In the blink of an eye, another four months passed.
Along the outskirts of the five major coastal base cities, more than half of the coastline had been consumed over the past six months.
The Sea Demons had failed to win the war.
They had failed to seize humanity's territory through battle.
Yet, carried by the unstoppable momentum of the rising seas, they effortlessly expanded their living space.
On this day, a Mage patrolling atop the seawall outside Magic City suddenly looked toward the distant horizon.
His expression changed drastically.
A thin white line emerged from the horizon and rapidly expanded, rushing toward them in the blink of an eye.
It was a world-ending tidal wave that swept across the Nine Heavens.
Boundless pale waves rose layer upon layer, surging from the depths of the Pacific with the power to shake heaven and earth and overturn both sea and land.
When it finally drew near, it rose into an enormous pale curtain that blotted out the sky.
There wasn't the slightest gap to be seen.
The tidal wall stretched all the way into the clouds.
The sheer visual impact and instinctive terror it inspired far exceeded anything ordinary people could imagine.
Within the pale tsunami, countless black specks could already be seen.
They densely covered the rolling wall of water.
Those were the heads of countless Sea Demons.
The tidal wave was at least a hundred thousand meters high.
It towered over the majestic seawall fortress, casting a monstrous shadow over more than half of Magic City.
It resembled a gigantic demonic hand reaching out from the depths of the Pacific, slamming down upon humanity's insignificant city.
The sight was utterly breathtaking.
And above that heaven-reaching tidal wave drifted the white catastrophe clouds that had long been detected by reconnaissance.
Dense masses of white shells blanketed the ocean's surface.
Bathed in sunlight, they shone with dazzling silver brilliance.
The thick shells of these creatures were as sturdy as heavily armored tanks.
Their shells were also covered with razor-sharp spines.
Whenever they unfolded their bodies, they resembled grotesque maggots, floating, crawling, and writhing without end.
They were none other than the Ore White Salamander Demons and the Silver Shell Demons.
Their rulers, the Extreme Shell Emperor and the Salamander Demon Heavenly Emperor, were undoubtedly hidden among them.
After such a long journey they had finally arrived.
And that was not all.
The skies above Magic City suddenly darkened.
Then, the heavens split apart.
An immeasurable ocean appeared suspended above the Heavenly Realm.
It stretched endlessly into the horizon, higher than the clouds and vaster than the sky itself.
The Cold Lunar Eye Demon God had finally made its move.
Using the Sea Divine Eye and the Tide Divine Eye, it unleashed the ultimate technique it had spent more than half a year preparing.
It was almost as though the entire Pacific Ocean had been lifted above the continental shelf of China.
That suspended sea enveloped every city along the eastern coast.
In an instant, China's climate underwent a dramatic transformation.
Winter snow began to fall.
Torrential rains poured from the skies.
Even the arid western regions were covered by an endless drizzle that seeped into every corner.
The Pacific Empire had gathered the waters of the Four Seas and commanded an army of countless billions of Sea Demons.
Its full-scale invasion of China had begun.
This battle would determine the destiny of the next thousand years.
At that very moment, within the Military Strategy Manor of the Ancient Capital.
Lu Jun slowly opened his eyes.
His aura surged like a raging tide.
Eight divine radiances flowed across his body.
Dusky Gold, Platinum, Black Crimson, Azure Blue, Dark Silver, Moon White, Black Gray and Milky White.
Chaotic mist spread behind him, faintly resembling the creation of heaven and earth itself.
Super Tier Great Perfection.
All eight Elements had reached at least Super Tier Level Three.
During this period, Lu Jun had devoted himself entirely to raising his cultivation.
With the assistance of the White Tiger Pendant, the Triangular Dimensional Realm, the Parthenon Divine Soul, and the Ancient King's Armor, he advanced the five Elements that had remained at Super Tier Level Two:
Water, Summoning, Space, Life and Death.
Each was raised by another level.
Among them, the Life and Death Elements demanded the greatest effort.
They directly evolved into Half Forbidden Curse realms, condensing their own Divine Endowments.
Combined with the Divine Endowments of his Curse and Psychic Elements, his Fusion Divine Endowment.
Eyes of Samsara
Had finally completed its gestation.
Now Lu Jun possessed five Half Forbidden Curse Elements.
At any moment, he could elevate all five into true Forbidden Curse Elements.
His combat strength had also barely reached the threshold of a Ruler Emperor.
Everything had progressed naturally.
After all the foundation he had accumulated over the years was simply too profound.
Lu Jun carefully examined the changes in the five newly advanced Super Tier Elements.
There was little need to mention the Level Three Water Super Spell:
Water Holocaust • Ocean Sovereign Overwhelms the Heavens.
It condensed the Spirit of the Boundless Sea.
Depending on the caster's understanding of water, it could manifest as either the Western-style Sea Emperor or the Eastern-style Black Emperor.
Ultimately, it represented the Water Mage's complete comprehension of the Origin of Water.
The Level Three Summoning Super Spell...
Ancient Demon Gate • Graveyard of the Fallen Beast Kingdom was much the same.
Its only improvement was allowing even greater power to be transmitted from the Candle Dragon's Otherworld.
The truly important changes lay within the Space-Time, Life, and Death Elements.
Each of their Level Three Super Spells possessed extraordinary abilities.
The Space-Time Spell, Space-Time Axis • Heaven and Earth Reversal was unbelievably overpowered.
It was a variation of the Flawless Domain.
Its effect allowed time itself to rewind by two or three seconds.
Simply put it reversed time.
It granted Lu Jun the opportunity to undo his own mistakes.
Such an ability was already completely heaven-defying.
Calling it Heaven and Earth Reversal was no exaggeration.
Naturally, it also had limitations.
It only worked against opponents of the same level.
Its effective range also seemed confined within the boundaries of the Flawless Domain.
Even so when empowered by Lu Jun's Divine Ascension State and Fusion Magic...
Even Ruler Emperors fell within its influence. As for the Level Three Life and Death Super Spells.
The former was Genesis • Inheriting the World.
Just as its name implied its boundless vitality no longer affected merely individuals or all living beings.
Its influence had expanded to encompass the world itself.
Lu Jun had become like the seedling of a humanoid World Tree, possessing the power to support an entire world, split heaven and earth apart, and create life itself.
The latter, Twilight Sun • World's End Radiance, was the exact opposite of Life Magic.
Wherever the light of the Twilight Sun shone, all life withered and perished.
It was upon the foundation of these two powers that his Eyes of Samsara had evolved into an unbelievably overpowered ability.
At this moment, Lu Jun felt stronger than ever before.
Only one final step remained.
He needed to elevate the nine Elements he had planned into the Forbidden Curse Realm, then fuse them together completely, allowing his Ascension Fusion State to remain permanently active, much like Mo Fan's Evil Holy King form.
However, thanks to his incomparably deep foundation, Lu Jun would become even stronger.
The moment he stepped into that realm, he would already possess the cultivation of a Ruler Emperor.
Once he completely refined all those Origins, advancing to a Roof Emperor would naturally follow.
Just as his strength soared he also sensed, from the eastern Pacific Ocean, the approach of an incomparably supreme aura.
Lu Jun immediately understood.
"So the final battle has begun?"
The next moment, his figure slowly rose into the air.
Looking down upon the Military Strategy Manor, he saw Professor Yuan leading countless members as they anxiously made the final adjustments to the Super Water Circulation Grand Formation.
He also saw his sister, Lu Mei.
Above her head floated an enormous crystal yellow eye.
The Vast Divine Eye.
At that moment, Lu Jun's spiritual consciousness expanded without limit.
Countless thoughts wandered through the void as his mind connected with every node of the immense spatial formation stretching across China, as well as every Space Mage stationed along it.
That's right.
His spiritual realm had broken through once again.
With the advancement of multiple Elements, he had shattered the barrier of the Ninth Realm, reaching the unprecedented Tenth Realm.
It could truly be called an Emperor-level Soul.
With the enhancement of the Triangular Dimensional Realm, it even reached the Twelfth Realm.
He no longer needed Ding Yumian's Psychic Calamity Talent to temporarily augment his spiritual power.
Originally, Ding Yumian had intended to merge her Primary Soul with him once again.
However, Lu Jun stopped her through Psychic Voice Transmission.
"I don't need that extra boost anymore."
"Yumian, stay in the Ancient Capital."
"Help my sister control the Vast Divine Eye."
"To manipulate the Earth Element across the vast Northwest, she can't accomplish it alone."
Hearing this, Ding Yumian suppressed her thoughts.
She looked at Lu Jun with undisguised concern before silently nodding.
After half a year of cultivation, she had finally relied on her own efforts to advance into the Psychic Forbidden Curse Realm.
With the two women working together, there would be no problems controlling the Earth Element.
Lu Jun turned his gaze toward the east.
His expression became solemn.
Taking a single step forward, the mountains and rivers spanning all of China rapidly blurred, shrinking beneath his feet until they became no more than an inch away.
With one step that bridged heaven and earth he descended upon Magic City.
There he stood face to face with the Cold Lunar Eye Demon God.
