I do the same thing that @owned suggested.

I go into the Spells folder and find which spells can be abused in the event like: Magic Wall, Earth Wall, Invisible, etc. and just add in a cancel if the player is in the event area:

Example:

data/spells/support/magic wall rune.lua
Code: 
local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_ENERGY)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_CREATEITEM, ITEM_MAGICWALL)

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
local fromPos, toPos = {x = 32204, y = 32186, z = 7}, {x = 32239, y = 32210, z = 7}
  if isInRange(getPlayerPosition(cid), fromPos, toPos) or isInRange(getPlayerPosition(cid), survival1, survival2)  then
          return false, doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You cannot use any runes in here.")
end
    return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

okay so
Code: 
 local fromPos, toPos = {x = 32204, y = 32186, z = 7}, {x = 32239, y = 32210, z = 7}
the first one is top left corner right? the other one is bottom right ?

jk it didnt work '-' i did what you told me and put the coordinates etc and yeah it works i cant use the spell or rune but guess what i cant use them at all like not even in temple =( this is what i did
Code: 
local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_ENERGY)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_CREATEITEM, 1497)

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
local fromPos, toPos = {x = 32524, y = 32614, z = 7}, {x = 32572, y = 32650, z = 7}
  if isInRange(getPlayerPosition(cid), fromPos, toPos) or isInRange(getPlayerPosition(cid), survival1, survival2)  then
          return false, doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "Você não pode usar esta runa aqui.")
end

Which TFS version do you use?

Try this:
Code: 
function onCastSpell(cid, var)
local fromPos, toPos = {x = 32524, y = 32614, z = 7}, {x = 32572, y = 32650, z = 7}
  if isInRange(getCreaturePosition(cid), fromPos, toPos) then
          return false, doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "Você não pode usar esta runa aqui.")
end
    return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

I changed getPlayerPosition(cid) to getCreaturePosition(cid)
I deleted or isInRange(getPlayerPosition(cid), survival1, survival2) because that wasn't meant to be part of your script. I forgot to delete it from my own spell script.

or go with doAddCondition(cid, condition)

All that's needed is to get rid of the second isInRange as far as you changing getPlayerPosition(cid) to getCreaturePosition(cid) is completely unneccessary considering he is trying to prevent Players from using said spells.
