Chapter 158: Good and Evil(4)
The Holy Pope subconsciously moved his body, and a cracking sound came from it, while the space around him cracked as a result of this force.
Although it was clear that he had not completely broken through the God Realm, having reached the quasi-God Realm allowed him to possess strength that far surpassed the Holy Realm.
Even if the First Sun King was still alive, he was confident that he could suppress him, if not kill outright him.
Feeling the boundless Divine Power that raged inside his body, the Pope, the fusion between the Holy Pope and the Demon Pope, couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"Sure enough, my true state is also the most comfortable.", he muttered in a low voice and there was some relief in his tone.
But then, a frown appeared on his face.
The Pope could sense that he had not fully recovered, and there was a sense that something was missing.
Soon, he understood what was going on.
Looking down at the countless wounds that had unknowingly appeared on his body, he understood that this was the result of the injuries that the Demon Pope had previously suffered, which had now been transferred to him.
Thinking of this, the Pope didn't panic, nor did he show any anger.
Instead, he raised his head and looked at the person who was responsible for this.
Although it seemed that his transformation had taken a long time, in reality, from the arrival of the Holy Pope and the destruction of the formation, to now, less than a second had passed.
In such a little time, Chu Wuyao didn't seem to have recovered and was still here.
Even, her True Form had been deactivated, and she had returned to her usual appearance.
The Pope was about to take action when he noticed a somewhat familiar aura on Chu Wuyao.
"Huh?", he exclaimed, and instinctively, he waved his right hand.
As if in response, the space ring on Chu Wuyao's finger shook, and an object flew out and rushed toward him.
This object was an ominous black crown with countless undead creatures that were surrounding a giant throne painted on its surface.
"How familiar...", the Pope thought and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face.
Subconsciously, he recalled the tiny kingdom on the edge of the continent, the place where everything started.
But soon, he woke up from these memories.
Compared to the crown's sentimental value, the Pope was more interested in something else.
He could feel that there was a trace of his past power remaining on the ominous crown, which was also the reason behind its extraordinary power.
Thinking of his current condition, the Pope didn't hesitate and chose to absorb it.
In his hand, the ominous crown started melting into a black liquid and instantly drilled right into his body.
As it did, a chaotic symbol flashed on the Pope's pupils, while his aura started rapidly improving again.
The already powerful Divine Power in his body surged, while the strength of his physical body improved accordingly.
Unfortunately for him, even after he absorbed all the remaining power, he was still unable to break through the God Realm.
On the other hand, standing below, Chu Wuyao didn't escape nor did she step forward to stop the Pope.
Instead, she looked at him with some curiosity.
Holy Realm practitioners in the Inheritance World were equivalent to Awakening Realm cultivators, and now, the Pope had reached the true peak of this realm.
Chu Wuyao could see that if he took another step forward, he would possess Supernatural Realm-level power.
At that time, he might even be able to break out of the Inheritance World!
Time went by very quickly, and under her observation, the transformation of the Pope finally came to an end.
The moment the Pope opened his eyes, he turned to look at Chu Wuyao and raised his hand, before lowering it toward her. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire
His eyes were indifferent and devoid of any emotion, looking like an emotionless god that was slapping an ant to death.
Facing this attack, Chu Wuyao felt that the space around her shook, locking her in position, while a shiver ran down her spine.
Inexplicable, she knew that she was about to die.
In her mind, there was no way to dodge this seemingly harmless attack, nor was there any way she could defend against it.
It was as if this slap had sealed all her ways of dealing with it, while also sealing her future possibilities.
However, Chu Wuyao quickly woke up from this feeling and regained her calm expression.
Since she had chosen to stay in this place and had allowed the Pope to transform, it meant that she was confident that she could deal with the current situation.
This was indeed the case.
Just when the Pope's hand was about to land on her and wipe her out, Chu Wuyao's body suddenly shook.
Three complicated runes emerged from her body, and for the first time, they appeared in the outside world.
One of these runes was red in color and dripped with blood, while another one was orange and was surrounded by bright burning flames.
The last rune was golden, and it was also the rune with the strongest aura out of the three of them.
Concepts such as light, holiness, kindness, and justice emanated from this rune and affected the environment around it, making the area around it seem like the kingdom of a god.
These three runes were the condensation of three of the Authorities that Chu Wuyao had understood throughout her cultivation journey, and represented the power of Blood, Fire, and Holy Light respectively.
After Chu Wuyao took a brief look at these runes, she didn't hesitate.
With a thought of her mind, the three complicated runes, each with an entirely different style, moved closer, until they finally overlapped with each other.
It was as if three different colors had been thrown in a palette, as the three runes started merging and forming another entirely different new rune.
