Chapter 1902 A War of Attrition. II
The three rulers were left initially taken back by Felix's uncanny speed at breaking their seal, but they regained control over their emotions instantly.
'It must be the doing of his celestial heart.' Ymir uttered calmly, 'It should have the power to tap into the fabric of reality as we have assumed.' Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
'Stone of Reality, its powers sure are marvelous.' Medusa narrowed her eyes, 'We have to be careful. If he can break the seal with its assistance, I am certain it can affect us too.'
The three rulers might not have full knowledge about the Stone of Reality's powers, but they were capable of deducting quite a lot just from what happened in the Echoing Tower.
The Stone of Reality's powers were always mystical, bizarre, and reality-based, with an equal fearsome authority.
This was more than enough for the three rulers to expect the unexpected.
'As much as its abilities may seem formidable, its energy consumption must be equally significant.' Amun-Ra said while gazing at Felix with an unfazed expression.
He was a ruler...Nothing in this universe could scare or make him feel nervous.
Thus, he pointed his scepter back at Felix and taunted coldly, "Let's see if you can walk the talk."
Before Felix could respond, Amun-Ra's eyes were set ablaze with golden flames as he swung his scepter below him in one swift motion!
"Face the judgment of the Gods!"
The clouds above parted, revealing a beam of light so bright it seemed to pierce through the heavens themselves!
The divine beam descended with unstoppable force, a column of raw divine energy that blazed through the sky, aiming directly at Felix!
But Felix didn't flinch.
As the beam hurtled toward him, Felix swung his blade in a single, fluid movement, slicing through the center of the divine beam with perfect accuracy.
The beam split cleanly, each half veering off to the sides.
Amun-Ra's expression tightened, but before he could react, Felix reached out with his free hand, and with a quick swipe, he tore open the fabric of logic.
Simultaneously, The golden light of Amun-Ra's sliced beam began to shift, darkening before everyone's stunned eyes.
In less than a fraction of a nanosecond, the searing light of judgment transformed into a mass of celestial black energy, still heading in Felix's direction!
Felix merely raised his arms and pointed his marked palms in their direction. Just like being welcomed home, the two masses of celestial energy were absorbed cleanly.
Then, he looked up at Amun-Ra with a cold smile playing on his lips.
"You thought you could judge me with this? Let me show you what real power feels like."
Before Amun-Ra could react, Felix unleashed a ten times more potent black beam of celestial energy in his direction, returning the favor!
The dark beam shot forward, it roared through the air with a much greater intensity than before, the darkness within it hungry to consume everything in its path!
"How irritating." Amun-Ra clicked his tongue as he faced his ankh before the great flood of darkness.
Instead of blocking it, a spatial golden portal manifested and devoured it entirely!
Felix knitted his eyebrows a little at the realization that the spatial portal was leading to the universe's heart!
'As expected of those old geezers, they know you can break apart their divine abilities and transform the celestial energy.' Asna cursed under her breath.
'They quickly figured out a way to counter at least our ranged attacks.'
Felix nodded with a cold expression as he felt his beam of black fires instantly disappear into pure celestial energy the moment it entered the universe's heart territory.
'This isn't even the worst part.' Eris thought to herself after reaching the same realization, 'The three rulers have a monopoly of the celestial energy around the universe's heart.'
In simpler terms, the three rulers were gaining back the lost celestial energy, which would allow them to prolong this war of attrition to unknown grounds!
'If my brother was the only one with the powers to deconstruct and retrieve celestial energy, this battle would eventually turn in his favor.' Apollo frowned, 'But now...He has to either change his approach or find a way to stop the three rulers from reaching the universe's heart.'
The tenants heard their conversation, but they had no idea what they were talking about since the entire exchange between Felix and Amun-Ra lasted less than a fraction of a nanosecond.
Alas, before they could even partake in this situation, the battle had already moved forward as Felix swiftly started swinging his sword aggressively while blinking in Amun-Ra's direction!
Each swing was accompanied by the roar of celestial black flames, forcing Amun-Ra to retaliate by opening more spatial rifts, consuming those flames at once!
But, Felix couldn't care less.
He instantly blinked beside Amun-Ra and threw a flurry of flaming round kicks while simultaneously swinging his sword somehow.
In the eyes of mortals, such a move was impossible, but for celestials with 100% control over their bodies and souls? Felix could go even further!
Amun-Ra blocked the kicks with his knee and the sword cuts with his scepter, but his expression remained irritated.
'Little bastard, each of his attacks is fueled with the deconstruction effect.' He could feel that his external and internal divine energy were gradually absorbed.
This time, he could not avoid the absorption with spatial portals as it was nearly impossible to take Felix anywhere while being protected by his own celestial black flames.
'Amun, we share the same pool of celestial energy, don't lose us unnecessary resources.' Ymir warned sternly as he watched the intense and rapid confrontation between his peer and Felix.
The shockwaves alone were powerful enough; they had already cleared millions of kilometers of the cloud sea.
'What do you think I am trying to do.' Amun-Ra cursed while blocking two flaming fists, 'The vermin's strength is equal to mine, he can't penetrate my defenses, but at the same time, I can't escape from his assault.'
All celestials' physical strength is at two hundred million BF, which meant the three rulers' advantages weren't as much compared to Felix and Asna.
In fact, Felix could be uttered to have a slight advantage since his fires were capable of deconstructing their divine powers.
Thus, unless Amun-Ra decided to make some changes, Felix would keep getting stronger while he would be under the opposite curse.
Meanwhile, Medusa wasn't having it any better.
She was using her divine weapon as well, which was a green whip that resembled a snake, but to no avail.
Asna's attacks were simply too overbearing.
"Rain of Absolution!"
Medusa waved her divine whip in a circular motion, causing the heavens above to have a similar divine circle.
From the circle, torrents of divine elemental abilities rained akin to meteors, threatening to consume Asna fully!
Athena and the rest watched with held breath, knowing that it was near impossible for them to emerge unscathed from such an intense assault!
But Asna stood firm.
"Useless party tricks." She scoffed.
As the first wave of Medusa's divine creations descended upon her, she raised her blades and released a surge of destructive energy.
Then, with a single fluid movement, she slashed through the oncoming storm of divine abilities, each strike of her blades erasing them from existence as if they had never been!
Destruction alone might not be enough, but when celestial energy was added to the process, divine destruction came to birth!
Before divine destruction, the rest of the divine abilities could only bow down under its overwhelming authority!
