645 Mana Devouring Vine (1/2)
The emergence of an Archmage is related to Laws. In general, each Archmage would use a Law to strengthen himself.
And once they reached the Heaven realm, they would completely understand the Law and the mysteries behind the Law, allowing them to even use the Law's power to battle. This was a power that surpassed ordinary mortals, known as Extraordinary Power!
This was also why everyone under the Heaven Rank was considered mortal. This was no longer just a difference in power, it was a natural difference!
Without the power of Laws, no matter how powerful a mortal was, they couldn't withstand Extraordinary Power!
And in God Nations, all the Laws were just playthings to the Gods. Time, Space, even the basic Laws could be completely controlled by the Gods.
Gods could set up the earth above and the sky below, they could make rivers go up and could even give limitless lifespan to mortals. Anything they could think of, they could do in the God Nations.
But every God Nation had its own properties, just like how the Intrepid, which had been made out of Senders' remains, had an area filled with illusions and nightmares that would prevent people from realizing that they were dreaming. This wasn't the kind of power that mortals could comprehend.
Only a bit of power remained in the Intrepid, yet it was enough to toy with Lin Yun and the others, regardless of their willpower. Just how powerful would a complete God Nation be?
Lin Yun looked a bit foolish as he stared at the illusory scene before his eyes, thinking for the first time that no ancient book and no ancient record could describe that kind of power. Even he couldn't imagine how formidable a living God would be.
If that feeling had to be described, it would be close to the feeling a frog would feel when leaving its well and seeing the endless sky.
After a long breath, Lin Yun walked off of the prow and stepped onto a branch of the Wisdom Tree. If he hadn't seen it before from the Intrepid, he wouldn't have been able to tell at first glance that this wide area under his feet was only a branch.
He could feel the dense mana flowing under his feet, and his surroundings were covered in waist-high grass that was emitting mana fluctuations. At the top of the root-like branch that seemed to cover the sky grew countless purple Windbell Flowers, and from time to time, a drop of mana could be seen dripping out from those flowers.
A group of fist-sized birds with bright plumage were flocking together there, feeding on those droplets of mana. Chirping sounds echoed, but no one relaxed, because each of those birds was emitting mana fluctuations above level 20.
”Careful!” Lin Yun warned them with a solemn tone.
Enderfa had already started rousing the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel before Lin Yun even said anything. Xiuban was firmly holding onto Carnage, his eyes continuously checking his surroundings.
Meanwhile, Zeuss' legs were trembling. He was only a 7th Rank Magic Apprentice at the moment... He still had to increase his rank.
A group of harmless birds in this place was actually above level 20. He couldn't even defeat a random bird in this place.
There was nothing coming from the grass, only the quiet sound of the grass swaying in the wind. But Lin Yun still cautiously summoned ten Rock Puppets.
The Rock Puppets surrounded them as they moved forward, acting as pathfinders, clearing the path ahead of them.
They detected no danger for the first kilometer or so of travel. In fact, besides those flying birds, they didn't find any living animals.
But suddenly, Lin Yun's expression changed, as he suddenly lost contact with a pathfinding puppet thirty meters ahead of him.
Then, less than two seconds after, he lost contact with the puppets on the sides and the back, losing contact with all ten of them!
Just as the first puppet stopped responding, Lin Yun raised his Draconic Staff and a large, flaming vortex appeared in front of him. Fireblades flew out from the fire vortex and attacked everything in a circle around them, making no distinctions.
The grass instantly turned into ashes, and all the vegetation within several dozen meters was instantly cleared.
But the sound of grinding metal could be heard when the Fireblades reached fifty meters out.
Several dozens of them slashed into jade-colored vines, causing sparks to fly up as the vines twisted around crazily.
Vines that were over a meter tall rose up from all directions. Sharp barbs grew on those jade-like vines, and the very air seemed to be torn apart when they swung.
Unconsciously, everyone had been surrounded by those vines.
”Mana Devouring Vines…” Zeuss shook as he said those words.
He was clearly terrified as he rushed to the center of the group, afraid of being caught by those vines.
