Chapter 179: The Destruction of the Fallen Temple Begins
"So... so many people, all dead?" Yegis still couldn't believe it as he looked at Amiya.
So many powerful beings, enough to sweep through many races in the Divine Realm, yet they had all died in a small world. Yegis couldn't accept this outcome.
Amiya nodded. Although she didn't want to admit it, they had indeed lost that many people.
"How many strong beings were in that small world? Could there have been a Deity Emperor?" Belinda asked with a frown.
Amiya shook her head. "All those from our Fallen Temple were killed by a single person. This person's strength has likely reached the level of a Deity Emperor."
Hearing this, Yegis and Belinda both became serious. Matters involving a Deity Emperor were no small affair. Moreover, the Fallen Temple had suffered such heavy losses—it was not a trivial issue.
"Who is this person you mentioned in your three-day challenge...?" Belinda asked.
"It was a human named Sylvus. He said that in three days, he would come to destroy our Fallen Temple. It was also him who wiped out our Fallen Temple's warriors," Amiya said coldly.
"A human? I didn't expect a human to be so strong," Yegis said with surprise.
Although there were humans in the Divine Realm, they didn't have much power. Most of them were at the bottom, considered as ants. Now, a powerful human had emerged, and this surprised Yegis.
"Even if he comes, your Fallen Temple still has so many Deity Sovereigns and Deity Emperors. Why fear him? Why call us over?" Belinda asked.
Amiya shook her head. "Since he dared to say he would destroy our Fallen Temple, he must have powerful means. Just in case, I could only ask the two of you to come."
Belinda and Yegis nodded. Amiya had a point. They believed that this Sylvus must understand the strength of the Fallen Temple, but even so, he still threatened to destroy it, which meant caution was necessary.
"Interesting. Today is the day of the three-day challenge. I'd like to see what's so special about this Sylvus," Yegis said with a cold smile.
Although the situation at the Fallen Temple was surprising, he still didn't take Sylvus seriously. On their side alone, they had around twenty Deity Emperors. Even if Sylvus was a Deity Emperor, there was no way he would survive against them.
Amiya remained silent, but in her heart, an inexplicable sense of dread crept in. It felt as if this time, the Fallen Temple would fall into an inescapable disaster.
"No way! If things get too dire, I'll use the method given by the Divine Lord. I refuse to believe I can't take down someone like Sylvus!" Amiya thought to herself.
"Is this the Fallen City?" At this time, Sylvus had already arrived in front of a massive city. The city was vast, and at its center stood a towering black pagoda that pierced the clouds.
Sylvus knew that this was the main hall of the Fallen Temple.
"I didn't expect there to be so many fallen angels here. The divine light bomb alone won't be enough," Sylvus said, entering a void state as he flew above the Fallen City, looking down.
Although there were many other races in the city, most of the inhabitants were fallen angels. Sylvus could also sense numerous powerful presences within the central pagoda.
After surveying the city for a while, Sylvus flew outside and looked at the distant pagoda with a slight smile.
"Alright… let's make an introduction, shall we?" Sylvus muttered.
With a thought, the Titan Cannon appeared beside him. After adjusting the direction, he aimed it straight at the pagoda.
"Since I'm here, I should at least say hello first," Sylvus said, loading the divine light bomb into the Titan Cannon.
As Sylvus injected his divine power into the Titan Cannon, the crystals on the cannon began to glow with intense light. A powerful energy wave started to brew within the cannon.
"Fire!" Sylvus commanded.
A minute later, the Titan Cannon roared, and a massive beam of light shot out, speeding towards the pagoda.
Inside the room, Amiya, Yegis, and Belinda's expressions suddenly changed. They had sensed a dangerous aura rapidly approaching.
"Run!" Amiya shouted softly, disappearing in an instant.
Yegis and Belinda also quickly fled.
As the three flew into the sky, others from the three temples, all Deity Emperors, also sensed the threat and quickly evacuated the pagoda.
They looked at Amiya in confusion, unsure of what was happening. Then they saw a white beam of light rushing toward them.
Before they could react, the white beam struck the pagoda directly.
In the shocked gaze of everyone, the entire pagoda was instantly obliterated. Those still inside didn't even have time to scream before they were killed.
But Amiya and the others had no time to be angry. The power of the white beam spread out, and several weaker Deity Emperors screamed as they were swallowed by it.
Although Amiya and the others had reacted quickly and managed to escape without serious injury, they still felt their blood churning inside them as if they had taken a heavy blow.
A few minutes later, the energy fluctuations subsided, and Amiya and the others looked toward the pagoda, only to find that it had disappeared. In its place was a massive crater, thirty feet wide and ten feet deep.
"What just happened? Why is the temple destroyed? What on earth happened?"
"My god! Who dares to destroy our Fallen Temple's main hall? Are they seeking death?"
"In the Divine Realm, who would dare to oppose us, the Fallen Temple? That person must have a death wish!"
The disappearance of the pagoda caused chaos in the Fallen City. Especially among the fallen angels, each of them radiated killing intent, eager to hunt down the culprit.
Seeing how easily their temple had been destroyed, Amiya couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood in rage. Her heart was filled with fury.
"Who did this?! Who dares?!"
Amiya gritted her teeth. If they hadn't predicted the danger as Deity Emperors and escaped in time, they would have turned to ashes by now. This attack had been too sudden. Many Deity Sovereigns inside the temple hadn't even had a chance to react before they were killed.
At this moment, the fallen angel clan had suffered even greater losses. The worst part was that Amiya still hadn't even seen the enemy, which made her feel utterly humiliated.
"Lord Amiya, I've come as promised. I just said hello earlier. Are you satisfied?" A light, mocking voice echoed.
Sylvus appeared before Amiya and the others, smiling.
