After scanning through the rewards he obtained from this battle, Yang Ling bade the three head honchos of the Dark Association beside him goodbye and led the group back, quickly returning to the Magical Beast Territory through the Magical Teleportation Formation.

This battle has completely destroyed the Church’s factions in the south, successfully accomplishing their tactical goals for mobilizing his troops. More importantly, he had successfully squeezed into the ranks of the major factions within the Tailun Continent, obtaining his share of the pot.

After obtaining the Livenza Alliance, Amazon Forest, Wilderness of Siberia, Dark Marsh, and the Gold Coast, the entire area of the Magical Beast Area has been enlarged by over a hundred times, its population also expanded to several hundred, or even several thousand times that of before. As long as he managed to consolidate the resources and strength within the entire territory, the Magical Beast Territory would become a worthy major faction within the continent, lording over the eastern regions of the continent!

The problems plaguing the territory’s rapid development in the past, such as the lack of money and manpower, will completely vanish. Rather than call the Magical Beast Territory a territory, the area might as well be a massive Magical Beast Empire, a large empire able to resist any of the other factions!

Compared to the large-scale expansion of his territory, Yang Ling focused more on the breakthrough in his abilities. After narrowly surviving the tribulation, he had not only become a powerful Divine-level Expert, but he had also fulfilled his wish of breaking through the bottleneck to become a Soul Wizard, his abilities improving by leaps and bounds. He had laid a solid foundation for the exploration of the dangerous and mysterious Graveyard of Deities and Demons, as well as for his search for traces of Ancient Wizards in the other dimensions in the future.

“Rodriguez, head to the Gold Coast immediately. You have to get a clear picture of the situation there as fast as possible.” Yang Ling called for an urgent meeting the moment he returned to Wissen Castle.

With the sudden expansion of his territory, the rest of the areas were fine, but the Gold Coast was a problematic area. Even though the Church and the Borg family had no choice but to hand over the resource-rich Gold Coast under the pressure of the God of War Raymond, they had been operating there for several hundred years. Yang Ling knew that they would definitely not cooperate with him obediently, even if he was thinking on his toes.

“Hehehe, don’t worry, Sir!”

The Corpse Wizard King cackled loudly, instinctively licking his dry lips like a vampire. The more difficult and challenging his mission was, the more excited the Corpse Wizard King became. During the course of the great battle, he had secretly consumed the Blood Essences and souls of many knights, Spellcasters, and missionaries of the Church, his abilities improving drastically. The hope of him advancing to the divine level was getting greater and greater.

“Goode, I’ll hand over the matters within the territory to you. After this, I have to head back and train for a period of time!” After instructing Goode, Ashnamov, and the rest, Yang Ling took out a few drops of Black Crystal Marrow from within his Space Ring that he had reserved and gave them to Sofia, Yuna, and Alice, then instructed them to seize the time to train. After leaving quickly, Yang Ling prepared to shut himself in and train.

After the great battle, Yang Ling got a strong sense of the cruel reality in the Tailun Continent, where the strong reigned supreme.

If not for his powerful Magical Beast Army, if not for him, fortunately, advancing to the divine level, there was no way that the Magical Beast Territory would be able to receive such a large piece of territory, nor would he be able to have his share of the core benefits in the continent. If he wanted to obtain even more benefits, he had to obtain even stronger abilities. Otherwise, there was no room for negotiation. In fact, he might not even be able to keep his current benefits.

The Graveyard of Deities and Demons is going to open in two months. He had to seize the time to stabilize his abilities at the divine level and learn even stronger laws, as well as wield even more powerful Soul Wizard Techniques. After confirming the general direction of his territory’s development, the specifics could be settled by Goode, Ashnamov, and the rest of the group.

“That’s right, Goode, have you moved all of your family members to the Magical Beast Territory?” Before he stepped out of the room, Yang Ling had a thought as he looked at Goode’s white hair. Over this period of time, even though he knew from Orlando and the rest that Goode was using the strength of the Magical Beast Territory to save a large number of his family members, Yang Ling had not personally asked Goode for any specifics.

“Sir, using your reputation, most of my family members have been saved successfully. Many of the nobles and large merchant associations gave me their full support, and Miss Harribell has also helped me a great deal several times. None of the factions dared to stop me, but…” The white-haired Goode’s eyes turned red, hesitating for a moment before saying, “The whereabouts of my granddaughter Alicia who loved to cling by my side back then is still unknown. I cannot find her, no matter how hard I tried!”

Thinking about his granddaughter Alicia who would cling by his side from the moment she learned how to walk, thinking about how his family members had to wander outside and spent their days being tortured, Goode teared up. However, even though he could not find the whereabouts of Alicia, he was already very happy that he managed to save a large number of his family members. He was full of gratitude for Yang Ling!

Without Yang Ling’s reputation, without the strong support of the Magical Beast Territory, who knows how long it would take for him alone to save his tortured family members!

“Goode, release a nine-star mission at the Hunter Association from today onward and offer a heavy reward for finding Alicia!” Yang Ling deliberated for a moment before saying, “Orlando, make a trip to the Dark Association and the Troop Association and get the help of Elder Klive and Elder Faern. Use the strength of the Dark Association and the Troop Association to search for the whereabouts of Alicia together!”

“Yes, Sir!” Orlando received his orders and left.

“Thank you, Sir!” Goode was extremely moved as he saw Orlando’s rapidly leaving figure.

Ever since the Hunter Association had been set up, there had never been a nine-star mission issued. To think that Yang Ling would not only break that record for him, spending a large fortune to search for the whereabouts of his granddaughter, but he also gathered the help of the Dark Association and Troop Association using his connections to search for her together!

“Goode, stand up, you have to actively inform me if you face any difficulties in the future!” Looking at the white-haired Goode, seeing his top tactician become this haggard for his territory, Yang Ling spoke as he personally helped Goode up.

“Brother Yang, Ashnamov frequently cannot sleep at night because of his sealed wife. After having advanced to the divine level, do you think that you could now…” Looking at Ashnamov by the side, wanting to speak yet hesitating, the sensitive Yuna had a thought, remembering his wife, who was also a Foxman like her. She wondered if Yang Ling had a way to release the seal now.

The sealed Sylvia?

Looking at the dejected Ashnamov, then seeing the necklace on his neck, Yang Ling quickly remembered his pitiful wife. He deliberated for a moment before saying, “Ashnamov, after having advanced to the divine level, there should not be too much of a problem, in theory, to release the seal within the necklace. However, because I had just advanced to this level, I am still unable to control my powers expertly. I should be even more confident after I train for a dozen days more, do you think…”

As a Great Soul Wizard, Yang Ling’s knowledge of souls was far superior to anyone present. The Soul Summoning Spell was not almighty. The longer one has been sealed, the more dangerous it would be for the person, and he might even cause fatal damage if he was careless. Back when he was saving the frozen clansmen of the female pirate Margaret, there were a few who had unfortunately become lunatics.

Even though he had broken through the bottleneck to become a Soul Wizard and, in theory, had abilities that were strong enough to release Sylvia’s seal, however, as a precaution, it was safer to train for a moment before taking action.

“Sir, no problem, I can wait, I can wait no matter how long it takes!” Hearing that Yang Ling finally had a way to save his beloved Sylvia, Ashnamov groveled before Yang Ling in excitement. He would pay any price if he could save his beloved wife, much less wait a few more days.

“Ashnamov, don’t worry, it is now time for you to prepare a few gifts for your wife!” After personally helping the general Ashnamov up, Yang Ling smiled as he consoled him. He then left, seizing the time to train.

After having absorbed a large amount of milky-white divinity, his Wizard Core pushed out magnificent Wizard Power with every pulse, continuously circulating around his body following an obscure path. Every muscle, every inch of his skin, was strengthened to an unprecedented degree. Even if he stood there without moving, the sharp claws of the Dark Dragon King could no longer leave a trace on his naked body. In terms of close combat ability, the Dark Dragon King and Giant Ape King was not a match for him even if they took him on together. Unknowingly, he had become a top-notch Wizard Warrior.

Sitting cross-legged on the Great Wizard Altar, Yang Ling could sense every movement within a radius of several hundred miles around the Wissen Castle even without the use of his Tree Eyes ability or patrolling Magical Beasts. His Divine Knowledge had become stronger than it had ever been in the past. Through his five element evasion techniques, he was able to move from the Wissen Castle to Black Water City rapidly and back even without the Teleportation Formation. Both the Ice-sealing Domain and gravity space had become more than ten times stronger. His long-range attacks and close combat abilities had also improved substantially.

After successfully advancing a level, his body had undergone an obvious transformation, while the changes in the Wizard Pagoda’s Space was even more alarming. Even though he had already mentally prepared himself, Yang Ling still got a huge shock when he entered the Wizard Pagoda’s Space.

The entire Wizard Pagoda’s Space had increased tens of times, even hundreds of times. The sea, forest, plains, desert… All of them spanned tens of thousands of miles, and he could not see the end to them even if he flew up high into the air. In the plains, cows and sheep were chasing each other to their heart’s content. In the sky, birds flew freely…

The changes in the Wizard Pagoda’s Space made Yang Ling extremely surprised, but the basketball-sized orb of lightning in front of the Wizard’s Pagoda shocked him greatly!

Whir…

The lightning ball whirred loudly, terrifying arcs of lightning appearing from time to time, each harboring an alarming amount of energy. Flora and fauna nearby had been burnt to a crisp, and no Magical Beasts dared to get close.

Could this be a ball of lightning that harbored all of the energy from the Lightning God Tribulation?

Thinking about the pagoda-shaped mark that devoured the last attack of the Lightning God Tribulation at the critical moment, then looking at the Wizard’s Pagoda, which now had a thinner amount of white fog, Yang Ling had a thought, cautiously stepping toward the lightning ball. The Lightning God Tribulation was terrifying, with even Mid-level Deities like the Chief Elder of the Dark Association not daring to take it head-on. However, as long as he could utilize this ball of highly concentrated energy to its fullest potential, it would definitely be much more beneficial than obtaining a Divine Weapon. In fact, he might be able to greatly accelerate the rate in which he learned the Law of Lightning!
