'What's happening?'
Master Magaera had a bad feeling right away. He could feel an unparalleled power about to erupt from the Soul Requiem Stone in his hand.
At the same time, the Nine Heaven Emperor and his officials felt it, too, as did Darryl.
They did not know that Archfiend Antigonus's chant was to detonate the Soul Requiem Stone. It was the fiend race's treasured item and contained extremely terrifying power that was singularly powerful when released.
"Master Magaera!"
The Nine Heaven Emperor reacted swiftly and shouted at Master Magaera. "What's going on? Did something happen to Master's fairy soul?"
At that moment, the Nine Heaven Emperor was unaware that the Ancient Ancestors' fairy soul was absent from the Soul Requiem Stone.
"I don't know." Master Magaera was sweating profusely. He wanted to throw the Soul Requiem Stone away, but the power that burst forth shackled him completely. He was prevented from making even the smallest movement and could not use any of his strength.
'Crap!
'It's going to explode.'
Darryl was horror-stricken and wanted to rush to the distance to avoid it, but Master Magaera held him tightly with his other hand. Therefore, he could not escape.
Finally, after chanting the last line, a cold light flashed in Archfiend Antigonus's eyes, and he shouted, "Die!"
The Soul Requiem Stone exploded at his command; it sent forth an earth-shattering rumble. Its power was so devastating that it ravaged the entire valley, causing dust to fill the air.
The explosive force radiated outward, and the Nine Heaven Emperor subconsciously retreated along with his officials. As they backed off, they raised their hands to deploy a protective screen in front of them.
Empress Nuwa, who was closest, failed to avoid the impact. She was sent flying about several dozen meters backward.
Empress Nuwa struggled to stand up and felt overcome with shock as she stared blankly at the dust-covered area.
It was frightening to think that the Soul Requiem Stone contained such terrifying power.
Would Master Magaera and Darryl live through that?
At the same time, the Nine Heaven Emperor and his officials were startled and enraged.
The Nine Heaven Emperor was increasingly anxious and looked around to search for the Ancient Ancestor's fairy soul. However, there was not a single thing inside the giant pit.
It was then that he finally realized he had been deceived. He yelled angrily at Archfiend Antigonus, "How dare you toy with me, Archfiend Antigonus? Where is my master's fairy soul?"
The Nine Heaven Emperor was infuriated.
The fiend race was so cunning that they created a fake image in the Soul Requiem Stone to deceive him.
Faced with the Nine Heaven Emperor's wrath, Archfiend Antigonus laughed and remarked in a sarcastically cold manner, "You have quite the nerve to say that to me, Nine Heaven Brat! Why aren't you boasting about how upright the Godly Region is when Master Magaera launched the surprise attack earlier?
"That makes two of us! As they say, all is fair in love and war!"
'Curse you!'
The Nine Heaven Emperor's expression soured, but he could refute that remark.
After all, Archfiend Antigonus was right—Master Magaera's sudden sneak attack earlier was inappropriate.
