"What?""Did that actually happen?"In an instant, the atmosphere was electrified, filled with killing intent.Daisy Green, the master of the world-class powerhouse Wyomming Palace, was currently the only woman in Oasis Vale. She was a peerless beauty, her stunning looks capable of toppling nations, making her the dream goddess of all men.The reason she was here wasn't because Gideon had brought her in. She had followed him herself.She was infatuated with Gideon and had been relentlessly pursuing him. She had followed him to Oasis Vale and settled there.But recently, Daisy was preparing to leave Oasis Vale. After all, Gideon was no longer there, and staying with a group of rough men didn't interest her in the least."Hercule, didn't you promise not to mention this? I even secretly helped you with heavy chores for half a month!" Donald panicked."Hit him!"Everyone swarmed him.It wasn't until Donald passed out that they stopped. Only then did Ian speak up. "I just received
Douglas' face was filled with arrogance.This time, the eight major forces assembled ten thousand masters, along with no fewer than 380 transcendents.With such a lineup to deal with one Dominic, to be honest, he thought it was overkill. It was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."My lord, your call?"The leaders of the eight major forces stood in neat formation behind Douglas. All of them were peak transcendents, providing him with the utmost sense of security.Douglas said, "Call him out!""I've never even seen Dominic before. If we're going to kill him outright, I might as well meet him first, don't you think?" Hector immediately stepped forward. He possessed a unique technique, the Lion's Roar. His voice rolled like thunder as he spoke, creating sound waves that shook the air."Dominic, get out here!"As soon as the words fell, all the men on the coastline shouted in unison, "Get out here!"The intense energy caused waves to surge skyward in the inner sea. Even Beake
Percy could no longer hold on.A mouthful of blood spewed from his mouth. Mixed within the blood were clots. It was pieces of his organs. His organs were starting to rupture.The suppression of three world-class champions was too overwhelming. An ordinary peak transcendent would have exploded into pieces long ago.For Percy, enduring this long was proof of his exceptional status among peak transcendents."Spare… Spare me…"A cold snort echoed.At that moment, Percy's eyes bulged, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets. His mouth gaped wide open, and blood sprayed out in torrents, all filled with clots.With a thud, he collapsed into a pool of blood, lifeless."Weakling." Ajax curled his lip, unimpressed.Hercule picked up Percy's corpse, carried it to the beach, and flung it with all his strength. The body flew over 800 yards, landing on the opposite shore."Impressive!" Ajax couldn't help but give a thumbs-up.This was as expected of Hercule.On the opposite sho
Ruby let out a scream from inside the helicopter.The gathered elites and nobles, who had never witnessed such a heart-stopping scene, also gasped in shock.The giant blade in the sky seemed to slice through the night, leaving a streak across the dark horizon. It surged forward with unstoppable momentum.Douglas' lips curled into a smirk.Anyone who dared oppose the royal family would be annihilated. There was no other outcome.Just then, a dazzling golden light shot up from Beaker Island. The light was brilliant, far more radiant than the giant blade.The world seemed to tremble, and everyone watched as the golden light transformed into an enormous palm spanning over a thousand feet. It was like…The hand of God!The sudden turn of events stunned everyone, including Hector and the other powerful figures of the seven allied forces."What?" The eyes of the leaders widened. In their line of sight, the massive hand reached out, grabbed the massive blade, and held it firmly. The
A soft swish could be heard in the courtyard of the palace as Gideon lounged on a chair, slowly swirling his glass of red wine.With a flick of his finger toward the sky, a burst of energy exploded into the night sky, taking on the form of a large golden character. It read, "Approved!""Thank you, sir!" The champions turned around.Without hesitation, they commanded in unison, "All masters and grandmasters, present yourselves at once!"A loud rumble echoed through the area as the ground shook, and the sky trembled.Masters from all directions emerged, forming an army of 180,000 strong under the champions. It was a sight beyond imagination. They completely surrounded the area.Despite their efforts to contain their energy, their overwhelming presence could not be hidden. The immense force weighed down on the 10,000 powerful warriors from the eight major factions, causing them to tremble with fear and lose control of their mental state."T-This…"Hector and the others stood in sh
At the Cabinet, many Elders sat quietly, not saying a word. They had just gotten the news. The numbers of gathered masters and transcendents hit them like a thunderbolt, leaving them stunned.It was shocking, and they couldn't help but start thinking. Could all of Dasovia even gather that many masters and transcendents? Maybe. If you added up everyone from all the factions, Great Families, and officially trained powerhouses, it might be possible.But the kicker was that Gideon managed to mobilize 180,000 masters and 30,000 transcendents in just one day. That was what really made this situation so unbelievable.Could the Dasovia authorities even unite all the factions and clans in just one day? No way.After a long pause, Mose sighed and said, "Gideon is probably unmatched when it comes to strength. This time, he didn't even pull out all his stops. If he really tried, the numbers would be way more than that!"The Elders started murmuring among themselves.Casse chimed in, "The onl
"Damn it!" James slammed his fist on the table. "These jerks!""Mr. James, has His Grace given any instructions?""His Grace is in Kitherglen visiting the Jaeger royal family. He should have heard about this by now, but we haven't gotten any word yet. We need to handle this before he gets back."James looked dark and furious. He took a deep breath to calm himself and said in a chilly tone, "Sure, 180,000 masters and 30,000 transcendents are formidable, but they're still just humans! "Humans won't stand a chance against our tech weapons! I've decided to use our advanced weapons and send in the royal army to take them out.""And…" James paused for a moment, then added, "Just to be safe, let's reach out to those world-class champions for backup. After all, they owe us a few favors from back when we helped them out. Anyone have any objections?"Everyone exchanged glances, shook their heads, and didn't raise any objections. Even if they had doubts, the current situation left them no
Blood Demons and Thunder Gods were among the top forces in the world-class arena. They were huge and well-known far and wide. Willis and Lyle were also powerful figures who had made a name for themselves globally.When these two factions sent out all their forces, no one could afford to be careless or underestimate them."Those two, Willis and Lyle, do have some skills. Years ago, I tried to seize them and bring them to Oasis Vale, but they managed to slip away and vanish without a trace. I even went to the headquarters of Blood Demons and Thunder Gods but couldn't find them."It'll be perfect if they show up now. We can take them down, capture them, and throw them into Oasis Vale for some toughening up!"The champions' eyes lit up as they heard this. In their minds, they were already silently offering condolences for Willis and Lyle. "These two factions definitely need our attention, but there's no need to stress too much. We can call on our formidable troops if needed. That's i
Gideon made a move as he spoke, and a few energy cannons were shattered.Orabella exclaimed, "You know about energy cannons and even particle cannons? Have you heard of the Spirale Clan?""Who do you think you're looking down on? Why wouldn't I know?""What's your connection to the Spirale Clan?""Oh? Are you that interested? If so, we can stop right here and find a place to talk." Gideon smirked.He had his own plans. Draven didn't know the exact location of the Spirale Clan. He only had a few clues. So, searching blindly in the Asgard Plains would be too difficult.However, The Light Council was different. The most powerful and mysterious force in the world might actually know where the Spirale Clan was.Orabella held a high position in The Light Council, so she might know something.This was crucial for Gideon.Orabella, after a brief moment of thought, stopped in her tracks. There was no escaping. Even if she managed to get away, she would end up in a miserable state.Tha
"Run!" Orabella shouted in alarm.Gideon had vanished, but she didn't believe he had been blown to ashes. He must have escaped.Sure enough, scorching flames burst underground, transforming into two thin chains, shooting toward Orabella and Leomer. They looked small, but the pressure they exuded was immense. Even their armors felt like they were about to melt.These flames were from the Earthcore Flame. It wasn't just any Earthcore Flame. It was the purest essence of fire, its temperature unimaginably terrifying.Without the Solar Titan Physique, there was no way to resist it. Even touching or getting too close would severely wound the body."Attack!" Leomer roared fiercely.Unlike Orabella, he didn't retreat. Instead, he faced the Earthcore Flame head-on. His greatsword slashed out, releasing waves of sword energy. The attacks intertwined, forming a vast web, attempting to shred the Earthcore Flame to nothing.Gideon sneered.Leomer had grossly underestimated the Earthcore Fla
During this time, Umbra was more than capable of seizing the advantage with a fierce counterattack.All things considered, Orabella and Umbra were evenly matched. If they fought, it would be a fifty-fifty struggle."Who exactly are you?" Orabella was furious. She looked disheveled. It was something she had never experienced before. "Are you truly willing to become a mortal enemy of The Light Council? That is not a wise decision."Gideon grinned. "This isn't about me and The Light Council anymore. It's about me and you. I must subdue a genius like you and keep you by my side.""You!" Orabella's face burned with shame and fury.She was a divine maiden, the high and mighty Legion Commander of the Regnandi Legion. In all her years, she had never been subjected to such humiliation and offense. "You will pay for your words and actions!"Gideon laughed. "You still say such naive things at a time like this? How laughable!"The Solar Titan Physique within Gideon erupted, its energy pour
"Is that so? I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully, it won't be as weak and useless as that so-called Decree of Decay!" Gideon remarked.He stood tall within the prison of light, making no moves, simply waiting for the next decree.This was his first clash with a powerhouse from The Light Council. He was eager to see their true abilities.After all, The Light Council was one of the most powerful and mysterious factions in the world. This was exactly the kind of intense battle Gideon craved. Only through such encounters could he push his limits and force himself to grow."You won't be disappointed." Orabella spread her arms wide, chanting once more, as she issued another decree, "Mind Shatter!"In an instant, Gideon's mind reeled as if struck by lightning. A splitting headache tore through his skull. His vision darkened, and his thoughts grew hazy.It didn't stop there."Attack!" The three Cardinals seized the opportunity to launch a relentless, coordinated assault.Gideon snorte
"You have a good physique, but it's still far from enough." Gideon sighed.In an instant, a chill ran down Vicar's spine. The next second, his fist shattered completely.Vicar let out a miserable scream, echoing through the canyon, making everyone's skin crawl.Gideon still hadn't let go.Vicar's expression turned ruthless. He knew if he didn't make a decisive move now, the consequences would be disastrous. He decided to sever his own arm and retreated at full speed."Generalissimo Tancred!" The two dukes rushed forward.At this moment, Vicar scowled. It was not just from the pain but from the overwhelming humiliation. The mighty Vicar had been forced to cut off his own arm, and in front of The Light Council, no less. What a joke!Suddenly, Orabella spoke up, "You're strong."She stepped forward. A faint halo of light surrounded her, making her seem divine and untouchable."But it is unwise to stand against The Light Council.""My apologies, but it was The Light Council who c
Nothing but ants? Vicar and the others froze.They had just been called nothing but ants. It was unbelievable. This was the first time in their lives they had ever heard such an insult. Their fury, especially the Cardinals', erupted like wildfire."How arrogant!""Do you think you're invincible just because you ambushed Leomer?"Gideon had defeated Leomer head-on, yet to them, it was nothing more than a sneak attack.However, Gideon couldn't be bothered to argue. He stepped forward. A divine, overwhelming energy radiated from him, and the surrounding temperature skyrocketed under the sheer heat of his presence."The Light Council? Heh! That's all you amount to. I heard you're backing Tylland, stirring up troubles at Dasovia's borders. You've got some nerve!"At the end of the day, Gideon was still a Dasovian. In foreign lands, protecting his homeland's dignity was not just his duty. It was his responsibility."Who are you?""Gideon Snow."Just two words from him felt thundero
Across The Light Council, aside from the Pope, no one else at his age had mastered the seventh level of the Divine Light Blade. This included the ten Legion Commanders. Even the extraordinarily gifted Orabella hadn't reached this level.Yet, Leomer had succeeded!"The seventh level…" Orabella's gaze flickered as she murmured, "Leomer truly is formidable.""With this skill alone, when Leomer steps down as Legion Commander, he will have a chance to become an Envoy of Light."The Envoy of Light was a special title and position. The Pope personally nominated the candidates, who were then elected through a vote.This role was not bound by The Light Council's regulations. Envoys of Light answered directly to the Pope, who had full authority over them.Though they held no official power within The Light Council, their status was unquestionably high as the Pope's most trusted aides. Some had even gone on to inherit the title of the Pope. Throughout The Light Council's history, many Envoy
The Guardian Legion of The Light Council held immense significance. It was one of the most crucial legions. Its duty was to safeguard The Light Council.However, for Leomer Peele, there was one person he vowed to protect above all else. That person was Orabella.Now that he had her approval, Leomer had no reservations. Gripping his massive sword, he strode onto the battlefield."Divine Light Blade." Leomer's long hair stood on end as his greatsword radiated brilliance.All he did was a simple vertical slash with no elaborate technique. Yet, with this single downward strike, it was as if the world had split apart. A sword energy wave spanning 880 yards materialized out of thin air.In an instant, the combined energy of the champions was severed."Dragon Severance!" Leomer swung his sword again.It was still a simple sword movement, but this time, it was a horizontal slash. The massive energy dragon formed by the champions, already split open, was now completely severed. It collap
At this moment, deep within the Great Rift of Death, in a territory filled with a sinister presence, a group of men and women were trapped. Their bodies bore various degrees of severe injuries."They're attacking again!" Ian gritted his teeth.Seeing another terrifying energy blast descending upon them, the champions once again joined forces to shatter it. However, they were truly reaching their limit.They fled there upon being pursued by Tylland's army and The Light Council's elite forces, only to be found and trapped again.The Light Council had somehow acquired a batch of high-tech weaponry that was capable of firing powerful energy beams, leaving the champions in utter misery.Outside their encampment, a group of figures radiating overwhelming power loomed atop a small hill.There were three Cardinals of The Light Council, two Legion Commanders, Tylland's supreme commander, and two royal dukes of Tylland. It was a total of eight elite powerhouses."The time is about right.
