In an instant, the fire zone Syudos had set up around the basin thoroughly lost its effect. Spatial ripples, gales, sound waves, and dust formed a sandstorm. It was like a reckless man using an unreasonable attitude to tear apart the several-hundred-meter-wide fire protection zone.
The flames in the sky were swept up and torn apart. Then, they merged with the sandstorm and slowly dissipated. The flame vortex in the sky that was constantly spewing out elemental flames was swept by the space ripples and sound waves. It slightly shook and twisted. In less than three seconds, it exploded with a boom.
The powerful flames that had lost their fuel lost their replenishment and were quickly destroyed by the sandstorm.
The remaining power of the sandstorm attacked the surroundings of the basin, and in an instant, the array Lin Yun had set up in advance displayed its effect.
Rays of light shone in the surroundings of the basin as each array blossomed with light. All the rays of light converged together and formed a huge multicolored barrier that covered the entire basin.
That terrifying sandstorm was like a flood that washed over the basin. After rushing past the basin, the sandstorm even rushed out of the edge of the Raging Flame Battlefield and fiercely impacted the spatial barrier at the edge of the Raging Flame Battlefield.
Suddenly, in that seemingly endless void, spatial ripples rapidly spread out like a huge smoke ring, and only slowly dissipated after spreading for more than ten kilometers …
After the sandstorm passed, Lin Yun rushed up with an unsightly expression.
2nd Rank Heaven Beast!
It was definitely a genuine 2nd Rank Heaven Beast!
And not a large group of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts that hadn't awakened their wisdom.
That 2nd Rank Heaven Beast seemed to be very far away and had yet to rush over. Its cry was comparable to an Extraordinary Spell with a large area of effect!
That spell looked like a sandstorm, but it was actually a kind of sound wave spell. Sound waves spread at the widest speed and range, they covered a far greater area than ordinary elemental spells.
The powerful sound waves shook the space, causing the distance and speed to increase. Moreover, when this huge force spread out, it was as if a layer of the ground was forcefully torn off and sucked in, which was why it looked like a sandstorm.
Looking into the distance, Lin Yun broke out in a cold sweat.
Even with the Eagle Eye technique, he could only see a dozen kilometers ahead of him.
But where they could see, it was as if a layer of the earth had been peeled off. The mountains and earth had all become bare. Apart from the exposed earth and mountain rocks, nothing else could be found …
Moreover, that sandstorm only covered an area a few kilometers wide. There was almost no effect beyond that. This showed that the 2nd Rank Heaven Beast's control over its power and spells was very precise.
As he recalled how the power of the sandstorm had been greatly reduced by the mountains, Lin Yun knew that he was in big trouble.
This was really troublesome …
Lin Yun's expression was ugly. He didn't know if he was lucky or not.
He had thought about 2nd Rank Heaven Beasts yesterday. This place kept producing mana crystals, but wouldn't the entire Raging Flame Battlefield explode if these mana crystals kept producing Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts when the Raging Flame Battlefield wasn't open?
The number of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts that could be produced in a hundred years would be enough to circle the entire Raging Flame Battlefield a few times.
Or, when the Raging Flame Battlefield wasn't open, this place wouldn't produce that kind of mana crystal, nor would it produce Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts.
Or, the mana crystals wouldn't continue producing Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts and would instead let these already produced magic beasts fight over them.
But according to the information he had previously obtained, the distribution, species, and quantity of Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts weren't much different from when the Raging Flame Battlefield was closed.
Lin Yun guessed that this place might be in a kind of standstill state before the Raging Flame Battlefield opened and that time wouldn't keep moving forward.
There was also another possibility, and that was that these created magic beasts would slumber.
Now that he sensed a 2nd Rank Heaven Rank Magic Beast approaching, Lin Yun knew that the significance of these Pseudo Heaven Rank mana crystals to these Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts wasn't limited to their race's inheritance.
Rather, it was the most important temptation. It was to let them advance to the Heaven Rank, awaken wisdom and become Extraordinary lifeforms!
These mana crystals were their lifelines, they were all their hopes. Now that Lin Yun occupied this array, it really aroused public anger.
2nd Rank Heaven …
Lin Yun's heart slowly sank.
This gap wasn't just a bit big. The 1st Rank of the Heaven Rank could only be considered as having just become an Extraordinary lifeform. Strictly speaking, it could be considered the infancy of an Extraordinary lifeform.
The increase in fighting power at this stage wasn't especially big compared to the later stages, but it was like heaven and earth when compared to the previous stages of the Heaven Rank.
This point was even stricter among magic beasts. After awakening wisdom and obtaining Extraordinary Power, a 1st Rank Heaven Beast's strength would increase in all aspects.
A 1st Rank Heaven Beast with a weak body could kill a Pseudo Heaven Rank Barbarian Ox like a cat playing with a mouse.
That huge gap was far greater than the gap between a 1st Rank Heaven Mage and a Pseudo Heaven Mage.
If a Barbarian Ox awakened wisdom and Extraordinary Power, it would be able to resist over a hundred 8th Tier Spells without suffering any damage. This was the difference in essence.
When magic beasts transformed into Extraordinary lifeforms, their progress and changes were far stronger than human mages. Some aspects of their characteristics would undergo a qualitative transformation.
But the gap between a 2nd Rank Heaven Beast and a 1st Rank Heaven Beast was even bigger, it was ten times to a hundred times.
Just the aura it released could make a 1st Rank Heaven Beast unable to resist. The gap between bloodline and rank was strictly enforced among magic beasts. The gap between each rank was like a natural moat that simply couldn't be crossed. It wasn't like human mages, who had Magic Tools and other methods to make up for that gap.
All the Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts here might not be enough to kill that 2nd Rank Heaven Beast. Similarly, everyone here definitely wouldn't be that 2nd Rank Heaven Beast's opponent.
Once that 2nd Rank Heaven Beast arrived, everyone would be done for.
Lin Yun bitterly smiled, he finally couldn't remain calm. If it was a 2nd Rank Heaven Mage, he might have some methods and paid a disastrous price to make the other side die.
But when facing a 2nd Rank Heaven Beast, all his methods were useless.
Even with so many Magic Tools, he still couldn't get rid of a 2nd Rank Heaven Beast.
To put it simply, all methods wouldn't be able to break the defense of a 2nd Rank Heaven Beast. That kind of big guy had thick skin and super thick blood.
They might be able to resist for a bit, but it would take at most three minutes for that 2nd Rank Heaven Beast to get rid of everyone. At most, the other side would suffer some scratches, nothing more.
After Syudos became the Magic Tool Incarnation of the Book of Mantras, he was comparable to a 1st Rank Heaven Beast. But Syudos' control and development of the Book of Mantras were far from enough, he could at most display the power of the 1st Rank.
Facing a 2nd Rank Heaven Beast, Syudos might be killed, and the Extraordinary Magic Tool, the Book of Mantras, might even be destroyed.
Lin Yun hadn't made his decision yet, but the magic beasts on the other side had already made their decision.
Those several dozen Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts once again charged towards the basin, and they could even see some Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts rushing towards the basin.
After losing Syudos' flaming defensive line, the pressure on those Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts greatly increased.
After three seconds, the four stone-skinned Barbarian Oxs were already a few hundred meters away from the array formation.
Lin Yun's Four Element Bomb and the mage army's Bursting Flames Flood made a move at the same time and overturned these four Barbarian Oxs. But the other side's huge bodies were like four small hills after falling down and ruthlessly charged towards the array formation.
The huge power they carried after launching their charge was something they couldn't control.
The four several-dozen-meter-tall Flesh Mountains tumbled and collided with the light barrier formed by the array formation. In an instant, the dim light barrier's radiance sharply increased and law runes floated out of that layer of translucent light barrier.
These law runes were surrounded by a huge group of runes. The law runes were like a general leading the numerous runes to wander within the light barrier and disperse the power hitting the barrier before spreading it to every array.
After being dispersed into several dozen parts, they would be decomposed by different arrays. The light barrier only shone for an instant before darkening once again. The four Barbarian Oxs' attacks were blocked by the array formation in less than a second.
Lin Yun looked at the four stunned Barbarian Oxs outside the array formation and a cold glint flashed in his eyes. He opened his mouth and chanted four strange syllables. In an instant, four different-colored law runes appeared in the air.
The three-dimensional law runes collided together and transformed into a four-colored sphere of light that split into four parts and instantly entered the mouths of the four Barbarian Oxs.
Four-colored rays of light simultaneously blossomed in the mouths of the four stunned Barbarian Oxs. The mana within Lin Yun's body burst out like a flood.
A huge amount of mana spurted out and at the cost of several times the mana consumption, he instantly cast four Four Element Bombs. Moreover, the Four Element Bombs condensed in the mouths of the four Barbarian Oxs.
Such a close distance was enough for Lin Yun to condense spells in their mouths. But the interference from casting was too great. It was impossible to condense spells normally. He could only rely on his Metamagic ability and his own mana to forcibly cast four instant spells.
