Lin Li had reached the Legendary-realm at the age of 20. He could be considered a genius among geniuses in terms of talent in magic. Many people even compared him to Geresco. However, there was one thing that had little to do with talent — experience. In fact, Lin Li had been spending most of his time on magic practice to accumulate experience. Some of it was his own exploration, and some of it was from Andoine, Old Grimm, Apophis, and the others. These people could easily study magic for hundreds of years. Apophis was an old monster who had lived for more than a thousand years. In terms of combat experience, it was more than the experience of eating for many people. Battles between masters were also an important way for him to gain experience.
How could Lin Li, who had grown up this way, not know that witnessing a high-level battle with his own eyes was very important to improving his abilities?
The battle between the two Lords of the Abyss of Tharlen was undoubtedly of a high standard. To Lin Li, the benefits that this battle could bring would definitely exceed the magic techniques that he had studied for a few months.
Hutton, who was already prepared to die, wiped the sweat off his face. His body was already drenched in sweat. He looked at the two Lords of the Abyss who were fighting, and then turned to look at Lin Li, who was at the side. He could not describe his feelings. He thought to himself, Could it be that this is also part of his plan? If it is, then this person is simply too scary, be it in terms of scheming or strength.
Even if he could not be a friend, he should never be an enemy. Hutton thought of his good-for-nothing brother, and could not help but hate him. If not for the trouble that he had caused previously, this trip to the Abyss would have brought him closer to this Mage Felic. It seemed like he had to discipline that good-for-nothing fellow when he returned, lest he brought disaster to his family one day.
In the battle between the two Lords of the Abyss of Tharlen, the entire space trembled continuously, and the collision of energy produced ear-piercing explosions. However, in this continuous collision, Mephistos' green soul flame gradually melted like snow under the sun.
"Damn it, I can't accept this, I can't accept this!" Mephistos's roar reverberated through the entire space. It was only a few rounds of battle, but the soul flame on his body had already become much dimmer. He could not figure out why the Lord of Darkness would plot against him with a mere human mage.
Mephistos gathered all his power. His entire body was like a sun that emitted green light. Now, it was no longer a problem of harvesting. Facing the pressure of the Lord of Darkness, he had no way out. He could only fight with all his might to have a chance of survival.
"Roar!" The Lord of Darkness let out an enraged roar, not giving his opponent a chance to catch his breath. The sharp sword in his hand slashed towards Mephistos. It was a devastating strike, and the entire space seemed to be on the verge of being destroyed as it landed heavily on Mephistos.
Time seemed to have stopped for a moment, and then there was a loud bang. Mephisto's body was like a broken mirror, and it was once again blasted into pieces that scattered everywhere.
"Hutton, I'll leave those fragments to you. Use the Summoning Lamp to collect them all. Don't let a single one escape." Without waiting for Hutton's reply, Lin Li jumped onto the Skeletal Dragon and flew into the air. Then, he expanded the Magical Domain of Light and Darkness again.
Lin Li's tone was almost like a command. If it had been when he had just entered the Abyss of Tharlen, Hutton might have been displeased. However, after so much, Hutton had seen Lin Li enter the Legendary-realm with his own eyes. He had seen him plot against the two Lords of the Abyss of Tharlen with his own eyes. He could no longer feel any disgust towards Lin Li. This was the rule of the strong.
As soon as Lin Li finished speaking, a powerful mental strength rushed into Hutton's mind. Countless fragmented memories, as well as a mysterious and obscure spell, were clearly engraved in his mind.
This was the power of a Legendary powerhouse. Once a human entered this realm, it was equivalent to stepping into the realm of the gods. There were many methods that were simply unimaginable to ordinary humans. Just like what Lin Li was doing now, he directly used his mental strength to influence Hutton. No matter how obscure the incantation was, Hutton would be able to grasp it in an instant.
The moment the spell was imprinted in his mind, Hutton also released the Levitation Spell. He flew up like a huge bird, and the Summoning Lamp in his hand emitted a dazzling light as he chanted the spell. Countless soul fragments were faintly discernible in the light. Every time Hutton chanted a word, a large number of soul fragments would be absorbed into the Demon Magic Lamp. From afar, it looked like moths flying towards a bonfire …
This time, Lin Li did not have to put in as much effort to deal with the Lord of Darkness. In fact, with the ancient demonic runes provided by Connoris, there was no need for him to fight too much with the Lord of Darkness.
Dark clouds rolled above his head, and snowflakes fell from the sky. In the blink of an eye, Lin Li's surroundings became a world of ice and snow. The snowflakes gathered and wriggled as if they were alive. Angels of Light and Dark with black and white wings appeared beside Lin Li one by one. Their bodies had two completely opposite auras of light and darkness, but they were integrated so naturally that it did not seem out of place.
Just like before, Lin Li raised the magic staff in his hand high up, and hundreds of Angels of Light and Dark swarmed forward, entangling the Lord of Darkness on the spot. As the Lord of Darkness roared in anger and despair, Lin Li slowly chanted the 18 ancient demonic runes.
"Roar!" The Lord of Darkness roared angrily. It did not know what the human opposite it had done, but it lost control of the power in its body again. No matter how it tried, it could not mobilize a single bit of power.
"I say, Connoris, hurry up and say something. How do we store this fella into the Dragon Crystal of the Dragon of Destruction?" Lin Li urged Connoris while maintaining the Magical Domain.
"Don't rush, don't rush, I'll tell you now," Connoris said quickly. At the same time, he used his mental strength to wrap a demonic rune and send it into Lin Li's sea of consciousness. Creating a clone and letting it do some things on its behalf was not the exclusive right of the Dragon of Destruction. Connoris and the other ancient deities often used their clones to move around in Anril. They even participated in wars that could change the world and reap benefits for themselves. Hence, it was not difficult to guide the clone back to the main body.
At this moment, the Lord of Darkness was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Its four hooves were tied up and placed on the chopping board, waiting for the knife to cut its throat. Lin Li took out the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction, and chanted the demonic runes that he had just learned. The magical crystal that was originally as inconspicuous as a rock gradually emitted a faint glow.
"Roar!" The Lord of Darkness seemed to have sensed something, and instinctively struggled to avoid the sharp knife that was about to cut its throat. Perhaps after tens of thousands of years, it would really be able to have its own independent consciousness and become a clone of the Dragon of Destruction. Unfortunately, it only had a trace of instinct now. In the face of the attraction from the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction, it could not produce any substantial resistance at all. With a sorrowful cry, the body of the Lord of Darkness collapsed, and it completely lost its human form. It turned into a ball of black energy that flew towards the magical crystal in Lin Li's hand.
Hutton landed on the ground and raised his head with his mouth wide open. He looked at Lin Li who was in mid-air in shock. He had already kept all of Mephisto's soul fragments into the Summoning Lamp. He was just about to see how Lin Li was going to deal with the Lord of Darkness, but he did not expect to see such a shocking scene in front of him. The unknown stone in Lin Li's hand swallowed the Lord of Darkness like a whale sucking in water. The ferocious Lord of Darkness did not have the slightest bit of resistance.
Finally, the last bit of the Lord of Darkness' power was also absorbed into the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction. That piece of stone that was emitting a faint glow also returned to its original appearance. Apart from its ugliness, there was nothing special about it.
"Can this thing really incubate a fellow like Tutankhamun? How did the Immortal King become a nanny back then?" Although he knew that Connoris would not lie to him, Lin Li still could not imagine the scene of two dragons hatching from such a stone.
"Oh, oh, I like the name 'nanny'. Of course, the Immortal King did not provide milk, but mana and mental strength." Connoris yelled, and continued, "In order to hatch the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction, the amount of mana and mental strength required is extremely large. In terms of mana, we can use other magical crystals to replace it, but it's not too much. About 100 Legendary-level magical crystals will do."
"100 … That's not too much …" Lin Li almost choked on his saliva. Was a Legendary-level magical beast that easy to deal with? Even if he could deal with Legendary-level magical beasts, where could he find more than 100 of them? The Summoning Lamp given by the Brilliance Shrine was already a huge consumption of magical crystals. Now, there was another magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction, and it was a Legendary-level magical crystal. It was like a bottomless pit. "Be content.
"Be content. Think about the power of the Dragon of Destruction and Tutankhamun who sent you here. A hundred Legendary magical crystals are really nothing," Connoris said, feeling that it was easy for him to say that.
"Alright, it's not that much anyway. Go on. What else?" Lin Li knew that Connoris was speaking the truth, so he could only resign himself to fate.
"I've just mentioned the requirements for mana. As for mental strength, you have to bear it yourself. Use your mental strength to slowly awaken the Soul Brand in the magical crystal. Through pure mental communication, let it develop a sense of dependence and closeness to you. This cannot be replaced by others. After all, you don't want to work for others, right? " Connoris had only seen the incubation of the Dragon of Destruction's magical crystal in the Immortal King's diary. He was rather interested in seeing the process and results of the incubation.
"Just now, I talked about mana. As for mental strength, you have to bear it yourself. The best way is to always carry this magical crystal with you. That way, every time you use your mental strength to cast a spell, the magical crystal will be bathed in your mental strength fluctuations. In this process, you will have a pure mental communication with the magical crystal. The Soul Brand in the magical crystal will slowly be awakened, and it will develop a sense of dependence and closeness to you. Of course, this is the work of grinding a stone with water. It can't be done in a day or two. "
"So troublesome …"
"In this incubation process, as your mental strength and the Soul Brand in the magical crystal communicate, you will obtain the knowledge, experience, and Laws contained in it. Of course, how much you can obtain depends on how strong your mental strength is. At the same time, the strength of your mental strength will also affect the successful incubation time. Back then, the Immortal King took 100 years. As for you … "At this point, Connoris recalled the scene when he directly sent the demonic runes into Lin Li's mind. He had not seen the Immortal King's mind or Geresco's, but Lin Li's mental strength was definitely the strongest he had ever seen. As for whether Lin Li could surpass the Immortal King and Geresco, it was really something to look forward to.
Lin Li put the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction back into the Ring of Endless Storm. This incubation process was the work of grinding a stone with water, and did not depend on this short period of time. The most important thing now was how to find the Throne of Darkness and leave this place. Of course, before leaving, he could not let the good things in here continue to gather dust.
"Do you know where the Throne of Darkness is?" Lin Li looked into the distance, but in this world formed by the void and stars, everywhere looked the same. It was as if there was no end. God knew where the Throne of Darkness was.
"The so-called Throne of Darkness is actually this world, this world formed by the void and stars," Connoris said.
"Damn it, I was wondering why I couldn't find a chair. Which idiot came up with this name? How could he call this place a throne? Who would have such a big butt …" Lin Li cursed in dissatisfaction. No wonder he saw the Lord of Darkness standing there the moment he entered. It turned out that there were no seats for him to sit on.
"Uh … This space was created by the Dragon of Destruction for his clone. In here, the Lord of Darkness' ability will be greatly enhanced, and other demons will be suppressed to a certain extent. Hence, as long as the Lord of Darkness is in this space, he is almost invincible in the entire Abyss of Tharlen. Other than the fall of the Dragon of Destruction, which weakened the power of the Lord of Darkness, you were able to fight against the Lord of Darkness previously because you have your own Magical Domain. This is equivalent to opening up a small world in this world that is completely under your control. This reduces the influence of the Dragon of Destruction to the lowest, "Connoris explained.
Indeed, "in my territory, you have to listen to me." This is the power of the Magical Domain. Lin Li thought, and then asked, "How do we get out?"
"Since the Dragon of Destruction has fallen, this space now exists because of the Lord of Darkness. As long as the Lord of Darkness disappears, this space will naturally collapse and disappear."
"F * ck! Why didn't you say so earlier!? " Lin Li was shocked upon hearing this explanation. He hurriedly said, "Then what about the treasures below? When will this space be finished? I have to hurry and keep those things." No matter what, he was now the President of a guild. The Tower of Dusk was a gold-eating machine. Concocting potions could earn him money, but he couldn't just hide in the pharmaceutical lab and do nothing all day long. If he could obtain these treasures, he would not have to worry about money for a long time. He could focus on strengthening his magic cultivation and do what he wanted to do.
"Don't worry, I have been eyeing these treasures for a long time. The solution has been around for thousands of years." Connoris smiled proudly.
