"I only asked you to hold him off, not fight to the death. You engage him for a bit; this guy's will isn't unified. Isn't that something quite doable?"
"We've disappointed you!"
Seeing Noah intervene and no longer just observe, heavily injured, even his wings broken in half, irreparable, Iliad looked ashamed, while Terramus remained silent, hidden in the Void, with endless killing intent, heading towards the other battlefields.
He indeed wasn't a match for the Abyss Monarch, but he couldn't defeat the highest ranking existence in the Abyss Sequence. However, couldn't he still slay other Abyss Lords? This Death God, frustrated in his confrontation with the Abyss King, chose to vent his wrath on the Demon Lords scattered across other battlefields.
When a Dragon Clan Death God wields a Divine Artifact for an assassination, how many can withstand such an assault? Not to mention those of the same rank, even higher ranks and beings with Strong Divine Power need to be cautious.
Originally, as the Dragon Clan Death God, Iliad shouldn't have been so helpless against a Demon Monarch. But the problem was, this is the Abyss. As a Divine, his presence here meant he lost home-field advantage, and was instead rejected by the environment and met with hostility from the Abyss, hence his predicament.
"Noah!"
Faced with the entanglement of three Divines, the upper hand belonged to the Demon Monarch. However, upon seeing Noah enter the field and stand in front of his offspring, this Demon King, who had been silent and merely indulged in the battle, finally spoke,
"Take your legion and get out of the Abyss. This is not a place you should tread, nor is there anything here you need!"
"Oh, so you do have a brain?"
Seeing the Abyss Monarch speak, wanting him to retreat, Noah let out a soft "oh" and then lowered his gaze, examining him closely for several days.
He thought this Demon Monarch had completely lost himself, this powerful body manipulated by over a dozen divergent wills. Yet, unexpectedly, there was indeed a will within.
"Tsk tsk, how interesting!"
"Get out of the Abyss!"
Whether it was the Demon Monarch's own will or the Abyss Will borrowing his body to shout the threat, in any case, Noah could feel the Abyss's utter loathing, or rather, cautious apprehension of his existence.
Noah could understand this sentiment of loathing, because the birth and form of the Abyss were too unique, it couldn't possibly disappear, but it's not to say it can't be wiped out.
Yet if one day the Abyss were to be completely eradicated, the one capable of accomplishing this would certainly not be a Divine.
Even beings with Strong Divine Power, leaving the Divine Country and entering the Abyss, would find it difficult to unleash Medium Divine Power with their divine power. In the suppressive environment of the Abyss, the status of a Divine would perpetually decline, which might eventually lead to their fall.
However, Epics are different from Divines. Regardless of the location, Epics maintain their full state, creating a realm of their own. No matter how the external environment changes, their state won't degrade.
Yet here's the issue, the Abyss lacks the Source Power needed by Epics. If there were Source Power, how could the world's remnants constituting the Abyss have fallen? With the slightest possibility, no world would allow itself to fall to such a state.
"Once I obtain everything I want, I will leave the Abyss, not under the expulsion of a synthetic creature like you. Now, you better regurgitate all you've consumed for me!"
Above the Floating City piloted by the Dragon-men, blessing them with endless battle lust and the will to fight, the Sun abruptly erupted in boundless Light, with Suns appearing as overlapping images around the true Sun.
At that moment, these original illusory Suns were revealed in a flash, even if demons found it hard to endure the light and flames that descended from the heavens.
"Ah~"
A demon succubus general, forced to join the charge, let out a scream, as flames engulfed her, setting ablaze her delicate, smooth skin relative to other demons, exposing the reddened flesh and muscles beneath.
"No~ Sun!"
The screams of utter despair and agony echoed across the wilderness, for it was not only this succubus general set ablaze. Everything within sight, the sky, the ground, every moving demon was set aflame.
The innate Flame Resistance of demons was nothing but a joke before these flames, for these were flames descended from the Sun.
Many demons were seeing a Sun for the first time since their creation, but unfortunately, this was also their last. Of course, there was a silver lining; this time, the number of Suns was so vast that even few Divines have witnessed seventeen Suns appearing simultaneously in one sky.
"Father!"
Seeing the seventeen Suns illuminating the Abyss sky, Iliad couldn't help but tremble as he obediently retreated aside.
Because he knew, it was his father's true body descending, albeit just a part of it.
Even so, with these Suns appearing in the Abyss, even demons resistant to extreme heat were penetrated, turning to ashes under the high temperatures and scorching Sun—a quite ironic death for a demon.
Under the gaze of the Holy Dragon Descendant and his Favored, the multitude of Suns above the Abyss ignited a massive solar storm, intertwining flames, linking together.
Consequently, a gigantic Dragon King, crossing multiple Abyss layers, manifested within the Abyss. Such a massive body left even the invading Hell Legion astounded, the eyes of one devil monarch after another widening, with nearly every Devil Monarch displaying reverence in their eyes.
"Hiss~ Is this Noah's true body? How is it so enormous?"
On the shoulder of the rampaging Titan Lord, a female mage, her posture alluring, with a presence and soul yet again transformed, marveled at the Dragon King, pressuring billions of demons across numerous planes.
"Those are Suns from the Material World. Noah absorbed these Suns, integrating all their power into one, naturally forming such a formidable force."
Casius whispered an explanation. With the power Noah now possessed, even he found it difficult to fathom, as it was no longer confined to one plane.
"The Sun? So doing this..."
"Many worlds will fall into darkness. So he won't maintain this state for long unless he decides to bring about an apocalypse."
As his foster father said, Noah summoned bodies from the Suns across major worlds, though not all, but resulted in over ten realms plunged into complete darkness, including the Space-Time Realm. Although Noah left three Suns behind, compared to its vastness, it was a drop in the bucket.
Hence, Noah wouldn't sustain such a state for long. He must transform back into a Sun, assuming the duties he's meant to shoulder. Of course, he could choose to abandon it all, leaving irresponsibly, but at the cost of destroying ten worlds, effectively an apocalypse.
With the risk of a catastrophic downfall tied to such a decision, Noah has now reached the pinnacle of strength, surpassing any previous moment, viewing even the Abyss Monarch as insignificant, almost trivial.
The truth confirmed Noah's senses. When a Dragon King, wielding the Power of the Suns from ten worlds, exerted all his might into a strike, there was nothing capable of stopping it.
Word Spirit·Candle Day
The Abyss was illuminated in an instant, with countless Abyss layers feeling the Sun's radiance. For demons, these rays were undoubtedly the Heavenly Punishment Sword, judgment and divine wrath descended from the Supreme Heavenly God.
