Howl...

Hydra dived downwards from high in the sky while letting out a roar. Not willing to admit defeat, and unwilling to believe that she would lose so easily to Yang Ling who was bare-fisted, she gritted her teeth and launched a ferocious attack. But, even as she tried her best, every time she entered the great fog around Yang Ling, her power and speed immediately decreased greatly, and her head also got a shock. The resulting conclusion could be known without thinking!

Not only did she not defeat Yang Ling, she even got smashed until her skin broke, and flesh was seen by his fists every single time!

“My Lord, what is this great fog all about?” After being hit seven times in a row, Hydra finally conceded defeat and realized that she was no match for Yang Ling. But, she had more and more questions in her mind.

As a Nine-headed Snake with the power at the peak level of the Mid-level Deity, she not only understood the Law of Energy, she also understood the Law of Wind, Earth, Fire, and Water. Even if her understanding of every Law was not deep enough, but with her nine brains casting the Divine Level Spells together, it was extremely powerful. But without knowing why, once she entered the area the great fog enveloped, she frequently had a feeling of not being able to give her best for every spell she cast, as if having fallen into a different Space where the Laws of the heaven and earth are different.

“This is Space Bind, wherever the white fog envelops, everything is within my control!” Yang Ling smiled, wiping the sweat off his face, waving his hand to dissipate the Space Bind. In an instant, the thick fog rapidly dissipated, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Just by having a preliminary understanding of the mystery of the Space Bind, Yang Ling could already win a battle against Hydra bare-fisted. With this, Yang Ling was very satisfied! It could be said that this was the most powerful Wizardry he had ever come into contact with so far. Combined with the Five Element Evasion Technique, the Ground Guardian, and the Battle Soul Blade, his Battle Power got a huge upgrade!

Even though it was very powerful, the weakness of the Space Bind was also extremely obvious. Like the Battle Soul Blade, it needed large amounts of Wizard Power and Mental Energy. The thicker the white fog, and the bigger the area it covered, the more Wizard Power and Mental Energy it exhausted. Not even half an hour, and the Wizard Power and Mental Energy in his body had already been diminished by half.

The Battle Soul Blade also exhausted much Wizard Power and Mental Energy. He could only do three strikes in a row every time. If he were to cast the Space Bind at the same time, then he might very possibly only be able to strike once with the blade. If he were not able to kill in one strike after meeting a powerful enemy and was unable to rapidly swallow Magical Beasts Blood Orbs or the Water of the Spring of Life to replenish what was exhausted, then it would be extremely dangerous!

“There’s only a chance to use the blade, is it worth it or not?” After touching the blade on his back, Yang Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head, secretly thinking of ways to rapidly increase his Wizard Power and Mental Energy.

An unknown number of ancient Deities and Demons were buried at the Graveyard of the Deities and Demons. Not only were there many forgotten Divine Weapons that were astonishing in power, but there were also the Divinities of High-level Deities or even Experts of Core Deity level. If he could get and combine with the energy contained within the Divinities, his Wizard Power and Mental Energy would be able to increase rapidly, much better than being able to swallow the Water of the Spring of Life and Crystal Marrow.

Space Bind that could control everything?

After hearing what Yang Ling said, no matter Hydra or the Corpse Wizard King, all of their bodies jolted in shock. They might have known that Yang Ling knew many mysterious spells, but they had never thought that there existed such a horrifying spell on earth!

If he were to master the spell thoroughly, then how terrifying would it be?

“My Lord, can you teach us how to train in the Space Bind spell?” The Demoness’ eyes glowed in excitement, and she could not wait to learn Yang Ling’s skill quickly.

“It’s not that I don’t want to teach it to you, it’s just that you are unable to learn it right now!” Looking at the excited Demoness, and looking at the people who were full of hope, including the Corpse Wizard King and Hydra, Yang Ling shook his head. “I had told all of you a long time ago. Wizard Power and the soul are the real foundations of training in Wizardry. All of you are only interested in training in all sorts of Laws and have not spent much time and effort in practicing the Soul Wizardry that I’ve taught you. How can you expect to master the profound Space Bind Wizard Spell easily?”

“My Lord, this...” The Dark Dragon King scratched the back of his head and smiled in embarrassment, and continued, “The Wizardry you taught us is simply too profound. Often, we find no effects even after practicing it for more than ten days. Is there a shortcut to quickly train and practice?”

In order to rapidly increase the power of the Great Magical Beasts Army, Yang Ling, had beforehand, taught the fundamentals of Soul Wizardry to people like the Corpse Wizard King and Dark Dragon King. Unfortunately, its effect was not ideal. Not matter the Dark Dragon King or Flying Dragon King, all of them improved rapidly when training in the Body Honing Wizard Mantra, but had met with unprecedented difficulties when training in Soul Wizardry. Even the so-called cultivation genius, the Corpse Wizard King, up until now, was only able to make a few types of ordinary Magical Beast Blood Talismans, and could only help to make Magical Beast Blood Orbs.

Shortcut?

Looking at the embarrassed Dark Dragon King, Yang Ling shook his head. “You reap what you sow. Whether you are training in the Laws or Wizardry, there are no shortcuts. You can only depend on your own tough training and understanding. Just make the best use of your time to train in cultivation in the Mighty Beast Domain. That’s the only shortcut to rapidly increase the power of the whole of our Great Magical Beasts Army!”

After guiding everyone to train in the cultivation of the Mighty Beasts Domain, Yang Ling rapidly left. According to the previous agreement with Raymond, today was the day he would have to head to the Northern Glacier and enter the Graveyard of the Deities and Demons. He had to leave quickly.

“Brother Yang Ling, are you okay?” Yang Ling had just reappeared, when people like Sophia and Alice anxiously surrounded him.

“I’m fine, don’t worry!” After reassuring people like Sophia and Yuna with a few words, he quickly sprinted straight for the Wizard’s Pagoda at the Magical Beast Plaza. In order to be able to go freely in and out of the Graveyard of the Deities and Demons in the future, he had to leave deep Soul Seals separately at both the Magical Beasts Realm and the Graveyard of the Deities and Demons. Otherwise, he might not be able to use the Teleportation Portal.

Ever since the Wizard Sect had officially been established, Goode had ordered people to build a huge Wizard’s Pagoda in the Magical Beast Plaza, for the followers to pray and gather at. Together with the Shangrila Hotel, and Wissen Castle, it had become one of the three great representative buildings of the Magical Beasts Realm.

“A Great Wizard’s Blood Essence, carries a Great Soul Wizard’s undying Divine Knowledge!” Yang Ling took out the Crystal Skull, placed it on the highest level of the Wizard’s Pagoda, and dripped a few drops of Blood Essence on the Crystal Skull.

According to the Stele, the best way to leave a Soul Seal would be to leave a copy of oneself behind. Unfortunately, before advancing to the level of Mid-level Soul Wizard, Yang Ling was unable to train in the powerful Out of Body Cloning Spell. He could only go for the next best option and leave behind the Crystal Skull that his soul was interlinked with.

Ever since he had advanced to the level of Soul Wizard, he could cast Soul Wizard Spells like the Roar of Dead Souls and Soul Assimilating Light Ray without relying on the help of the Crystal Skull. After gaining possession of the Battle Soul Blade with even stronger attack power, he had even less use for the Crystal Skull. Now, it just about came in handy.

In order to protect the Crystal Skull, Yang Ling waved his hand and set an Imprisonment Restriction, and layered it with an Illusion Formation and Gravity Restriction. After thinking in the silence of the moment, he thought he might as well summon a large group of Pythons to guard it, including two Six-headed Giant Pythons with the power of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts.

With the Crystal Skull, he himself might be able to use the Teleportation Portal to freely come and go from the Graveyard of the Deities and Demons. At a critical moment, he just might have to rely on this to flee for his life, so he had no choice but to be careful. After all, the Graveyard of the Deities and Demons had traps everywhere, and no one knew what kinds of dangers he might encounter. He needed to be ready for the worst.

The Nine-headed Snake King Hydra had brought with her a large number of pythons from the Magical Beast Dimension. Among them, there were quite a number of Six-headed Giant Pythons with the power of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts. Not only did they have astonishing close combat capabilities, but they were also extremely outstanding in their magic. With two Six-headed Giant Pythons with the power of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts holding down the fort, the Wizard’s Pagoda would be much more secure, and Yang Ling need not worry about the Crystal Skull within the Wizard’s Pagoda being damaged by other people.

“Goode, send someone to seal off the seventh level of the Wizard’s Pagoda. Without my orders, no one is to come close!” After leaping off and landing on the ground, Yang Ling commanded gravely. Even though there was protection with Restriction and the Pythons, but just in case, he still needed to add a group of soldiers to guard the outside.

“Yes, you can rest assured My Lord. Your subordinate will send the best of the Wizard Sect to stand guard personally!” Goode accepted the command with a bow. Even though he did not know what Yang Ling had placed at the top level of the Wizard Tower, but seeing the serious expression in his face, Goode realized that that was definitely not an ordinary treasure, and was prepared to send the elite to stand guard personally.

During this period of time, the inner Sect of the Wizard Sect had not undergone many changes, and its core members almost did not increase. But, the outer Sect had expanded rapidly, having recruited many Nine-star Hunters and Experts of Sage Level, even of Domain power. It would be no problem to transfer a few Experts over to stand guard.

The power of the Magical Beasts Realm then was nothing compared to what it was today!

Wissen Town had also developed from a sleepy small town by the wayside back in the day, into one of the few big cities on the continent, attracting huge numbers of talents from all over, injecting an endless supply of new blood into the development of the Realm, Hunter Association, and Wizard Sect!

“Good, very good. You can settle the details by yourself. Following this, I will be out of town for about half a year. You and Yuna and gang can discuss and settle whatever issues within the Realm by yourselves!” After giving a few simple instructions, Yang Ling said goodbye to people like Sophia and Yuna and immediately set off on his journey, rushing to the faraway Northern Glacier.

The Graveyard of the Deities and Demons was about to be activated soon, and he must meet up with the rest of them, like the Chief Elder of the Dark Association, as quickly as possible!

Whoosh...

Yang Ling gave his best effort, using his fastest speed to reach the Northern Glacier, like a shooting star gliding across the sky. Along the way, he passed various flourishing towns, precipitous mountains, ancient forests stretching tens of thousands of miles, getting closer and closer to the Northern Glacier.

The weather in the Magical Beasts Realm was very hot, and they were in the time of the year where it was the hottest. But the further north he went, the weather got colder and colder. The conditions on the environment on the high plains of the north were severe. Apart from the Orcs who were hardworking and able to endure hardships, there were almost no other people. Often, Yang Ling could fly ten thousand miles without seeing a single village or town. The desolate rolling mountains covered with snow and ice all year round could be seen everywhere. Casting an eye out, there seemed to be no end in sight!
