Morax's Rock Spear Split Space and Nailed the Demon God, the Sea Parted to Reveal Guyun Pavilion, Gu Yuena: This Is Laws
"With mortal bodies, they confronted the might of Gods..." Ye Yinzhu, the Qin Emperor, was completely shocked. "Their power, their will, were united by the shared belief of 'protection.' This is not an army, this is... a living city wall!"
"They know they can't win," Chang Gongwei said slowly, his voice tinged with respect, "But they also know what their duty is. As long as they are fulfilling their contract of 'guardianship,' they will not back down."
"Truly... a group of respectable warriors." Niu Tian, the Titan Giant Ape, felt sincere admiration for this pure will to protect. The Tai Tan felt the same way; their race guarded the Lake of Life and understood the weight of this responsibility best.
However, the power of the Demon God is far more complex than that.
Several Flood Dragon- like heads opened their massive mouths, spewing out beams of deep blue energy. Each beam contained the Laws corrosion and destruction, slamming fiercely against the golden barrier.
Click... Click...
Fine cracks began to appear on the barrier. Sweat beaded on the faces of the Thousand Rock Army Soldier, and some even bled from their mouths and noses, but not one of them let go of their weapons.
"No, the power gap is too great," Ji Dong asserted. He and Lie Yan exchanged a glance, both able to see that this kind of protection was limited. Mortals' Divine Power has its limits, and the power granted by the contract requires them to bear it with their lives.
"Shouldn't he make his move soon?" A'Dai (Mandun) subconsciously looked up at the sky, at the figure that remained standing still in the clouds.
Just moments before the golden barrier was about to shatter.
Morax moved.
He made no extra movements, but simply slowly raised one hand.
In an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, and the world fell silent.
The light of the entire world seemed to converge on his palm. The mountains surrounding Liyue Harbor began to rumble deeply, and on the ground, countless golden geomantic Elemental Energy surged madly towards the heavens like subjects summoned by Emperor.
"What terrifying elemental manipulation power this is!" Rong Nianbing, the Ice and Snow God, felt his very soul tremble. He was also a top expert in manipulating elements, but compared to what he saw before him, his so-called "Divine Domain" was simply child's play.
Golden energy gathered, compressed, and condensed in front of Morax.
A massive, indescribable Rock Spear began to slowly take shape.
It is not made of ordinary rock, but forged from the purest and most profound "Rules". Ancient and intricate Golden Patterns flow endlessly on the gun body, each pattern is like a microcosm of a mountain range, containing the supreme power to suppress heaven and earth and establish the order of the universe.
"God... Divine Punishment?" Bei Bei's voice was a little hoarse.
"No, this isn't Divine Punishment." Tang San's eyes were fixed on the Rock Spear, his Purple Demon Eye activated to its limit. "Punishment represents destruction. But this spear... what I sense from it is ' Order,' 'suppression'! It's not trying to destroy that Demon God, but rather using the Laws of the earth to set rules for it!"
Using the Heaven and Earth Laws, rules were set for a Demon God!
These words sent chills down the spines of all the God King present, including the Dragon God and Gu Yuena.
What a spirit! What strength!
In the Light Screen, Morax remained expressionless. He gripped the Rock Spear that pierced the heavens and earth, his arm muscles bulging slightly, before he suddenly hurled it forward!
There was no sound.
Wherever the Rock Spear passed, space was torn open with a dark rift, and time seemed to stretch out at that moment.
Everyone clearly saw that the Rock Spear, in a seemingly slow yet unavoidable manner, precisely pierced the rampaging Demon God's Minions.
The roaring Demon God's head appeared so small before the Rock Spear.
The energy beams they spewed melted away like ice and snow the moment they touched the Rock Spear.
Puff--!
A dull, piercing sound rang out.
The enormous Rock Spear pierced through several of the heads of the Osier's Kin in an instant, and, along with its massive body, hurtled fiercely towards the seabed!
Rumble rumble rumble--!!!
The ocean was forcibly split apart, and the seabed crust was directly pierced.
The arrogant Vortex Demon God didn't even have time to utter a mournful cry before it was pinned to the Deep Sea Bottom by the giant spear that fell from the sky!
The battle is over.
It all happened in just a few seconds.
From Morax's intervention to the suppression of the Demon God, it all happened so fast that no one could react in time.
The sea was calm, with only the ends of a few huge Rock Spear standing like mountain peaks on the surface, forming the later famous "Guyun Pavilion".
The entire Douluo God Realm was deathly silent.
Everyone was stunned speechless by this Imposing Divine Might strike.
"One...one strike..." The Dragon God's golden pupils were filled with disbelief. He considered himself the strongest in the Divine Realm, and even he would have to fight a hard battle against such a Demon God. It was impossible for him to suppress it so easily with a single strike!
"Is this the true strength of the ' Vago Rock, the Geo Archon '...?" Tang Wulin murmured, the Golden Dragon King Bloodline within him trembling wildly, a kind of awe stemming from his life instinct.
Gu Yuena's long silver hair swayed slightly, her feelings even more profound. As the Silver Dragon King, her control over the elements was equally superb, but Morax's display had transcended the realm of "control".
That was "creation," that was "decree."
Words spoken are law followed.
"I finally understand..." Tang San let out a long breath, his brain working at lightning speed, connecting the two battles together.
"He established the Thousand Rock Army and granted them the Authority of 'guardianship' so that they could deal with conventional threats and so that mortals would have the power to protect their homes. This is an example of his 'letting go'."
"But he never really left."
"When a cataclysmic Demon God, capable of upending civilization and defying mortals, appears, he, the ultimate creator and Guardian Deity of this contract, will personally intervene with Thunderous Might force to restore order and clear all obstacles for the civilization he protects!"
"He is both the Civilization's Guide and the Civilization's Guardian God ..." Ning Rongrong said softly. As the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she understood the meaning of "protection" and "support" best. "He bestowed glory upon mortals, but left the heaviest responsibility to himself."
"Let go, but don't abandon. Protect, but don't confine." In Lie Yan's eyes, the admiration had transformed into a blazing flame. "This is the true... King of Gods' Demeanor!"
The deathly silence of the Douluo God Realm did not last long.
While everyone was still immersed in the supreme divine power of that single shot that split the sea and slayed the Demon God, the Light Screen high in the sky shifted once more.
