It was followed by a muffled scream as the Lesser Flame Overlord's arm was pierced by that Frost Spear and the flames coiling around it quickly dimmed. Apparently, the Lesser Flame Overlord hadn't expected Lin Yun to have the ability to control two Elemental Incarnations at the same time and was caught off guard, suffering a huge loss.
Although they were shocked by Lin Yun's methods, Delson and Olaro, the two Archmages, quickly entered the battle. Just as the Lesser Flame Overlord's arm was crippled, they used a Flame Flash and appeared in front of the Lesser Flame Overlord, showering it with spells.
At this time, the Lesser Flame Overlord's movements were somewhat sluggish, the fierce offensive was making it very strenuous for him. He let out two deep roars as he angrily glared at Lin Yun. That level 36 Hellish lifeform had human-like intelligence and knew that the young mage was the core of this group. As long as it killed him, it would naturally obtain victory.
With a "swish", the flames on the Lesser Flame Overlord's body suddenly soared. It had a unique advantage in this Flame Domain and fiercely moved, instantly rushing in front of Lin Yun before raising its huge arm and smashing it down!
"Heavens …"
Seeing this scene, Rolf's face instantly turned deathly pale, cold sweat drenching his back. He truly hadn't expected that the Lesser Flame Overlord's speed would increase to such a degree within the Flame Domain. Even with his 3rd Rank Phantom Archer eyesight, he could only catch a trace of an afterimage.
The most important thing was the Lesser Flame Overlord's power, it was powerful to the point of despair. Even a 5th Rank Sword Saint with Aura Defense would most likely be seriously injured or even killed by that Lesser Flame Overlord's attack.
This was the power of Hellish lifeforms.
Rolf only heard a loud rumble and his expression became extremely unsightly. He clearly saw the Lesser Flame Overlord's sturdy arm falling down, causing lava to splatter everywhere.
Under such frightening power, although Mafa Merlin's Ice Elemental Incarnation was astonishing, it was only astonishing. Even a 5th Rank Sword Saint couldn't resist that power, let alone a trifling Ice Elemental Incarnation.
What a pity …
This young mage had exceeded his expectations time and time again. From a 2nd Rank High Mage, he had transformed into an existence comparable to an Archmage, and then he used Dual Elemental Incarnations in the Flame Domain.
These scenes appeared in Ralf's mind one after another.
He felt sorry for Lin Yun …
In his eyes, this monstrous mage's future accomplishments were limitless. He might even reach the peak of the Archmage realm in a few decades, and he might even have the opportunity to touch upon Extraordinary Power.
But it was useless to say anything now. In order to help the three mercenary groups resist the Lesser Flame Overlord, the young mage had risked his life and fought without holding anything back, but his final outcome was …
But just as everyone thought that Lin Yun was dead, a red-and-white silhouette appeared in front of them. He was covered in a thick layer of white ice armor wrapped in a layer of red flames. He suddenly brandished his ice-armored arm and punched the Lesser Flame Overlord's chest. With a "snap" sound, his arm pierced through the Lesser Flame Overlord's chest. He then grabbed and pulled out a continuously beating flame heart.
"Rumble!"
When the flame heart was pulled out of the Lesser Flame Overlord's body, the Lesser Flame Overlord's several-dozen-meter-tall body suddenly stiffened and the flames on its body were extinguished. A gust of wind blew and its pitch-black body turned to ashes. The lava within a hundred meters also solidified at the same time. A few volcanoes in the surroundings fiercely changed and stopped erupting.
'Hmm?'
After the pale-faced Lin Yun got rid of his Dual Elemental Incarnations, his gaze was attracted by a certain location. It was a volcano, and a stone tablet had appeared at the mouth of the volcano. Without hesitation, he waved his hand and three Mage Eyes flew over.
No one was alive …
Lin Yun was truly startled when he saw the words engraved on the stone tablet.
The Lesser Flame Overlord's aura thoroughly disappeared and everyone sighed in relief, including Lin Yun. That level 36 Lesser Flame Overlord wasn't easy to deal with.
Especially in its Flame Domain, the Lesser Flame Overlord's magic immunity had reached a terrifying degree. Lin Yun had no other choice but to use Dual Elemental Incarnation.
Dual Elemental Incarnation was indeed a Heaven Mage's ability, but Lin Yun, who came from the future, knew the principles behind it. With the addition of the omnipotent Magic Array, he only needed to make some calculations to create a simple Dual Elemental Incarnation.
Maintaining Dual Elemental Incarnation consumed a lot of mana. Even Lin Yun's mana was mostly consumed after using a Flame Flash when the Lesser Flame Overlord suddenly burst out and smashed his fist.
He was able to win this battle so quickly because of that Flame Flash.
"High Mage Merlin …"
Delson and Rolf walked over, pale, beads of sweat dripping down their foreheads. They were still in a tense state.
"This is the magic forest, to be safe, we should take a detour …" Lin Yun knew what the two wanted to say, so he waved his hand. He was worried that this magic forest wasn't limited to Flame Demons.
After exchanging a few words, the top forces of the three mercenary groups killed hundreds of Flame Demons in just a few minutes. Then, the three mercenary groups retreated from the Demonized Forest and advanced deeper into the Tulan Mountain Range.
Ten days passed in a flash. During this time, the leaders and vice-leaders of the three mercenary groups would always go to Lin Yun's living quarters after setting up camp. On the day they encountered the Lesser Flame Overlord, several dozen people had witnessed Lin Yun killing the Lesser Flame Overlord. Although most of them didn't leak the news, it still spread among the three mercenary groups, and it wasn't strange for the mercenaries to associate it with the strange actions of the leaders and vice-leaders.
In these ten days, they encountered countless magic beasts, and although they didn't meet a powerful magic beast on the level of the Lesser Flame Overlord, the journey was still very dangerous.
There was a huge canyon a few kilometers away from the camp, it was over a thousand kilometers long. According to the speed at which the three mercenary groups were advancing, they would have entered the canyon before dusk, but they stopped and set up camp.
Only a small number of people knew the reason behind it.
At this time, Lin Yun was standing in an open space not far from the camp, looking at the canyon in a daze. If he wasn't wrong, the Gaugass King and Emperor Zhantui had a decisive battle in the Line Canyon. Afterwards, one disappeared, while the other died not long after.
In the future, that world-shaking battle would engulf all of Noscent. Countless powerhouses would fall, and Sword Saints and Archmages would become cannon fodder … The battlefield was the Line Canyon in front of Lin Yun.
If he didn't have to go, he wouldn't rashly set foot in that place.
When he approached the Line Canyon, he felt the aura of three especially powerful magic beasts. He didn't need to use his Magic Array to know that these three magic beasts were a lot stronger than the Lesser Flame Overlord in the Magical Forest. They were level 37 or higher.
And this was only the edge of the canyon, as for the depths …
If the three mercenary groups met one of the magic beasts, even with his help, they would be in a terrible situation. If the three mercenary groups insisted on entering the canyon, he wouldn't stop them. He would only lead the three Merlin cousins and Xiuban away.
"High Mage Merlin …" Yema hurriedly ran over.
"What is it?" Lin Yun turned to look at Yema.
"It's like this, the few Leaders and Vice Leaders are asking you to come over and discuss something with you …" Yema lowered his head and respectfully said. At first, he respected Lin Yun mostly because of the Draconic Beastman, but it was different now. After seeing the young mage kill the Lesser Flame Overlord, he was deeply shaken. The young mage in front of him was an existence even more powerful than Vice Leader Dean.
Anyone who knew the inside story was in awe of Lin Yun.
"Take me there …" Lin Yun nodded.
Under Yema's lead, Lin Yun entered a living quarters. This was a temporary conference room where Dean, Delson, and the other Vice Leaders were present. Lin Yun felt the heavy atmosphere as he entered. At the same time, a few gazes focused on him.
"That's good, I also have something to ask you …"
Lin Yun looked around, and before anyone could say anything, he took the initiative to say, "Do you know how dangerous this place is? There are three magic beasts far stronger than Lesser Flame Overlords. You won't even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth! If you insist on throwing your lives away, please don't take me with you … "
Lin Yun was a bit angry. They could have gone anywhere, but they had to go to the Line Canyon. They should have some self-awareness …
Lin Yun wasn't exaggerating. With the three mercenary groups, they might be completely annihilated if they were unlucky.
"High Mage Merlin, please don't misunderstand, we don't have any intention of harming you …" Delson quietly wiped his cold sweat and carefully said with an apologetic smile.
"Yeah …" The others also smiled in agreement, but their smiles were a bit unnatural.
"Don't say those useless things." Lin Yun suddenly frowned. "I'm very curious about the purpose of your three mercenary groups. What drove you to the Tulan Mountain Range? I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer, or we'll part ways here."
"High Mage Merlin, it's not that we don't want to tell you, but that we can't. Our employer asked us to keep it a secret. You should know that credibility is the most important thing in the mercenary industry … "Delson became anxious when he heard Lin Yun say that he was leaving. Although that young mage only made two moves, he helped the mercenary groups greatly each time. If not for that young mage, the three mercenary groups might not have reached this step.
