Chapter 346 - Devouring Winged Serpent
The Snake Queen Caara that stood at the top of the Magus World stared at the golden figures s.h.i.+mmering with light as the ideology of the Celestials reached her heart with extreme precision.
They cared not how they were perceived, as long as beings feared and obeyed them, as long as they knew of their terrible power- this was all that mattered! Her furious expression softened as it soon became devoid of emotions, her senses catching the many Magi that were grouped all over the central base cl.u.s.ter around her as they prepared to fight against the two invading Celestials. Looking at this scene, something seemed to have clicked in the mind of the Snake Queen as words devoid of emotions left her red lips as her body began to bubble forth with power.
"So be it. [Devouring Winged Serpent]."
RUMBLE!
A red light shot to the skies as a skill was cast, an immense aura overflowing with power at the Soul Forging Realm was released maddeningly!
This aura held a significance that could be felt by every being around, as those standing at the Soul Forging Realm had stably begun strengthening their souls, the aura of power they released causing a coagulating pressure to descend down upon those that stood against them.
This was the power of the soul, an abstruse force that very few could grasp!
But the beings that the snake queen was up against held even more fearsome techniques that allowed them to use the Supreme Law of Fate, the numerous Fate Lines that they condensed on their bodies giving them the capability to inflict Soul Damage, as well as granting them a level of protection that n.o.body else had!
The aura of the Snake Queen continued to overflow as Noah observed her body begin to expand rapidly, numerous dark red scales that were meters thick enlarging at an alarming speed as this being began the transformation into a monstrous creature.
On either side of her expanding figure, two Magi floated in the skies as they looked at the Snake Queen"s transformation, their expressions those of unwillingness as they turned towards the s.h.i.+mmering figures of Noah and Athena, and even further above to the horrible Wars.h.i.+p that could disintegrate them and their entire planet.
They did not fear the two Void Realm beings in the skies as they were confident in their own power at the Soul Forging Realm, but what they feared was the actions these celestials would ultimately take once they killed the two disciples in the air!
They felt like an aura of death was approaching them as their gazes focused on the humongous s.h.i.+p that was barely discernible in s.p.a.ce, but their gazes were in the wrong direction as this would most definitely not be the cause of their deaths.
The two Magi activated their own Bloodline abilities as their bodies also expanded and began to change, numerous scales spreading as one held a fully black aura, with another s.h.i.+ning with a red light as their sizes quickly exploded to tens of meters.
The numerous powerful beings watching across worlds wore grim faces at this show of power, the illusory screens above their stars showing the majestic form that the leader of the Magus World had transformed into- and it was the terrible form of an expansive Nine-Headed Winged Serpent!
ROAAAR!
The air trembled at the resounding roars of its numerous heads as the [Devouring Winged Serpent] floated magnificently in the air, its nine heads waving menacingly as each one shone with its own color that symbolized expert control of multiple elements.
Many watched this overwhelming power at the Soul Forging Realm as they affirmed that the opponents the Celestials sent were extremely mismatched. They knew the power of the being called the Snake Queen from rumors and the spies, but they never witnessed it close hand as her grandeur was clearly portrayed in the illusory screens above the numerous stars. This was affirmed even more as her resounding voice that was laced with fearsome power rang out as if she was standing right in front of them.
"If that hypocritical grandmaster above doesn"t come down to face me himself, then he can simply come to collect the bodies of his disciples along with mine!"
Yes! The Devouring Winged Serpent floating in the skies knew that with the intrusion of the Celestials, she, along with all of her forces, would be facing their death today!
But still, amidst this terrifying feeling of unfairness and despair at a greater power coming out of nowhere spouting what seemed like bulls.h.i.+t in their ears, they could not do anything to stop it and had to simply accept it. So they would accept it...but they would also take down others as well, especially the disciples of the ones responsible.
The numerous eyes of the Devouring Winged Serpent focused on the s.h.i.+mmering golden figures of two beings standing less than a mile away from her, her tremendous body nearing 40 meters in size trembling with power as it was joined side by side by two slightly less fearsome Winged Serpents.
The two Soul Forging Realm Magi that were standing beside her had transformed into a Dark Winged Serpent and a Flame Winged Serpent as they each adopted their own spectacular forms that were just a few meters smaller in size than her own.
The Dark Winged Serpent had tendrils of darkness rolling through its scales as its body pulsed with menacing power, while the Flame Winged Serpent had molten flames spurting out all around its body, rapidly increasing the temperature of the surroundings.
An overwhelming feeling of strength released from them as slowly, the gaps in the skies began to be filled with numerous different forms and colors of snakes and basilisks that held fearsome expressions!
The forces of the Order of the Black Serpent had fully withdrawn their fear as they used the power of their bloodlines to transform into a frightening army of an a.s.sortment of fearsome serpents.
The skies soon became blotted with dots of beings from the central base of power of the Magus World, their numbers nearing tens of thousands as they ranged from Legendary and all the way to Void Realm. Among their ranks, the dead cultivators devoid of souls that were turned into beings similar to the Celestial"s punishers were filling the gaps of these ferocious Magi.
These were only the members of the Order of the Black Serpent that held power above Legendary Rank, with millions more that held lower power levels spread out across the central lands of the Magus World as they watched the unfolding events with uncertainty and fear.
Leading the gathered forces in the sky, at the forefront was a Devouring Winged Serpent at the peak of the Soul Forging Realm, her power seemingly being able to overflow into the next realm at any moment. Flanking her two sides was a Dark Winged Serpent and a Flame Winged Serpent that trembled with elemental energies of their respective bloodlines!
The most powerful beings of the Prime World that was known as the Magus World, the Bloodline Magi of the Order of the Black Serpent that all knew in their hearts death was coming for them in the hands of the Celestials- they had all fully prepared and transformed as their angered and despairing gazes turned towards the two beings calmly floating opposite to them.
In front of this ever so expanding army, the brilliantly s.h.i.+ning golden figures of Athena and Noah raised their weapons forward, their eyes s.h.i.+ning with confidence as they didn"t seem to think this tremendous force was anything much!
