When the magic mark appeared, Lin Yun almost lost his grip once again and let the stone tablet fall to the ground for the second time.
Lin Yun's expression changed as he stared at that fingernail-sized magic mark. Lin Yun felt his mind go blank.
'Sage Chapter, this is the Sage Chapter …'
The Extraordinary Magic Tool Book of Death's 4th Chapter, the Sage Chapter!
In the legends, it was an Extraordinary Augment that could upgrade any spell into an Ultimate Spell!
To mages, the existence of Ultimate Spells was no less a secret than the Magic Conducting Rune. Every mage had some spells they were particularly proficient in, and they would keep researching and perfecting these spells over the years. Their understanding of these spells was far deeper and more thorough than other mages, and in their hands, the power of these spells would reach an inconceivable level.
These spells were Ultimate Spells!
But the completion of an Ultimate Spell would take a lot of time. Even those powerful mages at the peak of the magic era rarely had multiple Ultimate Spells, because they didn't have the time or energy to do so.
Naturally, there were exceptions to everything.
That Heaven Mage from the Ivory Tower, Bane, was one such exception.
That person used a total of thirteen Ultimate Spells in the Dusk War and almost single-handedly defeated the entire Highland Shrine. That battle subverted the common sense of all mages. Over two millennia later, when Bane disappeared from the endless planes, the mages were still enthusiastically discussing that battle. They were still searching for the truth behind those thirteen Ultimate Spells.
In the end, this secret spread after the collapse of the Ivory Tower.
Bane's thirteen Ultimate Spells didn't come from himself, but rather from an Augment of the Extraordinary Magic Tool Book of Death. That Augment was the 4th Chapter of the Book of Death, the Sage Chapter!
'No wonder …' At this time, Lin Yun thoroughly understood. No wonder the power of that stone tablet was so strange. Analyzing and calculating spells was one of the essential conditions of Ultimate Spells. Only by continuously analyzing and calculating spells and thoroughly understanding every detail of a spell could an Ultimate Spell have that kind of unfathomable power.
And coincidentally, the Magic Array he had was a Magic Conducting Rune famous for its complexity and complexity. It also relied heavily on analysis and calculations. To him, the Sage Chapter's significance was even greater than Bane's.
Lin Yun originally had a complete plan for his Ultimate Spells.
Ultimate Spells needed too much time, and it was very difficult for a mage to have many Ultimate Spells in their lifetime. Thus, Lin Yun had already decided that he wouldn't think about Ultimate Spells before becoming an Archmage. Once he became an Archmage, his Magic Array would be perfected enough, and he would focus on Elemental Incarnation.
That's right, Elemental Incarnation …
Only Lin Yun, who came from 30,000 years in the future, knew how the mages at the peak of the magic era fought. In contrast, the mages that Lin Yun came in contact with, like Larry and Ryan, could only be described as incompetent when it came to fighting. Even the powerful Solomon and Cadgar couldn't be considered mature when it came to fighting.
In the end, the mages of the current era only used simple manipulation of mana, while the mages at the peak of the magic era had turned fighting into an instinct. They all chose Elemental Incarnation as their Ultimate Spell. Their terrifying movement speed and powerful elemental bodies allowed them to easily dominate the battle.
After all, a low level plane like the Bone Plane could be cleared out in a few days by a 5th Rank High Mage, including the Bone Dragon.
But now …
A team of ten High Mages would just be sending themselves to the Bone Dragon.
In the end, the mages of this era hadn't gone through the baptism of many battles, so they still hadn't realized the power of Elemental Incarnation. Only when the Planar Colonization Era arrived and all the mages threw themselves into the Planar Wars would they realize how powerful Elemental Incarnation was.
But when Lin Yun found out that he was holding the Sage Chapter, Lin Yun had no choice but to change his original plan.
This meant that he had too many choices. In those days, Heaven Mage Bane used thirteen Ultimate Spells in a single battle!
'What's going on?' Just as Lin Yun was thinking about what path to take in the future, the magic mark on the stone tablet suddenly dimmed.
This scared Lin Yun quite a bit.
At this time, Lin Yun didn't have time to think and directly roused his mana to release the Flaming Hand. In a flash, a dazzling flame filled Lin Yun's line of sight. The temperature that blossomed in that split second couldn't even be called a Flaming Hand. Conservatively speaking, it was at least on the level of a Flame Burst.
But Lin Yun's expression suddenly turned gloomy …
'Not enough, not enough power …'
It wasn't that Lin Yun hadn't seen a true Ultimate Spell.
It was hardly an exaggeration to say that even a 1st Tier Spell like the Flaming Hand would be at least at the 4th Tier after becoming an Ultimate Spell.
Everyone knew that a mage's fighting strength would take a huge leap every five ranks. Besides the Mana Whirlpool and the Magic Conducting Rune, there was also the fact that mages could learn new spells every five ranks. Spells before the 5th Tier were called 1st Tier Spells, while spells below the 10th Tier were called 2nd Tier Spells.
Thus, 4th Tier Spells were power that only 5th Rank Great Mages could grasp.
But although the Flaming Hand he had just released was shocking, it hadn't reached the level of an Ultimate Spell. Let alone a 4th Tier Spell, it was barely at the level of a 3rd Tier Spell.
'What's the reason?' Lin Yun put down the stone tablet in his hand and sat in front of the refining table, racking his brains.
The weakening of the spell was one problem, and the other was why the magic mark had unknowingly dimmed. Could it be that the Ultimate Spells enhanced by the Sage Chapter would gradually lose their power over time?
But if it was because of time, wasn't that too short of a time?
