Chapter 1373: Leviathan

After the suffocating pressure was gone, the air finally began to circulate again. There was a gentle breeze on the grass, which was moving like waves in the breeze.

Earlier, all the grass in the prairie seemed to be frozen, and couldn’t move at all.

After the confrontation was over, the mages who were relatively weak finally moved towards the center. Even though they had been almost 10 kilometers away, the two top experts had stopped them from moving forward.

Lin Yun had actually been capable of moving forward against the pressure. It would’ve been fine for him to reach the circle of level-7 Heaven Rank experts. But if he had done that, he would’ve exposed his strength. He would rather hide it as Agalon did, so he simply waited in the rear patiently.

So many experts, including four level-9 Heaven Rank ones, had gathered here. The matter that brought them here couldn’t be trivial.

After everything was back to peace, Agalon opened his mouth.

“Some of you already know what we’re going to discuss, but most of you probably don’t know why you’re here to attend this meeting. So, I’ll just introduce the matter again.”

Agalon sounded quite grave. The other three men at the crystal table looked grave too. The mage who had tattoos on his face seemed quite ominous, but didn’t interrupt Agalon.

Lin Yun frowned, and wondered what could’ve possibly gathered so many experts. Those people represented most of the forces of Noscent.

Some of them were from the Odin Kingdom, some were from the Sten Kingdom, some came from the boundless forest in the south, and there was even a level-5 Heaven Rank expert from the royal family of the Andlusa Kingdom.

“You must be familiar with the Leviathan Plane, which is the most important resource plane for Noscent. However, not everybody knows that the Leviathan Plane is the closest plane to Noscent. The space barrier between them is very feeble.

“The environment in that plane is similar to Noscent’s, and their size is similar too. Not all of you have an enterprise in the Leviathan Plane. However, the matter that I’m going to tell you concerns each of you.

“As a matter of fact, everybody in Noscent will be in great trouble!”

Hearing what Agalon said, the expressions of the experts who stood in the front all changed. The three men who were sitting by the crystal table didn’t seem surprised, as if they already knew what Agalon was going to say.

A level-8 Heaven Rank mage, who was as slim as a skeleton, asked, “Sir Agalon, are you talking about Leviathan?”

Before Agalon said anything, the mage who had strange tattoos on his head had put on a weird smile.

“No, not Leviathan. That guy is already as dead as can be. He cannot possibly revive. This whole thing is much more troublesome than Leviathan.”

Lin Yun stood in the rear and listened quietly. He was quite shocked at first, and became even more worried as he listened on.

Leviathan was allegedly the very first animal that had appeared in the world.

Nobody knew what Leviathan looked like, but it was respected as the Ancestor of Beasts. At the beginning, beasts didn’t carry magic power, so they strengthened themselves by increasing their body’s sturdiness and their physical force.

Leviathan was one of the strongest of such beasts. It could be resurrected even if it only had one drop of blood left. It was unbelievably terrifying, and couldn’t be killed in any way. When it was dying, it would leave a drop of blood that could make it revive.

At the beginning, Leviathan was indeed a beast that didn’t carry any magic power, although it was much stronger than any of the beasts that carried magic power these days. Later, the plane Leviathan was in contact with Noscent, and a Planar Path was established. Since then, Leviathan had absorbed magic power, and evolved into something even more terrifying.

All animals and magical beasts of Noscent were Leviathan’s offspring in a way.

The Leviathan Plane had existed for a long time since the beginning of the era of gods. At that time, the sole purpose of the Leviathan Plane was to imprison Leviathan. The king of gods personally exiled Leviathan to that plane, which was supposed to be a cage that Leviathan would die inside.

When the era of mages began, Leviathan, which was closest to Noscent and had a thin wall, was spotted.

The place had never been developed. It was resourceful, and had a similar environment to Noscent’s. It was almost a paradise. There, it was possible to find all resources that had been found in Noscent. There was even a huge reserve of many resources that had been exhausted in Noscent.

How could the mages not develop the perfect world that was incapable of resistance?

That was when the disaster began. Leviathan showed up and killed countless experts, passing out its bloodline. It was killed and revived again and again.

In the end, when it was pushed into a corner, Leviathan caused a problem to Noscent that could never be addressed by detonating itself, and spreading its blood across Noscent.

In Noscent, most animals on the earth, in the sky, and in the sea carried Leviathan’s bloodline. The outbreak of magical beasts had caused a prolonged disaster to human beings. They still existed in Noscent even to this day.

The most important reason why they had never been killed was not just that human beings needed them as materials, but also that it was impossible to eliminate all magical beasts.

In particular, it was absolutely impossible to eliminate the magical beasts in the sea. Up until now, the Boundless Sea was still a forbidden place for human beings, and couldn’t be explored until 10,000 years later.

Although the slaughter continued, human beings never dared to eliminate all the magical beasts. After all, nobody could foresee what would happen in a total war.

Leviathan was dead, but the trouble it caused hadn’t been resolved yet, and would probably always remain unresolved.

It was indeed true that Leviathan would never revive. After blowing itself up, Leviathan had spread its bloodline throughout Noscent. It was impossible to bring Leviathan back to life until all the magical beasts that contained its bloodline in Noscent were killed.

Obviously, that was impossible even if Noscent was destroyed. After so many years, a lot of formidable magical beasts had been born in Noscent. In particular, Lin Yun knew the names of a dozen level-49 magical beasts in the Boundless Sea.

It was unlikely that those magical beasts would all kill themselves to resurrect Leviathan, so the trouble in the Leviathan Plane couldn’t be Leviathan’s resurrection.

Lin Yun knew that very well. As a matter of fact, 10,000 years later, there was a maniac who tried to resurrect Leviathan. He was very interested in Leviathan, the Ancestor of Animals, and believed that its immortal body was much more terrifying than those of the undead.

However, the maniac gave up after hundreds of years of research and killing countless magical beasts because he would have to kill all the magical beasts in Noscent that carried Leviathan’s bloodline in order to resurrect Leviathan.

Leviathan’s bloodline had already been dissipated and dissolved after countless years of reproduction. It was already distributed to all magical beasts, and even those beyond Noscent. It was impossible to kill all of them.

The Leviathan Plane’s problem wasn’t Leviathan. Then what was it?

Not just Lin Yun, but everybody else was curious too.

“I went to the space battlefield. Then, because of an accident, I arrived in the Leviathan Plane, where I discovered something terrifying.

“The Plane of the Undead and the Leviathan Plane have already collided. Some parts of the planes are overlapping. The laws of the planes are starting to change.
