Divine Emperor of Death

Erin Goldsun slammed his own forehead, face-palming as he sighed lightly. He felt that his little sister wouldn't get married in this lifetime. After all, in his mind, that was the perfect time to have attacked him with her charm, but she ran away instead.

"I'm sorry, brother Mo Tian. My little sister is too shy. I'm sorry again if she has offended you in any way after leaving like that."

A soul transmission fell on Davis's head, leaving him speechless. He wasn't offended at all but instead found Shea Goldsun too cute for a woman who bore golden crow flames in her body, which should, in all honesty, make her aggressive.

Nonetheless, he couldn't help but turn to look at the battle stage at this moment as he sensed something dreadful, his eyes widening.

"I never expected an immortal inheritor to behave so rudely, but I guess that's how some people truly are in nature."

Dark crimson flames and black lightning were drawn in arcs as the Blazing Thunderlight Sect Founder's hands gracefully danced. Her fingers skillfully drew the manifestation of a kirin in front of her, one that radiated a terrifying dread that chilled the hearts of people as the chaotic hall abruptly became silent.

Gawain's eyes also flickered as he stopped chasing her and suddenly stood still, appearing to fortify his defenses as spatial energy began to envelop him in copious amounts, something he didn't even bother to use when in battle with Youil, the Cyan Soul Rat Clan's Immortal Inheritor.

The weather above the palace changed at this moment, becoming cloudy and dark as though a heavenly tribulation was descending, causing the ignorant to panic, but the eyes of the elders were stiff with attention, their gaze concentrated on her movements as they knew the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder was going to use a Divine Technique!

*Rumble!~*

Thunder rumbled in the skies, and an ominous howl echoed across the Grand Zyrus Family as the winds picked up as though a storm was brewing. The change was so quick that it made the people outside feel as though they were strung toward a natural disaster, causing utter chaos to ensue.

But despite that, the elders of the Zyrus Family only fortified the city's defenses and didn't stop the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder from using a Divine Technique.

"Thunderous Inferno Tempest~"

*Sizzle!~ Crackle!~*

With a low hum, dark crimson flames ignited into a raging inferno, with flames shooting up into the sky. The intensity of the flames increased as the technique appeared to reach its peak, creating a swirling vortex of fire that enveloped the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder.

At the same time, the rumbling sound grew louder and louder as dark lightning swirled around the flames like a tornado, causing the ground to shake and tremble, with rubble and boulder dislodging from the battle stage.

"Swssshh!~"

Abruptly, all that dark crimson flames and black lightning swirled into a vortex as they flew straight towards Gawain, wreaking havoc in its wake that left the battle stage destroyed, all the debris being sent flying through the air.

The sight of it was like a kirin treading through the skies, leaving countless people breathless as it rammed straight into Gawain.

*Boom!!!~*

Gawain stood there like a rocky giant as he took the hit head. The obsidian crystals all over his body shone with spatial energy, blocking the explosion and the attack from nearing him, but the intensity of the Divine Technique's prowess was too high, causing the spatial barrier to crack and envelop Gawain.

"Rargghh!!!"

Just as the technique hit Gawain, he applied the weight of his entire power into his defense, brimming with all three energies. His essence, martial, and soul are combined into one single spatial energy.

*Crack~* *Crack~* *Crack*~

But despite his efforts, one could hear the crystals in his body crack vaguely, but that didn't seem to be enough to break his defense despite the searing heat and the crackling lightning leaving everything utterly destroyed in its wake.

He kept screaming out loud, but it wasn't one of pain but one of pushing back, seemingly holding up against the Thunderous Inferno Tempest, a Divine Technique with his full power!

With the flames and lightning having stayed in one place for too long, the surface below Gawain started melting, causing him to lose his balance.

*Boom!!!~*

The remaining long swirling snake of terrifying lightning and flames converged at Gawain and slammed into him, causing his body to be completely engulfed in a massive explosion that fully covered the battle stage.

*Crack!~* *Crack!~* *Crack!~* *Crack!~* *Crack!~*

Millions of cracks appeared on the battle stage's barrier, causing everyone's scalps to turn numb.

Instantly, the immortal inheritors of the seven powers appeared at the front and raised their hands, forming a barrier that covered their powers, but the others were forced to retreat for their lives, causing extreme chaos within the inner hall.

Within two seconds, the explosion receded without destroying the barrier, leaving behind a ruined battle stage that had remnant dark crimson flames slowly melting the stage and black lightning still crackling in arcs as it moved around like a snake on the surface.

At the center of the stage was a man kneeling on the floor.

His robe seemed to be torn apart in most places, and some areas of his body were painted black as though he was burnt. His lush black hair was nowhere to be seen as he became bald and charred, but despite this horrific scene, he stood up, raising his head as he grinned like a giant devil.

"Just so you know, I didn't use my Divine Technique to defend against your full prowess..."

His grave yet firm voice resounded around the palace, causing countless hearts to churn as they felt him to be a monster.

Even that kind of attack which left all of them heaving for breath under immense pressure, didn't cause him to lose an arm or a leg? Just what kind of monster was he?

And the elders knew exactly that as they deemed the two of their prowess to be seven levels higher, the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder even reaching its very peak, causing them to shudder in incredulity as they couldn't believe how powerful they were as individuals.

Even hundreds of Level Nine Immortal Kings using a Warring Formation was no match for them, making them take a deep breath that made them sober than ever.

Nonetheless, they saw the Blazing Thunderlight Sect Founder's shoulder shake as though she was silently laughing.

"I know, but do you really want to try me at my peak…?"

"Heh, bring-"

*Bang!~*

Gawain had just opened his mouth when his scalp turned numb. The pupils in his eyes just reflected a spark of light before he abruptly found himself hitting the ground with his leg and launching himself to the back, retreating at full speed as he appeared at the edge of the barrier.

"Oh my… you seem to be not an idiot at the very least."

The Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder lazily smiled and put her hands down, causing Gawain to stop using his Divine Technique. His clenched heart felt relief upon seeing her put her hands down, but the prowess he sensed still left him feeling a bit…

'This… this is fear…?'

Looking at his shuddering hands at the corner of his eyes, Gawain turned to look at the crowd for confirmation, wondering if they had seen what he had just seen, and as he expected, he saw their expressions look as though they had seen a ghost, confirming his fears.

'No way…'

Davis's gaze shook, '... she has comprehended Firestorm Laws, the fusion of fire and lightning... and it's intent is at a high level…!'
