The lava pond, which had been continuously changing positions, had already stopped moving for a dozen seconds, but Dubois didn't care. The Lightning Spirit was already thirty meters above Lin Yun's head. Once the Lightning Spirit reached the lava pond, it would turn everything within a few hundred meters into a sea of lightning.
It would be like a lightning domain, and at that time, all power that didn't belong to lightning, or power that couldn't be controlled by the Lightning Spirit, would be destroyed.
The two-hundred-meter-wide lava pond was already several hundred meters deep, and the deeper it went, the greater the pressure. The lava pond was only thirty meters deep, and the power of the Underground Fire Vein could already be felt there. But Lin Yun didn't stop.
Hiding in the magma pond, he unwaveringly stared at the slowly descending Lightning Soul, completely ignoring the terrifying mana consumption. The Lightning Soul would consume all of his mana in three or four seconds. Up until now, he had already replenished his mana seven times.
That Lightning Spirit's body was still very illusory, it was only in the shape of a skeleton made of lightning. It moved very slowly, especially when it left the Demiplane to fight. Its speed was even slower, it was like a slowly drifting thundercloud.
A battle between Heaven Mages was rarely like Dubois'. Using the Lightning Spirit's main body to suppress the opponent was pure bullying. After the Lightning Spirit's main body suppressed the opponent, it didn't need to spend any effort to attack. It only needed to guide the endless lightning and turn the area into a sea of lightning. Anyone caught in the sea of lightning would suffer countless attacks every second.
Anyone under the Heaven Rank would definitely die. No one could resist this kind of unreasonable attack.
"Mafa Merlin, you don't have a chance, you can't escape. Pay the price for your stupidity …"
Dubois was floating in the air, laughing heartily with a carefree expression. He hadn't been able to kill Lin Yun last time, and with the recent events, Dubois had been suppressing a bellyful of anger.
The Lightning Spirit appeared a dozen meters above the lava pond, and the dark clouds floating around its hundred-meter-tall body had already started touching the lava pond.
In the surrounding air, bolts of lightning appeared out of thin air, and the crackling sound slowly spread into a continuous stretch. Fine lightning threads spread out like a spider web, enveloping the entire magma pool.
In the magma pool, Lin Yun had a look of regret on his face.
What a pity. If he had waited a few more seconds, he would have been able to draw out an even more powerful force …
At this moment, the magma pool was like a huge inverted awl, fiercely inserted into the depths of the ground. The underground fire vein had long been drawn, but Lin Yun wanted to draw out a stronger force, so he had been suppressing the underground fire vein with all his strength.
Now that the Thunder Spirit had begun to use this unreasonable oppressive tactic, Lin Yun could only give up on accumulating power …
The violently fluctuating magma pool suddenly calmed down, as if some power had forcefully frozen the magma pool. A terrifying oppressive aura erupted from the magma pool like a volcanic eruption.
Rumble …
A muffled thunderous sound echoed from the depths of the earth, and the earth within several kilometers started fiercely shaking, as if some terrifying behemoth was about to drill its way out of the ground.
Dubois' expression changed, and he unhesitantly used his most powerful attack. Endless lightning bolts transformed into a waterfall that ruthlessly crashed down.
Behind him, a huge world shadow appeared, and an endless river of lightning poured into the maelstrom at the center of the world.
And in the sky, in the center of that maelstrom, the surging lightning was like a river flowing backwards, transforming into a glaring river of lightning rushing downwards.
As for the Lightning Spirit's flickering eye, it also transformed into a roaming lightning bolt. Above the magma pool, countless lightning bolts were like glaring blades that kept slashing at the magma pool.
At the same time, the magma pool thoroughly erupted, and in the center of the magma pool, a hundred-meter-thick pillar of magma soared into the sky.
It was like a terrifying volcano had suddenly erupted, and the huge magma pillar directly submerged the lightning.
In the center of that surging sea of lightning, the hundred-meter-wide magma pillar soared several hundred meters into the sky.
Lightning flickered within the flood of magma, and in less than two seconds, all the lightning rays disappeared.
At the same time, the world shadow behind Dubois was surging with lightning, and it looked as if the world was about to be destroyed. The edges of that world could be seen continuously collapsing.
In an instant, a small part of the world collapsed, and only when a Thunder Spirit slowly appeared in the center of the world did that collapsing world slowly stabilize.
Dubois' complexion became extremely pale, and the mana fluctuations on his body became chaotic as he spat three mouthfuls of blood.
"Mafa Merlin, you are dead! Dead! No one can save you! Everyone related to you will die! Die!"
Dubois flew into a rage as he recklessly cast.
After five seconds, that huge eruption of magma dissipated, and the sea of lightning thoroughly submerged the magma pool. The surging lightning bolts shuttled through the magma pool, and the Lava Giant Lin Yun couldn't help spitting blood. His Lava Incarnation had almost been destroyed, and his body was covered in charred marks.
After a few flashes, Lin Yun dragged the magma pool over a kilometer away, leaving the place where the sea of lightning was most powerful.
After floating out of the magma pool, Lin Yun drank two Health Potions, and his pale complexion improved a bit. Looking at the crazy Dubois, Lin Yun sneered.
'Fight? Let's see who can win. Even if I'm injured, I'll destroy his Lightning Spirit! '
Two Health Potions would be enough to recover from this injury, and the mana consumption didn't matter. He had never heard of a mage with a Natural Demiplane running out of mana.
That Lightning Spirit couldn't be killed, because after it was destroyed, it would resurrect in that Demiplane. As long as Dubois didn't die, that Lightning Spirit could be said to be immortal. As long as the Demiplane didn't collapse, the Lightning Spirit would be immortal.
But, as long as the Lightning Spirit was destroyed, it would need to consume the Demiplane's Origin Power to revive!
This was the same principle as a mage's vitality. Apart from increasing their rank, it was very difficult to increase the Demiplane's Origin Power. If the Origin Power was consumed, it would be no different from crippling a Heaven Mage.
When the Lightning Spirit died, a quarter of Dubois' Demiplane collapsed. Based on the current size of his Demiplane, the Demiplane would thoroughly collapse if the Lightning Spirit died two more times.
Dubois floated in the air, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Lin Yun, but he didn't dare to summon the Lightning Spirit again. He could only frantically cast, sending lightning spells raining down.
And below, Lin Yun also knew that he couldn't trick Dubois, so he also went all-out, sending boundless Lava Spells to bombard him.
The two kept changing positions, replenishing their mana whenever they ran out of mana, and then continuing to cast at each other.
For an entire day, the two of them did not hold back at all. The area within a radius of several thousand meters was destroyed over and over again. The undulating mountains were all gone, and there was not a single trace of vegetation left.
The area within several kilometers had turned into flat scorched earth, and not a single fist-sized rock could be found.
The terrain there was originally relatively high, but now, several dozen meters of earth had been shaved off.
The river that had flowed around the area began to pour into the scorched basin, but with the impact of the battle, not a single drop of water could be seen. After the raging river poured into the basin, it was as if it had sunk into the void, and all the water evaporated into thin air.
The surging steam kept transforming into smoke that soared into the sky, condensing into a boundless layer of clouds. The entire Four Seasons Plain had started entering the rainy season ahead of schedule, and it kept raining. The Grey Beastmen's fort was even more stormy.
In the center of the scorched earth was a two-hundred-meter-wide pool of lava, and Lin Yun was being dragged along by a huge wave of lava. He was pale and exhausted, and the mana fluctuations emitted from his body were like a hurricane.
And in the air, Dubois was also very pale. After being caught off guard by Lin Yun, his Demiplane's Origin Power had been damaged, and he didn't dare to borrow the Demiplane's power again. He only used it to replenish his mana.
But in one day of fighting, he had already used the Demiplane to replenish his mana three times. If this continued, the Demiplane's Origin Power would be damaged once again.
Floating in the air, Dubois looked at the pale-faced Lin Yun, who had abundant mana, with disbelief and doubt in his eyes.
'Damn, what's going on with that Mafa Merlin? His mana storage is actually so exaggerated, it's already comparable to a powerhouse that just advanced to the Heaven Rank.
'And how could his Demiplane have so much mana to replenish him? Did he inherit the God World?
'One day, an entire day …
'That damned guy, how many times did he replenish his mana? Ten times? Twenty times? Thirty times?
Dubois was floating in the air, no longer planning on continuing the fight.
After a day of fierce fighting, he still hadn't killed Lin Yun. As long as he wasn't an idiot, he would know that he wouldn't be able to kill him.
But Dubois wasn't willing to give up just like that.
He was a Heaven Rank powerhouse that transcended mortals, and he had even summoned an Elemental God, yet he still hadn't been able to kill a 7th Rank Archmage. After fighting for an entire day, he wanted to use his mana to crush his opponent to death and exhaust his mana.
But the final result was that his mana reserves were about to be exhausted …
'What the hell is going on? How could such a strange thing happen?
'Could it be that I have to leave? Let that damned guy off?
Last time, he was just an ant that could be casually crushed, and now, he couldn't do anything to him. If I let him off this time, I might never have another opportunity to get rid of him.
Dubois' expression changed. He suddenly noticed the Grey Beastmen's fort in the distance and sneered.
"Mafa Merlin, you truly exceeded my expectations. Not only did you destroy my Lightning Spirit once, but you also fought with me for so long. I can't kill you today, but our battle has already destroyed several thousand kilometers of this place.
"I can't kill you, but I can destroy your foundation here. Your subordinates, your forces, everything will be easily destroyed by me.
"I'll give you one last chance. Hand over the control of the Four Seasons Plain, as well as that puppet's technology, and I'll let you and your subordinates safely leave this place and continue fighting on the front lines.
"I can't kill you today, but you can't stop me from doing what I want to do!"
Dubois sneered as he looked at Lin Yun. The lightning above his head transformed into a lightning snake that kept flickering. As long as Dubois willed it, that lightning would rush towards the Grey Beastmen's fort.
Lin Yun sneered and flew up, using Flight to disappear in less than two seconds.
Dubois was slightly stunned. He couldn't understand, because Lin Yun wasn't flying in the direction of the Grey Beastmen's fort. It looked like he was abandoning the Grey Beastmen's fort?
'What's going on?
Is he really not going to care?
'Damn, could it be that Mafa Merlin is a cold-blooded and ruthless person? How could he abandon these people and run away? '
Dubois couldn't understand.
After a day of fighting, the two of them understood that they couldn't do anything to each other.
Since he couldn't kill Lin Yun, Dubois decided to settle for the next best thing. He wanted to threaten Lin Yun into surrendering and handing over the Four Seasons Plain, as well as the puppet technology, and finally, the Grey Beastmen. That would be enough.
As long as he had these benefits, the losses this time and the Demiplane's Origin would be made up for sooner or later.
But now, he didn't say a word and just ran away?
Dubois couldn't understand, but in the end, his eyes shone and he sneered.
"That Mafa Merlin is truly crafty, I almost fell for it. Do you think I would let them off if you pretended not to care?"
'Damnit, I don't believe that you can still pretend not to care when I attack the fort and your subordinates die one by one!'
Dubois sneered as he flew towards the Grey Beastmen's fort.
As for the Grey Beastmen's fort, they had already closed the teleportation array a day ago, and the entire fort was in a state of martial law. Apart from Lin Yun's subordinates and puppets, as well as some Grey Beastmen who had signed contracts, no one was allowed to leave their residences.
The entire fort was under martial law, and the fort's three huge mana reactors were operating at full capacity for the first time, integrating the entire fort into one.
The continuous buildings and newly adjusted railroad tracks looked like countless runes and densely packed alchemy patterns. The location of the three huge mana reactors was at the three corners of the fort. The entire fort had turned into an array.
The remodeling of the city walls had already been completed, and the defensive metal plates on the walls had been linked to the entire fort.
The unified energy system integrated the entire fort's interior and exterior, and a large number of puppets appeared in some key areas to maintain the operation of the array.
A several-hundred-meter-long and several-dozen-meter-thick lightning bolt rushed over from the distance and ruthlessly fell towards the Grey Beastmen's fort.
