Return of the Shattered Constellation

Chapter 432: Star, Taurus (7)

Chapter 432: Star, Taurus (7)

You know?! Do you even know what youve done?! Bel-Marduk yelled, his face reddening. The carefree look he had always worn like a mask was now gone.

Ziiinnnng!

Perhaps it was because Bel-Marduk was furious, but his sword shook as he pushed back [Gungnir].

I dont know, Chang-Sun answered.

What?

I said I dont know. Chang-Suns cold smile deepened. Should I?

Finally succumbing to his anger, Bel-Marduk growled, You son of a bi!

[The Celestial Abyss-Chasing Great Devil shakes his head and says that their levels of eloquence are certainly far apart despite being the same beings.]

That! Nereid Stone! Is for !

Most of what Bel-Marduk said was censored, but Chang-Sun easily understood him. To Bel-Marduk, the Nereid Stone was more than just a raw ingredient to extract [Gaias Curse]. Chang-Sun wasnt sure what Bel-Marduks exact story was, but he saw no reason to care.

Chang-Sun scoffed. You should have taken better care of it, then.

! ! !

With everything now censored, Chang-Sun could no longer even get an idea of what Bel-Marduk was trying to say.

[Your Subordinate Wandering Shadow has been successfully summoned back.]

[Your Subordinate Goddess of Massacre and Destruction has been successfully summoned back.]

[All your Subordinates have been successfully summoned back to the Changgwi Cave!]

Paying Bel-Marduk no attention, Chang-Sun focused on the plan. He brought all his subordinates back to the Changgwi Cave, leaving only Bel-Marduks subordinates suffering from spreading [Gaias Curse].

Arrrgh! Arrrghhh!

S-save me!

My <Myths>... My divine power Theyre being evaporated!

I cant gather my Faith! Please save me! I dont want to die like thiskeough!

[The Subordinate Enemy-Loathed Gate grasps her head and begs her life as her Myths disintegrate!]

[The Subordinate Intruder-Loathed Gate is overwhelmed by the pain of his heart breaking!]

[The Subordinate Soldier-Protecting Gate screams in agony as his soul is being torn apart!]

Exposed to [Gaias Curse], Urash, Zababa, and AdadBel-Marduks most treasured gate protectorsfound themselves helpless against it. [Gaias Curse] could not be detoxified or resisted. Hence, all they could do was scream and watch themselves rotting and disintegrating. Bel-Marduks soldiers, despite being capable of killing most Celestials with ease, still found themselves in hell.

[The Authority Execution Sword has been deactivated!]

[The Divine Ground Twilight-Setting Battlefield has been closed.]

Pzz, pzzz!

Chang-Sun removed the barrier of his divine ground, allowing the wormhole in the sky to quickly expand. He then pushed Bel-Marduk back as hard as possible and sprang toward the wormhole.

Paah!

Already half out of his mind, Bel-Marduk shouted, Where !

Babylonia was in ruins, and all his subordinates were about to get slaughtered. To solve his problems, he would have to capture Chang-Sun and retrieve the Nereid Stone first.

No, even if not for those reasons, he still couldnt let Chang-Sun go through the wormhole now that he knew it was connected to the Star Palace. If [Gaias Curse] spread to <Horoscope>s central divine ground and reached the other Star Signs, everything they were fighting for would be destroyed!

Chasing after Chang-Sun, who turned into a ray of light as he flew up to the wormhole, Bel-Marduk turned into a golden ray of light as well. Approaching the wormhole, which was tinged with dark green now that [Gaias Curse] was traveling through it, was suicide.

The place is already fill with ! Do you seriously th youll be !

[The Celestial Taurus has been infected with Gaias Curse.]

[The vocal cord of the Celestial Taurus has been ruined, preventing him from speaking properly.]

[Current condition: Poisoned.]

Chang-Sun watched as Bel-Marduk inhaled and was poisoned by [Gaias Curse], much like what happened to his subordinates. Although Bel-Marduks condition wasnt as severe as theirs, he still couldnt do anything about his destabilizing Divine Class and disintegrating <Myths>.

The law of causality, which Bel-Marduk disregarded, overrode him and censored his hysterical cursing, but Chang-Sun had no problem understanding what he was saying.

This place is already filled with [Gaias Curse]! Do you seriously think youll be safe from it?!

Chang-Sun chuckled. He had naturally already considered that before executing the plan.

Ding!

Ding!

[The Effect of the Trait Thousand Toxin Immunity has located and is now fighting off Gaias Curse in your immune system.]

[The toxins severity is preventing antibody creation.]

[You have entered the Poisoned state!]

Poison began to mark Chang-Suns skin with spots.

[The Effects of the Trait Triple Samahdi Fire have been applied, igniting a flame to burn up the toxin!]

[The Effects of the Trait Divine Lightning Body have been applied, strengthening your stamina and the flame of the Trait Triple Samahdi Fire!]

[The Effects of the Trait King of All Weapons have been applied, increasing the efficiency of your antibody creation!]

[Your Traits Effects have synergized, strengthening your immune system.]

[You have successfully resisted the toxin.]

[Antibodies have been created.]

[Congratulations! Your Trait Thousand Toxin Immunity has been upgraded to the Trait Impervious Body!]

[Impervious Body]

The Trait that the Celestial Divine Twilight has completed with the help of the Celestial Jingwang King. Those with this Trait gain immunity against most existing toxins and curses, quickly build up antibodies for any new toxins, and occasionally produce the toxins they acquire.

True freedom is being free from all the curses in the world.

Type: Trait.

Effects: Poison Immunity. Curse Immunity. All Toxin Creation. Antibody Creation.

Paah!

Chang-Sun finally reached the end of the path that the Jingwang King, whom he called the First Elder, showed him. Having lost his Divine Class due to [Gaias Curse] before, he had prepared very thoroughly for this moment. [Impervious Body] naturally couldnt keep him completely safe from [Gaias Curse], but it wasnt his only countermeasure against it.

We discovered many interesting things from Antares interrogation. Jingwang worked quite hard, Thanatos told Chang-Sun.

The information that Thanatos had obtained from Antares the Scorpio had helped Chang-Sun prepare for [Gaias Curse] in every possible way.

[The <Store Window> has been opened!]

[The current amount of your coins]

[You have purchased a Heavenly Nectarine!]

[You have purchased a Hydras Heart!]

[You have purchased a Heavily Diluted Nectar!]

Every time [Gaias Curse] destabilized his [Impervious Body], Chang-Sun drank elixirs in the order that Antares had taught him.

[Your immune system has been strengthened, making it easier to resist the toxin!]

[The number of antibodies fighting the curse has increased!]

If only I could have undone Ye-Euns curse like this, Chang-Sun bitterly thought as he passed through the wormhole.

[You have entered the Star Palace, the central divine ground of the Society <Horoscope>!]

Aahhhhhhh!

Save!

I-it hurtkeouuugh!

The place had already turned into hell, its situation as bad asno, maybe even worse than what was going on below. Every Star Sign in the area was either lying on the floor or scratching the walls in pain, their colors fading. It was quite a gruesome sight. From what Chang-Sun could sense, the Zodiacs didnt seem to be in good shape either.

However, the <Horoscope> Star Signs werent the only ones here. <Maleakhe> seraphim and <LInfernal> demon kings had also fallen victim to [Gaias Curse].

[Seeing you has made the Celestial Sky-Resemble furious!]

I knew it! Gabriel said you will ruin the world and she was right! Michael exclaimed with difficulty as he panted in the sky. He had covered himself with his wings, which had turned black.

[The Celestial Malignity-Drinking Saturn exudes his deep enmity toward you!]

Twilight!!!!

Satan quickly glided down and unleashed a powerful [Dragon Breath]. Among his seven heads, the one that Chang-Sun blew up using Duskfall before seemed especially furious.

I didnt expect this many people to welcome me, Chang-Sun murmured.

Bel-Marduk was below him, and Michael and Satan were up in the sky. It certainly was not an everyday occasion for two of the Nine Heavens to have a common enemy, but Chang-Sun wasnt worried.

[The old Celestial Cane-Holding Father of Warriors has appeared!]

Its quite noisy in here, Odin nonchalantly complained. His [Gnostic Eye] gleamed coldly. Get lost.

Thud!

With a very simple [Wordwielding] command, he catapulted Satan and Bel-Marduk away with an invisible force before they could even approach Chang-Sun. Satan, still in his colossal form, crashed into a nearby skyscraper before he hit the ground, and Bel-Marduk was pushed back even further away, leaving two long furrows.

Odin! Michael exclaimed as he looked down.

Unbefitting his personality, he lost his composure due to the strong pressure Odin pressed down on himno, on all of <Maleakhe> and <Heaven>.

<Maleakhe> and <LInfernal> used to be active <Societies> but had to lock themselves down. They proclaimed themselves enforcers who maintained the Great Universes balance and made sure no one would succeed in becoming the new Celestial King of Worldline #801. Nevertheless, legends about Celestial Kings and the tendency to worship them remained strong in <Heaven>. It even created the Nine Heavens, a group of unbelievably powerful beings. Odin was the reason behind all of those.

Michael gnashed his teeth. He could still remember the accomplishments Odin made when he was still just a child. Despite facing thousands of seraphim, Demonic Celestial Odin massacred them all with one gesture. He didnt even show a hint of nervousness.

Odin should be stuck in the endless cycle of samsara. How can he be here?!

Its been a while since I had a picnic outside. Smiling coldly, Odin Odin looked at Michael, Satan, and the other seraphim and demon kings. For some reason, I see a lot of familiar kids.

Running into his enemiesthe same people who killed his teacher Bestla and made <Asgard> fallafter being away for eternity made him quite happy.

[The Divine Class of the old Celestial Cane-Holding Father of Warriors envelops the Divine Ground Star Palace!]

Now under Odins dignity, which was by no means weaker than that of his prime, everyone held their breath. Even those who were suffering from [Gaias Curse] couldnt make a sound.

After a moment, someones footstep finally broke the silence.

Tap!

You sure took your sweet time after asking me to do this kind of miscellaneous work, Odin grumbled when Chang-Sun lightly landed beside him.

Things happened.

Tiamat couldnt help chuckling after seeing Chang-Sun and Odin together.

So there are two of my dearest now. Im not sure if this Great Universe would be safe with two Twilights in it,Tiamat said and then chuckled when she saw Chang-Sun and Odin together. Following the plan she had made with Chang-Sun, she had made her army withdraw before [Gaias Curse] could spread.

[The Celestial Abyss-Chasing Great Devil sighs and nods in agreement.]
