Advanced Level Three in the Psychic Element; Chaos Unleashed! / Tang Yue Arrives, the Black Snake Has Her Back

In their view, the only trouble was that Captain Lu Jun was under house arrest, and Xin Xia was just making alarmist claims. Even Mo Fan was only making a judgment based on intuition and did not know the specific inside story.

Even Shao Zheng advised Mo Fan to calm down and get the Divine Seal Praise first, saying he would find a way.

Mo Fan was frustrated, but then he remembered something: [The Star River Path]!

This route bypasses all the restrictions set by Parthenon and leads directly to the Goddess Peak to meet a very important person; no one is allowed to obstruct it in any way.

[The Star River Path] is a special road leading to the summit of Goddess Peak. It is protected by powerful restrictions that can suppress the cultivation level of all mages below the high level before they can attempt to pass through.

The journey is marked by Four Great Levels, each guarded by a terrifying Demon Beast.

Legend has it that the Parthenon Temple originally did not have such a path; it was only after a Greek soldier foresaw a Great Disaster and went there to seek help.

As a result, due to insufficient rank, they were unable to meet with higher-ups and were ultimately powerless to prevent the calamity from descending.

Afterwards, Parthenon suffered heavy losses, repented, and ordered the construction of the Star River Path.

Although Mo Fan thought the story was ridiculous and the Star River Path was more of a formality than a reality, it was indeed his only chance to see Xin Xia.

Mo Fan hurriedly ran to ask Pang Lai, who had forcefully crossed the Star River Path in his youth.

Pang Lai shook his head and said, "I advise you not to have too many ideas. This path is more difficult than ascending to heaven, unless you have a Heavenly Seed of Lightning Element, or Soul Seed plus the Divine Seal Praise Method, otherwise..."

Upon hearing this, Mo Fan secretly made up his mind: Was their combat strength insufficient? After the Divine Seal Praise, they would set out and definitely take Xin Xia away.

On the third day, on an altar on Goddess Peak, Sacred Tree stood tall, cascading thousands of Auspicious Ribbons, with rosy clouds soaring into the sky, and a solemn murmur echoing among the mountains.

The Temple Mother stood, bathed in auspicious light, like a divine being, radiating holy brilliance.

The members of the National Government received the Divine Seal Praise one by one, and then hurriedly returned to their seclusion to deplete their energy.

The Divine Seal Praise initially grants 2.5 times the base power, but this gradually dissipates over time. Ordinary people are lucky to retain 1.5 times the original power. Even with such a boost to a single Magic System, it's equivalent to a [Water Repelling Pearl].

Mo Fan worked hard to refine it, but unexpectedly discovered that the Little Loach pendant could help slow down the loss of the blessing energy, further increasing the upper limit of solidification.

Perhaps it will eventually be double?

Chapter 421 High-Level Level 3 Mind Element, Chaos Unveiled!

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Originally, the hype surrounding the National Mansion Competition would have gradually died down after it ended, but then Lu Jun was exposed for allegedly practicing forbidden techniques, Salang's life or death became uncertain.

Netizens around the world have become active again, causing a public uproar.

"Oh my god, this can't be real, right? Haha, I knew it! How could someone be able to take on a hundred people when they're all members of the National Team? They really are cheating with forbidden techniques!"

"This isn't right! This is internationally shameful! Cheating?!"

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter! I knew it was cheating for a mere top 32 player to suddenly become an undefeated champion. And today's glimpse confirms it."

Some people mocked and ridiculed him, while many others who knew Lu Jun well understood his character and believed he would never do such a thing, so they all stood up to speak out.

"You believe everything people say? If someone says shit tastes good, are you going to try it too?!"

"The Jiuzhou Official have clearly lodged a serious protest, and you believe the Holy City's side instead of the officials?!"

Ding Yumian, Qing Yu, and Lu Wei Xi in Magic City were all very worried about Lu Jun.

Ding Yumian, dressed in a white dress, stood at the school gate, biting her red lips. She repeatedly tried to rush out of the academy and board the plane to the Holy City, but was sternly stopped by Dean Xiao.

Dean Xiao looked around and sighed, "You two Calamity Bringer shouldn't force your way to the Holy City. You'll only cause more trouble than you'll help."

"As for Lu Jun, you can rest assured, Shao Zheng's negotiations have achieved initial success."

Meanwhile, Tang Yue learned from the Adjudication Court that Lu Jun had been detained in the Holy City. She was filled with disbelief and gritted her teeth in anger. She immediately went to Greece with Zhu Meng.

Zhu Meng's Adjudication Court was specifically responsible for the Overseas Europe, and with Lu Jun, whom he had recommended, in trouble, he naturally couldn't stand aside and actively tried to win him over.

Old Man Song from the Azure Sky Demon Hunting Agency, a former priest of the Holy City, was also invited out by Hua Zhanhong.

However, Tang Yue was somewhat melancholy. It had been a year since she had seen Lu Jun, and she didn't know if he missed her or was just playing around. In any case, she had to find Lu Jun.

Meanwhile, in the distant Western Regions.

Lu Mei was shrouded in a gray-white cloak, yet her figure remained voluptuous and alluring. She walked lightly out of the Taklamakan Desert, with swirling yellow sand behind her, exuding a heroic and spirited aura.

She slightly raised her head, revealing half of her delicate and smooth face, her chin smooth and slightly pointed, her red lips glossy, and murmured, "A year has passed, and I've finally completed my training. I wonder how my younger brother is doing."

Immediately, Lu Mei carried Shi Qianshou's corpse in one hand and headed to the Dunhuang Military Region.

Six months ago, based on information provided by her younger brother Lu Jun, she found Shi Qianshou, who was said to be on the verge of extinction with the city. She killed him and took a half-withered [Heart of the Earth].

After Lu Mei explained Shi Qianshou's numerous crimes, she also learned some bad news.

"What? My brother has been detained by the Holy City?"

Lu Mei frowned slightly, her pretty face turning cold. Without hesitation, she transferred to the Ancient Capital International Airport and boarded a plane to the Holy City: "I will bring him back to the country safely. Let's see who dares to touch him."

In the small courtyard at the foot of Mount Parthenon, the echoes of countless voices reverberated in the void, rising and falling like the Tide.

Lu Jun sat upright in the small courtyard, where the scene within a hundred meters was ever-changing, with the Holy Demon becoming one.

At times, chanting filled the air, auspicious light descended, and the phantoms of countless holy spirits appeared, shimmering and shining, reflecting a divine holiness. At other times, demonic sounds filled the ears, eerie winds howled, Demon God gods roared, making them appear like unparalleled demons.

Fortunately, these phenomena only exist on Spiritual Level; if they were to actually manifest, they would likely shock the world.

During this period, Lu Jun was immersed in the cultivation of the Mind Element. Since planting the Imagination Seed, this was the first time he had properly studied and explored it.

In addition to the Faithful Thought Tide brought about by the Nationalist government's victory, the sudden invasion of Malicious Curses by the Holy City's slander created Light and Darkness Intertwined, which nourished the blossoming and formation of the Li Fan Flower Mark.

"The human heart is unpredictable; it can unite people into a single mind, creating monumental miracles, or it can shatter Mortal World into pieces, turning the world into Purgatory. The human heart is supreme, higher than the heavens; by tempering my own heart with the human heart, my soul will be eternal!"

Lu Jun's eyes shone with wisdom, and their clear, crystalline quality seemed to elevate his soul, revealing the first signs of divinity.

The next moment, his face twisted, as if divided into Yin-Yang Face: the left half was compassionate and holy, with a bright blue left eye like a gemstone; the right half was evil and grinning, with a black and red right eye like an abyss.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Jun returned to normal, his mind resounding with a deafening roar, a sound that seemed to shatter the heavens and the earth.

Within the Spiritual World, the azure Milky Way surged and finally broke through a layer of Light Screen, expanding to twice its Size Change until it crashed into a thick chasm.

The Mind Element has advanced to the third level of the Advanced Stage! The name is [Soul Control - Mind Crushing].

Lu Jun's gaze was gentle and peaceful, and his aura was rising. During the past month of dedicated cultivation, not only had his Mind Element cultivation improved, but his Power of Imagination had also accumulated a great deal of energy, illuminating a petal of the Li Fan Flower.

At its advanced stage Li Fan Flower has a total of twelve petals, each corresponding to Power of Imagination comparable to the energy of an entire galaxy, which can unleash infinite power.

Furthermore, Lu Jun used the power of human hearts to refine his own, completely erasing the Negative Emotions that had accumulated in the Ancient King Armor Robe over the past year, leaving it as clear as a mirror. He even comprehended the Heavenly Seed Realm of the Seven Realms of Mental Power through this process.

No matter how much he improved his cultivation before, this barrier remained unshaken. Now, he has finally cracked the mystery of the mind.

Just as Lu Jun was slowly comprehending and consolidating his understanding, a knock suddenly sounded at the courtyard gate.

A beautiful woman pushed open the door, carrying a basket as she entered. Her body was voluptuous and graceful, her slender limbs bearing abundant fruit, and her charming smile exuded allure.

The woman was none other than Jun Yaojin, who entered the room carrying food.

Seeing this, Lu Jun asked familiarly, "What's the situation outside?"

Jun Yaojin said with a smile, "Not bad, I reckon you'll be out today."

Thanks to Shao Zheng's tireless efforts over the past month, Parthenon not only sent people to deliver delicious food and drinks three times a day, but also familiar people, and there were no restrictions on his access to outside intelligence.

Lu Jun and Jun Yaojin became acquainted after a while, and the two even developed a comradeship.

Upon hearing that he was about to be released, Lu Jun showed no emotion and calmly asked, "What happened to Parthenon?"

Jun Yaojin hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Another Saintess has died. It was Penny Jia. She was killed by Xin Xia herself. Countless people witnessed this scene, including the death of Ander, which was also attributed to her."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun sneered, "Then is she Salang?"

"This..." Jun Yaojin was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Whether she is Salang or not is no longer important. She killed two Saintess, and the Knight Hall, the Faith Hall, and other forbidden spellcasters behind her want to execute her."

"It's estimated that the Holy City will convene today to have the thirteen Adjudicator vote."

"What a Parthenon! What a Holy City! Turning right and wrong upside down, confusing black and white!"

Lu Jun sneered; his inquiry with Jun Yaojin was merely a formality.

In reality, with his Mind Element cultivation and True Name Precognition, he can vaguely communicate with the Trend of Thought of Heaven, Earth, and All Beings, showing the demeanor of someone who can know the affairs of the world while sitting in a thatched hut. He is even about to develop the Prophetic Ability predict the course of events.

Therefore, he also knew that Parthenon had not granted him the Divine Seal Praise.

Lu Jun's eyes were deep. "Parthenon, Holy City... you forced me to this."

Soon, footsteps sounded outside the door again. He looked in the direction of the sound and was slightly taken aback. He saw a familiar figure, pear-shaped and charming.

Tang Yue quickened her pace, pushed open the courtyard gate, and smiled brightly upon seeing Lu Jun: "It's been so long, my little man, I've come to take you home."

Chapter 422 Tang Yue Arrives, Xuan She Backs Her Up

Inside the small courtyard.

Tang Yue gazed at the familiar yet unfamiliar young man before her. His appearance remained handsome and aloof, but he seemed to have matured somewhat, weathered many storms, and shed his youthful naiveté.

She suddenly felt a little timid and dared not go forward, as if there had been a distance between them since they had not seen each other for a long time.

But this wasn't Tang Yue's style. In the end, she walked forward confidently, bent down, and gave Lu Jun, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, a big hug.

Hmm! Before Lu Jun could even react, his cheeks were nestled in her arms, his heart filled with warmth, and a certain thought arose in his mind.

What the hell is this "using people's hearts to refine my own" nonsense? All that fancy talk! Purifying the soul will never compare to... cough cough cough!

Seeing this scene, Jun Yaojin's expression became somewhat subtle: a mature woman and a robust young man?

Then, looking down so low she couldn't see her toes, she gasped, "You, Lu Jun, so this is what you like! You even invited me to work, trying to Unspoken Rules, huh?"

A few more people entered the courtyard. Shao Zheng had just crossed the threshold when he saw this and turned to leave, pushing aside the boisterous Zhu Meng behind him.

"Lu Jun, I'm here to save you... Oh no!"

Zhu Meng's cheerful voice was cut short before he was forcibly dragged away. Looking bewildered, he asked Shao Zheng, "What are you doing?"

Shao Zheng modestly and said, "It's just young people getting together, why are you, a grown man, getting involved?"

In the courtyard, Lu Jun moved away from the rather suffocating embrace and looked up at Tang Yue's charming and mature oval face, with delicate features and slightly red eyes.

A thought struck him, and he said with emotion, "Sister Tang Yue, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Tang Yue's pretty face flushed, and she said softly, "It's good that you're alright."

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and their skin touched, causing them both to feel a bit hot. As the saying goes, "A year in the army makes even a sow more beautiful than Diao Chan, "Lu Jun's year of training in the National Government was no exception.

However, he remained very rational; the important matter at hand was the priority.

Not to mention, the repulsive face of the Sacred Judgment Mage Xiso leaned closer and sneered, "You seem to be quite protected by the Nine Provinces, you coward. Quickly open your Spiritual World Check, then leave immediately."

Upon hearing Xiso's rude words, Tang Yue's pretty face turned cold, and she threw out a Green Totem Bead from her bosom without hesitation.

Rumble!

In an instant, the sky above Parthenon darkened, a fierce wind howled for several kilometers around, and thick clouds tore apart, as if it were the end of the world. Then, Dark Green Mist that blotted out the sun surged up and rolled in, engulfing most of the towering Goddess Peak.

An endless fog spread out, accompanied by an awe-inspiring and majestic aura rising up.

Deep within the vast Sea of Mist, first appeared a pair of pupils as large as two suns, then the outline of a massive mountain range appeared and disappeared, enveloping the mountain peaks as if a Great Wall had been erected out of thin air.

The powerful beings of Parthenon were alarmed, and numerous restrictions flickered with Magic Radiance, seemingly overwhelmed.

Someone asked in astonishment, "What kind of magnificent creature is this?!"

Amidst the ever-changing Feng Yun, a colossal Sky-Pillar Giant Snake stood proudly beneath the sky, its majestic body soaring into the heavens, its enormous head suspended above the celestial canopy.

No one could see the full form of this enormous creature; it was merely half of a snake's body beneath the sky.

"Oh my god!!"

"It's a snake! It's the unparalleled, supreme snake king Haila!"

The temple's Temple Mother was frozen in shock, Knight Hall's lord Hailong, almost stopped breathing.

Whoosh! In the next moment, all the overwhelming Demonic Aura that seemed to have been created by the birth of Peerless Great Demon vanished, the many strange phenomena disappeared, the clear sky appeared, and the sun shone brightly.

It was as if what had just happened was merely a magnificent mirage.

Everyone was stunned and shocked. "No... it's gone?"

"What happened?! Why has the Snake King disappeared?"
