Constructing domains with magic is Ming Ge's forte.

Based on this premise, Ming Ge is able to expand the domain of his powers, that is, to expand the domain within the domain, a nested two-stage domain.

"A realm built of storms and death, huh? How astonishing."

With the speed of Phoenix reaching the realm of gods, Verethragna barely managed to escape the battlefield.

His body was covered in blood, and he had reached his limit.

In terms of fundamentals, the two are on equal footing, but that's only the basics. In terms of power and the amount of magic, there is an absolute gap between them.

Furthermore, Ming Ge is not the type of Campione!, but rather a king of mages who can weave various "reason" level magics based on his power!

"Interesting, absolutely fascinating!"

Verethragna laughed loudly, "In the past, no matter what kind of battle I faced, I was able to remain undefeated, but you are the first person to give me the feeling that I cannot defeat you."

"I must admit, you are stronger than I am now."

There was absolutely no opening, not even his Golden Sword could be used.

Moreover, Verethragna was unaware that Ming Ge's domain was currently open to the outside world. Even if he were to sever his connection with this world, he would only be severing the power projected from the Starry World to the outside.

The realm may collapse, but power will never be sealed.

Ultimately, the Starry World is also a part of Ming Ge; his body and soul have long since merged with the Starry World.

Their bodies are like a constellation of stars; if they were truly sealed, even Ming Ge would be sealed away all at once.

But given Verethragna's abilities, it's simply impossible for him to do that.

"Do you want to surrender?"

Ming Ge raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Even in defeat, I will end my life as a warrior.

Verethragna smiled slightly and began chanting the incantation.

"For victory, come quickly before me! Immortal sun, grant me a radiant steed. Divine and wondrous steed, swiftly bring me the halo of your lord!!"

Verethragna launched the White Horse.

This incarnation possesses the power to move the sun; essentially, it moves the sun over, rather than the sun itself.

However, this is irrelevant, because in terms of sheer power, the White Horse is by no means inferior.

"The Death Storm will engulf it."

Ming Ge slowly opened his mouth, and a black storm swept out. As soon as it appeared, the spiritual horse that carried the sun was completely swallowed up.

Like a gentle ripple on the surface of water, it swallowed it up.

The death from Thanatos and the storms from Rudra together formed the Black Wind that could devour everything.

At that very moment, Verethragna had already precisely pierced the Golden Sword into the node of the Starry World, producing a cracking sound.

"Too slow."

The connection of the projection was severed, but because the full power of the Golden Sword could not be unleashed, the connection was only weakened.

If his power were a hundred times stronger, he might be able to sever the connection between the stars projected to the outside world, which serve as the battlefield.

But now, it's too weak.

"Disappear— Karmic Retribution."

This strike landed on Verethragna in a causal manner.

His body gradually shattered, turning into ashes and dissipating.

At that moment, Ming Ge also felt a pulling sensation.

"So you've finally arrived, Pandora."

Ming Ge's lips slowly curved upwards.

Chapter 169 The Clever Pandora

The Stars were created based on the God-Eater Jade. If Ming Ge wanted to, she could directly devour her opponent, regardless of whether she had deployed her domain.

And don't forget, he also has a second-stage God-specific attack.

It's equivalent to the Dungeon's creation of a special attack against gods, plus Ming Ge's second-stage special attack. As long as a god possesses divinity or divine status, they basically cannot escape this range.

Unless the opponent's power reaches the level of the solar system, Ming Ge has no other choice. Given the difference in power, he can at most "bite" off a portion of the opponent's divine essence.

Verethragna simply couldn't possibly possess a level of power exceeding that of a planet, meaning that Ming Ge could easily annihilate him if he wanted to.

The reason I didn't do that, besides just playing along, was also because I wanted to try and meet Pandora.

"It seems that even though my Soul Materialization, I am still human in Pandora's eyes."

Ming Ge closed her eyes, then her body and soul transformed, and she was drawn directly to the Hidden World.

After all, he had already achieved the Soul Materialization; his body was his soul, so naturally it had to come along with him.

Incidentally, even if Pandora doesn't intend to help him, Ming Ge will wait for Kusanagi Shizuka to become Campione!, and then use that connection to steal Pandora's home base.

"Another baby has been born. Is this the seventh one?"

At the border between life and immortality, the ritual began, Pandora murmured.

Being the seventh, or even possibly the eighth, of the same era made Pandora both happy and worried about the existence of the Last King.

"There's nothing we can do but let things take their course."

Pandora the cat sighed.

"What boat will straighten itself when it reaches the bridge?"

Ming Ge appeared beside Pandora and asked.

"Whoa!!"

Pandora suddenly bristled, almost jumping up in fright.
