Although Ofran had reminded them before he left that Sir Ryan might be unhappy if word of what happened today got out, which of the dozen or so Elders of the Merlin Family didn't have friends or relatives behind them?
No one wanted to see their friends or relatives offend Mafa Merlin because of a moment of carelessness. This wasn't a joke. It was better not to provoke that kind of pervert who killed people at the slightest provocation. They only had one life, and not everyone was like Aube Merlin, who had a father who could compete with that pervert …
Thus, in one night, many people of the Merlin Family knew that Mafa Merlin couldn't be provoked. Whoever provoked him would be unlucky.
As for why they couldn't provoke him …
Only a dozen or so Elders knew about it. It couldn't be helped, what happened at the Elder Council couldn't be spread. It was a scandal for the Merlin Family. A dozen or so Elders had joined hands to plot against a young disciple, but three of them were killed and one was seriously injured. If this spread, the Merlin Family's face would be thrown to the ground …
Of course, Lin Yun didn't know about this …
Lin Yun only knew that ever since the Elder Council, he had started to act differently in the Merlin Family Manor. Especially those Elders who had participated in the Elder Council. When they saw him, they would look at him with fear and worry, as if he was carrying a plague …
Whenever Lin Yun walked past a place, no one would dare to approach within a hundred meters …
It could be said that in the entire Merlin Family, there were only a few people who dared to approach Lin Yun. Ross Merlin, William Merlin, and the little girl adopted by William Merlin's elder sister, Lanre …
Strangely, that little girl named Lanre was originally eccentric and introverted. Apart from William Merlin, she rarely came in contact with anyone from the Merlin Family.
But after Lin Yun stayed in William Merlin's elder sister's house for over ten days, the little girl unexpectedly became familiar with him. She didn't run away as quickly as before, and sometimes, she would even be bold enough to whisper a few words to Lin Yun!
Lin Yun was very happy about this change. As the owner of the Quicksand Eye, Lanre had a better future in Lin Yun's eyes than the Draconic Beastman.
But considering Lanre's age, Lin Yun didn't spoil her from the start. Instead, he spent a few days teaching Lanre a Pureblood Elven Physique. Naturally, when he told Lanre, Lin Yun only told her that this was a body-tempering Physique and that if she practiced hard, she would grow taller faster.
Seeing the little girl happily practicing this Physique, Lin Yun couldn't help smiling bitterly. If those Pureblood Elves knew that the Elven Royal Family's supreme Physique was being taught as a child's exercise, who knew if they would be so angry that they would jump out of their graves …
After over a month, no one disturbed Lin Yun, and he once again became low-key. Lin Yun started spending his time on the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and the Doom Staff.
In the Elder Council, Lin Yun had fought against Thorne Merlin and relied on the three True Spirit Magic Tools to fight to a draw with Thorne Merlin, who was close to the 5th Rank of the Sword Saint realm. The power displayed by those three True Spirit Magic Tools made everyone gasp in amazement, especially the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. It burst out three times and killed three Elders, leaving a shadow in everyone's hearts. A few particularly timid Elders would shiver when they saw their plates.
But in Lin Yun's eyes …
Whether it was the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel or the Doom Staff, they still hadn't displayed their true power.
After all, Lin Yun had thought that these two True Spirit Magic Tools would reach the peak of the True Spirit Realm in the future, or even surpass the True Spirit Realm and become Extraordinary existences. Even if these two True Spirit Magic Tools hadn't fully matured and their power was lacking, it shouldn't be lacking to this extent. The three True Spirit Magic Tools couldn't thoroughly suppress Thorne Merlin, this in itself was very abnormal.
Lin Yun knew that this was because the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and the Doom Staff had just been born and hadn't been fully grasped by him.
The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was a bit better.
After all, with Anderfa as a bridge, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and the Magic Array could fuse together, allowing him to cast as he wished.
The Doom Staff was quite miserable. It was completely made of Augments and had yet to give birth to a Magic Tool Incarnation. In battle, it was almost completely controlled by Lin Yun and hadn't displayed the power of a True Spirit Magic Tool.
Thus, what Lin Yun needed to do now was to make the Doom Staff give birth to a Magic Tool Incarnation as soon as possible.
But it wasn't a simple matter for a True Spirit Magic Tool to give birth to a Magic Tool Incarnation. Not only did it require resources and time, but it also required opportunities.
Moreover, the more powerful the True Spirit Magic Tool, the more difficult it was to give birth to a Magic Tool Incarnation.
But Lin Yun wasn't in a hurry.
Because Lin Yun knew that if nothing unexpected happened, there would be an opportunity waiting for him in Okland. That opportunity would most likely make the Doom Staff give birth to a Magic Tool Incarnation.
But before that, he had to reach the 5th Rank of the High Mage realm.
After confirming this, Lin Yun no longer cared about the two True Spirit Magic Tools and instead spent all his time on magic. After spending a month, Lin Yun finally used the battle with Thorne Merlin to smoothly advance and become a 2nd Rank High Mage.
But then, Lin Yun felt that something was wrong.
After becoming a 2nd Rank High Mage, Lin Yun could clearly feel that the fusion between the Magic Array and the Meditation Law Set had become even tighter, to the point where it felt like they were inseparable.
'Looks like I have to go to the Tulan Mountain Range as soon as possible …' This change was somewhat outside of Lin Yun 'expectations.
In Lin Yun's plan, he would go to the Tulan Mountain Range to look for the Gaugass King's Meditation Law Set when he was close to the 5th Rank of the High Mage realm, because his strength would have reached its peak at that time. Once he found the Gaugass King's Meditation Law Set, he would immediately be able to use the power of the three Meditation Law Sets to smoothly step into the 5th Rank of the High Mage realm.
But the Magic Array being too powerful made some unforeseen changes to this plan.
This sounded ridiculous, but Lin Yun was now facing such a ridiculous problem.
Nothing could be done about it, Lin Yun had ten Magic Arrays, the power of which could be said to be unprecedented. Although Lin Yun did his best to prevent the Meditation Law Set from fusing with the Magic Array, there was still a small unforeseen event when advancing to the 2nd Rank of the High Mage realm.
Fortunately, this small change was still within Lin Yun's acceptable range.
But if he advanced to the 3rd Rank, or even the 4th Rank of the High Mage realm, Lin Yun wasn't sure.
Once the Meditation Law Set was completely fused with the Magic Array, even if he obtained the Gaugass King's Meditation Law Set, he wouldn't be able to fuse the three Meditation Law Sets together.
This was something Lin Yun absolutely didn't want to see.
In the next half a month, Lin Yun didn't practice magic. Instead, he looked for Ofran and asked for a pass to the Merlin Family's alchemy laboratory before spending all day in the laboratory.
At this time, it could be seen how serious the consequences of the Elder Council's battle were.
It was reasonable to say that the Merlin Family's alchemy laboratory was public. As long as one had a pass, they could freely enter and exit. In fact, Ross Merlin and William Merlin had said that under normal circumstances, the Merlin Family's alchemy laboratory would have dozens of alchemists coming in and out, each occupying an area without interfering with the other as they carried out their own research and experiments.
But once Lin Yun left …
The entire alchemy laboratory immediately became empty.
The alchemists that usually came in and out of the laboratory seemed to have discussed it beforehand, each one running faster than the last. In less than three days, no other alchemists could be seen in the laboratory.
'Am I that scary …' Seeing this situation, Lin Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
'But forget it, it's good that the alchemy laboratory is empty, I can use some technology that doesn't belong to this era …'
Another half a month passed, and Lin Yun ate and lived in the alchemy laboratory. No one knew what he was doing inside, because no one dared to go in and watch.
Up until half a month later, when Lin Yun opened the door to the alchemy laboratory and called Ross Merlin and William Merlin to have them take out over a hundred potions, the two finally understood how much wealth their cousin had squandered in the past half a month.
"Call Xiuban, we're going to the Tulan Mountain Range." After saying this, Lin Yun started his final preparations.
The most important thing was that the Book of Death needed to be recharged.
For this reason, Lin Yun specially opened the Planar Path and went to the Bone Plane. With the help of the Gilded Rose's mercenary group, he swept through the black wasteland and replenished a large amount of Soul Fires, allowing the Book of Death to reach its peak state.
But after returning from the Bone Plane, Lin Yun suddenly discovered that there was one more person in William Merlin's older sister's house.
"Cousin Mafa, I know you want to go to the Tulan Mountain Range …" Leon Merlin stood there with an excited expression before saying something that almost made Lin Yun spit blood, "How about taking me with you?"
"…" Lin Yun thought for a long time, but he couldn't understand. Since when did he and Leon Merlin become so close?
Yes, they did have a meal together after the Elder's Meeting. However, it was just a meal. How could this guy think that he was so close to him that he could bring him to the Tulan Mountain Range?
Moreover, how did he know that he wanted to go to the Tulan Mountain Range?
