Chapter 1086: Jalin’s Compromise (Part 2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

No one knew what Jalin was thinking at the moment, and no one cared. While she was Arbola’s student, Lex never truly saw her as someone untouchable.

Her extreme thoughts resulted from not having suffered since her youth. From Saleen’s perspective, he had done well restraining himself by not killing her where she stood.

Of course, if the magical catastrophe had not been caused by Saleen in the first place, he would not have held back like he did. After all, he had been the one responsible for putting Daliang City in such a crisis.

If he had not opened up the cemetery and released the fossilized gods, the Tribunal would have crushed all powers found in Daliang City and robbed the place clean.

The battle outside the cemetery was clear when one were to look down from the walls 1,640 feet above ground. The level nine powerful ones were able to see everything that the common soldiers were incapable of seeing.

“Gusion, stay here with Jola. Sul, get back and take a break. Eleanor, I know it’s hard for you, but stay here and keep an eye on things.” Saleen gave his orders and took Jalin back to the Magical Element Tower.

Jalin quieted down after entering the tower. She asked Saleen in a low voice, “If I hadn’t agreed to your terms, would I have died?”

Saleen did not answer her. Jalin was trying to find some psychological balance by asking about things after the deed was done. The contract is signed. There is no way she can back out now, and I don’t have to make her feel better about anything. That’s simply unfair for Lex and Sika.

Nailisi went up to the 17th floor. Saleen was very cautious with Jalin and took her straight to the 24th floor. The 17th floor was the control hub of the entire tower. Everything about the tower could be controlled at 17th floor, for example, magic power furnaces to be installed in the future.

The Magical Element Tower had to be able to fight during flight sooner or later. It was just that elemental support for the tower had to be provided by magic power furnaces. It was not stable enough to absorb wind elements in the space they were in. Common magic towers worked by absorbing limitless power from the earth, which enabled them to bring massive powers to bear.

What was even more important was that Saleen’s children were staying inside the 17th floor. He did not want Jalin to see his children ever again. You can never rest easy with this woman around.

Jalin did not know any of that. She liked the 24th floor of the tower.

Nailisi arrived at the 17th floor and looked for Nicholas to have him use fallen divine spells to heal her spirit form’s injuries. She could have recovered slowly on her own. Given that she would be needed in battle at a moment’s notice, she was unable to afford to wait and neither was Saleen.

In the 24th floor of the tower, Jalin took out everything she had gotten inside the cemetery from her space equipment under Sika’s and Lex’s watchful eyes.

Jalin took out a sack and undid the strings at the opening. She poured the contents of the sack on the table. Colors sparkled all over the magic tower as about a thousand crystalline bodies stacked high on the table.

“That’s all?” Saleen asked.

“That’s all.” Jalin spread her hands.

Saleen smirked and snatched the sack from her. The sack did not belong to Jalin. He was able to tell that it was space equipment with one look of his Elemental Eye. Furthermore, the equipment had the unique aura of the cemetery about it.

Jalin pouted in anger. She knew the worth of that sack. It was space equipment capable of carrying living creatures. While the space within was not that big, it was enough to stuff a golden dragon in it.

Saleen took the strings of the sack and fastened it before throwing it to Sika. “It’s yours.”

Everyone was able to hear her teeth grind despite her shutting her mouth tight. While the crystals were invaluable, there were many capable of replacing them. The sack, however, was something very few would have been able to craft in all of Myers Mainland.

Saleen did not originally pay much heed to that equipment. He had dimension stones, and Lex had her God’s Ring. Sika lacked a good piece of space equipment, so Saleen took it from Jalin.

Sika fastened the sack at her hips with a sheepish smile. Jalin turned her head away. She was nowhere strong enough to fight Sika. Even looking at Sika would have infuriated her further.

Saleen picked up a piece of crystal and took a closer look. “I have heard that a giant’s head is not to be touched. It’s something that needs to be buried after they die while the rest of them should be cremated.”

“That’s right. Those are bone crystals, something left behind only when a powerful giant was burned.” Jalin’s voice sounded tight as she felt her heart bleed.

“That’s all you’ve got?” Saleen took his time to put the bone crystals of the giant away.

Jalin was dumbfounded for a bit before continuing, “Those things almost cost me my life. Every single fossilized god in there was stronger than my teacher.”

“So, how did you get out?” Saleen asked.

“The crystals provide elemental powers. I used my movement techniques...” Jalin did not feel like continuing.

She had survived for 10 horrible days scurrying about like a rat and being chased all over the place by fossilized gods. Every single one of those fossilized gods was more powerful than her teacher. They were probably level 12 beings. Furthermore, they were of the lowest level.

There were other fossilized gods that had yet to awaken. According to the Principle of Crystal Coffin, level 12 beings were probably the strongest to be found within the cemetery. If fossilized gods were to be revived, powers across the entire Myers Mainland were required to be raised.

To Jalin, the fossilized gods were even more valuable. It was a pity that she did not have the means to capture any of them. It was unknown who fossilized the gods—the giants or the King of Glory—but whoever did it was someone capable of using level 18 Fossilization.

The Fossilization spell used had perfect rules. Jalin was a sorcerer who specialized in earth magic. If she were able to get to the bottom of the secrets of those rules, her training from then on out would have gone well.

“Jalin, per the terms of the contract, you are required to tell all of us everything you knew.” Saleen spelled the line clearly to Jalin.

“I...”

“Right, you’ve definitely gotten more than these. There are some other things that you might not think are valuable, which are not equipment or materials illustrated in the contract, but I hope you will unload them all, nonetheless.” Saleen took the bone crystals in his hands and continued to lean on Jalin.

Jalin angrily dumped massive amounts of things from her ring onto the table.

Saleen smiled and said, “So, what did you encounter after getting in? Oh, and maps.”

“Paper! Pen!” Jalin could not help but raise her voice. Saleen swept away all the unknown material on the table. He took out starline paper and put it on the table. He then handed Jalin a magic pen.

Jalin was bound with a contract, preventing her from holding anything back. She went on to recount everything that happened after entering the cemetery.

She spoke very slowly. Saleen stayed by her side to guide and ask her about things, letting both Sika and Lex hear everything clearly.

This was not something done to spite her. Jalin was facing huge amounts of pressure in the cemetery, which meant that there would have been matters that she had selectively overlooked or forgotten. Humans had such physiological traits about them, even sorcerers were not exceptions.

Jalin had actually found her magic powers restored to a certain extent after entering the cemetery. She had enough gall to keep looking further inside and found a group of graves belonging to humans.

She did not touch the human graves. As a mage, she hardly ever did things like that herself. Without appropriate help by their side, mages turned away from human graves or tombs instead of looking into them further.

Jalin was no exception. Having followed Arbola since her youth, that habit had taken deep roots in her being.

There was no light in the space of the cemetery. Jalin had been reluctant to waste her magic chords. As such, she simply went about making magic marks on the ground, walking along a straight line as she went further into the cemetery.

The human graves were no longer in sight after walking about 30 miles. Jalin speculated that those were the graves of common folk. A mountain appeared after she made it past the human graves. She had to light up a magic lamp and scale the mountain.

There was an abandoned city in the mountain, which had an area of only about two square miles. Jalin did not find anything valuable within it, so she passed through the city and kept moving forward.

She saw a huge wall made of energy after moving forward around a hundred miles. She walked along the wall for about half a day and was still unable to find its end. She attempted to phase through the wall of energy, but she found herself making it into the wall totally unscathed.

It was a world with light on the other side and a huge moon hanging in the air. What astounded Jalin was the scene beneath the moon. There was a crystal-clear peak far away. The peak was formed completely with bone crystals. There was a huge head at the top of the peak.

The head was definitely over a half a mile tall. It looked angry, frozen at the split second before the giant the head belonged to perished.

There were countless translucent god beings around the peak where the head was placed as an object of worship. The rings of beings nearest to the peak were all tall, huge gods.

Those gods were seen lying prostrate on the ground, looking as if they were worshipping the peak. The expression of every god looked to be filled with humiliation, anger, fear, and resentment.

Unlike the fossilized gods outside the cemetery now, those fossilized gods had bodies that seemed to have been crystallized in translucent forms. Jalin had never even heard of Fossilization capable of achieving such effects.

Worse still, there was massive power hidden inside those fossilized gods’ bodies. It made it seem like they could have been revived at any moment.

Jalin didn’t dare get close. What happened next shocked her even more. There was a god more than half a mile tall among the gods nearest to the head of the giant. Its body shone with bright holy light. Suddenly, the entire space became filled with his divine power as a whiff of divine fire burned.

Jalin had wanted to escape before seeing the huge moon in the sky cast a bolt of purple lightning. It accurately hit the burning divine fire, which was unable to resist and quickly snuffed out.

Pained moans and low roars were heard from within the crystallized god’s body. The extinguished divine fire was turned into pure energy and absorbed by the huge moon in the sky.

There were few other gods, all of whom were less than 1,600 feet tall, attempting to stand up. The crystals on the surface of their bodies were heard cracking and shattering.

The moon cast several bolts of purple lightning again. It suppressed the gods on the ground, scattering the built-up energies within their bodies and absorbing them.

The head at the peak suddenly opened its mouth and roared. The moon in the sky unleashed thinner bolts of lightning in higher amounts, hitting the fossilized gods on the ground.

Jalin was shaken enough by the head of the giant to drop to the floor. She saw those gods with frightening amount of energy in their bodies being completely subdued by the bolts of lightning. The energies within their bodies was dissipated by the attacks.

The giant was dead, but its will did not. The gods that killed the giant were eternally sealed in fossilized bodies, bound to provide power for the cemetery.
