Chapter 332: Chapter329-Absolute Overpowering
Nine pure white swords of light hovered in the sky, their hilts aligned together to form a dazzling, spinning wheel of light.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The sword blades emitted a chilling gleam and a whistling wind.
In an instant, propelled by Damien, this wheel of light shot toward Owen, a pure aura of purification radiating outwards, dispelling all the surrounding darkness.
The world turned blindingly white.
Owen squinted, recognizing this as the ultimate spell of the God of Light, its attack speed as swift as flowing light, allowing almost no time to react.
For any other mage-even a God Emperor-tier mage-this nearly undetectable wheel of light might have been a deadly blow.
But Owen had completely absorbed the God of Light's supreme magical legacy, and even surpassed it.
To him, this attack was riddled with flaws.
In Damien's frenzied gaze, Owen flicked a finger, sending a firefly-like point of starlight flying out, rushing toward the blinding wheel of light like a moth to a flame.
"So, this is the so-called greatest genius? How laughable!"
Seeing Owen use only a minuscule amount of mana to try to block his ferocious killing blow, Damien grew even more confident.
But as his words left his mouth, the smile on his face froze.
Though the light point Owen had conjured was faint, it struck first, hitting the connection point of the sword hilts on the light wheel.
Crack, crack-
The sword wheel trembled, its forward momentum halted, and then, with a sudden cracking sound, the wheel shattered under the impact of the light point, breaking into fragments!
In Damien's astonished gaze, it dissolved into a rain of light and vanished without a trace. His first attack after breaking through to God Emperor-tier had just been nullified by Owen? Damien couldn't believe his eyes.
The other mages watching rubbed their eyes vigorously.
How could this be?!
The light wheel Damien had launched instilled a suffocating sense of death.
The speed was so swift, they only managed to catch a glimpse of its trajectory after Owen blocked it.
Yet, this terrifying move had been effortlessly countered by Owen!
It was as though Damien had not just advanced to a higher tier, but instead had fallen back a tier!
Vanessa stood there, stunned.
She knew Owen could easily overpower the four God Kings. While surprising, this was within her expectations.
After all, even if Owen had made no breakthroughs in the past ten years, he should still be able to easily handle the four rising God Kings.
But Damien was different; he was not only extremely high-level but also possessed formidable combat power.
He was practically flawless in every respect; otherwise, he would not have become the
headmaster of West Sanctum Academy, the idol of many students.
Yet, this incredibly powerful Damien had been utterly defeated by Owen without so much as a ripple-a result that far exceeded her expectations!
Her mind drifted to Owen's past, legendary victories!
Among the prodigies of his generation, Owen was undefeated!
He even managed to triumph against, or at least hold his own against, senior figures much stronger than him!
Later, he had even gone so far as to blackmail the four Forbidden Zones, and they remained sealed within to this day!
Thinking of this, she realized she had still underestimated the Lord Emperor.
The Lord Emperor's talent simply couldn't be measured by normal logic!
It was on a completely different level!
Meanwhile, the defeated Damien quickly steadied himself and charged at Owen again.
This time, the molten stars behind him condensed into a pair of crimson wings, propelling him explosively toward Owen!
Owen looked at Damien's power surge with slight surprise.
It seemed Damien had managed to fuse some aspects of the God of Light and Lord of Stars' supreme magic into this move.
He could sense both the endless radiance and the Eternal Seal's energy in it.
Clearly, Damien was attempting to merge these two supreme magics, and he'd made some progress.
However, his fusion was extremely rudimentary, only at a basic level.
For most mages, this would already be astonishing, as it would multiply their combat strength several times.
After all, these two supreme magics were no simple spells.
But before him, this was nothing more than child's play.
"Dying under my own magic...you'll be the first!" Damien snarled, charging forward like a flaming meteor with the wings behind him propelling him, carrying a wave of annihilating
energy.
The entire academy rumbled and shook, the earth cracked, and the stars in the sky seemed to follow his descent.
An apocalyptic scene unfolded.
Vanessa and the others looked on in horror. The terrifying power of this magical attack left them paralyzed with a tingling numbness, unable to move.
Yet, just as Damien's world-shaking magic attack reached Owen, it suddenly stopped, frozen by a single finger extended from Owen.
The visions born from Damien's attack dissipated like dust blown away by a fierce wind upon encountering the imprisoning aura from Owen.
Damien's pupils shrank as he stared in disbelief at Owen's outstretched finger.
"How is this possible?!"
In his perception, as his attacks reached Owen, they encountered a higher-tier power.
The spells and mental waves meant to seal Owen, rendering him defenseless, instead became imprisoned by Owen's power without a sound.
But he was using the supreme magics of both the Lord of Stars and the God of Light, in a
combined version he'd developed!
This was the culmination of years of hard work!
Now, in front of Owen, his life's work was little more than a joke!
As turmoil roiled in Damien's heart, the battle's disturbance attracted the attention of nearby
forces like the Black Iron Dwarves and the White Tower Tech Guild.
And what they saw made their souls tremble.
The Lord Emperor, Owen, had appeared here!
And the headmaster of West Sanctum Academy had dared to attack him!
Though he hadn't harmed the Lord Emperor, simply attacking him was an affront, an act of
rebellion!
"Damien, you beast, is this how you treat the Lord Emperor? The benefits he granted you- did you throw them all to the dogs?"
The Black Iron Dwarves, known for their fiery tempers, shouted in anger, brandishing their forging hammers as they charged at Damien.
The dwarves were short in stature, only half the height of a human adult, but their arms were powerfully built, containing explosive strength.
Just as they charged at Damien, a wave of extreme heat rolled out, transforming the area into
a furnace.
"Damien, you're truly audacious! To dare attack the Lord Emperor, capture him!"
The scientists from the White Tower Tech Guild, clad in lab coats, drew special magical railguns from their belts and aimed them at Damien.
The tech guild had previously faced an unprecedented bottleneck, but thanks to the Lord Emperor's resources and support, their technology had made significant breakthroughs! They were simple-minded; they remembered exactly who funded them, who supported them. The Shadow Clan and Moss Giants who arrived next also glared furiously at Damien. They had been engrossed in fulfilling the Lord Emperor's assigned tasks, overlooking local
management.
But Damien dared to defy the heavens, attacking the Lord Emperor!
In an instant, angry shouts filled with murderous intent resounded around Damien's ears like
a deafening roar.
Damien's face turned dark as water.
Vanessa and the others were stunned by this grand scene, recognizing the powerful figures gathered here-figures whom they normally found nearly impossible to meet.
But here they all were, gathered for the Lord Emperor.
"Owen is right here; let's join forces and destroy him! Azure Kingdom will be ours after that!"
