Pure-Heart (5)

The distance between the two was large.

An unthinkable distance of thousands of light years away but, with a footstep, space bent and the figure appeared before the Eldest.

With a pair of hands behind his back, another pair on his waist, and the final pair folded above his chest, Second Eldest Ancient God stared coldly toward the Eldest.

Oh!

Peering into the pair of eyes that was on Second Eldest, Eldest smiled knowingly as his lips parted and he said.

"Sion... No, should I call you Ancient Universe?"

Thrum!

Sion, no, the Ancient Universe who had taken control of the second eldest appeared shocked by the Eldest and his words.

For him, this was nothing special. After all, he had transcended what was supposed to be the limit of his potential, his strength was beyond anything.

As for the Ancient Universe, it was precisely due to this, it needed to get rid of this creation. It was the only creation unaffected even if it wanted to control it.

Such a variable, the Ancient Universe was unwilling to leave alive. But it still hadn't been expected that the eldest could see through its control.

Being unable to be controlled was still acceptable, but now that it could even see through its control over others, sneak attacks were now useless.

Bzzzzz!

Not standing on ceremony, the surrounding space vibrated violently.

Looking down to the earth below, from the skies, the controlled body of Second sent an unimaginably powerful attack!

It seemed like a casual wave of his hand but, suddenly a massive purple palm containing the illusion of endless amounts of stars appeared.

There were trillions of glowing starlights inside of the palm that rushed toward the eldest creation in the Ancient Universe.

"The one who goes by Pure-Heart, today is the day of your annihilation!" An emotionless and robotic voice resonated in the surroundings.

Sion's lips moved when speaking but, the voice originated from all around the one who was now known as Pure-Heart.

As Pure-Heart expected, soon, countless figures appeared. Surrounding him were several thousand figures, each releasing hostility.

The hostile auras of three thousand Ancient Gods descended on his body. Seeing this, Pure-Heart gazed at the incoming palm thousands of kilometers in size.

A sneer appeared on his face as he casually waved his palm. Seeing all the people who surrounded him, he snickered...

Buzzzzz!

Cracks appeared in the skies. Instantly, a greyish purple palm rushed toward the incoming purple palm originating from Sion's body.

Fwoosh!

There wasn't any explosion when the two powers connected. It was like the collision of the casual breeze and the body of a human.

There wasn't a collision. The human body would easily push through the breeze as if it wasn't there.

Similarly, it was as if the purple palm was a light breeze and the greyish palm was a massive physical object.

Even though the purple palm contained endless power, in the face of Pure-Heart's strength, it was nothing!

Thrum!

The massive palm continued on its path. Sion's face showed a trace of surprise as the relaxed persona changed in an instant.

Raising all six hands to the skies, a disgustingly huge amount of dreadful energy was released into the surroundings.

Brrrrr!

It wasn't just him though.

With the synchronicity one would expect from the three thousand bodies who were controlled by a single mind, they all released their energies together!

One must know, the energies didn't just shoot to the skies. They had seemingly intertwined, causing the powers to multiply in strength.

Being controlled by one entity, this had become possible. It was also due to this that Pure-Heart didn't dare to completely look down on these Ancient Gods.

In the skies, thousands of figures formed a massive circle with a diameter of countless hundreds of lightyears and surrounded one lone figure below.

Pure-Heart was still in a meditative posture. It was too troublesome to take them seriously enough to stand up.

He didn't look down on these Ancient Gods, it was just that these people didn't have the liberty to make him serious.

Cautious and serious were, after all, two different things. It meant two things and at the moment, these three thousand Ancient Gods could only make him cautious.

And this too was stretching it. In the face of the incoming giant palm filled with hundreds of trillions of brilliant fragments of light, Pure-Heart coldly snickered.

Brrrrr! Xiu!

Pure-Heart stood to his feet. At that moment, his aura skyrocketed with intense and immeasurable strength.

Like an overbearing Lord Emperor, Pure-Heart waved his sleeves. Right after, countless fragments of light shot toward the skies.

Wherever it went, it'll leave the skies with multiple cracks as when they drew closer to the incoming palm, they began merging, taking form into one object.

It seemed slow, but it was soo quick that it happened in no time. It had transcended the concept of speed.

By the time it had come in touching distance with the group attack, the skies had already turned black, and both sun and moon disappeared.

*Bang!*

The planet shook violently as the two attacks collided. The shockwave instantly pulverized all the planets nearby.

At least ten planets in the surrounding thousand light years were shockingly turned into universal dust in but a mere breath.

Oh!

Pure-Heart suddenly frowned. His brows knitted as the sight of his attack failing entered his vision.

As it had been processed by his brain, no time passed and he began snickering, and right after, his voice resounded throughout.

"Do you think your pitiful illusions and dreams can affect me?!" Scoffing to such an idea, Pure-Heart's aura shot through the roof.

His demeanor completely changed. From the casual Lord Emperor of absolute royal status, he now possessed the aura of a blood-crazed fallen God.

Thrum!

The world vibrated. Beams of intense heat shot out of his eyes as a mysterious force descended to the earth.

*Boom!*

The skies cracked even more exaggeratedly than any time before. Countless cracks appeared as it slowly broke apart into tiny fragmented pieces.

Immediately, it was replaced by a crimson-red sky. The clouds were seemingly dripping the red blood of a flesh and blood lifeform!

At this moment, the true power of Pure-Heart's previous strike was laid bare and the repercussions were the now sorry state of many Ancient Gods.

Hong! Hong! Hong! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

But, Pure-Heart's face changed once more. He, the Eldest didn't enter an illusion for the second time, no, his expression froze due to the chains.

Chains!...

Golden purple chains originating from the universe known as the Ancient Universe pierced through spacetime and entered the dimension of three thousand worlds!

The power of these chains caused Pure-Heart's expression to change slightly. His eyes lit up as he realized that this wasn't an ordinary attack.

"Hohoho..." Pure-Heart broke out laughing as the chains rushed toward him. "You are finally ready to take me seriously...?"

Speaking to no one in particular, his large purple-haired figure stopped bothering to suppress his strength any longer.

With the inclusion of these chains, it didn't matter to him about the Ancient Gods as the fight had now truly begun.

'The only confusing thing is for the reason behind the Ancient Universe taking over the bodies of the three thousand Ancient Gods?'

To him, those so-called Ancient Gods and sheep were one and the same. Both were very easy to slaughter.

Obviously, the mind of the Ancient Universe should understand this too. Knowing how useless they were in this battle, the Ancient Universe still involved them...?

'Did you think I'll care if they're the ones I need to slaughter to transcend?'
