In the blink of an eye, all the Souls of the Dead were torn into pieces by the huge invisible force, which then tore them into smaller pieces before shattering and disappearing in this world. If it weren't for the destroyed Teleportation Portal and the few shriveled corpses in front of them, the people present would probably even think that they had just had a nightmare.
Andoine and Rosen, who had rushed to the rescue behind Lin Li and the others, immediately landed on the ground the moment Lin Li erupted with such a huge pressure. It was because the pressure actually made them feel that their Power of Flight had suddenly become extremely sluggish, and they even had a thought that flying in front of Lin Li was an intolerable blasphemy.
Others might not know, but Andoine and Rosen had come into contact with the three arbitrators before. Hence, they immediately discovered that the pressure on Lin Li's body was extremely similar to the one they had felt from the arbitrators. It was as if his will was the will of heaven and earth, and he was above the world. The rules of the entire world operated only for him, and no one could resist it.
Could it be that he has already stepped into the Sanctuary-realm!? At the thought of this, the two of them couldn't help but be horrified, and they stopped in place at the same time.
Andoine still remembered that when he picked up Lin Li in the mountains a few years ago, Lin Li was still a magic illiterate who didn't even know how to meditate. He couldn't even be considered a mage apprentice. Although Andoine had already seen that Lin Li's talent in magic was probably not inferior to Geresco's at that time, he didn't expect Lin Li to actually step into the Sanctuary-realm at this time.
Back then, Geresco, the God of Mages, was born into a family of mages, and had received orthodox magic education since he was young. Hence, he only stepped into the Sanctuary-realm at the age of 30. However, Lin Li only took a few years to reach the peak of magic, which was a speed that even Geresco couldn't catch up to.
Of course, apart from being shocked, Andoine was also pleasantly surprised. He was the one who discovered Lin Li in the mountains, and he was the one who introduced Lin Li to the palace of magic. Seeing that his student had achieved such an achievement, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
Rosen, who was standing beside Andoine, had a sullen expression on his face. He dared not believe it, but he had no choice but to believe it because he could not think of any other explanation for the pressure that Lin Li was displaying. Now, he finally understood why the three arbitrators would favor Lin Li so much. It turned out that Lin Li was not an ant at all, but had already reached the same level as the three arbitrators.
If he had known that Zhang Xuan had already stepped into the Saint realm, he would never have proposed that proposal. He initially thought that with his status and power, as well as his control over the Supreme Council, he could trample on Lin Li like an ant. However, he did not expect that he was the real ant in Lin Li's eyes! Thinking of the scene at the meeting that day, Rosen felt that he was simply a clown, and even felt disgusted by his performance.
At this moment, Rosen seemed to have aged a few decades, and he no longer had the slightest desire to fight for power. It was not that he had gotten over it, but he knew that no matter what he did, it would be useless. The gap between him and Lin Li was no longer something that could be bridged by any schemes or plots.
Besides, Rosen was well aware of the relationship between Lin Li and Andoine. Originally, he could still compete with Andoine in the Supreme Council, but now that Andoine had the support of a Sanctuary powerhouse, how could he compete with Andoine in the future?
In fact, Rosen could even vaguely guess why the three arbitrators had met Lin Li, let alone compete with Andoine. Once Lin Li really gained power in the Supreme Council in the future, Rosen could totally imagine how difficult his life would be.
Unlike Andoine and Rosen, Joey and the others who had been standing around Lin Li did not think about the Sanctuary-realm even though they were more affected by the pressure released by Lin Li. After all, they were weaker in the first place, and Hahnar had only just stepped into the Legendary-realm. The others were just Archmages, and they did not have a clear understanding of the power of the Sanctuary-realm.
However, Joey and the others were still extremely shocked by the strength that Lin Li had displayed. With a gentle tap of his finger, dozens of Legendary-level Souls of the Dead and hundreds of Souls of the Dead that were close to the Legendary-level were instantly turned into ashes. Such power was already unimaginable to them, and it made no difference to them whether it was at the peak of the Legendary-realm or the Sanctuary-realm.
However, they thought of Canuman's challenge to Lin Li at the venue previously. At this moment, they finally understood why Lin Li was so tough. Judging from the strength that Lin Li had displayed at this moment, Canuman would definitely be the one to suffer in the end even if Arbitrator Apophis did not appear.
"Felic!"
Seeing that Lin Li had restrained his mana waves and pressure after destroying the Souls of the Dead, Andoine finally strode towards him and looked at him with a peculiar expression for a long time. He then said, "Rascal, when did you get to this stage? You didn't even know about it. You made me worry for nothing!"
Lin Li rubbed his nose, which didn't seem to have changed much. He smiled at Andoine, and said, "Haha, it's all because of your guidance and my luck."
Rosen was right next to Andoine, and although his expression had eased up a lot, he did not say anything. It was not that he did not want to say it, but rather that he simply could not suppress the complicated emotions in his heart. No matter what he said, even if it was a compliment, it would probably bring out the emotions in his heart. Hence, he might as well not say anything.
Fortunately, Andoine and Lin Li did not talk too much about the Sanctuary-realm, and simply talked about the situation of the Calamity. Otherwise, it would be too awkward for Rosen to stand at the side.
After Andoine and Rosen left, Lin Li, Joey, and the others arrived at the Teleportation Portal. Everything that happened just now seemed to be just an interlude during the journey, but when Joey and the others looked at Lin Li, they could not help but be in awe.
The mana source of the Teleportation Portal had only been destroyed by the Souls of the Dead, which was not a problem for Lin Li at all. He simply took out a magical crystal to replace the damaged mana source, and the Teleportation Portal immediately returned to its original state.
As the Teleportation Portal flashed, the figures of Lin Li and the others had already disappeared. At this moment, the mages who had rushed to support after receiving the alarm had just arrived outside the Teleportation Portal. However, no one saw the scene of Lin Li killing all the Souls of the Dead.
"Who emitted that pressure just now? Could it be an arbitrator?" A middle-aged Legendary-mage asked as he stood next to the corpses of the unlucky mages. If he hadn't seen the corpses, he would probably have thought that the alarm was a mistake.
"It's too powerful. It must be the arbitrator. Otherwise, how could he have chased those Souls of the Dead away so quickly?" Another Legendary-mage looked around, but he could not sense any aura of the battle. Clearly, those Souls of the Dead had been chased away by absolute power. In the entire Supreme Council, apart from the three arbitrators, he could not think of anyone else who would have such great power.
"Previously, I saw that President Felic from the Breezy Plains Guild of Magic seemed to be heading in this direction. Could it be him …"
"Impossible, the pressure just now definitely came from a Sanctuary powerhouse. Maybe it was the arbitrator who attacked in order to protect him. Human luck is really incomparable. With the protection of the arbitrator, he might become a high-ranking councilor in the future. "
Regardless of the discussions in the Sky Garden, Lin Li and the others had already appeared in the Teleportation Portal of the Alanna Guild of Magic. Macklin, who had returned in advance, was already waiting outside the Teleportation Portal. As soon as he saw Lin Li and the others coming out, he immediately went forward to greet them. He wanted Lin Li to stay there for a few more days no matter what.
Looking at Macklin and Lin Li chatting and joking with each other, Joey's and Hahnar's faces couldn't help but twitch a little. In the past, they definitely wouldn't have felt anything special. After all, in their eyes, Lin Li was just a President of a Guild of Magic like them.
However, it was different now. When they encountered the Heavenly Disaster just now, the feeling that Lin Li gave them, especially the inviolable pressure that was like the will of heaven and earth, was still deeply etched in their minds. However, Lin Li who was joking with Macklin in front of them made them unable to connect the two of them together. Just a moment ago, she was a graceful and dignified saintess that could not be profaned, but in the next moment, she was digging her feet and cursing. This strong contrast was enough to make people vomit blood.
Although he was chatting with Macklin, Lin Li did not forget his promise to Joey. He asked Macklin for a suitable place, and then directly released five Magical Crystal Cannons and a few boxes filled with magical crystals from the Ring of Endless Storm.
To be honest, even Macklin was a little stunned when he saw those things. Although the Alanna Guild of Magic was rich, a large number of resources were used for the cultivation of mages. Things like Magical Crystal Cannons could still be considered a luxury for them.
As for Joey and Mason, although they had heard Lin Li talk about it before, and knew that Lin Li wouldn't be bragging, they still couldn't help but feel shocked when they saw the Magical Crystal Cannons with their own eyes.
It was impossible for the dignified Guild of Magic to not be angry after being repeatedly invaded by a group of pirates. However, the strength of the Guild of Magic was limited, and what could they do to those pirates? Not to mention the pirates, the other forces of Chevan City gradually did not respect the Guild of Magic anymore because of this matter.
If the five Magical Crystal Cannons were used well, it would be enough to completely destroy those pirates, and could also deter the other forces of Chevan City, so that the status of the Chevan City Guild of Magic could not be shaken. Although it seemed a little dishonorable to rely on external objects, at least it could allow the mages in the Guild of Magic to no longer be affected by the outside world, and to be able to study magic in peace.
Since Lin Li was so generous, Macklin naturally couldn't do nothing. After all, the Alanna Guild of Magic was the headquarters of all the Guilds of Magic. How could the headquarters not do something when their subordinates were bullied? Hence, Macklin patted his chest and made the decision. When Joey and the others transported the Magical Crystal Cannons back, the Alanna headquarters would send some mages to help guard along the way and assist the Chevan City Guild of Magic to eliminate the pirates.
Joey and the others set off for their respective guilds. Although Lin Li stayed in the Alanna Guild of Magic, he still had more things to do, after all. Hence, he only stayed for three days before bidding farewell to Aldwin.
Lin Li followed Arbitrator Chris to the Sky Garden, and had only been away from the Tower of Dusk for more than 10 days. However, the changes in the Tower of Dusk were extremely obvious.
The news that Lin Li had stepped into the Sanctuary-realm had not spread much in the so-called development center of magic civilization. Even if there was, it would be treated as nonsense. However, the news had already spread widely in the Breezy Plains, especially during the meeting held by the Tower of Dusk, which made countless large and medium-sized forces lower their heads and submit to it. Under such a change in the situation, almost no one doubted the authenticity of the news. If it wasn't a Sanctuary powerhouse, who could suppress those top forces?
Now, the business of the Tower of Dusk in the Breezy Plains had reached a height that no other force could reach, and no force dared to obstruct them at all. Of course, Lin Li would not really cut off the livelihood of other forces. For example, in terms of channels, cooperation was still the main way of business. After all, with the current development of the Tower of Dusk, it was impossible for them to really spread their business all over the plains.
However, the development of the business did not show much change in the past 10 days. The only thing that could be seen was the signing of a large number of cooperation agreements. The most obvious change in the Tower of Dusk was in the personnel, who were the members of the Guild of Magic.
There was a living area around the Tower of Dusk that was specially built for the mages to live in. When Lin Li left, the entire living area was probably less than a quarter occupied. However, after Lin Li returned to the Tower of Dusk in the past 10 days, he discovered that the number of mages had almost doubled.
In the past, most of the mages who joined the Tower of Dusk were locals of Doland. Occasionally, there would be some mages from other regions. This was the problem of territory. No matter what power it was, they would vigorously recruit talents in their own territory. Hence, fighting for territory was not just about fighting for resources, but also for talents. Talents were also indispensable resources for the development of a force.
In the past, the Tower of Dusk had a good reputation, and they treated the mages well. However, why were many mages still willing to choose their local forces?
