"Damn it, don't rush me!" Connoris scolded angrily. Actually, even if Lin Li did not say anything, this ancient deity knew that the situation was not good. But, so what? He was no longer the ancient deity from before. At the end of the day, he was just a pitiful soul that was sealed by Osric …
"I don't want to rush you …" Lin Li said as he stood firmly on the back of the Humerus Wyrm. He seemed to be in control of everything, but he smiled helplessly. "But the problem is that I have to rush you. Oh great Soul Trader, can you still do it? You're an ancient deity, and you can't even weaken the power of the Lord of Darkness? Where's your incantation written in the ancient demonic language? Can you just recite a sentence? You just have to weaken it a little. As long as you can weaken the power of the Lord of Darkness a little, I'm confident that I can create the illusion that both sides are injured … "
"Recite a sentence my a * s …" Connoris almost jumped off Lin Li's back. Damn it, what does this fella think the demonic runes are? Cabbages that can be sold by the pound? Although I was an ancient deity in the past, countless years have passed. Even the High Elves have become history. How can I still have the power I had in the past? If it was in the past, the Lord of Darkness would be nothing. As long as the Vanishing Dragon did not descend personally, I could kill the Lord of Darkness with just a finger …
"Really?"
"Let me think …" Connoris muttered softly before falling silent again. He was racking his brains to think of a way to deal with the Lord of Darkness.
"Damn it, I knew you were unreliable …" Lin Li cursed. He did not have any better ideas. He could only increase his mental strength to suppress the waves of mana backlash. At the same time, he drank bottle after bottle of the Seethe of Mana Potion as if he was drinking plain water.
The mana in his body churned continuously, causing Lin Li's organs to feel as if they were tumbling. Waves of dizziness and nausea came one after another, and the pain caused by the overuse of his mental strength felt like there were countless steel needles stabbing into his brain. For a moment, Lin Li even felt as if he was going to die. Those who had not experienced it personally would not be able to understand how terrifying it was to fall to the ground while using the potion to increase his magical strength and compressing his mental strength to suppress the bite of mana …
Time passed by. The Lord of Darkness was like an inexhaustible killing machine. Its sharp sword with black flames was like the Grim Reaper's scythe, constantly destroying Lin Li's Magical Domain. Countless lives were destroyed and countless lives were created at every moment. The two powerful Legendary powerhouses were fighting in a tug of war …
At this time, it was no longer a competition of who was stronger, but who could last longer …
Lin Li was almost invincible in the Magical Domain. As long as the Magical Domain did not collapse, Lin Li would not be harmed. The Lord of Darkness, on the other hand, had integrated the power of the Dragon of Destruction, and was an unimaginably powerful existence. In addition, the power of the Abyss of Tharlen was continuously channeled into the body of the Lord of Darkness through the stars. It was no exaggeration to say that the Lord of Darkness did not know how to write the word 'fatigue'.
This was a battle that was destined to last a long time.
Lin Li, who had the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction, could actually devour the Lord of Darkness at any time. After all, the Lord of Darkness was just a force, and even its body was supported by power. Once it met the body of the Dragon of Destruction, even if it was just a dragon horn or a piece of dragon bone, it could be devoured instantly, not to mention the dragon crystal that contained the Dragon of Destruction's soul brand. It could not be helped. From the moment the Dragon of Destruction sent its incarnation into the Abyss of Tharlen, this was destined to be an unequal relationship. The Dragon of Destruction was the main body, and the Lord of Darkness was the avatar. As long as the Dragon of Destruction was willing, it could retrieve this force at any time.
Unfortunately, Lin Li did not dare to do so now …
Mephistos was hiding in the dark, and could appear at any time by tearing open the void. The reason why he had not done so yet was because he was afraid of the Lord of Darkness. The Lord of Darkness must have some way to control Mephistos. Otherwise, with Mephistos' strength, it would not be so afraid of it.
Hence, Lin Li had to create the illusion that both of them were injured, and make Mephistos feel that neither he nor the Lord of Darkness had the power to pose a threat to it … Note that this was an illusion, and not a real situation where both of them were injured. The reason why Lin Li was not willing to send the last 100 Angels of Light and Dark into the battlefield was because once he lost this trump card, he would really fight with the Lord of Darkness until both of them were injured. By then, Mephistos would really be able to take advantage of it …
Lin Li had already drunk the 20th bottle of the Seethe of Mana Potion. As he touched the few remaining bottles in his pocket, Lin Li's expression gradually turned ugly. "F * ck, this is really troublesome …"
Just as Lin Li was hesitating if he should use the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction to engulf the Lord of Darkness before playing roulette with Mephistos, Connoris, who was on his back, suddenly jumped.
"I've got it, I've got it, I've got it!"
Ever since Lin Li obtained this hammer in the Eternal Furnace, he had never felt that this lying demon was so adorable. Almost at the same time he heard Connoris' voice, Lin Li's eyes became moist. All the words he wanted to say were condensed into one sentence at this moment …
"F * ck you, hurry up and say it!"
"…" Connoris was probably the only ancient deity who would be scolded in such a manner. After panting for a long time, he finally suppressed the urge to scold Lin Li back. Using a negotiating tone, he said, "I can tell you the method, but you have to promise me that you will never tell anyone about it. Otherwise, there will be no place for demons in the Endless Abyss to live …"
"What method is so powerful?"
"It's a demonic rune that has been passed down from the prehistoric times … In other words, it's the ancient demonic language that you often speak of. Even I'm not too sure who created this demonic rune. I've only vaguely heard from other ancient demon gods that the one who created this ancient demon god might be the common father of us ninety-nine ancient demon gods …"
"Are you sure it's not Mother?"
"F * ck, it's just a title!" There was a tinge of anger in Connoris' voice. It could not be helped. No matter how shrewd Connoris was, he would not let people joke about such things. After scolding angrily, the ancient deity continued, "To the demons of the Endless Abyss, this demonic rune is like a sharp sword hanging above their heads. Once it falls, all the demons of the Endless Abyss will be met with a disaster. As such, back in the prehistoric times, the 99 ancient deities had already sworn that they would definitely not spread this demonic rune … Alright, although I have already stopped acknowledging my identity as an ancient deity a long time ago, no matter what, I still grew up in the Endless Abyss. I do not wish for human mages to control this demonic rune and wantonly capture my kind in the Endless Abyss …"
"Alright …" After listening to Connoris, the expression on Lin Li's face gradually turned serious. This was probably the so-called homesickness. No matter how much time had passed or how the world had changed, that trace of homesickness in his heart could not be changed. Listening to Connoris' words, Lin Li suddenly thought of that familiar world and those familiar faces …
"I swear here that if I spread this demonic rune without permission, I will never be able to advance in the field of magic for the rest of my life!"
"That's more like it …" Connoris' voice sounded very satisfied. To a mage, there was indeed no more serious oath than this. Every mage desired to climb to a higher realm and possess stronger magical powers. To a mage, not being able to advance in the field of magic for the rest of their lives was more terrifying than death.
"What is this demonic rune? Can you just tell me quickly? If this drags on, I really can't take it anymore. What kind of medicine did that bastard Lord of Darkness take? He doesn't even feel tired after being besieged for so long. If this goes on, I really have to use the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction …" Lin Li touched his pocket. There were only two bottles of Seethe of Mana Potion left, and he was not in the mood to talk nonsense with Connoris.
"You don't understand the ancient demonic language at all. Even if I say it, will you understand? The only way now is for you to completely open up your mental strength and let me infuse this demonic rune into your mental strength. "
"This …" Lin Li hesitated for a moment. As a mage, completely opening up his mental strength could be said to be rather dangerous. If he was not careful, there was the possibility of being completely controlled. Even if the invader's mental strength was not strong enough to be completely controlled, it could still leave behind some traps that would cause the mage's mental strength to be unable to be perfected forever, and thus be unable to advance in the field of magic. Hence, unless it was someone he had absolute trust in, a mage would not completely open up his mental strength.
But in this situation, if he did not open up his mental strength and infuse it into the demonic rune, he would have no choice but to use the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction. Then, he would have to face the sneak attack of Mephistos. The most terrible thing was that he only had two bottles of Seethe of Mana Potion left. Facing Mephistos with the strength of a level-19 Archmage, Lin Li really did not have the slightest bit of confidence …
"Alright!" After Lin Li repeatedly weighed the pros and cons, he finally gritted his teeth and chose to believe in Connoris. After all, at this point, the options left for Lin Li were very, very slim. He could either wait for death with his eyes closed, or he could bet on his luck …
Lin Li did not like to gamble, but when it came to the crucial moment, he was more decisive than anyone else.
Once the word "alright" came out of his mouth, Lin Li did not give himself a chance to regret it. His vast mental strength was instantly opened up, and it was exposed in front of Connoris without any defense. Even Connoris, who was once an ancient deity, could not help but secretly admire this decisiveness and decisiveness …
Almost as soon as he opened up his mental strength, Lin Li could already feel an obscure thought surging into his mind like a tidal wave. Countless sounds, countless images, and almost endless information. Even though Lin Li thought that his mental strength was strong enough, when faced with this tidal wave of thoughts, he could not help but have a feeling that he could not contain it. Lin Li could not even distinguish what kind of information this thought contained. At this time, Lin Li could not do anything other than passively accepting the information.
The ancient Demon Language is indeed very complicated. As expected of an ancient language that is on par with the ancient Dragon Language and Titan Language … Lin Li passively accepted the information contained in the thought, and could not help but be secretly shocked at the same time. Although the ancient Demon Language was not known by the world, every knowledgeable mage knew that the ancient Demon Language was definitely one of the three most powerful ancient languages in the world of Anril. Every word contained infinite power.
If the High Elves Print was said to be the most suitable language to write magic spells in this world, then the ancient Demon Language, ancient Dragon Language, and Titan Language, which were even older than the High Elves Print, were basically born magic spells. In fact, they were even simpler and more powerful than magic spells.
These three ancient languages were the dream of every mage. Once these three ancient languages were mastered, all spells and gestures would become real decorations. Every word in these three ancient languages contained infinite power. Even a Legendary-level magic spell above level-20 could be easily described with a few words. What kind of concept was this? This was almost equivalent to the instantaneous release of Legendary-level magic …
And now, what Lin Li was learning was one of these three ancient languages — the ancient Demon Language!
Although it was only a short paragraph, it was enough for Lin Li, who was about to break through to the Legendary-realm. After breaking through to the Legendary-realm, he would have a lot of time to carry out research. As long as he was patient and meticulous enough, and with the guidance of Connoris, who was once an ancient deity, he could totally deduce the entire ancient Demon Language. When that time came, no matter how complicated and difficult a magic spell was, it would not be difficult for him.
For a mage who constantly pursued power, was there any more fatal temptation than this?
It was precisely because of this reason that Lin Li chose to open up his mental strength and take a risk that he was not confident in. If he lost, there would naturally be nothing left to talk about, and he would directly drag Connoris down with him. But if he won, not only would he be able to smoothly solve the problem in front of him, but he would also get a chance to learn the ancient Demon Language. Even the cautious Lin Li could not resist such a temptation.
