"Just now, Toursse of the Rodney Family came to look for trouble. You didn't see it, the Gilded Rose only had a puppet guard stand up and instantly killed Toursse's four Heaven Rank Undeads. Toursse himself was seriously injured, but unfortunately, he managed to escape.
"Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. Thanks to that damned Toursse, everything in the Gilded Rose is 20% off today. The Gilded Rose is truly generous, it's a lot better than the Rodney Family. I have to hurry up and snatch something, or I'll be sold out …"
When Lin Yun walked down the stairs, he heard many people discussing the battle, but the more they talked about it, the more outrageous it became. After a few minutes, someone even bragged that a puppet appeared and scared Toursse so much that he peed his pants.
After leaving the Gilded Rose's street, Lin Yun suddenly stopped and looked in the distance. He saw Gandaph standing there with a warm smile, but no one next to him seemed to have noticed him.
"Sir Mafa, do you have time today? I'll take you to see that Sir."
Lin Yun nodded. He just sent away Toursse of the Rodney Family. He believed that as long as the Rodney Family was smart, they wouldn't attack the Gilded Rose again.
As for the Sir Gandaph mentioned, Lin Yun already had some guesses, but he wasn't too sure. The powerhouses of this era that Gandaph would call 'Sir' in such a respectful tone could be counted on one hand.
Gandaph led them out of the city and into the distance. Lin Yun was flabbergasted, 'Could it be somewhere else? Not in Neverwinter City? '
After all, Neverwinter City was huge, and at least half of it was occupied by the Starry Sky College.
After flying with Gandaph for an hour, they arrived at an ordinary-looking mountain forest. The surrounding mountain peaks weren't very high, this place was really too ordinary. There wasn't a single thousand-meter-high mountain within a few dozen kilometers, and the mana wasn't very abundant. The lifeforms in the surroundings were mostly low-ranked magic beasts and wild beasts.
After landing, Lin Yun immediately started investigating the surroundings, but no matter how he looked, the surroundings were ordinary, there wasn't anything special.
Gandaph looked at Lin Yun's appearance and didn't explain anything. He led the way and after a few minutes, he led Lin Yun to the foot of a mountain. There was a path leading to the top of the mountain, but it was overgrown with weeds. It looked like someone had been walking there, but it didn't seem to be walking there often.
Gandaph pointed at the path.
"This is as far as I can send you. You can go up by yourself. The lord who wants to see you is at the top of this mountain. Without his summons, I can't go up."
After saying that, Gandaph flew away. Lin Yun opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Gandaph had already turned into a black dot and disappeared in the horizon.
Lin Yun looked at the overgrown path in front of him, or rather, it was an abandoned path, it was even worse than the paths some hunters had opened up.
Looking up from the foot of the mountain, you can directly see the top of the mountain. The tallest trees here are no more than ten meters high, and the vegetation is sparse. It's impossible to see that on this ordinary mountain, there is a person that Gandalf has to respect.
'Could it be that I guessed wrong? That person isn't that powerful and only has a special status, or perhaps a special ability?'
This guess was also very likely. After all, the Starry Sky College wasn't a pure mage force, it was mainly focused on alchemy. In the Starry Sky College, status itself wasn't based on strength. The Starry Sky College also had some special mages with terrifying theoretical knowledge, but they were limited by their own strength and couldn't display those theories.
After thinking for a bit, Lin Yun couldn't figure out who the person on the mountain was. Suddenly, Lin Yun shook his head and smiled.
'Forget it, I'll go up and take a look, I won't be able to guess …'
After stepping on that path, Lin Yun walked up at a moderate pace, but after walking for ten minutes, Lin Yun suddenly stopped and looked back with a frown.
Although he wasn't walking very fast, he should have reached the top in ten minutes. But when he looked up, the mountain peak was still in the distance, and when he looked back, he discovered that the foot of the mountain was already very far away. This distance already exceeded the height of the mountain!
Under normal circumstances, he should have already reached the top, but the peak was still at the foot of the mountain.
A light flashed in Lin Yun's eyes. He turned around and walked back at his original speed, reaching the foot of the mountain in a dozen seconds. It felt as if the foot of the mountain was getting closer with every step, and it felt very normal, as if it should have been like this.
But a kilometer of distance could be covered in a dozen seconds at an ordinary walking speed, this was abnormal in itself.
But he couldn't sense anything abnormal with his perception, this was the most abnormal part.
Lin Yun raised his head and looked at the top of the mountain. It was still in its original position and Lin Yun suddenly smiled.
'It looks like the person up there is definitely a very terrifying powerhouse in the field of alchemy, he is at least a Saint Alchemist. This spatial obstruction is perfectly arranged, it almost deceived me.'
As he once again stepped on that almost invisible mountain path, countless runes started appearing in Lin Yun's eyes. The runes formed a small loop that covered Lin Yun's eyes before slowly spreading towards the whites of his eyes.
After a few seconds, Lin Yun's eyes and the whites of his eyes could no longer be seen. Only small runes could be seen forming colorful halos that densely covered Lin Yun's eyeballs.
This was a spell Lin Yun had researched after researching truth runes. It was specially used to peek at arrays. As long as there was an array or something related to alchemy, he would be able to see the other side's runic structure.
Even if he couldn't see through it, he could still find some nodes of the array. As long as he found those nodes, it wouldn't be that difficult to crack a path leading to the top of the mountain. Even if it was a Heaven Grade Array, even if he couldn't crack it thoroughly, he would still be able to crack a path. Lin Yun was still confident.
But after stepping on the mountain once again and advancing for ten minutes, Lin Yun was stunned.
Because he didn't see a single rune on the way, he didn't sense a single wisp of mana, he didn't even find anything related to alchemy, he didn't even find anything related to magic.
After scattering the halos in his eyes, Lin Yun's expression became serious. This was too abnormal, too abnormal.
The changes in the space here meant that he was definitely inside the array. He walked out of the small path and tried to move towards the top of the mountain from another direction, but he encountered the same thing. The top of the mountain was always so far away.
After struggling for half an hour, Lin Yun stopped and frowned, thinking hard.
He didn't find any traces of an array, nor did he find any traces of alchemy items, because it was impossible for there to be an array in this space that he couldn't find any traces of.
Lin Yun was confident in this, because even the strongest array of Noscent's peak couldn't accomplish this. There was only one possibility left.
He had encountered an illusion!
An illusion could be set up by an array, or it could be a Magic Tool, or even some special magic beasts. There were too many things that could accomplish this.
Since there was no array here, it might be an illusion created by some special Magic Tool or something. This place itself was an illusion, and it didn't affect anyone, so he couldn't detect it.
The Mirage Dragon in the dark depths of the Endless Ocean could conjure a huge city. Even the people living in it were so lifelike that it was impossible for people to detect them.
The most powerful Star Sky Phantasm Beasts roaming the endless void would directly transform into an almost real world when hunting, and anything that entered that world would be devoured.
Lin Yun looked around for a few minutes, but he didn't find a way to break this illusion. If he used a particularly powerful illusion Magic Tool, he wouldn't be able to break it without finding the main body of the Magic Tool.
But as long as it was an illusion, there was a 100% effective shortcut to find a flaw.
As long as his soul was stimulated and his soul felt a stinging pain, he would become extremely sensitive to his surroundings. That was his soul's instinct when encountering danger.
And that moment was enough for him to find some clues, and with those clues, he would be able to find a way to break it.
Lin Yun roused his soul power and transformed it into a few illusory needles that ruthlessly pierced his soul. In an instant, an indescribable pain rose up, and the stinging pain in his soul brought about a terrifying feeling of death.
In that split second, Lin Yun's perception and grasp of his surroundings sharply increased by a hundred times. Every wisp of air flow, every bit of mana change, he could clearly feel it.
Even the world before his eyes turned into a gorgeous scene overflowing with radiance. It was so gorgeous that his eyes couldn't bear it, and his soul suffered heavy pressure.
This was his soul's vision, he could see the world's most fundamental source, it was also the most fundamental appearance of the world.
The information captured by his eyes in that split second made Lin Yun's Magic Array revolve to its pinnacle, and even the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel joined in the deciphering of that information, barely managing to withstand that huge amount of information.
There was a kind of innately powerful Extraordinary Soul Beasts. They were most proficient at using their soul vision to observe the world, because their bodies were pure Soul Bodies. Their vision of the world was a few hundred times better than that of humans.
With Lin Yun's current strength, if he used his Soul Beast's vision to look at the world before his eyes, the huge amount of information would instantly burst his soul.
After a few seconds, the stinging pain in his soul thoroughly disappeared. The needles piercing his soul were the power of the soul itself, it was just a bit rough when returning, but it wouldn't cause any damage to his soul.
After a minute, Lin Yun frowned and opened his eyes. He had deciphered that huge amount of information twice, not ignoring any seemingly useless information, but the result was that this place was completely normal.
There was no array, no influence of spells, no illusion, this was just an ordinary hill.
Looking at the distant hilltop, Lin Yun opened his mouth and spat out a rune. The rune transformed into a Wind Blade that was compressed until it was only as thick as a finger. He then marked the Wind Blade with a mana imprint and sent it flying towards the hilltop.
The Wind Blade instantly disappeared, and after half a minute, Lin Yun could no longer sense the Wind Blade. Within half a minute, that extremely compressed Wind Blade's speed had already surpassed the speed of sound, and it had flown at least twenty kilometers in half a minute.
But it still hadn't reached the hilltop. Moreover, it was still very far from the hilltop.
In other words, the hilltop was so far away, but even if he flew for ten years, he might not be able to reach it. The distance from the foot of the hill to the hilltop might be longer than crossing all of Noscent.
But Lin Yun's frown eased up, because he more or less understood what the problem was.
This was a possibility that Lin Yun had overlooked from the start, the Laws of this place had been changed!
Heaven Rank powerhouses could only comprehend Laws and use Laws to control Laws, but they couldn't change the Laws in the slightest. The Laws themselves could only be what they were.
If they wanted to change the Laws, they had to surpass the Heaven Rank. Only powerhouses that ignited their Godfire had the power to change the Laws to their own advantage, and even their own Laws.
The test before them wasn't an array, a Magic Tool, an illusion, or a spell. Everything was normal, so there was only one possibility that he hadn't considered from the start: The Laws of this place had been changed by someone!
Only by doing so would he not be able to discover any abnormalities when probing. Only then would he feel that this was how it was supposed to be.
Lin Yun couldn't help being shocked as he looked at this ordinary-looking hill, which was less than a kilometer in height and had sparse vegetation.
'No wonder Gandaph respectfully called him' Sir ', he is actually a terrifying powerhouse that has already changed the Laws!
The distance of over a kilometer had been pulled to infinity, but it didn't have any destructive power. This showed that that powerhouse wasn't deliberately controlling it, but rather that the other side was sitting there and the surrounding Laws were changing to suit him, making the Laws of the world adapt to him. This was undoubtedly a very frightening realm.
This was the frightening part of powerhouses that ignited their Godfire. As long as the other side changed the Laws, a Heaven Rank powerhouse wouldn't be able to resist and wouldn't even be able to release a simple Fireball. The Laws comprehended were wrong here, and the truth grasped was also wrong here.
'No wonder this mountain didn't need to be guarded, it's because as long as the other side is there and doesn't let anyone approach, even if it's only a meter, that distance would become over ten thousand kilometers.'
After finding the reason why he couldn't reach the top of the hill, a smile appeared on Lin Yun 'face.
This was only a test, it wasn't very powerful, and the control over the Laws wasn't very strong either. It was as if the other side's aura had leaked and naturally changed.
Lin Yun knew that during Noscent's peak, there was such a powerhouse that specialized in the Spatial Law and ignited his Godfire. He was an unequalled existence because he offended a large number of people, but no one could get rid of him.
Even powerhouses of the same rank that could resist some of the changes to the Laws couldn't attack him. No matter who it was, they were separated by a world and couldn't pierce through the world with one attack. They couldn't even touch the corner of the other side's clothes.
Although the current situation was too different, it was a bit interesting.
Lin Yun stood there, motionless, thinking about how to break free from the changed Laws. It was impossible to completely avoid it, the other side's power already exceeded the limits of quantity. Even if over a thousand Heaven Rank powerhouses came, they wouldn't be able to reach the top of the hill. All methods that relied on quantity were completely useless here.
After thinking for a few minutes and filtering all his power, Lin Yun suddenly froze. He suddenly recalled a conjecture about the identity of the person at the top of the hill and smiled.
A huge aura spread from Lin Yun's body, and Lin Yun's expression became solemn.
Slowly, the shadow of a Demiplane appeared behind Lin Yun. That huge shadow was over ten kilometers in size and looked like a miniature Natural Demiplane. Everything inside had been shrunk countless times, and only the pillar in the center could still be clearly seen.
The huge Demiplane's shadow had just appeared when the surrounding space started fluctuating. The originally normal world seemed to have turned into an enraged God. It was as if the surrounding Laws were forcibly suppressing the Natural Demiplane's shadow.
The dozen-kilometer-big Demiplane shadow was rapidly suppressed to only three to four meters in size. The power of the Demiplane was instilled into Lin Yun's body to resist the suppression of the surrounding space.
The space inside the Demiplane faintly trembled, but the pillar instantly blossomed with radiance. The truth runes' radiance floated and the Mana Lake's water rapidly dissipated. The Demiplane's trembling suddenly stopped, but the Mana Lake's water rapidly dissipated.
The power of the Demiplane spread out with Lin Yun's body as the core, resisting the suppression of the surrounding space.
The Laws of this place were different from the Laws of the Demiplane. Even if they weren't too different, they were completely different Laws. The moment Lin Yun borrowed the power of the Demiplane, the collision between the Laws of the Demiplane and the Laws of the outside world didn't have much to do with Lin Yun, it was instead the Demiplane's Laws fighting for control with the Laws of the outside world.
The core of the world wouldn't let different Laws appear within its range, that would mean that the world had become incomplete.
