Chapter 557: A Monster for Another
The green light pulsed. It turned into a beam and drove itself into the chest of a human standing nearby, too small for anyone to notice so far. He wore dirty clothes and had yellowed teeth, his hair disheveled. As the light entered him, his aura grew, quickly expanding from the early A-Grade all the way to the Archon level, rising still until it was similar in power to Axelor’s.
The Sage laughed. “After a billion years, I’m finally free!” he shouted in his normal voice. “Come, brother. Let’s end this.”
Axelor and Enas—who now occupied the Sage’s body—melted into a black and green pool of light respectively, then mixed together, forming a yin-yang shape in space. “You too, my siblings. Let us be reborn,” the Sage’s voice echoed. The two greater gods glanced at each other. Then, they too melted into pools of ethereal light which dove into the yin-yang diagram. An intense concentration of power shook the universe, once again dislodging space and time. The combined aura of twelve Gods rose through the Archon realm, advancing higher and higher until it slowed down. Then, with a pop, it burst through, its quantity lessening but its quality skyrocketing.
The Church army erupted into cheers. People shook in suppressed fury and joy, while others hugged the cultivators next to them and celebrated. “We did it!” they shouted. “There is hope!”
“All those sacrifices weren’t in vain!” a man shouted, raising his fists to the sky.
Jack held his breath. “They broke through!” he said, eyes shaking. “They reached the S-Grade!”
“Bro,” Brock said from the side, not sharing Jack’s excitement. “Did you notice?”
“Notice what?”
“When Life Bro and Entropy Bro fused, they only spoke in Life Bro’s voice. Not both, like the other fusions.”
