Chapter 6: Compound Forbidden Spell!
Editor: Atlas Studios
Celia was in utter despair. Klent had risked everything, using the Dimension Summoning Array at the cost of all his magic. He had hoped to summon the most powerful creature in the legend, an angel or a demon king, or at the very least, a saint magical beast from another dimension. Only these powerful creatures could possibly save Skadi, or at least make the enemy pay a painful price. However, he had never expected to summon an ordinary human! His strength was only enough to release wind blades, and he did not have any protective gear or weapons on him. If he continued here, he would obviously be courting death. If he really stayed, he might distract them and cause more trouble.
"I…" Just as Klent was about to use a scroll to teleport Mo Fan away, a strong magic wave suddenly attacked!
Klent and Celia turned around sharply in that instant, looking in the direction of the Temple of Light camp. This wave of magical elements, so strong that tremors could be felt for kilometers, was coming from the core area of the Temple of Light camp!
At the same time, the violent wave felt like a thousand-pound pressure had hit the Skadi camp. For a moment, the many soldiers on the walls found it difficult to remain standing. Even Klent felt the pressure, sensing the violent elemental fluctuations and powerful pressure from the Temple of Light camp. His expression suddenly changed as he let out a gasp. "It's the compound forbidden spell!"
At this moment, Klent felt a deep chill spreading from his toes to his entire body. His back was instantly drenched in cold sweat. His strong and upright body was trembling slightly.
"Teacher, what's wrong?" Celia could not help asking when she saw that Klent, who usually seemed very calm no matter how difficult the situation was, was losing his composure.
She could sense the power of the great magic on the side of the Temple of Light, but she had never heard of the so-called compound forbidden spell. To Celia's knowledge, a forbidden spell was already the strongest attack a Great Archmage could use. How powerful was a compound forbidden spell?! Celia had a vague answer when she saw that Klent, who was usually calm and collected, seemed to have lost his composure because of the great magic of the Temple of Light. Still, she mustered her courage and asked Klent.
"This is a combination of great magic that only five top Archmages can cast!" Klent said. Celia froze in shock and looked lifeless.
Any Great Archmage in the outside world was a terrifying being that could sweep through an army and run a country. On the other hand, top Great Archmages were elusive and super experts that ordinary kings could not even meet! These Great Archmages could overturn an ordinary kingdom in a short period of time just by relying on their individual strength! And the final destructive power of the combination of five top Great Archmages was not something ordinary people dared to imagine!
"And the real horror of the compound forbidden spell is that the energy it ultimately releases far exceeds the cumulative power of the five Archmages," Klent said, sounding desperate.
"The world knows that you can only be called a Great Archmage if you can release a forbidden spell.
But a compound forbidden spell is by no means something a Great Archmage can cast, and certainly not something a few of them put together can easily cast.
Only the top Great Archmages of the four elements of water, fire, earth, and wind, recognized by the temple, can successfully release such spells after a long period of training!
There must be at least five Great Archmages and one of them must be absolutely proficient in the four elements of water, fire, earth, and wind magic to mediate! And this person is definitely a Temple-level Great Archmage!
And because the conditions for release are so strict, the final compound forbidden spell must be able to fuse the power of the four basic elements—wind, water, fire, and earth—in order to use more powerful advanced magic!" Klent spoke again after a moment of silence. "The three high-level magical elements—light, darkness, and lightning! The final destructive power is infinitely close to that of the gods!"
Klent's despair grew. Even in his prime, he would have been able to defend only himself against such a powerful spell at best. Now that he had exhausted his strength using the Dimension Summoning Array, Klent was almost resigned to his fate. Who would have thought that the mighty Dimension Summoning Array would summon a mortal who was a little rusty at using wind blades!
Klent even felt that if he had summoned the Demon King of the Abyss, things would be better than the current situation. At least he could save Celia and let her escape! But now, he was afraid… At last, all he could do was sigh weakly. When Celia heard this, she felt as if she had been struck by a bolt of lightning. She felt a little dizzy and sank to the ground unsteadily. The tears flowed irresistibly from her bright eyes.
"I told you to leave, but you wouldn't listen. Now you're going to die here too." Celia looked at Mo Fan with tears streaming down her cheeks.
Mo Fan looked helplessly at the girl in front of him, who was crying and rebuking him at the same time. After all, she was still a girl, and he couldn't blame her. Besides, she meant well, but they just didn't see his strength. As long as Mo Fan didn't deliberately release it, they wouldn't be able to sense the magical power in him. On this thought, Mo Fan decided to comfort Celia.
"It's just a light-based purification spell," Mo Fan said casually. "Can it be compared to the power of the gods? It's not worthy."
At this moment, Mo Fan was not pretending. He was the most powerful mage player in his original world, a being known as the Mage God! With his previous gaming experience and the magical elemental fluctuations at the scene, Mo Fan had long determined that the great magic of the Temple of Light camp was not the so-called compound forbidden spell as Klent had said, but a high-level light magic—Purification!
High-level magic sounded powerful, but it was worlds apart from the so-called compound forbidden spell. It couldn't even reach the level of a forbidden spell! Could it compete with the power of the gods with high-level magic? It was really not good enough.
A high-level forbidden spell in the true sense of the word was a being that could threaten the gods. It had a terrifying power that could destroy the world! That kind of power was something that no one could imagine! And the thunder forbidden spell, Fate's Judgment, that Mo Fan had used to kill the Chaos Demon God, was the true high-level forbidden spell. Once it was activated, it instantly killed the invincible Chaos Demon God!
The barrier between Mages was even larger than the barrier between heaven and earth. Great Mages could only master the four basic forbidden spells of wind, water, fire, and earth. Only Saint Mages could master light, darkness, and lightning high-level magic! No matter how hard the Great Archmages tried, even if they used what they thought was a compound forbidden spell, they could only activate light, darkness, and lightning magic. To a certain extent, it was close to the power of a Saint Realm spell only.
The Temple of Light regarded purifying this high-level light magic as a forbidden spell only because, with their limited outlook and experience, they had never seen a Saint Mage before. Only Saint Realm experts were qualified to release the true light, darkness, and lightning forbidden spell. This was the difference. As long as one did not become a Saint Mage, one would never be able to touch the light, darkness and lightning!
"It's my turn to perform!" Mo Fan was eager.
He had long wanted to test his skills and see if he had consolidated his gaming strengths. Now that the opportunity presented itself, how could he not be delighted? Then he opened the system's equipment interface and his eyes flickered.
At the same time, Klent was furious that Mo Fan didn't care a hoot about the compound forbidden spell in the face of such a life-and-death crisis. However, when he finally shifted his gaze from the enemy's army to Mo Fan and was about to scold him, he was instantly stunned.
