End of the Magic Era - Chapter 1142

Chapter 1142: Holy Mountain’s Team

He also had a resounding title, Holy Light Agent. He was known as the spokesperson of the holy light walking the earth and was an expert at Holy Light Magic. All his enemies were cleansed by holy light, and holy light sprinkled wherever he went.

Ultimately, he died in a sneak attack in the abyss. He stopped a Greater Demon Overlord for a full day by himself. His body ultimately dissipated and transformed into a holy light energy body. He used his life’s radiance and let out a forbidden holy light spell to seriously injure the Greater Demon Overlord.

In the Cloud Tower, there were very few mages that would pour their vitality into the Holy Light Law.

Lin Yun hadn’t expected to see this living legend here, before he even rose as a legend.

Clombton was among the first batch of legendary mages to rise up when Noscent’s development was still in its infancy. According to the records, he should currently be going on expeditions to outer planes for a few hundred years.

As the negotiations soon reached a conclusion, some Heaven Rank powerhouses were dispatched to the Holy Mountain, while the rest would fight in other areas of the Raging Flame Plane.

After all, the current Raging Flame Plane had already fallen into an apocalyptic state. It was incomparably chaotic. Not only were there a large number of Demons and Abyssal lifeforms pouring into the Raging Flame Plane, but there were also a lot of Demon Overlords, and even more Lesser Demon Overlords. There were also some other kinds of powerful lifeforms coming in from the spatial tears.

With no Heaven Rank powerhouses guarding the land, the Ancient God wouldn’t even need to destroy the Raging Flame Plane, as these Demons and other creatures would have already laid waste to the plane.

On the human side, the newly promoted Heaven Rank powerhouses chosen were Dedale of the Burning Tower, Raphael of Sky City, Morgan of the Henry Family, and Lin Yun, who had the power of a Heaven Rank.

Of the older Heaven Rank powerhouses, there were Dubois of the Black Tower, Slythrin of the Quicksand Tower, Birbo of the Shadow Tower, and Clombton and Butler of the Cloud Tower.

The Heaven Rank powerhouses of the Odin Royal Family and the Andlusa Royal Family that weren’t in those groups would be defending the Raging Flame Plane while the aforementioned ones would attack the Holy Mountain.

From the Beastmen, there was both Cross and Gallsworth of the Gold Tribe, Mutabla of the Blood Bone Tribe, Steer of the Bronze Tribe, and six other Heaven Rank Beastmen from other tribes for a total of ten Heaven Ranks.

The Heaven Rank powerhouses grouped up and charged towards the Holy Mountain.

Surprisingly, no one expressed any complaints as to why a 9th Rank Archmage like Lin Yun was joining them. The newly advanced Heaven Rank powerhouses had already experienced Lin Yun’s strength firsthand, so they naturally had nothing against it.

And of the ones that had newly arrived, almost all of them had conflicts with Lin Yun. Lin Yun had either gotten rid of their relatives or locked them into his Demiplane to be used as labor.

The Beastmen had also experienced Lin Yun’s strength firsthand, so they naturally remained silent. The others didn’t dare to have an opinion, since the two 3rd Rank Heaven powerhouses had agreed to it.

Slythrin and Birbo hardly concealed their evil intentions and occasionally glared at Lin Yun like vipers, while Dubois was also looking at him with a terrible expression.

‘I can finally see that Mafa Merlin. I didn’t expect that he still wouldn’t have advanced to the Heaven Rank after entering the Raging Flame Plane. That’s great.

‘We are going to be facing an Ancient God, and the weakest ones in the group, excluding Mafa Merlin, have all recently advanced to the 1st Rank of the Heaven realm. There is a high probability that this guy will die if he follows.

‘Without Extraordinary Power, he won’t be able to display his power in the chaos of battle. So what if he is powerful? If he isn’t at the Heaven Rank, he isn’t at the Heaven Rank!

‘He’ll definitely die there!’

And among the Beastmen, Blood Bone Beastman Mutabla and Bronze Beastman Birbo kept sneering.

Mutabla licked the corner of his mouth, and his cheekbones started drilling out of his skin, dripping with blood as he gave Lin Yun a cruel smile.

Birbo’s sinister face faintly drooped. He was glancing at Lin Yun from time to time like a snake.

‘That Mafa Merlin is the assassin of our Bronze Tribe’s youngest powerful warrior. Him joining this team is perfect.

‘My son was the most gifted Bronze Beastman of the past few hundred years, but he ended up returning to the embrace of the earth. I’ll make you pay a heavy price, Mafa Merlin.

‘I hope you don’t die at the Holy Mountain… I have to be the one ending your life! The Bronze Beastmen’s disgrace and hatred have to be cleansed by our own hands.’

Lin Yun remained expressionless as he looked around. There were at least five Heaven Ranks that wanted to get rid of him, and moreover, these five hardly covered their malice.

But Lin Yun didn’t care about those guys at the moment. He was actually thinking of the Raging Flame Plane’s Holy Mountain and the records of the 73rd God.

In the future, although the 73rd God was never seen again after his appearance, there were many records linked to the 73rd God. These pieces of information were too sparse and chaotic, so trying to remember them was very troublesome.

He had to keep rousing his memory in the depths of his soul and keep searching to find out.

After travelling more than 15 kilometers, the team suddenly encountered a fierce spatial fluctuation, which interrupted Lin Yun’s reverie.

A several-hundred-meter-long spatial tear suddenly appeared, and three Horned Demon Overlords covered in smoke came out of that rift. The spatial crack fiercely fluctuated, as if it was about to close again, when a huge power kept it open.

A huge demonic head stretched out from inside. Its deep purple eyes were surrounded by black smoky flames, and the terrifying aura surged like a volcanic eruption.

Then, two huge arms that looked like dark grey rock and were covered in strange patterns stretched out of the rift.

That huge spatial crack looked tangible as it had been forcibly opened by that pair of demonic hands, and a towering Purple-Eyed Demon Overlord came out.

A Purple-Eyed Black Iron Overlord and three Horned Demon Overlords suddenly appeared in front of them.

Cross and Clombton looked calm as they glanced at the four Demons.

“Leave that Purple-Eyed Demon to me… I just happened to want a pair of eyes from a Purple-Eyed Black Iron Demon Overlord for my collection. The rest are for you, humans.”

Cross spoke without care and then disappeared. A pale golden radiance exploded in front of the Purple-Eyed Demon, and Cross appeared in front of it with a cold expression. A greatsword appeared in his hand and a terrifying golden aura burst out. The large greatsword in his hand suddenly looked ten times bigger.

Cross held the gargantuan golden sword in one hand as if it was a light strand of wheat.

Fear could be seen on the Purple-Eyed Demon Overlord’s face. The aura of a Peak 3rd Rank Heaven powerhouse instilled the instinctive fear of facing a predator.

The Purple-Eyed Black Iron Demon Overlord was about to flee towards the spatial tear in panic, but a faint golden light flashed, and Cross’ body was already in front of him, his golden sword already covered in purple blood.

With a bang, the Aura Sword covering Cross’ greatsword shattered and purple blood rained down on the ground while Cross flew up to the Purple-Eyed Demon Overlord again.

The Purple-Eyed Demon was frozen, as if he had been hit by a Medusa’s Petrifaction. He foolishly stood there motionlessly, letting Cross dig out his two crystal-like purple eyes.

Cross slowly flew back. Behind him, bloody scars started appearing on the Purple-Eyed Demon Overlord’s neck, chest, and limbs.

With a breeze, purple blood started spraying out of these wounds. The Purple-Eyed Demon’s limbs were sliced off, and his head fell to the ground like a rock.

Blood started spreading in the surroundings like small waves.

Instant kill…

Apart from Clombton, no one had seen Cross’ movements.

Clombton slightly frowned but remained silent.

The expressions of the other human Heaven Rank powerhouses became even more solemn.

Countless law runes frantically flickered in Lin Yun’s eyes. Even with the Magic Array, it took him more than ten seconds to deduce Cross’ previous movements.

He had appeared in front of the Purple-Eyed Demon and instantly slashed eight times with one hand, so fast that the Purple-Eyed Demon couldn’t react.

The most important part was that the gap in strength was too high. He had cut open the body of the Purple-Eyed Demon as if it was a sheet of paper, encountering no resistance at all.

Lin Yun frowned.

‘One Hit!

‘If I faced this Gold Beastman, he would only need one hit to get rid of me. I wouldn’t be able to resist at all!

‘He already has a foot in the 4th Rank of the Heaven realm, and his strength has undergone an extreme change. 1st Rank Heaven powerhouses simply can’t see his movements, they would be killed in an instant!’

While Lin Yun was pondering what to do if Cross was his opponent, ice-cold killing intent stabbed his skin.

Slythrin and Birbo burst with powerful mana fluctuations and casually looked at Lin Yun before walking out.

A layer of dense yellow sand floated around Slythrin as Endless Sand surged from his body and transformed into a huge wave of sand crashing towards a Horned Demon.

As the Endless Sand scratched against the ground, it kept turning the earth into more grains of sand. The closer they were to the Holy Mountain, the worse the environment was and the further the destruction had progressed. In that place, Slythrin’s power could be displayed to its peak.

The sand wave formed a sinister monster skull as it grew bigger and bigger.

It was like a terrifying monster suddenly rushed out of the ground. A Horned Demon Overlord roared and rushed over. His body flickering with dense black smoke as the rich abyssal power attached to his body. It was like a huge creature was charging over.
