The Aftermath, Swimsuit Special / Calamity Bringer, Farewell
Overall, this was a very fruitful experience.
Then, recalling the Dark King from earlier, his expression turned solemn. The opponent's strength was somewhat unbelievable. Even across a world, after being worn down by many layers, his power still managed to inflict Emperor-level damage on the Magic Plane.
If his true form were to descend, that would be terrible.
Fortunately, the Dark Plane is far away, beyond the reach of the Dark King, and the Magic Plane is repelled, leaving him powerless to interfere too much in the Mortal World.
Suddenly, Lu Jun closed his eyes slightly, falling into a state of enlightenment, reflecting on the ups and downs of this period, from sweeping to the top of the National Mansion Competition, to falling into a deep mess, and then transforming into an invincible Emperor who crushed his enemies, experiencing a series of wondrous events.
Within the Dark Universe, a vast, moon-white river flowed, with a perfectly round Qiankun Stone floating in its center. Its surface was crystal clear and flawless, displaying a bluish-yellow hue, and it had nine hidden orifices, measuring approximately 3.65 inches in Size Change.
At that moment, electricity crackled from nothingness, and an invisible blade flashed past.
The Qiankun Stone underwent a slight alteration. After the "second cut" was made, a faint Life Aura emerged from the stone itself, bringing the nonexistent Imaginary Beast of the second contract one step closer to its birth.
Lu Jun opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of pent-up frustration, and controlled the star. The void trembled slightly, and a black and red Hell Furnace appeared.
Within the Curse Flame, a phantom spirit twisted and writhed in agony.
Durank's soul opened its eyes, and upon seeing Lu Jun's appearance, it was utterly shocked. "Wasn't I bound by the Undead Emperor? How come...?"
In that instant, he understood everything. His face showed regret, and he weakly pleaded, "I never expected it to be you. I... I was wrong. Please, have mercy on me."
Lu Jun sneered, put away the Hell Furnace, and said indifferently, "You can stay inside and repent for the rest of your life. Why did you have to force me?"
After a while, he patiently waited for the changes in his body to subside before setting off back to Athens City.
The Mind Mirror Image he left behind was running out of time. With the last bit of power from the Ancient King Armor Robe, he activated the spatial coordinates left on the image.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Lu Jun's figure blurred, as if time had reversed, and silently transformed into a wisp of light, disappearing into the void.
Meanwhile, in Athens City, Shao Zheng, Zhu Meng, Tang Yue, and even Jun Yaojin gathered together.
Suddenly, Lu Jun's body trembled, and his gaze changed from somber to bright and clear. No one noticed, except for Tang Yue beside him, who seemed to sense it. She turned her pretty face and looked at him with a half-smile.
Lu Jun felt a little guilty. Sister Tang Yue might have noticed, but it wasn't a big deal; she would cover for him.
Upon his return, he heard the discussions among the crowd.
Shao Zheng said with a grave expression, "It has been confirmed that it is the Ancient King of our Ancient Capital. This time, we will likely face questioning from the Holy City and Parthenon."
"Heh heh heh," Zhu Meng said disdainfully, "So what? Emperor is free; what can we do about where he goes?"
"Moreover, the Holy City is probably secretly delighted and gloating over the terrible things that happened to the Parthenon Temple. How can they really blame them? As for the Parthenon... hehehe, after this ordeal, it's barely able to protect itself."
Old Man Song nodded.
Lu Jun remained calm, showing no concern about being recognized. The Ancient King had ample motive for appearing, and he had deliberately only used his Mind Element and Space Element powers.
Apart from a very few people who know him well, no one else knows that he has these two departments.
At the same time, the power of the Demon Mo Fan in the sky gradually faded. He flew to the square of Goddess Peak and, in front of Hailong, the Temple Mother and others, openly carried Xin Xia away, and no one dared to stop him.
Mo Fan reached under Xin Xia's legs and lifted her up in a princess carry, whispering gently, "Let's go home!"
Xin Xia buried her pretty face in Mo Fan's chest and nodded slightly, saying, "Mmm!"
Chapter 431 Aftermath, Swimsuit Limited Edition
Mo Fan, holding Xin Xia, slowly descended from mid-air.
Seeing that the other party was unharmed, Shao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, his face full of guilt. He stepped forward and sincerely apologized, "This time it was our fault; we failed to protect you."
"But don't worry, we'll take care of the aftermath of the Demonization for you."
Upon hearing this, Mo Fan was exhausted and didn't want to think too much. He finally understood that he could only rely on himself in this world, and the Dark Force, a top-tier power in the Magic Plane, was beyond his imagination.
If he wants to live with dignity for himself and his family in this world, he must become stronger and cultivate himself in a more ruthless way.
In the original novel, Mo Fan only realized this after the events of the Ancient King Zhan Kong being killed by the Holy City and Feng Zhoulong being killed by the Dubai Magic Association Fusion Magic. Now, however, he has realized it much earlier.
Mo Fan had had enough of feeling powerless. If it weren't for the Undead Emperor's sudden intervention, Xin Xia and he would have been in dire straits.
Therefore, he was grateful to the Ancient King.
Mo Fan remained silent, and everyone fell silent as well. Coupled with the tragic and sorrowful atmosphere of the Acropolis in Athens, no one was interested in talking for a moment.
Old Man Song spoke first, giving Mo Fanxinxia a deep look before saying, "This place is not safe to stay any longer; delay could lead to unforeseen changes. I'll take you away immediately, back to the country as soon as possible, so you can recuperate and alleviate the backlash from your demonization."
Shao Zheng nodded, then turned to Lu Jun and asked, "What are your plans? Will you go back to China together?"
Lu Jun shook his head and said, "I have something to do. I need to go to the Cape Magic Association in Africa, so I won't be coming."
The others present had no objections, since Lu Jun's problem wasn't significant, and with Parthenon's decline, it was even less of a problem. On the contrary, Mo Fan's Demonization involved forbidden techniques, violating the fundamental laws of the five major Magic Association and the Holy City.
I wonder how interesting Shao Zheng's expression would be if he knew that Lu Jun was the Undead Emperor who destroyed Parthenon. The whole of Kyushu would probably be shaken.
This matter has come to an end, but its aftereffects continue to expand.
Parthenon's explicit videos circulated worldwide, and no amount of deletion could change the situation; her image suffered a devastating blow.
At the same time, the identity of the Undead Emperor was finally revealed, and he turned out to be none other than the Ancient King of the Ancient Capital.
In the past, the Armor Robe Emperor stood tall in the sky above the Ancient Capital. With a wave of his hand, billions of dead souls vanished without a trace. The world was frozen in time to capture the majestic Emperor's silhouette, a scene that now echoes the grandeur of Parthenon.
In an instant, the Ancient King became famous overnight, his fame spreading throughout the world.
In the list of many Demonic Beast Empire Emperor published by the five major Magic Association in the [Revelation], the Ancient King's ranking instantly soared, moving from the top twenty to the top five.
Commentary: This Undead Emperor seems to be different from traditional Demon Beast Emperor. He does not follow the habit of lying dormant in the imperial territory for many years, but instead roams around and launches attacks.
Furthermore, He possesses exceptional wisdom and drive, boundless ambition, and aspires to seize the throne of King of Hell and even challenge the position of the Dark King.
In light of this, we have increased the danger level of the Ancient King; Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, may indeed have been resurrected from the annals of history.
While the world despises the Parthenon, it cannot help but worry: will disaster one day befall their city when such a tyrannical Emperor roams freely?
It's truly unbelievable and defies common sense. Most Demon Beast Emperor slumber within their own territories, so people don't perceive much danger from these empires, and the world seems exceptionally peaceful.
Even if the higher-ups in the Magic Plane are aware of the threat posed by the major empires, they can comfortably ignore it as long as the Emperor remains inactive.
This time it didn't work, which shocked everyone. So even though the Ancient King's strength was far inferior to that of the Dominator Emperor, the Rooftop Emperor, the Dark King, and others, his fame became known to everyone.
On the Aegean Sea in Greece, Lu Jun was scrolling through his phone when he saw this scene and felt utterly bored.
The power of the Ancient King Armor Robe was ultimately not his own cultivation level. Only when it became a forbidden spell and he fully absorbed the King of Hell Throne could he openly test his sword against all the heroes of the world.
Moreover, Lu Jun knew that this outbreak was not without its hidden dangers, and his window of opportunity to become Emperor was closing.
If the Holy City feels that the Ancient King is too much of a threat and decides to gather the members of the Forbidden Curse Association to descend upon the Ancient Capital and raze his Undead Empire to the ground, then all is lost.
After all, the Ancient King is now just an empty shell, and the Undead Empire is no match for him.
Lu Jun needs to seize the time to improve his cultivation and live up to his name as soon as possible.
So after the Battle of Parthenon, he parted ways with Shao Zheng and his group, taking Tang Yue south to Africa.
The Magic Association at the Cape of Good Hope still owes him a small, top-quality Metal Vein.
Hmm, and while I'm at it, I'll have a good intimate time with Tang Yue. I've worked so hard cultivating for so long, what's wrong with enjoying myself a bit?!
Lu Jun hadn't seen Sister Tang Yue for a while. Anyway, the route from southern Greece to Africa passes through the Aegean Sea, a famous vacation spot for couples, and the atmosphere and environment are unparalleled.
Moreover, to avoid being disturbed and to have some peace and quiet, Lu Jun generously booked the entire beach.
Many wealthy people use these companies to provide specialized services when vacationing along the coast, unless they are deliberately trying to have a romantic encounter or other romantic experiences, in which case they choose to mingle with the general public.
Lu Jun wouldn't be greedy; on this Sea of Light beach, with only the three of them around, no one could catch a glimpse of Sister Tang Yue's beauty.
Three people... That's right, the beautiful temple maid Jun Yaojin also came along. It seems that seeing the Parthenon Temple was on the verge of collapse and unable to restrain its members, she simply packed her belongings and ran away.
On the beach, Lu Jun, wearing patterned shorts and sunglasses, comfortably leaned back in a deck chair, watching the two women playing in the water, and couldn't help but sigh, "This is truly Mortal World of luxury."
Tang Yue was wearing a black one-piece swimsuit, revealing her fair, slender arms and long, straight, and plump legs. Her fair and tender skin shone brightly in the sunlight, making her incredibly alluring against the backdrop of the pure black dress.
Furthermore, the chest and abdomen areas were covered with sheer fabric, making them subtly visible. So at first glance, it looked very conservative, but in reality, with her voluptuous figure, her breasts and buttocks were so full that they almost burst open the black swimsuit.
She has a complete grasp of men's psychology.
On the other side, Jun Yaojin was even bolder, sporting a beach bikini. As expected of a woman with European and American heritage, her slender limbs were adorned with ample breasts, exaggeratedly alluring, exuding a unique exotic charm.
Lu Jun sized her up and down, and exclaimed, "No wonder she's a beauty with 'enchanting' qualities."
After playing in the water, the two girls came ashore, soaking wet, and started playing beach volleyball, their movements reminiscent of the surging waves of the ocean.
After they finished playing, they strode towards Lu Jun with their long legs, looking satisfied with their smiling faces.
Jun Yaojin said generously, "Thank you, boss."
Lu Jun became interested and teased, "Parthenon is on the verge of collapse. If you had stayed there, you would have had a good chance of being promoted. Why did you come with me?"
Chapter 432 The Calamity Bringer, Farewell
Jun Yaojin shook his head, saying meaningfully, "Parthenon can give me, you can give me too; what you can give me, it cannot."
These words startled Lu Jun, making him wonder if the woman had noticed something. He had been suppressing the turmoil in his soul recently, and it was possible that the leaked energy had been sensed by her.
"Besides..." she paused and said, "It's alright that Parthenon lost his soul, the key is that his reputation is already ruined. I know my own limitations, and it's too difficult to rebuild the temple. I'm not one of those geniuses who only come in one in ten thousand."
Lu Jun smiled but didn't say anything.
He wasn't worried at all that Jun Yaojin would discover the problem; in any case, she would never guess that he had transformed into the Undead Emperor and seized Parthenon Divine Soul.
Moreover, Lu Jun has been studying the divine soul and has gained a deep understanding of this treasure. Athena was actually Calamity Bringer both healing and blessing!
She not only cultivated to the pinnacle, but also refined her dual-elemental Calamity Talent along with her own soul, condensing it into a divine soul that she preserved forever.
Throughout history, goddesses who possess this aptitude have been able to inherit the talents of those Calamity Bringer.
Although throughout history, very few people have been able to wield a single calamity-related power, Healing System or Blessing Element, it's not a major problem for Lu Jun.
With a solid foundation and a powerful spiritual essence, he mastered the [Resurrection Divine Art] shortly after acquiring a divine soul.
It's estimated that once the Super Rank awakening of the Healing System and the refinement of the divine soul's [Healing System Disaster] talent are achieved, it will be just around the corner.
The only talent he couldn't handle was the Blessing Element's Calamity Talent. First of all, the types for Super Rank- Awakening were already full; the first type, [Healing], and the second type had to be reserved for [Undead].
Waiting for forbidden spells would obviously take too long, and Blessing Element were not within his plans.
Secondly, as I said before, Magic System about quality, not quantity. His path is about mastering life and death, requiring the purification of energy. And if we have to compare Athena's soul, Healing System is more advanced than Blessing Element, containing a greater proportion of energy.
Otherwise, Parthenon's most outstanding ability wouldn't be [Resurrection Divine Art], but rather [Blessing Spell].
Therefore, he plans to grant the Blessing Element talent to a mage Calamity Bringer practices the Blessing Element, and then have that person cast permanent blessings on the core members of his faction.
As for who this person is, it doesn't matter. Lu Jun possesses a divine soul and can reclaim the Blessing Element Calamity Bringer at any time. In addition, during the period of bestowal, this person's life and death are entirely in his control, so he has no worries about betrayal or leaks.
Lu Jun found Jun Yaojin pleasing to the eye, and if he trusted her, he wouldn't mind 'lending' her the power to bless those suffering from disaster for a period of time.
In the end, even Lu Jun couldn't keep up with the cultivation.
Because the Ancient King Armor Robe had subtly reached a certain standard after absorbing the Haila, a mysterious and ancient aura gathered in the darkness, and it actually managed to cultivate the [Undead Element Calamity Talent] based on the King of Hell Throne!
Therefore, Lu Jun's awakened Super Rank -elemental talent, which grants him healing and Calamity Talent, will undoubtedly make him the most powerful human in history.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I find my own outfit terrifying."
Lu Jun clicked his tongue, displaying extreme narcissism.
After sending Jun Yaojin away, Tang Yue stood there gracefully, her mature face flushed, her pair of fair and delicate feet gliding across the sand, making one's mouth water.
He swallowed hard, then suddenly understood what the other person meant.
Before he could react, Sister Tang Yue pounced on him, lowering her head and whispering, "My little man, I missed you so much."
"Wait a minute, we're not back in our room yet!"
Nothing more was said that night; Lu Jun and Tang Yue engaged in a fierce battle, leaving them both with aching backs and sore waists.
There was no other way; absence makes the heart grow fonder, and the atmosphere of the Aegean Sea was just right, so we naturally had a blast.
Meanwhile, at the Acropolis in Athens, Lu Mei, travel-worn, landed. She scrolled through videos, her brow furrowed, and sighed regretfully, "I'm too late."
Lu Mei felt somewhat guilty, as she hadn't been able to stand by her younger brother's side when he needed help the most.
