Chapter 747: Chapter 747 – The G.o.d of Shadows
The G.o.d of Shadows stood in the shadows alone. He quietly looked ahead with his heavy eyes.
On the ground below, many believers of the G.o.d of Shadows charged forward bravely, fighting and shouting that the G.o.d of Shadows would start a war. And at the head, the G.o.d of Shadows quietly observed the situation ahead.
An invisible enemy was attacking.
Below, the believers of the G.o.d of Shadows were not very strong. Most of them were civilians and some small n.o.ble families.
In the old and conservative Cardo Empire, only these people would easily waver and choose to wors.h.i.+p the G.o.d of Shadows.
Most of the large n.o.ble families were people who had benefits from the current state. They did not want to change the situation. They only hoped the situation would never change to maintain their n.o.ble status forever.
However, other than that, the small n.o.ble families and commoners might not be the same.
Any world would have contradictions and conflicts along with social changes. Under normal circ.u.mstances, these contradictions and conflicts would slowly vent out, causing changes repeatedly.
However, in this world, the bloodline overrides everything, causing these to be suppressed. Although the contradictions were forcefully suppressed, they were never resolved. This was especially true in the closed Cardo Kingdom.
This was like a powder keg that was on fire. A tiny spark could ignite the flame of riot, bringing chaos to this vast empire.
The arrival of the G.o.d of Shadows was that fuse.
During this period of time, the G.o.d of Shadows spread his faith in this kingdom and recruited believers. Within a short period, he had caused a great impact.
The effect was so obvious that even the G.o.d of Shadows was surprised.
On the ground, the believers of the G.o.d of Shadows were shouting. Under the leaders.h.i.+p of a few transmigrators, they launched an attack and charged toward the royal army.
And in the high sky, a flash of light was un.o.bservable to the ordinaries. A few embryonic forms of power appeared and rippled in the air, causing obvious fluctuations.
The G.o.d of Shadows turned around and saw a few figures standing at the horizon’s end. They were the Monarchs of the Cardo Empire. They appeared and were heading straight for the G.o.d of Shadows.
For existences like them, the battlefield below wasn’t important. As long as the top-tier existences obtained the victory, the disputes between the lower-tier existences would be destined.
In the past, there had been many fights and quarrels within the Cardo Empire, but none had ever impacted the empire. The monarchs of the Cardo Empire stood high in the sky, and no one had ever been able to match them.
Only now did their true opponents appear.
“Sigh.”
The G.o.d of Shadows let out a long sigh. His existence was shrouded in shadows, and his gaze was fixed on the few people charging forward, letting out a long sigh.
A powerful force erupted and swept forward. In an instant, all of them were suppressed.
The few figures that carried a powerful and imposing aura ultimately retreated. They were suppressed by the G.o.d of Shadows’ palm and could not break free.
The so-called Monarchs and powerhouses were laughable stock in front of existences like the G.o.d of Shadows.
Perhaps there were people in this world who could be comparable to the G.o.d of Shadows, but these people in front of him were definitely not one of them.
A G.o.d was a G.o.d. Even if it was only a simulation body at the moment and could not exert its full strength, it was still not someone ordinary could match.
After easily repelling several Seventh Rank existences, the G.o.d of Shadows sighed and continued to increase its strength to suppress those people completely. However, something unexpected occurred and disrupted him.
He turned around and saw a holy light appearing in the distant Cardo Empire’s palace. It was as if a savage beast was raising its head. A terrifying aura that caused one to be suffocated appeared and slowly dissipated from the front.
In the dark shadow, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly opened. There was a coldness in those eyes.
In the shadow, the body of this existence could not be seen clearly. One could only barely see its outline and that pair of eyes that seemed to be the size of the entire world.
Bang!
The two powerful forces collided in mid-air, producing an intense sound.
“What?”
Feeling his power blocked, the G.o.d of Shadows revealed an expression of surprise.
As he expected, this world was not that simple. As one of the three great empires, the Cardo Empire’s powerhouses were not merely Seventh Rank.
Even if it was only part of his power at the moment, only someone beyond the Seventh or Eighth Rank could block the G.o.d of Shadows’ attack.
“An opponent comparable to a DemiG.o.d?”
The G.o.d of Shadows frowned and was also a little surprised.
It was a little troublesome. The G.o.d of Shadow was a strong individual among the G.o.ds, and his status was higher than the other G.o.ds, so he was known as a powerful divine force.
However, at this moment in the simulation, he could only rely on the part of the power brought by his true spirit, so the power he could exert was limited.
It would be fine if it were just an ordinary DemiG.o.d, but the situation was different. The existence behind the Cardo Empire was not only comparable to a DemiG.o.d but also had a great power comparable to a G.o.d.
That was a Golden Holy Sword?
The G.o.d of Shadows looked ahead, his eyes skimming over the phantom of the Golden Sword.
In his line of sight, the Golden Holy Sword cut straight down, leaving a deep mark on his body. Golden blood dripped from his body and fell to the ground.
The G.o.d of Shadow was not concerned at all. It only took a moment for the wound on his body to heal. Then, he turned around and continued forward.
There, his enemy was still standing. The Golden Holy Sword was s.h.i.+ning with a dazzling light, carrying an aura of a divine being.
It was a weapon left behind by the divines. It was very powerful, and with the DemiG.o.d’s strength, it was enough to suppress the G.o.d of Shadows at this moment.
“Foreign Saint Child, leave Cardo’s territory immediately...”
A faint murmur came from the darkness and entered the G.o.d of Shadows’ ears.
“I’m very sorry.”
The G.o.d of Shadows smiled apologetically and said, “I can’t do it.”
“Then die!”
In front, a roar accompanied by a powerful impact was unleashed. Two terrifying Power of Laws that were comparable to divine power collided. A storm was formed in the aftermath, destroying everything and sweeping this place.
The two forces that were originally fighting on the ground had already stopped.
The battle between the G.o.d of Shadows and the Guardians of the Cardo Empire had gradually become intense. The people on the ground could no longer affect the fight’s outcome. Even protecting themselves had become somewhat difficult.
They put down their weapons and began to pray simultaneously, offering their faith to their respective guardians.
“Great ruler of the shadows, please suppress that false G.o.d and lead us to a brighter future!”
Among the many believers, a few figures were busy spreading the teachings of the Church of the G.o.d of Shadows and their G.o.d’s power.
These people were the transmigrators who came to this world with the G.o.d of Shadows. They were already priests of the G.o.d of Shadows in the World of G.o.ds, and now they were the backbone of the new church.
They led their believers there to pray and contribute their strength to the G.o.d of Shadows. With the buff of their faith, their faces turned fanatical, and their morale was boosted.
As for the Cardo Empire, it was slightly worse.
Although most n.o.ble families hated the faith of the G.o.d of Shadows, the knights who were summoned did not see the same.
On the contrary, many people were looking toward the Church of the G.o.d of Shadows, their eyes filled with excitement.
