Chapter 674: New threat
Cain was not alone since the rings of shadows and fire affected the minds of everyone present, paralyzing some of the Divine Ascension Masters with overwhelming fear.
If the Collapsing Lightning Divine Ascension Masters had to describe it, it would be like a virus that infected their minds and spread across their bodies, growing stronger each second.
The strongest Titans managed to use their overwhelming soul force and Third Realm Ego Wave to resist the pressure, yet the fear remained inside their hearts and did not seem to go anywhere.
Cain's eyes glowed with a monstrous red light as the Power of Order repelled the horrifying feeling assaulting his mind. His eyes became emotionless as he severed everything that could distract him and focused on the rings. Thanks to his mastery over the Law of Space, he could discern that their true nature was that of a portal, so he ready himself to face what would appear.
However, nothing could prepare Cain or any of the Titans for what came next.
What emerged from the massive portal of fire and shadows that covered the sky was beyond monstrous. It had four fingers with leathery skin, and its palm seemed to contain a domain of fire and shadows.
"RUMBLE!"
The sky trembled, and the earth shattered as a demonic hand, larger than a city, emerged from the portal. Under the shocked gaze of the Scarlet King, the Collapsing Lightning Duke, the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, the Patriarch of the Aegon Family, and dozens of Divine Ascension Masters, it grabbed the Void King.
"ATTACK!"
Despite facing the same shock and fear that everyone else, the Collapsing Lightning Duke demonstrated why he was a legendary figure by managing to shout that order and making his killing intent explode. He did not know the origin of the monstrous hand but was determined not to let it take the Void King out of the battlefield.
