Chapter 1491 Heroes Rise! A Surge of Sub-Gods 4 (Page 12)
Three chapters in one!
A deadly crisis was brewing; the Shadow Lord had already seen his death star looming before him.
He was so focused!
Speaker Setsuna's appearance was so sudden!
Even other demigods would find it difficult to get so close without the Shadow Lord noticing.
But it just so happens to be Speaker Setsuna!
How could it be Speaker Setsuna?!
The Shadow Lord couldn't understand why the ruler of an eternal civilization from a distant galaxy deep within the realm of existence would appear on this battlefield and launch a deadly attack against him as an ally of the Radiant Civilization!
Yes, even without any evidence, the Shadow Lord still confirmed the relationship between them!
But that's not the point!
Without time to think, Lord Shadow Hunter immediately tried to cancel his current posture so that his core could start flowing again.
The moment the Speaker locked onto Him, He felt a dull ache in His core.
But it was all too late!
boom!
Seizing the opportunity, the Goddess of the Sun blocked the attack from Venerable Wind Howl, while simultaneously unleashing a stellar photon strike on the Shadow Hunter, momentarily interrupting His act of dispelling His form!
It was in that instant that Speaker Setsuna's attack landed squarely on Lord Shadow Hunter.
Click!
The barely perceptible cracking sound at the conceptual level became the most piercing yet most beautiful sound in the chaotic starry sky.
In an instant, the Speaker's weapon, which resembled a short spear, not only pierced through the Shadow Lord's body but also "just right" struck His core.
In an instant, the power of the Shadow Lord began to run rampant. His body successfully shed its current form, but it could no longer return to its previous shape.
Countless shadow-like black substances surged and began to detach from the Shadow Lord's body amidst their contradictory entanglements and tearing.
This makes His body look like some indescribable existence from some ancient era, giving one a sense of shattering one's worldview just by looking at it.
"what!!!"
Only then did the Shadow Lord's scream, powerful enough to shatter a planet, rang out.
His once vibrant demigod aura plummeted, and the massive loss of dark matter made him look like a balloon with a puncture.
As an assassin-type demigod, Speaker Setsuna fled the moment she succeeded in her attack, giving Lord Shadow Hunter no chance to retaliate.
At the same time, as an ally of the Shadow Hunter, Venerable Wind Howl casually struck the starry sky where Speaker Instantane had just fled.
Unfortunately, it was a pity.
The howling wind that tore everything apart only ripped apart the energy of that starry sky, and along with it, crushed a planet that was affected into dust.
"This is incredibly arrogant! You dare to be distracted while fighting this goddess? This really infuriates me!"
Seeing that Venerable Wind Howl was distracted by other matters, Goddess of the Sun felt that she had been underestimated, and instantly changed her defensive stance to a fierce attack targeting only Venerable Wind Howl.
The violent power of the stars exploded in the starry sky, turning the entire cosmos into a devastating sea of fire.
These special flames, condensed from the power of stars, were freely shaped in the hands of the Goddess of the Sun, and all were transformed into attacks against Venerable Wind Howl.
The entire starry sky was dyed golden red!
Faced with the blazing sun goddess's outburst, Venerable Wind Howl dared not spare any energy to pay attention to Lord Shadow Hunter.
They were already weaker than the Goddess of the Sun, and even in a two-on-one situation, they couldn't defeat her.
Seeing that he could no longer rely on Lord Shadow Hunter, Venerable Wind Howl immediately had the idea of retreating.
……
"Something's not right. Why is Speaker Setsuna here? This is definitely a conspiracy against me!"
"Shadow Hunter is already overwhelmed with its own problems, and I alone can't suppress that crazy woman."
"Moreover, He has an ally spying on me in the shadows, who knows when He might strike me like He did with Shadow Hunter."
"Failed..."
We have to find a way to retreat.
"As long as I am safe, even if the entire Wind Howl civilization suffers great losses, there is still a chance to rise again!"
Under the relentless onslaught of the Goddess of the Sun, the Wind Howler, under immense pressure, began frantically searching for a way out.
As for the Shadow Hunter, who is now an unfathomable ally, Venerable Wind Howl could only hope that the other party would have good fortune.
Despite his burly appearance, Venerable Wind Howl is actually a cunning and treacherous person, and he is absolutely capable of leaving his allies to die.
In a battle between extraordinary beings, especially a clash between beings at the demigod level, if one side changes its mindset, the other side will immediately sense the anomaly.
"Oh~ Trying to slink away again? Every time you fight this goddess, why do you always end up like a stray dog?"
"You got away the last few times, but this time I will absolutely not let you escape from the palm of this goddess!"
The beautiful face of the Goddess of the Sun, compared to Sha Yi's appearance, now exudes a strange sense of terror and majesty.
Clang! ! !
The Blazing Sun Sword, a treasure of the Radiant Civilization, appeared in the hands of the Goddess of the Sun via a spatial teleportation device.
As a vast amount of power was poured in, the surface of the Blazing Sun Divine Sword, which was originally only five meters long, was quickly covered by a layer of stellar divine power that had materialized.
From a distance, it creates a very impactful scene.
The Goddess of the Sun remained at a height of nine meters, but in her hand she held a golden-red energy giant sword that was hundreds of millions of kilometers long.
"Die, you goddess!!!"
As the Goddess of the Sun swung her sword, the golden-red energy sword slashed towards Venerable Wind Howl in a fan-shaped trajectory.
The speed at the fan-shaped end of the giant sword was already approaching the speed of light.
Oh, I forgot to mention!
After being redesigned by Yang Xue, the normal speed limit in the Super God Universe is only the speed of light.
Apart from the great gods, even demigods cannot exceed this limit when moving normally, and demigods cannot even reach the speed of light in most cases, and can only cross this limit through other means.
For example: time acceleration, spatial teleportation, or moving within one's own domain in the form of concepts...
Therefore, in order to deal with this situation, the powerful beings in the [Super God Universe] all possess at least one means that allows them to exceed the speed of light during movement or combat.
Although the tip of the Blazing Sun Divine Sword was close to the speed of light, it was impossible for it to hit Venerable Wind Howl at such a speed.
Therefore, the Goddess of the Sun used another method to make the Sun Divine Sword break through the upper limit of the speed of light.
The movement of the Blazing Sun Divine Sword did not follow a pure straight line, but rather proceeded along a pattern that could not be observed by conventional means of perception.
That is the spatial network of the chaotic starry sky.
Therefore, the divine sword, which originally only traveled at near the speed of light and would have taken a long time to arrive, was already in front of Venerable Wind Howl in an instant.
Sensing the power contained in this sword strike, Venerable Wind Howl's expression turned quite grim.
"That damn crazy woman!"
Despite his cursing, the attack was already upon him, and Venerable Wind Howl could only muster his own power to fight back.
Its body, which looked even thinner than that of an ordinary Wind Howler, unleashed a violence that distorted the surrounding starry sky.
The claws on its five hooked toes were several times longer, leaving clear marks on the starry sky as it slid.
As a beast-like civilization, the Wind Howlers' greatest strength lies in their own bodies; their claws are their weapons, so they don't need to forge any other weapons.
As the spatial rift lengthened, Venerable Wind Howl's claws swung to meet the golden-red energy giant sword.
The size difference between the two is so stark, it's like an ant trying to shake a giant tree.
While size can be considered a reference point in battles between extraordinary beings, it is not absolute.
when! ! !
In the face of this earth-shattering collision, terrifying power began to tremble the conceptual lines in the starry sky, bursting forth with powerful explosions that could be heard by those with keen senses.
Apart from gold-red and dark cyan, there were no other colors in this starry sky, and all matter had been completely destroyed in the previous battle.
……
"This is so ridiculous!"
Seeing that Venerable Wind Howl had blocked her attack, the Goddess of the Fiery Sun revealed an excited smile on her face.
The next moment, His body appeared before Venerable Wind Howl along the spatial veins.
Under extreme compression, the golden-red energy sword, stretching for hundreds of millions of kilometers, formed a layer of highly unstable, explosive sword energy on the surface of the Blazing Sun Divine Sword.
The goddess of the blazing sun stretches out her body like a powerful bow drawn to its fullest extent, and paired with the armor that accentuates her figure, she gives people a contradictory feeling of wildness and beauty intertwined.
In an instant, the powerful bow snapped back!
The Blazing Sun Divine Sword struck Wind Howl Venerable's arm, which he hadn't managed to retract in time, with a speed that nearly tore through the fabric of space.
This time, Venerable Wind Howl's proud physique failed to stop the attack. The scales on his arm were torn apart by the longsword almost instantly. The exploding sword energy destroyed the flesh on his arm and almost broke the hardest bones in his body.
It wasn't that the Blazing Sun Divine Sword couldn't do it; it was just that Venerable Wind Howl narrowly withdrew his arm at the last moment, thus avoiding the crisis of having his arm severed.
But this sword strike was just the beginning.
Next, the Goddess of the Sun transformed into the Sun Sword God, who was most skilled in close combat, and launched an extremely fierce close battle against Venerable Wind Howl.
Combining violence and skill, the Goddess of the Sun can always unleash a devastating power that would make even the Venerable Wind Howl retreat in the most elegant posture.
Venerable Wind Howler was no pushover either.
While dodging the attacks, the extended claws on the ten hooked toes were also trying to tear apart the body of the Goddess of the Sun, ripping off her flesh and even her essential concept.
Thus, within a mere hundred billion kilometers, the two sides engaged in a battle that, while seemingly unglamorous, was in fact far more thrilling.
There are no scenes that cover the starry sky or annihilate stars.
There was no explosive energy aftershock.
However, this battle made Speaker Setsuna, who was attempting a second assassination attempt, reluctant to interrupt.
"Now this is what a life-or-death battle should be like!"
"With that little girl's abilities, there's no need for me to do anything unnecessary."
"I'll just keep an eye on this guy and see how long he can hold out. If he really can't take it anymore, I won't mind giving him a quick death."
The guy that Speaker Setsuna was referring to was none other than the Shadow Lord, whose core had been pierced by His attack, causing his power to go berserk and making it impossible for him to maintain his own form.
Not only was he unable to maintain his form, but the wound suffered by the Shadow Lord was absolutely fatal.
It was only the nature and power of a demigod, and the influence of his will on reality, that allowed him to struggle in his death throes under these circumstances.
If they're lucky, they might actually be able to escape death, but the price would be a long, miserable existence for the rest of their lives.
If you're unlucky...
Clearly, the Shadow Lord was not one of those lucky ones at this moment; the culprit who delivered the fatal blow was still watching him closely.
But He had no choice.
Unable to even maintain its form, it couldn't escape even if it wanted to, and could only struggle in place, praying for an almost impossible miracle to happen.
