Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 278 Chapter277-One Force Breaks All Laws

A cold glint flashed in John's eyes as an even more formidable energy burst forth from within him.

The Divine Palace swung out again, striking heavily against the dark divine power encircling Ghana.

Where the blade's radiance touched, it seemed as if the very air was torn asunder.

Ghana's eyes flickered, revealing an extreme malevolence.

Swiftly, he lifted the Libra, transforming it into a beam of dark light aimed at John.

With an impassive face, John raised his sword to meet Ghana's assault.

Moving as fast as lightning, he gracefully dodged Ghana's encroaching dark divine power, while his Divine Palace danced incessantly in his hand.

Its radiant blade streaked through the air, like the light of stars piercing the night.

Ghana laughed maliciously, a hint of cunning glinting in his blood-red eyes.

He swung the Libra again, and a surge of dark divine power erupted, unleashing a storm of black light, heading straight for John.

Sensing the ferocity of the oncoming black storm, John slightly furrowed his brow.

With a gentle wave of his free left hand, a divine shield instantly enveloped him.

Divine Guardian, the optimal defense skill against dark attribute attacks.

The storm of black light collided with the shield, causing a series of explosive sounds.

John, holding the Divine Palace, stood firm and unyielding.

Suddenly, John noticed a change in the silver Libra in the hands of the Soul-Devouring Devil.

The wide-open mouths of the twin skulls on it began to slowly close, and a profound darkness began to amass.

Ghana deliberately took slow steps forward, as if guiding something.

John's gaze sharpened, realizing that Ghana might be preparing to unleash some kind of ultimate skill.

However, John felt no fear.

In fact, deep down, he was quite keen to witness the might of a weapon that had grasped the power of ORDER on its own.

Seeing John unmoving, a chilling and malevolent smile spread across Ghana's grotesque demonic face.

The sheer audacity of this human genuinely delighted him.

The reason his vertical pupil had connected with the silver Libra before was to channel the devouring ORDER's power within the Libra using his dark divine energy.

The soul ORDER he controlled was, after all, his foundational power, meant to suppress internal injuries.

However, the devouring ORDER of the silver Libra was not bound by this limitation.

It could be unleashed with unrestrained might.

The Soul-Devouring Devil Ghana couldn't fathom that the human before him could resist the power of ORDER.

It was, after all, the highest form of energy in the Godslayer realm.

It could strike directly from the ORDER dimension...

A vast dark divine power emanated from within Ghana, all of it channeling into the Libra in his hand.

The Libra gradually illuminated with a twisted, pitch-black radiance and astonishingly levitated from Ghana's grasp.

The twin skulls hanging from it opened and closed their jaws, as if mocking the world endlessly.

A faint luminescence emerged from the top of the silver Libra, slowly magnifying and evolving into a swirling vortex of black light.

John sharply arched an eyebrow, an unprecedented look of gravity appearing in his eyes.

He had just attempted to probe the black vortex with his divine power, only to be taken aback by the realization that his sweep of divine energy detected absolutely nothing.

Moreover, upon retracting his divine power, John eerily sensed that it had grown significantly weaker.

It seemed as if a portion of his divine power had permanently lodged itself within the black vortex.

So, this was the power of the Devouring ORDER.

A glint flickered in John's eyes, his expression reflecting a rare seriousness.

Not only had his divine power been consumed, but everything surrounding the vortex also vanished without a trace — be it basic elements or anything else.

It was unmistakably a miniature black hole, devouring everything in its path.

It seemed as if the very air was being sucked into the void.

The silver Libra started to emit a spine-chilling noise, seemingly on the verge of crumbling apart.

Positioned behind the Libra, Ghana struggled to control the direction of the devouring black vortex.

His face twisted in malevolence, he panted with manic laughter, "Foolish human, daring to stand by as I unleash the Devouring ORDER. What gave you the audacity to challenge the might of the ORDER?"

"Since you're so arrogantly confident, enjoy the bitter consequences that follow..."

With a soft snort, John moved like lightning, darting to and fro, rapidly approaching the black vortex.

The Divine Palace's sword radiance shone brilliantly, illuminating the entire battlefield.

With a single swing, John released a dazzling surge of sword energy.

However, no matter the potency of his assault, it would eventually be consumed wholly by the black vortex.

This vortex continued to grow, seemingly feeding and expanding upon all that it consumed.

John's expression grew increasingly somber, realizing he could no longer afford to hesitate.

If he allowed the black vortex to continue its relentless consumption, it was likely that everyone would inevitably meet a devoured fate.

Energy coursed frenetically within John, all channeling into the Divine Palace.

Before him, a vast blade of radiant energy slowly took form.

This blade emitted an endless luminescence, soaring high and shining brilliantly.

[Unrivaled Strike (Divine Talent): After training day and night, perfecting your martial skills, you've finally comprehended this lethal strike. When activated in battle, this blow harnesses the power of the ORDER between heaven and earth, capable of breaking all shackles, even gods find it hard to resist.]

Believing not even deities could withstand this fatal blow, John was convinced that a crudely realized equipment weapon harnessing the ORDER of consumption couldn't possibly endure it unscathed.

The massive sword energy roared, crashing heavily upon the black vortex.

Just as John had anticipated, a deafening boom resounded, causing the entire Soulstone Temple to tremble violently.

The collision of the sword's radiance and the black vortex produced a sound so piercing it could rupture eardrums.

Even members of the observing Devil Elite Team below clutched their ears in agonizing pain.

Had it not been for the Divine Guardian's protective barrier serving as a buffer, they might have been rendered deaf for life.

This time, the black vortex couldn't consume the sword energy.

The two forces intertwined, locked in a fierce contest.

A faint smile crept up on John's lips.

As the saying goes, sheer force can break through all tricks.

Regardless of any mysterious technique, it can be forcibly shattered with raw power.

This sword energy was arguably the strongest singular offensive skill John could currently unleash.

It combined the inherent power of the Divine Palace, the energy within John, and the effects of the Unrivaled Strike Divine Skill.

Even a genuine deity, if struck by this move, would be grievously wounded.

How could an ORDER attack unleashed by mere equipment weapon possibly compare?

In the near distance, a flicker of fear passed through the eyes of the Soul-Devouring Devil, Ghana.

But he swiftly composed himself.

He had nearly drained all the dark divine power within himself, trying to sustain the existence of the black vortex.

Yet, as reality proved, all tactics became futile before an overwhelming gap in sheer power.

After a brief standoff, the black vortex inevitably began to shrink and dissipate.

Its once formidable devouring ability now rendered useless.

Eventually, both the blade of radiance and the black vortex vanished, completely dissipating into the air.

Surrounding elemental forces swiftly filled the void, smoothing over the absolute vacuum caused by the immense power.

Space trembled, and light banished the engulfing darkness.

The silver Libra cried out, its glow dimming, before falling back into Ghana's grasp.

John sneered, "Now, do you still wish to uphold your laughably ignorant claims?"

Ghana was plunged into profound silence.

Indeed, he was now in no position to spar verbally with John.

Having drawn so much dark divine power, the wounds he had previously suppressed began to retaliate, wreaking havoc within him, causing unbearable pain.

Seeing the black vortex completely vanish under John's assault, the spectators below breathed a collective sigh of relief.

It had been perilously close. Each of them had sensed the immense danger emanating from the vortex.

That terrifying ability to devour everything, sparing neither air nor light, chilled them to the bone.

If the black vortex had continued its relentless consumption, no one knew whether they would've become its next sustenance.

Whispers and murmurs inevitably broke out among the squad members below.

"What on earth was that thing? It even devoured light, that's horrifying!"

"That's the power of a Devil, I suppose. Seems our previous battles were just child's play in comparison."

"Thank goodness our captain is so formidable. Otherwise, I fear we might've met our end here today."

"Indeed, the fact that the captain single-handedly defeated the Desire Devil Mammon before wasn't just a fluke..."

"Isn't that obvious?"

"I wonder when I'll become as powerful as the captain..."

"With enough training, that day will come!"

"What class is Galewind, anyway? He claims to be an assassin, but since the fight began, I haven't seen him use any assassin skills."

"You can always ask the captain about it after the battle..."

"No way, you think I'm a fool?"

...

Seeing John gaining the upper hand in the battle, the team members' tones grew more relaxed.

Their injuries had largely healed after some time spent in meditation.

With the protection of the Divine Guardian's barrier, they wouldn't be harmed by the spillover energy from the battlefield.

They confidently settled into the roles of casual observers, watching the events unfold.
