Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 682 Saintly: Come out, Kang Jinlong!

"Are you a monster, kid?! How could a mage who's not even twenty years old possibly master so many kinds of magic?!"

Joseph watched as the purplish-black magic that had been burning like flames on Seiya's hands was dispelled, and even his previously injured skin was completely healed in a short time. His composure was instantly shaken.

First came the dragon-slaying magic, then elemental magic such as light and ice magic.

Then there are physical magic spells that enhance physical abilities and speed, used to defend against attacks, similar to bone armor created by costume-changing magic.

Now, they've finally given him purification and healing magic.

Joseph has seen his fair share of so-called magical geniuses in all his years in the magical world.

Joseph was impressed that Seiya could be nominated as one of the "Ten Wizard Saints" at such a young age and master several other types of magic, but he wasn't particularly surprised.

But Seiya used at least five or six kinds of magic, and his mastery of each kind was at a top level, which is quite outrageous.

Everyone has limited energy, especially when it comes to studying magic, which is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

"Is this all the Ten Wizard Saints are going to be surprised?"
Didn't you say before that you wanted me to see the difference between a 'candidate' and the actual Ten Wizard Saints?

It seems the gap is indeed quite significant now. It appears the Magic Council made a mistake in selecting the "Ten Wizard Saints," letting one slip through the net.

Faced with Seiya's repeated mockery, Joseph was utterly enraged.

"Dark Magic: Soul Devouring—!"

A purplish-black magical power continuously emanated from Joseph, and soon formed two giant black phantoms, each several meters tall, in front of him.

These two enormous black phantoms are enhanced versions of the ghostly soldiers that Joseph previously summoned.

Whether attacking or being attacked, it has the effect of absorbing the opponent's magic power and soul.

And even if it is damaged, it can continuously regenerate and recover.

Seiya is skilled at using physical magic to enhance himself before launching melee attacks. He has now created these two giant ghosts to act as his guards.

Once he is restrained by these two giant ghosts, even if Seiya destroys the ghosts, his own magic power and soul will be devoured.

After this happens several times, the situation will inevitably reverse.

"Kid, let me tell you, talent and strength alone are not enough for a mage."

Even if you possess a vast amount of magic, your total magical power is limited, and the difference in combat experience between us is simply incomparable.

Two enormous, purplish-black ghosts, like two guardian deities, protected Joseph from the front and back.

Joseph then extended his hand and activated a magic circle. In the next second, various ranged dark magic spells shot out from the magic circle and flew towards Seiya's location.

"Mysterious Guardian—!"

Seiya, with one hand extended forward, was immediately enveloped in a spherical green protective shield.

Joseph's dark magic struck it, but it only caused ripples on the surface of calm water.

Joseph was astonished to see Seiya use a new spell.

However, Joseph was not too concerned that his magic was resisted by Seiya.

After all, he had already achieved his goal, and now he wanted to force Seiya into a protracted battle. Most of his dark magic had the effect of devouring the opponent's magic power and life force, so as long as Seiya didn't get close to him, he would be invincible.

In fact, given the shifting balance of power, the only one who might ultimately win is Joseph Paula.

What good is knowing a lot of magic? The key is to specialize in one type of magic and master it to the extreme. Right now, they're just competing to see who can expend the most magical power.

As one of the strongest "Ten Wizards" on the entire continent, how could Joseph be inferior to a brat who is not even twenty years old?
"You think you've got the victory in the bag just because you summoned two little black figures?"

That's why I said that as one of the "Ten Wizard Saints," your character and magic are both too petty; you're only good at using small tricks.

A huge gap in combat experience? I don't deny that, but it seems you've got your perspective wrong.

Summoning magic and all that, as if nobody else can't do it. Grow up and see for yourself how a true guardian beast really is!

"Summoning Shikigami: Xuanwu Seven Mansions - Ox-Golden Ox!"

"Summoning Shikigami: White Tiger's Seven Constellations - Lou Jingou!"

"Summoning Shikigami: Vermilion Bird's Seven Mansions - Oni-Golden Sheep!"

"Summoning Shikigami: Azure Dragon's Seven Constellations - Kang Jinlong!"

Four magic circles were set up in a row, arranged according to the four cardinal directions, in front of, behind, to the left and right of Seiya.

"Moo!"

The first to appear was a huge golden bull with two horns pointing forward, its hoofbeats like thunder, its whole body gleaming with golden light.

"howl!"

Next to appear was a giant divine dog with golden fur all over its body, resembling a fierce tiger.

"Bah!"

After the appearance of the ox and the dog, a goat exuding ghostly energy also bleated and slowly walked out of the magic circle.

Joseph wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but when the giant goat appeared, he always felt that the goat was looking at him and the two giant ghosts he had summoned as if they were looking at food.

"Roar------!"

Finally, when the most oppressive and largest dragon, Kang Jinlong, flew out of the magic circle and roared as it soared into the sky, Joseph was completely stunned!
That's a dragon!

In a world with magic as its backdrop, dragons, with their legendary status, naturally exist!
Furthermore, in the magical world of Aslant, dragons are powerful beings that stand at the top of the food chain!
However, because Lucy's mother, Leila, opened the Gate of Eclipse, on July 7th, X777, all the dragons in this world disappeared from this world.

However, Seiya has now summoned a real dragon in front of Joseph!
As fellow constellation shikigami, Niu Jin Niu, Lou Jin Gou, and Gui Jin Yang are not much weaker in aura and strength than Kang Jin Long.

However, it must be said that Kang Jinlong's presence in this world is clearly much stronger.

"Astral magic? No, the Zodiac doesn't have these things at all, what kind of magic is this?!"

When Joseph saw Niu Jinniu, Lou Jingou, Gui Jinyang, and Kang Jinlong summoned by Seiya, his already ugly face became even more distorted with surprise!
He had no idea what the four magical creatures that Seiya had summoned were.

But one thing he was very clear about was that the two giant ghosts he had summoned were no match for them.

No, let alone two against four, just the giant dragon with its dazzling golden scales alone made Joseph feel that even two giant ghosts against one had no chance of winning!
