Before the wind elementals could get rid of the slowing effect of the freezing, the Legendary powerhouses had already launched their attacks one after another. They were either attacking with magic spells or magic arrows, all of which accurately hit their respective targets. When the other wind elementals launched their magic storms, they were protected by the magic shields that had already been put up.
The most important and difficult thing to achieve in terms of cooperation was trust — unreserved trust in one's companions. Whether the most ordinary soldiers could leave their backs to their comrades would determine whether they could be considered a strong army or not. If a team could trust their comrades, the combat power that the team could exert would definitely not be simply the accumulation of numbers.
For Legendary powerhouses, most of the time, they would basically find their own opponents during battles, even though they could not be considered to be alone. When it came to cooperation, it was nothing more than attacking in different ways, and exerting the power of each Legendary powerhouse. When faced with the counterattack of the opponent, they would also defend themselves, and almost no one would put their safety in the hands of others.
But now, this team of elves and humans could be said to have achieved true cooperation in the truest sense of the word. They could trust each other, perhaps because they knew that everyone was tied to the same rope, and anyone who fell would be dragged down with them. Perhaps there were other reasons. However, this was a team with trust. Even though they had just started working together, they were not inferior to those who had been training together for many years.
The eight Legendary powerhouses had varying strengths. Although none of the dozens of wind elementals were in the Legendary-realm, they would probably enter a stalemate if they were to split up and deal with a few wind elementals each. However, now, everyone had their own duties. Those in charge of defense only focused on defense, while those who were in charge of slowing down the speed of the wind elementals were in charge of attacking one or two targets with all their might.
No matter how good the wind elementals' resistance to magic was, they would not be able to withstand the joint attack of several Legendary powerhouses. Basically, a wave of attacks would be enough to completely eliminate one or two targets. At first, the entire team seemed to be a little passive, but as the wind elementals were eliminated one by one, the efficiency of cooperation was quickly reflected.
Due to the previous conflict, the Dark Blade had withdrawn from the operation, which meant that the team had lost four Legendary powerhouses, which was about one-third of the team's strength. The elves couldn't blame Lin Li, but they still felt that it was a great loss to the team without the participation of the Dark Blade.
However, Elder Randy wasn't the only one who didn't expect it. Even Cheyenne couldn't help but be a little surprised. Without the participation of the Dark Blade, the team that had been working together without any gaps had instead exerted greater power.
Some might even think that since they could exert such power by cooperating, wouldn't the four Legendary powerhouses of the Dark Blade be even stronger? However, given the relationship between the Dark Blade and the Malfa Family, how could they really rely on each other? How could they put their safety in each other's hands?
After the Dark Blade retreated, the remaining three forces did not have any enmity with each other. However, they had no choice but to face a common enemy under pressure. That was the foundation of mutual trust.
After wreaking havoc for a while, the wind elementals that besieged everyone began to be singled out by the sincere team. Those that were singled out would face the powerful attacks of several Legendary powerhouses, and turn into ashes in an instant. However, they didn't notice this change, or rather, they didn't know how to deal with it even if they did. Just like before, they only knew to throw their strongest magic spells at them in a disorderly manner.
As the wind elementals were killed one by one, the density of magic on the battlefield also decreased rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the dark clouds in the sky had already dissipated, and there were no more thunderbolts. The huge Wind Blade that plowed gullies in the ground also disappeared with the dissipation of the last Wind Elemental.
Everything returned to peace, and the ground on the battlefield seemed to have been flipped over. The ravines were crisscrossed, and the scorched ground was dotted with sparkling crystals. Those were the elemental crystals left behind after the wind elementals were killed.
The Elemental Core was actually similar to the magical crystal of magical beasts, which was the condensation of magical elements. Although the Elemental Core was relatively rare, it was precisely the reason why its value was discounted even though the Elemental Core condensed the purest magical elements.
Since the Elemental Core only contained a single magical element, it could only be used on magic of the same element. Besides, the Elemental Core did not have the natural binding force that the magical crystal had. Hence, it was difficult to control the release of mana accurately and efficiently, and it would result in a huge waste when extracting mana. Hence, although the Elemental Cores here were all level-18, their practical value was not even comparable to that of a level-15 magical crystal.
After the battle ended, everyone just picked up one or two Elemental Cores casually as a collection. Lin Li asked his subordinates to pick up more, not because the Elemental Cores had any important uses, but because he only intended to use them as snacks for the baby Elemental Wyrm. Since they both contained level-18 mana, Lin Li was naturally more willing to feed the Elemental Core to Xiao Hua. The magical crystals he saved would be much more useful.
The Legendary powerhouses cooperated well this time, but it was their first time working together, after all. Hence, there would inevitably be some unsatisfactory parts. After such a cooperation, the relationship between everyone seemed to have been pulled closer. Before going on the road again, the few of them discussed the problem of cooperation again. This time, dealing with the Wind Elementals was actually more for the sake of getting used to each other.
However, the smoothness in front of them did not make them forget the arrow that had killed Lansdale. The worry in their hearts towards the true guardian of this realm did not lessen because of this.
With complicated feelings, everyone left the battlefield that was already in a mess, and continued to move towards the hinterland of the Sierra Leone Forest.
The only thing that made them feel fortunate was that the environment in the Sierra Leone Forest was no longer like the legendary Land of Despair. There was no poisonous fog, no swamps, and no mutated magical beasts. The Wind Elementals were the only enemy that they had encountered so far.
They did not move quickly, and would occasionally encounter a few Wind Elementals, but there were no more of the same scale as before.
There would always be an end to the journey. In the central area of the Sierra Leone Forest, the people who walked out of the dense forest stared blankly at everything in front of them. No one made a sound.
This was the central area of the Sierra Leone Forest, but it was also an extremely vast and barren land. There were no trees or grass at all, just like a forbidden zone for life. Compared to the scenery that they had seen along the way, this place really lived up to the name of the Sierra Leone Forest, and allowed them to slightly overlap the legendary Sierra Leone Forest with reality.
In the sky, the dark clouds that were as thick as ink were constantly rolling, and they seemed to be pressing down on their heads. The land that was shrouded by the dark clouds was dark, but the continuous flashes of lightning made the darkness instantaneous. Lightning pythons roared and shuttled between the dark clouds, and the sound of the thunder was deafening like the roar of a giant beast.
In the middle of the sky, there was a huge vortex that was completely formed by thunder and lightning, constantly rotating as if it was going to devour the sky. In the vortex, there were countless Thunder Snakes and Lightning Pythons that were jumping and intertwining with each other, making it difficult to see what was inside the vortex. There was only the boundless power that could destroy heaven and earth, and it made one's soul tremble.
However, these were just the surface, and the momentum alone was not enough to shock the Legendary powerhouses. What really shocked them was that they could clearly feel that there were still countless powerful Thunder and Lightning Spells solidified in the sky.
The solidification of magic was actually not very esoteric knowledge for Legendary-mages, and the most important thing was to rely on the understanding and mastery of Nomological Power. However, it was obvious that the deeper the understanding of Nomological Power, the higher the level of magic that could be solidified. For example, the Seven-Realm Spiral could not be solidified by those who had not stepped into the Sanctuary-realm. Hence, from the level of the solidified magic, one could roughly see the lower limit of the strength of the person who set it up.
The powerful solidified magic in the sky was not concealed at all, and they were all ready to be unleashed, emitting a terrifying and massive magical wave. World Annihilation Thunder Tribulation, God's Fury, Sky Devouring Thunderball, and so on … Just the top-notch lightning spells that everyone could recognize were innumerable, and there were even more powerful spells with even more powerful mana fluctuations, making everyone tremble uncontrollably.
Everyone's faces were beyond sullen. Even Elder Randy, who was the strongest among them, had turned pale and lost all color in his face. From the solidified magic, it could be seen that the person who could solidify these magic spells was definitely not far from the Sanctuary-realm, even if he was not yet in the Sanctuary-realm. Could it be that the guardian of this last realm was actually a powerhouse who was at the peak of the Legendary-realm?
Although they were both in the Legendary-realm, the difference in strength between Legendary powerhouses and those at the peak of the Legendary-realm was huge. When they were outside the Dragon's Cave, the Green Dragon King that they had encountered might not have reached the peak of the Legendary-realm, but it was already enough to make everyone feel despair. Even Elder Randy did not dare to make any moves in front of the Green Dragon King, and he could not even muster the slightest intention to resist.
At that time, if it weren't for the Elemental Wyrm that Lin Li was lucky enough to obtain, there would only be one outcome waiting for them — to be slaughtered by the furious Green Dragon King. Not to mention resisting, even escaping would be an extremely extravagant thing to do. In front of the Green Dragon King, even Chief Elder Randy was like an insignificant ant. At most, he was just a slightly larger insignificant ant.
And here, in the last realm of the Seven-Realm Spiral, it could be seen from the solidified magic spells in the sky that the person who had such an understanding of the nomological power was probably only a step away from the Sanctuary-realm. Even the despairing Green Dragon King might not be able to reach such a level.
Recalling the despair that the Green Dragon King brought him, and then looking at the solidified magic spells in the sky, Elder Randy felt bitter. When he was planning this operation, he was still full of confidence in his strength, and thought that with his strength, nothing could really pose a threat to him. However, was the successive encounters a punishment for his arrogance?
The people of the Dark Blade had left. Even if they didn't leave, even if they let go of their grudges and joined the team with complete trust, they probably wouldn't be of any use in the face of a powerhouse who was at the peak of the Legendary-realm.
In that case, it was really the right decision for them to leave! Elder Randy was a little regretful. Why did he continue to come here after seeing the arrow that killed Lansdale? However, it was already too late for regrets now. Since they had already come this far, they would have to ask the guardian if they wanted to leave.
After confirming the current situation, Cheyenne did not continue to look at the sky, and instead turned to look at Lin Li who was beside him. Yes, at this time, they could only pin their hopes on this young man. The Green Dragon King had brought despair to everyone, but it was sent away by this young man's pet, a little thing of unknown origin. Now, would this young man be able to bring about another miracle?
However, Cheyenne wouldn't know that Lin Li was already cursing in his heart.
Motherf * cker, just which pervert was it that actually caused such a huge commotion! Lin Li looked at the center of the Thunderbolt Vortex in the sky. Although he could not see the situation in the center of the vortex, he had already somewhat confirmed his guess. The so-called guardian of the last realm was probably not a powerhouse who was at the peak of the Legendary-realm, but an arrow …
Long ago, when the Legendary Bandit Lansdale was shot and killed by an arrow, Lin Li had vaguely felt a trace of familiarity from that arrow. That was the most important reason why he came to the Haiga Mountain Range — Thunderbolt, one of the debris of the stars.
However, there was one thing that Lin Li dared not be sure about, and that was that the power of that arrow was too ridiculously strong. Of course, that did not mean that the debris of the stars, Thunderbolt, was not that powerful. As a true artifact, the power of the debris of the stars was definitely not to be doubted, and Thunderbolt was the most powerful one among the seven pieces of the debris of the stars. It could be said that if the full power of Thunderbolt was exerted, killing a Legendary Bandit would not be a problem at all. Perhaps even destroying the Sky Castle would not be a problem.
However, the problem was that it was definitely not an easy thing to exert the full power of Thunderbolt. Lin Li already had three pieces of the debris of the stars, and could also use the powerful nomological power contained in them. However, what he could actually use was only an extremely small amount of the power of the debris of the stars. He was still worlds apart from truly exerting the full power of the debris of the stars.
