Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 303 The Trial Turmoil, the Void Current Rampages in Venice
The radiance of the Star Array enveloped these ancient Titans.

Standing at the very front of all the phantoms was a being with the most refined form and the most terrifying aura!

His body was formed from interwoven purple lightning, creating a blurry outline of a giant.

Lightning surged and exploded wildly across his "body surface".

Besides the golden light that belonged to the Golden Titan, its body also had a hint of purple.

This remnant soul of the Purple-Gold Thunderstorm Titan is clearly more powerful and dominant than the other Titan phantoms.

His "gaze" swept over the massive star array covering the entire tomb.

The array patterns flowed and the starlight shone brightly, containing an order and power that even he found astonishing.

Ultimately, their attention fell on Soraka.

"The power of the stars?"

"This……"

"What do you want us to do?"

"We are now but a lingering echo in the universe, a stubborn resentment! Even if we possess the power to shake the heavens!"

"Unless... you can help us find our lost bodies and truly return to this world!" His voice suddenly rose, filled with uncontrollable fervor and greed. "If you can do that, let alone a single bit of power, I would gladly flatten kingdoms and tear the earth apart for you!"

The other Titan phantoms also let out low growls and howls, expressing the same desire!
Soraka can awaken their remnants of souls, giving these ancient gods a glimmer of hope!
Resurrecting the ancient Titans is no easy task, much less a trivial matter.

The difficulty of resurrecting an ordinary human, or even a powerful mage, is vastly different from that of resurrecting a Titan once known as an "Old God"!

The Titan's body itself contains world-destroying power.

The effort and cost required to find and rebuild such a body are far greater than those required to resurrect ordinary people!

Moreover, these remnant souls represent different Titan clans—those who control thunder, those who ride the blazing sun, those who dominate ice, those who devour darkness… their powers vary.

To ensure absolute success, Soraka also needs the assistance of formations.

Meanwhile, in Venice, thousands of miles away.

The treasure hunt at the World National Palace Competition has come to an end.

Qin Xiaonan, Lan Xi, Mu Ningxue, and Mu Nujiao ranked among the top in points thanks to their strength and the treasures they obtained through robbery.

After the secret realm was removed, the students of the National Academy also saw three cracks in the sky.

"Oh my god... what are those big eyes in the sky?"

"Could it be a demon emperor?"

What exactly happened these past few days?

The students engaged in a heated discussion, while simultaneously feeling a sense of fear and coldness as they looked down upon the Eye of the Void.

However, the National Team players whose bodies were infested with "Void Worms" were in a completely different state at this moment.

Instead of feeling fear, they felt a strange excitement and restlessness!
The void energy emanating from the cracks in the sky stimulated the parasites within their bodies!

Power surged forth, and a thrill that transcended the mundane assaulted their reason!
Lu Yilin stood at the front of the crowd, and the Void Worm he fused with was most active under the stimulation of the crack!
He lowered his head, his body trembling slightly, not from fear, but from the surging, violent power within him!
His eyes flashed with a wild purple light as he recalled the thrill of easily crushing his opponents in the secret realm.

at this time!

"Silence!" The chief referee of the competition slammed his hand on the table, his voice carrying throughout the entire arena through magic!

Behind him, several powerful high-level referees and mages maintaining order had quietly dispersed, their cold gazes locking onto the contestants in the crowd whose auras were obviously abnormal and whose bodies were faintly shrouded in purple light!

"After joint ruling by the competition organizing committee and the Holy City Emergency Liaison Office!" "During the Treasure Hunt, some contestants possessed powers that did not belong to them, resulting in uncontrollable mutations."

"According to the Holy City's highest directive: Void forces have been confirmed as humanity's mortal enemy!"

"Its origin lies in the Queen of Bervis's conflict with the Holy City, the Void Terror devouring the guardian golden dragon; the Void Eye Vel'Koz overlooks the continent, bringing endless panic! Such power is evil, corrupting, and uncontrollable!"

"All players who have been confirmed or suspected of using, and demonstrated being deeply affected by, the power of the 'Void Worm' parasite during the competition, are hereby suspended—"

He took a deep breath, his voice resolute:
"Detain him/her! Seize him/her for further investigation!"

"what?!"

"No! Why are you detaining us?!"

"We are not out of control!"

"Aren't there people in your Holy City who have also fused with such power?"

These students were unaware of what was happening in the outside world, nor of the extent of the trouble and distress the void creatures had caused to the Holy City.

However, at that moment, something unexpected happened, and Lu Yilin was the first to let out a roar!
The Void Worm inside him instantly went berserk!
Dark purple living biological tissue gushed out uncontrollably, rapidly coagulating and hardening on his body surface!
The jagged bone spurs pierced his clothes, protruding menacingly from his shoulder and elbow joints!

His eyes turned completely deep purple, the pupils splitting like the compound eyes of an insect, filled with madness and violence!
"Do it!" the chief referee shouted sternly!

The judges, who were already prepared, acted instantly!
Heavy earthen and stone cages, blazing fire cages... enveloped Lu Yilin and several other contestants who were also beginning to show obvious signs of mutation from all directions!

"Roar—!!" Lu Yilin let out a roar that was not human, and his arm covered with purple bone armor swung violently!
A void blade that tore through space slashed out fiercely, shattering the earthen prison that was the first to attack!

Then, an ominous purple light was seen cast down from the crack in the sky, enveloping the entire Venice stadium!

These trainees have become even stronger.

"Uhhhhh-!"

"Power...more!"

“Give me more!”

Illuminated by the purple light, these people were as if injected with a violent catalyst!
The purple carapace covering their bodies instantly became even thicker and more ferocious!
Lu Yilin let out a beast-like roar, his compound eyes bursting with purple light. The power of the void blade he casually swung surged, severely injuring several referee mages who were surrounding him.
"Pfft! Crack!"

It's not just Nationalist government students!
There were also some mages in the audience, and a void-like change began to occur.

"Roar--!"

"Hiss-!"

The situation is completely out of control!

From a single point to a broader area, it instantly transformed into a raging inferno that swept across the entire arena!
"Damn it!" The chief referee's eyes widened in fury as he stared at the scene before him.

"All law enforcement officers, listen to my command! Indiscriminate suppression! These... these are no longer human! They are puppets corrupted by the void!"

"Kill! Leave no one alive!!"

He was following the orders of the Holy City, so he ordered the extermination of the Void Worms at this moment!
However, those who could "buy" Void Worms to improve their strength were all people of "status".

They only spent a lot of money to buy it after learning that the Holy City was secretly using this power, but they never expected to become the Holy City's adversary!
Some powerful family elders said, "Don't kill them, just keep them trapped!"

The scene became increasingly chaotic.
