End of the Magic Era

Chapter 1337 - Upgrade



Chapter 1337: Upgrade

They were the most suitable to be melted into the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. Those basic law runes were like a foundation. A powerful foundation was what made one continuously grow strong.

Half an hour later, the mana around Lin Yun was so dense that it was almost corporeal. The mist of mana had already become sticky. One breath here could replenish all the mana that one had used up.

The alchemy array set up in the castle had already been fully activated, locking all the waves inside the castle tightly. However, things were already changing inside the Natural Demiplane. On the peak of the pillar, mana had gathered into dark clouds that revolved above the peak like a vortex. From the center of the vortex, a colorful column of light was falling.

A terrifying amount of mana raged throughout the plane. The mana stored in the Natural Demiplane was quickly exhausted. The water level in the Mana Lake was dropping continuously. Facing the crazy mana exhaustion, the mana bushes that had already gathered into a forest woke up. They rose from the ground and extended vines into the void, shaking their trunks like green serpents.

Mana was pulled into the Demiplane by the greedy vines from the void, and then transformed and purified into torrents that gathered on top of the vines. Then, the torrents hit the Mana Lake like a waterfall, replenishing the exhausted water in the lake.

The entire plane was trembling. All the creatures in the plane, be they laborers that had been caught here or others, were hiding and shivering in fear. An Extraordinary Magic Tool was being born. The essence of the plane had been summoned. This rarely happened unless the plane was about to collapse.

The collapse of a plane, even just a small one, was so powerful that even the experts who could destroy it easily would have to avoid it.

Everything that Lin Yun had done earlier paid off. He had invested a lot of Eternal Dark Gold into the construction of the plane, making it much harder than usual. Also, the Demiplane he established was melted into the center of the Natural Demiplane as a pillar. Then, he fused 108,000 truth runes into the pillar.

Even though there were still 90% of truth runes he hadn’t learned yet, the power of the truth runes made the pillar the stablest place in the Natural Demiplane that prevented the essence and the plane from being shaken.

Everything made the Natural Demiplane develop to a terrifying level. It was the essence of a Natural Demiplane, not its size, that evolved first. At this moment, even when the essence of the Natural Demiplane had been activated, it rarely had any influence on the entire plane.

Unending mana was injected into the center of the pillar, where a ball of light was expanding and shrinking, and emitting such a horrifying aura as if a god were about to wake up there.

The enormous vortex was revolving faster and faster in the sky. More and more mana was instilled into the center of the pillar from the thick column of colorful light.

Outside the Natural Demiplane, the space around the castle was already twisted. Even the Heaven Rank alchemy array couldn’t entirely block the waves inside the castle. The space inside the castle was distorted too. The hill of magic crystals had been mostly used up, and the mana they released had all been absorbed.

Lin Yun solemnly stared at the Natural Demiplane’s projection, and threw another 100,000 pieces of magic crystals that he had cut apart. They dispersed even faster than before.

When the mana was exhausted so quickly, Lin Yun was actually more relaxed. The more mana was swallowed, the more successful the conception and the more powerful the new Ten Thousand Spell Wheel would be.

As time went by, the mana in the Natural Demiplane was almost boiling, and its essence had already been activated. Had it not been for the pressure of the pillar, it probably would’ve been damaged.

The waves were much less intense than before, but they still couldn’t be blocked. Observed from outside, the space around the castle seemed to have been completely twisted. Terrifying waves were spreading out from the castle. The patrolling alchemy puppets all turned around, and looked at it.

Pabiete’s crystal eyes glittered frequently. He looked back at the castle, which had been completely deformed, and decisively gave the command of patrolling in a larger range to all the alchemy puppets.

All the puppets began to patrol a large area with the castle as the center. They patrolled in a radius of almost 30 kilometers.

This manor had been picked because it was quite remote. It was just a large farm. The nearest farms were hundreds of kilometers away. It was nothing surprising that nobody could be seen in a radius of dozens of kilometers. With the power of magic, it was easy for one person to manage such a large farm.

There was not an outsider within a radius of 50 kilometers. So, there was no need to worry about anything.

Xiuban and Reina were guarding the castle. Xiuban was enjoying an enormous roast leg that was 1.5 meters long, not caring about the powerful waves at all. Reina was even less bothered.

Lord Shawn gazed at the castle, which had been completely twisted, and looked like an abstract painting, and put on an envious expression.

Damn it, Enderfa is truly lucky. This is not a normal upgrade into an Extraordinary Magic Tool; this is the birth of a new Extraordinary Magic Tool.

If Merlin succeeds, Enderfa will become the Magic Tool Incarnation of natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool. He’ll be a natural-born extraordinary life. Damn it. Why didn’t I see it coming?

Merlin came out of the legendary Gate of Rebirth without upgrading the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel into an Extraordinary Magic Tool. That didn’t make sense. I didn’t know that he had a better solution.

Enderfa is terribly lucky. He’ll be a natural-born extraordinary life…

Lord Shawn was so jealous that he bit a magic crystal that was the size of a human head. Then, he chewed it loudly as if he was venting his fury.

An independent creature wouldn’t choose to become a Magic Tool Incarnation unless their body or soul was about to be destroyed. That was the best solution to keep themselves alive.

There were also special beings that became Magic Tool Incarnations to live a longer life. As long as the magic tool wasn’t destroyed or out of mana, a Magic Tool Incarnation would be able to live on forever like an undead creature. This was similar to a mage transforming into a lich, but with more restrictions.

Many Magic Tool Incarnations were such beings. Take Lord Shawn for example. He was a Soul Walker, yet he turned into a Magic Tool Incarnation. So, he tried to get rid of the identity as a Magic Tool Incarnation whenever he had a chance.

Enderfa was so smart that he had to have transformed into a Magic Tool Incarnation similarly. There was also the purple dragon incarnation in the Draconic Staff. Those Magic Tool Incarnations were similar. The purple dragon had greater potential, but only a little bit. It was not as smart as Enderfa or Lord Shawn. To obtain as much wisdom as Enderfa and Lord Shawn had, it would have to spend a lot of time on the accumulation of knowledge.

Many famous Magic Tool Incarnations were like sages. The most important reason was that they lived unimaginably long lives. Even though they were not good at learning, it was enough for them to accumulate a significant amount of knowledge over such a long span of time.

However, the natural-born Magic Tool Incarnations that were born in natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tools were different. They were the strongest. Their difference was like that between natural-born extraordinary creatures and ordinary creatures. The gap between them was too huge to be crossed.

The most important reason why Syudos could become the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras’ Incarnation was that the Elemental Spirit was one of the extraordinary creatures, and it would transform into another species in every evolution. Syudos was already a natural-born extraordinary creature when it evolved into a Flame Spirit King. That was why it could become the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras’ Magic Tool Incarnation.

Nobody could become a natural-born extraordinary life after they were born.

The Heaven Rank mages lived a much longer life than normal mages. They could live thousands of years. However, every natural-born extraordinary life could live at least 10,000 years. That was exactly the difference. When Lin Yun advanced into the Heaven Rank and walked out of the Gate of Rebirth, he was already an extraordinary life with his new body and soul. He could live 10,000 years even though he was only in level 1 of the Heaven Rank. At this moment, even if he stopped advancing from level 5 of the Heaven Rank, he could still live to the end of Noscent…

While Lord Shawn felt jealous, the new Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was still growing at a high speed.

Lin Yun had accumulated a lot of things so far. It was time he put those things into use.

As time went by, the castle didn’t just look like an abstract painting anymore. Rather, it became an amalgamation of overlapping twisted vortexes. Nothing specific could be seen anymore.

Even the Heaven Rank alchemy array couldn’t stop the internal aura from leaking out. Around the castle, a terrifying power was suppressing everything nearby. A patrolling puppet accidentally approached within 100 meters of the castle, and was instantly crushed into scrap iron.

Terrifying waves spread out. However, the frequency of the waves was too high. Although they were terrifying over a short distance, they didn’t transmit very well. They could barely be detected 30 kilometers away.

Seven days later, the pillar, which had been most stable, suddenly began to shake. The ball of light inside the pillar had already been shrunk into a cocoon. It could be vaguely seen that an illusory wheel was revolving inside.

Gradually, tiny cracks appeared on the surface of the glowing cocoon. The light from the cocoon seemed to be piercing the pillar like actual needles.

Immediately, the truth runes that had been engraved to the pillar but weren’t mastered yet were activated. Facing the light within, all the 108,000 truth runes glittered at the same time. With the help of the pillar’s power, they instantly suppressed the light.

More and more cracks appeared on the cocoon, until it fell apart into countless pieces in the end. When the entire cocoon exploded, all the things inside the cocoon splashed out into spots of light, and rose to the top of the pillar.

They were like a swarm of fireflies that flew towards the top of the pillar against the colorful column of light from the sky, which was pushed upwards when hitting the spots of light. When the fireflies flew to the sky, the dark clouds of mana collapsed in the center.

The vortex revolved faster and faster. The boundless mana that was gathered in this place was swallowed during the revolving.

In the outside world, Lin Yun’s expression changed. The magic crystals he had prepared were being exhausted dozens of times faster. The 100,000 magic crystals were used up in only a couple of seconds. Lin Yun had to add another 300,000 magic crystals.

The moment those magic crystals were thrown out, they collapsed and transformed into pure mana, filling the Natural Demiplane’s projection.

In the Natural Demiplane’s sky, light was fading away. Countless pieces were floating in the sky. Then, those pieces gathered in the center. In the blink of an eye, an enormous wheel dozens of meters tall took shape.

The wheel was covered in flowing light, with a hexagonal symbol on the surface. There was a glamorous gem on each of the hexagonal symbol’s five corners. They were red, blue, yellow, green, and black, respectively…

They represented the power of earth, fire, water, wind, and darkness. The only corner that didn’t have a gem meant that Lin Yun hadn’t grasped the law of darkness.

Around the gems of earth, fire, water, and wind, there were many branches and gems of different colors. The black gem, on the other hand, was alone.

In the center of the wheel, there was also a gem whose color was turning between silver and transparent, back and forth. It represented the power of space.

They were the manifestations of the laws Lin Yun had grasped.

The wheel revolved slowly in the sky, emitting extraordinary power like ripples. At the same time, another wheel appeared in the Natural Demiplane’s projection in the outside world. Terrifying waves of extraordinary waves spread out.

The Heaven Rank alchemy array was immediately full of cracks like broken glass, and might collapse any moment. The magic crystals inside the alchemy array were instantly used up too.

Shocked, Lin Yun hurriedly inserted a lot of magic crystals into the alchemy array to prevent it from collapsing.

Inside the Natural Demiplane, the new Ten Thousand Spell Wheel’s power spread out. The entire Demiplane was shivering. That was the natural reaction of the birth of a new Extraordinary Magic Tool.

The pillar regained all its power after it stopped powering the Natural Demiplane. It stabilized the entire plane, with all the 108,000 truth runes glittering. With the pillar, the essence of the Natural Demiplane was as stable as a mountain, and couldn’t be shaken again.

The pillar released its power. Instantly, the entire plane stopped shivering. The power that the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel revealed was just like the roar of a dragon that just grew up. It was only declaring its rise to the world.

It was suppressed in the Natural Demiplane, but not in the outside world. The power that leaked from the Demiplane’s projection had already caused even more cracks to appear on the Heaven Rank alchemy array. Even though the cracks were soon repaired, some horrifying aura still rose to the sky.

Instantly, black clouds that covered 1,000 square meters appeared. Lightning bolts that were as thick as dragons showed up in the clouds. Like thick serpents that were a dozen kilometers long, they rolled in the clouds, and descended in the area of 1,000 kilometers.

Fortunately, very few people lived in this area. There was nothing but mountains and farmlands.

After the lightning struck, the waves of extraordinary power spread thousands of kilometers away.

The dark clouds existed for a dozen seconds, and disappeared. Then, the aura that was unique to Noscent appeared on the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.

The Natural Demiplane became tranquil again. However, the thick magic vines were still shivering and splitting up into more parts to attract more mana from the void. More than half of the water in the Mana Lake was gone.

As more and more truth runes were melted into the Natural Demiplane, It was developing faster and faster, and covered an area of 10,000 square kilometers. The water that had been gone from the lake could’ve filled up a couple of Mana Lakes a few years earlier.

The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel wasn’t born until so much mana was exhausted. It usually wouldn’t require so much mana for a natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool to be born, but it would take much longer…

The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel revolved slowly, and shrank to half a meter in diameter. Then, it disappeared with a flash.

In the Natural Demiplane’s projection, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel drifted out. Then, the projection vanished.

Lin Yun stuck his finger to the center of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, and sent in some mana. Immediately, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel seemed to activate. It was covered in a halo, and released colorful rays of light. The rays gradually concentrated into Enderfa’s three faces…
