Death… And Me

Chapter 2357 Comes and Gones

An explosion what unbelievable proportions took place, generating a burst of Divine and Devilish Energy that spread outward as fast as lightning.

Gardo was the first one to see it with his Divine Sense, immediately propelling him to order everyone that wasn\'t dragged with the formation. "All of you, get down! Use all your Divine Energy to protect your bodies! Do it now!"

After they saw part of the army disappearing in an instant, no one had any other doubts. All the cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits burst with Divine Energy and fully focused on their defense. Even the devils that were outside were no exception, being ordered by Froskley to protect themselves as well.

*Shuwwwwwwooooo!*

The blast of Divine and Devilish Energy immediately swept over the entire remaining army. Countless demon beasts, who couldn\'t understand the order of protecting themselves, were immediately carried away with the blast, many of them dying on the spot.

The ones that did protect themselves still found it difficult to resist, having to rely on the higher-level experts around to help defend themselves. Unfortunately, the higher the level, the lesser the number of experts, so the ones preset were enough to protect the entire army.

Rean and Kentucky went down and spread their Divine Energy, trying to protect as many of the soldiers and demon beasts as possible, but even they were limited in what they could do. Essefy and the other Elemental Space Realm, Space Bending Realm, and Void Tempering Realm experts did the same. 

The blast of Divine and Devilish lasted a full minute, completely changing the landscape of the region. By the time it was finally over, not a single tree or rock remained in place. 

Gardo looked at all of that before turning his attention to Froskley with a horrible expression. "You..."

Froskley didn\'t seem the least bit happy, though. "Fuck! How did you find out about it?" Obviously, he was expecting to eliminate Gardo\'s entire army with this explosion. However, only a third of it had entered the formation when Gardo ordered a full retreat. Quite a few even managed to escape outside. The blast still killed many, but nothing compared to what it would have been if everything had gone to plan.

"You can ask yourself in the next life!" Gardo was furious. He immediately activated his Narfure Divine Bloodline and restarted his assault against Froskley. 

Froskley, obviously, wouldn\'t just sit there and wait to be killed. Besides, the environment was still more favorable for the devils, so Froskley definitely didn\'t lose in strength. Once again, the battle in the skies started.

Down where the army was located, Rean and Kentucky retrieved their Divine Energy shields, having consumed a lot of their Divine Energy and even Origin Energy to save many around them. "Holy shit... that was crazy!"

Essefy quickly came to Rean side, feeling quite grateful. "Thanks for the warning. If you didn\'t tell me, I would have been dragged with that formation when it shrank. It was too fast! In a matter of seconds, it shrank into the distance to the point I couldn\'t even see it anymore, and then that explosion took place." He was still quite fearful of what just happened. So what if he was at the Peak Stage of the Elemental Space Realm? If he was inside that thing, only death awaited.

Rean shook his head, feeling quite regretful. "I was still a step too late to notice it. When the Elemental Space Realm Devils didn\'t appear after we opened a gap in the formation, I should have warned senior Gardo straight away. Yet, I was too concentrated on killing the Devils that kept launching themselves at us."

Kentucky then arrived a moment later, having heard everything. "That\'s most likely another reason why they made the formation impossible to enter for Space-Time Realm and Divinity Realm experts. If they had entered, they could have arrived at the center of the formation in a flash and seen it was a trap."

Rean then looked at the devils in the distance, the ones that survived, of course. The devils, which were already at a disadvantage, now were even more so. In fact, many seemed bewildered by what just happened, which obviously demonstrated that they didn\'t know it was going to happen. After all, who would be willing to hold the Realm of Gods\' experts inside the formation if they knew it would shrink and then explode, killing everything there? 

Rean didn\'t need to give any orders, though. Space-Time Realm Demon Beasts were still present since they couldn\'t enter the formation anyway. Since Gardo was fighting, they took charge and ordered the army to attack the remaining devils.

It goes without saying that none of the devils tried to fight back. The devils also had Space-Time experts outside, but they were only two compared to Gardo\'s four subordinates in that realm. That said, they didn\'t dwell out there and fled, too.

Rean sighed and looked at Kentucky, who seemed somewhat gloomy. After all, most of the army that died was made of demon beasts. Not to mention the countless demon beasts that were used to execute this plan. "Let\'s go. We can use this chance to reduce their numbers as much as possible. Each devil we kill is one less demon beast that might die at its hands."

Kentucky nodded and immediately spread his Domain. He used a lot of Divine Energy and Origin Energy a moment ago, but he still had enough to deal with this level of devils. Essefy followed suit, and so did the others.

In the sky, Froskley saw that he would be eventually left alone, so he decided to leave as well. He wasn\'t afraid of fighting Gardo, but if the Space-Time experts joined and tried to harass him, then he might truly be in danger. "Hmph! So be it. In the end, your Realm of Gods\' army lost way more soldiers than I did. That can still be considered a success. Remember, your Realm of Gods hasn\'t won yet!" Froskley then quickly turned around and fled... or so he tried.

"Why leave so soon? Since you gave us such a big surprise, let us properly reciprocate!" As that voice appeared, the entire dark sky immediately changed into a bluish color as an incredibly oppressive power descended into Froskley. Right after, a gigantic Azure Dragon appeared!
