However, Lin Yun knew very well that the fifty High Mages were only displaying a very small portion of their fighting potential, after all, they had advanced to the High Mage realm not long ago and their control of the Blazing Storm, this battle-type Magic Conducting Rune, wasn't perfect; moreover, they had yet to be well coordinated.

Naturally, these weren't issues, they only needed time and battle practice.

And during this time, the fifty mages didn't let Lin Yun down, the strength they displayed was out of the ordinary.

In the special environment of the Ghost Valley, the mana was so dense that it almost formed a mist, thus, countless powerful magic beasts resided there. Magic beasts over level 20 were very common. The worst time was on the second day, when over twenty magic beasts rushed out of the forest, all over level 20. But even then, those magic beasts weren't able to reach 30 meters from the army before being annihilated by the fifty High Mages.

As they went through battle after battle, those High Mages became more and more comfortable with their own powers and the Blazing Storm Magic Conducting Rune. They had significant improvements after every fight, after all, they had been meditating day and night in the Demiplane, absorbing the mana from within. The aura of the Ancient God had condensed within their bodies and completely transformed their talents. Their comprehension was a lot higher than ordinary people and they wouldn't be much inferior to the so-called young geniuses.

A heart-wrenching battle happened when they approached the depths of the Ghost Valley as a level 35 magic beast appeared. The battle lasted over twenty minutes until the tyrannical magic beast unwillingly collapsed under the siege of the fifty High Mages. Although the battle had been long, the fifty High Mages remained composed, not suffering a single injury.

The performance of these fifty High Mages was undoubtedly breathtaking, shocking even Yuri and Ida. Only Lin Yun knew that a level 35 magic beast wasn't the limit of these fifty High Mages.

As night fell, the Caster Legion halted their progress and looked for an open space to pitch camp. At that time, Ida and Yuri came over, worry plastered all over their faces.

”High Mage Mafa, we are sorry to disturb you when you are resting…”

”Haha, it's fine, Sirs, you came over at such a late hour, is there something on your minds?” Lin Yun smiled at the two, not minding it too much.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

”Yes…”

Ida took a deep breath, hesitating for a few instants, before resolutely saying, ”High Mage Mafa, such a big matter happened recently, the Thawing Fire Tribe should have already become aware of it and reinforcements could already be on their way and they might reach the Ghost Valley soon. We have taken advantage of them this time and annihilated almost the entire Beastmen army, while securing control of over half of the Ghost Valley. We should stop advancing and enter a defensive state to resist the reinforcements of the Thawing Fire Tribe…”

This was truly necessary in his eyes, he would have definitely done so if he was the Commander.

The Caster Legion only had three powerhouses above the High Mage realm; himself, Yuri, and the young mage. There was about sixty High Mages, while the rest were Great Mages. Although such a force was very powerful, it wouldn't be able to withstand the Thawing Fire Tribe.

Ida had participated in a few battles against the Thawing Fire Tribe and naturally knew how frightening the Thawing Fire Tribe's true power was. Apart from the six Great Prophets and the Tribal Chief, the tribe still had a large amount of powerhouses and elite troops. Even if the Thawing Fire Tribe suffered disastrous losses in the battle over the Ghost Valley, they wouldn't watch as the Ghost Valley fell into enemy hands.

They would definitely send help, it was only a matter of time.

The Caster Legion had annihilated one of their armies and occupied over half of the Ghost Valley, they had gained a lot from them. It could even be said to be the greatest gain of the Merlin Family in the last few dozen years. If they could fully defend and obtain Thorne and the Planar Legion's support, they might be able to keep control over half of the Ghost Valley.

But if they were greedy and kept moving forward, they might end up encountering the Thawing Fire Tribe's reinforcements. At that time, the Caster Legion might land in a predicament, and possibly even face destruction.

Because of this, Ida and Yuri spent the entire day worrying and came to see the young mage at night when the army stopped to pitch camp.

The consequences would be disastrous if the Caster Legion kept going...

”High Mage Mafa, you should know that our Merlin Family and the Thawing Fire Tribe had remained in a deadlock over the Ghost Valley for close to a hundred years. The Thawing Fire Tribe had never given up this battle. Although the losses of the army stationed there had been devastating, it wouldn't stop them, reinforcements would come sooner or later. I think it's better to be a bit more cautious…” Yuri was earnestly trying to convince him.

”Haha, there is no need to defend for the time being, we are continuing towards the depths, the farther, the better…” Lin Yun had a calm expression on his face. He softly waved his hand, as he said without care.

”This… This is unreasonable!”

Ida and Yuri almost choked, they were deathly pale. They looked at each other and could see the worry in the other's eyes, 'What should we do?'
