Chapter 1093: Magical Crystal Seal
As expected, just when the power of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars was about to blast at Ujfalusi and Norfeller, a figure not far in front of them suddenly flashed and appeared in the void. It was Asgor that had just disappeared. Asgor was obviously planning to kill Ujfalusi and Norfeller, who were the weaker ones, before turning around to deal with Lin Li and Connoris.
Asgor, which had just appeared in the void at this time, did not seem to have just resisted the Eye of the Ancient Demon. After all, Connoris was still far behind him in level. If Connoris had already stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, it would have definitely been put through huge suffering even if he was only in the initial stages.
However, although Asgor dared to deal with Connoris’ Eye of the Ancient Demon, it dared not underestimate the power of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars at all. After all, Lin Li’s current method of using the seven pieces of the debris of the stars was probably just to maximize their power without the Stars of Fury.
Sensing the terrifying aura that was coming from behind, Asgor had no choice but to give up the weak prey in front of him as it once again flashed into the void. It even had the intention of making Lin Li kill his allies by mistake.
However, Lin Li was already a high-level Sanctuary powerhouse, after all, and his mastery of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars had reached the extreme. How could he possibly have made such a low-level mistake? The seven pieces of the debris of the stars surged out with a loud roar, and were about to hit Ujfalusi and Norfeller, but they burst apart instantly under Lin Li’s manipulation, and the seven types of power created a small world that shrouded the void.
Asgor would have never expected that the attack launched by Lin Li would change in such a manner as it was immediately enveloped by the world made of seven pieces of the debris of the stars, and forced out of the void by their power.
The world constructed by the seven pieces of the debris of the stars was like a cage, but as soon as Asgor’s figure appeared, it immediately launched a stormy attack on it. All sorts of magic like fire, ice, and lightning magic spells, as well as meteors, were being blasted at Asgor like a rain of spells. Even ancient wyrms would probably be blasted into dregs by it.
However, in the face of the wave of attacks, Asgor calmed down again after a few loud roars. At the same time, a nether power that came with death aura immediately surged out from Asgor’s body. It then spread out towards the world made of seven pieces of the debris of the stars, and continuously eroded it.
Soon, Lin Li sensed the changes in the small world through his connection with the seven pieces of the debris of the stars. Under the erosion of Asgor’s nether power, the small world began transforming into the Netherworld quickly. At the same time, the small world also gradually broke free from Lin Li’s control.
However, with Lin Li’s current control over the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, even the Immortal King might not be able to take them away from him, let alone Asgor. Since Lin Li had managed to trap Asgor, he naturally wouldn’t let him go so easily. Hence, he immediately activated the seven pieces of the debris of the stars with all his might, and they suppressed the struggling Asgor.
Asgor roared loudly. It turned out that it wasn’t the power of the debris of the stars, but rather that its body suddenly got blasted apart.
Has it been settled just like that? Lin Li couldn’t help but be dumbfounded. In his opinion, even with the full power of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, it probably wouldn’t take a moment for him to deal with Asgor. However, Asgor actually self-destructed before it was at its most desperate state.
“Be careful, it’s not dead yet!” Connoris knew the monster Asgor way better than Lin Li did. Seeing that Lin Li was stunned by Asgor’s self-destruction, he immediately yelled to remind Lin Li.
Indeed, at this very moment, a figure that was even taller than Asgor’s original body but was somewhat illusory emerged from the space outside the world made up of seven pieces of the debris of the stars. It was none other than Asgor which had just self-detonated. Besides, the more surprising thing was that Asgor’s strength did not decrease, and instead it became even stronger than before. Its mana fluctuations were already incredibly close to the peak of the Sanctuary-realm.
That was Asgor’s true strength as a powerful being favored by the God of Death that had an eternally indestructible soul. After being freed from its body, it was in the true form that was the most suitable for using the power of death, just like how a Lich was the most suitable for Necromagic, elemental lifeforms were the most suitable for elemental magic spells, and darkness was the most suitable for Dark Magic. Asgor’s soul was the best form for casting death and Spiritual Magic.
After transforming into its soul form, Asgor obviously did not intend to give Lin Li and the others a chance to adapt to the situation. The simultaneous casting of Roar of The Soul and Withering Death placed Lin Li and his two Undead servants under attack. The Roar of The Soul resounded directly in the depths of Lin Li’s and the others’ souls, making Lin Li feel like his soul was going to be torn apart. On the other hand, Connoris and the others felt even worse.
The Withering Death spell that devoured vitality made Lin Li and the others feel like they had aged instantly, as if they could already see the end of their lives. Although Lin Li was a high-level Sanctuary powerhouse, he could sense his power being reduced greatly like an unstoppable ebbing tide.
After being repaired and perfected by Lin Li, the perfect body created by Highlord Osric actually also showed signs of aging under the Withering Death. There were also tinges of decay coming from Ujfalusi’s and Norfeller’s aura, and the fluctuation of their soul fire became increasingly weaker.
Unlike the others whose power was rapidly weakening, Asgor was clearly getting stronger and stronger, as if it was devouring their power in large amounts. Faced with such a situation, Lin Li knew that he had to stop Asgor. As their power became weaker, their hopes of defeating Asgor became slimmer, and they might really end up dying there.
Lin Li tried hard to bear with the pain of having his soul torn apart while raising the Helios’ Scepter high in his hand. The seven pieces of the debris of the stars that made up the small world were immediately dispersed too. Each of the pieces of the debris of the stars unleashed an even greater power under Lin Li’s urging, as if they were seven suns that were shooting towards Asgor which was in midair.
Under the manipulation of the Stars of Fury, the seven pieces of the debris of the stars would even be able to kill Azardas the Dragon of Destruction that held a divine position. Although Lin Li did not have the Stars of Fury, Asgor was not the Dragon of Destruction, and the power released by the seven pieces of the debris of the stars could even tear the earth apart, let alone Asgor which was only in the form of its soul.
However, it was proven that Lin Li had still underestimated the soul form of Asgor. Although it might be easily torn apart by the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, that could only happen if their power was blasted into its body. Asgor, which was in its soul form, already had the power to travel freely between this world and the underworld, just like how Geresco could use the Void of the Stars to hold his body down in the void. Unless the seven pieces of the debris of the stars that Lin Li controlled could be blasted into the underworld, it would definitely be incredibly difficult to kill Asgor.
However, the underworld was the territory of the God of Death, which was the most powerful among the gods. Only those who had received the blessing of the God of Death and those who were dead would qualify to enter the underworld. In other words, if Lin Li wanted to enter the underworld to kill Asgor, he would probably have to kill himself first.
Lin Li, Connoris, and the others could not attack Asgor in its soul form, but Asgor’s Spiritual Magic and Death Magic posed a huge threat to them. Under Lin Li’s orders, Ujfalusi and Norfeller had withdrawn far from the battlefield. Otherwise, they would probably be dragged into the underworld. Connoris was similarly barely hanging on. After all, his body and soul were not originally matched. He had to continuously suffer the pain of his soul and body getting separated.
Lin Li naturally did not feel good, either. Even those who were not like Connoris could not bear with the pain of having their soul torn apart. In particular, there was some compulsion in Asgor’s attack, and it was as if someone was telling him, “Give up and enter the final refuge. Only then will you be free from all the pain.”
Connoris finally remembered a solution, and immediately yelled at Lin Li, “Magical crystal! Seal it using its magical crystal!”
Hearing Connoris’ reminder, Lin Li came to a sudden realization. Although Asgor’s soul had entered the God of Death’s underworld, its magical crystal was still left in this world after its self-destruction. There had to be Asgor’s Soul Brand in the magical crystal too, and it was probably the key that connected Asgor’s soul to this world.
At the thought of this, Lin Li immediately waved his hand, and the seven pieces of the debris of the stars gave up their attack on Asgor, and flew towards the magical crystal that had just been thrown on the ground. The seven pieces of the debris of the stars intertwined like a net that engulfed the magical crystal with the same seal that Lin Li had seen under Cage Island, which could seal the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction.
When the light of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars was shining the brightest, Asgor, which was attacking Lin Li and Connoris in mid-air, suddenly roared furiously and indignantly, causing a bewildered shadow to float out of Connoris’ body. It was none other than Connoris’ soul that had been shaken out of his body. On the other hand, Lin Li also felt that his control over his body was instantly weakened, and the pain of his soul being separated from his body almost made him give up.
However, at this moment, he saw Asgor’s somewhat illusory figure being entangled and pulled by an invisible force before flying towards the seal made by the seven pieces of the debris of the stars. It was sucked in like mist, and Asgor’s body, which was initially illusory and expanded to a massive size, had turned into a long line, and was sucked into the magical crystal by the seal.
Immediately afterwards, the seven pieces of the debris of the stars began spinning nonstop, and rays of light were shot at the magical crystal in the middle, causing dense and complicated patterns to gradually form on the magical crystal that had pure color. As the light flashed in the end, the magical crystal returned to its original form, and the patterns slowly became invisible.
“Phew.” Lin Li finally let out a long sigh of relief. He was drenched in sweat, not because of how tired he was from casting this seal, but because of the severe pain that his soul was suffering.
Connoris’ soul, which had already been separated from his body, also began to regain its clarity soon after Asgor was sealed. It then darted back into the body. At the same time, Connoris cursed, “Damn it, what is Geresco getting up to do? Does he think he’s the God of Death? He actually raised such a dangerous creature like Asgor here!”
Lin Li did not try to stop Connoris from cursing. Although, in a way, Geresco was his teacher, the battle had made him extremely exasperated. He even wondered if Geresco was part of an animal protection organization because he had collected all the magical beasts in the world!
Lin Li shook his head, stepped forward, and picked up the magical crystal that sealed Asgor. Through the crystal wall of the magical crystal, Asgor’s soul could vaguely be seen struggling and roaring in the magical crystal.
“Okay, let’s look at Asgor’s den. This guy was so difficult to deal with, the passage left by Geresco might be here,” Lin Li said to Connoris and the two Undead servants, who had just flown over, after putting away the magical crystal.
“Let’s hope we can find it here. I don’t want to encounter this kind of perverted monster again. God knows how many monsters like Asgor that psychopath Geresco raised here,” Connoris said with lingering fear. Actually, he had suffered the most during the battle against Asgor. Ujfalusi and Norfeller had been assigned to move out of the battlefield by Lin Li, yet Connoris could only hang on there for dear life. The pain of having one’s soul separated from their body was not something that ordinary people could endure.
Hearing Connoris’s words, Lin Li could only smile bitterly. The pain that came from the depths of one’s soul was indeed an excruciating thing that no one wanted to experience for the second time. However, for the sake of the items that Geresco had left behind and improving his strength again, Lin Li had to bear with it and resign to fate.
After taking a short break to recover some of his mana, Lin Li brought Connoris and his two Undead servants towards the depths of the deep valley. They went all the way to the bottom of the deep valley, and finally saw an ancient-looking door that was made of stone. In the middle of the stone door, there was a curtain of light that made it impossible to see what was on the opposite side. However, he already knew that the stone door was probably the entrance of the passage to the next floor.
