In Type-Moon, people create a magic family lineage

Tsk-!

A tooth-grinding, teeth-grinding sound, like tearing through thick fabric.

The bloated jungle of dolls covering the night sky was torn open by an invisible yet absolute force, creating a huge, irregular rift!

Moonlight and the night sky poured down from the crack like a flood, illuminating the astonished orange below, as well as the countless broken, twitching, pale limbs along the crack's edge, as if severed by an invisible blade.

They lost their vitality, as if all their energy had been instantly drained, and they drooped and disintegrated helplessly.

"Success!" Qingzi gasped for breath, her forehead soaked with sweat, but the light in her eyes was astonishing.

The strain of the magic circle's operation caused her entire body's magic circuits to emit a wailing, searing pain, but this pain transformed into the sweet taste of victory.

A barely perceptible ripple also flashed in Yuzhu's eyes.

However, her gaze was fixed on the figure briefly illuminated by the moonlight behind the crack—Aozaki Touko.

The anger and astonishment that had been twisted by the burning of the demonic eye on Orange's face receded quickly like a tide.

Instead, there was a chilling, cold, inhuman calm.

“Those are…beautiful fireworks, my dear sister.”

this moment.

Orange's voice was eerily calm, with a metallic quality, "The Fifth Magic... truly lives up to its name."

"You guys have something to be proud of for forcing me to use this."

She... actually had another trump card up her sleeve?

Seeing the sudden change in Aoko and Arisu's expressions, Touko opened her arms.

The vast jungle of dolls behind her, the torn wound, and all the writhing, broken limbs around her seemed to be summoned by some invisible force at this moment, rushing madly and recklessly toward Orange!

It's not an attack, but... fusion!

Countless pale limbs, like living vines, wrapped around Orange's body, pierced her torso, and covered her limbs.

Her body was like a bottomless black hole, greedily devouring the sea of ​​puppets driven by the Blood Ring of Principle.

Her body was rapidly expanding and deforming, with the doll's joints, head, and twisted limbs frantically splicing and proliferating on her surface, emitting a chilling "crackling" sound of bones rubbing together and wood squeezing.

Her head was submerged, replaced by a huge and distorted "face" pieced together from countless small doll faces. On that face, the red light of the accumulated demonic eyes shone like candlelight in the abyss, shining in countless empty eye sockets!

In the blink of an eye, Aozaki Touko disappeared.

Instead, standing almost vertically on the edge of the crack, is the Mountain of Dolls!

A colossal statue made of flesh and wood, composed of countless writhing, spliced, and twisted pale limbs, with a core burning with accumulated demonic flames, radiating a devouring power that is even more terrifying and suffocating than the previous Puppet Forest!

Its mere existence seemed to distort the surrounding space, distorting it with the "Lung Forest" law it emanated. Light dimmed, even moonlight was swallowed by its massive form and the invisible force field it emitted. At the edge of Aoko's magic circle, the power that isolated and absorbed it began to fluctuate violently, like a candle flickering in the wind!

"This... is this your 'true form'? Orange!"

They even turned their own bodies into 'dolls'—

Aoko gritted her teeth, feeling unprecedented pressure.

The light from the magic circle flickered violently, as if it might go out at any moment.

The colossal doll's enormous face, composed of countless tiny faces pieced together, turned towards them, its numerous mouths opening and closing simultaneously, emitting layers upon layers of orange-like sounds, echoing from hell:

"Come on, Aoko, Arisu. Let me see... how long your 'chance' can burn?"

Before the words were finished, the enormous doll-like statue, so large that it obscured the view, raised only one "arm" made up of countless intertwined and solidified limbs, and with the power to crush mountains, slowly but irresistibly pressed down on the tiny mansion and highway below—and the two people struggling to support themselves in the magic circle!

The shadows instantly swallowed the moonlight, and also the glimmer of hope that had just ignited in Aoko's eyes.

The oppressive feeling, so heavy it was almost despairing, made the air freeze.

The magic circle let out a mournful cry of unbearable strain, and Yuzhu's face instantly turned paler than the moonlight.

Their combined attack, which had just torn the jungle apart, seemed so pale and powerless in the face of Orange's final, revealed trump card—a complete fusion of herself and the city of dolls.

This is Aozaki Touko's ultimate trump card.

This is not only due to its enormous size, but also its terrifyingly mysterious specifications.

It rivals the level of 'gods'.

This is the key to the confrontation between Aozaki Touko and Lucan Luvist—

Lu Kang could easily crush the unconscious lungs and heart, but if he could mobilize this mysterious energy in an orderly manner and unleash its true 'ancestor' level mystery...

Lu Kang is still a force to be reckoned with.

at the same time.

Lu Kang's vacant eyes reflected the slowly descending giant hand and the tiny yet still upright figure below.

A mysterious light flowed quietly between his fingers.

"...It seems I have to make a move." He muttered to himself, his voice so soft it was almost drowned out by the wind pressure brought by the giant hand tearing through the air.

He said, "So, magicians are something that only work when there is time to prepare, rather than in an encounter."

"Regardless of the era..."

"They're all so troublesome!"

The space itself seemed to groan in the path of the giant hand's descent.

Amidst the mournful cries, the space itself seemed to freeze.

then.

Then, starlight shone in the sky, and purple nebulae connected with each other, instantly transforming into a sword thousands of meters long that seemed to rise from the ground and slashed upwards.

No recitation or pre-existing preparation is required.

Whatever one thinks or desires is what one follows.

The divine thoughts, composed of 272 spirits, can be woven into unparalleled magic in an instant.

Its name is——

【Star Technique Cut】.

This is a modern-day reproduction of the astronomical yin-yang method that Lu Kang learned as an yin-yang master. It is formed by receiving the energy of celestial bodies and stars, refracting the 'autumn' in the clouds, and instantly creating it. Its essence is a celestial science magic trick created by folding and reversing a magic mirror that refracts the starry sky.

In this part of the sky, stars also connect.

Under these conditions, the aurora borealis operates like thunder!

Chapter 164 Unique Marble: Steel Earth

Among the various mystical systems established in modern times to adapt to the times, although the ways of driving the mystical are different, there is a set of different classifications for the levels of 'techniques', which are essentially not different.

Magic, great magic, and sorcery.

Magic, supernatural powers, great supernatural powers.

And so on.

The former is a general technique, while the latter is a unique 'method' that even the most powerful and divine beings cannot replicate.

The so-called general "technique" naturally refers to a mysterious operation that can be achieved by one's own power. It only requires the preparation of props in advance, the combination of one's own magic power, and does not require a complicated ritual to be performed.

When it comes to the realm of 'grand magic,' even more complex preparation tools are required. Unless one is a top-tier magician, it would be extremely difficult for an ordinary magician to perform such a feat on their own.

In essence, magic is merely the manipulation of phenomena, a limited form of 'deception' of the world.

It's just that everywhere you look there are natural fires that don't exceed 1,600 degrees Celsius, natural water that doesn't involve high energy, fog and light that obscure your vision, and so on.

The magic tricks are profound, reaching the essence of things. Fire can reach thousands or even tens of thousands of degrees, easily overcoming the high-temperature barrier. Water can also use its properties to cut steel and even diamonds—these all involve fundamental principles and concepts.

What Aozaki Touko is performing at this moment is undoubtedly the greatest magic of all magic.

It takes the 'Principle Blood Ring' of the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles as its core and a city built of countless puppets as its body.

Then it uses itself as a driving force.

To achieve the act of devouring the earth's ley line magic of a city and absorbing the lifeblood of a planet.

It also definitely involves principles and concepts.

This level of mystery is considered top-tier even among grand magic tricks.

It is a testament to its 'Grand' designation.

Under such mysterious operation, Aoko's magic, which had been activated but was not yet fully mastered, was helpless, and Arisu's fairy tale magic was far from being able to match it—

But the mystery surrounding this specification.

For Lu Kang today, 'countering' is just a matter of a single thought!

A single thought, and it truly is just a single thought.

In a flash, the aurora flipped, and a moment later, the giant doll-like mountain's hand, which had been pressing down with a roar, was split apart amidst the blooming of shimmering purple stars.

The grand magic of 【Star Technique Cut】spun past, leaving behind a lingering shadow of light in mid-air.

It parted an invisible curtain of light.

Space seemed to stand still.

Aoko and Yuju gazed at the figure that appeared on the light screen.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"This guy... he's finally here."

Aoko sighed and said this.

Although it was somewhat shameful, the moment Orange pressed her palm down, she truly thought she was going to die.

Youzhu nodded slightly, but showed no surprise whatsoever.

really.

He just saved me.

The girl was so certain; compared to the carefree Aoko, Arizuka was much more perceptive.

In contrast to their reactions, the light of the 'demon eye' burning at the core of Orange, who had transformed into a giant doll mountain, only increased. She looked at the figure standing on the light screen formed by the reflection of stars. But a moment ago, she would have left immediately without looking back—but now it was different.

"Lukang Tuval Luvist..."

"You're finally here."

"It seems you're quite looking forward to my arrival?" Upon hearing this, Lu Kang paused slightly, raising his gaze to meet those demonic eyes.

Aozaki Touko, whose original appearance was no longer recognizable, only spoke in her original voice, saying, "That's... natural."

"You're the only person who has ever made me feel truly defeated!"

A light so bright it was impossible to look directly at it.

The Demon Eye, which was once damaged.

Grand Puppeteer also possesses the pride and indomitable spirit that comes with being a magician!

It turns out that

Beowulf is not the only one whose self-confidence has been undermined.

"So, you think that in this state, you can fight against me, or even defeat me?"

Lu Kang, however, found it amusing.

The so-called 'rival of the gods' was achieved in less than half a lifetime of simulation after he broke free from the constraints of his era—and it was not just a temporary divine realm, but a mysterious realm of infinite growth that was permanently established within himself.

Even the phantom spirit he created in the Tsarist Empire, formed from the collective resentment of the Tsars and absorbing the resentment of the entire nation, was itself a divine-level magical creation.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It seems that using the power of the Blood Ring has not only given you a temporary taste of the 'Ancestor's' mystery, but has also made you as brainless as Lin Anaxiu."

"—However, I can give you this opportunity."

"I'm giving you a chance to show me everything and challenge me!"

Crackling sounds filled the air as the massive puppet-like figure began to move, its countless joints pulsating as if in struggle. Aozaki Touko, having heard Lu Kang's words, did feel a surge of confidence, but she didn't think it was just empty talk. In any case, her greatest reliance this time was ultimately the defeated opponent—and she understood that only by giving it her all could she possibly compete with him.

then.

Amidst the colossal mountain, countless eerie green lights ignited above and below it like lamps.
