As the flames of war spread, the conflicts within the human alliance no longer mattered. No one dared to provoke an internal conflict at this time.
Lin Yun gave up on the temporary camp and led a few of his subordinates to keep roaming the edge of the battlefield. He never made direct contact with the Raging Flame Beastmen, he only hunted Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts. He would occasionally see a Beastman team hunting magic beasts and snatch the spoils of war from various sides. He simply didn't have the opportunity to tangle with the other side.
As Lin Yun wandered around the battlefield, news kept coming.
In the morning, Raphael led the mages of the City in the Sky to arrange an array near the temple and killed more than half of a Beastman team. One of the Heaven Rank powerhouses was seriously injured by Raphael and escaped.
In the afternoon, the Burning Tower was ambushed and Didala was besieged by two Heaven Rank Beastmen and almost fell. Both sides lost many people.
The battle became very fierce from the start. Lin Yun silently calculated the number of mana crystals in his hands.
The City in the Sky and the Henry Family would give two-fifths of the mana crystals they obtained to Lin Yun. As for the Cloud Tower and the Black Tower, they would directly give all the mana crystals they obtained to Lin Yun.
And with the humans and Beastmen hunting at the same time, the number of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts in the Raging Flame Battlefield had sharply declined. When they went out to hunt, they would spend most of their time looking for magic beasts.
Lin Yun then calmly researched the Beast God's Blood. But now, the battle had started and the four forces didn't have the time to focus on hunting magic beasts. The supply of mana crystals was suddenly cut off.
Even if the Beastmen didn't attack the camp, Lin Yun would have no choice but to hunt magic beasts himself.
After calculating the number of mana crystals in his hands and referring to the current research progress, Lin Yun roughly estimated that he still needed three drops of Beast God's Blood to research the secret of the Beast God's Blood.
With three more drops of Beast God's Blood, he would more or less be able to research the secret.
After a week, Lin Yun suddenly frowned.
Three days ago, they would only encounter one Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beast every day. Sometimes, they wouldn't find a single Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beast.
But in the past three days, the frequency of discovering Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts had suddenly increased. They encountered five Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts in three days, and they had even discovered the 6th Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beast a dozen kilometers away.
He took out a mana crystal and carefully studied it, but there was no result. After thinking for a bit, Lin Yun once again took out thirty mana crystals at once. At that time, the Magic Array finally caught a wisp of a different aura.
After these mana crystals were gathered together, they were clearly pointing in the direction of the temple. However, after increasing in number, the spatial power contained within the mana crystals faintly resonated with another place.
He took out all the mana crystals he had and even arranged an array to shield the connection between the mana crystals and the temple. A faint and faint resonance appeared.
That wisp of resonance led in a completely different direction from the temple, and it slightly deviated his path.
After putting away the mana crystals, Lin Yun frowned and flew up to check the direction the mana crystals were resonating with. Doubt and expectation flashed in his eyes.
The frequency of that wisp of resonance was very low, it would only appear once every two hours. If he hadn't happened to encounter it, he might not have been able to discover it.
"We are heading in that direction."
Lin Yun pointed in the direction of the resonance and Xiuban started scratching his head.
"Sir Merlin, didn't we go in that direction before? Didn't you say that the resources there would be fewer and fewer as it neared the edge of the Raging Flame Battlefield?"
Lin Yun nodded.
"Indeed, the closer to the center of the Raging Flame Battlefield, the richer the resources and the more magic materials there are. The closer to the edge, the fewer the materials and the rarer the magic beasts.
But it's because of this that I overlooked a problem … "
The entire Raging Flame Battlefield was a peculiar small plane. That place was essentially a space-time node, and the entire Raging Flame Battlefield was like that.
Normally, the mana of this kind of small plane would become thinner and thinner as it neared the edge. The edge could even lead to the chaotic endless void. If one was unlucky and encountered a Netherstorm, they would be waiting to be torn apart. At that time, they wouldn't even be able to find their corpses.
Moreover, that place was practically barren. Who would take the risk and run to that kind of barren place?
But now, a clue appeared and gave Lin Yun a bold conjecture.
As they got closer to the edge of the Raging Flame Battlefield, sure enough, the vegetation there was getting sparser, and all kinds of magic materials and resources were getting fewer and fewer.
The Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts he saw should have been left behind because no one had hunted them before.
But that was until Lin Yun suddenly sensed a Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beast a few kilometers away. That Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beast started approaching the center of the Raging Flame Battlefield.
A bold conjecture appeared in Lin Yun's mind.
'These magic beasts were created here!'
He flew all the way to the place where the Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beast suddenly appeared. There was nothing there, it was as barren as a desert. There was only a bare mountain towering within a few kilometers.
The whole area was like a basin. From the edge of the basin, layers of huge sand steps that looked like abandoned terraces extended to the center of the basin, and the barren mountain was in the center of the basin.
When he saw that huge basin, Lin Yun flew up and runes appeared in his eyes. Then, array patterns also appeared.
Lin Yun couldn't make any more deductions before they were completely assembled.
"Damnit, this is a huge array, and it's not an ordinary array. It uses law runes as nodes, yet I can't make any deductions. This is a Heaven Grade Array!"
Shock flashed in Lin Yun's eyes, but a smile instantly appeared on Lin Yun's face. He flew to the center of the basin and circled around that bare mountain twice before stopping in an unremarkable notch.
He opened his mouth and spat out three runes, making the entire mountain seem transparent. Numerous runes filled the interior of the mountain. The entire mountain and this basin were connected to the entire earth, forming a huge three-dimensional array!
Moreover, all the runes within the array were law runes.
Boundless power from the void was forcibly torn apart by that huge array. Then, this power scattered and fused within the array. Every kind of elemental power was separated and then poured into the peak of the mountain through the entire array.
At the peak of the mountain, fire power was condensing. The huge amount of fire power was forcibly condensed and compressed, and there was also a wisp of spatial power within the void.
These spatial energies formed a core, as if they were entrusted to something, allowing the power of the flames to continuously gather and condense.
Once the fire power was compressed to its pinnacle, a light appeared at the peak of the mountain and a flaming mana crystal appeared out of nowhere. Then, all the flames were compressed into the mana crystal and the mana crystal became stronger and stronger.
It only took a few seconds for all the flames to disappear and only a Level 40 fire mana crystal calmly floated there.
Not waiting for Lin Yun to do anything, the entire array revolved once again. The huge amount of spatial power within the mana crystal floated up and instantly flowed through the entire array.
In an instant, the numerous Law Runes within the array revolved and all the runes' effects instantly changed. The entire array turned into another kind of array at this moment.
At the peak of the mountain, the shadow of a panic-stricken striped tiger appeared there. That fire mana crystal slowly merged with that striped tiger's head.
Then, that spatial power appeared once again and the striped tiger's shadow instantly disappeared from the peak of the mountain.
At this time, the basin and the mountain once again regained their normal appearance. There wasn't a single trace of abnormality.
A smile appeared on Lin Yun's face as if he had expected this.
When he came out of the temple and learned that Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts' mana crystals could be exchanged for things, Lin Yun had been doubtful.
The Raging Flame Battlefield wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. After all, it could compare to a small plane. But no matter how big a world was, it couldn't withstand endless crazy hunting.
Even if those Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts were only at the Pseudo Heaven Rank and didn't have Extraordinary Power, they were still Level 40 Magic Beasts. As magic beasts, they had their own territories. The higher the rank of the magic beast, the bigger their territory.
Even if there were a lot of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts here, each magic beast's territory wouldn't be too small, it would be at least a dozen kilometers.
With this division, the Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts would eventually be hunted to extinction. Moreover, as the hunting continued, the number of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts would keep decreasing.
In the end, there would be no Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts left.
But after a few months, with so many people continuously hunting, almost every force had accumulated the 100 mana crystals needed for a drop of Beast God's Blood.
At least a few thousand Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts had been killed. Such a huge force would be enough to destroy a kingdom in Noscent. But here, those Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts only guarded their territories and rarely fought.
Moreover, as the humans and Beastmen hunted, the number of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts didn't decrease drastically, it only decreased a lot. To a certain extent, everyone's hunting speed was more or less constant. It looked like the number of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts was no longer decreasing.
Combined with the old Beastman's words, Lin Yun made a bold conjecture. The Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts weren't only created by humans, but they could also be continuously replenished!
Even when researching the Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts' mana crystals, Lin Yun felt that these mana crystals definitely weren't formed by natural magic beasts, they were also man-made.
Now that he saw this array and saw the creation of a Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beast, Lin Yun thoroughly understood.
This was a Heaven Grade Array, and a very powerful one at that!
This array forcibly extracted power from the void, and Lin Yun guessed that it might be directly extracting the power from the Elemental Storm and the Void Storm.
