Chapter 596 -532 The Dissipation of the Divine Power of the Gods!
The powers of the Gods dissipated…
In circumstances completely unknown to many mortals, this event occurred silently.
The night grew darker, and the dim light of the street lamps swayed in the fog, casting a mysterious shroud over the bustling city of Nasir.
Suddenly, an unprecedented phenomenon appeared in the sky—a legendary figure of the Heavenly Enlightenment Level with a burly shape and an ominous aura slowly descended.
He was clad in a specially constructed metallic war armor, his eyes like burning flames, revealing a will to destroy everything.
“Nasir, Fischer… your doom has arrived!”
This man was a mighty governor of the Lorne Colony and had, with the help of the Reforging Church in recent years, newly ascended to the level of Heavenly Enlightenment as a Lorne citizen.
He was also the current commander of the Lorne Empire, known as the “Source of Destruction.”
He had reached the high-level Monarch more than a hundred years ago, one of the top powerhouses among the handful of high-level Monarchs of the Lorne people, but the high-level Monarch was still far from the true Heavenly Enlightenment.
It would have been very difficult for the “Source of Destruction” to ascend to Heavenly Enlightenment given his qualifications; it might have been impossible before the end of his life, but in recent years, the Reforging Church and the Lorne citizens had fully cooperated.
Thus, he received a blessing!
The “Source of Destruction” had been branded by the God of Reforging, becoming a chosen one of the God of Reforging and had received the Divine Power of the God of Reforging!
With the power of “Reforging,” he completely reconstructed his soul and body, successfully breaking through the once unreachable “barrier” and reaching the legendary level of Heavenly Enlightenment!
That uniquely constructed liquid metal war armor was actually a sacred object bestowed by the God of Reforging. Although it could also be considered an alchemy item, its strength was not on the same level as ordinary alchemy items and was entirely capable of resisting attacks from the Heavenly Enlightenment Level.
“Those bunch of cowards, are they making me go first? Heh, are they all so fearful of Chris? I will use the Fischer family as a sacrifice to the perfect God of Reforging!”
Of course, the “Source of Destruction” also fully understood the reason why those at the Heavenly Enlightenment Level were watching from the outskirts of Siyate and not immediately storming in—it was indeed dangerous here.
However, danger and profit are, of course, mutual.

The Destruction Element controlled by the Fischer family was nothing more than the “Witch of Demise” and the “End-of-the-World Relic”… not nearly enough for a few at the Heavenly Enlightenment Level to share.
It would be best not to share; he wanted to take them all for himself!
“If you don’t want to go first, then all the Destruction Elements here are mine!”
The “Source of Destruction” now possessed powerful enough forces to overturn a nation, planning to use the city before him as a sacrifice to showcase his power and proclaim his arrival with an unparalleled disaster.
Compared to other Heavenly Enlightenments, the “Source of Destruction’s” power was simple: absolute destructive force, unmatched explosive power among the Lower Levels of Apocalypse.
Suddenly, a simulacrum of a black hole appeared in mid-air.
It wasn’t an actual black hole, but an energetic imitation. However, in mysticism, the “symbolic” meaning is the most significant, so it also possessed the properties inherent to a “black hole.”
Once this “black hole” landed on the ground, it would keep pulling and swallowing everything around it, potentially turning the entire city into nothingness in an instant!
However, just as he was about to unleash that all-destroying force, an unprecedented sensation suddenly struck him, causing him to involuntarily stop his actions.
“What!”
It was a mixture of fear, awe, and unease, as if an invisible and powerful force was watching over him, a force that surpassed all of the “Source of Destruction’s” cognition and imagination!
“Is it… the End?”
He tried to calm himself as he looked up into the sky, and despite seeing only endless darkness and sparse constellations, he felt as if he was being observed by a presence from a higher dimension, a being beyond the understanding of mortals.
It was a true Divine being scrutinizing him!
“Not good!”
A chill, the likes of which he had never felt before, surged in the “Source of Destruction’s” heart, a fear that penetrated deep into his bones, making him feel insignificant and helpless as his will to destroy began to waver.
In the end, he slowly retracted the destructive power he was about to unleash and quickly disappeared into the night.
And so, the city of Nasir existed quietly as if nothing had happened, still basked in the reflection of the streetlights, but for those Extraordinary Exponents who were fortunate to witness this scene, they knew that a super-powerful being from another world had, under the watch of a deity, abandoned his plan for destruction.
The High Priest Archer of the Fischer family muttered to himself in the Grand Hall.
“My Lord, please partake in the sacrifice.”
After sensing the gaze akin to that of a Divine being, the heart of the “Source of Destruction” was filled with an unprecedented panic; he realized that his prideful power was nothing but a futile struggle in the face of this higher-dimensional force.
The “Source of Destruction” tried to flee, desperately activating the war armor, hoping to escape the land under scrutiny before divine judgment arrived.
“What’s going on, there’s still such a strong sense of unease and fear… still staring at me?”
His actions seemed so slow and powerless in the presence of the Divine, and all of a sudden, it felt as if an invisible force firmly locked the “Source of Destruction” in place, unable to budge at all no matter how much he struggled.
“The Source of Destruction” was filled with unwillingness and fear, but none of that could change the fate that was about to unfold.
At that moment, the sky suddenly lit up with a thick black fog, a direct manifestation of the will of the Lord of the Lost!
“The Source of Destruction,” engulfed by the thick black fog, felt an unprecedented pain and chill, his war armor began to collapse, and his body gradually disintegrated under this force!
“Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!”
He tried to let out a final roar and struggle, but his voice was swallowed by the thick black fog, leaving not even an echo behind, his consciousness began to blur, his body felt as if it was being sliced by thousands of blades, and finally, it turned into nothingness.
The entire process was completed in the blink of an eye.
When the thick black fog dissipated, the skies above Cyart were once again calm, as if nothing had ever happened.
And at this very moment, the followers of the Dawn Church, who had been concerned about these developments, couldn’t help but boil with excitement!
That was a legendary warrior of the Heavenly Enlightenment Level, undoubtedly a being with the potential to overthrow a nation, who in the end had been reduced to nothing by the retribution of the Lord of the Lost.
His story would become another warning in the scriptures, reminding everyone that no matter how powerful one is, one should not presume to challenge the great existence beyond mortal understanding!
——
Meanwhile, on the Snow Mountain outside Cyart.
Four legends of the Heavenly Enlightenment Level gathered together, they were the Emperor of Lorne, the Child of the Sun God from Terell, the emerald elf Ancestor, and the leader of the Last Blood, the “Phoenix.”
They each possessed unique powers and ideas, and at this moment, united for their common interests and goals, they decided to launch an unprecedented war against the Siyate Dynasty.
The Emperor of Lorne and others sought the Destruction Element, while the Saint of Sun wished to banish the Destruction Element to other worlds.
However, as they vigorously prepared for the war, a shocking piece of news came like a bolt from the blue—the Pioneer among them, who considered himself the most destructively powerful, had been punished by an unknown and formidable force and had instantly turned into nothingness.
The four of the Heavenly Enlightenment Level knew of the news at the same time, deep in their hearts; they each had their methods of gathering intelligence.
This news swept through the entire anti-Fischer alliance like a cold current in an instant.
“This is definitely true…”
The Emperor of Lorne muttered to himself, looking calmly at the Child of the Sun God.
The Child of the Sun God shook his head gently, remaining silent.
Over the years, he had managed to establish a temporary Heavenly Enlightenment alliance, hoping to destroy Fischer at the first opportunity after the powers of the Gods had dissipated…
However, things were looking grim.
For a time, their resolute will to war began to waver, and the end of the Pioneer could not be denied as a warning to them.
They realized that the war would not be as simple as they imagined, the obstacle in front of them was not only Chris Fischer, but behind the Dawn Church lurked the Divine Power of the End!
“Let’s disperse for now.”
The Emperor of Lorne spoke calmly, indifferently suggesting, “Even if we stay here, there’s nothing to be done, it’s a trap meant to lure us to our deaths.”
Just as they were about to abandon their plan and quietly withdraw from this controversial place, a dazzling crack suddenly split the sky, as if the horizon had been sliced in two by a blade!
What poured out of this crack was not light but an atmosphere deeper and more oppressive than the night.
An unprecedented oppressive force erupted like a flash flood, enveloping the entire space in an instant, causing the figures of the Heavenly Enlightenment to halt, their expressions changing dramatically.
Then, a figure slowly stepped out of the crack, each step seeming to cross the boundaries of time and space, bearing an indescribable intent of death.
This was an existence even more formidable than “The Source of Destruction”!
“Death God” Chris’s eyes were as deep as the abyss, surrounded by an intangible, extremely cold Burier Breath, commanding respect and too intense to look at directly.
“I have perceived your thoughts.”
Chris’s voice, deep and forceful, echoed in every corner, devoid of emotion, yet it instilled awe in people.
“To attempt to strike down Fischer is to make an enemy of me.”
The Child of the Sun God suddenly revealed a smile, gazing into Chris’s eyes with some incomprehension, “You are indeed invincible hiding in there, but have you chosen to take offensive action?”
“Why suddenly so irrational?”
The Emperor of Lorne also narrowed his eyes, “Even you cannot possibly take on four adversaries.”
Chris looked at them calmly, saying unusually many words, “Reaching the Ninth Tier and not being able to take initiative.”
“What would it mean to climb even higher?”
