A dozen fierce explosions echoed as the meteor's size was reduced by half, but it still didn't dissipate. It was just that it was sent flying into the distance.
"Boom …"
The meteor fell and a ten-meter-tall treehouse was instantly shattered to pieces. The flames spread out and destroyed all the buildings within a hundred meters.
After that attack, the 3rd Elder's expression became gloomy.
"Looks like I still underestimated your strength …"
After saying that, the mana fluctuations unique to 8th Tier Spells started spreading.
Lin Yun frowned. He hadn't expected that the 3rd Elder, who had advanced to the 9th Rank of the Archmage realm not long ago, would already be able to use 8th Tier Spells.
Lin Yun decisively used the Magic Sealing Rune, and in an instant, countless runes appeared above the 3rd Elder's head. These runes converged into a profound rune that instantly imprinted on the 3rd Elder's forehead.
In an instant, in the final stage of that 8th Tier Spell's casting, all the mana fluctuations disappeared and the spell was forcibly interrupted.
The 3rd Elder's mana seemed to have disappeared in an instant.
The 3rd Elder let out a muffled groan as his spell was interrupted. Although the Dark Elves' magic patterns could be cast instantly, it wasn't as if they didn't have a time limit.
Every time a spell was released, the magic pattern would shine first. That was the magic pattern gathering mana, and once enough mana was gathered, the magic pattern would be released.
The time needed for a Low Tier Spell was truly negligible, but a High Tier Spell's mana requirement was too great, and the time needed to gather mana was quite long.
But this time was negligible when compared to normal casting.
The 3rd Elder hadn't expected Lin Yun to actually be able to interrupt his casting. The difference in ranks was too great, and a 9th Rank Archmage couldn't be interrupted by a 9th Rank High Mage.
But Lin Yun had the Magic Sealing Rune.
With his casting interrupted, his mana was shackled. In an instant, the 3rd Elder's mana kept attacking the power of the Magic Sealing Rune, and the rune on his forehead kept shaking, as if it would shatter at any time.
But Lin Yun didn't take advantage of this opportunity to cast a spell. Instead, he rapidly chanted an incantation and waved his Draconic Staff to sprinkle mana. This mana transformed into a rune that fell into the surrounding earth.
In an instant, the Ancient War Trees that had fallen into a deep slumber woke up one by one.
An aged face condensed on the trunk of a several-dozen-meter-tall Ancient War Tree. Countless leaves rapidly fell down, and the branches twisted together to form two huge arms.
The thick roots also came out of the ground, and as they swayed, the Ancient War Tree stood up with the support of the roots. The faces on the tree trunks were filled with anger.
With a wave of those thick arms, several dozen of the 3rd Elder's subordinates were sent flying.
Four huge Ancient War Trees slowly moved around Lin Yun, protecting Lin Yun in the center. And not far from them, four more Ancient War Trees were clumsily moving towards Lin Yun. All the Dark Elves they met on the way were pushed aside like insects.
The Dark Elves who were a bit slow were sent flying while vomiting blood. Even their magic shields were smashed to pieces.
From the appearance of these Ancient War Trees to the four Ancient War Trees protecting Lin Yun in the center, only two seconds had passed. At that time, the 3rd Elder finally broke through the Magic Sealing Rune's blockade and his powerful mana burst out. In an instant, over a hundred spells condensed in the sky.
The berserk spells were like a flood submerging Lin Yun.
At this time, the four Ancient War Trees closest to Lin Yun had already taken root once again. Numerous roots pierced through the earth and anchored their bodies to the ground.
The two Ancient War Trees swung their huge hands to block in front of Lin Yun. That terrifying and berserk spell flood crashed into those huge hands, but it was instantly annihilated.
All the spells automatically collapsed when they touched the Ancient War Trees and turned into the most ordinary magic elements before dissipating.
These magic elements were like a gentle breeze when they appeared in front of Lin Yun, they didn't cause any damage.
The 3rd Elder turned pale with fright. "The Ancient War Trees are under your control! Quick! Catch them, don't let them escape! "
In an instant, the 3rd Elder gave the order to attack. The awakening of the Ancient War Trees had thoroughly disrupted his plan.
As for the 2nd Elder and the dozen followers of the 2nd Elder, they panicked and rushed towards the Ancient War Trees' protection.
The 3rd Elder's mage army made a move together, covering the sky with spells, but they were all forcibly dispersed when they appeared around the Ancient War Trees.
Even the 3rd Elder's spells couldn't pass through the protection of the Ancient War Trees.
The Ancient War Trees were the Dark Elven Clan's firmest defense. Apart from being very difficult to move and having very high requirements for survival, they only had one terrifying advantage.
It was rumored that these Ancient War Trees were the descendants of a World Tree. That World Tree supported a huge plane, and the entire plane's mana, elements, life, everything was derived from the World Tree. The Ancient War Trees innately had a formidable ability: Magic Immunity!
They were innately friends with all magic elements. All offensive spells would collapse and transform back into ordinary magic elements upon contact with the Ancient War Trees.
Although these Ancient War Trees weren't particularly high in rank, they were enough to resist all spells under the Heaven Rank!
As long as they didn't leave the Ancient War Trees' protection, all spells under the Heaven Rank would be useless.
The 3rd Elder's expression was frighteningly gloomy. He personally cast an 8th Tier Spell, but it only made the Ancient War Trees sway slightly. They simply couldn't break through the defense to attack Lin Yun.
The Dark Elves with swordsmanship magic patterns also rushed over, but none of them could break through the Ancient War Trees' defense. What was even more frightening was that the other four Ancient War Trees had already arrived.
These four Ancient War Trees took root in the surroundings, and rays of light fell from their treetops. A Dark Elf proficient in swordsmanship wanted to rush over and used a sword skill to slash at the arm of that Ancient War Tree.
In an instant, that Dark Elf let out a blood-curdling scream as a wound pierced through his chest appeared on the surface of his body.
"That's an Ancient Bramble Tree, don't approach!"
But it was already over. In an instant, a dozen Dark Elves with swordsmanship magic patterns were injured and sent flying. At least half of their attacks on the Ancient Bramble Tree were reflected back.
In an instant, all the Dark Elves retreated.
Every Dark Elf knew how powerful the Ancient War Trees were, and some special Ancient War Trees even had new abilities.
Thorns Halo!
It could reflect any Sword Skill attacking the Ancient Bramble Tree, but these Ancient Bramble Trees could only reflect half of the power. According to legends, the most powerful Ancient War Trees' Thorns Halo could cover the entire tribe, and any attack could be completely reflected.
The four Ancient Bramble Trees and four ordinary Ancient War Trees formed a circle around Lin Yun's group, protecting them in the center. The surrounding Dark Elves wisely didn't attack.
They knew that attacking was futile. They simply couldn't break through the Ancient War Trees' defense. Not to mention, the Ancient War Trees were the most powerful guardians of the Dark Elven Clan. They didn't only know how to defend, each Ancient War Tree was comparable to a level 38 magic beast that specialized in power.
It only took a dozen seconds for everyone to stop. Not a single Dark Elf dared to approach within a few hundred meters of them.
On the branches of the Ancient War Trees, there was an angry old face, reminding them that these Ancient War Trees were already in a state of war. If they got close, they would be mercilessly torn to shreds.
The Third Elder stood in the distance with a frighteningly gloomy face.
Lin Yun stood within the protection of the Ancient War Trees with a calm expression.
Ever since returning to the Dark Elven Clan, Lin Yun had felt that something wasn't right. Especially after meeting those few Dark Elves that attacked the 2nd Elder, Lin Yun had a bad premonition.
He had originally set up a simple array that could use the power of the Life Pattern Crystal, but he hadn't expected that it would actually be used.
Using the Life Pattern Crystal's power to awaken the slumbering Ancient War Trees, they would be in their strongest state for defense. The Ancient War Trees were truly formidable.
After a long while, the Third Elder roared angrily.
"Outsider, don't think that you can do it just because you can control a few Ancient War Trees."
Following a wave of the 3rd Elder's hand, a whistling arrow flew into the sky, its whistling sound spreading throughout the entire clan. In an instant, a large number of Dark Elves could be heard rushing over.
After a few minutes, the surroundings of the eight Ancient War Trees were densely packed with Dark Elves. Countless Dark Elves had tightly surrounded the area.
The 3rd Elder proudly sneered as he looked at Lin Yun.
"Outsider, let me tell you, more than half of the Dark Elven Clan has gathered here, let's see where you can run!"
Lin Yun didn't show any fear as he sneered.
"Don't regret it."
The 3rd Elder laughed heartily.
"Hahaha … Regret? Let me tell you, despicable Outsider, although I don't know what despicable method you used to control these Ancient War Trees, there is one thing you definitely don't know.
"Although the Ancient War Trees' defenses are formidable, they have their limits. I have the majority of the Dark Elven Clan's power here, these Ancient War Trees definitely can't defend against me!"
After saying that, the 3rd Elder sneered, "There is one thing that the 2nd Elder definitely knows. An Ancient War Tree accidentally killed a Dark Elf a few hundred years ago …"
After the Third Elder finished speaking, the Second Elder's complexion changed, and he loudly shouted, "Third Elder, how dare you!"
