"Emperor Shin and Rizevim, it seems today one more Transcendent will fall."
As time passed, the cause and effect of what happened in Kyoto the past few days, as well as the slight strangeness felt before, now became clear in the gods' hearts.
They truly didn't expect Rizevim was so daring, doing such crazy things in an era like this, sacrificing all of Kyoto and Onmyōdō, just to activate the Beast of Apocalypse 666's skin, and thereby find the exact location of its seal. The famous Onmyōdō ancestor among humans, Abe no Seimei, had been utilized very perfectly by him.
In this regard, the gods felt grateful to Emperor Shin. If Rizevim was allowed to act recklessly and the Beast of Apocalypse 666 was released from the God of the Bible's seal.
A thousand years ago there was the God of the Bible to withstand it, but today, a thousand years later, the God of the Bible hasn't returned. With the current gods in the world, there wasn't a single one who could withstand its sharpness, and likely would welcome an unprecedented Ragnarok.
"Rizevim himself deserves death, just like Hades before." One of the dragon race said indifferently.
Toward Hades and Rizevim, who disturbed the world and the dragon race's survival, secretly who knows how many experts wanted to destroy them to ashes. It's just that most of them didn't have the power to do so.
"Even so, within a few days, two Transcendents fell consecutively. If added with Amun-Ra from the Egyptian Pantheon killed before, that's already three Transcendents."
"Three, aside from the God-Devil War, this is the first time so many Transcendents fell!"
"Still feels shocking..."
"Indeed so!"
"..."
In the gods' eyes, Emperor Shin, who was able to kill Hades with just one consciousness manifestation, would definitely cause Rizevim's fall when facing his original body.
There was absolutely no room for other choices.
Unless other Transcendents in the world took the risk of being killed by Emperor Shin, but unfortunately, every living being in the world cherished their life, let alone Transcendents who bore their respective Pantheons' fates. Although they had good personal relationships with Rizevim, there wasn't a single Transcendent who dared advance.
As the gods pondered and sighed, Vali could no longer restrain the hatred and anger in his heart, attacking.
"Juggernaut Drive!"
Vali directly used Divine Dividing's Juggernaut Drive, far surpassing the Balance Breaker state. He was truly like a white mecha dozens of meters tall. The terrifying aura unique to Transcendents radiated from his body. The entire space and earth trembled. The Onmyōji below directly fell to the ground due to this tremendous pressure, like a great mountain pressing them so they couldn't rise at all.
"This is Transcendent power!"
Abe no Seimei, who struggled to lift his head like a candle blown by wind, looked at Vali who released shocking pressure in the sky, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help a sarcastic smile.
Only now did he fully understand such a realm and power... How could it be a realm that could be touched just by sacrificing Onmyōdō and mere human life energy. He himself was probably just a worthless little clown in Emperor Shin or Rizevim's eyes. The relationship he had with them was only because his existence before still had slight value.
To say Seimei greatly regretted now. If he had another chance, he probably wouldn't fall into such a tragic state.
Unfortunately, now it was too late to say anything. There was no regret medicine in this world. Before Seimei made the decision to appear early, he had already completely fallen into Rizevim's trap. It was impossible for Seimei, who hadn't even reached Devil King level's limit, to escape from Rizevim's calculations, a Transcendent.
The Beast of Apocalypse 666's skin activated before, not only absorbed Seimei's power, but also almost all his life energy and soul. Even now, he could no longer make Hagoromo Gitsune reincarnate.
"Vali, my sweet grandson, you are indeed more interesting than your useless father."
When Rizevim found that Hikaru seemingly didn't intend to attack for now, he felt relieved. Although he was crazy, he wasn't crazy enough to consider himself Emperor Shin's opponent. If it was Vali, he might still have a chance to escape.
"Die, Rizevim!!!"
Vali seemingly didn't want to talk much with Rizevim. He spread his large light wings, surrounded by a powerful storm, and attacked toward Rizevim.
At the same time, he unleashed Divine Dividing's unique ability.
[Divide][Divide][Divide]
He weakened Rizevim. Unfortunately, before Sacred Gear Canceller's ability, everything was futile. Rizevim only clasped both hands together, and all attacks Vali launched using Divine Dividing became ineffective.
"Really didn't work?!"
Seeing that scene, Vali wasn't surprised at all. He already knew well about Sacred Gear Canceller.
"Then try this, Reduce!"
White-green poisonous gas that destroyed space, matter, earth... transformed into countless arrows heading toward Rizevim. Wherever it passed, space was all corroded, leaving black gaps.
"Albion's poison, I must handle it carefully."
Rizevim clearly also knew how troublesome Reduce was. This was extremely terrifying poison that could even kill gods. Although he was a Transcendent, if hit by that poison, even if he didn't die, he would lose part of his power. His Sacred Gear Canceller was useless against it.
Rizevim used various extremely powerful magic to counter it, and bit by bit reduced its power.
Instantly, the entire sky was filled with dense and extremely terrifying magic. The terrifying aura it emitted, if one of them fell on Kyoto, most likely would destroy it to dust.
*RUMBLE!*
When both collided, deafening sounds echoed consecutively.
Space shattered inch by inch. Terrifying shock waves shook all of Kyoto. Countless tall buildings began to tilt, collapse into pieces, and countless cracks appeared in the ground.
Fortune in misfortune. At this moment, Kyoto residents were still trapped inside the space gap. Otherwise, these terrifying shock waves were already sufficient to cause great losses to Kyoto residents.
