One of the reasons was that Lin Li's own strength was far from meeting the requirements to control the debris of the stars. Although he was now a Legendary-mage and considered one of the few powerhouses in Anril, he was still only at the beginner level. In terms of comprehension and mastery of nomological power, he was only at the beginner level.
However, Lin Li was well aware that even if he reached the Sanctuary-realm or reached Geresco's realm, he would still not be able to fully exert the power of the debris of the stars. It was because the Stars of Fury was the only thing that could fully exert the power of the debris of the stars.
Back in the Endless World, Lin Li had obtained the debris of the stars as a Hunter, and his mastery of nomological power was far inferior to that of the present. However, he even had the ability to challenge the Dragon of Destruction because of the Stars of Fury. Using the debris of the stars alone was just using the basic understanding of the nomological power. However, with the Stars of Fury, the power of the debris of the stars could be truly exerted.
Hence, after seeing the power of the arrow, Lin Li could not figure out how the power of Thunderbolt could be exerted even though he could feel the aura of Thunderbolt. Lansdale was a Legendary Bandit who had been famous for a long time. Even a Sanctuary powerhouse would not be able to exert the power of Thunderbolt to such a level.
Could it be that someone has mastered the Stars of Fury? However, as soon as that thought arose, Lin Li immediately denied it, because if he had used the Stars of Fury, the power of the arrow would be too weak. The power that was neither good nor bad really made Lin Li a little confused, and he could not figure out what was going on.
Lin Li had been able to feel the aura of the debris of the stars, Thunderbolt, which seemed to be in the center of the vortex. However, the situation in the center of the vortex could not be seen at all because it was surrounded by countless lightning snakes and pythons.
Lin Li gathered a wisp of mental strength, and carefully probed into the vortex in a bid to see if the debris of the stars, Thunderbolt, was really inside, and if there was anything else apart from Thunderbolt. However, despite being extremely careful, he still poked a hornet's nest. That wisp of mental power had just come into contact with the edge of the lightning vortex. Before it could penetrate deep into the vortex, the entire lightning vortex immediately accelerated its rotation, unable to withstand even the slightest stimulation. Next, countless lightning snakes rushed out of the vortex and darted in all directions, and the powerful solidified magic was immediately activated.
Everyone was taken aback by the sudden change, but no one thought that it was caused by Lin Li. They thought that the guardian was getting impatient because they had stopped moving.
At this moment, the sky seemed to be collapsing, and the lightning flashed and thunder roared even more intensely. The destructive aura from Thunderbolt filled the entire world. The activated enchantment burst out with incomparably powerful Mana fluctuations, and the dazzling lightning illuminated the sky and earth.
In an instant, incomparably solid pillars of lightning, accompanied by rumbling thunder that resounded through the heavens and earth, fiercely bombarded the people on the ground to kill. Every pillar of lightning was condensed with terrifying power that was enough to turn an Archmage at the peak of the realm into ashes in an instant. The lethality of lightning magic was greatly demonstrated at this moment.
No one dared to hesitate for a moment. Even the Legendary-mages did not dare to use their own bodies to take on that terrifying lightning pillar. Everyone was immediately surrounded by various magical defenses. This time, Cheyenne did not dare to take care of the others. He could only take care of his own safety first.
Although Cheyenne was mainly responsible for the team's magical defense in the previous cooperation, it was obviously different now. The terrifying power of the lightning magic was far from what the wind elemental magic could compare to. If Cheyenne dared to use Group Defense Spells, he might not even be able to withstand a wave of lightning magic attacks. It was almost certain that he would end up in a miserable state.
None of the others complained about Cheyenne's actions. Everyone could sense the might contained in the lightning magic. Even if Cheyenne dared to take care of them, they would not dare to accept it. At this juncture, they had to take care of themselves. On the elves' side were Chief Elder Randy and Culofen, who used magic to protect the four elves. On Lin Li's side, he and Ujfalusi went all out. Although Norfeller was level-21, he was not good at magical defense.
Looking at the seemingly endless lightning pillars, everyone knew that a single layer of defense was far from enough. After everyone completed a defensive spell, they continued to cast layer after layer of defense spells at the fastest speed possible.
At this moment, the team that had almost become one through cooperation just now once again split up according to their respective forces. Judging from the current situation and their respective strengths, the Tower of Dusk led by Lin Li seemed to be in a much more difficult situation than the other two. After all, Lin Li was the only level-21 Legendary-mage in the Tower of Dusk, and Ujfalusi, who was only level-20, would not be of much help.
While continuously casting defensive magic spells, Elder Randy glanced at Lin Li worriedly. Until now, the guardian of the last realm had yet to appear. If the team were to suffer a loss of strength at this juncture, how would they face the guardian that was likely to be at the peak of the Legendary-realm?
However, when Chief Elder Randy's gaze landed on Lin Li, he was so shocked that he almost stopped casting spells. Although Chief Elder Randy already had an extremely high evaluation of Lin Li's strength, Lin Li's performance now still exceeded his expectations.
On the elves' side, Chief Elder Randy and Culofen worked together to set up more than 10 layers of defensive magic in an instant, which was already the limit of their casting speed. However, on the Tower of Dusk's side, Lin Li had already set up nearly 20 layers of defensive magic. Besides, in the blink of an eye, the defensive magic around the Tower of Dusk had already advanced to the 30th layer.
That was a terrifying casting speed that was almost close to instantaneous. He wondered what it would be like if it were used for an attack. Chief Elder Randy couldn't help but be a little shocked. He had never seen a level-21 mage who could reach Lin Li's level.
In fact, Chief Elder Randy even vaguely admired Lin Li, a young human mage who was only level-21. It was because he was well aware that the compression of the casting time could not be achieved overnight. It would definitely require a lot of hard work, and talent in magic would not play a big role.
Lin Li no longer cared about what others would think of him. His understanding of the power of the debris of the stars made him not dare to be careless at this moment. The debris of the stars, Thunderbolt, was the most powerful one among the seven pieces of the debris of the stars. Although the lightning magic was not a direct attack of Thunderbolt, the nomological power that they contained was definitely related to Thunderbolt.
The boundless Thunder and Lightning Magic arrived in an instant, and even the defensive magic cast by the Legendary powerhouses could not withstand the powerful Thunder and Lightning Magic for long. The deafening sound of thunder covered the sound of the magic defense collapsing, and the lightning magic was like a hammer that continuously shattered the fragile magic defense that was like glass.
Chief Elder Randy couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Lin Li's condition, and instead focused all his attention on casting defensive magic spells. Only then did he manage to catch up with the speed of the magic defense being broken. However, that did not mean that they were safe. The solidified magic in the sky was still being activated continuously, and the countless lightning pillars that fell from the sky were just a prelude.
At some point in time, there were already small golden suns hanging in the sky, just like plump fruits. However, the people who saw this marvelous scene did not seem to appreciate it at all. Instead, their hearts became much heavier.
Even if they were not mages, they could still feel the terrifying mana contained in the golden spheres. They had definitely reached the Legendary-level. The mages were no strangers to the golden spheres that hung in the sky, for they knew that they were the real Legendary-level Annihilation Thunderballs.
The dazzling golden Annihilation Thunderballs exuded a terrifying aura that seemed to be able to destroy everything, and the powerful mana waves caused the surrounding space to distort. Finally, as if it was time for the melon to fall, those World Annihilation Thunderballs swayed and slowly floated down from the sky. Compared to the lightning pillars that were still falling, the speed of the Annihilation Thunderballs seemed to be a little slower, but the pressure they brought to the crowd was far greater than that of the dense lightning pillars.
The falling Annihilation Thunderballs even attracted and devoured the lightning pillars that passed by, causing the power of the Annihilation Thunderballs to increase gradually during the process of falling. The incomparably domineering magic power did not let down the name of Annihilation at all, and it really seemed like it was going to destroy everything in the world.
"BOOM!"
The explosion of a Annihilation Thunderball instantly broke several layers of magic defense, causing the people in it to sway along with the intense vibration. The residual power swept through the surroundings, and even when it touched the magic defense of another force, it still had enough power to shatter a layer of magic defense.
Resisting the bombardment of a single World Annihilation Thunderball was not something to be happy about, because there were still more World Annihilation Thunderballs swaying in the sky and falling continuously.
The addition of the Annihilation Thunderball made it more difficult for the crowd to defend, but to them, there seemed to be nothing else they could do except passively defend at this time. If they wanted to counterattack, they would have to wait for the guardian to appear.
The only thing they could do was to grit their teeth and increase their casting speed to the limit again to replenish the layers of magic defense that had been destroyed. At the same time, they were hoping that the damned guardian, regardless of whether he was a powerhouse at the peak of the Legendary-realm or not, would hurry up and f * cking show up.
As though it had heard everyone's thoughts and been enraged by their stubborn resistance, the enemy that everyone was looking forward to finally appeared. However, it wasn't the guardian, but the wind elemental that everyone had encountered before.
More than 10 wind elementals appeared around the crowd, and immediately launched an all-out attack on them. The power of the magic spells cast by the wind elementals might not be as powerful as those solidified in the sky, but it made the magic attacks much more concentrated. The power of more than 10 wind elementals was not much of a threat to the Legendary powerhouses even though their attacks were annoying. However, what if there were more of them …
Electric snakes landed around the crowd, and after the thunder and lightning flashed, the form of the wind elementals was revealed. Although more than 10 wind elementals would not be taken seriously by the crowd, they were definitely a force that could not be underestimated. After the wind elementals, there were dozens of wind elementals, but the summoning did not stop there. The electric snakes that were mixed in between the pillars of lightning meant that a new wind elemental had been summoned every time they landed on the ground.
An emerald green ray of light shot out from the magic defense of the elves, and accurately hit a Annihilation Thunderball in the sky. The thunderball was immediately detonated in mid-air, and the violent explosion even affected a few Annihilation Thunderballs at the side. The loud roar overwhelmed all the sounds of thunder in an instant.
Although the melodious song could not be heard amidst the thunder, Lin Li knew that Princess Elune had once again used the power of the Song of Heart. Lin Li did not ask about the price of using the Song of Heart, but everything in this world came with a price. The Song of Heart was not an artifact, and even if it was, it could not be used freely. It could be imagined that Princess Elune would have to pay a high price to use the power of the Song of Heart.
Although the few that were detonated by Princess Elune's arrow were insignificant compared to the large number of Annihilation Thunderballs in the sky, it had at least bought some time for the crowd.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the crowd gathered together tacitly even though they did not communicate with each other. The appearance of a large number of wind elementals meant that the real battle was about to begin, and they could only have a glimmer of hope by working together like before. Otherwise, they would only be defeated by the enemy one by one, and all of them would be buried here.
The three forces withstood the endless magic attacks and moved closer to each other bit by bit. The distance that could usually be covered within a few steps seemed to be extremely far at this moment. Even though the terrifying bombardment of the Annihilation Thunderballs was temporarily gone, no one dared to delay the release of their defensive magic spells while moving.
The elves first gathered with the Tower of Dusk. The four Legendary powerhouses continuously cast defensive magic spells, and layers of light shrouded everyone. Although the defensive magic spells outside were still collapsing, it was still far from reaching the speed at which the elves could cast spells.
It was especially so for Lin Li, whose casting speed was so fast that it was dazzling. Nobody could hear what he was chanting clearly, and his casting gestures were like a blurry illusion. The only thing that could let others know that he was casting a spell was the Helios' Scepter that was flickering non-stop.
