In everyone's opinion, Stephen was just seriously injured and on the verge of death, but Lin Li knew very well that the sword condensed by the Light and Darkness Domain had not only cut open Stephen's Soul-devouring Domain, but also extinguished his life. Stephen could be said to be no different from a dead person now. Even with Mephisto's strange and powerful power, he could no longer use Stephen's body to be reborn.
Lin Li could tell that if he insisted on keeping Stephen alive, Borg would probably risk his life to fight for him. Although he might not have to be afraid of the two Legendary leaders of the Dark Blade with his current power and Cheyenne's help, it was not in his interest at all. However, it was not in his interest to fight two Legendary powerhouses who had been famous for a long time for the sake of a dead man.
Under Borg's gaze, Lin Li nodded, and said, "Okay, you guys can take him away."
The mana on Borg's body converged slightly, and he strode towards Stephen. He reached out to pick up the unconscious Stephen and gave Lin Li a deep look. He then turned around and carried Lansdale's corpse on his back, and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.
As the people of the Dark Blade left, the remaining people also had to consider the path they should take next. Lansdale's death had already made them realize how much danger they would face if they continued on, but even so, no one was willing to give up at this time.
The guardian of this realm refused to appear, and apart from killing Lansdale with an arrow, he did not do anything else. In order to pass through the Seven-Realm Spiral, everyone had to take the initiative to look for him.
Looking around, they saw a faint shadow in one direction, which seemed to be a dense forest. Elder Randy did not immediately lead his companions in that direction, and instead asked for Lin Li's and Cheyenne's opinion. Of course, more importantly, he wanted to know Lin Li's opinion.
That was how the world was. In order to win the respect of others, one had to display strength that was worthy of respect. With the power of that sword, Lin Li managed to do it. Even though Elder Randy was the eighth elder of the Elven Kingdom and was extremely powerful, he could no longer ignore Lin Li's existence.
Compared to the previous realms, the space of the seventh realm was simply boundless. However, there was nothing strange in the other directions, and there was only a shadow at the end of one direction that seemed rather special in this empty world. After a brief discussion, everyone decided to explore in that direction, hoping to find the guardian of this world there.
Everyone rushed towards a certain direction, and the shadow gradually became clearer in their eyes. The distant end was indeed an extremely vast and dense forest. It seemed that everyone had found the right direction, but there was no trace of joy on everyone's face. There was only incomparable solemnity.
At the edge of the forest, everyone stopped again and looked at the boundless and dense forest. Even though this forest was no different from the forests that they had seen before, and the environment was even more beautiful than the Emerald Forest, everyone had an unshakable sense of creepiness in their hearts.
The Magician cast Warlock's Eyes, and the other professions also used their own methods to look down at the forest from the sky. Although they knew very well that no matter how careful they were, they wouldn't be able to escape if the arrow that shot Lansdale appeared again, they knew that there was no way they could escape.
The dense forest was full of greenery, and the forest was covered with grass and fallen leaves. There were some simple yet elegant wildflowers, and butterflies could even be seen flying among the flowers. There were all kinds of crisp chirping sounds coming from the forest, and from time to time, birds would circle in the forest and fly in and out of it. It was a refreshing and natural scene.
However, when everyone used various means to look down at the entire forest from the sky, Chief Elder Randy called out a name.
"It's … the Sierra Leone Forest!"
Elder Randy had a look of disbelief on his face. Although the forest in front of him was very different from what he remembered, it seemed to be similar to the Sierra Leone Forest when he looked at it from the sky.
Upon hearing the name that Chief Elder Randy called out, everyone couldn't help but be shocked. Regardless of whether they used Warlock's Eyes or something else, they carefully observed the forest again, and the look of horror on their faces became more and more intense.
In the history of the Dark Age, the Sierra Leone Forest could be said to have existed throughout history, and was an existence that could not be ignored.
During the reign of the High Elves, they imposed a tyrannical rule on all races, and any resistance would be ruthlessly suppressed. Although the most famous one was Highlord Osric, who was known as the Butcher, the other High Elves were not much more merciful than Osric.
For the countless rebels, death was sometimes not the most frightening punishment. On the contrary, it was more of a way to free oneself from suffering. For the High Elves, simply ending the lives of the rebels could not eliminate the intense hatred in their hearts. Hence, the Sierra Leone Forest officially appeared on the historical stage of the Dark Age.
The Sierra Leone Forest was a place of exile prepared by the High Elves for the so-called sinners. Of course, as a place of exile, they naturally couldn't choose a beautiful place with birds chirping and flowers everywhere. That wouldn't be a punishment, but a vacation for the criminals.
The real Sierra Leone Forest in history was not like what Lin Li and the others were seeing now. Compared to the beautiful environment now, it was like the difference between hell and heaven. At that time, every inch of the Sierra Leone Forest was full of decay and decay. Fresh green was an extremely luxurious color, and withering and dying was the eternal theme of the forest.
Once, in the Sierra Leone Forest, it was not the fragrance of wildflowers that filled the air, but a deadly poisonous fog. There were no clear streams or pools, only swamps that emitted a rancid smell and were filled with floating corpses. Of course, the miracle of life was everywhere. Even in such a harsh environment, there was life, but they were all fierce magical beasts that had been tempered by the harsh environment.
In the Sierra Leone Forest, there was no lack of danger. All kinds of dangers filled every corner of the forest, causing even the weeds to be stained with death and despair.
Throughout the Dark Age, countless leaders of the resistance movement of various races were exiled to this hellish Sierra Leone Forest after being suppressed by the High Elves. Moreover, it was not only to other races. Among the exiled prisoners, there were even a few members of the royal family who tried to resist the High Elven Queen.
Among these exiled prisoners, there was no lack of experts with extraordinary strength. They were also well-known figures in the Dark Age. However, no one had ever been able to walk out of the Sierra Leone Forest. Even if they did not succumb to the High Elven Queen, they would not be able to hold on for long after being exiled to the Sierra Leone Forest. They would go crazy in endless despair.
Most of the people present had not lived through that era, and it was impossible for them to really see the horror of the Sierra Leone Forest. Even Chief Elder Randy probably had not seen what the Sierra Leone Forest looked like with his own eyes.
However, there was no lack of description and condemnation of the Sierra Leone Forest, which was one of the greatest evils of the High Elves, in many historical records. After all, countless outstanding leaders of various races were buried in that place, as well as innumerable famous experts.
Hence, these people, including Lin Li, were not too unfamiliar with the Sierra Leone Forest. Although the environment of the forest in front of them was worlds apart from that of the Sierra Leone Forest. However, with Chief Elder Randy's hint and the help of the Warlock's Eyes, Lin Li could see some obvious landform features that were almost identical to the Sierra Leone Forest that was recorded in the historical records.
Without a doubt, it was the once infamous Sierra Leone Forest. All of a sudden, everyone fell silent, and the fresh and natural scenery in front of them seemed to have lost all color in their eyes. The last realm of the Seven-Realm Spiral was actually the Sierra Leone Forest that the High Elves used to exile prisoners. The meaning behind it was self-evident.
After a moment of silence, Chief Elder Randy asked for Lin Li's opinion. The departure of the Dark Blade had greatly weakened the strength of the team. If the Tower of Dusk and the Malfa Family were to withdraw at this time, there would probably be no need for the elves to continue.
However, ever since Lin Li entered this place, he had never planned to give up halfway. Be it for the debris of the stars Thunderbolt or the Sky Castle, he had to get through the Seven-Realm Spiral no matter what.
As for Cheyenne, he could not leave alone at this moment. Who knew if the Dark Blade would wait for him halfway and fight him? With the death of Lansdale, the Dark Blade's strength was greatly reduced. Although they were still stronger than the Malfa Family, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the relationship between the Malfa Family and the Tower of Dusk was getting closer and closer.
After what had just happened, there was no room for reconciliation between the Dark Blade and the Tower of Dusk. It was obvious that they would have to face the joint attacks of the two forces in the future. Instead of waiting for the two forces to join forces, Cheyenne believed that no one would let go of the opportunity to get rid of one of them first.
Although there were unknown dangers in the Sierra Leone Forest, Cheyenne did not want to give the Dark Blade a chance to attack him. He would settle the scores with them in the future. Besides, Cheyenne had more or less blind trust in his ally, Lin Li. Although he did not know what tricks Lin Li had up his sleeves, the more he interacted with him, the more he felt that he could not see through him.
Soon, the three forces reached an agreement, and chose a route to enter the Sierra Leone Forest. Of course, in the current situation, the so-called route was only based on people's understanding of the Sierra Leone Forest. They did not know if it was meaningful to avoid some dangerous places recorded in the historical records.
