After sitting cross-legged on the Great Wizard Altar, Yang Ling waved his hands and layered on a heavy Illusion Formation and heavy Restriction. As a precaution, he summoned all the various Magical Beasts like the Horned Bee Beasts, Spiders, and Vampire Bats, covering a large, dense area.
“Rodriguez, you must block the other party from approaching me at all costs!” Yang Ling commanded gravely, seeing that Fabris had seen past the layers of Illusion Formations and was getting closer in pursuit.
The soul is Fabris’ only weak point. If he wanted to be able to attack his soul, he needed to first block, and then ensnare his Divine Knowledge, and then completely trap him within the Restriction. But in order to do that, he must block his attacks, to buy some time for him to cast the extremely powerful Wizard Spell.
Obscure the Sky, or...
There were numerous Wizard Spells recorded on the Stele, many of them gave the ability to obscure an enemy’s Wizard Power. The more powerful the spell, the more Wizard Power and Mental Energy needed to cast the spell. After hesitating for a while, Yang Ling swallowed a handful of Magical Beast Blood Orbs and decisively cast the immensely powerful Changing Stars Positions’ spell.
In ancient times, the primitive land was full of barren hills and turbulent waters. Many powerful enemies surrounded the tribes, including the numerous evil demons and beasts that were always looking covetously. In order to hide the location of the tribes or set an ambush to kill off the enemies, the Soul Wizards would often cast the powerful Changing Stars Positions spell to change the surrounding environment forcibly, to shield themselves from the powerful Divine Knowledge of their enemies.
Relying on the Great Wizard Altar, Yang Ling’s speed of casting the spell got faster and faster, his hands continually changing positions to make various signals. Very quickly, clouds of hidden energy pulses penetrated the air. The sky got darker and darker as if surrounded by a thick, dark cloud. A big fog appeared suddenly, getting thicker and thicker...
At all costs!
Looking at the sudden change in weather, and seeing Fabris who was charging with great, big strides, the Corpse Wizard King nodded his head vigorously, and commanded the various Magical Beast Kings, like the Spider King and Evil Eye Tyrant to lead their respective underlings to work together in battle. Thereafter, he started chanting loudly, summoning large hordes of the Undead like Zombies and Skeletons, commanding the great army to surround Fabris completely.
Even though he did not understand the spell Yang Ling was casting, he instinctively felt an immense amount of energy gathering. Strange changes were happening on heaven and earth. Even Elder Brent, at the forefront of the Divine Level Experts, was not a match for Fabris. In this case, if they wanted to triumph against the terrifying Fabris, they could now only pin their hopes on the mysterious spell of Yang Ling.
Fabris was very strong and powerful. Since they could not take him on one to one, then he would use the Magical Beasts Army and Undead Army to overwhelm and drown him. If a hundred would not cut it, then there would be a thousand, ten thousand...Even if he were unable to kill off the other party, he could at least buy Yang Ling enough time.
Under the Corpse Wizard King’s command, the Undead Army and Magical Beasts Army launched a suicidal attack, ferociously attacking the powerful Fabris. The Self Destructing Bats were the first in line, flying into battle in a swarm, covering the sky. The dull sounds of explosions came without stopping. The Red-haired Tarantulas all burrowed underground, launching waves of ground spurs, every wave higher than the next. The Horned Bee Beasts flew low in the sky, releasing poison stingers one after another, while the Zombies and Skeletons fearlessly surrounded Fabris and surged forward, like flesh shields, unafraid of death, insistently blocking Fabris’ path.
“Hmph, you’re looking to die!” Faced with being completely surrounded by the Magical Beasts Army and the Undead Army, Fabris’ expression did not change. He coldly snorted, and within the area of his Knife Domain, sharp silver Knife Aristas appeared in bursts all over the place. Anyone who blindly charged in, no matter Zombie or Horned Bee Beast, were all sliced into pieces in an instant, as if moths to a flame, on a trip of no return.
“Corpse Explosion, explode for me, explode, explode!”
The Corpse Wizard King did not seem to care for the death of low-level Magical Beasts Army and the Undead Army. Not only did he increase the power behind their attacks, he even used their bodies to cast spells like the Corpse Explosion and Poison Explosion. Under his command, people like the Dark Dragon King and the Shadow Wizard Winnink, who had recovered part of their powers, snuck into the Magical Beast Army to take part in the sneak attacks, attacking and retreating repeatedly, trying their best to hinder Fabris’ progress forward.
Compared to the Magical Beasts like the Dark Dragon King and the Purple Rat Little Ice, the Thousand-faced Mink made full use of its gifted abilities and displayed them to perfection!
With the Group Illusion Spell, the small fellow used the various Magical Beasts as originals, and made large numbers of copies, commanding them to charge towards Fabris, to their deaths. Real and fake, all of them were trying their best to exhaust the other party’s Divine Power, stopping the other party in his tracks, preventing him from moving forward.
“Hmph, damn it, how many Magical Beasts does this fellow have exactly?”
Looking at the swarms and swarms of densely packed Magical Beasts and Undead that came in continuous waves without stopping, Fabris frowned in frustration. The nearer he got to the Great Wizard Altar, the more complicated the Ancient Spell Formations became. He could only vaguely get a sense of the direction Yang Ling was in. If he got careless, he would get bewitched by various illusions. Even if his Divine Knowledge was stronger than the others’, he did not dare to charge forward as he had done previously. What was worse was that there were too many low flying Horned Bee Beasts and Self Destructing Bats to count. The Magical Beasts like Evil Eyes and Spiders on the ground were even more troublesome to deal with. And with the coordinated efforts by the Undead Army, his speed of progress forward was severely impeded.
If there was no Restriction, he could still ignore these Magical Beasts blocking the way and directly fly over. If he had time, he would not mind slicing these despicable fellows into pieces, one by one. Unfortunately, the situation seemed to be turning against him. The Magical Beasts and Undead swarming towards him were increasing in number, yet the time he had was getting less and less.
As a Divine Level Expert, he was sensitive to the changes in his surrounding environment. Previously within the Restriction, he could clearly sense all movements within a hundred-mile radius, and see through all the illusions blocking his way. But, as time went by, and as he got nearer to the Great Wizard Altar where Yang Ling was, he found that his sensing radius was rapidly and greatly reduced. It was reduced to a few dozen paces, even a few paces away. A few times, he had walked a great distance, only to realize that he had been walking on the spot all along!
Furthermore, he did not know since when a vague, strange fragrance started permeating the air. When he realized that something was wrong, it was too late. Blisters appeared all over the skin on his body, itchy and painful. When he scratched and broke the blisters, puss-filled blood came out. Thereafter, his muscles started rotting. The situation got worse and worse. It was obvious he had gotten seriously poisoned when he got careless.
Under cover of the Magical Beasts Army, Alice made use of the Restriction to walk around soundlessly, unnoticed. She then planted fatal poisons around the Great Wizard Altar. This type of fatal poison was a mix of various poisons like the Corpse Rotting Water and Rosemary. Without the antidote, an ordinary person would not be able to take more than five steps if one accidentally got a drop of it on his skin. Even a giant dragon would not be able to escape death if it accidentally got a drop of it on itself. It was the most terrifying masterpiece of all the killer viruses. Fabris might be powerful, but he was not impervious to all poisons.
Wave after wave of Magical Beasts and the Undead, who were not afraid of death like flesh shields, the Restriction that he increasingly could not see through and on top of that, the terrifying severe poison...
Very quickly, Fabris discovered that he had been drawn into a difficult situation. Where he could just now vaguely sense the direction and position of where Yang Ling was, in an instant, he had completely lost track of his whereabouts. Raising his eyes skyward, all he could see were ancient trees that were so tall that the treetops touched the clouds as if he had accidentally stepped into an ancient forest that stretched for tens of thousands of miles.
What was even more terrifying was that not only did his Divine Knowledge get greatly suppressed, the area his Domain covered, grew smaller and smaller. His body grew heavier and heavier, and his speed got slower and slower. Even if he stacked the Energy Domain on top of the foundations of his Knife Domain, there was not much improvement. It was as if he had fallen into a weird swamp.
“This is the true power of the Ancient Spell Formation?”
After activating the Knife Arista to kill the hordes of Magical Beasts and Undead charging towards him, Fabris shook his head bitterly. He did not expect to get careless and fall into the other party’s trap. According to ancient records, a top-level Ancient Spell Formation could even trap and kill Divine Level Experts at the Master Divine level. Its power was not small. If he himself had accidentally stepped into a top-level Ancient Spell Formation, then what would happen?
Success!
As the circumstances turned unfavorable for Fabris and his expression grew grave, Yang Ling, sitting cross-legged on the Great Wizard Altar, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. With the last hand signal, he successfully cast the Star Positions Changing Spell. After that, looking at Fabris, who was wandering aimlessly within the Restriction like a fly, Yang Ling smiled coldly.
No matter how strong you were, how powerful you were, as long as you walked into his Restriction, even if you did not die, you would lose a layer of skin!
After shielding Fabris’ Divine Knowledge, and trapping him within the Imprisonment Space, things had just truly begun. After swallowing large amounts of Magical Beast Blood Orbs and the Water of the Spring of Life to replenish the exhausted Wizard Power and Mental Energy, Yang Ling stacked on layer after layer of Illusion Formation and Gravity Restriction on the original foundation, to greatly reduce Fabris speed and reaction time, and to cut off all sensation from the outside world. Finally, he used the last bit of Wizard Power and Mental Energy left to set a Burning Fire Restriction, summoning the Fire Elf King and all his underlings.
Even though he did not stay a long time at the second level of the Underground Tomb, he had nevertheless successfully mastered the mystery behind the Burning Fire Restriction. The theory behind it was not complicated. He only had to make use of the Five Elements Restriction to draw out the Fire Element Magic from within a radius of a few hundred miles and form it into a huge Restriction. The key was the rare Natural Spirit Fire
Even if an ordinary person knew how to set up the Burning Fire Restriction, its power would be greatly discounted, to about one percent, or even one-tenth of a percent. But it was different for Yang Ling. He had kept the Natural Spirit Fire away into the Wizard Pagoda’s Space so that he could set up an immensely powerful Burning Fire Restriction at any time. After taming the Fire Elf King and his underlings, it was like adding wings to a tiger.
After living in the Wizard Pagoda’s Space for a while, not only did the Fire Elves completely recover, they had even shown steady growth in power, full of Fire Element Magical Power. Within the area of the Burning Fire Restriction, their attack ability increased to an astonishing level, able to release flames that blanketed the sky and earth with a raise of an arm or leg. Not to mention trees, even rocks were scorched till they turned red, even turning to ashes in an instant.
“Barton, I’ll leave this to you. Give our guest from afar a proper welcome!” Looking at Fabris, who had instinctively felt that something was not right and was dashing all around in a panic but was still unable to escape from the Restriction, Yang Ling smiled coldly.
“Sir, I understand!” Looking at the cold smile on Yang Ling’s face, Barton naturally understood what to do next — leaving with big strides to carry out the instruction.
Very quickly, purple flames that blanketed the sky and earth appeared within the Restriction, and the scorching temperatures came rushing forwards. If one accidentally breathed in the heatwave, one would instantly feel his throat get dry and hot. It was even worse than falling into the mouth of a volcano. If the people outside the Burning Fire Restriction already felt so bad, one could only imagine the agony Fabris, who was inside the Restriction, must be in!
