CHAPTER 1034: CHAPTER 535: UNBREAKABLE BARRIER (PART 2)

The King of the Deep Sea, Asmonis, might cross space again at any moment.

Rod had already made up his mind; if that happened, he would have to use the power of the Dream Realm.

The Dream Realm was currently within the Chaotic Sea and would certainly be able to lock onto the King of the Deep Sea, Asmonis.

Of course, this was extremely dangerous. The Book of Knowledge and the doll were not awakened, and it was very difficult for Rod to manipulate the Dream Realm on his own.

It would be best if this doesn’t happen.

Rod didn’t immediately join the battle; his Blank had already been used, and his current Spiritual Energy wasn’t enough to initiate Giant God Power, relying only on the Star Shuttle, but its damage to the Black Hand was too insignificant.

The key was to find that Divine Sword.

It was one of the backup plans gifted to him by the Ancient God of Destiny, and although it was no match for the King of the Deep Sea, Asmonis, its power was extremely formidable.

When Rod was slapped to death, it also slipped from his hand.

Rod’s gaze shifted, and he soon found the Divine Sword; it was embedded at the back of the altar, seemingly undamaged, though its Spiritual Light had faded slightly.

Good!

Rod instantly flew over and grabbed the Divine Sword.

At that moment, the Spiritual Light surged, and the ever-changing aurora danced through space once again.

A piece of information surfaced in Rod’s mind.

[Destiny Divine Sword]

[Divine Artifact]

[Damaged]

[Low Energy]

[Forged by the Ancient God of Destiny, Yanosadag, it possesses the power to sever fate]

Before Rod could react, a burst of super strong Spiritual Energy hit him, a heavy strike from the dismembered hand arrived.

The Spiritual Light instantly formed a barrier, while the cold ice frenziedly grew on the dismembered hand, slowing its movement.

"Be careful! Rod!"

Olivia transformed into a mass of Moonlight, rushing forward and parrying the creature’s strike alongside the barrier.

Boom!

The Spiritual Light barrier shuddered but did not shatter this time.

Rod tightly gripped the Divine Sword with both hands, striving to resist the immense power emanating from the sword’s blade.

Olivia shared a significant portion of the pressure with him; her Moon Shadow Form was filled with mottled cracks, appearing heavily injured, but the Moonlight remained bright.

"Rod!"

Olivia’s voice was strained.

"Control that weapon; I can feel its power. Perhaps it’s the key to our victory."

Boom, boom, boom!

The dismembered hand began to attack wildly, emitting terrifying shrieks.

"It’s gone mad!"

Olivia also launched a counterattack, her blazing Moonlight Greatsword colliding with the dismembered hand, sparking horrifying waves of Spiritual Energy that caused the space to tremble with each great collision.

Under the Moonlit Night, Olivia was incredibly powerful. Her Moonlight Attribute had reached an unimaginable level, fighting on an equal footing even though there was a two-tier gap in Spiritual Power Level.

However, Olivia was, after all, human, her Spiritual Energy not as deep as the creature’s. As the battle continued, her Spiritual Energy gradually became insufficient, causing her to fall into a disadvantage once more.

Rod was slightly anxious; the only thing that could restore his Spiritual Energy, the "Spirit Tide," for some reason could not be used here.

[Star Mark] and [Spirit Realm Exile Curse Seal] were also inconvenient to use.

This dismembered hand was certainly part of the King of the Deep Sea, Asmonis. After much effort to trap it in the Material World, if he exiled it back to the Spirit Realm, wouldn’t that be setting a tiger free?

Rod knew that being anxious at this moment was useless; the best way now was to find a way to control the Divine Sword.

He took a deep breath, calming himself and linking his consciousness to the Divine Sword.

If he wasn’t mistaken, he should already be the master of the Divine Sword; otherwise, how could he acquire the souls of the creatures it killed?

At this point, he just needed to boldly command, drive, and dominate it.

Sure enough, when his supreme will descended upon the Divine Sword, it instantly merged with him, and his soul seemed to extend a bit further.

In the next moment, countless threads of fate appeared before Rod’s eyes; the mysterious aurora was in fact the power of destiny.

He tried to control this power, and sure enough, like a sharp blade, it slashed at the dismembered hand, severely injuring it.

Olivia instantly gained the upper hand.

In the eyes of others, the entire place filled with auroras suddenly seemed to receive commands, slashing towards the dismembered hand one after another.

"Destiny," Barrett marveled, "this is the power of destiny. The artifact in Rod’s hands must be the Destiny Divine Sword; we struck it rich!"

Professor Bins said calmly, "No, this is a gift of destiny. Its price has long been marked in secret."

Barrett frowned, "What do you mean?"

Professor Bins was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly shouted, "No, it’s not right, hurry! Run! I knew it, there is no free lunch!"

Rod was still focused on battle, unaware why they wanted him to retreat. The dismembered hand suddenly became extremely active, attacking madly as if merely wanting to snatch back the Divine Sword from Rod.

This thing had a deadly attraction for them.

Rod thought to himself.

Suddenly, he realized something.

The King of the Deep Sea, Asmonis, could he be crossing dimensions for this Divine Sword?

The King of the Deep Sea was at the upper level of the Spirit Realm, very far from the Material World. To cross so many positional barriers and invade the Material World was an extremely rare occurrence.

"I understand now..."

Before he finished speaking, a massive tremor resounded in the space once more.

The King of the Deep Sea, Asmonis, was coming again!

Everyone’s faces turned pale in an instant, just a dismembered hand was so difficult to deal with, it was utterly impossible to defeat the main body.

Ye Feng cried out, "How is that possible?"

Professor Barrett said, "Why... when in the Spirit Realm, it was clearly so far from its master, why would it cross over here?"

The Spiritual Energy fluctuated rapidly, and space swelled into a massive area as the King of the Deep Sea was crossing the Spirit Realm.

Olivia shouted, "Rod, they’re after that sword, give them the sword!"

Rod visibly hesitated; this was a Divine Artifact, albeit in a damaged state, but it had acknowledged him as its master. How could he simply abandon it?

But if not discarded, what would they do?

Just while hesitating, Mephit suddenly twisted his wrist, spreading his five fingers towards that point in the void.

Frost condensed in the air, the crystalline ice emerging from the air, covering the swollen space.

That was precisely the node where the King of the Deep Sea was crossing space!

In the next instant, Rod was astonished to see the space slowly smooth out, with the King of the Deep Sea actually getting blocked by the cold ice.

"Mephit, how... how did you manage that?"

Mephit’s expression remained calm as always.

"Cold Ice also possesses sealing properties. I used the space barrier to block it."

Rod was stunned, then followed by immense joy.

"Well done, Mephit! I never expected you to have so many functions!"

Olivia shouted, "Quickly annihilate it, then leave this cursed place! Mephit won’t be able to hold on much longer!"

Rod nodded and increased his attack intensity.

The power of destiny itself wouldn’t disappear; it only needed Spiritual Energy to drive them.

His Spiritual Energy was limited, but the dismembered hand’s condition was worse. While its Spiritual Energy was strong, its newly born soul was very weak, using Spiritual Energy inefficiently and struggling to withstand the three’s siege.

"Sister Olivia, it’s about time, create an opportunity for me."

Olivia agreed, raising her Moonlight Greatsword high, concentrating the entire Moonlight Domain within it, making it incomparably bright as if liquid moonlight contained immense Spiritual Energy.

Swish!

This blow, containing all her strength, transformed into a long arc and struck Rod.

"I’m sorry."

Olivia expressionlessly looked at the broken Rod, her facial muscles twitching slightly.

"I am a Doomsday believer."
