The First Sun King flew in the air, rushing towards the place where the volcano was erupting.

Behind his back, a pair of large silver wings made out of Divine Power flapped from time to time and increased his flight speed.

This sight should have been quite strange, as Magicians preferred casting spells to fly in the air.

Since Holy Realm practitioners had trained both as Warriors and Magicians, they would also cast spells to fly and almost no one would choose to shape wings with their Divine Power.

However, the First Sun King was one of the few Holy Realm practitioners who did.

This was because, unlike most Holy Realm practitioners, his main profession was not a Magician, but a Warrior.

Even though he had reached the Holy Realm and could cast spells easily, the First Sun King didn't rely on spells to fight or fly but relied on his physical strength and his own Divine Power.

As the First Sun King flew in the air, he couldn't help but fall into thought and consider his next course of action.

In fact, apart from the fact that the Demon Cult was making trouble and he had to step forward to solve it, the First Sun King had another reason why he exited his seclusion.

The First Sun King had reached the peak of the Holy Realm hundreds of years ago, and now, he believed that he was very close to breaking through the God Realm.

That's right.

In his opinion, the Holy Realm was not the pinnacle realm of practice, but there should still be a realm above it.

The First Sun King had even guessed that the Creation God and the Destruction God were also beings that had reached the God Realm, although he couldn't understand why they didn't show up and only let their incarnations take action.

While the First Sun King was deep in thought, his flight speed was still very fast, and before long, he had reached his destination, the erupting volcano.

As he looked around, he spotted various powerful people who were using their trump cards to escape, but he pursed his lips and ignored them.

Instead, he looked at the volcano in the distance, or to be more accurate, at the two people who were standing above it.

One of these people was a young man who wore a long golden robe, while the other one was an old man whose eyes were red and filled with all kinds of evil emotions.

He instantly recognized that these two were the Holy Pope and the Demon Pope respectively.

At the moment, the Holy Pope was trying his hardest to stop the volcano's eruption, trying to prevent it from destroying the entire continent.

Unfortunately, with his plan being so close to fruition, the Demon Pope wouldn't let him.

With a wave of his hand, the Divine Power in his body turned into various demons, who rushed forward and attacked the Holy Pope with all their strength.

As these demons were merely created through strands of Divine Power, they weren't too strong and were unable to cause any damage to the Holy Pope.

But they were still more than enough to interfere with his actions and stop him from getting closer to the volcano.

When he looked at this scene, an evil smile appeared on the Demon Pope's face, but when the First Sun King arrived, his expression changed and he tried to take a step back.

Seeing this, the wings behind the First Sun King flapped and his figure disappeared, before flashing right in front of the Demon Pope.

With a thought of his mind, the Divine Power in his body rushed to his right hand and turned into a long sword that he subsequently swung toward the Demon Pope.

"Boom!"

Another demon appeared in front of the Demon Pope and blocked this attack, but it was also destroyed as a result.

Clearly, the Demon Pope was at a disadvantage in this brief confrontation.

Although the Holy Pope, the Demon Pope, and the First Sun King were all considered beings of the same level, there was still a massive difference in their respective strength.

As someone who had suppressed the entire world for hundreds of years and established the Sun Kingdom on his own, the First Sun King's strength was extraordinary, far surpassing the strength of the Holy Pope and the Demon Pope.

Now that his strength had improved, this difference became even more obvious.

The First Sun King didn't care that the Demon Pope blocked his attack and continued swinging his sword forward, attacking the Demon Pope with all his strength.

At the same time, he even had time to communicate with the Holy Pope.

"My friend, stop the volcano below. I will prevent the Demon Pope from interfering.", the First Sun King said.

When the Holy Pope in the distance heard his words, he nodded his head.

He didn't argue with him, knowing that he didn't have much time.

While the First Sun King was keeping the Demon Pope busy, the Holy Pope took the opportunity and appeared above the volcano, before he waved his hands and cast countless spells, which fell inside the mouth of the volcano.

"Boom! Bang!"

The sound of collision continued to echo behind his back, but the Holy Pope didn't pay attention to it, focusing on dealing with the volcano first.

It took a few minutes, countless spells, and many trump cards of the Holy Pope for the volcano to finally calm down.

Slowly, the magma that kept pouring out became less and less, until it stopped.

Seeing this, the Holy Pope breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the volcano's eruption had already caused enough destruction, it had at least only spread to the area around this place and would not affect the whole continent.

In the distance, when the Demon Pope, who was fighting against the First Sun King saw this, his expression changed and his red eyes flashed with a hint of anger.

"Damn it!", he couldn't help but curse and his face was filled with hatred.

Unfortunately, even though he was angry, it seemed that there was nothing he could have done in the current situation.

The difference in strength between the First Sun King and him was massive and he had already suffered many injuries during their battle.

How could he have the time to stop the Holy Pope?

Seeing that the Holy Pope was finished dealing with the volcano and his eyes landed on him, the Demon Pope soon calmed down and made a decision.

"Boom!"

After he pushed back the First Sun King, he urged the Divine Power to increase his speed and he rushed away.

However, the First Sun King didn't seem willing to let him leave so easily.

"Holy Pope, let's work together to deal with him!", he shouted at the Holy Pope and his figure flashed in front of the Demon Pope, blocking his escape route.

At the same time, the Holy Pope appeared beside him, seemingly agreeing with his suggestion.

When the First Sun King saw this, he became filled with confidence.

"Demon Pope, if you're willing to surrender and seal your strength, we can spare your life.", the First Sun King said and it was clear that he was unwilling to fight to the death with him.

After all, even though it was likely that the two of them would kill the Demon Pope if they worked together, they were bound to suffer serious injuries while doing so.

This went against his purpose for coming out of seclusion.

The Demon Pope's movements paused and a look of hesitation appeared on his face, as he seemed to seriously consider his offer.

However, just when the First Sun King thought that they would reach a deal, a discordant voice sounded from beside him.

"My friend, what's the point of communicating with him? Let's just work together and kill him!", the First Sun King heard the Holy Pope say.

Immediately, the First Sun King understood his purpose.

Although he and the Demon Pope were enemies, the two parties didn't have much conflict of interest.

As long as the Demon Pope agreed to seal himself, he didn't mind sparing his life.

However, on the other hand, the Holy Pope and the Demon Pope were mortal enemies, and the Holy Pope would never rest until the Demon Pope was dead.

"My friend, don't worry. With me here, the Holy Church will surely prosper-", the First Sun King wanted to persuade the Holy Pope, but he stopped halfway through his words.

The First Sun King felt a shiver run down his spine and his intuition suddenly warned him of danger.

Immediately, the wings behind his back flapped and he wanted to open some distance from the Demon Pope, but his actions were half a beat too late.

The First Sun King suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and when he instinctively looked down, he discovered that a small black dagger had unknowingly pierced through his body.

"Why?!", the First Sun King's body trembled and he pointed his finger behind his back, towards the person who held this black dagger in their hand.

Shockingly, this person was not the Demon Pope nor another practitioner, but the Holy Pope, the person he always trusted and his close friend for many years.

In his last moments, the First Sun King's eyes dilated and he felt that he discovered something shocking.

"You are-!", he tried to speak, but before he could finish these words, countless dark shadows emerged from the small dagger and enveloped his figure.
