After reaching the Legendary-realm and above, the difference between every level in terms of power wasn’t something that could be made up for with numerical advantage. That was because the competition was no longer about the strength of magical power or mental strength, but rather the understanding of Rule Power. This was like a group of primary-school kids comparing with a university student in terms of general knowledge. 1,000 primary-school kids wouldn’t be a match for a university student. Vidas was a level-22 Legendary-mage who possessed a powerful nature Magical Domain. Even if Lin Li was a level-20 Legendary powerhouse, and had the help of a level-21 Crimson Dragon, the difference in abilities still couldn’t be made up for.

This was also why the Dark Blade that possessed three Legendary powerhouses couldn’t do anything to the Malfa Family, who had only one Legendary powerhouse. The difference in power between Legendary powerhouses couldn’t be made up for using numbers, even if it was just a difference of one level or even a tiny difference in understanding of Rule Power.

William was very clear on this. Hence, he wasn’t too optimistic about the situation even after the appearance of the Crimson Dragon. Its appearance could at most increase the Mage Felic’s chance of survival, but it was still impossible for Mage Felic to win this battle.

Since even William could see this, Vidas, who was on the other side of the bet, was even more aware of it. Vidas was indeed quite shocked at the appearance of the Crimson Dragon. He had thought Lin Li would use potion to increase his abilities, and hadn’t expected him to summon a Crimson Dragon out of nowhere. However, to be very honest, the effect of summoning a Crimson Dragon was even worse than increasing his own abilities.

“Just a Crimson Dragon! Do you really think you can burn my entire Nature Domain?”

A level-21 Crimson Dragon was nothing to Vidas. One should not think that fire was definitely the Domain’s natural enemy upon seeing the lush forest. The so-called restraint of elements was never absolute. More importantly, it depended on what kind of abilities their users possessed.

…Especially so for Nature Magic, which was actually the amalgamation of various elemental rules, and fire element was one of the mandatory items among those. The essence of Nature Magic could be said to be a display of World Rules. It was every mage’s life goal to create a domain that was similar to the world. Even though the Nature Magical Domain was just based on the combination of derived rules, the magnitude of its Rule Power shouldn’t be underestimated.

Of course, nothing in this world was perfect—there were always two sides to everything. Although the integration of Rules of many elements could form a powerful Small World Rule, it was much harder for the creator of this nature Magical Domain to analyze the essence of every elemental Rule deeply compared to realizing the fundamental elemental Rules directly. Hence, it was 100 times harder for the creator of a Nature Magical Domain to understand the essence of World Rules via the Small World Rule compared to an ordinary Legendary-mage.

In order for a Legendary-mage who created a Nature Magical Domain to understand the essence of World Rules via the Small World Rule, he had to analyze the derived Rule of every single element, and use this analysis to trace back to its origin—the fundamental elemental Rules. However, immense effort was required in order to gain a thorough understanding of just one Rule, not mentioning the various derived rules from the Small World Rule.

There was yet another way. That was to constantly strengthen one’s own Nature Magical Domain. Once the Nature Magical Domain was powerful enough, the Small World Rule would naturally become the true World Rule, and its owner wouldn’t even have to analyze the essence of elemental Rules at all.

These two ways required talent and hard work, respectively. However, both also needed a similar condition—good luck. Vidas chose the second way as his bloodline of the Helios Family enabled him to gain more from his hard work. The effect of the bloodline was still very limited. Even though he could gain many times more than others from his hard work, he still plateaued at level-22.

 In order to improve his Nature Magical Domain as a whole, he needed a treasure which contained powerful and pure nature energy. Vidas had put all his hopes on the branch now. This wasn’t just a wild guess; rather, he had a strong sense that this branch would be the key to his improvement.

Not to mention that Lin Li was weaker than him, Vidas would have given his all to seize this rare opportunity even if his opponent had been stronger than him.

The appearance of the Crimson Dragon didn’t affect Vidas. Fire magic couldn’t pose any threat to the Nature Magical Domain created by a level-22 Legendary-mage. A series of gigantic tree men leaped into the air as if there were springs in their feet. If one were to look at it from afar, he would think that there was a locusts plague in the Harvest Square. However, the spectators sitting in the square watched everything with shock and fear. They feared that the shield of the square would be broken, but they also didn’t want to miss this exciting battle.

In the air, a scorching dragon’s breath swept past the attacking tree men, and engulfed them with flames. However, the tree men didn’t just turn into ash this time. They continued to attack with their burning bodies like torches, appearing to be even more frightening.

The Crimson Dragon roared in wrath, and swept out with its muscular tail. The torch-like tree men all fell into pieces with a thud. Explosive sounds came from the sky like fireworks, and splashes of fire immediately followed. The Humerus Wyrm that had integrated the Heart of the Fallen had completely recovered the combat instincts of a Wyrm, and didn’t require Lin Li instructions at all.

Lin Li stood on the Crimson Dragon’s back steadily. The dark clouds above his head loomed even lower. Due to the shielding field of the Harvest Square, the view in front of the spectators’ eyes was rather bizarre. Lush forest covered the ground, while dark clouds only covered the portion of the sky outside the shield1.

Everything withered in the cold winter. Crystal-clear snow fell from the sky, and the lush green was instantly covered by white snow. Everything seemed really beautiful, but this was the collision between Magical Domains. It was a competition between the understanding of Rule Power of mages, and a real battle between Legendary powerhouses.

However, seeing that Lin Li had displayed his Magical Domain, other than those people purely watching for fun, everyone with some understanding of Magical Domains was rather confused.

The Frost Magical Domain wasn’t unfamiliar to many, as it was the first domain that the majority of Legendary-mages would create. In other words, the Frost Magical Domain was an extremely ordinary, fundamental, and primitive Magical Domain.

This was because what mages, especially human mages, learned the most before reaching the Legendary-realm were ice magic spells. Hence, it was easier for mages to understand the Rules of the ice element.

Many people present knew about this, but this didn’t mean that they looked down on Legendary-mages who used Frost Domains. After all, many of them hadn’t even reached Legendary-realm themselves. The real reason why they were confused by Lin Li’s action was because the opponent he faced was a Legendary-mage who’d created a Nature Magical Domain.

Although Nature Magical Domain wasn’t exclusive to the elves, almost nobody could match the talent of the elves in terms of learning Nature Magic. Nature Magical Domain was also called a Small World Domain as it included the derived Rules of all fundamental elemental Rules—earth, fire, water, wind, light, and darkness. This formed a Magical Domain that possessed the fetus of a world.

Comparing Frost Magical Domain to the Nature Magical Domain, the difference in strength was evident. Hence, the spectators all felt that Lin Li should have sacrificed the Crimson Dragon to attack Vidas by surprise in order to get a chance to escape. After all, a 20-year-old Legendary-mage still had a long way to go. Though nobody wanted to acknowledge it, there was a high chance that Lin Li might reach the Sanctuary-realm eventually. With such a bright future ahead, why should Lin Li ruin his future just for some reputation?

Vidas originally had the same thought as the spectators. The frost Rule, which was also a derived rule from the fundamental elemental Rules, had no advantage compared to Natural Magical Domain. However, Vidas’ heart trembled when these two Magical Domains really collided.

This Frost Domain definitely was somehow wrong! Vidas didn’t know what the problem was, but the obvious truth was that there was some lagging when he used the Rule Power as the controller of his Nature Magical Domain. It felt as if he had gone back to the time when he’d first created the Nature Magical Domain. However, it hadn’t happened for a very long time.

It was utterly unbelievable that a simple Frost Domain could develop resistance to his Nature Magical Domain. Vidas didn’t dare to underestimate this young human mage anymore. No matter what hid behind this Frost Domain, the undeniable truth was that Vidas felt it more and more difficult to use the Domain’s power, and was unable to bring out his true potential.

Obviously, Lin Li hadn’t just used a simple Frost Domain. The appearance of this Frost Domain was just to make way for the Light and Darkness Domain like before. The two pieces of the debris of the stars Lin Li had gotten—Holy Light and Gloomy Dark—had helped him to create this Light and Darkness Domain with the Rule Power they contained.
