Paragon of Death

144 Chapter 143: Light vs Life

The fierce light shone so brightly that many had to cover their eyes but when the bright glow appeared was far more terrifying than expected. They could feel the divine energy stabbing their skins, even Gin who stood at the top of the Blood mountain frowned. In all the time spent with Cyrus, he had seen the youth fight but he has never seen him push himself this far.

“Is he going to follow through with the plan or is he really confident he can defeat a spirit realm monster like that?” Gin muttered with a frown

Soon the light began to subside and the mighty guardian weapon almost as big as the blood mountain emerged with Cyrus standing at the top with a golden spear in his hand while wearing the divine golden armor.

Life pathway: Divine guardian weapon!

Cyrus’ voice echoed across the skies as a vague image of himself appeared behind him, purely made of his golden divine aura.

“Hmph! Let me show you what power looks like...Light pathway: Supreme deity” An old, hoarse voice echoed as the second bright light faded and what people saw was unexpected.

It was a gigantic figure seated in a cross-legged position with an hourglass by its left filled with golden sand and on its right was a divine scroll used to record the deeds of man. This being had six hands, two held needs and the remaining four were clasped together.

The eyes of the being were closed but slowly it yanked open and its glorious aura exploded turning the clouds golden as it spread far!

Bow!

.....

The Knights of light all fell on their knees praying with great devotion. Even Duke Hail and Kaido of the sun god were slightly stunned by the recent developments. Their eyes widened with shock as they didn’t expect much from this old man but the son of heaven remained calm as if this was expected. By the way, during the warring era, the former Duke Hail, Archmage Kratos, and Pope Light served as his limbs on the battlefield. No one knew them more than he did.

“Hmph! A mere imitation of my abilities... all your powers come from mine, your strength comes from me SHOW YOUR RESPECT TO YOUR GOD!”

Buzzz!

Cyrus’ words shook the hearts of everyone that heard it as a fierce golden glow erupted from the golden guardian weapon, overshadowing that of the old man.

People looked down and noticed the grass below their feet growing, seeds sprouting and flowers blooming. While the Intensity of Pope Light’s aura was clearly noticeable due to the gap in the cultivation realm, the effects of Cyrus’ aura far surpassed their expectations!

“Kill him!” The Son of heaven could feel the shaken hearts of the Knights of light and quickly gave out the order.

He didn’t dare let Cyrus sow a seed of distrust in the hearts of the core force of the holy church.

“YES! YOUR MAJESTY!” A loud voice exploded from the supreme deity as one of the golden bead necklaces in its hand exploded and the six balls were engulfed in holy flames before flying forward

“NOT GOOD ENOUGH!” Cyrus snorted disdainfully as the guardian weapon below him exploded and separated into twelve smaller guardian swords but even then all twelve swords were slightly bigger than the flaming beads!

Go!

Xiu!

Six blades flew towards the orbs, hitting them from strategic positions, deflecting them, meanwhile the remaining six blades raced towards the supreme Deity.

Huff!

As if exhaling, the supreme deity’s eyes shivered, and the second necklace in its hands. exploded with the six orbs racing toward the six blades!

“Return!” Cyrus’ eyes narrowed as the twelve blades vanished.

Returning to his hands, the golden sword took the form of a mighty golden spear!

Guardian weapon pathway: Spear of damnation!

“A spear?” the supreme deity was shaken by this. He never expected to see the sudden change and what shocked him the most was that he had fought at least two life guardian spirit hosts. He had seen the divine sword but never the divine spear!

“It’s called the guardian weapon pathway for a reason! My brother lacked the resolve to kill you. But me, I will take your life, old man!” Cyrus said with immense hatred in his eyes.

Cyrus held on to his spear with cold eyes while the vague golden aura which had his form gripped the divine spear tightly

Revolving Heaven!

Xiu!

Cyrus let go of the spear in his hands and it began spinning violently like a drill. The massive divine spear began spinning as well as it shot forward with Cyrus, shooting towards the supreme deity! As he moved he accumulated more power and the intensity of his advance improved threefold even before he had reached his target!

Supreme deity pathway: Twelve light wall formation!

The twelve orbs shuddered as they both moved ahead of the supreme deity in a circular form, creating a golden sphere around the supreme being!

Boom!

The spear struck the golden sphere and the world trembled upon collision! Their eyes widened in shock as visible cracks began spreading across the golden sphere while Cyrus kept pushing forward, creating fierce ripples that made everyone’s clothes flutter fiercely.

........

“This....” Kaido and Duke Hail were stunned.

They expected Damon to be the biggest issue amongst the trio but right now, Cyrus and Gin have proven to be more capable than everyone else.

“Naive little kids...” the voice of the son of heaven echoed, drawing the attention of everyone.

“During the warring era, we only fought against the hosts of life and death. It took the joint forces of the five great kingdoms to battle them and funny enough, they were only at the champion realm while we were already spirit realm experts. Yet none of us could face them alone” The son of heaven said with a bitter smile.

Buzzz!

The entire battlefield turned silent as everyone shot each other a questioning glance. Wondering if they heard right or if this was just some sort of joke.

“Funny enough, they were fighting each other while battling us back then. I have a feeling if the two joined forces we would have been wiped out” the Elven queen suddenly spoke with a low soft chuckle but her words struck fear in the hearts of everyone that heard it.

Not only were they in the champion realm but they were fighting each other while defending against the forces of the world. If these words came from the mouths of just anyone, no one would have believed it!

They finally realized why the world was just too terrified of these people, they are just too strong!

“We only managed to win because of the four ancient dragon ancestors of the lizardman race... their sacrifice weakened the two but it also weakened the lizardmen. That was why a certain race decided to take advantage of this and wiped out the lizardmen tribe, chasing them out of the continent!” The Son of heaven’s eyes turned cold as he gazed at the army in the far distance.

Farther than the Elven race.

The orcs!

His cold gaze was on a mighty green being, who wore a dragon scaled armor, with long all back braided hair, long enough to reach his waist. His blood-red eyes shifted to the Son of heaven and after a second he looked away without giving a response.

With just this, the battlefield turned silent and the tension increased, but even then the son of heaven did not back off.

“I’m sure you are well aware of the condition of the dwarves. Back then the human race was weak, but not I am proud to say no kingdom can handle us alone... If the orcs dare try to repeat the events of four centuries ago and turn on the dwarves, I will be the one you will have to answer to!” The son of heaven said with an insane amount of hatred and disdain in his tone. No one would have expected that the son of heaven who has always been silent and indifferent would harbor such great hatred for the orcs.

In response, the orc king once again shot him a casual glance and looked away but this time he spoke.

“You are not my opponent”

Boom!

It was like a bomb was dropped at the center of the human forces and immense killing intent surged from the human forces, directed at the orcs!

These people could allow themselves to be insulted and looked down upon but never would they let anyone insult the son of heaven! This man represented the strength and might of the human race. If someone looked down on him, wouldn’t it mean they were looking down on the entire human race?

“Enough!” The son of heaven quickly called his army to order.

As much as he would love to change targets and fight the orcs in a fierce and decisive battle, the real enemy now was the three guardian spirit hosts.

“We will get the chance to put these oversized goblins in their place!” The son of heaven said coldly.
