Black King pierced through the incandescent light and jumped directly into the volcanic crater to escape the pursuit of Ink Pool. When he climbed out again, his whole body was red, like a red-hot iron.

Having endured the scorching heat of the furnace, Mo Ye's wound had stopped bleeding and turned into a hideous bud of flesh. What would be a fatal wound for an ordinary person seemed insignificant to Harrison.

extraordinary?

Demigod?

Nolan cannot measure Harrison by the standards defined by mortals. His physical strength alone is enough to place him in the realm of immortality. Mortals are bound by the prohibitions of the gods and should stop there.

The girl emerged from the ink pool, gazing silently at the strange creature. She licked the blood off her fingers, but couldn't detect any trace of power or truth, which only deepened her confusion.

The rare disadvantage made the Obsidian Emperor gradually take things seriously. A thin layer of red sweat appeared on his skin as he continued his straightforward, close-range, and reckless attacks.

This time, Harrison's speed and strength were greater than before, and the newly formed Moonlit Phantom exploded without even a chance to retaliate.

Nolan retreated to the edge of the giant gate with the flying ink, her petite body hardening its defenses with a metallic sheen, forcing her to confront it head-on.

Fighting head-on means giving up the advantage of the domain. Mo Chi aids Moonlit Hunter in various forms, and his elemental body can heal instantly even if it is seriously injured.

Harrison's body was even more astonishing, far stronger than the Dragon King's, and simple force attacks were ineffective against him.

It should be noted that this immortal divine body, nourished by the World Tree, is already capable of bearing the will of chaos. Even without using its powers, it is at the level of a main god. In the lower realm, only ancient monsters like Batian and Perish can compare to it.

The two clashed rapidly, engaging in close-quarters combat in the most primal way, with ink splattering and crystals shattering.

The ancient ruins trembled incessantly. Although it was just two tiny insects scurrying around, the intensity of the battle was so great that even the capital city below could sense it. Every collision left an indelible "wound" on the fortress.

The power of the Obsidian Emperor is terrifyingly immense; it's no exaggeration to say that it can no longer be described as human. What exactly allowed him to transcend the existing life system and stand shoulder to shoulder with gods with his flesh and blood?

The fierce battle at the summit of Dragonslumber caused a great uproar in the heart of the empire. People thought it was a wildfire eruption, the mountains trembled, the elements resonated, and the barriers of the High Plane were disturbed.

hum!

Another shockwave erupted at the temple, and both sides at the center of the tremor were pushed apart, remaining motionless for a long time.

The Dragon Sleeping Volcano beneath our feet roared and spewed out waves of heat from time to time, as if a long-dormant monster had been awakened and was about to bring calamity to the world.

As the night faded and the firelight illuminated the depths of the fortress, Obsidian Emperor stood motionless at one end of the daylight.

Harrison's eyes were lifeless, his body was riddled with wounds, black blood was constantly gushing from his wounds, and even his pupils had turned black, clearly having been completely devoured by the night.

A naked, silver-haired girl hid on the other side of the dividing line, shrouded in a dark curtain. Nolan was also forced into a moonlit form, his Hunter God bloodline nearly exhausted.

Dead...?

The beautiful goddess-king's expression was strange. Harrison was completely lifeless, having died from exhaustion. She had just killed the king of the Obsidian Empire!?

This inexplicable fight is hard to judge in terms of victory or defeat. Harrison chose this way to provoke her, so she gave in. However, the final fierce offensive had left both sides with no way out.

The Black King is indeed very strong, and he is a monster that Skadi cannot handle at all. Even Batian's chances of winning are no more than 50%.

The problem is what to do next. Such a bizarre plot has even left the God King bewildered and deep in thought.

Suddenly, the man who should have been dead convulsed.

"Ha... Hoo!"

Harrison gasped for breath, his defeated expression vanishing. He not only regained his breathing, but his wounds also healed at a visible speed, and his energy fluctuations returned to their peak.

It's as if nothing ever happened!

Nolan's eyes widened, his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Obsidian Emperor stretched his neck and clenched his fists. The scattered crystalline particles then formed a magical armor around his body, as if he had just finished his morning exercise.

Harrison muttered to himself, "I never thought I'd be killed by you once. It seems Blington was right; I've only just crossed the threshold of the gods' prohibition."

once?

"How...did you do that?"

Nolan bit her finger, a strong warning sounding in her mind, and an aura of annihilation surrounding her delicate body.

Nolan took out a spare school uniform from his spatial ring. A moment later, the charming Saint Lonza witch slowly emerged from the darkness, dragging a giant purple blade in her hand, exuding a murderous aura.

"I don't know, and it doesn't matter. Since I'm not dead, I'm going to keep living."

Harrison shook his head; the answer was that he didn't know either, though he was used to it.

Once again, returning from another world, the Obsidian Emperor did not lie; he had passed through the Land of the Dead, that despairing and cold world, countless times.

This answer certainly did not satisfy the beautiful goddess king, but she slightly withdrew her murderous intent and did not believe that the other party had revealed his secret just to tease her.

768. The strong act willfully and recklessly.

Even the realm of the dead cannot tolerate this man.

This is the secret to Obsidian Emperor's power: he is an immortal mortal, unbound by flesh and blood, unrestrained by soul circuits, and uncannily reaped by death.

That meant limitless potential, and even the gods' prohibitions could not stop him from moving forward. Every death was a trial for Harrison.

Nash Giant?

No, nature could not have created such a monster, and the common people even less so. So who created Harrison?

"Death immunity... what kind of creature are you, exactly?"

Nolan's eyes flickered; for a moment, he really wanted to end Harrison's life and see how many times he could die.

In contrast, the man was completely unconcerned and had no intention of keeping his secret. In fact, he never thought he would die today.

"Ha! I'm a monster, then what kind of pervert are you? This isn't the first time I've died, but it's the first time I've died at the hands of a young girl who's just come of age."

Emperor Harrison chuckled self-deprecatingly, his gaze toward the girl growing increasingly strange.

"Your source of power is not faith, nor does it belong to any divine kingdom."

The girl exclaimed in amazement, as if she had seen a new species beyond her wildest understanding, only this species happened to look very much like a human.

"They're just charlatans who deceive the world. What kind of gods are they talking about? Faith is the biggest lie those clowns have ever given to mortals!"

Obsidian Emperor pointed his right hand to the sky, sneering disdainfully. Behind him, waves of heat surged, and monstrous flames swept over the fortress like dragon breath. The reason for his death last time was that he did not use his soul.

"continue?"

Nolan gripped the enormous sword, several times his own size, and smiled slightly. It was useless against monsters and gods with bloodlines other than the Apostles.

“No need, I should go back to the Ark. Antonio is still waiting for me there, and the pressure he puts on me is no less than yours.”

Unexpectedly, Harrison shook his head and walked step by step toward the temple gate, his actions without warning and his cessation equally abrupt.

The Ark of the High Plane is another vortex center, where the Obsidian Empire, the Savage Beast Territory, and the Free Federation are locked in endless wars, none of them willing to hand over the new world to others.

If this continues, once the various forces find the spatial coordinates, more people may join the chaos at any time.

Harrison walked to the door, placed his hand on the massive door, and suddenly remembered something. He said, "From today onwards, you can stay here. No one will make things difficult for you."

"Huh?"

The Black King's words were astonishing, leaving Nolan stunned.

Grounded?

Why?

"What's the reason?"

Harrison chuckled, "Did Roland need a reason when he was buried with the Red Fortress? Did Sion need a reason when he swept through Huangyan Province? Reasons are the excuses of the weak, while the strong...act willfully and recklessly!"

The Obsidian Emperor spoke in a calm, condescending tone, yet his words revealed praise for the Holy Marshal and the Demon Lord. However, this could not explain his perplexing behavior.

"Then what was that just now?"

Nolan was both amused and exasperated. What exactly did Harrison want with her?

Consider this a reward for your bravery. If you had shown up a little earlier, those idiots below wouldn't have needed to fight over it.

Obsidian Emperor pushed open the heavy gate, transforming into a fully armed dragon rider commander, and his meaningful words seemed to hint at something.

"You can go anywhere within the Empire this year and do anything, as long as you don't interfere in their competition, but if you want to leave... you can't."

Harrison's attitude was unwavering and beyond question, as if the one who had just been defeated was someone else.

What if I don't agree?

"Then that's none of my business."

"........"

The man, who was neurotic, left on a whim, using commands but not coercion.

Nolan didn't understand Harrison's riddle, nor did she bother to think about it; she had no plans to leave for the time being.

The Dragon Sleeping Volcano hummed and trembled, awakened by the violent tremors just now. The crater next to the forge spewed flames and heat waves, and could erupt at any moment, threatening the mountains and the people of the empire.

But what does this have to do with the innocent Two Qiaos?

As the thoughtful witch left the dilapidated fortress, Obsidian Emperor had vanished. Moonstone Dragon Mother, waiting by the altar, was panting heavily, her body trembling uncontrollably.

"You saw him?"

Nolan smiled knowingly, while the distracted Daenerys didn't even notice someone approaching and was startled.

Lula gritted her teeth and nodded. The Black King didn't even glance at her, but she was so overwhelmed by the terrifying aura that she couldn't move.

"Why...why is this happening? What did he do? Iev sacrificed everything to cross the forbidden gate, and yet he..."

Nolan didn't speak. She would find a way for the Amethyst Dragon Mother to break the gods' ban and save Vivian, but not now.

It's easy to imagine that the Obsidian Dragon Knight who fought the Archangel back then and Harrison now are no longer the same person. That fearless man is no longer bound by the gods' prohibitions.

"roar------!"

Suddenly, the temple behind them roared loudly, and the broken walls collapsed one after another, as if some ferocious beast had risen from the depths of the earth and roared earth-shatteringly.

Lula raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with intense hatred and pain. Hearing that familiar voice was like having her tail stepped on; she let out a low growl and reverted to her original form.

boom!

The moonfire breathed on the temple, instantly melting the massive gates. Then, Daenerys Targaryen's enormous figure rammed through, rampaging through the temple.

This ancient ruin had just survived a calamity and was reduced to ruins before it could even escape unscathed; the Black Flame Fortress was completely destroyed.

Roars echoed throughout the temple as two energies collided with terrifying force. Nolan blinked and saw a black pillar of fire erupt into the sky. The awe-inspiring dragon flame pierced through the spatial barrier of the supreme plane, revealing the chaos of the outer realm and leading straight to the endless void.
