Compared to Angelano, Lin Li's task was much more important. He had to repair the core of the Seal Array, which was the four Guru-level mageweath arrays. The four Guru-level mageweath arrays contained the power of earth, fire, water, and wind respectively, which were all the purest source power of the world. The power produced by the combination of the four forces was definitely earth-shattering.
Lin Li had been in Anril for several years, and had a wealth of adventure experience that far exceeded that of ordinary people. However, it was his first time seeing such a Guru-level mageweath array. Even with his attainments in mageweaths, he had no choice but to marvel at the ingenuity of the design of the four mageweath arrays. Through the connection between the mageweath arrays, the four source powers formed a perfectly balanced Elemental World. Even an ordinary powerhouse at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm would find it difficult to achieve. It was no wonder that the dragon corpse that was almost as powerful as a god could be sealed for such a long time.
Of course, at this moment, the four Guru-level mageweath arrays had already lost the vast and majestic aura that they should have. They looked like old men in their twilight years, struggling to survive with the intermittent flow of mana. The extremely weak power that Lin Li had sensed previously was formed by the convergence of the origin power generated by the four mageweath arrays. Hence, it was obvious that the four mageweath arrays were in a terrible state, and could collapse at any time.
Lin Li glanced at the four mageweath arrays, and quickly analyzed the situation of the four mageweath arrays in his mind. He then arranged the problems that he needed to repair in order of priority, after which he dared not delay any longer and devoted himself to repairing the mageweath arrays.
The first thing that Lin Li had to do was to stabilize the four mageweath arrays. Regardless of how much power they could exert, he just had to make sure that they did not suddenly collapse during the repair process.
The foundation of the operation of the mageweath arrays was the continuous flow of mana in the mana circuits. Once the supply of mana was completely cut off, the mageweath arrays would immediately lose all power. Generally speaking, even if the mageweath arrays ran out of mana to maintain their operation, they would not collapse. However, the four mageweath arrays were now severely damaged, and were being maintained by the intermittent mana. If the supply of mana were to be interrupted, it would be as though the string connecting the beads was suddenly broken, and the collapse of the entire mageweath array would be inevitable.
Hence, the first thing that Lin Li had to do now was to dredge up the mana circuits so that the mageweath array could maintain its current state and not continue to deteriorate. That way, he would have more time to fix the other problems in the mageweath array. Otherwise, if one mageweath array was repaired but the other three collapsed, the seal would still be useless.
Of course, Lin Li did not want to clear all the magic circuits at once, because that would be no different from directly repairing the entire mageweath array. What Lin Li needed now was to maintain the current state of the mageweath arrays. Hence, the first thing he had to clear was the basic magic circuits of the four mageweath arrays.
However, the Magic Circuit was not a sewer, and it could not be poked with a pole. There were many things that needed to be considered. According to the degree of damage to the mageweath arrays, Lin Li also had to control the amount of mana that flowed into the mageweath arrays while dredging up the Magic Circuit lest it backfire and destroy the already-fragile mageweath arrays. It was just like a person who was already extremely weak, and if he was suddenly given a large amount of nourishment, he might end up dying.
Hence, although it was just dredging up the Magic Circuit, it was also a test of ability. Lin Li had to have a very comprehensive grasp of the mageweath arrays, and formulate a comprehensive plan according to the damage of the mageweath arrays. To Lin Li, technique was not a problem, and the problem was time. It was really a race against time, and there was no room for negligence.
In order to save every minute and second, Lin Li directly activated the Space Robe on his body, and his figure continuously flickered in the large mageweath array, almost filling the entire mageweath array with his figure. Since he was moving at such a fast speed, Lin Li's hands moved even faster. He continuously took out various magic materials, and accurately added them to the mageweath arrays to repair the deformed and incomplete magic circuits.
Fortunately, Lin Li was now a powerhouse who was close to the peak of the Sanctuary-realm, and under Geresco's guidance, he had a very deep understanding of the world's origin power. Otherwise, even if he had a Guru-level attainment in the field of mageweaths, he would still have to spend more time and calculations to repair the four mageweath arrays at this time.
Now, with his deep understanding and mastery of the world's origin power, Lin Li completed the steps almost effortlessly when repairing the mageweath arrays. However, even at such a speed, Lin Li couldn't help but break out in cold sweat when he was about to complete the last step of dredging up the Magic Circuit.
Just as the first step of the repair was about to be completed, Lin Li rushed to the last mageweath that needed to be dredged up, only to find that the mageweath had completely dimmed. The extinguishing of the mageweath was not to be underestimated. The design of the Guru-level mageweath arrays was ingenious, and the structure was complicated. It was definitely the pinnacle of inscription, and any slight mistake could cause the entire mageweath array to collapse, let alone a mageweath that had stopped working.
At this moment, Lin Li really felt a little depressed, and he felt that all his previous efforts had been in vain. Once the mageweath stopped working, it would not be as simple as restoring the flow of mana and making it run again. It would also involve the adaptability of the other parts of the mageweath array, and so on. It could be said that a single problem would lead to a chain of problems that had to be solved. It was no different from building a new mageweath array.
However, it was only a fleeting thought in Lin Li's mind. He was not a person who would give up easily. Otherwise, he wouldn't have survived so many desperate situations. Soon, he pulled himself together again and carefully observed the mageweath that seemed to have lost all hope.
After taking a look, Lin Li discovered that although the mana in the mageweath had stopped flowing and caused the rotation of the mageweath to stagnate, there was still a faint force in the mana circuit that kept the mageweath from collapsing. The force was very strange, and it did not belong to the category of mana. Instead, it vaguely resembled the godly power of the Dragon of Destruction.
However, the current situation did not allow Lin Li to think too much. Since the Dragon of Destruction was sealed here, it did not seem unreasonable for the mana circuit to be tainted with a trace of godly power. Besides, Lin Li was very clear that even if there was a trace of godly power, it was too weak, after all, and could only temporarily prevent the mageweath from collapsing. Perhaps the mageweath would really collapse in a few seconds.
With that judgment, Lin Li dared not waste any more time. He waved his hands, and all sorts of magic materials were quickly and accurately added to the mageweath. Along with his movements, a faint ray of mana that emitted a faint glow gradually began to flow into the mageweath along the Mana Circuit.
Lin Li did not completely repair the mageweath, and merely allowed it to be supported by mana so that it could maintain the most basic state of operation and not collapse completely. There were more and more important problems in the mageweath array that Lin Li urgently needed to solve. Only by completely repairing the entire mageweath array would Lin Li dare to let the mageweath array start to operate fully and exert its full power. Otherwise, the resistance of the dragon corpse would completely destroy the mageweath.
Finally, with Lin Li's hard work, the four Guru-level mageweath arrays finally had a trace of vitality. Although there was no astonishing power, at least they would not stop operating for a short period of time. At this point, Lin Li could finally rest assured to repair the various functional problems in the mageweath array.
Of course, that did not mean that there was enough time for Lin Li to squander. After all, there was still a huge battle going on in the sky above Cage Island. Even if the Sky Castle had injured the dragon corpse, the injured dragon corpse was still not something that Zumar and the others could contend with.
At this moment, in the sky above Cage Island, apart from Zumar and the others, Connoris, Ujfalusi, and Norfeller, who had come out of the Sky Castle, were also fighting the dragon corpse. Although the three of them had yet to step into the Sanctuary-realm, and were not even considered pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses, they were not inferior to those pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses at all in terms of combat power.
Connoris had the perfect body created by Osric, and the various flaws in his body had been made up for by Lin Li using the Immortal King's technique. Hence, the strength of his body alone was already comparable to that of the ancient wyrms. In other words, the dragon corpse was the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction, and contained a trace of divine power. Otherwise, Connoris alone would have been enough to contend with it.
As a Lich who was at the peak of the Legendary-realm, Ujfalusi's mastery of Necromagic had already reached an extreme. Although the dragon corpse would not be harmed by Necromagic due to the divine power in its body, the Necromagic that Ujfalusi cast could also have a considerable impact on the dragon corpse. For example, the Undead Curses such as slowing, weakening, and loss of balance would have a considerable impact on the overall situation even if they had a slight impact on the dragon corpse.
As for the Vampire Norfeller, he transformed into a black bolt of lightning, and continuously attacked the massive dragon corpse. Even though the movements of the dragon corpse were not considered clumsy, and could even be considered rather agile, it was still inferior to Norfeller, who was known for his speed. The defense of the dragon corpse was too abnormal, and Norfeller did not suffer much damage from his attacks. If it had been an ordinary wyrm, it would have probably been sliced into pieces long ago.
Lin Li's three subordinates were of the lowest level on the battlefield, but their participation had a great impact on the battle. Besides, the dragon corpse had been severely injured by the Sky Castle long ago, which allowed them to stall the dragon corpse without being in as much danger as before.
Of course, Zumar and the others couldn't help but be shocked by the tyrannical combat power displayed by the three of them from the Sky Castle. If the three of them stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, the status of the Tower of Dusk in Anril would probably immediately catch up to that of the Supreme Council and the Brilliance Shrine, and become a superpower that surpassed the entire world.
In particular, Elder Zumar, who initially thought that it was already impressive enough for the Tower of Dusk to have a young Sanctuary powerhouse. However, he now saw three peak Legendary powerhouses whose combat power was not inferior to that of ordinary early-stage Sanctuary-realm powerhouses. Hence, the shock he felt was imaginable.
The young president of the high-level Sanctuary-realm had subordinates whose combat power was not inferior to that of a low-stage Sanctuary-realm powerhouse, and the Sky Castle that could severely injure the powerful dragon corpse. How could the tiny Tower of Dusk have such terrifying power!? After thinking about the power that the Tower of Dusk had displayed so far, Zumar couldn't help but shudder.
Although Elder Zumar believed that the power of the Illuminati and the Gilded Kingdom was definitely stronger than that of the Tower of Dusk, he would probably not have an easy time if there was a head-on conflict between the two parties. At this moment, his emotions could be said to be rather complicated. He hoped that the Tower of Dusk really had the ability to help him solve this predicament, but at the same time, he didn't want the Tower of Dusk to show even more power.
However, Elder Zumar soon didn't have the mood to think about those issues, because he suddenly discovered that the wound on the dragon corpse that had been severely injured by the Sky Castle was actually slowly healing. At this rate, it probably wouldn't take long for the dragon corpse to recover to its previous strength, which was definitely not good news.
The dragon corpse was the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction, and had divine power in its body. Rapid recovery was just one of its abilities. As for the wound on the dragon corpse's chest, the reason that it hadn't healed after such a long time was because it was caused by the debris of the stars. Although the attack of the Sky Castle was powerful, it did not have the special properties that the debris of the stars had. It was just a pure mana attack, and naturally couldn't stop the dragon corpse's wound from healing.
In the beginning, Elder Zumar didn't mention this matter in order not to distract the others. However, the others were not blind, and as the wound on the dragon corpse's body healed more and more obviously, they naturally saw the problem. At this moment, everyone was really a little flustered. Although there were three more powerhouses who were not inferior to low-stage Sanctuary-realm powerhouses joining the battle, there was one less high-level Sanctuary powerhouse. Once the dragon corpse fully recovered, would they still be able to survive!?
