His voice was as if it was directly questioning something, but he continued to be alone!
"You block me at every turn and stop my advancements for your own entertainment, but do you really think creating an anomaly of an Infernal Lord will help all that much? I'm very close you know. I can…"
The gaze of Founder was bright as he reached his hands out as if grasping something only he could see in front of his eyes.
"I can...almost touch that point now. I'm almost there. When I reach that point...I'll be breaking out of your influence fully!"
RUMBLE!
His strong voice reverberated out as only he knew the target of these words, his apathetic eyes turning to the feed of the Verittas Fortress as a smile curled on his lips.
"I'm watching, little Infernal Lord. Give me a show."
Chapter 484 Like Moths to a Flame
Grandmaster Onillus heard the impetuous words of the Infernal Lord as his eyes blazed red with anger, the disrespect directed towards the Founder being something he could not tolerate!
"Destroy them all."
His words were simple and filled with wrath, the command going out to all the Prime Warships as the vessels had their World Cannons meant to destroy stationary worlds aimed and loaded, destructive red rays of light beginning to shoot out of the many Warships!
RUMBLE!
The forces of the Dark expanse were prepared as the aura of World Rank being erupted out, shimmering shields of all sorts of colors being created as the rushing rays of destructive lights met resistance.
If one took a larger view of the battlefield, they would notice many of these beams of destructive red light aimed towards the mountainous 250 meters Infernal Lord that stood imposingly!
To defend against this first attack by the collection Celestial Legion, the Wizards had pulled out their powerful wands as rays of red lights released from them and converged together, fully defending against the rays of light through sheer numbers and power as they worked with the World Realm experts.
Noah himself looked at the destructive rays of light that he once saw descend on the Lost World, this time their power not feeling all that oppressive for him as these rays that could destroy a world...he raised his Trident of the Sea towards them as numerous beams of plasma were released from the weapon!
These beams of plasma were actually dark in color because of the abilities under the [Agent of Chaos] that layered his attacks with the power of Chaos.
This also proved to be useful when it came to the rays of Aether that his identity as Crixus had cast as a Celestial, his enormous eyes watching carefully as he cast [Sever] and saw the released rays being balefully dark in color, their aura of Aether enveloped and reinforced by the power of chaos as they looked like terrible dark rays of light!
WAA!
What followed thereafter after was a wondrous scene of red rays of light meeting chaos rays that shattered the void of space, Noah going the route of offense being the best defense as his own attacks thundered forward!
"HMPH!"
A snort rang out in the battlefield as from the numerous Prime Warships, golden figures began to fly out and rapidly fill the void of space.
The golden figures were quickly overshadowed as the even larger numbers of beings from the Prime Worlds of Light Expanse also made their appearance. At the forefront of all of these forces, Grandmaster Onillus had his eyes shining with a gold splendor as he stared at Noah.
"You all can have any of the other World Realm Commanders, but this childish Infernal Lord...is mine!"
Words of the Grandmaster with more than 3 million Fate Lines reverberated strongly as a gold aura began to permeate around him and fill everything in the surroundings!
His eyes were dead set on Noah as the other World Rank Grandmasters and the single World Rank Expert from the force of the Prime Worlds had the Royal Vampyre Rokku, Commanding Mage Turner, and the Dark Wizard Shanora on their sights.
Each side had forces that spilled over hundreds of thousands, the numbers of those standing on the side of Celestials being slightly more as it was packed with beings across the chosen Prime Worlds of the Light Expanse.
OOOOOH!
"Ready to Serve!" "Ready to Destroy!"
The Infernal Legion had begun chanting again as they saw the appearance of the many figures, feeling the smell of battle and blood lust as their weapons called for destruction!
Noah's eyes snaked across the void of space as he observed all the forces, everyone currently on a standstill as the staredown before everything turned into a scene of hell continued for another few seconds.
If things went according to plan, the forces would rush towards each other as the powerful World Rank figures from Celestials clashed with their respective matches on the side of the Verittas Fortress, and the moment these powerful figures began falling, the direction of the war would be decided!
Since the Celestials had more powerhouses at the World Rank, the side of the Verittas Fortress would soon be overrun as the Experts on the other side could simply group up to attack and destroy. Thus, the figures of the Dark Expanse were feeling some worry! When the two forces rushed towards each other, this scene of chaos would be one where the Celestials could take the most advantage of, and even possibly grant them a victory!
As Noah stared at the hundreds of thousands of beings, especially the golden shining Celestials that were placed at the very center of these forces- his eyes flashed a dangerous excited color.
To him, these many beings represented an expansive amount of loots and something even bigger- Fate Lines!
His heart was screaming out for him to take all of these Celestials out by himself if he could, and feeling his heart tell him this, he wanted to make it a possibility...and so he did!
"Haha, let's play!"
His words were the spark that caused the forces of the Celestial Legion to begin rushing towards them, those from the Dark Expanse staying tightly around the Verittas Fortress as they fortified their defenses.
The moment Noah's words finished though, his mountainous 250 meter figure disappeared from its position...and shockingly teleported right at the center of the Celestial Legion that was rushing forward!
Right at the very center where most Celestials were located!
Grandmaster Onillus at the forefront who was already rushing towards Noah felt this change as he turned back in shock, his wrathful face screaming out as he turned directions quickly. He wasn't the only one as two other World Rank Grandmasters saw this, their eyes quickly communicating with each other as they also turned and went towards the Infernal Lord!
"Vile creature!"
The Infernal Lord has shockingly teleported to the very center of the hundreds of thousands of enemy forces, at the heart of the Celestial Legion where most Celestials were clustered. 3 World Rank Experts were heading his way as he smiled and spoke out slowly, his mind curious of a few things.
[Domain of Chaos] [Domain of Water][Domain of Fire] [Sea Domain] [Desecrate] [Essence Disruptor] [Destabilize]...
He released numerous Domains from the Laws he had control of as well as the buffing and debilitating Sea Domain from the Hydromancer's Mantle as the mile around him became a terribly hellish place to be in for any of his enemies. The [Desecrate] and other abilities that affected enemies and surrounding space were going even more overboard as terrified looks began to appear on the faces of Celestials that were affected, their bodies feeling the horrendous effects!
At this junction when Noah stared at the thousands of Celestials trying desperately to put up their defensive abilities and the attacks from three rushing World Rank Grandmasters, his mind was actually curious to know how beautiful his next skill towards them would be.
He was naturally thinking of the extremely powerful and overly reinforced [Sever] that from a single ray of purple-blue Aether, it could now erupt with numerous rays of Aether that were drenched dark from the Chaos Element, and had even gained the quality of chaining between enemie
s from the [Aether Chain Support]!
He wondered just how spectacular the sight would be of this extremely destructive ability being constantly spammed amidst thousands of Celestials who would in no way have a result to defend themselves!
The result...would cause the three converging World Rank Grandmasters to have shivers run down their spine as Noah spammed the command of [Sever] in his mind, essence bubbling as blinding rays of dark aether overtook the battlefield!
Chapter 485 Too OP!
In a bold and shocking move, the 9th Infernal Lord had teleported in the direct center of the Celestial Legion as the surging momentum of the entire force was disrupted, three World Rank Celestials changing their directions as their bodies rushed towards him!
Even though Noah had abruptly teleported, his commands were relayed seconds before as the Infernal Legion moved forward orderly, their sharp weapons getting ready to clash with the coming army.
The Emperor Penguin, Draco, and all the others were also shooting forward with vigor as they finally got a chance to enter the same battlefield as their master!
The feelings they had currently were those of extreme happiness, the one wish that many of them longed for so long actually being achieved today.
OOOOOH!
Reverberations spread out across the void of space as essence converged in the bodies of hundreds of thousands, but all of this seemed minimal when one looked at the dark armored body of the 9th Infernal Lord that had begun releasing truly destructive dark rays of light from his hands.
RUMBLE!
The dark rays of light were rays of Aether that were drenched in the Law of Chaos, at their base having the terrible power of Aether that was backed by numerous support skills!
All of these support skills would make for a terrible sight as at first, 6 dark rays of light shot out and instantly neared 6 unlucky Celestials, their eyes filled with terror as because of already cast abilities like [Desecrate] and the numerous Domains that Noah had cast, they could not even move their energy to raise their defenses.
They watched with terror-filled eyes as the dark rays of light struck them, their bodies being hit with a violent energy that tore them all nearly in half as their lives were ended instantly from the combination of Aether and Chaos, those that were unlucky enough to not die being hit by the [Fatal Ailment Support] that caused the energy of Aether to ravage their bodies until they died!
But what was truly horrendous...was the scene that followed thereafter as from the bodies that looked like they had their strings cut, the dark rays that had hit them...actually snaked to nearby Celestials as if they had their own wills, as if they were somehow attracted to their bodies, swiftly connecting with the surrounding beings in a chain reaction!
ZAP! ZAP! ZAP! ZAP!!!
The chain reaction looked like a dark line that zigzagged from one Celestial to another, each time it made a connection causing a being to face their death as a truly fear-inducing scene opened up in front of Noah's eyes.
From the 6 rays of Aether, more than 60 Celestials were hit and chained as they all died no matter if they were at the Void or Domain Realm, and Noah's body had already released more than 12 rays of Aether a second later as he constantly spammed the [Sever] ability!
WAA!
Grandmaster Onillus watched with a wrathful face as in the midst of Celestials, dark rays of chaotic essence that chained from one Celestial to another began to spread wildly, droves of Celestials dropping like flies thereafter as these rays seemed unstoppable.
"Vile Creature!"
He screamed put as his body glittered gold, in the space around him the appearance of ridiculously large golden spears came to life as they thundered towards the figure of the Infernal Lord.
The other two World Rank experts released their own attacks, space creaking as the energies of four World Rank experts were released in the surrounding space!
"Haha!"
ZAP! ZAP! ZAP!
Wild laughter was the only thing that met their attacks as Noah continued to release rays of Aether that chained from one Celestial to another, his happiness not just stemming from the beautiful ability, but because of the numbers of Fate Lines that had begun to shoot up rapidly!
The percentage under the Law of Fate constantly began to change in eyes as every moment a Celestial fell, it jumped higher and higher from the effect of [Fate Stealer].
RUMBLE!
The attacks of the three World Rank experts reached his heavily armored body as a majority of them were simply deflected off, only a few managing to even pierce the swirling armor of Chaos as they hit the Hydromancer's Mantle below that.
Onillus looked on with increasing fury as their attacks did not even reach the body of the Infernal, their bodies feeling pain in turn as they shockingly received Reflective damage from the abilities of Sea Domain! Onillus's body began shining even brighter as he healed himself and prepared to release an attack that could be considered an Ultimate one, his fury reaching insane levels as too many things he didn't understand occurred in this battle!
The defense of Noah that Onillus and the others were baffled by was actually something simple, as he was truly boosted by too many defensive abilities from his transformations, but especially the ones from Hydromancer's Mantle that tripled his defense in this area where he released [Sea Domain]. He was so reinforced that he would be shocked instead if the World Rank Celestials had managed to pierce his armor on the first try.
They had to put some time into it!
OOOOH!
"Ready to Serve!"
From the distance, the battle cries of the Infernals could be heard as Noah's hands continued to rain down dark rays of Aether that reaped the lives of Celestials every second, his body taking on numerous attacks from three World Rank experts as he was not bothered by it one bit.
It was a shocking scene in the battle field as one could observe a 250 meter tall figure reeling dark rays of light that wiped away hundreds of Celestials every few seconds, his body tanking the attacks of 3 other World Rank experts with ease as his chilling laugh of enjoyment rang out across the Void of space!
It was at this juncture that the bodies of the three Celestial Grandmasters shone the brightest, the varying number of Fate Lines in the millions rising from their bodies as behind the wild Infernal Lord, the palpating appearance of an enormous golden spear that was over one hundred meters materialized.
With Onillus at the center, the Celestial Grandmasters pooled in their essence to create a singular enormous spear from their combined powers, this single spear thundering down towards the Infernal Lord and finally tearing through his defenses as it rapidly rotated and drilled into his body with a splendor of gold, happy expression finally appearing in the eyes of the Grandmasters as they observed the spear to enter the chest of this Infernal Lord!
This was a spear that contained enormous amounts of the essence of Fate, something deadly to Infernal Lords that were drenched in the Law of Chaos. It pierced through the heavily armored chest of the Infernal Lord with its tip appearing drenched in blood clean through the opposite side.
With this attack, they had effectively heavily injured this monstrous figure, seeing a clear path ahead as he would be weakened to great degrees hereafter, right?
Right?!
"Haha!"
A wild laughter was all that met their happy expressions as even with an enormous spear piercing his chest, the mountainous Infernal Lord did not spit out blood or even stop the casting of his skills, the only thing changing being that his aura was becoming even more menacing, the Celestials not knowing they had pushed Noah to cast his next terrible skill.
He could be considered injured yes? So all he had to do was to heal himself. Now shockingly, there were a large number of beings running away from him that fit his requirements for healing very well, their minds already in disorder as he cast the wide area ability he had just gained for the first time.
It was an ability that would even cause the enthralled watch
ing forces of the Dark Expanse feel shivers down their spine, an ability that would actually come to be commonly known in the future as one of the loved skills of the 9th Infernal Lord…it was [Domination]!
Chapter 486 Rivers of Blood in the Void of Space
The Vampyre Ruler Vladivostok was watching with squinting eyes at the live feed of the battle, his eyes honing in on the person that had taken a central position in this battle already, the being who could somehow cast abilities of Ancient Vampyres from a long forgotten era!
He watched with shocking eyes as an enormous golden spear pierced from the back and through the chest of the Infernal Lord, rising from his seat with worry for the battle as this was a lethal attack in his eyes.
The Infernal Lords were drenched in the law of chaos, and getting a spear filled with fate essence piercing their bodies like this meant they had taken heavy damage.
Yet under the eyes of many, the Infernal Lord actually laughed as his body was pierced through!
No scream of pain or wrath from taking heavy damage, but a laugh!
This was because his body was rapidly gaining more and more Fate Lines on top of the ones he already had, the law of fate having a home in his body- so how could it harm him in a lethal manner?
The injury was one he would consider light, but it was still an injury nonetheless so Noah chose a straightforward way to heal it. It was through...Domination!
[Domination] (5/5) :: The eyes of the Fledgling Blood Ancient release a dominating light that enthralls any with weak souls. The bodies of the dominated can then be controlled to either replenish the Blood Ancient with [Blood Bag], or deal damage to surrounding enemies by [Blood Bomb].
Under the watchful gazes of numerous beings, the appearance of red eyes beneath his armored head could be seen as a single word spread across the void of space with clarity!
[Domination].
RUMBLE!
On the 250 meter tall body, the dangerously bloody eyes were now particularly vibrant and visible, a red light releasing from them as it went on to sweep to the thousands of Celestials still remaining in the surroundings.
