Paragon of Death

145 Chapter 144: Devour!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Countless shockwaves spread across the sky as Cyrus’ eyes revealed an extremely fierce glow that made everyone cover their eyes!

Shatter!

Boom!

Impossible!

People screamed in disbelief Cyrus shattered the golden sphere, striking at the supreme deity without hesitation!

This!

.....

The supreme deity was stunned by this and quickly tried to retreat but Cyrus have never entertained any thoughts of letting the old man escape.

“DON’T YOU DARE THINK OF RUNNING!” Cyrus growled as he began spinning with the spear in his eyes, creating a massive golden whirlpool surging forward!

“YOU FORCED MY HANDS!” Pope Light bellowed as the supreme deity’s eyes let out a bright flash before grabbing the hourglass by its right and throwing it forwards like a shield!

Boom!

A force explosion erupted as Cyrus effortlessly shattered it but what happened next was something unforeseen!

As the hourglass shattered the golden sound within surged forward like a fierce tide, threatening to swallow Cyrus whole! For the first time since the struggle between the two, Cyrus was overwhelmed!

Blegh!

Cyrus spat out a mouthful of blood as he struggled fiercely with the surging golden sand but he could barely maintain his ground, not talk of resisting the enemy.

“The sands of time will take your time and make it mine... Just like I took that of your brother!” Pope Light’s voice rang in Cyrus’ ears and his eyes chilled!

“Take my time? Hahahaha! I am the incarnate of life itself, I am boundless, I am forever! Does a mere clown dare to entertain the thought of taking my life? I will have you understand what true strength is!” Cyrus growled as the golden spear vanished and the golden sand surged forward like a wave but just before it could reach him a bright gold light shone brightly between him and the attack as a massive golden divine gate with countless divine runes was engraved.

Guardian weapon pathway: Heaven’s gate!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The world seemed to tremble as the golden sand clashed with the divine gate but seemingly couldn’t get through.

Cyrus’ eyes revealed fierce killing intent as his aura exploded violently and the strange runes engraved on the gate glowed brightly.

“Heaven’s gate: Chains of redemption!” Cyrus bellowed as countless golden chains suddenly shot out of the glowing runes.

“It’s over!” Cyrus growled as the golden chains pierced through the golden sand and quickly stabbed into the supreme deity!

Gaaah!

Blood squirted out from the mighty being as its body shivered. Its calm and emotionless eyes were now replaced with fear!

“Accept judgment! Divine flames of purification!” Cyrus cried out as golden flames surged from the heavens gate, channeled through the chains before consuming the golden supreme deity!

Gaaaaaah!

Screams could be heard from within the bright golden flames and everyone stood in silence with shock and fear in their eyes. This was never an outcome that was expected in the battle between the two. Everyone watched in shock as a thin frail figure fell off the skies to the ground, Before rolling down the mountain until he reached the foot of the mountain where the Gyro Kingdom forces waited.

“.....”

“Impossible!”

Everyone watched the frail man on the ground unable to lift a finger. His eyes were wide open but his gaze was unfocused as he gasped for air weakly. Who would have thought the great Pope of the holy church who swaggered across the continent with no one to fear would be defeated by his grandson who was only at the peak of the warrior realm!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Cyrus spat out a mouthful of blood, revealing golden blood. His body shivered as explosions erupted from his body. His eyes revealed immense weakness as the sounds of a turbulent sea could be felt surging within his soul.

“You.... All the time and life force been taken by me for the past four centuries! You dare steal from me? Yoooooou! Cough# cough#” Pope Light tried to speak but he couldn’t.

His eyes were pinned on Cyrus’ figure standing above which looked unstable and about to fall off the skies.

Just like he said, Cyrus had stolen all the life force he had accumulated over the past four centuries with his life magic, such power was too great for his weak body to contain right now! It would be shocking if there was no backlash!

.............

The son of heaven only spared the old Pope a cold glance before turning his gaze back to Cyrus who was staggering above. A fierce killing light exploded from his body as he slowly raised his hand.

“Anyone who brings me the head of the life magic host will become the fourth Duke of the great Gyro Kingdom” The son of heaven said coldly.

Boom!

Those words sank deep into the hearts of everyone present and a flurry of mixed emotions surged through the hearts of the people present but none dared to make a move. Their eyes were filled with greed and fear at the same time as many watched with confusion on what to do.

How could they fight someone who was able to defeat the great Pope Light?

Yes, it was obvious he was nowhere as strong as he used to be but that changed nothing. Even a weak spirit realm expert can easily kill over ten thousand soldiers before their death.

Bang!

Suddenly a figure shot forward, racing towards the weak Cyrus like a bright sun. Seeing this Cyrus’ eyes turned frosty as he raised his hand and clasped his hands in a bid to gather his power but his chaotic mana shook violently, breaking his concentration and preventing him from protecting himself!

Die!

Everyone’s eyes widened as they expected to see the death of the life mage with this attack but the unexpected happened.

“HMPH! HAVE I BECOME SO IRRELEVANT THAT JUST ANYONE CAN MAKE AN ATTEMPT AT MY FRIEND’S LIFE IN MY PRESENCE?” Gin’s disgusted voice boomed as the entire sky was replaced with bright blue light!

Xiu!

Gin appeared in front of Cyrus and simply threw an arm forward without fear!

“I WILL BE TAKING ALL OF IT THIS TIME!” Gin bellowed with wicked lights in his eyes as a terrifying suction force erupted from his hands and the bright scorching aura surging around Kaido’s body started surging towards Cyrus against its master’s will!

Force pathway: Devour!

“Shit! Not this again!” Kaido paled as visible fear appeared in his eyes but with so many eyes looking he didn’t dare retreat!

He would rather die here than let his reputation be destroyed by a mere child!

Why would he run?

Even if what the Son of heaven said in his stories were true, who would dare compare a mere mortal mage to a cosmic spirit host? Even if they can’t compare to the Guardian spirit hosts they shouldn’t be so inferior that a warrior realm guardian spirit host can beat a spirit realm cosmic spirit host!

“YOU DARE!!!” Kaido flew into rage as his aura exploded fiercely like a bright sun surging with endless energy!

“Hmph! Not knowing one’s strength!” Gin snorted disdainfully as he placed his hand behind him and the suction force erupted but this time it came from his entire being, surging dangerously strong!

“EVEN IF THERE WERE TEN OF YOU HERE, YOU WOULDN’T POSE A THREAT!” Gin stood above while gazing down at Kaido like a god gazing down at a mortal. His eyes revealed his disdain and contempt infuriating Kaido even more.

“GIN STONEHAMMER!” Kaido growled like an injured beast as his body reached Him and he quickly swung his blade, hoping to decapitate Gin in one go!

Peng!

The world was left dumbfounded as they watched in disbelief when Gin actually opened his hand and caught the blade effortlessly!

Even the son of heaven let his jaw drop due to shock.

Cyrus had stunned everyone including him by defeating an old monster like the pope of the great holy church but even then he put in a lot of effort and emerged from it with dire wounds. Yet casually caught the attack of the Son of the sun, Kaido! A being only underneath the son of heaven in strength!

In their eyes, this must have been an error but to the perceptive ones, they knew it wasn’t.

Gripping the sword tightly, Gin quickly pulled out his greatsword, and even before Kaido could react, he drove the blade into his belly, deep enough to make it stick out from his back.

Puff!

Kaido spat out a mouthful of blood as his body shivered while he tried to take hold of the sword stabbing into his belly.

“Even in death you still struggle like the dog you are!” Gin snorted in disdain as his eyes let out a bright flash!

Boom!

All the energy gathered earlier poured into the blade stabbing into Kaido and it lit up brightly as a powerful beam erupted from it!

Die!

Boom!

Kaido’s body was completely severed in two and the two halves of his body fell off the sky leaving everyone confused and terrified! These two hosts have proven the stories of the son of heaven to be true!
