This is a trap, a setup!

It was horrified, and forcibly endured the excruciating pain as its massive body struggled and thrashed between the deep sea trenches, wreaking havoc with its immense power, and bursting forth with destructive lightning.

Rumble! The Vicious Dragon went berserk. Despite being severely injured, it became increasingly dangerous. Such a ferocious beast was nothing more than this. The rings of azure protective barriers around its body flickered erratically, causing the walls of the surrounding trenches to crack and the seabed plates to shift, creating a great commotion.

Plop~ Plop~, huge rocks crashed into the Black Sea, splashing up towering waves of black water.

Hua Zhanhong, who was originally hovering behind the evil dragon, could only retreat step by step in the face of this indiscriminate attack. In the end, the human body was no match for the Demon Beast.

As for resorting to sneak attacks and lacking martial ethics, he didn't care. It was a three-on-one battle, a survival war that the Nine Provinces had no choice but to win. How could it be considered honorable? Didn't the Sea Monster also rely on their demon sea tactics to invade the Nine Provinces?

At the bottom of the Yellow Springs, Lu Jun transformed into the Holy Spirit Emperor, showing no fear whatsoever. With a flick of his true dragon tail, endless Tide surged forth, and the water flow intertwined to form layers upon layers of protective curtains, forcefully pushing forward against the sea of lightning and thunder above.

Lu Jun was bathed in black lightning, which was completely separated by the heavy and condensed Yellow Spring True Water. The mountain dragon tail slashed down like a long whip, or like a blue pillar of heaven collapsing, splitting open the surging seawater, dividing the black sea in two, and shaking open the vacuum area.

Thump!

The Vicious Dragon was trying to escape by diving into the Mariana Trench, but this sudden, massive blow from the sky caused it excruciating pain in its head, shattered its scales, and caused it to bleed profusely. Dizzy and disoriented, it crashed heavily to the bottom of the Black Sea.

With a deafening roar, the seabed of the Yellow Springs collapsed, countless undercurrents stirred up the chaos, terrifying water pressure was unleashed, and deep Water Vortex appeared and disappeared one after another.

But for the two enormous creatures, it posed no problem at all.

The Vicious Dragon's head was covered in blood, its ferocity aroused. At the same time, the hideous wounds on its upper body, scorched by the Void White Flame, were rapidly writhing, releasing its powerful life force. Streams of blood and qi circulated, leading to its recovery.

Demon Beast of Emperor-level, with virtually no weaknesses in any aspect.

It stared at Lu Jun, knowing full well that it would be difficult to escape without killing the Holy Spirit Emperor, which was standing in its way, so it decisively transformed into its most ferocious form and pounced on him.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The majestic body of the Vicious Dragon erupted with black lightning, its speed suddenly becoming extremely fast, like a black lightning bolt streaking across the seabed, stirring up towering waves.

At the trench's exit, Lu Jun blocked the canyon alone. Seeing the immense impact of the evil Emperor, he remained motionless, gritting his teeth as he met it head-on. He forcefully circulated the Yellow Spring True Water, causing heavy water vapor to flow rapidly around him, making him indestructible.

Thump!

The moment the towering human body and dragon tail collided with the black lightning, an unparalleled force was unleashed, causing the Yellow Springs water curtain to collapse inch by inch. A hideous hole appeared in the chest and abdomen, penetrating from front to back and wrapped with strands of lightning.

A deafening roar echoed across the Pacific Ocean. From high above, one could see ripples slowly spreading from the center of the Mariana Trench. At first glance, it seemed slow, but in reality, it swept across a large part of the ocean with lightning speed.

The entire Southeast Asian region was swept by this wave. From a microscopic perspective, it was not a wave at all, but a colossal tidal wave that nearly submerged dozens of coastal cities in the southeast.

When the commotion subsided, Lu Jun slammed his back against the rock wall, his mountain-like body embedded deep inside, wracked with pain.

The Water Repelling Pearl above his head moved, hovering high in the air, shining like a sun, illuminating the dark seabed, and cascading down billions of brilliant white rays, full of Life Aura, as the Three Lights Divine Water - Sunburst activated.

Immediately, the terrifying wounds on the human-bodied, dragon-tailed body were rapidly healed, and hundreds of rivers of water condensed around it flowed in, refilling the Holy Spirit's water elemental body.

There was no other way. If Lu Jun opened the passage, the Vicious Dragon would force its way through the trench and canyon, pushing against the confinement array, and would break through even at the cost of injury.

The plan to hunt down the Emperor would then completely fail, and would also put the Pacific Empire on its guard.

The only option left is a direct confrontation.

Fortunately, the Vicious Dragon Emperor on the other side was also in bad shape. His upper body, centered on his dragon head, was covered in blood. This kind of explosive sorcery also had side effects.

At this moment, Leader Hua's eyes flashed like lightning, his black hair danced wildly, and he made his move once again. He clenched his hands, and strands of Void White Flame gathered together, as if condensing into an unparalleled heavenly blade, which suddenly slashed down.

An invisible flame raged, Vicious Dragon, still recovering from its fierce battle, shuddered and retracted its tail, attempting to dodge.

It was too late. The dragon's tail, Vicious Dragon Emperor, was severed at the root. A raging sea of white flames burned on the seabed, silently engulfing the black mountain range and burning the dragon's tail to ashes.

But that wasn't all. Dean Xiao stood atop the Starry Sky Altar in the Mermaid Ancestral Land, his eyes cold. He clasped his hands together, and droplets of water rose up, flashing with lightning and blazing golden light. Behind him, a vast starry sky loomed in the distance.

It was clearly the power of a forbidden spell, activated by the three elements of Water Lightning, and light.

These inconspicuous, restrained water droplets silently landed on the black dragon's body, exploding the moment they touched it. Wave after wave of magical energy blazed forth, their powerful force ravaging the dragon's massive body, causing scales to shatter and blood to surge forth.

Roar! The Vicious Dragon a mournful cry and collapsed heavily onto the seabed, its tail severed and its surface covered with numerous pitted wounds.

Lu Jun above took a breath and manipulated the surging Tide, which washed over the Vicious Dragon in layers. The water flowed erratically, and waterfalls of the Yellow Springs cascaded down, causing the Emperor's flesh and blood to gradually dissolve.

He didn't use powerful abilities such as Metal Element Slash, Curse of Life and Death, or Mind Imagination, because these methods were useless under the pressure of a higher level, even with the amplification of the Holy Spirit.

Lu Jun's only resources are the Yellow Spring True Water, which is also Water Element and whose power is maximized under the amplification of the Holy Spirit Emperor, and the Three Lights Divine Water possessed by the Holy Spirit himself.

Sizzle!

The dragon's flesh and blood looked as if they had been splashed with sulfuric acid; its once mighty body became emaciated, and in some places, its white bones were even exposed. It was severely injured once again.

Under the combined attack of three Emperors, the Vicious Dragon was teetering on the brink of collapse and could not hold out for much longer.

Suddenly, its face contorted in a ferocious grimace, and it opened its mouth wide to the sky. The powerful currents of water in this area began to reverse, as if a giant whirlpool had appeared, sucking everything into it...

The debris from the landslide was originally rolling down due to the buoyancy of the seawater, but now it was all beginning to sink into the abyss. The gravity of the Mariana Trench seemed to have reversed, and seawater, rocks, broken mountains... were all heading towards the mouth of the Vicious Dragon.

Chapter 536 The Royal Veil Revives, The Yellow Springs Kingdom

Leader Hua was the first to react, letting out a low roar, "It's going to fight desperately! Burn a portion of its true dragon bloodline essence and unleash its dragon breath!"

Buzz! Both human Forbidden Curse Mage were masters of Space Element. They instantly broke free from the terrifying attraction and hid behind the Vicious Dragon, concealing themselves beneath the Mermaid altar.

The altar, made of some unknown material, remained unscathed even after the aftermath of the Emperor-level battle, which altered the course of the Underworld, branching into countless tributaries.

Upon seeing this, Lu Jun's lips twitched. He suddenly realized that his massive body had become a hindrance, preventing him from dodging nimbly.

Furthermore, what if he opens the passage and lets the Vicious Dragon escape? Wouldn't that be like releasing a tiger back into the mountains?

Lu Jun thought it through in a flash, his face turned cold, and an aura of indifference to life and death emanated from him. The two pearls of the sun and moon that surrounded him shone brightly, arousing surging Tide and condensing into layers of immortal water curtains.

Rumble!

The Vicious Dragon mad, and the devouring force from all directions slowly disappeared, beginning to transform from inhalation to exhalation. Its majestic dragon body overflowed with billions of jets of black lightning, and from the deep sea, a black sun seemed to leap forth, approaching the vast ocean and unleashing world-destroying thunder!!

Just as Lu Jun was about to face the desperate attack of the Vicious Dragon, a familiar, melodious voice suddenly echoed in his mind. The Mermaid Empress said in a cold and urgent voice, "Don't move. Leave your body to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jun lost control of his body, as if he were just an observer.

His enormous elemental body collapsed, transforming into countless streams of Light Water. The Water- Water Repelling Pearl and the Town River Pearl hung high in the sky, like the sun and moon, and the stars shone brightly.

At this moment, Lu Jun's senses were wondrous, his own being constantly gathering and dispersing, half of his origin returning to the starry sky, vast and boundless, and the other half plunging into the ocean, Bestowed Kindness is Like Water.

Raging!

The Vicious Dragon Emperor unleashed a thunderous dragon breath, sweeping across the vast ocean. Everything before him crumbled inch by inch under the destructive lightning, and large swathes of seawater evaporated.

In the Mariana Trench, a blazing black sun rises, wiping out billions of lives, and surging waves sweep in all directions with overwhelming force.

As the commotion subsided, the sea sank, and wisps of lightning intertwined, repelling the seawater and briefly creating a vacuum, revealing the trench. The already continuous ravines and fissures, stretching for thousands of miles, expanded twice as much, and a dark hole appeared in the middle section.

For centuries to come, this sea area will be shrouded in lightning.

On the seabed, the Black Sea disappeared. Through the ravine, a faint light shone in, revealing a winding, majestic black dragon lying on the seabed, half of its body submerged in the murky yellow waters of the Yellow Springs. Its body was mangled and its breath was weak.

The Vicious Dragon Emperor's final, desperate strike completely exhausted his last wisp of vital energy.

In a moment, the shallow seawater around them gathered and condensed in mid-air into a towering figure less than a thousand feet tall. The long and agile purple-gold dragon tail swayed, and Lu Jun's face showed deep weakness.

The Holy Spirit Emperor, as expected of someone who survived the Pacific Empire's relentless pursuit, possessed a powerful life-saving technique that allowed him to evade most of the damage from the Vicious Dragon Emperor.

Even so, Lu Jun was still severely injured. Even though he transformed into billions of seawater, the Bestowed Kindness is Like Water. Under the thunderous breath that evaporated the endless ocean, half of his essence was dissolved.

Meanwhile, beneath a dilapidated altar, the figures of Leader Hua and Dean Xiao emerged. They appeared outwardly normal, but the Magic Radiance around them was faint, clearly indicating that they were also nearing the end of their lives.

The Void White Flame around Leader Hua rose again as he whispered, "There's no time to lose. Kill the Vicious Dragon Emperor. The commotion here is too great; it might attract other Demon Emperor."

Upon hearing this, the three, despite their weakened state, mustered their remaining strength and unleashed a terrifying killing move towards the dying Vicious Dragon Emperor.

Seeing that the Vicious Dragon was about to die, despair filled his eyes, but just then, a sudden change occurred in the Yellow Springs.

Splash!

Originally, the Yellow Springs deep in the trench flowed swiftly, stirring up towering waves that carried billions of white bones into the sky, forming a gigantic hand of withered bones that blotted out the sky. The towering white bone claws were like clouds hanging from the sky, covering an area of a hundred miles, including the three of them.

Dean Xiao exclaimed in horror, "This is the aura of Emperor! Has another Emperor arrived?"

Even Hua Zhanhong, the human leader, was moved. Feeling this vast, Nether Radiance, and Evil Power, he said dryly, "This characteristic belongs to the Queen of the Royal Gauze Skeleton of the Pacific Empire, second only to the Cold Moon Eye Demon God."

Even the three strongest of them couldn't help but feel a sliver of fear.

Lu Jun's expression shifted unpredictably as he looked at Huang Quan, a vague understanding dawning on him.

Yes, the underwater trenches and the underworld are the place where the bones of the seabed settle, connecting to the netherworld. Isn't this within the domain of the Deep Sea Undead Queen?

He looked up at the towering demonic claw formed from billions of white bones that crashed down. Time seemed to slow down at that moment. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. Was it still impossible to avoid using the Ancient King Armor Robe?

If he were to become an Undead Emperor, the consequences would be enormous. He would isolate himself from human society, and the Holy City, Parthenon, and the Magic System associations of the five continents would not let him go.

Having exposed King of Hell' true nature, the Queen of the Royal Gauze Skeleton before him, who had met Pharaoh, would remember this incident vividly. Even if he fled into the Demonic Beast Empire, he would find it difficult to escape the crisis.

Suddenly, the Leader Hua beside him revealed a resolute look in his eyes, and soared into the sky, his entire body distorting the space around him, to confront the white bone demon claws in the sky.

Rumble!

A deafening roar echoed in Lu Jun's ears. He saw countless white bones rising and falling in the sky, and a white crack that split the sky revealed endless skeletons.

Heavenly Mang Crossbow!!! Another Exclusive Forbidden Curse of Hua Zhanhong, originating from the Light Element.

Seeing its companions coming to its rescue, the Vicious Dragon Emperor on the seabed opened its ferocious dragon head and let out a sharp, long roar, as if it had gained hope for survival. It also swung its huge, winding body and joined the battle.

For a time, Hua Zhanhong and his two companions were in a precarious situation.

Lu Jun was about to help when he noticed something amiss. This Royal Skull Overlord, despite being Dominator Emperor, couldn't kill the weakened Leader Hua in one move.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Soon, within his Spiritual World, in the pitch-black Death Element Nebula, a black and gold armor gleamed, and some vast power was about to erupt, as if it sensed a shared aura and was stirring restlessly.

Lu Jun's senses expanded rapidly, and he saw through the true nature of the Yellow Springs.

"I see. He only sent down a portion of his power to control the Yellow Springs to fight the enemy. His true form is on its way."

A sudden inspiration struck him, and his thousand-foot-tall body slowly levitated, standing in the sky, surrounded by the deep, vast ocean. Gazing down at the winding Yellow Springs below, he uttered a low cry, "Yellow Springs Kingdom!"

Splash!

In an instant, centered on Lu Jun, all the seawater transformed inch by inch into dark yellow, extremely yin water. The dark yellow color submerged large areas of seawater, and even the Yellow Springs were rapidly assimilated, absorbing endless skeletons that were successively transformed.

The billions of white bone demonic claws that fought against Hua Zhanhong in the void collapsed silently, all flowing into the Yellow Springs Kingdom, and the power of the Queen of the Royal Gauze Skeleton was suppressed.

Chapter 537 The Decapitated Dragon is Slain, Mission Accomplished!

Rumble!

Lu Jun decisively activated the ultimate profound meaning of the Yellow Spring True Water, and his entire body radiated a magnificent, Nether Radiance.

Centered on him, endless, dim yellow Tide surged and rose, one layer upon another, resembling undulating mountains when viewed from afar, submerging the broken abyss seabed, filling the deep trenches, and assimilating the vast ocean.

From a high altitude, the scorched battlefield in the middle of the Mariana Trench is replaced by a dark yellow Undead Kingdom, with the vast Yellow Springs flowing, billions of skeletons floating and sinking, and countless ghosts and spirits screaming.

Lu Jun ascended, hovering in the sky, his every move stirring up the vast Yellow Springs Kingdom, transforming him into the Great Emperor of the Underworld.

He swallowed up the Yellow Springs that had been settled for tens of thousands of years deep in the Mariana Trench in one gulp. A vast and supremely terrifying aura rose up, the Nether Radiance blotted out the sun, the aura surged to the stars, tore through the atmosphere, and stirred the starry sky.

The will of the Queen of the Royal Gauze Skeleton, who descended from afar, was suppressed.

Fortunately, she only projected a portion of her consciousness; otherwise, even if Lu Jun transformed into Undead Emperor, he might not have been able to wrest the Yellow Springs authority from her.

If the two main contenders for the King of Hell Throne were to meet, it would be a contest of pure strength.

With a whoosh, the pale light at the edge of the underworld gradually faded under the pressure of the dark yellow tide.

Before dissipating, only the projection of the Queen of the Royal Gauze Skeleton remained, her cold voice echoing. "Humans, I will remember you. Next year, when you invade the Nine Provinces, you will slaughter billions and build palaces of white bones."

"Get out!" Lu Jun shouted coldly, confronting Lu Jun head-on. On the path to becoming the King of the King of Hell, the two would eventually have to fight to the death to see whether it would be the slaughter of the Nine Provinces or the slaughter of the Sea Monster that would make King of Hell.

Bang! The pale will was extinguished in the surging waters of the Yellow Springs.

Then Lu Jun looked at a magnificent, pitch-black dragon struggling in the Yellow Springs Kingdom, felt his own boundless power, and slowly stretched out his hands.

The heavens and earth trembled, the Yellow Springs Kingdom was emptied, and billions of skeletons and countless spirits converged wildly, containing ultimate power.

Lu Jun resembled a human body with a dragon's tail, standing tall and majestic, surrounded by vast oceans on all sides. In his hands was a great white bone sword, entwined with countless Vengeful Souls, his aura as imposing as a rainbow.

Kill!

He roared, shaking the four seas and causing the stars to sway. The giant sword, thousands of feet long, slashed down fiercely, as if a pillar of heaven had collapsed, plunging the sky into darkness.

With a soft splatter, the sound of flesh being sliced echoed across the ocean, accompanied by the faint, crisp sound of metal clashing.
