Chapter 1583: Formation Lifted
During Klaus’s ninth incarnation, he rescued the Genesis Flame Queen from a pack of hungry wolves when she was merely an Immortal King.
Back then, she had no way to repay him for saving her, so she asked for his name and promised to repay him later.
They never met again, but later Efad learned of her rise after she awakened a powerful flame element and was accepted into the ranks of a terrifying group of warriors who wielded flame as their primary source of power.
So, since she never paid him back, he would take this stone, knowing she would be pissed off if someone snatched the Flame Dao Crystal right from under her nose.
Although Rhazor knew that Nyrela would play a role in his life, he was not about to pamper her. She had to understand that even with strength, one could not always have luck when it came to something everyone was willing to kill for.
She might be strong, but Rhazor had the [Lotus of Destruction] and several other deadly abilities up his sleeve. He was not weak either, and thankfully, Amaru was on his side now.
Nyrela narrowed her eyes at Rhazor but said nothing.
She knew that while she had succeeded in making everyone fear her, Rhazor wasn’t intimidated. So she returned to her carriage and waited while Rhazor settled back in and resumed watching the formation in the distance.
Meanwhile, inside the carriage, Nyrela wore a frown as she read a document bearing the name of the one true criminal everyone seemed to have learned had ventured into the Devil’s Maw.
"This kid sure is not simple," she muttered and took a deep breath. "If what the reports say is true, then in less than a year, he moved from a mortal to an Immortal Monarch. That is even more monstrous than the Renegade Hunter, who is still a True Immortal."
She scrolled through dozens of pages before letting out another sigh.
"Let’s see if he survives this ordeal. If he does, then he will be picked over the Renegade Hunter. However, if he fails, I will have to reevaluate my plans."
She leaned back in her chair and started to relax, unfazed by the countless eyes locked onto her carriage. In her mind, she had already claimed the Flame Dao Crystal. All that remained now was for the formation to open.
Time passed slowly as more and more experts arrived near the formation. Even with the time for the formation to break approaching, many continued to come.
Some came alone, while others arrived in groups. They came in all kinds of shapes and sizes, with a few beasts included. Yet despite the growing number of participants, nobody dared cause trouble.
The reason was simple.
The terrifying young lady inside the carriage was still here.
Every newcomer who arrived and heard what happened to the Grim Wolf Alpha immediately chose to behave themselves.
Even the dangerous humans who ruled different sections of the Devil’s Maw remained unusually quiet.
The atmosphere gradually became tense.
Everyone knew that once the formation opened, blood would inevitably be spilt.
That moment soon came when, suddenly, a crack appeared in the formation. Everyone became serious the moment the formation started to show signs of breaking. Instinctively, they all gripped their weapons, ready to enter battle.
However, the moment the carriage door opened, and Nyrela stepped out, all of them backed away.
It was crazy to think that a mere demigod could make hundreds of gods, including over two dozen Universal Gods, frightened to such a degree.
However, they were, and it wasn’t only because she was the daughter of the infamous Genesis Flame Queen, one of the founding members of the Warrior Temple.
They were aware that such a background made her a danger that could not be taken lightly. However, they were also aware of the cruel way she and her siblings had been raised.
From what was known, the children of the Genesis Flame Queen and several other powerful warriors were raised on the Foreign Battlefield.
This meant they grew up fighting life-and-death battles against the foreign race. So she was far more dangerous than the average child of a powerful figure.
Many of them had never heard of Nyrela before, but from her actions and background alone, they chose to back away.
However, not everyone did.
The beasts in the Devil’s Maw clearly had no reason to fear her mother, even if Nyrela herself was a danger. After all, the Genesis Flame Queen cannot come in person even if they snatch the Flame Dao Crystal.
Aside from them, Rhazor could tell that the likes of Bone Flayer God, Butcher God, Shadow Oracle, Nightstalker, and Skeleton Shaman had no plans of backing down.
Beyond them, several Universal God-level beasts and other humans would undoubtedly take advantage of the chaos and try to get their hands on the Flame Dao Crystal.
But Rhazor had already planned for all of them.
What he never planned for was the green spear that came at him from nowhere just as the second crack appeared in the formation.
BOOOOM!
Rhazor used the flat of his sword to block the spear, and the impact blasted dust into the air. He had no idea who had attacked him, but he also didn’t have the time to track the attacker before an arrow came from another direction.
Before he could deal with that, the ground exploded beneath him, and spears made of the Earth Element shot toward him.
However, before the spears could reach him, Amaru swatted them away with her glaive.
Just then, three Universal Gods with dead eyes and cold expressions appeared in the air, each gazing down at Rhazor with chilling killing intent.
One wielded a bow, another a spear, and the third held a hammer. They were all Universal Gods, but Rhazor could sense something unsettling about them.
"Uhm, who are you guys, and why are you attacking me when I have no plans of attacking you?" Rhazor asked, his bow manifesting in his hand.
He also summoned ten spears and made them hover behind him.
Just when he expected a reply, the one with the bow unleashed another arrow, and Rhazor was forced into battle.
Meanwhile, everyone gathered sighed when they saw that Rhazor had finally been taken off the chessboard.
However, when they noticed that Amaru made no move to aid him and instead kept her focus on the formation, they realised things were far from over.
Nyrela looked briefly at Rhazor before turning back to the formation. Nobody knew what she said to herself, but she seemed far more relaxed compared to the others.
Rhazor entered a deadly dance of attack and defence, making sure he stayed one step ahead despite never expecting to face three Universal Gods at once.
[Master, I have determined their identities.] Icon suddenly spoke just as Rhazor dodged a spear thrust and deflected an arrow using the body of his [Flame Eater Bow].
’Go ahead, Icon.’
[All three of them are from the Twisting Vine Forest. They are Universal Gods without domains since they were killed by the forest and transformed into Vine Demons.]
’So it came after me, huh?’ A smirk formed on his face. He knew the Twisting Vine Forest would not let him go just like that, but he also didn’t expect them to come after him this quickly.
Then again, he had escaped and damaged a large portion of the forest, so it was only natural that they would come after him.
Unbeknownst to Rhazor, his days of reckoning had yet to arrive. After all, the Twisting Vine Forest had sent an entire armada of Vine Demons after him.
Ten minutes later, the formation finally broke apart, and battle erupted in every corner of the area.
