Before Lu Shi could even think about who she was,

The Holy Son's new round of magical attacks has arrived.

Space compression

An invisible pressure was trying to crush Lu Shi to death.

Feeling the invisible pressure coming from above, Lu Shi snorted disdainfully.

"Spatial element, this is the correct way to use it."

[Spatial Rhythm]

The invisible pressure released by the Holy Son was relieved, broken down, and eventually dissipated by a more powerful spatial force.

At the same time, Lu Shi clasped his hands together and rubbed his palms together 180 degrees. Instantly, an invisible spatial rhythm swept over the Holy Son.

Sensing the approaching spatial power, a cold glint flashed in the Holy Son's eyes.

Instant teleportation

He leaped directly behind the twenty-odd men in black who were following him.

The spatial vibrations struck, twisting the man in black into a pretzel shape, deforming his entire body.

[Slayed a super-elite human mage; soul weight 3651G, automatically absorbed]

...

Ignoring the weight of the soul, Lu Shi also used teleportation, his nine tails swaying as he moved directly to the side of the Holy Son.

"No!" the Holy Son cried out in despair.

Yet he still put up a stubborn resistance, his entire body covered in dark gold armor, his eyes flashing with white light, his hands drawing silver constellations, and his feet dancing with black light.

This is a fusion of three elements: mind, space, and shadow.

Lu Shi didn't know how powerful this fusion magic was, but she absolutely did not want the Holy Son to release it.

She raised both fists, her left fist a dragon flame and her right fist a phoenix flame. She leaned forward and delivered a series of punches, aiming for the Holy Son's face.

"Protect the Holy Son."

Two black-clad men from the Shadow Society, ranked in the twenties, used Shadow Cloak to block Lu Shi's path. This transformed into their Dragon and Phoenix Flame Fist attack to meet Lu Shi's attack.

Bang bang bang.

With a deafening roar, all the defensive magical artifacts emanating from their bodies were shattered, and their bodies were engulfed in flames. The two let out bloodcurdling screams, writhing and struggling in the air. As the flames burned, their struggles weakened, and their cries of pain gradually diminished until they disappeared completely.

[Two super-level human mages were killed; their souls weighed 7145g and have been automatically absorbed.]

...

In just a short while, Lu Shi had already killed five high-level mages. As expected, Lu Shi, possessed by the Heavenly Fox, could kill high-level mages one by one.

The Holy Son has finally completed his fusion magic.

[Shadow of the Mind's Rift]

A black spatial rift appeared beside Lu Shi, emanating a powerful suction force that threatened to pull her into it. Simultaneously, whispers murmured in her ears, tempting her to abandon her resistance and willingly enter the rift.

"Trying to seduce me with whispers? I'm completely resistant to that!"

Compared to the seductive whispers that altered the weight of one's soul, the whispers in her ear were utterly insignificant. Lu Shi didn't even flinch.

Instant teleportation

As Lu Shi broke free of the control, she moved even closer to the Holy Son. Suddenly, nine tails emerged from behind her, lengthening and instantly wrapping around the Holy Son's entire body, completely enveloping him and his protective magical artifact without leaving a single gap.

"I'll suffocate you, you little bastard." Lu Shi felt a wicked sense of amusement.

"Release the Holy Son."

The remaining five high-level mages from the Shadow Demon Society, seeing that the Holy Son was completely enveloped by Lu Shi's nine tails, all abandoned their current opponents and charged towards Lu Shi together.

"Great, this can be resolved in one go."

Lu Shi smiled as she looked at the five men in black flying towards her.

With a thunderous strike, the five were instantly paralyzed in mid-air, while simultaneously being electrocuted, causing currents to flash across their bodies.

[Divine Retribution Thunder]

【Flame Rain】

Lu Shi then unleashed a high-level lightning and fire spell. With the enhancement of her magical spiritual root, the overload's true damage wiped out all five in one wave, not even allowing a second wave of fiery rain to fall.

[Slayed five super-level human mages, soul weight G, automatically absorbed]

Satisfied, they watched the black ash slowly dissipate in the air.

Less than ten minutes later, Lu Shi received another message.

[Human high-level mage killed, soul weight 4532G, automatically absorbed]

Releasing its nine tails, the Holy Son's body fell from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground.

The Holy Son and ten high-ranking mages.

The entire team was wiped out.

Zhang Junshang flapped his wings and flew over quickly.

Gazing at Lu Shi, whose every move unintentionally exuded allure, he hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back. Lu Shi now appeared both alluring and sinister, like a poisonous poppy—beautiful yet unapproachable.

"What? Are you afraid of me?" Lu Shi's lips curled into a faint smile.

"No, no, it's just that, Teacher Lu, you're now so powerful it's comparable to a forbidden spell!" Zhang Junshang said hesitantly.

"It's just using external aids; I'm not actually that strong. Let's catch up later and focus on resolving the magic circle below as soon as possible." Lu Shi extended her right hand and pointed to the magic circle below.

The crimson array continuously channeled magical power into the vortex in the air, maintaining the stability of the passage.

The surviving Cloud Eagle mages had all gathered in mid-air. They possessed some kind of secret technique, systematically releasing silver-white magic to disrupt the magic circle's operation. It was believed that the blood-red array would soon cease functioning.

“Teacher Lu, don’t worry. Before we came, Master Sheng had already explained the method to break the magic circle. If no one stops us, we can shut it down within half an hour,” Zhang Junshang explained gently.

Lu Shi has not yet responded.

From the direction of the capital, another earth-shattering sound came, seemingly the sound of a tall building collapsing.

Lu Shi couldn't help but rub her forehead. If this magical world didn't have her, it would be doomed sooner or later.

See, wherever you're not, trouble happens.

"Commander Zhang, you continue to shut down the magic array. I'm going back to check." Lu Shi was preparing to rush back to the capital; that was her hometown! It couldn't afford to be lost.

"Teacher Lu, please be careful. I'm here for you!" Zhang Junshang patted his chest and made his promise.

Lu Shi nodded and flew back.

...

Once again, Lu Shi arrived above the woods on the outskirts of the capital. This was the fourth time in a short period of time that he had passed by.

He shook his head, about to fly over quickly.

"Little girl, it seems you've taken something that doesn't belong to you!" A deep and magnetic voice suddenly rang in Lu Shi's ears, like a fine old wine that has been aged for many years, mellow and with an endless aftertaste.

Just hearing the sound made Lu Shixin's heart race.

A person dressed entirely in black, with their face covered by a black mask, suddenly appeared five meters in front of Lu Shi and stopped her.

Lu Shi couldn't even tell what kind of magic he used to appear directly in front of her.

"Little girl, run! That's... one!"

Chairman Long's words rang urgently in Lu Shi's ears.

"Noisy".

The man in black raised one hand. A beam of white light flashed and disappeared, seemingly chasing some kind of fluctuation in the air.

Chairman Long's voice never rang out again.

“That annoying blind man won’t bother us anymore. Little girl, now we can talk. Where are my things?” The man in black scrutinized Lu Shi in her celestial fox form.

"When did I take your things?" Lu Shi was a little confused. She really didn't know what this possibly strongest magician in the world wanted.

"Is that so? Then let's put it another way. Do you have a system that can absorb the souls of human mages and magical beasts...?"
