Of the three teams dispatched from the Titan Domain, the one targeting the Sea Dream Temple was by far the strongest. But even then, as the two other forces descended upon them, the Radiant Light Mountain and the Eternal Void Sect stood no chance.

It was a blitzkrieg.

Though time chambers and seclusion allowed their two strongest elders to break through to the Legendary God Rank, the Radiant Light Mountain never saw what hit them. Mountain-sized fists descended at ten-thousand times the speed of light, crushing both the sect and Radiant Mountain supporting it.

Only the boom following the sect's collapse announced to the world that the Radiant Light Mountain had been...exterminated! In a flash, the trillions of lives in the Radiant Light Domain all rose, staring slack-jawed at the sight of the collapsing ancient mountain. Those celestial towns, cities, and sects bordering it failed to move in time, and all ended crushed by the debris! Beneath godhood, none could escape being crushed by random boulders!

But as the discarnate souls of millions of deceased Sages and Saints swelled the surroundings of the Radiant Light Mountain's destruction, the Eternal Void Sect suffered the same fate.

Well, almost.

When three mountain-sized fists descended on the sect, only Durga sensed the threat and rose to oppose it. But with her injured body, there was nothing she could do!

*BANG*

One of the three fists slammed Durga's soaring form, sending her flying right into her sect's ground! Unrestrained, the three fists tumbled, crashing into the Eternal Void Sect and squashing it alongside the mountain range supporting and surrounding it! The Radiant Light Domain's scene repeated, with the flattened mountain's debris shooting toward the nearby celestial towns and cities, crushing millions of lives in a heartbeat!

Meanwhile, Durga's mangled body lay within the ruins of her sect, squashed beyond recognition, and unable to move an inch. But even as death hit her, she couldn't understand how and why such a thing occurred.

"Hahahaha! How unsightly! In the past, when your despicable forces descended on our Titan Domain, sneak-attacked our wounded lord and slaughtered our Legendary Gods, your conceit filled the sky! Who would expect that billions of years afterward, you can't even withstand one blow!

Good for nothing ants!"

A gargantuan Titan's voice resounded from within Heaven's sky, alarming all citizens of the various domains.

"It's the Titan Domain! The Titan Domain is making a large scale attack on the Celestial World!"

Many Deva Gods realized in fright!

"Impossible! How could the Titan Domain possibly be this powerful?"

"What's the use of knowing that? Run to the Heaven Warding Temple!"

Confusion and commotions broke out throughout the thirteen domains before the most lucid deities led their brethren toward the Heaven Warding Temple to avoid calamities. This was the logical move. In the past, when Heaven and Hell contended in Realm Wars, the Heaven Warding Temple served as the wandering and unaffiliated Devas' shield.

But as they rushed toward it, those runaway deities and Sages were startled to find themselves blocked by invisible barriers! Their eyes widened in fright!

"Base and low ant, don't even dream of escaping! The Heaven Warding Temple will never shelter you!"

Another Titan's voice echoed from the sky, startling the runaway deities before gargantuan human palms descended to swat them all! The legions of runaway deities and sages burst into blood fog, leaving neither flesh nor soul behind!

"Renegades and descendants of the treacherous, hold still and await judgment, the day of reckoning...has come!"

A third Titan's voice thundered, nailing all on the ground, and preventing devas, spirits, and the humans within the lot to seek an escape road. Although the Titan race's breeding abilities were extremely low, with billions of years of time, hiding, and no internal strife, the Titan Domain still produced millions of citizens. The sheer quantity of deities at their disposal outpaced Heaven and Hell combined by an enormous margin.

With the foreign experts' assistance, their strength rose to absurd heights, exceeding anything the elite of Heaven and Hell could imagine. At first, following the appearance of the Chthonian Primogen and the unshackling of the devas and demons, the Titans lost hope. Owning hundreds of half-step Legendary Gods didn't alter the fact that quantity couldn't make up for quality.

With their lost Dao Inheritances, they couldn't openly challenge Heaven and Hell. At best, they could carry on with their guerilla warfare while seeking new opportunities. Never did they expect that at that time, 200 foreign Titans would appear to bolster their ranks and lead them into a succession of breakthroughs with mind-boggling resources!

Now, the foreigners aside, the leadership of the Titan Domain comprised more than 700 Legendary Gods, with 400 at the early-stage, 200 at the mid-stage, 100 at the late-stage, and 33 at the peak!

With that strength, throughout the Higher Realms, who could oppose them? Flattening the Celestial Realm was but a start. Right afterward, Hell would follow!

The team dispatched to the Radiant Light Mountain and the Eternal Void Sect vanished, reappearing alongside the main battalion that stood hidden within the Sea Dream Temple's sky. Like a masterfully trained force, their battalion descended, more than 300 Titans high of more than 10 kilometers dropped from Heaven's sky to surround the Sea Dream Temple.

Each boasted nine heads and eighteen arms, rippling with a horrendous suppression force that announced the arrival of bloodthirsty tyrants!

"Is this a way to treat esteemed guests? Daksha, roll out to greet your in-laws!"

The Titan at the helm, a middle-aged man with long, jet-black hair and a blood-red bindi-like mark on his forehead snarled. High of more than 18 kilometers, he was undoubtedly the tallest of the group, lording above the rest with not only his startling stature but a peak-stage Legendary God cultivation base.

As he spoke, the dreadful War, Truth and Fate Laws rippling around his form sent cracks into the mountain supporting the Sea Dream Temple—the sect shook with massive tremors.

He was the Titan Lord, the first God of War's grandson, and Daksha's nephew-in-law. In that distant past, following his grandfather's death, a bastard aunt of his with an impure bloodline rejected the Titan Domain for Daksha's arms, thereby becoming one of the first Maras.

Unfortunately, that shameful creature died in a Realm War. Otherwise, he'd also put her to trial.

No answer came from Daksha. Instead, it was the five Mara elders who rose to meet the invaders while Rati observed the scene from within the Cardinal Hall, both sides readied to activate the sect's formations.

"Besaran Samal, the Sea Dream Temple is no place for you to run amok!"

The former Law Enforcement Elder, who'd now broken through to the early-stage of the Legendary God Rank snapped at the Titan Lord. Though he couldn't accurately estimate the other party's current strength, and couldn't comprehend how it so suddenly stood beyond even his early-stage Legendary-God-eyes, there was no way he could show weakness within his sect!

Alas, he'd clearly picked the wrong day to show backbones.

"Impudent renegade! Instead of kneeling before your lord and pleading leniency, you have the gals to talk back? Death!"

Besaran, the Titan Lord proclaimed and raised his hand, shattering the former Law Enforcement Elder's Fate Standard in one move. His pupils dilated, and he tumbled onto the ground!

"Low-breed scoundrels, all of you...deserve to die!"
