Chapter 18: Sacred Flame Like The Sea, Martial Prowess Like Hell

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The five Archmages of the Temple of Light could barely withstand the power of this terrifying magic. The endless light released by this terrifying magic almost filled the entire world. No one had the ability to escape. Even defensive magic was useless. They could only rely on their magic or battle aura to withstand it. If not for the fact that the five Archmages were far away from the center of the magical release and had profound and incomparable powers, they probably wouldn’t have been able to last long.

Even so, the five Great Archmages of the Temple of Light did not have the slightest ability to retaliate. They could only rely on their own magic to exhaust themselves until Mo Fan stopped releasing his magic. They had never experienced such a terrifying suppression of strength. A huge sense of powerlessness filled their hearts. It shattered all the mockery and contempt they had displayed before.

“I’ve never seen such magic. The light directly covered the entire space and burned all the living beings within! The power is too extraordinary!” Kaia wiped the sweat off her forehead and said in extreme shock.

“I’m not sure what this spell is. The only thing I’m sure of is that it must be a light spell!” Diluk couldn’t help but exclaim. His mocking and smugness had long since disappeared, leaving him deeply shocked.

“The Skadi Kingdom doesn’t believe in the Light God. There isn’t even a member of the Temple of Light there. Where do they find a mage who knows light magic?” Mal frowned. For the life of him, he couldn’t figure out how the Skadi Kingdom, which was in desperate straits a second ago, could suddenly launch such a powerful attack.

“Don’t tell me the Skadi Kingdom also has five Great Archmages working together to cast a compound forbidden spell?” Mal said in amazement.

“Impossible. Where would Klent find the time to gather the other four Great Archmages? Besides, to help the Skadi Kingdom at this point would be to go against the Temple of Light. Anyone would have to think twice.” Mal then shook his head to dismiss what he’d just thought.

Mal, Kaia, and the others didn’t think that such a terrifying large-scale spell could be released by Mo Fan alone in the void. There had to be some cooperation from the other Great Archmages, but they couldn’t think of anyone else who had such energy to help Mo Fan release such a large spell.

“As long as we’re okay,” said Bals. “A large forbidden spell of this level won’t last long. We have enough magic to last until it’s over.”

That being said, Bals himself could not guarantee a hundred percent that he would last until the end of the large spell released by the Skadi Kingdom. This large spell was simply too strange. It did not look like a group spell that matched a forbidden spell. It looked more like a forbidden spell released by one person alone, and its power far exceeded that of a compound forbidden spell.

But past knowledge made it impossible for Bals to believe that the large spell in front of him was a forbidden spell cast by a single person. The Saint Mage, who could cast three forbidden spells of Light, Dark, and Lightning on his own, had been gone for almost a thousand years. Where in the Skadi Kingdom did the Saint Mage come from? Adams didn’t speak at the moment, but was forcing himself to calm down and analyze the situation.

Compared to Bal’s fluctuating thoughts, Adams knew full well that the large-scale magic released by the Skadi Kingdom was definitely not a compound forbidden spell. As an extremely senior Temple of Light Archbishop, he had released more than one compound forbidden spell and knew exactly what elemental fluctuations and power it could cause. Adams was especially familiar with the light-based compound forbidden spell.

However, the large-scale spell released by the Skadi Kingdom was beyond Adams’ understanding. If that wasn’t a compound forbidden spell, the answer would probably be obvious. Furthermore, Adams was almost a hundred percent sure that the Skadi Kingdom couldn’t possibly gather five Great Archmages to release a compound forbidden spell, let alone release a light compound forbidden spell by a single person!

Adams took a deep look at Mo Fan, who was releasing endless light in the void, and the shock in his eyes couldn’t be greater. At this moment, Adams could only think of ways to analyze what kind of forbidden spell this large-scale spell was. Otherwise, he could not decide on a solution at all. He could only be exhausted to death. A dazzling light lit up in front of Adams. It was one of the commanders of the Temple of Light’s allied army, a powerful level eight knight! He had been reduced to dust by the large-scale spell of the Skadi Kingdom!

Adams’s body jerked as if he’d just thought of something. He immediately turned toward Kaia to cast a wild spell, pouring magic into her to strengthen her barrier.

Kaia, on the other hand, turned to Adams. “Archbishop, what are you doing?!” she asked in amazement. To pour magic into another’s body at a time like this meant giving up completely on maintaining his own barrier. He would never last until the end of the major spell. It would be tantamount to suicide!

“Even if I try my best to protect myself, I won’t survive,” Adams said, shaking his head, his face drained of color. By now Adams’s body was melting.

“It’s a Sacred Flame,” Adams said weakly.

“Sacred Flame!?” The other four Great Archmages felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck them.

The legendary power of the Sacred Flame was well known to the many powerhouses in the Azure Continent. Everyone was shocked. It was because the Sacred Flame was almost unsolvable. No matter how powerful other magic was, as long as you were strong enough, you had the possibility of resisting it. However, the Sacred Flame was a terrifying magic that became stronger when you were strong. The stronger the magic or battle aura in your body, the stronger the Sacred Flame burned.

When encountering the Sacred Flame, resistance was completely futile. Only by running for one’s life could one have a chance of survival. Legend had it that countless powerful Great Archmages had all disappeared in the long annals of history because they had underestimated the Sacred Flame. Facing the Sacred Flame, resistance meant only death!

“Where did the Skadi Kingdom summon the Sacred Flame from!?” Kaia felt a powerful pressure on her barrier as well, as if she herself would be turned to dust before long!

Kaia’s entire body trembled at the thought, and intense fear gripped her.

“Go! You’re the fastest. With the protection of the barrier I gave you, you should be able to fly out of the range of the Sacred Flame’s magic!

Return to the imperial capital immediately after you fly out of the range of the Sacred Flame and report to His Holiness that the messenger of the God of Light has reappeared in the world!” Adams said urgently to Kaia, who was still hesitating.

After saying that, Adams turned to look in Mo Fan’s direction, the shock in his eyes reaching a peak. Kaia and the others were far inferior to Adams in terms of seniority and experience, so they naturally couldn’t assess Mo Fan’s true strength. Only Adams understood that this terrifying Sacred Flame was summoned by the Light forbidden spell cast by Mo Fan, who was shining endlessly in the void. Moreover, this forbidden spell was cast by Mo Fan alone! Only the personal envoy of the God of Light could have such extraordinary strength and be able to cast a Light forbidden spell alone!

“This is definitely not mortal power.” Looking at Mo Fan, who was emitting endless light in the void, Adams gradually turned into specks of fluorescent light and dissipated into the wind.
