Chapter 1397 - Uncanny Disappearance (1/2)

An unfortunate undead mage happened to be in the range. His body was instantly purged by the power of holy light. The black-and-gray soil was cleansed. The bones of the undead creatures were washed, and turned into the best fertilizer.

Death and darkness were banished. The land within 100 kilometers was restored to its original appearance. Fresh grass was growing out of the soil quickly into the most mature state. Their seeds fell onto the land, and grew into even more grass.

In only a couple of seconds, the land within 100 kilometers of the fortress turned green. Then, the greenness spread out unstoppably, and turned an even larger area into a fertile meadow.

There was no aura of death at all, just the air of vitality. It seemed as if this place was still the fertile Mesomiya Plain of the Leviathan Plane that everybody knew.

The holy light was dispersing. Those who were heavily wounded all recovered. The condition of those who were infected by the plague improved too.

All the mages stared at their hands and everything around them, at a loss. They looked at the broken fortress and the boundless meadow that was full of vitality without any aura of death.

Everybody was dumbfounded. They had no idea what was going on. In the center, Lin Yun stood casually, and Lord Shawn exclaimed on his shoulder.

“What a rare scene. The level-7 Heaven Rank holy light mage has released all his vitality and holy light at the same time. That was definitely as powerful as a level-10 Vitality Recovery…”

Lin Yun was amazed. Of all the branches of the law of light, the holy light carried the purest power. It was all about healing and enhancement at the beginning. An outburst of such power wouldn’t destroy anything.

All the power of death and darkness had been dispersed in the area of 100 kilometers. The soil was reinvigorated, and everybody’s wounds were even healed. The plague was weakened too. Many people’s condition had significantly improved, even though they hadn’t recovered yet.

However, the case would’ve been different if a level-7 Heaven Rank fire mage had exploded and unleashed all his mana and vitality. In that case, few people would’ve survived.

All the experts stood where they were, stunned. They had no idea what happened at all. They simply saw the boundless holy light. Then, Noc died, and his Demiplane was not just broken, but simply destroyed.

Nobody understood what happened or why it happened. They all looked at Lin Yun in shock. Some people even rubbed their eyes, and cast Mental Defense on themselves, just in case that they were seeing illusions.

In the end, they saw Lin Yun, who was still safe and sound. Even Lord Shawn on his shoulder was unscathed…

Why was Noc dead and Mafa Merlin alive?

How did Mafa Merlin do it? Damn it. Didn’t Noc hit Mafa Merlin’s Demiplane with his own?

What happened? Did Noc hit the Leviathan Plane with his Demiplane? No, did he hit the Plane of the Undead?

His Demiplane was simply destroyed. What happened?

Is Mafa Merlin’s Demiplane much more powerful than Noc’s?

They were undoubtedly the most knowledgeable people of Noscent, but they had no idea what happened or why.

The level-7 Heaven Rank expert had tried to kill a mage, who was in level 5 of the Heaven Rank a few months earlier, and must’ve just advanced into level 6, in the safest way. The result should’ve been obvious.

The clash depended on nothing but the level. The result was that the weaker mage would be killed, and that the stronger mage would surely win the battle, even though his Demiplane would be more or less damaged.

It was a truth that the Noscent mages had confirmed for countless years. Nobody had ever proved the truth wrong. It was why every higher-level mage could kill a lower-level mage without any suspense after level 5 of the Heaven Rank.

The levels in the Heaven Rank depended on one’s understanding of laws. One’s level would improve when one’s understanding deepened. A level-7 Heaven Rank mage surely knew more than a level-6 Heaven Rank mage did, so the latter would surely die in the clash.

However, nobody understood anymore…

Lin Yun seemed to have just enjoyed a spectacular fireworks show. His face was healthily red, and he was not even breathing heavily.

Lin Yun examined his Natural Demiplane, and felt quite satisfied. Everything in his Natural Demiplane was stable. The wind and mana turbulences were only faster than usual, but regained peace very soon.

Facing Noc’s attack that he was absolutely confident of, Lin Yun simply waited and summoned the projection of his Natural Demiplane when Noc came.

The result was indeed obvious. The Natural Demiplane was first enhanced by infinite Eternal Dark Gold that was transformed into the pillar. Then, 108,000 truth runes were engraved on the pillar.

There were also the 72 King’s Pillars…

His Natural Demiplane had all sorts of elements, blue sky, white clouds, and everything else expected of a real world.

It was like Noc’s Demiplane crashed into a real world, which had been purposefully strengthened by Lin Yun quite a few times, as a floating island.

The result was like an egg brutally hitting a steel mountain. It couldn’t even shake the mountain, and it was destroyed first.

Looking at the view around him, Lin Yun had mixed feelings too. The holy light mages were truly worthy of admiration, but not those from the Holy Light Alliance. Only they could benefit everything around them even when they died.

He looked around, and saw that everyone was gazing at him. He shrugged.

“Why are you looking at me? Sir Noc finally understood the truth of holy light, and repented for everything he did. He believed that he should express his understanding by his life. I couldn’t talk him out of it—”

Before Lin Yun finished it, all the other mages cackled and rolled their eyes. Whoever believed that would be even more stupid than a mole.

Many people looked at Lin Yun cautiously with respect.

The level-5 Heaven Rank mage a few days earlier had reached level 6. Facing a level-7 Heaven Rank mage’s pressure, he was absolutely fine, and even his robe was fine, but his enemy died.

More importantly, there were more than 20 level-5 Heaven Rank mages, a couple of level-6 ones, and two level-7 ones, within a radius of a kilometer, but none knew what happened.

That was the most horrifying part…

It happened right in front of their eyes, but they didn’t know what happened. The unknown meant fear.

Many mages felt cold sweat on their backs. They had thought that Lin Yun was dead for sure, and considered how to minimize the consequences of the incident. Even their robes were sweaty.

The member of the Odin royal family felt that his hands and feet were cold, with cold sweat dripping from his cheeks. He was a level higher than Lin Yun, but he looked at Lin Yun with uncontrollable fear.

I think I heard Noc’s last words…
