Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 178 Sea Emperor's Tsunami and the Pseudo-Cataclysmic Tsunami, Spatial Compass - Death Axis!
Even with the help of a series of precious summoning items provided by Lu Ran, the probability of Mu Ningxue successfully contracting the Flying River Snow Beast is still very low.

After all, Mu Ningxue's summoning ability had only been awakened less than two months ago, and her cultivation level was only at the initial stage.

Moreover, summoning contracts also emphasize mental strength. Mu Ningxue's mental strength was enhanced after breaking through to a higher level, but it was still extremely difficult for her to lead a summoning contract of a higher level.

Moreover, there's the possibility of the Flying River Snow Beast unleashing its full power. Once it activates its Ice Soul, it will be at the Grand Commander level in the icy plains.

Let alone a novice summoning mage, even a fully prepared high-level summoning mage cannot guarantee a 100% success rate in forming a contract.

Thinking of all this, Lu Ran said to Mu Ningxue:

“Ning Xue, the Flying River Snow Beast is quite powerful and possesses the ‘Ice Soul’ that amplifies its combat strength. Even among the commander-level beasts, it is an outstanding one and is very suitable for you.”

"However, with your current level of summoning cultivation, it will still be very difficult to successfully form a contract with it."

"For now, keep an eye on the location of this Flying River Snow Beast. Once your summoning skills have improved further and you've broken through to the intermediate level, you can consider a summoning contract with my assistance!"

Lu Ran's words deeply moved Mu Ningxue.

She hadn't expected the Flying River Beast to be so powerful.

Mu Ningxue listened to Lu Ran's words and nodded solemnly, taking them very seriously.

“Okay, I won’t act without your permission,” Mu Ningxue said seriously and earnestly.

Suddenly, Lu Ran chuckled: "No need to be so serious. Anyone who didn't know better would think we were in a superior-subordinate relationship."

As he spoke, Lu Ran patted Mu Ningxue's head.

Mu Ningxue blushed and became shy instantly.

Lu Ran felt that the timing was perfect. Since they were already at the hotel, it wouldn't be right if nothing happened, would it?
Although Mu Ningxue had no experience, she knew what men and women should do when they were alone together in a hotel.

However, the ancient capital is now fraught with danger, and even though she was willing, she felt somewhat uneasy.
They were terrified that the undead would launch an attack the moment things were in progress!
Upon realizing this through mind reading, Lu Ran raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but think to himself:
"Ning Xue, don't make a promise you can't keep!"

Lu Ran had no choice but to refrain from doing "that" with Mu Ningxue for the time being, because he was also afraid of unexpected situations.

However, it's fine as long as we don't go to the last step.

As for the others, Mu Ningxue should at least take care of them, right?

Thinking this, Lu Ran glanced at Mu Ningxue's snow-white bosom, which seemed to be bursting out of her chest.
Outside the hotel, with the crucial intelligence contributed by Lu Ran, the situation in the ancient capital became increasingly clear.

Firstly, the resettlement and evacuation of the outer city residents proceeded very smoothly, thanks to the intervention of highly respected councilors such as Zhu Meng and Du Xiao, as well as the Hunter King.

No one dared to disagree, and of course, those who did dare to disagree at this critical moment were dealt with privately.

Secondly, many of the Black Vatican's fugitives, both in grey and black robes, were arrested!
According to their testimonies, the few remaining men in blue either escaped or were killed by Lu Ran long ago!
Finally, there is Wu Ku, the great figure of the Black Church and the Rain Master!
This time, even with Han Ji mobilizing manpower, activating a city-wide alert, and sending out super-level mage guards to search, he actually found a clue!
Wu Ku, a seemingly ordinary worshipper dressed in monk's robes, exuded no trace of magical energy or magic.

But the fact that such a person would appear in the ancient capital at this time is itself a problem!
After discovering this problematic individual, Han Ji personally visited Lu Ran to inquire about relevant clues.

Lu Ran hadn't previously provided any details about Wu Ku, making it difficult for Han Ji to discern anything. However, through these hints, Han Ji had learned something: even if this monk wasn't a rainmaker, he was certainly no good!
Han Ji remained vigilant and immediately asked Lu Huan, the chief of the Imperial Guards, to suppress the attack.

Accompanying Lu Huan was a super-level space mage named Yaoting!
This military commander, Yaoting, had set up a spatial barrier around the area in advance.

Meanwhile, the Bell Tower Magic Association and the Drum Tower Hunter Alliance each dispatched a super-level mage to besiege Wu Ku.

Four formidable high-level mages joined forces.

They were genuinely afraid that the rain-making master Wu Ku would run away!
Invited by Han Ji, Lu Ran originally intended to join forces to suppress Wu Ku, but seeing such a formidable lineup, he abandoned the idea.

After all, he is only a high-level student on the surface, and he is still a student who can participate in the World University Competition.

If one were to participate in the battle to eliminate those affected by the water system disaster in public, it would likely make many high-ranking officials in the country wary!
The battle in which four super-level beings surrounded and besieged Wu Ku allowed Lu Ran to witness a great deal.

First and foremost is Lu Huan's water-based super-level magic, Sea Emperor's Water Roar!
Suddenly, deep blue waves rolled up between the sky, and white waves rolled in the sky.

It tumbled in the sky, like dozens of waterfalls rushing down at once!

Like a sea surging between the sky and the earth, its turbulence and magnificence are breathtaking.

Wu Ku was discovered on a hill a few kilometers away from the ancient capital.

The super-level magic released by Lu Huan made many mages on the outer city wall tremble!

Even from several kilometers away, the Sea Emperor's roar still produced a sound that could be heard throughout the entire outer city.

Fortunately, the battle took place outside the outer city; otherwise, several streets would have been reduced to ruins.

Lu Ran was secretly alarmed and couldn't help but compare the 'pseudo-Cataclysmic Tsunami' he had previously released using the power of the Styx River with Lu Huan's Sea Emperor Tsunami!

The conclusion is...

This Sea Emperor's Tsunami is far superior to his pseudo-Cataclysmic Tsunami in both power and aggression!

Lu Ran himself only had a high-level cultivation, and the cataclysmic water roar he released by relying on the power of the Styx River was not a true super-level magic!
The only thing that can surpass the sea god's roar is the length and depth that the Styx relies on!
Even a monarch-level demon, once swallowed by the River Styx, cannot escape Lu Ran's grasp.

Wu Ku was, after all, a water-type calamity, and it would be quite difficult to kill him with super-level water-type magic.

But the other high-level mages are not to be trifled with either.

Besides the Sea Emperor's Tsunami, another military commander, Yaoting, also unleashed a super-level spatial magic, the Spatial Compass - Death Axis!
In the sky, a deep silver light shimmered, capable of filling the heavens.

All the silver light and silver threads intertwined, forming a silver compass hanging between heaven and earth, directly facing Wu Ku's eyebrows and chest.

"Boom!!!"

After Jun Si Yaoting's spatial teleportation, it was clearly visible that a black axis passed through the water shield barrier erected by Wu Ku and tore Wu Ku's body in two!
The Black Vatican's leader, the Rain Master Wu Ku, is dead!
