Chapter 668: Cage

After the Life Soul Bead was set on the Wizard Pagoda, the pagoda emitted silver radiance and released a large amount of white mist. The mist’s scope expanded quickly by severalfold. The white mist’s density was the same as before, but its energy went through a qualitative change. If one took just a single breath of it, his mind would relax, and his spirits would be roused.

Roar!

A muffled and strong roar emanated from the Wizard Pagoda’s interior, and it was accompanied by a tyrannical desolate beast’s aura. The aura engulfed the whole Wizard Pagoda’s dimension like a storm, and all Magical Beasts’ bodies shivered. They instinctively detected a superior being’s wave of pressure, and it was a terrifying wave of pressure that they couldn’t withstand.

The pagoda’s peak among the clouds shone with sparkling silver light. It was engulfed by mist, and indistinct roars emanated from it.

If one observed the pagoda from afar, the shining silver Wizard Pagoda would be faintly discernible among the dense white mist, and it would seem like an ethereal and mysterious object from a wonderland. The picture of the golden dragon with five paws on the pagoda’s peak was faintly discernible. The dragon bared his fangs, brandished his claws, and let out indistinct roars. It seemed like a living being that would shortly rush out!

“Life Soul Bead. It turns out that this was the Wizard Pagoda’s soul.” When Yang Ling saw this shocking sight and detected the Wizard Pagoda’s qualitative change, he cried in surprise. He didn’t expect that he would inadvertently find a priceless treasure like the Life Soul Bead.

After the Wizard Pagoda went through this unusual change, the amount of Wizard Power and Soul Energy within his body didn’t change, but he still suddenly got a peculiar feeling. Even if he closed his eyes, he could detect all movements in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension.

On the distant sea, a group of Sea Tribe’s members was building a caste at the seabed, and they set up many waterproof Magical Formation Spells. On a primitive forest that stretched as far as the eye could see, a hunter lay motionless on the ground and glared nervously at a clouded leopard that approached it. On a desolate land, wheat grass was germinating, and it broke through the soil, which had been softened by rain. It emerged slowly and eagerly breathed fresh air.

Control over the world! Yang Ling suddenly felt like he could overlook all beings and control everything within his grasp. His Divine Consciousness could easily engulf the whole Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, and he could clearly detect all beings’ movements. He also felt for a moment that he was fused with the whole world.

“If I can practice one day to the peak of the Wizard God Stage and achieve another breakthrough, then which Stage will I reach?” Yang Ling was full of expectations for the mysterious Wizard Pagoda.

The Wizard Pagoda had seven floors, and he still hadn’t opened the last two floors. No one knew what was within those two floors. The obelisks on the first five floors either recorded powerful Wizard Spells or mysterious and abstruse Restriction Spells. The higher he went, the higher the level of the Wizard Spells recorded, and practicing them would also become more difficult. But, once he grasped them, he would discover that they possessed great might.

As Yang Ling experienced with his senses this fantastic feeling, he sat cross-legged and started reading the Wizard Mantra in silence. His mind was quite clear, and he started studying the supreme Wizard Spell, which he could use to control the world. A day and then another quickly passed by. He didn’t pay attention to anything else, and he didn’t detect the elapse of time.

“Huh? Rodriguez, look over there. The lord has…”

“Hush! Lower your voice and leave. Pass down the order and forbid everybody from approaching the Lord. You should be careful. Don’t ever disturb the lord’s practice.”

At an unknown time, the Giant Ape King suddenly discovered that Yang Ling’s body had turned transparent, and it gradually disappeared strangely. But, after a short while, Yang Ling’s body appeared again before it disappeared a second time.

The Giant Ape King was stunned and cried in alarm. As for the Corpse Wizard King, he was also stunned, but after he came back to his senses, he retreated far away with the crowd to avoid disturbing Yang Ling’s practice.

Swoosh!

After an unknown amount of time, a cold wind blew over, and Yang Ling slowly opened his eyes. He suddenly got an idea, and ten fine lighting bolts appeared at his fingertips. They let out a sizzling noise and hovered around like fog and clouds.

Sizzle!

Yang Ling let out a soft shout and fired the lightning bolts at his fingertips. As a ‘sizzling” noise echoed out, the ten lightning bolts accurately hit wild geese that had just flown atop his head. The bolts were very swift, and even the powerful Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others couldn’t follow the bolts with their eyes, let alone ordinary people. Ten wild geese could be seen falling to the ground with a rumble. What was weirder was that the wild geese seemed safe and sound, and they didn’t have any external injuries.

“Huh? What is the matter?” The Giant Ape King picked up several wild geese that lay motionless on the ground. He was confused by this, and he couldn’t quickly understand what had happened.

“You will get an answer by observing their insides?” Yang Ling chuckled and released another dozen thin lightning bolts and instantly struck the remaining wild geese. This time, the Corpse Wizard King and others opened their eyes wide, but they still couldn’t follow the lightning bolts with their eyes.

After the Giant Ape King used his fingernail to tear open a wild goose’s belly, he discovered that its internal organs had turned into a mash, and he couldn’t help but cry in alarm. “Oh my God! How is this possible? The surface of their bodies didn’t suffer any harm, but their internal organs ended up like this.”

“I didn’t just instantly melt its internal organs. I destroyed its soul. Good, pretty good.” Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction. The Wizard Power and Soul Energy within his body didn’t change, but his control ability got a qualitative leap. This was the same lightning bolt as before, yet its might was higher than before by manifold.

This practice session lasted just a short month, yet he still got more profound insights into the Soul Wizard Spells and comprehended more things. He also got more insights into the Lightning Law, and he got skilled in using it.

Yang Ling circled around the new Wizard Pagoda several times before stopping next to the colossal Golden Roc. After the Golden Roc absorbed a large amount of the white mist emitted by the Wizard Pagoda, its injurious state turned for the better, and its heartbeat became steady. Its body also emitted intense Energy Ripples, which only grew stronger with time. It would also frequently twitch its eyelid, and it seemed like it would shortly awaken.

“Wandering Golden Roc. I wonder what kind of strong power it will get after all of its injuries recover and it awakens.” Yang Ling thought back to the Abyssal Demon Lord’s terrifying power, as well as the Wandering Sword Venerable, who could easily create spatial fissures with his hands. He was full of expectation for this Golden Roc.

According to the Old Pharaoh King’s memory, the Golden Roc could travel freely among spatial turbulence, and its speed was higher than the Purple Sky Condor by tenfold. It seemed like it possessed a Wandering Divine Beast’s power, but no one knew for sure the extent of its power. If it really possessed Wandering Divine Beast’s power, this would be the best, and getting it would be better than taming several hundred ordinary God-Level Magical Beasts. The whole Magical Beast Army’s power would be raised greatly with the addition of a Wandering Divine Beast, and the Magical Beast Divine Branch would be truly formed.

The Blood Angel Ophelia muttered to herself before letting out a sigh. She didn’t dare to disturb Yang Ling’s practice, but they were getting closer to the Plane Channel’s closure time, and she was afraid they wouldn’t get there in time, even if they set off immediately. “Lord, the Plane Channel leading back to Tailun Continent will be closed shortly. You should look into this.”

“If it’s not possible, we’ll just have to stay in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils for one thousand years before going back.” Yang Ling let out a hollow laugh. He had gained many benefits in this practice session, but he didn’t expect that he would waste a whole month in it. Additionally, he didn’t know the outside world’s situation. It was unknown whether they could leave the Demon Hall, let alone go back to the Plane Channel.

If the Abyssal Demon Lord guarded the Demon Hall persistently, then their team would probably be stranded forever in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, and this would be really so terrible.

The Giant Ape King wore an anxious look and put his fingers out to start counting how many days a thousand years had. “A thousand years. If I count the number of days in a thousand years with my fingers, then how many days must I spend to finish counting them?”

“I will go out to take a look at the situation. You should seize the time to train,” Yang Ling instructed them before wearing the Ice-Sealing Armor, casting the Ground Protection Spell, and making preparations for the worst situation possible before carefully teleporting out of the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. He went back to the gloomy Demon Hall!

Swoosh!

The Demon Hall was as gloomy as before, and the strange green flame burning atop the altar seemed more peculiar among the boundless darkness. A chilly wind was blowing there, and it was unknown what its source was. The place was chilly and had a burnt odor. But it was fortunate that Yang Ling didn’t discover the Abyssal Demon Lord’s trails and could heave a sigh of relief.

A thick layer of dust was amassed on the ground, and there were some black spots among the yellow dust that emitted a peculiar burnt odor. It seemed like these were marks were left behind by the numerous wanderers who were burned to death. Only some Godheads and a few Divine Weapons and other special objects were left behind. There wasn’t a corpse or a single bone left. They were burned cleanly!

“Huh? God-Slaughtering Arrows?”

After Yang Ling took several steps inside, he inadvertently discovered an indistinct scarlet light, and when he walked over to take a look, he discovered a crossbow, which was in the hand of the old man in luxurious clothes from Longbarton Divine Branch. He looked around carefully and discovered a bag of arrows, as well as several Dragon Head Rings, in the vicinity. It seemed like the old man in luxurious clothes and his guards had all died.

There were Divine Weapon and precious Dragon Head Rings among the dust, and there was also an altar that was built wholly with Moon Soul Stones. After Yang Ling observed the altar in the depths of the hall and detected the tremendous energy contained within the Moon Soul Stones, his eyes lit up. He didn’t expect that so many precious treasures would be left after the great disaster. After Yang Ling ascertained that there wasn’t any danger, he waved his hand and summoned the Corpse Wizard King, Blood Angel Ophelia, and others. He instructed them to search the hall for the treasures scattered in it. One is bound for good fortune after surviving a great disaster!

The crowd quickly managed to find a lot of good stuff. Yang Ling couldn’t help but sigh and say inwardly that they hadn’t made this trip in vain. He didn’t just manage to inadvertently get the Life Soul Bead that changed the Wizard Pagoda. He got so many precious treasures, too. But, when he sat cross-legged on the ground and was about to use his powerful Divine Consciousness to scan the whole island, he discovered an awful matter. It seemed like a strange Magical Formation Spell was set up on the whole Demon Hall, and even though he used all the skills up his sleeve, his Divine Consciousness wasn’t able to seep out, and he also couldn’t use teleportation. It seemed like the whole Demon Hall had turned into a cage isolated from the outside world.

“What should we do? Could it be that we’ll be forever stranded here?”

After Yang Ling tried for a long time but still couldn’t leave, his heart sank. He didn’t expect that the Abyssal Demon Lord would set up this Magical Formation Spell. The people outside couldn’t get inside, and the people inside couldn’t go out. It was no wonder that he didn’t lay an ambush and didn’t leave any guards.
