Age of Adepts

As the vast and fierce energy pillars of the Floating City's Energy Dense Core linked over the humanoid phantom, the energy scent that soared from his body grew deeper and more introspective.

"Energy Spear, Arcane Phantom, Phileasta... Light of Truth!"

With the stern voice of the humanoid figure, a strange white light as thick as three meters shot out from his hand and landed on top of the star swallowing beast's head, which looked like a giant.

Strangely enough, when other energy pillars and arcane auras touched the protective force field outside the Star Swallowing Beast's body, they would all be distorted, refracted, and dissipate most of their power. But this strange white light, as if it didn't belong to any elemental spectrum, ignored the protective force field outside the Star Swallowing Beast's body and its tough and strange armor, and penetrated into the Star Swallowing Beast's skull without any hesitation.

One moment, the Star Swallowing Beast was moving unstoppably, and the next moment, like a lava volcano that had suddenly erupted, a huge blood hole was drilled out of its huge skull, from which a dozens of meters high column of sticky and fetid blood spewed out.

The Star Swallowing Beast, struck by this blow, raised its head and roared, a pair of huge green eyes more than ten meters in diameter quickly focused on the strange humanoid figure standing thousands of meters away in the sky above the Olympic Hall.

One of the twin Emperors of the Arcane Empire... that terrifying ruler Garcia!

No, not him, but just one of his energy bilocations....

Although the Star Swallowing Beast instantly recognized the other party's identity, facing an 8th Order Arcane Emperor... energy billet, even though it was the most terrifying star beast in the world, it had to retreat.

After all, the huge difference in strength between the two sides was on display here.

Even if an ordinary Great Olympian came even more, the Star Swallowing Beast would not be afraid of a single bit. This was because, under the shackles of the Bitter Law, the upper limit of the attacks they could inspire with their arcane arts was at the peak level of the 4th rank. Attacks at such a level might kill the vast majority of creatures, but it would be difficult to deal a fatal blow to a void creature like the Star Swallowing Beast.

It was precisely because it understood this that the Star Swallowing Beast dared to charge into the Morian Plane with such a big thorn in its side and attack this Floating Sky City.

But unfortunately, its luck wasn't good.

Garcia, the arcane emperor ruler who was fighting in an incomprehensible battle outside the domain, would actually split a portion of his power to project back within the bit plane at such a critical moment and condense into an energy split. This... this was clearly somewhat unexpected for the Star Swallowing Beast.

No one else could kill a star swallowing beast, but an arcane emperor like Garcia certainly could!

Using the laws of the bit plane that he controlled, and using the powerful arcane energy provided by the Floating City Energy Dense Core, Garcia instantly held up an arcane net around the Star Swallowing Beast, temporarily isolating the energy shackles of the bit plane laws. As a result, the shackle that the upper limit of attacks within the bit plane could only be limited to the peak of 4th rank was gone.

In the next second, the attributeless energy light that was purely made up of thousands of arcane spears penetrated the Star Swallowing Beast's defenses and pierced a huge 3-meter diameter blood hole above its skull. And with the massive amount of arcane energy pouring in, the Star Swallowing Beast's flesh, blood, tendons and bones, and ** were also detonated.

Ow....

The Star Swallowing Beast raised its head, raised its neck and let out a wild roar that shook heaven and earth.

When all the arcane masters in Floating Sky City heard this sound, they all covered their ears and fell down from the sky. Their eyes, ears, mouths, and noses were filled with purple and black blood snakes, and their spiritual worlds were in turmoil, losing their ability to fight almost instantly.

But this roar was already the final madness of the Star Swallowing Beast!

After roaring, the Star Swallowing Beast's mountain-like body crumbled apart in every part, splattering uncountable amounts of terrifying blood plasma from within. And its snake-like head that was raised high up also ended up dropping powerlessly, smashing a small arcane tower beneath it into a pile of broken pieces.

As for the bloodthirsty beasts that its flesh and blood had congealed into, they also suddenly toppled over at the same moment, quickly crumbling into a floor full of tainted blood and some dark, foul-smelling mysterious substance.

Sensing the death of the 6th stage Star Swallowing Beast, the strange creatures that were still fighting in the surroundings of Floating Sky City scattered in droves. The arcane masters would not easily let them go, and sent a large number of arcane guard towers to chase after them and attack them.

The two sides fought and retreated.

Soon, the flames of war spread to the surrounding human cities, villages and towns!

These scattered extra-domain exotic beasts might not be a match for the arcane masters on their own, but for those human settlements that were not guarded by arcane power, it was no less than a terrible disaster.

A random Tier 2 Exotic Beast could easily annihilate a human village or town, and as for those human cities with low ranked arcane masters and a large number of arcane apprentices, once a large group of Exotic Beasts invaded, even if the enemy was eventually repelled or wiped out, the entire city would be mostly reduced to ruins.

As for the children of the Arcane Empire who had died due to the invasion of calamity creatures and star beasts, there were countless more. Only those regions that were located in remote areas, far away from the Floating City, were still barely able to maintain peace.

However, as more and more loopholes were found in the barriers of the position, the foreign beasts and enemies that invaded the position became stronger and stronger. There were fewer and fewer areas within the entire Morian Plane that were still able to remain peaceful.

I have to say, you can't have an egg without a nest!

When the entire Morian Plane was facing the invasion of many powerful clans, it was already an unrealistic illusion to think about being alone in this kind of extinction.

To die standing or sitting, this was no longer a question, but a doomed fate!

....................

Ryanair Province.

300 km west of Ruijing Garden Floating City.

In front of a small village nestled in the mountains.

Grim's body was clustered in a layer of golden flames, hidden from view, silently watching a group of exotic beasts ravaging the village in front of them.

The village was small, with only sixty to seventy households, and most of the houses were old wooden onesies, with green plants in the front and back of the houses, giving it a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

However, at this moment, a group of different beasts that had fled from somewhere had occupied the place and were frantically slaughtering the unarmed ordinary villagers.

This was a group of dissimilar beasts with eagle wings, snake heads and lion-like bodies, filled with a disgusting smell of blood conditioning!

They numbered around 17 heads, and their strength was somewhere between 1st and 2nd rank.

Naturally, such guys couldn't be the elite inside Calamity's camp, but merely cannon fodder and runners on the outskirts. But to the Austrian children of the village in front of them, they were already an unbeatable kind of terrifying demon.

"How about, bypass them or kill them?" The Holly Witch who drank the invisibility potion inquired softly and carelessly.

"It's better to kill it!" Qiu Lisa, who used Mind Light to cover her body, had a cold glint in her eyes and likewise suggested, "Those Calamity creatures are also our competitors, it's good to cut their power by one point!"

The Holly Wizard scoffed at Qiu Lisa's suggestion.

You know, from the beginning of the mission, he or she had kept a low profile, hardly daring to provoke any opponents. Now, instead, he or she dared to poke into the hornet's nest of Calamity creatures!

Is this two-headed wizard so kind as to help the natives?

The answer was a natural yes or no.

The reason why this Qiu Lisa said so was purely because she had read that legendary fire witch's mind and was only saying it along with his thoughts. Moreover, for so long, she had always maintained her Kewlissa persona and hadn't let that Mangus show up for a long time.

This... the situation in it was self-evident!

"We've accomplished most of the missions assigned to us by the main team along the way, we've attacked seven of the ten attack sites, and not far from there is that Regency Gardens." Grim paused here, "I think it would be better for us to take a break at this point. Kill the alien beasts, maybe we can get a little information from their brains on the Calamity side..."

"Leave it to me!" Her own opinion was adopted by Grim, and Qiu Lisa immediately looked overjoyed, "You guys go ahead and find a place to rest, I'll leave these little guys to me**!"

Grim gave a soft grunt and was the first to fade into the flames, revealing his form and striding off into the village. And the Holly Wizard shrugged his shoulders inexorably, also revealing his body and following closely behind Grim.

Ever since the battle in Maplewood Town, both Holly and Qiu Lisa had recognized Grim's strength and captaincy, and had become subservient since then.

It was just that Holly Witch was just respectful and distant, unlike Qiu Lisa, who eagerly showed a look of wanting to join the pong thighs.

As soon as the two of them were revealed, the group of alienated beasts that were still wreaking havoc inside the village sensed their scent. Looking distantly at the striking human forms of the two, the alienated beasts hissed and flew up into the sky, the metal spears in their hands still wearing the twisted and screaming figures of humans in pain.

"Humans... flesh and blood... death..."

Mouths rambling some odd syllables, the group of alienated beasts flapped their grey eagle wings and swooped down from high in the sky, launching a swift charge at the two wizards.

However, before they could reach Grim, an invisible psychic ripple sliced through the air, and they braked their dive into a heap in the air.

For a time, countless greenish-gray eagle feathers flew in the sky, and one by one, their twisted bodies were planted on top of the soil with broken heads.

One by one, the 1st stage alienation beasts broke their necks and ruptured their internal organs, never rising from the ground again. The only four Tier 2 beasts struggled to get up, and each of them stood frozen in place with dull eyes, losing their previous hideous and brave posture.

Grim and Holly stepped over the ebony blood stains and walked past them, straight into the village.

On the other hand, Lisa Qiu appeared on the side of the four beasts, her eyes overflowing with a strange red mane, and stabbed their foreheads with outstretched fingers.

A few moments later, with the murmuring of an incantation, Qiu Lisa withdrew her finger, and the four beasts fell to the ground, swirling foul black and purple blood plasma from their blood holes.
