Selena commanded the four-legged dragon, swiftly retreating with a group of Life Court wizards from the floating island. The silver-haired witch beside her stepped forward, just about to say something, but was halted by Selena raising a hand. Selena had already regained her calm at this point, and the outline of armor appearing on her body gradually faded into obscurity. She stared at the suddenly erupting battlefield in the distance, her beautiful eyes flickering, murmuring softly, "It seems he wants to establish his might through Fuming Ge." The Golden Flame Blade splashed across the void, creating a mesmerizing and dreamlike Golden Era, accompanied by the Fire Gold Song. The asphalt-like golden flames rolled into waves, and the enormous Red Jade Fire Ring spread out in circles. Fuming Ge seemed like a fly jolting around in the golden tsunami. His pale, handsome face was now filled with coldness and anger, appearing rather distressed, surrounded by waves of dark energy. Fuming Ge suddenly growled, stretching his long fingers outward. On his slender fingers, twenty Obsidian Magic Rings flashed with purple light, blinking like eerie eyes. Immediately following, a huge dark energy ring condensed outside his body. The ring solidified, countless purple runes covering its surface, swiftly expanding as soon as it was summoned. Before the dark purple ring fully expanded, the terrifying golden blade of flames slashed down. The blade clashed with the ring, producing sounds akin to metal clashing, then fell into a brief stalemate. Fuming Ge’s face was solemn as water, rapidly chanting spells while mobilizing his spiritual power belonging to a Level 5 Wizard, coldly looking at the figure on the back of the Thunder Eagle. As the dark purple ring was about to lift the blade, the figure standing before the Golden Throne remained emotionless, the blue gemstone-like eyes beneath the Dawn Mask suddenly transforming into two peculiar whirlpools of ice intertwining with fire. An immense spiritual power erupted from him, soaring skyward. In an instant, it seemed as though countless Golden Celestial Bodies appeared, swirling and colliding around the figure in the Platinum Robe, ultimately exploding with stellar-like brilliance. On the back of the Ancient Thunder Eagle, it was as if a golden sun rose! The terrifying spiritual power brought even greater spell amplification. The Golden Flame Blade, originally contending with the dark purple ring, suddenly expanded several times its size, exceeding the span of one wing of the Ancient Thunder Eagle. The soaring Fire Gold Song suddenly became extremely high-pitched, the entire land filled with metal-like rapid trembling sounds, with asphalt-like golden flames cascading down like a tidal wave from the sky. The frightening blade light swept through, the epic scenery of the Golden Era unfurled in front of everyone, stretching from the center of the battlefield all the way to the distant edge of the Wind Plain. Fuming Ge’s ash-colored eyes opened wide, lighting up with countless spark-like luminous points, his tightly pressed lips parted, unable to make any astonished expression before the dark purple ring around his body silently shattered under the blade light. Fuming Ge’s face and figure twisted simultaneously, like a wisp of black smoke, being melted into the dazzling golden flame light.... In the distance, the wizards of the Life Court, witnessing this scene firsthand, instinctively drew in cold breaths, almost unable to believe their eyes. Selena was also stunned, her exquisitely beautiful face falling momentarily into a daze. She had tolerated Fuming Ge’s rudeness and ambition because of his strength. As the most exceptional genius of the Elemental Magic Ring generation, during the "Hunting Bow" trials hosted by the Life Court, Fuming Ge single-handedly elevated the Elemental Magic Ring to the level comparable to super large wizard forces. He even suppressed numerous top Level 5 wizard geniuses from super large forces in direct one-on-one duels during the trials, ranking among the top five in the Hunting Bow trials. Fuming Ge was completely suppressed in a frontal confrontation by someone whose strength was a full major realm lower than his. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝕟𝕖𝕥 This was simply...unbelievable. Selena murmured the name again, gradually blooming with strands of dazzling light in her beautiful eyes. Ancient incantations echoed from one end of the battlefield. Fuming Ge, with a body in an elemental form, reappeared in another position, having been melted by the golden blade light. He now had black hair hanging like ink, his facial features and exposed skin pale like the cold moon, dark magic patterns crawling and writhing on his skin like snakes. Behind him, a huge black disk appeared. This was a peculiar array. Within the black disk, varying shades of black rings rotated in different directions like gears, thick black smoke rising from Fuming Ge, massive amounts of dark energy surging from the disk like a flood, boosting Fuming Ge’s presence skyward... As his presence reached its peak, the black energy glow from the disk spread like murky water, covering swathes of golden flames. Fuming Ge quietly raised his head, gazing at the young figure atop the distant Thunder Eagle. His ash-colored eyes brimming with chilling ruthlessness, he spat out cold words through gritted teeth. Selena’s eyes twinkled slightly; she stealthily took two steps forward. This was the power of Fuming Ge’s Inheritance Array, something she had witnessed more than once during the Hunting Bow trials. Though the Elemental Magic Ring was merely a large wizard force, the special nature of its magic inheritance meant its spell power could theoretically rival the foundation of super large wizard forces. And Fuming Ge, he had pushed this capability to the maximum, a monstrous genius. Selena knew of Fuming Ge’s strength, thus focusing more of her gaze on his rival. At this time, the young figure wearing the Dawn Mask, facing the display of Fuming Ge’s power, showed no sign of emotion in those blue eyes. He simply made a simple gesture—his right hand gently rising. Immediately, the magnificent Golden Flame Blade in the sky rapidly crumbled, transforming back into countless fragmentary note-like pieces, darting into the sky like flocks of golden doves. The sky of the Wind Plain became completely filled with rich golden color. The golden clouds rolled heavily like lead weight, emitting radiant patterns resembling Red Jade and even more pure, translucent golden light. The omnipresent singing did not vanish but grew grander, ephemeral, as if cascading from a far celestial height, praising a supreme existence.... Selena suddenly felt her cheek itch. She instinctively reached up to scratch, catching a small sheet, resembling golden shattered leaves, in her fingers, gently crushing, transforming it into a dazzling cluster of golden spark. When she raised her head, realizing— Under the heavy leaden golden cloud sea, the void was unexpectedly filled with countless golden fragments like feathers, akin to light or withered leaves. Behind the cloud sea, it seemed an immensely terrifying existence, inexpressible and vast, silently cast its gaze downward through the clouds. At this moment, everyone present, including Selena, felt an overwhelming, soul-shaking awe, almost compelled to kneel in reverent worship from sheer terror.
