"Alright, the others stay and rest. Anderfa, follow me, we are going to dig something …"
"What thing?"
"Another Ancient God's soul fragment!"
"…"
Previously, Enderfa had told Lin Yun that before the Ancient God's soul fragment awakened, there would only be benefits to the Demiplane. He also advised Lin Yun to use this special environment to increase his magic power as quickly as possible.
It was reasonable to say that there was no problem with Enderfa's suggestion.
But Anderfa didn't know that Lin Yun came from 30,000 years in the future.
After going through the baptism of the peak of the magic era and witnessing Noscent's destruction, Lin Yun's ambition in the field of magic surpassed that of any mage of this era.
To the mages of this era, the Archmage realm or the Heaven Rank was already a lifelong dream. Even existences like Star Sage Joy only dreamed of one day transcending the Heaven Rank.
But Lin Yun …
Lin Yun's ambition was much greater than theirs.
Archmages could be seen everywhere at the peak of the Magic Era. Many Heaven Rank powerhouses also fell in the disaster of the Tulan Mountain Range. So what if they were existences that transcended the Heaven Rank? When Noscent reached its end, they would also fall from the clouds.
After 30,000 years, the world would fall.
To ordinary people, this might be groundless worries. 30,000 years was too long, it was enough for an ordinary person to reincarnate two to three hundred times.
But to a mage, especially a mage like Lin Yun, this was a very real problem.
Lin Yun was in his twenties and had already stepped into the High Mage realm. As long as he didn't court death, living for a few hundred years wouldn't be a problem.
And he was only a High Mage …
With Lin Yun's knowledge and experience, as well as the accumulation of ten Magic Arrays, it was only a matter of time before he stepped into the Archmage realm, or even the Heaven Rank.
The lifespan of an Archmage was already over a millennium.
Heaven Rank powerhouses could live for several millennia.
As for the Undead Monarch Sandro or Charles the Conqueror …
In Noscent's history, there had never been a natural death of such a powerhouse.
To Lin Yun, this wasn't a fantasy. As long as Lin Yun didn't fall midway, he would be able to transcend the Heaven Rank as long as he spent time on it.
At that time, Lin Yun would have no choice but to face a problem. Should he escape into a spatial crack like Zendrall and Charlie, or should he stay with Noscent and wait for the final moment?
In fact, regardless of the choice, it was a decision made under helplessness. Whether it was escaping into a crack in time and space or waiting for the final moment with Noscent, they were both handing their fate to the unknown. No one knew what the final outcome would be.
Lin Yun didn't want that …
What Lin Yun wanted was to truly control his own fate. If powerhouses like Zendrall and Charlie couldn't control their own fate, then Lin Yun would be more powerful than them, powerful enough to control his own fate.
If he wanted to reach that level, he definitely couldn't walk the path of others.
It was the same even if those people had created an unprecedented and glorious magic civilization.
Thus, Lin Yun had always been trying to walk his own magic path. The Magic Array was like this, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was like this, every step Lin Yun took was made after countless deductions and careful deliberation. He was sure that taking that step would bring him closer to his final goal.
Anderfa's suggestion was correct.
But Lin Yun wasn't willing to meditate in that kind of environment. Relying on external power to accumulate mana wouldn't truly belong to him. He might be able to rely on this kind of rapid accumulation to quickly reach the Archmage realm, but what about after that?
What would he rely on to reach the Heaven Rank?
Naturally …
It didn't matter if he didn't need it, there were plenty of people who did.
Thus, Lin Yun made William Merlin write that letter.
The fifty Great Mages of the chamber of commerce's mercenary group were crying piteously for food. The unique environment of the Demiplane was what they needed the most.
Originally, they were the worst batch of the Merlin Family, and they might never reach the Great Mage realm. But they met Lin Yun by chance and were sent to the Bone Plane by Lin Yun, successfully obtaining the power of a Great Mage. Everything they had now was already profitable.
They didn't even think about becoming High Mages.
Not to mention the worry of not being able to reach the Heaven Rank.
With this idea in mind, everything else was naturally easy to decide. Since he had to go to Crystal Island to seek a solution in the future, he might as well dig out the other soul fragment of the Ancient Deity. A single soul fragment was already emitting such frightening power. What about the other two?
Now, that was what Lin Yun wanted to do.
The six Mage Eyes kept scanning every corner of the valley, while Lin Yun used Haste and followed behind Anderfa, rushing towards the 2nd Ancient Tree at an astonishing speed.
With his experience in the Four Seasons Canyon, Lin Yun quickly found the 2nd Ancient Tree in the valley. Sure enough, it was the same as the Four Seasons Canyon. The 2nd Ancient Tree was located in the densest part of the valley, and the surroundings looked like they were overnourished. The towering vines of the tree grew crazily, and from time to time, a few magic beasts would appear, each more powerful than the last. Lin Yun spent a lot of effort to cross the obstacles and stand in front of that huge Ancient Tree.
"Another True Spirit Array …" The trunk of the tree was covered in numerous patterns, and Lin Yun only needed one glance to know that this was a True Spirit Array. But this was no longer a problem for the current Lin Yun. Lin Yun fished out a crystal pen and Melting Snow Ink from his pocket before casually instructing Anderfa, "Anderfa, control the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and be in charge of protecting it."
"Alright!" Anderfa had one good point, he knew when to put in effort and when to slack off, he wasn't like Shawn, who would haggle all the time.
As the crystal pen dipped in Melting Snow Ink fell on the trunk of the tree, a rustling sound echoed in the surroundings, and all kinds of mana fluctuations started spreading through the forest.
Then, the beast tide appeared.
But Lin Yun didn't turn his head. The crystal pen dipped in Melting Snow Ink quickly wrote profound runes on the trunk of the tree, not even glancing at the beast tide behind him.
Because Lin Yun believed that Anderfa would take care of everything.
Sure enough …
Enderfa didn't panic in the slightest when facing this berserk beast tide. Under his control, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel displayed a completely different style, precise and efficient.
Although it wasn't like Lin Yun's, where every burst of spells was like a flood, the efficiency was breathtaking. Each rotation seemed to take the life of a magic beast, there was no excess or waste. Even Lin Yun, who was in the middle of cracking the True Spirit Array, had no choice but to admit that this kind of control was something even he couldn't accomplish.
Because he was only the master of the Magic Tool.
As for Anderfa, he was the Magic Tool itself!
After becoming the Magic Tool Incarnation, Anderfa was the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was Anderfa. Their relationship was even closer than Lin Yun, the master of the Magic Tool.
This kind of control could only appear when the Magic Tool Incarnation was controlling the Magic Tool.
Lin Yun spent thirty minutes cracking that True Spirit Array. After thirty minutes, a thick pile of corpses was piled up on the ground. Blood soaked the soil under his feet, and a thick smell of blood spread through the forest, lingering for a long time.
"Inform Cousin William and the others to take care of these corpses …" Lin Yun looked over and saw that there was no lack of powerful level 27 or 28 existences among the pile of corpses. Although this level was born from the power of an Ancient God, it wouldn't affect the quality of their mana crystals. It would be too wasteful to casually leave them here.
"Okay." Anderfa returned to the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and started sending a magic signal to William, Merlin, and the others in accordance with the previously agreed method.
As for Lin Yun, he summoned a few Rock Puppets and started digging under the Ancient Tree.
By the time William, Merlin, and the others arrived, Lin Yun was already halfway through his excavation. The group looked at the pile of magic beasts' corpses and didn't know what to say.
'This is the gap …'
They had fought their way from the Aurij Mountain Range, and the three Merlin brothers and Xiuban had fought for two days and one night, yet they hadn't even killed half of the magic beasts here.
'Damnit, humans really can't be compared to monsters …'
"Cousins, help me take care of the magic beasts' corpses. Collect those mana crystals and bring them back to Okland, it'll be quite a bit of income …" Lin Yun instructed while directing the Rock Puppets to excavate the second Ancient God's soul fragment.
"Okay, no problem." The three of them were veterans at this kind of thing, and after hearing Lin Yun's instructions, they immediately got to work.
Soon, half of the pile of magic beasts' corpses had been taken care of, and several dozen mana crystals of different levels were piled up together, emitting a gorgeous seven-colored radiance.
And at this time, Lin Yun also finished the last part of the excavation. Under the rotation of his Magic Array, he could already feel a familiar mana fluctuation.
"Found it!"
Lin Yun was suddenly overjoyed. He ordered a few Rock Puppets to bring out that gem that resembled a mana crystal from a deep hole in the ground.
"Shit, something's wrong!" But at this time, Anderfa suddenly let out a cry of alarm.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yun was startled.
"Throw it away, throw it away! This soul fragment isn't completely dormant!" Anderfa's voice kept echoing from the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, filled with anxiety and fear.
"Shit!" Lin Yun was almost scared to death when he heard this. Sure enough, that soul fragment in his hand truly carried a strange aura.
That was a very strange feeling, cold and burning, two completely different feelings appearing at the same time. At this time, Lin Yun was holding that Ancient God's soul fragment as if he was holding a block of ice, but it was also like he was holding a ball of flame. One cold and one hot, the two feelings alternated.
And the most frightening part was …
In a daze, Lin Yun seemed to hear a deafening roar. That roar seemed to come from a very far place, but it also seemed to echo in his ears. It contained an irresistible power and majesty, and when it reached his ears, Lin Yun felt as if his soul was being pulled out of his body by some kind of power. He could no longer control his body, he couldn't even move a finger.
"Fuck …" This was the first time Lin Yun faced the power of an Ancient God, and he was scared silly.
