Chapter 1159

"I think the key point is that he controls two laws—the Flame Lord has mastered two laws! This is simply astonishing!"

Another god wore an expression of shock.

These gods were truly stunned.

Even more astonished than them were the ancient gods watching this battle.

"He controls two laws!"

One ancient god's will carried unmistakable shock.

"Last time Neer fought the Flame Lord, the Flame Lord's divine body collapsed immediately after activating one law—it was clearly a Level 16 divine body. No one expected it to rise to Level 18 so quickly. If so, his divine core must already be Level 18. This rate of advancement is simply unimaginable."

Another ancient god spoke.

"We must eliminate him. If he continues growing like this, the threat to us will be too great."

A third ancient god said.

"The Flame Lord and Venerable Tianlan are now truly fighting to the death. Niku, go—retrieve your power. When their battle ends, strike immediately. Even with a Level 18 divine body, the burden of activating laws must be immense. This is your chance."

"Your odds are high, but to be safe, we will be ready to awaken one of those few at any moment. If you falter, hold him off briefly—once that one awakens, the Flame Lord's Day of Death will come."

The ancient gods spoke one after another.

"Leave it to me!"

The ancient god Niku's gaze glinted with coldness.

Then, from within a divine realm, came a rumbling roar.

Immediately after, a massive palace rose from beneath the Heavenly Realm.

"Boom!"

From within the palace, a colossal ancient god stepped forward.

After stepping out of the palace, this ancient god tore open a passage to a long-forgotten realm.

The stronger an ancient god, the faster their power leaks away, and the harder it is to merge with the current Heavenly Realm.

Thus, some ancient gods chose to seal their power far from the Heavenly Realm.

Before reclaiming these powers, their strength might equal that of a powerful fourth-tier being.

But once they reclaim their power, their divine energy will surge forward, reaching the level of Law Lords.

The ancient god Niku is precisely one who sealed away most of his own power!

Now, he would reclaim that power, then journey to the Heavenly Realm, and strike a decisive ambush during the Flame Lord's exhaustion after his battle with Venerable Tianlan—to slay the Flame Lord!
