Chapter 1761: Chapter 1304: Ascending to Heaven
"Even the Witch’s Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon is experiencing a catastrophe."
Vishi turned her head to the other side, and with a forceful pull, the Soul-locking God made the Gospel Divine Being let out a melodious moan: "I heard it... it’s the ’Instantaneous Thorn Spear’ of the God of Dead Thorns!"
Unlike other Secret Realms, the Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon is not particularly large, but the realm encompasses both sky and earth, and it almost has no physical form, making it appear hard to destroy at first glance.
Therefore, the Void Realm specially prepared a spear suspended high in the air for it.
It was entwined with blood-red thorns, taking only a few breaths to fully materialize, with the tip of the spear flickering with pitch-black lightning, which wasn’t lightning at all, but a phenomenon caused by space collapse and gravity distortion preventing light from escaping.
At this moment, the mages on the ground attempting to observe the Thorn Spear with long-range miracles had their eyeballs nearly burst, even the Holy Mages had their Holy Domains shattered. Only a few Legendary Mages barely managed to fend off the splashes caused by the Thorn Spear with defense miracles and their Holy Domains—even at such a great distance, merely gazing at the tip of the spear would cause excruciating harm to mortals!
Once the Thorn Spear falls, it is capable of destroying all things in the world!
"The Instantaneous Thorn Spear is a compound destructive wonder of spear, fate, and space, possessing unparalleled destructive power across time, capable of causing large-scale spatial annihilation in an instant," Vishi quickly explained the intelligence on this wonder: "The only solution is to counterattack with an attack!"
"Just what I wanted."
The blade unsheathed, the sword edge resonated, the Red-haired Swordswoman stepped into the Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon. At this time, the Instantaneous Thorn Spear descended, its trajectory unpredictable as shadows, its momentum moves like lightning, the entire space beneath its tip collapsing layer by layer, the world seemingly falling and crumbling, as if the heavens were overturning. Yet in the face of the spear of the collapsing heavens, the Red-haired Swordswoman’s battle intent pierced through heaven and earth.
She gripped the sword in her hand tightly, swinging out mountains and seas!
A sea of blood sword light to counter the spear of the collapsing sky!
"My turn for the Sky Garden," the always composed Vishi showed a hint of astonishment on her face: "Is this... the ’War Projection’ of the Time Master?"
Suddenly, around the Sky Garden, phantom mages began to appear one after another, aiming at the Sky Garden and starting to construct large wonders as units. Behind the phantoms, more phantoms continued to be generated, and in just a few seconds, the Sky Garden was surrounded by hundreds of Demigod Armies, poised to unleash overwhelming destructive wonders!
"The ’War Projection’ is a time series wonder that can summon historical projections to the present. The phantoms cannot be destroyed nor interrupted, they disappear after launching their wonders. The best way to deal with them is to counterattack and hold on until the war projection ends," Vishi said with a face filled with coldness: "You’re really unwilling to let me advance to Divine Lord, Void Realm!"
Just as a witch finds it hard to contend with the Instantaneous Thorn Spear, which bursts extremely high in an instant, she also finds it challenging to handle the lingering barrage of the ’War Projection’. Vishi’s Soul Faction pursues instant damage and control, historically not good at continuous direct confrontation.
"Let me handle this."
Diya descended above the small pavilion of the Sky Garden, the witch’s domain instantly unfolded, dragging the Sky Garden and phantoms into the fairy tale world. Beside her appeared the White Queen, the Black Butler, and the Red Death Cultist, with all the Wonder Technique Spirits inside the witch mobilized—she intended to single-handedly contend against hundreds of Demigod Armies!
"If it’s about competing in magic cannons, we have a tiny bit of confidence!" the four witch sisters said in unison, forming a quartet chant: "We are the storm!"
"I will preemptively alert you to the next wave of divine compositions," Vishi said calmly, while the Soul-locking God pulled the chain backward, causing the bound Gospel Divine Being to groan: "Listen carefully."
In order to better cope with the catastrophe, they also integrated their internal resources, the biggest change being Diya handing over the Gospel Divine Being to Vishi—only as a Prophetic Demigod, Vishi could fully utilize the performance of the Gospel Divine Being!
Vishi did not disappoint, taking only half a day to evolve the prophetic wonder "Recognize the Times" using the Soul-locking God and Gospel Divine Being as the core combination, allowing Vishi to listen to past intelligence of present objects. These catastrophes were wonders replicated from past Divine Lords in the Void Realm, and Vishi analyzing them with "Recognize the Times" was incredibly fitting.
The Silver Lamp, best at covering the world, to handle the Sorrowful Wind,
The highest bursting Swordswoman to crush the Instantaneous Thorn Spear,
The lone army Witch to face the War Projection,
The prophecy-skilled Vishi to provide intelligence support.
Through their concerted efforts, the three catastrophes of Sorrowful Wind, Instantaneous Thorn Spear, and War Projection quickly dissipated and dissolved, with the Heavenly Kingdom and Secret Realm almost unharmed!
Don’t think the Void Realm’s final counterattack is this weak. In fact, if they individually upheld the Heavenly Kingdom, the Swordswoman would have had no way to deal with Sorrowful Wind apart from giving up part of the Ancient Battlefield. The witch couldn’t possibly resist the Instantaneous Thorn Spear with all her might, and even if Vishi could hold her ground, the Sky Garden would surely be bombarded into shambles by the War Projection.
All the catastrophes were aimed at their weakest and least accustomed parts, fully demonstrating that the Void Realm was tailor-made to create exclusive catastrophes for them, intending to smash their weakest defenses with the strongest spears. Past Divine Lords could only clear this stage by perfecting themselves to have no weak points, preparing enough means to handle various situations, or by gritting their teeth and forcefully pushing through.
Sonia and the others didn’t have time to prepare, so they had to merge the three temples into one and jointly uphold the Heavenly Kingdom, enabling them to cooperate together to combat the catastrophe!
The mortals on the ground gazed from afar as they resolved the grand catastrophic force of the Void Realm, and an emotion mixed with fear and anticipation permeated the crowd. People stared dumbfoundedly, it’s unclear who led the action, or maybe it was due to common understanding, the mortals from the five nations all clasped their hands together in homage, looking like they wanted to absorb a bit of their fortune, or perhaps, as mortals, were acknowledging their divine status.
If there is room for discussion with Demigods, then a Divine Lord is an entirely separate higher existence from mortals. The God of all gods, king of kings, wielder of the destiny scepter, reigning supreme over all, the mortals revere as the Divine Lord!
The era of the Six Divine Lords lasted for 1668 years,
in the second half of 1668, losing one,
At the end of the year, one was promoted,
and now, the Seven Heavens are about to welcome three new Divine Lords!
Before the Heavenly Kingdom arrives at the center of the ’World Square,’ Sonia and the others coincidentally glanced at this earth. Sonia saw the entire city boiling in Dazzling Star Jiale City, Diya saw all people kneeling in the Kingdom of Gospel, Weiser saw a tender little grass sprouting in the Land of Senluo, while Vishi looked towards the World Film City of the Kingdom of Blood Moon.
In the next second, the earth returned to normal. The mages looked up, no longer seeing the world as a cubic reality; they only saw the starry night sky, with everything in the world settling down, as if everything just now was simply a dream.
This night was destined to be a sleepless night for many.
...
...
"Is this... Heaven?"
In the instant the world changed, Sonia and the four prepared for battle. But the scene in front of them still made them slightly lost in thought.
They, or rather countless people, had once imagined what the Seven Heavens looked like. Was it truly divided layer by layer, like a tall building? Or perhaps Heaven is actually a group of islands above the sea of clouds, with the largest island being one layer of Heaven? Or maybe Heaven is a continent, with cloud-formed rivers dividing Heaven into distinct regions...
But no one ever thought that Heaven would be an abyss.
Looking up, it was a dazzling sea of stars;
Looking down, it was a cube of the earth resembling foam;
Looking around, were six enormous curtains connecting the starry sea and the earth.
Their location was at the center of the abyss surrounded by curtains.
Directly ahead, the curtain displayed the scene of a vast universe, with a sky city moving along the star trail in it; to the left, the first curtain showed a land of flesh filled with corpses; the second curtain showed a temple built atop a snowy mountain; the first curtain to the right was a giant spider web, and the second curtain showed a giant world tree that looked about to wither, with no leaves.
Dazzling Star Heaven, the Heavenly Kingdom of Blood Moon, Immediate Heaven, the Heavenly Kingdom of All-knowing, Paradise Heaven!
Here was the Seven Heavens, the base of Divine Lords, the stronghold of the Heavenly Kingdom!
"Go!"
Sonia controlled the Heavenly Kingdom, leading everyone towards the back. The Divine Lords could attack at any time and eliminate them, these ’saplings,’ they must seize the Heavenly Kingdom before the Divine Lords attacked, and enhance their strength to the level of Divine Lords!
This was the most perilous part of their plan: they didn’t know how to seize the Heavenly Kingdom, not only facing the threat from the Divine Lords but also becoming trapped after entering Heaven, akin to voluntarily walking into a desperate situation, putting all hope on achieving a Miracle!
Yet, when Weiser pointed this out, no one objected, and the plan quickly went through and was executed, as if everyone believed they could achieve a Miracle... However, the fact they would all agree to this plan was itself a Miracle, so what’s strange about creating another Miracle?
Heaven consisted of six curtains, and the curtain at the back and barren gray with no scene, clearly the vacant Heavenly seat after Lord Senluo fell. Sonia, without hesitation, led everyone into the gray curtain!
"Vishi," Sonia said urgently, "Quickly analyze how to seize—"
Her voice came to a halt.
From the outside, it was visible that their Heavenly Kingdom was like a splash of dark ink on the curtain, its magnificent hues quickly spreading and coloring the previous gray. Within a few seconds, the curtain displayed the scenery of their Heavenly Kingdom, indistinguishable from the other five curtains.
Weiser noticed the three of them froze simultaneously and urgently asked, "What happened? Quickly figure out how to seize Heaven now!"
"Has this place gotten bigger?" Diya suddenly asked.
Everyone looked around, even though their Heavenly Kingdom was formed by merging three temples, altogether it was still barely big enough to accommodate a World Secret Domain. But now, placing the three Secret Realms within the Heavenly Kingdom didn’t feel crowded at all, the sky grew high, and the horizon far. It was as if in the blink of an eye, their small kingdom suddenly expanded into a large one.
What is going on? A new Divine Lord promotion welcome package, increasing Heavenly Kingdom’s space as soon as entering Heaven?
"This is the result of my deliberate suppression," Sonia said. "If I release it, this place can grow even larger, but I feel like the current scale of the Heavenly Kingdom is our limit of control."
She exchanged a glance with Diya and Vishi, and the three then turned to look at Weiser, Sonia’s lips trembled slightly, speaking with an uncertain tone:
"I... We seem to have already seized Heaven."
