Chapter 1379 - Elemental Spirit King (1/2)
The power of law that Lin Yun had mastered could only help him approach this part, but couldn’t get him any closer to the core. He couldn’t reach the core until he fully mastered the law of water.
As a matter of fact, as long as he showed the complete version of the law of water, he wouldn’t even need to search; the core would appear wherever he was.
He had reached the core only because the natural protection of his Natural Demiplane was activated. It had projected the laws from the Natural Demiplane.
The projected laws were identical to the laws that had evolved in the Demiplane. Lin Yun couldn’t control them yet.
Lin Yun had only learned 20% of the complete law of water, and could only wield 20% of its power. The rest couldn’t be utilized until the Natural Demiplane projected the law with its natural protection.
That was the same as before Lin Yun advanced into level 5 of the Heaven Rank. The Natural Demiplane’s projection of laws only depended on how evolved those laws were inside the Natural Demiplane. It didn’t depend on Lin Yun’s understanding.
The water in this world didn’t have any sentience. It would only appear where it should be according to fixed rules. The result would be the same whether Lin Yun had mastered the law of water or it had just evolved in the Natural Demiplane.
After leaving his mark, Lin Yun disappeared from the world of water instantly.
He had estimated that the spell worlds of light and darkness would follow the worlds of earth, fire, water, and wind. However, after leaving his mark in the world of water, which was on the bottom level, he found no more worlds down below. There was no telling whether those four worlds were all, or he was just too weak to see the new ones.
He had destroyed the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras’ own Magic Tool Incarnation, and turned Syudos into it. However, Syudos was incomplete as a Magic Tool Incarnation.
At the beginning, Syudos was only able to control the world of flames. He could only control the worlds that Lin Yun conquered, and make the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras more powerful.
Nobody knew how many worlds there were in the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras except the original Magic Tool Incarnation. In real history, the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras had never become an Extraordinary Magic Tool. Nobody had ever collected all the Fate Tablets.
The Book of Ten Thousand Mantras, which allegedly contained all spells of the world, might have other abilities besides the spells, but that was uncertain. After all, it had always been known as a True Spirit Magic Tool.
The Book of Ten Thousand Mantras had dark spells, but didn’t have a world of dark spells, which surprised Lin Yun.
He left the world of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras, and it began to change. The enormous gate was enshrouded in the power of fire, ice, wind, and earth, and so was the surface of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras.
Gradually, all the four powers were gone, replaced by a colorful streak of brilliance that covered the surface of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras. The power of earth, fire, water, and wind was circulating, and the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras’ aura was expanding quickly.
After the brilliance on the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras was gone, Syudos emerged from the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras. He didn’t look like a cloud of floating energy, but more like a Medusa with four arms. He had Medusa’s tail and a human upper body. His face looked like that of an elf. There was a different power on each of his arms.
The power of earth, fire, water, and wind was on his arms, but he was only 30 centimeters tall.
Syudos was shocked and delighted. He observed his own body, which was now a real entity. It meant that he was no longer just a Magic Tool Incarnation.
“Sir Merlin, I… I think I’ve evolved into an Elemental Spirit King…” Syudos opened his mouth, stammering. He sounded like a kid at first, then a female, then a male, and in the end an old man…
When he talked, his voice was changing even in the same sentence, but he didn’t sound unnatural at all. Everything was smooth.
There was shock on all of Enderfa’s faces. Then, he mumbled jealously, “Damn it, every time I hear the Elemental Spirit King’s voice, I want to kill him. It’s so disgusting…”
Xiuban and the others looked weird. They found it hard to accept the strange changing voice. It almost sounded like there were dozens of people talking together inside Syudos’ body.
It sounded even weirder when he said short sentences. Every syllable was in a different tone.
Lin Yun wasn’t too surprised. Still, he found it quite creepy, even though he had been prepared.
The Fire Element Spirit, the Wind Element Spirit, the Ice Element Spirit, and the Earth Element Spirit…
They were creatures that were unique to the elemental planes. They were the purest elemental creatures, and in a way represented those elements.
The Elemental Spirits were creatures that boasted the power of four elements at the same time. Their population was extremely small. The strongest of them were the Elemental Spirit Kings.
The Elemental Spirit Kings were naturally immune to all elemental spells, and wouldn’t get hurt by elements. For them, an elemental storm was just a big swimming pool. In fact, they spent most of their time living inside elemental storms. The storms that were terrible and deadly to other creatures were places that the Elemental Spirit Kings found most comfortable.
Under normal circumstances, every Elemental Spirit King was beyond the Heaven Rank…
Lin Yun had expected Syudos to evolve into an Elemental Spirit. He didn’t anticipate that he would turn into an Elemental Spirit King so quickly. It also suggested that the Elemental Spirit King was just a category, not a level. All the recorded Elemental Spirit Kings were above the Heaven Rank, but there had to be unrecorded Elemental Spirit Kings who were below the Heaven Rank.
When the lunatics of the Thorny Crown summoned the devil overlord, the devil overlord was scared off upon detecting the Elemental Spirit King, and even spat out the soul it got.
It probably cut off all the connections because it was afraid that the Elemental Spirit King would chase it down. Even in hell, nobody would be able to stop an Elemental Spirit King from going on a rampage.
The Elemental Spirit Kings were almost immortal wherever there were elements. All elements were their source of power. There were naturally elements in hell too. Only those who had brain problems would fight the Elemental Spirit King where there were elements…
The most obvious feature of the Elemental Spirit Kings was that their voices represented the cycle of life. They started their every sentence with a kid’s voice, and ended it with that of an old man’s. Elements would rise and ebb as they talked.
However, although such creatures were powerful and wise, they were neither evil nor kindhearted, just like elements. They wouldn’t destroy things, but they wouldn’t give a hand, either.
Under normal circumstances, they rarely intervened with human beings. In fact, 10,000 years later, Noscent’s mages would go to an Elemental Spirit King, and ask for his help, but he was unwilling to offer it. He simply gave a special magic tool, which had recorded a sentence that the Elemental Spirit King said.
The magic tool was eventually embedded in the Shelter Tower. Thanks to the Elemental Spirit King’s spell, elements rose and ebbed and slowed down Noscent’s declination.
