The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

But the ravens did not stop; they passed directly through the residual energy of the first ripple and continued rushing toward the Lord of the Sun.

As the flock of crows passed through a circle, countless ravens transformed into black mist.

Endless, one after another, fearless of death.

From the outside, the Sun God appeared to be surrounded by a defensive shield composed of countless golden ripples.

Each ripple is spreading outward at an extremely high frequency.

New ripples kept emerging from the fading sunlight, and the old ripples were superimposed and covered by the new ones before they could dissipate.

An endless stream.

……

This scene was witnessed by the demigods.

"The scorching sun and the lingering heart... are indeed the key."

Wang Cang pursed his lips.

He had always suspected that the sphere's purpose was more than just resurrecting the Sun God.

It now appears to be the energy core of the Sun God.

A virtually inexhaustible source of energy.

As long as that heart continues to beat, the Lord of the Blazing Sun will never lack power.

Protected by the golden light barrier, the Lord of the Blazing Sun once again raised his longsword.

This time, he didn't gather his strength like before.

Because the blazing sun's remnant heart is continuously supplying him with energy.

All he needs to do is release that energy through the longsword.

The sword swept horizontally.

The movements were simple, straightforward, and without any frills.

But what this sword swept out made everyone's scalp tingle.

The moment the golden sword energy overflowed from the blade, it expanded into an arc-shaped blade of light that stretched across the entire battlefield.

The light blade is over 5,000 meters wide and less than 1 meter thick.

But its density is so high that even space itself cracks as it travels through it.

The path swept by the light blade happened to be the area where the ravens were most densely packed.

"Puff puff puff puff puff puff—"

Amidst a dense, continuous thud, a large number of ravens were sliced ​​through by the blade of light.

The moment the body came into contact with the light blade, it was vaporized by that terrifying, scorching energy.

It turned into wisps of black mist that drifted into the air.

One sword.

At least tens of thousands of ravens vanished under this sword strike, and black mist spread across the area swept by the blade, its density so great that it almost obscured vision.

But soon, a new ripple pumped out by the blazing sun's remnant heart dispersed the black mist, and the view became clear again.

Admittedly, the Sun God's sword strike seemed quite effective.

The problem is that even more ravens will emerge from the depths of the Calamity Realm.

The gaps left by the ravens that had just been killed were filled by new ravens in less than two seconds.

The black tide once again swept over the Lord of the Blazing Sun.

The Lord of the Blazing Sun also saw this.

It raised its sword again and swept it horizontally.

Another arc-shaped blade of light appeared. Tens of thousands more ravens transformed into black mist.

But then, new ravens appeared.

The third sword strike. The fourth sword strike. The fifth sword strike.

Each sword strike could kill a large number of ravens.

Golden blades of light carved out vacuum zones amidst the black flock of crows.

Black mist spread, then dissipated, ravens filled the area, and golden light slashed again.

This cycle seems to be going on indefinitely.

But obviously, that's impossible.

Although the raven flocks are indeed being killed in large numbers.

But the ravens that weren't killed, and those that successfully broke through the golden ripples, were frantically pecking at the energy on the light screen.

This causes the light on the screen to dim at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A raven pecking at it might have a negligible effect.

But what about a hundred?

What about a thousand?

What about 10,000?

When thousands upon thousands of ravens simultaneously perched on that golden light screen and frantically pecked at it, the energy consumption rate on the screen began to become considerable.

Golden ripples were indeed continuously pumping out from the heart of the blazing sun.

However, the pumping speed seems to be slowly being caught up by the raven flock's pecking speed.

Of course, this process is not fast, because the energy reserves of the blazing sun are too deep.

As each ripple was pecked away, a new one immediately filled the void. Although the raven's pecking speed was increasing, the pulse frequency of the blazing sun's remnant heart was also rising.

The two forces were locked in a fierce tug-of-war: the ravens were consuming the light barrier, and the light barrier was consuming the ravens.

But soon, the Lord of the Blazing Sun seemed to realize that if this tug-of-war continued, the situation would only become more and more unfavorable to him.

The raven flock's pecking efficiency is slowly but steadily improving.

After each round of attack is interrupted by ripples, the next round of attack will be slightly faster than the previous round.

Quantitative change can lead to qualitative change.

If this trend is allowed to continue, its vitality will eventually be exhausted.

It was not a mindless monster. It was once the ruler of a divine realm, an emperor who ruled over trillions of living beings.

Strategic judgment and battlefield intuition were etched into its remaining will.

So, it made a decision.

"Despicable invaders..."

The voice of the Lord of the Blazing Sun once again resounded throughout the entire secret realm.

The anger in his voice was even more intense than before.

But beneath the anger lay something else: a resolute determination.

"Do you think you can win again this time by resorting to such despicable tactics?"

The Lord of the Blazing Sun stared intently at Gu Xu in the distance.

The next moment, his golden longsword was slowly retracted and held upright in front of him.

You're wrong.

"You've just forced me to recall... how I felt when I faced you back then."

"Now, I'll show you what I'm made of."

"What is the true blazing sun!"

The moment the words fell.

The golden armor on the body of the Sun God Lord began to tremble violently.

The patterns on the armor surface lit up, and golden light surged from each pattern, growing brighter and brighter.

Immediately afterwards, its body began to expand at an almost explosive speed.

It was visible to the naked eye, and it only took a second.

Its body suddenly grew from a height of tens of meters to more than three hundred meters.

But the expansion did not stop.

It continues to grow.

During the expansion process, its shape began to change fundamentally.

The golden armor was gone. The humanoid silhouette was gone. The longsword in her hand was gone.

That face with crimson pupils was also gone.

Instead, there was a pure light.

The light was fiery gold, so bright that it was almost blinding.

As the ball of light rapidly expanded, it continuously condensed and compressed, forming a regular sphere. The surface of the sphere surged with waves of golden-red flames, mirroring the patterns on the blazing sun's remnant above.

In an instant, the Blazing Sun Emperor, who had once stood in human form beneath the remnant of the blazing sun, had completely vanished.

Instead, a newborn star is growing wildly.

Golden-red flames surged across the surface of the sphere, and the temperature rose at a rate of several orders of magnitude per second. The remaining spatial structures within the secret realm emitted a dense cracking sound under the impact of this energy.
