On the other side, Lin Yun didn't ponder over the Rodney Family's matters, nor did he look for a place to heal. Instead, he sent a message to Faleau and directly went to the hill where Agalon was.
If Agalon hadn't personally made a move, he would have definitely died. Powerhouses above the 5th Rank of the Heaven realm were too frightening. They were unfathomably powerful and couldn't be resisted.
His injuries weren't too big of a problem, it was just that his strength would drop in the next few days.
He once again arrived at that seemingly ordinary hill, and the space there was the same as before. The distance between the foot of the hill and the peak had become infinitely long.
He skillfully summoned his Demiplane's shadow, and the Demiplane's projection automatically resisted the surrounding Laws. The Law Projection enveloped a few meters around Lin Yun and forcibly restored the Laws within that area to their original state. It took less than ten minutes for Lin Yun to easily reach the top of the hill.
When he reached the top of the hill, Agalon was lying on a recliner and looking at the sky above. There was no cloud in the sky, and there wasn't even a blue sky. It looked like a starry sky in the middle of a pure night.
Lin Yun didn't find anything strange about this place. If he slightly changed the space there and overlapped the space in the sky with the space above his head, the interference from the air in the sky would thoroughly disappear. It would be like standing in the starry sky and observing the starry sky.
Lin Yun respectfully bowed a few meters in front of Agalon.
"Many thanks for your support, Sir Agalon."
This thanks came from the bottom of his heart. The difference between the real Agalon and the Agalon recorded in history was too great. He was much more respectable than the one recorded in history.
Years of research were all in order to find the truth about Noscent's future destruction. If not for spending a lot of energy, Agalon might not have fallen so early. Surpassing the Heaven Rank and igniting his Godfire was inevitable. The disaster that befell the Starry Sky College and Agalon might be directly related to what Agalon was investigating.
Just because he felt that he was someone who could see the future, he unhesitantly supported me and even entrusted the Starry Sky College to me. He even helped me increase my strength, guided me in comprehending Laws, and guided me in the development and understanding of Demiplanes. Everything was for the sake of the disaster that would come in the future.
This time, he didn't hesitate to act personally. This was definitely a person worthy of respect …
Lin Yun's heart was a little complicated. There were many things that couldn't be said, because if he said it, he didn't know what would change, what would be affected, and whether the change would be good or bad.
Agalon only felt that he would fall in the disaster ten years later, that he was fated to fall, but Lin Yun knew that in the historical records, Agalon set foot on the path to the Starry Sky Battlefield after the disaster and never returned.
Looking at Agalon's indifferent expression, he didn't seem to think that it was unacceptable for him to die in ten years. Everything he did had nothing to do with his life.
After sighing inwardly, Lin Yun didn't say anything. He also didn't try to persuade Agalon not to go to the Starry Sky Battlefield ten years later, because it would be useless. It might even make Agalon more certain that the most important clue was in the Starry Sky Battlefield. When the disaster befell the Starry Sky College ten years later, Agalon would inevitably go to the Starry Sky Battlefield without any hesitation.
Everything was because of strength. With enough strength, he might be able to change that tragic ending. 'I'll think about it when the time comes.'
After thinking for a bit, Lin Yun made up his mind. He would increase his strength as much as possible, develop the Natural Demiplane, and save Agalon ten years later, or prevent the disaster from descending.
Agalon looked at the complicated expression on Lin Yun's face and softly sighed. He hadn't expected Lin Yun to think of these things. He thought that it was the first time Lin Yun felt the power of a powerhouse above the 5th Rank of the Heaven realm and had suffered a mental blow.
"Mafa, do you now know what the gap is between you and powerhouses above the 5th Rank of the Heaven realm?"
Lin Yun nodded with a calm expression.
"That's a qualitative gap. It's not something that can be made up for with mana and spells."
Agalon nodded.
"In the ancient Fiendgod Era, there were records of battles between Fiendgods and Fiendgods. One of the most important battles was the battle between the Ocean Lord and the Volcano Lord.
The Lord of the Ocean's magic power was vast and boundless. He had an ocean of magic power comparable to the Endless Sea. In terms of magic power, there were no more Gods and Demons than him. Even the king who sat on the throne of the Gods and Demons could not compare to the Lord of the Ocean in terms of magic power.
"As for the Volcano King's territory, it was located in the southern volcanoes of the continent, bordering the Sea King's territory. The struggle between them had never stopped. During the War of Gods, the Volcano King and the Sea King fought, but the result was somewhat unexpected.
"The Volcano King was only a weak God ranked in the sixties, while the Sea King was ranked in the twenties.
"In terms of territory, the Volcano King's territory was a few dozen times smaller than the Sea King's.
"But in the first battle between them, the Sea King's heart stopped beating forever. The Volcano King's power pierced through the terrifying mana that could destroy a plane and killed the Sea King."
Lin Yun was a bit startled. He vaguely remembered seeing such a record in the records of Gods, but it had only been mentioned briefly and no one had paid attention to it. 'Could there be something special about it?'
"This was a battle that changed Noscent's future development. From that time on, all lifeforms no longer paid attention to the amount of mana they had, but instead focused on the gap in essence.
"The era of huge bodies and tsunami-like attacks has long since passed. Ever since the start of the Nesser Dynasty, this concept has been integrated into common sense, and no one doubted it.
"And this all started with the fall of a powerful God. In this era, the gap between every rank is a gap in essence. When an Expert Swordsman fought a Sword Saint, the Sword Saint would only need to use a tenth of the Expert Swordsman's power to easily tear apart the opponent's body.
"This is the essence of rank suppression. It's the same for the Heaven Rank. The first three ranks of the Heaven Rank are only the accumulation of the comprehension of Laws. By using the power of Laws and Extraordinary Power, they can release power several dozen times stronger than an Archmage. Moreover, this is a gap in essence, it's not a gap in quantity.
"At the 4th Rank of the Heaven Rank, you can start using the Demiplane. The Demiplane's ability to bear the Laws will become stable and perfect, and it can already influence the surroundings."
In an instant, Lin Yun understood a bit. After entering the hillside where the Laws had changed, the Demiplane could help him resist the changed Laws and the projection of the Laws wouldn't affect him.
"The 5th Rank of the Heaven Rank is when you can truly start using the power of the Demiplane. It's also when the strength of a Heaven Rank powerhouse rapidly rises. The power of a plane is far more powerful than a mage's own power.
"We all have Natural Demiplanes, we're bound to be more powerful than all mages, because the Laws within the Natural Demiplane aren't something that only mages can comprehend, it's not something that only mages can comprehend.
"The Laws of the Natural Demiplane mainly rely on the evolution of the Natural Demiplane. This is also bound to make the Law Power within the Natural Demiplane more perfect, more comprehensive, and more powerful. Whether it is in essence or quantity, it far surpasses ordinary mages.
"This is the foundation you have to focus on. By using the Natural Demiplane, you can comprehend Laws a hundred times more easily than ordinary mages. You can comprehend many kinds of Laws, and when fighting, you can use the Natural Demiplane to have even more power.
"But now, you can only use the Natural Demiplane as a defense. Just like that ancestor of the Rodney Family, if he could perfectly use his perfectly developed Natural Demiplane, he would definitely be able to resist that attack without suffering a single injury.
"But you are only at the 3rd Rank of the Heaven realm, being able to survive is already pretty good.
"Next, I'll train you on how to use the Natural Demiplane."
For the next day, Agalon instilled a large amount of knowledge into Lin Yun. This knowledge was all Agalon's own experience. He had stumbled his way to this step, and he knew what was right and what was wrong. When he looked back, he would naturally be able to find the correct path.
As for Lin Yun, he wasn't too clear about this. Lin Yun clearly knew the things that ordinary Heaven Rank powerhouses needed to pay attention to, but Lin Yun had to figure out the best way to obtain a Natural Demiplane.
Because the number of powerhouses that obtained a Natural Demiplane in history could be counted on one's fingers, and everyone was different. Moreover, the research on Natural Demiplanes wasn't clearly recorded. After all, if one wanted to research a Natural Demiplane, there had to be a Natural Demiplane to research.
Lin Yun benefited a lot in one day. He had a very intuitive understanding of the Natural Demiplane and had a bit of an understanding of what he had to do next. Moreover, going all-out to develop the Natural Demiplane was a very wise choice. He kept letting the Natural Demiplane grow from the start, and it was a lot more perfect than Agalon's Natural Demiplane at the same rank. The degree of development was also a lot higher.
The next day, Lin Yun's injuries were more or less healed with the help of the potions, and there was no longer any problem. But at this time, Agalon suddenly spoke.
"I'll take you to a place."
After saying that, Agalon didn't give Lin Yun any opportunity to speak. He extended his hand and softly tapped in front of him. A faint ripple spread out and a stable Planar Path appeared.
The fluctuations of the Planar Path were very weak. Even if Lin Yun was standing next to it, he wouldn't be able to sense any powerful spatial fluctuations. It was even more stable than a large-scale array's Planar Path.
Agalon stepped onto the Planar Path. Lin Yun opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything and obediently followed behind Agalon.
After walking through the Planar Path and exiting the exit, a desolate world appeared before their eyes. There was no blue sky above their heads, it was as if they were directly exposed to the endless void. From time to time, they could see meteorites falling from the sky without any obstruction.
The extremely thin air was also filled with all kinds of toxins and the smell of rust.
A flash of understanding flashed in Lin Yun's eyes. Sure enough, it was the Puppet Plane!
Agalon released a five-meter-big shield to protect Lin Yun. He paused in the air for a bit before immediately choosing a direction. The shield concealed their auras and figures before turning into a ray of light and flying into the distance.
After a few minutes, the surroundings turned into a gorgeous radiance and thoroughly dissipated. When they reappeared, they were in the sky not far from a steel city.
That steel city was a lot bigger than any steel city Lin Yun had seen before. In the center of the steel city were three thousand-meter-tall, square-shaped steel towers that looked like rhinoceros horns. Energy could be seen roaming in the middle of the three steel towers, forming a several-dozen-meter-big energy sphere.
These three steel towers' defensive range was at least over a hundred kilometers. As long as a trace of a meteorite appeared in the sky, the alchemy devices within the three towers would calculate that the meteorite would fall within their defensive range and would immediately calculate the trajectory of the meteorite and release that energy sphere to intercept it.
Agalon looked at the steel city in the distance and softly pointed with his finger. A rune flew out and fell into the steel city. Soon, a huge bat-like puppet with a pair of ten-meter-long steel wings flew out of the steel city.
The puppet flew into the air like an enraged beast and let out a furious roar. Ripples followed its roar and spread in the surroundings. The dust floating in the air instantly disappeared after being swept by those ripples. The structure of the dust was shattered and turned into tiny fragments that couldn't be seen with the naked eye.
At the same time, Lin Yun felt an irresistible gentle power coming from his body that easily pushed him out of Agalon's concealment barrier.
"Mafa, this puppet is level 45 and its ability rune is Infrasonic Wave. The amount of Law Power it can use is limited and it doesn't have a Demiplane. It's just right for you, go get rid of that guy."
Lin Yun's face was a bit green. A level 45 puppet was comparable to a 5th Rank Heaven Mage. Even if that puppet's ability rune wasn't top-notch and it definitely couldn't compare to a 5th Rank Heaven Mage in a real fight, the gap was still very small!
If he were to fight against that puppet, he might end up getting killed. Lin Yun clearly understood that the gap between each rank of the Heaven Rank would keep increasing. The first 3 Ranks of the Heaven Rank were a bit better. After all, mages at that rank would only become stronger and would only be able to use Laws. The 5th Rank of the Heaven Rank was the start of controlling Laws. Their fighting strength would double, and it would be an intrinsic improvement!
Lin Yun simply didn't have time to think about other issues. He appeared in the air and was immediately discovered by that enraged puppet. He didn't know what Agalon was doing, but that guy looked like a beast that had its entire family killed. Only rage could be seen in its crystal eyes.
The Book of Death in his left hand, the Draconic Staff in his right hand, the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras, and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel all appeared. The Purple Dragon Incarnation within the Draconic Staff transformed into a hundred-meter-tall Purple Dragon that floated behind Lin Yun. That huge Dragon Claw was holding the huge wheel shadow that Lin Yun had manifested, and countless law runes were roaming within the wheel shadow.
The shadow of an ancient bronze scales appeared under his feet, and the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel fell on both sides of the scales. In an instant, a several-dozen-meter-tall huge Windfire Gate and a similarly sized wheel shadow simultaneously appeared on both sides of Lin Yun.
The terrifying power of wind and fire converged together, as well as the elemental storm of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, converged into a terrifying flood of destruction that rushed towards that huge bat-like puppet.
Lin Yun raised his Draconic Staff, and a large number of law runes flew out of the wheel shadow behind him. As Lin Yun hurriedly chanted an incantation, a Law Runic Bomb condensed and flew towards that huge bat puppet.
Facing this attack, the huge bat puppet flapped its wings and the ability rune under its throat instantly shone. A soundless roar came out of the huge bat's mouth. That was a sound that humans couldn't hear. Even if Lin Yun was already at the Heaven Rank, he still couldn't hear that kind of sound that was supported by ability runes.
Ripples appeared in the space, and they rapidly spread out with the huge bat puppet's mouth as the center. These ripples passed through the flood of wind and fire and the elemental storm without any hindrance. Fine vibrations appeared, and those pure wind and fire power were the first to be shattered. The wind power and fire power scattered before collapsing into the finest elemental power.
The elemental storm filled with pure destruction also faced such an outcome. After being pierced by the infrasound, the elemental storm instantly collapsed and all the power collapsed into the most basic four elements.
Even the original impact power disappeared along with that vibration. The power of the Book of Mantras and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel only increased the density of the surrounding elemental power by a few times. Apart from that, it didn't have any other effect.
Even the Law Runic Bomb Lin Yun released exploded in midair after flying for four hundred meters. The destructive power instantly expanded to several dozen meters, but it then collapsed into a large amount of elemental power that filled the air.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yun's heart brightened. He burst out with his full power right from the start, but the other side only needed to roar to make all the power collapse into the most basic elemental power. How could he still fight?
After that attack, the huge bat puppet flapped its wings and instantly disappeared. An afterimage crossed over a kilometer and appeared in front of Lin Yun in a second. Those sharp claws flickered with cold light as they ruthlessly grabbed at Lin Yun's Fusion Shield.
