Its buildings had crumbled and the streets had been carpeted with rivers of blood. The stench of death hung heavy in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Corpses of corrupted magical beasts were strewn across the cobblestoned streets. The reflection of the twin moons on the crimson liquid created a dazzling yet dreadful scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a cold whisper reverberated in every corner of the town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Blossom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, a spectacular change began to take place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the chaos and carnage, the blood-soaked streets suddenly trembled. And then, small white buds started to emerge from the crimson ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite growing on land stained by blood, these white buds remained untainted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was breathtaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was otherwordly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flower buds pushed toward the sky, and in mere moments, they bloomed into magnificence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>White lotus flowers, pure and holy, grew against the stark contrast to the surrounding bloodbath and darkness. Their pristine petals were delicate, gracefully unfurling and glowing with an ethereal light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the white lotuses bloomed, the oppressive atmosphere became calmer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The field of white lotuses spread rapidly, and within moments, it had covered every street in Omai. It was like this small town had suddenly been covered in a soft, white blanket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oswald's long blade was only inches away from piercing Valerian's head when all of a sudden this drastic transformation took place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart was overwhelmed by terror at this sudden change, and he couldn't help but retreat a few steps, looking around in alarm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell is happening?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hemingway was the same. For a moment, his mind turned blank and his eyes glazed over. Realizing this, he was in an extremely flustered state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"T-This is not normal,\" he blurted out in panic. \"What the hell are these flowers?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white lotuses swayed gently in the nonexistent breeze. They emitted a faint yet sweet fragrance that was like the fresh breath of life amidst so much death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valerian weakly opened his eyes. When he gazed at the lotuses growing on the ground right before him, his yellow pupils constricted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It can't be!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward and Lisa, who were barely able to stay conscious after sustaining so many life-threatening injuries throughout the night, couldn't help but be astounded by this scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The field of white lotuses that lay before them soothed their minds and removed whatever negative thoughts they had about their impending doom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone that was still drawing breath in the town of Omai was overcome by a feeling of unprecedented calm. They felt like they were dreaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them simultaneously turned their heads in the direction of the town's central square. There, a raven-haired youth was standing tall, his aura similar to that of the white lotuses around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, everyone understood that the cause of this sudden change was none other than that young man!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oswald's eyes trembled in fear and a drop of sweat trickled down his forehead when he saw the scene of Adam standing amidst the sea of flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the white lotuses in the vicinity seemed like they were gently bowing toward this youth as if acknowledging him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What… what has he done?!\" Oswald muttered in apprehension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hemingway's mouth was agape. He couldn't speak a word. When he glanced at Adam, he felt vastly inferior to him for some reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had this sudden urge to lower his head toward the youth. When Hemingway realized this, he was stunned. He screamed inwardly, What's happening to me?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, everyone witnessed a magical scene take place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They saw Adam slowly raise his hands. This caused all the white lotuses to tremble ever so slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam's hands slowly rose higher and higher, causing the flowers' trembling to grow more and more intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Oswald and Hemingway's hearts pounded wildly in their chests. Terror flooded their veins and an intense foreboding feeling welled up inside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to move but found that they could not. They could only helplessly stare as Adam's arms rose higher and higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until finally…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The raven-haired youth's arms shuddered violently before falling weakly to his sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following that, the trembling of the white lotuses also ceased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone watched with bated breaths as the field of white lotuses began to glow with a resplendent light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the pristine white petals of the countless flowers slowly dissipated into tiny motes of light. The flowers started to dissolve slowly but surely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white motes of light drifted lazily in the air, floating upward like fireflies at sunset. As these motes ascended, they left behind a soft trail of light, like that of a comet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, their lights were gradually extinguished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The streets of Omai reverted to their blood-stained state. The rivers of blood and the heaps of corpses now seemed even more pronounced in the absence of the white lotuses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Omai now felt cold and desolate yet again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The premonition that the two Rank 2 Magi felt in their hearts subsided with the disappearance of the flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oswald's mind suddenly cleared up and he felt like he could move again. With a shocked look on his face, he glanced around and saw that everything had returned to normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned toward Adam and saw that the youth was weakly standing amidst a sea of corpses with a defeated look on his pale face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that, Oswald's lips curled up into a menacing grin, \"Heh, so it was nothing, after all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever he attempted to do, it looks like he failed,\" Hemingway nodded with a solemn expression, fear still lingering in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sudden appearance of the white lotuses had caused these two Magi to feel immense horror. They had never felt so much dread in their long lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, something was different about those flowers that Adam had just summoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The greed in their hearts grew exponentially as they thought of acquiring whatever it was that had allowed Adam to display such a technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If that is the case.\" Oswald's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. \"Let's just kill them all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the man conjured a sharp blade and viciously thrust it into Valerian's head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SPLURT!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade pierced through the young dragon's scales and instantly killed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valerian's topaz eyes flashed with sorrow and regret as darkness finally claimed him. In his final moments, he thought to himself,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You did it…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at what cost?\u003C\u002Fp>",1064,"2026-05-29T04:44:34.705Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.309Z",1,"novelbin.me","c9cf7db6b757819b24684b8be233e16572c72e9571e9c464c4831af485c6e7b9","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-338","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-500",1765,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-cover.jpg"]
