Versatile Mage: Shadow of Dimension

"I've always been curious about where your dimensional abilities came from. The first Shadow King didn't have such abilities, otherwise he wouldn't have been so badly destroyed." The Queen of Jingjue asked curiously, looking at the four Dark Kings who were standing still.

“It’s innate; you can’t learn it,” Zhang Chenran said.

The Queen of Jingjue snorted coldly. If she could learn it, would she be following Zhang Chenran like a captive now?!
"What are you going to do?"

"Naturally, we should start by tackling the weakest one."

"."

The weakest of the four Dark Lords is naturally the God of War!
The Witch God's cultivation level was only at the early stage of the Roof Emperor, and the faith power provided by the dark army he brought was completely insufficient.

Because He and the other three kings were located within Zhang Chenran's territory!

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

The sorcerer god was shrouded in an aura of curse, like a light black barrier. He was only slightly taller than an ordinary human, with a very slender figure.

A dimensional spear, its colors blending into the dimensional energy realm, flew through the air ahead. The Witch God, relying on his spiritual perception, hurriedly dodged.

His eyes blazed with a blood-red curse, corrupting the dimensional spear. The originally colorless spear turned completely blood-red and was held in the hands of the sorcerer god.

Suddenly, that terrifying aura came, and He turned around sharply to stare at what was behind Him.

Zhang Chenran appeared behind him without him even noticing!
The Witch God was shocked. He had clearly traveled tens of thousands of miles, so how could Zhang Chenran have arrived in an instant?!

The Witch God activated his spiritual perception, but could not sense the presence of the other three Dark Kings.

Whether the three of them abandoned him and ran away, or were blocked by Zhang Chenran, it's certain that Zhang Chenran's first target was him!
The Witch God wouldn't be foolish enough to imagine that Zhang Chenran would let him go; only a desperate fight would offer him a sliver of hope.
The slender body of the sorcerer god transformed into a strange shadow and crashed into the black barrier that enveloped him.

In an instant, the black mist spread out like ink droplets on water.

Strange black clouds appeared in the dimensional realm, covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of feet.

Zhang Chenran's figure was less than an ant under the towering black clouds.

“No wonder I couldn’t tell what kind of dark species you were; it turns out you don’t even have a form,” Zhang Chenran couldn’t help but say.

The true form of the witch god was nothing more than a cloud of cursed mist that had come to possess sentience.

This is similar to the spirit of the misty sea that Zhang Chenran subdued in the far south. The difference is that the Witch God is an innate spirit, rather than a spirit of the misty sea that gained intelligence due to lingering resentment.

The innate spirits of the Dark Dimension are extremely pure, several levels higher than the status of the Elemental Holy Spirits in the Magic Dimension!

It's not surprising that such a being could cultivate to the level of the Rooftop Emperor.
"Shadow King, I am not a useless emperor like the Spirit Curse King who only climbed to the top of the throne through faith and the origin of the throne. Let me go, otherwise it will not benefit anyone if we fight to the death!"

The voice of the sorcerer god came from the bottomless black mist in the sky, like the hellish howl of a vengeful ghost.

"Only the fish die, not the net breaks." A phantom image of a blazing divine eye appeared behind Zhang Chenran.

The phantom of the Holy Spirit Yulai stood above the Eye of God, like a great sun, radiating pure and majestic divine light that dispelled all darkness.

When dealing with a primordial spirit like the Witch God, light is the best way to counter it!

Those who once tried to use the power of light to deal with the creatures of the Witch God were all suppressed by the Witch God's immense dark power.

But this time, the power of light from the Holy Spirit Yulai illuminated the entire southern region of the Dark Dimension.

Even in other regions, this pure and majestic light can be seen, rising from the south like a blazing sun, illuminating the entire dark land!
"Ughh ...

The sorcerer god let out a strange wail, and all spirits trembled in fear.

“You might be able to resist a little in your own land, but this is my world! You are no different from an ant!” Zhang Chenran stretched out his hand towards the towering black clouds in the sky.

The entire Southern Region, shrouded by the dimensional energy realm, seemed to have given birth to its own life, and a giant hand, large enough to cover ten thousand feet of black clouds, reached out from the sky and slammed down!
The sorcerer god was instantly suppressed, and the Holy Spirit of Light, Yulai, activated the Blazing Eye of Light, spreading even more power of light.

Under the suppression of the dimensional realm and the erosion of the power of light, the true form of this Dark King gradually faded away, returning to that black mist.

Zhang Chenran seized the opportunity, controlled the Witch God, locked onto the Dark Throne in its soul, and forcefully pulled it out!
This throne contains the life's cultivation of the sorcerer god; without it, the sorcerer god would truly be like an ant.

Zhang Chenran casually annihilated it.
..............................

The other three kings were completely unaware of the fall of the Witch God, because the space they occupied had been sealed off by Zhang Chenran.

They will not realize that they are standing still for a short time, nor will they realize that their companions are dead.

Chi Gu King and Zhu Zhao King are of similar strength.

Zhang Chenran chose the latter as his second target!
The King of Candlelight has a body that resembles both a snake and a dragon, covered in red scales. His face is somewhat similar to that of a human, but he is also extremely evil and ugly.

Like the Chi Gu King, he possessed the strength of a mid-stage Roof Emperor, yet he was still no match for Zhang Chenran.
King Zhuzhao suddenly stopped, staring intently at the void in front of him.

The world before my eyes has undergone earth-shattering changes, stained by a blood-red inferno, like the deepest abyss!

A divine light flashed in the eyes of the Candle King, and his divine power to influence heaven and earth suddenly failed.

"An illusion? No, no, he has absolute control over this world!" King Zhuzhao felt uneasy.

Within Zhang Chenran's dimensional energy realm, His divine powers had absolutely no effect!
Zhang Chenran's figure suddenly appeared in the void in front of him, his body covered with baleful aura, and a ferocious beast soul shadow with tiger wings appeared behind him.

"Qiongqi?!" King Zhuzhao's pupils contracted sharply.

The ancient ferocious beast before them was gradually materializing, no longer a mere illusion.

Zhang Chenran inherited the power of the first generation of Shadow King Qiongqi, and now he has mastered all the supernatural powers of the Dimensional Godhead, which he can manifest at any time.

Now, Zhang Chenran has transformed into not only the ancient ferocious beast Qiongqi, but has also reached the true peak realm of the Roof Emperor!
"suppress!"

Zhang Chenran activated the dimensional energy realm, suppressing the Candle King with all his might, and transformed into the ferocious Qiongqi beast, pouncing on him like a vicious wolf.

To end it in the most savage and primitive way, in the way that makes the Candle King feel the most frustrated.
..............................

The Chi Gu King's true form is a hundred feet tall, surrounded by purple poisonous gas. This poisonous gas is its power source, propelling it through hundreds of millions of miles of space.

The poison that permeated His body was also a part of His life!

As you can see, the space of the dimensional energy realm is constantly being devoured by these poisonous gases, and then repaired at an extremely fast speed!

"Where does this energy come from? Damn it, even if he refined the entire Southern Region, he shouldn't be able to trap me here!" Chi Gu King was filled with fear and unease.

Just now, when Zhang Chenran released the entire domain of the dimensional energy realm to suppress the Candle King, the surrounding spatial laws loosened, and the Chi Gu King thus discovered that he had been tricked into standing still.

This second-generation Shadow King intends to kill them one by one!

Given Zhang Chenran's current level of cultivation, killing them all is only a matter of time.

Unfortunately, the spatial laws of the Yuanqi Realm have reached a point where even the Dark King Chi Gu cannot resolve them! Chi Gu King has the means to shatter this space, but behind the space is still a continuous stream of dimensional power, and he cannot lock the space and escape this dimensional world!

The Chi Gu King had no idea what level Zhang Chenran's mastery of the dimensional realm had reached, given that he could create such a vast dimensional world!
Even if the Asura King himself were to appear, he would likely be powerless against him.
"Sorry to keep you waiting!" Zhang Chenran's voice suddenly echoed through the heavens and earth.

Chi Gu King's heart trembled violently, and unease flashed in his eyes as he suppressed all his fear.

"Hide your head and tail, come out!" the Chi Gu King said in a deep voice.

Zhang Chenran's figure slowly emerged from the void in front of the Chi Gu King, looking at him with a mocking expression.

"Where are those two, the Witch God and the Candlelight?" King Chi Gu demanded.

Zhang Chenran raised his hand, and two miniature phantom images of the Dark Throne floated in his palm. He smiled and said:

"Give me your chair too."

Chi Gu King's face was grim. Zhu Zhao King and He were of similar strength. Since Zhang Chenran could defeat Zhu Zhao King in a short time, he could also defeat He.

At this moment, a series of booming sounds came from the space not far away, as if a mirror was being shattered and then stitched back together again and again!

Zhang Chenran looked over, frowned slightly, and with a wave of his hand, that space shattered instantly.

A hundred-foot-tall figure, radiating golden light and resembling a human, entered this space.

King of Buddha!
This Dark King, in the later stages of the Rooftop Emperor realm, had just been relentlessly assaulting the laws of the dimensional space with his savage physical body.

It was only a matter of time before He shattered the space, so Zhang Chenran chose to let Him in voluntarily.
"I knew it." King Futu's words revealed a hint of exasperation.

Upon seeing the two thrones in Zhang Chenran's hands, he was even more enraged!

In this short period of time, two of the four kings were killed by Zhang Chenran.

Even the Floating Pagoda King in the later stages of the Rooftop Emperor's reign needed the right timing, location, and people to kill the Witch God who had no faith or territorial laws in a short time.

Although the Buddha King appeared extremely angry, he was beginning to feel fear in his heart.

The human before us, who inherited the legacy of the first Shadow King Qiongqi, is even more terrifying than Qiongqi!
“Let’s leave here together!” King Futu said to King Chigu.

"it is good."

The two kings' exchange was concise, yet it made Zhang Chenran laugh.

"What kind of time is this to still be having such a pipe dream?" Zhang Chenran sneered.

The colossal body of the Buddha King arrived in an instant, appearing before Zhang Chenran, and his giant fist, radiating golden light, slammed down.

"Get lost." Zhang Chenran's eyes gleamed with a silver light.

The Buddha King seemed to be shaken apart by an immense force. His hundred-foot-tall body flew backward for a hundred miles, shattering the space he crashed into, only to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The King of Chi Gu was so shocked by this scene that he dared not move. He hesitated in his hand, holding the purple poison explosion, without the courage to throw it.

Zhang Chenran didn't even glance at him, instantly disappearing from his spot and appearing above the Floating Pagoda King a hundred miles away.
"I am the law of this world. What makes you think you can leave?" Zhang Chenran said with a condescending smile, his contempt undisguised.

This Dark King, a figure from the later years of the Rooftop Emperor, was like an ant in his eyes!
"Shadow King!!!" King Futu roared angrily, his body radiating dazzling golden light.

The golden light transformed into ethereal silken energy, gradually coalescing into a tower-like structure, a thousand meters tall, which protected the Buddha King at its very center.

Zhang Chenran made a pinch in the air, and it was as if an invisible giant hand reached out from the dimensional energy realm and grasped the tower that was a thousand meters tall.

As Zhang Chenran exerted force with his five fingers, the golden pagoda visibly twisted and shattered, with shocking cracks appearing on its surface, as if it were about to explode at any moment.

The power of the giant spatial hand grew stronger and stronger, and the pagoda reached its limit, turning into golden fragments that shattered in this world.

Zhang Chenran also held the hundred-foot-tall body of the Floating Pagoda King in his hand. At this moment, the Floating Pagoda King seemed to be suppressed by the entire world and could not breathe.

This world is rejecting His existence and trying to completely annihilate Him!

In the end, the Floating King let out a defiant roar and was crushed into dust by Zhang Chenran's dimensional domain.

Having achieved physical sainthood, the Buddha King, second only to the Asura King, perished, and his throne was taken by Zhang Chenran.

Even the final Chi Gu King was powerless to reverse the situation. Zhang Chenran didn't give it a chance to utter a single word, easily annihilating it by merging into the dimensional energy realm.
Four phantom images of dark thrones appeared in Zhang Chenran's outstretched hand.

The Queen of Jingjue stepped out from the space behind him and saw the miniature throne phantom in his hand. Her expression changed, and she couldn't be happy for a moment.

This guy's power far exceeded her expectations; it seemed she would truly have to submit forever.
"To be able to eliminate four Dark Kings, whose cultivation was already at the Roof Emperor level, in such a short time, I'm afraid no one can stop you now," the Queen of Jingjue said, puzzled.

"What should we do next? Refine these dark elements?"

Zhang Chenran nodded slightly:
"Well, although I am confident in dealing with the Asura King, after absorbing the dark essence of these four kings, my dark body alone will reach its current level. At that time, the outcome will be no longer in doubt."

Zhang Chenran now needs to merge his dimensional body and dark body to reach the peak of the late stage of the Roof Emperor.

If the two bodies were separated, they would both be late-stage rooftop emperors, at the same level as the Buddha King.

After absorbing the dark essence of the thrones of these four Dark Kings, Zhang Chenran was certain that he could reach the peak of the late stage of the Roof Emperor realm simply by relying on his Dark Body.

During this period, the dimensional body can also return to the magical plane to further solidify its realm.

With the aid of the six divine eyes in cultivation, one might even be able to reach the peak of the later stages.

At that time, even against the Asura King, who had long since reached the pinnacle of power, Zhang Chenran was confident of victory.
"Alright, send me some people. I'll go and salvage all of these old men's assets during this time," Queen Jingjue said with delight.

She had long disliked those Dark Kings, and now that they were dead, the creatures and resources of those Dark Kingdoms were a great fortune!

“Okay, we’ll split it 20/80, you get 20% and I get 80%,” Zhang Chenran nodded and said.

The Queen of Jingjue frowned slightly.
"I've given you my entire essence, and you're only giving me 20%?!"

“That’s the property of four Dark Kings. Giving you even a tenth of that is already a profit. Besides, you also took over the palace of the Spirit Curse King before,” Zhang Chenran said irritably.

The Queen of Jingjue snorted coldly; it seemed she hadn't gotten much benefit from Zhang Chenran.

“Being so stingy with your woman, you must be quite annoying in the magical world too,” she said.

Zhang Chenran scoffed:
"A toad trying to eat swan meat, you want to be my woman? I won't accept it."

He slept with me, had his fun, and then turned his back on me. That bastard! The Queen of Jingjue glared at him fiercely. She couldn't win an argument, and she couldn't beat him in a fight. She was incredibly frustrated.

While the two were flirting, a dramatic change was taking place in the Northern Region. (End of Chapter)
