No God Emperor caught Souta's sword and then he lifted his feet before launching a devastating kick at Souta's stomach.
Bang!
Souta was blown away and crashed on the nearby debris of rocks.
No God Emperor turned his attention to the old man and the remaining four experts. He beamed when he saw their fearful look.
"The current era is quite beautiful, right? The rules are broken so gods can do whatever they want today. In my time, we are forbidden to use any sort of skills that could upset the balance of the world. Just like this..."
No God Emperor pointed his finger at the corpse nearby corpse. The old man and the four remaining experts waited for a few seconds but nothing happened. Only Souta saw exactly what happened with the corpse.
"I just erased him from this world so he wouldn't expect himself to be born once again." No God Emperor said but the others couldn't wrap their heads around it.
He simply destroyed the existence of man. He deleted him from this world. Even his soul was gone and couldn't return to the soul realm to undergo reincarnation.
"The Great Lambs are managing the balance of the world. They are like the administrators of this universe. There are many things that gods couldn't do. Altering the laws and changing the rules is one of them."
No God Emperor walked towards the old man and the four experts slowly while narrating what happened to the world.
"Gods could fight among themselves but if it affected the balance of the world then a Great Lamb would intervene. Are we really gods? I think not since restrictions are put on us. We are like a bird in a cage. So I decided to fight them."
Souta stood up and wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth. He didn't start another fight. He was curious about this story too and it would also give him a time to recover some of his stamina and best feram. It was actually favorable to him.
No God Emperor opened both of his arms widely and stared at the sky.
"I fought them. I tried to erase the current laws and rules of the Hall Plains but guess what... The Great Lambs arrived at my doorstep and a big battle occurred. I killed them but they kept coming at me. They manipulated my fate so I shattered my own fate and created one that no one could control."
The Imperium held every living being fate. No, Imperium created the fate of everyone. No God Emperor shattered his own fate and created a path that no one could control. Then, he ascended to godhood at that time. The Great Lambs couldn't prevent his ascension.
The Gods were different from mortal beings. They weren't bound by time, space, and fate. But No God Emperor was just a mortal at that time so his fate was controlled by Great Lambs. He had no choice but to shatter his own fate to successfully ascend to godhood.
After that, he fought two Great Lambs at the same time. He survived the battle and changed the rules of Hall Plains. He prepared himself to fight the entire Imperium. He gathered everything that he could to fight against the Imperium.
Most of the gods at that time decided to stay on the sideline. They just watched as the Great Lambs attacked the Hall Plains. He survived the calamity and successfully repelled the Great Lambs.
It was the start of his legends. He fought various gods before he was sealed using Heaven's Sealing Mountain.
"You have some amazing abilities but unfortunately you are too weak." No God Emperor said to the old man and the remaining four experts.
"You haven't seen everything, yet." The old man said in a low voice.
"Oh, then let me show you something you haven't seen in your life." No God Emperor said coldly.
The old man glanced at the four experts before he turned to No God Emperor. He shook his shoulders and several talismans flew out of his sleeves.
Swoosh! Swoosh!!
At the same time, the four experts snapped out of their thoughts. They quickly prepared themselves to help the old man in confronting the vile No God Emperor.
"I've locked the space again. I don't think it could hold him back but this is the best that I could do." The one who could control space said.
"I've stopped the time around him again." The one who could control time said.
"Let me." The old man said as he jumped in the air. He raised both of his hands and an image of buddha appeared behind him.
No God Emperor lifted his head and a smile formed on his face even if the time and space around him were frozen.
"You have the power of a buddha? That's not bad but you're not the real buddha... I can even fight a real buddha so you're nothing with me."
No God Emperor wasn't faced with the image of a giant buddha behind the old man. From his point of view, nothing could stop him unless a real buddha arrived here. If that happened, there was nothing he could do since he was only using a vessel. He couldn't release all of his powers in this state.
He slowly opened his mouth and said, "Archetype..."
'Not good...' Souta widened his eyes. He immediately looked at the old man and the four experts. "Focus on defense! No God Emperor will demolish this place!"
'Souta, run! Don't bother them anymore!' Saya said hurriedly.
At the same time, No God Emperor's energy level increased sharply. The space and land started to tremble as his best feram spread out in the whole area.
In an instant, the whole continent started to shake under the pressure of intense energy.
Bang!!
The space and time around the No God Emperor were shattered like a fragile glass. The old man widened his eyes and he was hit by a massive amount of energy. He tried to fight back but the energy pressure was too high. The image of a giant buddha behind him crumbled into tiny fragments.
Boom!!
[Archetype: Heaven's Downfall]!
[First Step: Overturning the Earth]!!
A thousand-meter-tall golden spear emerged from the sky. It was giving off a majestic vibe that pressured everyone into their knees.
"Shit!" Souta cursed looking at this.
This was the power of the true [Archetype]. The one that he was using wasn't even compatible with him and he haven't even mastered it. His proficiency couldn't even pass fifty percent.
He raised both of his hands and tried to erect as many barriers as he could. He also gathered a huge amount of blood to create a thick layer of blood dome around him.
He knew that he couldn't avoid this. He also wanted to keep the old man and the four experts but there was nothing he could do right now. The power of No God Emperor was beyond his current ability.
Souta couldn't even imagine how powerful the real body of the No God Emperor was.
"Die alongside this land..." These words came out of No God Emperor's mouth before the golden spear landed on the ground.
Boom!!
The thousand-meter-tall spear easily pierced through the land. Everything within the land started to shake as a massive amount of energy was channeled through the ground. The whole continent was shaken as a ripple of vast destruction energy was sent out in every direction.
The giant spear stood proudly oozing out a terrifying amount of energy.
In just a few seconds, almost everything on the surface was obliterated. All the population on the continent faced annihilation. Their bodies were disintegrated into tiny particles.
Bang!!
No God Emperor looked at the destruction of his attack with a calm face.
"This world is too fragile. This isn't even one percent compared to the power of my real body."
He was right. A god didn't need to attack a sub-world to cause destruction. Their presence alone was enough to obliterate most of the sub-worlds. The rules and concepts of sub-worlds were too weak.
No God Emperor stared at the golden spear and closed his eyes. He could feel that he was getting closer to freeing his real body.
The people that died in his attack were sacrificed. Their bodies and all their energy fueled the ritual. This made the sky look redder than before. It was like a sea of blood flowing in space.
"Just a little bit more and I..."
His next target was to completely destroy this sub-world. He would annihilate all the living beings on this planet. There was nothing they could do to stop him.
All the people who were watching the disasters were filled with despair the moment they saw the destructive power of the No God Emperor.
The largest continent on their planet suffered a total annihilation. The amount of power and energy could even be felt on other continents. All of their hopes crumbled instantly.
