Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

But now, this sudden hope has filled him with extraordinary excitement!

After all, this was his dream back then!

"Ancient Demonic Sect - National Beast!"

At the very moment the magic was completed, Pang Lai's beard flew wildly, and his aged body seemed to be rejuvenated with a vibrant life force, solemn, tall, and even like a god standing on the city gate!

Above the vast mountains, a black abyss slowly devoured the surrounding space. Before long, the entire sky above the Blue Galaxy Valley became part of this black abyss. People standing on the ground felt as if they could be thrown into the deeper depths by the strange chaotic patterns of the black abyss at any moment!

At the bottom of that abyss, a pair of eyes slowly opened, gazing at the valley from another dimensional plane through the tunnel of the abyss, at the Yamata no Orochi, and at the demon army that filled the valley like a tide!

It was as if the silhouette of an ancient demon god had suddenly appeared in the dark night sky—a silhouette so indistinct that the only clear feature was its pair of divine eyes that could pierce through time and space…

Cao Le stared at the other person quietly, and was also taken aback when he sensed the other person's presence.

This beast of destruction is actually close to the level of a ruler or emperor!?

No wonder he looked down on Pang Lai...

Even a forbidden spellcaster might not be able to summon an emperor of this caliber, right?

The reason why Pang Lai was able to persuade the other party was probably because it was something he had been seeking for many years!

The divine eye grew larger and larger, until it filled the entire Black Abyss.

The entire Blue Galaxy Valley was inexplicably deathly silent; time seemed to stand still, to the point that even sound could not travel...

"Buzz~~~~"

A spatial fluctuation emanated, and the eight-headed serpent, after being stared at, was instantly covered in wounds!

To suffer such an attack from just a single glance clearly demonstrates the opponent's formidable skill.

The Yamata no Orochi felt the gaze upon it was being held, and sensed its life slipping away. It was utterly powerless against the oppressive force of a ruler approaching the level of an emperor!

From its initial domineering and arrogant demeanor to its current fearful and apprehensive state, resembling a wild rat being chased by a stick, it's clear that Orochi is terrified. Not only was it completely defeated in terms of power by the creature from the Black Abyss's Beast Tomb, but it was also brutally trampled upon in terms of its inherent racial hierarchy.

Even Pang Lai himself hadn't anticipated this.

He never imagined that the beast of a fallen kingdom he had been communicating with would be such a powerful being!

No wonder I've always ignored him!

emperor...

This was a powerful emperor...

For so many years, he searched for the supreme holy spirit within the Beast Tomb of a Fallen Kingdom, and through his piety and perseverance, he finally reached a small agreement to invite it to battle...

That's right, this is no longer a summoning; it's a wish.

It is high above, mysterious and unpredictable; it fulfills one of its wishes: to eliminate the enemy before it.

To truly bring it down and make it fight for you, more than a decade of sincerity and perseverance is far from enough. Is it because you lack strength, sincerity, or both?

"Buzz~~~~"

After another moment of contemplation, the Yamata no Orochi died.

There is absolutely no possibility of resurrection.

Its several heads were scattered in different places, still ferocious and menacing. Its body had turned into countless pieces of flesh, covering the valley and the nearby mountains.

Blood was everywhere, flowing from the high ground to the low-lying areas, accumulating in a sunken pit, seeping into the soft soil, as if it had just been washed by a torrential rain, except that this rain was red.

The sirens were utterly terrified. Even an invincible creature like the Yamata no Orochi had been annihilated; how could they possibly have the courage to step into the valley...?

Pang Lai destroyed the Yamata no Orochi, but in doing so, he also exhausted all his summoning magic power, leaving him somewhat depleted.

"Good heavens, old Pang Lai, what you just summoned was actually an emperor who was about to reach the level of a ruler!!" Cao Le said.

"The ruler/emperor?"

Pang Lai paused...

Besides the three roof ridges, he had also heard that there were ten emperors at the level of rulers in the world!

That is a being that surpasses even emperors!

Although the Beast of Demise had not yet reached that level, Cao Le still gave Pang Lai a boost of encouragement.

Upon hearing what Cao Le said, Pang Lai looked like he was about to burst into tears: "No wonder... no wonder I haven't been able to move it all these years!"

He himself hadn't expected the other party to be so powerful!

"Pyrim!!!"

Just then, the Divine Bird of Chongming spread its wings and carried Cao Le and Pang Lai directly into the sky.

The Divine Bird of Chongming was engulfed in intense flames, but it did not harm Cao Le or Pang Lai in the slightest.

"Won't this affect the plan?" Pang Lai asked, somewhat puzzled, as Cao Le summoned the Chongming Divine Bird.

"No, because the other party is about to come out..." Cao Le replied.

Pang Lai was still somewhat puzzled...

"Rumble rumble rumble~~~~~~~~"

Just then, the earth suddenly trembled violently, and the distant mountains inexplicably rose higher, as if they were growing.

The sea level began to recede significantly, revealing a vast expanse of muddy beach that stretched for tens of kilometers. The blue sea, which was once clearly visible, seemed to have been sucked away by some immense force, and the seawater receded further and further away.

The mountains are still rising, as if the entire island is being carried up by something.

The tremors grew stronger and stronger, so strong that the buildings throughout the city began to sink straight into the cracks in the earth.

The air was inexplicably exploding, and many manta rays and sailfish tried to escape the terrifying tremor, only to disintegrate into blood droplets mid-air, blooming horribly like blood roses everywhere...

The mountains rose slowly, but the shocking cracks caused by the vibrations and compression were very clear. Several enormous fissures, more than several kilometers wide, spanned numerous mountains, forests, beaches, and cities on the island of Hawaii. Most terrifyingly, they had risen to a height of thousands of meters in the air!

Pang Lai was stunned for a moment. Although he knew there was an emperor present, and that the emperor was also injured, he hadn't expected the emperor to possess such formidable power...

At that moment, it seemed as if the sky had suddenly turned dark, and a dark, demonic shadow stood on the gloomy horizon, its claws reaching out like a black cloud that could cover a mountain!

At that moment, ripples appeared in the space in front of them, and then a man wearing a military overcoat appeared before them.

With black hair, a black beard, and eyes of pure, unadulterated blackness, he exuded unwavering resolve and composure when facing the Black Claw Emperor behind the scenes!

Cao Le had originally planned to take action, but since Hua Zhanhong had appeared, he decided against it.

In Hua Junshou's eyes, there was only the dark claws of the emperor behind the scenes.

The Black Claw Emperor behind the scenes was furious. Being locked on by such a tiny human was as if trying to escape was a huge disgrace.

"How did you find out about his plan?" Pang Lai asked Cao Le curiously.

"It's simple. Even Parthenon's healing mage can't heal remotely. If he were truly seriously injured, he wouldn't have sent you all to help. Of course, I'm not saying he's afraid of death, but he understands the responsibility he bears, and because of that, I think he wouldn't put himself in danger..."

"And that's because of this guy. Its existence is a real threat to the dam. Back in Shanghai, I wanted to get rid of it, but unfortunately... it got away. I know it's a huge danger, and of course, it knows it too."

After hearing what Cao Le said, Pang Lai nodded.

The plan for this trip was flawless.

The only mistake was that we didn't expect there to be a cardinal in the group!

Fortunately, Cao Le noticed the other party!

Otherwise, this could indeed ruin Hua Zhanhong's plan.

At this moment, as Hua Zhanhong moved forward, the mastermind behind the scenes, with nowhere left to retreat, unleashed a black roar. It was not the seawater that had been dyed black, but a giant tide of sea ants composed of countless queen ants.

With the space where Hua Zhanhong stood as the boundary, the Dragon King Ant Tide, which surged to the sky, was originally meant to devour everything, but it crumbled wildly in front of Hua Junshou. There was only a faint white light on his body, like the morning light, but this white light was gradually dispelling the darkness that had dominated the whole night!

"Old Pang Lai, you go and meet up with Jiang Yu and the others first. I'll go pick him up." Cao Le knew Hua Zhanhong would be fine, but you never know what might happen.

Jiang Yu and the others who had been hiding had appeared. They were all staring blankly at this scene. Most importantly, the healing scroll was clearly in their hands, but Hua Zhanhong had made his move.

Everyone was somewhat confused...

But then I think I understand a little better!

Behind the scenes, the Black Claw Emperor's dark, forest-covering body is not its original enormous sea beast form, but rather a giant fortress formed by tightly stitched together black, carapace-like dragon king ants, creating a freely movable ant nest!

It can be said that the opponent is simply a composite of countless dragon king ants.

Pang Lai nodded without hesitation and said, "Go ahead and rest assured, my old bones can still hold up."

For China, Hua Zhanhong is undoubtedly the most important person. Pang Lai is simply no match for him.

China can do without the strongest summoning mage, but it absolutely cannot do without the Great General who protects the nation. He came here hoping to help, even if it means sacrificing himself!

Twenty taels of silver is a small amount, but in modern terms it would be worth eight to ten thousand yuan.

Currently, an ordinary soldier in the Great Yu Dynasty earns at most one tael of silver per month, while a centurion earns three taels of silver per month.

Maybe he'll accept it.

In addition, Qin Hu also planned to make a big promise to Li Xiaokun, after all, Qin Hu used to have plenty of money.

Now it all depends on whether he and Qin An can make it through the night.

"Young Master, I might not make it. I'm so hungry, and my hands and feet are frozen stiff," Qin An mumbled groggily.

"Xiao Anzi, Xiao Anzi, hold on, hold on! You can't stay still. Get up and run. That's the only way to survive."

In fact, Qin Hu himself was in a tough spot. Although he was a special forces soldier in his previous life, this body was not the same as his previous one. All he had now was an indomitable spirit.

"Wait!"

Qin Hu's eyes were like cold stars. He suddenly called out in a low voice. A reflection of light that had appeared a dozen meters away from the camp, along with a rustling sound, alerted him.

With the professional instincts of a special reconnaissance soldier, he felt that it was the enemy.

But should we notify Li Xiaokun?

Qin Hu hesitated. What if he was mistaken? After all, his current physical condition was vastly different from before.

If a false alarm causes a night terror or a riot, giving someone a pretext to kill him, he could be killed with a legitimate reason.

"Xiao Anzi, hand me the bow and arrows."

Qin Hu lay prostrate beneath the carriage shaft and whispered.

But Qin An's next sentence startled him so much that he almost jumped up.

"Bow and arrow, what is a bow and arrow?"
