The expression on the Blazing True God's face froze forever in that instant.
The illusory arrow, formed entirely from Shadow Law, pierced his brow without leaving a physical wound.
But his body began dissolving silently from the head down, like a snowman left under the blazing sun for ten days.
The dozens of platinum halo shields he took such pride in still surrounded him, completely intact.
The Main Warship's Defense Matrix had not even registered an attack.
"Archon... save..." The Blazing True God managed only half a word.
With a faint rustle, this renowned High-Rank True God of the Seventh Star Domain was erased in an instant. His Godhead, his soul, and every Resurrection Anchor he had left at Heaven Country's headquarters were gone along with the very concept of his existence.
All that remained was a dull suit of Platinum Divine Armor, which clattered onto the deck.
Dead silence fell over the battlefield.
Beside him, the Scavenger God Pantheon leader who had just been spewing venom stared with his jaw nearly on the floor.
The dozen or so Withered Bone Shields he had condensed from High-Dimensional Origin Essence still floated before him. Yet the Blazing True God beside him was simply gone?
That was a High-Rank True God!
Even surrounded by enemies of the same rank, he could have held out for ten days or more. If he could not win, he could at least flee. If he could not flee, he could still revive at his base.
And now?
Not even a trace remained.
"That first arrow worked well enough." Qin Chuan did not look where the Blazing True God had vanished. He turned his wrist and aimed the second black arrow on his bowstring at the pustule-covered Scavenger God Pantheon leader.
"Second arrow. Scavenger God Pantheon."
Twang.
