Chapter 491: Chapter 411 Suppression_2
As soon as he emerged.
[Fourth-level Magic: Space Confinement]
Chen Jichuan immediately cast his magic, unleashing a massive surge of magic power that locked down the space within ten thousand miles. No one could use space magic in this region, effectively delaying other Legendary figures from arriving, while also preventing the Half-God Artifact wings from tearing apart the space to escape.
"O’Brien."
"Wind Binding."
Chen Jichuan’s hands and voice never stopped.
On one hand, he called out to O’Brien, who had caught up, to cast the Fourth-level Magic ’Wind Binding’ to further restrict the ’Holy Angel Wings,’ while simultaneously casting the Fourth-level Magic ’Meteor Disaster.’
Rumble!
Meteors rained from the sky.
Massive stones broke through the heavens, descending like streams of rain, densely packed and endlessly smashing onto the Half-God Artifact wings.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The wings, confined in Space Confinement and bound by the Qi Element, continued to dodge gracefully, carving out elegant arcs in the air.
The incoming meteors, whether fast or slow, had surprisingly minimal effect on the ’Holy Angel Wings.’
"As expected of a Divine Artifact component."
"It can even alter the descent speed of meteors."
This was the Fourth-level Magic ’Speed Domain’, a domain that when activated allowed acceleration or deceleration of itself or a target at will. Coupled with the ’Speed Secret Technique’ characteristic of the ’Holy Angel Wings,’ the power of this Fourth-level Magic was greatly enhanced.
"Rise!"
Chen Jichuan stretched out his hand—
Boom!
The surrounding ground collapsed with a thunderous roar, and gravity surged around the ’Holy Angel Wings.’ The meteors seemed to be pulled, descending faster, with their impacts finally gaining effectiveness.
Not only that.
The speed of the wings was also limited; they could no longer carve out such graceful arcs, appearing somewhat sluggish.
[Fourth-level Magic: Gravity Space]
Chen Jichuan cast Fourth-level Magic as though it cost nothing.
"Ha!"
The Qi Element Ancestor, O’Brien, also worked tirelessly. While maintaining ’Wind Binding,’ he summoned the ’Atmosphere Barrier,’ flexibly maneuvering to further reduce the activity range of the Half-God Artifact wings.
Finally.
The wings were forced into an area no bigger than an inch, making it nearly impossible for them to move.
"Converge!"
Chen Jichuan moved again, sweeping the earth into an enclosure, forming a cage that tightly trapped the ’Holy Angel Wings’ inside.
[Fourth-level Magic: Earth Cage]
With this move, the wings could no longer escape and merely convulsed in place, causing the cage to shake incessantly.
"Now it’s a matter of attrition."
Chen Jichuan saw the defiant behavior of the ’Holy Angel Wings’ and knew it would take more time before he could successfully claim them.
This delay was bound to draw Legendary Mages rushing over as they caught wind of the situation.
Taking advantage of the brief pause, Chen Jichuan chanted softly and reopened the summoning channels—
Bone Dragon.
Demon.
Mantis.
Thunderbird.
Fairy Dragon.
Hell Three-headed Dog.
Six channels opened simultaneously, summoning powerful Ancestors one after another.
...
Legendary Mages were scattered around the Star Cluster Graveyard.
Some deliberately lived not far from this perilous place so they could enter at any time to seek fortune.
Younger and inexperienced Legends generally avoided the Star Cluster Graveyard’s risks, but seasoned Legends nearing the end of their lifespan were undeterred.
If they failed to achieve immortality, their lives remained finite.
The treasures left behind by predecessors within the Star Cluster Graveyard and its unpredictable rules gave them hope—a hope to uncover the secrets of immortality before death claimed them.
Thus, despite the grave risks, Legendary Mages often stayed near the Graveyard.
Though they dared not linger in it long, their ventures were frequent but cautious. Some who misstepped perished or succumbed to madness—it was not unheard of.
When the ’Holy Angel Wings’ emerged, they were first detected by these aged Legends.
"Go!"
"Let’s check it out!"
"Surely some treasure has appeared in the Star Cluster Graveyard!"
...
Feeling the intense elemental surge, one after another, these legends took to the skies, employing their respective abilities to head toward the Graveyard.
Some even attempted to tear through space or traverse dimensions to travel faster.
But it was futile.
"Space Confinement?"
"Someone’s beaten us to it!"
"There must be an extraordinary treasure!"
When Legendary Mages encountered this phenomenon, they grew increasingly excited, rushing forward at full speed.
A small town four thousand miles from the Star Cluster Graveyard.
Moments after the ’Holy Angel Wings’ burst forth from the Graveyard, an elderly man with white hair, white beard, and white robes abruptly opened his eyes, which gleamed with brilliance: "Wind Element! Such a dense Wind Element!"
He drew a line in the air with his magic wand, but failed to accomplish anything.
"Space Confinement?"
The elderly man rose, waved his wand again, and a violent gale erupted, lifting him and causing him to vanish instantly.
...
Outside the Star Cluster Graveyard.
The white-haired, white-bearded, white-robed elder, hailing from the ’Silver Alliance,’ one of the three disciples under the Immortals and known as one of the ’Six Law Kings,’ namely the ’Windwalking Magic King’ Muba, was the first to arrive.
But before he approached, Muba suddenly halted, his expression darkening slightly.
"Seven Ancestors?"
Muba stared ahead, where seven powerful Ancestors stood intimidatingly, protecting a young Mage at their center. Inside the Earth Cage, a pair of wings struggled, and with a mere glance, Muba’s breath quickened: "Holy Angel Wings!"
He specialized in the Wind Element, and within the ’Silver Alliance,’ was even renowned as the ’Windwalking Magic King,’ with Wind Magic that reached unparalleled mastery.
Yet he remained stuck at the Legendary tier, unable to ascend to immortality.
Knowing his days were numbered, Muba chose not to linger idly within the ’Silver Alliance,’ venturing into the Star Cluster Graveyard with hopes of finding a glimmer of fortune.
Having dedicated years of relentless training and seeking rare Wind treasures, it was no surprise that he instantly recognized the suppressed wings as the ’Holy Angel Wings,’ one of the seven components of the Divine Artifact ’Holy Angel.’
"The ’Holy Angel Wings’ contain the Speed Secret Technique. If I claim it, with a little comprehension, I can immediately create Forbidden Curse Magic imbued with a trace of Rule Profound Meaning. Using the ’Holy Angel Wings’ to forge my throne, I could reach immortality within a few years!"
Muba’s heart surged with excitement.
He looked at the seven Ancestors and then at the young Mage in the center, not hesitating to send an urgent message to the ’Silver Alliance’—
"I have discovered the Divine Artifact ’Holy Angel’ component ’Holy Angel Wings’ within the Star Cluster Graveyard. Requesting immediate assistance from the three Lords!"
Muba knew that relying solely on his own strength—despite being an Extreme Legend on the summit of Legendary tier—it would be nearly impossible to seize this Half-God Artifact on his own.
With fortune so close, he had to ensure absolute success.
Requesting aid from the ’Silver Alliance’ would indeed place him under their authority, but what did it matter when achieving immortality meant dedicating the next millennia to their cause?
"This is do-or-die!"
Muba couldn’t contain his tension.
...
"Not enough."
"Legends are arriving in succession. Even those independent Mages as Legends have networks of connections that make them challenging opponents when they call for allies."
"Seven Ancestors are far from sufficient."
Chen Jichuan’s magic power surged like a bottomless ocean, unrestrained.
Even after summoning six Ancestors in one breath, he remained unsatisfied.
"Undead Disaster!"
Another Legion-level Magic was unleashed, summoning an Undead Army.
"Mirror Image Army!"
The Undead Army instantly doubled.
Such was the horror of the Fourth-level Magic ’Mirror Image Army.’ As long as one had enough magic power, even if the mirrored soldiers died in battle endlessly, they could be endlessly replicated into fearless combatants.
Not only could it mirror his own Undead Army, but any incoming enemy’s army could also be replicated and turned against them.
The only limitation: it could not replicate Fourth-order Legends, but beyond that, the ’Mirror Image Army’ was virtually invincible.
With sufficient magic power, one could dominate all fronts.
And as luck would have it, Chen Jichuan’s magic power seemed limitless.
"So... so many?!"
Undead Disaster!
Mirror Image Army!
Having just finished sending his message, Muba stared at the overwhelming Undead Army spreading before him, suddenly at a loss.
...
Time flew by.
News of the Half-God Artifact emerging from the Star Cluster Graveyard spread like wildfire.
Muba was the first to arrive at the Graveyard and also the first to inform the ’Silver Alliance’ of the Half-God Artifact’s appearance.
Yet, the first organization to respond was the ’Magic Martial Holy Hall.’
Ten thousand miles outside the Star Cluster Graveyard.
Whoosh!
Space rippled as dozens of figures abruptly materialized. Moments later, another fifty individuals arrived.
This sequence repeated several times.
Soon, a three-hundred-strong force had assembled.
...
