”Alright, the others are resting. Follow me, we have to go dig up something…”
”What thing?”
”Another piece of an Ancient God's soul!”
”...”
Enderfa told him that the Ancient God's soul fragment would only bring benefits and no trouble before it awakened. He suggested that Lin Yun should make use of this special environment to quickly increase his strength.
Enderfa's suggestion was fair.
But Enderfa didn't know that Lin Yun came from 30,000 years in the future.
After going through the baptism of the peak of the magic era and witnessing Noscent's destruction, Lin Yun's ambitions on the path of magic surpassed those of any mage of this era.
To the mages of this era, the Archmage and Heaven realms were their goals. Even a powerhouse like Star Sage Jouyi was only dreaming of one day standing in the Heaven realm.
But Lin Yun...
Lin Yun's ambition was far greater.
Archmages were everywhere at the peak of the magic era. Many Heaven Rank powerhouses also fell during that tragedy in the Tulan Mountain Range. Even these lofty existences standing at the peak couldn't stop falling alongside Noscent.
The world would fall after 30,000 years.
This might be a groundless fear to ordinary people, as 30,000 years was too far in the future. It was enough for ordinary people to reincarnate two to three hundred times.
But to a mage, and especially Lin Yun, this was a real problem.
Lin Yun was only twenty years old when he stepped into High Mage realm. As long as he didn't court a disaster, living a few hundred years would be easy.
And this was only for High Mages.
With Lin Yun's transcendent knowledge and experience, as well as his ten solid Magic Arrays, stepping into the Archmage realm and then the Heaven realm was only a question of time.
The lifespan of an Archmage was over a millennium.
Heaven Rank powerhouses could live over several millennia...
As for people like Sovereign of Death Sandro or Charles the Conqueror...
There had never been any mention in Noscent's history of powerhouses like them dying of natural causes.
This wasn't a dream for Lin Yun. As long as he didn't fall midway, there would also be a time when he would stand aloof, at the top.
In the end, Lin Yun would have no choice but to face the problem. He would have to either flee into a spatial crack like Sandro and Charles, or wait for the end of times alongside Noscent.
In fact, no matter which choice he picked, it would only be a decision made out of helplessness. Whether he fled or waited, he would be giving in to an unknown fate. No one knew what the outcome would be...
Lin Yun was unwilling...
Lin Yun wanted to truly control his own fate. If powerhouses like Charles and Sandro couldn't control their own fates, then Lin Yun would become stronger than them, he would become strong enough to do it.
To reach that realm, he couldn't walk on the paths taken by others.
Even if those people had created an unprecedentedly brilliant magic civilization.
Thus, Lin Yun had always been trying to push through his own magic path. It was like this with the Magic Array, and also with the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. Every step Lin Yun took was done after countless deductions and careful deliberations, each step bringing him closer to his final goal.
Enderfa's suggestion was a good one.
But Lin Yun wasn't willing to just meditate in that environment. Mana gained by external means wasn't his own in the end. He might be able to rely on it to quickly grow and reach the Archmage realm, but what about after the Archmage realm?
What would he rely on to reach Heaven Rank?
Of course...
It was fine that he didn't need it, but there were people who needed it.
Thus, Lin Yun had William send a letter to Faleau.
The fifty Great Mages of his chamber of commerce had to be nurtured, and the unique environment created by the Ancient God's soul fragment was perfectly suited to their needs.
They originally were the ones with the weakest aptitude in the Merlin Family and might not even reach Great Mage realm within their lives. But they were fortunate enough to come across Lin Yun and be sent into his Bone Plane. After reaching the Great Mage realm, they felt as if they had already gained what they had been looking for.
They hadn't even thought of becoming High Mages...
How could they worry about stepping on the path to the Heaven realm?
