Chapter 1259 Meeting a Peer and Hearing a Story
A difference of a thousandth would already be the dividing factor between two species. A slight difference in the Laws would make two completely different worlds.
The clashing Laws reached a balance in less than three minutes and the two meters around him were based on the normal Laws of the world.
Two meters were more than enough…
Because the space was normal within these two meters and Lin Yun could keep climbing the hill normally.
After ten minutes, Lin Yun reached the top of the hill. The angry pressure of the world suddenly disappeared and the changes in the Laws also disappeared.
Lin Yun was a bit pale as he scattered the Demiplane’s shadow. At this moment, he could only use the Natural Demiplane as a wireless mana storage and couldn’t use the power of the Demiplane. He only used a cheap trick this time, nothing more.
But these ten minutes were enough for the mana within the mana lake to decrease by a third.
After a deep breath, he looked at his surroundings and discovered that it was a lot different from what he had imagined.
The hilltop was a flat uneven platform spreading over a kilometer. A fence could be seen around a small vegetable field in front of a wooden cabin, and the vegetables growing within could be treated as fruits.
Looking at this simple small courtyard, Lin Yun turned towards the difficult path he had just taken with a weird gaze.
“Since you are here, you might as well come in and taste the cherry tomatoes I planted. They are very tasty.”
An aged gentle voice came from within the wooden house. It didn’t sound forceful at all, it sounded like an hospitable old man from a small mountain village.
Lin Yun walked to the small courtyard and felt no change in the Laws, that small wooden house had no spatial expansion, nor any sophisticated alchemy tools, it was truly an ordinary wooden house.
It had a wooden bed, a wooden table, and a simple ceramic teapot placed on a small stove. The teapot was already boiling and the sweet fragrance of tea permeated the wooden house.
The only interesting thing was the star chart hung on the wall. But it wasn’t a Magic Tool, it was only an ordinary painting.
An old man wearing hemp clothes was sitting on the other side of the table. His hair had already turned silver, but he had the face of a young man. However, his gaze was filled with ancient wisdom.
Lin Yun was startled when he saw that old man, he didn’t dare to underestimate him even if he looked like an old farmer.
He didn’t feel any powerful aura or mana fluctuations, this only explained one thing, that old man wasn’t ordinary at all.
Lin Yun didn’t dare to offend him and sincerely bowed.
“Mafa Merlin pays respect to Sir.”
A smile could be seen on the old man’s face as he nodded.
“Sit down. I personally plucked some Puluo Tea Leaves and they have just finished boiling. Make yourself comfortable.
“You must be curious about who I am and why I wanted to see you, right? My name is Agalon, I’ve been wanting to meet you for a long time.”
Lin Yun almost jumped off his chair when he heard that name.
The Great Astrologian Agalon, that name was still engraved in many people’s memories during the peak of the magic era. It would even appear in the books of that era.
He learnt Agalon’s name when he read about Natural Demiplanes, and it had left a very deep impression. It was because of the Great Astrologian Agalon that Natural Demiplanes became known in Noscent and that people learnt how terrifying their owners could become.
Even after a few millennia, there was no shortage of mages seeking Natural Demiplanes.
When Gandaph mentioned that an esteemed person wanted to see him, the Great Astrologian was one of the possible powerhouses he considered, but he couldn’t be certain and even felt that the probability was very low.
According to written history, when Agalon was at the peak of the Heaven Rank, he fought with another Peak Heaven Rank powerhouse in a shocking battle, resulting in his Natural Demiplane being exposed to Noscent’s eyes. After the battle, many people learnt how Agalon’s infinite mana and terrifying power were obtained and the search for Natural Demiplanes became popular.
After many years, the next powerhouse to obtain a Natural Demiplane appeared and the secrets of Natural Demiplanes spread out.
But there had been no rumors of a battle between Agalon and another Heaven Rank powerhouse recently. A battle between two Peak Heaven Rank powerhouses couldn’t happen without any information leaking. With Lin Yun’s current strength and status, it was impossible to not hear about it.
And looking at Agalon, it was obvious that he was already at the peak of the Heaven Rank. He was about to ignite his Godfire, he already surpassed the Heaven Rank and was just lacking the last step to ignite his Godfire. If not for that, he wouldn’t have been able to change the Laws.
Other Heaven Rank powerhouses might not be able to do it, but Agalon definitely could before igniting his Godfire.
‘Was there a mistake in the records of history?’
Lin Yun was a bit confused. Agalon already reached the end of the Heaven realm, which only proved one thing, the battle that was supposed to happen didn’t happen!
‘Has history already been altered?
‘Is this the butterfly effect caused by my actions?’
Lin Yun’s expression turned complex as he thought about a lot of things at once, ‘Was it because I changed the future of the Raging Flame Plane? Or because I established the Gilded Rose in the Andlusa Kingdom? These matters couldn’t be said to be very important to Noscent’s history.
‘But those small changes affected Agalon, stopping him from getting into a fight with another Peak Heaven Rank powerhouse which would influence Noscent for millenia.’
Ever since he transmigrated, this was the first time Lin Yun could truly breathe. The pressure of the apocalypse had been looming over his head all this time. He had always been seeking the truth about the end of Noscent, and a way to survive it.
And there was finally something that made Lin Yun feel that history started changing, this was undoubtedly a good news.
Agalon watched Lin Yun in silence, waiting for him to calm down before speaking again, almost startling Lin Yun once again.
“Sir Mafa Merlin, are you willing to lead the Starry Sky College?”
Lin Yun was shocked and promptly shook his head.
“Sir Agalon, you must be teasing me, how could I do that…”
Agalon smiled as if he wasn’t surprised and then personally poured a cup of tea for Lin Yun.
“Don’t be so quick to refuse. In fact, I’ve been paying attention to you for a while now. Extremely frantic battles, almost unlimited mana, and strength surpassing your own rank.
