Not to mention whether he would agree or not, the Family Council might not agree. After all, the true purpose of participating in the Raging Flame Plane's contest was to go to the Volcanic Mountain Range and explore the ruins left behind by his ancestor.
"High Mage Merlin, before you make a decision in the Raging Flame Plane, it would be best to listen to Commander Thorne's opinion. That way, you can avoid a lot of risks …" The black-robed mage smiled. He clearly doubted Lin Yun's ability, but his words were a bit more reserved than Ida Merlin's. "High Mage Merlin, I'm sorry, I almost forgot to introduce myself. I'm Yuri Merlin, transferred from the Ancestral Plane."
"Sir Yuri, this kind of thing can wait until we reach the Raging Flame Plane …" Lin Yun couldn't help frowning. After saying that, he ignored Ida and Merlin Merlin and inspected the Planar Legion. He knew that this was only a part of the Planar Legion, and Thorne Merlin might have taken the majority with him.
He didn't stay any longer. Following the order, the dozen Guardian Towers surrounding the Ancestral Land flickered with a fierce light and emitted berserk mana fluctuations. After a few seconds, under the fierce impact, space started distorting and a stable Planar Path appeared, leading to the Raging Flame Plane.
It would take some time for over a thousand people to pass through the Planar Path. Lin Yun walked at the back of the group, and after the Planar Legion entered, he slowly stepped on the Planar Path. He felt his surroundings change. The first thing he felt was a burning aura that made his heart feel heavy. He looked up and saw a fiery sky, as if it had been dyed red with blood. Even the sun was red, spreading glaring and sinister sunlight.
The surroundings were filled with a thick aura of slaughter.
This was the Raging Flame Plane …
Okland's major forces hadn't given up on conquering the Raging Flame Plane for over a millennium. This was an incomparably huge plane with abundant resources. Including the Merlin Family, all of Okland's major forces had obtained indescribable benefits from this plane.
But, after going through the baptism of the Planar Wars for over a millennium, the Raging Flame Beastmen were still holding onto important positions. Even if all of Okland's major forces went all-out, they might not be able to thoroughly conquer this plane in a short time.
Nothing could be done about it, the Raging Flame Beastmen were truly troublesome.
Who knew how many famous young geniuses of Okland had been buried in this place for over a millennium. In fact, Okland's major forces would usually send their young geniuses to this plane to gain experience, but most of them didn't manage to leave in the end. They would remain there forever.
Young people like Ross Merlin, Leon Merlin, and William Merlin had all set foot in the Raging Flame Plane, and not just once.
Lin Yun's feet stepped on the pitch-black earth and slowly moved forward. He was constantly rousing his Magic Array and quickly discovered that the Laws of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind were very different from Noscent. In fact, he had read a lot of information about the Raging Flame Plane before leaving. Although this plane was rich in resources, its illusions were very dangerous, and there were countless volcanoes. But this kind of environment was beneficial for the Raging Flame Beastmen.
He was now in a fort with the Planar Legion. He was familiar with the information about the Raging Flame Plane, so he naturally knew that this was the Flame Demon Fort controlled by the Merlin Family. In the entire Raging Flame Plane, the Merlin Family controlled three forts, and the Flame Demon Fort was only one of them. Naturally, it was also the most important.
After all, the Flame Demon Fort was one of the Seven Great Forts of the entire Raging Flame Plane. It was a strategic location with extraordinary significance, and any force would covet it.
It was said that several hundred years ago, the Raging Flame Beastmen allied with a Flame Demon from the Abyss, and that Flame Demon guarded that fort. Many of Okland's forces tried to attack the Flame Demon Fort, but they all ended in failure and suffered disastrous losses. That Flame Demon's strength exceeded everyone's expectations.
Although many forces were envious of the Flame Demon Fort, not a single force dared to have any ideas about it.
Up until three hundred years ago, when the genius of the Merlin Family, Santon Merlin, appeared and killed the Flame Demon in one fell swoop, allowing the Merlin Family to smoothly capture that fort. For the past three hundred years, the Flame Demon Fort had always been under the control of the Merlin Family, and the role of the Flame Demon Fort was extremely huge.
It could be said that the Flame Demon Fort was the foundation of the Merlin Family in the Raging Flame Plane.
"High Mage Merlin …"
At this time, that old Archmage named Yuri Merlin hurriedly ran over with an anxious expression. By the time he reached Lin Yun, he was already gasping for breath.
"Sir Yuri, what's wrong?"
Seeing Yuri Merlin's flushed cheeks, Lin Yun couldn't help frowning. He realized that something might have happened.
"The Planar Legion led by Commander Thorne is fighting an Elemental Legion. High Mage Merlin, please give the order to reinforce Commander Thorne, or the Flame Demon Fort will face a huge crisis."
As Yuri Merlin said this, Lin Yun had a solemn expression as he roused his Magic Array to its peak and caught a wisp of Elemental lifeform's aura, as well as some chaotic elements. The battlefield was a few kilometers away, and as three Mage Eyes flew out, the situation of the battlefield appeared in his line of sight.
Even though he was already mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Within a radius of ten thousand meters, the volcano erupted violently, and the magma swept up a scorching wave of air, flowing all over the place. At a glance, it was filled with raging flames, and the temperature in that area had almost reached a frightening level.
As Yuri Merlin said, the enemy was an Elemental Legion. Through the Mage Eyes, Lin Yun could clearly see that the number of Fire Elemental lifeforms was endless. The sky was fiery red and numerous Flame Crows had gathered. There were at least ten thousand of them, but he knew that these weren't true Flame Crows, but rather Volcano Spirits.
Volcano Spirits were similar to Flame Spirits, but they were a lot smaller. They could transform into Flame Crows and would usually appear in groups, numbering in the tens of thousands. Even an Archmage powerhouse would feel numb when encountering such a lifeform.
At this time, several tens of thousands of Volcano Spirits had transformed into Flame Crows and dyed the sky red, raining fire attacks that covered the entire area. Although the strength of Volcano Spirits wasn't worth mentioning and couldn't even break a Great Mage's Mana Shield, they couldn't handle so many of them.
The ones that could truly pose a threat to the Planar Legion weren't the Volcano Spirits, but the Ash Spirits on the ground. These Fire Elemental lifeforms were far more powerful than the Volcano Spirits. They had the body of an Earth Puppet and emitted a dense aura of sulfur.
But it was different from the aura of Hell lifeforms. It was a kind of highly toxic gas.
Although the Ash Spirits were slow, the toxic gas they emitted made the Mana Shields of the Planar Legion's Great Mages dim after coming into contact with it. They simply couldn't resist the corrosion of the poison. In a short few seconds, the skin of those mages turned fiery red. It was clear that their blood was gradually coagulating and they had completely lost their fighting strength.
In this chaotic battlefield, everyone had no time to look after themselves. Losing their fighting strength was equivalent to death.
"Rumble …"
Loud noises kept echoing from that battlefield, as if the earth was shaking. Huge silhouettes entered Lin Yun's eyes and he couldn't help being startled. Those hundred-meter-tall silhouettes covered in flames were actually Lava Giants. Their bodies were flowing with lava, and whenever their huge bodies moved, a large amount of lava would fly out. That lava also contained fierce fire poison. Even the Planar Legion's Great Mages would find it hard to survive if they came in contact with it. They would be thoroughly burned to ashes.
If there were only a few Magma Giants, they might not have been able to cause the Planar Legion to suffer heavy losses. However, there were at least several hundred Magma Giants in the battlefield that spanned 10,000 meters. They stood on the ground like mountains, and they possessed terrifying power that made one's heart tremble. Countless people had died in their hands.
Lava Giants could be considered relatively advanced Elemental lifeforms, and the weakest among them was comparable to a High Mage.
But in this battle, facing such a frightening enemy, the Planar Legion led by Thorne Merlin didn't show any signs of chaos. Under Thorne Merlin's command, they attacked and defended in an orderly manner. Countless spells were like a tide rushing towards those Elemental lifeforms, especially the Spirit Archers in the center of the army. Numerous arrows flew towards the sky and countless red dots fell from the sky. Those were Volcano Spirits.
As for Thorne Merlin, he led the Planar Legion's high-end powerhouses to attack and kill those Lava Giants.
All these signs showed that Thorne Merlin had some ability and was very experienced in commanding the Planar Legion. In fact, there was a huge disparity between the Planar Legion and the Elemental Legion. If someone else had been in command, they might have already fallen into chaos. But now, the Planar Legion still retained most of its strength.
But even so, the battle was still in a stalemate. Some people were already showing signs of fatigue, and their mana was severely depleted. The worst thing was that the number of Elemental Creatures did not decrease during the battle. Instead, it was gradually increasing.
Even Lin Yun could see that the Planar Legion led by Thorne Merlin was facing a huge crisis.
If they couldn't resist the Elemental lifeforms, the Flame Demon Fort would be at risk of being lost.
Without any hesitation, Lin Yun immediately issued an order and led the Planar Legion to reinforce Thorne Merlin. In an instant, dazzling spells fluttered in the air, strangling those Elemental lifeforms. Under the fierce counterattack, they stabilized their position in a short few minutes. After the two Planar Legions fused together, their power greatly increased and they broke the deadlock.
Facing countless Fire Elemental lifeforms, the Merlin Family's Planar Legion already had the upper hand in this battle to defend the Flame Demon Fort.
