Chapter 432
Chapter 432
After being corroded by the Outer God, Black Abyss Deep Sea, the Steel Throne became even stronger, but it faced the rejection of the laws of World and could not easily descend.
Ordinary deities, if they could tolerate a loss of power, could forcefully descend into the mortal world, but the current Steel Throne is unable to achieve even this much.
Almost all the wills of World automatically considered the "Outer God" as the highest level of threat and defended against it.
And so, the Steel Throne tried a different approach to intervene with Noah. It attempted to empower the Blank Fire that had separated from its own power, using it as a vessel for its own will.
In a shell, it descended.
But the plan of the Blank Fire was also thwarted by the Babel Tower and the Imperial Guards, leaving very little of the Blank Fire that had been collected after much time and effort.
Nowadays, the Steel Throne can only resort to the last method if it wishes to intervene in Noah's world.
He forcefully tore apart a part of himself.
This part of himself gave birth to a brand new "deity," and the Steel Throne then directly placed him into the mortal world.
For the Steel Throne, such a action caused considerable harm, and there remained a significant difference between the arrival of the "incarnation" and the arrival of the main entity.Firstly, the power of the "incarnation" was far less mighty than the original form, but the advantage was that, according to the judgments of World's laws, this was a completely new and different being.
Without the label of an Outer God, He could easily bypass the "firewall."
In fact, it was the same. This incarnation had ceased to be the original Steel Throne and had become a newborn being with its own independent soul.
Although this separate soul had been torn off from the Steel Throne itself, it still remained an independent entity.
The Steel Throne had made a binding contract from the moment of its birth. The incarnation must liberate the mighty Black Abyss Deep Sea on its behalf to attain freedom.
A white figure stood tall in the sky, looking down upon the earth.
A calm male voice resonated deep within the souls of everyone.
[I am the Steel Throne.]
[I am not the Steel Throne either.]
[Today is the day of my birth, and it is also the day of your demise.]
[Bring forth your destructive wrath, restless and angry spirits, for I shall grant you rest here.]
Everyone in Tatsumi City.
Every person in the Air Alliance.
They all heard it.
At this moment, in Tatsumi City, Bai Yan took a deep breath. Right now, he could fully feel the pressure of facing a god.
"God..."
It, or rather, He, was just a small fragment that emerged independently from the soul of the Steel Throne, yet He remained a deity.
But even as a god, He should be the most powerless deity in World.
However, Bai Yan still felt a deep sense of pressure.
"This is for being against God."
Once, even if Bai Yan had seen God before, he had never directly opposed the deity. But now, he was directly experiencing the oppressive feeling from God, making him feel as if there were thorns on his back.
Each finger trembled delicately, a natural instinct of the body.
And the others naturally suffered even more. All the supernaturals below Apocalypse in Tatsumi City, including Mu Ling, were no exception. They all knelt down on the ground under the pressure of God.
The crowd lowered their heads, but Mu Ling, with great effort, managed to lift her head, refusing to fully prostrate herself.
Her eyes widened in disbelief, nearly biting her own tongue in the process.
Curse it!
I couldn't even manage to stand up... What right do I have to become that person's sharp blade?
Even if Scarlet Moon, Maryse, and the others could still stand here, they all felt an incredibly heavy pressure. Any action they wanted to take seemed exceptionally difficult.
"Is this what a god looks like?" Scarlet Moon grew even angrier, raising her head high and glaring at the divine figure in the sky.
Before the battle had even begun, they were already unable to take a single step.
For mortals, the extraordinary, and the gods, any transformation between these three is incredibly dramatic. Every significant change creates a world of difference.
The difference between an Apocalyptic extraordinary being and an ordinary divine being is even greater than the difference between a divine being and an Outer God.
Inside the White Tower, Mr. Xia remained calm:
"This power is indeed so strong that it goes beyond imagination. The impact I feel in my heart is just like the first time I learned about the existence of extraordinary powers."
Unable to match/compete with.
In an instant, Bai Yan made a decision and all the tactics he had prepared beforehand now seemed somewhat powerless.
Wow, the god was truly mighty.
When facing the god, the extraordinary individual felt overwhelmingly powerless.
Perhaps, at this very moment in Tatsumi City, only Mr. Xia and I could keep on fighting, while all the powerful individuals in the arena might have felt helpless. But how could the two of us possibly overcome a true deity?
"Let me give it a try, said the god with confidence."
Mr. Xia suddenly found himself surrounded by glowing red pupils, resembling miniature suns with vibrant colors. They emitted a scorching heat that made it impossible for anyone to get near.
This was the most powerful destructive ability he had ever known!
"The Cataclysm"
Colorful suns shot towards the figure in the clouds, radiating tremendous energy. If they were to land on the ground, they could instantly evaporate the entire Tatsumi City.
With just one strike, Mr. Xia had already lost most of his vitality, instantly turning him incredibly old with gray hair.
The power just now was extremely strong, but the cost was also tremendous.
He had exerted all his strength.
Naturally, the reason was...
Challenge the gods!
"Oh, mighty ones of the mortal realm."
The voice of the white figure reached deep into the hearts of each person.
Mr. Xia had a troubling feeling.
People witnessed an incredible scene as those terrifying suns of unusual colors, like nuclear bombs, floated in the sky like bubbles, one after another vanishing into thin air, leaving no trace behind.
The white figure was completely unharmed.
Was it really impossible?
Mr. Xia furrowed his brow, unable to comprehend why the attack had failed.
Just as mortals cannot comprehend how extraordinary individuals harness extraordinary powers.
And for the extraordinary individuals, harnessing extraordinary powers was completely natural, like an instinct.
Even if a mortal wielded a firearm and had a significant chance of slaying the weakest extraordinary individual, the fundamental difference between the two was still too vast.
Bai Yan gazed at the divine figures in the sky, realizing deeply that they were the adversaries they couldn't currently confront.
But sooner or later, one day would come.
Although it wasn't happening at the moment, eventually someone would become a god within the Babel Tower.
At that time, whether it be the Steel Throne or the Rainbow, they would no longer be unattainable and magnificent beings.
Bai Yan felt a strong intuition deep inside his heart. He had a strong feeling that the Rainbow would intervene, so he didn't lose hope.
[Let it be over.]
The silhouette man spoke again in the hearts of the crowd.
Afterwards, a unique ripple emanated from Him, and peculiar changes started to occur within Tatsumi City.
Ordinary bowls and chopsticks turned into electronic gadgets, old and worn-out furniture gained magical powers, and some plants grew mouths and started speaking...
World instantly became absurd!
And after "progress," those things would become usable for him.
The Steel Throne is a mythical god that symbolizes divinity.
"Progress" is the concept that He represents.
Even the Flame of Light in Mu Ling's hand has further "progressed," gaining its own intelligence.
But soon after, it betrayed Mu Ling.
It pierced directly into her abdomen, and blood gushed out.
"Progress" and "righteousness" were never the same concept. These things that had "progressed" started becoming restless and attacked numerous extraordinary individuals in Tatsumi City.
This was actually not an attack from the Shadowman, but merely a phenomenon triggered by its own "attributes" before launching the attack.
Finally, the attack of the Shadowman arrived!
God's attack!
Everyone saw it, white flames appeared in their souls, burning incessantly, growing stronger and threatening to consume them!
(Translated by Gravity Tales 😝)
And people were utterly helpless in the face of this attack.
[Become the necessary fuel for progress.]
Bai Yan discovered that he was not affected, but almost everyone else was... Could it be an attack targeted at the soul's essence, effective against non-divine beings, with higher ranked beings automatically immune?
No!
Mr. Xia was also unaffected. Bai Yan, astonished, noticed a wicked black aura emerging within the man's body.
That black aura repelled the attack.
Bai Yan, once again, encountered that black aura. It had also appeared during the Blank Fire incident.
Suddenly, everything froze in place.
Deep Blue World!
Mu Ling, with all her might, finally recovered her will to fight as she forcibly triggered time stagnation.
However, in the Deep Blue World, she still felt the pressure, unable to move.
"Drat!"
The difference between Crown level extraordinaries and gods was still too obvious. Mu Ling, despite her efforts, couldn't muster effective attacks.
She even realized deep down that even if she were to swing her weapon and strike, it would be impossible to penetrate the defenses of the divine.
However, she still didn't want to give up just like that.
She didn't want to simply acknowledge her own weakness like this.
Then, something happened that shocked Mu Ling.
Only four seconds passed, and miraculously, time resumed its normal flow!
The once foolproof time freeze, which always worked in the past, has now made a mistake... It missed a second.
[Is it a part of the King of Deep Blue's power... Did you freeze time?]
Although separated by thousands of miles, Mu Ling could vividly sense the other person's gaze fixed upon her soul!
[If the true King of Deep Blue were here, they could probably freeze me for a thousand, even ten thousand years, but you are still far from being enough...]
Just when everyone in Tatsumi City was feeling hopeless, Bai Yan suddenly heard the voice of an elderly and wise being resonating from deep within his soul.
[I am the enchantment,]
[He had already prepared a seal beforehand, at this moment, I could not personally appear.]
[The mysterious presence of the Babel Tower...]
[Your soul is very unique, capable of containing it...]
[Harness the power bestowed upon me.]
["Defeat the gods!"]
Just at the moment he heard that voice, Bai Yan understood the identity of the other person.
The person speaking was one of the "Rainbows."
Anomalous Star.
Harnessing His power?
Bai Yan, feeling a little confused at this moment, soon encountered a sudden change.
Suddenly, an endless surge of power flowed into his soul. Vast wisdom, like an endless sea, instantly broadened Bai Yan's vision, allowing him to perceive countless worldly matters.
World seemed to have changed.
No, it was "me" at this moment that became different from others!
