Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 1045: Making More Space

Krynic had listened to the words of his fellow allies. It was better for him to head back to where the others were. It meant heading through the jungle, a dangerous task for him to do on his own.

However, after having been in the jungle for a while, it would be an easy task, and he had learned the tricks and tips of navigating through it. Being a high middle-stage warrior also meant that if it came to it, he could run away if necessary. Although he didnʼt want to admit it, there was currently no baggage of other warriors slowing him down.

The journey through the jungle was easier than he expected, as the beasts seemed to have all disappeared from the nearby areas. Before he knew it, he had reached where the ship they had arrived in was. Here, he had met up with Lyon, along with several other Light Faction warriors.

Some had decided to head back to the ship, while others were traveling with Lyon, but there werenʼt many-around only ten individuals had managed to survive.

”What should we do?” Krynic asked. ”There has to be a limit to these things, although something has clearly startled the beasts in the jungle so they arenʼt focused on us. At any time, the whole group could be attacked again.”

”Itʼs only been two days in total since we have been on the island. Itʼs not enough time to count anyone gone or enough time to say that they wonʼt be out of there,” Lyon replied.

Krynic had given a few details about how they might have discovered a place that likely had the Golden Globe but didnʼt explain who was there. He feared it would complicate things for the time being.

As they looked out in the distance, Krynic was staring at the location where he was not too long ago. Imagining just what was going on for them to take so long. Were they fighting against each other, were they trapped, or were things just more complicated than he could imagine?

As he placed his hand on the edge of the wooden ship, he could feel his hand vibrating. As they continued to look out, several birds started to fly up into the air.

”This rumbling—can you feel it? Itʼs Qi!” Lyon said, rushing over, and so did the other warriors.

”Qi, is it coming from that mountain all the way in the center of the island!” Krynic claimed. ”How can we feel it from all the way here? Just what is going on?”

If it was Qi, it meant it was coming from a person and an individual. If that was the case, they had more power than any of them could imagine. Before they knew it, a golden light started to cover the entire mountain.

They could see a glowing light almost shoot up and pierce the sky. The energy started to fade and disappear, and when it completely disappeared, Krynic and Lyon were constantly looking at the site.

”Itʼs gone... the whole thing, itʼs gone!” Lyon shouted.

The large mountain that once stood in the center, along with the greenery and trees that were around it, had all disappeared with the glow. It was there one moment and now it was gone as if it had been pulled out of midair.

”Is that where the others were? Is that where they were!” Lyon asked, as a member of the Dawnblade Clan and one of the Elders he knew that most were in the center according to Krynic.

If an attack so large could get rid of an entire mountain, then what about the people that were there as well?

In the center of the jungle where the ruins were once placed, and the fight was taking place, Raze stood there with his sword by his side. He was breathing heavily, as the attack was somewhat unexpected.

Seeing the large surge of Qi being flung in all directions, he had protected himself with his own Qi. Thankfully, though, the Qi wasnʼt as condensed as the attacks that would actually be used towards him.

”Ah, thatʼs a lot better, right?” Mosak said, stabbing the bottom of his spear into the ground. Now, the area around them, about a mile or so out, just appeared as an empty wasteland. Quite a shallow crater had been made as it pushed things to the side, but it wasnʼt too deep to the point where they were sunken into the middle.

If there was one thing that was impressive, it was the platform that they were on. It was still in place, solid just like before.

”Come on, why the long face?” Mosak asked. ”With all of our fighting, there would be falling rocks and holes being made all over the place. I just thought there should be a more appropriate area for our fight, donʼt you agree?”

After finishing his sentence, Mosak charged forward. The bottom of his spear dragged through the ground, and he flung up a large part of the flooring, creating a giant wave of mud in the air. Raze swung his sword using the Crimson Slash to cut through a part of the large wave but was unable to see where Mosak was before he appeared by his side, hitting him and causing his body to bounce across the floor a couple of times.

Raze quickly got up and was on the back foot, clearly in the fight.

As for the others, due to the Qi being used not being directed at them, they were also able to block the attack from hurting them. It still drained a lot of their energy, and there wasnʼt much that they could do in terms of helping out with the fight in the first place.

”Well, I guess itʼs my cue to get out of here. Thereʼs no point in getting hurt,” Red claimed. ”As for you Light Faction warriors, I will be paying a visit in the future.”

Zon took a step forward as he saw Red scurry towards the jungle, running away from the entire group, but then he stopped completely.

”Youʼre not going to go after him? Wasnʼt he your goal?” Lince asked.

”He is, but... I promised that I would help Raze, and if my system is correct, with the way he is now, he will lose this fight,” Zon answered. ”But, I believe I may have found a way that will

allow me to help him.”
