None, not even the Void Dragon Army, had expected such an eldritch scene. The phenomenal turn of events took them all aback, and as they awoke to the reality of the Devils' irresistible might, another dreadful enemy made her move.
"The Heavenly Demon Tablet was successfully obtained. Bring them all down!"
Yvonne ordered, and echoing her own words, joined her hands in a prayer sign. Instantly, a golden statue appeared at her back, rippling with dazzling golden light. The statue expanded, becoming a towering asexual giant with 1,000 eyes, and 10,000 blades swirling around its form!
"Dao Law: True Extermination!"
Tapping in her Extermination Monarch Bridge and cultivated skills, Yvonne instantly released her strongest ability. The golden blades multiplied, becoming trillions of weapons from the imaginable to the unimaginable before turning into a meteor shower that barrelled into the entire Void Dragon Army!
"Innate Skill: Auspicious Clouds!"
Dragon Dark and all Empyrean Dragons on the scene released their Auspicious Clouds, attempting to barricade themselves in isolated dimensions controlled solely by themselves to avoid the calamity! Alas, the golden giant opened its eyes, releasing blinding light that crushed their moves, petrified their senses, and left them helpless before the meteor shower!
Now, only Grey Soul Hurricane could protect them!
But it wouldn't!
"Valkyrie Merge!"
The Valkyries merged into a single entity, and turned into a kaleidoscopic ray of light as they hurtled at one of the formation's growing gaps!
*BANG*
With a single sword thrust, the Valkyrie broke past the Grey Soul Hurricane, tearing open a path among the discarnate souls to slam into the ancient steamer!
*CRACK*
The first crack that announced impending collapse. The sword plunged into the steamer, making a succession of cracks spread across its surface! The Valkyrie vanished in kaleidoscope mist, Yvonne's meteor shower rained, blasting the entirety of the Void Dragon Army with its full force!
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
Thundering sounds echoed left and right, as the meteor shower tore the 100,000 man-strong troops to shred. But shockingly, none suffered a fatal blow!
"Little sister-in-law, aren't you too care…"
Dragon Dark began. But before he could finish his moves, Else, Verena and Gulistan threw three gigantic grey nets rippling with the power of negation!
"Tarnation, disperse!"
Even without explanation, Dragon Dark realized the purpose of those nets! And instantly, he screamed that one order at his forces, making them scatter in various directions. The disorderly escape was meant to force the nets into spreading out thin and miss a good chunk of the army. Alas, they just spread out! No matter where the weakened Void Dragon Forces ran, the nets followed!
The nets dropped on the runaway forces, bundling them all in three sacs that nullified all their means of resistance!
"Damnable woman, let go of This Prince!"
Dragon Dark snarled, as he pointlessly thrashed against the impregnable nets. Those nets were Devil Artifacts tempered with the acme of Konrad's Negation powers and Supreme Will. There was no room for escape.
"Apologies, little brother-in-law, but my husband requested dragon meat for dinner. As his good wife, though it nears cannibalism, I ought to serve him, should I not?"
Yvonne quipped, making Dragon Dark fume with rage and indignation. The might of the Devil Forces was beyond anything they could contend with. On the scene, the Evil Body aside, none could escape this tribulation. How could his father not predict this outcome? No, nothing stood beyond the scope of Celestial Slaughter's predictions.
This must be part of the plan!
As his thoughts reached that point, though he maintained his outward struggling form, Dragon Dark inwardly calmed down. Meanwhile, Krann, the 12 Orders and their leaders battled the Evil Body in the Firmament's sky.
But no matter what ability they released, regardless of how much they pressured him, amidst a sea of millions of opponents, he remained unscathed!
"Impudent creature, how dare you rob This Sovereign?!
Innate Skill: Omniarch Will!
Bow to me!"
The Evil Body's ear-splitting snarl thundered within the orderlies' minds. Alas, to say nothing of the ones with Monarch Will, the Devil Hearts alone made it impossible for Regretless to overpower their minds. Still, hundreds of thousands recoiled, spitting large mouthfuls of blood.
The dukes and princes, however, stood strong, meeting the most perverse version of the Omniarch without fear.
"Young masters, with me!"
Krann ordered, and instantly, vanished alongside the three princes to surround the Evil Body!
"MYRIAD WORLD EXPLOSION!"
Krann, Helmut, Ube, and Elia said in tandem, causing a myriad of Innate Skills to fill the sky like miniature stars and planets before detonating in one unprecedented blast!
*BOOOOOM!*
The kaleidoscopic discharge filled the sky, preventing the onlookers from staring for more than a second. Over the years, although their bloodline strength could not catch up to his, Konrad's children all saw their lineage level enhanced. The gap between them and Regretless' Omniarch blood was marginal. As for Krann, with Konrad's current bloodline level, his left Regretless in shame.
And yet, when the clouds of the explosion's aftermath dispersed, all were startled to find a wholly unharmed figure standing in the sky! The Evil Body's hands jerked forward, releasing a myriad of palms strike that blasted the four right where they stood! Elia and Ube directly burst in blood fog, with Helmut suffering grievous injuries! And even as their immortal blood brought them back, the other two didn't fare better!
Unable to withstand the blow, Krann too collapsed!
"The gap between Quasi-Almighty and False Almighty is...so vast."
Krann stammered as his form cratered within the Firmament, thousands of kilometers below!
"A bunch of wastes. Who gave you the gall to offend This Sovereign? Even if your father was here, I would not spare him a glance!
Neutral Body!"
Regretless derisive remark was succeeded by a thundering call that immediately reached its intended target. Leaving its post, the Neutral Body appeared in the Firmament's sky, standing in silence beside the Evil Body. Although the two could exhibit Almighty level strength in their attacks, they couldn't freely use one another's unique abilities.
Only by standing side by side could they achieve that!
"Let's erase them all in...Nothingness!"
The Evil Body ordered, making the Neutral Body nod in approval. The two raised their hands, causing a gulf of pitch-black nothingness to appear around the Devil Forces, threatening to swallow them all!
But at that time, a finger snap echoed, and the gulf imploded, vanishing in an inward collapse.
"Did someone say father?"
In a twister of black winds, a figure appeared in the sky, ignoring Regretless to sweep the Devil Forces. If the golden imperial gown wasn't enough, that empyrean face all knew so well announced to the warring sides, that the Profane Prince had arrived!
"Dragon Warden, you finally deign to show yourself"
The Evil Body hissed. The Neutral one, however, made no comment. Konrad ignored them both, focusing on his forces.
"You did well. Now you can rest."
Konrad declared and swept his sleeves, causing hundreds of thousands of Firmament Fruits to tumble toward his forces. Each received one, with the last one remaining in his possession. The Evil Body's grimace-twisted face further distorted, and he sneered at Konrad's move.
"You think that by making all your Devil Monarchs rise to the peak you can defeat me? Delusional!"
He scoffed, and only then did Konrad shift his gaze toward him.
"I merely want them to enjoy a pear as they watch me crush the so-called Omniarch."
