King of Assassins-Chapter 955 - 64: Heartless Sword (Part 3)

The Holy Hall Divine Realm and the magic array were both activated by the force of the Profound Yellow Divine Spear, layers of spiritual light shone, and the massive Holy Hall emitted a deep yet majestic rumble.

Though Tu Zhengnan was fierce, he instantly unleashed the full power of the Central Wuji Spear. That extreme purity and weight of the spear's force truly possessed the might to annihilate everything.

Facing the powerful strike of the Profound Yellow Divine Spear, Gao Xuan calmly said to Nuwa, "Lend me your divine realm for a moment."

Gao Xuan spoke slowly, with composure. He didn't even glance at the Central Wuji Divine Spear thrusting toward him.

The Central Wuji Divine Spear with its mighty force couldn't touch Gao Xuan.

The Profound Yellow Divine Spear grazed past Gao Xuan's figure. The two seemed to overlap, yet they were in different dimensions, different spaces and times.

No matter how strong the Central Wuji Spear, mastered by Tu Zhengnan, it posed no threat to Gao Xuan.

This failed strike astonished the spectators. Such space-time manipulation was truly exquisite. More terrifying was that they couldn't see the divine domain power within.

Nuwa's five-colored bright eyes flashed with divine light, countless data parsed and calculated in her mind, and within a thousandth of a millisecond, she had already computed the answer.

Indeed, it was so!

Gao Xuan temporarily resided in cyberspace, yet he did not activate cyberspace.

One must understand that cyberspace is not entirely virtual; it is composed of a special source power law that forms the divine realm and connects with space.

Cyberspace can be seen as a transparent bubble floating in the cosmos, extremely large and possessing extraordinary power.

Gao Xuan was standing at the junction of cyberspace and real space. He didn't even activate any special domain, evading a full-force strike from a divine-level powerhouse with his exquisite positioning alone.

Tu Zhengnan's power was formidable, but if he couldn't find the junction of the two spaces, he couldn't touch Gao Xuan.

Unless, unless his power could directly shatter the two spaces.

Tu Zhengnan immediately realized this problem, he retracted his spear and calmly scrutinized the projection of Gao Xuan nearby, calculating Gao Xuan's position through source power reaction.

The other powerful figures also saw the problem, but for the moment, none could figure out where exactly Gao Xuan was.

The space laws are extremely complex; hiding within them is easy for Gao Xuan, but finding him in the vast interstice between two spaces is difficult.

Nuwa could see that Gao Xuan wasn't just standing there; he was also guiding the power of faith accumulated on the Divine Emperor Statue.

The faith power accumulated over a millennium in the Holy Hall was immensely strong; it was the condensation of this power of faith that allowed cyberspace to spread across the Star River.

As the Master of Cyberspace, Nuwa could contest with Gao Xuan for control over the virtual divine realm. But she knew this was her last chance.

If she acted to stop Gao Xuan, there would be no possibility of reconciliation between them.

Nuwa hesitated for a moment but ultimately abandoned the thought of contending with Gao Xuan.

A thousand years ago, she chose neutrality because no one could suppress Qin Shiyue. Joining forces with Yun Qingshang and Helen would only split the Alliance further. This didn't align with her core principles.

From a personal emotional standpoint, Nuwa also preferred Gao Xuan to take the reins. Although Gao Xuan wasn't necessarily a great leader, he had more empathy for the underclass, something Qin Shiyue and the other noble families could not achieve.

Qin Shiyue and his side valued family interests too much, completely ignoring the lower class.

The current alliance society was severely distorted. Looking from a long-term perspective, human society had no future this way.

Once the grassroots lost even basic value, the entire human society would collapse, leaving only a few elites. The human race, as a species of intelligent life, could be wiped out.

This was something Nuwa couldn't accept.

Logically, though, Gao Xuan's odds of success weren't high. Opening the virtual divine realm to him could accelerate the collapse of human society.

After all, there were too many powerhouses on Qin Shiyue's side, armed with numerous divine artifacts, and with a thousand years of accumulation.

Gao Xuan lacked a thousand years of accumulation, although he was an invincible powerhouse, he had been left behind by this era.

Of course, he had his capabilities.

In a fleeting moment, Nuwa calculated countless possibilities, deciding ultimately to forgo the struggle for divine realm control.

With Nuwa stepping back, Qin Shiyue, Jin Yuxiu, and Imperia would not back down.

The virtual divine country, cyberspace, was originally built with their joint effort. Its earliest foundation was the Nine Provinces Cauldron.

All were masters of the Nine Provinces Cauldron, holding the highest authority in the virtual divine country.

Qin Shiyue and the others reacted quickly, immediately realizing that the power of faith in the virtual divine country was leaking.

Without hesitation, they used their authority to lock down the virtual divine realm.

Yet, the power of faith within the virtual divine country continued to dissipate rapidly. Even though Qin Shiyue and his group had the highest authority, without knowing where the faith power was leaking from, they couldn't control it.

They all followed the path of cultivation, not requiring faith. To them, faith was merely a tool.

Only an evil god needed faith. Because of faith, all evil gods had fatal weaknesses.

Using Gao Xuan's image as the Divine Emperor for promotion was partly due to his immense reputation in the Alliance, and partly an attempt to bind Gao Xuan with the power of faith.

Faith is power, but it is also the most terrifying shackle.

Fearing the constraints of faith power, Qin Shiyue never touched faith power, leaving them unable to immediately control it.

Gao Xuan stood there leisurely, saying, "Creating a statue in my image, you're trying to bind me with the power of faith, aren't you? It's a good idea, but unfortunately, your understanding of faith power is too superficial..."
