The Star Sea Heavenly Vein had been refined.
Lu Jun felt his body like a dried sponge, greedily absorbing a vast surge of energy. His essence, energy, and spirit all simultaneously elevated and strengthened.
Boom!
Finally, he succeeded. In his spiritual universe, a brand-new Star Sea emerged. 2,401 glittering stars floated and sank; the jet-black Water Elemental magical energy surged wildly, carrying with it profound weight, ultimate Yin, tidal characteristics, and all the traits of the Sea Abyss.
Not only that, the Northern Underworld heavy water refined his physical body. His two kidneys condensed radiant light, transforming into extraordinary organs. His Qi Sea dantian opened, as if holding an entire boundless ocean.
The ocean of spirit and the Northern Underworld physical sea echoed one another; the two seas resonated and intertwined.
His Qi and blood advanced in six levels, attempting to break the threshold of a Monarch-level body and ascend to Qi and Blood Level Seven.
Unlike the Transcendental force of the Curse or Psychic elements, the Water Element extraordinary force directly affected vital organs, bringing even greater changes to the physique.
Unfortunately, the breakthrough fluctuations around Lu Jun gradually subsided. In the end, his jade-black crystalline body still did not reach Monarch level, just a little short of perfect timing.
Even so, his Water element Super-tier ascension succeeded! Transcendent Force—Northern Underworld Qi Sea—mastered!
Buzzing.
Inside the meditation chamber, Lu Jun suddenly opened his eyes and rose. His left eye shone holy blue, his right eye an eerie blood-black. In the center of his body at the dantian, a jet-black sphere floated, flanked by the light and shadows of his kidneys.
Three elements Super-tier el, three elements Transcendent force.
The more Lu Jun cultivated, the more his appearance became inhuman, like a god-born anomaly—transcendent, ethereal, divine, and supreme.
At this moment, he joyfully closed his eyes to sense. Three vast Star Seas firmly occupied the center of his spiritual universe, with jet-black, azure, and black-red light flowing.
"Transcendent Force—Northern Underworld Sea."
He comprehended this new ability. Unlike the lesser-known Nether Gaze or Fantasy Eye, he had already learned to wield this force in advance.
The Northern Underworld Qi Sea, aside from passively massively enhancing control and range of Water element, also possessed an active release effect. Equivalent to Netherworld Dark Verdict of the Nether Gaze, it could directly unleash Super-tier destructive power.
Lu Jun's mind sank into the dantian inside his body. His soul thoughts traveled through his broad river-like Qi and blood meridians, the resilient mountain-like five viscera and six bowels. Then his vision suddenly cleared, arriving at an expansive, boundless jet-black great marsh.
Splash!
The Northern Underworld Qi Sea surged violently. Above, nine dark suns hovered, but emitted no heat. Instead, chilling coldness radiated, as if condensed from the essence of Water itself.
Next moment, Lu Jun retracted his thought. Inside his abdomen's jet-black brilliance, nine crystalline dark-blue water droplets floated.
These were Northern Underworld Heavy Water, condensed from enormous water vapor. A single droplet equaled the water volume of a lake. When unleashed, each struck with immense force, fully charged, reaching the minimum standard of super-level magic.
If ten droplets were accumulated, even peers at the same level would rarely match it. It could redirect rivers, reverse waterfalls. With a thousand droplets, it would approach the Super-tier ceiling, infinitely close to forbidden spells.
Lu Jun's Water element Super-tier ascension triggered the tidal Water Element to self-gather nine droplets. Going forward, it would take long periods to accumulate more.
The Northern Underworld Qi Sea's advantage was instant release. The condensed Northern Underworld Heavy Water also held a one-on-one combat advantage among human mages—far better than the Super-tier magic Water Holocaust, which might flood a city uncontrollably.
Just as Lu Jun completed his Water element Super-tier breakthrough and prepared to consolidate, a faint spiritual perception arose. At the same time, his Water Super-tier Star Sea trembled, and a plump gem floated from the depths.
Water-Avoidance Pearl! Fixed Tidal Talent!
Lu Jun's soul resonated. He stepped out of the meditation chamber, ignoring the panic of countless surrounding mages. He soared into the sky and looked far to the west.
Across the Atlantic, he gazed toward the Americas.
He sensed a closely connected entity on the opposite shore. His soul flickered, inexplicably glimpsing a Buddhist temple, a frail monk draped in robes.
"Peru… Wu Ku… Water Buddha Pearl?"
Lu Jun murmured. He had a strong intuition: the next Water element ascension would land with that person.
The Water-Avoidance Pearl could amplify his base power 1.5 times. Multiplied by Northern Underworld Heavy Water sixfold, reaching nine times.
If he could refine the Water Buddha Pearl as well, who knew if he could go further—even seize the opponent's Water-disaster talent?
In the original story, Zhao Manyan had absorbed part of someone else's wind-and-rain summoning talent, growing his strength rapidly.
"The Black Inquisition… it's time to deal with them."
In the past, Lu Jun had considered his strength insufficient. Though tempted by Wu Ku's Water Buddha Pearl, he had abandoned it. Now, with his cultivation improved, killing a Super-tier first or second Level defensive mage would be effortless.
The only concern was interference from the hidden rebel group in Peru.
Midair, his sister Lu Mei's figure arrived. She asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Did something go wrong in cultivation?"
Lu Jun shook his head, smiling brightly. "All went smoothly. Water element Super-tier !"
Hearing this, Lu Mei felt happy yet slightly disappointed, now her younger brother had completely surpassed her.
He noticed her emotion and suddenly spoke mysteriously: "This isn't the place to talk. Let's go to the room. I'll show you something good."
Upon hearing this, Lu Mei's heartbeat quickened, her charming face slightly flushed, and she shot him a glare.
Then the two of them negotiated with the Magic Association, resolving the misunderstanding caused by the disturbance, and returned to the rented private villa.
Buzzing.
Inside the room, Lu Mei was dumbfounded, staring at the elegant divine female phantom floating behind her brother. Its sacred and noble aura radiated, the vast divine energy restrained within, yet still holy, majestic, and untouchable.
Her sisterly mind fell silent for a moment. She had assumed Lu Jun's breakthrough deserved celebration, but she had not expected this precious treasure.
She composed herself and asked, puzzled, "Is this the soul of Parthenon, capable of granting resurrection magic?"
"That's correct." Lu Jun sensed the Divine soul stirring and eager to manifest, floating lightly as if wanting to transcend, but restrained by the ancient king's armor robe within it.
If Wen Tai were still alive, his bond alone would make the emperor's undead essence insufficient to suppress it.
But alas, in the present Parthenon, all the goddesses and holy maidens had fallen. The remaining personnel were powerless against him.
Lu Jun said calmly, "I can control the divine soul and bestow Divine Seal Blessing. Among your Earth, Fire, Wind, and Chaos elements, which one do you wish to receive the blessing for?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Mei gasped. Only the top talent of the National Government could receive this blessing, she hadn't expected it to be within her reach.
Moreover, being blessed by the Parthenon divine soul was equivalent to the goddess herself solidifying the Divine Seal Blessing. The quality far exceeded that of a blessing from the Matron.
She fell into contemplation. First, she ruled out the Chaos element. As a system that consumed spirit to amplify and specialized more in tricks than destruction, the Divine Seal Blessing could not achieve maximum effect.
Furthermore, the Chaos element had only recently awakened, at a Mid-Tier rank.
It would be wiser for Lu Mei to choose among the three elemental systems. The Earth and Fire elements absorbed energy from the earth's core and had advanced to Super-tier. The Wind element had refined the Star Sea Heavenly Vein just a month ago and had mastered Super-tier magic.
