Chapter 105: The Power of the Forbidden Spell! A Spark Ignites! An Instant Blaze! [Please Subscribe]
Deep within the Gate of the Moonlight Realm, near the mountains, a dense black mist now shrouded the entire area, spanning tens of miles in every direction. At the center of this mist, there was not just one gate to another realm, but several unusual purple zones from which monsters continuously emerged through rifts.
The order here was unlike the wild beasts outside—everything operated with a strange discipline. On the mist-covered plains, distant giants tens of meters tall roamed, creatures never before seen on any battlefield. Near the mountains stood a colossal, eerie tower made from a strange crystalline material, clearly not of Earthly origin.
Within the tower’s central chamber wandered numerous Moonlight Envoys, many devoid of consciousness, alongside strange semi-spiritual creatures marked with arcane runes. These beings, half-ethereal and half-material, prowled silently.
In the main hall, a silver map glowed, outlining the territories they had seized. Several massive semi-spiritual entities loomed over it, uttering strange syllables. The map’s core, marked in red, corresponded exactly to the light barrier zone designated by the command center in Jingmen’s safety district.
Indeed, these invaders had arrived in this world through the light barrier. Upon realizing the power level on Blue Star was relatively low, more and more Moonlight Beasts began pouring in. This world, a more complete plane than their own, clearly sparked ambitions within them.
A sudden crackle sounded as the semi-spiritual beings communicated. A void panel displayed the footage of Zhan Yu’s team’s incursion. The semi-spirituals showed no panic; watching Zhan Yu struggle just to reach the outer perimeter even seemed to amuse them, as if mocking their overconfidence.
“Continue summoning the Sacred Spirit Beasts. Await the arrival of the Master,” one of the entities intoned in eerie musical notes.
“Continue summoning the Sacred Spirit Beasts. Await the arrival of the Master,” echoed the others, their voices resonating within the crystalline tower.
Meanwhile, Yi Shen’s target was also the black mist. When he had come alone before, he struggled against the relentless onslaught of Moonlight Blades emerging from the fog. This time, however, he intended to test whether his forbidden spell could affect the mist.
Unlike Zhan Yu’s team, who sought research materials and intelligence, Yi Shen chose the area teeming with the densest monsters—aiming to grind for materials and experience.
Hovering above, Yi Shen set burning bombs on numerous flying gargoyles circling nearby. Within minutes, these stone creatures were blasted clean, their petrification quickly undone by the spell’s true damage effect.
“This forbidden spell… its casting feels unlike any ordinary skill,” Yi Shen thought as he prepared to release it.
As he began to cast, his vision shifted into a strange pattern of glowing lines, as if he needed to guide the spell’s range and power with intent. Elemental fluctuations rippled through the world—some areas pulsed with intense red energy, others less so. Yi Shen deduced these were scattered fire elements.
He returned to the spot where he had set the burning bombs—the area richest with fire elements. Below him, no black mist lay, but a scattered horde of over a hundred monsters. Yi Shen extended the forbidden spell’s coverage to its maximum, astonishingly enveloping several hundred meters—ten times the range of a blizzard.
The casting was devoid of ritualistic ceremony. As Yi Shen focused, a strange energy coursed through him; some magic seemed drawn out of his body, only to be replenished from deep within his soul.
From his perspective, fiery red lines multiplied, and the world shimmered with a radiant crimson glow. Flickering flames converged, illuminating the surrounding land and sky, coalescing into a colossal gate-shaped blaze.
The entire process took scarcely ten seconds. Once formed, the fiery gate began to absorb nearby fire elements, forging a mysterious bond with Yi Shen.
With a roaring crackle, the conflagration intensified, lighting up over half the mountain range. Initially, Yi Shen had estimated the gate’s span in the hundreds of meters, but in practice, it was even larger.
The gate’s center transformed from emptiness into a swirling vortex of red-purple flames, resembling a portal to another realm. Flames surged outward uncontrollably.
Yi Shen gave the command to attack. Instantly, hundreds of terrifying fire streams crashed down upon the ground, startling even him.
The flames covered over a kilometer, bathing the world in a fiery glow. Yi Shen had anticipated great power from the forbidden spell, yet this far exceeded his expectations.
This was only the beginning. From the gate emerged darker flames, as if a gateway to a fiery hell had been opened, ravenous and eager to consume all.
The first wave of fire struck the ground, and Yi Shen could only watch from afar as damage numbers floated above the scorched beasts, their forms vanishing beneath the inferno.
The firestorm completely engulfed the monster pack, incinerating even the more dispersed foes in the distance.
More astonishingly, Yi Shen could control the flames with his will. When he targeted lingering gargoyles in the sky, darker fire erupted from the gate, eagerly consuming the stone creatures and even melting their rocky remains.
Amidst the roaring blaze, the world fell silent but for the crackling flames.
Less than thirty seconds had passed since the gate’s creation, yet it was still active.
Glancing at his status panel, Yi Shen saw that the forbidden spell was not yet on cooldown. When he tried to cast again, the fiery lines reappeared, signaling success.
Soon, a new flame gate formed, slightly smaller but equally fierce, its flames hungry to devour all.
Both gates burned fiercely until the spell’s duration ended, then gradually faded into the sky.
On the scorched earth below lay barren ground and scattered loot spheres. The ground itself was singed, sunken slightly from the intense heat.
