Chapter182-Punishment from Hell
Meanwhile, in the Unknown Land.
The twisted rift in space finally began to slowly close, as though a giant beast was closing its mouth.
However, no one in the coalition camp felt any joy.
Because the entire Void Devourer army had already descended!
The moment of the final battle had arrived!
In the void, Zeth took one last deep look toward the Sacred Empire's direction, a sinister smile forming on his face.
He raised his twisted tendrils and let out a roar of attack.
"Warriors of my race! Crush them! Turn this world into the nourishment for our growth!!"
With the order given, the entire Void Devourer army erupted into deafening roars!
Terrifying auras mixed with pure malice surged toward the coalition's lines!
At that moment, the border zone was completely transformed into a forbidden death zone.
Countless powerful auras collided and slaughtered each other, causing the void itself to tremble violently!
Faced with the tide of enemies, the generals of the Sacred Empire and Dalton's strongest forces also let out desperate battle cries.
"For the glory of the Empire! Exterminate the heretics!"
"For our common home! Kill—!"
"May the Star God bless us..."
Boom!
A soaring will of determination solidified into reality, violently smashing through the oppressive starry sky!
War Sovereign Elizabeth led the charge, her sky-burning battle intent like a blazing sun, embodying what it meant to fight under the hot sun!
The terrifying holy light made the Void Devourer army anxious and restless.
She and her renowned Starborn Legion stood at the very front of the line, a solid shield against the oncoming tide of enemies!
Seeing the bravery of the Starborn Legion, the coalition's morale soared!
"Follow the General! Charge!"
"In the name of Dalton!"
Elarielle and the others roared, with the top combatants joining the fray!
With Dalton's core forces fully committed, the Void Devourer's overwhelming assault was temporarily halted!
Even the suffocating pressure was torn apart by the Starborn Legion's indomitable will!
However, this was only a brief calm before the storm.
The Void Devourers, capable of destroying countless worlds, were far stronger than they appeared!
Even though Zeth hadn't personally taken action, there were still numerous Supreme Sanctuary rank beings in the Void Devourer army, standing at the frontlines.
With an overwhelming advantage in numbers, they quickly stabilized their footing and began to push back.
Realizing the battle was turning against them, the hearts of the coalition forces sank once more.
At this rate, it would only be a matter of time before the defense line collapsed.
"Everyone! Hold the line!"
"For the Empress! For our families!"
The Rock Guardian's roar echoed across the battlefield, and his immense aura rallied those around him.
The coalition fought on with their usual desperate resistance.
Just then, Aragis's body began to stir with the dazzling power of extinction!
Visibly, the black energy around him began to take on a hue of absolute retribution—red!
As his lance pierced through more and more enemies, finally,
With a massive roar, Aragis's power underwent a transformation!
The hellfire of retribution for all things!
At that moment, pure extinction energy erupted from him like a storm!
"Holy Lance! Extinction!"
Sss—!
A massive lance made of pure hellfire materialized at the center of the battlefield.
The next moment, to everyone's horror, the lance, like a spear from hell, surged into the most concentrated area of the Void Devourers!
Where it passed, every Void Devourer was reduced to ash!
This strike carved a burning vacuum path through the dark tide!
"Lord Aragis!!"
"For glory!"
This scene greatly boosted the coalition's morale!
However, there was no joy on Aragis's face.
His sharp gaze suddenly shifted to another side of the battlefield, and his expression changed dramatically.
In an instant, he rapidly retreated!
Boom!
The space he had just been in was immediately annihilated by a dark force!
Aragis's face grew grim.
Before he could stabilize his form, a ghostly black shadow appeared before him, carrying with it a deadly coldness!
"Fall into eternal darkness!"
Bang!
The heavy sound of impact rang out!
Aragis was forced to retreat, and a tiny crack appeared on the black-red lance in his hand!
Before him stood a Void Devourer exuding the aura of a Peak Supreme Sanctuary rank being, looking at him with mocking eyes.
"Holy Knight? Is that impressive?"
The Devourer's voice was shrill.
"Let me tell you the truth, Holy Knight, War Sovereign, God of War... My race has hunted down all these willful holy beings!"
Faced with such provocation, Aragis didn't respond. He simply took a slow step forward.
Buzz—
Endless extinction energy began to converge from the void, as if responding to his call.
"You should not… reveal your evil in front of me."
The Devourer's pupils constricted, and it heard its comrades urgently warning.
"Retreat!"
When it looked back at Aragis, its eyes were filled with fear.
"You will regret this!"
It tried to disappear back into the darkness.
Aragis shook his head slightly.
"Under the scorching hellfire, no darkness can escape!"
With a roar that seemed to burn the soul,
The Devourer was forced out of its hiding state, its body engulfed in endless hellfire as it screamed in agony!
"Holy Knight Domain... You actually took that step?!"
Its fear reached a peak.
It was one of the strongest beings in the Void Devourer's Supreme Sanctuary rank.
But now, facing Aragis's attack, it couldn't even escape.
In this domain, completely dominated by hellfire, all its advantages were nullified!
At this moment, several other Supreme Sanctuary rank Devourers quickly arrived to provide support.
They were not mindless beasts; they understood tactical cooperation.
On the contrary, for the development of their race, they knew how to collaborate and coexist better than most intelligent species!
This was also one of the reasons the Void Devourers could consistently destroy powerful civilizations.
Compared to those civilizations torn apart by infighting and power struggles, they were far more united and capable of focusing their strength on the enemy!
"Aragis! Destroy it!"
"We'll block the reinforcements for you!"
The resolute voices of Reize and others reached Aragis's ears.
A faint, almost imperceptible smile appeared on Aragis's face.
He focused his gaze on the struggling Devourer before him, and his eyes filled with pure extinction.
"In the name of judgment... Extinguish!"
He slowly raised his lance, and the hellfire burning within his domain surged, wildly converging toward the lance in his hand!
A black-red domain, overwhelming the battlefield, fully revealed its surging form!
This was his Holy Knight domain!
He rarely used it, but only when his will reached the Holy Realm did he truly begin to tap into its power.
If not for this opponent who excelled in hiding, he might not have fully realized the immense power of his domain.
"Judgment Descends!"
With those words,
The lance, burning with overwhelming hellfire and extinction intent, shot forward like a meteor, surpassing the speed of vision and crashing into the Devourer!
Where the lance passed, the space was scorched, leaving a crack that could never heal!
"Lord Ruler… Avenge me!!"
"Ah—!!"
With a chilling scream,
The Supreme Sanctuary rank Devourer was completely reduced to nothingness in the hellfire!
