Chapter 1163: Reinforcement

"Hahaha, Seventy years... No, Five thousand years... It's been a very long time, huh, Spirit God." The eerie voice containing a vast amount of killing intent echoed in the battlefield, sending chills down everyone's spine.

Everyone's gaze was fixated on the crack that appeared out of this outer space's nothingness. The commotions stopped for a few seconds as they looked at the beast that had been sealed this whole time.

"It is as I predicted. You would have destroyed me in this timeline. Fortunately, I have prepared another plan. By extracting the elements from billions of lives, I would be able to create this surge of energy that could destroy the weakened space and time seal. Hahaha."

As his voice resounded the vast battlefield, a bear paw suddenly emerged from the crack, ripping the entire thing open, showing the beast's real appearance.

*Gasp!* Everyone widened their eyes.

The beast they tried to fight was truly the combination of six beasts. The head was that of a snake and the body was that of a dragon. Behind that giant body, two pairs of wings were visible. They were none other than bat wings and angel wings. His hands were bear paws, but the feet were that of a phoenix talon.

Each beast would surely have one element and for this beast, who managed to fuse with all of them, he had all six elements. In addition, due to the fight he had with the Spirit God in the past, he was able to acquire the skill to utilize them at the same time.

Alex summoned back his Fire Fox from the Fire Authority to let his presence known before shouting. "Shut up, Monster. Do you think you can challenge me with that condition of yours? You don't even have your full power yet."

That shout was meant to tell his allies that this wasn't the worst-case scenario yet, so they shouldn't give up.

The beast, on the contrary, laughed and said, "That's certainly true. But you are also not the past Spirit God who had accumulated thousands of years' worth of experiences. You are still a newborn chick."

"Then taste it for yourself." Alex raised his hand and swung his sword. "One Sword Kill, Blade of Extinction."

The Sword Wave flew toward the beast. This was the same Sword Wave that killed the Dragon, so all God Kings felt dread just to stop it, but because their king was threatened, they would have no choice other than to block it.

When they were about to move, the Supreme Beast chuckled. "Haha, come then. I will let you see the difference between us."

The Supreme Beast raised his paw before rainbow-colored energy coated his paw like that of a gauntlet. He then stretched his hand forward and grasped the Sword Wave.

"One Sword Kill, Blade of Extinction... I have indeed remembered this power." The beast smirked. "Back when I fought the past Spirit God, this same technique almost killed me. Well, I should praise you for being able to recreate seventy percent of its power despite not being the original. Unfortunately..."

As he said it, he clenched his fist, crushing the Sword Wave without a problem. "It's still too weak."

"..." Everyone was stunned to see their exchange. Even the God of Destruction found himself shaking in fear when he saw this beast. That rainbow-colored energy was simply too strong. Although he vaguely felt it, there was a trace of six Laws in that power. In other words, the beast didn't only combine the body parts and elements, but also their ability to grasp the Law. It was no wonder why such a beast would be called the strongest.

"How about you try to test this power of mine, Spirit God?" The beast raised both hands while opening his mouth. The rainbow-colored energy gathered again, emanating an even stronger aura than Alex's technique.

"Gehenna Ray."

The energy was released forward, flying toward the Spirit God in a torrential flow.

Alex gathered all his power on his blade and raised his sword. Right before the attack hit him, Alex slashed his sword down.

"Eight Purities Slash."

The space element once again began to shake while Alex's Sun God Fire started burning the energy. The remaining energy then started to cut that Gehenna Ray while creating a huge amount of pressure and shock wave that traveled together with the slash.

After splitting the attack into half, the flame burned the residual energy to prevent it from injuring the people behind him, while the shock wave he created flew to the beast.

Even the Supreme Beast couldn't contain his surprise as he punched the shock wave to neutralize it. He laughed and said, "Hahaha, to think you would give me this kind of surprise. You have finally become a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary."

"..." Alex narrowed his eyes and raised his hands. His voice resounded in every single person on his side. "The situation may be bad, but it's not the end. What will happen to our families, worlds, and this universe if we fall in this battle?"

Not only those from Eulja but also the people from other Divine Worlds had their hearts wrenched by those words. They looked at the Spirit God's back... The broad back that towered the fate of the universe.

They looked at the weapons in their hands and clenched them tightly. They regained their motivation and determination to fight.

Alex decided to use this time to regroup with the other God Kings while observing their conditions. As expected, if the situation continued like this, they would certainly lose.

"How are you all doing?" Alex narrowed his eyes.

"Not that good." Lin Xingzhi shrugged.

"Indeed." Anna and Jeanne agreed while Leoz shook his head. "I can hold on for another hour."

"As much as I hate to say this, but the enemies are stronger than us." The Palm God sighed.

"Yeah, to think the traitors who were formerly our peers become this much stronger." The God of Destruction took a deep breath, assessing the situation.

"I'm just repaying my debt. You don't know how much effect the thing you gave me has on my magic foundation." The Magic Goddess smirked, still feeling excited. "I don't feel like losing."

"Still, the enemies are not that easy." The Song Goddess shook her head helplessly.

"Unfortunately, I can't help you in this matter. If I have more time, I should be able to reach my former stage..." Alaya felt helpless. She came to this timeline to help them win this war but ended up becoming a burden due to high expectations.

"Don't worry, Master. I will continue fighting until my last breath." Marcus, the God of Wrath, assured Alex.

"The problem is time and people. If only we can reset this fight, I'm sure we can win this time even with that beast..." Lin Xingzhi frowned. "Should we retreat, Alex?"

"No. The consequence will be fatal. I'm sure you know the reproduction of the bats, right? If they feast on billions of lives, I'm afraid it will become even worse." Alex shook his head.

Knowing what they were thinking, the beast laughed out loud, saying, "Spirit God, it's impossible to win this battle. Even if you can stop me, your allies will die one by one."

"You talk too much." Alex snorted.

"No, no! Just take a look at yourself... Your Divine Energy is almost empty because of the continuous usage of your technique. Even with my current power, I will—" The Supreme Beast stopped his mouth and turned around as if feeling something from his right.

Suddenly, loud cheers resounded on the battlefield. All their gazes turned to the right, where they found many spaceships emerging along with thousands of God Rank Experts. Still, the ones that stood out the most were three people. Two of them were God Kings that surprisingly to be the ones that quitted the alliance after the Holy God exited the room. Yes, they were the other two who left beside the Magic Goddess, God of Greed and God of Strength.

Yet, the one that took Alex's gaze was none other than a certain boy who was only a mere Rank 7 God. That boy was like any other boy who couldn't contribute much in this battle, but he might become the MVP today.

"Is that Navin?" The Palm God dropped his jaw while clutching his head in distress.

The boy smiled and clasped his hand politely. "Master! I, Navin, have returned with reinforcement."

Alex then remembered Navin's purpose when he confronted him, telling him about the lifespan and the so-called key that would be able to change the fate of this universe.

And that same person truly came to this battlefield to change it. Even though the two God Kings wouldn't bring that much of a difference, for Alex, it was everything he needed to turn the situation around.

The Supreme Beast also understood the meaning of this reinforcement in the heart of his enemies and shouted to lower their morale again. "Hahaha! Do you think this puny reinforcement of yours can let you win this battle? Are you mentally retarded Spirit God?"

That laugh was to insult the Spirit God, but the beast didn't stop there. He gathered the energy again and shot it toward Alex.

To raise their morale again, Alex needed to do one more step. He raised both weapons while saying, "Eve, Elle, Elliot... Will you trust me with your lives?"

"Master. That's a stupid question." Eve smiled.

"Yes. I have never been this happy until I met Master." Elle confirmed with a nod.

"That's right, Master. Our lives are yours. Use it as you see fit." Elliot smirked and released his power.

Alex couldn't help but smile, feeling blessed. A dull but bending pink-colored energy and golden-colored energy came out of his body simultaneously before they gathered inside the Spirit Crown. The blue jewel shone brightly as Alex's golden eyes now had a small pink circle in the middle.

His sword also changed its color. The handle turned black and half the blade turned to gold while the other half became pink.

The same applied to the spear, but instead of black, the handle was full of white, signifying the Life Energy from the Spirit Crown unlike the sword that carried the power of Death.

"Sword and Spear Possession."

Alex's earth-shattering aura shook the battlefield as if telling them that he was stronger than the beast. At the same time, his power was suddenly restored to the point the excessive power gushed out of his body, sending powerful pressure on the surroundings. Only some people knew about this because the reserve that the Void Flower had created finally opened its reserve for the first time.

To show his supremacy, Alex slashed his sword downwards, using the same technique that the beast looked down upon.

"One Sword Kill, Blade of Extinction."

The Sword Wave surprisingly cut through the Gehenna Ray all the way to the beast that the latter couldn't help but use his Gehenna Gauntlet to stop it again.

"!!!" The beast widened his eyes and checked Alex's body. "You!"

Everyone was stunned when they found Alex still had this much energy left even though he had used the Eight Purities Slash that needed a huge amount of energy twice. But at the same time, it meant the fight was far from over.

Like their current condition, as long as Alex killed that beast, they would eventually win this battle.

"It's not over."

"We need to continue fighting for our universe."

"Don't let those traitors and enemies trample upon you."

"Fight!"

"We will fight!"

"Uoh!" All the people shouted at the top of their lungs. If this wasn't outer space, the ground might have started vibrating.

Seeing this kind of morale, Alex shouted. "Those who believe in me, follow me and prepare to lay down your lives!"

"Uoh!" The cheers erupted even bigger while they raised their weapons.

Alex finally advanced toward the beast. "Let's go!"

"Uoh!" Every single person followed Alex from behind, forgetting about the pain from their wounds and tiredness from using so much energy.

"Kill!"
