Chapter 864: The God of Heavenly Wrath, the Nine-headed Chimera (III)
Until then, Haoyue’s face was filled with pride. However, the pride gradually turned into fury. He was extremely furious, “However, never did I think that in that realm of fire of darkness, when all life and vegetation had been destroyed, undead creatures would actually appear. They didn’t need food or water to survive like humans. They did not even need light. And, they were actually filled with hatred towards me. They actually tried to kill the noble Austin Griffin. Under their obstruction, my rebirths failed again and again, while my source power was rapidly exhausted during the rebirth process. I knew that if I died on my ninth rebirth, I would vanish from this world forever, just like Creation. I refused to accept this. I utterly refused! Before long, I only had a last few rebirths left and I was attacked by those dirty undead again. I was covered in wounds. But it was also in that moment that a ray of hope enveloped my body, forcefully taking me to another world, a world filled with the aura of light.”
“At that time, I thought I finally had a chance. However, who would have thought that from reborning too many times, I had become so weak, and because I had remained in that world of darkness for far too long, I was no longer accustomed to this power of light. I could feel my life fade away. I could sense death descend upon me. But at this moment, I saw a pair of eyes, a pair of pure eyes. That small humans began to drip his blood on me, using his blood to change what I was not accustomed to, letting me emerge from the darkness gradually, purging that wretched aura of darkness from me. In the end, it was converted to light. I possessed his bloodline. I actually experienced warmth and gentleness I had never experienced before. These feelings were very, very pleasant. Afterwards, I grew my second head, a head of light, while my original head remained as the fire element. However, that young man, my master, had entered desperate straits in order to change my element. Out of pure coincidence, I actually channeled by own, noble bloodline into him, returning it to his body, and I formed a pact that even I did not know about with him as I experienced those feelings I had never experienced before. This was clearly the pact of the highest grade that Creation had created, a blood pact! I don’t know how that happened. Ever since I awakened and I recalled everything I went through with him, I really don’t know why the noble me would make that decision. However, I’m still very grateful for him. After all, he had given me a chance of rebirth, and also gave me the opportunity to become Austin Griffin. In the end, I returned. This young man who had given me this chance, which is you, my master, possesses the Light God Physique and is the wielder of the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation. He is the chairman of the Temple Union, the Divine Knight of Glory and Leadership, Long Haochen.”
“When my consciousness grew and took form with the ninth head, my body embedded all of the memories deep within my consciousness. I discovered in surprise that the gentleness, happiness and joy you brought for me were not emotions that originally belonged to me. This feeling really is novel. As a result, my master, no matter who I destroy, what realm I destroy, you don’t have to worry. I will never destroy you. I still hope that you can make me feel the same. I who have just reborn is actually afraid of something called loneliness because of you. It seem like there really is a lot, a lot of things different from last time. I love you, my master. In the future, let’s hold hands and travel Creation’s world. There will be a day when I turn all the realms into my world of creation, into domains that belong to me, the God of Heavenly Wrath, Austin Griffin.”
“You must find it very strange why I could evolve so quickly. You must thank my master for that as well! His growth would actually push me along. And during a few critical breakthroughs, he even protected me from the wretched undead, allowing me to evolve until my eighth head in the end. As for for final awakening, I must thank you as well, my master. It was you who brought me into the Domain of Eternity left behind by Creation, allowing me to find a seed that originally belonged to me, a see of the Tree of Destruction. From a certain sense, the Tree of Destruction is an important clone of my soul. After finding the seed, I finally completely my last breakthrough and awakening after this period of cultivation. The ant, the Demon God Emperor, was right. If I hadn’t awakened completely, it really would have been rather difficult to break out of their seal with just eight heads. However, everything’s become much easier now. There is no power that can stop me now. I must say, master, the realm you inhabit is much weaker than the realm that created the God-slaying Array of the Ten Earths and Nine Heavens. There really is nothing that can stop me in this realm. It feels fantastic to awaken!”
Thrum!
A translucent ball of white light was emitted from Long Haochen’s Armour of Eternity and Creation, forcefully blocking Haoyue’s pressure. At the same time, he possessed Haoyue’s bloodline in the first place, so Haoyue’s pressure on him was the lightest.
“Haoyue, will you be destroying our realm?” Long Haochen asked solemnly.
Haoyue smiled, “I’ve said so much. Master you should have understood a long time ago! I am the God of Heavenly Wrath, not the God of Creation. Since I have awaken, I obviously have to start with something. What’s so bad about destroying this realm? Three quarters of it is occupied by the demons you loathe so much anyway. Don’t worry, I will destroy the demons first, and then the humans.”
Long Haochen’s eyes were filled with pain, “No, you’re no longer my Haoyue. You’re not…”
Haoyue actually nodded seriously, “Of course. Of course I’m not that Haoyue that would only follow everything you say. I am Austin Griffin, the God of Heavenly Wrath! Didn’t you hear what I just said? Before I awakened, my body had eight consciousnesses. Each head possessed a consciousness of its own, but when I awakened, all of the consciousness would merge back together and all fall under my control. As a result, my ninth head is called the head of destruction, as well as the head of heavenly wrath. The current me has truly become the God of Heavenly Wrath. However, you don’t have to worry. The feeling that you give to me remains, so I won’t destroy you. But it’ll only be you. In the future, I will take you with me to destroy the other worlds. Though, I can’t be bothered with the other humans. I hate humans. Creation really could take pride in the humans he created. Even I, the great God of Heavenly Calamity, the nine-headed chimera, Austin Griffin, had been destroyed by the humans once. Though, that’s the only time it’ll ever happen. My master, you need to understand. Just watch as I destroy the demons that you hate the most first.”
“Long Haochen,” the Demon God Emperor’s voice suddenly rang out. He had said that by forcefully enduring Austin Griffin’s power.
Long Haochen instinctively looked towards the Demon God Emperor. Their eyes met. He could see many things from the Demon God Emperor’s eyes. The rippling from his soul indicated the Demon God Emperor’s intentions.
Long Haochen shuddered slightly and his emotions rippled slightly as well. He suddenly turned around and raised his Sword of Eternity and Creation towards Haoyue.
“Haoyue, I was the one who brought you into this world. If you want to destroy the continent, you better do it over my dead body.” As he said that, Long Haochen’s wings flapped powerfully. He turned into a streak of light as he lunged at Haoyue.
He was unable to imagine, he was unable to imagine no matter what that his most trusted, most important companion would actually betray him, actually becoming the one trying to destroy this realm. Haoyue was actually even more powerful than the Demon God Emperor and the demons. Long Haochen still had a ray of hope in his heart. He did not believe Haoyue would lay his hands on him.
Disdain appeared in Austin Griffin’s eyes, “My master, you still haven’t understood, have you? Do you really think that you can defeat that Demon God Emperor Fengxiu with your powers alone? You can’t even defeat him, so how can you oppose me? I respect you by calling you master, but do you really think you’re my master?”
As he said that, Austin Griffin raised his left hand towards Long Haochen. Immediately, a terrifying aura appeared around Long Haochen, actually immobilising him.
Austin Griffin said coldly, “I actually loathe the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation you possess very much as well, because that thing possesses a sliver of Creation’s aura. In the past, if it weren’t for the fact that you could borrow its power to protect me as I evolved to eight heads, do you really think I would let you gain its recognition that easily? It’s useless now. Allow me to destroy the aura that he left in this realm first.”
As he said that, Austin Griffin suddenly clutched his right hand and a ball of purple light shot towards Long Haochen like a bolt of lightning.
It was also at this moment that the ground suddenly rumbled violently. The Divine Throne of Doom and Slaughter erupted from Long Xingyu’s body, blowing away Haoyue’s pressure. With a flash, he lunged before Long Haochen and grabbed him, using his back to block Haoyue’s ball of purple light.
