Chapter 1086

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 .
