Throne of Magical Arcana Chapter 620

Chapter 620: 620
Before Lucien said anything, the outrageous air had broken in . One of the black walls in the maze was fiercely pushed open a big hole, and the mummy wearing the gold crown walked out,
“Both of you die here!”
The miasma surrounding the primordial mummy filled the entire space, preventing Lucien’s and Klaus’ spiritual power from reaching further . It felt like a long time exposure to the miasma would even drain their spiritual power!
Hooooooo!
While furiously howling, the primordial mummy suddenly grew ten times bigger until it was as huge as a giant . In comparison, Lucien and Klaus were as tiny as two little ants .
Then the wild wind came .
The fierce wind came from the mummy’s two fists continuously hitting the ground over and over again like two giant hammers! The black stone pillars collapsed one by one – It would take Lucien quite a while to take down one of the pillars using Vengeful Gaze several times!
“Elemental Protection!” Having no time for transformation, Lucien instantly activated the defense spell the Robe of Grand Arcanists contained .
Colorful element light spots congregated in front of him and formed a half-transparent light shield .
Meanwhile, his right hand stroked the pocket watch and disrupted the flow of time .
“Alchemy Barrier!” Klaus said out .
He had just gone through a bitter fight, and thus there was now a big difference between a level-three legendary and him . Therefore, he also chose to cast the defense spell that he was best at which sheltered him in a iron-black small fortress .
The giant primordial mummy ran through the disturbed time currents . The power of the currents made it slightly deviate from its target, but it still knew what it was heading for!
Bang! The fist as huge as a small hill encircled by fierce blasts hit Lucien and Klaus .
Lucien’s elemental protection cracked, and the great power malevolently threw Lucien at the black wall behind him . Blood spilling out from his mouth, Lucien felt his soul was going through a bad concussion .
The iron-black fortress also cracked . Its many magic circles failed to resist the outrageous power .
Klaus’s defense lasted a second longer, and then the blast also threw him at the same, half-broken wall .
Then Lucien saw the sky – cloudy and grey, but it was the sky! He was out of the temple now! Beside his hand, he suddenly felt the strange, transcendent power, as if next to him there was another world .
Lucien suddenly felt thrilled . He extended his spiritual power out and he “saw” a magnificent black palace whose top directly reached into the sky .
The gate of the palace opened . In the middle, there were layers of hanging veils . Behind the veils, there were countless pale faces with different looks on them, looking rather horrifying .
“Furnace of Souls!” Klaus exclaimed in the telepathic bond, which confirmed Lucien’s guess .
They got lucky here . The punch from the mummy just helped them find the furnace .
Hooooooo!
The primordial mummy followed them closely, leaving them no chance to catch a breath . The black miasma surrounding it was like the sickle of Death, a sign for their doomed destiny .
It rushed at them at great speed . The last hundred meters was just the mummy’s one single stride!

At this time, the pocket watch in Lucien’s hand dimly lit up . Lucien’s middle finger pressed on it .
Click . A black hemisphere appeared above the primordial mummy and then dropped onto it . It seemed that the hemisphere was in fact incredibly heavy since the giant mummy’s back was now slightly bending forward . It started moving slowly, as if it was wearing a set of shackles .
Seizing the chance, Lucien cast transformation . His eyes lit up, his muscles bulging, Lucien raised the small but thick shield using his left hand to protect Klaus and himself .
“Flood Devastator!” Klaus blurted out .
The grey sky suddenly sparkled . Then, a big hole appeared and black water poured out, drowning the mummy .
For most mummies, they could cause extreme droughts and resist water magic . However, if powerful enough, water magic could also be their weaknesses .
When the flood retreated and left everything on the ground in chaos, the primordial mummy remained totally intact, even including the miasma surrounding it .
Its body bulged again . Roaring furiously, the mummy king cracked the black hemisphere and then its right foot stamped on Lucien and Klaus .
Bang! In the deep, deafening noise, Lucien and Klaus were being protected by the invisible waves in the air, and thus they were not hurt at all .
“Burning Waterfall!” Klaus decided to use the legendary flame spell – If water did not work, then he’d try fire!
The ground cracked with an illusionary, big gap, and the black and white flames surged out all the way up into the sky . The extreme high temperature could even melt the black tiles .
The thick fire pillar caged the primordial mummy and the fire burnt out the monster’s bitterest cry . However, when the fire pillar disappeared, although most of the black miasma disappeared and the creepy bandages were burnt black, the mummy was still “alive”!
“At least a dozen more Burning Waterfalls to go… if it’s not recovering too fast…” Through Telepathic bond, Klaus asked Lucien, “How long can you stand using that shield?”
Before he could say more, Klaus saw the miasma quickly gathering back .
The defense was insane!
Lucien’s arms were already feeling sore, “Like this, maybe three minutes… It’s heavy . ”
The Shield of Truth was also reaching its limit .
“Hellish Ball!”
“The Gloss of the Goddess of Magic!”
…
A series of legendary spells were cast by Klaus, but none of them severely hurt the primordial mummy . Because of the difference between their ranks, the spells did not work very well!
The primordial mummy’s punches were like raindrops, making Lucien’s arms extremely sore .
The invisible waves protecting them were also going to crack at any time .
Fortunately, the primordial mummy’s attacks were quite predictable . The mummy’s horrible defense and fighting power were at the cost of the mysterious and unpredictable fighting tact . Its style was completely straightforward and rough .
Klaus took out a puppet from his pocket and threw it at the primordial mummy .
The puppet quickly ballooned into a gold golem . The golem could release toxic flames and smog, and had the same amazing defense and fighting skills .
Also, Klaus summoned his demiplane, Alchemy Paradise . Thus, after the projection landed, the gold golem got a great support . Countless other golems, puppets, and jackstraws followed the golem and charged down the battlefield .

Bang! Crack! Clap! Klaus closed his eyes for a second as he did not want to see the scene .
A few seconds later, the golem together with its allies had been crushed into pieces by the primordial mummy . They were not at all on the same level .
“I’ll take down its defense . Then it’ll be your turn . ” said Klaus to Lucien through the bond .
He took a deep breath, knowing that it would be their last chance . If they did not hurry up, when the undead army caught up, everything would be too late .
Lucien nodded rather seriously . He did not say anything, but Klaus could rely on him .
Klaus took out another puppet from his pouch . The puppet was a fine doll with long, black hair and a beautiful, round face . Suddenly, the doll opened her eyes and they directly looked into the primordial mummy’s red eyes .
Somehow, Lucien felt that many invisible threads had fallen onto the primordial mummy and the doll, linking them together by all the joints .
“Replica Puppet!”
This was the old and mysterious spell casting, the black-haired doll started twitching in a creepy way . Then the filthy bandages covered her, and her eyes became bloody red . Within seconds, the puppet had turned into a mini-sized primordial mummy!
Hooooooo!
Sensing the great danger, the primordial mummy burst out horribly screaming, and its punches went crazy . However, facing the Shield of Truth, the most powerful level-three legendary defense, it would take the mummy a little while to fully break it .
Blood spilled out from the corner of Klaus’s mouth . His right hand now looked extremely pale as if it had died . He lifted his right hand and gently poked at the mummy puppet with one finger .
Silently, the miasma started dissipating, and the filthy bandages started falling .
The mummy cried bitterly, and its right fist punched out with terrible momentum . However, this time the fist’s target was not Lucien’s shield, but Klaus .
The right fist of the mummy punched at Klaus’s chest badly .
Klaus’s body burst out rays of light . A series of magic effects including Spell Trigger, Magic Order, and Spell Sequencer came into effect . They managed to offset most of the power .
Meanwhile, Klaus disappeared from where he was and in the next second showed up again in front of the furnace . The dodge was narrow .
Despite this, Klaus did not slow down his movements . His finger poked at the puppet again, and his blood also spilled on it .
The filthy bandages completely snapped!
The primordial mummy had given up targeting Lucien . With a huge stride, it was coming for Klaus!
At this time, Lucien lifted his right hand, in which a silver pocket watch was shining . Then he pressed on it .
Crack!
The primordial mummy stopped moving . The entire world stopped .
Moon Timer floating in the air following its owner, Lucien pulled out his Sword of Truth and hacked at the mummy using all his strength six to seven times in succession . His target was the wound he left earlier which had not yet fully recovered .
Then the lapse of time resumed . The colors had come back as well .
After the cold flashes from the blade, the primordial mummy screamed in great agony . The scream made the entire space shake . Klaus’s eyes and ears started bleeding because of it .
Lucien was under the protection of his shield . Therefore, he was not hurt .
In the primordial mummy’s chest, the deep cut had penetrated its iron-black, rotten body . And the cut was growing bigger and bigger .
Its evil red eyes turned to stare at Lucien . Out of bitter rage, the mummy punched at Lucien .
But it never finished this last punch . Before its fist reached Lucien, the mummy’s upper body had split into pieces . The rotten pieces of flesh dropped onto the ground and corrupted into piles of pus and blood .
Lucien’s heart was filled with wild joy so intense that he could not use any words to describe . This thing was insane! They had tried their best and finally killed it!
The bandages quickly dissolved in the blood and pus piles, but the gold crown was still shining .
Holding the Shield of Truth, Lucien went up and picked the crown up . He was going to talk with Klaus to see how they were going to split the trophy after they got out .
The fight caused Klaus a lot, including the legendary puppet that he had been hiding for many years . Releasing a long sigh, Klaus’s nerves finally relaxed a little bit .
Turning around, he saw the veils behind which countless souls were hiding . Klaus reached out his hand, trying to touch it, to understand the mysterious furnace’s secret .
“Furnace of Souls…” Klaus murmured in low voice out of fascination .
Lucien reminded him through the telepathic bond, “Watch out . The rest of the undead can catch up at any time . Cast your defenses again first . ”
Lucien was right . Klaus dropped his hands and started recasting the layers of spells on himself . Meanwhile, he was still staring at the furnace contentedly .
“Light of Judgment!”
Suddenly, the solemn voice arrived . A beam of divine light dropped from the rooftop and directly hit Klaus!
“Sinner! Confess yourself in hell!”
In the divine light, Klaus’s body started dissolving . He turned to look in the other direction, and it was sheer shock that was on his face . He could not believe that his spiritual power and searching spells had totally missed him!
Then his consciousness started fading . He had seen the end of his life .
His vision becoming blurry, but Furnace of Souls was still within his sight . He did not regret . He saw the furnace .
In this enthusiasm, Klaus’s body and soul dissolved in the air .
This was totally out of Lucien’s expectation . Perhaps it was because he had turned himself into a legendary knight, and hence his willpower frontier had become less thorough .
In great shock and fury, Lucien turned around and saw a young man in a white robe . He had short, linen-colored hair, and his light red eyes were filled with great sarcasm . His right hand reached out and was drawing a cross in front of his chest .
The vertical bar was shorter, and the horizontal longer!

Beyond the Veil
Martin's life would never be the same. He somehow survived a massacre by shady men in black, only to discover they were conspiring with the police. What was he going to do now? But where one life ends, another life begins. One that will learn of magic, and the world beyond the veil. This is a complete rewrite of my first story, The World Beyond the Veil. This is not the same story. Not even a single sentence has been copy-pasted from the original fiction. Readers of the original will recognize a lot of elements, but there are more and more differences as the story progresses. The fiction is planned as a trilogy. The first volume is published. Regarding one of the tags:Sexual Content: There are no explicit sex scenes in the story. On the other hand, it is definitely a story meant for an adult audience, with plenty of references to sex and genitalia. If you're not comfortable with that, maybe steer away from this story. I am very interested in feedback. Let me know if you spot a plot hole or something else that seem off to you.
