Versatile Mage

There was a rumble.

The earth trembled violently and caused the whole Aquarius to shake. Ye Mei stood on the waterfall and almost slipped down the slope. As she gained her footing, she turned to see what was causing it. A chill went down her back.

Behind her was an undulating mountain range. Several heads higher than the mountain were swaying in the light blue sky. All she could see were their necks. The mountain had blocked the rest of their bodies.

More heads stuck out from under the mountains, and each of them was ferocious and mighty as the other. They possessed the wildness and arrogance of ancient demons and a bit of the divinity among monsters. They came from an unknown world, and it was enough to make a land tremble. Those were the heads of a snake.

There were eight of them in total. Those heads swayed in the air. Huge beasts and demonic evil spirits were nothing in front of its demonic aura. It slithered slowly. The choice for them was to either surrender or let it tear them into pieces.

‘It’s the big snake in that volcano!’ Ye Mei’s back was drenched with cold sweat as she looked at the creature.

Even when she had seen that snake before, she had felt terrified of it. But now it had crossed the mountain and slithered to the Silver-Blue Valley City like a cruel tyrant. It had only one goal: to kill as many people as possible.

Mo Fan also felt the intense aura. When he found the source, the big snake in the volcano had already reached the bottom of the bottle.

Across the Aquarius’ wall, its eight heads stretched out at the same time. Sixteen fierce eyes of different colors looked down at Mo Fan, Ye Mei, and Jiang Yu at the bottom of the bottle!

Jiang Yu was the first to fall on the ground, his legs trembling. Ye Mei and Mo Fan remained standing, but they could feel goosebumps all over their bodies.

When facing the vast army of Ocean Demons, the sturdiness of Aquarius had provided them with hope and relief. However, when they faced this eight-headed snake, they felt as though the Aquarius was fragile and this snake could easily break it and tear them apart.

“T-This…” Mo Fan looked at the body of the demon. All eight heads grew from one body!

They had thought that it slithered across the mountain towards them, but the body was in the mountain. Its body was big enough to fill eight hills and eight valleys. Some areas on its back had large brown armor; some areas had moss and trees; some areas had cooled magma with white smoke on them.

It also had eight tails. When it dragged its tails, the mountains and valleys rumbled. Mo Fan understood what Pang Lai had meant.

It was not a few volcanic snakes as Mo Fan had assumed but all of them grew from a single body.This demon had eight giant heads and tails!

“Eight-Headed Serpent!” Pang Lai was in the center of Aquarius. When he saw the demon nearby, horror filled his eyes.

The Royal Great Mages panicked. No matter how many Ocean Demons there were, they were better than such a terrifying demon. It was worrying to think just how long Aquarius could hold under the attacks of such a mighty creature.

…

“It’s going to destroy the Aquarius Magic Formation!” Ye Mei shouted.

The three heads of the Eight-Headed Serpent with the smell of magma opened their mouths, and dense blood vessels appeared on their necks. Red-hot magma filled the blood vessels and gathered at their throats.

Boom!

It was like three volcanoes had erupted at the same time. The Eight-Headed Serpent attacked the side of the Aquarius. The three heads spat magma continuously. Their attacks were so strong that even the bottom and mouth of the bottle were affected.

Silver-Blue Valley City appeared to be submerged in magma within ten seconds. If it were not for the protection of the Aquarius, it would have melted into a puddle.

Hot air came drifted in from outside the Aquarius Magic Formation. Many areas could not withstand such a high temperature and began to burn.

In the city, the Stingray King saw the Eight-Headed Serpent spitting fire, so it decisively sucked all the Stingray Legion back into its gills and left the Aquarius.

The Moon Moth Phoenix did not want its Armed Spirit Moths to die in the sea of fire. It shook its body and turned all the Armed Spirit Moths into the shining lights around which fused with it. It returned to Mo Fan’s side.

“Can the Aquarius withstand the attacks?” Mo Fan asked with an uneasiness.

“For the time being, yes,” Ye Mei replied.

A raging flame turned the Silver-Blue Valley City into a red mess. Even though the Aquarius Magic Formation had blocked most of the fire spewed by the Eight-Headed Serpent, they still felt hot and uncomfortable, as if they were in a furnace. If they faced the fire directly, most of them would not be able to withstand it.

After the Eight-Headed Serpent finished spraying the magma, everyone thought they would have a little time to prepare. However, another head raised again. The body connected to this head was like an iceberg.

As the Eight-Headed Serpent’s icy head began to attack, an ice storm appeared.

“Wow!”

The icy head sprayed a terrifying white ice tide. It was as though the Eight-Headed Serpent had eaten an iceberg and spat it violently.

The magma had just scorched the Aquarius, and the ice tide was beating it again. A crack immediately appeared on the bottle wall.

The cold air entered Silver-Blue Valley City through the cracks. The valley changed from a warm summer to severe winter. Rivers, cities, mountains, forests, and even the low-level Ocean Demons were frozen!

“Oh no!” Ye Mei grimaced as she watched the water in the Silver-Blue River.

The flow of the river was important to maintain the Aquarius Magic Formation. It would deliver the energy of the barrier to every position of the Aquarius. If the river turned stagnant, other parts of the Aquarius would also become rigid and could not receive energy. Frozen things lost their toughness and broke easily on impact.

Silver-Blue River was frozen, which meant that the entire Aquarius Magic Formation was frozen!

“Get together! The Aquarius is breaking!” Ye Mei shouted.

The bottom of the bottle was already cracked, let alone the fragile bottleneck. The Eight-Headed Serpent smashed the Aquarius with its huge body.
