Chapter 747: Soul Eater Realm
As the gem at the top of the staff burst out with dazzling light, everything around it suddenly lost its brilliance, and at the moment of the light explosion, hundreds of dark blue light arrows shot out, and the light arrows emitted strange and inexplicable magic fluctuations, as if constantly changing between illusory realities.
Seeing the appearance of the hundreds of light arrows and feeling the power of the virtual and real transformation on the light arrows, everyone couldn't help but be shocked. Everyone present is a legendary powerhouse, and maybe not all of them have been exposed to soul magic, but they are no strangers to this absolutely headache-inducing soul arrow in soul magic.
Although the soul arrow is presented in front of everyone's eyes in the form of light arrows, it is actually as if it exists in another illusory space. No matter how strong the armor is, no matter how powerful the magic shield is, it can't stop the soul arrow, because the target of its attack is not the human body, but the human soul.
Soul magic can be said to be the weirdest magic in the world, maybe it doesn't have the power to destroy the world, but the attack on the soul can always be unguardable, and its difficulty is even higher than that of undead magic. However, in the world of Anriel, there are not many people who actually learn soul magic. This is not because soul magic is not strong enough, but it is not possible for everyone to learn soul magic, and only those who have some kind of abnormality in their own soul can learn to use soul magic.
So not to mention the others, even the other two leaders of the Dark Blade were extremely surprised that Stefan used soul magic. When this soul arrow appeared, only two people still had calm expressions. As Stefan's father, Borg had already heard Stefan talk about his adventures in the Saren Abyss, and it was not surprising that his son had obtained the inheritance of the Lord of Souls, so he was able to use soul magic.
And in the face of the attack of the soul arrow, Lin Li actually knew better, this was not so much Stefan's power, but the power that really came from the soul master. In the moment before Stefan made his move, Lin Li had clearly felt that the aura on Stefan's body had completely changed, and he had become exactly the same as Mephisto, the Lord of Souls. Although Mephisto has not yet devoured Stefan's soul, now Stefan's shot is largely under the control of Mephisto.
For Lin Li, Mephisto hated more than Stefan. As the soul lord of the Saren Abyss, it is a great shame that he was actually ruined by a humble human calculation and thousands of years of hard work, not only did he not regain the throne of the monarch, but his body was shattered and sealed again, which is simply a great shame.
Therefore, this time, Mephisto used all his strength at the beginning, and he was bound to kill Lin Li in an instant. Of course, venting resentment is only one thing, and more importantly, Mephisto also has to get back the soul fragment that he was sealed away from. Although he has now been reborn through Stefan's body, if those soul fragments can be retrieved, it will definitely greatly improve his strength.
The Soul Arrow was just the beginning, and at the same time as the Soul Arrow was fired, Mephisto's unique Soul Devouring Realm also unfolded in an instant through Stefan's body, enveloping Lin Li in the realm before the Soul Arrow could be shot.
As the Soul Devouring Realm unfolded, countless painful wails suddenly sounded in the space enveloped by the realm. It was the soul that the Lord of Souls had devoured with the Soul Devouring Realm for thousands of years. These countless souls have been suffering from the black flames of the Saren Abyss all the time, and the never-ending pain has caused their wails to fill the entire Soul Devouring Realm.
Like the Soul Arrow, the Soul Eater Realm is still aimed at the human soul. No matter how powerful ** they have, a person's soul is extremely fragile, and even a strong person in the legendary realm may not be able to escape the fate of Shen Lun in this soul devouring realm. Perhaps if you are not careful, you may be swallowed by this terrible soul devouring realm and become one of those countless wailing souls.
Even the people who were outside the Soul Eater Realm, everyone's faces couldn't help but show a solemn look on their faces at this time, and the wails coming from the Soul Eater Realm, although they were not aimed at themselves, still made people feel their souls shake. No one thought that the young man who was temporarily added by Borg, whose strength was only the Great Magician, would actually show such amazing strength at this time.
However, this is not the end, almost at the same time as the Soul Eater Realm unfolded, Stefan, or Mephisto, the Lord of Souls, immediately unleashed his strongest method, the talent Magic Soul Storm.
In the sky of the Soul Devouring Realm, the dark clouds were ignited in an instant, and the blue-blue soul fire burned the entire sky, like a sea of fire hanging upside down. On the ground, Stefan's whole body was enveloped in soul fire, and maniacal laughter continued to be heard from it. At his feet, the soul flame spread rapidly like a sea of fire. The wailing in the Soul Eater realm also became more poignant at this moment, and the wailing was full of negative emotions such as pain, anger, and despair, which hit the depths of people's souls.
In the burning sky, the soul flames swirled in the sky, forming a huge whirlpool. Countless brighter cyan and blue electric snakes jumped and flowed in the soul flames, and gathered together to fall from the sky, forming pillars of thunder and lightning that connected heaven and earth. Pillars of thunder and lightning, under the traction of the whirlpools in the sky, constantly rotated and moved, making the entire space like a huge thunder and lightning cage.
In the Dark Throne, Mephisto, the Lord of Souls, once cast a soul storm to devour the Lord of Darkness in one fell swoop. However, despite the power of the Lord of Darkness, the Dark Throne is a magical realm created by the Dragon of Destruction. Under the suppression of the Dark Throne, the Soul Storm was greatly weakened, and Mephisto had just regathered his body and had not yet regained his strength in his prime, so he was slashed by the Dark Lord with a sword.
But now it is different, without the suppression of the Dark Throne, and Mephisto has been reborn with the help of Stefan's body, and his strength has been greatly restored. The current soul storm is even more powerful than it was before, and even if the Lord of Darkness appears in it, I am afraid that it will not escape the fate of being devoured.
In that almost crazy laughter, Stefan manipulated the soul storm that seemed to engulf the entire heaven and earth, followed closely behind the soul arrow, and quickly swept towards Lin Li.
From Stefan to Soul Arrow, to Soul Eater Realm, to cast Soul Storm, everything is just a blink of an eye. Although Stefan, who has the inheritance of the Lord of Souls, was already a little dismissive of Lin Li's strength, he still used all his strength to make a move. He wants to make the other party not have the slightest power to fight back, he wants to see the despair in the other party's eyes, and he wants everyone to know who is the real genius.
Although Stefan had just stepped into the Legendary Realm, and his opponent was already a Legendary Mage of the twenty-first level, in Elder Randy's heart, there was no suspense about victory or defeat. With the specific nature of soul magic, the combination of the Soul Devouring Realm and the Soul Storm is definitely not something that a twenty-first-level mage can compete with, and that Ferre mage can be said to be in a catastrophe this time.
However, although he had foreseen Lin Li's defeat, Elder Randy gently put his hands behind his back and looked at everything that was happening in the Soul Devouring Realm with a calm face, without the slightest intention of stopping it.
Although Lin Li had detoxified the elves such as Princess Eluni, which was a big problem for Elder Randy, it was just a transaction. Elder Randy didn't bother about losing face, and although the star-scarred robe was heart-wrenching, it wasn't a reason for him to stand idly by. As the eighth elder of the Emerald Council of the Elven Kingdom, all the decisions made by Elder Randy must be premised on the interests of the elves. Even if Lin Li really had some great kindness to the elves, for the benefit of the elven clan, Elder Randy would not make a move at this time.
Elder Randy was well aware of the relationship between the Dark Blade and the Marfa family, and he was also well aware of the important role that Lin Li could play in these two forces. Lin Li leaned towards the Marfa family, which was something anyone with a discerning eye could see, maybe before this, Lin Li might not have completely sided with the Marfa family, but since Stefan's move, the Dark Blade has become the common enemy of Lin Li and the Marfa family.
Lin Li is not a generous person, this Elder Randy deeply understands, if Lin Li walks out of the Haiga Mountains alive, it is conceivable that he will inevitably join the Marfa family to launch an all-out revenge against the Dark Blade. But the Dark Blade is the collaborator of the elven clan all along, and that is definitely not something that Elder Randy wants to see, because that will cause a lot of damage to the interests of the elf clan.
From the moment the soul storm appeared, the strength that Stefan displayed shocked everyone. Especially as an old rival of the Dark Blade, Sein's eyes showed a deep look of worry.
The contradiction between the Marfa family and the Dark Blade is a vendetta accumulated over many years, and it is also an irreconcilable contradiction related to the development of the family. And in this relationship, the Marfa family has always been in a passive disadvantage, and the three legendary powerhouses of the Dark Blade have put Sein, who is the only pillar of the Marfa family, under pressure far beyond ordinary people can imagine.
Sain once pinned his hopes on Hutton, hoping that his proud disciple would be able to step into the legendary realm one step earlier, so that the Marfa family could lift up a little in the scale of strength. However, this hope of his has not yet been achieved, and a fourth legendary powerhouse has appeared in the Dark Blade.
And what's even more unbelievable is that the strength that Stefan showed at this time is not at all like a person who has just stepped into the realm of legends. Just looking at the unfolded Soul Devouring Realm, the rules of the soul contained in it were obviously far beyond the limit that a person who had just entered the Legendary Realm could comprehend. And the release of the soul storm was not a trace of delay, and it was as skilled as a real talent.
Sein wanted to help Lin Li, but the three legendary powerhouses of the Dark Blade were eyeing him, so he didn't have a chance to make a move. Among these people present, the only one who had the ability to stop Stefan was probably Elder Randy on the elven side. Whether it is Elder Randy's great strength or the relationship between the elves and the Dark Blade, he is the most suitable person.
However, Sein's eyes fell on the elven side, and he was disappointed to see that Elder Randy was putting his hands behind his back, and he had no intention of stopping him. Indeed, the collaborators of the elves have always been the Dark Blade, and at this time, it is already unimaginable that they do not join forces with the Dark Blade, how can they help the Ferray mages who are close to them.
However, Sein's guess is not complete, and the elves have learned a lot from humans, the most important of which is balance. Elder Randy knew very well that for the elves, the stalemate between the Marfa family and the Dark Blade was the most advantageous. Whoever dominates, although it will not pose a threat to the elves, will affect the dominance of the elves in the future cooperation.
Judging from this aspect alone, it seems that Elder Randy should make a move, after all, in the current situation, four legendary powerhouses have appeared in the Dark Blade, and they have completely overwhelmed the Marfa family in terms of strength. However, through contact with Lin Li, Elder Randy knew very well that this was definitely not an easy person to control, and instead of letting Lin Li play the role of balancing the Dark Blade and the Marfa family, it was better to wipe it out and let the elves balance the strength of the two families.
At this moment, in Stefan's Soul Devouring Realm, the hundreds of soul arrows and the mighty soul storm were already close to Lin Li, as if they were about to be completely engulfed in the next moment. Stefan even stopped laughing wildly, waiting for the screams to reach his ears, whether it was for Stefan or Mephisto, it would be the most wonderful enjoyment in the world.
However, in an instant, a black and white realm of light and darkness suddenly erupted around Lin Li's body, and there were no other colors in the field. Black shadows and white light constantly collided and fused, converging into countless angels of light and darkness, flapping their black and white wings, flying around the forest.
And with the flying of the angels of light and darkness, the forest of light and darkness realms also expanded without scruples in the soul devouring realm. Those souls who had been tormented by the black flames of the Salen Abyss for countless years in the Soul Devouring Realm stopped their wails abruptly, and let out a sigh of relief under the purification of the white light.
The hundreds of soul arrows that were overwhelming and unavoidable disappeared into this black and white world the moment they shot into the realm of light and darkness, like dust falling into the water, without even stirring up the slightest ripple.
This sudden change surprised everyone, and the strange and unguardable soul arrow disappeared silently. And the black and white magic realm is beyond everyone's imagination, even though they know that it means the power of the rules of light and darkness. But it is precisely because of this that they cannot believe what is in front of them even more.
