Under the scorching gaze of Sias Sissi and others, the coercion released by Ryan slowly concentrated on the top of the lake in the center of the Cursed Swamp, and those demonic beasts that were still crawling in other areas of the Cursed Swamp just now suddenly felt that the pressure on their bodies had dropped sharply, and the power from the air that was enough to crush themselves countless times disappeared mysteriously, as if it had never appeared, some of these demonic beasts continued to lie motionless on the ground, and some stood up blankly, looking around at a loss, not understanding what was going on.

Now Ryan's power has isolated the area around the lake in the center of the cursed swamp into two different worlds, about ten steps away from the shore of the lake, those demonic beasts have slowly shaken off the pressure they had previously undergone, staggering around, they will probably have to take a while to regain their original state, but within ten steps of the lake's shore, the air is almost condensed into an entity by Ryan's mana, making several unlucky demonic beasts in it feel suffocated, no matter how they struggle, they are still powerless to get rid of this terrible pressure around them。

As if the actual air gradually became distorted, this scene was exactly the same as above the lit bonfire, it was obvious that they were subjected to terrible heat, which was most easily reflected in those demonic beasts in this range, the fur of these unlucky demonic beasts had ignited a faint flame, although the fire did not look vigorous, but there was no black smoke or ashes, the fur and body of the demonic beasts quickly melted into blood under the burning of the flames, and then steamed into the air.

After about a dozen breaths, the air above the lake in the center of the Cursed Swamp finally showed a noticeable flame, the flames burning the air, and gradually approaching the calm surface of the lake below. Looking at the scene in front of them, Sia Sisi and the other three almost unanimously shouted out the name of the forbidden spell released by Ryan: "Horror Drought!"

That's right, this is the power and skill use that Ryan showed in front of his three students, but just a legendary-level fire forbidden spell is not enough to show Ryan's understanding of legendary power, in fact, if he is replaced by the original boyardinas to release the same spell, the entire terrifying drought forbidden spell must have a period of casting time before it takes effect, not Ryan's almost instantaneous release. And once the power of the forbidden spell takes effect, it will destroy everything in the shroud for a few seconds, instead of Ryan now appearing in front of Siassia and her eyes as if it had slowed down tenfold.

It's a pity that Sias and they didn't realize what it meant for Ryan to slow down the speed at which the forbidden spell took effect, and several of them were now completely shocked by Ryan's instantaneous legendary-level fire forbidden spell, but fortunately, Ryan had reminded Shyas before that they should pay attention to their mana fluctuations, which allowed the three little guys who had not even reached the legend to find an entry point for observation, and use the skills of mental power perception that were not skilled enough to understand Ryan's use of magical energy shrouded in the lake in the center of the cursed swamp.

The flames burned in the air and slowly moved downward, and under the gaze of Sias and the others, they finally approached the calm surface of the lake, and a large number of ripples immediately appeared on the surface of the cool lake, spreading towards the shore in the form of circles of ripples. The flames in the air seemed to stop moving when they were roughly close to the surface of the lake, and the distance between the flames and the surface of the water was always about an inch or so, which made the Sias Sissi and them inexplicable, but when Richie keenly noticed that the water level on the shore had obviously abdicated and pointed it out to the other two, everyone realized that it was not that the flames no longer continued to advance, but that the lake water was gradually evaporating under the burning of the flames。

The lake slowly retreated downward, anything exposed outside the lake was burned in the air and evaporated in a very short time under the purification of the flames, those sharp-toothed piranhas that were previously regarded as a great threat by Siassi have been completely agitated, they have avoided the coercive erosion released by Ryan earlier at the bottom of the water, but now when the lake water they rely on for survival slowly recedes, they are also gradually eating away from the area where they can move, some of the fish are relatively close to the lake, as a result, when the lake water around them is evaporated by the flames in the air, the bodies of these sharp-toothed piranhas are also burned by the flames to ashes。

If they had the opportunity to enter the half-dried lake at this time, they would be surprised to find that the remaining lake water was not affected by the scorching flames in the air above, and they still maintained their previous coolness, instead of becoming hot as they imagined, which shows that Ryan's use of power has reached an unbelievable level, even if it is a legendary-level fire forbidden spell, it can be played with like an ordinary fireball technique, and the fire energy that should have been wild and tyrannical is now as gentle and shy as the calm water elemental energy, without Ryan's permission, they don't even do anything to the water that clings to the lake that is out of their reach.

With the sharp drop of the lake, several skeleton warriors wearing the standard armor of the Cassano army appeared from under the water in a daze, before these low-level undead creatures who wandered purely by instinct did not realize what was happening, the armor on their white bone bodies began to turn red and quickly melted, because these skeleton warriors had died, so they did not feel the pain of their bodies being wrapped in molten iron, but the bones of these skeleton warriors could not withstand such high temperatures, and were soon carbonized by the scorching heat and quickly turned into large pools of fly ash spilling lower and lower on the surface of the lake。

The remnants of those skeleton warriors finally fell from the floating water to the dry lake floor, and finally completely merged with the ground, at this time, the water of the entire central lake has been completely transpired and cleaned under the influence of Ryan's fire forbidden spell "Horror Drought", the bottom of the lake that has been soaked for hundreds of years should be very wet, but under the action of the flames burning in the air, it has now become very hard and solid, and countless cracks are filled with it, and the lake bottom ground is crisscrossed until the shore.

In the past, an ancient monster Hydra could live in this lake, which showed the area occupied by the lake and its depth, but now all you can see is the hard ground full of cracks, and the entrance to the ruined palace that towers in the middle of the lake. The exterior of the palace was not much different from what Ryan had seen back then, it was still as shabby, but the cracked walls were devoid of moss, because they had all been destroyed by the magic of the "terrible drought" of Onzo.

Looking at the familiar situation, Emma, who had turned into a puppet golem, had mixed feelings in her heart, and she still clearly remembered that she lived in the Temple of Apocalypse when she was young. It's a pity that all this is completely annihilated under the dark ritual of the undead legion, and the comrades who fought bloodily to defend the temple and those damned undead creatures are now tragically turned into their most disgusted souls, wandering in the depths of the ruins of the Temple of the Apocalypse, if no one can use force to make them completely rest, these strong Templars will remain in their state forever, year after year, day after day.

That kind of scene has made Emma dare not continue to imagine, she has also had this experience for two hundred years, if it were not for the protection of the heart of the ancient tree, maybe Emma would not have waited for Ryan and his party to enter this ruin, she has become the same as those deranged comrades outside, if this is the case, Ryan will definitely kill Emma without mercy, and there will be no more experience of Emma who has become a puppet returning to the place where she lived as a child.

Since Emma has become a cold puppet, she no longer shows pity or melancholy in her eyes now, but Ryan guessed her mind at once when he saw Emma standing in place, so he ignored the fact that Emma was actually taller than herself, and slapped her Mithril on the shoulder a few times, as if he had comforted Emma who was still in a state of revenant.

Emma suddenly came to her senses, she bent down slightly silently, and gave Ryan a warm hug, but didn't say anything, Ryan saw that Emma's mood seemed to improve, so he smiled and said: "Okay, what I should do, I've done it, and then I have to see how well you perform." Well, one thing I have to warn you about is that magic can be greatly suppressed in the ruins of that temple, so be sure to adapt to this change as quickly as possible!"

"Yes!" Xiassi and they shouted loudly together, and then everyone lined up to advance, and stepped into the dry lake bottom, walking towards the entrance of the ruins of the Temple of Apocalypse in the center, because there was no interference, it only took about a few minutes for Xiassi and them to come to the entrance that had collapsed a little outside, and looked at the dark space inside, Xiassi plucked up her courage and was the first to step into the temple, her body immediately had a strange feeling after passing through the defensive magic array that had been destroyed at the entrance, as if she had just taken more than just a small step in and out of the ruins of the temple, or a big step across two different planes of space-time.

Outside the entrance to the temple's ruins, Siassi was shrouded in warm sunlight, and although she was a creature from the underwater world, the not-so-violent sunlight made her feel very happy. However, when Siassi entered the ruins of the temple, her whole body was involuntarily enveloped in a cloud of coldness, and she was surrounded by endless darkness, and she had to rely on the magical light source created by illumination to barely see the area in front of her.
