Chapter 127: Willpower Might Reward
"Yoyuan Crystal?" The main god groups naturally already knew the Supreme God's mission, and when the Destruction Lord said it, the other main gods' divine awareness also swept over.
They had also seen the Supreme God's mirror before; whether in aura or shape, it was very similar to the Yoyuan Crystal, and whether it was a main divine artifact, they could tell at a glance.
All the Lords felt some fluctuation in their external energy; with the Supreme God's relic appearing, a contest was inevitable. As for the mid‑rank and lower‑rank main god groups, most had no opinion, though there were exceptions.
"Elder, shall we fight for it?" the White Tiger Main God transmitted his voice among the Four Sacred Beasts.
The Azure Dragon Main God Lei Ding thought for a moment and said, "Wait. Our four signature moves are powerful but slow; we may not get the chance. Yet if luck is on our side, we shouldn't let any opportunity slip."
"Fine." the Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise also agreed.
The Death Lord also looked at the distant Yoyuan Crystal, immediately transmitted to Shawn, "Shawn, have Dan Ningdon seize the relic, and under no circumstances use your energy to fight for it. During the planar decisive battle, no Main God's power may appear in the channel, otherwise it violates the Supreme God's decree."
"Fine." Shawn also knew that so many Main Gods and Lords had not acted, which must have a reason, so he immediately transmitted to Dan Ningdon, "Dan Ningdon, that crystal—find a way to get it."
Upon receiving the message, Dan Ningdon naturally rushed forward at once, but Kelei Menting's speed was greater, and he also wielded a mass of light threads that instantly appeared around Dan Ningdon;
"Ha ha, in speed you still can't beat me," Kelei Menting roared with laughter, but not far away Ao De Biao immediately transmitted to his subordinates, "Everyone, soul attack Kelei Menting."
The Underworld army reacted swiftly; thousands of soul attacks instantly shot toward Kelei Menting. Seeing so many soul attacks, Kelei Menting had to retreat a step, and the crystal ahead was about to be seized by Ao De Biao.
Nevertheless, Kelei Menting quickly pursued, and Dan Ningdon did the same, swinging a war blade straight at Kelei Menting, but Kelei Menting paid it no mind, pressing the attack forward toward the crystal, while Ao De Biao was even closer;
"Bad, if he gets it and puts it into the spatial ring, the game ends," Kelei Menting calculated the distance in his mind, immediately swung a slash, and a spatial rift, moving even faster, instantly enveloped the crystal ahead, pulling it back into the spatial turbulence, where it vanished from the channel.
"I can't get it, and you shouldn't either; let the Main Gods fight for it," Kelei Menting actually guessed this might be the Supreme God's relic,
As a Great Perfection, his information network was still very keen; although he had never seen the Supreme God's mirror, only the Supreme God's relic could be valuable enough to make the Main Gods temporarily abandon the planar war to contest this crystal.
Tens of thousands of li away:
"The Yoyuan Crystal has entered the spatial turbulence," without any hesitation, all the Lords immediately tore the space and stepped out,
Other main god groups followed in succession;
However, after they entered, their divine awareness scattered, and they did not locate the Yoyuan Crystal right away.
"Everyone, search quickly; the Yoyuan Crystal should be nearby. After a while it will be hard to find," the Light Lord immediately transmitted to all Main Gods.
Within the spatial turbulence, chaotic energy swirled; anything without a soul aura mixed in can be easily lost;
This is why many Main God forms cannot be found; when a Main God dies, it is usually at the hands of another Main God, but if the battle is too fierce, the Main God form can be easily lost.
Many Main Gods immediately began searching earnestly around; if they found something they could not use, they would give it to a Lord—that's also courtesy.
The Water Lord Yi Nas also moved around the planar battlefield; being so close to the Supreme God's relic, he naturally did not want to give up;
"Four Sacred Beasts?" Yi Nas saw the four ahead and his temper flared, but now was not the time to waste on them; the Four Sacred Beasts also saw the Water Lord, and neither side did much else.
Suddenly, within their divine awareness, a familiar energy ripple appeared.
"Yoyuan Crystal?" Water Lord Yi Nas felt the energy ripple near him, his divine awareness locked onto the location, spotted the drifting crystal, his figure flashed, and he rushed forward.
"Yi Nas, those who see it share in it," Azure Dragon Main God Lei Ding suddenly said.
Yi Nas snorted coldly, "Just the few of you? Can you keep up in speed?"
"Begin," Azure Dragon Main God said, seeing Yi Nas about to seize the Yoyuan Crystal, and immediately addressed the other three.
Suddenly, the Four Sacred Beast Main Gods each transformed into colossal beasts thousands of kilometers tall; the Four Sacred Beasts roared, and an invisible force gathered them together—Azure Dragon above, White Tiger below, Vermilion Bird left, Black Tortoise right.
A strange light radiated around the Four Sacred Beasts, and the whole space seemed frozen; "Boom~" countless spatial turbulences halted instantly, and Main Gods tens of thousands of li away also felt the invisible binding force nearby.
The Destruction Lord also halted, watching the Four Sacred Beasts' ultimate move, his thoughts unknown; the other Lords also naturally realized the Four Sacred Beasts' target was Yi Nas, and beside Yi Nas floated a crystal exuding Destruction Rule attributes.
However, despite the close distance, Yi Nas seemed unable to move another half step, and the crystal was likewise fixed in mid‑air, as was the adjacent spatial turbulence.
Yi Nas's face turned ashen; a teal Main God power churned on his surface as he struggled with the surrounding binding force, yet remained helpless—only his limbs could twitch slightly, his body could not move at all.
From the direction of the Four Sacred Beasts, four differently colored energies converged on their bodies, finally entering the Azure Dragon, where a soul attack shot out like thunder, striking the time‑space‑locked Yi Nas.
Although Yi Nas could not evade, he still unleashed his strongest soul attack; several soul attacks slammed into the Four Sacred Beasts' combined innate divine skill, but were instantly annihilated, and ultimately the combined innate divine skill pierced Yi Nas's body.
Inside Yi Nas, the combined innate divine skill surged like a battering ram, rushing into his soul's depths, piercing his protection and soul‑defense main artifact; "Boom~" Yi Nas's soul was as if struck by a massive hammer.
Externally, Yi Nas's complexion and aura plummeted to a very low level; the surrounding time‑space remained locked, but there was no other danger.
After a while, the spatial binding force gradually dissipated; Yi Nas immediately retrieved the Yoyuan Crystal and swiftly retreated.
"It actually blocked it," the Death Lord murmured.
The Life Lord beside him laughed, "The Four Sacred Beasts' soul attack is unstopable for ordinary Lords, but Yi Nas cultivates the water path; his body is also a divine beast, and he has a Main God avatar, adding a layer of willpower, allowing a tenuous block, though his soul is surely wounded."
"Indeed, if it weren't for the Underworld's Heart, I wouldn't have expected this move from the Four Sacred Beasts..." the Death Lord sighed.
She is a super divine beast, but her soul‑defense augmentation still cannot surpass the Great Perfection's.
The Life Lord added, "It's a pity such a powerful soul attack, if paired with a Lord‑level material attack, would be perfect."
The Death Lord laughed, "Isn't that exactly what the Four Sacred Beasts have always wanted to do?"
The Four Sacred Beasts' innate divine skill is extremely strong; if this move fails to kill the enemy, they have no other tactic, but if they have a Lord‑level expert on their side—even an ordinary Lord—combined, the Four Great Rule Lords would become absolutely invincible.
Even the Four Great Rule Lords know their purpose and thus strive to thwart their success; no one wants another Lord added to the Four Sacred Beasts' lineage.
Fate Lord Ao Fu chuckled, "The Four Sacred Beasts' innate divine skill is truly terrifying."
Destruction Lord said calmly, "Ao Fu, you possess a supreme soul‑defense artifact; their soul attack, however strong, is useless against you."
Ao Fu shook his head, "I'm not talking about the soul attack, but the spatial binding force; even a lower‑rank Main God can wield such power—impressive."
Several other Lords remained silent; the Four Sacred Beasts' ultimate move, whether soul attack or binding force, was too terrifying;
If the four of them were mid‑rank Main Gods, even the Rule Lords would have to be extremely cautious,
"Damn, he actually blocked it," White Tiger Main God said angrily, "Then let's get closer and use the innate divine skill again, kill him."
Azure Dragon Main God shook his head, "No, the remaining use is our life‑saving talisman; once we expend it, how can we defend against other Lords?"
Moreover, Yi Nas has already placed the Yoyuan Crystal into the spatial ring; his Life Lord avatar remains on the material plane, so even if we kill his Water Lord avatar, we can't obtain it."
Having said that, he glanced at the several Rule Lords; their inaction was likely for this reason.
At that moment, Ao Fu flew over, laughing, "Alright, everyone, the contest for the Supreme God's relic is over; Yi Nas succeeded, the other Main Gods cannot obtain it, so stand down."
The other Lords who arrived also took no action, as it was meaningless; even the strongest Four Great Rule Lords were not prepared to use force, because it was futile;
Moreover, this is only one of the relics; even if obtained by force, the mission is far from complete, and among the Rule Lords a great war could still break out.
Inas smiled faintly and said, "Since Lord Ao Fu said so, I'll leave first; I won't take part in the plane war any longer."
After speaking, his figure flashed and he returned straight to the plane battlefield;
"Go back," Ao Fu said, and after that all Lord Gods returned to the plane battlefield, while the Water Sovereign had long ago returned to the Water Realm through a spatial portal.
Although he survived the hard resistance against the Four Beast Gods combined with innate divine abilities, his soul was inevitably severely damaged.
The Death Sovereign's divine consciousness swept the plane portal, laughing, "Shawn, not bad; we have the advantage here."
"I'm not interested in the Supreme Deity's relic, so I'll stay here to control the great battle," Shawn said with a smile.
In fact, even if he were interested it would be useless; he is merely an energy duplicate here, and even if his true self were present, he would not partake in such matters before so many Sovereigns.
Ao Fu glanced over and said, "The outcome isn't decided yet; now, let's quickly see the real proof."
Augusta nodded; from the direction of the plane portal, the majority of the twelve‑wing Light Angelic Gods launched a desperate assault, and the Underworld side did the same, with the remaining over one hundred dark twelve‑wing Angelic Gods also charging desperately.
Danningdon and Clemens were still locked in a stalemate, with many soldiers and even commanders falling around them, yet both sides were clearly fighting to the death.
With the cooperation of many fearless Underworld masters, Clemens remained at a disadvantage because he had to guard his own soul, while the Heavenly side had more twelve‑wing Angelic Gods, and together they held no disadvantage at all.
"These angels are such a hassle," Danningdon said, combining a mass of soul attacks; after briefly pushing Clemens back, he surged like lightning into a formation of 216 angels, and his primary divine artifact long sword slashed down at the angels within.
The angelic formation can combine their power; even with Great Perfection, it is hard to gain the upper hand against hundreds of angels in a short time.
However, an accident occurred: the angels, who should have been fearless, could block Danningdon's attack when united, but one angel strangely retreated, causing the entire formation to collapse instantly.
Boom~~ Without the formation, a hundred or two hundred seven‑star demons could not withstand the Great Perfection's primary divine artifact attack. Sizzle~ Wherever the blade's light touched, hundreds of angels were easily cut down.
"What~" The Light Sovereign, tens of thousands of li away, was stunned, as were the other Lord Gods; they had never seen death‑fearful angels.
Shawn's expression softened; he realized that the angel that had just evaded bore the aura of a soul pearl, the very one sacrificed from the Abiya plane.
"Could it be that these angels, affected by the soul pearls, are not absolutely loyal to the Light Sovereign and also fear death?" Shawn speculated, but there was no time to verify, so he transmitted a voice to Danningdon: "Danningdon, attack those angels; they may be problematic, a flaw in the angelic formation."
"Fine." Danningdon didn't ask why, rushed forward, and Clemens hurried to block, but the Underworld side unleashed a horde of reckless seven‑star fiends with a soul attack, forcing him to retreat again.
Facing Danningdon, several angels had no time to think and re‑combined the formation, but where Danningdon's attack reached, another angel urgently dodged for safety, causing the whole formation to collapse, and Danningdon instantly slew hundreds of angels.
The situation between the Underworld and the Heavenly side reversed instantly.
"These are newly formed angels?" the Light Sovereign realized at that moment, but it was already too late; too many angels had already been cut down by Danningdon.
The Dark Sovereign frowned and said, "The angels sacrificed from the Abiya material plane still have this issue."
On the Dark Divine Plane, a few angels also came from the Abiya plane, but it was fine; since Danningdon held the advantage, no problem arose on his side.
"That material plane really is strange," the Destruction Sovereign remarked oddly; he had never seen such a thing.
Life Sovereign Vivia laughed, "It looks like the Underworld will win."
The Death Sovereign smiled, while Shawn continued to control a group of those infused with soul seeds, launching an assault; now at the final moment, no mistake could be tolerated.
Inside the plane portal:
Massive numbers of angels were slain, and the Light Great Perfection kept being repelled, severely damaging the morale of the Heavenly soldiers; the death of many masters also prompted numerous god‑level beings to look for a chance to retreat.
Morale, once lost, means total defeat; the Underworld's morale surged like a rainbow, with many fearless beings, and as one side waned the other waxed, the Underworld army pushed toward the Heavenly camp.
The remaining few hundred angels, unwilling to cooperate, suffered great loss of strength and higher casualties, and ultimately had to retreat.
Boom~
Inside the plane portal, a burst of dazzling colors again; the Underworld won.
Haha, we won~~~
Tens of thousands of li away, at the location of the Lord Gods, the Underworld's line of Lord Gods showed delighted expressions, while the other Lord Gods furrowed their brows; the die was cast, and nothing could be done.
Boom~~~ Between heaven and earth, a wave of death energy gathered, stronger than the Lord Gods' power, and soon formed a black shadow wearing a hat.
"We pay our respects to the Supreme Deity," all Lord Gods and Sovereigns bowed, though the Supreme Deity would not acknowledge them.
The Death Supreme Deity said, "The Underworld has achieved ten consecutive victories in the plane war; the seven Death‑aligned Lord Gods each receive a share of the Willpower Might reward."
Boom~ Several heavenly laws rewarded once again.
