Chapter 1042: Stone Slab

Each one of those Solar Spheres was a powerful magic spell that had been temporarily sealed. The power of dozens of Solar Spheres exploding at the same time would never be as simple as one plus one equaling two.

In the previous battle, Lin Li used that exact move to almost defeat the ancient wyrm, but unfortunately, his efforts went up in smoke because of a slight error in control. It was actually not very difficult to seal just one Solar Sphere, and the difficulty lay in making all of them explode at the same time while allowing them to complement each other instead of canceling each other out.

Lin Li wasn’t too surprised, because he had already detected from the magical waves of the sealed spheres that the ancient wyrm had only learned to make the move seem legitimate, and there was a major issue with the arrangement of the other magic spells. Lin Li did not have to flee in a hurry at all. After casting several layers of magic defense on his body, the Helios’ Scepter emitted a bright stream of light in his hand, striking one of the targets before the sealed sphere erupted.

Almost at the same time, the ancient wyrm also detonated all the sealed spheres, causing horrifying magic spells to be blasted out immediately. However, because of Lin Li’s previous action, there was a loophole in the ancient wyrm’s trap. When the sealed sphere that was the first to erupt attacked Lin Li, it somehow blocked the power of the other magic spells for Lin Li.

Lin Li passed through the gap in the trap immediately as the gemstone on the top of the Helios’ Scepter flickered continuously. Like a flood, the wave of magic spells surged towards the ancient wyrm which still had a look of surprise in its eyes.

“Howl!”

As soon as it came back to its senses, the ancient wyrm knew it was caught off guard by Lin Li, and finally let out an angry roar. In the ancient wyrm’s opinion, it was obvious that it had been tricked by this tiny human again. Otherwise, how could Lin Li have remained unscathed, unlike the ancient wyrm which had been tormented badly?

However, the ancient wyrm was different from the other beasts, after all. Despite its anger, it did not get flustered and mess its plan up. Seeing that Lin Li’s magic spells were blasting hard towards it, it immediately cast its Domain World.

It was an extremely dim world where the sky was filled with countless stars, while the ground was covered with countless wyrm skeletons. Intense death aura was contained in it, but there was also the aura of decay. There was also some sacredness and might. It was the dragon graveyard, which was the final home of the ancient wyrms. It represented the death and peace of the ancient wyrms.

The wave of magic spells that Lin Li had cast immediately surged into the world of the dragon graveyard, and countless skeletons of wyrms began growing some flesh again at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, as if he had turned back time. They then flew into the sky to deal with the overwhelming magic spells.

“World!” Lin Li raised his Helios’ Scepter high, and instantly opened his World Domain, and a human world appeared in his domain. In that human world, the spirit of resistance of humans was fully showcased, from the beginning of mankind to the resistance against all sorts of difficulties, including fights against the sky, the earth, and the wyrms, as well as hunting magical beasts.

At the same time, under the influence of the World Domain, the magic spells that Lin Li cast naturally incorporated the fighting spirit of humans. The challenges and battles against the wyrms and even gods involved a fearless spirit that allowed the power of Lin Li’s magic spells to be multiplied.

The collision of magic spells and the collision of worlds caused the space in the World Domains to be shattered like glass. After the various violent collisions, the world of the ancient wyrm’s dragon graveyard began to change subtly. Countless green seedlings had appeared on the barren land, and gradually covered the ground of the dragon graveyard, giving the dead and lonely world a wisp of vitality.

In the center of the dragon graveyard, a special seedling began growing rapidly from the head of a wyrm skeleton. It then spread out and covered everything in the surroundings, making it its fertilizer. Under the nourishment of the wyrm skeletons, the seedling’s growth became faster, and it became much larger than the wyrm in the blink of an eye.

Although Lin Li had spent a long time in the domain, everything was actually a matter of moments for Lin Li and the ancient wyrm outside. When the ancient wyrm sensed the problem in its domain, the inconspicuous seedling had already grown into a gigantic tree that almost covered the entire Domain World, just like the fallen Tree of Eternity in Anril.

In fact, the sky-high tree in the dragon graveyard was simulated by Lin Li using his own World Domain and his understanding of the Tree of Eternity. In the collision of the Domain Worlds, Lin Li turned his understanding of the Tree of Eternity into a seed, which he then planted in the ancient wyrm’s domain. Once the Tree of Eternity grew up, the ancient wyrm would completely lose control of its domain.

For a Sanctuary powerhouse, the Domain World was not the embodiment of his full strength, but to two Sanctuary powerhouses that were initially evenly matched, a slight loss of control of their Domain World would mean the disruption of the balance. Actually, it wouldn’t be too difficult for an ancient wyrm to remove the Tree of Eternity from its own Domain World, but a slight change in power or time consumption would be enough to cause drastic changes in the situation.

Taking this opportunity, Lin Li immediately unleashed his strongest attack, and a scene which looked like an apocalypse appeared in the Domain World, condensing the terrifying destructive power of the world into a lightning bolt, just like the one that broke through the chaos when Anril emerged. It blasted the ancient wyrm hard.

BOOM!

The ancient wyrm did not even have time to let out a roar as its powerful body was instantly annihilated by the lightning. Peace was restored in the arena as if nothing had happened. In the arena, Lin Li was holding the Helios’ Scepter and levitating quietly with his eyes slightly closed as he recalled the scene of the battle with the ancient wyrm.

After finally defeating the 11th opponent, what opponent would he encounter next? Would it be as terrifying as a god-like existence? Although Lin Li had reached the peak of level-27, he did not think that he had enough power to deal with a godlike existence. He might get killed immediately again.

However, after Lin Li waited for a moment, he realized that the arena did not arrange a more powerful opponent for him again as before. Instead, a stone slab that glowed faintly appeared on the ground.

Have I passed? Lin Li was doubtful, but he nonetheless leaped from the sky and landed in front of the stone slab.

The stone slab was engraved with strange words that looked somewhat like images that reminded Lin Li of the so-called hieroglyphs. Fortunately, hieroglyphic words were not as complicated as the High Elves’ Print. Although he had never studied them before, he was able to guess some of the meaning.

The stone slab roughly recorded the development of some barbarians, but Lin Li was not an archaeologist, and was not very interested in these things. What he was really interested was the fact that the Immortal King was mentioned on the stone slab, which stated that the Immortal King had suddenly descended in the tribe of the barbarians, plundered all their treasures, and then built a massive battleship which he sailed off in while the barbarians watched in horror.

Lin Li was puzzled by that information. Although the Immortal King had always done shocking things, he who controlled the Sky Castle would not have to take the barbarians’ treasures to build a battleship if he wanted to explore the Endless Ocean. Besides, what items could there be in the Endless Ocean that would entice the Immortal King to go to such lengths?

Looking at the time recorded on the stone slab, Lin Li carefully recalled the legends about the Immortal King, but he suddenly discovered that the time when the Immortal King left the ocean seemed to be the exact time when he last appeared in the world of Anril. Could the Immortal King have last appeared in the depths of the Endless Ocean?

That caused Lin Li to be in disbelief. After all, with the Immortal King’s power, he could even kill an existence as powerful as the Dragon of Destruction. The Endless Ocean was extremely terrifying for ordinary people, but it didn’t seem to pose any threat to the Immortal King. What could have caused the Immortal King to go missing?

After passing the test of the Barbarous Arena, Lin Li would still go in from time to time to challenge a few opponents, but his main focus was no longer on the arena. He knew that his current strength was already at a temporary bottleneck, and the Barbarous Arena would no longer be of much use at the moment.

During this period of time, the members of the Tower of Dusk had also begun preparing for their expansion to the Endless Ocean. Firstly, they managed to gain control of Baburia City, which was hundreds of kilometers away from Calon City, with the connections of the Malfa Family. Baburia City was located at the mouth of the Versair River, and was a natural harbor that was not inferior to Calon City. The giant battleship that Lin Li had seized from the Gilded Kingdom would usually dock at that port.

After gaining actual control of Baburia City, the Tower of Dusk immediately invested heavily in a large-scale reconstruction of the entire port, and established a large shipyard next to the port. With the navigation data of the Gilded Kingdom, as well as the alchemical techniques of Lin Li and Angelano, the shipyard was continuously constructing battleships for the Tower of Dusk almost all day and night.

Is the Tower of Dusk really going to expand to the field of sea trade? In fact, even Gavin and the other senior executives of the Tower of Dusk were unclear about it. Besides, in their opinion, the Tower of Dusk could rely on their businesses on land to support the needs of rapid development, and sea commerce would not actually bring greater benefits to the Tower of Dusk.
