Chapter 539: Chapter 524: The Sun Rises
BOOM!
A pillar of pure white light pierced through heaven and earth, erupting from the chest of PX-4 "Xiong Da."
This was the ultimate form of the "Dissociation Technique," violently catalyzed by Dawn Star Level energy. Wherever the beam passed, space let out an overwhelmed wail, and even the Laws were briefly repelled and distorted.
Time seemed to slow to an infinite crawl in this moment.
Pinned briefly by the [Soul Hook] chains, Sargeras’s soul and his massive body were delayed by the [Death Domain] for just a crucial fraction of a second. He could only watch helplessly as that beam of pure white light slammed into his indestructible Demon God body.
The material structure of Sargeras’s chest, right where the pillar of light struck, was being decomposed and erased from the most fundamental particle level. Muscles tougher than Divine Iron, veins flowing with magma-like blood, bones inscribed with the power of Evil Energy... Everything silently vanished into nothingness within that pure white radiance.
A colossal void over fifty meters in diameter pierced straight through his chest!
Through that gaping hole, one could even see the twisted sky behind him, dyed a ghastly green by Evil Energy.
Had they won?
"Heh... hehe..."
A low, hoarse laughter, seemingly emerging from the deepest depths of Hell, shattered the deathly silence of the battlefield. Sargeras looked down at the colossal void in his chest.
He smiled.
"A decent strike. It almost hurt me," he said. He raised his head, and those eyes, burning with Purgatory flames, looked at Allen as an equal opponent for the first time. "As a reward for successfully amusing me, I shall let you witness... true ’greatness’."
The moment his words fell, an endless torrent of ghastly green Evil Energy, so dense it became tangible, frantically spewed from the hole in Sargeras’s chest like an erupting volcano!
RUMBLE!
The earth beneath their feet trembled violently!
Sargeras’s three-hundred-meter-tall body collapsed like a melting candle. Yet, this was not death, but rather a reshaping on a higher dimension. His flesh and blood transformed into surging rivers of Evil Energy, and his bones became the silhouettes of mountain ranges propping up heaven and earth.
A colossal shadow that blotted out the sky rose from the plains of Cybertron!
Five hundred meters!
One thousand meters!
Five thousand meters!
Eight thousand meters!
It was a silhouette whose form defied description. Towering higher than the continent’s tallest mountain range, the "World’s Spine," its massive body pierced through the clouds, and Evil Energy dyed the entire sky green!
The Sargeras of this moment could no longer be called a "creature." He was the manifestation of the Law of [Evil Energy], the avatar of the Burning Legion’s will to destroy, and the world-ending calamity walking the earth!
A single hand alone could nearly cover the entirety of Cybertron. The shadow of that massive hand slowly pressed down from above the clouds, enveloping the land and blotting out the sky.
Before it, the eighty-six-meter-tall PX-4 was as insignificant as a pebble.
"Alert! Super-specification energy reaction detected! Energy level... incalculable!"
"Alert! Spatial structure is being forcibly distorted! All allied spatial movement capabilities have failed!"
Jarvis’s alarms rang out, each more frantic than the last.
Allen’s consciousness remained within PX-4. He looked up through the Steel Giant’s eyes and saw the descending shadow. Before the giant hand even touched the ground, the terrifying wind pressure had already flattened the surrounding hills.
He could feel every component making up PX-4 wailing and trembling under that unrivaled oppressive might. The Laws of [Decay] and [Evil Energy] intertwined with [Gravity], [Spatial Lock], and [Demon’s Gaze]... Over a dozen supernatural abilities merged to form an inescapable web of despair.
"So... this is your perfect form. As expected of a veteran Morning Star!" Allen let out a soft sigh.
Within PX-4, the three engines ran on overload, and the surface of the Radiant Black Steel Armor glowed with a blinding red light. The Steel Giant raised both arms toward the heavens, attempting to forcefully withstand this world-destroying strike.
The next second, that giant palm, heavier than a mountain range, crashed down!
THUD!!!!!!!!
An indescribable blast resounded as if the entire world had been shattered by this single strike. With the point of impact at the center, the earth instantly caved in and fractured. Bottomless canyons spread out like spiderwebs for hundreds of kilometers.
The once-indomitable Steel Giant, PX-4 "Xiong Da," was forcefully slammed three hundred meters deep into the earth by this palm!
PX-4’s Protective Force Field shattered, its arm armor cracked, and its robust mechanical skeleton was severely bent. The roar of its Dawn Star Level engines came to an abrupt halt. On the allied unit map, the bright dot representing PX-4 flickered violently before dimming out completely.
[Connection with PX-4 lost!]
["Thanatos" hit by Law impact, forced to exit the Shadow Realm! Unit damage rate at 12.3%!]
[Cybertron’s outer AT Protective Force Field overloaded and collapsed in the aftermath!]
Lines of battle reports symbolizing despair unfolded before Allen. The entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence.
Everyone in this Plane could see the world-ending Demon God towering between heaven and earth, feeling the terrifying pressure that was enough to suffocate even a Morning Star Wizard.
It was over.
This was the only thought in the minds of the surviving Grand Chairman of the True Silver Council and the Thunder Witch King.
However, on the bridge of the Ten Thousand Miles of Sunshine, Allen’s Puppet body slowly stood up from the Commander’s throne. In his deep blue eyes, there was not a trace of fear or despair, only frantically dancing streams of data.
"Dawn Star Level combat data collection complete. All parameters of the target specimen have exceeded expectations," his voice echoed through every corner of the bridge. "Jarvis."
[I am here, Commander.]
"I originally wanted to save some money, but it looks like that won’t work." Allen raised his hand, pointing at the incomparably arrogant Demon God outside the bridge, a fanatical smirk curling his lips. "Activate ’Zero.’ Let me see if this combustion of Magic Power, worth 10.7 billion Magic Stones, can offer our guest the grandest salute!"
[Command confirmed... "Zero" Antimatter Annihilation Main Cannon, energy matrix filled... 100%!]
[Final safety lock, disengaged!]
[Target locked... Purgatory Demon Monarch Sargeras!]
RUMBLE!
The Ten Thousand Miles of Sunshine, the massive black warship that had been quietly hovering on standby high in the sky, completely bared its fangs in this moment.
On the ship’s surface, countless Energy Circuits lit up with blinding radiance. The entire warship let out a teeth-grinding groan under the sheer weight of this colossal energy. At the bow, the ultimate main cannon with a sci-fi design slowly aimed at the giant ahead. Within the barrel, a blazing singularity that seemed capable of devouring everything continuously collapsed and spun. Its terrifying Magic Power fluctuations could be clearly felt in every corner of this Plane.
"Fire." Allen spoke the word softly.
The next second, the entire world lost its sound.
A light so pure it obliterated all colors erupted from the bow of the Ten Thousand Miles of Sunshine.
Bright.
An absolute, extreme brightness.
It was as if a sun were slowly rising high in the sky.
The surface temperature instantly spiked. The blinding light replaced the original sky, and all living creatures on the Ionia continent lost their sight in this moment.
That radiance instantly pierced through the clouds of Evil Energy and the atmospheric layers of the Plane. It even... forcibly pierced right through Ionia’s sturdy Plane Crystal Wall, leaving a dazzling trajectory in the boundless astral Sea of Magical Power!
