Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 213 The Sea Spirit Town's Forbidden Curse Submerges Hokkaido, and the Cherry Blossom Country Falls into Panic
Crimson flames scorched and eroded the blue curtain, while runes flowed across its surface. The boundless power of the sea was mobilized, consumed, and resisted by this world-burning flame.

"Click... click..."

A heartbreaking sound of shattering rang out!

It wasn't the blue screen that shattered, but rather the crimson river, like a fragile ice crystal hitting a reef, that began to crumble and dissipate inch by inch!
Ultimately, it failed to break through the ocean's fundamental defenses, which were reinforced by the emperor's will!

Abe Kiyogen's withered face instantly lost all color, and the burning light in his eyes suddenly dimmed!

The forbidden spell he unleashed with all his might, burning his very essence, was actually… blocked?!

But this is far from the end!

Just as the crimson color completely collapsed, the light at the top of the Sea Spirit Pillar suddenly changed from azure to a deeper, more dangerous crystalline blue!
A destructive energy instantly coalesced!
"call out--!!!"

It shot out from the top of the Sea Spirit Pillar! Its target was none other than Abe Kiyogen, whose aura had instantly weakened due to the release of a forbidden spell on a distant island!
quick! too fast!
Qingyuan's pupils contracted sharply! His fighting instincts made him almost subconsciously burn the last of his remaining life force, his body turning into a blurry afterimage as he desperately dodged to the side!

"boom!!!"

The "isolated island" where he had stood, along with the seawater and rocky foundation dozens of meters below, was silently pierced and annihilated by that crystal blue beam of light!
It left behind a huge hole with smooth, mirror-like edges and an unfathomable depth!

Qingyuan's figure appeared staggering several hundred meters away, dark red blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, his breathing extremely disordered.

However, before he could catch his breath, a terrifying pressure had completely locked onto him from all directions!
Centered on the Sea Spirit Pillar, the seawater within a radius of several kilometers surged and converged wildly. Under the command of the Emperor's will, it was like millions of well-trained soldiers, instantly condensing, piling up, and compressing!
The seawater was forcibly shaped into a jagged, eerie, and chillingly blue sea peak!
The mountain was so large that it blocked out the sky and the shadow it cast completely swallowed Qingyuan’s tiny figure!

This is no longer water, but a seal of suppression that embodies the weight of the ocean and the wrath of an emperor!

"Suppress!" It was like a decree from the abyss.

The colossal sea peak, with an unparalleled gravity as if crushing a continental shelf, crashed down with a deafening roar!

"puff--!"

The last vestige of his protective aura shattered like paper! Qingyuan only had time to let out a short groan before his withered body was slammed into the depths of the seabed below, which had already turned into a vast ocean, by the colossal peak formed from the seawater!

A bottomless vortex formed instantly, swallowing everything.

This hidden, forbidden spell from the land of cherry blossoms vanished completely into the depths of the cold, dark, and heavy sea.

With Qingyuan's fall, the light of the Sea Spirit Pillar seemed to shine even brighter.

There are no more obstacles; go all out!
Rumble——! ! !
The boundless seawater, which had been accumulated to its limit and forcibly gathered by the Sea Spirit Pillar, finally lost its last restraint.

It transformed into a massive, ring-shaped wave thousands of meters high, connecting the sky and the sea. Centered on the Sea Spirit Pillar, it crashed down in all directions with the intent to destroy and obliterate everything!

The last remaining ruins were reduced to dust by the giant waves.

The desperate cries were completely drowned out by the sound of the waves.

The once prosperous Hokkaido was completely and mercilessly swallowed up by the ultimate tidal wave driven by the emperor's will.

As far as the eye could see, all that remained was an endless, lifeless, and ever-rising ocean.

Only the Sea Spirit Pillar, standing above the "sea level," emitted a faint, cold blue light.

All life on the island was swallowed by the sea, and human mages were forced to fight sea monsters in the ocean. Only a fraction of the survivors remained. Ten hours later.

It took less than ten hours from the first giant wave crashing onto the shore to the entire island being completely submerged in the ocean!

This incredible speed and devastating power struck like a heavy hammer, slamming into the hearts of all the survivors on the other three islands of the Sakura Kingdom—Kyushu, Shikoku, and Honshu!

The news spread instantly, not through cold written reports, but through fragmented yet soul-wrenching images and sounds transmitted from Hokkaido in the final moments:

The silver-winged queen ant tore through space and unleashed a cataclysmic waterfall;
To casually erase the imperial might of humanity's strongest being;

The Sea Spirit Pillar that swallows the ocean and lifts up the land;
And... the suffocating, deathly silence that engulfed everything before the final signal was cut off.

Panic spread like wildfire across the three islands, erupting like a plague!
Kyushu-Fukuoka Temporary Command Post:
This island, the closest to Hokkaido, is now like a frightened bird.

"Report! Nagasaki Coastal Observatory... has lost contact! Last information indicated... abnormal seawater reversal!"

"Sasebo Naval Base! The outer defenses of the naval base have been... torn open by a vortex that appeared out of nowhere! There's... there's a monarch-level energy reaction approaching!"

"Residents of Fukuoka City are panicking and rushing to the inland highlands! Traffic is completely paralyzed!"

The generals' faces were ashen, and their foreheads were covered in cold sweat.

The shadow of Hokkaido sinking for ten hours loomed over Kyushu like a cold noose.

Their proud coastal defense system appears so pale and powerless in the face of Imperial-class space projection and ocean manipulation.

"Quickly! Request aid from the state! Request all available forbidden spellcasters, top-tier cultivators... no, request international support! Hurry!" An elderly general with gray hair almost roared as he gave the order, his voice filled with unprecedented fear and helplessness.

Honshu Island - Tokyo, the underground fortress of the Prime Minister's official residence:

The atmosphere here was as oppressive as solidified lead.

“Hokkaido…along with…along with Lord Abe Kiyogen…all…all gone…” The intelligence officer’s voice was dry and hoarse, trembling uncontrollably.

The prime minister slumped in his chair, looking as if he had aged twenty years in an instant, his fingers digging deep into his gray hair.

Ten hours! Just ten hours! A huge island, equivalent to a quarter of their country's territory and equipped with a complete defense system, was completely "submerged" right under their noses!
This is not a war at all; it's a dimensional attack.

“Silver-winged Ant Queen… Space Emperor… Sea-Suppressing Spirit Beast Emperor… Sea Spirit Pillar…” The Minister of Defense looked at the solitary blue pillar standing in the vast ocean on the screen, as if looking at an invitation from hell.

"Where will our next target be...? Kyushu? Shikoku? Or... directly our own homeland?!"

"Report!" A communications officer practically burst through the door.

"Yokohama Port...the sea level in the port area...is...is dropping abnormally! It's not low tide! It's...it's like it's being sucked away by something! The direction...the direction is pointing...due north!"

"Due north?" A high-level mage suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with extreme horror.

"That...that place is...deep in Tokyo Bay?!"
