End of the Magic Era

Chapter 1150 - World Chapter

Chapter 1150 World Chapter

The longer they existed, the greater the size of the small planes, and the bigger they were, the harder it was to locate the special location.

This was due to the fact that the duration of their existence had nothing to do with their size.

Unless Lin Yun gave up looking for the Augment and directly returned to the Raging Flame Plane, he had to leave the small planes before their destruction.

But sometimes, a small plane he stepped in would already be on the brink of destruction and he would only have a couple seconds to look for the abnormality.

Lin Yun ended up leaving a small plane as it was destroyed four times.

Lin Yun’s mana was supported by the Natural Demiplane, so he wasn’t too worried about continuously travelling back and forth a few dozen times, but it was extremely taxing on his mind and it was at its limits, his soul was also exhausted.

As he travelled through a dozen small planes, Lin Yun had his Magic Array roused to work at full capacity whenever he came out of a Planar Path, all in order to find that crucial location as fast as possible.

After continuously travelling through planes, the light in Lin Yun’s eyes dimmed and his body emitted an exhausted aura. He had already forgotten how many planes he crossed. It had been just ten minutes, or maybe twenty minutes, but he could no longer remember how many Planar Paths he went through, he just kept going instinctively.

But Lin Yun suddenly froze as he saw the small plane before his eyes, because from the reaction of the Book of Death, the Augment was on this peculiar plane.

This was an entirely different small plane, the environment was like a dimly lit void. Lin Yun floated there and looked at the small mountains floating within this void. Flames transformed into rivers flowing within that void while steam transformed into dense fog that spread through certain areas, a river and glacier could even faintly be seen within the fog.

The gales transformed into hurricanes that roamed through the area. In the sky, rays of light and darkness twisted together, forming a kind of aurora continuously transforming.

He flew forward and landed on a small mountain, only to discover that it had a very low gravity. He then flew to another one, and was surprised to discover that gravity’s direction had been completely reversed, it was like his head and feet were upside down.

After landing on another small mountain, he looked around and noticed that the other small mountains were floating even faster.

After flying out of this hill, everything returned to normal. He landed on another small mountain and saw everything else being greatly slowed.

Lin Yun’s eyes faintly shone.

Time... The Law of Time was in chaos in this place, the flow of time was completely different there. The black and white radiance twisted into an aurora were like fluctuating night and day, but the laws were too chaotic, it was like a child had carelessly drawn a black and white graffiti in the void.

Following the sensation of the Book of Death, he flew to another small mountain, only to discover that the Augment was further and further away. The direction and sensation all passed through this chaotic space.

But Lin Yun grinned.

Everything was in chaos, time, space, earth, fire, water, wind, light, darkness... Everything was like that, but the formed plane wasn’t collapsing.

That chaos was actually forming a stable equilibrium, which shouldn’t exist. Such chaotic Laws and this disorderly plane simply shouldn’t exist, but it just appeared before him.

Lin Yun drank a potion to restore his spirit and when he felt better, he closed his eyes and gave up on perceiving his surroundings with mana, he only focused on the reaction of the Book of Death.

It was as if everything around him had turned dark and only a faint light was guiding him forward. Lin Yun slowly drifted as he followed that light.

Soon, Lin Yun reached a river of flames, but his body suddenly disappeared as if he was about to drift into the river of flames. A faint spatial fluctuation could be felt as Lin Yun’s body was already in the void ten kilometers away.

Lin Yun’s eyes were closed, he was drifting with no regards for his surroundings. He was like a space mage frequently using Teleportation as he kept travelling through the invisible chaotic passages within the space.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yun suddenly opened his eyes. He stood on a hundred-meter-big small land whose surrounding space had already distorted. The distorted space looked like a circular cylinder that had been twisted into a circle. Lin Yun could see himself when looking into any direction.

A revolving transparent sphere was floating in the center of this small land.

Lin Yun walked to the side of the sphere and could see himself inside the sphere, inside that chaotic world, chaotic space. That sphere was the core of this spherical world.

Without the guidance of the Book of Death, or it could be said that even with the guidance of the Book of Death, no one would be able to distinguish the interferences and walk to this place.

Anything seen by one’s eyes, or felt by one’s magic would influence their judgement. No matter how reasonable and understanding one was, those little wisps of doubt would make them unable to walk to this spot.

This place’s space and time, as well as all elements and laws, were revolving like sealed corridors. Only by following that connection could one enter the depths.

Looking at the sphere before him, Lin Yun couldn’t help grinning.

“Sure enough, it was that thing. The most troublesome Augment to obtain among the Book of Death’s Augments, the World Chapter!”

In the future, Bane, the holder of the Book of Death, spent no less than three hundred years between discovering the World Chapter and getting a hold of it!

And the most important reason behind that was that the World Chapter’s projected plane, laws, elements, space and time were all incomparably chaotic. It was like circles piled on top of circles forming an incomparably huge ball of strings. It was perpetually chaotic and ever changing, the depths of this place simply couldn’t be entered.

In the end, Bane, that powerhouse surpassing the Heaven Rank, noticed something wrong with that space with a single glance.

But he couldn’t get closer. Even when he ultimately destroyed that projected plane, he still couldn’t do anything. That projected plane was a projection of the World Chapter, it would be reborn after being destroyed. It wouldn’t change even if it was destroyed ten thousand times.

Ultimately, Bane tested all methods before discovering that he only needed to simply close his eyes and seal his senses, as well as his instinctive mana perception, before following the Book of Death’s guidance.

After all, mana was something mages trusted the most, it was a lot more important than their eyes. All mages would instinctively believe their mana perception if there was a conflict between the feelings of their eyes and their mana.

But this habit was a huge obstruction in this place.

Lin Yun had seen the records in the decaying library, this was something that Bane had written down since it had troubled him for three centuries.

Lin Yun knew all about the process.

While moving from plane to plane, Lin Yun guessed that the Book of Death was reacting to the World Chapter.

Only the World Chapter could be connected to so many small planes, because those small planes continuously forming and being destroyed drew their power from the World Chapter.

Every major plane was connected to many smaller planes. Those smaller planes with imperfect laws were always being born and the majority of them would end up being destroyed.

But a place where so many small planes were constantly being formed and destroyed was abnormal by itself.

His guess turned into reality, it was indeed the World Chapter. Strictly speaking, that thing was different from the other Augments of the Book of Death.

Most of the other Augments needed to be attached to the Book of Death to display their power, but the World Chapter was different.

The World Chapter could take the shape of a world, and if a mage used the World Chapter to develop a World, the power of that world would be even more powerful than a Demiplane.

Because the world formed by the World Chapter had its own Law system. It was comparable to a Natural Demiplane. It had the potential to develop into a true world, not like the Demiplanes used by mages to establish their foundation.

In those years, Bane chose to spend three hundred years to find a way to obtain the World Chapter because of this. A complete independent world had much more meaning than transcending the Heaven realm.

The simplest reason was that if the world developed into a complete independent world before Noscent’s destruction, then the mage controlling it wouldn’t be implicated by Noscent’s destruction.

Bane’s notes faintly alluded to that. Unfortunately, he hadn’t had the time to develop the world of the World Chapter to its peak. He spent a very long time looking for a Mana Vine and experimented with methods to nurture Mana Vine Seeds for a very long time.

Ultimately, Bane disappeared without a trace and these things were left behind.

Holding onto the World Chapter, Lin Yun didn’t immediately merge it with the Book of Death, because there wasn’t much meaning in having it merge with the Book of Death.

There also wasn’t much meaning in evolving the World Chapter’s world on its own.

Because he already had a Natural Demiplane who had been developed quite well. In a way, a Natural Demiplane was somewhat better than the World Chapter’s world.

He didn’t have the energy and resources to develop another world, the Natural Demiplane was already his limit, and strictly speaking, running the Natural Demiplane was very difficult.

Lin Yun appeared in the Natural Demiplane while holding onto the World Chapter.

Ever since he obtained the God Fire Ember and used it as the Natural Demiplane’s sun, the laws of the Natural Demiplane seemed to have been greatly supplemented and some simple lifeforms were already nurtured.

Lin Yun had appeared in the center of the Natural Demiplane and threw the World Chapter while chanting a strange and short incantation.

In an instant, that calmly revolving World Chapter exploded and transparent ripples spread out, enveloping the entire Natural Demiplane.

Dense law fluctuations were revealed in front of Lin Yun. The Natural Demiplane’s space became even more stable and the earth rapidly expanded as the world shook

But a heavy aura filled the air as the land of the Natural Demiplane expanded, and although the earth kept expanding, it didn’t shake. It was because the earth was becoming thicker and heavier. The huge fluctuations couldn’t shake the earth.

Around the earth, surging sea waves appeared out of nowhere and the ocean expanded a lot faster then the earth.

The sky rose and the spatial barrier was strengthened. Those thick Mana Vines also rose up from the earth like snakes and pierced into the sky, their tips disappearing. In the void, the Mana Vines devoured chaotic energies and smoothly sprinkled mana over the Natural Demiplane.

The Mana Vines already formed a community, thick Mana Vines formed an emerald green curtain at the edge of the Demiplane, and the liquid-condensed mana transformed into a waterfall that fell over the horizon.

The thick liquid mana impacted the earth, but the small Mana Pond didn’t grow bigger, it instead slowly shrunk as a huge amount of mana was absorbed by the Demiplane for its expansion.

By the time the Demiplane stopped expanding, the liquid mana waterfall no longer existed and the pond below kept its size.

The God Fire Ember, being used as a sun, was shining light upon this world and seemed to have truly become a huge fireball hanging in the sky.

The God Fire Ember’s orbit also happened to change, it was no longer following a circle pattern in the sky, but rather, it acted just like a sun and rose from the east to set in the west.

As the God Fire Ember set in the west, the Demiplane started sinking into a dusky night. Starlight coming from an unknown location fell down on the Natural Demiplane and an indescribable aura flooded the Natura Demiplane. At that moment, it felt as if the Natural Demiplane had really become a complete world.

Sunset and sunrise, low tides and high tides...

The World Chapter’s world hadn’t transformed into a world, it instead merged with the Natural Demiplane and strengthened it.

Although the Natural Demiplane was naturally born, it also had all kinds of natural flaws. As for the World Chapter’s world, it was the most complete, but wasn’t natural. That was its biggest flaw.

After both sides merged together, a feeling of perfection flooded Lin Yun’s mind. His entire body’s mana sharply increased and the power of the Laws revolved around Lin Yun. It was like a painting was displayed in front of Lin Yun, and he didn’t need to rack his brains to understand it.

His mana started rapidly increasing and so did his comprehension of laws. After ten seconds, his improvements came to a halt

Because he had already reached the limits of the Archmage realm. Without completing the Extraordinary Transformation, his mana, rank, and Law Power wouldn’t increase

The Peak of the Archmage realm. Moreover, it seemed that he might be able to step into the Heaven Rank at any time.

Lin Yun closed his eyes and remained floating there. On the Demiplane’s earth, the desperate-looking laboring mages who were building a temple and buildings raised their heads.

Dylas was shocked. He had entered the Demiplane a while ago, he wouldn’t be considered smart if he hadn’t noticed anything.

As long as one wasn’t an idiot, they would know that this definitely wasn’t a Demiplane inherited from a fallen Heaven Rank powerhouse.

As he saw the Demiplane expanding, with sunset and sunrise, clouds and rain, Dylas thoroughly gave up on any thought of escape. He lowered his head and led the shadow mages to keep working hard on a job as promising as construction.

And on the other side, the mages of the Quicksand Tower were truly despairing.

Just now, the Demiplane’s rivers and the small sea had been sorted out, they even changed the landscape and created tributaries according to the Demiplane’s topography.

But now, the Demiplane’s surface area increased by four to five times, the rivers still had to be sorted out.

This would take a lot more time, and at this rate, they might never be able to sort out the rivers and seabed

Ignoring these labouring guys, Lin Yun closed his eyes and floated in the Demiplane. He sensed his body and burst forth with power.

He had already reached the Peak of the Archmage realm, and it was the perfect peak!

He spat out a mysterious rune and felt that with the World Chapter merging into the Demiplane, the previous spatial coordinates of the Raging Flame Plane’s Holy Mountain were now using the Demiplane as a reference point.

After sneering, Lin Yun spat out three runes and a spatial tear appeared in front of him.

...

On the other side, the battle at the Holy Mountain was already over, but the mood was very strange.

Cross was sneering with his arms crossed and Clombton was frowning while facing him. Birbo, whose complexion was pale and whose skin was full of crack, as well as a one-armed Steer, were standing between them.

Dubois was grinning joyfully while Slythrin wordlessly handed a thick potion to Birbo.

On the side, Morgan and Raphael were infuriated, Morgan was even grinding his teeth, but he couldn’t say anything, he could only glare.

As for the Beastmen, they were either grinning or sneering while enjoying the show. The scene and the atmosphere was very strange.

“Clombton, Temporal Recall isn’t omnipotent. This place has been washed over by a large amount of Extraordinary Power, you can’t look at a complete scene.

“And just now, we only saw the unfortunate Mafa Merlin being pushed into a small plane by that Demon Overlord. Moreover, he still attacked others while on the verge of death.

“The act of attacking an ally is punishable by death. Fortunately, he has already died or we would have had to kill him again!”

Clombton frowned as he looked at the seriously injured Birbo and Steer.

Just now, he clearly saw Mafa Merlin being restricted by a spell through Temporal Recall, as well as the heavy gravity pressure.

During that split second of binding, the slight change in the shadows must have been caused by Birbo, as for Mafa Merlin’s shield being deformed, it should have been due to the gravity. The gravity had greatly increased with three meters.
