1024 Outer Space Battle
Lifa did something to the gravitational attraction between Vrelenia and the moon a few days later. Slowly but surely, the moon drifted away from Vrelenia until it was more than four times its previous distance.
Two days before the appointed day, Elysia and all the Elysium members entered the Nature Realm to train and recover within the time chamber, with five hundred times the time difference from the outside world. The cooldown was over. Thus, it was the better option. Lifa, Rhea, and Nell didn’t hesitate to expend enormous amounts of available resources to ensure their victory on the appointed day.
*Rumble* *Rumble*
The moon shook fiercely as if it would shatter into pieces. A thick dark aura oozed out from the cracks around the moon temple and slowly contaminated the moon.
The usual bluish-white moon gradually turned a deep black covered in a thick purplish miasma.
Inside the moon temple, a human-like shadow awakened after his deep meditation.
“Hou, it’s time. Is this the taste of supreme power?” The Ruvoid God stepped out from the seal that had crumbled into powder. He clenched his hands while observing his formless body.
He had forgotten his true form, nor could he remember many details of his existence. However, one thing was sure, he craved to devour everything, even the world or perhaps… the entire universe.
His previous target was the massive blue planet before him, but the inhabitants resisted with all their might. He was sealed for a hundred thousand years as a result.
His kindred and the two particular Gods ended up being swallowed up by him. He had refined them, and his power exploded as if he felt that even the universe was already within his grasp.
“Keke… What’s that girl’s name again? Her group even refined my avatar’s fragments and turned them into two existences that oppose me. Let’s see the despair after I devour the world you’re trying to protect.” The Ruvoid God manifested a tiny dark matter on his palm. He then threw it at the planet before him for greeting.
*Swoosh!*
The dark matter was traveling close to the speed of light. Still, the force diminished significantly the closer it approached Vrelenia.
*Poof*
The greeting attack vanished into ashes before it approached the planet’s atmosphere.
The massive array formation that enveloped the entire world was activated by thousands of cores and catalysts placed in separated dimensions in the inner layer of the atmosphere. Thousands of Spirit-level or above powerhouses were already on standby to supply the massive array formation at their positions.
The judgment day had arrived, when their world destiny would be determined. Countless prayers of the inhabitants were recited as they hoped the divine beings could protect their world again and eliminate the God of Curse once and for all.
“Do you wish to grasp the upper hand in this first clash with that puny attack? I’ve been waiting for this day, Ruvoid God!” Xero emerged in the outer layer of the Vrelenia’s atmosphere. He pulled out his divine spear as if ready to counterattack.
“You lost a hundred thousand years ago, but we will put an end to your abominations this time.” Oceanid took out his divine shield and trident.
“Hmph, you want to devour us and our world? You can’t even return to where you came from and want to act like a superior being? This is about you being annihilated or us being swallowed up. There is no turning back.” Regulus summoned his inferno divine claws.
The three Gods were already clad in battle armor for the divine-class clash with the Ruvoid God. The outer space battle was about to start.
The Ruvoid God could hear the Gods’ provocation. He just grinned in response and replied through the void near them. “Mere insects, and you dare talk to me like that? Bring forth that Goddess. None of you capable of fighting me.”
“And you were defeated by a bunch of insects? You wouldn’t know. Perhaps, you would be wiped out by my hands?” Xero grinned widely.
“Ignorant. You overestimate yourself.” The Ruvoid God flew from the moon, then shot through the void, instantly grabbing Xero’s head.
*Boom!*
The supersonic explosion tore the Heretic God to pieces, but that was merely an after-image.
*Swoosh!*
“!?” The Ruvoid God evaded the swift counterattack that nearly decapitated him.
“I told you. I have prepared everything for today.” Xero activated his armor battle mode. He then shot through the distance to hunt down the Ruvoid God.
“I slightly let your guard down. You are full of yourself.” The Ruvoid God summoned countless tentacle-like hands from his back.
“Sea Trident, divine waves.”
“Inferno Claws, evaporate!”
The Oceanid produced salty water like a giant ocean wave, and Regulus made it all evaporate. The water vapor seeped into the countless tentacle-like hands.
“Disperse!” Oceanid and Regulus combined their divine law to detonate the water vapor substance.

“Hmph!” Xero unleashed his dark divine fire at close range. “Devour.”
“I already said it. You overestimate yourself.” The Ruvoid God raised his palm.
*pow*
Xero crossed his arms in front of his body. He was knocked back several hundred kilometers but could still withstand that kind of gravitational attack without hindrance.
“Hou, you tried to make a cheap copy of my race’s abilities. The curse and devour… do you think it will work in front of its progenitor? Foolish but amusing. Let’s plate for some more then.” The Ruvoid God grasped the dark divine fire and extinguished it instantly.
“Indeed!” Xero’s blood-red eyes shone brightly. He could see an exciting opportunity as his enemy extinguished his fire instead of absorbing it.
The divine clashes between the three Gods and Ruvoid God then broke out on another level. Meteorites, little stars, and even asteroids were crushed in their fight.
The inhabitants of Vrelenia watched those clashes like fireworks in outer space.
At that moment, Luna and the girls were already in their spaceship, waiting for the right moment to fire their super anti-matter cannon.
“Main cannon recharge complete, complete. Super anti-matter cannon with ninety percent energy reserve, ready to fire anytime.” Yuuki reported the arrangements.
“What? Ninety percent? Are you out of your mind, Yuuki? We only have one shot, and this spaceship won’t be able to operate optimally after that.” Sylvia was taken aback by Yuuki’s arrangement.
“That is Commander Luna’s order. We need to shoot and injure the Ruvoid God. Ninety percent is a good number. Let’s stake it on Commander Luna’s foresight ability. We can topple her from the command chair if our shot misses.” Yuuki gave a thumbs up.
“Well, so that’s your intention, Yuuki. With all the trust placed in me, it’s a bit heavy.” Luna massaged her shoulders. Elysia entrusted her with the position of leading the entire squad. Still, she received some pressure from the girls, especially Yuuki and Sylvia.
“We have enough stardust supply for another three full recharges. Also, we can combine our power for another two. So, we have five in total, but we will be exhausted with no more firepower.” Vanessa reported the results of her resource analysis.
“That sounds good. I have already released twelve decoy units and four suicide aircrafts into outer space. They are standing undercover at a safe distance according to the coordinates. Awaiting further orders.” Lynn reported the results of her work.
“We need to wait for those Gods to take a little break.” Luna closed her eyes and put two fingers to her forehead. She made a little fortune-telling and divination.
The girls waited a few minutes while watching the divine clashes and destruction far beyond mortal levels in outer space. They finally knew why Elysia and the Goddesses only allowed them to participate through indirect combat as backup support or aid. They would be obliterated to dust in that kind of divine clash.
“Now! Fire the diversion lasers simultaneously and release the suicide aircrafts to the specified coordinates. Super anti-matter cannon, fire!” Luna opened her eyes and immediately aimed at a particular spot. She pressed the firing trigger, and the main cannon fired a super anti-matter beam into outer space.
*Pew* *Pew* *Pew*
Twelve decoys opened fire around the Ruvoid God. It was easy to dodge, but four suicide toys suddenly charged toward him and exploded.
*Boom*
The poisonous green explosion threw the energy upheaval into chaos. The Ruvoid God’s divine sense was slightly disturbed, but a surprise attack suddenly hit him.
*Swoosh* *Rumble!* *Boom!*
The super anti-matter beam knocked the Ruvoid God onto a nearby asteroid.
“We did it!”
“Yatta!”
“That Ruvoid God said our resistance is that of insects, but we can at least get him hurt, right?”
“Yeah, get him exhausted. We can give him a lot of injuries before our master comes to obliterate him in one fell swoop!”
“We are together strong!”
The girls cheered as the super anti-matter beam hit the Ruvoid God head-on.
The devastating explosion obliterated nearly half of the asteroid, but unfortunately, the Ruvoid God emerged unharmed.
Magic attacks did not affect him, and physical attacks inflicted almost no damage. The anti-matter beam couldn’t even harm his divine law protection. Thus no significant damage was received.
“Anti-matter… This kind of mortal attack is useless. Is this all you have? Much weaker and cheaper than a hundred thousand years ago.” The Ruvoid God brushed off the dust from his human-like shadow body.
