"M-My power—what's happening to my power?" The Evil God-King tried to stabilize his divine power, but it was useless. The rate of loss only accelerated.
The others were the sa—Supre God-King… God-King… First-Rank God.
In no ti, all had fallen to first-rank, weaker than before. And the drain didn't stop, as if it wouldn't end until they were sucked dry.
For so reason, they couldn't mobilize their divine power at all.
"Hehe. Make a deal with a demon, and you bear the consequences," Evil Sword Immortal said.
The five God-Kings were like greedy mortals tempted by a demon, craving demonic power.
But borrow from a demon and it's like loan-sharking—you not only repay, you repay with interest.
Only now did the gods notice black beams coursing through the Sin Array. They recognized the energy—it was the power of the Evil Spirit Pearl.
So the pearl hadn't dissipated. It had dispersed its power throughout the array, then forcibly seized control of the formation from the Seven Sins.
The five God-Kings, the Rakshasa God, and the Seven Sins had absorbed too much of the pearl's power. Now that energy within them was being controlled by the pearl; it wasn't theirs to command. They couldn't even force their way out of the formation.
"This guy plans to use the Sin Array to refine us instead. That Evil Spirit Pearl isn't so super or supre artifact—it's far beyond even that!" Asura finally grasped Evil Sword Immortal's plan—too late.
An artifact that could restrain five Supre God-Kings couldn't be rely supre.
"Correct. In truth, Jun Tianlin's Demon-Supressing Sword and the complete Demon Sword are supre artifacts. The fully unleashed Evil Spirit Pearl stands above them. It surpasses 'supre,' but your God Realm has no term for artifacts beyond that. Allow . If mine were a righteous divine weapon, it would be a Creation Artifact. Alas, it represents ultimate evil, so let's call it a World-Destroying Artifact." Evil Sword Immortal spoke as if it were obvious.
"Beyond supre, nad Creation or Destruction… fitting. But I won't let you succeed." Asura roared, manifesting an energy-ford Asura Demon Sword to slash at Bibi Dong.
But now his strength had fallen below second rank, and he couldn't mobilize divine power. The sword in his hand was false. No matter his swordsmanship, it was useless. Bibi Dong simply raised a hand and flung him away.
"Why bother? Sit still and let drain you—an easy death. Why struggle?" Evil Sword Immortal said impatiently.
The other four God-Kings were shaken. Breaking the array from outside was impossible.
Just then, three decent powers rattled the formation—Qian Renxue, Chen Xin, and the Strength God.
A first-rank god wasn't a fool. With the five God-Kings' power plumting like this, if he still blocked the other two, his brains must have been eaten by Luo Sanpao.
Unfortunately, three first-rank gods alone couldn't shake one of the God Realm's three great arrays.
"Stop! Strength God, you can't break this. Go find the Seven Elent Gods. Only the Elental Divine Punishnt Descent, another of the three grand arrays, can break the Sin Array." Even now, the calst was the Goddess of Goodness. She had absorbed the least energy from the pearl and so was being drained slowest.
As the highest God-King who had governed for ages, her judgnt was beyond doubt.
"Yes!" The Strength God obeyed and flew toward the Seven Elents' domain. Only he could do this—Qian Renxue and Chen Xin were new to the realm.
"Going for the Seven Elents? Those seven together are a bit troubleso," Evil Sword Immortal muttered, though unbothered. By the ti they arrived, he could drain the five God-Kings and the Seven Sins, plus the Rakshasa.
Then, even the Elental Grand Array would be helpless. They would all die.
He poured more power from the pearl. The Seven Sin Gods' seven rings of light, once signifying first-rank gods, had dimd to a flicker of a single ring; at this point they couldn't beat a third-rank god.
"I can't… Evil Sword Immortal, please spare . Have you forgotten? Back on Douluo Continent, I helped you. I was bewitched this ti and made a terrible choice. If you spare , I'll leave the God Realm at once and never appear before you again. I've already passed on my god position."
Seeing the situation, the Rakshasa God switched sides yet again.
Normally, Destruction would have blasted him to ash with a bolt of annihilation. But now Destruction couldn't muster any power.
"Rakshasa—worthy avatar of evil thoughts: greedy and craven. You lack none of the negative emotions." The Evil Spirit Pearl gathered again, and a handso, devilish man erged—Evil Sword Immortal's true body. Aside from appearing before Xue Bing, this was his first ti appearing openly.
He had the confidence now. After draining the Seven Sins and the five God-Kings, he was fully ford, beyond Supre God-King and about to step into God-Emperor.
"Yes, my lord, I am despicable. Killing is pointless. Please spare ." The Rakshasa God pleaded again.
"Rakshasa, you're not only evil—you're stupid. Don't you know your kind is my favorite food?" Evil Sword Immortal pinched his head. A surge of power shattered the body; the soul beca a blood mist.
He opened his mouth and inhaled the mist, then licked his lips. "Tasty. Pity there wasn't more."
"Who's next?" His gaze swept around. "Of course, you Seven Sins. Your flavor entices most."
"But I still need you to maintain the formation, so you're the main course. Before that, a dessert."
He looked to the Evil God-King.
"Damn it!" The Evil God-King ground his teeth, furious and humiliated. Since the dawn of the God Realm he had been a highest God-King; today he had beco a lamb to the slaughter.
The Seven Elent Gods hadn't arrived; Qian Renxue and Chen Xin couldn't break the array. All hope seed lost.
At that mont, as Asura raged, he suddenly felt a loosening. His power hadn't returned, but sohow he could use it.
"I can use my power? Does that an…? Good. Evil Sword Immortal, you won't succeed now." Though not fully certain, Asura wouldn't waste the chance. He knew his current strength couldn't threaten Evil Sword Immortal, but that seemingly perfect plan had a fatal flaw.
