At the same time, but the crazy

Chapter 468 Wheel King

the other side

In the vast universe, the colossal, star-like body of Indra Deus EX is gathering terrifying energy comparable to that of a star!
Thunder!

That was golden divine lightning!
It was the final blow that Deus had spent ten thousand years reaping the faith and mantras of seven trillion souls, and which was condensed into the Causal Fortress!
The target is the crimson figure on Mars, on the verge of collapse due to rage—[Fou Tian Ashura]!
For the sake of his greater good, he was determined to completely erase Asura from the realm of cause and effect!
"End it, Ashura!!"

The voice of Indra Deus resounded through the starry sky like a divine oracle, carrying an unquestionable majesty and coldness.

However, just as it was about to launch...

At the heart of the Fortress of Cause and Effect, where the Priestess of Truth resides, an explosion suddenly erupts from Misra's secret chamber.

Without its core, the immense energy it had accumulated began to dissipate!

"Damn it! Yaksha!!! Why?!"

Deus was furious; at that moment, there was only one person capable of doing such a thing.

"This... can no longer be called righteousness..."

On the other side, as if sensing Deus's question, Yaksha, who was holding Misra, murmured.

He once believed that sacrifice was necessary to achieve the greater good, and for this he did not hesitate to betray his family.

But now it seems that this is not the case...

"hateful!"

Deus was furious, but the die was cast and he had no choice but to proceed.

Even with only 60% of its power, it was enough to destroy Asura!

The next moment, lightning tore through the universe and struck Asura.

And just as the world-destroying thunder was about to strike Asura...

A purple figure, like a ghost, instantly traversed the distance of space and appeared in front of [Fou Tian·Ashura].

"Huh? How is that possible? Where's Ocas?"

Deus was taken aback when he saw Zhang Qi appear, because he should have sent Ocas to stop this guy.
"[Heavenly Wheel Saint King]..."

The next moment, Zhang Qi slowly raised his arm, his voice low, calling out the name of the treasure.

Om-! ! !
The purple halo of the [Heavenly Wheel Saint King] behind him suddenly burst forth with dazzling brilliance!

An indescribable power, beyond comprehension and even beyond the concept of "mantra," surged forth from the halo.

There were no earth-shattering energy fluctuations.

It also lacked any terrifying, world-destroying power.

The world-destroying thunderbolt simply vanished peacefully...

"what?!"

Deep within the universe, within the fortress of cause and effect.

For the first time, a look of shock, even disbelief, appeared on Indra Deus's majestic face!

“This…this is impossible!!”

There was a tremor in his voice, a hint of panic, a trace of...

fear? !
What...what kind of power is this?!

He couldn't understand it!
That's unacceptable!
He had been preparing for this moment, for this so-called "great cause," for twelve thousand years!

The souls of seven trillion humans were sacrificed!

It took countless hours and effort!
That's how they created the [Causal Fortress], which is powerful enough to rival, and even surpass, the will of the planet!
Only then did they obtain this power sufficient to manipulate cause and effect and judge all things...

"Divine power!"
But now!
What he was so proud of, what he regarded as absolute truth and absolutely invincible power!
actually……

He was actually defeated by a tiny human being, an "ant" he had never considered worthy of his attention...

Easily...erased...

Ten thousand years of faith, ten thousand years of perseverance, ten thousand years of effort...

At this moment, it all seemed like a huge joke!

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!!!"

Enraged, Indra Deus completely lost his composure and reason.

He frantically channeled the power of his inner mantras, like a gambler who had lost everything and was making a desperate gamble.

The golden lightning, even more violent and turbulent, and even beginning to distort space, poured down on Zhang Qi like a flood bursting its banks!

He will crush everything!
He wants to destroy everything!
He wants to prove it!

He's right!
He is the only true god in this world!
however……

Faced with Deus's last desperate struggle.

Zhang Qi's expression remained calm, almost cold.

If Deus could be considered righteous before, he is now nothing more than a despicable villain.

"It has ended."

He said calmly, slowly raising his other hand.

Om-! ! !
The Heavenly Wheel Saint King's halo spun once more, and the power of his mantra erupted like a volcano!
This time, what he held in his hand was no longer a knife.

Instead, it was a... alien halberd!

The halberd is engraved with countless mysterious and complex runes, exuding a terrifying aura of destruction.

This is the ultimate weapon of the Asura Armor: the Asura Purgatory Halberd!
Then came...

"Gods and Demons... Annihilation Cleave".

There are no fancy starting moves.

There was also no earth-shattering accumulation of energy.

He simply swung the halberd in his hand.

Swish-! ! !
A purple blade of light, seemingly capable of tearing apart heaven and earth and severing cause and effect, suddenly ripped through the void!

Silently.

Yet it was unstoppable!

The golden lightning, powerful enough to destroy stars, was like paper before that purple blade of light, instantly torn apart, severed, and...

"Annihilation!"
follow.

The purple light blade surged upwards with unstoppable force, cleaving through space, cleaving through the universe, cleaving through...

That colossal [Indra. Deus EX], as vast as a star and as majestic as a deity!
Pfft——! ! !
It was as easy as a sharp blade cutting through tofu, without any resistance.

A purple light blade descended from the center of Indra Deus EX's head, severing his enormous body along with the halo behind him.

silence.

Deathly silence.

The entire universe seemed to fall silent at that moment.

Only the slowly dissipating purple light blade, and...

The image of Indra Deus EX's two enormous halves slowly falling from the universe.

"Impossible..." "This...this is impossible..."

"My...my sense of righteousness..."

From within the broken body came Deus's voice, filled with disbelief, despair, and...

He muttered to himself, unwilling to accept the situation.

He couldn't believe it.

That's unacceptable.

He had spent twelve thousand years, gambling everything for this "righteous cause".

It's unbelievable that it would be done in such a way...

Such an absurd, such a ridiculous method...

The curtain falls?

With endless doubts, resentment, and final confusion.

Once the supreme ruler of the divine kingdom, looking down upon all living beings, Deus, the head of the Seven Stars...

They have completely lost their voice.

Boom boom boom——!!!
Without the support of its power source, the enormous causal fortress began to collapse and disintegrate.

It dissipated as energy and fell onto Earth.

And just then.

A streak of blue light shot out from the collapsed fortress.

It was the Yaksha who was holding Misra...

"Asura..."

Yaksha, carrying Misra, landed on the scorched earth of Mars.

He stared at the crimson figure ahead with a complicated expression, and...

Standing opposite Asura, Zhang Qi held a purple halberd and wore Asura armor.

"father!"

Just then, a child's innocent voice broke the silence.

Misra broke free from Yaksha's embrace and ran towards Ashura with small steps.

"Daddy! Daddy! Is that you? Is it really you?!"

Her little face was filled with surprise, excitement, and...

Worry.

Because she saw it.

His own father was in an extremely unstable state at the moment.

Crimson energy burned and pulsed on his body like flames, as if it would get out of control at any moment and completely devour him.

That is the power of [Fou Tian Asura].

That was beyond limits, even beyond one's own control...

The power of “anger”!

“Mi...Sila…”

Hearing his daughter's call, Ashura, who should have gone berserk, stopped.

He slowly turned his head to look at his daughter running towards him, his body frozen in place as if he had been frozen in place.

"Dad! No! Don't let it become like that!"
The battle is over!!

Misra ran up to Ashura and hugged him tightly.

My daughter's warmth, my daughter's call, my daughter's tears...

Like icy spring water, it extinguished the raging fire in Asura's heart.

He lowered his head and looked at his daughter, who was holding him tightly. His bloodshot eyes finally regained their clarity.

"Misra..."

I'm sorry... I made you cry..."

Ashura stretched out his enormous hand and gently stroked his daughter's hair, his voice low and tender.

however……

It was in this warm and cozy atmosphere.

A tiny, yet chilling trace...

A sense of unease quietly descended.

Golden threads.

As if appearing out of thin air, it wrapped around everyone present without warning.

Asura.

Misra.

Yaksha.

even……

Including Zhang Qi!

The sudden turn of events stunned everyone present.

No matter how hard Ashura and Yaksha struggled, they could not break free from those seemingly thin but incredibly tough golden threads.

"What is this?!"

Ashura roared, desperately trying to break free of his restraints, but to no avail.

Those golden threads seemed to possess some kind of mysterious power, tightly binding their movements and even suppressing the power of their inner mantras to the extreme.

"Ugh……"

Zhang Qi sighed, shook his head helplessly, and slowly raised his head to look at his shoulder.

There.

Suddenly, one appeared...

It's all gold...

spider.

The spider's body, as if cast in gold, shimmered with a metallic luster. Its eight slender legs, like the most precise mechanical parts, were both elegant and deadly.

The most chilling thing is...

On the spider's back, there were countless tiny, densely packed spiders...

"Eye"!
Those eyes, of varying sizes and shapes, like jewels set on the spider's back, were all staring at him.
