Lord Shadow

Chapter 1658: Variable



Azief keep floating there, bathed in lightning bolts.

The lightning bolts that attacked him either exploded when come into contact with him or deflected to other places.

One of them was deflected and hits an asteroid belt and the entire asteroid belt was pulverized turning into nothingness

It shows the power of those lightning bolts. But it also shows the defense of Azief body

No matter what kind of thunderbolts or thunderous sound that the clouds made against him, he was motionless, standing like some kind of divine statue.

His eyes is still close, and his face show a kind of calmness.

BOOOM!

Another sound echoes, this time it echoes across the Universe

And the clouds usher into a new transformation. Before there were tens of thousands of lightning bolt falling toward Azief.

Now, those lightning bolts are transforming.

The face that appears on the clouds is also looking. Azief is still closing his eyes.

His Divine Sense could sense the changes in the clouds but he refuse to opens his eyes.

He refuse to be consumed by confusion because of that face.

He focused his mind to only think about the clouds and tries to divine the transformation of the punishment

Azief did not see it with his eyes but Hikigaya and Jean could see it. There is all kinds of beast that is coming down from the clouds.

It is beasts shaped by the punishment thunder. Shaping the elements is not hard for any Divine Comprehension realm leveler.

It is not a hassle at all.

Instead, it is very easy to shape the element into any shape they want.

All it needs is a little bit of imagination, a bit of magic and a bit of hand waving and you could shape any elements and laws into whatever you want

However, the clouds of tribulation did not simply shape the thunder bolts and send it down. It also seems to retain the ability and power of the beast it emulates

Dragons in many of the mystical civilization that both Jean and Hikigaya encounters have inherent ability of using the elements especially the element of the sky, like thunder and rain. Maybe that is also why many earth myths about the dragon have a bit of them having dominion over the sky

And that is what they felt when they see the thunder dragons rushing down from the heaven, charging toward Death Monarch.

And these dragons are not one or two but dozens of them

Some of them look like oriental dragons with small feet and claws, flying with clouds around them

Some look like western dragon with bulging belly, looking more like a dinosaur with large wings, the clouds of tribulation swirling around their bodies like some kind of protective force field

Some are dragons that appears lizard like with body that is akin of griffin. All kinds of dragon seems to appears.

But there is not only dragons but also tigers, phoenixes, serpents, wolves, tigers, centipedes, scorpions

All of them assume this beastly form and retain these beasts' innate characteristic. That is not the only thing that shocked them

It is the sheer amount of these beast attacking Death Monarch

Each of them descend, bringing with them the wrath of heaven, clouds of tribulation is rolling around them, wind and thunders followed behind them

"The initial starting attack is already this powerful" Jean sighed and shakes his head

It is hard to imagine how powerful the following ones would be

BOOOM!

BOOOM!

While Hikigaya and Jean is looking at this, the ten thousand beasts have begun descending. They uses their claws, their tails, their furs, their scales, their teeth, everything they have, everything they could do and let it out toward Azief

BOOOM!

Another sound of explosion shakes the dark space and the ripples push away the space dust, the gravitational force is flipped and the force field that maintain certain normal operation of the world collapse almost immediately.

This kind of battle involves laws and concepts, intangible things and it does not make sense to view it with established fact of nature.

It is like these beasts all went crazy, berserk all at the same time, the killing aura around them solidified and the aura distorts the dark space around them

This scene is truly beautiful, truly magnificent, and truly terrifying. Oen could see the dark space bright like there is another sky and there is another sun

But these light all come from the clashes between Azief and the Will of the Universe. Their mystical abilities created light when they should be none.

If even black holes could not suck this light, does it mean it is light? No, it is a kind of energy, that is beyond reality.

When one reaches this level, the kind of magic and the kind of effect it has upon reality exceed

any rules and laws that should exist.

And that is what happens right now.

The beast all attack Azief body. If not for the energy and light that is coming from his being, it would be hard to notice him amidst the swarming of so many beats.

Azief himself is now in his titanic form, growing larger as the second passes by.

He did not evade, he did not resist, he is still closing his eyes and he let these beasts attack

him

The dragons' roars and from its mouth, blast of energy is shot out.

The tigers' claws towards him, the griffins tries to take a bite out of his flesh, the serpent tries

to bite him, the scorpions tries to sting him

All of them did this in this chaotic battle situation. And what happens was something

shocking.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

None of the attack could even touches Death Monarch skin.

Jean and Hikigaya could see all of these battle situations because of their terrifying high level

of Divine Sense.

Without it, to the eyes of the weak, this would look like a jumbled mess of beast rushing

toward their death

They could not see that when the dragon shot out his energy blast, there is a kind of laws that reflect back the energy blast, blasting that dragon into pieces of atoms.

They could not see when the tiger claws toward Death Monarch, its claw broke, and the rebound force of backlash causes that gigantic tiger made of thunder to explode into arcs of electricity and turns to energy again, returning back to the clouds of tribulation

Azief eyes did not miss these

"It returns back and strengthening back the tribulations. Like sending a data back to the main server" he thought to himself.

Amazingly enough, he could remain so calm even under such bombardment and mass assault Before he could make any more pondering on this matter, he is attack again.

When the griffin tries to peck at Death Monarch flesh, its beak break and the force causes the

griffin to explode instantly.

The serpent before it could even bite Death Monarch disintegrated like it was corroded by some kind of force of time. It is the same for all the beast.

Even though they are already enhanced with the tribulation cloud's ability and with its innate characteristic bestowed upon them, they could not even make a scratch on Death Monarch

body

"It is just like before" Jean suddenly said and Hikigaya nodded with his forehead frowning.

They notices it

The attack keep on coming but instead of Death Monarch getting weaker, he is getting stronger. The absorption of energy around him has also increases, causing whirlpools of

energy to form around his body

His vital force become stronger

Both of them have seen this before. It was like the last time when Azief was also punished by

the Heavenly Will.

Everyone thought that him being attacked and his loss of vitality means he is dead.

But instead, he becomes stronger.

How similar it is now to that scene years ago?

"He is forcing the Will of the Universe to acknowledge him. What a crazy man!"

Hikigaya chuckles at this. The easiest way to break through the tribulation is to follow the

way of the heaven

It might seem like compromising but it is not. Cultivating power like these does not mean you

have to go against the world

The way of heaven is called the way of heaven for a reason. It is the orthodox way of

existence.

The Way of Heaven protects the world they inhabits.

Worlds that have magical powers, especially powerful magical energy usually would have a

will of its own.

Earth before the All Source might not have such a Will.

But Hikigaya also had been researching this matter for the past few years.

And he concludes that while Earth itself does not have a working Will of its own in the past,

this does not mean that it did not have this unconscious reaction, even before the World Orb

landed on Earth

Hikigaya believe that the world acted when the inhabitants of the world harm it.

Natural disaster are Earth way of telling the beings living in it that they are doing something

wrong

But these actions are involuntary and unconscious. It is not like Earth is angry or has a Will of its own.

But when the World Orb enters Earth for the first time, it created an impetus for a Will to be

born.

And this will protect only Earth. This is the Heavenly Will. It would promote anything that

would aid and strengthen Earth

And it is merciless.

At least that is how it should be.

Death Monarch Azief however break this rule

Death Monarch successful usurpation of the Heavenly Will created a variable.

A big variable that have changed the trajectory of the Heavenly Will of Earth
