Chapter 488 Invincible Across the Three Realms
Though the various Celestial Deities could no longer witness the ongoing battle, its intensity only soared to new heights. Flying on top of his Devil Trident, wielding a war-hammer in one hand and a broadsword in another, Konrad broke into a macabre dance, whirling his nefarious weapons at the two False Overgods.
The Overlord met the Natal Devil Artifact with his Infernal Dominion while the Warden withstood the Omnislayer with his Heaven Warding Will!
*BANG* *CLANG* *BANG*
Booming and ringing sounds intertwined in the subatomic space as the three clashed at a level the Three Realms had never seen before, exchanging millions of moves in every heartbeat!
"Hahaha, boy, I like your style!"
The Overlord praised before bending his Infernal Dominion in a horizontal slope.
"Absolute War Sense!"
Truth and Life Laws erupted alongside War Laws as the fourth layer of the Absolute War Sense kicked into gear, magnifying the Overlord's strength ten-thousand fold! But this merely was the beginning!
"Awakening War Legions!"
The Overlord bellowed, releasing the Absolute War Sense's strongest ability, and causing the ground, dust, debris, the air, everything visible and invisible to turn into War Machines! Wind beasts, golems, and treants rose in legions while even the Warden felt a dreadful concentration of War forces enhance all abilities at its disposal.
"Indeed, it's been a while since I've had such a worthy opponent. What a pity that you stand against Heaven's Will!
Mount Meru!"
As the Warden activated the Sixth Ancient Secret, a galaxy dwarfing mountain appeared behind its back. The northern side of that mountain was of pure gold, the southern of lapis lazuli, the eastern of crystal, and the western of ruby. Around that mountain, the sun and moon hovered, and below, a cosmic sea rose. The Warden vanished, reappearing on top of that mountain to sit crossed-legged and propel it toward Konrad.
Though his Might Reversal Physique's ten Forbidden Locks could repel most Legendary Gods' blows, those False Overgods' were a whole other matter. The Warden on the left, the Overlord on the right. Both hurtled at Konrad in a battle-frenzy he met with matching vigor!
"TRANSCENDENT DEATH GATE!"
Konrad crossed his war-hammers, causing the symbol of his Death Transcendence, a pitch-black gate to appear at his back. The gate opened its doors, releasing a Konrad-made Underworld, endless dark-yellow rivers that unfurled on his foes, obliterated the Mount Meru and War Beasts in one go!
*BOOOM*
The mountain burst in millions of particles and like a meteor, the Warden flew backward! Not better off, the Overlord hurtled back! And as the two regained their stances, for the first time since the beginning of times, they felt their insides riddled with organ failures, and their life essence and soul weaken as irresistible death settled within!
"We have no other recourse. Do it! I shall cover you!"
The Overlord snarled while his left fingers bent in incantation gestures. As the fingers moved, Konrad could feel the Overlord's cultivation base burn at its brightest. This was his final move!
"Overgod Decree!"
The Overlord slammed his left hand against the empty air, causing a dimly lit parchment condensing the entirety of his cultivation base to appear and hover before his weakening form! On that parchment, Konrad could see the many flaws that marked it as an incomplete Overgod Decree.
But even that incomplete force could sentence all across the Three Realm to destruction. All except the two on the scene, of course. Golden light burst from the decree, channeling the energies of all atoms across ten-thousand kilometers in one lethal strike!
Konrad's Transcendent Death Gate rushed to meet the challenge, its dark-yellow rivers calling the souls of millions of deceased to empower it all, and clash with that divine decree!
"AAAAAAAAARGH!"
The Overlord roared as he burned his very life-force to sustain the clash! Alas, while he remained stuck in life-force burning, Konrad burned his Myriad World Immortal Blood!
*BOOOOM!*
Instantly, the Death Gate's might overwhelmed the Overlord's best efforts, the decree was torn to shreds, and the aftermath obliterated Hell's number one deity's armor, charring his pitch-black skin as he tumbled toward the ground!
After refining all that Primogen Blood, Konrad's strength had risen to absurd heights. On this day, even those two top deities couldn't oppose him! But since they couldn't, others would! The Warden finished his incantation, and raised flaming hands toward the sky, to summon the strongest force at Heaven's Herald's disposal!
"HEAVEN'S WRATH!"
*GRR* *GRR* *GRR*
As the Warden bellowed, divine radiance filled the sky alongside mesmerizing celestial clouds that grumbled to announce a deluge of tribulation lightning! But this was not lightning meant to test one cultivator, no, it was an avatar of extinction, the very blow of Heaven's Will using the Warden as proxy!
Millions of white thunderbolts descended from above to slam Konrad where he stood. But at that time, the Essence Nurturing Forest's transformation ended, with the dwarf tree maturing to become a nine-kilometer tall treant. Alongside it, the Primogen Fruits had fully ripened!
Feeling this, as he faced Heaven's Wrath, Konrad guffawed.
"Hahahahaha! Having pushed me to this stage, you can take pride in yourselves. However, it all ends now!
Innate Skill: Auspicious Clouds!"
Konrad roared, and around his body, hundreds of rainbow-colored clouds appeared, swirling in ordered spins while golden light burst from his form. The Auspicious Clouds isolated the domain, separating the three from Heaven's reach while unleashing their suppression on both the Overlord and the Warden!
Instantly, the two found themselves unable to gather their strength. Worse, it plummeted at breakneck speed! It was as if the entirety of their laws and cultivation had vanished in one go. For indeed, Before Konrad's current Auspicious Clouds, Primal Law Embodiment aside, all was invalid!
He'd finally caught up to Celestial Slaughter in the might of that Innate Skill!
"How...how can this possibly be? We...are...Quasi-Overgods!"
The Overlord stammered, unable to believe his eyes, to believe a skill able to erase his Life, Truth and Fate Wielding existed! How was this feasible?
"To say nothing of False Overgods. Even if you were a Primordial Deity, before my Auspicious Clouds, without Primal Law Embodiment, you are...nothing more than an ant!"
Konrad retorted, vanished to reappear above the Overlord, and trampled his face with a vicious kick, shattering his skull, and sending him tumbling toward the ground!
There, he cratered!
"D...Defeated...I've been...defea-ted…"
*PUH*
Battered and broken, the Overlord spurted a massive gush of blood, and passed out!
Without delay, Konrad vanished, appeared before the Warden, curved his right hand into a claw strike and struck the herald's chest!
*BANG*
But as the irresistible strike tore through the invalid Warden's chest, shattered bones and let blood erupt, Konrad's face contorted into a frown, and as if to answer his stupor, the Warden's shroud dispersed, revealing…
"HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!"
Before the Warden's shroud collapsed, an ear-splitting shriek resounded within the Celestial World as the Essence Treant rose to flee a battle it knew it couldn't win!
Without delay, Konrad yanked his hand free of the Warden's chest and turned into a black meteor to rush after the Treant and Primogen Fruits.
The Treat had not even taken three steps that Konrad blasted his way through its trunk, reducing its new life to a regal nothing before snatching the Fruits that unrighteously belonged to him!
Opening his mouth, Konrad swallowed the fruits one after the other, letting his bloodline strength break through new limits, and rise to an unprecedented peak!
