Chapter 484
by fanqienovelChapter 484: This is What Truly Divides Allegiances
“Ha ha ha ha!”
“Mortal! I concede!”
“You’ve indeed got some tricks up your sleeves.”
“But only a few tricks!”
“Behold what true foresight means! What unstoppable momentum means!”
“The Giant God wallows in delusion, daring to believe dust-like mortals could control and dominate deities.”
“Utterly laughable!”
“Witness the inevitable outcome!”
“The Outer Gods from the Ether, unable to endure this disgrace, have risen up in rebellion!”
The chaotic dragons appeared to speak "truth."
Outer Gods from the Ether surged menacingly behind the chaotic dragons. Their numbers swarmed as they encircled the Giant God’s two living saints!
Above them, tentacled "spindle-shaped Outer Gods" darted and weaved rapidly.
Three layers deep outside, three layers deep inside, and three more layers overhead!
At the innermost ring stood Malbasi’s subordinate officials—those "chaotic dragons."
Though one lay dead and another gravely wounded, four remained.
Despite the living saints’ avatar bodies rivaling core councilors in strength, and their Holy Light from the Sun granting immunity to chaotic magic, the Outer Gods’ bizarre spells still threatened them.
Moreover, no Divine Body could withstand these Outer Gods and chaotic dragons attacking en masse.
Back-to-back, the two living saints anchored their avatar bodies—
the Colossal Divine Bodies of a "Wrinkled-gill Shark" and an "Aqualong" pressed together, bloody maws gaping in opposite directions to bare colossal, razor-sharp teeth.
Their opponents, the chaotic dragons, prowled restlessly but dared not advance.
“Cunning Outer Gods!”
Though the chaotic dragons blustered and seemingly enjoyed Outer Gods’ "support,"
their positions and formation betrayed the Outer Gods’ stance: Fight if you will—but you strike first!
The Chaos Demon God’s selfish traits feared a life-or-death clash with the Giant God’s living saints, lest the Outer Gods seize victory afterward. Thus, he too held back.
So both sides stood deadlocked:
One relying on "numbers of gods," the other on "might of gods."
Neither dared make the first move.
Yet for deities, battle extends beyond physical blows!
When hands fail, voices rise!
“Buzz——Buzz——Buzz——!”
The chaotic dragons scattered and surrounded the two isolated living saints from four directions.
Enormous magic gathered inside their bodies, rising steadily to flood their abdomens and chests.
This signaled the prelude to spellcasting.
And it was a forbidden incantation of "Deity-Slaying Level, Beginner Stage"!
Though such magic wouldn’t even scratch deities of core councilor rank, it remained lethal to living saints who wielded avatar bodies as mere mortals.
Yet the Chaos Demon Gods deemed this insufficient!
“Outer Gods from the Ether!”
“Follow me!”
“Cast your magic upon these blasphemous usurpers—these lowly, dust-like mortals—and the great Malbasi will acknowledge you as comrades!”
“You shall gain supreme rewards! The entire divine domain will become yours!”
“But refuse to strike, and Malbasi will brand you evil gods of the Giant God faction, unleashing his harshest divine punishment!”
“Choose now!”
Offering both carrot and stick.
The “Outer Gods from the Ether,” previously idle spectators, now stirred into action.
“Gululu…”
“Jilili…”
They swayed heads and waved tentacles, each displaying unique powers.
Multicolored magical lights flared, illuminating the living saints’ despair.
Soon, they might drown beneath this overwhelming magic!
“Hmph!”
“Outer Gods from the Ether—truly a swarm of greedy, selfish insects.”
“Pathetically cheap!”
“Only Malbasi’s mighty name compels them to act.”
“No matter.”
“This ends shortly…”
The lead chaotic dragon gathered magic at its jaws, poised to unleash destruction.
Yet in that instant…
“Pshhh—!”
A magic-forged claw-blade pierced through the dragon’s spine and erupted from its chest!
“What!?”
The chaotic dragon whirled in disbelief, spotting the “large ear blades” flapping through the Ether Sea.
“Blood octopus Outer God…”
A blood octopus Outer God, without anyone noticing, had already circled to the back of the chaotic dragon. One of its tentacles condensed into a “claw blade.”
This was a powerful "Deity-Slaying Level magic," which, if it hit a vital spot, would leave no escape for deities weaker than a core councilor.
However, this powerful magic also had a flaw—it required a long preparation time and could only be released at close range.
Not very practical.
But the confidence of Malbasi’s subordinate officials gave the blood octopus Outer Gods an opportunity!
The backstab succeeded!
The sharp, magic-breaking weapon severed the chaotic dragon’s magic circuits, trapping the magic that was about to erupt inside its abdomen.
“You…”
“Trai…”
“Uh…”
The chaotic dragon wanted to say something more, but the raging magic tore at its Divine Body, preventing it from making a sound.
Before its Soul was completely shredded by the chaotic magic, it saw its two companions facing the same fate.
And the last companion…
“Buzz…”
The Outer Gods had turned their “muzzle,” directing almost all of their magic toward it!
“No—!”
“Ah—!”
Amidst the chaotic dragon’s screams, the blood octopus Outer God released the “claw blade” and quickly retreated.
Then…
“Boom—!”
“Bang—!”
Amid the intense magic explosions, the chaotic dragons pierced by the “claw blade” were torn apart by their own magic, exploding into several pieces.
Chunks of flesh and bone floated in the Ether Sea, staining it a bloody murk.
The only fellow not targeted by the blood octopus Outer God didn’t fare any better.
“Bang!”
“Boom—!”
Terrifying and powerful magic exploded on its back, head, and abdomen, lacerating its body.
“Roar—!”
It howled in despair, trying to escape.
But more magic enveloped its body.
“Boom—Boom—Boom—!”
Amid a dazzling array of explosions, the chaotic dragon was blasted apart like a torn rag, riddled with wounds, drifting downwards.
Its Double Eyes were lifeless.
It had completely lost its will.
But this was not the end of its misfortune!
“Ah—Woo—!”
Albert Drake lunged forward with her slender Divine Body, biting down on its neck.
“Crack—!”
With a fierce bite and a powerful shake, the headless Divine Body crashed heavily onto the Bottom of the Ether Sea.
However, not all chaotic dragons faced disaster.
“Whew… Whew…”
“Damn it!”
“What were these Outer Gods thinking?!”
The previously injured chaotic dragon, lying on the Bottom of the Ether Sea and playing dead, escaped catastrophe.
Taking advantage of the chaos from the magic explosions and the murk created by its companions’ bodies exploding, it escaped in the confusion.
“No way!”
“I must inform Lord Malbasi about this situation!”
“Only he can handle this!”
It swished its tail and quickly swam toward the Ether Sea.
“Ahead was the exit.”
“As long as I got out, I could…”
“Ah!?”
The dawn of hope was right in front of it.
Yet, a massive shadow completely enveloped it!
