Chapter 1046: Wind And Thunder Beast King
When casting the World Sword, Lin Li had already prepared his backup solution out of a habit that he had developed through experiencing countless battles in the Barbarous Arena. In other words, he would have numerous sets of attacks that he would cast consecutively, and never let himself think that he could defeat his opponent with just one move.
From the performance, it seemed that the purifying power of Holy Light should be the nemesis of the vicious and filthy power. However, without the Stars of Fury, Lin Li could not utilize the power of Holy Light to fight the power of the prehistoric Viper. Hence, he thought of Gloomy Dark. As the saying went, “if you can’t beat him, join him”. Becoming one with it was definitely easier than destroying it.
Under the cover of the World Sword, Lin Li cast Gloomy Dark, a key factor of the battle. It would be best if the World Sword could really kill the prehistoric Viper, but if the World Sword could not exert any effects, Gloomy Dark would become Lin Li’s backup plan.
It was proven that Lin Li’s arrangement worked as Gloomy Dark had successfully devoured the prehistoric Viper’s colorful smoke, and had even controlled the prehistoric Viper with the power it devoured.
After writhing vigorously, the gigantic black pupa finally calmed down. After the black smoke gradually dissipated, all that was revealed was a massive snake skeleton. At the same time, there was surprisingly another black satellite-like ball around Gloomy Dark, which was obviously the soul of the prehistoric Viper.
Generally, Sanctuary powerhouses had reached the realm of having indestructible souls. That was also the same reason that Lin Li sent Osric’s soul into the Endless Abyss. Initially, Lin Li was still worried about how he should deal with the soul of the prehistoric Viper, but it seemed that he no longer had to worry now.
Lin Li summoned Gloomy Dark back into his hands, and he could acutely sense the changes in the power of Gloomy Dark. It was not considered an improvement; there were simply some changes. The three tiny balls around Gloomy Dark, especially the souls of the Double Death Dragons, had also gained many benefits, and they were probably already near the Sanctuary-realm. Perhaps an opportunity would be all it took to give rise to two Sanctuary-level Dracoliches. As for the soul of the prehistoric Viper, it was truly nearing the peak of the Sanctuary-realm, and was now just in a deep slumber. Lin Li did not know when he could summon it.
Apart from that, Lin Li also had two gains, which were the bones of the prehistoric Viper and the magical crystal that was near the Sanctuary-realm. The bones of the prehistoric Viper could be used to build a battleship. He reckoned that even the best battleship of the Gilded Kingdom was made out of a material that was inferior to the Viper’s bones. On the other hand, the magical crystal at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm could be used as the power core of the alchemical battleship.
After placing everything in the Ring of Endless Storm, Lin Li did not immediately go deeper into the Sunset Mountains, but continued where he had left off before getting disturbed. He dispersed his mental strength, and scattered it everywhere to carefully explore everything in this world. The exploration’s result took Lin Li aback greatly. Although his mental strength only covered a small area of the Sunset Mountains, he managed to discover a large number of existences that were emanating Sanctuary-realm mana in that small amount of space.
Could it be that this world is really the world of prehistoric magical beasts? Lin Li thought to himself in shock while exploring. No wonder Geresco would use something like the Door to the Prehistoric World. If it had been just an ordinary gate that connected two worlds, the Sanctuary-realm prehistoric magical beasts would probably have surged into Anril long ago.
However, Lin Li was not frightened by the vast number of magical beasts. After all, the Sanctuary-realm prehistoric magical beasts rarely lived in groups, and they basically each had their own territory. Hence, there was an opportunity to take advantage of. However, Lin Li couldn’t figure out why Geresco would deliberately set up such a place, since fights with prehistoric magical beasts could just take place in the Barbarous Arena.
Of course, it was safe to say that there would be no battle spoils in the Barbarous Arena, unlike in this place where he could gain a large amount of wealth by killing prehistoric magical beasts at the Sanctuary-realm. However, that explanation was quite a stretch. Lin Li knew very well that wealth no longer mattered much to those at his level. Hence, Lin Li suspected that Geresco’s true agenda for creating such a world was beyond just letting others have a hunting ground.
With Lin Li’s current strength, he could not effortlessly kill the prehistoric magical beasts, but it was already impossible for him to rely on fighting the prehistoric magical beasts continuously to improve his strength. What he needed now was the accumulation of mana and an opportunity to break through, which was probably impossible to achieve solely through fighting the prehistoric magical beasts.
Hence, if this world was merely a hunting ground, then it might have some value to Lin Li, but by his personal standards, its value was probably inferior to the Barbarous Arena’s. He believed that the items of the prehistoric magical beasts would not matter to someone at Geresco’s level. Clearly, the value of the world definitely did not lie with the prehistoric magical beasts.
So what secrets are hidden in this world? After killing the prehistoric Viper, Lin Li did not choose to leave this world immediately, and instead spread his mental strength out. Not only did it search for the prehistoric magical beasts distributed in various areas of the Sunset Mountains, it was also trying to analyze the structure of the Laws of this world.
Given Lin Li’s current thoughts, the only valuable thing to him here now was probably the structure of the Laws. After all, the Domain World created by most people could not accommodate so many Sanctuary-realm prehistoric magical beasts. Even just one or two would cause the entire Domain World to collapse immediately.
Hence, Lin Li hoped that he could acquire some knowledge and experience through the structure of the Laws. Perhaps he would be able to improve his strength again after using them in his Domain World. However, Lin Li’s current strength was far inferior to Geresco’s. It was not an easy thing to analyze the world created by Geresco.
While Lin Li was racking his brains and analyzing the intricate structure of the laws, a thick cloud of fog suddenly surged out from the West. It was very different from the colorful cloud of the prehistoric Viper, and it seemed white with some gloominess, with some flickering bolts of lightning. The dense sounds of thunder were also getting closer and louder with the fog.
Sensing something strange, Lin Li opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the fog, only to see that rolling fog had gradually revealed a gigantic figure. The figure in the fog seemed like a robust cheetah, but it was several times larger. Its two eyes that were glistening with a purple light seemed to be condensed with destructive lightning. Apart from the fog, there were countless lightning bolts that resembled snakes leaping around continuously, each emanating a destructive aura.
Although the prehistoric magical beast had already vanished from Anril for thousands to tens of thousands of years, Lin Li could still recognize its origin at a glance. The figure in the cloud was a famous prehistoric magical beast, the Tempest Beast, which was born with the ability to control the nomological power of wind.
Besides, the Tempest Beast did not like being on its own, unlike the prehistoric Viper. They usually moved about in groups that ranged from a few thousands to tens of thousands. They gathered to form a cloud-like mass that covered the sky. Even an ancient wyrm would flee far when it saw them.
Purely in terms of strength alone, the Tempest Beast was superior to the prehistoric Viper. However, the prehistoric Viper had the most vicious poison in the world which was daunting for all beasts, regardless of size and power. Simply put, the strength of the prehistoric Viper might not have been at the top during the prehistoric times, but it still was an existence that no one dared to provoke. However, among the various prehistoric magical beasts, the Tempest Beast was definitely one of the strongest, and it wouldn’t be wrong to say that it was a tyrant.
Nonetheless, Lin Li did not show a single trace of fear when he saw that it was the Tempest Beast that appeared. Although his previous battle with the prehistoric Viper was rather difficult, it was because the Viper’s poison was too difficult to deal with. Without the poison, it wouldn’t take Lin Li too much effort to defeat it; hence, he wasn’t afraid at all.
As the cloud surged towards him, smaller Tempest Beasts also appeared after the one that was in the lead. Lin Li did not have any intentions to escape. The Helios’ Scepter in his hand flashed, and he charged towards the fog like an arrow.
The leading Tempest Beast let out an angry thunder-like roar when it saw Lin Li charging towards it instead of fleeing, making it feel extremely humiliated and provoked. After it roared, the surrounding clouds rolled up violently, and Tempest Beasts of various sizes roared at the tiny provoker too.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Li was surrounded by hundreds of Tempest Beasts, followed by overwhelming Lightning magic spells that were surging towards him like menacing tides, about to swallow him in a moment. However, despite being the target of the attacks, Lin Li was still smiling coldly, and swinging the Helios’ Scepter down in front of him without panicking. A flame arc was immediately launched, and his body followed closely behind.
The flame slash that Lin Li tossed out casually immediately collided with the tides of countless magic spells while burning with striking golden flames. Like snow coming into contact with fire, the magic spells swiftly melted without any sounds of the collision of magic spells.
If High Priest Rogge of the Darkness Shrine or Nefa, the descendant of the Dragon of Destruction had seen this, they would probably have realized at a glance that the flame Lin Li cast was very similar to the flames controlled by the Flame Dragon Lothar as it contained power that could burn and destroy the laws of everything. Of course, the flames that Lin Li cast merely contained that kind of power. Otherwise, with that enlightenment, he would have probably already reached the peak of the Sanctuary-realm long ago.
However, despite being incomplete, this power was sufficient for dealing with the Tempest Beasts. All the magic spells that came into contact with the flames would have their Laws burned away immediately. The mana that had been restrained by the Laws would naturally vanish too. Before the Tempest Beasts could even react, the flame had already appeared in front of them, and the dazzling golden light did not dim in the slightest.
A few of the Sanctuary-realm Tempest Beasts that had been attacked by the flames turned into lightning and spread outwards. However, the Tempest Beasts that only had Legendary-level power did not have enough strength to escape immediately. Before they even touched the flames, they already began burning up, and were turning into ashes by the flames that swarmed over.
Seeing that more than 10 of its underlings which could even be considered its children had been destroyed by the evil enemy in a short moment, the Tempest Beast King was incredibly infuriated. It roared angrily, and a world of lightning immediately appeared. Thunderbolts bombarded the flames extinguishing the flame slash in a moment.
However, when Lin Li sent out the flame slash, he followed it closely. Seeing that the flames were gradually extinguished, he immediately raised the Helios’ Scepter and the World Sword broke through lightning, slashing at the head of the Tempest Beast King.
When the Tempest Beast King saw the World Sword slashing at itself, it sensed the terrifying power of destruction that it contained and roared angrily, after which two thunderbolts suddenly appeared in its pair of purple eyes, blasting at the World Sword.
Those two thunderbolts were not the same as the Thunder-series magic spells, and were instead the Creation Thunderbolts that grew in the eyes of Tempest Beasts since their birth. Legend had it that the Tempest Beasts were born under the Creation Thunderbolt when it created the world of Anril amidst the chaos. Hence, they were born with a tinge of the Creation Thunderbolt’s aura in their blood after their birth. Over the years, they continuously nourished it with the mana in their bodies. Once it matured and took shape, its power was probably no less than the Titan Dragon Spear’s.
The strength of the Tempest Beast King was already close to the peak of the Sanctuary-realm, and one could only imagine how powerful the Creation Thunderbolt that the Tempest Beast King had nurtured with its lifelong energy was. However, the Creation Thunderbolt was not cast randomly at any spot. Although it was not disposable, it would cause a huge plunge in the strength of the user every time it was cast. Weaker casters might even lose a few levels of their strength.
Clearly, the Tempest Beast King had sensed the power that could pose a threat to him. Finally, it did not hesitate to release the Creation Thunderbolt that it had been nurturing.
Boom! The Creation Thunderbolt and the World Sword collided with a loud roar, and the aftershocks and the violent tremors spread out in all directions, causing the fog to quake so much that it was on the verge of dispersing.
