Elite Mages' Academy

Chapter 684: Hopelessness

The short answering session ended there. Asabanor no longer planned on answering any other questions, and Xiao Lin did not plan on asking any either. He already knew what he should do. Of course, the news would definitely cause shocking waves if it spread, but it was already fine, because the dead did not speak.

No matter if it was Xiao Lin, Cheng Ming, Chen Dao, An Luo, or Gu Xiaoyue, or even the British team, Asabanor had never planned on letting any of them leave the place alive.

“Xiao Lin, we absolutely can’t allow him to reach Earth! Absolutely not!” Gu Xiaoyue shouted loudly. All of their expressions were anxious when they saw the Earth, the moon and the Sun form a straight light.

Everyone knew what allowing Asabanor to reach Earth would mean. No matter how weak Asabanor was, to a normal person from Earth, he was an unrivaled existence. With Asabanor’s army of undead, Earth would turn into hell.

Among those people were Gu Xiaoyue’s sister, and Xiao Lin’s family and friends. It did not matter if they decided to stay in the New World or not; the relationships they had were something they could never forget or cast aside.

Without needing anyone else to say anything, Xiao Lin immediately activated his Ruin state. His eyes were determined as he unleashed his Phantom Steps. Using his incredibly quick footwork and the gravity from the blood moon, Xiao Lin seemed to easily leap into the air.

Gu Xiaoyue had quickly used the support spell ‘Wings of Flight’ after regaining her composure, and two faint green wings materialized on Xiao Lin’s back, allowing him to maintain his balance despite the howling winds and debris in the air. It might not have been a high level spell, but it was enough for him.

“Even if you’re in a spirit state, I don’t believe you can stand up to this!” Xiao Lin did not hold anything back in his anger as he unleashed all of the elemental sword aura in his body. It was a strike that had used all of his power, and it turned into a sea of flames, illuminating the whole cemetery. The surrounding undead troops started to cry out in agony and retreat.

“You’re stronger than last time. You really are someone with the power of the laws. You have even more potential than Ivan. If you had enough time, maybe…” Asabanor’s crazed expression had a sliver of curiosity and praise to it, but he did not finish his words because if he agreed that the boy in front of him had potential, he would have to live on. However, in his eyes, Xiao Lin was already a dead man.

Boom!

The tremors on the ground grew even more intense, and massive amounts of stone and soil started to float in the air, slowly revealing a vibrant red color under the ground.

“Despicable creature, what did you do?!” Xiao Lin suddenly stopped his attack, and the flames in the air suddenly dissipated. He could feel the strength in his body start to disappear, and in a moment, he did not seem to even have the power to raise his arm.

What was even more strange was that Xiao Lin ended up in a position where he could do nothing. In the middle of the air, he could not advance, nor could he retreat. Even though there seemed to be an intense gravity coming from the blood moon, on the ground, the red patterns that slowly emerged seemed to unleash an equal amount of force. The two forces clashed and maintained a strange equilibrium.

Chen Dao and the others could finally not be concerned about being sucked into the moon. When the suction beneath their feet started, they fell back to the floor, and could finally let out a sigh of relief. However, the moment of silence was like the calm before the storm.

“This isn’t right!”

“What shocking power!”

“That pervert, what’s he trying to do to Xiao Lin?!”

“We need to think of something!”

The others finally found that something was wrong. In the equilibrium of the two forces, there was a third, massive power that was being unleashed. That power was completely different from the other two, and completely different from anything else they knew. The power did not come in explosive waves, and was more like a drizzle.

The origin of the power was Xiao Lin’s body!

“It’s a God… A God Sealing Array. Asabanor, you really think highly of me. You… You actually used this formation against me!” Xiao Lin looked back in his struggle, and seemed to make out something from the red patterns on the ground as shock appeared on his face.

Under the soil and the graves, there was an extremely big blood-colored magical formation. The scale of the magical formation was unimaginable, and once again confirmed that Asabanor was working with the new dean. No matter who it was, they would never be able to do all of that under the watch of Dawn Academy.

Xiao Lin might not know much about magical formations, but he happened to know about the one in front of him. When he and Silverlight went back to the era of Atlantis, they had used that formation. It was called the strongest sealing technique, and they had sealed Poseidon into the sands of time.

However, he never expected that the formation would appear again in the New World. Despite the tense atmosphere, Xiao Lin could not help but lament in his mind that Earth really had been related to the New World during ancient times. Otherwise, such a formation would not have appeared both in ancient Atlantis and here.

“Oh? You even know of this formation. Even a hundred years ago, only a small amount of people knew about it. It is an ancient formation that has been lost for tens of thousands of years.” Asabanor was surprised yet again, but he quickly regained his calm and smiled coldly. “Since you know, you should know that you can’t escape. You’re mistaken about something though. After I changed the formation, it’s no longer meant for sealing, but breaking seals. It unleashes sealed energy.”

Asabanor had a crazy look on his face. It was the result of his years of research in the Final Lands, and it was finally about to bear fruit. He could not help but say a few more words, “The power of laws. Since the creation of the world, it is the most mysterious form of power. No one is worthy of wielding the powers of creation. Do you understand what I mean? No matter if it’s Ivan, you, or that little girl, you can only hold it, but you can’t wield it because it’s not something that can be controlled. It is merely power that has been sealed, and all of you are only the vessels!

“The power of the laws is a source of unlimited energy! It is a power that can traverse universes. That’s right, I want to use this reverse sealing to unleash the power sealed inside you, and using that power as a source, it will send me and my troops right into your home!

“As for you, if a vessel has sealed up energy that is more than it can take, then the only result is that you will crumble apart like glass. It might be a pity, but this is your end! The power of law is not something you invaders should have!”
