Chapter 235: Chapter235-The Overbearing Heaven Emperor Fist
The ancient voice echoed, instantly capturing everyone’s attention, their expressions grave and filled with dread.
Although they didn’t know who the speaker was, the resonance alone indicated that another God King-level powerhouse was present.
However, as the voice resonated through the air, Owen paid it no heed.
Having finally seized the opportunity to heavily injure the two God Kings, he wouldn’t stop just because someone told him to.
As Owen gathered energy at an even faster pace, preparing to strike down the two God Kings, a surge of rage erupted from the horizon, like a volcano erupting, painting half the sky red.
“You seek death!”
Accompanied by an intense roar, a streak of light tore through the heavens, rapidly closing the distance to Owen.
The three God Kings had already learned from previous encounters not to enter Owen’s domain, so they attacked from afar, keeping their distance.
In that moment, Owen felt an ominous sensation, as if death itself was watching him.
His scalp tingled, and his body instinctively wanted to evade, but he found that the surrounding space had been sealed off, leaving him unable to move.
Whoosh!
A blood-red glow expanded in Owen’s vision, ultimately transforming into a bloodstained spear.
The malevolent aura surged towards him, and an icy chill enveloped him, akin to a savage beast licking its lips, sending shivers down his spine.
Owen’s expression darkened as he channeled his strongest will into the Heaven Emperor Fist, unleashing a powerful strike that stirred the winds and caused the very void to cave in with the imprint of his fist.
However, this devastating blow, potent enough to kill a God King within the domain, dissolved upon contact with the spear’s malevolent aura.
The spear then surged forward, tearing through the void and piercing directly into Owen’s chest, causing torrents of blood to erupt uncontrollably.
The spear continued its relentless advance, driving Owen’s body into the ground, its tip trembling violently.
Owen was like a candied hawthorn on a stick.
Witnessing this, Leslie’s pupils constricted, her face filled with deep concern as the spear had come too swiftly for her to react.
Rachel nearby widened her eyes in shock and heartache; Owen had sacrificed so much for her, and now, with three God Kings attacking him, the situation had escalated to this point, partially due to her influence.
“Owen!”
As Leslie, Rachel, and the Dragon Princess rushed to Owen’s side to alleviate his injuries, Owen gritted his teeth and slowly pulled the spear out of his body.
The friction between the flesh and spear caused excruciating pain, but he didn’t hesitate.
Bang!
The bloodied spear fell to the ground with a heavy thud.
After removing it, a gaping hole the size of a bowl was visible in Owen’s chest.
Through this wound, his writhing organs could be seen, with the lingering blood-red aura resembling a twisted centipede, incessantly gnawing at his flesh.
For an ordinary mage, such a severe injury would be fatal.
Although the spear’s force had been diminished by the domain, it still drained a significant amount of his energy. Fortunately, Owen was no ordinary mage.
With the power of the Order of Life and the support of the Dark Domain, his wounds were healing rapidly.
The lingering malevolent aura evaporated, and flesh began to grow anew, quickly mending the gruesome injury on his chest.
Simultaneously, the energy he had lost was also rapidly replenished, his complexion regaining its color as the vigorous flow of blood turned his heart’s beating into the sound of war drums.
Everyone who had focused their efforts on Owen stared at him in disbelief.
Hadn’t he just been gravely injured? He seemed on the verge of collapse, yet in the blink of an eye, he had returned to full strength!
This was beyond abnormal!
Leslie and the others rushed to Owen’s side, sensing that his energy was returning to normal.
They breathed a sigh of relief, wiping the tears from their eyes.
Owen assessed his body and, finding no abnormalities, quickly extended his senses, feeling peculiar mana fluctuations.
He glanced at Leslie, who met his gaze and nodded, her expression grave as she said, “Our family members are starting to move.”
Owen calculated the time, then looked towards the nearby teleportation portal. “The domain can hold for a while longer; we need to reach the teleportation array in that time.”
Leslie pointed at the unconscious God Kings, asking, “What about these two?”
Owen took a deep breath. “Bring them along as hostages!”
These two God Kings were now devoid of combat capability after sustaining heavy injuries, and their mental state was compromised, making them easy to use as leverage.
Leslie nodded.
Despite having endured the combined assault of three God Kings and numerous god-tier warriors, this was only the beginning.
Middle Earth was already rife with undercurrents. With two God Kings as hostages, they would have more bargaining chips.
She conjured two chains of black light that bound Stella God and the red-cloaked bishop tightly, then hurriedly led them toward the teleportation portal.
Watching Leslie depart, Owen swiftly rushed to the bone dragon king, Gold Dragon King, and Otto, quickly summoning the Middle Earth captive group.
“Get ready to leave here quickly; prepare to execute the plan. We don’t have much time!”
Seeing Owen’s serious demeanor, everyone present nodded solemnly, casting worried glances at Owen and Leslie as they moved away.
Meanwhile, other injured or defeated god-tier mages had their eyes fixed on the couple.
This pair was unprecedentedly ruthless, and with the fall of God Kings, Middle Earth would undoubtedly face turmoil again.
Though they had the upper hand now, they could not maintain an effective response to God Kings indefinitely!
Moreover, other major factions in Middle Earth were almost entirely mobilized; they wouldn’t allow such a significant event to wrap up so soon.
…
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
After parting from the bone dragon king and most others, Owen and Leslie raced towards the enormous bronze teleportation portal, moving like galloping steeds.
However, behind them, waves of divine light pursued relentlessly, showing no intention of letting them escape.
Sensing the danger emanating from the dense divine light, Owen turned sharply to look back.
Leading the charge was the Flame God King, the master of the Fire Temple, brandishing a fiery staff.
Beside him were the Holy Pool God King and the pope of the Truth Church, both unwilling to be outdone.
These were renowned leaders of the top-tier factions in Middle Earth, all at the God King level.
Following these three were the Moon Goddess Queen and the Spirit Elder of the Qianqiu Mountain…
They were all heavyweight mages, many reaching god-tier or even near-God King levels, incredibly formidable.
To prevent Owen and Leslie from escaping, they chose to enter Owen’s domain.
After all, if Owen and Leslie managed to flee, they might not get another chance to act against them.
The duo’s talent and strength were concerning; if given sufficient time to cultivate, they could truly stir up chaos in Middle Earth.
Therefore, they could not let them escape!
“Owen, at this point, why cling to stubbornness? Just hand over the [Order] and the Godslayer Staff, and destroy your mana core yourself. I, in the name of the Truth Church pope, guarantee that this matter will be resolved once and for all.”
The Truth Church pope caught up to Owen, his expression serious as he fixed his gaze on him.
Although Owen had harmed the interests of the Truth Church, both the Godslayer Staff and the Supreme Order could propel the Truth Church to new heights.
If Owen surrendered them voluntarily, he wouldn’t mind letting him go.
The other factions had relatively less conflict with Owen; they had mainly come for the Godslayer Staff and the Supreme Order, and part of it was also due to Owen’s talent.
“Owen, if you agree to the pope’s request, we can also let you go and won’t trouble you; this is already a leniency toward you. You’d better not be ungrateful!”
