Lu Jun didn’t use any magic. Relying solely on his control over the water elent, he reversed the surging waves driven by over a dozen Scarlet scale Demon Warriors.
This was the manifestation of deep elental domain mastery.
Imdiately afterward, under the panicked and frantic screams of the Scarlet scale Demons, the towering waves surged upward, being tugged back and forth. They rose into a fifty-ter-tall dark blue tidal wave, with deathly stillness billowing in every direction.
On the other side, Ai Jiangtu, Guan Yu, Mo Fan, and the others weren’t idle either. They quickly manipulated their star patterns, releasing spells to control the enemy.
So used silvery Spatial Thought Lock to grip the Crimsonscale Demons, others unleashed Shadow Crawlers that turned into giant dark nails to pin them down, while so used Psychic and Plant Elent magic to bind the demons.
In an instant, the towering tidal wave of deathly stillness ca crashing down. More than a dozen mighty Scarlet scale Demon Warriors were swept into it, forced back several hundred ters.
Once everything cald, a sizzling dissolution sound rang out. Everyone was stunned to see the pitch-black seawater receding and revealing the mangled, corroded corpses of the Scarlet scale Demons.
"Holy crap, is that undead power? Old Lu, did your water elent evolve again? Did you get a Water Elent Soul Seed?"
Mo Fan was astonished. Pure water impact rarely suffocates sea demons like the Scarlet scale, but Death Corrosion can easily take the life of living creatures.
Lu Jun’s one move to wipe them out left him deep in thought.
The tidal wave had rapidly swelled under the back-and-forth struggle between Old Zhao and the sea demons, saving him the ti normally needed for Violent Wave Galaxy to accumulate the Tide Surge effect. This allowed him to begin stacking Tide Surge from a higher starting point, significantly boosting the initial power.
It should be noted that since reaching high-level in multiple elents and facing increasingly powerful enemies, Lu Jun had used Violent Waves less and less with his Water Elent.
It was because Tide Surge took too long to lay down.
This technique had high potential, but facing Commander-level enemies who could casually cast high-level spells ant there simply wasn’t ti to set it up.
If he had a water mage beside him to assist in wave building while he held off the enemy, and then took over once enough energy built wouldn’t that make it much more practical?
"A top-tier water mage is hard to find, let alone one who can follow around."
Lu Jun pondered, and thought of the Water Elental Saint Spirit—a perfect match, no doubt but finding one was extrely unlikely.
However, good news ca last night. He didn’t know whether it was his slaughter of the Lu Family that had intimidated the Zu Family, but the compensation they had promised was now being offered... as a condition.
Thinking of the Zu Family’s international clan status, he planned to ask them for help searching the vast Four Oceans for a Water Elental Saint Spirit!
Places where rmaids, sirens, sea maidens, lake spirits, and river gods were frequently reported would be carpet-searched there had to be at least one out there.
Of course, the cost of such a mission would be very high. If posted on the Hunter Alliance, the reward pool would probably be two or three billion.
But Lu Jun wasn’t the one footing the bill, so why not use the Zu Family’s connections?
Additionally, Lu Jun’s backup plan was to go to Japan. As a country surrounded by ocean, the chance of finding a Water Elental Saint Spirit was higher there.
"Ah!" At that mont, Jiang Shaoxu suddenly cried out in alarm, pointing to the Scarlet scale Demon corpses exposed after the black tide receded and said, "Look quickly what’s inside the Scarlet scale Demons?"
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Ai Jiangtu reacted instantly. With a wave of Telekinesis, he split open a Scarlet scale Demon’s abdon. Stomach acid, blood, rotten food, and other putrid remains spilled out, reeking unbearably.
What appeared along with the filth was a baby’s corpse also rotten.
Everyone inhaled sharply, shaken by the grotesque sight. They gagged, rage building within their hearts.
Ai Jiangtu’s face turned grim. He went on to dissect the other Scarlet scale corpses—dozens in total and discovered similar cases.
Even Lu Jun’s expression darkened. Although he had known this all along, seeing it with his own eyes hit hard.
Here it was. He sighed inwardly. The sea demon chaos in Feiniaoshi was rely the surface. This was the true heart of the problem.
He knew who the mastermind was the multi-elent Forbidden Curse mage, one of humanity’s top-tier powerhouses under the Asian Magic Association: Su Lu.
That’s right. He was also the one who would fra Feng Zhounong and obstruct the birth of Fusion Magic in the future.
The mbers of the National Team were furious. The actions of the Scarlet Scaled Demons had clearly crossed the bottom line of humanity. In an instant, everyone was boiling with rage, demanding to launch an assault on the Scarlet Scaled Demon tribe’s lair.
But none of these young people noticed the anomaly with the infant corpses their hearts had all vanished without a trace.
The Sea Monsters were rely scapegoats, acting as cleaners and disposers. The real evil was humanity itself.
Lu Jun didn’t bother to point it out they were powerless. The mountain behind it all was far too enormous.
"What a load of bullshit."
He couldn’t help but feel a flicker of killing intent toward Su Lu. Even criminals possessed so basic compassion.
Right now, everyone’s gaze was fixed on him, filled with anticipation.
Lu Jun decided to deal with the troubles in Feiniao City first. He didn’t hesitate and issued his command: "We’ll split into two teams. One goes to wipe out the Scarlet Scaled Demon lair. The other stays in the city to investigate recent child disappearance cases."
As soon as these words were spoken, Ai Jiangtu and the others, being clever people, had their expressions change. "You’re saying soone allowed this to happen deliberately."
"Mm." Lu Jun nodded slightly. He thought, if he couldn’t eliminate Su Lu, then at the very least, he’d use these National Team mbers and their powerful backers to sever all the claws Su Lu had extended, ensuring Feiniao City would never suffer such horrors again.
Of course, from Ai Jiangtu and the others’ perspective, these people at most were guilty of concealing the truth not of sothing far darker.
In a sense, the enablers were also taking the fall for Su Lu. Only in this way could both sides muddle through this situation without open conflict.
Jiang Yu and Jiang Shaoxu volunteered. They took a boat and returned swiftly with the ordinary man Liu ng.
The remaining eleven, including Lu Jun, were seething with murderous intent as they charged toward the Scarlet Scaled Demon’s lair.
This group of creatures lived between four islands and could escape into the sea at any ti.
The crowd frowned. Just when they were at a loss, Lu Jun once again stepped forward. He released his Psychic Detection, scanning several kiloters around with pinpoint accuracy, locking onto Scarlet Scaled Demons slumbering under the reefs.
The Scarlet Scaled Demons followed an elite path their numbers were few, but the proportion of Warrior-level was extrely high. Among them, one life force was burning like a blazing sun, the largest presence of all, clearly a Commander-level behemoth.
"Heh! All of you, get out here!"
Lu Jun snorted coldly. His eyes glead with dark-blue radiance. Above his head, a gleaming Water Repelling Bead floated upward, while water vapor surged fiercely around him.
In an instant, vast dark-blue fog swept forth, obscuring the skies and blanketing the area across the four or five islands.
This was no exaggeration. Even Mu Ningxue, with just a Mid-Tier Ice Elent and so domain control, could accomplish similar feats what Lu Jun did was even more effortless and far-reaching.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
After a brief buildup, the sea surface suddenly surged violently. Ripple after ripple spread out like a boiling pot. Then, one after another, giant water columns erupted, soaring fifty ters high into the air.
Atop each water pillar, a Scarlet Scaled Demon was hoisted and hurled into the sky!
He had forcibly blasted hundreds of monsters out from the deep waters in one breath!
