Because of this, he planned to use Shawn's power to sever the connection between the Tribal Chief and that ancestor.
And Shawn didn't disappoint him.
When he severed the connection between the Tribal Chief and the ancestor's soul, he unreservedly burst out with all his power. He entered an unlimited state and ignored mana exhaustion. The Undead Horseman and the Lich also burst out with their full power.
Even if it was only for a split second, this kind of attack wasn't something the Tribal Chief, who had fallen to the 6th Rank of the Archmage realm, could endure. The final result was within his expectations. The Tribal Chief died.
"This is still too much … Merlin, can't we have a pleasant cooperation in the future? You can't imagine how frightening that Beastman's soul was … "Shawn gnashed his teeth, a narcissistic expression appearing on his face as he continued," Fortunately, Lord Shawn made a move and helped you solve this problem. Forget it, Lord Shawn won't bicker with you, Lord Shawn wants to go … "
However, halfway through his words, Lord Shaun in his Ghost Wolf form suddenly stopped …
The narcissistic look on its face had also disappeared without a trace, replaced by an expression as if it had seen a ghost. Looking at the corpse of the tribal chief at the side, it almost jumped in fright, and its voice carried some fear, "What the hell! That damned guy still hasn't disappeared … "
"What?"
Lin Yun was clearly stunned. This was the first time he had seen Shawn lose his composure like this. He immediately realized that something had happened, and then, he noticed a strange fluctuation slowly rising up.
He then followed Shawn's line of sight.
A dark red mist suddenly appeared above the Tribal Chief's corpse. The mist was extremely strange, constantly twisting in the air, and a terrifyingly high temperature spread in all directions.
A faintly discernible roar echoed as the smoke rushed into the sky and condensed into a huge Beastman's shadow, occupying more than half of the sky. A pair of ice-cold eyes gazed at everyone.
"Shit!"
Even Lin Yun couldn't help cursing as he looked at the Beastman's shadow in the sky. Cold sweat unconsciously dripped down his forehead. He now knew who Shawn was talking about.
It was actually the ancestor of the Thawing Fire Tribe!
This was no joke. The strength of an ancient existence like the ancestor could only be described as terrifying.
Every tribe would worship their ancestors and produce a kind of power similar to faith. After countless years of accumulation, the ancestors themselves would become very powerful, much more powerful than Joy and Hören, they would at least be at the Heaven Rank.
However …
The only thing worth rejoicing about was that existences like the ancestor were rejected by the plane's origin energy, so they couldn't descend with their true bodies. They could only transmit their power through some special method. Just like the Tribal Chief from before, he used the Thawing Fire Tribe's totem pole as a medium to communicate with his ancestor. In the end, the ancestor's power descended upon the Tribal Chief.
In other words, the one that appeared now might just be a clone of the ancestor.
After all, it was impossible for their true bodies to appear in the Raging Flame Plane.
Thinking of this, Lin Yun secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"Humans, you will pay for what you have done today! I swear that when my true body descends, all of you and the forces behind you will definitely sink into the boundless hell … "
At this time, the huge Beastman shadow in the sky let out a deafening roar. After the roar, that indistinct face distorted and countless dark red runes appeared before transforming into a dark red smoke. A red light streaked across the horizon before disappearing in the north.
"High Mage Merlin …" Once the Beastman shadow completely disappeared, Weiss walked towards Lin Yun with a pale expression. He was covered in cold sweat, clearly frightened by the sudden appearance of the ancestor shadow. "If there is nothing else, let's return as soon as possible …"
"Okay, let's return first …" Lin Yun nodded. He didn't want to stay there for too long. He then glanced at Weiss before his gaze rested on the totem pole. "Sir Weiss, can you lend me that thing for a while?"
"This …"
Weiss truly hadn't expected the young mage to make such a request. At this time, he felt somewhat awkward. If it had been something else, he definitely wouldn't have hesitated.
But this peak True Spirit totem pillar …..
The Black Tower had spent a lot of effort over the past hundred years for this Magic Tool. This time, they had mobilized most of the powerhouses of the Raging Flame Plane and paid a huge price to eliminate the Thawing Fire Tribe.
But now, the young mage wanted to borrow the totem. This made Weiss very hesitant.
It wasn't that he was suspicious, but that Peak True Spirit Totem was too important to the Black Tower.
"I only need to borrow it for half a month. During that time, I'll stay in the Raging Flame Plane. If Sir Weiss can't make the decision, you can go back and tell Sir Hören about this matter …" Lin Yun smiled and casually said.
He simply wasn't worried …
He could naturally see how important this totem was to the Black Tower. But in fact, the totem was worthless in the Black Tower's hands. Once Hören found out about this, he would definitely be flustered and exasperated. Thus, it wouldn't be difficult for him to borrow the totem.
Naturally, Weiss didn't know about this. He pondered for a bit before saying with a solemn expression, "Rest assured, I'll tell Sir Hören the truth. If Sir Hören agrees, I'll personally deliver it to you …"
Not long after, the team returned along the same path and left the Holy Land, converging with the army outside the valley.
Three hours later, the two forces officially separated. The Black Tower's mage army left and rushed towards the Dark Moon Fort. As for Lin Yun, he led the Merlin Family's Planar Legion back to the Flame Demon Fort.
But …
Early the next morning, the Black Tower's Weiss arrived at the Flame Demon Fort and handed the totem to Lin Yun.
After hurriedly exchanging a few words with Weiss and expressing his gratitude to the Black Tower, Lin Yun led the fifty High Mages towards the Ghost Valley. The entire northeastern part of the Raging Flame Plane was now under the control of the Merlin Family and the Black Tower. There was no Beastman force in that area.
Soon, Lin Yun's group arrived at the location of the Raising Dragon Array. They had already finished excavating it half a month ago. After casually arranging a few arrays, Lin Yun went deep underground and looked at the dark red defensive power tightly wrapping around the Raising Dragon Array.
Then, he took out the totem pole …
In an instant, a terrifyingly high temperature was emitted from the ball of flames at the top of the totem pole. At the same time, the dark red defensive power was greatly affected. Countless dark red runes tumbled up and down, showing faint signs of disarray. However, it did not last for long, and once again condensed.
"Sure enough …"
Seeing this scene, a happy expression appeared on Lin Yun's face. His initial judgement was correct. Although that defensive power was shockingly powerful, and even a Peak Archmage would need to spend some effort to break through it, it had a fatal weakness. The tyrannical flame impact would make the defensive power's runes chaotic. When it reached a critical point, that defensive power would thoroughly collapse.
But he didn't dare to do that.
He knew that the moment the defensive barrier disappeared, the true power of the Raising Dragon Formation would be unleashed, especially the Five-Colored Dragon Crystal, which was the core of the Raising Dragon Formation. Its power was simply terrifying. Once it was unleashed, the entire Ghost Valley would be razed to the ground by its terrifying power.
The Black Tower definitely wouldn't be happy if the Ghost Valley was destroyed.
More importantly, even with his current strength, it would be very difficult for him to survive the impact of the Raising Dragon Array's power.
As he thought of this, Lin Yun couldn't help frowning and bitterly smiling. He didn't have any other choice at this time. He could only use the totem to slowly wear down the defensive power. Although this process would take a long time, at least ten days, it would definitely be safer than directly opening the array.
"This is the only way …"
With a helpless expression, Lin Yun fished out a crystal pen from his pocket and dipped it in the ink he had prepared beforehand before quickly writing runes on the ground. Time slowly passed.
Soon, a seemingly simple but very practical array was set up. Then, Lin Yun cautiously placed the totem in the center of the array. Suddenly, the flame power at the top of the totem emitted a shocking temperature that kept attacking the defensive power.
With each attack, the defensive power weakened at a subtle speed.
After doing all this, Lin Yun stretched and returned to the ground.
But he didn't leave. Instead, he looked for an empty space in the vicinity and entered meditation. His Magic Array was constantly revolving at high speed, allowing him to observe everything within several kilometers.
After all, opening the Raising Dragon Array was very important. Any accident could lead to a disaster that would bring him indescribable losses.
During this time, he had to guard this place. On one hand, he could prevent anyone from disturbing him, and on the other hand, he could observe the changes of the Raising Dragon Array.
Those fifty High Mages weren't idle either. They were led by Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin to disperse and meditate in the surroundings, forming a powerful defensive line.
Facing this tyrannical power, even a Representative of the Black Tower, 7th Rank Archmage Suval, wouldn't be able to come out unscathed.
For the next few days, it was very peaceful. Everyone was methodically breaking the Raising Dragon Formation, and there were no accidents. Up until the night of the 8th day, Lin Yun, who was in a meditative state, suddenly caught a wisp of hard-to-detect mana fluctuations. These fluctuations were very strange, they didn't resemble those of humans or Beastmen, nor did they resemble Elemental lifeforms.
The mana fluctuations fluctuated between strong and weak, and they were very hidden. If not for the Magic Array's special characteristics, it would have been very difficult to detect them. This made Lin Yun frown. In the dusky night, his eyes were exceptionally bright as he stared at the east with a pensive expression.
