Chapter 791: Guardian Goddess

As Gabriel's "Holy Light Kingdom" Domain expanded, the all-encompassing holy dark golden light forced back the dark green poisonous Qi like a tidal wave.

However, before everyone could catch their breath for even a moment, the aged giant face formed by the Law of Space in the night sky suddenly burst into a harsh, sinister laugh.

"Hehehe… What a truly wonderful Domain, actually able to forcibly purify my Styx Corruptive Toxin. But—"

The old man's aged voice echoed across the horizon, filled with contempt and mockery: "For a Domain released by a mere SS-Rank Professional to want to resist this old man's ultimate toxin, isn't that nothing more than a pipe dream?!"

Before his voice even faded, the old man's massive face twitched.

"Hum—!!"

The black space tears in the sky were violently ripped open once again. This time, what surged out was no longer dense swarms of strange beasts, but terrifying poisonous mist as thick as ink, faintly flashing with dark red lightning!

Within this poisonous mist, there was also mixed an ancient curse Law that caused the Divine Soul to tremble!

"[Undead Curse · Pharaoh's Chant]!"

Accompanied by the old man's withered whisper, deep within the rolling poisonous clouds, a massive phantom standing a thousand meters tall emerged.

That was the phantom of an Ancient Egypt pharaoh holding a golden staff and draped in gorgeous priest robes.

Within its hollow eyes, there was no vitality at all, only endless destruction and curses as it silently chanted an ancient, obscure incantation.

The sound waves transformed into countless dark red curse runes, smashing down like a torrential rain onto the Domain barrier of the Holy Light Kingdom.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Ahowu—!!"

Under the crazed erosion of the dark curse power, Abyss Dragon Xiao Hei let out a painful dragon roar.

Its massive body began to shake violently, and the dragon scales that had just healed under the Holy Light were once again corroded into charred blood holes.

Gabriel let out a muffled groan, his face turning deathly pale.

Facing the overwhelming curse poisonous mist, his "Holy Light Kingdom" Domain let out unbearable cracking sounds. The Domain's range was crazed compressed, forced back from several kilometers to within a hundred meters!

"Master… I… am about to not be able to hold on anymore…" Gabriel gritted his teeth, the six wings on his back rotting away on a large scale under the curse's erosion, while the health bar above his head began to frantically flash red light.

Zhou Huai frowned.

The Law foundation of an SS-Rank Professional was still inadequate when facing true Dominator-class powerhouses of this old era.

"Fall back, Gabriel. Leave the rest to me."

Zhou Huai let out a cold snort and instantly circulated his power.

[Ten Thousand Aspects into One]!

"Whoosh!"

Gabriel transformed into a golden light, merging into Zhou Huai's body.

The instant of Fusion, the massive Origin within Zhou Huai that had long surpassed the present world's Bottleneck began to pulse crazily.

He opened his eyes, his pupils transforming into dark gold.

"Since SS-Rank is not enough, then I shall do it personally!"

Zhou Huai let out an explosive shout, spreading his hands wide, and the vast mana value within his body poured out without reservation!

"[Holy Light Kingdom]—Open for me!"

A loud sound shook the heavens—!!!

In an instant, the Holy Light Kingdom Domain released by Zhou Huai's true body expanded outward brutally and roughly!

Onefold! Threefold! Tenfold!

The golden light screen spread like a shockwave, forcibly vaporizing the dense dark green poisonous clouds and dark red curse runes around him!

The Domain skill of an SS-Rank Professional, in the hands of Zhou Huai who had completed [Ten Thousand Aspects into One] and stepped into the Half-step Transcendent Realm, erupted with a power that was more than ten times stronger than the Domains released by those so-called SSS-Class Professionals in the present world!

Not only that, within this dazzling-to-the-extreme golden light, an incomparably huge morning star suddenly lit up high in the vault of heaven.

Bits of starlight converged, condensing above Zhou Huai's head into an illusory figure towering ten thousand zhang tall.

The female phantom was draped in a white robe, her face blurred, exuding an aura of compassion and tolerance.

She stood proudly in the Void Realm, her hands clasped together in front of her chest, surrounded by countless Seraphim phantoms, exuding a power of guardianship that surpassed the rules of heaven and earth.

"Goodness…"

Beside him, the Tree Demon Chun, who had originally still worn an expression of watching a show, instantly froze the moment she saw this massive female phantom.

"This… This is… the Guardian Goddess?!"

Chun's voice became shrill due to extreme shock.

While maintaining the Domain, Zhou Huai turned his head to look at her: "Guardian Goddess? What kind of thing is that? Is it a profession?"

"What profession! That was one of the four strongest beings comparable to gods who stood at the ceiling of the entire world back in the First World!"

Chun grabbed Zhou Huai's arm excitedly, pointing at the sacred phantom in the sky, shouting incoherently: "When the First World collapsed, we remnants all fell into slumber. I originally thought she had completely fallen long ago, her Divine Soul even dissipating into the spatial-temporal turbulence… To think that you… you could actually use an ordinary Holy Light skill to summon her guardian phantom?!"

"What kind of monster are you exactly?! Why is there Karma belonging to her on your body?!"

Zhou Huai looked at the emotionally out-of-control Goddess of Nature, feeling surprised in his heart.

One of the four gods at the ceiling of the First World?

Could it be that the class-transfer system of this Imperial Heaven Ancestral Dragon Rider or Gabriel had an extremely deep Origin in the old era?

However, now was not the time to dwell on these things.

"No matter who she is, as long as she can break the situation, that's enough!" Zhou Huai snorted coldly.

As if responding to Zhou Huai's will.

At this moment, the giant Guardian Goddess phantom in the sky slowly opened her eyes. They were two gentle golden blazing suns that nevertheless contained endless purification power.

She slightly raised her right hand and gently tapped in the Void Realm.

"Hum—!"

A circle of sacred halo rippled outward like water waves.

That thousand-meter pharaoh phantom which had previously been frantically chanting incantations and acting imperiously dissolved in front of the sacred halo like fresh snow meeting magma, unable to even put up a struggle or wail.

"Bang!"

Accompanied by a crisp shattering sound, the pharaoh phantom, along with the surrounding all-encompassing dark green poisonous miasma and dark red curses, instantly shattered inch by inch like a mirror, completely dissipating between heaven and earth!

"Pfft—!"

That huge human face in the night sky suffered severe backlash, twisting violently as it let out a muffled groan.

The entire space that had been forcibly modified into night shook violently.

"This power… This is impossible…"

The old man's extremely astonished, and even panic-stricken, voice echoed in the darkness.

However, this powerhouse from the old era was not comparable to ordinary people. Just a few seconds later, that twisted face in the night sky regained its calm.

"Hehehe… Hehe hehehe…"

The old man suddenly let out a sharp laugh, a laugh that lacked some of the previous arrogance and disdain, and instead held a bit more wariness and curiosity.

"Young man, you are truly very interesting."

The old man looked down at Zhou Huai condescendingly, the killing intent in his eyes miraculously fading away completely at this moment.

He did not continue launching attacks, and the restless space tears around him also began to slowly close.

"The Guardian Goddess of the First World… An ant of the present world like you is actually able to bear her power projection," the old man said, his voice echoing in the night sky: "It looks like that fellow surnamed Duan has kicked a steel plate this time."
