Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill

Chapter 735: 735:Half Acension Realm

BANG!

A small but catastrophic sound erupted from the impact, making everyone halt at once. The ground beneath the two figures sank slightly while a violent pressure spread through the surroundings. Emperor Ezekiel’s eyes shook as he stared ahead in disbelief. His enormous greatsword, which had descended with enough force to split apart the ground, had suddenly stopped in midair.

The blood-red figure had caught the blade with one hand.

His fingers were wrapped firmly around the sharp edge while blood-red energy flowed across his palm. There was no wound and his arm had not moved even slightly. He simply stood there while holding back Emperor Ezekiel’s full-strength strike as though it was nothing.

Emperor Ezekiel’s expression changed. His arms tightened around the handle of his greatsword as he tried to force the blade down, but it refused to move even an inch. His lips slowly opened in frustration as recognition flashed through his eyes.

”Alaster, you...”

BANG!

Before he could finish, a heavy force struck Emperor Ezekiel directly in the chest.

His body shot backward like a cannonball and tore through the air at terrifying speed. The sudden attack happened so quickly that several Transcendent Knights could barely follow it with their eyes. Ezekiel flew hundreds of meters before his aura exploded from his body. He twisted himself in the air and managed to stop abruptly, but the force still made the space around him tremble.

He remained floating in midair while staring at Alaster with a completely different expression.

The arrogance and impatience in his eyes had disappeared.

”Half-step Ascension Realm!”

He spoke slowly, but the words resounded clearly in everyone’s ears and made the entire group pause.

The expressions of the four Emperors immediately hardened.

Several Transcendent Knights instinctively tightened their grip around their weapons while Ethan narrowed his eyes. Even Queen Ophelia’s calm face became serious as she carefully sensed the blood-red energy surrounding Alaster.

Hearing those words, a hateful and monstrous expression slowly appeared on Alaster’s blood-drenched face.

”Half-step Ascension Realm!”

He repeated those words while gritting his teeth in hatred.

His fingers slowly curled into fists.

The calm blood-red aura surrounding his body suddenly changed.

BOOM!

A heavy wave of bloody energy erupted from him and swept across the ruined land. Dust and broken stones were thrown into the air while the remaining rocks around him cracked apart. His long blood-soaked hair flew wildly behind him as the bloody aura continued growing stronger.

”If not for you all...”

Alaster paused and slowly looked around at everyone.

His blood-red eyes moved from Emperor Ezekiel to Emperor Aldric, Emperor Caelus, Queen Ophelia, and finally toward the other experts standing around them.

His face twisted further with rage.

”If not for you all, I would have reached Ascension Realm.”

The moment those words left his mouth, the ground beneath his feet exploded.

BOOM!

Alaster’s figure shot upward.

Within seconds, he rose high into the sky until his blood-red figure appeared directly before the bright sun. His body blocked part of the sunlight and cast a long shadow across the ruined battlefield below. The bloody energy around him continued spreading until the sky itself seemed to take on a faint red shade.

Everyone below immediately raised their heads.

”It’s your fault...”

Alaster’s voice came from high above.

His body trembled with anger while the blood-red aura around him violently surged.

”All yours.”

He roared and extended one hand toward the people below.

Blood-red energy instantly rushed toward his open palm.

The surrounding air began trembling as the energy compressed rapidly. A bright red sphere formed in his hand before becoming more and more unstable. The pressure coming from it made several injured Transcendent Knights take a step backward.

Queen Ophelia’s eyes widened the moment she saw where his palm was pointing.

”Dodge!”

SWISH!

A strong burst of energy exploded from Alaster’s palm.

The blood-red attack tore through the air and shot straight toward everyone below. The space around the beam distorted under its power while a violent pressure descended over the entire area.

”Move!”

The Emperors and Transcendent Knights immediately scattered in different directions.

Queen Ophelia also moved back while raising her staff and forming several layers of magical protection around the slower and injured knights.

BOOOOOOM!

The blood-red energy struck the ground.

The earth instantly collapsed.

A massive explosion erupted from the point of impact as broken rocks, dust, and blood-red energy blasted high into the air. The violent shockwave swept across the barren land and forced several experts farther backward while cracks spread rapidly through the already ruined ground.

The blood-red explosion had barely settled when Alaster raised his hand once again.

SWISH!

Another beam of bloody energy shot down from the sky.

”Move!”

Everyone immediately scattered as the attack struck the ground and blasted apart another huge section of the ruined land. Before they could even regain their balance, Alaster moved both hands. Several spheres of blood-red energy formed around him and shot toward the group one after another.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Explosions spread across the barren battlefield as the Emperors and Transcendent Knights moved in different directions.

Emperor Aldric narrowly avoided one beam before another swept toward his side. He raised his sword and blocked it, but the force still pushed him dozens of meters backward.

Queen Ophelia waved her staff and created several barriers to protect the injured knights while Emperor Caelus cut apart another blood-red attack with his weapon. Ethan moved quickly between the explosions as beams struck everywhere around him and left deep burning holes across the ground.

”Attack him together!”

Emperor Ezekiel roared.

Everyone immediately responded.

The four Emperors shot toward Alaster from different directions while the Transcendent Knights followed behind them. Queen Ophelia raised her staff and dozens of magic circles appeared around her. The court mages also gathered their mana and aimed their spells toward the sky.

SWISH!

Several sword arcs flew toward Alaster at the same time.

Countless magical attacks followed closely behind them.

The sky immediately became filled with sword light, flames, lightning, ice, and waves of pure aura. The combined attacks covered almost every direction around Alaster and left him little space to escape.

Alaster did not move.His blood-red eyes calmly watched the incoming attacks.

Just as the first sword arc reached him, he raised one hand.

BANG!

The sword arc shattered.

He turned slightly and struck another attack with the back of his hand.

BOOM!

The powerful spell exploded before it could touch him.

Another Transcendent Knight rushed toward Alaster from behind and thrust his spear straight at his back, but Alaster turned around at the last moment and caught the spear with his bare hand.

The knight’s eyes widened.

Alaster pulled him forward and struck him across the chest with his other palm.

BANG!

The Transcendent Knight shot backward and crashed into the ground below.

”Keep attacking!”

Emperor Caelus shouted.

More attacks immediately poured toward Alaster.

Yet the result remained the same.

Alaster moved through them with brutal ease. He punched apart a sword arc, slapped away a spear made from condensed aura, and tilted his head to avoid a beam of magic. When several attacks arrived together, the blood-red energy around his body suddenly expanded and formed a thick layer around him.

BOOOOOOM!
