Chapter 204
They could feel the strain in his voice and it was obvious he was already in the son of heaven’s voice.
Gerald and Dillain stared at the distance and emotions welled up in them. Even in his final moments, the man still did his job as the emperor and their father. He still stood and protected the kingdom and his children!
“We wish you safe passing, father!” Gerald bowed a final time with Dillian before turning and leaving.
...............
“Go all out? As expected of the son of heaven, you still have some strength hidden in these final moments” Damon commended him earnestly.
He wore a confident look on his face but soon that look in his eyes began to change and soon, Damon had a deep frown on his face. He was sensitive to a lot of energy so it was only natural he would be able to detect something like this.
It was the soul of the son of heaven leaking!
He watched as the life force of the son of heaven used to fuel his cultivation and push it into a higher realm. It was a suicidal move that would temporarily improve one’s cultivation but this also meant their death is certain!
.....
“A decisive move. I must commend you for that. Not many have the courage” Damon nodded in agreement. He approved of the resolve of the man who is known as the human emperor and the son of heaven. Someone of this caliber should not be allowed to die the death of mere mortals.
Sigh!
The more he knew about this man, the more he liked him. In fact, all three of them were all men Damon held in high regard. They ushered in an era of peace and security for the human race. They may have done horrible things to the hosts but everything they did was for the sake of humans.
Damon watched with furrowed eyebrows as the hair of the son of heaven turned white with red stripes. His eyelashes and eyes were red, even his nails were blood-red. Two pairs of blood-red angelic wings bloomed on his back and on his forehead a third eye opened.
Buzzz!
Cawwwwww!
The image of a great phoenix appeared in the skies while the bright sunlight fell on the world, chasing away the darkness or at least a good portion of darkness.
Buzzz!
Damon stood with his hands placed behind him. His cold gaze was pinned on the shadow image of the son of heaven who has temporarily transcended into the angel realm.
This was an unexpected turn of events.
“Let’s have this final dance, young death mage. Allow this old king to school you on the true strength of the warlords” King Robert growled as his body vanished!
Xiu!
Damon’s eyes flashed dangerously as his hand raced forward!
Peng!
Peng!
Damon and Robert exchanged blows as fast as lightning and were quickly blown away, retreating a few hundred meters.
“This is?” Damon frowned with the green glow in his eyes. He was forced to use the strength of the werewolf just to match the strength of King Robert, a mere human.
At first, he was confused but as soon as looked at King Robert he noticed something.
His skin was rough and he had the illusionary scales of the Phoenix.
“The destruction pathway is what makes you a terror. That’s why you can walk around, destroying everything without fear but the creation pathway is different. We bring things to life, just like I have made myself the true Phoenix emperor!
Buzz!
Damon frowned at these words but he wasn’t going to back off either. In his opinion destruction and creation are all the same, what matters is the user and he refused to believe he was inferior to a man who just stepped foot into the angel realm.
Bang!
Damon stomped his feet on the ground and shoot into the air.
Snap!
Snapping his fingers countless green sparks filled the sky and descended fiercely!
Explode!
Explosions filled the air as a figure shot out of the explosion with his wings wrapped around him.
Swoosh!
King Robert waved his hands and his golden flames exploded fiercely!
Thud!
In the next moment, the old king could be seen sprinting towards Damon!
Bang!
He jumped off the ground and spun through the sky, turning into a fire cyclone that soon took the shape of a mighty fire Phoenix!
“Hmph! You rely on the power of your beast too much!” Damon snorted disdainfully and raised his hand, taking the hit directly!
“YOU RELY ON THE POWER OF YOUR INNER BEAST TOO LITTLE!” The son of heaven growled as his Golden light doubled in strength, slamming into Damon’s bare palm!
Boom!
Damon was blown back as he skidded across the skies while struggling to hold the enemy back! His eyes squinted and his hand twisted the heavens but even then it couldn’t break the son of heaven’s attacks.
Boom!
Blegh!
Damon spat out a mouthful of blood and his body shivered. He had no choice but to use his second hand to support his first.
“Listen to me, kid. That power all of it, every power you possess is a part of you. It’s all you and not some different entity, accept it all and fuse it all to create the greatest force your body can produce!” King Robert said as he threw another kick!
Bang!
Damon was sent flying hundreds of meters, smashing into his undead army but bright golden flames surged above, not even considering giving him a chance to recover.
Kill!
Boom!
Damon raised his arms to block but that didn’t even stop the kick from connecting!
Boom!
A twenty-meter-deep hole could be seen and within countless blows were been thrown. While Damon was a good fighter and had the experience of the previous lone wolves, the enemy he had to deal with was also an experienced fighter.
