Chapter 290: Annihilation in One Move!
The Supreme slightly raised his hand.
He didn't bother to speak much with the other demigods. Even as a Supreme, he needed to maintain his dignity. To negotiate with over a dozen allied demigods, he would have to strike a deal to acquire the guild.
But on the contrary, while all their attention was on that third-class, he would strike decisively.
Killing all the demigods...
The third-class would be immensely grateful. Coupled with a few words of persuasion given his Supreme status and position, he could make the guild leader willingly hand over the guild, thus creating a fine narrative. How perfect!
Streams of energy surged around the Supreme, clearly indicating a platinum-level skill ready to be unleashed.
...
Below, Sterl also breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally...
You made your move.
His eyes glinted, and the bright purple enhancement of Arcane Law shone, with golden flames roaring around him. At the same time, a faint roar echoed beside him.
Various enhancements were maximized instantly.
Then, waves of water flowed, transforming into sickle-like flying blades that hovered in the air. These easily disintegrated the Curse Law Power and then scattered in all directions.
The flying blades surged with incredible speed. Though they seemed to move slowly, they easily tore through space, with all forms of energy around them rapidly dissolving, akin to sunlight melting snow.
The demigods present instantly shifted from their previously relaxed demeanor to one of alertness.
They all felt a tremendous threat from those flying blades. If they didn't take it seriously...
They would die! MVLeMpYr-the-story-platform
They were terrified!
How could it be possible... for a third-class to unleash such an attack? Or was there another master pulling strings from the shadows?
In a flash of thought, fragmented ideas raced through the demigods' minds.
Each of them exerted their utmost effort, releasing their Law Powers or platinum-level skills...
Desperately fighting for survival!
It was only at this moment that those below the level of demigods realized what was happening.
The third-class guild leader had been locked onto by a Law Power, then his body emitted a strange glow, and countless water-formed blades appeared around him, directly slicing through the Law Power.
Then those Flowing Water Blades counterattacked, forcing the other demigods to gather their moves.
???
Wasn't it said that the demigod backing Twilight had long fled? Or had he not fled but had been waiting in the shadows for the right moment to strike?
None of the people present, including members of the Twilight Guild, the demigod guild, or the spectators, believed that the Flowing Water Blades were Sterl's doing.
Only a Law of the same level could counteract another Law!
No matter how formidable a third-class's aura was, it merely indicated that—
He had activated a protective skill with a dazzling special effect to ensure his survival.
As for the situation on the battlefield...
"Heh, overestimating themselves!"
The players from the demigod guilds and the onlookers couldn't help but think of this phrase.
Because those Flowing Water formations were clearly triggered by a demigod, facing a dozen demigods was nothing but looking for...
Huh??
"Trash from the Twilight Guild..." A legendary player was about to mock when he suddenly felt something wet on his face.
"Aaah!" he screamed! The liquid on his face was the blood of the demigod who had unleashed the Curse Law, and it was highly corrosive!
Other legendary players nearby weren't necessarily that unlucky.
But they also felt a chill down their spines as they realized that they had splatters of blood on them as well.
Then, they looked forward and were shocked to discover—
The sky darkened for a brief second.
Then, like harvesting wheat, the Flowing Water Blades easily sliced through the various skills released by the demigods. Whether it was space-distorting ripples or platinum-level skills harnessing some extremely rare elemental energies...
All were utterly obliterated under the slicing of the Flowing Water Blades!
Not to mention the terrifying output of Sterl's top-level platinum skill, augmented by his massive enhancements.
Sterl even used his increased stamina limit to cast the first form of Silent Domain, which, while it couldn't prohibit Law Powers, could seal many of the demigods' enhancement effects, greatly reducing the power of their moves!
In such a scenario of rising and falling power.
The consummate Flowing Water Law-driven skills annihilated everything with ease.
It was like a splendid firework display suddenly extinguished by cold water gushing in from all directions.
Subsequently, countless Flowing Water Blades slaughtered the demigods in their post-skill-release rigid states!
Everyone was pierced through by the frenzied stabbing of the blades, followed by explosions; the blades composed of water and blood shredded all flesh and solid matter within the area into fragments.
From afar, it looked like points of light suddenly pierced into the demigods' bodies, and in the next second, they exploded like over-inflated balloons, bursting into a mist of blood.
In an instant, the demigods were wiped out.
In the next second, several beams of divine light appeared. About three or four demigods resurrected on the spot, clearly having triggered resurrection-type skills. However, some demigods, whose survival abilities didn't include "resurrection," had no chance to trigger such skills and perished on the spot.
And Sterl simply tossed a purple-gold token into the air, revealing a smile.
Just now, after a long search...
A rare Blade Law had actually been cultivated by a demigod.
Sterl decisively activated the Fate Token, seizing it. If his blood force hadn't already been completely depleted, he would have immediately spent points to evolve it into a Fragmented Blade Law.
However, according to the intelligence reports from Sosia and Sonis, Sterl knew that this particular demigod seemed to have never used any blade techniques after advancing to demigod.
Through the probability list obtained from the Fate Token, Sterl discovered that the demigod's legendary ability was [Ultimate Chaos Blade], a power strongly associated with Blade Law.
Sterl felt he had figured out the truth: this demigod initially aimed to advance using Blade Law, but the ability was too difficult to cultivate without any formal method. He had to continuously ponder sword and blade techniques on his own.
Eventually, this demigod had no choice but to abandon the Blade Law Power he had already cultivated and switch to an elemental Law, easily advancing due to his exceptional talent...
In summary, the Blade Law was not particularly powerful but was extremely challenging to cultivate.
Sterl couldn't help but smile slightly, feeling that his own fortune was indeed quite good...
Wait, fortune?
He paused for a moment, silently realizing that the Fortune within his body had entirely dissipated. However, this dissipation was cyclical.
Sterl would endure a period of bad luck before Fortune would restore itself.
In contrast, if a cheat ability devoured Fortune, it would be a permanent loss, never to be recovered.
Although Sterl seemed deep in thought, it was actually just a brief moment.
Those few demigods who had resurrected were utterly terrified. They couldn't comprehend what had just happened but had one thought in their minds—escape!
They needed to flee immediately.
Meanwhile, the other onlookers, whether from the Twilight Guild or elsewhere, were in a state of confusion.
Who am I? Where am I? Am I under an illusion? How did all those demigods die?
Right! It must be an illusion; it must be my imagination.
In a very short time...
People couldn't understand what was happening...
Instead...
High above, a severely injured demigod froze, then loudly praised.
"Master, your skills are indeed unparalleled. We didn't even sense your presence, yet you resolved all the enemies."
"As expected of a Supreme, you make us feel like mere mortals!"
"Such power! We were like frogs in a well before, but seeing you, we now know what true strength is."
...
The fragmented demigods spoke from the heart. Earlier, they had merely sensed the Supreme's intention to act, and in an instant, they understood his strategy: kill the demigods and bestow this favor upon the third-class guild.
However...
At this moment, these fragmented demigods were filled with profound reverence.
Is this the power of a Supreme? How terrifying!
They couldn't fathom how the Supreme had acted, how he had summoned those absurd Flowing Water Blades to slaughter the other demigods!
Each of the fragmented demigods trembled all over. If the Supreme had wanted to kill them, they would have had no power to resist.
Only the Supreme himself was somewhat bewildered...
I haven't even made a move yet; what are you all talking about?
Wait, how did all those demigods die? Who did this? What the hell!
The "Supreme" instantly felt a chill run down his spine.
First, he ruled out an incorrect assumption: those Flowing Water Blades couldn't possibly have been unleashed by the third-class guild leader, who was brimming with energy fluctuations.
That meant there was another hidden powerhouse capable of easily decimating perfected-level demigods!
Damn it!
Luckily, I didn't step in earlier. If he had ambushed me too, I might have been severely injured or even killed. How terrifying!!
However...
The Supreme couldn't help but smile.
The hidden powerhouse's biggest mistake was not realizing my presence.
Now that I'm prepared, you won't catch me off guard!
...
Below, Sterl was unaware that everyone had ruled out the wrong answer, convinced it couldn't have been him who acted.
Sterl merely watched the shadows of the fleeing demigods with a cold smile.
Do they really think they can escape?
Moon Law, activate!
Swoosh!
Although in battles above the demigod level, almost everyone guards against such powerful control Laws, rendering Sterl's Moon Law ineffective.
The fleeing demigods quickly pulled out tools to break free of control, but in that brief, delayed moment when they took out the tools...
A terrifying figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
It was the Supreme who had been sitting high above.
The aura of the Supreme instantly suppressed the demigods. Before they could react further, the Flowing Water Blades pierced their bodies, turning them into a mist of blood just like the earlier demigods.
Boom!
They exploded!
