The black and red cursed threads also affected the soul, entangling the soul of the Four-Clawed Commander Eagle, making its body stiff and its struggle somewhat powerless. It could only tear apart a large area of spider web in one breath with the remaining force of inertia, but it was too weak and was trapped deep in the Curse Well World.

One by one, the Soul Devouring Evil Spider sprang into action, climbing onto the leader, the White Demon Eagle, and devouring its flesh and soul.

Ghost Execution of Through-the-Net · Green-faced Ghost Fiend!

Lu Jun regained control, beat the drenched chicken severely, and his eyes blazed with a dark red light. From the depths of the dark red world all around, a huge, ferocious blue-faced Green-Faced Fanged Evil Ghost emerged, as if Netherworld Opens, and evil energy surged.

Squeak squeak squeak!

The evil spiders, now emboldened, became excited and, under the influence of the netherworld's Killing Aura, their power truly increased significantly.

The Green-faced Ghost Fiend, as if a general had gained soldiers, also saw his combat power soar. He suddenly charged forward, transforming into a three-zhang tall figure, and climbed onto the back of the enormous Four-Clawed Commander Eagle, biting down hard.

With a piercing scream, the Four-Clawed Commander Eagle let out a mournful cry. The overlapping Soul Phantom a semi-transparent, twisted giant eagle, visibly torn apart, its wings ripped off.

Lu Jun's move was extremely vicious, severely damaging the soul of the Four-Clawed Commander Eagle, rendering it unable to use its sorcery for the time being.

To achieve this level of skill with a cultivation level one level higher is not only inseparable from the support of one's spiritual realm and Curse Substance, but also from the fact that the Curse Element itself is a Magic System that has been cultivated over a long period of time.

The longer the accumulation, the more amazing the results.

Previously, when Lu Jun God Ascension State, he used this move, combining the Dark Plane Passage with the Cursed Well, to drag Luo Mian into the abyss.

However, its power back then was incomparable to that of now; a swarm of spiders gnawing was no match for a swarm of ghosts tearing it apart.

Rumble!

Despite this, the White Demon Eagle excels in physical strength, with its Four-Clawed Commander Eagle, crimson crest, and neck feathers that spread like a fan. With a roar, it shakes wildly.

As the opponent struggled violently, the immense force shook the entire Curse Well World, threatening to collapse this temporary small space, causing continuous fluctuations.

Large swaths of spiderwebs were torn apart by the wings of the Commander-level, falling like willow catkins, or like layers of an onion being peeled back to reveal the sunlit world outside.

But when it burst out of the cursed well, it was met with an astonishing twelve-meter-long celestial sword. The Black Gold Dragon Pattern Sword was enveloped in a vast gray-white Tribulation Qi, its terrifying sharpness Killing Aura soaring into the sky.

Pfft!

The Commander-level defense was useless, piercing straight through the White Demon Eagle's thick chest, feathers flying, and blood gushing everywhere.

The Metal Element [Death Tribulation] unleashes its power, dealing true damage and ignoring both physical and magical defense.

The Four-Clawed Commander Eagle out a long, sharp cry, swayed in mid-air, and could no longer maintain its flight.

Rumble!

Lu Jun's Killing Intent was fully revealed. He activated the initial stage of the Summoning System [Borrowed Magic], and then the advanced stage [Silent Thunder Death Ray - Thunder Arm]!

His arms swelled to a full circle, with dense, thick bolts of lightning climbing up them. In his palms, three-inch flying swords breathed out Tribulation Qi. Propelled by the lightning beams, they merged with electromagnetism and unleashed a devastating attack.

In an instant, lightning flashed, resembling a purple sun rising above the fortress, attracting the attention of everyone on the battlefield.

A white rainbow pierced the sun, Four-Clawed Commander Eagle's massive head instantly exploded like a watermelon, killing it on the spot. Unable to rise again, it fell helplessly from mid-air.

Lu Jun has once again slain Commander-level today, marking his fourth consecutive kill, all ending with Metal Element. His monstrous level is beyond doubt. If he were to advance to a higher level, he would absolutely be able to sweep through enemies of the same realm.

Phew!

At the moment the eagle fell, a sharp whistling sound rang out from the top of the white, stormy clouds, shaking the air.

Upon hearing this voice, Lu Jun instantly entered God Ascension State, his face covered in curse marks, his long hair as white as snow. He first made a cut in the void, opening up a space to take in the corpse of the White Demon Eagle commander.

Twenty million in hand.

Immediately afterwards, he took a step forward, Teleportation, and appeared on the fortress, leaving the battlefield without looking back.

Immediately, the 'grayish-white' storm in the sky stopped abruptly, and the dense clouds dispersed in all directions, revealing the main event.

Ten Four-Clawed Commander Eagle appeared first, like patches of white clouds, calling to their companions. A large group of smaller, smaller White Demon Eagle followed, acting as their henchmen.

Above them, a majestic and imposing eagle was being lifted up, unruly and exuding an aura of supreme nobility, its power enveloping the entire city, just like a monarch.

The giant eagle's feathers were completely different from those of all the White Demon Eagle. They were pure silver without a trace of any other color, and had a metallic luster. They were crystal clear and sharper than a steel blade.

The head of the Silver Giant Eagle was as large as a room, with each hair on the top of its head standing on end, forming a fan-shaped silver crown. It possessed its own wind blade domain, and a vast, flowing galaxy of energy swirled around its body.

This is the overlord of the West Ridge, the Silver Dome Lord!

With the monarch eagle at the top, the Four-Clawed Commander Eagle as the general, and the General-level eagles as subordinates, they form a terrifying formation with a pyramid structure, their breaths of wind intertwined.

To harm the Silver Dome Lord is tantamount to simultaneously facing the power of this group of Demon Beast minions.

Monarch-Level Demon usually have subordinates, making them not so easy to kill.

Similarly, the same applies to Commander-level. They are usually protected by their clans, and to kill one, one must overcome numerous obstacles and exhaust one's magical energy.

At this moment, the Silver Dome Lord stared angrily at Lu Jun below. It was its momentary carelessness that led to the loss of a general before the decisive battle, making the war of attrition unsustainable, which is why it hastily appeared.

Inside the fortress, Lu Jun felt a chill run down his spine. Even with the army surrounding him, he felt no sense of security, as if the enemy could descend at any moment and crush him.

He didn't plan to risk participating in the war anymore. His magical energy was no longer at its peak, and after another battle, annihilating a clan and its leader, he was already almost completely exhausted.

The remaining magical energy will be used to activate the God Ascension State, and to escape the battlefield at any time if the situation turns unfavorable.

Anyway, Lu Jun did his best this time and made a huge profit.

Chapter 198 Hangzhou in Crisis

On the fortress, Zhu Meng glanced at Lu Jun, slightly surprised.

As expected of the designated National Mansion Captain, his skill combo was fluid and seamless, cleanly and decisively slaying a Commander-level beast. Many high-ranking beasts do not possess such combat power.

And that last one... was it Teleportation? Or maybe it was a combination of Shadow Escape and a misaligned Shadow Shift.

He seemed lost in thought, but didn't delve into it further. Dark Magic at higher levels could produce all sorts of bizarre effects, but dealing with the powerful demon king was more important at the moment.

At this moment, Zhu Meng, gazing arrogantly at the Silver Dome Lord of the sky, stepped forward, blocking Lu Jun's path, and roared, "You feathered beast, get out of the human city!"

Upon hearing the voice of the tiny human, the Silver Giant Eagle shifted its gaze from Lu Jun to Zhu Meng, a look of disdain in its eyes.

With a cry, it spread its wings, like clouds hanging from the sky, obscuring the sun and casting a vast shadow that enveloped the fortress. Its majestic form was comparable to that of a city.

Immediately afterwards, the Silver Dome Lord's thick silver feathers shimmered with light, like countless silver stars suddenly appearing in the night sky. Upon closer inspection, however, they were actually billions of silver wind blades about to fall.

All the mages were terrified. The Wind Seed mastered by the Monarch Level corresponds to at least the Soul level or above for a mage, and there are even Heavenly Seed among them. Any random demonic spell can destroy the world and is much stronger than Super Rank magic.

If those billions of silver blades of light were allowed to fall, most of the Military Mage on the fortress would die; they simply couldn't withstand it.

Damn it!

Zhu Meng's expression changed drastically. He was most proficient in the Lightning Fire elements, both of which he had reached the second level of the Super Rank, and he had mastered the power of Supernatural Power. He had even created special matching Magic Tool.

In terms of output capability, he is Super Rank -class being, belonging to the type whose actual combat strength exceeds his cultivation level. This is why he holds a transcendent position, higher than ordinary councilors.

Conversely, his defenses are weak, and his wind and earth elements are barely Super Rank, just enough to be effective. He cannot set up a defense to block the fortress in such a short time.

"The Earth Dragon Vein!"

Just as the brutal massacre was about to take place, a powerful shout came from the distant horizon.

Rumble!

In an instant, the fortress shook, and the nearby mountains writhed, moving astonishingly, rising with a roar to form a magnificent canopy that blocked the dense array of silver light blades outside.

Large, fine, sharp blades sliced the rocky dragon vein into pieces, causing it to crumble inch by inch. Smoke and dust billowed, creating a violent sandstorm around the fortress and making the air murky.

Lu Jun looked back and saw several figures rising and descending rapidly within Hangzhou City; they were none other than Chief Judge Tang Zhong and other Super Rank powerhouses.

On the Fortress City walls, the Super Rank of Hangzhou gathered together, vowing to defend Hangzhou to the death.

"Well done! Human territory is inviolable."

Zhu Meng shouted with great spirit and power, summoning his own Magic Tool and combining it with his Supernatural Power to elevate his combat strength to the extreme.

Heavenly Thunder Palace Armor! Blazing Wings! Thunder Sun Spear!

A pale bolt of lightning struck the sky without warning, illuminating the entire mountain forest, like a divine punishment brought down upon the Mortal World.

The pale lightning was shocking and astonishing, striking Zhu Meng directly. In its dazzling brilliance, the armor filled with arcs of lightning draped over his body. The majestic lightning armor seemed to be a gift from heaven, sacred and awe-inspiring.

At the same time, a pair of wings, layered like a sea of fire, spread out behind Zhu Meng, who held a crimson spear, with violent purple lightning intertwining around him, like a blazing purple sun rising slowly.

"Kill!" He charged forward first, engaging in close combat with the Silver Dome Lord was entrenched at the edge of the sky, followed closely by several Super Rank.

Seeing this, the mages on West Ridge Fortress were greatly encouraged and exclaimed excitedly, "It's Councilor Zhu Meng! That's right, Demon Beast have monarchs, and we also have Super Rank mages!"

For a time, the high-altitude battlefield was divided into several layers, from high to low. At the top was the battle between the Super Rank and Silver Dome Lord, in the middle were high- Commander-level fighting one-on-one, and at the bottom was the legion of Elementary Mage taking turns casting spells.

Seeing Zhu Meng's every move brimming with magic, Lu Jun felt a sense of longing. He was also on the edge of the battlefield, fighting on the periphery, yet still had the energy to observe the Super Rank battles at the top.

The situation is not good. At first glance, the scene created by Zhu Meng and others is grand, with Magic Radiance from various elements illuminating half the sky. In reality, they cannot even break through the Silver Dome Lord's Silver Wind Domain.

The giant eagle was completely unharmed.

This monarch is very cunning. He seems to understand the fighting style of human mages very well, focusing on the big picture and letting go of the small details. Whenever Super Rank mage begins to concentrate on depicting the [Star Palace], he will mobilize countless fine silver blades to attack and interrupt the connection of the stars.

With only Super Rank magic capable of inflicting some damage and High-level Magic almost ineffective, the Silver Dome Lord maintained control of the tempo, slowly depleting the human mage's mana.

The higher the level of magic, the greater the workload of its release. A high-level constellation with 343 stars can be constructed in two or three seconds, while a Super Rank -Super Rank Star Palace with 2401 stars is rarely controlled so quickly.

Only a powerful individual like Zhu Meng, who possessed 'Supernatural Power' and could instantly create magic at the Super Rank level, posed a slight threat, and he had always been the main attacker.

Unfortunately, Zhu Meng was alone and unable to turn the tide; humanity was at a disadvantage and suffered repeated defeats.

"We absolutely cannot allow the Silver Dome Lord to break into the city."

Zhu Meng gritted his teeth and shouted, his body bursting with lightning and fire. He resolutely shouldered his spear, transforming into an arrow that streaked across the sky like a meteor, crashing fiercely into the heavy airflow barrier surrounding the Silver Dome Lord.

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed from the clouds as a line of fire cleaved through the vast silver vortex. The fire spread outwards, continuously expanding into a boundless sea of Lightning Fire and fire, incinerating most of the pure silver domain.

However, this is only the only gain the human mage has made so far in the fight.

Despite the breach in the outer domain of the Silver Dome Lord, he remained calm and composed. He raised his sky-covering wings and flapped them fiercely, instantly darkening the sky. The clouds crashed down, and a fierce wind raged, creating a sense that the heavens were about to collapse.

The next moment, Zhu Meng flew backward at several times the speed of his charge, transforming into a meteorite interwoven with purple and red, falling from thousands of meters in the air.

Boom! The mountains and forests trembled, a corner of the fortress collapsed, and several city walls and streets were instantly reduced to nothing by the impact.

The Guardian Mage were in uproar, incredulous. How could a Super Rank mage, symbolizing the highest level of human magic, have been defeated so quickly?!

A sense of despair hung over the West Ridge Fortress.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Surrounded by White Demon Eagle, the Silver Dome Lord slowly crossed the sky above the fortress in a vast expanse of silvery-white clouds, looking down upon all living beings with haughty arrogance, as if trampling human dignity under its claws.

The road ahead was smooth and unobstructed, revealing the heartland of Hangzhou, which seemed destined to be ravaged by Demon Beast.

Seeing this, Lu Jun sighed. He was only at the high level; it was too early for him to participate in such a level. It was already good enough that he could resolve the internal troubles. As for the external threats, he could only pray that the Xuan Snake could complete its transformation as soon as possible.

In the ruins of the fortress, Zhu Meng's Magic Tool gun turned into a slowly dying flame, and the Thunder Armor that protected his life was now shattered.

Councilor Zhu Meng coughed up mouthfuls of blood. He barely managed to sit up, staring at the terrifying monarch-like demon in the sky with resentment and anger.

The ruler of West Ridge is far stronger than imagined; even several of their Super Rank mages working together cannot defeat it.

Hangzhou is in a state of emergency! Sharp alarms sounded throughout the city, and crimson lights illuminated the sky.

All the citizens looked up blankly, and as they heard the broadcast and saw the image of West Ridge Fortress projected by the Wei Fang, their faces gradually turned panicked.

This place is prosperous and has enjoyed peace for a long time; it has never seen such a scene before.

"Why is this happening? Where is the Super Rank Councilor? Stop the Demon Beast!"

Chapter 199 The Mysterious Serpent's Metamorphosis, Defeating the External Enemy

On the other side, deep in the White Mountain.

A majestic, winding, dark blue serpent lay coiled on a towering mountain peak, its enormous head crawling on the ground, its gaping maw seemingly bottomless.

Tang Yue, Lu Mei, and Leng Qing fed the Blood Agent containing the diseased blood into the snake's mouth.

The Totem Mysterious Snake swallowed the totem whole, closed its eyes, and silently digested the food, its aura surging and churning.

Faced with the behemoth of Monarch Level, Lu Mei and her companion dared not approach and kept their distance.

Only Tang Yue stepped forward, leaned against the snake's cheek, gently stroked its fine scales, and said softly, "Big guy, no one is bothering you anymore, hurry up and molt."

"By the way, we have to thank someone for this, his name is Lu Jun. He found out the truth about the plague and saved us from the pressure from the councilors. Remember to look after him when the time comes, right, everyone?"
