Lin Yun watched the evil soul disperse. He wasn’t sure whether or not the evil soul had been truly destroyed. At this moment, the King of Nightmares drifted behind Enderfa.
“Is the Bloody Lich’s soul really destroyed? I remember that his soul was split up, wasn’t it?”
After being slapped by Enderfa, the King of Nightmares hurried to explain to Lin Yun.
“Merlin—”
Pa!
“Damn it, Nightmare, say Sir Merlin…”
“Sir Merlin, Dereksey is absolutely dead. Uther’s soul has been divided into two parts, the kindhearted part and the evil part. To put it simply, they were independent from each other. Dereksey’s soul was right here.
“His soul has been swallowed and digested by the Blade of Death. Dereksey must be dead already. He’s as dead as anyone can be.
“As for the other part, I think its name is Prome. But that’s fine. It’s the kindhearted part of Uther’s soul. He’s so kindhearted that he must be dead already. Even if he’s alive, he won’t cause any trouble…” Nightmare explained in a low voice, and Lin Yun was finally reassured. He had been worried that the Bloody Lich didn’t die completely.
Liches were great trouble. If they weren’t completely killed, they would haunt their opponents for eternity. If they died, they would just revive and come again. They could be really annoying.
Lin Yun was quite surprised at the other name he heard. Prome…
He was the leader of the Holy Light Alliance. Remembering what Prome did in his life, Lin Yun was greatly enlightened. No wonder Prome was such a noble man that even Lin Yun felt ashamed of himself.
So that was why he felt that Prome’s soul was weird last time. There was not the slightest evilness in Prome’s soul. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the man had all the virtues.
Only a pure man like him could’ve grasped the holy light so well…
He had been taking precautions against Prome. After all, he detected that Prome’s soul was a bit weird. Also, Lin Yun didn’t believe that there were any saints who didn’t have any selfish thoughts. No intelligent creatures could be selfless.
Now that he figured out everything, he didn’t need to care about Prome anymore…
What the Bloody Lich had been up to probably had to do with the Prome’s arrival too.
The Bloody Lich had been taken care of, but there was still the King of Nightmares, who might seem like an obedient lackey behind Enderfa at this moment, but was a god’s soul anyway.
In terms of level, the King of Nightmares’ soul was definitely level 50. He might not be so strong in real battles, but he was stronger than Lin Yun anyway. It was impossible to set him free from the Book of Death.
The King of Nightmares seemed very smart at this moment. Seeing that the problem here had been taken care of, he dutifully asked Lin Yun to open the void.
Lin Yun opened a crack, and the King of Nightmares obediently returned to the page where he had been standing.
Meanwhile, Lin Yun took Enderfa and the others out of the inner space of the Book of Death.
After he left the Book of Death, he found that the Book of Death was turned to the King of Nightmares’ page, which originally contained a picture of him. However, the picture was shrinking, and an illusionary background appeared in the rear.
After the background stabilized, a message came into Lin Yun’s head from the Book of Death. A new chapter had appeared in the Book of Death.
The Chapter of Dream…
The King of Nightmares turned himself into a new chapter of the Book of Death. He lived in that page, and he could never escape.
Seeing that, Enderfa couldn’t help but curse.
“Damn it, this fool is actually quite smart this time…”
Enderfa was not wrong. The King of Nightmares had voluntarily melted himself into the Book of Death as its new chapter. That was his best possible ending.
He was a god whose power depended on his soul. His soul was of critical importance to him. Although it was hard to destroy a god’s soul, it was not entirely impossible to do that.
More importantly, the King of Nightmares had been living in misery ever since his perishing. He was trapped in someone else’s dream in his own kingdom and tortured for an era. He almost lost his mind even though he was a god.
He escaped, only narrowly. Then, he endured even more hardships. If he hadn’t recognized Enderfa, the latter would’ve definitely pretended they didn’t know each other, and Lin Yun would’ve cut him apart.
If his soul had been cut apart, his consciousness would’ve been obliterated, and he would’ve been as good as dead. That was definitely the worst outcome.
At this moment, he was only fusing his soul and all his power into the Book of Death as the Chapter of Dream in the Book of Death. He didn’t need to worry about the ceaseless torture anymore.
The Chapter of Dream would be his own world where he could do anything he wanted without any worries. Besides, after he melted into the Book of Death, it would grow more powerful. He would never be in any danger unless the Book of Death was destroyed.
The dignity of gods was already extinct two eras ago. Even the strongest god, after being tortured for two eras, should already acknowledge the reality.
Besides, his boss in the past had already turned into a Magic Tool Incarnation, so it shouldn’t be humiliating for him to follow his boss, and become a part of the Extraordinary Magic Tool…
If someone strong did a thing that was usually considered humiliating, then that thing would be less humiliating. That was the power of a role model…
The problems of the King of Nightmares and the Book of Death were taken care of. The Book of Death’s Magic Tool Incarnation was subdued too. Everything was perfect.
Floating in the sky in the Natural Demiplane, Lin Yun examined everything around him with his eyes closed. When he opened his eyes again, he felt that he had reached the peak of level 7 of the Heaven Rank.
This time, his understanding of earth, fire, water, and wind all reached the peak of level 7 of the Heaven Rank. There seemed to be an invisible balance among them.
That was much better than before. He had never had this feeling of perfection when he understood laws in the past after he entered the Heaven Rank.
Now that he had the feeling of perfection again, Lin Yun began to adjust his understanding of laws. In only a dozen seconds, everything seemed different.
The power of laws became like an extension of his arm. It was even easier for him to make use of. He even had the feeling that after he perfectly grasped the laws of earth, fire, water, and wind, it would be easier for him to understand the laws of light, darkness, and space.
He then saw his alchemist teams and a few special races, namely the Cave Gnomes, the Red-Skinned Spirit Suckers, and the Firerock Dwarves, who were busy in the Natural Demiplane.
They were building parts for the Shelter Tower. More and more things were deviating from what happened in history. Lin Yun couldn’t help but have a feeling of crisis.
He had to speed up the construction of the Shelter Tower. If he built some of its parts at best, then the real construction would be a lot faster when it began. Also, many of the parts had to be experimented on before they were put to use. It was impossible to build them from scratch.
After taking a tour in the Shelter Tower’s construction base, and giving some advice to the alchemists, Lin Yun left.
The Shelter Tower was the greatest masterpiece in the heyday of Noscent. It was technically a magic building, but a lot of magic tools were applied to it. Its core parts were all made according to the method of magic tools.
Lin Yun could entrust most of the parts to his alchemist teams. What he had to work on was the Reedpush Plate, one of the most important components.
The Reedpush Plate that was made in history was incomplete. A complete Reedpush Plate required alchemy puppets’ talent runes as core runes, which made them essentially natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tools. They might not be very powerful, but they would have a lot of potential.
The destruction of the Shelter Tower proved the repercussions of constructing an incomplete Shelter Tower. The incomplete Reedpush Plate could not endure the decline of magic power. When magic power ebbed, mages would lose their strength.
Only the alchemy puppets’ talent runes, which represented laws themselves, could be used anytime and anywhere.
There was no telling how Pabiete’s hunting went in the Puppet Plane, but everything should be alright. When Pabiete left, Lin Yun gave him the privilege of escaping back into the Natural Demiplane when he encountered irresistible enemies.
Even if someone destroyed the coordinates that Pabiete left behind, it would be fine. It wouldn’t matter even if they came into the Natural Demiplane.
The Natural Demiplane was no longer what it had been. Not every super expert was able to destroy it anymore.
At this moment, even if an expert in the peak of the Heaven Rank was to enter the Natural Demiplane, they would still be suppressed mercilessly. The Natural Demiplane was almost evolving into a real world.. However strong an expert in the peak of the Heaven Rank was, he couldn’t endure the pressure of an entire world.
