Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 518 -518-Submission — With a Wave of the Hand, Slaying a Sage Master

A Sage Lord–rank entity proved notoriously hard to eliminate for good.

Even a powerhouse like Kaos, a genuine Sage Master, had repeatedly slain the Office of Light, but he could never wipe him out completely. This stemmed from the fact that a Sage Master had grasped rules and order, merging their soul and will directly into those laws.

As long as those rules persisted, their life would not truly cease.

No matter how many times they were killed, rebirth remained possible.

In one fleeting moment, Aurek unleashed billions of strikes. While he couldn't fully end the Office of Light, he had sealed him eternally inside the chaotic depths of the Sword Realm.

An unending cycle of brutal grinding and slaughter. Bit by bit, everything eroded toward oblivion.

That devastating sword blow struck terror into the hearts of the Sage Masters from the Lord of the Blazing Eagle, the Primordial Sacred Land, and the Starlight Colonnade—including the Office of Light himself!

They desperately attempted to break through the Sword Realm's barrier and escape this terrifying space.

Aurek effortlessly flipped his sword grip and unleashed a sweeping slash.

Swordlight poured forth like a cascade of stars exploding across the sky!

Five Sage Masters perished at once—each felled by a single strike!

As for the ancient Sage Lords and quasi–Sage Masters, that immense sword glow obliterated them outright—erasing their very "existence" from reality without a trace.

Pff—!

The Primordial Sacred Land's Sage Master coughed up a gush of golden blood. In frantic terror, he clawed at the void, tearing open space itself, too afraid to even look back at Aurek.

That overwhelming power, so utterly supreme it seemed unreal, forced him to acknowledge: this emperor surpassed anything the world had ever known.

Just recall that earlier incarnation, the one that pulverized the Peace Committee like mere rubble—that alone proved it.

Aurek didn't advance even an inch.

But the rules and order governing space had already sealed the area tight.

The master of soul rules lifted his golden sword and stabbed ahead.

Instantly, the blade punched straight through the back of the Primordial Sacred Land Sage Master's skull!

Soul rules raced through his spiritual channels and supreme rule-veins, igniting into infinite Burning Soul Fire that blazed outward, consuming him in a raging inferno.

"Honored Emperor, most noble Majesty! My Flame Eagle Clan is willing to submit!"

Witnessing Aurek casually swing and decapitate another Sage Master, the Lord of the Blazing Eagle quaked with overwhelming fear.

Aurek paid him no mind. His eyes fixed on the Office of Light, who kept struggling to break free.

The Myriad Judgment Domain expanded—countless phantoms of chaotic universes dropped down like overlapping shades!

The golden sword gleamed like streaking light, slicing the Office of Light into fragments and hauling them into the Thousand Sword Judgment Domain for relentless shredding and obliteration!

In a single breath, he demolished and executed three Sage Masters—timeless entities from the dawn of creation!

Kaos plunged into profound doubt. Even if he deployed every technique and hidden method at his disposal... could he ever pull off something like this?

The three top experts of the Sea God Temple reeled in utter shock.

The Lord of the Blazing Eagle and the surviving two Sage Masters descended into total disarray.

They had battled fiercely, endured endless trials, and at last reached the Sage Master realm—who among them would accept falling here?

But Aurek wielded the true power to end them for good.

Beyond the battlefield, every faction's hopes crumbled to dust.

Every soul felt choked—crushed under waves of hopelessness.

This emperor's coming embodied their worst nightmares.

Had they realized Aurek's horror earlier, they would have instantly chosen submission... or fled the Celestial Light God Realm—anything to avoid his sword's deadly reach.

Inside the Thousand Sword Judgment Domain, the sword intent kept building...

Space rules clamped the void closed.

The Lord of the Blazing Eagle and the other two Sage Masters, bereft of all hope, ceased their assaults. They offered their surrender to Aurek.

"Release your soul origin," Aurek commanded coldly. "Become the empire’s slaves, and your grave sins might find forgiveness."

Aurek remained motionless, yet his aura already dominated the skies and lands.

The golden sword kept pulverizing and carving up the Office of Light, forcing him ever deeper into the Sword Realm.

To eradicate him utterly demanded sustained devastation—ongoing breakdown of the rules he had woven into—but once trapped in the Sword Realm, he would inevitably dissolve back into chaos, his divine soul merging with heaven and earth.

Cornered with no choice, the Lord of the Blazing Eagle and the other two Sage Masters dropped every barrier.

Kaos and the Sea God Temple's elite experts stood watching. Escape was impossible now.

The instant they yielded their soul origins, Aurek's tyrannical will crashed in like a flood—swallowing them whole, binding them as slaves.

A Sage Lord–rank being could theoretically detach their own soul and excise portions of themselves. Yet by the time they finished such a process, before Aurek they would amount to less than insects.

Aurek waved his hand dismissively.

Outside the battlefield, Sage Lords and ancient Sage Lords toppled in vast numbers—like harvested wheat under the scythe.

Boyd and the other ancient Sage Lords shuddered uncontrollably.

Despair blanketed the heavens and the earth.

The few survivors scattered in wild panic, their spirits shattered and lifeless.

Aurek strode once into the emptiness.

On the battlefield, mighty figures one by one knelt before that emperor and groveled in submission.

That solitary figure dwarfed everyone—instilling utter hopelessness.

Aurek just positioned himself under the vault of heaven, and the whole battlefield fell under total subjugation.

The savage carnage eased off gradually, then stopped entirely, as those formidable beings bent low in reverence.

Beneath that commanding presence, no one dared to stir.

The immense regal pressure sent every creature trembling on instinct.

If the emperor's incarnation from before had stunned them—if it had evoked the splendor and despotism of a ruler—

then this true form now delivered something far more profound:

an untouchable, paramount, unassailable authority.

Aurek only stood motionless, and even ancient Sage Lords bowed their heads, unwilling to face his gaze.

The God of Wisdom, the War Executor, and the High Priest of the Temple sensed they confronted a transcendent being.

Even as Sage Masters, amid this atmosphere they could only stay quiet—overwhelmed by the sheer weight of his suppression and presence.

Kaos remained silent, but the storm raging inside him defied words.

He knew Aurek had ascended to the Sage Lord rank, yet... for a newcomer to that level to annihilate a fellow Sage Master so decisively—

it defied all precedent.

Aurek scanned this so-called divine realm, his imperial robe billowing without a breeze.

Beside him, the golden sword floated vertically, its blade inhaling and exhaling icy gleams that chilled souls to the core.

Of course, that dread didn't arise from the sword alone.

It emanated from its master.

He uttered not a word. He pivoted and entered the imperial chariot.

Rumble—!

The world gate yawned open, connecting straight to the royal court temple on God Mountain!

Shirino; Evelyn of the Eternal Winter Divine Empire; Grace, Winter, and Alvin;

along with the Sea Temple Master, the God of Wisdom, the War Executor, the High Priest of the Temple and their throng of priests...

Several Sage Masters—and even Boyd and the other ancient Sage Lords who had knelt in the void—filed into the royal court successively, all showing the same deferential wariness, drawn by some unseen force.

Meanwhile, leaders like Suggwoth and Ares directed their forces to purge the Primordial Sacred Land, the Cloudcrown Sanctum, the Starlight Colonnade...

...

Within the majestic temple.

Before the immense imperial throne, Aurek stood with hands behind his back, his flowing royal robe draping like a dark cascade.

The whole temple hung in hushed stillness.

Josephine, Elizabeth, Belinda, Fiona, Natasha, and the others tactfully stepped back to the outer hall.

Aurek's eyes settled on the Sea Temple Master and the White Lady Shirino.

"This subject pays respects to Your Majesty," the Sea Temple Master declared, offering a deep bow.

Those words sent a jolt through every elite in the hall.

They gaped at her in disbelief.

After all, the Sea Temple Master hailed from the God Temples across the Star Sea, a Sage Lord forged from the seas themselves—one of the two most enigmatic supreme powers in the Celestial Light God Realm.

And she served under this emperor?!

When did this occur?

Boyd, the gold-coin grandmaster Tuk, even the Lord of the Blazing Eagle and the other three Sage Masters—each one froze in astonishment.

But the key figures of the Crossbridge Empire grasped it the second they laid eyes on her.

This Sea Temple Master... was actually Sophia, the one who had vanished.

Sherana couldn't resist shooting a look at her sister Shirino, her emotions suddenly churning.

Could it be...

Right then, Shirino also paid homage to Aurek.

In that moment, Sherana's thoughts blanked out.

She couldn't fathom what this all signified. On reflex, she turned to Alvin.

Alvin just offered a subtle smile.

But that smile twisted inside Sherana, like icy fingers clutching her chest.

It felt as if the smile whispered: even her elaborate journey to the Crossbridge Empire had been orchestrated from the start.

"Damn you, Shirino..."

Sharp resentment flared in Sherana's heart.

"What exactly have you been plotting?"
