Thump!

Lu Jun swung his fist fiercely, and a vast expanse of black water vapor surged into the sky, transforming into a towering water column that crashed into the depths of the dark, gaping Storm Wave above them.

The giant black serpent howled, its head raised high, and under immense pressure, it crashed into the sea surface as if it had struck a thick, hard piece of steel, without creating the slightest wave.

The giant ship narrowly escaped disaster. Under the immense Mind Control of Lu Jun, whose eyes gleamed with silver light, it moved hundreds of meters in mid-air and landed steadily on the other side.

At this moment, Lu Mei and Jun Yaojin reacted, their faces solemn as they looked towards the depths of the Black Northern Darkness Sea Area, where the enormous black snake shadow was being suppressed.

The veteran sailor, still shaken, calmed down and recognized the enormous serpent, exclaiming, "The Jiehai Grand Duke Snake?!"

Chapter 439 The Power of the Seven Realms of the Spirit

On the sea, the old sailor's face was filled with fear.

Those who make a living in the Mediterranean Sea know the infamous reputation of the Jiehai Grand Duke Snake, which frequently attacks ships traveling between Africa and the Aegean Sea, causing several serious tragedies with no survivors.

Without needing anyone to remind him, Lu Jun immediately understood the meaning of the creature upon hearing its name.

He remembered that the Jiehai Grand Duke Snake was the Monarch Demon of the Scorpion Snake Clan, a demon directly under Euryale, the Harpy Snake Demon and second daughter of Mother of Medusa, and lived in the Mediterranean Sea year-round.

Two or three years later in the Original Timeline, Mo Fan, during his trip to Egypt, formed a contract with Apasi, and was then sent by Euryale to carry out an assassination mission, which forced the still High-level Completion Mo Fan to flee in a frenzy.

This brings us to the threat of Demon Beast in Africa, where seven powerful figures, each a ruler of at least the highest Emperor, reside.

The leader of the Seven Giants of Africa is undoubtedly the Sahara Emperor, one of the Three Great Rooftops Emperor. Following him are Pharaoh of the Egyptian Undead Empire, Mother of Medusa of the Scorpion-Snake Empire, and so on.

Pharaoh Mother of Medusa are staunch allies, supporting each other.

Unfortunately, Medusa, who was transformed from one of the earliest human female sorcerers Curse Element and Mind Element, has aged considerably in recent years and doesn't seem to have many years left to live.

She had three daughters: the eldest, Tersina the Scorpion Woman; the second, Euryale the Harpy Snake Demon; and the youngest, Apasi. Each of them was Great Demon of Monarch Level, eager to vie for the supreme throne of the Scorpion Snake Tribe.

Apasi, being the weakest, hid in human society to survive. She was accidentally encountered by Mo Fan, who, with the Mental Power of the Nine Nether Queen, forcibly formed a contract with this demon.

The rest of the story is the cliché: he's being chased and killed by his two older sisters.

"It seems I've come at the wrong time; the future of Europe and Africa is just as turbulent."

Lu Jun frowned. Europe was in the active period of Titan, Africa was awakening Pharaoh, Serpent and Scorpion were in turmoil, and there was even more serious hidden danger in Europe and Africa: the expansion of the Sahara Empire seventy years later.

However, on the other hand, he saw this as an opportunity, and he was interested in getting involved with both Pharaoh and Medusa.

The former is Lu Jun's most direct enemy on the Great Dao. After swallowing the Ancient King Armor Robe, he immediately rose to the level of Dominator Emperor, on par with Athena's divine soul.

Not to mention the numerous undead under Pharaoh's command, from whom one could harvest a massive amount of spiritual energy, and delve deep into the pyramids to collect evil treasures, which could be forged into Star Sea Magic Artifact to give to my sister.

The latter Medusa, is the oldest Curse, Mind mage, wielding what is considered the world's most powerful Curse Magic, [Medusa's Gaze].

He is also a Curse, Mind mage. The other party is about to die of old age. If he can study the corpse of Emperor Medusa, he may be able to draw inferences from it and quickly cultivate Supernatural Power, which is still one of the top unsolvable curses.

Yes, the Supernatural Power of the Super Rank is the mark that distinguishes ordinary Super Rank from top-rank Super Rank. However, even among Supernatural Power, there are differences in quality, depending on the bonuses they bring and whether the abilities are unsolvable or bizarre.

Lu Jun mentally reviewed the information but didn't delve deeper. He was still quite a ways off from being able to engage in a battle at the Emperor level; he'd deal with it later.

Right now, as he gazed at the Jiehai Grand Duke Snake struggling violently in the vast black sea ahead, about to escape, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

He had broken through to the Super Rank in both his elemental systems, reaching the Spiritual Heavenly Realm, and was itching to test his strength when a Sub -Sub-Lord happened to appear.

Rumble!

The Black Serpent of the Sea broke through the suppression of the Northern Darkness Domain. Its enormous body rose high, like a towering lighthouse, standing amidst the vast rain. Even the giant ships of the Commander-level appeared insignificant before the monarch.

Its serpentine eyes stared coldly and angrily at Lu Jun. It had roamed the Mediterranean Sea for so many years, and although no hunter had ever succeeded in hunting it, none had succeeded.

The next moment, the giant sea serpent unleashed its terrifying power to control water, causing the sea to surge and the area in front of the ship to suddenly sink, creating a continuous current. If the ship rashly stepped into this area, it would immediately plunge into the deep sea, resulting in the destruction of the ship and the loss of all life.

The people on the ship panicked.

Just then, Lu Jun suddenly made his move. His eyes flashed with black and red light, and Soul Phantom emerged from between his brows. The three-inch-tall figure was crystal clear, and a vast Mental Power overflowed, piercing into the void and distorting the air within a hundred feet.

High-level Magic Blood Abyss - Ghost Execution of Through-the-Net!

Buzzing sounds filled the air! Huge black vortexes Netherworld Opens on both sides of the ship, creating a dark and eerie atmosphere. A cold wind howled, and eerie black and red hellfire spread across the sea. The ship seemed to be sailing through a sea of hellfire, with a chilling aura penetrating every crevice.

Although Lu Jun had not mastered the Super Rank Curse Element magic, with the support of Super Rank control and the Spiritual Heavenly Realm, his magic was already different. It changed with his thoughts, and the scene became more and more magnificent.

Roar!

Immediately afterwards, from the two enormous vortexes, hideous Ghost Shadow crawled out. Their dark, ghostly bodies stood tall, dozens of meters high, and were none other than the Black and White Impermanence, the Qian Kun Two Fiends.

The aura he now exudes has reached the Advancement Period of Commander-level, almost reaching the level of a monarch.

As soon as the two demonic figures appeared, they pounced on the giant serpent of the distant sea.

One wielded a wind sickle, hooking it fiercely at the seven-inch mark of the thousand-meter-long giant snake, drawing out a deep, bluish-black ravine from which a large amount of blood gushed out. The other swung a massive earthen club, smashing it hard onto the snake's head, its petrifying power freezing its mobility.

Thump! The giant sea serpent cried out in pain, its body twisting and turning, its tail rising and falling, stirring up layers of waves, and the sea surface churned incessantly.

Light Falls Ten Thousand Zhang! Sky Flame Funeral!

Jun Yaojin and Lu Mei attacked simultaneously, unleashing two high-level, level-three offensive spells at the giant snake.

First, a blazing white beam of light pierced through the sea and landed on a part of the giant serpent. The intense Light Element only scorched its thick, hard scales, causing minimal damage.

Then came the mighty golden heavenly fire, which engulfed half of the giant sea serpent's body. The terrifying high temperature evaporated a large amount of seawater, leaving reddish marks on large areas of the serpent's scales, as if it had melted. It was much better than the former.

Both sides yielded minimal results, as they lacked any special techniques, Heavenly Seed, or Super Rank magic, making their efforts seem ineffective.

Lu Jun was surrounded by a dark, surging sea of interwoven constellations. With a powerful stomp, the sea surged in the shape of a ship, and jets of black jade water shot into the sky, forming a magnificent water palace that enveloped the giant ship.

The water-controlling power of the giant sea serpent reached the vicinity of the black water palace, quickly subsided, and was fiercely suppressed.

At this moment, the black giant serpent was tightly restrained by the two demonic beings, and its most powerful water control ability was being usurped by the Northern Darkness Domain. For a time, it was caught in a dilemma and reached a stalemate.

Seeing this, Lu Jun was delighted; the overall boost brought by the Spiritual Heavenly Realm was indeed extraordinary.

A few months ago, he killed the Dark Sword Master, the Sub-Lord, in Egypt, Africa, but he still relied on the Blood Abyss Curse's sublimation state and needed Jun Yaojin's blessing to heal him.

Now, Lu Jun can fight the Jiehai Grand Duke Snake to a standstill using only conventional magic.

On the ocean, amidst wind and rain, giant serpents Ghost Shadow danced wildly, unleashing a torrent of violent energy, resembling a scene of ancient demons locked in battle—a truly awe-inspiring spectacle.

Chapter 440 Slaying the Monarch

"This isn't over yet!"

Lu Jun snorted coldly. He was happily traveling on a ship with two stunning beauties when a Sub-Lord had to come along and spoil the fun.

Buzzing! His eyes flashed with an eerie, transparent light, and the advantage of his Spiritual Heavenly Realm was once again demonstrated. In addition to the Water Element and Curse Element he was releasing, he still had the power to control even more Magic System abilities.

The next moment, Lu Jun was surrounded by dazzling Star Track, forming a constellation pattern, with a cold vertical pupil in the center of his brain-like form.

High-level Magic [Soul Control - Soul Crushing]!

If Level 1 Mind Imprisonment is temporary control that does not affect personality or consciousness, and Level 2 Subtle Demonic Influence is a gradual and subtle process that reverses personality, allowing one to control a person without distraction, then Level 3 Soul Crushing is the purest form of crushing.

The consciousness of a living being is completely erased, leaving only a blank sheet of paper. Like a person in a vegetative state, one can freely doodle and mold the person into a personality that best suits their desires.

A beam of transparent light shot out from the pupil constellation behind Lu Jun's brain, distorting the void wherever it passed, creating a magnificent and awe-inspiring sight, and directly focusing on the eyes of the giant serpent of the Jie Sea.

A roar! The fiercely struggling Jiehai Grand Duke Snake suddenly froze in mid-air, its pair of vertical, cruel serpent eyes freezing into a dull gray, its massive serpent face contorted in fear, and its mouth hissing silently.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Jun closed his eyes and stood still. Jun Yaojin and Lu Mei received his Mind Telepathy and stayed close to him.

With a buzzing sound, a three-inch Soul Evasion between his brows left his body, soared into the sky, and transformed into a stream of light, which directly entered the mind of the giant serpent that blotted out the sky in the distance.

Lu Jun felt a blur before his eyes and stepped into the Spiritual World of the Jiehai Sea Snake Lord. Darkness and chaos surrounded him from all sides, with a serpentine shadow coiled in the center. Its body was illusory and dark blue, far less solid than his own.

When he looked down at himself, he was actually like a giant spirit god, his whole body glowing brightly, much taller than the snake spirit opposite him, and his silver radiance made him appear even more sacred and noble.

"Soul Crushing!"

With a thought, he unleashed a terrifying Mental Storm in the dark void, centered on his Spirit Body. Layers of murky, dim, and transparent light bombarded the snake shadow in the center.

The Jiehai Sea Snake Lord was in agony, his soul bearing many wounds. As he roared, he was about to leap up and pounce on the giant humanoid spirit in the sky.

As a result, several transparent and dazzling chains emerged from the void with a 'whoosh,' spanning across the air and landing directly on the snake shadow's soul, binding it tightly and imprisoning it.

Lu Jun repeatedly stirred up mental storms, using the most brutal methods to destroy Snake King's soul.

Not only that, on the sea outside, the two great demons of Qian and Kun took advantage of the fact that the Jiehai Grand Duke Snake was not moving, and frantically attacked the Serpent Lord's majestic body with wind-blade scythes and gray-white giant clubs. The injuries deepened little by little, and the powerful curse power penetrated into every pore.

The feedback to the Serpent Lord's soul, in addition to Lu Jun's crushing wave of damage, also occasionally revealed grayish-white petrified spots and narrow, bluish-black marks on the surface of the Serpent's shadow under the Dark Universe.

It is unknown how much time passed, but the snake's shadow gradually weakened, becoming smaller and smaller, until only a faint shadow remained.

Sizzle!

Finally, Lu Jun's soul reached out and grasped both ends of the snake soul, tearing them apart with great force.

A painful howl rang out, the snake shadow struggled, and was forcibly broken in two, disintegrating into countless strands of dark blue soul power with a bang.

Before Lu Jun could make a move, Platinum Glow overflowed from the neck of his Spirit Body, outlining the shape of White Tiger Pendant, and bursting out with a strong attraction, with the vast expanse of dark blue soul power gathering inside.

"White Tiger Pendant?"

Lu Jun was surprised, but considering that the White Tiger Pendant was bound to his own soul and involved in the realm of killing and absorbing souls, it wasn't surprising that it could manifest in the Spiritual World of the Giant Serpent of the Sea.

Moments later, his entire soul vanished into the collapsing darkness and nothingness, returning to his original form.

Hmm! On the ship's deck, Lu Jun clutched his head, feeling a bit of pain—the injury inflicted by the Snake King's dying counterattack.

To leave one's Soul Evasion and enter another's soul domain to fight is undoubtedly the most dangerous act. Only someone who has cultivated to the seventh level of spiritual cultivation and combined it with Super Rank Mind Element would dare to do such a thing.

The effect was astonishing. The Jiehai Grand Duke Snake on the surface of the sea shuddered, then fell helplessly into the depths of the ocean, its Life Aura rapidly dissipating, and it perished instantly!

Lu Jun also introspected the White Tiger Pendant. On the Bloody Great Marsh, the power of the Serpent Lord's soul condensed into a radiant, Azure Great Sun. He had obtained the Remnant Soul of Monarch Level being, which shone brightly alongside the Remnant Soul of the Dark Sword Master beside him.

For a moment, the blood-red world seemed to have gained two more cold, gloomy suns.

Seeing this, Lu Jun nodded in satisfaction. "A good haul; even the monarch's corpse is worth some money."

The passengers on the ship were initially shocked to see the infamous and majestic Serpent King of the Mediterranean Sea slain, but they were also relieved and began to look at Lu Jun with admiration.

With the death of the Jiehai Grand Duke Snake, the two powerful ghostly figures of Qiankun and Qiankun weakly dissipated into the air, and the two black and white Ghost Shadow mountains on the sea surface suddenly disappeared.

After this battle, Lu Jun finally understood the power of the Seventh Realm of spiritual cultivation. If he were to master Super Rank Curse Element magic, what would become of him? Wouldn't a single Super Rank spell reduce Sub-Lord to ashes?

It should be noted that Zu Xiangtian of the Zu Family is a first-level Super Rank Curse Element cultivator. With the Curse Body Borrowing Technique, which combines Super Rank magic with the family's Magic Tool, he can unleash combat power that surpasses even that of a legitimate monarch.

His skill in Curse Element techniques is not much different.

With the snake king out of danger, the tourists on the ship relaxed, and instantly a chorus of wails erupted.

In the initial volley of poisonous water arrows from the Jiehai Grand Duke Snake, most of the tourists were hit, their flesh pierced, the toxins spreading, their skin turning a dark green, and they were all on the verge of death.

The captain watched this scene anxiously, but there was nothing he could do; the ship's doctors had already come out and tried their best to save him.

Unfortunately, these Healing System mages were only at the Intermediate Level of cultivation and were not disciples of Parthenon, so their healing abilities were questionable. They were lucky if they could hold onto one or two seriously injured and dying passengers; they were simply unable to save the lives of most people.

Unfortunately, these snake venoms are extremely dangerous. If not treated promptly, even a small amount of venom from a minor injury can spread and damage the flesh, leading to serious injury or even death.

A sense of despair permeated the ship, and even the ship's doctor's repeated reassurances that he would do his best could not quell the unrest.

Seeing this, Jun Yaojin couldn't bear it and stepped forward, whispering to the captain, "I am a maid of the Parthenon."

Upon hearing this, the captain was overjoyed and said, "Great! As long as you can save the passengers' lives, the businesses behind us will reward you with one million per person!"

Jun Yaojin busied herself, drawing Star Chart and summoning one emerald green Healing Sprite after another. She also used the Primary Magic, Healing Light, essentially forming a large, professional medical team to provide emergency care.

What sank the captain's heart was that even Parthenon's Healer Mage couldn't arrive in time; the injuries from the Monarch Level snake venom were too difficult to treat and required repeated treatments.

Chapter 441 Infinite 'Firepower'

"Don't worry, your sister will take care of it quickly."

Jun Yaojin, with her beautiful and gentle face, softly comforted a girl Size Change. She had been pierced through the thigh by a highly poisonous water arrow, and if the leg was not amputated immediately, the poison would spread to her heart, endangering her life!

Blood trickled from the corner of the girl's mouth, her eyes were blank and dim, her body collapsed limply to the ground, a pool of blood lay around her lower body, and her Life Aura was rapidly fading.

Seeing this, Jun Yaojin's forehead was covered in sweat. A ball of emerald light in her hand spread out in circles of ripples, nourishing the girl's body. The dark green poisonous blood was gradually expelled, and the stubborn poisonous elements evaporated with a hiss, with wisps of eerie green Green Smoke rising.

Immediately afterwards, the bloody wound on the girl's groin healed and formed a lump.

Seeing that the little girl's vital signs had stabilized, she didn't even have time to breathe a sigh of relief, because there were still a lot of people lying nearby groaning, and some were even unconscious, unable to make a sound.
