Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 385: The Shark Slaughter Continues, "Cold Eyes" Intervenes

As the last trace of mental energy, filled with pain and resentment, of the Mirage Sea Dragon King Ant Queen was completely swallowed up.

The Void swarms that filled the battlefield seemed to have completed a grand sacrificial ritual.

They not only devoured the emperor's flesh and blood and demonic power, but also decomposed, absorbed, and encoded his unique life essence and innate abilities into their own void sequence.

The next moment, something unexpected happened!

The countless Void Worms, now saturated with devouring energy, no longer flew about haphazardly. Instead, as if summoned by some supreme will, they began to frantically converge towards a central point.

They merge, link, and recombine, their shells colliding and producing a dense, teeth-grinding sound.

Under the horrified gaze of the Shark King, in just a few breaths, a huge, twisted monster was born, exuding an aura that was the same as that of the Mirage Sea Dragon King Ant Mother, yet even more bizarre!
This is a newly born Void Queen!

It retains some of the arthropod morphology of the Dragon King Ant, but its carapace has completely turned into a deep purplish-black color, with a halo of ethereal light flowing across it like mirage, and its compound eyes have become countless tiny vortexes of void.

Although the energy pressure it emitted was not as condensed and vast as that of the Mirage Sea Dragon King Ant Mother at its peak, the ever-increasing and uncertain void fluctuations were already approaching the threshold of the Emperor level!

It became yet another powerful war puppet under Malzahar's command.

Malzahar then shifted his focus to the king of the Shark Kingdom.

The pressure came crashing down like a landslide and a tsunami!
The king of the Shark Kingdom, whose heart had been tempered by countless battles, was now chilled to the bone by an unprecedented coldness.

He witnessed firsthand how the Mirage Sea Dragon King Ant Mother, whose strength was comparable to his own, was brutally killed, devoured, and even transformed into his power in such a bizarre way in a short period of time.

All its fighting spirit has collapsed.

The instinct for survival overwhelmed the emperor's dignity.

escape!
We must escape at all costs!

It didn't even dare to turn around; its massive tail churned the water wildly, bursting with unprecedented speed and creating a whirlpool in an attempt to slow Malzahar's pursuit.

This once mighty ocean tyrant now appeared in such a sorry state, fleeing desperately towards his deep-sea lair without looking back.

Malzahar's figure once again transformed into a streak of light, easily avoiding the whirlpool and pursuing his opponent at a speed far exceeding that of his opponent.

His attacks were ruthless and efficient; with each flash, he left shocking wounds on the Shark King's massive body.

The purplish-black void energy eroded its hard scales and devoured its life force.

The Shark King fought back with great difficulty, swinging his claws and stirring up raging waves, but all his defenses seemed pale and powerless in the face of Malzahar's elusive teleportation and fierce attacks.

Its body was severely injured, and its blood stained the surrounding seawater. Its speed slowed down significantly, and the emperor's blood spread through the deep sea like cheap red ink.

Despair, like the deepest sea, enveloped it tightly.

Just as Malzahar was about to unleash a devastating wave, powerful enough to end the life of the fugitive emperor, and was about to shatter the head of the Shark King—

The entire vast Pacific Ocean seemed to freeze instantly!
Time, space, flowing seawater... everything was caught in a strange sense of stagnation.

An indescribable, icy will, surpassing all things, descended from the deep sea in the northwest, like an ancient god awakening!

Immediately following, amidst the horrified gazes of all, a massive tsunami, too enormous to be described in words, appeared.

It didn't rise from below, but rather seemed to fall from the starry sky, silently lying between Malzahar and the Shark King!
This tsunami possessed an eerie, semi-transparent appearance, seemingly frozen within countless icy moonbeams. It emitted no roar, yet exuded an unparalleled majesty capable of freezing the souls of all living beings. Malzahar's annihilation wave, powerful enough to obliterate any opponent, struck this moonbeam tsunami, but it vanished without a trace, like a mud ox entering the sea, merely creating a faint ripple before completely disappearing.

saved!
After the Shark King collapsed from the Moonlit Tsunami, he gasped for breath, his eyes filled with boundless awe and fear of that being.

At the same time, a cold, ancient spiritual thought, seemingly formed from the light of countless moons, resonated clearly deep within the consciousness of every being who had reached a certain level.

It is devoid of any emotion, yet contains an unquestionable ultimate authority:
"You passed."

The simple three words caused the temperature of the entire sea area to plummet, and even the energy in the void seemed to freeze.

Malzahar's pursuit abruptly stopped.

He looked up at the deep darkness to the northwest, and for the first time, a trace of extreme solemnity flashed across his violet eyes.

He clearly sensed that the master of that will was far superior in rank and power to the Shark King beneath his feet or the dead Mirage Dragon King Ant Queen.

That is one of the supreme rulers who truly govern this ocean—the Cold Moon Eye Demon God!

It was finally alerted and intervened itself.

Continuing the pursuit is pointless and could even trigger a full-blown conflict with this unfathomable being, which is inconsistent with the current strategy.

Malzahar gave a deep “look” to the disheveled Shark King after the Moonlight Tsunami, and then glanced at the endless darkness in the distance.

He said nothing more, and the boiling void energy around him subsided and calmed down like a tide.

The next moment, he, the newly born Void Queen, and the remaining Void swarm on the battlefield faded and disappeared silently, like ink dissolving in water, completely vanishing into the void.

It came suddenly and left just as quickly.

As Malzahar departed, the moonlit tsunami that stretched across the sky and sea slowly dissipated, as if it had never existed.

But that chilling will still shrouds this sea, serving as a warning to all that exists.

A war that led to the sudden fall of an emperor came to an abrupt end.

"Cold Eyes" pierced through the endless seawater, watching Malzahar disappear into nothingness, but did not choose to pursue him.

It's not that it's powerless to stop it, but rather that it stems from a deeper level of consideration.

In the vast depths of the Pacific Ocean, it is not the only supreme being. The ancient ruler that occupies the central Pacific is no less powerful than it, and the confrontation between the two has lasted for countless years.

Meanwhile, in the distant Atlantic Ocean, something was also watching with predatory intent.

As the supreme being that rules over a region, it must not easily use its full strength due to momentary anger, lest it damage its own power and give potential opponents an opportunity to take advantage.

This action was taken out of sheer necessity.

If Malzahar's actions had not crossed the line and truly killed an important emperor-level being (the Mirage Sea Dragon King Ant Mother).

This escalated the conflict to the point of shaking the balance of power in the Pacific, touching its bottom line. Otherwise, given its status and considerations, it would never have easily performed a miracle to intervene in such a dispute.
