Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 139 allowed the Three-Eyed Underworld General to refine it.
The raging sea surges and the waters flow backward.

"Strengthen the barrier immediately!" Wangyue Mingjian shouted, realizing that the power of the magic Jiang Yuan used had exceeded the barrier's limit.

Fujikata Nobuko and every single high-level mage around her came to help strengthen the barrier, otherwise the energy would leak out.

"Jiang Yuan, you've won! Quickly put away your magic, Qian Xun can't withstand it!" Wang Yuemingjian said anxiously.

Jiang Yuan glanced at him but didn't say anything.

At this moment, Mochizuki Chika is like a small boat in a storm, inconspicuous, and even a single wave could easily destroy her!
She felt an immense power lift her high into the air, and then the protective magic around her was crushed one by one.

Finally, at the innermost layer, she could no longer hold on, and the bellflower barrier shattered into countless fragments that scattered into the raging sea.

In the last second before he lost consciousness, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Yuan's emotionless eyes out of the corner of his eye, and his heart skipped a beat.

This was the first time she had ever seen such a look in someone's eyes; the last time she had seen it was during a naval battle.

A very powerful deep-sea monster, with the same cold, indifferent gaze.

Under the impact of the raging waves, Mochizuki Chika completely lost consciousness.

The dueling platform, supposedly indestructible and made of gray crystal, shattered into pieces under the impact of the raging sea.

The raging sea subsided, and the Japanese swarmed in.

"Quickly, healer, come here!" Mochizuki Meiken hurriedly called out, stepping forward to check on Mochizuki Chika's injuries.

Fortunately, Jiang Yuan used the area-of-effect spell "Raging Sea Devouring the Sky," so the energy wasn't concentrated in one point for the burst.

In addition, Mochizuki Chika really used all her skills, and even broke all those expensive magical tools.

So he wasn't fatally injured. But he'll definitely need to rest for a while.

After checking and finding that Qianxun was not seriously injured, Wangyue Mingjian breathed a sigh of relief and said to Jiang Yuan, "Thank you for showing mercy. Qianxun just fainted."

Jiang Yuan remained silent, glancing at the Japanese monks who had surrounded him.

"How could you hit her so hard? Miss Chika has fainted!" a student from the Japanese National Pavilion said angrily.

"You Chinese are so lacking in manners! To embarrass Miss Chika on our own Japanese soil is a great disgrace!"

"."

They all blamed Jiang Yuan, forgetting that they had just mocked him for not being able to last more than a few minutes.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Mo Fan and his group came to help immediately.

"So you start barking like a dog now that you've lost?" Mo Fan said, taking the lead.

"You lost, don't you dare admit it? Or are you trying to cheat and cause us trouble again?" Jiang Shaoxu said.

"If you're not as skilled as others, you have to accept it. Isn't that right?" Jiang Yuan spoke, releasing an invisible pressure.

Only then did they remember the terrifying strength Jiang Yuan had just displayed, and they all cowered like turtles, not daring to utter another word of criticism.

In the end, it was Wangyue Mingjian who stepped forward, and the atmosphere eased.

Japan's National Hall suffered a complete defeat. Apart from Okamoto Takashi, who was the first to perform and had a slightly memorable performance, everyone else was defeated in one move.

Shuangshou Pavilion has never had such a record before. Even the previous National Team champions could not have made them lose so badly.

The facts are right in front of them; they have no choice but to accept them.

Jiang Yuan's team's first match at the National Stadium ended very successfully.

We'll rest for the night. At daybreak, we'll head straight to Tokyo.

...............

That night.

While Jiang Yuan and the others were resting in their respective rooms.

There was quite a commotion at the Dongshou Pavilion, which is located across the lake.

Jiang Yuan rolled over, not paying any attention.

Mo Fan was the only one who liked to join in the fun; he had no interest in making a trip to the East Guard Pavilion.

Jiang Yuan planned to close his eyes and rest for a while before continuing his meditation.

Since he arrived in the ancient capital, sleeping has become optional; he could either stay awake forever or sleep indefinitely.

"Your Majesty, look what I've found!" A slightly excited voice rang out in the darkness, followed by a tall and sexy figure emerging in the moonlight.

All that could be seen was a bead in Jiuyou's hand, its luster murky and exuding an evil aura.

Jiang Yuan sat up, looked at the bead, and had some guesses in his mind. He asked, "Where did you get this bead from?"

"It's right across from there, in that place called Dongshouge. I saw that the magic array inside looked a bit like the Purifying Spirit Array in my tomb, so I went inside and unexpectedly found this treasure." Jiuyouhou held up the bead in the moonlight.

It's definitely the Condensed Evil Pearl.

After a brief display, Jiuyou handed it over to Jiang Yuan.

As Jiang Yuan played with the beads, he suddenly felt a very sinister temptation rising from within him.

However, while this bit of evil might tempt others, it couldn't tempt Jiang Yuan. He merely had a thought, and the evil shrank back into the bead, turning it into an ordinary bead.

Jiang Yuan smiled and casually asked Jiu Youhou, "What is this Purifying Spirit Array you mentioned?"

"The Purification Array is a commonly used array diagram in tombs of my time. It can allow the tomb owner to maintain their sanity after becoming a dead spirit, and it can purify and gather the death energy around them that carries evil thoughts, so as to nourish the body of the tomb owner's spirit."

"However, this array diagram was lost during the Calamity of the Dead hundreds of years ago, and no one in the world can set up the Purifying Spirit Array again," said the Nine Nether Queen.

"What about the one at Dongshou Pavilion?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"That's a degraded version of the Purification Array, which absorbs the evil energy of those around it. The final product is this bead in your hand," Jiuyouhou replied.

"So, why do you say this bead is a good thing?" Jiang Yuan placed the Condensed Evil Bead on the table and looked at Jiu You.

Queen Jiuyou laughed and said, "Your Majesty, you have not yet fully received the memories in the armor. Once you have received them, you will know that there was a dark king in the dark plane called the Evil Saint King. He has long been dead, but his position remains suspended there, and no one can take it."

"Although this bead is weak, it has the potential to become an Evil Saint King. Even if it cannot become an Evil Saint King, it can still be a powerful aid to Your Majesty on your path to becoming the only Underworld King!"

Jiang Yuan understood what Jiu You meant: to nurture the red demon within the Ninghua Evil Pearl and see if it could advance to the level of Evil Saint King.

If successful, they will have an emperor-level helper.

Even if it fails, it can still become a monarch-level creature.

Jiang Yuan shook his head at this: "After purifying the evil within, we'll have the Third Eye of the Three-Eyed Nether General refine it. This will also help upgrade the Three-Eyed Nether General's mental power, as it's been holding it back from becoming a monarch."

Instead of training a Red Demon, it's better to use it to train your own Three-Eyed Nether General, who has accompanied you from the initial stage all the way to the advanced stage.

There's nothing we can do; people are just nostalgic.
