Chapter 1420: Moving On

But for the Leopard Tail Worms, the length of the time didn’t matter at all. They didn’t care about wasting time. In the Kingdom of Nightmares, they were immortal. They would never be completely killed unless their souls were destroyed.
This was just one of the King of Nightmares’ dreams and memories from the age of gods. It was just played repeatedly.
The dream of a god could easily last hundreds of years. Lin Yun never thought that he would be so unlucky as to encounter the beginning of a new cycle.
The visitors who came earlier didn’t encounter this, but when he arrived, it was the beginning of the battle. He didn’t think he should be so unlucky.
Lin Yun thought for a moment, and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t figure out what it was. He could only blame it on bad luck, or maybe the previous outsiders had caused special changes in the King of Nightmares’ dream.
Knowing that he had no time to waste, Lin Yun flew towards the depths of the inland sea. There was still a long time to go until the sea was shattered in the battle. The fight had just started, so it was his best opportunity. When the clash became too fierce, then it would be impossible for him to pass.
The fat kid trembled with fear, and wanted to run off. But in this place, he would’ve been torn into shreds without Lin Yun’s protection or his tail. He didn’t dare to jump off Lin Yun’s shoulder, which would surely kill him, at all.
If he followed Lin Yun, maybe he would be able to live a while longer…
Lin Yun moved inwardly for 1,000 kilometers, and the elements became more and more chaotic. Those elements were as violent as the inside of an elemental storm. They were even expanding, with their coverage rising from 100 square kilometers to 600.
The more massive an elemental storm was, the more powerful it would be. In this place, other level-7 Heaven Rank experts would be exhausted in 10 seconds, and killed in half an hour at most.
That was why elemental storms were hard to resist. They contained the purest elemental power. There were no spells, no curses, and no fancy tricks at all. Whoever couldn’t endure it would be torn to shreds. It was just a direct competition of magic power.
There was infinite power in an elemental storm. However strong a mage was, his mana would be exhausted sooner or later, and when it was exhausted, he would be ripped apart.
It wouldn’t matter at all whether the mage was in level 7 of the Heaven Rank or level 9.
The only people who could emerge unscathed from the most powerful elemental storms were the Elemental Spirit Kings, who contained the purest elemental power that prevented them from getting hurt.
They were the only exceptions. The others would have to weather elemental storms on their own.
There was a reason why Elemental Embodiment would be known as the most powerful spell that all mages had to learn in the future. When one fully grasped Fire Element Embodiment, a normal spell, it might evolve into an extreme spell that was the Fire Elemental Spirit Embodiment.
When one fully grasped the embodiments of all the four elements, and laid a foundation of laws with the four elements, one would be able to use the Elemental Spirit King Embodiment.
That was the most powerful embodiment spell. Many special materials were only available in the enormous elemental storms in the void. To enter those elemental storms, one had to know how to use the Elemental Spirit King Embodiment first.
When Lin Yun used the Elemental Spirit King Embodiment, even though it was exhausting, his mana wouldn’t be drained in three seconds as what happened to him in the beginning. He was able to survive by replenishing his mana once every 10 minutes.
He flew onward for more than 1,000 kilometers, and found himself in an area that could almost compare to a chaotic elemental storm. There was no distinction between up and down. The gravity was twisted. It was too big in some places and slanted elsewhere. He would’ve lost his direction if the gravity here weren’t multiple times greater than that in Noscent.
“Sir, I’m begging you, please don’t go any further. We’ll die. We’ll truly die. The chief said certain places are forbidden, and whoever goes there will die, even including himself. We’ll really die if we get any closer…” the fat kid screamed loudly. His round face had been deformed because of fear.
Lin Yun frowned and slapped the fat kid, twisting his body again. After Lin Yun moved his hand back, his body was restored, and he screamed again.
“Shut up. If you keep screaming, you may catch their attention and get both of us killed.”
Lin Yun was quite solemn. He even regretted bringing this fat kid. Admittedly, the fat kid was a local, and knew many things well, but he was too much of a coward. He was just like a kid who had never left home. He knew a lot of things, but hadn’t experienced any of them.
He was almost killed on his very first trip, and even his tail was cut off. He was so terrified that he realized that the world out there wasn’t the same as it was in the stories.
Lin Yun angrily yelled at the fat kid, and finally calmed him down. The fat kid was not stupid. He knew that he might have a chance to survive if he kept quiet, and that if he continued shrieking, he might catch the attention of the horrifying experts, who could easily kill them with the aftermath of their battle.
The Leopard Tail Worms were capable of mimicking their opponents’ levels in the Kingdom of Nightmares, but their ability had limits. When they faced a level-49 expert, they could turn into level-50, but that was just a level. They wouldn’t really have the greatest abilities that corresponded with that level.
Take the two experts who were fighting in the center of the sea for example. Even a Leopard Tail Worm King would be killed by them. They were too strong to be dealt with by any special abilities.
Lin Yun continued moving forward. The battle’s aftermath became more and more powerful. Lin Yun could tell that the Magic Array had a lot of weird changes too.
The Magic Array would suddenly become 10 times more powerful, gaining abilities that far exceeded Lin Yun’s current level. The Magic Array was itself a combination of countless parts as a special magic conducting rune. It was a magic tool in a way.
Most magic conducting runes, such as Hand of Time and Spring of Mana, were independent, and only had one ability, but the Magic Array was different. It was more like a combination of magic runes that could assemble into various abilities. It boasted the most powerful computational ability.
These days, the Magic Array would suddenly become 10 times more powerful, which lasted longer and longer. At the beginning, the empowerment only appeared briefly, but then it could last a couple of seconds. Lin Yun was not sure what was going on.
No similar things had ever been recorded. There was not even anything that was remotely related…
Lin Yun stopped and hesitated for a moment. This situation was not within his control. It was extremely weird. The Magic Array was his greatest reliance. If anything was wrong with that, then it would be troublesome.
Through his calculation, he found that it was possible to cross the battlefield through the edge despite the intensifying battle waves. At the very least, he wouldn’t deviate from the destined path. In another dozen minutes, the battle waves would cover the path, and make it impossible for him to cross.
Gritting his teeth, Lin Yun flew onward, and swallowed a bottle of mana water every couple of minutes during the flight. Here, the elements were even more violent. They came within 10 meters of him even though he was using the Elemental Spirit King Embodiment.
But those elements were negligible as the elements couldn’t hurt him at all no matter how violent they were as long as they were pure. Still, as he approached the battlefield, there were a lot more powers in the blast, and they were not pure elements.
The world in front of his eyes looked like a combination of a sandstorm and a rainstorm. Dust was rising, and raindrops were smacking his face. The two incompatible storms had somehow been mixed. He couldn’t detect anything with magic power anymore. Only the Magic Array was still usable.
He flew onward for another 1,000 kilometers. Then, he seemed to have crossed a border, and the horrifying storm was left behind as an enormous wall.
Having no time to examine the new situation, Lin Yun fell to the surface of the sea from the sky, with a heavy pressure on his soul. There even seemed to be an invisible mountain above his head, which stopped Lin Yun from floating in the sky, and forced him to descend.
It was not until he almost crashed in the sea that he finally fended off the pressure. The fat kid had been pressed into a round green pie on Lin Yun’s shoulder. His chubby, round face had been completely deformed..
