“So that’s how it is…” Yu Zi Yu mumbled suddenly. Upon opening his Heavenly Eye, he caught sight of a figure not far from him, an existence he had not perceived until now.

The figure was cloaked in a radiant brilliance, and had sixteen golden wings on his back, fluttering lightly. The wings were illusory, but every time they fluttered, ripples of dazzling light pulsated from them, affecting layers of space.

Apparently, his speed was just immensely fast, to the point that even now, his figure had yet not completely solidified. Instead, he appeared as though countless particles were endlessly converging.

This was the power of the Sixteen Holy Wings, the Imperial Artifact which granted its host the ability to transform into infinite particles of light in an instant, achieving the speed of light.

As fast as light, and so was he.

However, it came with its limitations. After each rapid movement, his body required time for the other light particles to converge.

Forcing movement without waiting would result in severe damage to his body.

This limitation was only due to his inability to fully harness the true power of the Imperial Artifact. If he truly mastered the Imperial Artifact, such pauses would be unnecessary.

At that point, what awaited Yu Zi Yu would be an onslaught of relentless and destructive attacks, as fearsome as a comet crashing into a planet.

*Heh heh…* Soft, cold laughter escaped from Yu Zi Yu as he sighed in admiration, “Another Tier-6 Overlord, I see…”

With that, Yu Zi Yu raised his Dragon Claw and swiped fiercely at the figure.

*Boooooom…* Shattering the space around it, Yu Zi Yu’s Dragon Claw turned into a shadow so vast it blotted out the sky, covering Heaven in its entirety.

It was not that Yu Zi Yu’s Dragon Claw had physically expanded; rather, in the moment he raised it, an inexplicable force locked onto the figure with sixteen wings, making it feel as though Yu Zi Yu’s claw was boundless in size.

It gave a suffocating sense of inescapability.

However, in the face of this, Seraphim just smirked as he silently sensed the power surging within him. He did not seem to show concern.

All restrictive methods were meaningless against him, the wielder of the Imperial Artifact’s projection.

And so…

*Swooosh…* In the blink of an eye, Seraphim’s form vanished, replaced by a radiant burst of light, erupting next to Yu Z Yu’s Purple Dragon Form.

*Booooom, booooom, boooooom…*

One explosion after another resounded as Seraphim unleashed an onslaught at an unfathomable speed.

It was like countless lasers bombarding his colossal Dragon Form, slowly pushing it back.

In fact, through the perspective of Yu Zi Yu’s blood-red Heavenly Eye, the scene appeared even more exaggerated.

One figure,

Two figures,

…

Hundreds, even thousands of radiant figures surrounded him, all attacking simultaneously.

These were afterimages, drawn out by Seraphim ‘s incredible speed.

Yet to Yu Zi Yu, each afterimage felt real, because this foe, relying on a projection of the Imperial Artifact—the Sixteen Holy Wings, had seemingly transcended the constraints of time.

At the same moment, from countless directions, all kinds of attacks struck Yu Zi Yu’s gigantic Dragon Form: Beams of light, slashes of energy…

Under this crazy onslaught of attack, even Yu Zi Yu’s formidable defenses were beginning to falter.

*Crack…* Visible cracks started to appear on his scales.

“This guy…” Flexing his massive claw, Yu Zi Yu narrowed his eyes at the figure relentlessly striking him.

“So this is the power of an Imperial Artifact…” mumbling to himself, Yu Zi Yu felt an ever-growing desire to get his hand on the Imperial Artifact.

How could a mere intermediate-stage Tier-6 Overlord possess such speed that even he, with his opened Heavenly Eye, struggled to catch?

The Heavenly Eye, known for its unparalleled observational ability, could even slow down everything it saw. Yet, even with its aid, all Yu Zi Yu could perceive were countless afterimages.

“How terrifying!?” Marveling in his heart, Yu Zi Yu strengthened his defense.

Having decided, Yu Zi Yu let out a thunderous cry, “Titan’s Heart…”

The Titan’s Heart was a fearsome ability unique to the Titan Clan, one that only Titans who had reached Tier-5 could cultivate. It exponentially increased one’s size, thereby significantly enhancing their defense.

This was an ability Yu Zi Yu had harvested from Fallen Titan, and it seemed perfectly suited for the occasion.

And just as Yu Zi Yu’s resonant cry faded…

*Booooom, booooom, boooooom…* With fearsome rumbles, Yu Zi Yu’s already enormous body began to expand once again at a speed visible to the naked eye. His purple scales grew larger and larger, overlapping one another as they swelled to more than twice their original size.

Meanwhile, his Dragon Form stretched further and further.

*Crack… Crack…* Faintly, even the Void Vortex appeared to be unable to bear the strain, and cracks started to appear around it continuously.

Noticing this, Yu Zi Yu fiercely twisted his massive body.

*Boooooom…* And with a deafening roar, and under the astonished gazes of Seraphim and Archangel Michael, the massive Purple Dragon, growing larger by the second, tried forcing its way out of the Void Vortex with sheer brute strength.

“Are you kidding me?!” Michael cried out in shock, a look of utter disbelief plastered over his face.

Then, as if snapping back to his senses, he bellowed at Seraphim, “Quick! Stop him! That monster… once his true form descends, I don’t know if we can deal with him anymore!”

Hearing Michael’s frantic roars, Seraphim also realized the gravity of the situation. With a furious flap of his sixteen illusory golden wings, he unleashed another storm-like barrage of attacks, growing even more violently.

*Booooom, booooom…*

Yu Zi Yu’s scales began to crack and shatter under the onslaught, pieces of his scales fell away as streams of deep violet blood sprayed into the air.

The blood falling down on the surface was like a violet rain, with each drop exuding an aura that sent shivers down the spine.

But even so…

*Roooooaar…* Yu Zi Yu let out an even-louder Dragon Roar, an excited gleam appearing on his face.

In just a short moment, more than 40% of his massive Form had emerged from the vortex.

Looking at it, one could see a gargantuan Dragon extending further and further into space.

*Roooooaar…* The Dragon’s Roars grew ever more intense as Yu Zi Yu, defying the combined attacks of two Tier-6 Overlords, continued to force his way out of the vortex.

At this moment, every living being on the Lumina Sanctis gazed at the sky in horror.

The sky appeared to have been ripped apart, split in two by a boundless violet rift. And from within that rift, an unimaginably massive Purple Dragon slithered forth, so immense that its form seemed unending.

Its shimmering purple scales glowed with a deep, mysterious light, while its defiant Dragon Eyes glinted with a flash of crimson.

Its terrifying Dragon Head, as enormous and ferocious as a mountain, descended with unstoppable momentum.

“Roooooaar…* With a resounding Dragon Roar, Yu Zi Yu’s colossal body plummeted in a dive, hurtling straight toward Lumina Sanctis.

*Boooooom…* With an earth-shaking crash, the entire continent trembled violently, as a massive shockwave swept across Lumina Sanctis, expanding outward in all directions.

*Booooom, booooom, boooooom…* One deafening explosion after another resounded as mountains crumbled, and the ground split apart.

For a moment, it seemed as though Lumina Sanctis had met its apocalypse.

The phrase ‘a comet colliding with a planet’ perfectly captured the scene before them.

A mushroom-shaped cloud of dust, soaring tens of thousands of meters into the sky, vividly displayed the terrifying impact in all its glory.
