A Divine Presence Hovers Three Inches Above the Head, Level-Five Magic / Intercepting the Remnants

Buzz buzz buzz!

A moment later, Lu Jun felt one ghostly face after another assaulting his mental will; there were humans and Demon Beast, all staring at him with resentment.

The Sea Demon God Race have slaughtered countless creatures, devouring their wills and souls, and are similar to a soul-gathering monster, formed by stitching together multiple souls.

Searching for the memories of such Demon Beast requires extreme caution, otherwise one might be warped themselves.

But who is Lu Jun? He withstood the Negative Emotions impact of the Ancient King Armor Robe, so these things are nothing to him.

He remained calm as he searched for useful information from his complex and fragmented memories.

Soon, Lu Jun learned a shocking secret, and was momentarily stunned, muttering to himself, "No wonder they attacked the Water Elemental Spirit; it turns out they were preparing to invade the land."

The Sea Demon Empire invaded five or six years later, but there were signs long before that.

It should be noted that the Pacific Ocean is vast and boundless. It is not only the powerful Sea Demon Empire that will invade human land. Before invading human land, they will definitely have to deal with their enemies one by one, and also eliminate all the threatening points along the way.

Unfortunately, the merfolk happened to be blocking the route of the Sea Demon Empire's invasion of Japan.

In peacetime, it's fine to communicate and ask for passage, but in wartime, even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance of obstruction, the merfolk tribe must be incorporated into or exterminated.

However, the Water Element Spirit Clan values peace above all else, and their patriarch, a near- Sub-Emperor, refused the invitation from the ruler of the Sea Demon Empire.

Thus, a purge was launched, and Water Element Spirit from all over the world were hunted down.

After all, a race with strong control over water elements and the ability to merge with human mages already has a way to die.

"The ocean truly lives up to its reputation as the most turbulent region, teeming with Demon Beast dozens of times more numerous than those found in the inland areas. The Four Oceans are home to so many Water Element Spirit, capable of communicating with each other, and even possessing an ancestor who is a sub -Sub-Emperor."

Lu Jun was quite surprised by this information.

The Water Element Spirit have different reproduction and living habits than the Fire Element Holy Spirit on land, such as the Flame Princess. Due to the fierce competition and abundant resources in the ocean, they live in groups and unite against external threats.

Every season, the members would migrate collectively, dispersing to various places in the vast Water Element of Warm Spring to grow and cultivate. Every once in a while, they would drain the resources of the land and then set off to relocate again.

Meanwhile, the Water Element Spirit of the Mermaid Sea, having received a warning of the crisis within their community, had already taken advantage of the ocean currents and escaped.

As for where he went, the Sea Demon God Race didn't know either. They were just about to launch a siege when the Holy Spirit had already escaped.

"But the Water Elemental Spirit is in a bad situation right now. A large number of its people have died, and the rest are being relentlessly pursued. Meanwhile, the ancestor of that Sub-Emperor is being besieged and intercepted by several imperial Emperor sent by the Empire's ruler."

Lu Jun frowned. It was highly likely that this creature would become extinct, which would probably dash his hopes of forming a contract with Water Element Spirit.

"The Sea Demon Empire has truly committed countless evil deeds."

He sighed inwardly, knowing all this but powerless to do anything about it.

The Sea Demon Empire gradually expanded and incorporated other powers, which will be reflected in the future battle in Magic City. The Mediterranean Evil Flood Dragon, the Demon Ruins White Spider Emperor, and other Emperor who should have been in various parts of the Pacific Ocean Rim are now under the command of the Sea Monster Overlord.

There was no point in staying any longer, so he decided to return.

Lu Jun urged the Water Element's waves, his body slowly rising to the surface of the Mermaid Sea. Looking westward, a magnificent wall and dam appeared and disappeared in the hazy sea mist, rising and falling like a majestic mountain range.

Then, with a thought, he sketched Curse Element constellation, summoned the 'Black Impermanence' Sky Ghost Fiend, which enveloped him and transformed into a vast expanse of dark clouds and gloomy winds, flying mightily towards the direction of the Japanese Sea Battle City.

Not long after, Lu Jun arrived at the Sea Battle City.

At this moment, the Tide had receded, and even the first block of the city was revealed. The Japanese monks discussed among themselves, quite astonished.

"That's strange, the Sea Monster are unusually quiet today, they haven't come to invade again."

Seeing this, Lu Jun smiled without saying a word. In the great battle in the Mermaid Sea, he had briefly wiped out Sea Monster. The feedback here naturally made the Sea Monster's offensive seem to have stopped for a while, allowing the Sea Battle City to catch its breath.

However, with the existence of ocean currents, cannon fodder will continue to pour out, and it won't be long before they make a comeback.

A moment after Lu Jun left, the Japanese monks who were still there exclaimed in surprise. They saw a large, pale red tide surging in, carrying with it a large number of Sea Monster corpses.

"It seems a great battle Sea Monster monsters has taken place in the distant seas."

"That's what the experienced old hunter said in surprise."

Meanwhile, Lu Jun ignored the strange phenomena occurring in the Sea Battle City and returned to his temporary residence, his brows furrowed.

The Water Element Spirit has failed to be found, so we can only wait and see what the Zu Family says. Hopefully, we can find one before the water Elemental Spirit race is wiped out.

Fortunately, he didn't lose out this time; in fact, he gained a lot. Putting aside the Demon Beast Remnant Soul and essences he harvested, the Water Element Crystal alone were extremely valuable.

He can immediately use the Na Crystal to enhance his Water Element; don't forget the Zhao family still owes him two or three Water Element Soul Seed.

Once the Tidal Spirit Seed has continuously devoured several Soul Seed, it can at least reach the peak level of the Soul Seed, enhancing its magical effects sixfold and gaining a domain with four effects.

Moreover, Lu Jun possesses the Water Repelling Pearl, which, with a 1.5x base enhancement, a Water Element spell reaches a full nine times its original power, equivalent to a Lesser Heavenly Seed.

A high-level Lesser Heavenly Seed is invincible; anyone who comes will be slaughtered.

Once they reach the peak of the high-level realm, they might be able to rival a single-element Super Rank being.

After a moment's thought, Lu Jun couldn't wait any longer. He needed to go back to China, because only Feng Zhoulong from the Demon Capital knew how to make the Devouring Seed.

However, before that, his mentor from the Nationalist government called and ordered him to intercept fleeing Blue Robe Deacon of the Black Vatican on the west coast of Japan, killing as many as possible.

Chapter 303 There is a god three inches above your head, Level 5 magic

Lu Jun smiled slightly upon receiving the information from the National Academy's tutor.

The Black Vatican has indeed fled towards Japan, presumably seeking a place beyond the reach of the Kyushu authorities to regroup and plan for the future.

Unexpectedly, he was still in Sea Battle City.

However, the instructors from the National Academy also instructed that they should do their best, and that protecting themselves was the most important thing. If they encountered a Super Rank expert, they should not hesitate to turn around and leave.

"I'm not afraid of anything Super Rank; I can even instantly kill someone in the early Super Rank of the God Ascension State."

Lu Jun thought to himself, with five high-level elements, and curses and water at the High-level Two, his accumulated foundation was quite considerable. The White Tiger God Ascension was vaguely approaching the level of a legitimate monarch.

He has already reached a certain level in magic, but his physical body is still lacking.

Once all the high-level units are at their peak, they will likely possess the combat power of a true monarch.

He then thought of Palm Leader Wu Ku of the Black Vatican, wondering if Wu Ku would come to Japan. This turtle shell might not be strong in combat, but its defense was top-notch.

"But under the attack of the Metal Element, everything comes to naught."

Lu Jun was in high spirits. He was always craving Wu Ku's Water Buddha Beads, and even the talents of those who suffered from Water Element Calamity Bringer.

The former is easy to say, but Lu Jun is unsure whether he can obtain the latter.

It should be noted that there are ways to strip away talent. There is a case in the original work where two young elders of the Mu Clan had a talent called "Phoenix Luan Power" which was drained by the Grand Elder.

Moreover, if he wants to compete with the ruler of the Sea Demon Empire in the future, he must cultivate his Water Element to its peak and become the pinnacle of power. He hopes to find a way to obtain the Liju technique.

Soon, Lu Jun set off and returned to Kokuma City, where Yanming Temple was located, the next morning. It is also on the west coast of Japan.

The Black Vatican and its followers have not yet crossed the ocean to arrive.

Taking advantage of his free time, Lu Jun rented a hotel room to cultivate for a while, taking stock of the various essences absorbed by the White Tiger Pendant.

The heavyweight is undoubtedly the Commander Essence Soul of the Sea Demon God Race; it's of excellent quality and is estimated to fetch over 200 million if sold.

The number of Servant-level Spirit Essence has increased to [over one hundred], the number of General Essence Soul is [eight], and the Commander-level Remnant Soul is [three].

After careful consideration, he decided to upgrade his basic Mind Element and Curse Element Primary Magic to level five.

It seems like saving up to upgrade to the High-level Four magic is a long way off. He's only just reached the High-level Two, and there's still some time before he reaches the third level. He might as well just unlock the Primary Magic first.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Inside the room, Lu Jun carefully guided eight General Essence Soul and three Commander-level Remnant Soul into his Spiritual World.

In the center of the two star rivers, one black and red and the other transparent, the seven core stars shone brightly, crystal clear, and nourished, expanding inch by inch, transforming into fifth-level stars!

Each one is about the Size Change a fist, as bright as a star, dotting the dark universe like stars surrounding the moon, impossible to ignore.

The next moment, Lu Jun comprehended the fifth-level initial stage of Mind Element and Curse Element Primary Magic.

He was overjoyed because these two skills were unexpectedly practical, leaning more towards support, and could be used until he reached the pinnacle of his cultivation. They even complemented each other and could be used in combination.

The fifth-level curse, Primary Magic, is named [Blood Abyss - Fearful Haze - Thousand Mile Soul Lock]!

As long as there is an item tainted with the enemy's aura as a medium, the power of curses can be used to cast spells on the enemy from afar. The terrifying ghost face will linger and allow the attacker to spy on the victim from thousands of miles away.

Hence the name "Thousand Mile Soul Lock".

Honestly, Lu Jun doesn't lack the damage from level 5 magic at all. It's this kind of unpredictable tactic of observing the enemy from afar that makes him so difficult to defend against.

The same applies to the fifth level of Mind Magic, named [Spirit Ripple - True Name Precognition].

As the name suggests, if someone mentions Lu Jun's name, he will have a vague premonition that he knows who is talking about him, and at the same time, all the emotional changes during this time will be reflected in his mind.

Whether the intention is good or bad, it is immediately obvious.

This means that Lu Jun will no longer be afraid of being plotted against.

Of course, it is ultimately only Primary Magic; the upper limit of the two skills depends on his cultivation level.

At most, it's undetectable to ordinary Super Rank.

"Even so, it's still incredible. Using two spells together would be like having a god watching over you from above!"

Lu Jun was amazed. In the future, once someone calls his name, [True Name Precognition] will be activated passively, and the two will be linked by telepathy across thousands of miles. Immediately afterwards, he can use the Curse Element [Thousand Mile Soul Lock] to observe on the spot.

He was a ghost, an observer; just imagining that scene is thrilling.

His enemies gathered together, plotting to assassinate him with great enthusiasm, while the man himself witnessed everything from afar, a situation that could be described as loudly plotting right under his nose—a truly absurd situation.

Most importantly, Lu Jun had a vague feeling that these two spells could be used in conjunction with [Soul Evasion].

Following the connection between the Thousand Mile Soul Lock and the True Name Precognition, in an instant, the thunder of slaughter descends, and if someone in the world prays to him, the "True God" will unleash his great power.

"Wow! This smells like the Antarctic Rooftop."

Lu Jun gasped, realizing that this method was vaguely similar to the abilities of the Dark King and the Antarctic Rooftop.

Or perhaps spiritual practice itself is a path to God Ascension.

Whether it's the Three Great Rooftops, the ten supreme rulers, or Athena, the Heavenly Father, or Cardinal Leng Jue, they all mention that they are walking on the path of God.

Unfortunately, Lu Jun's cultivation level is not high enough to reach such a terrifying level yet, but he will continue to work hard and achieve that level sooner or later.

"To rashly send Soul Evasion thousands of miles away is far too dangerous. What if one can't return to the body? Wouldn't that mean certain death?"

Lu Jun pondered this for a moment, then came up with a solution. That's right, he has Space Element. If he cultivates it to a high level, he can imprint a spatial channel on his soul and instantly return to his body.

His eyes grew brighter and brighter. When he became Emperor-level in the future, he would be able to sense when his friends and family were in danger, and his will would descend from afar. If there were any enemies with ill intentions, he could also punish them.

"The magic I'm practicing is becoming increasingly mutated, as if it's acquiring some kind of 'divinity'?"

Lu Jun pondered that perhaps it was the influence of the Ancient King Armor Robe and Ding Yumian's talent as a person Mind Calamity.

Other Mind Element mages and Curse Element mages probably have different level 4 and 5 spells than him.

"By the way, with the Curse Element Thousand Mile Soul Lock, if I can detect the aura of Water Element Spirit, can I use that to trace their movements?"

Lu Jun's mind raced, and he quickly took out the [Water Element Crystal] from his pocket, silently sensing it, and activated the Curse Element magic Thousand Mile Soul Lock.

Sizzle!

A moment later, wisps of ethereal, transparent energy rose from the deep blue crystal. Under the influence of the cursed magic, they transformed into black and red smoke, twisting into a ghostly face shape in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, it vanished into the void, disappearing from the spot.

Suddenly, Lu Jun felt a strange sensation in his mind; his mental vision seemed to switch to another perspective, rapidly ascending.

A vast blue sea appeared before my eyes, with sunny beaches along the coastline where many white people were playing, and there were also many iconic buildings.

Lu Jun tried to see more clearly, but the next second an angry shriek echoed in his mind, shaking his spirit and severing their connection.

"That was a water Elemental Spirit, and it actually also has Mind Element. Has it been discovered?"

Upon seeing this, Lu Jun's face paled slightly, utterly astonished.

Chapter 304 Intercepting the Remnants

Lu Jun seemed to be deep in thought. Besides his primary talent, the Elemental Spirit would also have another secondary talent to complement it.

Just like how Flame Princess awakens Space Element after reaching adulthood, the Water Elemental Spirit in legends, whether Eastern merfolk or Western Mermaid, all possess abilities such as Mind Temptation through their songs.

Perhaps the Mind Element is the secondary department of the Water Element Spirit that he is pursuing.

"It's just one image, I couldn't see it clearly, I'll have to search for its location later."
