844 Heavenly Battlefield (1)
“…” Elysia and everyone else waited for a while inside the magic circle formation.
It had been a few minutes, but the scenery was still blurry. They are still moving from place to place through the heavenly realm. It seemed Earth Mother wanted to take everyone straight to the Seventh Heaven.
At that moment, Xentia stole glances several times at Elysia. She believed that Elysia was an impressive Goddess. Still, she understood that there was more to it than that because she could feel it just because of Elysia’s current appearance.
Compared to her, the current Elysia was more suitable to be called the Angel of Destruction. However, someone told her last night that Elysia has multiple forms. Elysia’s Angel of Destruction mode was really scary if Elysia was serious.
“We will save the world and heaven. Evil will end upon our arrival.” Elysia spoke in a whisper-like voice as she noticed Xentia’s sparkling gaze.
“Yes, we will save the world.” Xentia raised her fist.
*Rumble!*
A slight shaking occurred, and Gaia deactivated her formation as they had already arrived at their destination.
The scene that greeted everyone was no longer a sea of sacred golden white clouds but a reddish cloud that seemed sinister. The beautiful clear sky had been replaced with a gloomy blood-red atmosphere.
Several floating islands were contaminated with a pitch-black substance that emitted a terrifying aura, and there was no sign of life within a ten-kilometer radius.
For one glance, anyone would think the apocalypse had fallen on heaven.
“In the name of heaven… What has happened here?”
“It’s the Seventh Heaven! We’ve been away for a few days from the Heaven Realm, and the situation already this worse?”
“Look at the pitch black sky in the nine o’clock direction! A great battle is going on there!”
The deities muttered in shock, but someone suddenly noticed a great battle in the distance.
“Then what are we waiting for? We’re going there now!” One of the brave deities raised his spear and prepared to dash into battle. Still, everyone didn’t immediately follow him, and that confused him.
He looked back and found that the Earth Mother and the divinities from other worlds had not immediately gone into battle.
“Everyone, please listen to me. You could die anytime, but we must protect the Heaven Realm from the Cursed God threat. Use all your might. If your magic doesn’t work on your opponent, make sure you have hidden aces that deal physical damage, and it’s without direct magic. The accursed has an unbelievably high resistance to magic and can absorb it dry to strengthen itself.” Gaia told everyone the essential points to know.
“Ooh!” The young deities cheered.
‘Xero, please be careful.’ Nell sent telepathy as Xero was about to dash away at the front.
‘Your worries are unnecessary but fine. Give me some buffs after the first batch of battles.’ Xero only glanced at Nell for a moment, then shot off towards the battlefield at high speed.
“We’re leaving too.” Lifa invited everyone, and no one had any objections. She was the head of the overall plan, but Elysia was the key to victory in this battle.
Because of that, Elysia’s group flew away in a defensive formation where Elysia was in the middle. Gaia followed right beside Elysia’s group, then all the deities immediately followed and flew in defensive formation. They made Elysia’s group the vital force in this battle.
“Don’t die, or you will embarrass your ancient title, old man.” Arthrozan laughed, then shot past the speed of sound. He preceded the main force to overtake the Heretic God from another world.
“Yare, yare, the young is so excited, huh…” Zhao Fu shook his head and immediately followed the others to the battlefield. He was the last one on the way, but he harbored high enthusiasm to face the so-called Ruvoid God, an enemy that could threaten the other world.
Just as the reinforcements from the Earth Realm were close to the heavenly battlefield with the crimson sky filled with black clouds, a noise could be heard from a distance. It was rapidly approaching, along with a foreboding of danger.
“Aias!” Gaia widened her eyes and immediately activated her divine protective artifact.
*Swoosh!* *Rumble!*
The enormous golden lightning struck them from above. The immense pressure suppressed everyone, and the electricity spread in all directions. Fortunately, a large sakura petal barrier protected everyone from the severe impact.
“You managed to survive this time, huh. Who would have thought the Earth Mother would come to the Heaven Realm.” An arrogant voice echoed from the sky.
“You used Council divine thunder. The one used to inflict divine judgment you used for personal gain!? Odavius, Agoris, come before me! I’m very disappointed in you.” Gaia felt annoyed and disappointed.
She looked deep into the Council’s floating island and was able to draw a conclusion. The Council had already fallen into the hands of the Ruvoid God. Those two Ancient Gods, the Council’s leaders, had defected from the laws of heaven.
“Haha, unfortunately, they can’t entertain you. They are busy in their enlightenment state.” The voice from the sky sounded amused.
“Your actions cannot be tolerated or pardoned, Cursed God. That is a grave mistake if you think your scheme will work. Don’t think I don’t know where this is going.” Gaia gave a gesture to everyone to advance deeper. They needed to join the Divine Association in the distance.
“Ho? Can you understand my scheme? Do you think your arrival at the Heaven Realm is a good decision? Maybe when you return, the Earth Realm will no longer exist. Do you know what I wanted to achieve then?” Alashor is feeling intrigued.
“We have our own plans, and you will never succeed. Your ignorance of the situation in the Earth Realm proves it all.” Gaia didn’t fall for that provocation.
*Bzzt*
When everyone entered the black cloud domain, a transparent wall seemed to hit everyone. Their escape route was sealed because of the domain laws.
“So no one can escape, huh… The Divine Association must be too overwhelmed to fight for a long time.” Lifa checked the domain’s wall. She couldn’t make a path out, and it was pretty mysterious.
“Their resistance posed no threat to me. Meet me, and I will remind you of the true terror of the Ruvoid Race!” Alashor burst into laughter, and the sky fell silent again. Only the distant noise of fighting could be heard faintly.
“We gave you the opportunity to repent, but you still have that vile domineering tendency. Why would you do that? What is your purpose in doing something like this?” Elysia muttered to the sky, but she expected no response.
“Was it a mistake to let you go then? You truly deserve heavy punishment. In that case, you leave us with no other choice.” Elysia sighed and made up her mind.
After that, everyone flew toward the Council’s floating island. The previous impromptu attack was only a welcome from the Ruvoid God. Still, obstacles came the moment they arrived in the heavenly battle.
The God in the goose feather cloak was battling dozens of black cursed puppets, but he was blown away by the blow of the clash. He stabilized himself in mid-air, but he suddenly noticed the presence of a group of reinforcements. “You deities from the Earth Realm? Reinforcements?”
“Yes, we don’t know your situation in the Heaven Realm yet, but it seems to be the worst here. Where is Ileus, the God King?” Gaia asked, but her gaze was still at the Council’s island. She felt something dangerous was about to be brought out, but that required preparation.
“The God King was injured from the previous clash with the Wizard God. He is currently in the Celestial Palace. The fight is endless, and the Council seems to be aiming for something in the Heaven and Earth Realm. Watch out for the black cursed angel!” The God in goose feather cloak swung his sword into empty air, sending dozens of black cursed puppets flying away.
He then flew away, but not before reminding everyone. “Time is pressing. You’re part of the Divine Association, right? We have to slay those black cursed puppets and seize Council Island! Council’s goals must be terminated immediately whatever reason they have!”
“We are going to the Celestial Palace first. Everyone, please protect the Celestial Palace and exterminate those black cursed puppets.” Gaia asked the deities for help, and everyone agreed without a second thought.
They were sensitive enough to realize that their arrival was unexpected by the Ruvoid God. It was faster than his estimate. The Ruvoid God was probably preparing something right now, and because of that, they also needed to do something first.
However, Xero and Arthrozan weren’t waiting for anything or anyone as they simply eradicated all the black cursed puppets blocking their path to the Council’s island. They had arrived there, to be precise.
‘Ely, Xero can take care of himself. We go to the Celestial Palace to update our information before the action. I believe the Ruvoid God is currently doing something against us. You are the greatest threat to him.’ Elena gave a suggestion as Elysia stared at the Council’s island.
‘He seems to be ignoring me, though? Apparently, his goals are something else. What he wants to do to the Heaven Realm and Earth Realm is still a mystery to us.’ Elysia immediately went after Gaia to a golden floating island with her entire group.
“Don’t we jump straight into the battlefield? Xentia wants to dance and eradicate those black cursed puppets.” Xentia was confused because they were moving away from the battlefield now.
“It’s fine if you want to help them eradicate those black cursed puppets around the Celestial Palace, but we need to update our information first. Let’s split the team into two tasks here.” Rhea nodded and sent telepathy to everyone in the group.
The defense team went with Elysia to meet the God King, and the offensive team was tasked with clearing the black cursed puppets around the Celestial Palace.
They would ignore the Council’s floating island for a while because there had been no significant aggression since the previous welcome attack.
Xentia, Sylvia, Lynn, Vanessa, and Lynn flew away to complete their task. Nell was also asked to look after them as a support.
“Well, it’s an easy thing to just clean those black cursed puppets from around the Celestial Palace.” Nell immediately flew after the offensive team.
It wasn’t the first time they had encountered curse-bearing creatures, and their current opponents were just lifeless soulless dolls. The extermination was merciless. The reinforcements from another world greatly assisted the Divine Association’s resistance in eliminating the thousands of black cursed puppets who tried to break into the Celestial Palace.
