In a battle between powerhouses, no matter how powerful a spell was, it wouldn't be able to hit the enemy. No matter how powerful a spell was, it was no different from a 1st Tier Spell. Only spells that could achieve combat effects could be considered truly useful spells.
Just as Lin Yun fired the second Railgun, Max didn't stop his incantation. Terrifying mana fluctuations were already appearing around his body, and the shadow of a crystal-like monster appeared behind him. The monster didn't have limbs, it didn't have a head, it was as if countless crystals were pieced together. It was a monster with only a torso. The surface of the monster was covered in numerous magic patterns, and the interior of its translucent body was also covered in complex magic patterns.
The second Electromagnetic Cannon was fired, and at the same time, a breeze appeared around Max's body. The power of the breeze was very weak for a Heaven Rank powerhouse, but the power of the breeze was like a pair of gentle hands that moved Max a meter to the side.
A meter was enough to dodge the Electromagnetic Cannon's frontal attack. He only needed to resist the impact of the Electromagnetic Cannon's attack. And that impact was completely negligible compared to the Electromagnetic Cannon's own impact. At least it wouldn't tear through that arc-shaped crystal shield.
A smile could be seen in Max's eyes as he looked at the distant Lin Yun. The crystal monster shadow behind him also seemed to be using a special method to look at Lin Yun's silhouette. Crystal flowers were revolving around Max and the bright crystals blossomed with a gorgeous radiance.
Only a small amount of mana usage, which wasn't even a 1st Tier Spell, could break Mafa Merlin's powerful spell.
'A youth like Mafa Merlin might never understand this point. Spells can only be considered spells if they are used well. If they aren't used well, they would only be powerful trash.
'Unfortunately, he will never have the opportunity to understand this point. It's a pity that such a genius fell. If he was somewhere else, he would have definitely joined our Crown of Thorns. Unfortunately …
As long as that spell was activated, even if he comprehended the Space Law, he wouldn't be able to dodge it. He would be annihilated along with the space. What a pity …
Mercy could be seen in Max's eyes as he slightly closed his eyes, seemingly unwilling to see Lin Yun fall. The Crystal Monster's shadow behind him was already starting to emit strange fluctuations, a sign that a spell was about to be cast.
At this time, the second railgun had already started shuttling through space. According to the normal trajectory, that railgun definitely wouldn't hit Max. But just as the railgun left the muzzle, a spatial rune suddenly shone on its surface and the space in front of the railgun slightly distorted.
The electromagnetic cannon, which was originally flying in a straight line, drew an arc in the air, but its speed didn't decrease at all as it hit Max's Crystal Shield head-on.
The Crystal Shield was already covered in cracks and couldn't recover in such a short time. It had also lost the support of the seven-colored crystal ball, so how could it resist the power of the second railgun?
The moment the railgun hit the Crystal Shield, the Crystal Shield shattered like glass. The remaining power of the railgun hit Max's body and he felt a huge sense of crisis. Max only had a bit left of his incantation, but he couldn't continue no matter what.
His body instinctively reacted and a large amount of crystals appeared on the surface of Max's body. His body was sealed in a huge crystal, and the incomplete spell was also interrupted.
After the electromagnetic cannon hit Max's body, it exploded into pieces. The terrifying power of the electromagnetic cannon hit the surface of the solid crystal that was wrapped around Max. Even the solid cannon couldn't withstand the huge force. The crystal that was wrapped around Max's body was also blasted away by the terrifying force. It turned into an afterimage and left a trail of light in the sky. It crossed a distance of seven to eight kilometers and crashed into a mountain …
The earth shook as a hundred-meter-wide hole appeared halfway up the mountain. At the bottom of that hole was an eight-meter-wide hole that reached the belly of the mountain.
Flames and lightning swam around the hole, and the strange magic beasts in the surroundings seemed to have sensed something terrifying and frantically fled into the distance.
Lin Yun flew over and floated in the air, looking at that huge hole. He didn't make a move and instead calmly waited.
The surface of the crystal covering Max was covered in cracks. There was a half-meter-wide depression on the surface, and fine cracks were spreading from that depression to the inside of the crystal.
A few seconds later, the crystal shattered and dissipated. Max's face was pale, and there was a trace of disbelief in his eyes. His mana fluctuations had become a little chaotic, and there seemed to be small bugs crawling under his skin. Max's face alternated between pale and red for a dozen seconds before he completely stabilized. The "small bugs" crawling under his skin had also disappeared.
He spat out a mouthful of blood and the blood turned into a pile of blood-colored crystal fragments in the air. He raised his head once again, his crystal eyes flickering with disbelief and shock.
'I didn't expect that Mafa Merlin to be so powerful. The spell he researched might have already made up for the flaw of flying in a straight line. The first spell was only to numb me, he simply didn't want to kill me. The second spell was the one that truly achieved his goal.
'Such frightening computing ability, in less than a second, he was able to determine how to hit my body. The first spell sent my Crystal Magic Tool flying, the second spell broke my Crystal Shield. If I hadn't had my final defensive measure, I might have already been torn to shreds.
'How did he do it? How did he do it in less than a second?'
Shock could be seen on Max's face. He couldn't understand. The higher the strength, the more troublesome a battle between powerhouses would be. Unless one had an overwhelming advantage, it would be very difficult to thoroughly kill their opponent. No matter how powerful a spell was, it would be useless if it couldn't hit the enemy or break through their defenses.
Thus, he chose the most dangerous Crystal Monster when fusing with his bloodline. Spells had the ability to break through magic and could easily break through a mage's shield.
Moreover, the special nature of crystal spells was enough to give him an unimaginable defensive ability.
That was the first thing that was needed to hit the enemy. Then, the spell could break through the opponent's defenses, and only then would it be possible to kill the opponent.
But in such an intense battle, it was basically impossible to perfectly grasp every tiny change and make the most perfect response in an evenly matched battle. Unleashing one hundred and twenty percent of one's fighting strength would mean that one's energy would be tightly tied up …
Max hadn't expected that he would be hit head-on. Recalling everything that had just happened, Max felt cold sweat trickling down his back. He suddenly felt that he had completely underestimated his opponent.
While Max was still conflicted, an electromagnetic cannon shot out of the hole. The huge power of the electromagnetic cannon burst out in this narrow space, and its power was even more terrifying than outside. Max's body was like a nail that kept being pounded into the depths of the mountain.
Max was like a live target. After being hit by three consecutive electromagnetic cannons, the crystal that appeared on the surface of his body was already full of cracks. Just one more attack would shatter his final defense. Even if he had other methods that he could use to block the attacks, he didn't know what would happen to him if this continued.
His original arrogance had completely disappeared, replaced by a kind of seriousness when facing a real opponent.
Just as Max was about to risk his life, the electromagnetic cannons suddenly disappeared and Lin Yun's calm voice echoed.
"Sir Max, could it be that you are planning to take an afternoon nap inside?"
A trace of regret could be seen on Lin Yun's face. Such a good opportunity to attack continuously, Max simply didn't have the opportunity to dodge. Based on the frequency of the attacks, Max would have become a living target in that hundred-meter-deep hole and would have been blasted to death by the electromagnetic cannons.
But unfortunately, he didn't have such an opportunity. Max had smashed into the mountain at a slanted angle. Based on that angle, one more electromagnetic cannon would be enough to send Max through the entire mountain and fall from the other side. At that time, there wouldn't be such a good opportunity to get rid of Max, and that last electromagnetic cannon wouldn't be able to get rid of him.
More importantly, after Max was sent flying, the remaining ten Heaven Rank powerhouses had already chased after him. He simply didn't have time to keep attacking. He would have to face the siege of a dozen Heaven Rank powerhouses. Even if they were 1st or 2nd Rank Heaven powerhouses, Lin Yun would be able to get rid of them within three seconds if he burst with all his strength. But there was no need to fight if Max was added to the mix.
Since that was the case, it was better to negotiate. Anyway, the main purpose of chasing after these people was to stop them from messing around unscrupulously here. According to their original behavior, it wouldn't be long before they attracted the most terrifying danger. When that time came, everyone in this plane would be in for a ride of misfortune.
Lin Yun seemed to have taken the initiative to concede. After a dozen seconds, Max flew out of the hole, his robe already in tatters. A seven-colored crystal ball flew over from a distance and revolved around his body. Max floated in the air and looked at Lin Yun with a solemn expression. He was clearly on guard, but he didn't attack again.
Max didn't know that Lin Yun didn't get rid of him because he couldn't. If the battle continued, everyone would go all-out and fight for a few hours. At that time, everyone would be out of luck.
Through angle, power, and speed, he calculated his position in the mountain. Apart from Lin Yun, who was using the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to make deductions, no one else would spend a lot of energy on this.
Max hadn't thought of it, he only felt that Lin Yun wanted to talk about something else.
With the corresponding strength, there would be a chance to talk. Lin Yun had an indifferent expression. He simply didn't care about the surrounding Heaven Rank powerhouses. Among the dozen Heaven Rank powerhouses, a few couldn't help but attack. Max waved his hand.
"Stop."
After making his Heaven Rank powerhouses stop, Max solemnly looked at Lin Yun.
"Lord Merlin, I admit that I underestimated you. Moreover, you had the opportunity to kill me."
Lin Yun ignored Max's words and said to himself, "Sir Maxwell, I discovered this plane first.
"Your Excellency Maxwell, I discovered this plane first. I've been here many times," the old man said.
Max's expression suddenly changed, but before he could say anything, Lin Yun kept talking.
"Are you going to say that since I discovered this plane earlier than you, why didn't I conquer it, didn't I develop it, didn't I plunder its resources …"
Max didn't say anything, he only calmly listened, tacitly agreeing.
"You should have discovered that the magic beasts in this plane are of very low levels. At least for this plane's mana level, coupled with the blue sun that emits mana radiance, the number of Extraordinary creatures that can be nurtured here is very high, and very strong.
"But here, there are only some magic beasts with souls equivalent to insects. There are very few Extraordinary lifeforms, the strongest is only at the 1st or 2nd Rank of the Heaven realm, and their fighting power might not be comparable to a 1st or 2nd Rank Heaven Mage. But the magic beasts here, regardless of their species, all live in groups.
"Do you know why? It's because they are just a group of insects compared to this plane. "
Hearing Lin Yun's words, Max's expression suddenly changed. Lin Yun didn't explain, but Max understood. These magic beasts were equivalent to Noscent's insects, those insects that ordinary people could casually pinch to death. At most, they were below the 5th Rank.
In a normally developed plane, these things would be at the lowest level. They would never be able to occupy important positions. It was also impossible for them to be like this plane, filled with these insects with incomplete souls. It was like a small insect's soul being stuffed into the body of a level 20 magic beast. Using this kind of soul to control such a powerful body, it looked like the soul was broken, or even just some soul fragments …
This plane didn't have any advanced lifeforms, nor did it have any intelligent lifeforms. Based on this plane's abundant mana and that blue sun emitting mana radiance, even a rock would be able to give birth to the radiance of life after being illuminated for a few millennia.
But here, there were no signs of intelligent life at all. This was too abnormal, so abnormal that it was scary. Either there was a fatal flaw in this plane, or there was a terrifying danger to life in this plane, making it impossible for intelligent life to be born here, let alone intelligent life …
As the Great Elder of the Crown of Thorns, he was the person with the most authority in the Crown of Thorns. It wasn't just because he was powerful, but also because he had a very thorough understanding of magic. Although the Crown of Thorns had fallen too much compared to the beginning, they were still pursuing the true meaning of magic. It was just that some people had distorted this concept …
Max quickly thought of a lot of possibilities, and then looked at Lin Yun in shock. He was now completely convinced that Lin Yun had discovered this plane a long time ago, and that he had a very deep understanding of this plane. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to discover such a deep problem right after entering this plane.
At the same time, since they couldn't eliminate the other side and couldn't monopolize it, cooperating with Lin Yun to explore this plane was the best choice given that he had a deep understanding of this plane.
"Lord Merlin, do you mean that we should cooperate to explore this plane? How are we going to distribute the benefits … "
Before Max could finish his sentence, Lin Yun calmly interrupted him.
"Mr. Max, isn't the purpose of your exploration of this plane to find something in this special plane that can alleviate the conflict between the mutant bloodlines?
"Or are you doing this purely for benefits? "If it's purely for benefits, then we can evenly divide the benefits of this plane. Since you all feel that benefits are more important than your own lives, I don't mind losing some benefits."
Max's expression suddenly changed, and even the auras of the surrounding Heaven Mages became chaotic.
"How do you know?"
Max shouted in alarm and fear. After shouting those words, he realized that he had lost control.
Lin Yun disdainfully glanced at Max with a wisp of pity.
"Crystal Spells … Only some humans with special talents or special bloodlines can master them, but they can't summon Magic Penetration Crystals like those crazy Crystal Monsters.
"Moreover, you can condense crystal defenses around your body. Apart from transplanting the bloodline of a Crystal Monster, is there any other possibility?
"Your seven-colored crystal Magic Tool, your eyes, and the bloodline implanted in your body all came from a Crystal Monster. It should be a Crystal Monster called Stark. The only sound it can make is a syllable similar to 'Stark'." Moreover, since you can reach the 5th Rank of the Heaven realm, that Stark should be at least level 40. The bloodline was transplanted when you were at the 9th Rank of the Archmage realm.
"Unfortunately, if I were you, I would have left one of my eyes and fused the two crystal eyes into one. Every day, there would be a period of time when your eyes would fiercely tremble and have a mana conflict. Isn't that very uncomfortable?"
After Lin Yun finished his words, Max couldn't hide the shock on his face. His lips were shivering as he looked at Lin Yun as if he was looking at a terrifying existence.
How did he know? No one had ever known about these things. How did he know? Could it be that he knew everything about me just by fighting with me for a short period of time?
