He had never seen them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when that headless titan corpse walked, his heart stopped beating for a moment as an overwhelming sense of oppression crushed his very soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fury burning his soul came to a halt and the realization of his current situation set in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'W-What the fuck are they…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three phantoms were floating above the ground, each of them as tall and wide as a hundred-storey corporate office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scepter engraved with unknown runes and the dice whose sides change every moment, enlarged to the size of a small moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, they all paled in front of the enormous titan. Each of his fists was as large as Earth's moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he was tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So tall…that if he put his feet on Earth, he'd touch the moon with his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was unlike any other creature Varian experienced to date. Even more overwhelming than the enormity of this monster was its aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian felt like a speck of dust floating in front of a blazing sun, about to be melted away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the most insignificant he had ever felt in his life. Even when he remained unawakened for years and hit rock bottom, he hadn't felt this terrible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I…am nothing…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All pride melted away, leaving him shaking as the overwhelming aura played with him as it placed. He stood like a grass blade in a fierce wind, unable to resist and out of control of his own future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'W-What…' Varian gritted his teeth and tried to raise his head, to at least look up at this opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His bones began to creak and a terrible pain spread from his neck. The muscles around his neck started to break down and blood spilled out of his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the healing powers he was so proud of were severely suppressed under this monstrosity and were barely working.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Varian struggled more and more, his condition grew worse and worse. He reached a point where trying to raise his neck any further would mean his head would leave his torso.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'D-Damn it!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The System, witnessing all this, secretly sighed in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were things it could do now, but it'd only to a worse outcome. The temporary good it could achieve, whatever it might be, would be thoroughly dwarfed by the future that'd result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, the thing you want to fight against existed for more than 10,000 years. And you? You're not even 20.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian closed his eyes and exhaled deeply as if he was letting out frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of the powerhouses made him feel so helpless. That's why he was so desperate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to prove that he wasn't helpless. Even if it was something as small as raising his head, he was in control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even that became an unattainable aspiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if none of his strength, experience, and wisdom could ever amount to anything in front of that divinity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[This isn't a true divine ranker. It's just a corpse with some traces of divinity. Its strength is at the edges of celestial boundaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the woman titled Calamity, she too is at the edge of celestial boundaries, about to become a divine being. This corpse is significantly weaker than the woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She just never used her full power to look through you, so you didn't feel the suppression from her.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'…I guess I was damn lucky.' Varian shuddered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"DIE!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A palm covered the sky and fell down, like the divine judgment announcing the end of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three phantoms attacked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blinding light exploded out of their aura and blocked Varian from even watching what was going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It all happened in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One moment, Varian was watching a palm fall down and the very next, a blinding explosion of three different colors swept the land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the heirs were weak, the phantoms used some barriers and diverted the fight away from them. In a sense, even a thousandth of the force didn't leak out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, Varian was swept away like he was hit by a tornado, his bones breaking and his body twisting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lights flashed again and again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's perception of time began to dull and his consciousness was struggling to hold on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'F-Fuck!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian upgraded his Adept to rank 6 temporarily and made some subtle but critical changes to his body, ensuring him the best chances in the environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then, he lost consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he opened his eyes, all he could see was endless cracks in the space, as if black broken mirrors were floating around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than a billion miles away, the Headless corpse was on its knee. The phantoms were fading and the artifacts were cracking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guardian was thrown somewhere far away, a mysterious light was leaking out of its body, protecting it and repairing its damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian could almost swear he saw something like blood leaking out of it for a moment but when he focused again, there was no such thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fire that was forcibly doused started burning again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There's a chance that Sarah's wedding ring was just stolen. But why would anyone do that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the best thing Varian could do at that time, but it could only resist a rank 2 attack. It had no use for someone as strong as this guardian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only reason the guardian had it was as a trophy. Trophy of the predator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's mind went into overdrive and he saw Sarah lying on this same floor, blood leaking out her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She struggled to hold onto her last breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she was staring into the distance, waiting for a help that never came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Arghhhhhh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rage engulfed Varian and he reached into his storage ring, deciding to unleash the one thing that he kept as his trump card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, Don't! Wait! Just a moment! Please stop!] The System screamed in his mind, its usual voice now quivering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-Why?\" Varian gritted his teeth, anger evident in his tone. \"Why should I stop?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if answering his question, boisterous laughter resounded throughout the space. The endless space turned purple and an aura tsunami swept everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the roar of a thousand thunders, a voice, old and deep, declared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My time has finally come. The world will now see the birth of a new god.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1060,"2026-06-06T07:58:44.604Z",1,"novelbin.me","08f202d85b65befc4e81759883644fd0debcc52e1f5e234db9dd647eecc47a3b","divine-path-system-chapter-1229","divine-path-system-chapter-1227",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
