Chapter 382: Chapter 340: Punching Vritra, I don’t need a weapon against you! (Seeking monthly passes!)
"Vritra!"
Indra murmured in a low voice.
He was very familiar with the demon that had just appeared!
Moon God Soma’s gaze was intense as he too stepped forward.
"In the past, this creature cloaked itself in darkness, became a drought demon, devoured all the water sources in the world, and defeated many Devas."
"It erected ninety-nine castles across the Three Realms."
"Then, after Indra was born and drank Soma voraciously, he managed to defeat Vritra!"
Moon God Soma’s eyes were fixed on the black mist in the starry sky, his expression betraying a trace of reminiscence for the past.
His voice gradually became more somber.
"This Vritra, has become even more ferocious!"
Soma said.
Boom!
The Vritra, like a massive black serpent, wound itself across the starry sky; that deep black mist was its body, devouring the power and brilliance of the stars, dragging them towards chaos and disorder.
Behind this Vritra,
hordes of Asuras filled the starry space as well.
Toraga stood at the forefront, seemingly waiting for the arrival of the Devas, ready to commence the final battle.
"Vritra has grown stronger!"
"It’s now devouring the power of the gleaming stars!"
Indra said, glancing at the greatly weakened Sun God Surya and speaking in a heavy tone.
Sun God Surya clenched his teeth.
He stretched out his arm, looking down at his palm, which was now dim and devoid of light: "This creature is actually devouring my heat and light!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Surya let out a cry.
In an instant, his form vanished from there.
"Not good!"
"Surya is about to be devoured!"
Indra exclaimed.
His eyes flashed, and he immediately noticed the Divine Horse Supratika running up to him.
"Vajra Body!"
"Lend me your white horse for a moment!"
Indra cried out loudly.
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, Indra mounted the white horse.
Riding the white horse and pulling the reins, the horse neighed, its front hoofs vacuous, then it charged forth, disappearing instantly into the Heavenly Realm, with Kashigyakya and other gods quickly following, heading for the ancient and boundless starry sky.
...
In the starry space,
vast black mists devoured all before them, and the Asuras, each wielding a weapon, were watching Vritra as they awaited the arrival of the Devas.
"Vritra has obtained the blood of Antaka!"
"After undergoing this sacrificial ritual, its power has grown even mightier!"
Sukhacara Sage said, gripping the Divine Scepter.
His expression was stern and his demeanor, grave, as he murmured to Toraga beside him.
"Mhm!"
Toraga nodded in satisfaction, with a cool smile.
"As long as we wait for Vritra to devour the stars, Kashigyakya will have no choice but to come!"
Toraga said coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the sun, emitting boundless heat and light that illuminated the Three Realms, suddenly flashed. It changed, transforming into Sun God Surya’s weakened form.
Surya’s intense gaze was filled with shock, anger, and fear as he looked at the black mist ahead.
He was the sun!
He could feel that the black mist of Vritra wanted to devour him, and it was about to do so imminently.
"Damned Vritra!"
Sun God Surya clutched his chest, looking at his dim and lightless self.
He gritted his teeth, suddenly bursting into a furious rage.
He could endure everything else, but this creature dared to extinguish his light and heat.
He tolerated the Asuras, endured the Rakshasas, but not this!
Surya forcibly gathered his Divine Power, the muscles in his great arms humming in unison, like a solar storm, endless flames of light burning around him, the intense glow shooting into the sky.
His hands grasped the Sun God Staff, thrusting it forward with all his might.
Boom!
A solar storm-like searing beam of light exploded forth in an instant, its flickering brilliance heading straight for Vritra.
The profound black mist remained eerily calm.
The dazzling light plunged into it, but it was like falling into a bottomless abyss, failing to stir the slightest ripple.
"!!!"
Surya was shocked in his heart.
The next moment, the obscure black mist, like ropes or deep tentacles, swiftly bound Surya.
"Surya, haha!"
"Is that all!"
Toraga stood amidst the starry sky, watching this scene with a cold sneer.
It was just a Surya, after all!
His eyes shifted slightly, scanning the starry space, waiting for the arrival of the Devas.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the starry sky, two stars suddenly twinkled brightly.
The Moon and Saturn shone brilliantly, their silver and yellow Divine Lights converging, forming two figures filled with the luminescence of stars.
Soma and Sani!
They too were Star Gods, and their arrival in the starry sky took but an instant.
Moon God Soma stepped forward, his brow furrowed as he intently gazed at Vritra before him, feeling startled within.
"It really is him!"
"To think he defeated Surya with such ease!"
Soma murmured.
Right now, Surya was tightly bound by the black mist, almost without any power to resist; if he went up, it would be suicide.
He dared not move forward.
On the other side, Sani’s expression remained calm.
"Mahadeva has already appointed me as the Saturn God, and next he will devour the stars, but I will stop him!"
Sani said solemnly.
"!!!"
"Even your father, Surya, was no match; we should wait and see!"
Soma looked hesitant.
He indeed knew that Sani was strong, strong enough to easily overpower Surya, even to the extent that he could easily subdue him.
But Vritra was something else entirely!
Hearing this, Saturn God Sani snorted coldly and glanced silently at Moon God Soma.
"I have toiled in arduous cultivation, mastering control over the five senses!"
"The me of today is no longer the child who was defeated by an Asura with a single move!"
Sani declared.
The next moment, his right hand stretched out like a Naga lurking forth, reaching into the void.
A black Divine Scepter instantly appeared in his hand.
Whoosh!
Sani’s eyes emitted a dazzling blue light, converging on the scepter above. The deep blue glow was immensely powerful, the aura of destruction swelling up, startling Moon God Soma for a moment.
