Chapter 238 Matthias’ Power, Descent

The Immortals nodded before moving their hands. Different colors of godly energy erupted together with the deathly black energy of the rulers before they all shot massive amounts of destructive energy upon the two of them.

Gail didn't even have fear visible on his face as he spun his sword, "Eternal Forge; Martelomier!" With his call, the sword shone with a powerful suffocating light.

"Reditus Actum!" The spinning sword then emitted a strong light in the shape of a shield. The Immortals and the Rulers visibly paled the longer they continued to attack.

"Can you please help, Matthias?!" Minutes later, Although the Martelomier is effectively deflecting the combined attacks of the enemies, their powers are still near or even equal to that of Matthias'. Gradually, the shield started to show visible cracks, and also started to affect the Soul-slaying Sword of Martelomier.

Matthias curled his lips up, "Although you didn't have to help, I still appreciate you doing so." He then lifted his hand, with his palm facing towards the Immortals. He gazed at them with coldness, so much so, that they almost lost their focus when he directed his eyes onto them. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m

"Fall." He uttered indifferently.

Boom!

The Immortals were startled and terrified when they discovered something; The energies that were holding them up suddenly dissolved, causing them to plummet down to the ground. Losing their focus, their energy also turned chaotic, triggering a violent backlash that almost emptied them off of the energy within them.

Blood trickled down their seven orifices as they fearfully looked at Matthias who was now above all of them. This isn't just a Creator, they all thought.

Matthias then turned his sights to the Rulers of the Underworld below, "Compared to him, I should be more ambitious." He then directed his hand at them and spoke once more, "Serve."

? "Gaaah!!" Immediately, a violent reaction came out from the four Rulers. Their souls tried to resist but there was nothing they could do. Feeling pain that is unimaginable to human conception, they visibly tried to move their body yet they cannot.

Soon, the Rulers stopped moving and stayed still for some time before..

"Greetings, Lord!" They went down on their knees, reverently greeting Matthias.

When the Immortals saw that, the fear in their hearts grew even larger. Inside them, they were already feeling the looming shadow of damnation upon them.

And as expected, Matthias finally turned their sight on them and did the same thing to them. They tried to escape yet no one was spared. And when the word came out of his mouth, the will of their souls shattered like thin ice, and they couldn't do anything as their minds were filled with his Will.

Hundreds of Immortals, with the rulers of the Underworld, were now kneeling before his presence.

"I-Impossible.." Baffled by the sight in front of him, Gail could only gape at the unbelievable spectacle. Having been taught by the Hell Emperor about the Rulers and The Overworld Immortals, he knew that their powers are off the charts, especially the Rulers.

Just the power that the Rulers wield is something that would already have the capacity to wage war and win against the entire Overworld, and coupled with their authority as the figureheads of the Underworld, their power is nigh unstoppable, with the unsuitability of the Overworld's nature for the Underworld's inhabitants and the treaty between Sanyi and the Former Hell Emperor as the only obstacles that prevents them from conquering the entire Overworld for themselves.

Alexander and the others couldn't even fathom what he just did, and using his Emperor's Will to command the people, their eyes stayed staring at the bright light in the sky.

Noticing that Gail is still gaping at the "enslaved beings", Matthias returned his sights at the divine light in the sky. He narrowed his eyes before turning to the Immortals, "Give me your cores."

"As you wish, Lord." The Immortals blandly nodded before literally thrusting their hands in their temples and taking out a bright golden orb filled with the essence of their divinity and Immortality. By doing so, however, they all immediately withered up and died.

Not caring about any of them, Matthias opened his hands and retrieved the cores from the dead Immortals' grasp.

The cores flew to his hands and gathered into a huge shining ball of intense power. Matthias calculated it to be at least a thousand times that of the energy that is stored within the white hole that Gaius has made.

After thinking for a while, Matthias nodded and thought that the energy would already be able to do the trick. After sending a fragment of his will and compressing the energy into a size of a prayer bead, he raised his free left hand and directed it to the mountain.

"Rise." He uttered. Mount Ianod then shook ragingly, and the palace on top suddenly crumbled. All of it fell down to the middle, where a huge hole was gradually forming.

With the mountain's continued separation was the movement of the entire continent. As the mountain parted, the entire continent parted with it, creating ridiculously long rivers and canyons that extended to the ocean. Cities were split, and other land masses and water bodies too.

At the center of the parted mountain, a bright orb rose and exposed itself for all to see. A powerful white light shone from it and continued to exude a strong and dominating aura over everyone.

Seeing it gradually rising to the top, Matthias then threw the energy bead in his hand towards the divine light above. Soon, it stopped in between the orb and the divine sky.

Now, Matthias had to become serious. Remembering what he saw while having a spiritual fight against Aealos, his conviction to reach that stage hardened..

At that time, overpowered by Aealos' spiritual pressure and attacks, his body fainted due to fatigue, but his soul continued to fight.

While fighting, he suddenly had a glimpse of a silhouette. A man who said one word and created life. That person was the greatest embodiment of Authority, something only a true God would be able to do.

At the next scene, he saw the silhouette slowly turn to him with eyes most unfathomable of all. Though unfathomable, it willingly revealed the powers of God to him; It's Authority.

Though he still does not have the ability to perfect it, with what that person said, he knows he had the ability to do so.

Now even more determined to do what he needs to do, he directed the direction of the bead's trajectory upwards.

The bead zoomed to the top, and…

Boom!

An soul-splitting explosion erupted as Matthias' will disrupted the order of the energies inside and bursted it from within. Then came the second hardest part in his plan.

Matthias lifted his hands and pushed all the energy from the explosion up. Gradually, a barrier that separated the divine sky and the Immortal Territories became visible to the naked eyes. The massive amounts of energy kept on assaulting the barrier repeatedly, successively draining the power supporting the barrier.

While all this is happening, Matthias kept on pushing all the energies up. He also stomped his foot down the ground, freeing the people from looking up. Now that the divine light was covered by the explosion of energies, the benefits of looking at the light were now inexistent.

"People of Divine Heaven!" Matthias shouted, "Return to your homes!" He ordered.

The sea of men that were surrounding the mountain then abruptly vanished and reappeared inside their homes. Their families rejoiced and joined them inside their safe havens.

The Imperial Descendants, on the other hand, wanted to help, "What can we do, Father?" Alexander asked in a panic.

"Return to the Imperial Palace!" Matthias answered, "Stay with your mothers!" He then swiftly waved his hand, sending his children and the Four Pillars back to the Capital with their family.

Having gotten rid of the people and retrieved his will that were protecting the entire Empire, Matthias returned to his task with an even greater strength.

Matthias' hands moved in an enigmatic way, before doing a pushing motion to the barrier.

A huge wave of godly energy rushed to the explosive spectacle, joining in the fun of destroying the barrier. He would need to act fast, before anyone from the higher realms wake up.

Gradually, the barrier was showing signs of collapse, and an hour later..

Crack!

Duun!

The barrier above the skies of the Ianod Mountain shattered, and started to expand.

Free from anything barring its entrance, the shining light fully revealed itself, and from it, came down another orb. This time, its shine could embarrass almost all the lights and stars across Matthias' known universe. Even the light source of the Eight Heaven could not hold a candle against the orb's light.

Matthias could feel the divinity and majesty within the orb, so much so that it is making him want to worship it. Fortunately, his mental spirit and soul was forged by the combat against Aealos and that silhouette's presence, giving him the ability to resist against the light.
