End of the Magic Era

In no more than 10 minutes, a lot of beasts, which were a dozen meters tall and looked like monkeys except for the grass on their back, ran out of the woods. It took them only three minutes to tear apart and swallow the two-headed stone lion’s remains.

Then, another beast that looked like an Earth Dragon emerged from the woods. It was more than 100 meters tall, and swallowed one of the strange monkeys. After five of the monkeys were swallowed, the rest of the monkeys all shrieked and escaped. The behemoth then followed them.

Because of the stench of blood, the entire forest seemed enlivened. Countless beasts were fighting and mauling each other. Then, all of a sudden, they seemed to have detected something terrifying, and all fled into the distance.

A swarm of strange birds, which had three heads and a wingspan of more than 30 meters, shrieked, and flew out of the trees. 1,000 of them flew out of the forest, and escaped like a black cloud.

Even more creatures that Lin Yun hadn’t detected yet seemed to come to life. A tree that was more than 800 meters tall suddenly turned into an enormous treant, and it slowly fled with all the beasts.

Lin Yun also detected a terrifying aura that was getting closer and closer, but he didn’t see anything in a radius of 30 kilometers, at least not anything that carried that sort of terrifying aura.

Suddenly, Lin Yun raised his head. The sky became dark all of a sudden. An enormous shadow appeared in the sky, and covered a wider and wider range. It was shockingly fast.

Lin Yun was quite appalled. Without thinking, he unfolded his Fusion Shield. Crystal Scale, a level-8 spell that had been copied on the Sage Chapter, was cast by him too.

A crystal scale that was only half a meter tall appeared above Lin Yun’s head, and enshrouded Lin Yun in its dazzling brilliance.

In the next second, the shadow in the sky fell five kilometers away. It turned out to be an enormous hoof that was at least a kilometer in diameter. Looking up from the hoof, there was a thick leg that rose from the ground to the clouds like a pillar.

Lin Yun only had the time for one quick glance. Then, he didn’t have a chance anymore. When the hoof fell on the ground, a terrifying blast spread out like an explosion.

The trees that weren’t really damaged in the battles of level-40 beasts were instantly torn into countless pieces in the terrifying blast like vulnerable, rotten stakes.

Observing from the distance, it seemed that a terrifying sandstorm had arisen on the flat land. It quickly rose a kilometer in height, and spread out crazily as if it was going to destroy everything.

The flying beasts that didn’t have enough time to escape disappeared after they were caught in the sandstorm. Miserable screams came to an end one after another.

The behemoths on the ground also disappeared after they were caught in the sandstorm…

Seeing how easily the trees were torn into pieces, Lin Yun knew that the seemingly horrifying beasts had all been instantly killed…

He knew that he didn’t have a chance to escape. The blast was too fast for him to dodge. He could only try his best to weather it.

The blast spread out like a sandstorm. Countless hard pieces were rolling in the sandstorm, which looked like a gigantic mincer. Anything that was caught in it would be torn apart.

The crystal scale was a level-8 spell. Supposedly, its protection wouldn’t disappear as long as it wasn’t completely tipped to one side.

After being enhanced by the Sage Chapter, it advanced to a level-10 spell, and the protection it provided at the same cost of mana was much more incredible than before.

As long as Lin Yun provided enough mana, the protection of the crystal scale would never be ripped apart.

Lin Yun’s mana dispersed like flowing water. He took out the mana water he had prepared in advance. Having no time to drink it, he simply poured it on the crystal scale.

The left side of the scale represented defense, and the right side represented the blast it was enduring. The right side of the scale was falling. As the mana water filled in, it gradually regained balance.

After three bottles of mana water were consumed in three minutes, the terrifying blast finally ebbed.

The most terrifying sandstorm seemed to have broken out. He couldn’t see anything three meters away. Also, the pure outburst of power had disrupted all the detection spells. He couldn’t even send out his mana. He could only wait…

Gradually, the sandstorm blast vanished, and the mana and air, which had been pushed away, gradually collapsed to the center of the explosion.

Colorful light appeared like chaotic auroras, and flew towards the center from all directions.

Several kilometers away, the exuberant forest was gone, replaced by an enormous hoof mark that was dozens of meters deep. It was an utter mess within a dozen kilometers of the hoof. All the trees had been destroyed, leaving only the pieces of the trees and dead bodies on the ground…

The hoof that had just fallen from the sky disappeared. There was no telling where it went.

Lin Yun watched everything in silence with glittering eyes. He had confirmed his finding.

This was Noscent in the age of gods. The two fighting beasts he saw at first, the swarm of flying beasts that appeared later, and all the creatures that ran for their life in the end were unique creatures during the age of gods.

More importantly, the enormous hoof that fell from the sky was as powerful as a massive level-9 spell just by hitting the ground. It was even one of the most powerful level-9 spells. Even if someone in the peak of the Heaven Rank had stood in the center, they would’ve been killed…

Gods…

Only gods had such great power and such an enormous body.

The bloody hoof was one of the characteristics of the Lord of War, who looked like a tall and terrifying minotaur. In the age of gods, all minotaurs followed the Lord of War’s command. The minotaur berserkers received their ability from the Lord of War.

The Lord of War was a war maniac, and often fought other gods even when there was no war. He died when the war of gods was in the most heated phase. He wasn’t killed when his body was cut into six pieces, but continued fighting with his broken body until his body was completely torn apart, and each of the pieces was banished to a different place so that he was completely killed.

After seeing the thigh, Lin Yun began to consider whether it was true or just an illusion…

This Noscent in the age of gods had to be fake. He had already entered the Kingdom of Nightmares. Everything he met here was fake. It was just a terrible dream.

But whoever regarded this place as a dreamland would die quickly. In the Kingdom of Nightmares, the King of Nightmares made the rules. Fake dreams were the reality in this place.

Anyone who died here would be truly dead…

Looking at the boundless tall forest ahead of him from the sky, Lin Yun heaved a sigh.

He was just at the edge of the King of Nightmares. All the dreamlands here belonged to the King of Nightmares, and were founded on his laws.

This forest covered thousands of kilometers. If the periphery of the Kingdom of Nightmares was already as big as Noscent in the age of gods, then it would be a problem. It would take him a lot of time to find a path inside. He didn’t know if time flowed at the normal speed in this place…

After the hoof’s falling, the forest became surprisingly quiet. All creatures had run away. They wouldn’t stop even if they had left the area. They would go as far away as possible.

Seeing this, Lin Yun realized why vampire ancestors were reluctant to come to the Kingdom of Nightmares even though they were capable of visiting it.

He had thought that vampire ancestors could’ve established their nests at the periphery of the Kingdom of Nightmares. If they were caught in a crisis, they could just hide and sleep here. No enemies could possibly track them down and kill them.

But he realized that the odds of being killed uncannily while sleeping here were too high. Even though vampire ancestors were soulless and sturdy, and had various lifesaving abilities, they would’ve been killed easily if the hoof had stomped on them.

If they built a castle here, and had a nice sleep in it, they might get killed before they could realize it when the hoof fell from the sky.

Flying in midair, Lin Yun concealed all his aura and traces. He examined all directions, and flew to the place which contained more powerful auras.

In three hours, he had flown across more than 5,000 kilometers, yet he was still in the forest.. When he observed it with Eagle Eyes from the sky, he found that the forest stretched at least another 5,000 kilometers on the horizon.
