The former was already a huge surprise. After all, those mages with poor aptitudes could become High Mages in a short time in the blessed environment of the Natural Demiplane. If their aptitudes underwent a qualitative change, they would be bound to walk further on the magic path and reach the 9th Rank of the High Mage realm, or even the Archmage realm!
As for the latter …
That was something he didn't even dare to think about. Having the bloodline of an Ancient God, even if it was only a wisp of impure blood, was frightening enough. In Noscent, everything related to Ancient Gods was taboo, including their power. And that group of mages with the bloodline of an Ancient God was equivalent to stealing that taboo power. Even Lin Yun didn't dare to jump to conclusions.
He was certain that this group of mages wouldn't be ordinary mages, but rather the most special group of mages in Noscent's history!
Soon, Anderfa returned to the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. But Lin Yun, who was extremely excited, couldn't calm down. He kept walking back and forth in the Natural Demiplane. His attitude towards those mages had greatly changed.
In the future, these people would become a terrifying force.
And he planned to do his best to nurture them.
Standing on the grass, Lin Yun roused his Magic Array to cover the entire area and those mages. Soon after, Lin Yun discovered that these mages were progressing at a rapid pace. Most of them had already condensed their 3rd Magic Conducting Rune, and it had only been four days.
It could be foreseen that they would all become High Mages in three months. At that time, these mages with the Blazing Storm would be able to burst with terrifying power. He originally predicted that these fifty mages would be able to deal with Archmages below the 5th Rank, but after the Ancient God's aura changed, he wasn't so sure. Even he would have a hard time dealing with these fifty mages.
After staying in the Demiplane for four to five hours, he returned to his room and discovered that it was already dawn. After making some preparations, he opened the door and discovered that William Merlin, Ross, and Leon Merlin were all there.
"Cousin Mafa, these two insist on following us to the Raging Flame Plane …" William Merlin rolled his eyes and helplessly said.
Who would have thought that Ross Merlin and Leon Merlin, the two geniuses most likely to become the next Patriarch, would actually fall so quickly …
The relationship between Ross Merlin and Leon Merlin was very subtle. After Aube Merlin was crippled, the two of them were the most likely candidates to inherit the position of the next family head. If nothing unexpected happened, the future family head would definitely be one of them.
The competition had already reached its climax …
As a Planar Legion Commander, they clearly knew that Lin Yun had gone to the Raging Flame Plane. Thus, they hadn't slacked off after returning from the Tulan Mountain Range, afraid of missing an opportunity.
They had personally experienced the benefits of following Lin Yun in the Tulan Mountain Range. Now that Lin Yun wanted to go to the Raging Flame Plane, how could they not follow?
Of these two youths competing for the position of Patriarch, if one of them didn't follow, he would inevitably fall behind the other.
Lin Yun only smiled and didn't refuse, tacitly allowing Ross Merlin and Leon Merlin to follow. After getting along with them in the Tulan Mountain Range for a few months, he knew that these two were trustworthy.
After spending a lot of effort, Xiuban was finally woken up, and the group majestically walked towards the Ancestral Land. As for the Draconic Beastman, he didn't do anything but sleep after returning to the manor. He had just woken up and was carrying Carnage as he followed behind Lin Yun's group, yawning and cursing in a low voice.
Half an hour had already passed by the time they reached the canyon of the Ancestral Land. Although the canyon was covered in dense fog and couldn't be seen in the distance, Lin Yun could still feel many tyrannical auras coming from all directions, as if a majestic army was hibernating there.
He had already guessed that the Planar Legion dispatched by the Ancestral Land would be led by him after going to the Raging Flame Plane. He secretly roused his Magic Array to its pinnacle and instantly caught the situation within a few hundred meters. This could be considered a huge Planar Legion, with at least a thousand people.
'They are all Great Mages …'
Lin Yun suddenly held his breath. Although most of these people were Great Mages and their strength couldn't be considered outstanding, there were no less than a thousand of them standing there, with countless mana fluctuations and Aura surging, their momentum was quite frightening.
In fact, he was truly startled when he discovered that these people were all at least Great Mages. This Planar Legion was simply too frightening, there were over a thousand Great Mages …
Even in a place like Okland, Great Mages weren't as common as cabbages. Although every major force had their own methods of nurturing a Great Mage, nurturing a Great Mage wasn't as easy as one might imagine. After all, back in Thousand Sails City, Lin Yun took advantage of a loophole and borrowed the Black Death Rune from the Cloud Tower to bring those fifty Great Mages into the Bone Plane and used the Black Death Rune to transform their Soul Fires into mana, allowing those mages to become Great Mages in a short three months.
But now, the Merlin Family actually dispatched over a thousand Great Mages in one go. How could he not be shocked?
With the insight of the Magic Array, he quickly discovered that there were a lot of High Mages, Divine Archers, and Expert Swordsmen in this Planar Legion, there were close to a hundred of them.
The true strength of the Merlin Family was indeed a bit frightening.
"You are Mafa Merlin, the Planar Legion's Commander?"
Just as Lin Yun was immersed in his amazement, a disharmonious voice came from not far away. He immediately noticed two silhouettes walking out of the dense fog. The one speaking was a middle-aged mage with an arrogant expression. He was wearing a mage robe and holding a magic staff that emitted a frightening aura.
"True Spirit Magic Tool …"
With one glance, Lin Yun knew that the middle-aged mage's staff was a genuine True Spirit Magic Tool. Judging from the mana fluctuations emitted by the middle-aged mage, he should be a 2nd Rank Archmage. A middle-aged mage holding a True Spirit Magic Staff should be far stronger than others of the same rank. Even a 3rd Rank Archmage might not necessarily be his opponent.
After the middle-aged mage appeared, Leon Merlin, who was standing next to Lin Yun, frowned, a doubtful expression on his face. He clearly hadn't seen the middle-aged mage in the Merlin Family.
This meant that the middle-aged mage should be someone from the Ancestral Land.
Walking side by side with the middle-aged mage was a bony old man in his seventies. His whole body was tightly wrapped in a black mage robe. Although he was looking at Lin Yun with an unkind gaze, his tone was a lot more polite than the middle-aged mage's. "You are High Mage Merlin …"
"I am …"
Lin Yun nodded, squinting as he looked at the two Archmages in front of him. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that these two should be the few first-rate powerhouses of the Planar Legion.
"Let me introduce myself, I am Ida Merlin …" The middle-aged mage glanced at Lin Yun, his face expressionless. "Commander Thorne led a part of the Planar Legion to the Raging Flame Plane two hours ago. Mafa Merlin, you are a bit late …"
This middle-aged mage was called Ida Merlin, and he came from the Ancestral Land. He had participated in countless Planar Wars in the past few decades and made contributions to all major planes.
To be honest, Ida Merlin truly looked down on this young mage in front of him.
He thought about it a lot, but he couldn't understand the intentions of the Family Council. They actually sent a 5th Rank High Mage as a Planar Legion Commander, this was crazy.
Moreover, he had heard that this young mage didn't have any experience in Planar Wars.
When he heard this, Ida Merlin was stunned. 'Is there a mistake? How can this kind of person become a Planar Legion Commander?' 'Is the Family Council deliberately trying to destroy the Merlin Family's Planar Legion in the Raging Flame Plane?' 'Otherwise, why would they send such a guy as a Commander?
This is illogical … '
But as he thought of how he would have to unconditionally obey the orders of this ignorant Commander, Ida Merlin felt like he was going crazy. If possible, he really wanted to withdraw from this Planar Legion.
In his eyes, this decision made by the Family Council was really too foolish. The Raging Flame Legion had originally been commanded by Thorne Merlin, but now, half of the authority had been taken by Mafa Merlin. In the Ancestral Land, Ida Merlin had heard of Thorne Merlin's various accomplishments. To be honest, if Thorne Merlin had been the one leading the Planar Legion, he definitely wouldn't have had any objections.
But this wasn't the case …
That young mage didn't even have the slightest bit of self-awareness. He hadn't experienced any Planar Wars, and he didn't have any formidable strength. It wouldn't be excessive to say that he was useless. Ida Merlin, who had experienced Planar Wars all day, clearly knew that one wrong decision made by a Commander in a battle could have a huge impact. It could even lead to the destruction of the entire Planar Legion.
As he thought of this, Ida Merlin's expression thoroughly turned cold. It looked like he had to give Mafa Merlin a warning in advance. If it really reached that step, everyone would be out of luck, including himself. "Mafa Merlin, I heard that you didn't have any experience in Planar Wars? That's good. In fact, this isn't a big problem. Commander Thorne is very experienced. He might have started participating in the Merlin Family's Planar Wars before you were even born and made great contributions. I feel that you should properly learn from Commander Thorne, that would be good for you. "
"Is that so …" Lin Yun scratched his cheek and looked at Ida Merlin in confusion. His eyes slightly narrowed. 'Is this guy sick? How could he not understand the true meaning of those words? He wants me to listen to Thorne Merlin in the Raging Flame Plane.
'How could this be …'
