Demon Relic / Clearing Out the Giant Lizard Tribe

As for the latter, Lu Jun played with the [Blood Seed] and sensed a deep evil aura and power. His body and soul trembled, a crushing force at the level of life itself.

"As expected, it contains a portion of the Red Demon's essence, and in essence, it possesses the nature of the Evil Saint King."

Lu Jun murmured to himself, lost in thought.

Lu Nian, who was on the verge of death in the deep pit, chuckled weakly, "Hehehe, so your target is also [Demon Element], no different from me, right?"

"Oh, right." He suddenly realized, his eyes burning with renewed fervor. "Everyone wants to control power. Even if I die, others will follow in my footsteps."

Lu Nian, with the air of a martyr, constantly tempted Lu Jun to refine the Blood Seed, giving him a sense of honor that even in death, his path would have successors.

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun looked down at Lu Nian, slowly raised a few Blood Seed, and said with a strange expression, "Do you think I would refine this kind of power? Hahaha, I will only destroy it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Nian's pupils contracted slightly. With a look of horror, Lu Jun clenched his hands and threw him away with great force. The Night Thunder Dream Beast beside him opened its mouth and spat out a bolt of lightning.

Boom!

A dazzling burst of dark purple lightning flashed in mid-air, completely destroying several Blood Seed.

"No!!"

Lu Nian was deeply shocked and screamed in anguish.

The Demon Element was his ambition, and also a tool for self-deception and faith. In the Original Timeline, after Mo Fan was transformed into a demon, even at the moment of death, he showed no remorse whatsoever, only fear of death.

Right now, Lu Jun is destroying the culmination of most of his life's work right in front of him, which is undoubtedly killing him and destroying his spirit!

After Lu Nian was expelled from the Wei Fang, all the data on the Demon Element was destroyed. Only a few mages remembered it, but they had all died before. The few remaining Blood Seed are the last traces of their existence.

If Lu Jun destroys it, it will disappear from the world, and then it will have no meaning or value.

"Haha, how about it? Don't rush, this is just the beginning. You still have many more tricks up your sleeve."

Lu Jun's smile was like a devil's in front of Lu Nian, his eyes flashing with Curse Magic. Together with the Night Thunder Dream Beast, he constructed an eternal nightmare, imprisoning Lu Nian's soul inside forever.

When Mo Fan arrived with Killing Intent, he saw Lu Jun emerge from the deep pit, tossing things around in his hand.

Upon closer inspection, he saw several crystalline, blood-red Beads, exuding an ominous aura that made him extremely uneasy.

"What is this?" Mo Fan asked doubtfully, and said angrily, "Where is that guy? If you dare to mess with me, I will whip the corpse."

"This is called the Demon Relic. Lu Nian has already gone to hell."

Lu Jun said meaningfully, "Of course I'm reluctant to destroy the relic. It's Mo Fan's cheat code and also the source of my own Curse Element Curse Substance."

What happened just now was merely a spatial trick; he absorbed it into the space he created before it was destroyed.

The Space Mage's ability allows them to create a space around themselves, making it much more convenient to collect materials for hunting demons without having to carry them in their backpack.

Chapter 179 Demon Relic

Mo Fan was slightly taken aback. "Lu Nian is dead?"

He walked to the edge of the charred pit, leaned down and looked down, and saw a twisted and bloody corpse, a horrifying sight, clearly the victim of inhuman torture before death.

And he saw the terrified and desperate face of Lu Nian's corpse; even in death, the facial muscles had not relaxed.

Aside from the physical body, it is the soul that truly suffers!

But Mo Fan remained expressionless, showing no sympathy whatsoever. On the contrary, he felt it wasn't enough to vent his anger, since he hadn't personally taken action.

Lu Jun still harbored resentment towards Lu Nian from Magic City, and was determined to seek revenge. Just like Mo Fan, he used high-sounding righteousness to make people sacrifice themselves, especially as experimental subjects, which was undoubtedly the most disgusting thing.

"He got off too easily with this old dog."

Mo Fan spat out a mouthful of phlegm, then turned to Lu Jun and asked, "By the way, what is Demon Relic?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun smiled mysteriously, separated one of the Blood Seed from his collection, tossed it to Mo Fan, and explained, "Lu Nian's death is not a pity, but his Demon Element can indeed be fully realized on you."

Mo Fan, who was in the distance, hurriedly caught the Blood Seed, and upon hearing this, he almost threw the Demon Relic away again.

He exclaimed in horror, "Holy crap, Lao Lu, you're not planning to use me for experiments, are you?"

"Let me finish," Lu Jun said, shaking his head. "Each time the Demon Element is activated, it requires drawing far more magical energy than other beings of the same level. For Intermediate Level beings, it requires more than two Nebula, and for high-level beings, it requires more than three galaxies. Therefore, it can never succeed."

"And you, Innate Dual Elements, possess four Intermediate Level Nebula and a full six high-level star rivers, more than enough to sustain the Blood Seed, making it the most suitable Magic System for you."

Faced with Lu Jun's patient persuasion, Mo Fan felt a chill run down his spine and quickly gave up, saying, "Forget it, I'm not interested. I'm confident that I can grow stronger on my own and not be weaker than this power."

Lu Jun chuckled lightly, saying meaningfully, "That's right, but isn't your staying here also a trump card? When things come to a head, if you need to fight to the death, you can use the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique."

Mo Fan had originally intended to discard the Demon Relic, but upon hearing this, he hesitated and obediently accepted it.

Yes, he is Mo Fan and powerful, and many people secretly envy and resent him. He must keep a trump card up his sleeve.

Then Lu Jun told Mo Fan about the various taboos of the Demon Element: "After you transform into Demon Element, your cultivation level in all elements will decrease by one level, and you will also suffer a backlash to your soul."

"However, if the latter can accumulate a massive amount of Demon Beast essence in advance, it can easily resist."

Mo Fan was becoming increasingly tempted by what he heard, but then he suddenly realized that the side effects were not significant at all, and were within acceptable limits. It wasn't the self-destruction and monster transformation he had imagined.

He fell into deep thought, "For me, Little Loach, collecting essences is a piece of cake, isn't it?"

Seeing this, Lu Jun concluded with a key point. "Whether you advance to a higher or Super Rank, don't rush to awaken a new element. The Demon Element should be your top priority; it will only benefit you in the future."

"Alright, I might not need the Demon Relic. We'll see when the time comes."

Mo Fan was puzzled, but he agreed nonetheless.

Then Lu Jun remained silent. He was certain that Mo Fan would use it sooner or later before reaching the Super Rank, even if he didn't awaken the Demon Element at the High-Tier level, the Super Rank awakening would be the same.

Whether it's saving the monkey in the Ancient Capital or rescuing his wife Xin Xia at the Parthenon Temple after the National Prefecture War, it really wouldn't be complete without Demon Element.

Mo Fan was destined to walk this path sooner or later, because he needed this power!

Currently, besides obtaining the Demon Relic to create the Curse Substance, Lu Jun has only managed to get Mo Fan to use it less often, perhaps once or twice.

After all, it was a huge loss to waste half a year and even downgrade a level just to unlock the Demon Element for Lu Nian, a piece of trash, which delayed his growth time considerably.

It should be noted that in the Original Timeline, Mo Fan Demonization and spent four months in Dongting Lake. After coming out, he spent another two months cultivating back, essentially wasting his entire second semester of freshman year.

Lu Jun pondered that in half a year, with Mo Fan's dual-elemental level three status, it should be more than enough to continuously hunt demons and accumulate enough Star River Vein, at least enough to reach the high-level before going to the Ancient Capital.

In the original story Mo Fan was burdened by many obstacles, resulting in an imperfect growth trajectory. Honestly, without the burden of the Demon Element and by not meddling in major affairs, he might have already broken through the forbidden spell before the Holy City targeted him.

He put away the remaining Demon Relic and ignored them. His real target was Lu Nian's Demon Relic. As for Mo Fan's trajectory, he was just an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire. It was good to be able to set things up along the way.

The Blood Source of Commander-level vampire combined with Demon Relic should be able to create top-quality [Curse Substance].

Everything is ready except for the final push. The only missing piece is a high-level Curse Element- type item. I need to gather a Star River Vein, have fifty to sixty million in hand, and hunt down many Demon Beasts.

Just then, Lu Jun was gazing at the battlefield in the city center not far away.

Between several tall buildings, a continuous roar echoed, and terrifying High-level Magic light flashed. With a casual strike, hundreds of Earth Lizard Giant Demons were crushed into mincemeat.

Meanwhile, Lu Mei and Zhan Kong, two high-level Wind Element, were holding back a Commander-level pseudo-dragon in mid-air.

Mo Fan was standing nearby, also witnessed this scene. The overwhelming tide of lizards surged in, but was firmly held back by four High-Order Mages, leaving him in awe.

Lu Jun turned to Mo Fan and said mysteriously, "A single clan is not something Intermediate Level cultivator can handle. You should leave Golden Forest Wasteland City first."

"Remember to capture Lu Zhenghe alive as well. He'll be a witness to Lu Nian's crimes. I'll have a clever use for him then, hehehe... I should be responsible for the training organized by the Imperial Capital Academy, right?"

"Oh, oh, oh." Mo Fan's eyes lit up like a cat that had just stolen some cream, and he grinned slyly, "Let's extort a hefty sum from the capital as compensation for emotional distress, loss of life and property, and oh yeah, the military too."

The two Innate Dual Elements and were desperate for money, so they went on a money-making spree by extorting others.

Mo Fan Shadow Escape vanished in an instant.

Lu Jun stared at the battlefield before him, then summoned the Night Thunder Dream Beast to join the battle.

Buzz buzz buzz!

He summoned the Black Gold Dragon Pattern Sword, and a three-foot-long black light expanded in the wind, transforming into a giant blade over three zhang long. He stepped on it in mid-air and flew towards the mountain peak where the giant lizard's nest was located.

In mid-air, Lu Jun looked down at the earth, where more than 10,000 Earth Lizard Giant Demon surged about, a dark mass like an ocean.

When there are more than ten thousand people, it becomes a sea of people; when there are more than ten thousand demons, it becomes endless.

Originally, a clan consisted of fifty nests, which, even excluding the old, weak, sick, and disabled, amounted to two thousand five hundred members. However, the appeal of the pseudo-dragon leader far surpassed that of the White Sturgeon Demon, vampires, and the like, naturally exceeding the standard by tens of thousands.

This is the difficulty in hunting down a ruling monarch; one must clip his wings before directly targeting the true king.

He glimpsed the figure of the Night Thunder Dream Beast transforming into a shadow, climbing and spreading up the majestic peak's nest, reaching the place where the pseudo -Pseudo-dragon Giant Lizard was entrenched, where the Nightmare Domain unfolded, staring and confronting the massive dragon, which was tens of meters tall.

"As for numbers, Water Element mages aren't afraid of large groups at all."

Lu Jun exuded an imposing aura, with surging water vapor rising into the sky from his body. Water Silk Flood Dragon coiled and climbed across his body, weaving together dragon patterns and crystalline Illusion Scales. A bright blue pearl floated above his head, illuminating the mountains and rivers, with countless wisps of mist hanging down.

Unbeknownst to him, the flying sword beneath his feet had vanished, replaced by a surging blue river.

Chapter 180 Eradicating the Giant Lizard Tribe

Splash!

Lu Jun stood with his hands behind his back, surrounded by a constellation depicting a stormy and turbulent scene, his feet treading on the Milky Way, exuding a majestic and imposing aura, much like Water Lord.

The fifth-level Water Shield is enhanced, the high-level Water Glory Sky Curtain provides cover, and finally, there is the Intermediate Level fourth-level Storm Wave!

At that moment, the magical energy he unleashed attracted the attention of four High-Order Mages were locked in fierce combat.

At the same time, the hideous and ugly dragon on the mountain peak stared at them, and under the stimulation of the crisis, its scales opened up like fans.

It looked around, especially at the nearby hidden Sub-Commander who would occasionally use their Nightmare Domain to interfere with it, making it impossible to defend against, and a sense of irritation rose within it.

Although the pseudo-dragon was guarded by ten Great General and surrounded by a vast number of subjects, it felt unusually insecure, as it keenly sensed a life-or-death crisis.

In the sky, Lu Jun went all out. In the city, he was mindful of the destructive power and did not exert his full strength. But in the wilderness, he could finally unleash this terrifying power without restraint.

Below, the densely packed black tide of Servant-level demonic beasts is incredibly tempting. Calculating the shortage of essence, there are Intermediate Level fourth-tier Metal Element, Intermediate Level fourth-tier Curse Element, Intermediate Mind Element, and Intermediate Level fourth-tier Space Element beasts eagerly awaiting nourishment.

At least two hundred Servant-level Spirit Essence would be needed; proportionally, that would require wiping out a Demon Beast tribe of tens of thousands.

Furthermore, neither the beginner Intermediate Level Summoning System had ever reached level four, Mo Fan, despite possessing Summoning System, had never attempted to use it.

When I got to Lu Jun's place, I thought I'd try out the level 3 effects of the initial Dimensional Summon Summoning System. These effects are Contract, Summon, and Enhancement. The last effect can give the Summoned Beast a certain boost, but not a significant one.

It's basically useless against Commander-level Night Thunder Dream Beast.

He wondered if there would be any changes at the initial fourth level, such as an additional dimensional Contract Slot?

In short, he needs a large amount of spirit essence to fill the bottomless pit.

Rumble!

Amidst his racing thoughts, Lu Jun steadied himself, threw a punch, and the mighty Milky Way surged beneath his feet, cascading down three thousand feet like a waterfall. The raging torrent swept across the desolate city, engulfing an entire street.

All the houses, along with the Earth Lizard Giant Demon on them, were swept up and pushed across a thousand meters, staining the azure river crimson, with dark corpses floating on the surface.

Millions of corpses lay strewn about, blood flowed like rivers!

While it doesn't quite reach that level, it's still somewhat similar.

From high above, a distinct azure trench is carved out of the dark ocean, its power undeniable.

Lu Mei, Zhan Kong, and the other three High-Order Mages were amazed. Group attacks were still the forte of Water Element mages. The impact force caused the giant lizards to trample each other.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Lu Jun unleashed the Storm Wave of Heavenly River, punching relentlessly. His Water Domain rose, and countless strands of azure light devoured the Demonic Power, gradually turning it into a dark blue.

One after another, surging rivers of water fell from the sky, like a flock of dragons dancing, ravaging the earth. Buildings collapsed, smoke and dust billowed, the Tide rose high, and large Earth Lizard Giant Demon were swallowed up, their wails echoing through the sky for a long time.

As the waterways and rivers rise, they intertwine to form lakes, gradually submerging the water several meters deep, with the resulting torrents reaching over thirty meters in height.

At this moment, Zhan Kong and Tang Yue stopped releasing high-level Fire Element High-level Magic without permission, so as not to interfere with Lu Jun.

However, upon seeing this scene, the pseudo-dragon leader was enraged by the utterly worthless deaths of his subjects. He braced his enormous fleshy wings to take flight and charge at Lu Jun, attempting to interrupt this terrifying 'gathering of power'.

But the Night Thunder Dream Beast wouldn't stand idly by. It appeared and disappeared among the beasts, its eyes flashing with a dark light, and its surging Mental Power overflowing as it stared at the pseudo-dragon.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The dragon paused, its body stiffening as it remained atop its lair.

Seeing the assassin attack, the surrounding giant lizards growled bloodthirstyly and roared as they charged toward the stag in the center of the formation.

Although the Night Thunder Dream Beast is Commander-level beast, its physical defense is relatively weak. At this moment, it is focusing all its energy on restraining the Pseudo-dragon Giant Lizard. If it is allowed to be torn apart by the warrior, it will also cause serious consequences.

Fortunately, Tang Yue was quick-witted and shouted, "Night Ruler!"
