Chapter 1223: Moons

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Suddenly, a sharp pain assaulted Souta’s mind.

"Argh!!"

"This again..." Souta gritted his teeth as he dropped to his knees. He glanced at the vajra sword and said, "Do it!"

Reaching out, he grabbed the vajra sword and infused his voice with energy once more.

"In my name as an Eternal Eclipse Primordian! As the Emperor of Monsters, I command all of you to attack the calamity!!"

His voice reverberated throughout the entire Land of Fire Light.

It was the command of an Emperor.

Every monster within the Land of Fire Light heard the proclamation.

Souta stared ahead as his vision slowly blurred. He couldn’t hold on any longer. This happened every time he underwent evolution, which was why he was reluctant to evolve without first securing the safety of his surroundings.

He clenched the vajra sword tightly as he felt Saya attempting to invade his mind.

Her voice resounded within him, "I can’t do it. This lingering will of mine can’t overcome your body. You have to lower your defenses."

"O-Okay..." Souta replied with great effort. "I really wanted to test my current strength. What a pity. I’ll leave it to you."

A faint smile formed on his face before he lost consciousness.

Thud!

Souta fell to the ground.

A few seconds passed before he opened his eyes once more.

"Don’t worry, Souta. Leave everything to me. I won’t let anyone harm you anymore." Saya’s voice escaped from his mouth.

This was their plan.

Souta knew he would lose consciousness once his evolution was complete, leaving him utterly helpless. Because of that, he decided to let Saya take control of his body once his consciousness faded, just in case something unexpected occurred.

’Souta’ stretched his body and looked down at his hands with amazement. He couldn’t help but say, "Souta is really amazing. This body is far more powerful than any initial fifth-stage monster."

A ball of energy formed in his palm, illuminating the surroundings.

"So this is douion... a fusion of dream power and elemental power."

This power was far from simple, as it encompassed countless aspects. Even Saya didn’t fully understand it.

It was different from anything she had witnessed in the past.

Had everything changed?

’Souta’ shook his head as his expression turned gloomy. He looked up and muttered, "The calamity... This isn’t my first time facing it. This land holds many secrets."

In the next moment, his figure flashed toward the surface. ’Souta’ tore through the bedrock and emerged aboveground in less than a second.

...

While the Land of Fire Light was engulfed in calamity, the rest of the world continued to move as countless battles erupted simultaneously.

In the region between the Angel Faction and the Fallen Angel Faction, the war raged on with no signs of ending anytime soon. Several other factions entered the conflict zone, hoping to claim a share of what the Ruler of Gluttony had left behind.

Naturally, the strongest among these factions were the overlords of the land.

The Angels and the Fallen Angels.

These two factions were the most active in cleansing the remnants of the Ruler of Gluttony. The remains of the Gluttony Army scattered across the continent, hunted relentlessly by every major faction on God’s Continent.

Meanwhile, the battle in the Three Theaters escalated to an entirely new level.

The Lord of the Wood took the initiative to advance. Her overwhelming might shook the land, and within a single day, she obliterated an entire Large Country. Even the God-rank beings from the Holy Lands were unable to stop her.

The Lord of the Wood was one of the most powerful Monster Lords in existence, and this was precisely the reason she had been sealed in the past. Killing her would have been at least ten times more difficult than sealing her away.

Her children spread across multiple territories. Some people dared to take the risk and challenge these monsters. The corpses of fourth- and fifth-stage monsters were extremely valuable. Third-stage corpses were sufficient for some, but they held little appeal for higher-level experts.

In the Giza Continent, a deadly plague broke out in the western region. It affected tens of millions of people across three Large Countries, including the Great Country—the Purple Cloud Dynasty.

The plague spread at a terrifying pace and had already claimed millions of lives. Ordinary people could only succumb to it, as most died within three days. Even experts below the Shackled Realm were not spared. Numerous professional clerics were dispatched, but they could only slow the spread of the disease. The plague was incredibly difficult to eradicate. Some professionals concluded that it was unnatural, as a strange energy signature was deeply embedded within it.

The Purple Cloud Dynasty was greatly disturbed by the situation and dispatched several high-level experts to investigate the true origin of the plague.

Somewhere within the Imperium...

A large tribe, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, lived deep within the jungle beside an enormous river.

The people who lived here all shared the same distinct features. They were slender, had purple skin, and possessed pointed ears.

They were demis known as the Moon Elves.

Within a dome-shaped dwelling constructed from high-quality materials resided the Elder Shaman of the elves.

The Elder Shaman was a beautiful, slender elf with long silver hair draped over her shoulders. She floated in the air in a lotus position, her eyes closed. A crescent moon symbol glowed faintly on her forehead.

Ohm!!

The Elder Shaman’s eyes snapped open in shock. She descended to the ground and hurried outside.

"I felt something..."

She stood beneath the open sky, staring upward.

Another elf shaman noticed her sudden reaction and quickly stepped forward to stand beside her. With a concerned expression, she asked, "Did something happen, Elder Rynvesir?"

The Elder Shaman lowered her gaze before replying, "It felt like something just took a piece of the moon..."

The elf shaman followed her gaze to the sky and tilted her head in confusion. She felt nothing unusual. If someone had truly taken a piece of the moon, it would have drawn the attention of countless beings.

"I don’t mean it physically," the Elder Shaman continued. "I mean it conceptually. It felt as though something seized the power of the moon itself."

For the Moon Elves, the moons were sacred entities, objects of immense power and absolute authority.

...

On the other hand, in the Immortal Land...

Within a vast and magnificent palace resided a goddess. She had long black hair and fair, flawless skin, and she wore the traditional attire of the Immortal Land. Her inner robe was light and plain, yet gentle energy flowed through its fabric, while her outer robe was exquisitely embroidered with golden linings.

She was Chang’e, the Moon Goddess.

At this moment, Chang’e lifted her gaze toward the sky as a figure appeared beside her.

The figure was a small white rabbit with pure crimson eyes. It looked ordinary at first glance, yet anyone with sufficient perception could sense the terrifying power hidden within its small body.

It was a Monster Lord, the Empyrean Moon Jade.

"Have you sensed it?" the Monster Lord asked.

"Yes. Although it’s faint, someone has established a connection with the moons. It’s only a small amount of power, but even so, it is a great force. One that could aid anyone," Chang’e replied.

"Is it a secret technique? Or perhaps someone walking a similar path?" the Monster Lord mused. "For now, the power is insignificant, but who knows what the future holds."

With that, the Monster Lord vanished once more.

The power of the moon.

Similar phenomena unfolded across the world. Beings with deep connections to the moons whether divine or mortal all felt it. All of them sensed that someone had formed a new bond with the moons.

Some were intrigued, while others were merely surprised.

The power of the moon was unique, as it reflected the nature of its wielder.

Tsukuyomi, Chang’e, Iah, Chandra, Diana, Bakunawa, and other gods and Monster Lords all sensed it. Even certain mortals with profound lunar affinity felt the disturbance. Had it been an ordinary occurrence, none of them would have paid it any attention. After all, there were special races such as the Moon Elves, who were born with innate connections to the moons. Such connections were natural and commonplace.

However, this time was different.

This connection appeared abruptly, reaching directly toward the moons themselves. Its depth far exceeded that of any special race.

Perhaps it was enlightenment.

Perhaps a secret technique.

Or perhaps the emergence of an entirely new monster path.

...

Land of Fire Light.

What ’Souta’ saw on the surface made his expression turn grave.

It was far worse than he had imagined.

The entire Nature Zone City was surrounded by so-called dark apparitions.

’Souta’ hovered in the air and released his aura.

Boom!!

Droplets of blood rose into the sky, and in just a matter of seconds, a vast sea of blood formed above the city, covering the upper portion of the giant tree.

"Die!"

A voice echoed.
