Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 390 The Shurima Empire will not compromise!
"Oh?"

It was just a single syllable, yet it seemed colder than the eternal ice of the Antarctic Emperor.

"Are you threatening me?"

These emperors, who have survived from ancient times to the present, each possessed profound wisdom and cunning.

They knew all too well that, in the face of a powerful being like Azir, who represented an expansionist will, relying solely on verbal negotiations and empty threats was like asking a tiger for its skin—there was absolutely no way to obtain the desired promises.

Therefore, they chose a more direct approach, one that was more in line with the laws of the demon world—strike first!

They want to wage a real war, using flames of war and bloodshed to create a global siege network, thereby clearly sending a message to Azir and his allies:
If you dare to target any one of us as you did with the Bermuda Triangle, then today's joint attack will be the norm you will face tomorrow!
We are not the kind of people who will sit idly by and wait to die!

This is a blatant show of force, a cruel strategy of using war to force peace.

They attempted to use the pressure of actual war to force this newly emerging hegemon to recognize the existence of "boundaries".

Perhaps this could force him to make concessions, in exchange for confirmation of each other's spheres of influence and peace.

However, they miscalculated.

The words of the Antarctic emperor, imbued with the will of ice, did not elicit the expected compromise or reconciliation.

"This is not a threat, I am stating the facts. If you insist on going your own way, then let's fight!" The voice of the Antarctic Emperor's clone was icy cold, making his bottom line clear.

Azir's response was simple: "The Shurima Empire will not compromise!"

The scepter in his hand struck the ground, as if striking the final note of war.

Then, he raised his hand and pointed south, his gaze seemingly piercing through the boundless space, landing directly on that continent eternally frozen, and uttered a thunderous declaration:

"I want the Sun Disc to stand on your Antarctic continent!"

Upon hearing this, the world fell silent!

This is no longer a simple refusal; it is the ultimate provocation and the most arrogant declaration of war!
This means that Shurima's military might will eventually be directed at the world's last frigid land, and that the sun's rays will melt the ice cap that has remained frozen for billions of years!

"Arrogant!" Before the Antarctic Emperor's true form could respond, the Lord of the Eternal Glacier, whose attack had just been easily neutralized by Azir, was already enraged!
It has been sleeping for thousands of years, how could it have ever been treated with such contempt?

A dark blue rage ignited in its enormous ice crystal eyes, accompanied by a roar that shattered icebergs, and its massive glacial body trembled violently!

"Abyssal Ice Fiend!"

Three deep blue ice springs, originating from beneath a bottomless icy abyss and condensed with the purest, most extinguishing cold energy, tore through the sea and sky like three resurrected frost dragons.

It lunged at Azir and the sun disk beneath his feet from three extremely tricky angles!

This strike contained the dignity and full power of a veteran emperor, and its power far exceeded that of the previous ones!
Faced with this terrifying attack fueled by rage, Azir's face beneath his golden mask remained impassive, only the golden flames of the sun in his eyes burned even more intensely.

He coldly uttered a few words:
"You unruly brat, you're asking for death!" He didn't even move his scepter; he simply raised his right hand, which was encased in golden arm armor, clenched his fist, and then punched down in the direction of the Lord of the Eternal Silent Glacier below!
"The Tsar's World-Shaking Strike!"

It is not a fist in the physical sense, but a condensation of the power of ascension!

In an instant, the sun disk in the sky shone brightly, and the endless radiance converged into a giant golden fist that blotted out the sky. Ancient Shurima runes were imprinted on the fist, and it flowed with divine power like molten gold.

Carrying the supreme power to suppress the eight wastelands and shake the world, it crashed down!
The Lord of the Eternal Silent Glacier only saw a flash of golden light before the giant fist, seemingly formed from the weight of the entire sky, slammed solidly into the core of its glacial body, which was comparable to a mountain range!
“Boom——!!!!!”

Where the golden giant fist crashed down, dazzling divine light and deep blue, frigid energy clashed and annihilated each other!
The Lord of the Eternal Silent Glacier let out a muffled roar of pain and horror. Its proud body, tempered by ice for thousands of years, made a teeth-grinding "crack" sound, as if it were glass being smashed by a giant hammer!

Thick, golden cracks spread rapidly from the fist imprint in all directions outwards from its body!
Its massive body shook violently, as if it would collapse completely at any moment. The eternal annihilation domain surrounding it was shattered by this punch!
With just one strike, this ancient glacial emperor was severely injured and on the verge of collapse!

But this is just the beginning!
Azir clearly has no intention of giving his opponent any breathing room.

He stood atop the sun disk, his arms slowly outstretched, as if embracing the entire world.

"Sunlight, gather!"

In an instant, the golden light that had been shining in all directions suddenly contracted and condensed inward like rivers flowing into the sea, eventually transforming into an incomparably condensed pure white beam of light!

The Lord of the Eternal Glacier had barely managed to regain his balance after being shocked by that punch.

Sensing the terrifying heat that was enough to evaporate its very life force, the enormous ice crystal finally revealed an unprecedented fear in its eyes!
"No—!" It roared in despair, desperately mobilizing its remaining extreme cold power to construct one after another absolute zero ice shields, each a thousand meters thick, in front of it!

However, everything is in vain.

Azir raised a finger and pointed it at the other person.

"Annihilation."

A tiny, almost invisible, pure white ray shot out from his fingertip.

The rays were silent and seemingly oblivious to the distance of time and space, instantly piercing through countless seemingly indestructible ice shields.

It precisely hit the core of the Lord of the Eternal Silent Glacier!
"ah--!!!!!"

A blood-curdling scream echoed through the sky!
The massive glacial body of the Lord of the Eternal Silent Glacier, from the point of impact, rapidly turned into nothingness and steam like a piece of paper being ignited, leaving not even a trace of ice!

Its imperial essence is so fragile and vulnerable in the face of this ultimate solar fire!
In just two moves! A powerful emperor who had dominated Antarctica for countless years, the Lord of the Eternal Silent Glacier, was utterly crushed and nearly perished under the true power displayed by Azir!
As the golden light faded, Azir remained standing in the same spot, as if he had only done something insignificant.

His indifferent gaze swept over the Antarctic Emperor's avatar, whose body was now flickering, and over the Storm Frostbone Emperor, who was too terrified to move in the distance.

The chilling verdict echoed across the deathly silent sea:

"This is Shurima's attitude."
