"I remember that after I became Osric's servant, Osric came to the abyss alone, and mentioned something about the 72nd floor of the abyss." The Fire Demon King did not want to die with Lin Li and the rest, so he mustered his courage to interrupt.
However, this time, the Fire Demon King did not get reprimanded by Lin Li and Connoris. Instead, they started to think about it.
"I don't remember coming here with Osric. Did he come here alone?" Angelano had participated in Osric's raid in the abyss, but he did not go deep into the 72nd floor of the abyss.
"Alone? This is the 72nd floor of the abyss, the territory of Tyrant Balak. There are countless powerful Zago Demons here. Osric couldn't have come here alone to discuss business with Balak, right? " Although Lin Li already knew that Osric was the disciple of the Immortal King, it was still unbelievable that he could enter the 72nd floor of the abyss alone.
Connoris had said that although Tyrant Balak lived in the 72nd floor of the abyss, he was definitely one of the top few among the 99 ancient deities who created the endless abyss. The abyss was equivalent to the territory of the ancient deities, and Tyrant Balak's strength would be greatly enhanced in the abyss. When Lin Li was fighting with the Lord of Darkness in the Throne of Darkness, he only used an ancient demonic rune that Connoris had told him to mobilize the power of the abyss and suppress the Lord of Darkness. It was obvious how powerful the real ancient deities were in the abyss. They were like gods in this abyss.
Moreover, in addition to being able to mobilize the infinite power of the abyss, the endless army of Zago Demons was not something that anyone could handle. The Sickle Black-armored Demons reproduced extremely quickly, the vicious Hell Pythons, the Scourged Ankylodons that could split Wyrms apart, and the domineering Mammoth Behemoths were all terrifying and powerful Zago Demons. Under the command of the Zago Lord with infinite wisdom, even a real Sanctuary powerhouse would not be able to avoid the possibility of death.
Osric entered this place alone? Is he a god!? Lin Li really could not imagine what it would be like to face all of this alone. Perhaps even the powerful Dragon Aspect would not be able to avoid suffering.
"When did you say that Osric came here alone?" Angelano asked the Fire Demon King.
"It's something that happened not long after I followed him. By the way, didn't I fight with Amatir? It was about a month or two after that." The lifespan of the Fire Demon King was almost infinite, and he was not very sensitive to the passage of time. Fortunately, he remembered something that could be regarded as a landmark.
"Wait, I remember now. It was during that period of time that the magical crystal I wanted appeared in Osric's hands. Could it be …" Angelano did not dare to continue. Although he was the first to follow Osric, even he dared not believe Osric's true abilities if his conjecture was true.
"Could that magical crystal belong to Tyrant Balak?!" Lin Li and Connoris exclaimed in unison. Even though he found it hard to believe, when he put all the pieces of information together, this seemed to be the only explanation that made sense.
Just as Lin Li and Connoris were making all sorts of guesses, the situation on the battlefield had become very pessimistic. The Black Current formed by countless Sickle Black-armored Demons and the 100-meter-long Hell Pythons had already brought unprecedented pressure to the crowd. The appearance of the Scourged Ankylodons had increased the pressure by several folds, pushing the crowd to their limits. However, this wasn't the limit of the Zago Demons. The mountain-like Mammoth Beasts were getting closer and closer. A trace of despair was already growing in everyone's hearts uncontrollably.
Rosen, who was being taken care of by the Zago Lord, had to face the siege of six Hell Pythons and four Scourged Ankylodons alone. Even as a level-23 Legendary-mage, it was rather thrilling to deal with them. The weakness of Rosen's Elemental Domain was also exposed. The magic storm that filled the entire domain was rather effective against the Sickle Black-armored Demons and Hell Pythons, but it was like a tickle to the Scourged Ankylodons.
If it was a perfect Elemental Domain, the mage in the domain would be able to instantly cast all elemental spells below his level. For example, if Rosen was level-23, the magic storm in the domain would be made up of level-22 Legendary-level elemental spells. At this stage, Rosen could basically be said to be invincible. At the very least, he could guarantee that he would not be defeated.
Unfortunately, a person's energy was limited, after all. Rosen was too ambitious and wanted to understand the four basic elemental rules at the same time. In the end, he had a certain level of understanding of each element, but not a deep understanding of any of them. The magic storm that filled the Elemental Domain was made up of elemental spells below the Legendary-level. How could it cause harm to the powerful demons like the Scourged Ankylodons?
Damn it, did these Zago Demons take the wrong medicine!? Seeing that there were a few more Scourged Ankylodons flying towards them, Rosen, who was already in a sorry state, felt like dying. Until now, he still did not understand why he attracted so many insects. After all, the number of Zago Demons dealing with him was almost half the number of Zago Demons that Andoine and the rest had to deal with.
Gritting his teeth, Rosen seized the opportunity, and took out the Wyrm Staff again with a sullen face. It had been quite some time since he last used it, and the two huge gems on the staff were shining brightly again. However, Rosen's original plan was to use the Wyrm Staff to defend against Lin Li. Now, it seemed that if he could not get through this, he would not have to think about anything else in the future.
With two deafening dragon roars, two ancient wyrms, one gold and one silver, appeared beside Rosen. The massive Menace of the Dragon instantly crushed the countless Scythe Black Armored Demons around him into pieces. The golden wyrm spat out a mouthful of dragon breath, and the two Hell Pythons that dared to spit at it instantly turned into ashes. As for the silver wyrm, it immediately pounced towards the Scourged Ankylodons, and in the blink of an eye, it was entangled with the two Scourged Ankylodons.
However, due to various reasons, the two wyrms that should have been in the Sanctuary-realm were not able to exert the power of the real Sanctuary-realm. Although the Hell Pythons could not do anything to the two wyrms, the Scourged Ankylodons were definitely strong enough to be a formidable opponent for the two wyrms. Although the appearance of the two wyrms helped Rosen to take most of the pressure off, it also made the Zago Lord in the sky even more convinced of his identity as the leader.
After summoning the two wyrms, Rosen did not show any signs of relief. Instead, his face was pale, and a stream of blood slowly flowed from the corner of his mouth. Obviously, summoning the two powerful wyrms had cost Rosen a lot. He wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand, and looked at the situation around him. He had no choice but to let go of his arrogance and move closer to Andoine and the rest.
"Boom!" The Alchemy Colossus under Angelano's control finally collided with the first Mammoth Behemoth that rushed up.
The Mammoth Behemoth was covered in tough armor, and there was a curved horn on its head that was disproportionate to its body. Its huge body was not much different from the Titan-level Alchemy Colossus, and there were two huge spikes on its shoulders that pointed forward like the steel spears in the hands of the Alchemy Colossus. Three pairs of thick legs covered in armor supported its hill-like body, allowing the Mammoth Behemoth to run at a speed that was not affected by its huge body size. The tips of its feet were huge sickle-shaped claws, and it had trampled countless Sickle Black-armored Demons to death along the way. Its claws were covered in disgusting dark green liquid.
In the Zago Demons, the Mammoth Behemoth was definitely a powerful strategic existence. Although it did not have any powerful magic, its hill-like body was enough to dominate the Abyss. It was unknown how thick the carapace was. Even a full-force blow from a Sword Sage would not be able to break it. Although it did not have high magic resistance, it could definitely withstand the bombardment of Legendary-level magic. Its huge body was its gift. What would be fatal to others would at most be like a thorn on its body.
Fortunately, Lin Li had the Titan-level Alchemy Colossus controlled by Angelano. He had to use the Titan-level Alchemy Colossus to deal with the Mammoth Behemoth. Even if the swords used by ordinary people pierced into the Mammoth Behemoth's body, they might not be able to pierce through its thick armor. However, the spear of the Alchemy Colossus was quite a threat to the hill-like Mammoth Behemoth.
However, it was a pity that Lin Li only had one Titan-level Alchemy Colossus on his side, while there were no less than 10 Mammoth Behemoths on the Zago Demons' side. Angelano could handle one Mammoth Behemoth, but if two or three Mammoth Behemoths were to charge at him, it would immediately become a problem for him to protect himself.
"Tyrant Balak has yet to appear. Could it be that he has really been killed by Osric? If the magical crystal in the crystal coffin is really Balak's magical crystal, it might not be impossible for us to get through this crisis! " Lin Li floated in the air, and commanded his subordinates to resist the Zago Demons' attacks in the Light and Darkness Domain. At the same time, he looked at the crystal coffin in the distance.
"Although I've followed Osric for so long, I've never seen him use his full strength. When he defeated me, it was as easy as pinching an ant with his fingers. Actually, I don't even have the courage to attack him when I'm just standing in front of him," the Fire Demon King said as he reminisced.
"If Osric is really here and killed Tyrant Balak all by himself, I'm afraid his strength has far exceeded that of an ordinary Sanctuary powerhouse. He might even be at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm!" Lin Li was a little shocked by his own guess. If he was at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm, he was probably not far from becoming a deity.
The magical crystal in the crystal coffin was Tyrant Balak's magical crystal. Although all the information pointed to this answer, it was not absolute. Putting aside whether Osric was really strong enough to do this alone, he had barged into this place alone to kill the powerful ancient deity Balak, and even dug out his magical crystal. Even if all these were right, who could be sure that the magical crystal in the crystal coffin was Balak's magical crystal? Couldn't it be some powerful prehistoric magical beast?
However, given the current situation, Lin Li seemed to have no other choice. He could only take this as the biggest gamble. If he won the gamble, he and the others would find a chance of survival in this desperate situation. If he lost the gamble, the outcome would be no different from doing nothing.
"Teacher Andoine, Master Aldwin, hold on a little longer. Help me hold off their main force!" Lin Li shouted at Andoine and the others. He did not explain much about what he was going to do, because he could not afford to waste any more time in the current situation. Without waiting for Andoine and the others to respond, he used the Power of Flight and flew straight towards the crystal coffin in the distance.
The disappearance of the Light and Darkness Domain immediately reduced the strength of Lin Li's Undead servants. Although Ujfalusi immediately unleashed his Humerus Domain, and the Lord of Nightmares also unleashed his Nightmare Domain, compared to the power of the Light and Darkness Domain, the power of the Magical Domains formed by the two derived Laws was still too inferior. Although Lin Li had left alone, the departure of a level-23 Legendary-mage still added more pressure to the already overwhelmed people.
"Andoine, is this the student you are so proud of? How dare he run away at such a time!" Rosen had already regrouped with Andoine and the others under the cover of the two wyrms. Seeing that Lin Li had suddenly left the formation, Rosen, who had been besieged by the Zago Demons, was instantly infuriated. He did not believe that a young mage like Lin Li would have any way to solve the current predicament.
However, no one responded to Rosen's accusation. It was as if no one had heard him. Andoine, Aldwin, and even Macklin, who was commanding the team of mages that had been reduced by nearly half, found it more difficult to hold on with the increase of the pressure. However, they were full of confidence in Lin Li.
At this time, Andoine and Aldwin's faces were already showing signs of exhaustion. Although Legendary-mages were known to have infinite mana, in fact, it only meant that their mana recovery speed was fast. Once the consumption was greater than the recovery, they would still be unable to avoid mana exhaustion. However, when they saw Lin Li heading straight for the crystal coffin, their eyes lit up with hope at this moment, even though they did not know what Lin Li was talking about.
