Good People Started Appearing All Around Him

Just as Naimus had not intended to immediately kill Gotthard and the others before making the Azure Sky Whale independent—not because he did not want to, but because he had postponed it.

The same went for the Saint. It was not that he would not kill him, but that he would kill him later.

His opponent was currently injured.

For an individual at the Saint's level, injuries were generally rare.

Or rather, a Saint could recover from most injuries in the blink of an eye.

Even some Golden Breeds could casually speak of "a mere fatal wound."

Only severe injuries that damaged one's foundation could prevent a Saint from recovering so easily.

Even a Saint would need a long time to eliminate the root cause of such injuries.

The higher the energy level of something, the harder it was to truly damage. Yet once it was truly damaged, the harder it was to truly repair.

Especially now, when the God of Precepts was in terrible condition. If He had difficulty healing Himself, there was practically no chance He could spare the effort to treat the Saint.

Therefore, the Saint's combat power was bound to decline during this period.

As long as Naimus completed any one or two of the four tasks—advancing his true Demon form, growing as a Legendary Breed, extracting Sword Saint Rank, or completing Angel A—before the Saint recovered, he would find an opportunity to kill the Saint.

Gods generally could not descend into the Material Plane. Saints were their representatives, their hands and feet.

Killing a Saint would greatly reduce a god's ability to interfere with the Material Plane.

From the moment he obtained the Divinity, Naimus was destined to stand against the God of Precepts. He had to strike at his enemy as soon as possible.
