….

Moments later, after travelling through the darkness, Leylin once again emerged in the Ancient Spirit Slaying Sect’s secret plane.

Leylin easily passed through the corridor and came to the place where Leylin had initially found the secret room.

*Rumble!* After pressing the power switch, a side of the wall slowly opened to reveal a secret room.

This room was extremely small, with a black spell formation in the centre that was surrounded by four stone pillars. Beside one of the pillars was the remains of a Magus.

Leylin flickered his hand and released a little black snake.

*Sssii!*

The little black snake circled the spell formation and suddenly began to hiss.

Black flames began to burn from the surface of its scales.

The flames became increasingly intense, gradually forming a doorway with abstruse spatial runes on its frame.

“A.I. Chip! Scan the teleportation spell formation!” Leylin pressed his ring, and a blue light that only he could see began to sweep the spell formation.

[Beep! Scanning complete! Intactness of spell formation is 99.8%. Lack of energy present!]

The A.I. Chip quickly responded.

Before when Leylin sent Lancy and group through the teleportation Formation after fully repairing it. He also locked the formation erasing a small key component from it, since he didn’t want something unpredictable to happen.

Leylin ordered, “Let’s begin the restoration of the formation.”

[Beep! Scanned incomplete portion, beginning simulation of restoration process…]

As the A.I. Chip sounded, Leylin felt as if he had arrived right at the spell formation. His fingers slid like the most precise surgical scalpel as he mended the teleportation spell formation.

The runes carved onto the spell formation were extremely dense and complicated. They were more than ten times tinier than a strand of hair, with the aid of the A.I. Chip, his every movement was filled with grace and fluidity. With his current level Leylin could easily finish this work.

*Weng!* The blue light disappeared, and Leylin returned to normal. The feeling he had just experienced lingered in his mind.

In front of him, the black teleportation spell formation still retained its original state without any signs of change.

Seeing the signs being made so fluently despite only being used once in the simulation.

Leylin approached the side of the spell formation and gazed at the skeletal remains of Magus with a mocking expression and nonchalantly ignored it.

“Naz’s Hand, third formation!” Leylin made a spell pattern, and from the tip of his fingers, silver threads were sent out and entwined themselves along the surface of the spell formation…

Soon the teleportation spell formation was now completely restored to its original state, as if it were brand new.

Leylin looked at the surface of this new spell formation, and his eyes flashed.

The leather pouch at his waist automatically opened, and a black crystal flew out and dropped into the energy groove in the teleportation spell formation.

Within this crystal was a pure darkness, with even some transparent, distorted flames burning within. This was the essence of the magic crystals he had purified! The consumed had totalled over a thousand magic crystal cards, which meant a value of over a ten million magic crystals!

Although the ancient teleportation spell formation could send a Magus far away, the energy required to do was also monstrous.

With Leylin current accomplishments, it’s rather easy to gather this amount of magic crystals.

*Rumble!* After the essence of the magic crystal was deposited into the groove, the spell formation began to rumble.

Mysterious magic runes began to light up, and bright rays lit up every corner of the spell formation

*Ka-cha! Ka-cha! Ka-cha! Ka-cha!*

Threads of pure energy from the magic crystal was extracted from the spell formation and poured into the ancient spell formation.

From the bottoms of the four stone pillars, rings of light emerged and spread to the tops of the pillars, until the top suddenly exploded to reveal a hole.

Piercing light rushed out of the centre of the pillars and formed four differently coloured bundles of light, which hovered at the tops of the pillars.

Earthen brown, fiery red, heavenly green, and azure balls of light silently appeared in mid-air.

In a few ancient schools of thought, there had once been a concept that earth, fire, wind, and water formed the foundations of the world!

“Activate!” Leylin exclaimed loudly, using a language full of a cryptic and ancient aura.

This was the Turian language that the Spirit Slaying Sect used! After recording information regarding this with the A.I. Chip, Leylin had effortlessly learnt this language.

*Weng Weng!*

Four energy balls constantly fluctuated, and different coloured rays extended from the balls, converging above the heart of the teleportation spell formation.

*Ka-cha!*

As if the fabric of space had been split in two, and as if lightning had descended, huge spatial distortions appeared in front of Leylin and became a depthless hole.

“Twilight Zone! Get ready, I am coming! “ 

*Rumble!*  

A layer of Kemoyin’s Scales covered Leylin’s body, and with a huge leap, the silverish spatial passageway swallowed him.

*Tss tss!* After teleporting one person, all the energy of the spell formation was sucked dry, and the various rays of light dimmed. The passageway disappeared.

Suddenly as the formation was activated and Leylin passed through, the eye socket of the corpse at side shined in a menacing red and a malevolent aura was unleashed inside the cabinet.

A moment later, The skeleton immediately turned into ashes as soon the light dimmed in it’s orbital socket.

After Leylin entered the spatial passageway, regret was apparent in his expression.

The reason was very simple, there was space vortex appearance in his teleportation. Space Vortex is a rarely observed incident while travelling. The real reason for it’s occurance is not known but right now Leylin is thrown outside the teleportation pathway and into the chaotic space vortex.

He has to suffer through the Spatial pressure which is much worse than what a Rank 3 could endure. Originally this was supposed to be an easy enough event but right now Leylin has to suffer unimaginable pressure and he also has to find a coordination to get out or else he will be crushed.

The immense spatial power was like several hundred tons of lead pressing against him from all directions and tearing his body apart.

Kemoyin’s Scales constantly produced crisp explosive sounds, as if about to crumble under this power.

If that happened, Leylin, who no longer had an innate defensive spell, would turn into minced meat in the flow of space.

“No! This can’t happen, It was suppose to be a easy teleportation. I was supposed to get there, Explore Ruins, Play a game of destiny, Screw everyone, conquer the realm, Make all the elves my slave and have fun! I won’t settle for this!!!”

Leylin’s expression was serious, “This is a spatial passage is now crooked, I must find another outlet. The pressure within is something I can’t withstand for long. Only a Rank 4 Magi can travel through these vortex. ”

“This can’t go on!” Leylin saw his Kemoyin’s Scales contracting, so he activated his Ring of Despots.

*Puff!* A defensive layer formed from the Ring on the surface of his body, and it began to vibrate for a while; after only one seconds, it shattered.

“A Defensive barrier powered by my blood essence capable of withstanding even a weak Rank 3 spell could last for only one second?” Leylin expression was serious as he connected the Ring with his Meridian constantly drawing it and spending His blood essence. He was not able to accumulate much since he breakthrough to Rank 3 , since he thought there was no need to.

Currently, He has around 300 drops of Pure Blood Essence. If the current pressure is taken into account it will last him five minutes. There is big ‘If’ here! Leylin could feel that the pressure is increasing bit by bit.

From the start till now, the pressure has increased multifold and his defense were breaking even faster, causing him to compensate by burning them in a bulk.

“I need to find a stable space. A. I. Chip, quickly scan the space and try to find a coordinate”

[ Beep! Task established… ]

Usually this is an impossible task for a mere Rank 3 to withstand the pressure and investigate at the same time but with A. I. Chip, Leylin may find a way.

*Boom*

One by one his Protective barrier continued to be decimated, Leylin could do nothing. As Leylin was nearing the end of his line, he heard the Sound he has been waiting for.

[ Beep! Space Coordinates found!.. ]

He was left with only 50 something Pure Blood Essence. The Pressure has increased even further. Leylin screamed as he launched himself in the direction given by A. I. Chip. He exhausted 20 more of them to only reach the perimeter.

He used the last 30 Drops inside his body to burn at once. Activating Rampage, With Kemoyin scales and Eidolon all together.

Finally, The protective layer was gone and the large pressure was once again put on his body. Leylin has already fled the chaotic space into the space coordinates but he still suffered from the impact since he has to bear the gigantic pressure pushed on him till he exits the teleportation pathway.

“Ah…” Leylin roared, spiritual force and magic constantly being consumed at rapid speed, along with the Blood Essences. Although Eidolon could protect him physically from an attack it has little to no use in this place.

*Ka-cha! Ka-cha!*  

After being in a deadlock for a period of time, Leylin’s spiritual force was exhausted and the defence of the Kemoyin’s Scales shattered into pieces. A tremendous pressure began to tear Leylin’s body apart.
