Chapter 717: Sun

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“The Sun God Palace... is collapsing?”

Jay and Zorro’s spiritual wills contained some astonishment as they looked at the Sun God Palace crumbling.

“Impossible. Unless someone was destroying it from the inside. This is an artifact!”

Zorro was grave. The eighteen slaughter clones suddenly combined into one and charged into the depths of the God Palace.

The Sun God Palace was merely a name. Its interior had many empty spaces come together layer upon layer, just like a huge maze.

Usually, with Pope Saint George in charge, even a God would require a lot of time and effort to be able to break through the many obstructions and reach the core. Unless they were like Fang Yuan, who could directly crack them by using the position of divinity and his own deductions.

However, the entire God Palace was currently collapsing and simply unable to resist two frenzied True Gods.

“Who’s there?”

“Someone’s ahead of us!”

Jay’s voice carried immense fury and bitter cold hatred. “That despicable thief! Disgraceful burglar! I want to suppress his soul within the fires of the Evil Demons and let it burn for a thousand years!”

He could clearly detect that there was an existence that had secretly infiltrated inside while they were attacking the barrier, perhaps even obtaining many benefits.

Each with their own thoughts, the two Gods tore apart the final protective cover.

Buzz Buzz!

The screen burst like a bubble and revealed a huge empty space.

What stood out most was the huge golden pond in the ground. Piercing lights constantly emitted from within, as if the sun had plummeted.

But at this time, regardless of whether it was Zorro or Jay, their attention was attracted to that figure standing erect on the golden pond.

There was a pitch-dark, huge human figure wearing black armor. The three pairs of golden wings on his back spread open like huge hands covering the skies, instantly enveloping the entire giant pond.

The illusion of the Nine Tier Purgatory endlessly enhanced his body, causing him to emanate an aura far more horrifying than an Evil Demon grand duke.

Without doubt, this was the lord of the Evil Demons!

Furthermore, even the divinity within their bodies was violently fluctuating, as if it was about to escape.

“The Master of the Nine Tier Purgatory! The source of divinity—Apophis!”

With just one glance, the two Gods shouted the God Name of this pitch-black human figure, an indescribable fear emerging in their hearts.

It was this existence that had defeated Sun God Ramon with one blow, established the Nine Tier Purgatory, and scattered divinity.

“Impossible!” Zorro’s legs were slightly weak, and he was nearly about to flee. “Wasn’t the true body of Apophis already destroyed, his will being his sole existence? What kind of will can be so powerful?”

“Haha... Apophis, you actually took the initiative to reveal yourself! Great!”

Jay’s entire body was shivering, and a blood-red glow emitted from his eyes. “Why would I need to wait for the Sons of Purgatory to be in the Demon Territory to determine the final outcome? As long as I defeat you here, I am the true Master of the Purgatory!

“Death Wither!”

He suddenly transformed into a huge Evil Demon and charged toward the person in black armor.

“I can’t let Apophis swallow up Sun God Ramon, or he’ll definitely ascend to an even higher level. The Sons of Purgatory like me would have no further opportunities!”

Understanding this, Zorro overcame his fear. Eighteen figures dispersed while charging forward. “Slaughter domain!”

Two huge illusionary God Nations appeared.

Death and Slaughter!

These were the pinnacle Godhoods within the Evil Gods. At this moment, they were combined to collaborate in resisting against the source of the Evil Demons.

Under the expectant gazes of Zorro and Jay, the powers of two domains crashed loudly against the illusion of the Purgatory, instantly releasing a crisp sound that resembled shattering glass and disappearing without a trace.

No!

They did not completely vanish.

In the senses of Zorro and Jay, their powers were completely absorbed by that black figure, leaving behind no traces.

“Impossible!” Zorro was astonished. “Death and Slaughter are obviously powers that have different properties, so how can they both be absorbed? What kind of existence is Apophis?”

However, Jay was obviously already unable to worry so much.

A strong death aura broke out from his body and transformed into a beam of light, directly crashing into the human figure.

Bloop! Bloop!

A black hole seemingly appeared on that black figure’s shoulders, endlessly swallowing the beam of light. However, it then shook a bit, and its form seemed to be much thinner.

“Don’t be so scared. Our attacks are still slightly effective!”

Zorro’s eyes opened wide as he similarly waved. Surging power that was like a huge dragon waking roared and landed on that black figure’s body.

They had unceasingly killed and bleed for their divinity, eventually successfully apotheosizing. Their Godhoods were also powerful and full of potential. In other words, their abilities were entirely on par with the Nine Pillar Gods.

At this point, the black figure was continuously becoming thinner, revealing the scene below.

Kaboom!

Accompanying a large explosion, the fierce black shadow thoroughly burst and revealed an ordinary human figure.

His figure was blurry and wearing armor, while his hand held a dazzling fireball that emitted eye-piercing brilliance like a small sun.

Two rays of pitch-black and blood-red were circling the sun, as if they were assisting in its refinement.

“This isn’t good!” How horrifying was a God’s thought process? Just by seeing this, Zorro and Jay immediately understood everything. “Apophis is using our powers to refine Sun God Ramon and block his final retaliation!”

After all, Sun God Ramon was the original God. Even though he was in a heavily injured state, he was not someone that Fang Yuan could easily defeat.

However, by using the strength of the two Evil Gods and the favor of destiny on their bodies, he was able to substitute one thing for another and deceive everyone to finally succeed in his plans.

“I’m still lacking in ability to refine the Sun Godhood alone. Most importantly, I still needed to obtain the support of native powers as a key... And according to the favor of destiny, Zorro and Jay were the ones with the most potential. But they obviously weren’t going to assist me...”

Fang Yuan raised the torrent of light and suddenly pressed it toward his chest.

Just now, he had intentionally displayed the black figure in black armor. It was merely a ruse.

This had attracted the two Evil Gods to take the initiative unleashing their powers, but he had secretly borrowed their powers and suppressed the final retaliation of Ramon’s will, obtaining the entire Sun Godhood!

Seeing this, the eyes of Zorro and Jay nearly popped out, but they were basically helpless.

Just now, they had mustered all of their strength, causing them to be extremely exhausted. To recover, they needed a short period of time.

And in this extremely critical short period, Fang Yuan had already merged the torrent of light into his body.

“Ah, Sun...” he muttered in a low voice, his entire body releasing an unparalleled brilliance.

This light was dazzling and carried warmth and scorching heat, completely alike the brilliance of the previous Sun God.

Upon seeing this, Zorro and Jay’s hearts instantly sank.

...

Orchid Kingdom.

Church of Harvest.

Willa suddenly raised her head and looked at the sky with an extremely frightened expression..

The Joy Lady beside her opened her mouth wide in an inelegant manner.

“What happened?”

A bit later, a giant dark shadow projected onto the land.

All the mortals raised their heads and looked up at the sky.

It was exactly noon, with the sun hanging high up in the sky.

However, like the sharp claws of an Evil Demon, lines of black cracks visible to the naked eye endlessly spread and extended toward the sun.

Just like a solar eclipse, huge black shadows covered the sun.

“Sun...”

“God...”

“Great Ramon, please don’t leave us...”

Many mortals were frantic and prayed toward the sun. But all their methods were completely ineffective.

Black spots slowly but surely swallowed the sun, causing the entire world to plunge into utter darkness.

After a while, a dazzling glow appeared and a shimmering diamond appeared in the sky, which then expanded to become a crescent before finally transforming into a complete sun.

Seeing this scene, the mortals cheered for joy, so happy that they wept.

However, the great beings above Legends frowned in unison. “The sun... is different!”

“The Sun Godhood... has been stolen!”

Willa looked at the sky with an unprecedented seriousness. “Ramon... has died!”

The Joy Lady beside her became silent.

Although it had reached an era of chaos, and it was possible for any of the Gods to die, even the Death God being the first, the death of the Sun God, the most powerful among them succumbing to this fate, still made her hair stand on end.

“Who’s the killer? A Son of Purgatory? Some hidden high-level Legend? Or perhaps a True God?”

Willa rapidly thought and started deducing what changes this transformation would bring to the world.

And shortly after, the surrounding environment started to slightly change.

This transformation was extremely slight, and the Joy Lady glanced at the Harvest Goddess with a contemplative look.

“I’ve obtained the revelation of destiny!” Willa was solemn. “The battle of the destiny for divinity has already begun... All the Gods need to enter the Demon Territory to resist the ultimate evil being!”

“The ultimate evil being?”

“Yes. The Nine Tier Purgatory will be rising up from the Netherworld into the Main World!”

The Harvest Goddess said in chant-like voice, “Apophis, Lord of the Evil Demons, Master of the Nine Tier Purgatory, master of slaughter, chaos, and death, will be inside the Nine Tier Purgatory awaiting the arrival of the final battle!”

...

“Apophis!!” Jay roared in profound desolation.

Evidently, they were no match for Apophis. After he swallowed the Sun God, everything was even more evident.

Fang Yuan glanced at Jay indifferently and abruptly said, “I said... the sun is under my control!”

At the moment, he was the image of Apophis. The armor on his body became dark golden, and an icy cold mask completely covered his face.

“The Purgatory will soon rise up to the world!”

Kaboom!

With his declaration, the entire Demon Territory trembled violently, and its borders started expanding fiercely.

Furthermore, throughout the lands, the form of the Nine Tier Purgatory could be seen.

“Is this a real Chaos Evil God?” Zorro looked at this scene and laughed bitterly. “In their eyes, are we just... ants?”

Whoosh!

Accompanying the death of the Sun God and the expansion of the Demon Territory, the entire God Nation immediately stared to collapse.

No matter how unwilling Jay was, he could only choose to retreat first.

Zorro followed close behind. Suddenly, his eyes shifted and discovered Amanda and the others sealed within the crystals.

He waved his hand and the crystals instantly disappeared.
