289 Chapter 289: Lending a hand

Hearing Derik and Cyrus' words scared everyone on the side of the empire to death. They watched in horror as the entire mountain range where their sects were built was promptly shrouded in immense life and death aura, spreading fast like a plague.

BOOM!!!

BOOM!!!

Leaving behind a loud explosion, a huge golden spear and a glittering silver bone spear shrouded in death aura shot out like a rocket, aiming precisely for the two gold realm masters of the empire.

Life magic: Judgement spear!!!

Death magic: Bone spear!!!

Both peerless masters roared and their voice carried an invisible force that empowered all those under them. Agus and Fernandos laid on the bare ground with their eyes open wide and their glowing golden eyes dimming as the seconds ticked by. Blood flowed out from their wounds profusely and their breathing became heavy, they could only silently wait for death but then Cyrus' voice echoed in their ears and the life aura which the golden spear carried washed over them giving them a breath of life.

"Hoooooo!" Agus gasped as his eyes let out a bright golden light.

"Hahahahahahaha!" Fernando's laughed in a crazed manner as his aura spiked, exploding violently.

Meanwhile, all over the battlefield, numerous pillars of golden aura filled the air and all those who were fleeing for their lives earlier from the roots turned around and charged at their enemies respectively. The usual peaceful light aura they carried vanished at that instant, leaving only wrath.

The wrath of a god!

"Our God has blessed us, He will never forsake us! we cannot lose!" They roared as they fought against Francis roots and vines like ferocious beasts.

....................................…..

"Damn…" Gin was terrified by the sudden transformation of these people.

He suddenly realized how much he underestimated the power of life and death magic. The ability to nurture such powerful subordinates and even empower their members with mere words was just too terrifying.

"This is crazy, right?" Donald threw the question at Kira.

When Kira didn't respond, Donald and Gin were forced to turn their attention to the three demon commanders and members of the palace of the dead below. Only at this point did they notice that all three hundred thousand soldiers that marched to this very location were slaughtered to the very last member.

Growl!

Kira's red eyes were blood red and a red mist diffused from his body while he growled like a wild beast. They soon noticed Kira wasn't the only one affected by Derik's violent aura, even the survivors of the bloody war were all forced into a berserk state by Derik's aura.

Meanwhile, Francis's face turned cold since he could feel the killing intentions the golden spear heading his way carried. The attack was so abrupt that he knew dodging the attack was close to impossible so he chose to take it head on.

"I'm not afraid of any of you anymore!" Francis roared, refusing to believe he wasn't their match. If he were still at the low grade of the gold realm, he would have been terrified but things are different now. At the mid-grade of the gold realm he could be considered Derik and Cyrus equal! He had no reason to fear

With a loud cry, he waved his hands, recalling all the roots and vines chasing after the members of the palace of light while summoning more to create a spherical root dome.

Boom!!!

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

"I'm sorry!" Diana panicked and turned her back on Derik's death spear, trying to flee. The speed of the attack greatly surpassed hers and the bone spear quickly closed in on her, almost penetrating her defenseless back.

Luckily for her, the growth type magic weapon in her possession was at the gold realm level, granting to a mind of its own. That's why it could act on its own and prevent Gerald's group from reaching Diana previously. Feeling the fear its master was experiencing, the massive crescent moon descended from the skies, shielding Diana with its huge body.

Moon magic: Moonlight!

The magic weapon didn't wait for the scared moon mage to recover, so it quickly activated on of its abilities, releasing dazzling silver light before the light was focused into a beam of silver light, darting towards the bone spear.

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

Boom!

Boom!!

Boom!!!

Francis watched his vine sphere crumble slowly as golden light sipped into the dark hole where he hid. His eyes were showed fear as he quickly broke away from the dome, attempting to flee but as soon as he left the dome and stopped reinforcing it with his energy, the golden spear broke through and struck at him!

"Damn you!"

With no choice left Francis roared as he pushed his hands forward while releasing a terrifying amount of mana to reinforce his body.

Bang!

Bang!!

Bang!!!

Francis spat out a mouthful of blood while he retreated, and his face turned pale. He refused to believe the power gap between them was still this much even though they were in the same grade and realm. Unknown to him, after flying over the endless sea for weeks and battling numerous gold realm monsters of different kinds, Derik and Cyrus have grown stronger. They relied on the life force of all the monsters they have defeated to further improve their realm. Even now they were at the peak of the mid-grade of the gold realm. All they needed now was just a huge push to break into the next grade of their realm.

"Ghaaa!" Francis cried out in pain as his hands which was used to stop the spear exploded, turning into a bloody mist. The spear further proceeded to pierce his chest, leaving a gaping hole where his heart is meant to be. But that wasn't enough to kill him! His ability to control the nature element of this world granted him great healing abilities. His wounds started to heal as soon as it happened and his hands began to regrow. He could only stand and watch Diana struggle with the bone spear, unable to lend her a hand or support in any way.
