The Legendary Mage (Alavin)

Chapter 259

With a thunderous roar, the seas churned and overturned as three massive whales, despite their colossal size, surged with increasing speed. They executed a pincer attack, creating a terrifying vortex of destruction that swept up boundless tides, engulfing the towering soul of a king, who stood a kilometer tall. The relentless whirlpool extinguished its radiant light, and deep within the maelstrom, the whales waged a brutal battle against the king's spirit.

The Snow Bunny's flames burned fiercely under the sea, ignoring all waves, and converging into thousands of fiery fists that enveloped the king's spirit. Each punch carried the power of annihilation, shattering the very fabric of space with a relentless barrage that struck the luminous specter of the king. The spirit brandished its sword in furious retaliation, clashing violently against the onslaught.

Many deep-sea creatures had drawn near in anticipation of scavenging, only to be mercilessly torn apart by the ruthless energy. Their blood clouded the abyssal depths.

Eighteen Souls, although mere specters, fought with growing ferocity. Their displayed energy was astonishing to behold. It was hard to imagine the might they possessed after slumbering for millennia. What levels of power had they once wielded, and to what realms had they belonged?

"Have you had enough? A few spirits have held you for so long, where lies the honor of the Northlands?" Lord Warbringer erupted in fury, his dual hundred-meter swords unleashing sky- piercing sword's energy. Their radiant edges severed the tides. In an instant, he cleaved through the king's spirit, shattering its ethereal form into dozens of fragments.

The spirit wailed, dissipating into the depths of the sea.

Wielding his massive swords, Lord Warbringer charged toward the abyssal depths. His sword's energy was fierce and far-reaching, striking once more at the ancient kingdom's barrier.

The Cobalt Strike Commander and the others exerted their full might, unleashing their strongest Combat Magic in a vicious fight against the king’s spirit.

Eventually, the king’s spirit could no longer withstand the assault and retreated. Their luminous forms exchanged glances from afar before vanishing without a trace.

“Where have they gone?” The Golden Eagle scanned the sea floor.

“They might have returned to the ancient kingdom. Let’s join forces and break the seal.” The Cobalt Strike Commander released a dazzling array of eight powerful beams, each tens of meters thick, weaving together in a relentless surge that pierced the dark seabed and struck the kingdom's barrier.

The other mighty warriors, not to be outdone, launched their fiercest attacks.

With a thunderous rumble, the ancient barrier finally shook, cracks spread rapidly and soon extended over a range of ten thousand meters.

The Cobalt Strike Commander and the others paused briefly, wary of each other, then charged toward the ancient barrier like eighteen bolts of lightning. Their impacts forcibly shattered a section and breached the kingdom.

The vast barrier, now like shattered glass, cascaded down. The surging tides rushed backward and battered the countless structures of the kingdom that had slumbered for ten thousand years. It now faced its second cataclysmic downfall.

Mercenaries and sea creatures, both in the depths and along the coast, no longer hesitated and swarmed in, racing toward Atlantis.

"What state is it in? Where have the king's spirits gone?" Alavin furrowed his brow in search. The skies, now turbulent with clouds, thunder, lightning, and various specters everywhere, made it

difficult to pinpoint the retreating spirits.

The Chained Spirit paused for a long while, finally declaring, "Fifteen leagues to the south, to the sea! The king's spirits are opening the Royal Mausoleum!"

Alavin nodded to Godfred. "Take good care of Mariela for me. I need to step out for a moment."

"Don't think you can shake me off that easily," Mariela responded dryly, unable to believe that was the best excuse he could come up with.

"Mariela, please wait. I'll be right back," Alavin chuckled, then turned and dashed into the dense forest, sprinting at his swiftest pace.

"Alavin!" Mariela was about to chase after him but was stopped by Godfred. "Please don't make this hard for me, Miss Mariela. Just be patient."

"Out of my way!" Mariela snapped with frustration.

"Lord Alavin will return shortly."

"Are you telling me to wait while Alavin is out risking his life? What's more important to you, my safety or Alavin's life?"

Godfred chuckled sheepishly. "Lord Alavin is important, and so are oyu."

"Move aside!" Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Mariela was in a hurry to follow, but Godfred stubbornly blocked her way.
