With the Wind Eagle Armor's first appearance, the power unique to the Lord of the Ming Realm spread throughout the entire Multi-Universe!
The gods of the Multi-Universe rose in shock. The Lord of the Ming Realm had not appeared in over eight hundred years, and now his power had been activated again!
The gods immediately set off for the region of the Multi-Universe where the Eternals resided!
When they saw the blue suit of armor, all of them grew excited.
"That form, that power-there's no mistake. That's the power of the Lord of the Ming Realm!"
"What a strange law. It doesn't seem to belong to the six great laws of the omniverse."
"You noticed it too?"
"Where exactly did the Lord of the Ming Realm come from?"
The gods were puzzled.
So far, three suits of armor had appeared throughout the universe.
They were Flame Dragon, Snow Mastiff, and the newly emerged Wind Eagle Armor!
"What terrifying power. I can sense a law in this armor that doesn't belong to the omniverse!"
The Serpent God Set was stunned, but his blood-red, slit-pupiled eyes brimmed with greed.
He had to obtain such terrifying power!
Although Horton had grown powerful in the Wind Eagle Armor, ascending straight to multiverse-level, Set still thought little of him.
He was one of the oldest Dimension Demons in the universe, with truly terrifying strength!
Even outside his own dimension, he possessed the terrifying power of a peak multiverse-level being!
Yet to the gods' surprise, Horton was the first to attack!
A streak of blue light tore across the universe, reaching Set in an instant as Horton raised his fist and punched hard!
"You have a death wish!"
Set struck with his palm. Dark green poisonous mist erupted, and a thick stench of blood filled the air!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two plunged straight into close-quarters combat!
They traded blows at incredible speed, every punch striking flesh. Their figures were impossible to make out as blue light and green divine radiance exploded everywhere above and below, their terrifying power shattering countless stars!
Bam!
Then Set slammed a fist into Horton's head!
Clad in the Wind Eagle Armor, Horton hurtled toward the ground like a meteor.
"Wind Eagle Sword!"
Horton summoned the Wind Eagle Armor's exclusive weapon.
"A divine weapon!"
Set's eyes flashed as he flicked his scarlet, forked tongue.
"Wind-Piercing Stab!"
Without hesitation, Horton unleashed the Wind Eagle Armor's finishing move!
Hum!
Deep blue energy gathered, forming a finisher card.
It was the Wind-Piercing Stab Finisher Card!
The instant the Wind-Piercing Stab Finisher Card appeared, the majestic voice of the Heavenly Dao resounded throughout the universe!
"Subdue demons and transform beasts, break them with the gale, end them in an instant!"
Crack!
The finisher card burst apart, its deep blue fragments merging into the Wind Eagle Sword.
Horton slashed his sword!
Hum!
A blue sword projection pierced the void and shot toward Set!
"Hmm?"
Surprise flickered in Set's eyes. This attack actually made him feel a hint of danger.
Without thinking, he crossed his arms to block it!
Boom!
The deep blue sword light roared past, drawing a spray of green blood!
"Green blood? The Serpent God Set was actually wounded!"
"How terrifying! That boost in strength all came from the Lord of the Ming Realm's armor!"
"What would it take to obtain power like that?"
The gods were utterly shaken.
Within a spatial rift somewhere in the Multi-Universe, All-Father Odin was also watching the battle.
Just then, the scene before him changed, revealing a vast, white river.
Odin's expression changed drastically. "The river of fate? His power actually drew the river of fate's attention?"
A moment later, a wave rose from the river of fate.
Odin immediately saw that the wave revealed the future of the Asgardians!
In the vision, a woman in black robes ascended to the supreme divine throne, becoming the first female God King since the founding of the Norse pantheon!
"Hela?!"
Odin's eyes widened. The black-robed woman in the vision was Hela, the daughter he had personally cast into Helheim, never to rise again!
But that was not all.
In the vision, a majestic figure clad in white-and-gold armor appeared behind Hela.
Even more shocking to Odin, Hela, who by then was the Norse God King, knelt before that figure on one knee, her expression utterly reverent!
The scene changed again.
The majestic figure in white-and-gold armor extended a hand.
In an instant, supreme imperial might spread, and the entire universe shattered. The Colored Celestials, notorious throughout the universe, were annihilated in a flash!
"This... this... the Lord of the Ming Realm???"
"How could... how could this..."
Odin trembled uncontrollably, unable to believe what he had seen.
Then the vision shown by the river of fate jumped back to the time of Ragnarok. In that period, Asgard was destroyed, and the Norse pantheon vanished completely!
"I understand now..."
Odin closed his eyes in pain. He knew the river of fate was asking him to make a choice.
If he stubbornly persisted in suppressing Hela, the Asgardians and Asgard would be destroyed by the Flame King Surtur and the Fire God Loki, ceasing to exist!
But if he allowed Hela to take the throne, she would pledge allegiance to the Lord of the Ming Realm. Under his protection, Asgard would crush the Colored Celestials and become the most powerful force in the entire universe!
After a long while, Odin opened his eyes. He stopped watching the battle and left at once.
Feeling the searing pain in his body, the excitement on Serpent God Set's ugly face only grew. "As expected of the Lord of the Ming Realm's power. It actually allowed a weakling like you to wound me!"
Horton held the Wind Eagle Sword, his face grave beneath his armor. "The gap is too great. Even with the Lord of the Ming Realm's power, I can't contend with a Dimension Demon..."
Whoosh!
Set's figure flickered. He appeared before Horton and slammed a fist into his head!
Bam!
Horton was sent flying by the punch. The Wind Eagle Armor on his body burst apart, reverting to its original blue crystal form.
Lu Chen was a little disappointed. "Only twenty percent compatibility, far below Xi Zhao. He's still too inexperienced. A few thousand more years of cultivation would bring him to one hundred percent."
Set walked up to Horton, flicking his scarlet, forked tongue, a savage smile covering his ugly face. "Young man, don't think you can do whatever you please just because you have the Lord of the Ming Realm's protection. An ant relying on borrowed power like you cannot stand against a Dimension Demon."
Horton lay facedown on the ground, his face covered in blood and twisted with pain.
"This armor is mine now."
Set's eyes burned with desire.
Just then, a gentle voice rang out unexpectedly.
"A pleasure to meet you, Serpent God Set."
Lu Chen stepped out of the void.
"The Lord of the Ming Realm? Damn it!"
Serpent God Set let out a low growl, irritated. Had he known the Lord of the Ming Realm would come, he would have used his full strength to seize the armor from the start.
"The Lord of the Ming Realm!"
"He's here!"
"Another great battle is about to begin!"
Countless gods throughout the Multi-Universe erupted with excitement!
Lu Chen raised a hand. The wood law enveloped Horton, healing all his injuries in the blink of an eye.
