Chapter 264: Morningstar’s Last Shine IV
The Devil King did not take a break as he zapped through space at a speed that made light seem slow, arriving behind the man who had just tried to activate the Dictum of Reality and throwing a punch towards his head with a fist coated in the law of Annihilations essence.
However, the man dodged the fist and spun his body around, delivering a palm strike to Lucifer’s torso with his own law energy.
The force knocked the Devil King backwards, with the twin elves taking advantage of this to slash at Lucifer with destruction aura-clad rule breakers.
Red blood splattered across the space as Lucifer’s innate defensive barrier was ignored by the durability bypassing abilities of the rule breaker swords, causing the Devil King to grunt in pain as he turned around and grabbed the heads of the two elves, activating his authorities of flames and light.
**BOOMMM!!!!!
Laser-like beams of white flames slammed into the faces of the two elves at point-blank range, boring a large hole in their heads and going on to sever the arm of the human woman behind them.
The reality-using man tried to attack Lucifer once more, but the Devil King’s eight pairs of wings spread out wildly, with each of his wing tips releasing similar laser-like beams of white light that threatened to pierce his body.
After temporarily incapacitating the elves, Lucifer used temporal reversal on himself to return his body to the state it was before his injuries, before turning around to dash at the reality user.
The two began an exchange of blows, with their fists covered in deadly destructive law essences and backed by similarly dangerous authorities.
Just when the man dodged Lucifer’s punch to the face by titling his head to the side, the Devil King opened his fist and grabbed the side of the man’s head, before spinning around and slamming his whole body into the body of a flugel who tried to attack Lucifer from behind.
With the Flugel out of the way, Lucifer knocked the man to the side and twisted his body to dodge the rays of destructive light launched from his palms, before teleporting behind him and punching him in the back.
Just when he thought it was only a punch with Annihilation essence that he could tank with his absurd durability, Lucifer’s hand was suddenly covered by an incandescent glow of red light underneath the coat of annihilation essence that wrapped around his fist.
|...!|
The man realised something was wrong, but it was already too late.
***BZZZT...CRACK!
Lucifer’s fist smashed through all the hasty defences the being had put up, tearing the fabric of reality as it went on and crashed into the body of this being.
His soul trembled with fear in that short moment as all the aspects of his existence, were shredded and desegrated in a mere instant.
Lucifer’s hand seemingly enlarged to cover everything about this man, crushing down on all it enveloped as the Grand Supreme met his death right after.
His body, soul, and origin had turned to space dust right before the very eyes of all those present.
|this!.... It’s NULL!!!!!|
|BUT HOW??!!|
|we made sure to defend against this!!|
One Supreme screamed out with hints of fear in their voice, while others questioned why the measures that they had taken against Lucifer’s power seemed to be useless against it.
However, they did not turn tail and run, instead, they pulled out some of their strongest cards and called forth their most powerful abilities.
|Dictum of Abhorrence! |
|Edict of Anarchy! |
|Aspectual Authority of Space|
|Aspect of Destruction! |
What followed was something that could only be described as a light show, except that the rays of light being fired in almost every direction contained enough cosmic energy to snuff out the universe just by merely grazing them.
True voices containing screams of anguish, bellows of pain, and exclamations of anger rang out simultaneously from the mouths of these beings as they all attacked Lucifer without giving the Devil King even a nanosecond to rest.
Lucifer had also stopped playing around and had begun using some of the most powerful techniques in his arsenal.
Every attack released by each of these beings seared through the space, curved through time and rended parts of the fabric of reality itself, with various colours of blood splashing around and floating across the void.
Against the onslaught of the dozens of enemies, Lucifer suffered quite a bit of damage, even having one of his wings cut off.
He had no choice but to create clones of himself to battle against his opponents due to their great numerical advantage.
But being able to hold on for this long showed just how strong Lucifer was compared to the other Grand Supremes present.
Just when the Devil King was about to punch another being to death using his Annihilation, a thin barrier of light appeared in between his fist and the unfortunate woman’s face, blocking his fist and preventing it from moving forward.
The essence of the law of light, time and space wrapped around his arm in an attempt to stop it, actually succeeding as the arm of the Devil King was temporarily stopped from moving forward. (Not Stopped in time.)
|This?!|
|That power! It’s ’her’|
Exclamations of joy rang out as the Supremes noticed the power that had blocked Lucifer’s fist, identifying the new entrant of the battle and welcoming her with shouts of joy.
Lucifer noticed this and turned around, locking eyes with a fair-skinned, tall and slender golden-eyed woman, dressed in pristine white robes and with a look of indifference on her face.
Her lustrous hair floated in the empty space, as if being blown by the wind, with tinges of silver glowing at the tips of each strand.
Seeing her, Lucifer let out a disappointed sigh, before a red glow appeared in his eyes as he surrounded his fist with the law of entropy’s power and shattered the light barrier blocking it, as well as the restrictions of the two other laws on it.
He then turned around to the woman, ignoring his earlier target as he asked.
|So even you have come to stand against me, huh? |
|Apologies Lucifer, but you leave us no choice. |
