Chapter 717 - Hellfire (1/2)

The greenish-black entrance looked very old. It gave them the feeling of having been there for an entire era.

And not far from the entrance, the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation was standing there.

The Incarnation was shocked when it saw Lin Yun's group appear and kept retreating in fear, involuntarily letting out, ”How could you find me!?”

Lin Yun sneered as he looked at the Incarnation of the Life Pattern Crystal.

He already knew that this guy wasn't very powerful, but he was very crafty and was using his abilities to create troubles to accomplish what he couldn't do with his own strength.

From the Dark Elven Souls to the King Arena, everything had been part of his scheme. He even planned to make them withstand the Beastman army.

Lin Yun definitely didn't believe in the odds of randomly meeting the Beastman army twice in a row. That Ash Beastman army was huge, and when they marched, it was definitely impossible for the other side to discover them first, let alone directly surround them.

'How could that happen? This guy is purely scheming to get profits, he wouldn't ignore it if Lodney and I fought, he definitely wouldn't be able to stop himself from making a move.

'And sure enough! Hmpf, don't think you can run away if you interfere!'

Lin Yun sneered as he looked at the Dark Elven appearance of the Incarnation.

Lin Yun had prepared a secret card before the battle, or else he wouldn't have bothered to listen to Lodney speak for such a long time, and he wouldn't have let this Army Overseer live all this while. Lin Yun had used the time to make preparations

That secret card was a special teleportation array, that had virtually no restrictions when it came to distance or environment, but it could be said that it had the greatest restriction.

Because that teleportation array was called Nowhere To Hide! An imprint could be placed on a target, and as long as the conditions were met, he could instantly teleport to the target's side.

When Noscent had developed to its peak, that special array was widely used. Any genius especially nurtured by a major force would have this imprint on his body.

When these geniuses encountered a danger they couldn't face, they would trigger the imprint, warning the person who had placed the imprint.

And with it, the powerhouses of those major forces could teleport to them in an instant.

Before the Mana Baptism Potions were invented, the geniuses of the younger generation were even more important than powerful experts, and whether someone had such an imprint on their body was already the main difference between a genius and someone who wasn't.

Because the Nowhere To Hide Array was too troublesome to use.

The most basic requirement of the Nowhere To Hide Array was that it needed to be located in an area rich in elements, and those elements had to be berserk and chaotic.

And such a place could only be found in one situation, which was during the battle between powerhouses. The longer the fight, the faster the elements rose, to the point that they would be flaring up until the whole place looked as if it was boiling.

Moreover, the further the distance, the more berserk the elements needed to be. If it wasn't far, they might only need two Archmages fighting each other to be able to reach it, but if the distance was too great, only a battle between Heaven Rank powerhouses would be enough to create the needed effects.

In the future, there was even a record of a Heaven Rank Mage borrowing that imprint to flee. When that Heaven Rank Mage opened a new plane, something unexpected appeared and the Planar Path shattered, and he ended up falling into a massive elemental storm.

Those berserk elements had reached the extreme, but the powerful Heaven Mage used the Nowhere To Hide Array to return to Noscent. He was known for some time as the luckiest person.

Because the Nowhere To Hide Array not only required dense and berserk elements, but there was another crucial requirement, which was the degree of mana interference.

If the target of the array was in a place that completely shielded mana, and if the target didn't use mana, then the array might not work.

Even if it was only a few kilometers, they would need Heaven Rank Mages to battle to be able to use it.

The target utilizing mana was equivalent to receiving coordinates in an instant, and having those coordinates was the key to using the Nowhere To Hide Array.

That Heaven Rank Mage was able to flee the huge elemental storm because the person he had put an imprint on happened to be in the middle of a battle.

When mana is flaring up, the coordinates are the clearest, so no matter how far apart, they can be sensed.
