Five Finger Mountain

Boom!

A red halo of Sovereign's Might emerged around Korklav's body. This was the aura formed by the power that leaked out because Sovereign's Might could not be completely controlled after being used.

The defensive power carried by this layer of Sovereign's Might aura was even stronger than that of a High-level Defensive Artifact.

This was also why a Four-star Devil, after using Sovereign's Might, could temporarily hold back a Six-star Devil.

If one could not break the aura of Sovereign's Might, one could not inflict any fatal injury upon the person using it.

And under the effects of Sovereign's Might, so long as it was not an instant kill, a God's wounds would be swiftly repaired by Sovereign's Might.

"Fire God's Blazing Flame!"

Korklav shouted explosively. A massive Flame Sword Qi tore through space and struck the Star in the sky, which had swollen to a hundred meters in size after absorbing a vast amount of Earth Element.

Wherever the Flame Sword Qi passed, crescent-shaped Space Rifts split open.

An incomparable suction force erupted from those Space Rifts, seeking to drag all surrounding matter into them.

That powerful Aura left Shelley and the others aboard the Metal Life shaken to the core.

Against such a powerhouse, even if they used Sovereign's Might, how long could they last?

After that scarlet sword qi slashed into the Star formed by Chibaku Tensei, cross-shaped cracks erupted across the sky before it exploded with a deafening blast.

Boom!

Enhanced by Fire Element Sovereign Power, Chibaku Tensei was blasted directly into fragments. The flames scorched black streaks into the surrounding space, as though they were about to burn space itself apart.

The gravitational core of Chibaku Tensei was shattered, and its pulling force vanished completely. Korklav steadied himself in midair.

Yet his heart felt not the slightest joy.

Of the sixteen Elders who had come out with him, apart from the four Six-star Devil Elders who had used Sovereign's Might, the other Five-star Devil Elders drawn into Chibaku Tensei had, even if they had not died when sucked in, been reduced to less than ashes by his final strike.

Within the blazing flames, twelve God Sparks of varying colors fell toward the ground.

When the Space Rifts marked by black streaks touched the God Sparks, they merely produced clanging sounds and could not damage the God Sparks at all.

"Damn it!"

Looking at those dozen or so God Sparks, Korklav raised his head and stared directly at Roy in the sky.

The might of Sovereign's Might made Korklav feel that even against an Asura Prefect, he was not without a chance of victory.

His overwhelming strength made Korklav forget his earlier decision.

He was going to strike back and kill him!

Whoosh!

Korklav transformed into a scarlet streak of light. Endless Fire Element gathered through the Profound Mysteries of Laws, forming a thousand-meter Flame Greatsword.

Korklav raised the Flame Greatsword high and slashed it down at Roy.

In the sky, Korklav tore long crescent-shaped rifts through space. If not for the defense of Sovereign's Might, he likely would not even have been able to maintain his balance against that immense suction.

The Yul Family's remaining four Six-star Devil Elders also seemed to have greatly increased their strength after using Sovereign's Might. They followed behind Korklav and charged at Roy.

They intended to join forces with their Patriarch and kill this Seven-star Devil Elder of the Four Divine Beast Family in the shortest possible time. Then, with Patriarch Korklav's strength, would the Four Divine Beast Family members inside that Metal Life not simply be lambs awaiting slaughter?

Facing Korklav's attack, enhanced by Sovereign's Might, Roy did not dare be careless either.

With a thought, he took a drop of ochre-colored Power of the Earth High God from his Spatial Ring and absorbed it into his body.

Boom, boom, boom, boom...

In an instant, boundless power erupted from Roy's body.

Strengthened by this drop of Sovereign's Might, Roy felt his power reach an entirely different realm.

Sensing the leakage of Sovereign's Might, Roy unleashed his Soul Power, slowing the rate at which Sovereign's Might dispersed.

A faint yellow glow surfaced around Roy's body. This was Sovereign's Might leaking out beyond Roy's control.

Compared to the dazzling red radiance around Korklav, the Power of the Earth High God outside Roy's body was nearly imperceptible.

This was because Roy's current Soul Power was more than forty times stronger than Korklav's, and his control over Sovereign's Might surpassed Korklav's.

With Three-element Soul Mutation, the intensity of one's Soul Power was a hundred times that of an ordinary High-level God. At that realm, even without Willpower, one could perfectly control Sovereign's Might.

After all, the power of fused Three-element High-level Divine Power was comparable to Sovereign's Might. Coupled with the ability to gather the gaseous, dispersed Sovereign's Might within Ink Stones into Sovereign's Might itself, it would make no sense if one still could not perfectly control Sovereign's Might.

Roy extended his right hand toward the five charging men, palm facing the sky.

Then Sovereign's Might surged, and he violently flipped his right palm downward—

"Five Finger Mountain!"

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom—

In an instant, heaven and earth changed color.

Endless Profound Mysteries of Laws gathered into a palm-shaped mountain ten thousand meters high, crashing down upon Korklav and the others.

"No!"

The moment the mountain appeared, its immense gravity crushed Korklav and the other four from the sky to the ground. Korklav's thousand-meter Flame Greatsword lasted only a single breath before instantly shattering.

Under that powerful suppressive force, the bones throughout the bodies of the Yul Family's four Six-star Devil Elders were crushed. If not for the protection of Sovereign's Might, they would likely have been reduced to powder in the first instant.

Yet even with Sovereign's Might protecting them, they were left severely wounded. Their injuries recovered under the effects of Sovereign's Might, only for the immense gravity to wound them again, over and over.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

The colossal Five Finger Mountain descended, crushing the surrounding space apart.

From the outside, it looked as though a ring of black, ghostly light wrapped around Five Finger Mountain.

As Five Finger Mountain descended, space was torn into waterfall-like Space Rifts that slowly recovered under the Laws of the World.

"No!"

Crack, crack...

As Five Finger Mountain drew closer and closer to Korklav and the others, even under the protection of Sovereign's Might, Korklav's bones began to break.

Thud...

Korklav's kneecaps shattered first. He dropped to his knees, driving his longsword into the ground and barely supporting his body.

Under the ever-increasing suppressive force, the rate at which the four Six-star Devil Elders recovered from their injuries gradually accelerated as well.

Finally, when the Sovereign's Might around the four Six-star Devil Elders completely dispersed—

Splurt...

Splurt...

Four pools of bright red blood proved that they had once existed.

"Aah!"

Korklav's eyes were bloodshot as he erupted with powerful flames, yet he could not even stand up.
