Chapter 1155: Intentional
If it was before, the Envoys of Light could completely ignore attacks like the ones Lin Li
had just launched since they had the light body. However, under the suppression of the incantation chanted by Edmund, the Envoys of Light could no longer cast their light incarnate spell as freely as before. Thus, even the Envoys of Light who were at the peak of the Sanctuary-realm dared not go hard against Lin Li’s magic spells, and had no choice but to be defeated.
However, after Lin Li left, Lin Li’s original opponent was naturally handed over to Poer and Zumar. In the beginning, there were three Sanctuary powerhouses going against three Envoys of Light, but now it was just Poer and Zumar against three Envoys of Light. With Poer’s and Zumar’s strength, they were instantly put in a crisis.
“d.a.m.n it! You did that on purpose!” High Priest Poer dodged the attacks of the Envoys of Light pathetically. There were even some wounds on his body because he had been slit by a sword. He was immediately furious again.
Lin Li didn’t even bother to pay attention to High Priest Poer, and he simply opened his Domain World and chased the Envoy of Light who had been forced down. Just now, he had received a message from Connoris through spiritual contact. The latter hoped that he could take this opportunity to capture the two Envoys of Light.
If this had been in the past, Connoris’ words would have been a joke. The Envoy of Light was a powerhouse who was near the peak of the Sanctuary-realm, not some random beast. Lin Li had put in a large amount of effort to be able to contend with it, and although he seemed to be having an easy time, he knew the dangers that were involved.
However, things were different now. He had no idea what Saint Edmund did to make the power of the Envoys of Light plummet. Besides, it was still continuing to weaken. Although the Envoys of Light were close to the peak Sanctuary-realm, they looked just like runners who had just finished a marathon.
Hence, after hearing Connoris’ request, Lin Li didn’t hesitate, and immediately opened his Domain World, enveloping that Envoy of Light in the Domain World immediately.
However, just after getting the Envoy of Light into his own Domain World, Lin Li immediately felt that something was wrong. After entering his Domain World, the Envoy of Light began to recover rapidly, and he would probably return to full strength again within a few minutes.
That Envoy of Light could also sense the change in his body. Hence, he immediately laughed again, and gibed, “Foolish human, I should really thank you for isolating me from that d.a.m.ned s.p.a.ce.”
The Envoy of Light was still using the ancient t.i.tan language. During the battle just now, he already knew that Lin Li was not in cahoots with that group of people who claimed to be believers. Hence, he didn’t expect Lin Li to know such an ancient language too.
However, when Lin Li heard the words of the Envoy of Light, he immediately understood what the issue was. Although he did not know how to cast the secret spell that Edmund used, he could make his Domain World simulate the exact same environment out there. After all, in his own Domain World, he was the deity of the world, and there was no need for him to use an incantation to use his Laws at all. He could change everything with a mere thought.
Lin Li immediately dispersed his mental strength, and spread it outside the Domain World. In the blink of an eye, he could see all the changes in that s.p.a.ce clearly. As a high-ranking Sanctuary powerhouse, he had already had a considerable level of mastery of the World Laws. It was not much of a problem for him to detect the subtle changes.
Immediately afterwards, there began to be changes in Lin Li’s Domain World. The Envoy of Light, who was still waiting to regain his power and then seize this Domain World, suddenly felt the previous changes happening to his body again. He instantly knew that what he had said just now caused him to be in trouble.
He had a chance to get out of the trap, but because of a moment of complacency, he let his mouth slip. How could the arrogant Envoy of Light stand it? After feeling ashamed and furious, the Envoy of Light immediately maximized his power, and constantly wrecked Lin Li’s Domain World, seemingly trying to destroy it before he lost power.
However, Lin Li’s Domain World was not a single world that was const.i.tuted by just one or two Laws like those of other Sanctuary-realm powerhouses. In this Domain World, Lin Li had used the seven basic Laws of earth, fire, water, wind, light, darkness, and chaos. Those were the seven basic laws of the real world.
The real Anril was evolved from the seven basic laws of earth, fire, water, wind, light, darkness, and chaos. Although Lin Li’s Domain World could not yet be compared to the real world, its solidity was not something that the Envoy of Light could break. Besides, the Envoy of Light was still in his Domain World, and was subject to considerable restrictions even though it had yet to be incorporated into the laws of the Domain World by Lin Li.
Although Lin Li engulfed the Envoy of Light using the Domain World, it still seemed to people outside that he was fighting the Envoy of Light. That was how incredible Lin Li’s Domain World was. The fact that he had used the basic World Laws was the very reason he could easily simulate the environment of the outside world. Those whose realm did not surpa.s.s his level would not be able to see any changes. Edmund might be able to see something, but Edmund had spent all his energy on casting that secret spell now.
Lin Li continued to fight with the Envoy of Light while keeping his eyes fixed on the other three Envoys of Light. Right from the beginning, he had been very interested in finding out what exactly the Envoys of Light were. Now that Connoris said that he had a use for them, he would naturally catch as many as he could.
At this moment, Edmund, who was in midair, had already reached the final juncture of casting his spell, and a huge illusory G.o.d statue, which was the incarnation of the ancient G.o.d’s chaos willpower that was a sacrifice of the Illuminati’s Chaos Sanctuary, appeared behind his thin and dry body.
The incarnation of the chaos willpower was nearly 100 meters high, and there were two horns on his head, as well as eight arms on his back like he was a spider. He was holding a sharp weapon in each hand: either a sharp sword, a giant axe, a staff made of dragon skull, or the t.i.tan Dragon Spear.
Logically speaking, the Envoys of Light were the divine servants of the ancient G.o.ds, and thus the chaos willpower should be a wisp of the will of the ancient G.o.ds. Hence, there should be no conflict between the two. However, the incarnation of the chaos willpower that Edmund summoned seemed not to remember the existence of the Envoys of Light at all. After the appearance of the incarnation of the chaos willpower, a pair of huge palms quickly formed a secret hand seal in midair. A pale power from the void immediately descended into this s.p.a.ce.
From the moment the incarnation of the chaos willpower appeared, the Envoys of Light had already lost the power to resist. Although they knew that it was only an illusory image, the fear they had towards the ancient G.o.ds came from the bottom of their hearts, and they dared not think of resisting at all.
When the incarnation of the chaos willpower cast the powerful secret spell, the Envoys of Light began shivering while being all huddled up on the ground. They wailed continuously.
At this juncture, the Envoy of Light in Lin Li’s Domain World was not affected by the incarnation of the chaos willpower; hence, he did not behave the same as the three Envoys of Light outside. Lin Li didn’t want to let Edmund and the others find out that he had captured the Envoy of Light, so he immediately simulated an incarnation of the chaos willpower in his Domain World as well. After all, he was the supreme G.o.d in his Domain World, and it would be a piece of cake for him to simulate the chaos willpower.
With the appearance of that incarnation of the chaos willpower in the Domain World, the Envoy of Light also immediately huddled up on the ground like its three other counterparts. He was too weak to resist. At this point, Lin Li also knew that the final moment had arrived, and if he didn’t hurry and seize the opportunity, the other party would probably die and turn into dust.
Indeed, as the incarnation of the chaos willpower cast a spell, the three Envoys of Light outside began to dissipate rapidly like snow in fire. Their bodies, which were initially nearly 10 meters tall, started shrinking while becoming distorted and transparent. They were almost going to disappear.
At the last juncture, Lin Li suddenly opened his Domain World, and pulled the nearest Envoy of Light into it. None of those present noticed that there was any difference between that Envoy of Light and the rest. All they saw were four Envoys of Light howling and shrieking while vanishing entirely.
Indeed, they completely dissipated, and even the two Envoys of Light in Lin Li’s Domain World also vanished without a trace. However, as the creator of the Domain World, Lin Li could totally turn back time in the Domain World, and condense the Envoys of Light again.
After everything was over, Saint Edmund also descended from the sky. He glanced at his team from the Gilded Kingdom, and calmly instructed them to start reorganizing themselves.
However, while everyone else began to rest and regroup, Edmund did not slack off, and instead went to the spot where the Envoys of Light had dissipated. Once again, he chanted an incantation, and the light that had dissipated in s.p.a.ce also began to condense. However, the Envoys of Light did not appear this time, and there was instead just a Solar Sphere that hovered in s.p.a.ce. A blurry figure began to appear in the Solar Sphere.
Upon sight of this, Lin Li immediately thought that Edmund was probably using some kind of secret solution to get some information from the dissipating Envoys of Light. Hence, he immediately strode towards Edmund and looked at the Solar Sphere.
Seeing that Lin Li was walking over to him, Edmund did not avoid anything, and simply nodded, and said, “President Felic, the images in this Solar Sphere are some of the memories possessed by the Envoys of Light. Unfortunately, I don’t have a complete mastery of this secret technique. Hence, I can’t obtain complete information.”
At this point, Lin Li was fully focused on the images in the Solar Sphere. Although it was just like what Edmund said about there being lapses in the scenes in the Solar Sphere, the information revealed still made him secretly surprised. There was an amazing battle displayed in the scene. Although they could not see the parties involved in the battle, the sounds were shocking.
“Saint Edmund, I wonder if you know who the two parties engaged in the battle are?” Lin Li asked, concealing his surprise as if nothing was wrong. In fact, when he asked, he already had a vague speculation that he had to confirm with Edmund.
Looking at the image in the Solar Sphere without even turning around, Edmund said, “It should be the owner of the Envoys of Light. According to the Illuminati’s cla.s.sics, the G.o.d fell into a deep slumber after a battle, I think it should be this one.”
“Just a deep slumber? Is it just sleeping inside this palace?” Although Lin Li’s tone hadn’t changed significantly, his brows were slightly furrowed. He didn’t sense a very powerful aura from that palace, but thinking about what High Priest Poer had said to the Envoys of Light just now, he had to clarify things.
Hearing Lin Li’s question, Edmund hesitated a little, knowing that Lin Li had recalled everything he said to High Priest Poer. Hence, he couldn’t deny it, either. He simply ambiguously answered, “Yes and no.”
“In that case, Saint Edmund, don’t you think your answer doesn’t seem to make much sense? Well then, I will a.s.sume that you came here just to awaken your G.o.d. It’s a shame I don’t believe in your G.o.d, so in order to avoid offending your G.o.d when the time comes, I think it is better for us to leave now.” Lin Li was not trying to spite Edmund into telling the truth. In fact, he already had an answer after seeing his behavior, and thus immediately planned to escape. He was well aware his relationship with the Gilded Kingdom was hostile, and now that they were going to awaken a G.o.d, he obviously had to leave before the G.o.d attacked him!
“Wait a minute,” Edmund hurriedly called out to stop Lin Li. During the battle with the four Envoys of Light just now, he had already witnessed the strength of the Tower of Dusk. How could he let such a powerful helper leave him at this point?
Lin Li had turned around to leave, but after hearing Edmund’s words, he slowly turned around, and said, “Saint Edmund, is there anything else? Or are you planning to force us to stay behind?”
“Hah, President Felic, don’t get the wrong idea. I heard you said just now that you came here to search for a magical weapon. Why are you leaving even though you haven’t found it yet?” Edmund asked, letting out a strained chuckle.
However, Lin Li turned around, and smilingly said, “Saint Edmund, don’t worry about me. We’ve already obtained the Ice Phoenix corpse previously. With that item, our trip was not fruitless. Even if there are bigger gains, I won’t put my life at risk.”
What a joke, those four Envoys of Light are already powerhouses that are close to the peak of the Sanctuary-realm. Their owner must have terrifying strength. It’s probably a terrifying existence that’s already in the realm of the G.o.ds.
