470 Accelerated Transformation (1/2)
Lin Yun originally thought that these people would become High Mages within three months. They already reached 9th Rank after two months, there would be no issue reaching High Mage realm within the last month.
But he could no longer wait.
To be more precise, it was because of the collaboration with the Black Tower. When the war was officially started, he wouldn't be able to avoid taking out a powerful force. Even if the Black Tower was the main force of that war, the five hundred Great Mages from the Merlin family legion felt like grains of sand, it made him a bit embarrassed.
It would be better presentable if fifty High Mages were added.
Moreover, they weren't ordinary High Mages...
Lin Yun didn't disturb their meditation and instead went to the forest in the center of the Demiplane, following the path from his memory. He soon reached the square-shaped array and was assaulted by thick mana. A few hundred meters ahead of him was a pond in which liquid mana flowed and at the bottom of the pond was a glittering radiance. Lin Yun naturally knew that mana crystals had been piling up at the bottom of the pond for a long time.
The two fused Ancient God's soul fragments were peacefully laying on a vacant surface, their surroundings absolutely empty. The changes within the Demiplane had been triggered by the Ancient God's soul fragments, and as Lin Yun approached, he could feel the frightening mana fluctuations, making him somewhat fearful. A wisp of cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
His back was already drenched by the time he arrived in front of the Ancient God's soul fragments. Lin Yun was tense as he looked at the Ancient God's soul fragments, before slowly crouching and reaching his hand to grab the soul fragments. He could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within the Ancient God's soul fragments, it was hard to describe.
Even with his current strength, he still felt insignificant in front of the Ancient God's soul fragments.
”Damnit….”
Lin Yun cursed, to be honest, if he could, he would never touch this thing. Ancient Gods were terrifying existences, everything related to them was taboo, touching a taboo would bring countless disasters.
But...
Nothing could be done about it, he needed to join with the Black Tower soon to launch an attack on the Thawing Fire Tribe, if he couldn't present a decent force by then, they might end up parting on bad terms and his several months of work would turn to smoke. Who knows when he could get the Chromatic Dragon Crystal within the Raising Dragon Array if he missed this opportunity.
Thus, he could only choose to take the risk and go fetch the Ancient God's soul fragment. If everything went smoothly, the time those fifty mages needed to reach the High Mage realm would be greatly cut down.
”Damn it! Merlin! What are you doing…”
Just as Lin Yun picked up the Ancient God's soul fragment, a black smoke rose up from the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, distorting before turning into three strange faces. These three faces were filled with alarmed expressions as they dazedly looked at Lin Yun, letting out a shocked shout, ”Damnit, this isn't a joke! I already told you, Ancient God's soul fragments are the most evil and frightening things in this world, you'll bring disaster upon yourself.”
”Yeah, I know…”
Enderfa's sudden appearance as well as his exasperated words startled Lin Yun, he almost let the soul fragment fall to the ground. With a pale expression, he turned and looked at Enderfa, rolling his eyes, 'If I didn't have a better option, would I go for the Ancient God's soul fragment?'
But Lin Yun had no intention to explain his plan to Enderfa as he was still holding the soul fragment, remaining vigilant.
”Heavens, what do you know? You still dare to touch an Ancient God's soul fragment…” Lin Yun's answer made Enderfa's fearful expressions turn to anger, his voice carrying a lot more regrets. He was too unlucky, he originally thought that the young mage he followed had boundless prospects and that he might regain his strength in the future, as well as possess a body.
But, the longer he followed this young mage, the more he felt that this way of thinking was naive. What was this young mage doing? In the Aurij Mountain Range, he put an Ancient God's soul fragment in his Demiplane, he then made a trip to the Tulan Mountain Range. More and more dangerous events kept happening, scaring him every time.
And today, he actually provoked the sleeping Ancient God's soul fragments, this was simply courting death.
It would be a disaster if the Ancient God's soul awakened, just like in that valley back then. Not only the young mage, but Enderfa and the fifty mages in this Demiplane would be buried in that disaster.
