Even though Lin Li had drunk the All-Knowing Potion and temporarily possessed Legendary-level powers, he still did not have his own Magical Domain. This was because he had only become a Legendary-mage for a short period of time, so short that he did not have the chance to perfect his own magic system.
However, it was different for a Lich. A Lich that had lived for 1,300 years had enough time to complete all this. Such a long period of time was enough for a Lich to refine his own magic system, and finally form his own unique Magical Domain.
When the Lich released its Magical Domain and appeared in front of everyone, Adelo was in complete despair …
This was a Magical Domain that even the Iceblast could not break through. Did that young mage Felic still have a chance?
"I have to admit that you're the strongest human I've seen in the past 1300 years. To be able to compress a 10-second Frost Roar chant into a second, even if it was 1300 years ago, you could still be considered an outstanding mage. But it's a pity that everything ends here. Frost Roar, will be the last spell you'll ever cast in your life …"
The Lich's voice seemed to come from the depths of hell. It was hoarse and sinister, and sent a chill down one's spine upon hearing it …
After the Lich released its Magical Domain in the sky, it was not in a hurry to attack. It only stared at Lin Li with its cold eyes, as if it wanted to see clearly what this human mage that it had been fighting with for so long looked like.
The Lich was not in a hurry to attack because it knew that victory was already in its hands.
The level-18 Iceblast was one of the most powerful spells among the hundreds of Archmage-level spells. When it was completely unleashed, its power was close to that of a Legendary-level spell. However, after this terrifying power, it required 10 seconds of recitation. Even a Legendary-mage could only rely on near-perfect spellcasting techniques to compress this 10-second recitation time to about five seconds.
However, just now, that human mage had used a method that was almost instantaneous, and had cast this spell that required 10 seconds of recitation.
To the Lich, this almost impossible method of casting a spell was a last-ditch struggle. Only weaklings who were at the end of their ropes would use such a pitiful method to grab onto that last straw.
Everything that happened afterward proved that the Lich's guess was right.
After releasing the Iceblast, that human mage's mana had obviously become chaotic. The magical wave was abnormally intense, just like a pot of boiling water. A veteran mage like the Lich who had lived for more than 1,300 years could naturally tell that this was a sign of mental exhaustion, and a sign that he had lost control of his mana. To a mage, mental strength and mana were everything, and were even more important than one's mouth and hands. Once he lost control of these two powers, a mage who controlled the mysterious elemental power would be no different from a farmer with a hoe.
Although the Magical Domain had cost him, it was too insignificant compared to the human mage who had lost control of his mana. Although he had to pay, the price, it was a little time. All he needed was time, while the mage who had lost control of his mana was destined to die.
Hence, the Lich was not anxious at all. He only floated quietly in the sky, and looked at the human who had forced him out of the Magical Domain.
"Hehe …" The young mage suddenly laughed, and there was an incomprehensible calmness in his laughter. "Mr. Lich, your Magical Domain is indeed powerful. Even the Iceblast can be broken in an instant …"
"There is nothing strange about that. After all, humans are just a lowly race. How could they compare to a real High Elf in terms of magic? If it wasn't for the 1300 years of imprisonment that prevented me from improving my magic further, I could have killed you with a single finger. "
"You'd have to be able to live for 1,300 years first …" Lin Li pursed his lips, not taking the Lich's words seriously at all. When he looked at the black figure in the sky, there was no trace of panic in his eyes. "Alright, Mr. Lich, we're not new magic apprentices anymore. There's no point in pretending. If you had the ability to kill me with a finger, I would have been lying here long ago."
At this point, Lin Li paused for a while, and then said with a smile, "The only thing that I am curious about is, why did you wait until the Iceblast to release your Magical Domain?"
"…" Lin Li was answered with silence.
However, it did not matter to Lin Li whether he was silent or not, because he did not expect to get an answer when he asked this question. He smiled calmly, and answered his own question. "Since Mr. Lich is not willing to answer, let me guess. The Magical Domain that you possess can break the Iceblast in an instant. I am afraid it is not as simple as an ordinary Magical Domain. Seeing how cautious you are, I am afraid that you have to pay a price to activate it. As for what the price is, it is not difficult to guess. For a mage, the biggest price is nothing more than mana and mental strength. You definitely do not lack mana. Since you have endured such a long and intense battle, you would definitely not be stingy with your mana. Then, there is only one answer — you have to expend a lot of mental strength to activate this Magical Domain …"
It was eerily quiet in the cave. Other than the breathing of the advance party, only Lin Li's voice could be heard.
"That's right, that Iceblast really made me lose control of my mana. But what about you, Mr. Lich? I'm afraid you don't feel too good now. You've consumed a lot of your mental strength and can't control your own power anymore, right? Otherwise, I am afraid you would not be in the mood to talk so much to me … "
"Hahahaha …" The Lich who had been silent for a long time suddenly laughed. "Human, you are indeed the strongest human I have seen in the past 1300 years. Be it in terms of strength or intelligence, you are much stronger than others of your kind. Your analysis just now was not wrong at all. It was as if you had seen everything with your own eyes. To be honest, I still can't believe that all of this was analyzed by you from a small clue …"
"You are too kind, Mr. Lich …" After Lin Li bowed politely to thank the Lich, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he said in a sarcastic tone, "Are you going to say that unfortunately, my good luck ends here?"
"That's right, unfortunately, your good luck ends here, hahahaha …" Just as the Lich raised his Skeletal Staff and everyone closed their eyes in despair, that laughter that sounded like the cry of an owl was suddenly cut off. Then, they heard an angry roar from the sky. "Despicable!"
Then …
The 11 members of the advance party saw a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives …
This Necromancer, who had already broken through to the Legendary-realm 1,300 years ago and possessed a powerful Magical Domain, actually fell from the sky in front of everyone. In the process of falling, this powerful Mr. Lich waved his arms in despair and let out a blood-curdling scream …
Unfortunately, all of this was meaningless. No matter how powerful a mage was, if he lost the support of magic, he would not be able to resist the gravity of the earth. This was the most basic rule of this world. Even a powerhouse who had reached the Legendary-realm would not be able to escape from this rule.
"Bam …"
A dull sound reverberated in the cave for a long time …
Reality told us that even a Lich with terrifying power would not fare much better than a farmer holding a hoe when falling from a height of a few hundred meters. Perhaps the only difference was that the farmer would be badly mutilated, while the Lich would only break his own body into pieces …
The whole world seemed to have quietened down. At this moment, the 11 members of the advance party did the same thing at the same time. They rubbed their eyes with all their might, trying to prove that everything was just an illusion.
But no matter how much they rubbed their eyes, the truth would never change.
The force of falling from a height of a few hundred meters had completely shattered the Lich's body. Piles of rotten flesh, rotten bones, and pale white internal organs — these were all that a Lich who had lived for 1300 years and mastered Necromagic left behind …
Of course, in theory, the Lich was not completely dead. It was only his body that had died. His Soul Brand was still preserved in the phylactery. Perhaps after a few hundred or even a thousand years, the Soul Brand in the phylactery would awaken again, and revive this Lich who had died in such a ridiculous manner.
Unfortunately, this Mr. Lich's luck was too bad …
To be honest, he was not even as good as Ujfalusi in this aspect. At least, Lin Li still did not know where Ujfalusi's phylactery was hidden. But what about this Mr. Lich? Lin Li did not even need to guess to know that his phylactery must be hidden in that altar. Otherwise, he would not have been able to borrow the power of Gloomy Dark.
"Actually, I also wanted to say that it's a pity that your luck ends here." After saying that, Lin Li shook his head regretfully. "It's not a good habit to steal other people's lines …"
Then, Lin Li turned back to look at the Humerus Wyrm that had been forgotten by everyone …
This was indeed a ridiculous battle. The Lich that had fallen to his death, and the Humerus Wyrm that had been forgotten — all of this was like an absurd comedy. It was so ridiculous that one could not help but burst out laughing.
