The group had already heard on the road that this ti they were to search for Golems left behind by Giants! This was like a stroke of trendous fortune falling upon their own heads! They might be recorded in the annals of history right away!
One person first cast the Freezing Technique, and then another stood by his side to cast it as well, and step by step, the Magma was frozen into slabs sufficient for the group to pass through. The closer they got to the center of the Magma lake, the higher the temperature, and the more Mages needed. At this point, Kabein imdiately silently praised his own wisdom, thankful he had called everyone here, otherwise there might not even have been enough people!
Seeing the path had ford, Long Yi, pretending to be Nordwich, imdiately shouted loudly, "From the last person, start running imdiately! Everyone must enter the Array, or it will be very dangerous outside!"
As he spoke, the ground began to tremble! And the surface of the Magma lake started to surge violently!
"Don’t panic! Run in order!"
Kabein roared.
But how could this group have been trained in maintaining order? They nearly all scread and ran at the sa ti, and as soon as the support of the Freezing Technique was lost, the slab pathway imdiately began to soften, and by this ti nearly half of them had not managed to make it across!
Their feet sank into the Magma, and then they tripped over. But because the density of the Magma was extrely great, they simply could not sink. They could only scream in agony on top of the Magma, rolling around in pain until they were burned to ashes.
The real number of people who entered the Teleportation Array was only a re hundred or so.
Nordwich and Kabein were the last to enter the Teleportation Array.
As they entered the Array, they were imdiately greeted by a refreshing coolness, with no more of Magma’s scorching burn.
Kabein opened his eyes to discover this was just an ordinary room. The space was not large, surrounded by tal, with two chairs placed here, alone, without his subordinates or Nordwich.
"Nordwich!" Kabein shouted loudly, the room was so small, there was no echo.
At this mont, a door suddenly opened in the tal wall on one side, and a familiar person ca in, none other than the Emperor of this Empire.
"How co you are here! Did you get the Golem?" Kabein’s eyes widened, could it be that he was a step too late?
But the Emperor laughed heartily, "You fool, your greed has blinded you to the point that you can’t even distinguish between truth and falsehood, not even guessing such an obvious lie?"
Kabein was stunned for a mont, then burst into a rage, "How dare you deceive the great Ancient Mage Tower!"
Kabein raised his hand, trying to cast Magic, but his Mana gave him no response. It was then that he realized he was in an Array that prohibited the use of magic!
"This is a prison prepared especially for you! No matter how powerful you are, don’t expect to cast even a little bit of Magic here! The walls here are made of thick steel, and with your pathetic physical strength, it’s absolutely impossible to break through! And you, esteed visitor from the Ancient Mage Tower, are now just a pathetic worm with no power to harm!" The Emperor said, lifting the scepter in his hand high and smashing it down. The intense pain told Kabein this was definitely not an illusion, nor was it a joke!
"What about my n!" Kabein covered his arm, his eyes nearly shooting fire.
"Perhaps they’re swimming in the Magma lake? Actually, if it were up to Long Yi, you should be in the Magma lake too, but I specifically requested him to teleport you here, and he even helped build this prison just for you!"
The Emperor kept talking, but Kabein could no longer hear clearly because he had heard a very serious na.
Long Yi.
How many in the entire Ancient Mage Tower would not know the na Long Yi? Powerful and aggressive, and it was said that the reason the Ancient Mage Tower wanted to control these planets and the Empire was to deal with Long Yi. But now, Long Yi had co seeking him himself! And he had been completely unaware!
"I’ll give you a hint! Actually, on my planet, there has never been a person nad Nordwich," said the Emperor proudly.
"He is Long Yi!" Kabein realized imdiately.
"Too bad, you know too late." The Emperor raised the scepter again and slamd it down hard, shouting, "Aren’t you mighty! Didn’t you threaten ? You also threatened my wife! Threatened my child? Where is your might now? Where is your greatness!"
The Emperor also couldn’t use Magic, but he had a weapon!
Kabein stared at the iron door that had been opened, secretly enduring, and the mont the Emperor slamd down again, he suddenly grabbed the scepter. He knocked the Emperor down and rushed out the door!
But as he ran through the iron door, he was imdiately restrained by two strong warriors.
The outside was still not a place of freedom, because just outside, there was another iron door!
"Look, I won’t make your mistakes. I will always leave myself an out. It’s just a pity that Long Yi has left. If he were still here, I would really have liked to let him see how I tornt you, you bastard!"
The Emperor snatched back the scepter, pointing the tip from a distance at Kabein.
"Emperor... Your Majesty, don’t be impulsive. If I die, it won’t do you any good!" Kabein said anxiously, now that he had fallen into a desperate situation, he finally realized he was like a fat sheep trapped in the jaws of a tiger, and the whole affair beca different imdiately.
"Rest assured, I won’t let you die just yet. I will take back every bit of humiliation you inflicted upon !"
At that mont, a strong middle-aged man entered. He carried a set of stone carving tools, and his expression briefly betrayed fear when he saw Kabein. But in the next mont, he straightened his chest again.
"Do you rember chopping off an old stone mason? This is his son, who went mad after his father’s death. From today on, he will teach you the art of stone carving. As for how he teaches you, it is not sothing I will witness," the Emperor said before turning around and leaving. The mason then grabbed Kabein’s shoulder and pushed him onto a chair. Madness flickered in his eyes as he held a hamr in one hand and a chisel in the other.
"Co, my lord, let’s learn about carving together!" The mason grinned and began his happy work.
The Emperor shook his head upon hearing the screams behind him and said to a guard beside him, "Keep an eye on him, he can’t die yet. There’s a long line of people waiting for their turn at revenge."
For Long Yi, this was the completion of a major undertaking, tricking the death of all Ancient Mage Towers’ power on a planet. Then without stopping, he proceeded to different planets, employing the sa ploy everywhere. By the ti the Ancient Mage Towers beca aware of what had happened, the power of Ancient Mage Towers on five planets had been completely cleansed!
Eventually, what was originally a secret proceeding was leaked by soone, and the entire Plane was suddenly abuzz with it. Naturally, the main force of this commotion was those from the Ancient Mage Towers.
Originally, when they arrived on various planets from the Ancient Mage Towers, everyone from emperors to commoners revered them like gods. Whatever they said was taken as command, and no one dared defy them. But now, Long Yi was thodically eliminating these people on a planetary scale!
In the past, the mages from the Ancient Mage Towers would have loved to write "Ancient Mage Towers" on their foreheads so that everyone could recognize them from a hundred ters away. And with their presence, so new figures erged—flunkeys of the Ancient Mage Towers. So people began to take pride in running errands for the masters from the Ancient Mage Towers, leveraging their power to act arrogantly.
But now, things had changed.
Those from the Ancient Mage Towers started to keep a low profile, wearing clothes like ordinary people, even plainer, and their tone of speech beca polite, kind, and approachable. As for those flunkeys, they were chased far away, fearing to bring trouble upon themselves.
No one knew where Long Yi would appear next, nor who would be the most unfortunate victim. One could say that those dispatched by the Ancient Mage Towers were now living in almost constant self-peril!
Nevertheless, at this mont, the truly uneasy were others.
Zulal was having sleepless nights recently. Before going into seclusion, Master Elma had personally entrusted him with this task. Although he had done everything exactly as Master Elma had instructed, who could have imagined that Long Yi would erge out of nowhere?
Elma now stood in front of a sealed chamber door, with the countdown tir steadily decreasing. Master Elma would soon erge from seclusion, but how to explain all of this to him?
While pondering, sudden heavy thuds erupted from the sealed chamber. And the thumping grew louder and more frequent!
Boom!
Before the countdown ended, the door was punched through by a crystalline fist!
Imdiately after, two crystal fists tore the door apart, and a large man composed entirely of crystal charged out.
"Master Elma...?"
Zulal asked nervously.
"Hehehe, hahaha! It’s ! Indeed, it’s ! Look at my new form! This is my new body! It harbors endless energy!"
Elma had completely transford into a Crystal Demon, his entire body made of crystal, with no brain in his head, but a massive Crystal Core instead. Vast mana swirled around his body, pulsating rhythmically.
Zulal, rely standing by his side, felt his own mana thrown into disarray by the pulsation, making him extrely uncomfortable.
"Hahaha, you are far too weak!" In Elma’s eyes, Zulal appeared so insignificant that he was completely unworthy of attention!
"Yes, compared with your greatness and wisdom, I truly am too weak," Zulal said nervously.
"The task I entrusted to you, it is proceeding smoothly, isn’t it?" Elma picked up so clothes and put them on, covering his crystalline body.
"In fact, I was just about to report to you about it," Zulal said, deciding after much thought to tell the truth, as there was no way to lie about such matters.
"Oh? Not smoothly? Is it those emperors not cooperating?" Elma asked.
"Not so, apart from The Divine Auffa Empire and the Sanctuary Empire, all other nations were extrely cooperative. No one dared to oppose," Zulal said.
"That is entirely as I anticipated. But why do you look so troubled?" Elma finished putting on his robe, the hood covering half of his face, making him less conspicuous.
"It’s because of Long Yi," Zulal said. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you are welco to vote for it on Qidian (qidian) with your recomndation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian to read.)
