Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

"Anyone who tries to stop us will be dealt with ruthlessly!" Lin Lan's gaze was icy as he looked down at the people at the Parthenon, his voice chillingly cold.

She had no interest in power struggles. Since that was the case, she would use absolute force to utterly tear apart this corrupt authority that occupied the center of the world!
"It's nothing but a monarch-level demonic serpent! How dare this beast, so noble as Parthenon, act so presumptuously?!" the great sage Merora shouted sternly.

Several nearby Golden Knights echoed in unison, their courage surging through their bodies like a tidal wave, and platinum-gold light bursting from their armor. As Merora spoke, she quietly cast a blessing spell, further amplifying their power. The 50% boost, applied to the already transcendent Golden Knights, was nothing short of a complete transformation!

"The Sacred Grand Formation!"

With a long howl, the leading golden knight caused the brilliant constellations of light to intertwine and instantly form a majestic star palace. A full two thousand four hundred and one stars were arranged in orbits, diagrams, and seats in a flash, ultimately transforming into a magnificent palace. Such skill demonstrated that he was a powerful figure who had immersed himself in the super-rank realm for many years!
As soon as the light magic was completed, the other four Golden Knights, proficient in the sacred art of light, also forged their star palaces. The gloomy sky was suddenly torn apart by platinum-gold light, and five giant swords of light, seemingly capable of judging all living beings, crashed down, their blades pointing directly at the totem serpent coiled on the peak!

The black serpent slightly raised its head, its scarlet serpent eyes reflecting the five light swords, keenly sensing the special energy connecting the swords. Once they formed an array, their power would increase exponentially!

This totem, which has lived for countless years, is no ordinary thing. It completely ignored the sword of light hanging above it, and suddenly raised its mountain-like tail, slamming it down on the ground!

"boom!"

The earth trembled violently, and a violent shockwave exploded outwards in a ring. The five golden knights who were about to form a battle formation were blown away like kites with broken strings, their armor and magical tools shattering inch by inch, and they crashed heavily onto the mountain platform, their fate unknown!
"Kill it! Kill it for me!!" Xiao Shen, the deputy hall master of the Judgment Hall, roared madly, his face contorted with rage.

Behind him, two hundred Arbitration Mages stood ready. These were all top-tier high-level mages, yet they were now being suppressed by the overwhelming ferocity of the Totem Serpent, even causing the star charts in their spiritual worlds to become disordered.

The oppressive aura of the demons' hierarchy was like an invisible chasm. It was an absolute suppression originating from the level of life itself, more capable of crushing will than any mental magic!
Even a super-powerful expert like a Golden Knight could barely withstand such fear; but these high-level adjudication mages were already considered to have strong willpower just by keeping their bodies steady and not collapsing to the ground.

"The Drums of War!"

Merora's sonic magic rang out once more, the inspiring magical sounds like a war song, slightly dispelling the gloom in the judge's heart.

In an instant, countless constellations shone brightly among the mage ranks, and a vast starry sky phenomenon flowed above the peak. Mighty elemental energy gathered wildly, and the combined power of nearly two hundred high-level mages was enough to destroy cities and nations!
Sensing the intense energy fluctuations, the totem serpent suddenly lowered its massive body, its ferocious head facing the Judgment Mage Corps.

“Gah!!!!”

The gaping maw suddenly opened, unleashing a black breath that swept out like a cataclysmic storm! Wherever the raging snake breath passed, the magic that the judges had painstakingly gathered instantly collapsed, and the people were thrown into the air before falling like raindrops.

The black serpent ultimately did not intend to kill; its breath contained only the force of wind and no deadly venom. Although most of the judges were in a sorry state, they did not die on the spot.

"A bunch of trash!!" Xiao Shen trembled with rage, and in his fury, a pair of holy golden wings suddenly unfurled from his back!

The wings of light unleashed a dazzling radiance, causing even the most ordinary creatures of darkness to be wounded upon contact. Although Xiao Shen was unsure whether the Black Serpent belonged to darkness, he was certain that anything daring to wreak havoc in the Parthenon must be an evil being!

He spread his wings and soared into the sky, his whole body radiating great light, attempting to blind the black serpent with his intense light.

The black serpent's tongue lashed out like lightning, striking Xiao Shen, who was in mid-air. Xiao Shen reacted extremely quickly, narrowly dodging to the side, while simultaneously unleashing a chilling vortex of air with both palms.

The chill struck the black serpent's scales, quickly condensing into a thick layer of ice that continued to spread outwards. But as the serpent twisted its body, the ice shattered like fragile glass—to this colossal creature, this bit of cold was no different than an ordinary person eating an ice pop!
Seeing his magic being so scorned, Xiao Shen felt as if his chest was about to explode.

……

"Your Highness...Your Highness! Something terrible has happened!!" A female sage rode a deer-like beast and rushed from the direction of the Goddess Palace.

The deer-like beast stopped in front of the temple matriarch. Seeing her flustered appearance, the matriarch immediately frowned and scolded, "Isn't it chaotic enough already? We'll talk about this after they subdue that demonic snake!"

"It's a body...it's Lady Inosa's body, she was...she was..." The female sage stammered, her face filled with terror.

"Speak!" The Empress Dowager's voice was as cold as ice.

"To be torn into eight pieces!!" The sage finally managed to squeeze out these words.

The Palace Mother's expression suddenly changed drastically, her eyes flashing with murderous intent. The female sage was so frightened that she retreated repeatedly. "Go and investigate, but don't make a sound!" the Palace Mother coldly ordered her personal maid.

The maid nodded and immediately mounted the deer-like beast, rushing towards the Goddess Palace with the messenger sage. The Goddess Palace was located on the highest peak, and the deer-like beast could travel there and back in a short time. Although the totem serpent was trapped in the sacred mountain's restrictions and unable to escape for the time being, the Palace Mother had a vague feeling that things were probably not so simple.

Not long after, the deer-like beast returned carrying the personal maid. The maid had just whispered something in the temple matriarch's ear when a commotion, seemingly from nowhere, spread like a plague, and the terrible news quickly reached the entire mountain peak!
"What did you say? Lady Inosuke's body was dismembered into eight pieces??"

"Absurd! Utterly absurd!!"

"Are all you knights good-for-nothings? How could you let thieves break into the Temple of the Goddess?!"

"Who did this? Who on earth did it?!"

The news spread incredibly fast, even reaching Song Qiming's side. He and Judge Reina stood side by side, exchanging a glance, both reading horror in each other's eyes—Yi Zhisha was the previous generation's goddess! Her remains were perfectly preserved in the rear hall of the Goddess Palace, and she would only be cremated when a new goddess took over.

The Mount of Athena is already the most heavily guarded area of ​​the Parthenon; it should never have been allowed to infiltrate. The remains of the previous goddess were dismembered into eight pieces—this is the most blatant desecration of the Parthenon!

“It was a trainee maidservant, a servant of Saint Andrew. She seemed to know she couldn’t escape, and committed suicide by poisoning herself beside the goddess’s body,” the sage reported to the temple matriarch.

At this moment, the anger of the Temple Mother, the Great Sage, and the other Temple Masters reached its peak!

Today is probably the most shameful day for the Parthenon—someone kidnapped the sinner who killed the saint in full view of everyone, and even took advantage of the chaos to desecrate the previous generation of goddesses. It is an unforgivable crime!
"Who's behind this?!" The Palace Mother's furious voice fell, and the platform fell into a deathly silence.

That was the goddess of the previous generation! Behind such heinous crimes must lie a greater conspiracy and a force that completely disregards the Parthenon!
This is tantamount to declaring war on the entire Parthenon!

Mo Fan's actions today were already incredibly audacious, but who could have imagined that he would commit even more heinous and outrageous acts, so blatantly trampling on the majesty of the Parthenon!

"I've long heard that the most powerful miracle of the Parthenon is the great resurrection. I'd like to try and see if someone who has been torn to pieces can be brought back to life!" Just then, a slow, leisurely voice rang out, the words directed at the Temple Mother.

The temple matriarch was taken aback and turned incredulously to a completely unremarkable woman in the guest section.

The woman was dressed in an elegant, plain white dress, perfectly matching the atmosphere of the funeral. She slowly rose from the panicked crowd, her chilling aura standing out starkly from her surroundings.

She wore a wide-brimmed sun hat, and a red lace dress covered her entire face and neck, making it impossible to discern her features... She was like a cold, lifeless female ghost, exuding an aura of death, yet her posture and figure resembled those of an ordinary beautiful woman!
The temple goddess Pamis stared at the man who dared to utter such arrogant words in the Parthenon, her chest heaving violently!
"Conti, what are you doing?!"

"Are you crazy?!"

Many recognized her: Conti of the Ocean Alliance, a highly respected high-ranking female member of the Coastline Alliance. No one expected that Conti harbored such deep hatred for the Parthenon Temple, not only ordering the dismemberment of Izusa's body but also uttering such shocking words!
Contimon's face, hidden behind the lace, revealed a wanton and maniacal smile. Ignoring the accusations around her, she walked straight toward the funeral pyre.

Soon, she stood on a high place where everyone could see her, and gently pointed her finger at Judge Reina.

Before Judge Reina could figure out what was going on, he suddenly vomited a large amount of black blood, the blood column shooting up more than half a meter high, frightening the people around him into retreating.

Song Qiming, who was standing to the side, was also stunned—how could Reina, who was perfectly fine just now, suddenly spit out black blood?

And this black blood...

Every time Lingling completed a bounty, she would give some items to Song Qiming. Among them was the special black scurvy toxin that appeared on Chongming Island, which Song Qiming had also studied. Now, smelling the familiar scent of Reina's black blood, he froze completely!

Isn't this terrible toxin the patent of the Black Vatican? And Fang Shaoli, the blue-robed deacon who used this poison, is Salang's student!
"Rainer, do everything you can to protect your heart! Once the toxin reaches your heart, you will surely die!!" Song Qiming hurriedly shouted to Judge Rainer beside him.

Reina was still vomiting black blood, his right hand gripping Song Qiming tightly, pointing at the woman in the sun hat, wanting to say something, but unable to utter a single word… (End of Chapter)
