Chapter 867

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Leon was still increasing in strength.

The ridiculous extent of his strength was worrying Sui Xiong as Sui Xiong felt that Leon may eventually touch the enchantment of the Main Plane, which was left behind by Goddess of Life.

The limit of the enchantment was familiar to Sui Xiong. Previously, he had met with the previous Emperor of Orcs, Junero Tiger. At that time, this Emperor had almost expanded beyond the limit of the enchantment of the Main Plane. Even if the Emperor had reduced his power to the best of his abilities, to the point where there was little force, his strong spirit would still possess shockingly powerful energy, which nearly went against the enchantment of the Main Plane.

Leon of course would not suppress his own abilities. His current abilities now were comparable to that of Emperor Junero Tiger’s soul’s strength.

One could also say that Leon was now very close to pushing against the enchantment of the Main Plane as well.

Such a high level of power almost went against all the limits within the Main Plane. By right, such power was actually supposed to be invincible. In this case, gods would possibly be defeated by Leon right now, and yet Leon was still unable to defeat the dragon.

This was because the dragon was becoming stronger as well and at a comparable speed to Leon.

They were like two racehorses neck-to-neck in a race, both continually chasing each other with one leading ahead and vice versa at differing times.

When Leon was ahead, he would wave his sword and use the Purification Array to give the dragon a beating so severe that it could not even lift its head. On the other hand, when the dragon was leading, Leon continued to do the same thing and try his best to suppress the dragon so that it would not rush off and escape.

Although the situations were different, Leon’s methods were still the same, be it for attacking or defensive purposes. In any case, this was still war and his key war strategy.

However, Sui Xiong became more and more anxious. Because of the God of Eagle’s resurrection attempts, Leon was able to increase in power. This meant that Leon’s new status was not really earned or real, just like when the God of Eagle had become strengthened with the three Artifacts. Once the God of Eagle left Leon’s body, Leon would quickly fall back to his original and true level. He would even possibly be weaker than before. After all, when one went from the legendary peak to demigod, they would indeed temporarily lose some of their strength.

In that case, why was the dragon able to continuously grow in strength alongside Leon?

Even if the dragon’s powers originated from a Holy Spirit, how strong could this Holy Spirit possibly be? After all, by right, the powers that the dragon could inherit were limited even if the Holy Spirit gave all its powers away. If a mere Holy Spirit could compare to the powers of the God of Eagle, one would have reason to fear him and his suspicious background.

Just like how the God of Eagle was only able to pass on limited strength to Leon due to his long-ago downfall, the Holy Spirit had also fallen after all.

Sui Xiong considered this matter carefully in his head and felt a little worried.

If the dragon’s source of strength was really from a Holy Spirit, that Holy Spirit would have to at least have some extremely strong god with great Divine Powers behind it. This extremely strong god would probably be one of the strongest among those with great Divine Powers as well! Gods that were strong enough to be considered in this category would include the God of Light, Sky Devourer Canine, the God of Justice, etc.

If these great gods did not have their own churches, God Kingdoms and patron saints, Sui Xiong would have assumed that this unknown Holy Spirit was one of their patron saints!

At this moment, Wenner suddenly smiled.

“This world is really full of coincidences!” Wenner said. “Two gods who both wish to resurrect have somehow met together in battle, this is such a rare occurrence, one that happens maybe once every thousand years, if at all?”

Sui Xiong jolted slightly, startled at this comment, yet did not lose his focused gaze on the dragon.

Currently, Leon’s situation was as tense as an acrobat walking on a tightrope. Sui Xiong was focusing on being his safety net, and regardless of what happened to the dragon, he would not really care to investigate further at the moment.

He was really too preoccupied with Leon.

Wenner understood this point as well and became like a temporary guide, explaining the situation to Sui Xiong.

“In a deep part of the dragon’s soul, there is a hibernating divinity. This divinity, which swallowed some other patron saint’s divinity, is growing in strength rapidly. If everything goes well for it, it could use the dragon’s body to awaken itself and resurrect from there.”

“Can you tell whose divinity it is?” Sui Xiong asked.

“Currently no, but I am investigating the matter. However, it seems familiar, and I have a feeling that I’ve met him before. I also feel like we probably met more than once,” Wenner replied.

“But you still don’t remember who he is?” Sui Xiong was taken aback.

“Well, I’ve always defeated him, and losers aren’t worth remembering. Of course, it may also be because his divinity was not unique enough. I’ve met with too many gods and are familiar with many of them. Such activity is not uncommon, and out of those gods, many have fallen. I can’t tell who exactly is the one playing tricks with the dragon right now.”

“You really have too many friends.”

“Yes, and they’re all old friends. Although I must admit, many of them have fallen at my hands.”

If Sui Xiong had been drinking water at that moment, he would have spat it all out immediately.

“Your definition of ‘old friend’ is certainly abnormal!”

Wenner smiled and said, “Anyway, those events have all already happened in the past. In my opinion, if I don’t intend to attack and win over the other party, I wouldn’t even bother to do research and focus on them!”

“So, those who you focus and research on could be said to be extremely unfortunate then!”

“Of course, I don’t deny this at all.” Wenner arched his body slightly and smiled in a very satisfied way.

After a while, Wenner suddenly furrowed his brows and said, “A new wave of events is happening.”

“What’s going on?” Sui Xiong could not help but frown.

“The Commonwealth of Gold Coin’s aristocrats and merchants are fighting again.”

“Didn’t they start fighting a long time ago?” Sui Xiong asked doubtfully before understanding Wenner’s actual meaning.

Shocked, he said, “You mean to say… They’ve started an actual battle? Now? It’s so late, why are they doing so at this time?”

This whole situation sounded highly illogical. For people on Earth, if they wanted to fight, they would usually do so at sunrise. They would prepare breakfast at the break of dawn, get the soldiers to wake up early to consume food and rest a little afterward before setting out a minute after the sun had fully risen. Then, they would start battling. If the battle was not too intense, during the afternoon, they would pause and eat lunch. If the battle was extremely intense, the troops would take turns to eat while the fight continued on and on… Dinner was a must as there was no one on Earth who could fight intensely without some rest and ample food. Usually, once it got dark in the evening, the battle would have ended.

It was rare to see battles start when it was already late at night. Of course, that did not mean that such battles were impossible. Usually, though, they were coincidental encounters. If both parties were already in confrontation with each other eons ago but suddenly chose to fight in the dark, well, this was the first time Sui Xiong was hearing about such a thing.

After all, how could one possibly fight when it was pitch dark?

“Which side started the battle first?” Sui Xiong could not help but ask.

“The aristocrats, they started it.”

“Stupid dog bastards! They’re really idiotic!” Sui Xiong was extremely dissatisfied and pursed his lips in disdain.
