Chapter 1070 - Black Giant
Chapter 1070: Black Giant
However, the junior in his eyes actually displayed power that was not inferior to Elder Zumar’s. In fact, he even surpassed him. Although it was a good thing for the current situation, it still put Elder Zumar in a complex mood. Since Lin Li was giving them aid, the stronger he was, the better. However, Lin Li was also his potential enemy, and thus it was definitely not a good thing.
At this moment, Lin Li, who was in the sky, had already condensed the power of the entire Domain World in the gemstone at the top of the Helios’ Scepter, causing the light of the gemstone to engulf his body. A sun appeared in the dark sky.
In fact, it was just a matter of a split second before the huge dragon claw that stretched out from the darkness had already grabbed Lin Li. Almost at the same time, the shining Solar Sphere which resembled the sun constricted, and seemed to have been oppressed by the sun. However, in an instant, a huge sword of radiant light was thrust out from the giant sword with a menacing momentum as if it could cut the sky, and grabbed the center of the dragon’s claw.
BOOM!
The sound of a massive explosion filled the air, and the entire world seemed to tremble in the roar. The two massive forces generated shock waves during a head-on collision before spreading out rapidly in all directions, causing ripples to form that could be seen with the naked eye in space as if a boulder had been tossed onto the calm surface of the lake.
The battlefield in the surroundings was also affected by the impact of the shock wave, and the 10-odd wyrm ghosts in the surroundings were shattered and turned into ashes by the horrifying impact. Although there was a considerable distance between them, they still found it hard to calm down. Those that were weaker even almost fainted.
That was the power of a true Sanctuary powerhouse! Everyone was astonished. Even though they had already thought of Lin Li’s strength as the most powerful they could imagine, they realized that their imagination was still far from enough as the power had already exceeded their imagination.
Elvis and others were certain that even though they’d stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, they would definitely be destroyed in an instant if they were in the middle of the impact. Their souls might be destroyed too. In the past, they respected and had scruples about Lin Li, but now they were filled with fear towards him.
They knew very well in their hearts that that kind of terrifying power was definitely not something they could fight against. If Lin Li wanted to wipe their forces out, he probably could do so with the lift of a finger.
At this moment, they were in huge fear for their forces and their previous schemes. They finally knew that the Tower of Dusk just couldn’t be bothered to go against them, and did not refrain from doing so because they were scared. With such a powerful strength, the young president of the Tower of Dusk would perhaps not be afraid of even the famous Ashen Warlock at all.
Indeed, the pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses like Elvis and the others could not understand what the Sanctuary-realm meant, but they knew how powerful it was, and that they could never resist it. At this moment, the shadow of the Ashen Warlock in their hearts seemed to have gradually been replaced by Lin Li.
At this moment, Elder Zumar was on Cage Island, but he had been watching the battle above his head with astonishment and fright. The power Lin Li displayed made him forget his mission as he couldn’t help but continuously think about the powerful figure that led the resistance in the war at the end of the Dark Age.
Although Elder Zumar had always been very confident in his own strength, his confidence had wavered, and he couldn’t help but tremble from within his soul. In particular, he was flabbergasted when he thought about Lin Li’s age. How talented must he be to be able to have such terrifying power at this age!?
Previously, Elder Zumar thought that only the Ashen Warlock who was of an unknown origin was qualified to be his opponent in the entire Breezy Plains. However, Elder Zumar had to admit that the young Sanctuary powerhouse before him was probably not that easy to deal with. It seemed that the Gilded Kingdom’s strategy against the Breezy Plains had to be tweaked.
Lin Li’s attack made everyone on the battlefield develop all sorts of thoughts. However, at this moment, Lin Li didn’t even consider what others were thinking. Hence, he also truly felt the power of Antora through the collision.
Legend had it that during the prehistoric times, the Death Shadow Antora of the powerful Obsidian Wyrm race was also known as the finest descendant of Azardas, the Dragon of Destruction. Now, it seemed that it really wasn’t an exaggeration. Through the tough collision, Lin Li could clearly feel the massive power of the other party, and he could imagine how terrifying Antora had been during his prime.
The World Sword that Lin Li had condensed using the Domain World and the black dragon’s claw collided vigorously, but the victory was indistinguishable. Although the black wyrm’s claw had been shattered by the powerful World Sword, the World Sword also began to shatter, and all its Laws disintegrated under the impact of the tremendous power.
Of course, Lin Li was already mentally prepared for this outcome, and there wasn’t a single trace of surprise on his face. Just as the World Sword shattered, the light of mana erupted from the Helios’ Scepter in his hand, and as the World Sword disappeared from the Domain World, it once again enveloped the surrounding space.
However, compared to Lin Li, Antora who had turned into the world of darkness immediately reacted more vigorously. Only the instincts of Antora were left. Perhaps he didn’t even know that he was no longer the Death Shadow that the Titans feared. Hence, having his own attack being broken was simply an intolerable insult to his dignity.
Hence, just as Lin Li reopened his Domain World, a furious roar sounded in the sky, and it seemed to belong on a mental level. Immediately afterwards, more than 10 giants which were as tall as mountain peaks charged towards Lin Li.
The black giants did not have any faces at all, and they seemed just like shadows of giants. However, each black giant’s body emitted powerful power fluctuations that were even more powerful than those of Elvis and other pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses. They were the Titans that had been swallowed by Antora’s world of darkness and turned into Antora’s darkness puppets.
Like a silhouette, the black giants were wielding giant spears that resembled Titan Dragon Spears, but they were also pitch-dark. In the blink of an eye, they dashed towards Lin Li and, without employing any technique at all, the 10-odd black giants smashed their giant spears into Lin Li’s Domain World with brute force.
If it had happened during Antora’s heyday, those black giants would have been at least level-26 or level-27, and Lin Li would be surrounded by more than 10 level-26 or level-27 Sanctuary powerhouses. Even if he had received pointers from Geresco, he would probably have ended up being defeated.
However, Antora was no longer what it used to be, and the strength of these black giants had already declined greatly. The difference between these black giants and Lin Li was now a realm, which was not something that numbers could make up for. Lin Li opened his Domain World, allowing the dozen black giants to attack it, but he didn’t waver at all.
However, unlike the composed Lin Li, Elder Zumar and other people outside the battlefield could no longer stay calm. They were all extremely worried. Be it Elder Zumar or Elvis and the others, they all knew that Lin Li’s victory or defeat would be the key to this battle. If Lin Li failed, they would face trouble too.
The thing that made them increasingly worried was that Lin Li, who was surrounded by a dozen black giants, seemed somewhat powerless even though he was counterattacking with magic spells too. His Domain World looked like it could be smashed by the black giants at any moment.
Although they were nervous and anxious, they were not surprised by the situation at all. They could even sense the massive power of the black giants; hence, deep down, they didn’t think that Lin Li could kill those black giants easily.
Faced with such a situation, be it Elder Zumar who led the Gilded Kingdom’s team or the team led by the pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses like Elvis, they all immediately stepped up their respective attacks. In their hearts, they also just hoped that Lin Li could sustain himself for longer under the siege, and give the others a chance to solve the issue.
With those thoughts, Elder Zumar constantly urged the mages under him to speed up and strive to get the Alchemy Array running smoothly as soon as possible. As long as the Alchemy Array could run smoothly, the seal of Cage Island would also be reinforced quickly. By then, given Elder Zumar’s abilities, he would have high chances of defeating Antora if he joined forces with Lin Li.
As for Elvis and others, they also wanted to eliminate their respective enemies as soon as possible. As long as they could attain their goal, the crisis on the battlefield would also be greatly alleviated. Unfortunately, not all wishes would come true. After all, the strength of Elvis and the others was limited, and it wouldn’t be easy for them to get rid of the enemy quickly. Although they had already played their trump cards, they could only maintain a stalemate with the enemy, which was dangerous.
Lin Li’s situation in the sky seemed to be exactly like what they were worried would happen. He seemed to be in a huge danger under the siege of a dozen black giants. Besides, Antora, who was hidden in the darkness, did not stop bombarding Lin Li with all sorts of spells like Darkness Thunderbolt, Darkness Flames, and Darkness Snow unrestrainedly. In short, everything was dominated by the Laws of Darkness, but had the characteristics of many other types of magic spells. They constantly blasted at Lin Li’s Domain World that was seemingly shaky.
Under such a crazy siege, Lin Li’s Domain World seemed to be facing its end as the sky and earth were torn open, with a huge hole in them, and it seemed as if the entire Domain World might collapse at any moment. However, even in such a dangerous situation, Lin Li did not show any panic at all, and the Domain World, which could collapse at any time, was only on the verge of collapsing under his full support.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, Lin Li’s Domain World would definitely collapse with a little more effort from the enemy, but when Antora strengthened his attack again, Lin Li’s Domain World miraculously held up again. It was simply torturous for the bystanders, and probably even more intolerable for Antora.
Lin Li suddenly extended his arm, but instead of casting magic to counterattack the black giants or repair his Domain World with all his might, he retracted all six pieces of the debris of the stars that he had released, and they immediately flew into his Domain World. In just an instant, all the damage in his Domain World was repaired, making it good as new. It was as if the apocalyptic scene had just been an illusion.
Of course, as the six pieces of the debris of the stars were put away, Elvis and the others, who had lost the help of the debris of the stars, were immediately put in a very dangerous situation. From their point of view, it was obvious that Lin Li withdrew the six pieces of the debris of the stars because the Domain World couldn’t support them anymore. Hence, they couldn’t complain about anything, and had no choice but to squeeze out every ounce of mana and fight the dragon ghosts with their lives.
Is he going to defend himself and escape? Elder Zumar thought to himself as he noticed the change on the battlefield. Angered by the thought, he also felt that it was justified. Sanctuary powerhouses had an extremely long lifespan, and their ultimate goal was to enter the realm of the gods, so they naturally had to pay more attention to their lives. In the eyes of Sanctuary powerhouses, ordinary people were insignificant nobodies. Even if the Breezy Plains was destroyed, the Sanctuary powerhouses wouldn’t take it to heart.
In fact, if not for the fact that he had a special mission, Elder Zumar wouldn’t have gone there and put his life at risk. He couldn’t possibly risk his life and future as a Sanctuary powerhouse for the sake of the safety of the Breezy Plains!
