I'm the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization

Chapter 543:

[O Goddess of the Night, you have only just attained divinity, I am by no means a rival that you can contend with.]

The Steel Throne is still roaring, filled with anger, as white flames surge, attempting to engulf the darkness. Yet, time and again, the darkness pushes them back.

Soon, it realized something was amiss.

It was filled with extreme panic as it suddenly realized that the newly-born Goddess of the Night’s power was slightly superior to its own. It was truly an unbelievable turn of events!

[This simply cannot be!]

[Impossible!]

[You have only just become a god, and yet I have spent so many years and sacrificed so much…]

The Steel Throne cannot comprehend!

He couldn’t believe it!

Mu Ling’s incredible power stems from the darkness that resides within her bloodline.

That was the power of the Outer God, a fraction of the great Obscure Changer’s power… If there were no "restrictions" in place, at the moment of her ascension, she would become a puppet of the Obscure Changer.

This world would become the possession of the Obscure Changer.

Long ago, Mu Ling’s ancestors banished the projection of the Outer God, sacrificing themselves to save World. Though it seemed like a success, in reality, a curse was secretly planted within the bloodline of their descendants.

The curse was also a power that hunters could not escape. They had to use it to survive in the dark world.

Bloodlines, passed down through generations.

If it weren’t for Bai Yan’s interference, perhaps, this curse of the Outer God would have truly taken root and sprouted, with unknown consequences.

Mu Ling would become a puppet of the Outer God.

That would be the last outcome the Hunter family wished to see.

The power of the Outer God is incredibly strong, which is why Mu Ling becomes increasingly powerful as time goes on.

Nowadays, Mu Ling has completely mastered the power through her influential Ultimate Ritual of "saving World" and "uniting it as one", the immense power bestowed upon her by the Savior, and her pure state of mind.

And so, she became the immensely powerful Goddess of the Night.

The balance was gradually shattered!

The transition of day and night in World started to slow down, and it became noticeably longer during the night.

The Steel Throne felt a great anger and fear, finally sensing that it was about to be overwhelmed, even on the brink of collapse.

[No!!!]

In the midst of negative emotions, the Steel Throne gradually regained the same… lingering sense of immense unease it had before becoming a deity.

That was the feeling of unease…

Suddenly.

He felt like he had returned to the beginning, to the most distant past.

How many thousands of years ago was that?

Looking up at the sky, he felt a sense of unease deep within.

At that time, World was filled with too many dangers and terrifying things around. The uncivilized tribespeople lived their entire lives in a state of confusion and fear, regardless of life and death situations.

In fortunate times, they would express gratitude to the Goddess of Light for her mercy. In unfortunate times, they would pray for the forgiveness of the Goddess of Light.

If there was a natural disaster, they could only hide wherever they could. If the monsters were to visit their tribe, they would have no choice but to kneel on the ground, crying and waiting for their impending doom.

Those terrifying things are extremely powerful… all of them are centered around humans, and the weak humanoid beings called "Noahs" are completely unable to resist them.

Praying for the protection of the goddess who created writing, hoping that her divine power can assist the clan…

It had always been this way.

Growing up in a haze, walking toward death, filled with fear, and in awe of nature…

It had always been like this.

For tens of thousands of years, for hundreds of thousands of years…

It had always been this way.

But is ‘it had always been this way’ correct?

I didn’t want it to be this way.

Then, I started to seek even greater power.

From studying various behaviors of Warcraft, imitating and delving into mysterious rituals, I opened up my extraordinary power through a ceremonial dance, becoming the first awakened transcendent among the Noah people who didn’t awaken naturally.

Using my extraordinary power to protect myself, the lingering sense of unease finally eased.

But that alone was still not enough.

The immense sense of unease in my heart never completely disappeared, tormenting me. I had to constantly improve and gain more power in order to find some peace of mind, even if just for a little while!

Creating tools, I wielded the steel… forging weapons and armor!

Everything I did was to gain further power!

Noah shared the secret ceremony that awakened extraordinary powers with more people. He taught everyone how to forge weapons, build defenses, establish tribes, and drive away monsters from the land of Noah’s people.

They kindled the ancient flame of civilization.

No progress! No survival!

I have never asked for any living beings to kneel down.

And as they looked back in the frozen moment,

All living beings had already knelt behind me!

Crawling, trembling, praying!

The Steel Throne finally reminisced about its past, its initial self, and its restless emotions immediately calmed down.

Anger and fear vanished into thin air.

Returning to its original purpose, the Steel Throne’s emotions calmed down.

[I have always believed that true strength doesn’t come from power itself, but rather from the heart that is willing to give everything, abandon all, and strive to become strong and survive.]

[The most important thing is enlightenment.]

[You cannot win, the Goddess of Nightfall, because you didn’t have the belief to sacrifice everything in order to win!]

Mu Ling heard these words and immediately realized that her enemy had become even more dangerous!

What happened to Him?

The Steel Throne’s voice, filled with belief and enlightenment, echoed throughout the sky. He immediately switched his approach in attacking.

Suddenly, boundless white flames scattered in every direction.

They all flew purposefully towards various parts of Noah’s world.

They were incredibly fast and powerful, each strike possessing enough force to completely destroy a city.

If nothing unexpected happened, in an instant, billions of people from hundreds of cities would be evaporated and wiped out.

Mu Ling could easily defeat the Steel Throne if she seized the opportunity, victory would be within her grasp.

Almost instinctively, Mu Ling exerted her strength to intercept the many scattered attacks, causing the pressure she faced to instantly intensify.

She didn’t know if the Savior could revive so many people, but she didn’t dare to gamble.

[This is a trial, and you are the one who has failed.]

[The Goddess of Nightfall, you have been defeated!]

The Steel Throne knew that Mu Ling’s pure power indeed surpassed its own, but it was not overwhelmingly strong, far from being overpowering.

However, when it comes to the skill and experience in controlling the immense power of "Divine Power"… she is definitely not on par with herself, who has become a god for hundreds of thousands of years!

If she were to disperse and then gather her strength, the speed would undoubtedly be faster. Given the opponent’s character, as long as she threatened with the lives of billions of people, she would definitely fall into her own trap.

If she didn’t fall into the trap, then it would be her own body that would perish.

But it was worth the gamble!

As one declines, the other prospers. By finding a gap, she could then inflict heavy damage upon this newly emerged goddess of the night!

Awaiting the Steel Throne, this very moment has arrived!

Bai Yan had been waiting for this, and now, at this very moment, it had finally come!

[Mu Ling, you are truly foolish.]

[But I will grant you the tremendous power to bear the weight of ‘foolishness’!]

The voice of the Savior echoed in Mu Ling’s mind.

This familiar voice was gentler than ever before.

The power of the Steel Throne scattered.

For the sake of billions of lives, Mu Ling’s power also scattered, but Bai Yan remained calm by her side, carefully investigating whether the Steel Throne held any dreadful trump cards.

And the Steel Throne, which was beyond anyone’s imagination, suddenly had not just one, but two new gods among its own enemies!

Now is the perfect time to strike!

Bai Yan took a deep breath and no longer hid his immense power. He reached out his hand.

"She was not without awareness, nor without faith…"

"Just our definition of awakening differs from yours."

"Our beliefs are completely different from what you believe."

"But regardless of whether our understanding and beliefs are right or wrong, only this power is real and not false."

He grabbed Mu Ling’s hand, which was already holding the hilt of a sword.

Mu Ling could feel the warmth emanating from Profligate, along with an incredibly strong power.

That was a divine power!

So that’s how it was.

At this moment, she finally realized that Profligate was one of the incarnations of the Savior of Babel Tower.

Another tremendous surge of nocturnal energy swept out, unreasonably engulfing Elene, turning the sky of World into a starry night.

The Steel Throne was almost torn apart in an instant, gradually crumbling and disintegrating.

The body that had been hidden within the white flames was ultimately shattered.

He couldn’t resist anymore; no matter what, he couldn’t have imagined that he would have to face two opponents whose pure strength surpassed his own.

The Steel Throne, about to fall.

His voice, for the last time, resonated within the hearts of Bai Yan, Mu Ling, and Maryse.

[So, you shall continue the battle from here on.]

Leaving behind only these words.

Steel Throne, an ancient god within World of Noah, one of the Rainbows, bravely faced its own demise.

In the final moment, it had no regrets for its relentless pursuit of power, without a trace of complaint.

Bai Yan and Mu Ling, of course, had no regrets.

Fall, oh, fall!

Rainbow!
