Reynold trembled slightly, but was soon overwhelmed by anger.

It was normal for humans to be overwhelmed by rage when they lost control of their emotions. They would react like an animal, biting at their enemy subconsciously when their life was in danger, and they had completely lost their composure.

Reynold flew toward Zhan Kong, surrounded by a rotating field of ice. The white ice filled the Sacred City, as if a great snowstorm was pouring down heavily after something disrupted its flow.

White crystalline dust drifted in the wind. The people below could no longer see the mirrored Sacred City clearly. They only knew the snow that surrounded Zhan Kong was accompanied by terrifying danger.

The ice spun even faster, the white curtain was moving slowly, like a huge cloud. The piercing cold spread from the mirrored Sacred City to the western side of the Alps, further worsening the terrible weather.

The plants froze as the mountain there was covered in thick snow. The city was turning into ice, too. Even the air was about to freeze and turn into a boundless transparent crystal!

The golden dragon roared amid the snow, barely visible. A blinding ray of Light sprang from the thick white cloud and into the sky. The people guessed the golden dragon was unleashing its power, but they could not tell whether the Emperor was injured or taken out by the attack.

An elegant but oddly-sounding chime echoed out of nowhere. The snow began to dissipate rapidly.

It felt like the chime contained a purifying Sanskrit. Both the white cloud and the Light emitted by the golden dragon disappeared as the chime faded away.

The mirrored Sacred City cleared up, allowing the people on the ground to see into it.

The Undead Emperor had moved another two kilometers closer to the Sacred Residence. Behind him, Reynold was kneeling on the ground with his back to the Undead Emperor.

Sweat was pouring down from Reynold’s head like melting ice. His battle outfit was soon soaked. The spectacular ice field was just like a circus trick, nothing impressive after it was exposed.

The strange chime had stopped Reynold’s Ice Magic before it could reach its maximum potential. His enemy had discovered the weak point of the spell and destroyed it before it even started.

The chime also served as Reynold’s burial song. More cold sweat surfaced on Reynold’s forehead. He was completely soaked in cold water, and his eyes were filled with pain.

Soon, liquid was pouring out of his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, but this time, it was no longer sweat, it was blood.

The chime’s note had crushed his organs. He knew his life was draining away. He could barely see the black figure who was approaching him disdainfully through his blurred eyes.

The enemy could easily end his life, yet he was still forced to kneel on the ground miserably.

“Isn’t Master Reynold a Forbidden Mage?”

“How is this possible…”

The Holy Court Mages and the Judicator were stunned.

Reynold was a Forbidden Mage. A Forbidden Mage was supposed to be equal to the Emperor level, so why did it feel like there was such a huge difference in their strength?

“Is the golden dragon still around?”

“As long as the golden dragon hasn’t fallen, Master Reynold is its envoy!”

Reynold had fallen, but the people still had hope as long as the golden dragon was still circling the battlefield. Reynold’s strongest ability was Summoning the dragon from the other plane. The golden dragon was his Forbidden Curse!

More scales of the golden dragon shattered into pieces. It was no longer proud and aloof, staring at Zhan Kong like he was a dangerous enemy.

Previously, the golden dragon had stood in front of Zhan Kong on the main street and spread its wings, as if it was warning Zhan Kong not to take half a foot more forward.

Now, the golden dragon could only circle around Zhan Kong in the air as he continued to approach the Sacred Residence. The golden dragon needed time to catch its breath and looked for the next opportunity to attack.

The Sacred City Mages were still gathering at the crossroads. They stood in rows and lined up in Formations as they waited for Zhan Kong’s arrival.

Blue imprints spread across the ground of the mirrored Sacred City. The people on the ground in the real Sacred City could clearly see them as they grew brighter. The Sacred City Mages had set up a shocking trap!

The magic trap used the complicated streets of the Sacred City as orbits to transfer its energy. The tall buildings and towers served as gathering points along the paths. The blue imprints looked like the map of an ancient and mysterious city, containing an unknown godly power!

The Sacred City Mages began to chant. Glowing Runes rose into the air, each filled with a special magic, and the imprints on the ground grew even brighter.

“Isn’t that the Flower of the Sacred City?”

The people were shocked to see a blue sunflower form as the imprints lit up.

They had never seen such a huge sunflower. Even the old folks who had lived in the Sacred City for more than forty years never realized the distribution of the streets, buildings, and churches followed the outline of their city’s chosen flower. When the energy of the Plant Element flowed through the network, the city would crawl with its branches, leaves, and stem.

When the flower blossomed, its powerful magic-sealing energy rapidly spread through every opening and alley like pollen!

Its roots and stem continued to grow, surrounding Zhan Kong like soldiers in an orderly fashion.

The fragrance of the flower was driving away the presence of death around Zhan Kong. His robe started rusting, as if it was being oxygenized. The scent of the flower was obviously effective against Darkness Creatures!

“Demon Sealing Sunflower!”

Zhan Kong finally stopped moving when the sunflower the size of a whole city appeared. He had walked right into a dangerous trap. His hollow eyes were able to see everything that was about to happen. The flower grew rapidly with every step he took!
