impassable

As expected, Aman'Thul does not contradict the eternal seal imposed by Norgannon. This great sealing technique released with the help of Arcane's power from Pantheon will use this special area as a node to open up a special cage plane for Aman'Thul.

Because Pantheon cannot be reached or perceived by any normal means, it is in a dimension higher than reality.

Only those spellcasters who have taken the Arcane path to the extreme can get a glimpse of the aura. Therefore, using this place as a sealing place is not to say 100% safe, but at least it is definitely much safer than digging a hole anywhere Material World to seal it.

And the Father of the Gods is indeed a "real man" in a sense.

Before being sealed, He returned all the power he gained from Arcane Force to the Platinum Lightning Vantage Point that belonged to Him, retaining only the symbol of the Arcane path He walked, thus maintaining the immortality of His Cosmic Soul.

This can basically be described as "if you don't bring it with you in life, you won't take it with you in death", and there is even a feeling of loneliness and freedom after "the pursuit of a lifetime of obsession is broken".

However, the "inner words" Aman'Thul said before being sealed were like heavy boulders weighing on the hearts of everyone around them. Even Stone-Scale Dragon, who had a heart as hard as stone, could feel the hesitation and worry of the Queen trio at this time.

Because lies won't hurt, the truth is the sharpest knife.

Having reached their point on Arcane Path, they already have enough experience and rationality to help them judge that Aman'Thul is not talking nonsense.

That is truly the Father of the Gods' concluding description of what He sees as the "Arcane Road."

In other words, they will really encounter this kind of "disaster" in the future.

"Don't worry."

Iridikron was in a very good mood. After defeating Aman'Thul, his desire for revenge was greatly satisfied. He looked at the other Titan with sinister and ruthless eyes, just like the Butcher was looking at a pig waiting to be slaughtered, wondering where to cut it.

It stepped forward and said jokingly to Medivh:

"You can walk your Arcane path with confidence and boldly, chasing the glory of becoming a god. If one day in the future there is news that you have transformed into a monster in the wind of stars, please rest assured! I will be happy to "relieve your worries" for free."

It also shook its "black as ink" claws to show that it really had such an ability.

Medivh glanced at Stone-Scale Dragon with a strange look.

He shouldn't be thanking it for its damn comfort, or scolding this guy for his wolfish ambitions.

Nether-Stalker shrugged.

It believes that it has a high probability of surviving the "Arcane desperate situation" described by Aman'Thul.

Unlike Arcane Mage like Medivh and Azshara who pursue the truth wholeheartedly, Nether-Stalker knows the focus of his next life. All should be put above the great cause of rescuing the Merciless K'aresh, and following Diakum's example to protect his own Star Soul Lord's safe recovery.

Once this person has hope, once he has attachments, once he has worries, it will be difficult for him to be free and unrestrained.

But the desire to "do great things" is also an extremely solid anchor. As long as the Merciless K'aresh does not wake up, Nether-Stalker will not be lost in Arcane Path's exploration.

This is what "responsibility" means.

On a normal day, heavy things on your shoulders will slow you down in your pursuit of happiness. However, when you are in a desperate situation that truly tortures your soul, those heavy things will always keep you from forgetting your original intention, so that you can persevere.

As for Azshara.

Although the Queen is also worried, she still has to be busy with business at this time.

She was standing a little further away, informing Diakum about the situation here at Pantheon.

This is a very necessary step. After all, in the battle between Vigilant and Dark Titan, Pantheon also undertakes a very important mission.

The Queen said:

"We captured Aman'Thul, who was so bewitched by Fel that his unclear mind forced him to make a rather stupid decision.

This is the second good news.

My Magic Prince and I worked hard with the palace ambassador to record the cipher text sequence leading to Arcane Zareth'Moth Holy Land, and we got the "key".

Unfortunately, this is an eleventh level sequence and it will take me some time to unlock its secrets.

What is even more regrettable is that the Father of the Gods made a miserable prophecy and warning to us when he faced failure calmly.

Although I intend to refute, I may be crazy, because my rationality and sensibility are telling me at the same time that Aman'Thul's "desperate prophecy" has a high probability of coming true in the future, which means that I will definitely face a very dangerous and painful choice.

I just hope that a gentleman from High Heaven can stop me from embarking on the road of self-destruction before I make another stupid choice.

Alas, let's not talk about this anymore.

How far are you from the location of Sargeras at this time?

It will take some time for Titan Soul and Titan Soul of Pantheon to seal Aman'Thul. Can we postpone the moment of the battle encounter? This way we can rush over as soon as possible to assist you and Argus Lord."

"I do think so, but it's a pity that fate never depends on the will of the supplicant. What's more, a bastard like me who has been beating fate for a long time will definitely be "specially entertained" by it."

Vigilant replied in a gentle tone:

"Sargeras has obviously captured the approaching aura of me and Argus Lord. God An'she told me that Dark Titan has accelerated again. A conservative estimate is that in twenty minutes at most, we will encounter each other in this desolate and unfamiliar galaxy.

But this place is far enough away from the Azeroth star sea and safe enough.

The distance of thirteen galaxies is enough to ensure that any evil desire of Sargeras for Supreme Star Soul cannot be satisfied.

How much longer do you need?"

Queen Azshara did not look back immediately, but turned to look at Platinum Titan who was already casting a spell to mobilize Arcane Force into the "Eternal Seal" ritual.

Norgannon raised his finger and gestured with four fingers to the Queen.

She replied to Diakum:

"Conservatively estimated, it may take forty minutes to complete the preliminary ritual, but I will find ways to compress this time as much as possible. After Aman'Thul's seal is completed, Pantheon will immediately go to the war zone.

We will reverse the convergence of Pantheon on Arcane Force, turning it into the most destructive energy tide and throwing it on Sargeras.

A conservative estimate is that it can trap Him and hurt Him."

"Can it be more extreme?"

Diakum asked rhetorically:

"For example, use the destructive power of Arcane Force to cut off part of Dark Titan's body, thereby severely injuring him and creating more opportunities for me and Argus Lord to defeat the enemy.

This is a completely necessary correction.

Sargeras knows Pantheon as well as other Titan. I don't think he will be defenseless against the influence Pantheon can exert. After the eternal seal quota was given to Aman'Thul, the threat of Pantheon's power to Dark Titan is already very small.

We must take a different approach."

"Okay!"

Azshara thought for a moment and said in a deep voice:

"This requires modifying the underlying logic of Pantheon gathering and releasing Arcane Force, which is theoretically difficult to complete, but Pantheon is part of Arcane Zareth'Moth Holy Land, which means that Firstborn Cipher System also has a certain influence here.

You want us to create a "Arcane Divine Sword" that can make Sargeras feel pain, we are happy to do so.

But please hold on, Diakum.

Hold on until your queen arrives on the battlefield. If possible, choose to temporarily transfer in and delay the time. I don't want to see you, driven by justice, choose to try Recklessness and die together with Sargeras.

I rarely say this about another person.

But if there are more gods like you in this sea of stars, then perhaps the peaceful era will last as long as possible. Whether it is from the Arcane Force level or from my personal level, this is an excellent future.

If I were a bad person, I would definitely want to be surrounded by good people.

And you, Diakum, you are undoubtedly the kind of good person who can reassure everyone."

"At this time, you actually want to send a "good guy card" to Warrior who is about to go to the decisive battle? But I still thank you for your concern and praise, Your Majesty, and besides, you'd better not choose to be a bad guy.

Out of morality as a friend, I'm not threatening you, but it's really best not to do this."

Diakum laughed and replied:

"I will persist until you come and watch you and Sargeras complete the settlement of the grudges that occurred thousands of years ago."

"This is not a reckoning."

Azshara denied:

"Your queen has many character flaws. I will not deny this fact in front of a noble person like you, but my personal feud with Sargeras will not end today.

Just like you would not choose Execute Dark Titan even if you had the chance, because there must be a demon lord to ensure the balance of Fel Force in the next era.

This is not a bad thing.

This means that my Magic Prince and I will get more time to strengthen ourselves, until one day we will not rely on the power of others, but use our own hands to liquidate the shameful past that is carried on our own shoulders.

Therefore, I would say that today is just an unforgettable failure given to Sargeras. He will receive failures like this many times in the endless years to come.

Anyway, good luck and please hold on until we get there!"

After completing the communication, Azshara turned around.

She took a deep breath and told Diakum's idea to Medivh and Nether-Stalker. The two immediately began to prepare to modify the Pantheon energy circuit, and more Cipher of the First Ones was applied to correct the energy properties of this area.

Azshara does not need Pantheon to be permanently changed, she only needs this Arcane Holy Land to be able to assume its mission of being used as a "weapon" in the next battle.

The most difficult work must be undertaken by Azshara himself.

Under the gaze of other Titan Soul, she stepped towards the lightning Vantage Point left by Aman'Thul, just like Norgannon's posture when she returned to Pantheon. She stretched out her hand to touch the throne that symbolized Arcane Force's throne. Wisps of pure energy arcs surrounded her fingers and extended to her arms and body.

The Queen quietly felt this power. After a moment, she shook her head and said:

"This is not the path I want to take, don't worry, I'm just borrowing it temporarily."

After saying that, she turned around and sat on the Vantage Point. As her fingers flicked on the armrest of the throne, a more complex Cipher of the First Ones sequence appeared based on the filled Arcane Force, temporarily pouring the energy attribute of Pantheon into the direction she needed.

On the other side, in an unfamiliar galaxy, the advancing Diakum and Argus Lord stopped.

The formidable enemy of the star sea has not yet appeared in front of them, but the cosmic rays and abnormal energy tides of the star sea that are difficult to ignore have rolled into a storm of destruction, which is the spirit of Dark Titan when it is approaching.

It's like a Will roll beyond the VanCleef range.

Vigilant In the chaotic Destruction Storm, one can clearly see the illusion of Dark Titan wielding a sword in the sea of stars, and even the reflection of Battle of Nairan.

He seemed to be immersed in the scene, as if the unlucky ones facing Sargeras Starshatter Slash had been replaced by him.

He must use his willpower to withstand the invasion of such disaster illusions to confirm whether he has the ability and qualifications to stand in front of Sargeras's path to stop the supreme destructor in this world.

For Vigilant, those illusions of disaster are just a breeze blowing on the face.

After all, he had already repeled the incarnation of Dark Titan twice, and the destructive majesty of Sargeras had been completely "disenchanted" by him, but Argus Lord beside him felt a little stressed.

Diakum turned his head and glanced.

Argus has tightly clasped Crimson Star Scythe in his hand, and the cosmic flames burning on his body have swept into the shape of War Armor, obviously entering a fighting state.

"He won't arrive for a while, relax."

Vigilant reassured:

"Being tight like this will keep your will tense. Once you are nervous, you will easily make mistakes. Sargeras will not give you a second chance when you make a mistake. But if you think about the benefits, the biggest benefit when facing Dark Titan is probably here.

Anyway, no matter if you make a mistake or not, as long as you are caught with the opportunity, you will be taken away with one knife. It is like playing a hellish "clearance without injury" trick.

Either win or die.

There is no option of failure, so you don't have to worry about possible failure and can give it a try."

"You made it easy."

Argus reached out and touched the golden skull shield that was shattered by His own hands before. He released the Star Sickle in his hand. After a moment of silence, he asked:

"How can you maintain such a good attitude when facing Him? It's like all the pressure has been relieved. I can feel that you are even eager to try this battle."

"I told you, this is the "clearance moment"."

Vigilant joked:

"All my actions, all my efforts, all my persistence from the moment I opened my eyes until now are to ensure that I can stand here and face that crazy guy who wants to destroy everything.

It's like you spent more than ten years studying hard just for an exam that can determine your future.

When you realize that you don't waste too much time on meaningless things and can spend most of your energy in the right direction, the confidence from the inside out will make you naturally relaxed.

But if you suddenly realize that you don't actually work very hard and spend most of your time rewarding yourself, isn't it normal for you to panic, resist, and tremble with perseverance?

Even in a wonderful world of atheism, this shit like "fate" still exists.

I didn't waste time, so I was able to be honest."

"Well said."

Argus Lord nodded, but then said in confusion:

"But "more than ten years". Isn't this just a blink of an eye?"

"Metaphor! I'm just using a mortal's perspective to make a vivid metaphor. Lord, sometimes you are too serious. At such times, you should smile."

Vigilant shrugged, pointed at his gentle smile, and said:

"Like me, although Sargeras will most likely not be intimidated by this smile, it's better than challenging the Lord of Destruction with a grimace, right?"

"It's coming!"

Argus didn't have time to answer, so he looked ahead.

When Diakum turned around, he saw a fiery red "shooting star" passing through the dim nebula, like a burning flame, igniting everything around it as it walked, no matter what existed there, no matter what had been there and what would be born in the future.

When the footsteps of destruction approach, everything will burn, and all that will be left behind is a trail of ashes Ashen Path.

It's like Sargeras's most perfect annotation of his own life, and it's like Dark Titan's most detailed description of his future. He came to the sea of stars to use weapons, and he entered this place to commit crimes.

How can such a flame be connected with the truth, goodness and beauty in this world?

Such an evil god will only create endless tragedies that kill Annihilation in this sea of stars.

Sargeras used the giant claws to tear apart the surrounding fire of destruction. The burning sword of Gorehowl, the Dark Boils in his hand had already accumulated enough destructive momentum along the way.

When this sword is slashed out, it will definitely change the color of Xinghai Fengyun.

But luckily, Diakum also has a sword, and its name is "Dawn God-Sword".

Look, the stack of wonderful Heaven's Reckoning is about to be full. It's time to have a hearty Divine Storm to complete this epic feat of "Taishou Jiumao".
