End of the Magic Era

Chapter 1220 - Fatal Crisis



Chapter 1220 Fatal Crisis

Laibo groaned, his body slightly froze and shock could be seen in his eyes.

‘So powerful… This is definitely not the power of a 1st Rank Heaven powerhouse. That power is comparable to a 2nd Rank Heaven Sword Saint’s. Even that 2nd Rank Beastman Heaven Sword Saint I met three years ago wasn’t that powerful…’

As Laibo froze, another giant puppet rushed over and slammed its greatsword down like a hammer.

Laibo paled from this second clash, he wasn’t able to parry that terrifying power. It travelled through the Song of Sacrifice onto his body and tore two layers of his Battle Aura Armor.

Two Heaven Puppets already forced Laibo into a defensive state, the speed of the other two 2-meter-tall puppets was terrifying. They simultaneously appeared at Laibo’s side as he was hit by the Heavy Strike ability rune’s power. The swords in their hands turned into shadows that aimed at Laibo’s vitals and Laibo had to defend every single spot they targeted.

Laibo didn’t dare to retreat against the four Heaven Puppets’ attacks since his junior apprentice brothers and sister were behind him. Mariana and the others would die instantly when faced with these attacks.

After letting out a deep roar, Laibo burst out with all his strength. Runes appeared on the surface of Song of Sacrifice and that deathly still aura became even fiercer, even affecting the power of the Heaven Puppets.

The two puppets with Lightning Speed ability runes had their speed decreased by half and they could finally be seen when on the move.

With a swing, the Song of Sacrifice in his right hand turned into a sword curtain that blocked all the incoming attacks.

The four Heaven Puppets were completely repelled, but half of Laibo’s hair had turned white after a single hit, his lifeforce was getting consumed too fiercely

But the next second, the two four-arms puppets with Lightning Speed Runes appeared once again at Laibo’s sides, while the huge powerful puppet’s Heavy Strike also fell down.

Laibo had a solemn expression, he then used his Song of Sacrifice to cut his own chest and let his heart’s blood flow onto the blade. His throbbing heart could even be seen through that wound, but that wound was instantly restored by his powerful lifeforce.

Half of Laibo’s hair instantly turned silver white and his lifeforce was decreased by half, but he was bursting with deathless aura. His power doubled in an instant.

The surface of his Song of Sacrifice was covered in runes and the blade turned gray. A thick deathly still aura spread open as the elements around the blades seemed to turn dead. Those elements didn’t even recover after leaving the Song of Sacrifice.

By relying on this power, Laibo managed to resist the attacks of the four Heaven Puppets.

The Monster Strength puppet could display power comparable to 2nd Rank Heaven powerhouses, an although the Heavy Strike puppet was somewhat weaker, its power had a transferable nature. Even if the blow was blocked, it could go through the defenses and shake Laibo’s body.

The biggest threat was actually the two Lightning Speed four-arms puppets which coordinated perfectly. The swords in their hands were coordinating with the Lightning Speed Rune’s power, and they would pierce through Laibo’s body as long as there was an opportunity.

As for Constantine and the others, they were now completely unable to approach Laibo. His battlefield was too violent and Laibo didn’t have time to take care of them. A few dozen level 39 puppets were surrounding Constantine’s group and completely pressured them down. It would be a matter of time before they were eliminated.

On the other side, Lin Yun’s battlefield had already extended to over a kilometer. Syudos was controlling the Book of Mantras and kept releasing floods of flames. These flames all had the power of the Heaven Rank and they would bring a lot of damage to these puppets on a large scale.

And the elemental storms released by Enderfa were also rapidly corroding the defenses of these level 39 puppets. As long as their defenses were torn apart, the flood of flames and elemental storms would tear these puppets apart within seconds.

To Lin Yun, the biggest threat was those Heaven Puppets.

The five-meter-tall giant puppet’s ability rune was Steel Body. Once the rune shone, the puppet’s body would turn silver white. It was holding a greatsword in one hand, a four-meter-tall tower shield in the other and was resisting Lin Yun’s dozens of Four Element Bombs without suffering a single injury. Its body was merely shaking and its charge was stopped.

One of the other puppets was two-meter-tall and a blood-red blade symbol could be seen on its body. It was hiding behind the Steel Body Puppet to resist the pressure and then took the opportunity to approach Lin Yun.

But Lin Yun’s plan was targeting it, that ability rune was too well-known. It was the legendary Critical Hit Rune. And with its dilapidated appearance, Lin Yun knew that if he let that puppet approach, one hit would be enough to tear his strongest defense, the Law Runic Shield, apart!

By himself, Lin Yun held 80 level 39 puppets, two melee Heaven Puppets, and two casting Heaven Puppets in check.

Of the two casting puppets, one had a Omnispell Power Buff, while the other had an even rarer Weaken Rune

The two Heaven Puppets raised their right arms and Explosive Rays, as well as Frostbolts, shot out.

Every second, four to five Explosive Rays were shot out, and some of them were bound to hit Lin Yun’s Law Runic Shield. Every hit roused six thousands to seven thousand law runes, and if he was hit twice within a short period of time, the roused law runes would surpass ten thousand.

Those Frostbolts could even pierce through Syudos’ flood of flames to hit Lin Yun’s Law Runic Shield, greatly weakening those law runes. He originally only needed eight thousand law runes to resist one of them, but he now needed over ten thousand!

Even with the attack of those Frostbolts, the activity of the surrounding elements kept on decreasing. Not only did the activity of the fire elements substantially decrease, even the ice elements became silent. This kind of power was the best choice for ice.

Lin Yun kept on releasing floods of spells and Mass Four Element Bombs. That way, he was blocking the attacks of the casting puppets and the Steel Body Puppet was warded off a hundred meters away. Only at that range could he barely be safe.

Because the Steel Body Puppet couldn’t approach, and that Critical Hit Puppet also couldn’t get close. Almost all of the energy of the Critical Hit Puppet was used to supply the battle system. When its energy burst out, it would burst with formidable power that completely exceeded its rank.

Defensive shields and spells only had two outcomes. One, they wouldn’t break if they could handle the upper limit of the attack.

The second outcome was that the attack was too powerful, and whether it was a mage shield or a swordsman’s Aura, the attack would affect the surroundings’ defensive law runes.

But if the burst attack was too powerful, fast and strong to the point where the law runes didn’t have time to react before being torn apart, then the defensive shield would also be torn apart.

That Critical Hit Puppet’s attack would definitely accomplish it!

Lin Yun’s Magic Array kept revolving, calculating the attacks’ trajectories and focusing on taking out those level 39 puppets.

As time passed, the level 39 puppets decreased in numbers, and even the puppets besieging Constantine and the others slowly joined the battle against Lin Yun.

By the time half of the Level 39 puppets were eliminated, something unexpected happened.

Those two Heaven Rank casting puppets raised their left arms and suddenly attacked, even though they hadn’t managed to find an opening.

An icy blue ray of light and a golden red ray of light crossed over several hundred meters almost instantly and bombarded Lin Yun’s Law Runic Shield.

The icy blue ray of light immediately roused twenty thousand law runes on impact, while at the same time, a layer of blue radiance enveloped the Law Runic Shield’s surface.

The activity of all the law runes seemed to have been corroded, as if they had been hit by Laibo’s deathless aura. The atmosphere instantly became spiritless and the activity decreased by at least 50%.

And at this time, the golden ray of light spat out by the other puppet bombarded the surface of Lin Yun’s Law Runic Shield and due to the law runes’ activity being reduced, the Law Runic Shield’s defenses were greatly reduced.

After blocking the second ray, the Law Runic Shield’s runes reached up to fifty thousand runes.

Most of the power of the Law Runic Shield had been mobilized on the surface of the shield.

This sudden attack stunned Lin Yun, it was completely different from their previous fighting style, but the throbbing of the law runes interrupted his attacking rhythm.

The Critical Hit Puppet that had been hiding behind the Steel Body Puppet was grabbed by the Steel Body Puppet and fiercely thrown towards Lin Yun.

Even if the Steel Body Puppet was expert in defense and its defensive power had reached an unfathomable level, its strength wasn’t weak. The Critical Hit Puppet’s small body was extremely brittle and was no different from rock.

The tower shield the Steel Body Puppet was holding with one hand was at least a few dozen times heavier than the Critical Hit Puppet.

And this split second throw made the Critical Hit Puppet instantly cross over a hundred meters. As for the Critical Hit Puppet, it softly tapped on the ground as it approached Lin Yun, slightly altering its path.

The dagger it had been holding in a reverse grip suddenly appeared and its body was like an afterimage that appeared in front of the continuously fluctuating Law Runic Shield. Then, a layer of blood-red radiance shone on the puppet’s hands as the Critical Hit Rune’s power activated.

The dagger fiercely pierced the surface of the Law Runic Shield, and the Law Runic Shield, who had half of its runes throbbing, instantly burst like a popped bubble.

The endless law runes were like a swarm of bees that had lost their nest while the dagger thrust’s remaining power was still piercing towards Lin Yun’s body.

A deadly feeling of crisis appeared in Lin Yun’s mind. At this moment, Lin Yun’s mind power was roused and the thrusting dagger suddenly slowed down.

The exploding law runes seemed to be floating in the air and Lin Yun’s pupils rapidly shrunk. The dagger’s sharp aura was aiming at his heart. It was less than a meter away but it already pressured his heart to the point where it couldn’t throb.

A fatal crisis. It had been such a long time since Lin Yun felt the danger of death. But Lin Yun instead became calm. Raging flames were ignited in his mind and soul, and in the depths of his soul, the flames that were only burning that gate started burning the entire space.

The Magic Array started calculating at full capacity, surpassing its limits in an instant and calculating everything in his surroundings.

On the side, Enderfa’s three faces were startled and infuriated, the Spell Wheel was already revolving like a pinwheel, but he wouldn’t have time to cast a spell to save Lin Yun.

On the Book of Mantras’s side, Syudos’ eyes flickered.

Laibo, who had been resisting with great difficulty, was shocked and gritted his teeth. He glanced at Lin Yun’s side, but the four puppets who forced him to burn half of his lifeforce to lift the seal of Song of Sacrifice were keeping him tied.

After all, the power these puppets with upper grade ability runes could display surpassed the 1st Rank. Their teamwork was comparable to a 2nd Rank Heaven powerhouse, and even ordinary 2nd Rank Heaven powerhouses might have died under such circumstances.

When going all-out, Laibo could compare to a peak 2nd Rank Heaven powerhouse, and even with the deathly still power of the Song of Sacrifice, he could only fight to a standstill. How could he spare the energy to help Lin Yun? He was too far anyway, he wouldn’t be able to make it.

The Critical Hit Puppet’s dagger was already a meter away from Lin Yun. At this range and with the Law Runic Shield already shattered, Lin Yun would undoubtedly die.

Shock could be seen on Mariana’s face, she had clearly not expected that situation.

Constantine was also stunned and gleeful…

In a split second, Lin Yun felt as if he had already died. His surroundings were moving in slow-motion and everyone’s expression seemed frozen.

Many things that Lin Yun would have not paid attention to before were now on his mind. His body, his mana, he started recalling many things that weren’t too valued and that he had already forgotten.

At this time, Lin Yun thought of everything that could block this dagger.

In an instant, almost instinctively, Lin Yun’s mana burst out. It transformed into a fountain that spurted out of Lin Yun’s mouth.

The pure mana impact directly hit the dagger’s remnant power, but it didn’t match the dagger’s power, it only somewhat weakened its power and slowed it down.

That power and speed wasn’t something a mage like Lin Yun could resist.

In his mind, the flames, covering that gate that seemed to have been there since ancient times, suddenly turned multi-colors before spreading out. The multi-colored flames started spreading into the pitch-black void.

Lin Yun looked at the dagger that was about to pierce his skin and he stomped on the ground to increase the distance. But how could that compare to the dagger’s momentum.

But as the wisps of Lin Yun’s aura scattered, the Critical Hit Puppet’s became sluggish. Its speed was just a tiny bit faster than Lin Yun.

Lin Yun kept retreating four meters before the dagger finally touched his magic robe. But in addition to the robe’s defense, he usually never used, Lin Yun roused a Mana Shield.

The dagger pressured down on the Mana Shield and Lin Yun lost his final defense.

It felt as if time stretched for more than ten minutes. The strongest attack of the Critical Hit Puppet had failed and it immediately planned to withdraw, but some of Lin Yun’s law runes attached themselves to the Critical Hit Puppet. By the time it returned to the cover of the Steel Body Puppet, those few law runes gathered together and took the shape of two extreme powers clashing together.

A loud explosion echoed as the Critical Hit Puppet’s left arm exploded into pieces. But this injury was negligible to an assassination puppet.

At this time, Lin Yun’s body rapidly rose up and elemental power condensed on his body as he rapidly displayed the Four Element Incarnation.

And on the ground, numerous Firebolts, Exploding Rays, and Frostbolts swept over Lin Yun’s original location. Lin Yun had just resisted the Critical Hit Puppet’s most powerful attack, he would have definitely died if he hadn’t dodged this. After all, his Law Runic Shield had been shattered.

As he was floating in the air, Lin Yun had an exhausted expression. In that split second, his mind, and even the Magic Array, had been in overload.

Lin Yun’s entire mana had been consumed, in that split second of burst, all of his power had been drained.

But his eyes actually became increasingly brighter and his temperament was completely changing.
