The defensive range kept shrinking, and even Zeuss was covered in cold sweat as he joined in on the defense.
After Reina recovered a bit, she joined in on the defense once again.
Even so, she was only able to block the Orachiss' spells ten meters away before being unable to push them back.
After three minutes, Lin Yun 'incantation could be heard from the back.
The Draconic Staff shone brightly, and the five Askrim Gates appeared out of nowhere in front of everyone, blocking all the spells of the Orachiss.
"Hurry up!"
Lin Yun shouted.
Everyone looked back and immediately saw the wall formed by the Ashen Fire behind them. A passage that was only as tall as a person had been dug out. There were countless Frost Shields on the walls of the passage, temporarily blocking the Ashen Fire.
But everyone could see that those Ice Shields were melting at a visible speed, and it wouldn't take more than a few seconds before the passage collapsed.
When Lin Yun stood next to them, even Zeuss, who was the weakest among them, could clearly feel Lin Yun's mana rapidly being consumed.
Everyone passed through this passage, and within three seconds, they had rushed out of the Ash Cage.
By the time Lin Yun rushed out, the passage behind him started collapsing, and a large amount of ashen flames instantly submerged the passage like gray lava.
At Lin Yun's side, Syudos, who had turned into a ball of flames, was continuously changing between ash-gray and fiery red. His body was emitting a dense ashen flame aura, and his aura was even stronger than before.
Lin Yun sighed in relief, 'We've finally escaped …'
When the Orachiss cast Apocalypse, the Ash Cage would collapse on its own, but this Orachiss was even more ruthless and intelligent. It seemed to be hunting, trapping all its prey before slowly killing them.
"Fortunately, I made Syudos go to the Bone Plane …"
Lin Yun rejoiced.
Ordinary Flame Spirits would only grow, because ordinary Flame Spirits wouldn't grow at all.
As for Upper Rank Flame Spirits, they had the characteristic of devouring flames to grow. At the start, Syudos would only be equivalent to a level 30 Flame Spirit.
After being thrown into the Bone Plane by Lin Yun, the Undead's Soul Fires were frantically devoured by Syudos and he had already advanced to level 32.
This was because those Soul Fires' ranks were too low. Although they could barely be considered a kind of flame, they weren't very helpful to Syudos' growth because of their low ranks.
This was also the reason why Lin Yun had thrown him into the Bone Plane to clean up the Undead for such a long time, leaving him in a bad mood.
Anyone would be fed up with eating tasteless black bread every day for a few months, especially those who were used to eating delicacies every day. If they had to eat black bread for a few months in a row, they would want to die.
After staying in the Bone Plane for such a long time, Syudos already had the ability to devour ashen flames. If he had come in contact with the ashen flames before maturing, he might have suffered a backlash. Let alone devouring them, this was an intrinsic difference.
How could Syudos not be envious of the large expanse of ashen flames in front of him? But these ashen flames were too powerful, and Syudos simply didn't dare to devour them. If he forcibly devoured them, he would be submerged by those ashen flames, and as an Upper Rank Flame Spirit, he might even be burned to death.
That wall of ashen flames was a whole, and the ashen flames inside were also flowing. If Syudos rashly rushed in, he would only end up being stuffed to death by the huge ashen flames, let alone devouring them.
As for that wall of ashen flames, Lin Yun simply couldn't touch it, just like how ordinary people couldn't go through walls. If they wanted to go through, they could only break through the wall and dig out a part of it.
Syudos couldn't devour the entire wall, but Lin Yun could help him resist the pressure and forcibly divide the ashen flames. At that time, Syudos could devour the part of the ashen flames Lin Yun had separated.
With the two working together, they managed to dig a passage through the wall of ashen flames.
The Orachiss naturally couldn't let Lin Yun dig a passage that easily, so Anderfa had to stop the Orachiss' attacks.
Although they couldn't contend against it, they could still do their best to resist for a while.
But they weren't under as much pressure as Lin Yun.
The pressure of resisting the ashen flames was completely shouldered by Lin Yun, while Syudos could freely devour them.
He used a Mana Shield because it was the best way to deal with this kind of unending pressure. As long as his mana wasn't exhausted, the Mana Shield wouldn't dissipate.
But on the way, Lin Yun had already used up all his mana three times!
Without the help of the Demiplane, Lin Yun would be able to recover his mana in a breath and simply wouldn't be able to resist the pressure of the ashen flames!
This was already the power of one step into the Heaven Rank. The pure pressure was enough to crush a 9th Rank Archmage to death.
Moreover, no one could disturb him during this process. As long as the Orachiss' power fell there, Lin Yun simply wouldn't be able to resist. He and Syudos would be shaken to death by the ashen flames.
The last time they met the Orachiss, not only did Syudos not have the ability to devour the ashen flames, but Lin Yun also couldn't resist the pressure of the Orachiss, let alone the pressure of the ashen flames.
This time was different. The increase in strength gave him more options, and he didn't need to risk his life to infuriate the Orachiss and make it use Apocalyptic Calamity.
As Lin Yun and the others rushed out, the Orachiss, who was still in the Ash Cage, flew into a violent rage.
It originally thought that they were just a group of defenseless prey, but they actually broke through the Ash Cage and escaped. How could it endure this?
The Dark Elves who were still in the Ash Cage had suffered greatly this time.
Not only did the two python heads start frantically spurting out spells, but the demonic head in the middle that kept devouring the Dark Elves also started casting Abyssal Spells.
A thick smell of sulfur spread out as evil power wreaked havoc. Boundless black fog condensed in the air and transformed into sinister black claws.
Over a hundred eight-meter-big black claws fell from the sky, and a large number of Dark Elves kept dying. Only a little over two hundred of the originally thousand Dark Elven mages remained.
The group of Dark Elves clenched their teeth and released spells to defend, protecting Elsa in the middle.
Elsa clenched her teeth and held a pitch-black arrow with both hands, pouring all her mana into it. Although Jeremy was filled with fear, he also poured his mana into that pitch-black arrow.
That arrow was made of some unknown wood, and it looked very crude. There were only seven runes on it, and it looked like a crude magic arrow.
But as a large amount of mana was poured in, a cryptic and profound fluctuation spread out.
In less than three minutes, close to a hundred Dark Elves were killed by the Orachiss, and a dozen Dark Elves even took the initiative to be devoured by the Orachiss to buy some precious time.
As the Orachiss forced the remaining Dark Elves to the edge of the Ash Cage, the runes on the black arrow flew out.
The seven runes carried formidable power, and a ray of light transformed into a barrier that instantly enveloped all the Dark Elves.
By the time the Orachiss' claws fell, all the Dark Elves had disappeared, leaving only the black arrow floating in the air.
Then, the black arrow was curled up by the runes and rushed into the ashen flames.
The power of the ashen flames kept colliding with the runes around the black arrow, and the light of the runes rapidly dimmed.
By the time the black arrow rushed out of the ashen flames and flew less than two hundred meters away, the runes around the black arrow dissipated and a barrier appeared. All the Dark Elves that had disappeared reappeared.
Then, the black arrow turned to ashes and sprinkled down from the sky.
Lin Yun's group, who had already escaped a few hundred meters away, turned around and saw this scene.
Anderfa was envious and gnashed his teeth as he cursed, "Piercing Arrow! Damn, that group of bitches actually had such a good thing!"
Lin Yun hadn't seen what those Dark Elves had used, but when he heard Anderfa's words, he immediately remembered.
Piercing Arrow, a kind of disposable Magic Tool. It was one of the most powerful arrows of the Elven Race.
It was rumored that during the Nesser Dynasty, the most powerful Heaven Rank Archer of the Elves could use the Moon Chasing Divine Bow and the first-rate Piercing Arrow to kill enemies fifty kilometers away.
Piercing Arrow could also be used as a disposable Magic Tool. After being activated, it could carry the user and allow them to fly five kilometers away in one second.
As long as the Piercing Arrow's power wasn't exhausted, it could teleport the user over fifty kilometers away.
The Elves would give the Piercing Arrow to important members of the younger generation. This was one of the Elves' important means of protecting the younger generation.
Unfortunately, the Orachiss' ashen flames were too powerful, and the Piercing Arrow's power was exhausted after passing through the ashen flames. Otherwise, as long as it had a bit of power left, it would have been enough to carry the Dark Elves a few kilometers away.
When the Dark Elves reappeared, they turned to look at the Ash Cage and couldn't help revealing expressions of despair. Even the Sky Piercing Arrows couldn't take them far, they only managed to escape from the Ash Cage.
The Orachiss was thoroughly enraged now that all of its prey had escaped.
The Ash Cage exploded, and the boundless ashen flames turned into fist-sized balls of fire that rained down on everything within a kilometer.
The enraged Orachiss crazily roared as it rushed out, its three heads releasing a large number of spells.
Fire, ice, black fog, mixed power, as well as those ashen flames, turned everything within a kilometer into a purgatory.
