Chapter 273

The ruins of a magnificent temple fell from the high heavens, its residual power even pinning and killing an Ancient God; the massive corpse spanned three worlds, covering the dome of the Central World.

And that fragment of the temple...

"Holy crap, it's not coming our way, is it?"

Someone trembled.

As it turned out... it really was!

"Holy crap, no, don't! Earth-kun is still just a child of four-point-something billion years!"

People were scared pale; even that Ancient God, no less powerful than the seven gods before, had been pinned and smashed into Earth.

Whether Brother Earth could withstand it, they didn't know, but humanity definitely couldn't.

Destroying the world and blowing up the Earth were ten billion times different.

In other words, as long as there was one-billionth of the power to blow up a star, they were done for, wiped from the earth just like the extinct dinosaurs of prehistoric times.

Holy crap.

Holy King, save us!!!

As if prayers were actually useful, the bad news was that the temple fragment was still rushing toward Earth.

And the good news was that after smashing through dimension after dimension and space after space, the great power permeating the temple was finally exhausted.

It turned into a ball of scorching fire, streaking across the Tokyo sky like a meteor, and that direction...

"Not good, it's coming toward us, run!"

Miroku's expression changed drastically, roaring in terror, and just as he prepared to grab Shippo and run, he found that Inuyasha was already far away, carrying Sango and tucking Shippo under his arm.

The quickest to react was Jianshan Mei, who greased her soles and ran decisively.

Very soon.

The intense wind pressure almost pinned people to the ground; the palace grazed right over their heads, crashing into the towering Mount Mount Fuji.

Subsequently, under the gaze of the whole world, Mount Mount Fuji exploded.

Boom~~

Silent and soundless.

A beam of blood-red light rose from the ground, piercing the clouds and sending tens of millions of tons of volcanic ash and lava into the high heavens.

It was like grand fireworks falling from the nine heavens, stars falling like rain, incomparably beautiful.

Shockwaves formed perfect concentric rings, spreading outward.

Like a tsunami, it leveled everything, uprooting hills, destroying forests, and erasing villages.

Finally.

Everything calmed down.

The number one sacred mountain of Japan, once nearly four thousand meters above sea level, had vanished into history, leaving behind only a sea of lava and that temple stranded on the shore.

Peace.

Then, countless scorching eyes suddenly looked toward the fallen palace, their gazes turning as green as hungry wolves.

Hiss~~

This... is this a battlefield of gods, or a fragment of the temple related to that person?

Even if it was an insignificant part, what kind of opportunity was it for them?

Earlier, as it approached and even passed over their heads, those with strong strength and good eyesight could even clearly see the patterns on the temple's foundation.

"I just took a look, and I broke through..."

Someone stared blankly at the building protruding from the sea of lava.

Just one glance.

It was as if someone had perfectly grafted countless understandable pieces of knowledge onto them, and they just broke through smoothly.

"Me too, I just awakened my magic power."

"And me, I've already been rated as an initiate by the Magic Suppression Agency."

People's eyes turned red with envy.

The next moment.

The world went completely insane.

Sobu High.

Tobe Sho looked at Hayama with burning eyes.

"Hayato?"

Hayama Hayato took a deep breath and walked straight forward: "We won't make it if we rush like this; the Yukinoshita family definitely won't sit still, we'll hitch a ride on their helicopter then."

Only Tobe, behind him, could see his hands clenched tightly behind his back, trembling.

Trembling with excitement.

"Hehe, Hayato is actually quite bothered by it too, not having awakened magic power."

Tobe followed along with a grin.

Beside them, Ebina had already started making phone calls, pulling Miura Yumiko along.

"Holy crap, that palace isn't the Garden of Eden, is it?"

"Question: my broom's flight speed is 900 kilometers per hour, can I make it? Waiting online, it's urgent."

Elaina, who had been lurking in this world for several months without showing any abnormalities, flew up into the sky.

"Hahaha, luckily I'm rich and have a private jet, eat my dust, you peasants!"

The internet was still frantically clamoring, but on the Japanese archipelago, including all over the world, countless streaks of light shot into the sky.

Those on brooms, those on flying carpets, those flying planes... there were even those jumping and hopping like mantises.

Exorcist systems, Cthulhu systems, Jujutsu systems...

Even the big shots who had been lurking steadily for a long time broke their composure; who could resist this?

That was a temple dropped from that kind of battlefield.

Crazy! Everyone was crazy!

Having experienced disaster after disaster that scared their little hearts and nearly wiped them all out, people wanted power even more.

They hoped to no longer be so powerless and desperate.

It became increasingly clear that a magnificent new era was coming; I'm afraid that after this, universal transcendence really wasn't far off.

Not to mention combat power, magic itself was a new form of productivity, and an extremely strong one at that.

Once popularized, the entire human civilization would probably soar as if it had ascended.

The Prefecture.

A supersonic aircraft and a Solomon III that had grown six legs were chasing each other.

"Why the hell are you following me?"

On the plane, protected by supernatural items, the usually gentle Belial cursed wildly.

Damn it, with this grandson following, if there were any good things, who the hell could snatch them?

"Bullshit, is this road yours?"

Solomon III, having grown two more auxiliary limbs, used both hands and feet, sprinting like a leopard above the sound barrier.

In his bloodshot eyes, a crazy flame was burning.

Damn it, just like what was said in the past.

He had already reached the end of this road; going any further was the chasm between human and god.

He had long since given up.

Who knew that now...

Thinking that he had once looked down on magic, he wanted to give himself two slaps.

"Bullshit, go ask around, which road in the Prefecture doesn't have my, Belial's, capital???"

Belial was furious; gritting his teeth and stomping his foot, he directly used one of the Prefecture's latest and greatest magic achievements.

A defensive barrier that could truly withstand the shelling of a main battle tank.

It was their greatest trump card as the controllers of the Prefecture.

His heart ached so much he almost convulsed, but he still released the magic barrier to protect the whole plane.

"X-43A, deploy the reinforcement magic array, accelerate to the maximum for me!!!"
