Chapter 297 - Time Stop, Killing the Prime G.o.d
Hummm...
The torrent of time stopped flowing as everything inside the torrent came to a pause, or rather... a full stop.
The G.o.d of Light, with the divine arrow in his hand, was also set still in place.
"No matter how powerful you are, you are nothing before the power of time!"
Ling Jiu smiled faintly as he grabbed the golden bow from the G.o.d of Light"s hand, and then drew it as he aimed the bow at the G.o.d of Light.
As a powerful supergalactic lifeform, even though the G.o.d of Light could be held still by Time Stop, but it will not be for long.
Just two seconds later, time began to flow again as the G.o.d of Light regained mobility.
Immediately after, the G.o.d of Light was shocked to find that his divine bow was no longer in his hand but in Ling Jiu"s instead.
"What"s going on?"
The G.o.d of Light was stunned.
"Die!"
Ling Jiu drew the bowstring. He was not worried about whether he could pull the bow or not.
That was a foregone conclusion!
The physical attributes of the Golden Saiyan Ape"s clone or avatar were extremely powerful, and it was also a whole level different compared with the G.o.d of Light. Despite all that, their physical aspects were not very varied.
Being able to draw the bow... was more than enough!
As predicted!
Woos.h.!.+
A golden arrow shot out like a stream of light and struck the G.o.d of Light squarely, the arrow biting into his c.h.e.s.t after a thud.
"How is this possible?"
The G.o.d of Light"s eyes were full of disbelief. He had not figured out how his bow and arrow had ended up in Ling Jiu"s hands.
"Second shot!"
Ling Jiu nocked the arrow and drew the bow again.
Wooos.h.!.+
This time, the G.o.d of Light reacted quickly, as his body quickly pulled back as he tried to dodge the shot. At this moment, Ling Jiu used Time Stop again.
Buzzzz...
The torrent of time stopped flowing once again, and the G.o.d of Light stopped where he stood as the second shot punctured through his forehead.
Right then, the torrent of time flowed once again, and the G.o.d of Light felt a biting pain coming from his forehead. As he reached out to touch it, he found an arrow there.
Moreover, the arrow had run through his entire head and jutted out the back just like that.
"What the h.e.l.l is going on?"
The G.o.d of Light was about to go crazy as he glared at Ling Jiu and growled. "You b*stard! What have you done to me?"
Looking at the furious G.o.d of Light, Ling Jiu had many thoughts in mind. The G.o.d of Light had taken two shots and had yet to understand the situation...
That was the power of time!
During Time Stop, the G.o.d of Light"s thoughts also came to a standstill, so he... had no idea what happened while everything unfolded!
"A dead person doesn"t need to know why."
Ling Jiu nocked the third arrow and drew the bow, and like clockwork, the third arrow shot through the heart of the G.o.d of Light, once again hitting a critical part.
Even if the G.o.d of Light was a supergalactic lifeform, when both vital points in his head and heart were punctured at the same time, he would still die.
"Why..."
The divine light in his eyes gradually faded as the G.o.d of Light looked at Ling Jiu and spat out the single word slowly, before falling to the ground.
"His Lords.h.i.+p... is dead?"
The G.o.d of Light still had not figured things out, and the Holy Father of Light, the top echelon of the Curia and the representatives of many other factions who were witnessing the battle from afar was equally stunned.
Yes, they were stunned because their time had not been stopped.
They had witnessed everything, and since they had witnessed everything, they were even more stunned.
They had clearly seen Ling Jiu walk to the G.o.d of Light, grab the bow and arrow out of the latter"s hand, then draw the bow, shooting the G.o.d of Light three times.
During the entire process, the G.o.d of Light had moved several times. However, at every critical moment, he had seemed to be disconnected, or rather, he had suddenly stopped moving!
Then, he died just like that!
"Why is this happening?"
The Holy Father of Light and the Curia"s top echelon looked at each other. "What did that person do to His Lords.h.i.+p? Why did his Lords.h.i.+p not fight back?"
"Was it a mental attack?"
"Perhaps a Dimensional Shackle?"
They could not figure it out!
They did not understand, and they could not understand, much less accept it!
"Even the great Lord is dead. Our Light Curia is done for!"
The Holy Father"s face was pale as his spirit was despondent. "This heretic will not let us go, the other G.o.ds too will not let us go!"
Hearing this, every one of the top echelons in the Curia became as white as paper.
...
After taking out the G.o.d of Light, Ling Jiu heaved a sigh of relief, and just as he was about to toss the G.o.d of Light"s corpse into his Inner World, but he was stopped by Leoux.
"Don"t rush to break him down. Let me read his memory first."
"Sure!"
Ling Jiu agreed immediately. An ancient monster like the G.o.d of Light, who had lived for millions of years, would have rich experiences. His memories were like a huge treasure trove that should be put to good use.
Soon, there was a result as they had antic.i.p.ated.
"Heh, this guy is a real antique. He lived for a good 75,270 years."
"Huh? The G.o.d of Light is not a native of Auguland, and the several other Prime G.o.ds aren"t either. These guys came from other planets."
"In Auguland"s belief system, the G.o.d of Light and other Prime G.o.ds personally orc.h.e.s.trated several catastrophes... Tsk tsk, the poor folks of Auguland."
"Found it! Information about the Nine-tailed Snake, the Nine-winged Snake, and the Nine-headed Snake... I knew they wouldn"t be killed for no reason!"
Ling Jiu had originally been listening quietly, but when he heard the news about the three snakes, he suddenly became interested. "Leoux, what happened?"
"Five thousand years ago, the three snakes accidentally descended upon Auguland."
"Sadly for them, it seemed that they had just been born when they got here, hence they were not strong. Even so, they quickly reached level of supergalactic lifeforms."
Leoux explained, "Their rise threatened the position of the four Prime G.o.ds led by the G.o.d of Light, so a war broke out."
"The final result is self-evident. Under the a.s.sault of so many Prime G.o.ds, the three snakes finally fell."
"The Prime G.o.ds of Auguland divided the bodies of the three great lifeforms, and the bow and arrow used by the G.o.d of Light were made from their bones and tendons."
"And?" Ling Jiu asked again.
"The G.o.d of Light and the others took away their souls and sealed them under Auguland. That allowed them to continuously draw upon Dark Bio-energy from the universe and spill it across Auguland, nouris.h.i.+ng it," Leoux said slowly.
"Lifeforms such as the three snakes can naturally draw and ingest Dark Bio-energy. Using them as an engine to draw Dark Bio-energy was entirely enough to nourish a planet.
"After all, they are supergalactic lifeforms."
"Is this the reason why the Gene Arcana on Auguland is so rich?" Ling Jiu murmured to himself and was somewhat surprised.
"Yeah."
Leoux nodded.
"Where are they now?" Ling Jiu asked further.
"They are scattered all over Auguland," Leoux said. "And the soul of the Nine-headed Snake is sealed beneath the Holy Mountain of Light."
"The Holy Mountain of Light? Let"s go down and have a look."
