Chapter 774: Facing the Golden King (I)
Due to the explosive nature of the Nine Titan Towers Eradication Beam, it would explode with overwhelming power once the attack struck its target, unleashing waves of chaotic and destructive energy that could pulverize the body of an Astral True Titan.
However, using the Second Level of The Flow, Cain was able to prevent the explosion. Yet this didn't mean he was out of danger since the beam was pushing him back and threatened to crush his body if he did not act fast. As if carrying the entire world on his shoulders, Cain used all his strength to push the beam upwards, sending it into the sky.
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!"
The Nine Titan Towers Eradication Beam carried so much energy and power that it ascended hundreds of thousands of kilometers. It did not dissipate, reaching the Crystal Wall and blasting against it. The explosion was shocking, damaging the wall that covered Aether and creating massive cracks in space.
Cain didn't linger on this wondrous sight and quickly regrouped with the Collapsing Lightning Duke and First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, continuing their rapid advancement toward the Imperial Castle.
A sharp light full of killing intent appeared in the trio's eyes as they saw the Imperial Castle within reach. However, their surprise was palpable when the ceiling of that massive structure was blown to pieces. It didn't take long for them to understand the situation as dozens of massive creatures emerged from the castle.
They varied in form; some were hundreds of meters tall, others wore large robes, and some had wings. Their common trait was their desiccated constitution, which made them seem as if they were decayed corpses.
These creatures were not only horrifying but also seemed to possess a massive yet unstable energy pool. They radiated a dark miasma that engulfed the Silver City's earth and sky, rotting everything in its path.
The putrid miasma reached the trio in an instant. While it was extremely dense and powerful, capable of harming Divine Ascension Masters, it was not a challenge for them. The Collapsing Lightning Duke used gravity to push it away; any miasma near the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar froze, and the miasma near Cain was set ablaze.
Although the trio could handle the poisonous miasma, it was the least of their worries.
