Buzz—buzz—buzz!
In the void, Lu Jun held the Black-Gold Dragon-Patterned Sword. At the instant his Mental Invisibility failed, his entire figure flickered out of thin air, silver fragments drifting down as a faint silver formation diagram vanished.
Space–Time Element [Blink], Level Two!
He directly shifted with a large group of summoned beasts to the vicinity of the Scorpion Lord Medusa atop the mountain—capture the leader first!
Everything happened far too suddenly. The Medusa Monarch never expected that someone could break through the layered defenses of her hundred-thousand-strong scorpion-snake army and appear right before her.
The Scorpion Lord Medusa on the mountaintop had just opened her beautiful eyes when, out of the corner of her vision, a dazzling platinum sword-light burst forth, stabbing painfully into her sight. Just as she was about to react, time itself froze at that very moment.
Lu Jun moved like a roaming dragon, man and sword as one, stepping through the void. A sword strike like a flying immortal descended straight toward the Medusa Monarch's brow.
The Time Domain unfolded. Though his Space–Time cultivation was only High-Tier Level Two, with the boost of the Spiritual Heaven Realm, it was enough to freeze the Medusa Monarch for two to three seconds.
That brief window was sufficient to deliver a fatal blow.
Unfortunately, Lu Jun still underestimated the survival capabilities of a True Monarch. If the one frozen now were a human Super-tier mage without special Transcendent Power, death would have been inevitable.
But the Medusa Monarch had already opened her eyes. Her beautiful pupils instinctively burst forth with gray-white curse light, spreading in a fan-shaped sweep that covered most of the area ahead.
Lu Jun's figure was swallowed by the gray-white radiance, as if he had fallen into a bizarre black-and-white shadow world.
In the original canon's future, Medusa's mother revived as an undead; with a single opening and closing of her Curse Eyes, she petrified the entire city of Cairo—only the Eye of Space–Time could undo it.
This showed that Medusa's eyes could faintly contend with Space–Time power. As a direct descendant, the Scorpion Lord Medusa wielded the most primal might of her bloodline; resisting Lu Jun's half-baked Space–Time Element naturally disrupted the temporal freeze.
Wuuuu!
Under the gray-white glow, dark-silver light screens collapsed from all directions.
Lu Jun felt immense resistance surging toward him. From the tip of the Tai'a Divine Sword, threads of gray-white stone began to spread, threatening to extend inch by inch.
Hmph! His eyes flared with silver brilliance as vast spiritual power overflowed, forcibly stabilizing the Time Domain. At the same time, the Tai'a Divine Sword erupted with dazzling platinum radiance.
In an instant, Lu Jun's single sword shattered myriad laws. With unmatched sharpness, it cleaved through layers upon layers of gray-white curse radiance and plunged into the Scorpion Lord Medusa's head.
With a puchi sound, half of Medusa's head was nearly split apart. From her beautiful cursed snake eyes flowed horrifying bloody tears. Swept by the sword qi, her eyes were completely destroyed, two bloody hollows appearing on her mature, bewitching face.
Hiss!
The next moment, the temporal freeze failed. The Scorpion Lord Medusa Monarch broke free, letting out a shrill scream of agony. Vast demonic power burst from her body, unleashing a mountain-crushing energy tide atop the peak. Half the hill was pulverized into dust.
Buzz! Yet Lu Jun had anticipated this. His figure blurred, silver light flashing as he leapt hundreds of meters away into the void, evading Medusa's counterattack.
With the all-around amplification of the Spiritual Heaven Realm, even High-Tier spells could be cast instantly, vastly enhancing the combat value of Blink.
The Scorpion Lord Medusa was heavily injured but not dead. Her vital point was not the humanoid upper body, but the heart located in the scorpion body below, protected by thick layers of scales.
Hiss—hiss—hiss!
Enraged, the Medusa Monarch's python-hair danced wildly. Hundreds of snake pupils locked onto Lu Jun, who had just reappeared in midair, as she prepared to unleash her ultimate curse slaughter.
Before she could act, however, the Nether Serpent Undead Lord followed up. Its massive body coiled and lunged forward, wrapping Medusa tightly, loop after loop, forming a pitch-black serpent mountain.
Crack! With a single constricting motion, the ferocious black serpent lord exerted terrifying force. The void wailed, and blood seeped from the gaps between the layered coils.
At the same time, the two Great Ghost Fiends of Heaven and Earth, the Night Thunder Dream Beast, the Water Element Sacred Spirit, as well as Sister Lu Mei and the attendant Jun Yaojin, were already battling the ten commander-level serpent kings loyally guarding Medusa.
Rumble—rumble—rumble!
A riot of multicolored energy storms swept outward, engulfing countless scorpion-snake servant demons. In just a few seconds, over a thousand demons were crushed to death, flesh splattering and blood flowing like rivers.
Especially the summoned Wind-Flame-Thunder Condor flock—diving down like a vast, heavy cloudbank tilting across thousands of miles. Each one was like a roaring, crashing fighter jet, screaming past and pulverizing dozens of scorpion-snakes.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Where the giant birds passed, bloody paths of flesh were plowed into the ground behind them.
Lu Jun hovered in the sky. With a flick of the Tai'a Divine Sword, it shot straight toward the clouds. Platinum radiance flickered across the heavens, faintly prying open a corner of the Taibai Divine Treasury.
The Tai'a Sword split apart into one hundred and eight thousand flying swords, dense and boundless, countless in number and varied in form, forming a rainforest of swords, mountains of metal. Millions of golden rays tore through the sky and slashed downward.
At the peak of the mining zone, Medusa's blood-soaked body molted, shedding its skin like a cicada escaping its shell. She had just broken free from the restraints of the Nether Serpent Undead Lord Monarch when, in the very next instant, she was riddled by millions of sword auras, pierced into a sieve, flesh torn apart, deathly calamity aura coiling around her.
Lu Jun's Metal Element, enhanced by the White Tiger Pendant, erupted with double the power, its killing force terrifyingly fierce.
However, the Scorpion Lord Medusa was not so easily killed. This strike only deepened her injuries, forcing her to once again cast her metamorphic demon art.
Rip—
With a tearing sound, Medusa's shattered body split open from the center, and an identical Scorpion Lord crawled out, its entire form smeared with viscous fluid, completely intact, though its aura had plummeted to the very brink.
Immediately after, the serpent-scorpion demoness' eyes flickered with Psychic light. Her figure abruptly shrank, slipping into the vast sea of serpent-scorpion troops to hide herself—she was trying to escape!
However, Lu Jun's Super-tier Psychic Element had already marked her, locking onto her firmly.
Seeing this, his expression turned cold as he controlled the stardust. The Water Element Sacred Spirit fused with his body, the [Abyssal Sea] effect activated, and vast torrents of water vapor continuously poured out around him, forming a massive black vortex of water.
Crash!
A colossal flood erupted across the Taibai mining zone. Black seawater surged violently, submerging hills and mine tunnels alike. The dark sea appeared out of nowhere upon the withered yellow land, sweeping countless serpent-scorpion demons into its grasp and scouring several kilometers of open wilderness.
Dark clouds gathered thickly. Torrential rain and raging winds followed. Amid the unending curtain of rain, a massive black serpentine body loomed indistinctly, winding and gliding.
Within the Northern Abyss Domain, the Nether Serpent Undead Lord Monarch moved as freely as a fish in water, its speed lightning-fast. Locking onto what seemed to be an ordinary serpent-scorpion demon, it suddenly opened its blood-filled maw and bit down.
Squelch—
The Scorpion Lord Medusa was forced to reveal her true form, more than half her body swallowed into the giant serpent's jaws as she screamed madly.
Gurgle! Gurgle!
Lu Jun clenched both hands. The black sea collapsed inward, a terrifying devouring force dragging everything toward annihilation. Combined with the constricting pull of the Nether Serpent Undead Lord Monarch, Medusa could only sink little by little into the profound abyss in utter despair.
When the commotion of the black marsh finally subsided, seawater spilled outward and poured into the various mine tunnels. As the water level gradually receded, the massive corpse of the Medusa Monarch was revealed, sprawled across the damp ground.
Even in death, the overwhelming majesty of a Monarch radiated from her body, making it impossible for anyone to approach.
For a moment, the tens of thousands of serpent-scorpion demons still fighting erupted into chaos, their once endless army teetering on the brink of collapse.
