“The Golden Ray Armor… I see!”
The Great Light Honorable Lord stood quietly in the void. His gaze seemed to bore holes into everything. Even Merlin felt an inkling of threat.
With just a single glance, the Great Light Honorable Lord was able to tell that Merlin was wearing the Golden Ray Armor and could wield its strength. Although the Great Light Honorable Lord appeared unfazed on the outside, his heart underwent a ma.s.sive lurch.
The Great Light Honorable Lord had controlled two of the Vestigial Tribe’s confinement dimensions. Naturally, he knew of the formidable prowess of the Golden Ray Armor. The armor was used by the Vestigial Tribe to fight against supreme existences such as the ancient Thirty-six Emperors. Such powers had far exceeded even the third-grade ultimate existences.
All these years, the reason for his continuous search for the Vestigial Tribe’s confinement dimensions could be summed up to one main reason – to locate the Vestigial Tribe’s Golden Ray Armor.
Now, the Golden Ray Armor had finally appeared before his eyes. Moreover, Merlin was able to operate it despite not possessing any Vestigial Tribe blood, so the Great Light Honorable Lord was even more thrilled.
“That’s right. Since you know it’s the Golden Ray Armor, why did you come to die?”
Merlin’s tone was also very calm.
“Haha, come to die? You may be wearing that armor but you’re not really from the Vestigial Tribe. How much of the Golden Ray Armor can you possibly wield? At best, you’re just another third-grade ultimate existence like me. Why should I be afraid? However, it’s such a waste for the Golden Ray Armor to be worn by you. If I obtain it and study it for a long time, I’m sure that I’ll be able to discover the true use of the Golden Ray Armor. By then, I’ll be comparable to the Thirty-six Emperors!”
The ancient Thirty-six Emperors were widely recognized by the entire Void Zone as the pinnacle existences.
However, the war with the Vestigial Tribe saw not only the extermination of the Vestigial Tribe but also heavy losses suffered by the ancient Thirty-six Emperors. As to how many of them were left today, no one knew.
Nowadays, even the fourth-grade Emperor Lords were few and far in between, much less the Thirty-six Emperors.
It was far too difficult for the Great Light Honorable Lord to achieve the fourth grade Emperor Lord just relying on himself. However, if he had obtained the Golden Ray Armor, his powers would soar. Not only would he be comparable to the fourth-grade ultimate existences, but even the ancient Thirty-six Emperors.
Seeing the greed surfacing in the Great Light Honorable Lord’s eyes, Merlin smiled. Back then, the two Curved Horn Creatures and the three Light Guardians as well as the Great Light Honorable Lord now, would reveal their greed upon spotting his Golden Ray Armor.
Nevertheless, the two Curved Horn Creatures and three Light Guardians were dead!
Battle. There were no more words wasted. They descended into battle – a legendary battle between third-grade ultimate existences!
“Boom.”
The Great Light Honorable Lord initiated an attack. He transformed into a source of light and began to pour forth a scorching ray that burned everything!
Originally, the Great Light Honorable Lord’s light rays were very warm and genial. However, these rays now had metamorphized into a deadly force that emitted infinite powers.
At this moment, the Great Light Honorable Lord did not care about the Great Light Dimension, the Great Light Region or any of his subordinates. All he saw was Merlin!
After all, the Great Light Region, even added with the two Vestigial Tribe’s confinement dimensions, was not as precious as a Golden Ray Armor.
“Chi chi chi.”
On the surface of Merlin’s Golden Ray Armor, the golden rays were suppressed. A layer of white flames appeared and burned continuously. Merlin felt a slight trace of heat.
Merlin finally put away his slack and heightened his guard. This was the first time he was completely suppressed in the Golden Ray Armor. If he continued down this path, the Golden Ray Armor might not be damaged but he would be injured.
“Gravitational field!”
Merlin growled softly. A twisted vortex appeared before him. Once the white rays were sucked into this vortex, they appeared to be twisted and swallowed, thus disappearing without a trace.
This not only contained the gravitational field but also the ability to disintegrate the power of the natural order. Otherwise, he would not able to battle a third-grade ultimate existence like the Great Light Lord G.o.d.
Moreover, Merlin had also activated the Golden Ray Armor fully. Faced against the Great Light Honorable Lord, he would have to give his all.
“Gravitational field? I have it too!”
The Great Light Honorable Lord looked calm. A huge piece of s.h.i.+mmering inky-black metal appeared before him.
“Anti-gravitational field!”
The huge black metal vibrated gently. Then, an invisible surge of power rushed into Merlin’s vortex. The vortex paused slightly, and instantly broke apart.
“The Vestigial Tribe’s gravitational field device?”
Merlin knew that the Vestigial Tribe’s most powerful gravitational field devices could resist gravitational force. Merlin’s Golden Ray Armor was also capable of resisting gravitational force. It was just that no one had ever wielded a gravitational field on him.
The Golden Ray Armor was merely a combination of all the Vestigial Tribe’s most powerful abilities. Combined, they possessed a virtually unstoppable force.
Without the gravitational field, Merlin was not deterred. The golden radiance on his body seemed to s.h.i.+ne even brighter. He gave up using other tactics, and took a step forward.
“Swish.”
Merlin’s figure disappeared. Following that, he appeared in front of the Great Light Honorable Lord and, without any hesitation, simply threw a punch at the Great Light Honorable Lord.
“Thud.”
The Great Light Honorable Lord was prepared. The power of the natural order inside his body sprang out, melded into a fist, and met Merlin’s punch head-to-head. This was the formidableness of the third-grade ultimate existences. The power of the natural order inside their bodies had been transformed into an entire subs.p.a.ce. It was not the power of the natural order that had to acc.u.mulated bit by bit but had already been acc.u.mulated to unimaginable levels.
Therefore, even if they were to rely on the power contained within their bodies alone, the amount of the power of the natural order available to the third-grade ultimate existences was essentially endless. They did not have to worry about running out of the power of the natural order. Moreover, due to the long-term acc.u.mulation inside their bodies, their power of the natural order was even more solid.
Merlin’s punch was ineffective but he did not stop at one. He launched consecutive punches. Every direction was filled with the swing of his fist.
This was an attack of pure strength. Every hit would consume a lot of energy but could also easily kill a second-grade ultimate existence. In addition, this was an attack of tens of thousands of punches that came from every direction. It seemed like the air was filled with the shadow of his swinging fists.
The Great Light Honorable Lord’s expression grew grimmer. He also had many different abilities from the Vestigial Tribe but Merlin had the Vestigial Tribe’s ultimate weapon. Thus, in comparison, his weapons would not be useful.
Therefore, the Great Light Honorable Lord could only rely upon his own inherent strength. Even so, the Great Light Honorable Lord was a force to be reckoned with. The power of the natural order inside his body was acc.u.mulated layers upon layers, seemingly inexhaustible.
Furthermore, as long as the Great Light Honorable Lord willed, the Void Zone would concoct a ma.s.sive clout of the power of the natural order. The power of the natural order had been brewing from the very beginning, gathering its strength. Normally, in a battle between third-grade ultimate existences, they would not mobilize the power of the natural order. This was because if both opponents were third-grade ultimate existences, both sides were able to mobilize the power of the natural order, so such a move was meaningless.
Merlin, however, was different. He was not a real ultimate existence but merely a Lord. He could not mobilize the power of the natural order. It was only due to the Golden Ray Armor that catapulted him into becoming a mighty existence which was comparable to a third-grade ultimate existence.
“Thud thud thud thud.”
One punch after another landed. Merlin’s speed increased but the Great Light Honorable Lord’s defense was also extremely durable. The white light rays grew intense. Throughout this entire time, the Great Light Honorable Lord did not attack but merely defended himself.
However, it did not mean that he was not going to attack. Instead, he was gathering strength. In the Void Zone, the power of the natural order was gradually converging menacingly. The ominous force caused even the second-grade ultimate existences to feel powerless. Merlin, too, raised his head to look at the power of the natural order converging in the Void Zone.
Merlin also felt the incredible force. Ultimately, the power of the natural order was the most powerful force in the Void Zone. The power of the natural order that a third-grade ultimate existence had spent so much time mobilizing was certainly terrifying!
According to rumors, when the ancient Thirty-six Emperors had mobilized the power of the natural order, no matter how powerful the defense of the Vestigial Tribe’s dimensions, all of them would be annihilated in an instant. No power could withstand it!
While a third-grade Great Light Honorable Lord was far from comparable to the ancient Thirty-six Emperors, the power of the natural order that he had mobilized was still relatively horrifying. Regardless of Merlin’s frenzied attacks, it did not seem to disrupt the Great Light Honorable Lord from mobilizing the power of the natural order.
“Haha, enjoy the Void Zone’s power of the natural order.”
The Great Light Honorable Lord waved his hand. Suddenly, the terrifying power of the natural order exploded.
“Boom.”
Merlin’s figure was completely submerged under the power of the natural order. It was akin to being crushed by a gigantic mountain. For a moment, the destructive aura even overshadowed Merlin’s aura.
It was difficult to imagine that Merlin would survive this blow.
The power of the natural order surged menacingly. Any dimension that was grazed even the slightest, was instantaneously destroyed. The fluctuation of the power of the natural order rippled endlessly in every direction.
“Crack.”
Just the aftershocks alone had destroyed millions of dimensions around them, including the Great Light Dimension. Additionally, the destruction was unleashed by the Great Light Honorable Lord himself. This was because in the Great Light Honorable Lord’s eyes, there was only Merlin and the Golden Ray Armor!
Even if the entire Great Light Region was destroyed, as long as he could obtain the Golden Ray Armor, it was worth it. The Great Light Region could be rebuilt but if he missed the Golden Ray Armor, he would never be able to obtain it ever again.
For this reason, the Great Light Honorable Lord chose to kill Merlin no matter what the cost, to obtain the Golden Ray Armor!
Under the shroud of the power of the natural order, Merlin’s aura could no longer be detected.
“After all, you’re not an ultimate existence. So, what if you’ve obtained the Golden Ray Armor?”
A smile appeared between the Great Light Honorable Lord’s lips.
“Is that so? I may not be an ultimate existence but still, you can’t kill me!”
An icy voice reverberated from the chaotic aftermath around them, freezing the smile on the Great Light Honorable Lord’s face.
