Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 165 The Legend of the Star Goddess, The Journey to Kunlun
While crossing the Hindu Kush Mountains, Soraka encountered a blizzard.

In the snowstorm, she discovered a caravan besieged by a Yeti.

Those enormous, pure white creatures were toying with the terrified travelers.

Soraka waved her hand, conjuring a star and moon headdress, and tossed it into the air.

The headdress transformed into a bright moon, and its gentle light calmed the ferocious Yetis. Like children, they curiously touched the halo, and eventually, they even took the initiative to clear a safe passage for the caravan.

The caravan leader wanted to present her with precious gems, but Soraka ignored him and rode away on a journey through the stars.

Soraka traveled across the Arabian Peninsula, the Iranian Plateau, and even the Indian subcontinent...

They then entered Chinese territory and set foot on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

When she reached the Qiangtang Grassland at an altitude of 4500 meters, it was the Tibetan Ghost Month, and the setting sun on the horizon was like blood.

The distant howls of wolves pierced the thin air, echoing across the vast wilderness. The sound was unlike that of ordinary wolves; it carried a frenzied rhythm, rising and falling like a chorus of death.

In a river valley a hundred miles away, a group of mages are in an unprecedented predicament.

Tens of thousands of wolves surrounded the tribe, their eyes bloodshot like the moon, and the saliva dripping from their fangs corroded the grass.

Just as the alpha wolf was about to issue the order for a general attack, a silvery-white light descended from the sky.

A dazzling light burst forth from Soraka's hand, like a falling galaxy.

The wolves howled in pain, and the bloodshot in their eyes gradually faded.

She walked on starlight, each step leaving shimmering starlight on the grass, and the eroded meadow was revitalized.

"Scatter." Her voice was soft, yet it made the fiercest alpha wolf tremble on the ground.

As the last rays of starlight swept across the wolf pack, the madness in the wolves' eyes vanished completely, and they whimpered as they scattered and fled.

……

Throughout the journey, Soraka acted entirely on a whim.

She will bestow starlight when life is in turmoil, and she will also stand by and watch with indifference when the two sides are evenly matched.

Like the stars in the night sky, they illuminate all living beings while maintaining a certain distance.

But what she didn't know was that along her journey, countless legends about the "Goddess of the Stars" had been left behind...

However, now that she was here, she definitely had to go and see the Kunlun Empire.

Solaka officially stepped into the territory of the Kunlun Mountains from the snow-capped peaks on the eastern side of the Pamir Plateau.

This is no ordinary place, but an ancient kingdom inhabited by demons.

Amidst the mountains, a demonic aura soared to the sky, and occasionally, crimson lightning would strike, illuminating the ferocious beast shadows on the cliffs.

She walked on starlight, surrounded by a faint silver glow, which drove back the low-level demons that tried to approach.

Demons roam the Kunlun Mountains.

Along the way, she saw three giant pythons coiled on the cliff, their eyes bloodshot and their scales gleaming with a metallic cold light, each breath carrying a deadly black mist; in the mountain stream, a group of spider demons with human faces were weaving webs, their silk not ordinary spider silk, but a web of resentment that could suck out souls; further away, a black bear demon the size of a small mountain was tearing apart the carcass of a fierce tiger demon, its blood staining the entire stream red.

Demons fought each other, the strong preying on the weak, and the air was filled with the stench of blood and decay.

Suddenly, a deafening roar came from ahead, and the earth trembled slightly.

As far as Soraka could see, two demonic forces were locked in a standoff—

On one side were the volcanic demons led by the Crimson Flame Demon Ape, their bodies engulfed in inextinguishable flames, their fangs menacing, and their wielding giant axes forged from lava; on the other side were the snow mountain undead of the Frost Corpse Demons, their bodies rotting yet covered in solid ice, their eye sockets flickering with eerie blue ghostly fire, wielding bone blades, exuding a chilling aura of death.

Between the two forces, magic clashed, and ice and fire intertwined.

"This territory belongs to our Volcanic Demon Clan! Go back to your ice caves!" The Crimson Flame Demon Ape roared, its sound waves shattering the rocks. "Hehehe... In the Kunlun Mountains, the strong are respected. Today, we will turn you into ice sculptures!" The Frost Corpse Demon chuckled sinisterly, and with a wave of its hand, countless sharp ice spikes condensed on the ground.

The war is about to start.

Soraka stood atop the starlight, silently watching the battle between the two tribes; she had no intention of interfering in the struggle between the demons.

However, at that moment, a pressure far more terrifying than any of the demons before suddenly descended!

The magic of the entire mountain range converged wildly, and the dark clouds in the sky swirled, forming a huge vortex.

"boom--!"

A snow-white figure pierced through the void and slowly descended.

Her fur was as white as moonlight, and nine fox tails stretched out behind her, each hair flowing with an eerie light.

Her face was exquisitely beautiful, yet it possessed an unyielding majesty. Her golden vertical pupils were as deep as an abyss, seemingly able to see through all the illusions of the world. She walked barefoot through the air, and demonic lotuses bloomed beneath her feet, each step causing the magic of heaven and earth to tremble.

He was none other than the ruler and emperor of the Kunlun Demon Kingdom.

In an instant, the chilling atmosphere between heaven and earth suddenly froze.

The roar of the Crimson Flame Demon Ape abruptly ceased, the burning giant axe hovered in mid-air, and the magma solidified into dark red crystals.

The ghostly blue flames of the Frost Ghoul flickered slightly, and the frost on the ice blades stopped spreading.

Both demon races held their breath, trembling as they looked up at the sky.

The Kunlun Demon Lord stood in mid-air, her gaze not falling on the demon tribe below, but piercing through the clouds and locking onto the figure shrouded in starlight in the distance.

"You have trespassed into my Kunlun Demon Kingdom. What brings you here?"

Her voice was ethereal yet cold, each word like frost, yet carrying an undeniable authority.

Soraka stood amidst the starlight, her silver hair fluttering, her eyes reflecting the flowing galaxy.

She could clearly sense the vast magical power emanating from the other person, but her expression remained calm, with a slight upturn at the corners of her lips revealing a serene smile.

"I was just passing through and had no ill intentions."

The nine fox tails of the Kunlun Demon Lord swayed gently, seemingly probing Soraka's magic in silence.

After a moment, she whispered, "The Kunlun Demon Kingdom does not welcome outsiders."

Soraka met her gaze, gently shook her head, and starlight flowed from her fingertips, scattering into tiny specks of light.

“I have no interest in your fighting. I’m just… passing by, taking a look around.”

Soraka's statements were difficult for the other side to believe.

"Just passing by?" A mocking smile curved the other's red lips, and the light on the fox tail suddenly intensified.

"The summit of Kunlun is not a place for leisurely strolls."

Then the magic power in the world suddenly boiled!

Nine fox tails surged like snow waves, each hair bursting with dazzling silver light. Vast demonic power transformed into tangible pressure, overwhelming Soraka like a tidal wave.

The void trembled, the clouds shattered, and the demons below were forced to their knees by this force, trembling in fear.

Soraka's gaze narrowed slightly, and starlight swirled around her, transforming into a dazzling barrier.

The moment the demonic power collided with the starlight, a deafening roar erupted, and a dazzling halo spread like ripples, illuminating the entire sky as if it were daytime.

"I told you, I meant no harm."
