Master Changsheng

Chapters 485 & 486: The Power of the Bewitching Rules Manifests [Countdown to the End: 312 seconds]

Ankai first proactively reduced the protection afforded to [Divine Court Ninth Level: Divine Court Decision Center].

The rules of the [God of Law] struck the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center], causing debris to fall everywhere.

It looked like a tragic scene on the verge of collapse.

The [God of Magic] remained unmoved upon seeing this, and did not deliberately change his attack methods, but continued to bombard at the previous frequency.

Ankai appears to have given up on defense.

Actually it is not.

He was well aware of the power of the [God of Laws].

He also understood that by pulling the [God of Law] into the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Decisions], he was essentially using the [Time Cage] against the opponent, and there was only one chance.

Once the opportunity is missed, it will be extremely difficult to deal with him again using the same methods, even with the power of the [God of Law].

Ankai decided to abandon most of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center], concentrate all his strength and all the resources of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center], and use this space as the battlefield for the final battle against the [God of Law]!

As Ankai relinquished control, the collapse of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center] accelerated.

In the blink of an eye, it was reduced to ruins, and then pulverized by the "tentacles" of the [God of Magic's] rules.

Once the massive [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center] lost Ankai's protection, its collapse speed was astonishing.

It wasn't just collapsing; as the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Decisions] was constantly bombarded by the [God of Law], its figure began to appear in this space.

This immediately attracted the attention of some deities, but when they discovered the presence of the [God of Law], they all withdrew their gazes and moved away from the area.

They tacitly stayed behind, instead guarding the surrounding area, ready to be dispatched by the [God of Laws] at any time.

Most of the gods were thinking the same thing: since the [God of Law] had acted decisively, their search for the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Decisions] seemed to be coming to an end.

It's just unknown whether the God of Light died in the Ninth Level of the Divine Court: the Divine Court Decision Center.

Among them were deities under the command of the Dark God who, upon discovering a figure resembling the "Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center" and the "God of Law" attacking it, immediately wanted to inform the Dark God.

Despite their calls, they were unable to contact the Dark God.

One of the Dark God's confidants, unwilling to give up, went to the location of the Dark God's secluded cultivation in the Chaos Space, but found nothing.

No one knows where the Dark God went at that time.

The Dark God has not disappeared; he is simply pursuing his policy of secrecy.

To ensure his concealment was sufficiently secretive, he completely cut off all contact and communication with the outside world.

What the Dark God thinks is that his hidden place can only be discovered by the Supreme God, provided that the Supreme God is stronger than him.

In other words, regardless of who wins between the God of Law and the murderer who killed the God of Light, only the two of them have the opportunity to discover the God of Darkness.

At that time, the Dark God can completely absolve himself of any responsibility for this momentous event that could overturn the God Realm, by remaining in seclusion.

Therefore, in order to ensure his ultimate survival, the Dark God was still very serious about putting on a show.

For example, he actually cut off all contact with the outside world.

Everything that happens in the outside world has nothing to do with him.

The other gods would never have imagined that the supreme god would be so afraid of death.

Not only would the gods not have imagined it, but even the God of Law never expected that his colleague, one of the highest deities, would be such a cowardly coward!

Unable to find the Dark God, the gods could only focus all their attention on the God of Law, who was fighting against the Ninth Level of the Divine Court: the Divine Court Decision Center.

As more and more of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center] collapsed, the onlookers finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This centuries-long search can finally come to an end.

And they can finally enjoy a long-awaited rest.

As for the death of the God of Light

"Oh God, shouldn't the gods look forward? Although it's sad, let the past be the past!"

Even when the God of Light died, he never imagined that one day his death would rapidly evolve into "true death" after his passing.

The divine realm has always advised that death has three stages: the first is physical demise, the second is the funeral, which signifies death in social interactions, and the third is when enemies, lovers, and friends forget your existence—this is the true meaning of death.

In the eyes of the gods, the "God of Light" skips the second stage and goes directly into the third stage.

The gods began to consciously forget the existence of the God of Light.

After all, the dead Supreme God no longer possessed the influence to restrain them.

If I miss the God of Light too much, wouldn't it be bad if the two current Supreme Gods saw it?

The collapse of the Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Resolution Center is accelerating.

However, this time, with the participation of other deities, every time the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Resolution] collapsed, it was met with cheers from the other deities.

They seemed to be a group of nobles watching caged beasts fight each other, with an arrogant disdain for everything, and they had long ago decided that the weaker side, the "beast" in the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center], was doomed to die.

The cheers reached Ankai's ears.

He didn't react in the slightest to these ignorant cheers, not even a slight furrow of his brow.

They are fully committed to the measures that are about to be taken.

The internal decision-making center of the Ninth Level of the Divine Court: Divine Court Decision-Making Center occupies only one percent of the size of the Ninth Level of the Divine Court: Divine Court Decision-Making Center.

And it is located at the very center of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Resolutions].

Given the [God of Laws]'s cautious approach, the decision-making center will only be affected after all other buildings outside it have collapsed.

Ankai's lack of resistance did not make the [God of Magic] lower his guard.

On the contrary, the cautious [God of Magic] was on high alert, ready to face Ankai's next move.

The God of Law does not believe that someone who dares to attack the Supreme God, or even ultimately kill the Supreme God, will simply sit idly by and surrender.

There will definitely be a backup plan.

As the Supreme God who emerged from the bloodshed, the God of Law knew that the beginning of a battle was not the start, but the end of the battle was the turning point that determined the outcome.

He was preparing for Ankai's next move, while Ankai was preparing his own, getting ready to attack the [God of Law].

At this moment, the energies of the two seemed to be merging.

Both sides understood that the other had hidden cards, and both understood that the current situation was not the key to deciding this battle.

The turning point of this battle will only come in the battles to come.

The only difference is that the [God of Magic] is confident enough in his own strength; he is confident in extinguishing all unknown dangers.

An Kai wasn't entirely confident he could defeat the [God of Magic], but his indomitable spirit drove him to fight the [God of Magic] with all his might, even if it meant death, he would have no regrets.

The collapse of the Ninth Level of the Divine Court: the Divine Court Resolution Center is nearing its end.

The resolution center is like an isolated island in the middle of a tsunami.

Faced with the overwhelming waves, there seemed to be absolutely no way to stop them.

[The God of Law] could now see Ankai's figure directly, hiding in the center of the decision-making process, his face filled with unyielding anger.

Just like the same expression that the [God of Law] saw on the faces of those beings when he killed them before.

Despair, anger, and helplessness.

The God of Law enjoys the expressions on the faces of these beings before they die, for only then can he truly feel that he is in control of their lives and deaths.

An Kai's expression seemed to have stirred up the [God of Magic's] past memories.

That's why my wariness of Ankai lessened somewhat.

Little did they know, this was exactly what An Kai had set up.

From the very beginning, An Kai did not offer the slightest resistance.

His resistance was not what was seen!

—[Summon: The Rule of Bewilderment]!

When spells manifest as rules, the spells themselves undergo a transformation.

The "Rules of Confusion" are such a product.

Even the first level of "rules" has a significant effect.

After Ankai relentlessly used the [Rules of Bewitching] to attack the [God of Law], Ankai finally found an opportunity to use the [Rules of Bewitching] to change a tiny thought in the [God of Law]'s mind.

Don't underestimate these seemingly small changes.

But it is highly likely that this slight change will influence the upcoming battle!

The first direct confrontation between [The God of Magic] and Ankai ended in the defeat of [The God of Magic].

Affected by the invisible rule of [Bewitching Rule], the [God of Law] did not notice anything amiss and continued to use its own rule tentacles to violently continue the demolition work of [Divine Court Ninth Level: Divine Court Decision Center].

An Kai, who was in the decision-making center, saw that all the obstacles around him, namely the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: Divine Court Decision-Making Center], were about to disappear.

An Kai's concentration reached its peak for a moment, and a fine bead of sweat appeared on his palms behind his back. This was the first time An Kai had felt completely uncertain about an upcoming battle.

While the [God of Law] appeared unchanged, the slight raising of his eyebrows actually revealed a shift in his attitude towards Ankai.

From initial caution to a current caution tinged with a hint of arrogance.

boom!

A deafening roar echoed throughout the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center]. The last piece of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center] blocking structure was reduced to dust by the [God of Law] with his tentacles of rules.

The shouts of the onlookers reached their peak at this moment.

They seemed to see the result of the celebration after the [God of Magic]'s victory.

Similarly, a gambler who had staked everything on the "God of Law," betting he would win, had bloodshot eyes and bulging veins in his neck, waving his hands and shouting wildly, trying to use his celebratory shouts as the final straw that broke Ankai's back.

It felt as if ten thousand flies were constantly buzzing around my ears.

Buzzing, disturbing my sweet dreams.

An Kai's emotions were visibly affected; he seemed to be getting impatient with the shouts of those gods.

The God of Law saw everything, and he regarded this change in expression as a sign that An Kai's psychological defenses were beginning to crumble.

He breathed a sigh of relief, ready to take down An Kai in one fell swoop.

Even the God of Law himself didn't notice.

Initially, he was prepared to go all out to take down An Kai, but at this moment his thoughts changed to: "Since he has already mentally collapsed, perhaps it is not necessary to use all his strength. I can save some strength to deal with his last-ditch counterattack."

[The God of Law] has changed his mindset.

Ultimately, they were still influenced by the [Rules of Confusion].

The God of Magic had been searching for the Rules of Bewilderment for a long time, and was only one step away from truly mastering them, but unexpectedly, An Kai beat him to it.

At this very moment, the [Rules of Bewilderment] truly revealed its claws, tearing at the [God of Law]. With its preparations complete, it forcefully opened a gap for Ankai, allowing him to glimpse a weakness of the [God of Law].

And that's exactly what Ankai wanted.

The instant the [God of Magic]'s rule tentacles waved, Ankai moved.

The fear and anger vanished completely!

With a resolute expression, he shouted, "Gather!"

The sound resounded throughout the sky!

[The God of Law] felt a sudden jolt of fear, a bad premonition rising within him.

Unfortunately, it was all too late!

The [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center], which had been reduced to ruins, was restored in an instant!

The magnificent [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Decisions] suddenly materialized, displaying its grandeur as it occupied this space, causing the other onlookers to retreat continuously!

[The God of Law] was originally outside the coverage area of ​​[The Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Decisions], but as his mindset changed, he unknowingly stepped into the former coverage area of ​​[The Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Decisions].

During this period, the [Rules of Confusion] played a crucial role!

It was through the constant influence of the [Rules of Bewilderment] on the [God of Law] that a slight loophole appeared in his cautious mindset, leading him to step into the area covered by the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Center for Divine Court Decisions], which he was unwilling to enter.

This also gave Ankai an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

The moment Ankai mastered the element of time magic, he also mastered the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center].

From this, we learned a life-saving method from the "Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center".

It can consume 70% of the resources of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: Divine Court Decision Center] to instantly restore the existence of the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: Divine Court Decision Center].

This was a contingency plan deliberately left by the [Divine Court God of Law] when it was created, seemingly anticipating that someone would directly target [Divine Court Ninth Level: Divine Court Decision Center].

It was this backup plan that allowed Ankai to envelop the [God of Magic] within it.

Envelopment is only the first step.

Now comes the main event.

After realizing his own location, the [Dharma God] did not show any particular panic. Instead, he understood everything in an instant, including the change in his mindset, which he had already guessed was due to being influenced.

This made the [God of Magic] look at Ankai with newfound respect.

"With such methods at your disposal, it's no wonder that fool, the God of Light, died at your hands."

This higher regard made the [God of Magic] even more cautious.

He didn't know why Ankai was so obsessed with dragging him into the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center], but there must be a reason why the other party went to such great lengths to do so.

[The God of Law] is no longer willing to give Ankai another chance.

He decided to abandon the gradual approach of "boiling the frog in lukewarm water."

With a thought, numerous magical rules reached out and transformed into a world-destroying giant. With a single punch, the [Ninth Level of the Divine Court: The Divine Court Decision Center] began to collapse from the inside. In an instant, the giants arrived in front of An Kai and, without uttering a single unnecessary word, swung their fists at him.

At this moment, An Kai completely gave up resisting, gritting his teeth as he stared at the [God of Law]. He wanted the [God of Law] to gamble on who would die first!

The Time Cage has suddenly descended!

All four of its own rules manifested, enveloping the [God of Laws]!

The space was torn apart by the two of them, creating cracks in the space.
