Chapter 160: Sword of Holy Light

Gazing at the battle between the gods of Holy Haigar and the Abyss-born creatures.

Gunie pondered briefly.

“These Abyss-born creatures are more formidable than before.”

“Back when they were still divine envoys at the ancestral spirit level, they only exhibited the ability to restrain Source creatures, preventing the power of Source from being unleashed.”

“After they ascended to godhood, they developed the ability to restrain divine power, allowing these gods to exert only thirty or forty percent of their strength.”

“Moreover…”

Gunie’s gaze swept over the three massive Abyss-born creatures.

“Their defensive and offensive capabilities have also greatly increased, far surpassing gods of the same rank.”

“Their own strength, coupled with their suppression of divine beings, allows them, at the third-rank god level, to hunt these fourth-rank gods.”

“However, for me, I have long assimilated the extraordinary traits of these Abyss-born creatures.”

“Naturally, I am not afraid of their suppression of Source, divine power, or even Cthulhu creatures.”

“Moreover, these Abyss-born creatures grow very fast.”

“They were at the same level as me back then, and now they haven’t fallen behind in cultivation—and I’ve been cultivating at a breakneck pace, as if cheating.”

“In fact, I’ve heard that some powerful Origin creatures have already reached the fifth-rank god level.”

“I really don’t know how these guys cultivate.”

“But if possible, these creatures are naturally comparable to the mighty rulers of Cthulhu creatures.”

“Now, growing so fast is understandable.”

As Gunie pondered, the several gods were already struggling to hold on.

With a thought.

With a “hum,”

a streak of white light over five meters long condensed into a crystalline holy sword, instantly blooming.

The divine power imbued in the “Sword of Holy Light” was unmistakably that of a third-rank god.

After five years of secluded cultivation,

Gunie had now reached the mid-stage of the third-rank god level.

In the realm of gods, the further one progresses, the longer it takes, even with treasures.

To advance to the third-rank god level in just five years

was already very short for a god.

After all, in terms of a god’s own cultivation,

advancing from the second-rank to the third-rank god level often takes thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Now, at the mid-stage of the third-rank god level, Gunie had perfectly mastered cosmic divine power and wielded it with consummate skill.

At the same time, his Sword of Holy Light technique had also reached level nine during these five years of secluded cultivation.

His insight into the profound mysteries had nearly reached the ceiling of the god level.

This brought the power of Gunie’s Sword of Holy Light

close to the level of a God Dominator.

Among the three Abyss-born creatures,

a “Wraith God” over twenty meters tall

struck down with a sharp claw of soul-rending talons.

The third-rank god before it was already severely wounded; this blow would directly attack the depths of his soul and kill him.

Just then,

“Hum!”

Space trembled slightly.

A milky-white crystalline light shot through in an instant.

Before the Wraith God could react,

“Sss—”

the Sword of Holy Light had already pierced through its body.

“Hiss…”

The Wraith God let out a miserable, wailing scream.

Its entire body melted away like snow under a scorching sun.

In less than three seconds,

the third-rank Abyss-born Wraith God was dead.

Leaving only a peculiar Source Core in the air.

This sudden turn of events terrified the remaining two Abyss-born creatures.

A single sword had killed a being of their same rank.

For them, it would surely end no better.

“Flee!”

The two massive Abyss-born creatures—a “Winged Centipede” and an “Armored Beetle,” both over two hundred meters long—did not hesitate and turned to escape.

“Trying to flee?”

Gunie smiled lightly.

With his current strength, it was extremely difficult for these third-rank Abyss-born creatures to escape.

Hum! Hum!

Two more Swords of Holy Light bloomed.

The next moment,

Sss! Sss!

Crossing a distance of seventy to eighty thousand meters, the two Swords of Holy Light pierced through the two fleeing Abyss-born creatures.

As the Swords of Holy Light passed through them, they understood why the Wraith God had been killed so easily.

Because within the sword edge was a terrifying divine power that suffocated them.

Under the加持 of that terrifying divine power, the devastating destructive force was fully unleashed.

Their bodies were indeed massive,

but the energy within the sword edge completely overwhelmed them.

As the sword edges swept by,

the two third-rank Abyss-born creatures died instantly.

Their corpses drifted forward along their original flight path.

At that moment, the divine squad in the air felt a mix of joy and fear, with terror rising in their hearts.

“Thank you, senior god, for saving our lives!”

The squad members spoke respectfully.

When they sensed someone intervening, they were naturally overjoyed.

At least someone’s intervention meant they wouldn’t die.

But when they saw that the intervener had killed the three powerful Abyss-born creatures that had chased them for millions of kilometers with just three sword strikes,

an uncontrollable fear surged in their hearts.

Such a powerful being was probably at the God Dominator level.

God Dominators are beings that completely transcend the god level.

Although they had unknowingly led the Abyss-born creatures here, if the being blamed them, they would all die.

Seeing their trembling fear, Gunie guessed their thoughts.

Now, Gunie’s strength could be said to rival a God Dominator.

He was at the pinnacle of existence in Holy Haigar.

Such strength was naturally not to be disturbed by these third- and fourth-rank gods.

“Leave quickly, and do not disturb my secluded cultivation!”

Gunie’s voice came leisurely.

Hearing this, the group felt as if they had received a great pardon.

They immediately leaped and swiftly fled away.

After they left, Gunie waved his hand,

collecting the peculiar Source Core from the dead Wraith God and the corpses of the two massive Abyss-born creatures.

After pondering for a moment,

Gunie then manipulated his Cthulhu power to carefully sense into the peculiar Source Cores of the three Abyss-born creatures.

In the five years of secluded cultivation here,

the improvement in realm was secondary.

The main thing was that Gunie’s Cthulhu body had entered a vigorous growth period.

At the same time, his Cthulhu traits and abilities had gradually emerged.

Gunie’s Cthulhu traits perfectly merged and absorbed other Cthulhu traits, giving rise to his own unique Cthulhu traits.

This was clearly due to the powerful function of the system’s reincarnation ability.

At the same time, Gunie’s own Cthulhu abilities gradually surfaced.

One of Gunie’s Cthulhu abilities was—Seeing the Truth.

This so-called “Seeing the Truth” did not mean that Gunie could see the future or anything like that.

Rather, it meant that Gunie could use his ability to see all the true circumstances that a corresponding object had encountered in the past.

For example, through the corpses of these three Abyss-born creatures, Gunie could learn everything they had come into contact with, experienced, and even where they came from.

This ability was not particularly powerful, but at least it gave Gunie a way to control special information.

At the same time, this Cthulhu ability would grow stronger as Gunie’s strength increased.
