I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Although it took some time, Lis soon arrived before the hall.

Just as he approached, Lis could feel the abundant magic power surrounding the hall.

In Lis's eyes, the periphery of the hall was enveloped by a pale golden magic barrier, with specks of golden electric light flickering on the barrier.

Though there was no dangerous aura, the intensity of the barrier before him was clearly above the legendary level; naturally, the White Dove Trading Team's exploration team lacked the ability to break this barrier.

Lis ascended the steps, looking into the hall.

An almost identical scene to the one Mora had drawn appeared before Lis: a solitary, slightly damaged black magic wand was embedded in the center of the hall's ground.

The first moment Lis saw the wand, it was as if he saw countless golden thunders wildly leaping in the space before him, filled with a violent and destructive aura.

He had never seen a wand with such a unique aura before.

Moreover, upon seeing this wand, Lis could also confirm that it was indeed a legendary wand, quite remarkable even among legendary-level wands.

At least stronger than any wand Lis had seen before...

Sphinx's own Gaia's Anger doesn't count; that wand was practically no different from a divine artifact.

Lis nodded, then stepped into the hall.

Approaching the barrier, Lis gently raised his right hand, an extremely powerful force began to condense in his hand.

When he had sent his avatar to investigate earlier, he noticed that the barrier seemed to be specially set to lure his true self here.

No notable features and no obvious weaknesses, it could only be forcibly broken through with powerful magic, otherwise, one could only slowly wear out the magic within the barrier.

The opponent went to great lengths to draw him out.

At this point, Lis didn't hesitate, directly compressing the terrifying magic into the size of an egg and throwing it at the barrier before him.

Under Lis's powerful magical attack, the originally empty surroundings of the hall revealed a layer of pale golden barrier.

The semi-spherical barrier protected the hall like an overturned bowl, and the spot where Lis attacked continuously dented inward, as if under an extremely terrifying pressure.

The barrier before him couldn't hold for a few breaths, countless glass-like cracks appeared on the barrier, finally, with a crisp humming sound, the entire barrier was directly breached by Lis.

After successfully breaking the barrier, Lis waved his hand to dispel the residual magic attack.

No movement yet, was the setup on that wand?

Lis paused for a moment after breaking the magic barrier, but the expected attack didn't arrive, nor did anything abnormal appear.

Looking at the wand before him, Lis stepped towards it.

As he approached, Lis could clearly feel the powerful magical fluctuations emitted by the black wand before him, along with a dense aura of thunder magic.

Just as before, the wand before him should be a legendary wand that strengthens thunder magic.

Despite this, Lis noticed the wand's damage was quite severe, although the magical fluctuations were strong, there was a chaotic, disorderly feel.

Lis paid it no mind.

In any case, this wand is just an add-on.

Stronger than the legendary wand he crafted himself, but only slightly stronger.

Perhaps the opponent was aware of this, so they specifically put it out as bait.

Lis remained indifferent, directly stepping into the hall, heading towards the black wand.

Standing in front of the wand, he carefully examined it, confirming no abnormalities before reaching out to pull out the wand.

And as Lis's right hand grasped the black wand, several inexplicable radiances suddenly appeared from the wand, instantly merging into Lis's right hand.

Seeing this, Lis "appropriately" showed a hint of surprise, without hesitation he stored the black wand into the storage ring.

Without hesitation, Lis waved his left hand forward, and under the surge of magic, he broke the air before him, revealing a pitch-black space rift behind it.

And just then, an invisible wave spread out from the upper space of the hall.

The space rift before Lis twisted, as if erased by an invisible hand, instantly stabilizing.

In Lis's perception, the space around him seemed frozen, even spatial fluctuations vanished without a trace.

Lis clearly perceived this wasn't any space locking spell, but directly using extremely powerful force to suppress this space.

This higher-level power left Lis, who was adept at space magic, without any means to break the space before him.

At the same time, Lis's system panel popped out with densely packed notifications.

-----------------

Lis looked at the panel's notifications and exclaimed what a fine situation.

Besides those three most powerful negative statuses, there were numerous abnormal statuses on him.

At the same time, the various specialties on him continued to grant immunity against these states, resisting various abnormal statuses.

He kept using various spells and divine arts, purifying the negative states on himself.

After a slight adjustment, Lis felt much lighter.

Most abnormal statuses were directly canceled by Lis, but the three statuses from the Evil God's divine arts remained unmoved.

Even though Lis, a World Tree Favored, possessed great resistance, the difference in rank left him helpless.

Just then, three figures appeared before Lis.

Noting the three figures, Lis showed no courtesy, directly gripping the newly acquired wand, letting wild magic power surge forth, manifesting as countless fiery fireballs blasting at the three figures.

Boom!

The hall, deprived of its magic barrier, couldn't withstand the terrifying assault, crumbling and melting into a red-hot molten region.

Lis indifferently flew above the ruins, multicolored magic radiance cloaking him, forming layers of magic shields.

Beneath him, the region that was once ruins almost completely vanished under his attack, even the persistent gray mist was utterly retreating into the distance.

"Oh dear, striking so viciously, no matter how handsome you are, girls won't fancy that!"

A gentle, teasing voice sounded beside Lis's ear, Lis turned abruptly, seeing the charming, scantily adorned girl standing behind him.

Gripping a thorny whip in her right hand, Juliana's left hand seemed illusory, directly penetrating through the shields surrounding Lis's body, reaching for his face.

The girl's face flushed red, her gaze towards Lis full of rich affection, as if wanting to lovingly caress a lover's face.

Seeing this, Lis didn't hesitate, abruptly turned.

His right leg drew a beautiful arc, fiercely kicking the girl's surprised delicate face.
