High above the clustered mountain peaks, Lu Jun swept his gaze across Su Lu's trusted subordinates, unable to suppress the ambition swelling in his heart.
He gave the order, "Begin."
Buzz buzz buzz!
Su Lu controlled the Star Particles, blazing spiritual power overflowing from his eyes as boundless magic energy surged into the heavens. Reflected across the void, countless Star Paths intertwined to form lines, blotting out the sky and sun. One Star Map after another emerged, combining together as Constellations were born, eventually forming vast connected palaces.
A total of seven immense Star Palaces appeared, resembling a magnificent heavenly court. Fusing into one, they formed a starry cosmos that enveloped heaven and earth, while endless crimson lightning burst forth, descending as a scarlet universe of thunder.
Lightning Element Forbidden Curse: Heavenly Tribulation of the Thunder Vault!
Boom boom boom!
An apocalyptic aura of destruction spread across the entire world of the Tyrant Mountains. Above, the thunder universe shone brilliantly, every crimson star a compressed lightning sphere hundreds of meters wide. The countless stars crashed down like meteors, streaking across the sky with the might of world destruction.
A cruel smile appeared on Su Lu's face. Setting aside schemes and authority, he truly stood at the peak of humanity as a Forbidden Curse Mage. He could independently cast a Star Universe and had even cultivated the Lightning Element's exclusive Forbidden Curse, Heavenly Tribulation of the Thunder Vault. It was in no way inferior to ordinary Forbidden Curses that required long preparations.
At the same moment, beside him, his capable assistant and Vice Chairman of the Asian Magic Association, the Light Element Forbidden Curse Mage Xi Zhe, also unleashed the Light Element Forbidden Curse, Heaven's Sorrowful Rainbow!
The old man Xi Zhe, dressed in silver-gray robes, manipulated his Star Particles with astonishing mastery. He too could independently release a Forbidden Curse without assistance from others. Behind him emerged a vast universe of light.
At the center of the Light Element cosmos, a majestic and sacred gate opened wide, endless radiance pouring forth and flooding heaven and earth.
Rainbow light descended like threads from the ninth heavens.
Infinite light formed countless solar altars layered atop one another, suspended high in the sky like a sacred mountain piled together, while the chants of billions of worshippers echoed endlessly.
Every solar altar was formed from tens of thousands of rainbow strands cascading downward like flowing waterfalls of light, mountain upon mountain. The rare rainbow seen after rain seemed to have become the most ordinary decoration within the heavenly sanctuaries.
Across the Tyrant Mountains, rainbow light intertwined while silver waterfalls poured down, as though a prosperous divine palace comparable to a human megacity had suddenly risen into existence, leaving evil creatures with nowhere to hide!!
The heavenly rainbow radiance descended in the form of curtains of light waterfalls. Billions of rays crashed downward, every strand resembling a spear capable of piercing through the world itself, unstoppable and indestructible.
The two Forbidden Curse universes filled the void side by side. Scarlet lightning and seven-colored radiance rained down endlessly, covering the Tyrant Mountains and stirring up overwhelming tides of energy.
For a time, every demon creature within the Tyrant Mountains went mad. Sensing the deadly danger descending from the heavens, panic spread as they fled toward the outer mountain ranges.
Wind Flame Thunder Eagles, Hill Titans, pseudo-dragons, and other Commander-level great demons scattered in retreat.
And it still was not over.
Dozens of Super Tier members from the Magic Association wore solemn expressions as they formed magic formations together, simultaneously releasing Super Tier magic. The momentum was earth-shaking. Over a hundred Super Tier spells fused together, rivaling the might of a Forbidden Curse.
Boom boom boom!
The endless overlapping mountains of the Tyrant Mountains trembled violently. Peaks shook, and countless massive boulders collapsed. Before the Forbidden Curse magic had even landed, the terrifying pressure from the gravity field alone had already begun crushing the mountain range.
In the distance, Lu Jun and Asharuiya watched this scene unfold.
The latter's face turned pale. She opened her mouth as if wanting to shout, but in the end only murmured softly, "Austin…"
As for Lu Jun, his expression was solemn. No wonder Asharuiya had requested that Jiuzhou send a dual-element Forbidden Curse Mage for support. Su Lu's personal strength and influence truly could not be underestimated. Without transforming into the Undead Emperor, even he admitted he had no confidence in defeating Su Lu. Adding Xi Zhe into the equation only made it harder.
By the standards of Forbidden Curse rankings, even Xi Zhe barely counted as having stepped into the second tier, a veteran Forbidden Curse Mage.
Lu Jun pondered silently. If he wanted to save the Black Dragon Emperor, he would need to use indirect tactics first: destroy the contract formation, then join forces with the Black Dragon against Su Lu.
Dong!
While the two were still thinking, the power of the Forbidden Curses descended at lightning speed from the heavens. The majestic mountain range collapsed inch by inch, the earth splitting open while magma erupted forth. Crimson flames exploded everywhere before turning to dust, resembling the apocalypse itself.
Before the Forbidden Curses descended, beneath the endless sea of clouds, within the cliffs and ravines, the pitch-black ridge-like mountain range stirred slightly.
The Black Dragon Emperor had awakened.
But it was already too late to react.
The destructive lightning and holy radiance washed over Its black dragon body, massive enough to rival an entire mountain ridge. The heavy crystalline immortal dragon scales on Its surface shattered apart, while blazing scarlet dragon blood spilled everywhere.
From afar, it became impossible to distinguish the dragon's body from the collapsing Tyrant Mountains themselves. It looked as though heaven and earth were crumbling together.
That was right.
True dragon scales possessed magic immunity and could nullify all magic below the level of Forbidden Curses. But when faced with Forbidden Curse magic, they could still be injured.
"ROOOOOAR!!"
The Black Dragon Emperor's deep and furious roar shook the heavens. The dragon's cry spread outward, exploding beside everyone's ears like an incomparably vast surge of energy. It was both an auditory and spiritual torment capable of making people lose consciousness.
Among the dozens of Super Class mages, quite a few whose spiritual realms were insufficient coughed up blood under the true dragon's roar, their faces turning pale as they fell from the sky.
A small portion of the dense black dots in the heavens withered away, wobbling like flies and mosquitoes as they slanted away from the battlefield.
The Black Dragon Emperor had suffered significant injuries and became completely berserk. The earth dragon turned over as an enormous black dragon tail rose up. Half of it hung beneath the clouds while the other half disappeared into them, violently sweeping toward the two Forbidden Curse mages in the sky.
Su Lu and Xizhe both deftly dodged aside. The dragon tail smashed the Tyrant Mountains into two pieces from the middle, kicking up smoke that rolled into the heavens as countless massive boulders scattered everywhere.
After avoiding the strike, the upper echelons of the Asian Magic Association pressed their advantage relentlessly, each unleashing destructive magic in slaughter. Torrential streams of multicolored magic poured downward three thousand feet, destroying what little terrain remained of the mountain range and scorching everything within a thousand li into blackened ruin.
The entire nation of Italy sensed the disturbance from the battle. Several Forbidden Curse mages within the country were alarmed, slowly rising into the sky with solemn expressions as they gazed toward the Tyrant Mountains. The land trembled, the sun was obscured by thick smoke and dust, and darkness descended.
Which supreme Titan Emperor was rampaging there? Could it be the Golden Titan "Apollo" had appeared? That was impossible, wasn't it?
They were utterly confused. Europe had long suffered under Titan devastation, so whenever an Emperor appeared, people instinctively suspected the Titan race. In reality, they had guessed completely wrong, it was the world's last true dragon engaged in a bloody battle.
Even so, Italy's Forbidden Curse mages did not dare approach that direction to investigate. The aftermath of Emperor-level power could kill them if they were even slightly careless. After painstakingly cultivating to the Forbidden Curse realm and standing supreme over a nation, dying like that would be far too great a loss.
At this moment, under the encirclement led by Su Lu and the Asian Magic Association, the Black Dragon repeatedly suffered grievous wounds, yet its aura became increasingly violent and enraged.
A smile curled across Su Lu's lips. This was perfect. He would slowly wear down the Black Dragon Emperor, beating it until it was half-dead before forming the contract. He had reserved the contract slot of his Summoning Forbidden Curse for many years precisely for this creature.
On the other side, Asharuiya was extremely anxious, repeatedly urging Lu Jun.
"It's time to act, isn't it? If this continues, Austin will lose."
Hearing this, Lu Jun remained unmoved and calmly replied, "I'm not Su Lu's opponent. We need to wait for the right opportunity."
Asharuiya glared at Lu Jun through clenched teeth, fury filling her eyes.
Lu Jun's thoughts were deep. An Emperor as prideful as the Black Dragon Emperor would never truly give up unless it reached the very last moment before enslavement. Letting Su Lu temper its arrogance for him was not a bad thing.
