With the destruction of the Ancestral Temple, the Portal also started flickering, as it grew weaker and smaller.
Seeing the portal's condition, the Lord of Upper Realm could only sigh in response. "Did I expect too much from him?"
He sighed, shaking his head lightly. The Portal became smaller and smaller, until it was only half a meter wide.
The Goddess of Life had an amused smirk on her face. She had planned so many things to deal with Karyk, but she never expected that she wasn't going to need anything at all. Her biggest enemy was already dead and not a threat to her anymore.
She couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment as well. Part of her had wanted the satisfaction of taking down Karyk herself, but she couldn't deny the relief of knowing that she was no longer in danger.
This had been the best day for her life as she finally controlled her Element completely. She was disappointed that her Element didn't grow into the Element of Life but she believed that it was only a matter of time.
Once she gained the Element of Life, she was convinced that no one in the world was going to be able to kill her.
"Now that I'm done here, I'll be leaving." The Goddess of Life stated. She wasn't humble before the Lord of Upper Realm, unlike before. She had already received what she worked so hard for.
Moreover, her strength was also much stronger. She considered herself to be on the same level as the Lord of Upper Realm.
The Lord of Upper Realm frowned. He reached out his hand to speak, but he stopped. His eyes instantly turned toward the portal.
The portal was the size of a football now, making it impossible for anyone to enter it. But at that moment, something crazy happened.
Two hands came out from the portal, grabbing the two sides of the portal. Normally, it was impossible to grab the portals, yet this was happening.
Not that the portal stopped from closing, but it became bigger. The hands forcefully made the portal bigger. Seeing the hands, the Lord of Upper Realm realized who this person was.
The rings on those fingers were completely identical to the ring that a certain someone wore while entering the Ancestral Temple.
Even the Goddess of Light stopped, feeling a chill run down her spine. She turned around, only to be stunned.
A unique and strange aura filled the surroundings. No one could grasp this aura, but under this aura, even the Lord of Upper Realm felt as if he was feeling a bit suppressed.
The portal was forcefully opened once again, becoming big enough for a person to pass through. Once the portal was big enough, dark shackles came out of the group, keeping the Portal in its place.
From the Stark white portal, a person finally stepped out. It was a man, with long hair cascading down his back. His clothes were dirty, covered in dust and dirt. However, even in these clothes, the man still appeared as Charmin as a Prince.
Seeing Karyk step out, the Goddess of Light frowned. Even after all that, the man had managed to survive?
She didn't know why, but even after she became so strong, she still felt an innate fear from Karyk. It was even worse since Karyk appeared different.
His eyes were still the same color, but there was something different in them, as if they were the eyes of a person who had seen through the world after living multiple lives.
Her hands were behind her back. She gathered her aura behind her, condensing them into a sword of light, ready to take the chance.
She grabbed the hilt of the Newly Created Sword, looking straight at Karyk.
As soon as Karyk looked at her, the woman moved like lightning. Her sword aimed straight at the chest of Karyk.
Karyk's eyes didn't reveal a surprise.
The Sword of the Goddess of Light stabbed straight through his heart.
"This time, stay dead!" The Goddess of Light exclaimed, glaring at Karyk.
"Life is so precious. Why do you want to give up yours?" A voice came from behind the woman. As soon as she heard the voice, she froze. This was Karyk's voice.
She couldn't understand how it was possible. She had just stabbed him. He was before her. How could he be behind her?
The Goddess of Light was in disbelief when she saw the person she had stabbed turn into smoke and disappear.
Living through so many lives, Karyk had long started considering the grudge between them insignificant. What was a mere thousand years of enmity when he lived tens of thousands of years through all those memories. But that didn't mean he could forgive everything.
The woman used him and she used Gabriel. Not only that, she also betrayed their home, simply for power. And even after all that, she didn't find up and kept trying to kill him even until the last moment.
"How?!" The woman exclaimed. She moved like lightning, and swung her Sword around.
This time, her sword sliced Karyk who stood behind her in two halves. Unfortunately, she felt even more distressed since the two halves turned into smoke.
"I've killed many innocent people in my life, while letting evil people like you survive," words fell in the years of the Goddess of Light.
The Goddess of Light felt as if she was going crazy. Her entire existence was shrouded in otherworldly powers as all the specks of light in the room turned into Weapons for her, creating a storm.
The Lord of the Upper froze the space around him, protecting himself from light. It was only his Domain around him, and no one could harm him, but the same couldn't be said about others.
There were hundreds of billions of specks of light in the room. Light was everywhere, becoming the strongest weapon. Even the throne in the hall was ripped to shreds in the attack.
