Chapter 939: Power Of The Sanctuary-realm
It would be alright if the mages of the Tower of Dusk were behaving like they could win easily. However, the Archmages seemed to also be in a difficult situation, and many of them were injured as well. That was rather puzzling.
Could it be that Felic already has a solution to the problem? As much as Archbishop Martin wanted to convince himself that the conjecture was true, he felt that it seemed to be unlikely, regardless of how he looked at it. However, if that was not the case, it did not seem likely that he would give up on the mages too. That seemed to have on effect on the situation!
Archbishop Martin moved away from the group, and walked towards Lin Li again. He anxiously asked, “Felic, do you already have a solution? If you do, hurry and use it. If this goes on, we won’t be able to endure for long!”
“President Felic, you should be aware of the current situation. If we continue to drag this on, I’m afraid that everyone will have to be left here except for us. If you really have a solution, I hope that you will stop holding back.” Donald could also see the changes in the Tower of Dusk. Although he did not believe that Lin Li could resolve the crisis they were facing, he still had a glimmer of hope.
Lin Li did not answer the two of them immediately, and instead looked at the mages. Perhaps, in the opinion of others, the mages were not behaving differently, but he could still tell that the mages had indeed improved greatly after a period of training.
If they were to go on, they would be in trouble! Lin Li finally looked away and turned to look at the two who were incredibly anxious. He stepped forward gently, but he suddenly appeared above the battlefield.
That change gave Archbishop Martin and Donald a great shock. The two of them were still waiting for Lin Li’s reply, but they did not expect him to run straight to the battlefield.
However, could the current situation be changed by a Legendary powerhouse who was at the peak of the Legendary-realm? Truth be told, neither of them believed it.
However, just as the two of them looked toward the battlefield where Lin Li was hovering in the air, they saw something that surprised both of them.
Lin Li was calmly raising the Helios’ Scepter in his hand while hovering in midair. He gently pointed the Helios’ Scepter at the Ghost Mages, but that seemingly insignificant action made everyone present instantly feel that the entire Sky Castle seemed to have been lowered with the scepter before sinking abruptly. It was as if a heavy object had suddenly been placed on a boat.
Immediately afterwards, something even more surprising happened. The distorted bodies of the Ghost Mages, which were extremely rampant so far, suddenly became blurry almost all at the same time. Just like green smoke that rose into the air, they dissipated silently in the breeze. The bodies of the nearly 200 Ghost Mages gradually became blurred and transparent before eventually disappearing without a sound.
What kind of power is that!? Those were Ghost Mages that had combat power that was not inferior to the Legendary powerhouses. Everyone was astonished. They did not feel any mana fluctuations, nor did they hear Lin Li chant any incantations. He managed to make the nearly 200 Ghost Mages disappear with a gentle move of his scepter!
That was simply beyond everyone’s knowledge, and even the Legendary powerhouses, Archbishop Martin and Donald, could not figure out what was going on. They could not imagine how Lin Li, who they thought was also a Legendary powerhouse like them, could have such a peculiar power. They even felt a little terrified.
Archbishop Martin and Donald were both Legendary powerhouses who were at the peak of the Legendary-realm. Although they were close to the Sanctuary-realm, they had yet to see that door to the Sanctuary-realm. They could be considered clueless about the power of the Sanctuary-realm, and that was the reason they were afraid. If they had a slight comprehension of the power of the Sanctuary-realm, they would not find the power that Lin Li used to be that peculiar.
Although the Ghost Mages had combat power that was not inferior to the Legendary-mages, they were still not in the actual Legendary-realm, after all. Their power came from Highlord Osric, not themselves. They could not use that power to comprehend and master the Laws. That was the difference between them and Legendary-mages. They were unable to truly grasp the nomological power or create their own Magical Domain.
Those Ghost Mages were actually no different from ordinary Archmages in terms of their realm. The only difference was that they had massive mana and a portion of Laws that even they could not master.
On the other hand, Lin Li was truly in the Sanctuary-realm, and he could really integrate himself into the World Laws. Every wisp of mana came with the purest nomological power. He did not need to use any powerful magic spells to destroy the Ghost Mages. He just had to use his mastery of World Laws to disintegrate the Laws of the mana that they had condensed. Everything they had would lose the foundation to exist.
This was the terrifying aspect of the Sanctuary-realm. To put it in a more exaggerated manner, if Lin Li were to accidentally show some of his mana, it would be enough to make an Archmage lose his mana and die.
However, the Ghost Mages were not the main point. What really caused big trouble for the expedition was the skeletal Elemental Dragon that was only the size of a fist. It was an Elemental Dragon that was at the peak of the Legendary-realm. It had terrifying power which was probably comparable to the power of 100 Legendary-mages who were at the peak of the Legendary-realm. That kind of power was simply comparable to that of a Sanctuary powerhouse.
After destroying those Ghost Mages, Lin Li did not linger any longer. He flashed again and immediately arrived in front of the Elemental Dragon. Lin Li did not have any defensive spells, but the Elemental Dragon that had just bombarded the expedition actually stopped at this moment.
The Elemental Dragon that had terrifying power actually became surprisingly quiet after Lin Li arrived. In fact, they could even sense a trace of fear from its body.
Yes, fear! Although the Elemental Dragon was only a small skeleton that could not make any expressions, the expedition below, especially Archbishop Martin and Donald, could feel the sense of fear coming from it.
“Instead of being a proper ancient dragon, it actually went to become Osric’s underling as a bunch of bones. Is that fun?” Lin Li said calmly as he looked at the Elemental Dragon.
As Lin Li finished speaking, the Elemental Dragon did not launch any attacks. Instead, it flapped its wings and surprisingly ran away like it did not have any backbone.
However, before the Elemental Dragon could flee far, a palm formed from mana suddenly appeared in the void and grabbed the Elemental Dragon that was trying to escape. At this time, the Elemental Dragon no longer looked as ferocious and menacing as it had just now. It simply became a poor creature that was powerless and unable to retaliate.
Lin Li then pointed the Helios’ Scepter forward, and countless lightning pythons sprang up from the void with earth-shattering roars. They bombarded the Elemental Dragon continuously. They immediately darted around in the sky and lit up the entire space, and everyone couldn’t help but want to close their eyes.
Finally, when everything fell silent, the skeleton of the Elemental Dragon had already disappeared without a trace from the illusory hand made of mana, leaving behind only a nail-sized magical crystal that was glistening in the air.
The Elemental Dragon that had forced everyone into a desperate situation just now had been wiped out, with no bones left! Upon sight of that scene, the members of the expedition standing on the ground were completely dumbfounded. In fact, they couldn’t believe it at all. The illusory feeling was just like a dream.
The Elemental Dragon was indeed very strong as it had an inherent ability to have infinite mana and master countless powerful elemental magic spells. However, it was still only in the Legendary-realm. No matter how close it was to the Sanctuary-realm, and even if it was only a step away, it was actually still infinitely far away from the real Sanctuary-realm. The difference between the realms was not at all something that could be closed by the accumulation of mana.
Although there had always been legends of the weak overpowering the strong in Anril where Magic Shooters defeated Archmages, and Archmages defeated Legendary-mages, there were no legends of a Legendary-mage defeating a Sanctuary powerhouse. That was because the difference between the Legendary-realm and the Sanctuary-realm was far greater than anyone could imagine. It was not only in terms of power, but also in terms of the mastery of Laws, the familiarity with composition of the world, and the thorough use of mana.
A true Sanctuary powerhouse had already integrated himself into the World Laws. Every place that a Sanctuary powerhouse was in would become a natural Magical Domain that was composed of the World Laws. The words and deeds of a Sanctuary powerhouse represented the World Laws. That was an ability that was only possessed by gods.
Stepping into the Sanctuary-realm meant that one was already free from the limitations of mortals. Thus, they were no longer restrained by the World Laws. It was no exaggeration to say that Sanctuary powerhouses represented the strongest power in Anril. They could use all sorts of World Laws freely, making the power of the world work for them. Apart from a few core Laws, there was no longer anything that could bind them.
All levels above the Sanctuary-realm were considered the realm of gods. In the long history of Anril, there were only a few people who were qualified to step into the realm above the Sanctuary-realm, for example the God of Mages Geresco and the mythical Immortal King...
Looking at the young figure in the sky, Donald continuously yelled in his heart, No, that’s impossible!
How could that be? That’s an Elemental Dragon! An Elemental Dragon that’s at the peak of the Legendary-realm! Donald couldn’t believe what was happening in front of him. An Elemental Dragon that was at the peak of the Legendary-realm was actually destroyed so easily. Am I crazy, or has this world gone mad? How could there be such power in this world!?
Of course, there was also the possibility that the young mage had already possessed the true power of the Sanctuary-realm. However, Donald clearly did not believe that. He would rather believe that the other party was just lucky enough to have encountered an Elemental Dragon that had something wrong with it, and had exploited the weakness of the Elemental Dragon through some method.
At this moment, Kamber, who was standing beside Donald, also had a look of shock on his face. He could not believe that a person he originally did not take seriously would suddenly reveal such unbelievably powerful strength. He recalled the words that he said when he wanted the Tower of Dusk to submit to the Rotterdam Kingdom the previous day. If Lin Li was really a Sanctuary powerhouse, he would probably be dead.
His power is definitely not his own, he must have mastered some magical equipment or some secret technique to restrain the Elemental Dragon! That must be it! Kamber could not stop persuading himself. Indeed, this must be the case. That cunning mage made his move so late because he wanted to create such a stir to show how powerful he is. In reality, he was just putting on a facade to create a deterrence so as to gain greater benefits in the exploration later.
The arrogant people of the Rotterdam could never accept seeing others being stronger than themselves. Even if they saw it with their own eyes, they would have to come up with acceptable explanations for it in their own minds.
Unlike the people from the Rotterdam Kingdom, Archbishop Martin would not dwell on it, although he was extremely astonished as well.
From Archbishop Martin’s point of view, the fact that Lin Li could possess such great strength might not be beneficial to the Brilliance Shrine. As one of the four archbishops of the Brilliance Shrine, he had heard Pope Rosario mention before that Felic might be the Son of The Holy Light.
Besides, Archbishop Martin also knew that although the matter had yet to be announced, he was more or less sure about it. The only problem was that the boy himself refused to admit it. However, facts were facts, and no matter how the true Son of The Holy Light tried to deny it, he would never be able to change facts.
Seems like I should report this matter to Pope Rosario as soon as possible. While the Supreme Council is still not doing anything, I will make this kid the Son of The Holy Light. At the thought of it, Archbishop Martin began to get rather eager. He even thought of giving up the expedition.
Although he was also a member of the Brilliance Shrine, Prince Jeremiah was not as excited about the matter as Archbishop Martin was. Instead, he was somewhat fearful.
What a joke, it’s an Elemental Dragon that is at the peak of the Legendary-realm, yet it was destroyed just like that. My Paladins are so insignificant compared to them. Jeremiah was secretly thankful for Archbishop Martin’s persuasion, which stopped him from stirring trouble with them. Otherwise, if he were to really anger Lin Li, he would be doomed, regardless of the fact that he was a prince who was also the leader of the Holy Light Knights.
