End of the Magic Era Chapter 1325 - Outburst

Chapter 1325: Outburst

The mana crystal in the center looked like a monster that would swallow everything. From each hole, a mixed storm was erupting, and moving towards the enormous mana crystal in the center.

The roaring gale was practically carrying everything forth in the narrow channels. Xiuban stabbed his hands into the wall to fixate himself. Reina stuck herself to the wall, freezing herself in the ice in a radius of several meters to avoid the storms.

Lin Yun, Lord Shawn, and Xiusi were also stuck to the wall. They were enshrouded in pure magic brilliance, which protected them like a smooth web.

Frightened, Lord Shawn had turned into the size of a hand on Lin Yun’s shoulder, and was s.h.i.+vering while clinging on to his robe.

“Merlin, we should’ve caught up with that freaking b.a.s.t.a.r.d and killed her. Even if our exploration had failed because of that, we wouldn’t have been caught in this awkward position. d.a.m.n it, the monster has woken up. I can feel that its soul is awakening. Its soul is very powerful. It’s at least level-48. We’re doomed…”

Xiusi flapped his wings, and the power of s.p.a.ce flashed on his body. He was about to escape, but Lin Yun caught him.

“Let go of me! Let go of me! Lord Xiusi is about to be eaten! d.a.m.n it, Lord Xiusi is about to be eaten…”

Xiusi cried at the loudest of his voice. As a special spatial beast, Xiusi had the keenest senses. He already detected that the monster was about to wake up…

Lin Yun looked rather awful, and grabbed Xiusi by his neck.

“Idiot, just lie down. If you want the monster to notice you first, just run. We’re inside this monster’s body.”

What Lin Yun said made Xiusi stop struggling. Indeed, he was a spatial beast, and was very familiar with s.p.a.ce. However, it didn’t mean that he could do anything he wanted inside the body of another spatial beast. A monster that had turned its body into a plane would definitely swallow him the moment he escaped with the power of s.p.a.ce…

The gales of magic power were raging. There was also a vague sense of rejection. The walls behind them seemed to be rejecting them. They were rejected by this s.p.a.ce.

The moment the rejection force appeared, an opposite force emerged inside everybody’s body, and neutralized the rejection force when they collided.

The rejection force was gone. All they needed to do was resist the horrifying storm of mana…

The purest mana was horrifyingly powerful when it was gathered into a storm. Everybody had to use more than half of their strength to resist the storms.

In the spherical s.p.a.ce, countless ghosts were pulled out of the caverns, and ripped to shreds. The power of death was annihilated by the abundant mana. The remaining soul power was torn apart again and again in the storms.

The soul power that the ghosts left behind dispersed continuously in the storms that felt like a millstone. Only the core essence remained in the end. Then, the last bit of the purest soul power was absorbed by the mana crystal.

Inside the mana crystal, ma.s.sive and awe-inspiring soul waves appeared. The essence of the ghosts’ soul power that had been ground and polished was swallowed by the soul inside the mana crystal.

As if it enjoyed the food, the horrifying attraction force became even more powerful. The ghosts were no longer erupting from the holes on their own, but were pulled by the horrifying mana violently, and then torn to shreds.

Inside one of the caverns, everybody who was still struggling to resist the storms was dumbfounded.

n.o.body expected that the pure mana could be so horrifyingly and unreasonably powerful. It was true that one wouldn’t need any tricks to win a battle when one was overwhelmingly strong. Everybody found it difficult to resist the rising mana.

“What a horrifying guy, and what a huge soul. Its soul is hundreds of meters tall. That’s horrifying. It has eliminated the impurities in the ghosts’ soul power just with mana, leaving only the purest essence to swallow.”

“d.a.m.n it, Merlin, is it really an unintelligent monster? You must be kidding me. It’s so skilled at extracting the soul essence with mana. Do you really think it’s easy to deal with it?”

Lord Shawn crouched on Lin Yun’s shoulder without caring about his image. He looked at the enormous mana crystal with fear glittering in his eyes. Xiusi, too, hid his head below his wings, and s.h.i.+vered like a scared pigeon.

Soul creatures were naturally awed by any other soul creatures whose level was significantly higher than theirs.

Countless ghosts were sucked out of the caverns, minced, polished, and swallowed. In a dozen seconds, at least 100,000 ghosts were sucked out and torn into pieces.

All of a sudden, 10 times more ghosts were erupting from the holes. Sunny, whose face was scary and covered in mud and blood, dashed out of the caverns too.

The Screaming Ghosts’ screams and the devil’s whisper echoed in the spherical s.p.a.ce at the same time. Sunny laughed crazily.

“Mafa Merlin, Mafa Merlin… You’re doomed. Just go to h.e.l.l. Myers, that disgusting old fart, can go to h.e.l.l with you. The great devil lord will definitely be interested in such a huge mana crystal. The soul inside it will be the most delicious dessert.

“All of you will go to h.e.l.l. All of you will die…”

An ominous vibe spread out. The power that belonged to h.e.l.l sprawled uncontrollably. Countless ghosts were showing up. Making use of the suffocatingly abundant mana, Sunny began to summon ghosts crazily. Those ghosts were minced almost the moment they showed up, but even more ghosts were then summoned.

When the ghosts died, their souls were shattered and transformed into a great amount of soul power. Even though the soul power was impure, it sufficed as fuel.

Countless ghosts appeared around Sunny, and gathered into a wall, blocking the terrifying mana storms. Even though 1,000 ghosts were torn to shreds every second, even more ghosts were summoned and killed.

The devil’s whisper echoed in the spherical s.p.a.ce, as if it sounded right next to everyone’s ears. The whisper sounded rather excited. Spatial power was rippling, and the power of souls and magic were bursting out like boiling water.

A path to h.e.l.l had been established with the suffocatingly abundant mana and the soul power of the countless ghosts. What was sacrificed was everything here, to allure a devil lord to arrive in person. As long as everything here was shown to a greedy devil lord, they wouldn’t be able to resist the temptation.

Hiding in the cavern, Lin Yun looked at the scene, and his lips cramped.

That idiotic woman’s soul had been corrupted by the chaotic bloodlines. Her brain had already been damaged. Why did n.o.body believe him when he said that? Could there be another explanation for the ma.s.siveness of the mana crystal if this plane wasn’t a special beast?

She was summoning a devil lord here. Did she think that the devil lords were greedy and brainless fools? Even the greediest devil lord wouldn’t accept the summoning into the body of a powerful beast.

In particular, that gigantic mana crystal contained a horrifying amount of mana, and the soul in it was about to wake up. Did that woman think that the devils in h.e.l.l were her pets that could be summoned anytime?

Great. The monster was about to wake up. They would be in serious trouble…

“Xiuban, Reina, get prepared. The mana in this place is about to change. Let’s seize this opportunity to retreat from this place. That monster’s soul is about to wake up…”

Hardly had Lin Yun said that when he detected that the gales that were trying to pull them to the spherical s.p.a.ce were gone. However, there were still terrifying storms in the spherical s.p.a.ce that were tearing everything apart.

After the gales in the channels disappeared, Lin Yun immediately returned with his people, not caring what might happen in the spherical s.p.a.ce.

In only a couple of seconds, the soul waves from the inside of the gigantic mana crystal became more and more violent, and the monster’s soul was about to wake up completely. At this moment, Sunny had finished constructing the channel, and reached out to the devil lord that she had made offerings to many times. This time, she wasn’t summoning the devil lord’s power, but asking it to arrive—she was alluring the devil lord to arrive with everything here.

Inside the dark h.e.l.l, the request of summoning came from the void. A vortex appeared in the sky above a splendid devil castle. The devil lord who was hiding inside the castle raised its ominous eyes, and looked at everything on the other side through the dark vortex.

The devil lord who was ensconced on the throne had already been sneering when it didn’t see anything. After seeing the virtual pictures, the devil lord turned furious.

The horrifying storms of mana had gathered into illusionary curtains. However, it was still possible to see a gigantic mana crystal and a soul that was at least hundreds of meters tall through the curtains and interference. The unimaginable power of magic and soul that it contained seemed to be penetrating the virtual pictures.

Sunny’s alluring request came with her whisper. She described how powerful the sacrificed items were, and declared that they all belonged to the great devil lord as long as it came there and claimed them…

“What a wretched reptile. You’re trying to trick a great king again. All of those annoying reptiles should die. You think a great king is a brainless fool? You want to allure this great king to the most powerful part of a beast’s body? If you want to fool me, you must pay a price!”

The devil lord roared furiously, and extended its claw, ready to tear apart the enormous summoning vortex. However, it suddenly remembered something, and sneered in disdain. A torrent of ominous power was filled into the dark vortex. It then smashed the summoning vortex and shattered it.

“Stupid reptile who tries to set up this great king, pay a price with your blood and soul!”

On the other hand, there was nothing but madness left in Sunny’s eyes. Her summoning was accepted. A great amount of power was transmitted through the channel she constructed. Sunny implored the devil lord to arrive on her knees.

Above her head, a vortex was expanding. A few seconds later, power that looked like sticky ink gushed out of the channel, and disappeared into Sunny’s body. She was instantly strengthened. Ominous power spread out in the spherical s.p.a.ce like an explosion.

The madness in Sunny’s eyes faded away, replaced by infinite fear. The black and gray mist on her skin was gone, and a lot of tiny cracks appeared.

She had risen to level 4 of the Heaven Rank in only two seconds, and she was still advancing. She reached level 5 of the Heaven Rank in only a couple of seconds, but her body could not endure such great power anymore.

Her power was still on the rise, but her body was already decaying. Her soul was also corrupted by the power from h.e.l.l and riddled with holes.

“No… No… Great king, why? Why…”

Sunny stiffened. Feeling the greater and greater power inside her body, she was horrified. She had no idea why the greedy devil lord didn’t arrive when she summoned it with everything here as temptation, but rather wanted to kill her across s.p.a.ces…

It didn’t just want her to die, but wanted her soul to decay and perish. All traces of her would be completely annihilated in the power of h.e.l.l…

In only 10 seconds, Sunny already looked like a ghost that was wearing a green dry skin. Her soul was already rotten, but her body became even more powerful than before.

Bang…

With a deafening noise, Sunny’s body exploded and her soul perished. All her power was unleashed. The horrifying power of h.e.l.l was crazily corrupting and spreading.

At the same time, an enormous eye suddenly opened inside the ma.s.sive mana crystal, unleas.h.i.+ng 10 times more power of soul and magic. The power collided with the outbursting power from h.e.l.l. Then, a horrifying storm of destruction entered all the holes in the spherical s.p.a.ce.

The winds caused by the destructive power flew into the holes. The magic crystals in the channels were minced and melted in the storms too. Then, they were transformed into pure and powerful mana that joined the winds.

Instantly, all the ghosts and power from h.e.l.l in the spherical s.p.a.ce were annihilated. All the remaining things in the zigzagging channels were ripped apart and destroyed too.

In less than one minute, the winds had pa.s.sed all the underground channels. There was a swarm of giant insects that didn’t have enough time to dodge. When the winds pa.s.sed them, it was as if they’d undergone erosion for millions of years, and they fell apart, turned into dust, and moved along with the wind.

An insect that failed to hide in the wall in time was ripped apart immediately. Its body’s pieces had been shattered into molecules of dust before they hit the floor.

Inside one of the caverns, Lin Yun had set up an alchemy array. He dug a small pit inside the cavern, and sealed the pit with the alchemy array. He then let Reina add a layer of ice on the top of the pit. Then, everybody hid inside the pit.

The destructive magic storms pa.s.sed through the zigzagging channels, and filled all the underground caverns. When they entered the cavern that Lin Yun was in, all the magic crystals on the walls crumbled into pieces. The mana in them was released, and joined the torrents.

The layer of ice that Reina set up was quickly thawed by the winds. Its thickness was quickly reducing. Even the cavern had been expanded by the winds. The channels that had been narrow earlier were significantly broadened too.

The storms that erupted from the spherical s.p.a.ce were not weakened at all when they pa.s.sed the caverns and channels. Rather, they became more and more powerful as the mana that was condensed in the magic crystals that were exposed to the air had all been released and joined them.

Lin Yun and his team were prepared. They happened to evade when the magic storms were the most powerful as they erupted from the spherical s.p.a.ce, and when the magic storms were strengthened by the collapsing magic crystals. It wasn’t too hard for them to survive.

On the other hand, the people of the Th.o.r.n.y Crown weren’t so lucky. They were still searching for the right way to go further down when they encountered the destructive magic storms.

One of the warlocks, who had transplanted the bloodline of a beast that was good at telling the smell and directions, was picking the channel that they would take when he was suddenly hit by the storm that erupted from one of the channels. The destructive storms were even faster than magic waves, and couldn’t be detected in advance at all.

When the horrifying magic storm hit him, his natural s.h.i.+eld was like a piece of thin paper that couldn’t block it at all. It was torn apart immediately. His mana protection was activated at the same time. Unfortunately, his mana was like a burning torch, and the destructive magic storms were like unceasing cascades that could extinguish any torch.
