"Your body is on the brink of collapse, your Cosmo drained!"
"Joining a battle of this level will crush you to dust in an instant!"
"If you die in this divine war, all our plans will collapse!"
"What are you thinking?"
Athena's voice carried unprecedented shock and anger.
"I'm betting!"
"Betting my instincts are right."
Kaiser forced a smile, his gaze piercing the chaotic battlefield.
It locked onto the two orbs poised to destroy everything.
At that mont, a faint but clear pulse, ancient and compassionate, emanated from the warm World Tree seed in his possession!
As if an ancient will, dormant for eons, was awakened by this realm-shaking war.
Through the seed, it resonated faintly with Kaiser's near-exhausted Cosmo!
"Buzz!"
As if answering Kaiser's call and the seed's pulse, a vast, warm, wisdom-filled golden light erupted from his soul!
"You're hopeless."
"Fine, let's bet!"
"Let's see if the World Tree's will favors you!"
Athena's voice shifted from anger to a mix of resignation and admiration.
And the majestic divine might of the goddess of war and wisdom!
Kaiser's tattered Cloth blazed with unprecedented light!
No longer Libra's gold, but a sacred platinum glow fused with his divine blood.
Beneath his cracked skin, golden-red blood shimred with divinity!
"Arghhh!"
Unimaginable pain seared every nerve!
Bearing main god-level power, his body felt like fracturing porcelain.
Bones groaned, veins snapped, his soul thrust into a furnace!
But amidst the agony, a stronger will sustained him.
The will to protect! To change fate!
Ignoring his body's collapse, he burned his life essence, rging it with his remaining Cosmo.
"Domain Expansion! Weapon Sanctuary!"
A golden Gungnir appeared in Kaiser's hand.
All the power of Athena's divinity and the World Tree seed's resonance poured unreservedly into the Eternal Spear.
"Sacred Spear, Unanchor!"
"Pierce the world, Gungnir!"
"Pierce the fate of Ragnarök!"
Kaiser roared beyond his limits! He raised Gungnir high.
With a step, space quaked.
The earth cracked beneath him.
Gungnir flew, its rainbow glow illuminating the Nine Realms.
Kaiser's target wasn't Nidhogg's indestructible body.
But the two clashing sun-moon destruction orbs clutched by its shadowy claw.
This light was the hope of the Nine Realms.
The gods' hope, the eternal light to shatter Nidhogg's despair.
Runes erged on Gungnir's shaft.
A mark of order cleaving chaos!
The left bore cyan flas of absolute justice and judgnt, Kaiser and Athena's power.
The right glowed erald with life and balance, the World Tree's resonance with Kaiser.
At its core, Gungnir's innate runic power!
The three lights wove spirally, embodying cosmic truth.
A colossal spear shadow spanned the sky.
This spear, fusing Kaiser, Athena, the World Tree, and runic wills, ignored spatial barriers, striking precisely between the raging sun-moon orbs.
Three laws erupted.
Crack!
An invisible shackle snapped!
Nidhogg's forced suppression and fusion of the sun-moon energies was cracked by the spear of light.
"Damn it! Why is there a second Gungnir?"
"Has this mortal already claid the World Tree's seed?"
The evil god igniting Ragnarök roared in shock and rage.
Even Loki looked bewildered.
Worse, the light of three divine forces, like a spark in oil, ignited the inherent conflict within the sun-moon power Nidhogg had suppressed.
The sun's explosive radiant force!
The moon's frigid yin essence!
Utterly opposed, like water and fire!
"No!!"
Nidhogg's true body roared in fury and shock.
It felt the two energy cores, key to Ragnarök, spiral out of control the mont the spear struck!
Not detonated by Nidhogg, but by Gungnir, igniting their internal conflict!
"Boom! Sizzle!!!"
No annihilating explosion, but a horrific energy clash within Nidhogg's core.
Blinding white coronal fire and soul-freezing blue lunar essence, like two apocalyptic dragons, tore, canceled, and annihilated each other in the claw's grip.
Space ripped into countless black cracks, ti warped chaotically.
This sudden internal implosion, from its own core, far surpassed external attacks.
Nidhogg's massive body stiffened, searing pain radiating from its decay-scaled claw.
It was backlashed by the sun-moon power.
Its shadow exploded, the force spreading to its body.
Pain made it tremble.
Its grip on Odin's Gungnir slackened montarily!
Its nether-fla dragon eyes reflected disbelief for the first ti.
It had taken Kaiser seriously.
Yet a frail, near-dead mortal had disrupted its apocalyptic gambit?
Even with Athena's divine blood, he was a re mortal.
Not even a third-tier god by life essence.
Yet he unleashed such power.
"Now! Pierce fate, Gungnir!"
Odin, the cunning God-King, seized the opportunity Kaiser created at the cost of his life!
His hair and beard flared, his single eye blazing through the void, his late Tenth Sense Cosmo burning unrestrained.
The near-shattered Eternal Spear, gripped by the dragon claw, erupted with light billions of tis brighter than the sun.
"Buzz!!!"
Gungnir's hum shook the Nine Realms!
Cracks on its shaft nded with surging divine power, a force of Asgard's myriad gods' faith.
Odin's lifelong wisdom and resolute will exploded!
"Pfft!!"
The golden Eternal Spear, carrying Odin's godhead-burning resolve, broke free of the slackened claw.
A streak piercing past, present, and future, it struck Nidhogg's true body beneath its reverse scale, the core of death and decay!
"Roar!!!"
A scream billions of tis more anguished erupted from Nidhogg.
Not its shadow, but its colossal true body.
Gungnir, bearing Odin's peak divine power, ravaged, purified, and destroyed within.
Black divine blood, thick with deathly aura and the World Tree's decayed roots, poured from the gaping wound like an apocalyptic flood.
Where it fell, the Nine Realms' barriers corroded into massive holes, Vanaheim's seas beca dead zones, and space wailed as it dissolved!
The sun-moon implosion and Gungnir's piercing strike dealt Nidhogg, the apocalyptic dragon plotting for eons, its heaviest blow since the war began.
Its sky-shrouding body writhed and spasd, its wings stirring chaotic storms.
Dragon blood, laced with destructive energy, rained down!
The battlefield fell deathly silent!
Thor forgot to swing his hamr, staring at the writhing black mountain.
Frigg's light spear froze, her eyes wide with shock.
Hela's deathly vortex stalled, her beautiful half-face etched with disbelief.
Loki's sly grin stiffened, a flicker of doubt in his eyes.
Even the ferocious Jörmungandr paused its assault on Thor, its massive serpent eyes fixed on the gravely wounded Black Dragon King Nidhogg.
All gazes instinctively turned to the source of the light.
Above Midgard.
Kaiser's figure floated there.
The Libra Cloth shone with an unprecedented platinum divine glow, holy and majestic.
Yet his body resembled a cracked glass figurine.
Golden-red divine blood seeped from the fissures, dripping and turning into burning golden sparks in the void.
His aura was faint, like a candle in the wind, his life's fla on the verge of extinction.
Only his unwavering throwing stance proved the strike was his.
Proof that the fate-altering, god-shaking blow was no illusion.
Brünhild covered her mouth, tears falling silently. She saw Kaiser's pupils beginning to fade.
At that mont.
"!@￥…"
An ancient, distant sigh, as if from the universe's dawn, resonated in every being's soul.
The obscure words were indistinct.
At Kaiser's position, a verdant seed appeared before him.
The World Tree's seed!
Sensing Kaiser's near-death state, it erupted with indescribable erald radiance.
The light wasn't blinding but held the purest, most boundless life essence.
It gently enveloped Kaiser's crumbling body.
Like a mother's hand, it soothed the ghastly cracks, nourishing his depleted life source.
"You idiot, you actually bet right!"
Athena, through her divine link, sensed the scene.
The overwhelming life force was the World Tree's seed.
Simultaneously, at the Nine Realms' center, under the gods' awestruck gazes, a colossal World Tree shadow erged, its roots piercing the nine realms, its canopy shrouding endless star seas.
Ancient and weathered, its branches flowed with the glow of the Well of Wisdom, the Well of Strength, and the Well of Fate.
Now, its main branches gently descended, their glowing tips faintly pointing to Midgard's sky.
To the small figure wrapped in life's green light.
The World Tree's will, awakened by his sacrifice and protection, gazed upon him!
"The World Tree's seed?"
"It rged with a mortal's body?"
"If the seed only now appeared, where did the second Gungnir co from?"
The question echoed in countless gods' minds.
Even Nidhogg, pierced by Gungnir and gravely wounded, stared in disbelief.
"The prophecy of Ragnarök."
"It's been broken."
A god murmured.
The battle had claid countless Asgardian and Vanir gods.
Though not to the prophecy's extent, it was close.
Several of the twelve Norse main gods had fallen.
The battle was fierce.
"Protect him."
Odin's voice thundered across the battlefield.
All gods surged toward Kaiser's body.
Since the World Tree chose him, he was the Nine Realms' last hope.
They didn't understand how a mortal's life essence could support the World Tree's sprouting.
But they trusted its choice.
Kaiser's eyes were closed.
His consciousness sank deep within.
The World Tree's seed had entered his inner world.
It took root.
His inner world began to evolve.
The ti-space laws in his divinity coiled around the seed.
The three books of Heaven, Earth, and Man beca three orbs, rging into the seed.
Athena's divine blood and the Pangu blood of Jiang Chen surged into the World Tree within him.
All his powers, unified by the World Tree, grew purer.
"Buzz!"
His Cosmo surged, reaching the peak of the Eighth Sense!
One step from the Ninth Sense, from forming a godhead.
"Rustle…"
The World Tree, having integrated his powers, began to nourish his body.
It grew taller.
The three orbs from the books beca three fruits.
Yet to bloom, they needed Kaiser's nurturing.
Even the Valhalla in his consciousness cast a shadow.
Within, countless figures flickered.
Those he'd marked in worlds he'd visited.
Kaiser had beco the god-king of this new World Tree seed's nascent world!
When the seed matured, he would be a new Creator God.
This was his world.
Even the Senzu Bean in his mouth, drawn by the seed, took root in his inner world, growing slowly.
Externally, Kaiser's shattered body healed rapidly under the World Tree's care.
In re dozens of seconds, he returned to his peak.
Stronger than ever!
"The tide has turned."
"We'll have to plan later."
Loki's eyes flickered.
This exceeded his expectations.
Ragnarök's progress seed halted.
No chance to continue.
Even Nidhogg, defeated and wounded, had lost.
Without Ragnarök's conditions, they had no chance to turn the tide.
"Retreat."
Loki's voice rang in the evil gods' ears.
Hela was silent, Jörmungandr withdrew its massive body.
Helheim's undead receded.
Nidhogg's form plumted toward Niflheim.
"We're not pursuing?"
Thor, watching the retreating evil gods, sounded anxious.
"Don't chase a cornered foe."
"Several main gods have fallen."
"We seem to have won, but not truly."
"Kaiser's existence brought hope to the Nine Realms."
Odin's body trembled; his clash with Nidhogg wasn't easy.
Fenrir remained dormant, Surtr still slumbered.
This wasn't the end, nor the conclusion.
Pursuing now, how many gods would remain?
