From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

Chapter 225: Chapter 215: The Tiger Enters the Flock of Sheep

```

Precise and powerful strikes of thunder roared down, with the dazzling light containing the fiercest and most scorching intent to kill. The nobles of the East Coast were not entirely unprepared; they had long since employed a variety of different bloodline powers, protective spells, and mysterious rare artifacts to build numerous defenses.

Byrne furrowed his brows and murmured to himself, "We must block him!"

Surrounded by lightning, the blade shone like stars, cleaving the skies with its brilliance!

In the next moment, General Rhea had already descended into the city streets amidst lightning and thunder, destroying most of the myriad defenses in an instant, and the hundreds of Extraordinary Exponents retreated subconsciously in terror, with no one killed in the first wave.

"The power has been weakened too much..."

The near-full-force strike was completely defended against, which was not beyond General Rhea's expectations, because the barrier of the city Fein was very strong, and his bloodline power was not known for wide-ranging lethality.

The white-haired Viscount Bast extended a finger and called out coldly,

"Everyone, attack together! Take him down now, for due to the barrier, this old man cannot unleash all his power! Hehehe!"

He was the first to make a move, not using the terrible power of demons but instead employing the bloodline power "Bronze Lion" to change his skin color, then taking out a mirror-shaped forbidden rare artifact and beginning to activate it.

The morale of the multitude surged inexplicably, and although the old general before them was a Monarch Level top-tier expert, with the aid of the Fein city barrier and following Viscount Bast's order, everyone unhesitatedly went into action!

Yet the multitude of attacks could not breach the defenses; the armor composed of thunder and lightning immediately kept the attackers at bay.

"Hmph!"

The old general's body was covered in lightning serpents as he once again wielded his blade, guiding a myriad of precise lightning strikes to kill one after another who dared advance.

In an instant, more than a dozen were killed, and those around were too terrified to approach again.

The link that supplied the "Mighty Angel" with sustenance through spell inscriptions was broken due to the chaos among the crowd below.

The "Mighty Angel" Bern above quickly created a clone, spread his wings, and dove at high speed to join the battle below.

The old general was well-prepared and, without any warning, struck back with his sword, piercing through the chest of the "Mighty Angel" clone, and then a massive surge of thunder erupted!

"It's just a clone after all!"

There were many Extraordinary Exponents present, but only three – Viscount Bast, Chris, and the recently advanced to high-level Transmutation Chief Renzo – were of high-level Transmutation or 4th Rank. The dozens of other Transmutation Extraordinary Exponents could only play a disruptive role.

Even weaker Beginning Extraordinary Exponents didn't dare to charge forward, as mere aftershocks of the battle could annihilate them on the spot, with the overwhelming aura of the Monarch powerful exert already paralyzing many.

Were it not for Fein's barrier weakening the strength, it wouldn't have been difficult for General Rhea to slaughter hundreds of Extraordinary Exponents present.

"Is the Black Lion not here..."

Byrne watched the terrifying onslaught of General Rhea and had silently used rune power, fixing his gaze on the enemy as he directed a scorching meteor to fall from the sky!

"Hmm?" Your next read is at m v|l-e'-NovelBin.net

As if sensing the murderous intent, General Rhea's gaze immediately locked onto Byrne and he said coldly, "A forbidden rare artifact?"

The sword in his hand erupted with the utmost thunder and lightning, finally destroying the "Mighty Angel's" clone completely, and then the thunder rose up, striking all around, with several bolts hitting the meteor and causing an extremely violent explosion!

At that moment, Viscount Bast's mirror had already appeared in front of General Rhea.

It too was a powerful forbidden rare artifact; the Fischer family had once relied on a part of it to create an opportunity to successfully kill Priest Azure Blue.

"Hmm!"

General Rhea's eyes became confused and bewildered, albeit for a moment, but Chris and Chief Renzo had seized the opportunity to rush up in attack!

The weaker Monarch powerful expert who was killed by surrounding Transmutation Exponents back then had fallen mainly due to the instantaneous effects of various unthinkable forbidden rare artifacts.

Even mighty Monarch powerful experts cannot underestimate the effects of those forbidden rare artifacts.

Renzo Leone's bloodline inheritance was not the "Bronze Lion," but another rare high-level bloodline of the Lion clan, "Graystone Giant Ape."

His form surged, growing several meters tall as the ground beneath his feet rippled like ocean waves. Renzo was surprisingly able to surf on the earth, controlling it with great precision.

He swung his paws, manipulating a myriad of sand, stone, and mud to overwhelm General Rhea.

```

The "Graystone Giant Ape's" power of Bloodline allowed Chief Renzo to manipulate the earth, burying people alive or completely crushing them with extremely high density.

The next instant, General Rhea's vacant eyes suddenly returned to normal!

He violently unleashed a great amount of lightning, instantly shattering the mud and sand, and then the crazy electric power bombarded Chief Renzo's body!

Chief Renzo was instantly blown away, his fate unknown.

Viscount Bast's face was grim as he silently activated a terrifying power. Unnoticed by anyone, a white demon lurking inside Renzo's body slowly dissipated.

The demon had acted as a sacrificial substitute, barely saving Renzo's life.

At the same time, Chris had already stealthily arrived behind General Rhea!

Black Fire of Sin emerged around him, immediately latching onto General Rhea's body and bursting into flames!

Vanessa had already "condemned" General Rhea. The negative status was instantly ignited by the black Fire of Sin, making the old man feel heavy and sluggish.

However, that feeling of heaviness and sluggishness was almost negligible for General Rhea, not affecting his actions in the least.

Suddenly, dazzling flashes of lightning burst forth from his body, forming intertwining arcs of electricity, like fierce pythons struggling.

"One after another coming to seek death!"

Without even turning his body, General Rhea's deadly lightning was already on its way to kill Chris when suddenly all things came to a standstill!

In the vast area nearby, only Chris could move!

"Huh?"

Up above, Prince Conrad, engrossed in battle, noticed the power that stopped everything in its tracks and quickly fell into thought.

"A very powerful Forbidden rare artifact indeed..."

In those few seconds, Chris attacked the elderly General Rhea near frantically. Eventually, his weapons managed to breach the Thunder armor's defenses, causing severe damage, and he retreated only at the last moment.

And the moment the standstill ended, General Rhea's body erupted with serious injuries. Riddled with holes, he was shocked to discover that the black flames on his body were not easily extinguished.

"What kind of flame is this? What was that standstill just now?"

His eyes were resolute, yet they conveyed endless pain. Blood plasma oozed from all over his body, his left arm severely damaged, hanging like a broken branch, his clothes soaked with blood. Each breath came with agony, as if telling of unspeakable torment.

General Rhea could barely stand, his body swaying, barely able to support himself.

Yet despite his grievous wounds, he still appeared very determined, with some unshakable resolve deep inside.

Unfortunately, General Rhea's power was much higher than Chris's.

"Lethality" had no effect!

He consumed a significant amount of spiritual power, continually repairing life-threatening injuries on his body. The flesh near death visibly healed at a speed discernible to the naked eye.

The next moment, a vast amount of lightning burst forth!

In an instant, his surroundings were filled with an electric glow, like countless flickering stars. The roaring thunder seemed to devour all life.

In the blinding light, he himself appeared buried, leaving only the dazzling visual impact of rolling currents.

As if caught in a magnificent and irresistible vortex of energy, in a flash, several Cyart Extraordinary Exponents were struck dead by the lightning.

Even Chris, who had already retreated, suffered from the lightning damage in an instant, but then he quickly received Lilian's rapid healing, allowing his physical body to recover swiftly.

Watching the old man akin to a thunder god, the East Coast nobles were furiously outraged, yet they dared not approach.

"Retreat! We'll find another opportunity!"

It was then that Prince Conrad, with a dark expression, gave the command to retreat. It turned out that the purple-dressed woman, weakened by the barrier, could no longer hold on against "Stars Mortal" Ariel.

Thus, General Rhea nodded slightly, rose into the air, and three Monarch powerful experts swiftly left the barrier without hesitation.
