Dragon Clan: I am Lu Mingfei, the Intelligence Strategist, the God of Concepts!

Chapter 184 Return to the Void vs. Black Sun, the True Manifestation of Primordial Power!

In a private warehouse near the Tokyo Bay pier.

"Chu Jun, this person is your mission target. Also, the relevant research data is stored on a USB drive and in this file folder. If you need it, you can take it back to Kassel College as evidence."

Kazama Ruri pointed to the middle-aged man who was hanging on the container, his mouth stuffed with a rag and making muffled noises.

"Wow, that's awesome, bro! Your efficiency is incredible!"

Old Tang was holding a plate of takoyaki in his hand, chewing it with great relish.

Chu Zihang was also somewhat surprised. Although Kazama Ruri had said she would help with the investigation, he didn't expect her to actually deliver all the witnesses and physical evidence to him.

"It's easy."

Kazama Ruri smiled nonchalantly. He had also spent some time investigating before confirming that the King had been secretly managing this route. He had turned a blind eye to it before, but now he didn't mind causing the King more trouble.

Sakurai Kogure, dressed as a secretary, handed over the folder she was holding, with a USB drive attached to the cover.

"You can take the documents with you. As for the person, what are you going to do with him? Torture him? Or just kill him?"

Upon hearing Kazama Ruri's words, the middle-aged man who was hanging there cried out even louder.

"Thank you."

Chu Zihang took the document and flipped through it. "Wait a moment, I'll just record a video."

Moments later, screams echoed from inside the warehouse.

And then it abruptly ended.

Chu Zihang's nominal mission to Japan was thus completed with ease, thanks to the help of Kazama Ruri, an insider.

Not intending to delve any further, Chu Zihang hadn't come for a mission in the first place. He had sensed just how murky the water in this area was... He'd let the leaders decide later.

As the group walked out of the warehouse, the air suddenly became heavy and oppressive.

A rich, visibly moist mist blew in from the distant sea, hitting my face with a warm yet damp chill. Dusk fell, and the night sky turned into thick, dark clouds.

“It looks like it’s going to rain heavily. What terrible weather. How about we go to Kabukicho to see a show tonight?” Kazama Ruri said with a smile. “I’ve booked a long-term private room there. If the rain gets too heavy, we can stay overnight in Kabukicho after the show.”

"Okay, trouble."

Chu Zihang thought about it and did not refuse Kazama Ruri's kindness.

Perhaps out of respect for his junior brother, the other party's attitude was unusually kind. However, Chu Zihang was also interested in learning more about these people—a group of 'ghosts' with unstable bloodlines. Come to think of it, his own bloodline had always been problematic as well…

However, upon hearing the words 'Kabukicho',

Old Tang, who should have been overjoyed, was surprisingly silent.

Gazing at the inexplicably gathered dark clouds in the distance, Old Tang's thick eyebrows furrowed instinctively, and he muttered to himself:

"What is this...? Why does it feel so itchy all over?"

……

In a park in Shibuya Ward that has long been emptied.

Uesugi Kotsushi's blade traced a perfect arc.

The crescent-shaped moon shone brightly, looking more like the sun during a total solar eclipse. The moon temporarily blocked the sunlight, but the bright corona still shone through the moon's shadow.

A super-powerful incantation has been unleashed.

It carries an eerie heat and gravity.

【Word of Power: Black Sun】

[Sequence: 110]

[Effect: The caster's powerful spirit will materialize into a black sun behind them, accompanied by massive amounts of burning, gravity, hurricanes, and mental suppression. This is a composite elemental incantation, and wherever it passes, it's like death walking the earth.]

[Evaluation: Lying on the ground and unleashing this attack is equivalent to invincibility; spinning at the speed of light is equivalent to invincibility.]

The power of this incantation was so immense that it visibly affected an entire neighborhood.

And Uesugi Kotsu stood right in the center of this black sun.

His white hair danced on its own as he recited ancient testimonies. The old man was not particularly burly, but at this moment he looked like an emperor standing amidst flowing clouds and flames, extremely calm and dignified.

The black sun slowly began to rotate, devouring the air at an astonishing speed and stirring up a violent hurricane. In an instant, the wind direction around the entire park was changed, and countless plants, small infrastructures, and water from the lake were swept up by the gale and flew towards the black sun, turning into snow-white ashes. Dark clouds rolled up in the gloomy sky.

"Holy crap... is this the real royal-level hybrid?"

Lu Mingfei subconsciously held his breath, witnessing this miraculous scene.

Putting aside the 'Ice Emperor' that Leviathan had previously unleashed, this was the first time he had seen such a high-level Word of Power fully unleashed. But that was a genuine Dragon King, while the one before him was just a human. Uesugi Kotsugu had created such a magnificent effect with a mere human body, like a raging dragon that could summon wind and rain.

With a thought, Lu Mingfei brought up the control panel.
The last time I broke through the level 61 barrier, I gained the right to extract Word Spirits, but I haven't used it yet, and there is still a vacancy in my Word Spirit slot.

The 'Black Sun', ranked 110th in the list of Words of Power, is a very good choice. Both the magnificent and grand scene in front of him and the description of 'death walking among men' are quite appealing to Lu Mingfei.

Of course, theoretically he has another option.

—The Word of Judgment mastered by Erii.

Erii has only released it once out of instinct, and the effect at that time is still vivid in his mind. A fluffy little bear almost swept across the entire street. However, Erii has never officially released the complete version of the Word of Power: Judgment in front of him.

Actively releasing this kind of incantation that transcends the limits of human bloodline will place a huge burden on Erii's already unstable bloodline, further activating the surging dragon blood within her.

Therefore, Lu Mingfei has never tried to acquire this super-powerful word of power that is ranked 111th in the sequence list... at least it's not the right time yet.

So, shall we choose Black Sun?
Lu Mingfei made his decision in just a moment.

He had previously obtained two core dragon runes of the Word of Judgment through the [Deep Intelligence Extraction Permission].

'Vplusp', 'Hryavq'.

The former means disaster, curse, calamity... the latter means deprivation, crushing, decomposition...

He has memorized all three dragon patterns, including those related to the previous pontine transection surgery.

I've been too busy lately, and the circumstances don't allow it... Well, I'll definitely study it properly when I get back!
"Black Sun!"

"You are the one!"

Lu Mingfei made a final decision in his heart.

A line of text flashed.

[Analysis of "Word of Power: Black Sun" is being obtained...]

[Remaining uses of in-depth intelligence extraction privileges: 22]

……

Those dark golden eyes stared indifferently at Lu Mingfei.

After many years, Uesugi Kotsuya once again unleashed his unique super-powerful words of power. Instead of feeling tired or showing signs of exhaustion, he became excited, his whole body turning red, his withered muscles becoming full, like a young man in his prime.

"If you admit defeat, I will not kill you outright."

Uesugi Koshi said in a deep voice, "As long as you come back with me, you will be judged by the Snake Clan."

"Is that so? Is this what you really think?"

Lu Mingfei firmly pinned the Tiger Roar Spear to the ground, his figure as steadfast as a pine tree, completely unaffected.

The black sun was like a small black hole, swallowing everything around it. All objects were pulled by the hurricane and gravity, burned to ashes by the high temperature, and then absorbed by the materialized sun wheel behind it and sprayed back, like a thermal pulverizer with infinite power. Its only weakness was behind it.

Zero realized this fact and immediately pulled Erii away to avoid it.

Lu Mingfei stood proudly in front of Uesugi Yue. This was a head-on confrontation, and no one was allowed to back down.

"Humph!"

Uesugi's gaze sharpened further, and with his dragon blood boiling, his breath carried a more intense and pungent scent, making the aura of the Black Sun even more violent.

—This was certainly not his original intention. He came here intending to beat this young man to death, but after seeing the dark red-haired girl who appeared out of nowhere, Uesugi Kotsugu changed his mind slightly.

But Lu Mingfei clearly didn't appreciate it.

Exterminate them all? Or put them on trial?

"If your Black Sun is only this much, then I can only say that it is no different from Genjiro's monarchy."

"Stop talking big and let me see the real Black Sun."

Lu Mingfei said calmly, "If there are any more!"

"Very well, as you wish!"

Uesugi was enraged by Lu Mingfei's indifferent words.

Young people who are ignorant and arrogant will inevitably pay the price for their reckless words and deeds!
next moment.

The black sun behind them suddenly contracted.

The wind and gravity suddenly intensified, uprooting the surrounding trees and small buildings. Before they even reached Uesugi Kotsugi, they were ignited by the increasingly intense heat and melted into snow-white ashes by the edge of the black sun. The dark clouds in the sky grew denser.

Uesugi Koshi completely altered the natural climate of this region with his human body.

Just like his bloodline awakening without warning back then, he couldn't control his power, and his Word of Power erupted, turning three entire city blocks into ruins.

Now that Uesugi Koshi's control abilities have greatly increased, what will happen if his Words of Power erupt again a century later, given the significantly increased human population density? Even if it only affects a single neighborhood!
But Uesugi Koshi was never one to care about such things.

"What a... terrifying guy!"

He appeared to be staring at Uesugi Kotsugi, but in reality, he was focused on the rapidly increasing progress bar in front of him.

It exceeded my expectations!
A divine-level incantation like Black Sun contains far more than just one or two dragon runes. Furthermore, the process of mentally driving these dragon runes to resonate with elements and manifest a corresponding supernatural structure is incredibly complex.

It will take more time... It will take Uesugi Koshi to continue to maintain the territory of 'Black Sun'.

Even further, it could unleash the full power of the 'Black Sun'.

Only by doing so can you perfectly analyze the Word of Power: Black Sun; otherwise, you will only get a defective product and waste an opportunity.

Lu Mingfei appeared indifferent, but inwardly he was increasingly satisfied with the power of the Black Sun.

This is exactly the offensive incantation I've been longing for—so powerful, so domineering…it deserves to be mine!
But the only problem is...

Damn it, this old guy seems to have gone too far!
At this moment, Lu Mingfei had to expend most of his energy just to resist the gravity carried by the Black Sun. What was more dangerous than the Black Sun was Uesugi Yue!

"It seems you're going to stop here, young man!"

Uesugi Yue noticed Lu Mingfei's predicament and burst into laughter.

He was at his peak, walking towards Lu Mingfei with the blazing black sun behind him. The two alchemical swords in his hands, shimmering with molten gold patterns, were spitting out flames, and the killing intent they contained was self-evident.

He did not further urge the Black Sun.

In Uesugi Yue's eyes, doing this much was enough to completely defeat Lu Mingfei.

The young man was showing signs of fatigue; within the range of his black sun, even normal activities were difficult, let alone fighting.

"Still not willing to admit defeat? Perhaps others will give you face, but I don't care about that."

Uesugi Kotsushi's tone was smug and triumphant.
"If this knife is used, you might die! Then the orthodox line of work will probably have to find another spokesperson!"

Danger was approaching, but Lu Mingfei remained silent.

The line between taking a risky risk and getting burned is often very thin.

The analysis of this super-powerful word power is still incomplete.

If we consider the power of the Black Sun obtained so far, it would be enough to crush most of the world's incantations.

But I still feel a little unwilling!
That being the case...

Lu Mingfei made a gesture that confused and slightly unsettled Uesugi Kotsugi.

He bit his index finger hard, drawing blood, and reached into his coat.
humming—

Amidst the whistling wind, a crisp sound could be faintly heard, as if something had been broken.

next moment,
A majestic and stirring dragon-shaped inscription suddenly resounded.

It drowned out all other sounds.

"I have a feeling that I'm the least likely person to die today."

……

The sky cracked open.

The Word of Power: Return to Nothingness erupts.

For the first time, Lu Mingfei realized that this super incantation, which was given the name 'Primordial Manifestation', actually didn't have such a long pre-cast animation!

This is a channeling skill!
The first second after crushing the recording tablet,
Unconsciously, Lu Mingfei recited that stirring dragon script.

The world before my eyes seemed to instantly become unreal.

As far as the eye could see, a massive expanse of seawater, obscuring the sky, rose directly into the air—no, the sky itself was ripped open, connecting to the deep sea through a rift called 'Guixu'.

According to the "Liezi: Tang Wen", there is a bottomless valley located east of the Bohai Sea that gathers water from all directions and the Milky Way. Its water volume remains constant and does not increase or decrease. In the Guixu, there are five fairy mountains: Daiyu, Yuanqiao, Fanghu, Yingzhou and Penglai, which are supported by fifteen giant turtles. Later, because the giant of Longbo Kingdom fished away six turtles, Daiyu and Yuanqiao mountains sank.

The veracity of the legend is long unverifiable.
But in an instant, the rain began to pour down.

The seawater inside that opening, which was between illusion and reality, poured down in large swathes, as if it had been 'thrown' out!

The currents swirled and surged, the waves crashed and roared. It wasn't raining; it was an endless ocean!
Hundreds of tons of ocean water resembled deep black water cubes.
It tilted down in one second.

Completely disregarding basic physical laws, it crashed down onto the black corona. Faced with the water in the artificial lake, Uesugi could have easily vaporized it like a waterspout, but water can carry a boat but also capsize it. The sudden arrival of such a massive flood and ocean immediately exceeded the limit of 'burning'.

"No way..."

Uesugi Kotsushi's expression changed drastically in an instant.
In his perception, he felt as if he were carrying mountains on his back.

……

Genji Heavy Industries Building, 61 floors.

Confidential archives.

Genji stood by the window, gazing at the dark, layered clouds in the direction of Shibuya, silently smoking a Soft Seven Star cigarette.

"Is this the true power of an emperor?"

"I originally thought there were exaggerated elements in the classics, but I didn't expect it to be a record of the facts."

Beside him, Inuyama He looked deathly pale.

Such a sudden and strange dark cloud is undoubtedly the result of elemental turbulence. Although it does not appear to be huge in scale, it at least indicates that... the former patriarch has officially started fighting with the other party.

And... he used his own super-powerful words of power.

In Tokyo, a cosmopolitan metropolis hailed as Asia's premier city, the impact of activating the Emperor's super-powerful words of authority is self-evident.

Even though Inuyama He carried out the evacuation and clearing work near Yoyogi Park in advance, it was to no avail.

That was simply to provide Uesugi Kotsugi with a stage for 'normal combat'.

Unexpectedly, more than sixty years later, the other party is still that hot-blooded young man who recklessly burned down the family shrine and then walked away without a care in the world.

This time, he unleashed his super-powerful words in the bustling Shibuya Ward of Tokyo.

Clearly, in this era where hybrids must be even more careful to conceal themselves, such behavior will only bring endless trouble to the family.

“It’s my fault, young master. I shouldn’t have brought him back.”

Inuyama He looked ashen-faced and said regretfully, "I'll take some men to stop him right now."

“It’s too late.” Genji sighed. “Let’s wait and see what happens. Let’s organize the rescue team and hope that there won’t be too many casualties.”

“But what about Lu Mingfei…” Inuyama He said hesitantly.

Genjiro said calmly, "We still don't know what Lu-kun's Word of Power is, do we..."

At that moment, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded inside Genji Heavy Industries.

An urgent phone call came in.

"Young Master, we've found it! We've found the Dead Servant you mentioned... in an area even below the Iron Dome Temple!"

Yuan Zhisheng's eyebrows furrowed instantly.

Sure enough, the two things happened at the same time?
He immediately said sternly, "Didn't I say? Once we find them, we'll deal with them all."

According to Masamune Tachibana, his research on Deadpool was to extract Deadpool fetal serum to prolong Erii's life, which was certainly one factor. However, now that Lu Mingfei has a more reliable method, these unstable factors should be eliminated as soon as possible.

"But... but someone released all those Deadpools beforehand! The original encirclement failed!"

The urgent sound of crows came through the phone.

"The underground area desperately needs manpower right now, otherwise those Dead Servants will run all over Tokyo along the Iron Dome!"

"what!"

However, before Yuan Zhisheng could say anything...

An even more piercing alarm sounded from outside the window.

The sirens ripped through the night, their high-decibel roar echoing from station to station. Someone had sounded the air raid siren, and within seconds, the piercing siren reverberated throughout the vast city of Tokyo.

Yuan Zhisheng suddenly stood up and looked out the window.

A faint, loud noise came from outside, booming like thunder, and no other sound could be heard in the world.

That was the sound of the ocean tide.

From the east, from the west.

……

To the west, in Shibuya Ward.

One second, two seconds...

The deep black seawater looked as if it had really been scooped up from the depths of the ocean, but it completely ignored the process of falling from the sky to the ground. It just looked as if it had experienced the moment of falling from the sky to the ground, presenting all kinds of irregular water blocks, some as wide as a pond, and some longer than two stories high.

These are all 'raindrops'.

Each raindrop is as powerful as a massive flood, washing away roads, crushing the earth, and pulverizing everything on the ground!
In the third second, the park transformed into a vast, boundless sea.

Why would Lu Mingfei need to emphasize this again?

Even if it means death, we must not remove the Black Sun!
Uesugi Koshi gritted his teeth, pushing the black sun to its absolute limit, frantically evaporating the seawater crowding around him, but still couldn't buy himself any time or space to catch his breath.
He was so overwhelmed by the immense force of the sea that he was forced to his knees!

In the fourth second, Uesugi Kotsushi's consciousness began to blur.

He even suspected that he was going to become the first emperor to be killed by rain during a downpour!
Even Lu Mingfei himself was shocked.

The analysis of the Word of Power: Black Sun has already reached 100%.

But what truly shocked him was the situation inside the opening in the sky that he sensed through the dragon's markings.

It was clearly empty inside, yet it seemed to be filled with seawater, even giving people a sense of 'infinity'.

Word of Power: Return to Nothingness!
Water that is absolutely infinite.

If this incantation continues, the water pouring out of the mouth will not only flood the entire city, but may even flood the entire planet, replicating the 'Carnian Flood Event' that occurred 2.3 million years ago.

This is the true power of 'authority', or rather, 'the manifestation of 'primordial authority'.

If we compare this world to a giant computer system, then modern science, alchemy, constants, and established 'facts' are all just strings of massive amounts of data code. The Primordial Manifestation is the backend key that 'modifies' this data code under certain conditions.

The more keys you have, the more code you can modify.

These keys are naturally present in individuals like dragon kings, but dragon kings in their juvenile stage have difficulty using them. Only when they reach the sub-adult stage can they pry them open a little bit.

Therefore, even though they are all "Return to the Void", "Candle Dragon", and "Shiva's Dance of Karma", these world-destroying incantations are worlds apart in the hands of a dragon king in his juvenile stage and in the hands of a dragon king in other stages.

But at this moment, Lu Mingfei's "Word of Power: Return to Nothingness" released through the "recording board" truly disrupted the underlying code of this world!
A full 6.8 seconds.

He didn't stop, and he forgot to stop.

They were captivated by the mystery hidden within that 'opening'.

Unseen by Lu Mingfei, the 'Ruins of Return' continued to unleash the violence inherent in the Dragon Clan's civilization.

……

"Look! Tokyo Bay! The ocean, the ocean has split open!"

Observers at the Tokyo Meteorological Bureau were exclaiming in alarm.

At this moment, the Tokyo Meteorological Bureau was in complete chaos, with printers spitting out recording paper madly.

The once calm and vast sea suddenly developed a huge gap, comparable to a chasm in the abyss. With a certain point in the Japan Trench as the dividing line, the eastern half and the western half formed a terrifying dividing line of the ocean, just like Moses parting the sea. The once whole ocean was divided into two halves.

The seawater continued to surge, as if summoned by some unknown force, half of it rising and half of it falling—no, it wasn't falling, it was just as if it was being held down by a pair of invisible hands.

This stark contrast, resembling a scene of market vendors snatching discounted ingredients, somehow exudes a strange harmony.

Everyone at the weather bureau and the ocean bureau was dumbfounded.

I stared at the screen, feeling completely lost.

No one knew what they could do. The young operator stood there dumbfounded, holding the receiver. The Prime Minister's Office called immediately, demanding an explanation from the weather bureau for the lack of advance warning.

How can this be explained? How can this be used as a warning?

This phenomenon completely defies the scope of modern scientific understanding; it's almost like...

Two gods are fighting over their inheritance!
What can ordinary people do?

Until one second, two seconds, three seconds... around the seventh second.

The ocean suddenly became calm.

Only the aftershocks of the tsunami were still rushing towards Tokyo.

But everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

at least,

This scene is understandable.

……

Dark clouds suddenly covered the bright moon, and the originally clear night sky was filled with rolling rain clouds, and torrential rain poured down from the sky.

Genjiro and Inuyama He rushed from the private passage to the rooftop of the Genji Heavy Industries building.
The two were stunned.

Standing in the midst of a fierce storm and wind.

They indeed saw the sea surging in, a fifty-meter-high wall of water advancing with a thunderous roar. Wherever it passed, cars, trees, and sheds were lifted onto the crest of the wave. Several-story buildings looked like pebbles on a beach in front of it. The sea was on the left and the sea was on the right.

Tens of thousands, perhaps even hundreds of thousands, of tons of seawater shattered into a foamy torrent that swept across the Chuo Ward and the Chiyoda Ward. Water splashed up inside countless toilets, echoing the raging tide. Low-rise traditional buildings were instantly submerged, while advertising screens on high-rise buildings continued to play advertisements for Mitsui, Mitsubishi, and Fujifilm. The prosperity and the end of the world were so close.

According to the weather forecast, it was supposed to be sunny tonight.

"The chief scientist of the Meteorological Bureau, Miyamoto Sawa, sent a tsunami warning to his family."

Sakura had followed us without us noticing, and opened a black umbrella.

“We don’t need his warning anymore.” Yuan Zhisheng stared blankly at the city. “I just want to know if the Iron Dome Temple can withstand it.”

As the young master of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, he should be aware of the project undertaken by Maruyama Construction, a subsidiary of his family.

The Iron Dome has a large number of deep water tanks, which are cast underground in concrete. Each tank is about 22 stories high and they are connected together to form a length of 6 kilometers. In addition, it is equipped with a giant pressure regulating tank and a large turbine drainage machine with 14000 horsepower. The total water storage capacity exceeds one billion cubic meters. Thanks to it, Tokyo has never experienced flooding since its completion.

But faced with the sudden surge of two waves, Genjiro found it difficult to muster any real confidence.

Sakura's call had already connected with Miyamoto Shigeo, the young head of the family who was in charge of Kaguya-hime's restoration work. He immediately ran out of the server room, which showed just how big the commotion outside was.

"In theory, the Iron Dome cannot be breached. The world's largest natural rainfall intensity occurred on July 4, 1956, in Unionville, Maryland, USA, with 31.2 millimeters of rain falling in one minute. Even if the rainfall intensity is increased three times now, it still cannot be breached. The Iron Dome was designed to ensure that Tokyo would not suffer from floods for 500 years."

"Of course, that's assuming that the city doesn't experience another damn tsunami!" Miyamoto Shigeo said breathlessly.

According to the monitoring information from Sheqi Hachike, just a few seconds ago, Shibuya Ward experienced a rainfall intensity more than a thousand times the world's highest, forming a peak tide exceeding 20 meters. Now the peak tide has subsided, but Shibuya Ward's underground water pipes have turned into a huge lagoon. Monitoring and observation revealed that the source of this 'mini urban tsunami' was actually rain.

Of course, there can't be such heavy rain in nature, unless a tornado picks up seawater and pours it into a very small area in an instant.

"A man-made tsunami? But the source wasn't the ocean... although the ocean direction also triggered the tsunami."

"What is Uesugi Kotetsu's Word of Power?" Genji asked.

“Black Sun,” Inuyama He said.

"If this scene is caused by a Word of Power, what kind of Word of Power is it?"

"If it is 'Guixu' (归墟), it is possible for a tsunami to be artificially created, but we do not know the true effects of Guixu, or whether it is related to rain. The orthodox side has not provided relevant data."

Inuyama He said, "But the Void is the supreme power exclusive to the King of the Ocean and Water. Only the King of the Ocean and Water... or the Black King can use the Void!"

"Lu Mingfei just killed the King of the Ocean and Water! So... could he actually be the Black King?"

Inuyama He's face showed fear.

Only the Dragon King, who shares the same origin, can unleash the four world-destroying incantations; this is a universally acknowledged fact in the world of hybrid races.

The black emperor who created the four dragon kings could, of course, also unleash corresponding world-destroying incantations.

“That’s not how it is.” Genji shook his head.

"Inuyama-kun, I have to tell you a secret that belongs only to the inner three families. When the White King awoke ten thousand years ago, it was our ancestor who sealed him away. In that battle, two great Words of Power were activated at the same time. Their names are 'Return to the Void' and 'Shiva's Dance of Karma.' They are the ultimate Words of Power of the King of the Ocean and the King of the Water, and the King of the Earth and the Mountain, respectively. But the ones who released them were Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi of that generation."

"Such a thing is true?" Inuyama He was stunned.

"The control over the spiritual elements helped our ancestors simulate those two ultimate forms of incantation, but the price was death."

Yuan Zhisheng's voice was calm.
During this time, he continuously sorted through the information on the Snake Clan and learned a great deal of past secrets.

"So Lu Mingfei... is already dead?"

“What I mean is that the key to releasing the ultimate Word of Power is not the Dragon King himself, but other factors. Perhaps the orthodox sect obtained something from the King of the Ocean and Water when they killed him, which is why Lu Mingfei was able to release the Word of Power: Return to Nothingness,” Yuan Zhisheng said in a low voice.

"I see." Inuyama He nodded silently.

"Let's get back to our positions and get to work."

Genji no longer looked at the tidal bore approaching from the west; the sea seemed to have lost its power and was gradually receding.

The damage was irreparable, but their mission was not yet over.

For example, continue to protect Princess Kaguya's machine room and hunt down the dead servants roaming within the Iron Dome Temple.

If... they weren't washed away by the tide.
