A Demon's Journey-Chapter 535 The Terrifying Power Of The Transcendent Saint
While the battle between the Archangels and the Human experts was going on, the situation in the Sinyalian Kingdom began to change.
King Valliadis had lost nearly all his blood as he set up the array to activate the Saint Stele. His muscles were losing strength rather quickly, but Shun brought many blood fruits for King Valliadis and spoke, "Please ingest these Blood Fruits. You can't collapse now due to the lack of enough blood!"
"I know!" King Valliadis responded while taking deep breaths. He slowly ingested those Blood Fruits one by one. It did not take him long to finish eating them all and recover all his lost blood.
Even though he was able to regain all of his lost blood, his mind was still weary. He had to focus intensely to avoid losing consciousness.
King Valliadis soon whispered, "The array is half-complete. I will need another day to complete it."
"…Another day, huh?" Shun whispered with a bitter expression. He knew that the battle between the Archangels and the Glerian Kingdom's experts had already begun.
In Tronte's group were his comrades as well. They informed him of the situation inside the Glerian Kingdom.
And recently, he heard of Tronte's battle against Azaroth. And it seemed that Tronte mentioned to them that Azaroth was the terrifying Demon God.
He also heard that even the Radiant God appeared in the Glerian Kingdom before he left soon enough.
This basically confirmed Shun's guess. This Azaroth was the Demon God he was hunting all this time!
When he heard that the Radiant God's True Body left just as quickly as it arrived, Shun could already guess what had occurred.
The Radiant God must have stepped into Frascoia Continent by preparing some arrays that would conceal his aura. And Azaroth must have used those arrays and threatened to destroy them.
With no other choice, the Radiant God's True Body could only leave. However, there was another possibility of the events that had occurred.
Perhaps Azaroth had some kind of weapon that acted as a deterrent against the Radiant God. Maybe he could ignite his life force to gain his peak power for a few seconds. But these couple of seconds were enough for him to slay the Radiant God.
The Radiant God didn't wish to take such a risk and left immediately.
Shun even questioned Saint Stele's effectiveness. What if Azaroth had a way to deal with it even if it was entirely activated?
That would certainly defeat everything that Shun was doing. It would make King Valliadis's sacrifice worthless. He couldn't have that. He had to take appropriate measures to ensure that the situation remained under his control!
While this was going on, the Radiant God's True Body returned to his palace in Heaven. He was utterly distraught and started destroying everything he saw.
He never expected to lose to Azaroth like that. Not when he had barged into the Glerian Kingdom with his true body!
Slaying Azaroth should have been a simple job for the Radiant God's True Body. He could do so with a turn of his hand. But Azaroth still managed to turn tables on him!
If the Radiant God killed Azaroth or hurt him even slightly, the Space Locking Array would have been disabled. And no matter how quick the Radiant God was in setting up another Space Locking Array, that terrifying warrior would still detect his aura!
And if that terrifying warrior detected the Radiant God's aura, not even the Primordial God could save him!
The Transcendent Saint of Frascoia Continent was considered the strongest warrior in the world. He managed to comprehend an entirely new law to its peak and spread it to the entire world!
He could launch terrifying invisible attacks that no one could detect except for the other 9 Star Warriors! 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ
This Transcendent Saint made his first appearance in the Ancient War and used his terrifying technique to kill nearly five Devil Gods and seven Celestial Gods simultaneously. The strange thing was that most of these God-Ranked Experts were quite far away from each other.
It should be impossible for someone to kill them simultaneously. But this Transcendent Saint had accomplished this seemingly impossible thing!
This resulted in the end of the Ancient War and the emergence of the Human Race as the supreme ruler of the Frascoia Continent.
And since the end of the Ancient War, any God-Ranked Expert from the other races who barged into Frascoia Continent was killed by an undetectable wave of energy!
This terrified Celestial Gods and the Devil Gods greatly. Even after countless years have passed, this one fact hasn't changed at all!
It angered the Radiant God that Azaroth used this method to force him to withdraw! It greatly hurt his pride!
Moreover, as his spirit recombined with Tronte's spirit, his heart was filled with hatred for Azaroth.
He sent an instruction to his Archangels, "Retreat to the camp in the Glerian Kingdom. The Angels have managed to defeat the human experts in the south of your position. Advance to that location immediately!"
The Archangels received this message through their Divine Weapons. Their weapons contained a tiny hint of the Radiant God's Spirit to assist the Radiant God in communicating with his subordinates.
In the meantime, Azaroth flew for quite some time until he was sure that no one was tracking him.
He noticed that the battle for today had ended. It could be considered the Glerian Kingdom's victory since they managed to force the Archangels to withdraw! It was an impressive feat!
The credit for this victory went to none other than the Saber Emperor! His sudden appearance had been a blessing for the Glerian Kingdom!
When Bryon returned, he made sure to generously reward the Saber Emperor. There was a great banquet which was attended by all the ministers and the various sect leaders of the Glerian Kingdom.
Even though these sects had some conflict of interest with the Royal Family, they didn't wish for the Lamhilhan Theocracy to swallow the Glerian Kingdom.
If that occurred, they would lose their current territories, power, and prestige! It was a wiser choice to join up with the Royal Family and think of a way to throw these invaders out of the Glerian Kingdom!
As all the experts gathered at the banquet, Bryon stood up while holding a whisky glass. He drank that whisky before speaking seriously and a bit emotionally, "I am the Ancestor of the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom. I know you all have your issues with the Royal Family. Perhaps it's how we have tried to keep everything under our control through some rather unethical means."
"But this is not the primary topic for today's gathering. As you all might be aware, the Glerian Kingdom is facing an unprecedented threat. You see…I have experienced remarkable things during my reign. I have destroyed invincible armies and conquered indomitable castles! But as I stand before you day, I wish to confess that this is the first time I have experienced such a grave situation."
"I never imagined that the entire Radiant Church would be after the Glerian Kingdom. And it seems to be the primary target of the Radiant God. Thus, in a sense, we are not fighting some annoying angels or Archangels. We are directly fighting against a great Celestial God!"
Those words shocked and distressed everyone at the banquet. It was noticeably clear that each one was terrified of going up against a Celestial God. Even the current king Tryfon Rellas! However, they kept their mouth shut and continued to listen to Bryon.
"However, what none of you know is that the Radiant God cannot intervene in this battle directly due to some specific reasons! Thus, we only have to handle the Archangels and the Angels of the Radiant Church."
"And fortunately, in the last battle, we gained a valuable ally. His title is familiar to all of you present in this room. Everyone, I welcome the Saber Emperor to this banquet!"
