The Serpent God Orobas Became an Invader to Protect His People and Seek Death; Raiden Shogun Ei Gave Him a Dignified End with One Slash, Astonishing the Dragon God

An aura deeper, more ancient, and more ominous than that of the Lightning Bird pierced through the Light Screen, causing several god- Royal Capital of the God Realm Committee to frown slightly.

Lei Xiang and Tian Hen felt the suppression in their bloodlines, a pressure from a higher-level life form.

The crisis is far from over.

The tragedy of the Lightning Bird was merely a tiny, insignificant microcosm of the catastrophe known as the "Archon War."

But Raiden Shogun Ei's battle has only just begun.

In those enormous serpentine eyes, there was no fury or madness of the Lightning Bird, only a deathly silent Abyss.

It seemed to contain the weight of an entire world; merely looking at it made everyone's soul tremble.

"So... such a strong sense of oppression!" Lei Xiang's face turned pale instantly. His Martial Soul was the Thunder Eagle, originally the overlord of the sky, but at this moment, under the pressure of that deep-sea Great Beasts, his bloodline seemed to be frozen.

Tian Hen's situation wasn't much better; the Dragon Clan bloodline within him was issuing a frantic warning—an absolute suppression originating from the level of life itself!

"Ancient Demon God ..." The Dragon God's voice was deep, and for the first time, true solemnity appeared in His golden eyes. "This aura is even above that of many First-level Deities back then."

These words shocked the entire audience!

Stronger than First-level Deities? What does that even mean?!

On the Light Screen, the giant snake moved!

Its massive, mountain-like body churned the deep sea, creating towering waves, and the entire Watatsumi Island trembled violently.

Its target was none other than the other side of the sea, Narukami Island, where the Raiden Shogun Ei was set!

"This is... a preemptive attack?" Emperor Dai Hao frowned, analyzing from an Emperor's perspective. "Launching a general offensive by sea is the most direct, but also the most foolish, tactic."

"It doesn't look like a mindless magical beast." Zhou Weiqing also noticed something was wrong. "With such a huge body, it's such an obvious target; it's practically a sitting duck."

However, the giant serpent did not hesitate at all.

It cleaved through the sea, unleashing towering waves that blotted out the sky, and charged straight toward Narukami Island! Its momentum was less like invasion and more like a resolute and unwavering journey!

Just then, a bolt of purple lightning tore through the sky.

Raiden Shogun Ei stood suspended atop the Tenshukaku, staring expressionlessly at the colossal structure.

"She's about to make her move!" Everyone's hearts tightened.

How will she deal with such a terrifying Demon God?

However, to everyone's surprise, lines of golden text appeared on the Light Screen, revealing the suffocating truth behind the war.

[The Demon God Orobas of the distant sea, in the dark Enkanomiya, glimpsed the world's taboos, thus angering the Heavenly Principles.]

[A Heavenly Principles decree has been issued, ordering the extermination of Orobas and his people.]

Heavenly Principles?

What's this?

The several God King of the God Realm Committee exchanged glances, all seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

What kind of terrifying "Heavenly Principles" could possibly condemn such a powerful Demon God to death?

"To protect its people from being implicated by ' Heavenly Principles '..." Tang San murmured to himself, instantly understanding everything. "That's why it must launch a desperate attack on another Demon God as an invader!"

"It's not seeking victory, it's seeking death!" Huo Yuhao's eyes were filled with shock. "It wants to use its defeat and death to buy its people a reason to survive under the protection of the ' Victors '!"

Offering oneself to the tiger!

To die for life!

The entire hall was deathly silent!

Everyone was utterly shocked by Orobas's tragic yet resolute plan!

"A king, for the sake of his people, could actually go to such lengths..." Xue Ye trembled slightly. He thought of his Heaven Dou Empire, and his people. If it were him, could he have such awareness and courage?

"This is the true king!" Emperor Dai Hao slammed his fist on the table, his tiger-like eyes filled with admiration and regret. "To die in a war of aggression is far more dignified than to be silently erased by so-called ' Heavenly Principles '! It preserves the dignity of his people!"

They finally understood what the lifeless Abyss in the giant serpent's eyes truly was.

That was the embodiment of a civilization's hope, a willingness to die for its cause!

"So, Raiden Shogun Ei... does she know all this?" Ning Rongrong's voice trembled slightly.

The image on the Light Screen answered her question.

Faced with the roaring giant snake, Raiden Shogun Ei slowly closed his eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, the confusion and pain she felt when facing the Lightning Bird were gone, replaced by a pure respect for her as an opponent.

She understood Orobas's determination.

She decided to personally respond to this realization!

The next moment, endless lightning gathered in her hand, and a katana radiating extreme destructive power was slowly drawn from her chest!

"This strike..." Rong Nianbing's pupils suddenly contracted. As the God of Emotion, he could clearly feel the will contained within that strike. "It's not anger, not judgment... but, the end!"

"This is the highest tribute to a worthy opponent!" Ji Dong said in a deep voice, as if he could see himself Burning Everything for the sake of the Lie Yan.

[The One Hundred Thousand!]

A purple blade of light swept across the heavens and earth in an instant!

The light wasn't dazzling, yet it seemed to split the entire world in two! Space, time, Laws... everything lost its meaning before that single strike!

Orobas's enormous body was split in two from head to tail.

Even the island beneath it was forever cleaved in two by this single strike, leaving behind a bottomless, enormous canyon— the Musou Isshin!

There was no violent explosion, no painful screams.

Orobas's life force Nihility instantly under that single strike.

Its massive skeleton became part of the island, remaining on this land forever.

The battle is over.

It happened so fast that no one had time to react.

"So... so strong..." He Caitou opened his mouth wide, unable to utter a word for a long time.

That was an ancient Demon God comparable to First-level Deities! And yet... it was instantly killed with a single strike?

"This strike has transcended the realm of mere power." The Dragon God's voice carried an unprecedented seriousness. "This is a strike at the level of 'concept.' Once she locks onto you, you will 'definitely' be struck, 'definitely' die. It is incomprehensible, undefendable, and unavoidable."

"She granted Orobas its wish," Gu Yuena sighed softly, a complex emotion flickering in her eyes. "With the strongest force, she gave it the most dignified end. But what burdened her heart as she wielded that blade?"
