Each insect swarm has a different audio frequency; the terrifying Super Rank Sound Element causes countless sound waves to overlap and attack simultaneously without interfering with each other.

Qazafi's move was incredibly effective; the sound waves penetrated everything, leaving no air untouched. Even insects, down to the cellular level, couldn't escape and all perished under the sound waves.

Seeing this, Mina smiled, feeling relieved.

The arrogant old man in black robes landed beside him and said lazily, "Old man, I'm a professional at exterminating insects."

Mina, completely disregarding the other party's attitude, said urgently, "Thank you, Elder Qazafi. Let's wipe out the Insect King as soon as possible."

"No problem."

Qazafi revealed a meaningful smile. Suddenly, Mina, who was flying halfway ahead, coughed up a mouthful of dark green blood and fell from mid-air in disbelief.

Moreover, after his incident, Super Rank mages in the surrounding departments began to experience strange changes one after another.

Only a dozen or so black-robed mages from the Poison Department remained unharmed, their faces beaming with smiles.

Cough, cough, cough, Elder Mina's face was pale, his forehead was glowing green, and he coughed repeatedly, clearly having been poisoned. Seeing Qazafi like this, he knew perfectly well that the other party was behind it.

"You! Damn it, why did you betray the Inca?"

Elder Mina was furious, his hair standing on end and his beard bristling, glaring at Qazafi.

Seeing this from afar, Lu Jun felt a sense of foreboding; the Bug Witch of the Poison Department had actually rebelled en masse!

Chapter 332 Forbidden Curse· Heavenly Kingdom's Sad Rainbow

Buzz buzz buzz!

Qazafi didn't take it seriously, sneered, and his expression changed, like a blank puppet on a string, yet also containing the arrogant smile of a petty person who had succeeded.

At this moment, his eyes reflected the Six-Eyed Evil Shadow, and the shadow behind him twisted and gradually expanded, rising up with bared fangs and claws, transforming into a majestic figure that resembled both an insect and a true dragon, possessing six eyes.

In an instant, an evil shadow rose up, as tall as a mountain, and Qazafi transformed into a Demon God figure capable of obscuring the light of the sun and moon! His invincible Emperor aura swept across the entire scene.

Thump, thump, a terrifying pressure enveloped the entire city, and magicians knelt in horror, as if they had seen God.

Including Lu Jun, whose bones were cracking all over his body, he couldn't help but be convinced and knelt down. At the crucial moment, the White Tiger Pendant around his neck shone with platinum brilliance, and the Nasca Gem in his arms gleamed with azure light.

Even within his Spiritual World, the black and red cursed galaxy frozen in time and space shone brightly, and the Ancient King Armor Robe trembled violently, not even the strange patterns of the Eye of Time and Space could stop this reaction.

Lu Jun regained his senses and refused to kneel. He struggled to straighten his back and stand up. He watched this scene in shock, swallowed hard, and knew from experience that this was the majesty of Emperor.

Even when a parasite, a mere avatar of thought, is sent from a distance of tens of thousands of miles, the Emperor's domineering nature is still on full display.

"Six-Sealed Evil Eye Bug Emperor, it's you!"

Elder Mina gritted his teeth, filled with resentment. "The Lord of the Amazon's top general, the source of countless Gu worm, anyone who cultivates the Poison Element Bug Witch style could potentially control him from behind."

"I should have guessed this sooner; I shouldn't have taken any chances."

The Insect Emperor-possessed Qazafi was indifferent, revealing no emotion whatsoever, only an innate belief that he despised billions of living beings, a ruler and a destroyer.

It played the Bone Flute again, and the thick layer of three-inch-long insect corpses that had covered the entire city suddenly trembled. As if responding to a call, the Bug Gu broke out of their cocoons one after another.

Hissing and buzzing!

In the blink of an eye, the overwhelming Bug Tide revived once again. This time, having undergone the baptism of war, it Nirvana Rebirth, entering a berserk state, and its combat power soared significantly.

Furthermore, it seems that with enough of their own kind laid the groundwork and the consumption of massive amounts of matter, a number of newly born ruling and monarch insectoid races were actually born.

Currently, the Super Rank mages have been poisoned and are unable to fight anymore, while the Bug Witch have collectively rebelled, and the Emperor has descended from afar, making destruction seem inevitable.

Lu Jun's expression was grave. Was this the invasion war of the Demonic Beast Empire? It was truly beyond human capability.

Unfortunately, the few forbidden spellcasters of the Inca Empire were all concentrated in the Andes Mountains, using the natural barrier to barely resist the unstoppable attack of seven or eight Emperors, leaving their heartland vulnerable.

They simply couldn't spare any more resources to stop the Bug Tide; their only option was to contain those above the Supreme Monarch, leaving the rest to their fate.

They thought the core forces of the empire could hold out, but the Insect Emperor seized the opportunity and detonated a long-buried landmine, destroying the core of the area.

Then the Insect Emperor will use the corpses of countless humans to breed Bug Tide, working from within and without to destroy the Inca civilization in one fell swoop.

Lu Jun was secretly anxious, but there was nothing he could do. He was like a bystander watching a CG scene unfold.

Just when the Inca Empire had no chance of turning the tide, a sigh suddenly echoed from the depths of the Elder Council.

Upon hearing this, Qazafi's expression shifted dramatically. True to his confidence, he exclaimed, "This... could that old man still be alive?!"

"Forbidden Curse: The Heavenly Kingdom's Sad Rainbow!"

The mysterious voice transformed, becoming solemn and dignified, as if judging all the evils of the world, yet also filled with compassion for all living beings.

Suddenly, a sun rose slowly in the sky, completely replacing the dim environment obscured by the vast Bug Tide, illuminating everything clearly.

In the center of the blazing sun, a magnificent and sacred gate opened, and endless light poured out, engulfing heaven and earth.

Rainbow light, like silk threads, poured down from the heavens.

The boundless light formed countless solar altars, layered upon each other, suspended high in the sky, resembling a sacred mountain, from which the sounds of countless sacrifices echoed.

Each sun altar is composed of thousands of slanted rainbow filaments, creating a cascading waterfall of light and layered peaks. The rare rainbows after the rain seem to be the most common embellishment in the heavenly altars.

A magnificent temple suddenly appeared above the Space-Time Town, its iridescent light shimmering and waterfalls cascading like silver, as if a grand palace comparable to a human city had risen from nowhere, leaving no place for evil spirits to hide!

The heavenly rainbow light descended like a waterfall of Light Screen, billions of rays of brilliance falling, each one like a spear piercing the world, capable of destroying everything.

Within the dome, it appeared as if the sky had been devoured by a rainbow of light, leaving behind an enormous hole.

Silver, gold, copper, and multicolored light transformed into a river of light hotter than molten lava and more violent than giant waves, wantonly obliterating every inch of the Mortal World's Bug Gu, leaving none behind.

"Aaaaaah!!"

At the very center, Qazafi, who was bearing the most power of the forbidden spell, screamed in agony. Holy light burst forth from his pupils, his ears, his face, and his throat, striking the dark, demonic shadows!

The old man was in extreme pain, and the black shadow of the Six-Eyed Evil Insect Emperor in his pupils and back was gradually obliterated.

Lu Jun stood there, awe-inspiring, bathed in sunlight. This was Forbidden Curse Magic Light Element magic spell, Heavenly Kingdom's Sad Rainbow.

He originally thought he would only have the chance to witness the power of the forbidden spell when the Sea Demon Empire appeared, but he never expected to see it in this strange space-time.

Even the spots on Lu Jun's hands that had been eroded by the Ancient King Armor Robe faded away one by one, and the Negative Emotions in his subconscious were dispelled. He felt much more relaxed and relieved, and the effect was even more amazing than the purification of Lu Wei Xi, a victim of the Light Element Calamity Bringer.

This wave of illness extended his health by at least several months.

When the boundless light disappeared, the city was spotless, filled with the warm scent of sunshine, the air was refreshing, and all the insect corpses turned to ashes under the forbidden spell, thus being purified once again.

The complexions of those poisoned at the Super Rank returned to normal, and the dozen or so black-robed Super Rank poison experts from the Poison Department, led by Qazafi, all disappeared.

If it weren't for the collapsed buildings and signs of battle scattered throughout the city, as well as the large number of fallen mages, no one would believe that a Bug Tide had just broken out.

Having survived the ordeal, the Inca magicians, now fully recovered, rejoiced and cheered loudly, celebrating the victory of the Elder Council.

Elder Mina felt no joy, only sorrow. He knew that with the lifespan of that forbidden spellcaster, he was no longer able to use magic, and this attack would likely end his life soon.

As their last card to play, reserved for absolute necessity, the Amazon Empire had already tested them out. They had no more trump cards left, and their demise was drawing ever closer.

He didn't say much; surviving yet another disaster was something to celebrate.

Mina glanced at Lu Jun in the distance and said in a deep voice, "Little Lu Jun, whether you're ready or not, we have to start the experiment."

Chapter 333 The Power of Time and Space

Lu Jun's spirits lifted; he knew the main event was about to begin.

"I am ready," he said solemnly. "I will not let you down."

Elder Mina, her face etched with exhaustion, was slightly relieved upon hearing this and said decisively, "Then there's no time to lose, I'll take you there now."

He then handed over the finishing touches to the other elders and rushed back to the Elder Council' headquarters with Lu Jun.

This time, the two didn't go to the Summoning Institute, but instead entered the adjacent Space Institute, a silver-white, exquisite, and simple spire.

Inside the hall, Lu Jun saw the dashing, dark-skinned beauty, Putana, covered in insect blood, yet her expression remained calm, her demeanor sharp and ruthless, inspiring respect.

Clearly, the other side also participated in the Amazon Bug Tide attack just now.

"Father." Putana looked at Elder Mina, then glanced at Lu Jun beside her, her gaze softening as she respectfully said, "The space priests are all ready."

Elder Mina stroked his beard, his eyes scanning the two of them repeatedly, and sighed, "You've had a hard time, Putana."

Lu Jun noticed Mina's scrutiny, but remained expressionless, lowering his head and pretending to be dead. He had already heard during his time living in the Elder Council that Mina intended to matchmake Putana with him, 'Lu Jun'.

However, he simply wouldn't accept it. Not only would he feel nothing, but this world is also a mixture of reality and illusion, Karma are too great to be involved in too deeply.

Mina seemed to realize that now was not the time for romance; at least, they should wait until the demonic calamity subsided.

The old man's expression turned serious, and he asked Lu Jun one last time, "Are you really sure about this?"

Lu Jun disagreed, and instead urged, "Please begin as soon as possible."

"Good!" Mina said in a deep voice, "The Empire is proud of you. Regardless of success or failure, you are a hero of the Indians."

As the three stepped into the core area of Space Institute, Lu Jun was greeted by a circular living room, surrounded by pure silver walls on all sides, making it airtight.

At the center stood a stone altar, surrounded by several priests in silver robes. They held up clusters of silver light in their hands, their foreheads bulging with veins and their faces covered in sweat.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that what the priests of the Space Institute were holding was not a ball of light, but a small, three-dimensional space in the shape of a ring, outlined with simple silver curves, with a dark, transparent, condensed liquid flowing inside.

"This is...?"

Lu Jun was astonished. Putana, who was beside him, explained, "These are the sealed spacetime powers. When the Empire first obtained the Sacred Eye of Time and Space, it tried to break through them by force, which caused a great reaction from the Divine Eye."

"The energy released was fortunately collected by a forbidden spellcasting Great Mage of the Space Element for research purposes."

"But the power of spacetime is too difficult to preserve. We have discovered that it is difficult to seal any matter in the world, and considerable losses are incurred in the process. The only way to contain it is by human effort using a small, sealed space."

"That's why we say that the Space Element Magic System is the most compatible with the Sacred Eye of Time and Space."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun's lips twitched, unsure how to respond. "What a stupid method! It has the research style of a primitive, idealistic person."

"So what results have you achieved?"

Lu Jun asked casually.

Unexpectedly, Elder Mina pondered for a moment, then said awkwardly, "It's just using the power of spacetime to conduct various practical experiments, such as infusing it into matter to give it some spacetime properties, for example, to rewind and repair it."

"Well, we've tried using it on mages before, and we found that other Magic System can't recover from the effects of spacetime energy, but Space Element can recover no matter what."

"The pioneer's Space Element initially froze, preventing any progress in cultivation. However, it seems that as time passed, the energy dissipated, and it gradually returned to normal."

"Ah, this," Lu Jun was speechless. "Damn it, nothing's changed. It's just a simple and brutal human experiment. Then why did you ask me to come here?"

Of course, he seemed to be pondering that part later. Wasn't this situation the same as his situation with water, metal, and curse magic? The only difference was that his non- Space Magic could all be restored.

Now, after a month, the gloom of time that occupied half of Lu Jun's Spiritual World has faded, and the other half of the hourglass occasionally reveals a different kind of mysterious luster.

"Hey, hey, hey." Elder Mina seemed to have guessed his thoughts and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, there's such a thing as absorption rate. After our secret testing, your digestion ability is among the strongest."

"With the rare combination of summoning, spatial, and mental abilities, they are the most suitable members to access the Sacred Eye of Time and Space. Time is of the essence, there's no other way but to forcibly initiate the plan."

That's correct. The Inca's ultimate goal was to use the power of the Eye of Time and Space to complete their plan of summoning infinite replicas.

There are many members who are suitable for a single lineage, but only one has the potential to carry out a brand-new method across all three lineages.

However, Lu Jun had a concern. His Ancient King Armor Robe was nearing the end of its seal, so what if he injected more spacetime energy to reinforce it?

Fortunately, Elder Mina spoke up at the right moment, "Don't worry, our ritual techniques are skilled. We only infused it into your Space Element. Even if it's ruined, your other two elements will be fine."

Hearing this, Lu Jun breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the water, gold, and curse that were improving in condition were not contaminated.

Seeing that he had no objection, several priests asked him to lie down on the stone altar.

Lu Jun lay flat with a heavy heart. History had proven that this plan was successful. Moreover, considering the timeline, the Amazon was about to besiege the city, and the Inca civilization was on its last legs. It could be basically concluded that his experiment was stuck at a critical juncture.

But when the time comes, unease is still inevitable.

He closed his eyes, constantly observing the Six Great Star Rivers of the Dark Universe. If the injected spacetime energy overflowed or any anomalies occurred, he would immediately call a halt.

Buzz buzz buzz!

A priest stood beside the stone platform, holding a semi-transparent three-dimensional ring in both hands and pointing it at Lu Jun's forehead. The ring represented the infinity of time and space, and also symbolized the cyclical nature of the ouroboros.

Although the principles are not understood, this is the experience gained by the priests of the Space Institute through practice. This structure is the longest-lasting way to store the power of spacetime.

As the circular ball of light fell, the dull, aged condensed liquid slowly flowed into Lu Jun's brow.

In an instant, Lu Jun's consciousness seemed to freeze, just like when he was swept into this strange space-time by the power unleashed by the Sacred Eye of Time and Space.

However, this time his resistance was stronger. He broke free after a brief moment of distraction. His thoughts were able to operate at a slow speed, but his emotions became indifferent, like a high-dimensional observer watching the astonishing changes taking place in his own Space Element.
