Chapter 196.2: Drawing the Sword and Tearing the World, Rayne's True Strength (2)
The corpse mountain began to collapse and countless corpses charged towards Rayne and the God Consort in silence!
When these dead corpses obtained a second life…
They were already completely unrecognizable.
The flesh and blood of the dead were trampled and reconstructed casually like plasticine, imitating the appearance of the holy souls called Far Silence when they were alive in an incomparably simple and crude manner.
As such, more eyeballs grew out of the corpses and their bodies were forcefully torn apart, turning into strange existences that resembled tentacles.
This was an army that was the vanguard of the High Elves.
The Evil Star corrupted the king of the Heavenly Kingdom and made him sacrifice the citizens of Knull. It killed them and their corpses were used to contain the thousands of wills in Far Silence.
And now...
The army that was originally meant to attack the Heavenly Kingdoms targeted Rayne and the God Consort and charged.
The scene of the corpses rolling over was truly shocking and terrifying.
However, the next moment…
These evil beings were evaporated by the radiance of the Starburst.
Rayne was calm.
"Let's see if my sword technique is rusty…"
He placed his hand on the God Consort's chest. Instantly, dazzling starlight burst forth from the God Consort's chest and Rayne pulled out the cross sword made of pure energy!
Against the surging tide of corpses...
Rayne attacked.
The combat experience and vast knowledge that he had accumulated over the past 10,000 years condensed and refined at that moment, turning into a single slash!
A sword wind whistled past. The living corpses that were blown by the wind were cut in half at the waist and burned to ashes by the high temperature of the Starburst.
This was an extremely large-scale area of effect attack.
At that moment, the thousands of corpses that were charging over were reduced to ashes!
The gigantic mountain of corpses was incinerated by the scorching light of the Starburst.
All the filth and dirt vanished.
The world fell silent.
The ugly and distorted corpses disappeared and Heavenly Kingdom Knull seemed to have returned to the past.
Rayne nodded in satisfaction and returned the Starburst Sword to the God Consort.
Rayne smiled. "Alright, Your Highness God Consort, the battle is over."
However, the God Consort was in a daze and could not muster the strength to catch the sword Rayne handed her.
Rayne drew his sword too quickly and violently… This was only the second time the God Consort had released the Starburst naturally. Her body could not withstand the intense stimulation at all.
The moment the cross Starburst Sword was drawn, her sheath convulsed. Instantly, the joy that swept through her brain almost made her want to cry out.
Y-Yes. This was the feeling…
It was too intense and exciting…
Back then, when the God Consort was forcefully refined into a Starburst, the amount of pain she endured was equivalent in magnitude to the amount of joy right now.
The God Consort covered her mouth with all her might but could not help but let out a few soft cries.
She was glad that this was the last time Rayne would use her…
Otherwise, she would definitely be addicted to the feeling of naturally summoning the Starburst a few more times…
Or perhaps… she was already…
The God Consort lay in Rayne's arms and asked in a daze, "Is it over already…"
Rayne nodded with a smile. "Yes."
The God Consort smiled. "I thought you wouldn't know how to use it… I didn't expect you to get used to it so quickly."
Rayne said, "This means that we're a match made in heaven, beloved consort."
The God Consort: "Hmph…"
The God Consort punched Rayne gently in embarrassment.
However, when she, who was in a daze, gradually came back to her senses and was about to receive the Starburst Sword handed over by Rayne…
From the corner of her eye, the God Consort saw…
The fallen king of the Heavenly Kingdom was still standing on the spot, unharmed!
The God Consort's heart skipped a beat.
She pointed at the remaining monster hurriedly. "Rayne, be careful, there's still an enemy!"
Although the God Consort did not recognize who this monster was, his strong physique, complicated body structure and terrifying aura made him look completely different from ordinary living corpses!
This ferocious overlord of Far Silence did not dodge Rayne's attack. He merely stood on the spot and withstood the attack effortlessly with his strong physique!
The sword wind of the Starburst Sword blew past him without causing any damage.
This was a strong enemy!
However, before the God Consort could remind Rayne…
Something even more terrifying happened.
The God Consort realized that behind the throne of this fallen king of the Heavenly Kingdom… There were actually three coffins.
Rayne's attack earlier on destroyed his throne but did not cause any damage to the coffins behind it.
What... was the origin of those coffins?
The God Consort sensed that the three coffins exuded an aura that was incomparably unfamiliar to her. After thinking for a moment, she finally reacted.
It was... divinity!
The next moment, the three coffins opened with a bang!!!
The three shriveled and withered corpses had been dead for countless years. However, now that the holy souls of Far Silence possessed the corpses, they were reborn!
Boundless divine might surged.
The divinity authority bestowed by the gods formed various gorgeous and fatal phenomena around the three corpses.
It was… the corpses of three demigods!
The God Consort finally understood what the antiques that the king of Heavenly Kingdom Knull bought from the mortal world after borrowing food from the God King for money were.
They were these corpses of past experts!
The holy souls of Far Silence could corrupt corpses, control and mutilate them.
When these corpses were revived by the strange power of the Evil Star, they would basically retain their strength when they were alive!
This terrifying ability was precisely the reason why...
The Heavenly Kingdoms had value as the front line of defense against Far Silence.
There were no demigods in the Heavenly Kingdoms!
In this place where no divine blood flowed, the highest combat strength was Star God Remnant Radiance summoned by the Star Attendants.
However, that thing would not leave a corpse behind.
That was exactly the reason why the Far Silence army would face a serious lack of combat strength when they began to invade the Heavenly Kingdoms and their threat would be greatly reduced!
However, in the mortal world on the surface ground, there were way too many experts who died there. Therefore, once the corruption of Far Silence spread to the mortal world, the scale of the war would soar and turn into an apocalyptic calamity!
But now…
Something that the God Consort found unbelievable happened just like that.
When the Evil Star attacked this time round... Far Silence actually controlled the king of a Heavenly Kingdom to search for corpses of demigods in the mortal world. Thereafter, they were brought back to the Heavenly Kingdom and were corrupted to turn into high-end combatants to use!
The God Consort became nervous and broke out in cold sweat.
Three demigods…
Coupled with the unknown strength of an advanced Far Silence...
There were way too many enemies!
The power of the Starburst was indeed strong, but it was far from enough to deal a devastating blow to the combat strength of the mortal world.
When the God King entertained demigod guests from the mortal world, he would often invite them to spar.
The God Consort did not support such sparring. However, the God King was usually extremely persistent on this matter.
As such, the God Consort could only agree helplessly.
And in these matches, the best result of the God King was to defeat two demigods at once.
The God King would basically not lose in a two-on-one battle.
However, if there were three demigods, it would be impossible for the God King to win.
