Chapter 678: Negative teleportation
Not far from the battle between Cain and Zinir, there was an arc of dark lightning constantly clashing against massive mountains, moving hundreds of times faster than the speed of light. The lightning arc destroyed those structures with a single move, but another would replace them the next second.
Facing the strongest warrior of the Collapsing Lightning Alliance was none other than General Casidius. The Hell Clan God showed absolute focus as he could barely keep the Collapsing Lightning Duke at bay even with the God Tower's energy enhancement. If the distance between the two were to be reduced too much, he might die.
The Collapsing Lightning Duke's eyes were sharp as he clenched his fists and destroyed another of the mountains. A normal mountain could do nothing to the True Titan, but the ones fired by Casidius were spells that harness the power of the Law of Earth. Each mountain was incredibly durable and carried a weight that did not fall short of a small meteorite.
Although his eyes beamed with killing intent, the Collapsing Lightning Duke had no sense of urgency. Once he arrived at the Trinity Dark Towers and saw how the weaker soldiers were escaping while the strongest stood in the sky, he chose against the use of the 81 Deus Behemoth Heaven Suppression Formation.
That decision was not out of a sense of mercy, as there was no room for such emotion in war, but out of objectivity. If they used the 81 Deus Behemoth Heaven Suppression Formation, they would just force the strongest warriors in the Inferno Daemon Invasion Army to escape sooner, leaving the weaker soldiers behind.
The lives of hundreds of thousands of Wave Warriors and Wave Champions were not worth dozens of supreme wave crystals in the mind of the Collapsing Lightning Duke.
The goal was just to push the Inferno Daemon Invasion Army out of the Golden Core Sector, and while it would be great if they could kill Apotheosis or Divine Ascension Masters in the process, there was no need to risk their lives for that.
All the great generals came to the same conclusion as the Collapsing Lightning Duke. They attacked with all their power but focused on preserving their lives and just draining the power of the Inferno Daemon Gods.
...
While the Inferno Daemon Gods focused on the retreat of their soldiers and the Collapsing Lightning Alliance Titans in draining the power of the God Towers, none of them knew what was happening thousands of meters beneath them.
