An unprecedented fury and despair instantly overwhelmed his reason!
"Ahhh—!!!"
Gray let out a beast-like roar!
He desperately channeled his remaining magic power!
"Ice Demon: Frost Starfall!"
Buzz—!!!
A colossal ice-blue meteor, over ten meters in diameter, formed instantly above Gray's head, compressed from extreme cold!
The meteor's surface was covered with grotesque demonic patterns, emanating a terrifying chill that could freeze souls!
"Die!" Gray roared, dramatically sweeping his hands downwards!
The ice-blue meteor, with a piercing shriek that tore through the air, slammed towards Hua Yuan like an act of divine punishment!
"Hmm?!" Hua Yuan's expression slightly changed as he sensed the threat of this attack!
"Hour of the Ox Descends: Immovable Wisdom King!"
Buzz—!!!
His massive body was instantly enveloped by a gigantic, dark-golden energy barrier covered in mysterious runes!
Boom—!!!!!!!!
The ice-blue meteor crashed heavily onto the barrier!
The deafening explosion almost tore eardrums!
A terrifying shockwave swept across the entire plaza!
The barrier fluctuated violently!
Its surface was instantly covered in spiderweb-like cracks!
Hua Yuan's massive body was continuously pushed back by the impact!
His feet plowed two deep furrows in the ground!
Crack!
Crackle crackle—!!!
The barrier finally buckled under the pressure and shattered with a loud bang!
The residual impact of the meteor slammed heavily into Hua Yuan's body!
"Ugh ahh—!!!"
Hua Yuan let out a cry of pain!
His massive body was sent flying backward, rolling several times on the ground before coming to a stop!
The fat on his body jiggled violently, large purplish bruises appeared on his skin, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth!
He was injured!
Although not severely, being wounded by a "brat" filled him with immense humiliation!
"Damn fellow!" Hua Yuan struggled to get up, his eyes filled with savage killing intent!
"I'll grind you into mincemeat!"
His massive body charged towards Gray again!
"Hour of the Ox Descends: Great Mountain-Shattering Fist!"
The enormous fist, carrying an aura of destruction, smashed fiercely towards Gray!
Gray's pupils constricted!
"Ice Demon: Ice Crystal Barrier!"
A thick ice crystal wall instantly formed!
Boom—!!!
The Ice Wall was shattered like paper!
The giant fist continued its momentum unabated!
Gray had no time to dodge!
He could only cross his arms to protect his chest!
Bang—!!!
Gray was hit as if by a high-speed train!
He was sent flying backward like a broken kite!
Crack! Crack!
Clear sounds of bones breaking rang out!
Gray's sternum and arm bones were broken in countless places!
He crashed heavily onto the ground dozens of meters away, rolling several times before stopping!
Blood gushed from his mouth, mixed with fragments of internal organs!
The demonic patterns on his body flickered violently, his half-demonized state barely holding on!
Excruciating pain engulfed him like a tide!
If not for the powerful recovery brought by his demonization forcefully sustaining him, that one punch would have been enough to kill him!
"Lord Gray!" Juvia let out an extremely shrill scream, seeing Lord Gray severely wounded and on the verge of death!
A surge of wild magic power, mixed with endless sorrow, towering rage, and despair, erupted from within her body!
"Ahhh—!!! Those who hurt Lord Gray... must die!!!"
"Flood of Love: World-Ending Deluge!"
"Lord Gray—!!!" Juvia let out an extremely shrill scream, seeing Lord Gray's tragic state!
Her heart felt as if it had been torn apart!
An unprecedented surge of wild magic power, mixed with endless sorrow and towering rage, erupted from within her body!
"Ahhh—!!!"
Juvia's eyes were instantly filled with pure blue light! Her aqua-blue hair danced wildly without wind!
"Those who hurt Lord Gray... must die!!!"
"Flood of Love: World-Ending Deluge!"
Juvia suddenly spread her hands wide!
Boom—!!!
The ground of the entire plaza shook violently!
Countless massive water pillars burst forth from the ground!
Shooting straight into the sky!
The sky instantly became covered in dark clouds!
Torrential rain poured down as if the Milky Way had overturned!
The raging water instantly converged into a colossal, world-destroying deluge!
Carrying Juvia's endless rage and sorrow, it charged fiercely towards Kawarazu Seeker like a roaring dragon!
"What?!" Kawarazu Seeker's expression slightly changed!
The power of this water flow far surpassed before!
He dared not be negligent!
"Hour of the Ox Descends: Immovable Wisdom King!"
Buzz—!!!
His massive body was like a tree rooted to the earth!
The dark-golden light surged!
Forming a huge golden barrier!
Boom—!!!
The World-Ending Deluge crashed heavily onto the golden barrier!
The terrifying impact made the entire plaza tremble!
The golden barrier fluctuated violently!
Cracks appeared on its surface!
Kawarazu Seeker's massive body was continuously pushed back by the impact!
His feet plowed two deep ravines in the ground!
"Roar—!!!" Hua Yuan roared, desperately holding on!
Juvia's explosive force made him feel pressure!
"Die for me!" Juvia, looking deranged, suddenly pushed her hands forward!
Boom—!!!
The impact of the deluge surged again!
Crack! Crackle crackle—!!!
The golden barrier finally buckled under the pressure and shattered with a loud bang!
The raging flood slammed fiercely into Kawarazu Seeker's massive body!
"Ugh ahh—!!!"
Hua Yuan let out a cry of pain!
As if struck by a giant hammer!
His massive body was sent flying backward! Rolling on the ground like a huge ball!
The fat on his body jiggled violently, his skin was sore from the impact of the water, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth!
"Damn woman!" Hua Yuan struggled to get up, his eyes filled with savage killing intent!
"I'll crush you into a pulp!"
However, Juvia's outburst was short-lived.
That last attack had almost completely exhausted all her magic power!
The deluge quickly receded.
Juvia's face was ashen, her body swaying precariously, finding it difficult even to stand.
"Now's the time!" A cunning glint flashed in Hua Yuan's eyes!
He suddenly pulled out a palm-sized, straw doll made of straw, adorned with strange runes, from his embrace!
"Hour of the Ox Descends: Curse Medium!"
He dipped his finger in a bit of his own blood from the corner of his mouth and quickly drew a symbol on the straw doll!
At the same time, with his other hand, he grabbed at the lingering water on the ground that belonged to Juvia!
A few drops of water containing Juvia's magic power were drawn to him and dripped onto the straw doll!
Buzz—!!!
The straw doll instantly glowed with an eerie red light!
An invisible, malevolent curse power instantly connected the straw doll to Juvia in the distance!
"Ugh..." Juvia's body suddenly trembled!
As if pricked by an invisible needle!
A cold chill instantly invaded her soul!
"Hahaha!" Kawarazu Seeker let out a cruel laugh, "Got you!"
He extended his thick finger and fiercely bent the arm of the straw doll!
Crack!
"Ah—!!!" Juvia let out a shrill scream!
An intense pain instantly shot through her left arm!
As if the bone had truly been broken!
She collapsed to her knees in pain, cold sweat instantly soaking her clothes!
"Juvia!" Gray, severely wounded in the distance, saw this scene and his eyes were bloodshot with fury!
He struggled to get up, but again spat out a mouthful of blood!
"It's not over yet!" Hua Yuan sneered, his finger again aimed at the abdomen of the straw doll, and he fiercely poked it!
Pfft!
"Ugh ahh—!!!" A tearing pain instantly shot through Juvia's abdomen!
As if pierced by a sharp blade!
She writhed on the ground in pain, her body convulsing violently, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth!
"Stop it!!!" Gray let out a desperate roar!
"Hahaha! Suffer! Wail!" Kawarazu Seeker, like a beast toying with its prey, his face filled with morbid excitement, "This is the consequence of offending Grimoire Heart!"
He raised his finger again, aiming at the heart position of the straw doll, about to fiercely stab down!
If that strike landed, Juvia's heart would likely be instantly pierced by the curse power!
Just at this critical moment!
"Stop—!!!"
