Stalemate

The Azure Hand had stood for tens of millions of years. Could it really be so vulnerable that a newly risen challenger had driven it to the brink of destruction in just three years?

Judging by the comparison of forces, that seemed to be the case.

The group contained ninety-nine True God-level experts—Level 9 Mana Web Walkers.

Including its leader, Karosinasri, there were a total of one hundred True God-level experts!

Before asking just how powerful one hundred True God-level experts were, it was better to first understand this: just how powerful was a single True God-level expert?

In other words, those one hundred True God-level experts were equivalent to one hundred nuclear bombs capable of detonating endlessly, each able to
