Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 512 -512-This Battle is Secure!?
Previously on Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined...
"Sage Master..."
Upon hearing those words, Shadow Blade paused in silence briefly.
The danger from a Sage Master was indeed overwhelming.
The Godslayer Clan owned a Godslayer Blade, a Proto–World Relic forged in Star Sea and refined across endless eras by their people, boasting a remarkably strong bond.
Yet, even when swung with full power, it could scarcely fend off a Sage Master for just a little while.
Miles went on, "The Crossbridge Empire’s legions present no real danger."
"Should the Godslayer Clan ally with us, they’ll be no issue at all. All we must do is contain that Sage Master and Aurek. Their remaining elite troops can be swiftly crushed."
Having heard Miles out, Shadow Blade shifted his attention to the Ancient Starwatchers.
The elder responded deliberately, "Though the Crossbridge Empire commands vast armies, including more than a hundred million God King-ranked soldiers, few surpass the Sage King level."
"Dispatching a single Sage Lord, backed by a handful of Divine Oracles, would suffice to wipe them out with ease. No need to clash to the bitter end with the Crossbridge Empire—just drive them out of the Abyss Demon Realm."
"In that scenario, we merely have to pin down that Sage Master and Aurek; the others won’t matter."
Right then, the elder couldn’t foresee the Crossbridge Empire’s next moves.
Nevertheless, blending the Godslayer Clan’s might with the small Wayshift Realm’s assets yielded a quasi-Sage Master, five Sage Lords, various quasi-Sage Lords, close to two hundred Divine Oracles, plus hordes of Divine Radiant and Sage Kings.
Directing all that force into an assault would overwhelmingly overpower the Crossbridge Empire, even without total annihilation.
The sole hurdle remained that Sage Master.
But if the Godslayer Clan managed to stall the Sage Master even momentarily, the allied powers could rapidly dismantle the Crossbridge Empire’s garrisons in the demon realm and secure victory.
The Godslayer Clan’s roots dwarfed those of the Council of the Dark Order by a factor of a thousand, which explained why groups like the Judicatory Sanctum chose partnership.
"Should the Sage Master show up, our clan will deploy two Sage Lords, and I, together with the Sage Lords from the Wayshift Clan and Starfall Wardenhold, must unite to keep him in check."
"The rest can pursue their targets without restraint."
Shadow Blade held back a safety net.
Engaging a Sage Master carried tremendous peril, and should the fight sour, the Godslayer Clan kept another Sage Lord in reserve at the back, poised for instant withdrawal.
Once they planned the swift takedown of the Crossbridge Empire’s demon realm troops, the group advanced toward the Holy Kare Mountains in the Abyss Demon Realm.
...
Holy Kare Mountains.
Suggwoth, Overthunder, War Bear, and their comrades had rallied their deployed legions, gearing up for combat.
Every major power converged in this spot, eyes fixed skyward.
Bone King Otto had made his entrance too.
Clad in an ornate, weighty robe and crowned with the Bone King’s diadem, he ascended into the air with a single stride.
Below his feet, an enormous magical array unfurled swiftly, firing endless rays of light that stabbed through sky and soil alike.
Mighty surges of energy rippled outward in waves, plunging the whole realm into cycles of brilliance and shadow.
At the array’s heart, a grand and imposing sacred platform erupted from the earth.
Otto perched atop it, his garments billowing amid the power storm, enveloped in boundless glow. A splendid bloom of verity floated down from emptiness, lending him an aura of utmost majesty.
A tremendous quasi-Sage Lord aura erupted, weighing down the world and forcing all creatures to quiver.
This grand arrival spiked the tension to its peak instantly!
The Bone Clan’s fighters and Griffith found themselves utterly captivated.
"Otto!?"
"Since aligning with the Crossbridge Empire, your boldness has swelled. You show your face without fear... Don’t you worry your skeleton will shatter?"
Miles’ taunting words boomed through the skies.
He hovered over the clouds, grinning mockingly at the haughty Otto atop the sacred platform.
That reminder made Otto’s chest clench.
He swiftly scanned his barriers, bolstering hundreds of protective layers in a flash, then invoked the sacred bones to shield his core spirit.
He readied three devastating divine techniques that could endanger a Sage Lord, set to unleash without delay.
After finally staging his dramatic arrival, he prioritized his own security above all!
This display rendered Griffith and the rest speechless, while even the Bone Clan soldiers lapsed into quiet.
"Hmph!"
From above, the Godslayer Clan’s powerhouses scoffed contemptuously.
The Wayshift Clan and Starfall Wardenhold members shook their heads too.
Otto had cranked his defenses to the maximum before the fight even started... What spooked him so much?
This conflict was a sure win!
A few Sage Lords had already scanned the full Abyss Demon Realm, pinpointing Otto upon the Holy Kare Mountains’ sacred platform.
They held back from striking right away, letting waves of quasi-Sage Lords, Divine Oracles, and Sage Kings advance ahead.
As a dominant Star Sea force, the Godslayer Clan brimmed with Sage Kings and God King warriors, augmented by Wayshift Clan and Starfall Wardenhold allies—plenty to overwhelm the Crossbridge Empire’s armies.
The Divine Oracles and quasi-Sage Lords rapidly dispatched the Crossbridge Empire’s Divine Radiant and Divine Oracle fighters, as multiple Sage Lords remained on guard against the Sage Master.
Myriad silhouettes plunged from the heavens, drawing the gaze of every entity in the Abyss Demon Realm.
Otto held his tongue; preparations stood complete.
Ten Sage Lords ripped open the void, materializing near the sacred platform.
Simultaneously, thousands of spatial gateways yawned across the firmament.
Thirty million Sage King-ranked legions poured from the gateways, arraying in the air and targeting the Wayshift Clan, Starfall Wardenhold, Judicatory Sanctum, and Godslayer Clan...
The invading forces from the small Wayshift Realm, swooping downward, came to an abrupt stop, immobilized like statues in the emptiness, their stares bulging in disbelief.
Miles stood frozen too, struggling to process the scene!
The Wayshift Clan chief, the Starfall Wardenhold ruler, and the Ancient Starwatchers gaped in astonishment.
The two Sage Lords from the small Wayshift Realm, the three from the Godslayer Clan, assorted quasi-Sage Lords, and Divine Oracles all reeled in shock.
The Abyss Demon Realm itself appeared suspended in time.
Aurek, Griffith, Raymond, the Bone Clan, and countless other elites also stared blankly.
The quasi-Sage Master Shadow Blade gawked at the ten Sage Lords and thirty million Sage King legions, wordless, instinctively glancing toward Miles.
Wait, didn’t you claim the Crossbridge Empire’s legions were negligible?
Weren’t they harmless?
Could be handled without effort?
Are you a spy for the Crossbridge Empire?
Miles, just as bewildered, lingered in a daze for ages.
"Let’s deliver them a small surprise."
Otto savored a profound relief.
Though naturally wary and death-averse, he relished dominating the battlefield like this.
Confident in his impregnability, he eagerly took the vanguard to soothe his Majesty’s concerns...
"All forces, charge!"
He lifted his arm and signaled.
This display drew twitches from many onlookers’ lips.
A "small surprise" was fine, but unleashing a full assault seemed excessive.
Ten Sage Lords, thirty million Sage Kings... this...
Boom!
Ten Sage Lords zeroed in on Shadow Blade the quasi-Sage Master and various other Sage Lords, surging ahead with the Olympian Sword.
Among the ten Sage Lords were the disgraced Peace Envoy of the Sun, two from the Seven Guardians of Light, and two fresh Sage Lord allies.
Actually, eight were veteran ancient Sage Lords, with two standard ones.
"World Relic!"
The display horrified Shadow Blade.
Their clan’s Godslayer Blade was merely a Proto–World Relic, but foes wielded true World Relics!?
"Fall back, everyone!"
Shadow Blade roared in fury.
Against the Sage Master, these eight ancient Sage Lords armed with World Relics proved even deadlier.
His shout jolted the allies from their trance.
Yet the thirty million Sage King Void Warlocks had already barricaded the skies entirely.
Each fixed on an opponent, and suddenly, fighters from the Godslayer Clan, Wayshift Clan, Starfall Wardenhold, and Judicatory Sanctum started dropping.
Divine Oracles found themselves ensnared in stacked spatial walls, endlessly obliterated by dimensional might.
