<h4>Chapter 1379: Elemental Spirit King</h4>
The power ofw that Lin Yun had mastered could only help him approach this part, but couldn’t get him any closer to the core. He couldn’t reach the core until he fully mastered thew of water.
As a matter of fact, as long as he showed theplete version of thew of water, he wouldn’t even need to search; the core would appear wherever he was.
He had reached the core only because the natural protection of his Natural Demine was activated. It had projected thews from the Natural Demine.
The projectedws were identical to thews that had evolved in the Demine. Lin Yun couldn’t control them yet.
Lin Yun had only learned 20% of thepletew of water, and could only wield 20% of its power. The rest couldn’t be utilized until the Natural Demine projected thew with its natural protection.
That was the same as before Lin Yun advanced into level 5 of the Heaven Rank. The Natural Demine’s projection ofws only depended on how evolved thosews were inside the Natural Demine. It didn’t depend on Lin Yun’s understanding.
The water in this world didn’t have any sentience. It would only appear where it should be ording to fixed rules. The result would be the same whether Lin Yun had mastered thew of water or it had just evolved in the Natural Demine.
After leaving his mark, Lin Yun disappeared from the world of water instantly.
He had estimated that the spell worlds of light and darkness would follow the worlds of earth, fire, water, and wind. However, after leaving his mark in the world of water, which was on the bottom level, he found no more worlds down below. There was no telling whether those four worlds were all, or he was just too weak to see the new ones.
He had destroyed the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras’ own Magic Tool Incarnation, and turned Syudos into it. However, Syudos was iplete as a Magic Tool Incarnation.
At the beginning, Syudos was only able to control the world of mes. He could only control the worlds that Lin Yun conquered, and make the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras more powerful.
Nobody knew how many worlds there were in the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras except the original Magic Tool Incarnation. In real history, the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras had never be an Extraordinary Magic Tool. Nobody had ever collected all the Fate Tablets.
The Book of Ten Thousand Mantras, which allegedly contained all spells of the world, might have other abilities besides the spells, but that was uncertain. After all, it had always been known as a True Spirit Magic Tool.
The Book of Ten Thousand Mantras had dark spells, but didn’t have a world of dark spells, which surprised Lin Yun.
He left the world of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras, and it began to change. The enormous gate was enshrouded in the power of fire, ice, wind, and earth, and so was the surface of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras.
Gradually, all the four powers were gone, reced by a colorful streak of brilliance that covered the surface of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras. The power of earth, fire, water, and wind was circting, and the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras’ aura was expanding quickly.
After the brilliance on the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras was gone, Syudos emerged from the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras. He didn’t look like a cloud of floating energy, but more like a Medusa with four arms. He had Medusa’s tail and a human upper body. His face looked like that of an elf. There was a different power on each of his arms.
The power of earth, fire, water, and wind was on his arms, but he was only 30 centimeters tall.
Syudos was shocked and delighted. He observed his own body, which was now a real entity. It meant that he was no longer just a Magic Tool Incarnation.
“Sir Merlin, I… I think I’ve evolved into an Elemental Spirit King…” Syudos opened his mouth, stammering. He sounded like a kid at first, then a female, then a male, and in the end an old man…
When he talked, his voice was changing even in the same sentence, but he didn’t sound unnatural at all. Everything was smooth.
There was shock on all of Enderfa’s faces. Then, he mumbled jealously, “Damn it, every time I hear the Elemental Spirit King’s voice, I want to kill him. It’s so disgusting…”
Xiuban and the others looked weird. They found it hard to ept the strange changing voice. It almost sounded like there were dozens of people talking together inside Syudos’ body.
It sounded even weirder when he said short sentences. Every syble was in a different tone.
Lin Yun wasn’t too surprised. Still, he found it quite creepy, even though he had been prepared.
The Fire Element Spirit, the Wind Element Spirit, the Ice Element Spirit, and the Earth Element Spirit…
They were creatures that were unique to the elemental nes. They were the purest elemental creatures, and in a way represented those elements.
The Elemental Spirits were creatures that boasted the power of four elements at the same time. Their poption was extremely small. The strongest of them were the Elemental Spirit Kings.
The Elemental Spirit Kings were naturally immune to all elemental spells, and wouldn’t get hurt by elements. For them, an elemental storm was just a big swimming pool. In fact, they spent most of their time living inside elemental storms. The storms that were terrible and deadly to other creatures were ces that the Elemental Spirit Kings found mostfortable.
Under normal circumstances, every Elemental Spirit King was beyond the Heaven Rank…
Lin Yun had expected Syudos to evolve into an Elemental Spirit. He didn’t anticipate that he would turn into an Elemental Spirit King so quickly. It also suggested that the Elemental Spirit King was just a category, not a level. All the recorded Elemental Spirit Kings were above the Heaven Rank, but there had to be unrecorded Elemental Spirit Kings who were below the Heaven Rank.
When the lunatics of the Thorny Crown summoned the devil overlord, the devil overlord was scared off upon detecting the Elemental Spirit King, and even spat out the soul it got.
It probably cut off all the connections because it was afraid that the Elemental Spirit King would chase it down. Even in hell, nobody would be able to stop an Elemental Spirit King from going on a rampage.
The Elemental Spirit Kings were almost immortal wherever there were elements. All elements were their source of power. There were naturally elements in hell too. Only those who had brain problems would fight the Elemental Spirit King where there were elements…
The most obvious feature of the Elemental Spirit Kings was that their voices represented the cycle of life. They started their every sentence with a kid’s voice, and ended it with that of an old man’s. Elements would rise and ebb as they talked.
However, although such creatures were powerful and wise, they were neither evil nor kindhearted, just like elements. They wouldn’t destroy things, but they wouldn’t give a hand, either.
Under normal circumstances, they rarely intervened with human beings. In fact, 10,000 yearster, Noscent’s mages would go to an Elemental Spirit King, and ask for his help, but he was unwilling to offer it. He simply gave a special magic tool, which had recorded a sentence that the Elemental Spirit King said.
The magic tool was eventually embedded in the Shelter Tower. Thanks to the Elemental Spirit King’s spell, elements rose and ebbed and slowed down Noscent’s declination.
Lin Yun was quite satisfied with the pleasant surprise. At least, he could study Syudos’ body structure, and perfect the Elemental Spirit King’s incarnation.
The Elemental Spirit King’s incarnation that he had was now iplete. Also, it was created by Noscent’s mages. How could he create the most powerful Elemental Spirit King’s incarnation without studying a real Elemental Spirit King?
It was the most powerful incarnation spell in legends. It was said that when one fully mastered thews of earth, fire, water, and wind, and performed the most perfect Elemental Spirit King incarnation, one would be like an invincible Elemental Spirit King in the flesh.
Lin Yun certainly wouldn’t let go of such an opportunity now that he was given the chance. After all, under normal circumstances, nobody had the chance of studying an Elemental Spirit King’s body structure.
Everything was ready. He had prepared 10 magic battleships. Nine of them were first-generation models, and thest was a second-generation model. A lot of alchemy puppets were standing by in every magic battleship. Most of them were battle and engineering puppets.
The mage legion was standing by in the Natural Demine too. Thew of fire hadpletely evolved in the Natural Demine, and Lin Yun had opened it to the legion mages. All 50 of them were almost enshrouded in thew of fire, and grasped it at an astonishing speed.
Kurumu was already a level-9 Archmage. Even the weakest of them were level-7 Archmages, and the gap was reducing. The legion mages passed the phase ofying the foundation ofws even faster than when they umted mana.
In the ne of the Undead, the power of light was the most destructive, and the power of fire was the second. Also, for many undead creatures, fire was sometimes even more damaging than light.
He had to take the legion mages, Xiuban, Reina, and Marianna. However, those people had to be hidden in the Natural Demine, or the consequences wouldn’t be delightful if so many living people showed up in the ne of the Undead.
Xiuban, in particr, had such a powerfully beating heart and vitality that the undead creatures could probably feel him from dozens of kilometers away.
A lot of people had to be brought on this trip, but they could only stay in the Demine for now. It was best to travel on his own while he explored the ne of the Undead. It was easier for disguise anyway.
If he covered himself up with the power of darkness, he wouldn’t be very eye-catching in the ne of the Undead. After all, there were a lot of dark creatures in the ne of the Undead too.
After the base was constructed, Lin Yun returned to Noscent, and took a look, only to find that all the forces that were asked to reinforce the Leviathan ne had left a dozen days earlier. Someone sent a magic letter to the Gilded Rose, but Lin Yun never received it.
Lin Yun was slightly surprised that they left a dozen days earlier. He thought that he would be able to leave with them. He nned to talk to the Starry Sky College before he left. However, he turned out to be toote.
Considering for a moment, Lin Yun spected that he might have lost track of time inside the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras where there was no sound or light. After all, he was already quite dizzy back then.
Lin Yun wasn’t really bothered that he didn’t keep up with the others. He never nned to explore with them anyway.
He gave some instructions to Faleau, and then returned to the Skeleton ne, opening its channel to the ne of the Undead. On this side of the channel, the Cave Gnomes and the alchemy puppets started to build magical buildings and watchtowers that surrounded the channel, and would kill any unidentified creatures that came out of the channel.
Passing through the channel, Lin Yun found himself in an empty world with a gray sky and a ck and graynd. He looked around with Hawk Eye, and spotted a few skeleton creatures that were wandering unconsciously.
As if they detected some noise, the skeleton soldiers, who had blue fires of soul burning in their skulls, looked in Lin Yun’s direction. Some even elerated and rushed to the entrance of the channel.
Lin Yun spouted a darknessw rune, enveloping himself in ck mist, and spreading the gloomy and dark aura of an extraordinary creature. Instantly, the rushing skeleton soldiers stopped. Their fires of souls started to shiver, and they all turned around and fled.
When they faced a living man, they would be too instinctively attracted to vitality and blood to fear anything. It made no difference whether the man was an ordinary person or a Heaven Rank mage.
However, if they encountered a dark creature, they would rather go as far away as possible. After all, in the ne of the Undead, the dark creatures and the undead creatures weren’t really close.
The dark creatures, no matter how wicked, were mostly living creatures, whereas the undead creatures had all lost their lives.
Lin Yun dropped a few darkw runes that blocked the entrance of the channel. He then left a mark, which should be enough to prevent creatures weaker than Lin Yun from approaching the ce. After all, in the ne of the Undead, the cause of most wars was territory.
At this moment, creatures that were stronger than Lin Yun surely wouldn’t stay in this remote corner. If they were smart enough, they would surely be nning to upy thend in the new ne. It was the best opportunity for the experts who didn’t want to surrender to other creatures.
After examining the directions, Lin Yun picked one that had the highest number of undead creatures.
This ce was the wilderness of the ne of the Undead in a far-flung area. Otherwise, the Skeleton ne would’ve been upied by strong undead creatures. It was a territory anyway.
The liches that were transformed from other creatures loved such remote nes as their territories. It was very safe for them to conduct their experiments, store their phcteries, and keep their backup bodies in such territories.
Such small nes that were connected to the ne of the Undead without being swallowed could be sold to liches for a good price.
Lin Yun flew for a couple of days, tracking down the gathering undead creatures. He crossed a desert that was full of bones. Finally, the undead creatures on the ground were above level 30.
There were a lot of bones on the ground. Some of them belonged to creatures dozens of meters tall. They seemed to have been worn out over countless years, almost turning into fossils.
Three crows with broken wings were pecking at a ghoul’s body inside an enormous skull. All of a sudden, a white line appeared on the ground in the distance, and the bones on the ground were knocked up. In the blink of an eye, a creature which looked like a gnome, and had a huge head, a round belly, and slim limbs emerged in the middle of the bones and dust, grimacing.
The ghoul, which was only 1.5 meters tall, roared and jumped, smashing the skull that was a dozen meters tall. It gritted its teeth and tore the three crows apart before it gouged out their hearts, and swallowed them angrily.
The ghoul seemed still angry after swallowing the crows’ hearts. It patiently collected the pieces of the crows.
After it was done, the ghoul finally looked up at Lin Yun in dissatisfaction.
“Hey, buddy, are you done watching? Do I have to beg you for you to burn up the bodies of those filthy creatures?”
Immediately, thew rune in Lin Yun’s hand dimmed. He looked at the ghoul with a strange expression. It was quite unusual for a gnome to be transformed into a ghoul, not to mention an extraordinary one. It had awakened its wisdom, and was talking with its tongue, not soul waves.
After a moment of hesitation, Lin Yun snapped his fingers, and the remains that the ghoul had gathered were set aze and burnt into ashes very soon.
