Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

Lin Lan's Shadow and Earth elements don't require any thought; completely replicating Mo Fan's original path not only makes them powerful, but also saves time, giving Lin Lan's other elements a long time to develop.

With your foresight, a powerful path is laid out before you; only a fool wouldn't use it.

Those sea monsters were all dead, but Lin Lan did not relax.

Their leader is a powerful demon lord.

Lin Lan was examining the situation, using his eighth-level spiritual power to try and find any clues about the Demon Lord.

"Whoosh!!!"

Just as Lin Lan was using his mental power, suddenly, a gray-green demonic shadow exploded on the sea below, shooting out of the water like a ghost and instantly closing in on Lin Lan's height!

Lin Lan was about to discover the demon lord's location, which was why it was acting desperately. A murderous aura was already looming!

In the critical moment, Lin Lan suddenly spread his arms and sank backward like a hawk soaring in the dark night, disappearing into a faint, shadowy barrier.

"laugh!"

The demonic shadow crashed into the dark partition, but it passed through as if through a thin curtain of water. Lin Lan, who was in the dark state, seemed to become a blur in the air. The demonic shadow's attack passed right through him, without harming him in the slightest!
Lin Lan turned around abruptly, and the demon lord who had launched the sneak attack was already not far behind him.

"I'm rough!"

The demon lord attacked several times in succession, clearly harboring intense anger towards Lin Lan.

However, Lin Lan can both hide in his own shadow and use instantaneous movement.

The demon lord couldn't even touch a single hair of it, so it gradually gave up.

At this moment, Lin Lan also saw the other party's appearance clearly, and it was a mutated Ling Demon! Its entire body was covered with a gray-green reef metal hide, and its back had ferocious and exaggerated coral fins standing upright, exuding a violent nobility like a crown of thorns. It stood like a human, with its forelimbs like two drawn swordfish spines, and its hind limbs were frog-shaped, covered with bulging muscles, full of explosive power.

Although this Lingyao is as ugly as the other crimson Rift Demons, its upright coral fins exude a chilling and eerie aura, a dangerous yet noble symbol unique to the overlord of the deep sea!

"Then let's try this!" Lin Lan remembered that she now possessed an extremely powerful new ability!
Let it bring an end to this demon lord!
A blindingly white bolt of lightning ripped through the dim light, instantly transforming the rain-soaked sky into a flowing expanse of platinum. In the brief moment the lightning faded, it also cast Lin Lan's dark, distorted shadow into the puddles on the ground.

The shadow came to life.

As the dark power around Lin Lan surged like a raging tide, the shadow reflected on the water also spread and expanded wildly, transforming from an ordinary elongated human figure into a huge cloud shadow that blotted out the sky!

The expanding shadow domain, like a persistent leech, instantly caught up with the Coral Fin Demon Lord, who was attempting to wreak havoc once more. Within the shadows, a being far more profound and majestic than the Dark Sword Master—the Shadow Elder, descended from the Dark Dimension—suddenly manifested!

That was one of the true rulers of the Dark Dimension.

The elder's lower body was a surging, sharp, blade-like aura of shadow energy, while his upper body was a gigantic, black, and almost tangible form, dozens of times thicker. This elder, born from Lin Lan's shadow, suddenly spread his demonic arms and launched a combined attack from both sides!
Sensing danger, the Coral Dorsal Fin Demon Lord turned to flee. But when it looked around in panic, it realized that no matter where it fled or how fast it ran, the Shadow Elder's two claws were firmly shrouded in the ever-expanding darkness, leaving it nowhere to escape!
"Bang!!!!!" The two palms clashed violently, the deafening sound shaking heaven and earth. The Coral Dorsal Fin Demon Lord was finally imprisoned in the palms of the claws, the terrifying grip capable of crushing mountains.

Dark mist emanated wildly from the coral dorsal fin demon lord's body. The shadow elder's claws contained the ultimate dark corrosive power, and the demon lord's gray-green skin rapidly corroded and withered. The terrifying grip made its bones creak and groan, as if it would completely collapse at any moment!
"Eat it!"

Lin Lan gave instructions to the elders of the film industry.

The shadow elder let out a chilling, eerie laugh, and his massive shadowy form suddenly detached itself from Lin Lan's shadow—while the shadow beneath Lin Lan's feet also vanished.

Pale lightning bolts exploded one after another in the rain, illuminating the ever-expanding dark demon body of the Shadow Elder: it rushed forward rapidly along its thick, outstretched arms, its head growing enormous in an instant, like a primordial demon awakening from the abyss, seizing its dying prey.

After completely crushing many of the coral dorsal fin demon king's bones, this once arrogant demon king was reduced to a helpless prey, and was stuffed into the giant mouth by the Shadow Elder.

Immediately following was the sickening sound of chewing, followed by a piercing scream that abruptly stopped but seemed to still linger in the air.

"Their souls have been completely devoured."

Lin Lan had originally hoped to get lucky and obtain a spirit essence, but this elder of the Shadow lineage seemed to be charging an appearance fee, taking not only flesh and blood but also soul along with it.

……

"Hoo——————!"

A deafening roar suddenly came from the sea, more than ten kilometers away.

Looking into the distance, one could see the enormous body of a decaying sea monster, trailing a trail of blood as brilliant as the sunset, fleeing in panic towards the depths of the East China Sea. Its roar was filled with pain and resentment.

"It escaped?" On the cross-sea bridge, the old mage of the sound system gleaned crucial information from the roar of the No. 1 calamity beast.

Meanwhile, ten kilometers away, Baxia slowly rose from the deep water. The sea level where it stood was noticeably tilted, clearly an effect of the previous fierce underwater battle.

Instead of pursuing the fleeing Qiu Chi, Ba Xia changed direction, locked its gaze on Qiu Zi, who was still wreaking havoc in the strait, and suddenly accelerated back.

"To kill the second calamity beast?" The old mage of the sound element keenly caught the thought coming from Baxia, which was the information transmitted by Zhao Manyan through the contract.

To save his life, Qiu Chi fled into the deep sea. The greatest threat now was Qiu Zi, who was still commanding the sea monster army. If Baxia could flank him from the rear, cutting off his retreat, and with the help of several high-level mentors from the human camp, it was entirely possible to completely eliminate this menace!

When the East Sea Guild Master heard about the plan, he was initially hesitant. After all, ancient sea monsters like Qiu Chi and Qiu Zi were generally considered invincible, and being able to repel them was already a great stroke of luck for Xiamen. But when he saw Baxia charging back to the battlefield with overwhelming momentum, his long-suppressed heart began to pound violently.

Yes, why can't we kill him?

The reason the sirens dare to so brazenly invade human territory is simply because they take advantage of humanity's weakness. If we can slay these sirens' overlords, let's see if they dare to invade the coastline again! (End of Chapter)
