path, and after entering the God Nation, we immediately met with the Firerock Dwarves. Sir Falton managed to gain the friendship of the Firerock Dwarves' Clan Head, and everything started from that point on.

'We helped the Firerock Dwarves excavate some ruins and a huge transformation happened. Everyone's strength quickly improved, and Sir Falton even reached the 9th Rank of the Archmage realm, more or less comparable with the Chairman of the Black Tower, Harren, who had one foot in the Heaven realm.

'Moreover, after leaving that place, Sir Falton became more and more frightening. His character is going through a complete transformation and he is still behind closed doors. If he learns about this matter, this might all become extremely troublesome…

'Sir Falton would definitely kill Merlin without any misgivings…'

Weiss had a sincere expression. As a member of the Black Tower, defending the Black Tower's benefits was most important, but knowing Lin Yun, he really didn't want to have him as an enemy. He had been trying to build up a friendship with Lin Yun for a while and had avoided hostilities. To him, Lin Yun was like an abyss that couldn't be analyzed. When counting the lessons he had been taught all along, if he could resolve this peacefully, he would.

Hearing Weiss' words, Lin Yun faintly frowned. He could naturally feel that Weiss' strength had greatly increased, but he wasn't expecting that Weiss would be the weakest one.

"Sir Weiss, thank you for your good intentions, but I already gave my promise to Harris, so I have to fulfill it." Lin Yun's tone was resolute.

Even if it was the Black Tower, he would insist on taking the Firerock Dwarves out.

Since no Firerock Dwarf came to carry out Harris' will after he fell, but then Weiss showed up, Lin Yun clearly understood that the Black Tower was already controlling the Firerock Dwarven Clan!

Weiss seemed indecisive as he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

At that time, a Firerock Dwarf wearing red, heavy armor with a warhammer slung across his back came from outside the square.

"Weiss, why are you still being so long-winded?"

That Dwarf sounded impatient. It was like a giant creature was walking over as each of his steps made the ground tremble.

He was apparently less than 1.5 meters tall, but weighed over five hundred kilos, and as he walked, he left a series of deep footprints in the ground behind him, each one with the depth of at least three fingers.

Weiss grimaced when he heard that voice.

'No good, that fool Jasker actually came over. This is going to get out of hand… That guy is completely relying on Sir Falton and definitely won't leave the matter as is.'

Weiss left Lin Yun and promptly walked over to block Jasker's path before saying with a calm tone, "Great General Jasker, let me deal with this matter, don't get involved."

Jasker sneered and disdainfully glanced at Weiss.

"Weiss, you seem to have already forgotten what kind of plan Sir Falton has. Could it be that you want to disobey Sir Falton's order? Just for those stupid Dark Elves?"

Chapter 761: Firerock Dwarves

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Weiss' expression turned gloomy.

Before Weiss could say anything, Jasker roughly pushed him away.

"Weiss, the order we received was to destroy the Dark Elven Clan. If you want to act like a spineless slime, you'd better scram. If you can't do it, let me take care of it!"

After saying that, Jasker faintly raised his head to look at Lin Yun, his face filled with malevolence.

"You are the heir chosen by that fool Harris? A human? Harris was really too stupid, a weak and brainless groundhog that actually sold out the Firerock Dwarves. You are out of luck now. You'll follow the Dark Elves in their destruction today. No, you'll die first, and I'll make those Dark Elves that acknowledge a human as their leader accompany you!"

Jasker took the red warhammer off of his back, and his aura burst out like fierce heat waves. His originally red skin was now like a burning blaze, and wisps of white gas rushed into the sky from his body.

As Jasker got ready to attack, the team of Firerock Dwarves outside the square also readied themselves for battle. These Firerock Dwarves were all wearing heavy armor and held iron hammers in their right hands while taking smaller mallets from their waists with their left.

Upon seeing this, a Dark Elf standing in the back immediately shot an arrow. A sharp and ear-piercing sound echoed in the sky, and in an instant, a large group of Hippogryphs and Wyverns flew up with their riders. There was also a large group of Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen rushing over from the rear.

Lin Yun had a calm expression as he waved towards the 2nd Elder. In an instant, all of those incoming Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen retreated.

Jasker laughed with disdain.

"There are only a handful of disabled fighters left, and you still want to resist? It doesn't matter. Regardless of what you do, the final outcome won't change. The Dark Elven Clan will become history starting today."

Jasker only saw a few dozen Dark Elves appearing, but he didn't know that it would have taken three minutes for the entire Dark Elven Clan to gather here.

Seeing Lin Yun gesturing for the Dark Elves to retreat, a smile appeared on his face.

'That human is really weak. Does he want to surrender and negotiate, knowing he can't win? Truly stupid! How could I give you the chance to negotiate in such a situation? Today, I, Jasker, will send you off to meet the Gods.'

Jasker raised his one-meter-long warhammer with an insolent smile.

"Silly human, you think I'm a weakling like Weiss? Don't think I'll let you off if you don't resist!"

Jasker took a mallet from his waist and ruthlessly threw it at Lin Yun. The terrifying power caused the mallet to rotate at a frightening speed. One after another, shining bolts of lightning flickered across the mallet.

In an instant, the mallet had already transformed into a blue and white blur of interwoven light as it appeared in front of Lin Yun.

Lin Yun seemed completely unbothered by this. He hadn't moved at all or chanted anything, but in front of his body, a pile of ice fragments suddenly appeared and crazily grew, instantly transforming into a huge icicle.

When the exploding mallet collided with the icicle, one crack after another kept appearing on the icicle's surface. But a large swarm of ice fragments swiftly moved around and wrapped around the mallet. The ice from the icicle spread, and the mallet ended up being frozen in place.

In the distance, a hint of worry appeared on Weiss' face, but nothing came out when he opened his mouth.

'Merlin is in big trouble this time. Jasker was the 2nd most powerful member of the Firerock Dwarven Clan, second only to the Firerock Dwarves' Clan Head, and before the Firerock Dwarves' Clan Head had advanced to the Heaven Rank, Jaster could last thirty minutes against him.

'Although he had only been an 8th Rank Sword Saint back then, his fighting power was a few times that of a normal 8th Rank Sword Saint.

'Although Merlin isn't weak and was able to suppress 5th Rank Sword Saints before advancing, Jasker isn't an ordinary Sword Saint. His power is too frightening, even exceeding that of some level 38 magic beasts that excel in terms of power.

'It looks like Merlin only recently advanced to the 1st Rank and might end up in a disaster. But I can't do anything… Helping Merlin means betraying the Black Tower. Sir Falton definitely wouldn't let me off.

'And if I do something, I would also have to give an account to Sir Harren… Forget, it doesn't concern me…'

Weiss gritted his teeth, feeling conflicted for a bit before ultimately retreating, thinking that he might as well not help, as everything would be solved through strength one way or another.

The mallet that Jasker had thrown was supposed to finish this battle. These mallets were important to the Firerock Dwarves' fighting methods. Due to the long amount of time they spent forging, the Firerock Dwarves had terrifying power within their arms, and a mallet thrown with that kind of power would fly faster than sound and cause friction in the air, rousing the power of thunder and lightning. At such a close distance, it definitely couldn't be blocked by a human mage.

But it was not only blocked… It was blocked in such an unfathomable manner!

It was the Chill spell!

It looked as if that spell was just waiting for the mallet to fall into it in order to freeze it!

Jasker was slightly sluggish for a moment before he was roused by the wave of sound from the impact.

The mallet had already exceeded the speed of sound, so the sound of it being stopped so suddenly echoed loudly like a crashing tide.

"Rumble…"

A fierce vibration could be felt as the ice broke into tiny fragments, and as the mallet hit the ground, it also shattered into a dozen pieces.

Jasker, who was proficient in forging metal, immediately understood that in this short second, the mallet had already been completely frozen. This kind of metal needed to reach an extreme temperature to become so fragile. And the lower the temperature, the brittler it would become.

For it to shatter upon touching the ground meant that this Chill spell had the power of an Ultimate Spell!

A nasty grin appeared on Jasker's face as he grabbed his warhammer with both hands and kicked the ground with his feet. He was like a flying arrow flying towards Lin Yun.

"Damned human, don't think that a Low Tier Ultimate Spell will be enough! Accept your death!"

Lin Yun stood still with no change in his expression as if he couldn't see Jasker rushing over to attack him. He wasn't even holding his Draconic Staff.

In the distance, Weiss couldn't help letting out an alarmed cry as he thought, 'How could Merlin just stay there? Jasker's power is terrifying, it would be a disaster if he got close.'

The Dark Elves in the back were also getting restless. The 2nd Elder couldn't bear not moving, but seeing that Lin Yun's companions weren't moving at all, he forcibly suppressed his urge.

After all, Lin Yun was the master of the Dark Elves. It would be a humiliation to him if a subordinate interfered with his fight without prompt.

Jasker swung his warhammer while baring his teeth and glaring at Lin Yun, apparently already seeing the scene of this human being sent flying from the blow.

The warhammer carried immense momentum, to the point that lightning arcs formed on the surface of the hammer.

The warhammer's swing had reached its peak power, and only three meters remained!

Such a distance could easily be ignored by a Sword Saint. At this distance, apart from powerful mages that were proficient in spatial spells and able to instantly teleport, no one could dodge!

But suddenly, without any sign, an Ice Shield appeared in front of Jasker's warhammer. The Ice Shield that appeared was blue like the sky, with small dots of starlight flickering on it.

The curved Ice Shield was hit by the warhammer and cracks started appearing on it, but Jasker had already been intercepted.

A terrifying shockwave spread from the collision, and it was accompanied by countless blue lightning rays that instantly swept through everything around.

The next moment, a rune lit up at the center of the Ice Shield, and in an instant, a blue-colored attack flashed and swept across Jasker.

It only took a moment for a layer of blue ice to cover Jasker and his warhammer, and due to the reverse impact, Jasker was sent flying back.

In the distance, Weiss let out a complicated sigh.

'From what I've seen, it's clear that these Firerock Dwarves are powerful, but their mobility and agility isn't that impressive. It would appear that ice spells are the most logical ones to use.

'Unfortunately for Merlin, these red-skinned Dwarves are always forging all year round, and due to them staying near furnaces all the time, as well as their racial gift, their body's internal energy accumulates a huge amount of heat. This gives them very powerful resistance towards flames, and if they meet ice, the accumulated heat will let them create a burst of steam that allows them to strike a blow with power far exceeding what they could normally manage.

'Merlin is still quite young. I don't know what else he might still be hiding, but unfortunately, the fight is already over. I've heard that Jasker's hammer strike once killed an armored level 38 beast in one blow, and that was one of the beasts with the strongest defenses.

As Jasker was knocked away while covered in ice, the heat accumulated within his body suddenly burst out and his skin turned red, and the frost covering him instantly blew up.

Chapter 762: Motionless

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Taking advantage of the burst of power, Jasker fiercely stomped on the ground and forcibly stopped himself. His body then instantly disappeared, only leaving a large hole behind.

Jasker's body transformed into a flowing, red light that exceeded everyone's reaction speed to once again appear in front of Lin Yun. The warhammer in his hands was bursting with an invisible flame and made the surrounding space twist.

The warhammer once again ruthlessly smashed towards Lin Yun's head.

Lin Yun was still standing in the same spot, and even though he didn't even raise a finger, a deep blue Ice Shield appeared in front of him.

The Ice Shield instantly blocked Jasker's warhammer and a rune flashed… It was another Ultimate Chill. The blue light swept over, and Jasker's body was once again covered by a layer of ice.

But this time, the slow effect of the Chill spell was a lot weaker, and Jasker's speed was only slightly reduced to the point of barely being visible.

The Ice Shield exploded, and behind the fragments was a sphere of ice. A large amount of ice burst out from that sphere.

It turned into a terrifying waterfall of ice ruthlessly colliding against Jasker.

Jasker was sent flying once again.

Weiss was a bit stunned.

'How could Mafa Merlin be so powerful? An ordinary Ice Shield with a Chill, and hidden behind that shield, could that have been a Frost Nova? But Frost Nova has explosive power, how could Mafa Merlin control the direction of the explosion? Let alone having it completely burst towards the front?'

The situation kept changing at a pace so fast that Weiss already couldn't keep up.

Jasker broke out of the ice once again, but his skin appeared to be bleeding as the surging heat burst out of his body.

He angrily roared, "Damn b*stard, I'll make you pay the price! Die!"

His face was blood red, as if the color had been painted on. A berserk aura spread from his body into the surroundings, raising the temperature around him.

He arrived in front of Lin Yun once again, only to be met with another Ice Shield, but this Ice Shield was rapidly rotating.

The warhammer collided with the rapidly rotating Ice Shield and caused blue lightning to crackle. Jasker glared as he firmly held his warhammer, the veins on his arms seemingly ready to burst.

Another rune appeared, but it wasn't just a Chill this time. It was a Freeze!

A sharp sound echoed as Jasker once again was sent flying back. But this time, it wasn't just a layer of frost on his skin. He was completely frozen into a huge block of ice.

The block of ice flew out and tumbled for several dozen meters, but they could see that Jasker was like a fireball within the ice and they couldn't even see his figure. They could only see a vaguely human-shaped flame inside the ice.

The army of Firerock Dwarves acted at this time. They let out loud roars as they rushed forward, and in an instant, several hundred mallets flew towards Lin Yun at the same time, like a blue river of lightning.

Lin Yun faintly squinted without moving from his spot, and everyone felt powerful mana fluctuations bursting from his body!

The shadow of a huge wheel appeared several meters behind him. The wheel seemed to be made of countless runes piled up together, and there were several parts that were hard to discern, which were made of several unclear runes.

The wheel rotated, and the huge runes on top made the onlookers dizzy. Pieces of data were floating and drifting every moment, and if anyone under the Archmage realm tried to make the calculations with them, it wouldn't take more than three seconds before they lost their minds.

But at this moment, Lin Yun's expression remained unchanged as he looked at those several hundred flying mallets, his wheel languidly rotating.

In an instant, the endless runes rotating inside burst out like a blaze, and as they sprayed out, Frost Spikes shining with several hundred profound colors appeared in front of Lin Yun.

Thunderous booms echoed as the Frost Spikes collided with the several hundred mallets.

Every single mallet collided with a single Frost Spike, without any extras.

And while the mallets were colliding with the Frost Spikes, every Frost Spike shone with the rune of a Chill Spell.

"Crack… Crack…"

A series of shattering sounds echoed as the flickering lightning disappeared, replaced by falling shards of ice forming piles as they hit the ground.

At this time, the flames of the huge ice cube in the distance seemed to have reached their pinnacle as they loudly exploded. The ice was blown apart, and Jasker's enraged face appeared.

The heat emitted from his body was still bursting out, and his skin was filled with cracks like the earth with blood seeping out of them. As it leaked out, the moisture contained within kept evaporating, and only scabs kept falling from Jasker's body. It looked terrible.

"B*stard! Die! Die!"

Jasker went completely insane. A blaze could be seen in his eyes as he rushed over once again.

This time, Lin Yun faintly glanced at Jasker and let out a single sound.

In a split second, the temperature within the air quickly dropped, and snowflakes started falling down, before an icy blue rune fell and hit Jasker.

The heat within Jasker's body rushed out and made his body keep distorting. The boundless heat transformed into an invisible barrier that withstood those continuously falling those icy blue runes.

But then, a blue gas appeared between Jasker and the blue runes. The power of the heat and ice fiercely collided and made the mana in Jasker's surroundings rebel, escaping his control.

It only took one second for that ice rune to be imprinted on Jasker's body. Jasker flew into a rage and his expression froze as a huge ice cube appeared, freezing Jasker within.

The group of Firerock Dwarves was also rushing over. Lin Yun let out another sound, and a gale rose up. Countless cyan Wind Blades converged together into a tempest that ruthlessly struck the group of Firerock Dwarves.

Angry roars and painful wails burst out from them.

At the start, they could still rely on their armor to resist, but their armor's defensive power kept weakening as the Wind Blades left holes in them.

After a few seconds, half of the army fell to the ground, unable to stand after the tendons in their legs or feet were cut by Lin Yun strange tempest.

Lin Yun let out another sound, and a fiery rune flew out. The rune kept transforming and turned into several dozen runes that formed a Flame Spear. As it flew out, the Flame Spear kept splitting apart, forming several hundred Flame Spears in an instant.

"Woosh…"

As the sound of the Flame Spears piercing through the air echoed, the chaotic army of Firerock Dwarves was nailed to the ground, painfully groaning. They all struggled, only to discover that the flames of the Flame Spears were growing. The smell of burnt flesh slowly rose up.

In less than ten seconds, the elite Firerock Dwarves were all lying on the ground.

As for Jasker, he roused the heat from his body once again to get rid of the ice trapping him, but this time, his figure distorted and a burning flame shone brightly in the ice.

Then, the ice loudly exploded, and Jasker exploded along with it.

The Firerock Dwarves' talent and constitution would allow them to slowly accumulate heat to use at crucial times to increase their strength, but there was a limit. Each time that heat was roused, it would become stronger and stronger.

No Firerock Dwarf under the Heaven Rank would dare to rouse that heat three times in a row, because the power would explode them from the inside.

Weiss was thoroughly stupefied by the way Jasker died.

'This… This…

'Turns out Mafa Merlin wasn't unaware, he was just toying with Jasker! From the start, he hasn't even lifted a finger, and he still managed to deal with Jasker and the army…

'He is too strong, that power is definitely comparable to that of a 9th Rank Archmage!

'Heavens, I understand… Mafa Merlin didn't intend to kill Jasker, and he gave him an opportunity. That guy wouldn't die as long as he stopped attacking. But as long as Jasker kept attacking, the heat within his body would be roused again and again, until he eventually was unable to resist that formidable power. He would be killing himself…'

Chapter 763: Resurrection

'Right, it's like that. Mafa Merlin doesn't want to act too rigid, he didn't want to completely give up on the friendship with the Black Tower.

'No good, I have to step in, I have to persuade him. Merlin is so powerful without even moving a finger… And he also has those terrifying True Spirit Magic Tools. Just how strong would he be at full power?

'When I came out, Sir Falton wasn't much more powerful than the current Mafa Merlin. Keeping all the benefits is impossible. Forcibly opposing his desire will make the Black Tower suffer huge losses. We have to cooperate. Sir Falton would definitely approve if he saw this.

'Even if Jasker died, ultimately, he killed himself. Mafa Merlin was being quite lenient.'

As he thought of this, Weiss could no longer wait.

"Sir Merlin, please wait!"

Weiss wiped the sweat from his forehead as he shouted.

But when he saw Lin Yun slightly frown, Weiss was immediately alarmed and promptly waved his hands.

"Sir Merlin, please don't attack, I definitely don't plan to fight you."

Only when he saw the wheel behind Lin Yun disappearing did Weiss sigh in relief.

"Sir Merlin, I'm deeply regretful about the previous matter. Jasker isn't under my command, but the orders he received are real. However, we weren't aware Sir Merlin was actually here.

"Please let me give you a sincere apology on behalf of the Black Tower."

Weiss slightly bowed in a show of goodwill.

Seeing as the battle was over, Enderfa floated over, his three faces filled with ridicule as they looked at Weiss.

"In the end, you are still trying to please both sides… If it were up to me, I would have first gotten rid of you."

Weiss smiled awkwardly and ignored Enderfa to look at Lin Yun with a sincere expression.

"Sir Merlin, Jasker sought out death himself, but these Firerock Dwarves don't know anything… Can you let them off? Rest assured, they absolutely won't retaliate against you, everything is due to Jasker's mistake."

Weiss resolutely pushed all mistakes onto the deceased Jasker while probing for Lin Yun's reaction.

Lin Yun looked at the Firerock Dwarves and slowly nodded. They had already lost their fighting power and couldn't reverse the situation. He had promised to Harris that he would lead the Firerock Dwarves to Noscent, so how could he get rid of an entire group just afterwards?

A hint of happiness appeared on Weiss' face, and he couldn't help rubbing his hands together.

'Great, Sir Merlin really does want to maintain his friendship with the Black Tower. Even that small misunderstanding was resolved.'

"Sir Merlin, you see, we didn't know you were also in the God Nation. Since you are also here, tell me what you think of this…

"Weren't we a team before? As members of the same team, we should continue our exploration like before. This God Nation is huge and possesses all kinds of ruins and remains, and they are very valuable.

"These ruins are very dangerous, and it would be a lot easier with Sir Merlin. We can continue collaborating and explore this God Nation together. You know, our Black Tower has gathered a lot of precious materials over time, and as we explored, we discovered many valuable ruins.

"Naturally, we have to split the loot evenly, and we could let Sir Merlin be the first to choose the items. How about it?

"I'm looking forward to exploring the secrets of this world…"

As he finished his words, Weiss nervously looked at Lin Yun. These were the best conditions he could give, but in that case, they would be able to conduct the exploration a lot faster, and it would be much safer, too. They wouldn't suffer too much loss, and they could avoid conflicts. It was the best solution.

Lin Yun slightly frowned as he contemplated the offer.

'The Black Tower's people are already controlling the Firerock Dwarves, and their Clan is the strongest of the three in the God Nations. The Dark Elves suffered heavy losses, and their strength sharply fell. It's more or less the same for the Ash Beastmen, so the two races together are probably roughly even with the Firerock Dwarven Clan, and might possibly be worse.

'Moreover, the Black Tower's side has gotten a huge increase in power at some point. Weiss probably wasn't lying about being the weakest. After all, that Jasker didn't show any respect towards him.

'Thus, Falton should have gotten extremely strong. To be able to control the entire Clan, his power shouldn't be far from the Black Tower's Chairman, Harren.

'Cooperation could be considered…'

Seeing Lin Yun thinking about it, Weiss felt his heart calming down. Even if Lin Yun didn't agree, at least he wouldn't become hostile over the proposition.

But at this time, a shadow quickly flew over from the distance, emitting powerful mana fluctuations and an aura of death.

The figure wrapped in a shield flew down and landed not far from Weiss.

The shield scattered, and an extremely scary monster appeared.

The monster was wearing a wide robe. The left side of his face looked like an ordinary person's, and his left hand and foot were also normal. However, the right side of his face was just a white skull, and a soul fire was fiercely swaying within that eye socket. His right hand and foot were made of gloomy white bones.

Through a small crack on the skull, the flesh within the left side of the skull could clearly be seen.

It felt as if that person had been cut in two halves, with the right half being an Undead Skeleton and the left half human. That formed a strange monster.

The left half was emitting the mana fluctuations of a 9th Rank Archmage. While in the right half, the flickering soul fire was emitting a huge amount of death aura with roughly the same level of power.

When the mana on the left side flowed through his body towards the right side, it instantly turned into death power, and the right side's death power turned into mana after reaching the left side.

The blood on the left side could even be seen flowing continuously towards the right side before strangely disappearing.

Lin Yun frowned, wondering what was going on with that strange monster and why it looked like a strange half-human, half-undead monster. Furthermore, his aura was too strange. It simply didn't look like an ordinary specimen of the living dead, and both sides of his body were at completely different extremes.

And most importantly, Lin Yun recognized the human side. That was what made Lin Yun the most puzzled.

At this moment, the human side was twisted with malevolence. His eye was bloodshot and seemed to be coming out of its socket as he glared. Anyone could see the pure hate and malice within.

The monster was angrily glaring at Lin Yun, and as if he had gone mad, he roared like a magic beast.

"Merlin! Mafa Merlin! You didn't expect it, did you? You didn't think I would still be alive! Ever since I opened my eyes again, I hoped to see you, I could no longer wait. I really can't wait to tear you to shreds and seal your soul into a Magic Tool to torture you day and night!"

Weiss was greatly alarmed as he saw that monster and promptly said, "Suval, calm down…"

Suval suddenly turned his head and glanced at Weiss with that bulging eye before frantically roaring, "Weiss! You fool! Don't think I don't know you about you and Merlin being friends! You've already betrayed the Black Tower, haven't you? If Sir Falton hadn't told me not to kill you, you would have been the first to die after I awakened! Just wait and watch, once we return to the Black Tower, you'll be put on trial, and you'll be doomed."

Weiss' face turned ashen, but he only stood there in anger and didn't say anything. He only glanced at Suval's appearance, then looked at Lin Yun again before secretly sighing.

'When we encountered the Orachiss, that fool kept challenging Mafa Merlin's patience, thinking that Merlin would be lenient because he was a member of the Black Tower.

'Moreover, he kept going after Mafa Merlin several times after they formed a team. No one could say anything to Mafa Merlin then, so it could only wait until they returned to the Black Tower to be brought again.

'I did hear that Suval had quite a good background in the Black Tower and that even the Chairman is somewhat afraid of it. But I truly didn't expect that when Suval died, Falton would unexpectedly take out the Requiem Jar.

'Damn, I did hear that the Black Tower had this kind of valuable Magic Tool, but I didn't expect that it would be with Sir Falton. Isn't that thing something that even the Chairman doesn't have the right to use casually?

'This should have been due to Suval's backer! The Requiem Jar is a rare Magic Tool that can perfectly store a soul and maintain it. It definitely wouldn't turn him into an Undead. As long as there was a suitable body, he would be resurrected!

'Unfortunately, after being used, it would need a lot of rare materials before it could be used again.

'Fifty years ago, that powerful Chairman comparable to the current Sir Harren died at the entrance of the Black Tower and didn't use the Requiem Jar, yet it was used for a complete idiot like Suval.

'And after getting the Requiem Jar, he should have remained inside until we reached the Black Tower, but something happened in those ruins.

'If that hadn't happened, this fool would have been resurrected back at the Black Tower, but for some unknown reason, he was resurrected in those ruins.

'Moreover, he had turned into this half-human, half-undead monster, becoming a lot stronger than when he was alive.

'That guy was a mad dog. He had already gone insane since he lost the chance at a regular resurrection. How the hell did he know that Merlin was within the Dark Elven Clan?'

Chapter 764: Let Off Lightly

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

'No, he probably just heard that humans had appeared here. If that lunatic heard about Mafa Merlin being here, he would have already crazily fought his way over.

'Regardless, I don't have the authority to command Suval, and I have no way to convince that lunatic. That fool already advanced to the 9th Rank… If I try to persuade him, he'll definitely attack me without any hesitation.'

The pale Weiss silently retreated and didn't say anything else to Suval. This situation was far beyond his control.

Lin Yun frowned as he glanced at Suval. He couldn't figure out how Suval became like this. When Suval died, his body turned to ashes, but he couldn't have known that his soul would be secretly taken away.

At that time, he had been fighting with the Orachiss, and the situation was critical, so it was normal for him not to notice. With Suval's soul safely recovered, it wouldn't be difficult for the Black Tower to revive him.

But what happened for him to change like that?

As Lin Yun was racking his brain, Suval completely exploded.

Gales rose with a wave of his left hand, and a fifty-meter-tall tornado appeared, tearing apart the surroundings as it quickly charged towards Lin Yun.

At the same time, Suval's skeletal right hand was raised, and runes carrying an aura of death throbbed at his fingertips as he pointed at Lin Yun.

In an instant, many skeletal arms rose up from the ground in a seven-meter-wide circle around Lin Yun.

The bony arms connected to each other and formed a huge birdcage trapping Lin Yun within.

The sinister bones let out death aura, which rotated around the cage and soon transformed into sinister ghosts.

"Aaah…"

Specters let out ear-piercing shrieks that frantically washed over Lin Yun.

And the tornado was closing in on him. The originally white tornado had turned cyan and now looked like a huge killing machine that was continuously leaking cold rays of light before colliding with the Bone Cage.

The numerous Wind Blades were letting out a lot of sparks as they struck the bones of the cage as if they simply couldn't cut their way through.

Those bones seemed strange, having terrifying defensive power.

A large number of small Wind Blades piled up and forcibly squeezed into a small gap in the cage, apparently in order to tear Lin Yun to shreds.

Lin Yun frowned slightly. Suval definitely had the power of a 9th Rank Archmage, as his casting speed and power were very frightening.

Especially since he could simultaneously use a Wind Spell and an Undead Spell. This was a lot more powerful than a 9th Rank Archmage that had just advanced.

Suval wasn't just strange… He was sinister and powerful.

Lin Yun took out his Draconic Staff and a light flashed at its tip. Boundless flames spread with Lin Yun at the center, bursting out and filling the entire Bone Cage.

Lin Yun instantly used Fire Elemental Incarnation and squeezed out of the cage.

The Bone Cage's restriction simply couldn't stop these erupting flames.

At this time, the cyan tornado had made its way into the Bone Cage and forcibly extinguished the flames within.

"Hahaha, damned Merlin, die! Die! Be torn to shreds! Such a death is letting you off lightly. Your soul is mine, so I won't let you die so easily. I'll make sure to thoroughly torture you, I'll put your soul in a new body and slowly torture you to death before changing your body again, just to make your soul slowly dissipate from the torture… Hahaha!"

Suval was crazily laughing, and the left half of his face had already thoroughly distorted beyond recognition. It was malevolent to the point where no trace of rationality could be seen. The soul fire in his right eye socket was also frantically flickering, and the malicious fluctuations could clearly be felt by people hundreds of meters away.

That strange, evil sensation made people feel numb as it flooded their minds.

At this time, a ball of fire appeared several dozen meters away from the Bone Cage. This was Lin Yun in his Fire Elemental Incarnation.

Lin Yun was frowning while looking at Suval's distorted appearance, and the huge wheel shadow slowly appeared behind him.

Weiss was at a loss.

'Damn Suval, that madman! He might have ended up looking particularly grotesque after his resurrection, but it did make him very powerful.

'After reviving, he tortured the dozen Firerock Dwarves beside him to death, and a few of those were first-rate craftsmen who had saved us a lot of time and greatly reduced the dangers of the excavation.

'But Suval shaved away half their flesh, and if not for Sir Falton suppressing that lunatic, he might have killed me too!

'Fortunately, it had happened during the excavation of very dangerous ruins, so we were able to blame the deaths on the ruins themselves. Otherwise, the Clan Head of the Firerock Dwarves definitely wouldn't have let it go.

'After awakening, that guy seemed to have been possessed by some sort of fiend. He was suppressed by Falton in the Firerock Dwarven Clan and wasn't allowed to casually kill Firerock Dwarves, so he ended up killing a level 38 magic beast outside the clan.

'And that was the magic beast with the strongest vitality under the Heaven Rank, a powerful Earthworm that could recover even if its body was cut in two. Suval actually managed to kill it by cutting it into pieces…

'And now he's definitely gone crazy after looking at Mafa Merlin… But Mafa Merlin is unexpectedly powerful. If he is killed here, everyone will end up dying, possibly including me.

'Forget it, might as well watch. If it looks like Mafa Merlin is on the losing side, I will immediately escape…'

After carefully thinking about it, Weiss secretly backed off a bit. He knew that he definitely wouldn't be able to slip away secretly, so he could only wait for a chaotic moment to escape.

Lin Yun was somewhat surprised by how violent Suval's power was.

Lin Yun fully used Fire Elemental Incarnation and turned into a seven-meter-tall Flame Elemental, flooding the area around him with fire.

He then raised his Draconic Staff, and the wheel shadow behind him slowly rotated, causing an endless number of runes to appear on the wheel.

In an instant, a golden-red spear over three meters long appeared in the sky. It seemed to be made of pure gold adorned with numerous runes, and golden-red flames were burning on it

A Fire God Spear appeared, but it was a lot bigger than before. Before advancing, Lin Yun's Fire God Spear only had a few runes, and there were only one or two additional effects.

But now, these runes were flowing and quickly combining into multiple runes with profound aura.

Zeuss, who was looking at the fight from a distance, was startled. "A Fire God Spear can actually have that many effects?! Haste, Pierce, Burn, Vanish, Homing… And moreover, it seems to still be absorbing the surrounding fire elements to grow stronger! Heavens, Merlin didn't even chant the spell, it was an instant-cast!"

After the first Fire God Spear appeared, more identical Fire God Spears condensed in the surroundings!

Then, everyone could see the Fire God Spears dissipate as if they had only been a mirage.

In the air, a dozen trajectories appeared as the Fire God Spears instantly appeared in front of Suval.

Half of Suval's face was completely distorted and not a single trace of shock or anger could be seen… There was only a pleasantly surprised smile.

"Hahaha, Merlin, you stupid rat, you didn't die. Good, very good! Dying like that would be letting you off too easily…"

He blocked in front of his body with both of his arms. In an instant, many bone fragments condensed in front of Suval and assembled into a skeleton shield, and on the surface of the shield was a skeletal mouth groaning, as well as eye sockets looking ahead with malicious intent.

Then, a large amount of ice aura converged together and fused with the skeleton shield, condensing a layer of frost over it.

In an instant, the skeletal shield, which was less than two meters in size, seemed to be covered by a three-meter-wide Ice Shield. Through the ice, the surface of the skeletal shield could still be seen, and ice-cold flames were still swaying within the eye sockets.

"Ding, ding, ding…"

The dozen Fire God Spears covered in runes struck the two-layered shield and let out a series of ear-piercing noises.

Chapter 765: Severing Blade

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Ice was shattered, as it simply couldn't resist the Fire God Spears. They pierced straight through the Ice Shield before impaling the skeletal shield. But the shield's bones started crazily rushing forth to tear at the Fire God Spears, which greatly hindered them.

At the same time, the cold aura on the Ice Shield also transformed into a blue stream of air that kept attacking the Fire God Spears, apparently intending to freeze them.

The raging golden flames kept withstanding the bones and the ice aura.

In an instant, they could only see the dozen Fire God Spears plugged into the two-layered shield. The golden-red flames exploded, and the ice and the bones were also destroyed.

Only some bone fragments that had been burnt black could be seen falling down from the sky as Suval howled crazily with laughter, his eye bulging out of its socket.

"Merlin, aaahhh, Mafa Merlin… Is this your power? Too weak, too weak! I can't wait to kill you, your body, your flesh, must be sweet, I can't wait…" Suval faced upward as he shouted.

The death aura on half of his body was crazily surging, and the clothing on the right half was unable to resist the corrosion from the aura, so it disintegrated, exposing the right half's skeletal body.

Bone shields appeared one after another in his surroundings.

Three gray arrays appeared out of nowhere on the ground around him, and with a flash of light, three completely rotten and putrid Three-Headed Helldogs appeared.

"Come on my darlings, tear apart that wretched smelly rat!" Suval crazily shouted while pointing at Lin Yun.

The three Zombie Three-Headed Helldogs bared their teeth as they charged at Lin Yun.

They moved so quickly that it looked like they were teleporting, leaving sharp claw marks on the ground wherever they moved.

In the distance, Elsa was a bit worried as she looked at the battlefield and inquired in a low voice, "Should we help Sir Merlin? These three are level 38 Zombie Three-Headed Helldogs. Not only are they very fast, but they have even fewer weak points than ordinary Three-Headed Helldogs, not to mention their deadly diseases and poisons. Those aren't simple monsters, we-"

Elsa didn't have time to finish her words before Enderfa shook his head and interrupted.

"No need, those dead dogs aren't a problem for Mafa Merlin, that half-human, half-undead is the most troublesome one…"

Lin Yun didn't even glance at the three Helldogs, keeping his eyes focused on Suval.

He took out the Book of Death and poured mana into it to summon Lagulin and Barton, who engaged the three Zombie dogs.

Suval sneered, "I said I would kill you! I won't impulsively tear you to shreds, but I'll kill you slowly. It starts now!"

With those words, Suval pointed his skeletal finger at Lin Yun and an ashen black light appeared at his fingertip. In an instant, a black ray of light appeared in front of Lin Yun.

The ray of light hit the shield in front of Lin Yun without causing a ripple, but Lin Yun instantly frowned.

'Language Curse?'

That ray of light had no offensive power, but it instantly turned into a malicious curse when it came into contact with Lin Yun's mana, disturbing his ability to speak.

Lin Yun didn't need to try it to know that he wouldn't be able to chant for the time being. Even one-word incantations wouldn't work.

7th Tier Spells aside, Lin Yun only needed one sound to cast a 6th Tier Spell, but that sound wasn't the incantation itself; it was, in fact, the compressed version of the incantation, compressing all spells to a single sound greatly reduced the casting time.

But essentially, that sound was still an entire incantation.

With his speaking ability cursed, he couldn't chant an incantation and could only use instant-spells.

Weiss' expression had become unsightly as he saw that spell.

'Damn, Suval is only half-undead but he seems to be proficient in all kinds of undead spells, like summoning, curses, and offensive spells.

'Merlin is in danger, he can no longer use powerful spells with his casting ability temporarily lost. I should prepare my escape route… Once that madman, Suval, loses his mind, he definitely won't be lenient…'

Facing this kind of situation, Lin Yun still seemed undisturbed. In fact, he sneered. Had this happened before he advanced, that curse would have displayed great effects, but now…

In an instant, the shadow wheel behind Lin Yun rapidly rotated, and boundless runes surged out.

Spells of the four elements condensed in front of Lin Yun, and in a second, over a hundred spells had condensed. The huge Dragon Crystal at the tip of the Draconic Staff started shining with the radiance of four colors.

Red flames, cyan gales, blue ice, and brown rocks mixed together within a narrow area. The spells of the four elements kept colliding and compressing before fiercely moving as one.

All the shaped spells collapsed and turned into a crazily rotating four-element storm that looked like a tornado, sweeping through all elemental power in the surroundings before ruthlessly suppressing Suval.

A large ravine was left in the path of the storm.

However, Suval didn't even try to dodge. The several Bone Shields around him frantically revolved and formed a barrier around him, and as the Bone Shields collided with the four-element storm, a fierce, wave-like power spread in the surroundings.

Decorative rocks that had been spread around the square were hit by those waves and seemed weightless as they started flying into the air one after another before crashing in the distance.

No one within a kilometer could be seen still watching this battle, and the battlefield between Lagulin, Barton, and the three Zombie Three-Headed Helldogs was forcibly kept away.

Suval extended his left hand, and a glaring ray of light shone from his palm. In an instant, a green light flickered, and a pillar of light soared.

After a second, a huge, cyan tornado suddenly appeared, carrying terrifying pressure as it ruthlessly pushed towards Lin Yun.

Lin Yun frowned, and the wheel shadow rapidly rotated, making a similar tornado appear before his eyes and rotate in the opposite direction. It charged over and collided with the other tornado.

The collision between the two tornadoes with completely different rotations caused lightning to appear. The rumbling thunder and glaring lightning kept flashing in the tornadoes, and countless Wind Blades were sent flying from the point of impact into the surroundings.

"Damned Merlin, you have this kind of skill? Drop dead!"

Suval burst out into loud, maniacal laughter. The ground in front of him started to shake as an eight-meter-long skeletal hand rose up from the ground and ruthlessly swung at the four-element storm. With that aiding the Bone Shields' defenses, the four-element storm even showed signs of being pushed back.

As the hand blocked the four elements, his other hand shone once again with a bright cyan sphere of light. The sphere of light flew into the sky and transformed into Wind Blades that caused fierce spatial fluctuations as they fell towards Lin Yun.

Weiss, in the distance, had already made his preparations to flee. 'Suval cast so many Severing Blades at once! Merlin is definitely done for.'

In the back, Elsa was filled with shock. She had awakened her Sky Bloodline and also had the power of a 9th Rank Archmage, but she couldn't cast a rain of Severing Blades like that.

And apart from dodging it, there was no real wait to resist it. The spatial fluctuations could make this ordinarily common Gale Blade skip a few levels.

Elsa took a step forward, ready to get involved, when Enderfa once again blocked her path and said, "Are you in a hurry or something? Merlin has yet to even use his True Spirit Magic Tools."

On the battlefield, Lin Yun raised his head and glanced over.

"Really annoying."

The mana fluctuations coming from his body sharply increased.

The wheel behind him revolved even faster, and boundless runes burst out like a volcanic eruption.

The space in front of Lin Yun already seemed distorted. The glowing red flames and rocks condensed into a huge, twenty-meter-long palm that ruthlessly swatted at the Severing Blades.

Those blades carried a sharp aura that could even display spatial power. After colliding with the huge palm, sharp sounds started echoing.

The huge palm that was as hard as metal couldn't resist those Severing Blades. One after another, the cyan Wind Blades cut through the stony hand.

But as these Severing Blades pierced through the palm, the red flames burning on the surface of the palm suddenly turned into a white blaze, and the surging heat made the surrounding space quickly distort. The suddenly increasing heat caused a violent airflow to revolve around the palm.

And the convergence of flames and rock successfully formed burning white lava within the hand. Although the Severing Blades had formidable cutting power and sharpness, they were unable to cut as quickly after reaching the lava.

Chapter 766: Ghost Incarnation

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

The Severing Blades simply couldn't withstand that terrifying temperature. The structure of the spell itself was collapsing from the heat!

After piercing through the palm, they weren't able to go further than a meter before dissipating, turning into pure magic elements.

As for that rock palm with blazing white flames, it ruthlessly flew towards the large skeletal hand cast by Suval.

It was comparable to Iron Essence in terms of hardness, and its enormous weight created great impact power. A terrifying cracking sound echoed when the two hands collided.

The air and the mana elements were forcibly blown out when sandwiched by the power.

And the blazing white flames instantly turned the giant skeletal hand into a pile of black fragments.

After shattering the huge bone palm, the flaming rock palm Lin Yun had released swept alongside the four-element storm and ruthlessly pressured its way towards Suval.

The rotating Bone Shields resisted, but awful cracks kept appearing on the surface of the shields.

It looked as if the bones were burnt by holy light as they quickly turned black, reducing the defensive power of the Bone Shields by more than half in an instant.

Shock flashed in Suval's eyes.

He started dodging for the first time. The power contained within those white flames terrified him, and he could even feel the death aura spontaneously avoiding the newly appearing white flames on the surface of that palm.

"Impossible! How could you comprehend Holy power!"

Suval rapidly dodged towards the side, and a large amount of black smoke surged from his body as he turned completely translucent, his speed doubling.

He appeared several dozen meters away in an instant.

'Ghost Incarnation, that guy really comprehended the Ghost Incarnation spell!'

A hint of understanding flashed in Lin Yun's eyes, but his actions weren't slowed at all.

Without Suval's control, the Bone Shields simply couldn't resist the blazing white flames and were destroyed in a second.

"Fool, don't you know that besides Holy power, Fire spells are very powerful against the Undead?"

Lin Yun didn't explain too much. These blazing white flames had been forcibly summoned from the Fire Plane. It was Starfire, pure flames with terrifying temperature. Some Magic Tools with Star Essence Gold needed Starfire to melt the Star Essence Gold into it.

Suval's body was abnormal. Only hatred remained in his eyes and his rationality had almost completely been lost. He simply couldn't react when seeing the famous Starfire.

Suval turned into a ghost and faded into a faint shadow. His speed was terrifying, and even the power of his Undead Spells had increased.

A large number of dim white Bone Spears fell down from the sky like rain, piercing towards Lin Yun. The sharp tip of the Bone Spears flickered with a small jet-black glow, as there was a rune at the tip of the spears.

That was a Magic Penetration Rune. Mana Shields couldn't even block for one second in front of that rune, so the simplest method to counteract it was to use Ice Shields.

Lin Yun scattered his Mana Shields and condensed deep blue Ice Shields on all sides. These Ice Shields rapidly rotated and blocked the Bone Spears one after another.

Lin Yun stood still where he was while the wheel shadow behind him rapidly spouted runes and a large number of spells, but Suval was too fast. These spells simply couldn't hit him.

The fight ended up in a deadlock. Suval turned into a shadow that kept dodging while also casting spells towards Lin Yun, while Lin Yun just remained where he was, continuously casting Ice Shields to defend and releasing many spells to attack.

"Why isn't Merlin using a large-scale spell, why is he still using single-target spells? Those won't be able to reach that monster, right?" Elsa couldn't help asking.

The others ignored her, completely focused on the fight. But she wasn't the only one feeling doubtful.

Soon, the 2nd Elder, and a few relatively powerful people, discovered that the rhythm of the battle was completely within Lin Yun's grasp. Suval was just like a trapped beast that was being herded by Lin Yun in a certain direction.

All the spells Lin Yun cast in one direction were a bit stronger, while the ones cast in another direction were a bit weaker. Even the gaps between casts happened to allow Suval to dodge towards the side with weaker spells.

After a short while, Lin Yun slowly extended a finger and softly pointed towards the front.

And at this time, the power of the chasing spells increased in intensity, while blazing white flames appeared on one side and Frost Spikes with increased piercing power appeared on the other.

The spells on both sides ruthlessly surrounded Suval, and he unhesitantly used Ghost Incarnation to turn into a specter and cross through the Frost Spikes.

Frost Spikes pierced through Suval's body but left no injuries. A complete Ghost Incarnation could resist all physical attacks.

All the power added to the Frost Spikes had been used to strengthen the hardness, and the freezing damage was reduced to the minimum.

As Frost Spikes kept piercing through him, Suval only suffered slight cold damage, and his speed was slowed, but he did manage to get out of the spell encirclement.

'Damn Merlin, did he think I didn't notice that he wanted to trap me with spells? Such a fool, did he not know that Ghost Incarnation could offset physical damage? A complete Ghost Incarnation can ignore all physical attacks, yet he still used a material spell like Frost Spike. Such a fool…'

Pride flashed in Suval's eyes, but he wasn't as fast as before after being chilled.

A half-meter-long shadow finger appeared out of nowhere, and as Lin Yun extended his finger, that illusory finger appeared in front of Suval at a strange speed.

That illusory finger gave the feeling of drifting, but it crossed over a hundred meters in an instant.

It didn't feel threatening as it slowly appeared… It was just like a lover's caress, which would never make someone feel threatened.

Suval was sluggish to respond. He knew that no spell would be good in such a situation, yet that illusory finger didn't feel threatening.

It instead gave birth to happiness and warmth within his heart as if it was a ray of sunlight. Dodging would be going against his instincts.

Then, Suval had a strong feeling of loathing.

Happiness and warmth were mixed with loathing and disgust. The instinctive reactions of remaining still and quickly escaping were entangled and made Suval quickly go insane.

The left half of his body instinctively felt that it should remain on the spot and welcome that finger, but the death power of the right skeletal half was crazily surging forth on its own, as if tearing through his body.

And during that short moment of indecision, the illusory finger already reached him.

Suval's Ghost Incarnation instantly collapsed. Ghost Incarnation doubled his speed and allowed him to ignore physical attacks, but it had a huge flaw.

The effect of any non-physical attack would be increased by at least 50%!

Suval started screaming after his Ghost Incarnation collapsed. Light flashed on his left half, and even his old skin had a luster. The speed at which mana surged also sharply increased as if he was actually getting great benefits.

But the right half looked as if it had entered a pool of lava. The death power was flaring up, and the bones, which originally had a metallic luster, now looked as if they had been rotting for countless years. The luster rapidly dimmed, and fine cracks appeared on the surface of the bones. The soul fire in the eye socket also looked as if it was about to extinguish anytime.

The balance of Suval's body instantly collapsed, and as if to aggravate the situation, a ball of blazing white flames appeared on the right side of his body.

The skeletal half of the body was quickly covered by it, and it shattered the bones on contact.

It only took an instant for Suval's right half to turn into scorched black bone fragments, while the left half sank into a frenzied state. Blood spurted from the human half, and the organs touched by the blazing white flames instantly turned to ashes.

After less than three seconds, Suval's body was lost within the blazing white flames. As the flames dissipated, only scorched fragments were left.

On the other side, the Zombie Three-Headed Helldogs that had lost their master were easily dealt with by Lagulin and Barton, their soul fires cleanly devoured.

The wheel shadow behind Lin Yun slowly dissipated, and the Language Curse also ceased.

Lin Yun looked at the place where Suval disappeared.

Lin Yun had noticed from the start how strange Suval was. Not only had he been revived, but he was in a half-human, half-undead state, and his mana and death power were perfectly fused.

At that time, Lin Yun knew that ordinary methods wouldn't be able to get rid of Suval.

He confirmed this after Suval used Ghost Incarnation. Suval could truly be considered Undead, yet also Human.

Chapter 767: Earthquake

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

With the combined abilities of the two races, he was difficult to deal with. After sensing that Suval's mana and death power could transform back and forth, Lin Yun knew that an ordinary fatal injury would have no effect on Suval.

Unless he was destroyed all at once, that monster couldn't be killed.

The previous spells looked as if they were driving Suval somewhere so that he could be surrounded and annihilated. Everyone thought so, and even Suval thought so.

But no one had expected that this was all preparation to prod Suval into fully using Ghost Incarnation to escape through the path Lin Yun had prepared.

Those piercing Frost Spikes had also been meticulously cast by Lin Yun in order to numb Suval and make him think that being chilled a bit wouldn't matter.

This was all in order to reduce Suval's speed, because that last spell was a bit slow.

No one had noticed that the runes surging from the wheel had greatly exceeded what was needed to cast the spells he'd used…

It was because the majority of Lin Yun's power was used to cast another spell!

Touch of Life!

It was the spell that had appeared previously in the Night Valley after the heart had been roused.

It had no offensive use, nor any defensive use.

Its greatest effect was to lower the defense of an Undead being by one to ten levels!

If cast by a Heaven Rank Mage, under the prerequisite that the spell was comprehended to its peak, it could make the defenses drop by the full ten levels!

When used on living people, it could somewhat increase their mana's liveliness and sharpen their minds.

Unfortunately, Lin Yun suffered from the Language Curse and couldn't chant any incantations, so he had to spend a dozen seconds to gather runes from the wheel shadow to cast that spell.

And that spell was too slow. In a normal situation, it couldn't hit the terrifyingly fast Suval.

But a series of traps and encirclements made Suval jump into the trap.

Not only was his speed reduced, but to ensure that the Touch of Life would hit, Lin Yun even forced Suval to use Ghost Incarnation and increase the spell's power by 50%.

Then, he had that terrifying death.

Originally, it would have made the defenses of Suval's skeletal body drop from level 39 to level 36, but with the extra effect, it made his skeletal body drop to level 34.

Even if his mana wasn't weakened, his body already couldn't end up the surging death power… Especially since Suval was only half-undead. His body instantly turned into a mess, giving enough time for Lin Yun to release Starfire and burn his skeletal body.

With the skeletal body destroyed, the balance was thoroughly broken. And how could the human side withstand coming into contact with the Starfire?

What could be described as an undead monster ended up burnt to cinders.

All of this happened too quickly.

All the onlookers were stunned.

Elsa and the 2nd Elder had their mouths wide open. They couldn't understand what was going on and wondered how that monster could be burnt to death so fast.

Weiss stared foolishly, feeling stunned in front of that calm battlefield.

'What the hell? What's up with that spell? Heavens, Mafa Merlin is actually that powerful? Even a monster like Suval died at his hands?

'Ugh, I forgot to escape…'

Weiss reacted after seeing the blazing white flames dissipate. 'Suval was killed, and the Firerock Dwarves I brought were all captured. If I stay, I won't be able to escape the fate of becoming a prisoner…'

Weiss turned, and just as a wisp of mana surged from his body, an unhurried voice echoed in front of him.

"Sir Weiss, are you planning on going somewhere?"

Weiss raised his head and saw Lin un floating in the air with the shadow of a huge wheel behind him. A light was also flickering at the tip of his Draconic Staff.

And in the surroundings, a large group of Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen with terrible expressions were moving to surround him. Mana fluctuations surged from everyone.

Let alone the Ash Beastmen and Lin Yun's subordinates, even just the Dark Elves had two 9th Rank Archmage powerhouses!

'Damn, I'm screwed this time…' Panic could be seen on Weiss' face.

He promptly raised his head and said, "I surrender… I surrender, Sir Merlin, don't attack. I truly wish to sincerely cooperate with you. You also saw how crazy that lunatic was, he already went insane…"

The wheel behind Lin Yun slowly dissipated as he landed on the ground.

He glanced at Weiss and said, "What about Falton? What's going on with the Firerock Dwarven Clan?"

Weiss knew that it would do him no good to hide the truth. He might even be torn to pieces by the Dark Elves if this didn't go well. Moreover, there was nothing to hide.

"Sir Merlin, I was sincere earlier. Sir Falton is unimaginably powerful right now. It is true that you are strong, strong beyond my expectations, but you are still far from being Sir Falton's opponent.

"After we reached the God Nation, we immediately made contact with the Firerock Dwarves, and Sir Falton helped them excavate some ruins. He obtained a stroke of fortune and got all the benefits.

"At that time, Suval also resurrected into that monster. As for me, I only gained a few rewards and advanced to the peak of the 8th Rank. All of you together wouldn't be able to face Sir Falton."

Hearing Weiss bragging about Falton so much, the gloomy Zeuss could no longer bear with it.

In the battle against the Oracchis, he had been tricked by Falton and almost died to the Oracchis. Later, in the Intrepid, his clansmen also died because the monster impersonated Falton, leaving Zeuss as the only survivor, and crippled, at that. The resentment he felt was enormous.

"Where is that trashy dogsh*t Falton? Where? I'll tear him apart! This matter isn't over, the Black Tower shall await the reprisal of the Watson Family!" Zeuss roared.

If not for Xiuban holding him back, Zeuss might have already attacked Weiss.

Weiss glanced at the emotional Zeuss and smiled bitterly, but he wasn't afraid.

"Sir Falton already controls the entire Firerock Dwarven Clan. I believe the Dark Elves know about Jasker? He was the Firerock Dwarves' number two powerhouse, and he had already submitted to Sir Falton. The Firerock Dwarven Clan from top to bottom is completely under Sir Falton's control.

"Moreover, the most important part is that Sir Falton already obtained one of the inheritances from this world's greatest ruler. He is already an existence that can only be looked up to. He is now in some ruins at the peak of the Wisdom Tree. As for the details, I don't really know. I only know one thing. He said with certainty that once he came out of the ruins, he would become a Heaven Rank powerhouse." Weiss sincerely told all he knew.

As he said those last words, Lin Yun's expression greatly changed, becoming much more severe.

'Damnit, that wretched Falton is going to create a disaster!'

As this thought passed through Lin Yun's mind, the earth started violently shaking.

"Earthquake?" Xiuban exclaimed in fear, before seeing Lin Yun flying up while looking extremely displeased.

It looked like the entire Wisdom Tree was shaking.

Lin Yun frowned after using Eagle Sight.

He could see the domed sky crumbling everywhere. The huge branches were continuously collapsing and breaking due to some huge power.

The continents made of leaves and branches kept collapsing and broke apart into huge fragments falling towards the ground.

The shaking spread over hundreds of kilometers, and with Eagle Sight, he could see all the areas that had been broken.

The originally complicated and tangled environment had become much more open due to continents falling down.

The Wisdom Tree's several-kilometer-thick branches broke and fell, and the parts blocking their lines of sight disappeared.

Suddenly, in a distant place overhead, a large fragment that was dozens of kilometers wide started falling down.

A deafening rumble echoed, and after a while, they could see, through dust and debris, that the fragment had fallen ten kilometers, just to be supported by two thick branches of the Wisdom Tree. Moreover, the bottom of that fragment was also supported by smaller branches of the Wisdom Tree.

Thus, they had managed to avoid being crushed by the fragment.

"Hahahaha…" A deafening, booming voice echoed.

But even though the savage laughter came from a dozen kilometers away, it could be heard clearly in the Dark Elven Clan.

There was a wisp of Heaven Rank aura coming from there, and it could clearly be sensed from such a great distance. That kind of wild and unconcealed aura absolutely couldn't be mistaken.

Lin Yun instantly took out of the Book of Mantras, and lights slowly shone from it.

"2nd Elder, Flame Dragon, immediately gather all the Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen. Everyone has to be there! Hurry up, go as fast as possible!"

Chapter 768: Extraordinary Magic Tool

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

Lin Yun gave his order with a grave expression. This made the 2nd Elder and the Flame Dragon Warlord immediately feel the seriousness of the matter, especially when they felt the aura of the Heaven Rank in the distance. Even from such a distance, they couldn't help feeling somewhat powerless.

Lin Yun ground his teeth and used Flight to rapidly fly in that direction. Because he could already see that this huge fragment was actually the Firerock Dwarven Clan. There was a statue of a huge, square-shaped hammer over a hundred meters tall. And on top of the hammer was the sign of the Firerock Dwarven Clan.

Besides this, he could still some signs of activity within the clan.

After flying halfway, Lin Yun could see that the Firerock Dwarven Clan seemed to have suffered from a calamity. Although their clan hadn't been completely shattered, there were many cracks over the ground.

The buildings were continuously collapsing, and wails and shouts echoed throughout the entire clan.

Moreover, there was a figure floating above the Firerock Dwarven Clan, and it was none other than Falton.

But this time, Falton didn't have his patient and calmly enduring attitude. He was like a crazy villain as he laughed heartily while facing upward.

One after another, ripples spread from his body in all directions like tides. Elements were converging in his surroundings, transforming into small fairies of all kinds of colors, dancing around and cheering. The elements' activity had reached the extremes, and above his head, circles of elements converged into a rainbow.

Heaven Rank!

Falton had actually advanced to the Heaven Rank, making Lin Yun's expression become even more unsightly. The Book of Mantras in his right hand suddenly shone.

There were no leaves or branches blocking the way above the Firerock Dwarven Clan. There was only an enormous hole piercing through to the sky.

Falton kept crazily laughing, and his aura only stabilized at the Heaven Rank after the multi-colored fairies dissipated.

Then, Falton did something horrible.

He waved his hand towards the Firerock Dwarven Clan, and he gathered all the magic elements above them in an instant.

The powerful magic elements frantically converged and formed a huge, four-colored sphere of light that bursting with chaotic elements.

Then, this elemental sphere fell into the center of the Firerock Dwarven Clan.

Lin Yun's expression turned grim as the Dwarves all started trying to flee outside the clan in alarm.

Heaven Rank, that was the power of the Heaven Rank.

The sphere of light irresistibly fell to the center of the Firerock Dwarven Clan.

"Boom!"

The entire world seemed to turn silent at this moment, before a huge mushroom cloud rose in the middle of the clan.

The fierce elemental power formed an elemental storm, and with the Firerock Dwarven Clan as the center, it spread into the surroundings.

Countless buildings were shattered in mere seconds, many Firerock Dwarves and livestock were blown like dead leaves, sent flying in all directions after that shockwave. Most of the Firerock Dwarves were torn to pieces in midair.

The fragment spanning several dozen kilometers also started shattering, and a piece over twenty kilometers in length broke off and fell towards the ground.

Fortunately, the rest of the fragment didn't fall, but the ground was being overturned as if there was a huge Earthworm below.

A disaster had truly befallen the Firerock Dwarves…

The flames were burning, and the entire clan had turned into a sea of fire. There was a constant flow of Dwarves rushing out of the clan, but even more of them were unable to make it out of the clan.

Cracks over ten meters in width instantly swallowed everything above them as they gaped open before suddenly closing up and crushing everything.

Countless fragments fell down onto a flat area and formed a several-hundred-meter-tall hill.

The Firerock Dwarves that successfully escaped the clan only dared to turn their heads when the calamity began to subside somewhat.

The large hammer statue that symbolized the glory of the Firerock Dwarves had already disappeared, and over half of the clan had been turned to ashes. Only a part of the ruins could still be faintly recognized.

One hit!

The Firerock Dwarven Clan had been destroyed!

The remaining Firerock Dwarves bitterly wept and knelt on the ground in despair, and they could still see Falton hovering above the ruins.

"Falton! You b*stard, you fiend, how could you do this!?"

"Our Clan Head trusted you and treated you as if you were his own brother! How could you do this?"

"Demon! You are a Demon! You'll suffer the punishment of our God Nation for destroying our clan!"

"B*stard, you forgot who saved you! Our Clan Head trusted you so much, you can't even be compared to a Demon!"

"Kill! Kill him! That Demon destroyed our clan, we should kill him even if we die!"

The disaster had come so suddenly, causing the surroundings of the clan to start disintegrating and collapsing. Fortunately, their clan was situated on one of the biggest branches of the Wisdom Tree, and it was exempt from the danger of shattering.

But no one had actually expected that Falton would destroy the Firerock Dwarven Clan.

The Firerock Dwarves were going crazy. Regardless of their power, they all took out their mallets or grabbed whatever they could and threw them at Falton with terrifying power.

Wisps of lightning could be seen on the mallets, but the lightning from all the attacks converged together, combining their power.

It looked as if a kilometer-wide river of lightning had appeared, tearing through the sky as it charged towards Falton.

Falton kept laughing as he casually waved his hand, condensing a hand that easily covered over a kilometer of area.

The large hand swatted the lightning like it was a fly and made it scatter in an instant. Those countless lightning mallets were shattered into small pieces that fell powerlessly.

The giant hand didn't look damaged in the slightest.

"Silly midgets. Destroying your clan? Haha, you are overestimating yourselves, you are unworthy. Let me tell you, your clan is just that fragile.

"I only want the thing below your clan and your clan happens to be in the way. You fools dared to attack me, it looks like you want to be exterminated!"

Although Falton said that, he didn't look angry. Instead, he was smiling leisurely.

Falton controlled the large hand to go to the ruins of the Firerock Dwarven Clan, and the solid ground was parted like sand.

The hand firmly grasped the ground, and the earth started fiercely shivering. Then, the hand fiercely thrust into the ground and took out a several-hundred-meter-wide sphere.

That sphere seemed weightless in that huge hand. Suddenly the hand ruthlessly tightened its grip.

That sphere loudly exploded in an instant, and countless fragments flew in all directions. A small light appeared out of nowhere from the center of the sphere.

All the fragments dissipated, and only a small sphere of light emitting a glaring radiance remained in the hand.

Falton laughed heartily, a mix of excitement and self-satisfaction on his face.

"It was really here!"

The large hand brought the light back to Falton, and as Falton grabbed the light, a horrifying mana fluctuation wreaked havoc in the surroundings like a storm.

It was as if an elemental storm had appeared in the several kilometers around Falton, growing as time passed. The storm was connecting heaven and earth, and everything within it was torn to shreds.

Lin Yun, who hadn't arrived yet, let out a deep breath.

'An Extraordinary Magic Tool! Damn, it's actually an Extraordinary Magic Tool!'

Seeing this terrifying power, cold sweat trickled down Lin Yun's back.

Falton's laughter could faintly be heard within that terrifying storm. Lin Yun knew that this was the Extraordinary Magic Tool Falton wanted to control.

'This is the last opportunity! Once Falton has his hands free, no one will be able to contend against a Heaven Rank powerhouse with an Extraordinary Magic Tool.'

He would be able to destroy the Dark Elven Race and the Ash Beastman Race by himself, and even Lin Yun's group wouldn't be able to resist for more than ten seconds!

'Flee… This is the only method, we have to flee this God Nation.'

Lin Yun grabbed the Book of Mantras, and the light it emitted became glaring.

Lin Yun looked once more at the raging storm before steeling himself and focusing on the Book of Mantras.

The Firerock Dwarven Clan had already been completely destroyed, and the remaining Firerock Dwarves were frantically running towards this side. That terrifying storm was just like a natural disaster wreaking havoc. If they were just a bit too slow, they would be torn apart by the storm.
