Chapter265-Entering the Divine Realm
Once the sun rose, the entire situation would change dramatically.
When that moment arrived, all the Angels of Gold and Silver would be able to descend upon the land in full force, manifesting in their most dominant form to purify the continent.
And the ones marked for the first wave of purification were, of course, the lowly crawling creatures—especially the human race.
Yet at this very moment, some of the angels stationed as observers of the surface noticed something unusual.
"These creatures on the ground… they seem to have increased in number."
"Yes, it definitely wasn't like this before."
According to the Angels of Gold and Silver's observations, the myriad races of the world had originally inhabited only a very small fraction of the continent.
In fact, calling it a "drop in the ocean" would not have been an exaggeration.
The myriad races were pitifully few, and their strength was weak and fragile. When viewed in the context of the entire continent, living beings were scattered sparsely, barely even noticeable.
However, the current situation was clearly different.
There were far more creatures moving about the ground than before!
The angels soon noticed something truly alarming: areas of land that had previously been barren wastelands were now occupied by living beings.
"Wait, look over there! Isn't that the long-lost Fire Lotus Clan?"
"And over there—the Fishhead Tribe! That race was destroyed in our era. Why have they reappeared?"
The angels tasked with observing the land furrowed their brows in unison.
The world had undergone a drastic change, far beyond their original predictions.
Yet even as they took note of these anomalies, the Angels of Gold and Silver ultimately didn't place much importance on them.
After all, in their eyes, these were merely weak little insects. No matter how many of them there were, it didn't make any real difference.
To put it bluntly, for the low-tier races with level caps of merely 100, even the weakest novice angel could effortlessly annihilate their entire species.
Nevertheless, the observing angels maintained a certain degree of caution.
"Even if this doesn't seem too important, we still need to report it."
"Yes. Our plan cannot allow any errors."
"In that case, you should report to the Archangel immediately."
…
Soon after, the observation team reported the abnormal changes on the ground to their superiors.
They also mentioned witnessing the Primordial Core Weapon detonating against the golden barrier.
They had to admit, the sheer power of a god-tier standard attack was still terrifying.
Although the golden barrier withstood the Primordial Core Weapon, the sheer force of the blast had left the observing angels with lingering unease.
But once they confirmed that the barrier had successfully withstood the attack, their faces broke into smug smiles.
"I knew it! The protection granted to us by the great Aurelia, Goddess of Gold and Silver, could never be broken by any being."
When the residual shockwaves of the explosion dispersed, the angels resumed scanning the surroundings.
Yet they could no longer locate Daniel's presence.
"It seems he's finally given up."
"Yes, he must have retreated."
"I suppose he realized he's out of options. Under Aurelia's divine protection, any attack is meaningless."
"Our Angels of Gold and Silver are the invincible race!"
The angels were in their most self-satisfied moment when, the very next second, a blinding white light engulfed them!
Primordial Core Weapon X99!!
A chain of cataclysmic explosions tore through the Divine Realm's interior.
The Angels of Gold and Silver were struck dumb with shock.
Never in their wildest imagination did they expect a horrific assault like this to erupt inside the Divine Realm itself!
Elsewhere, Daniel's figure moved silently through the inner sanctum of the Divine Realm.
Around him, countless Spirits of Skills had already been summoned, flickering like spectral flames at his command.
The Divine Realm truly was a magnificent place—but its colors were far too monotonous.
Everything was gold and silver, a brilliance that radiated sanctity but gave Daniel nothing but discomfort.
Moreover, he quickly realized that the Primordial Core Weapon's power had been greatly reduced here.
This was, after all, the Angels of Gold and Silver's domain.
It was only natural that the Primordial Core Weapon would be suppressed.
Every race enjoyed a home-territory buff, and the angels were no exception.
As the echoes of the chained explosions faded, a four-winged angel appeared before Daniel.
The angel's body shimmered faintly with a halo of light.
Of course, this glow wasn't the blessing of Aurelia. It was merely a personal defensive shield.
"The Primordial Core Weapon truly is formidable," the angel remarked coldly.
"To think that you lowly crawling creatures were able to craft a weapon of this magnitude… I must admit, you have earned a sliver of pride."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than countless Angels of Gold and Silver surrounded Daniel in a tightening formation.
"Daniel, are you still so obstinately deluded?"
"Do you have any idea what kind of heinous sin you committed 4,000 years ago?"
Daniel swept his gaze across the encircling angels, his eyes gleaming with disdain.
"You feathered birds are always so fond of assigning guilt to others."
"Let me guess… this time, your descent to the mortal plane is to destroy us and take back the Revelation, isn't it?"
He looked directly at the archangel, his tone calm and steady.
In truth, Daniel had always wanted to know the real purpose behind this invasion.
After all, the grudge between the myriad races and Aurelia, Goddess of Gold and Silver, stemmed entirely from his actions.
What he could not discern was whether the enmity between himself and Aurelia was mere coincidence—or the inevitable pull of destiny.
If they were truly here just for vengeance, Daniel could admit that his actions had indeed provoked their wrath.
The Angels of Gold and Silver wanted to destroy the world because of him.
Yet even so, Daniel did not feel he had done anything wrong.
Obtaining the Revelation had always been to save the world from the coming cataclysm.
"You humans are not qualified to know the true purpose of our mission," the archangel replied coldly.
Daniel's eyes flickered with impatience.
"I will have an answer."
In that instant, a tremendous surge of mind power erupted from him.
Because of his mastery over the Mind Hunt skill, Daniel now had absolute control over his own mind power.
Even without actively invoking the skill, his spiritual pressure alone could affect all beings below the rank of gods.
The archangel froze, terrified by the overwhelming wave of psychic force.
In the pressure of Daniel's mind power, the archangel's senses distorted; in his eyes, Daniel had become a figure of absolute authority.
He could only tremble—and answer the question.
"To purify your kind is to pave the way for the coming of Our Lord."
"Our Lord will completely claim this world, remaking it into His perfect kingdom!!"
