Chapter 538: Chapter 538 - The Great War: Part 2
the expression on the night lord’s face kept changing . “i think you might have mistaken it . i mean—”“you mean it is for the good of the sanctum, i know . this is what we all want . ” the sage king cut him off . “but the holy emperor doesn’t trust anyone . he couldn’t let you have more authority . he is afraid . ”the night lord looked at him, blinking . “probably you don’t understand, or may i say, you’ve misunderstood me . my life is actually—”
“you are afraid of being suspected of, aren’t you?” the sage king interrupted him again, letting out a confident smile . “let me guess; you are disgruntled . you could not wait to go to the frontline to vent your satisfaction . ”
“i—”
“let me guess; after hearing what i have said, you started to dread . because i have spoken your mind, you are anxious . ” the sage king still smiled . “but don’t worry, i feel you!”
the night lord took a deep breath . “no . i am just—”
“i know . let me guess, because of the environment, you are afraid that others might know what you think . ” the sage king gave him a sympathetic look . “wearing a mask and hiding your feelings must be tiring . ”
the night lord did not know that to say more .
“your expression tells me i have been right . ” there was even more confidence in the sage king’s smile . “but it’s okay . soon, you will leave that behind you, because… i have come .
“in fact, i used to experience the same things as you are now . back then, i was at a loss . but someone woke me up . ” he recalled with his head low .
“you know you have the strength . instead of resigning your will to others, why don’t you decide what you want for yourself? i feel you, night lord, and i am here to help—” a ball of the mother of all boogers suddenly landed and stuck at the corner of his mouth . with a powerful holy light, the booger was hurled at him at such speed as to prevent being shot down midway .
the sage king looked up, words choking in his throat . his smile died, his face turning from cold to anger .
“night lord! how dare you!”
yet another ball of booger was shot into his mouth . the night lord pulled his finger out of his nose, smearing the residue on the nearby wall .
“feel good?”
the sage king’s face turned from pale to maroon . he coughed violently, trying to spit out the booger . but it was too late . it had melted and flowed down his throat . it was one of the night lord’s killer skills .
“i-i’ll kill you!”
there was no plan, no arrangement this time . the sage king was focusing on nothing but the night lord .
he roared, and a circle of bright white light burst out from his body . the light covered an area within a ten-meter-radius around him . it formed into a massive column of light that shot into the sky, breaking up the gray clouds above .
the powerful holy power expanded as if the ripples on a lake . it was so terrifying that they had even started to affect the surging blacktide water outside henricqal .

the nearly limitless holy light started to condense and form into spikes before being hurled at the night lord from all directions . it looked similar to lin sheng’s killer move .
the sage king had not held back when he decided to act . he wanted to take down the night lord in the shortest time possible . the night lord deserved this since he did not appreciate nor show any respect for him . so he used one of the holy power killer moves in the first instance .
a limitless holy light was engulfing the night lord . the clerics were not immune to the holy light attack . the holy light of different persons carried unique marks of will . so receiving the holy light of others could mess up one’s internal strength . that was why holy power cultivators could still fight and kill one another .
a massive amount of holy power spikes was bombarding the spot where the night lord was with terrifying force and sound of explosion . even the least hostile holy power had high damageability .
amid the massive explosion, something was slowly moving inside . some powerful existence, massive but vague, having the same pure, holy power, was spreading its wings, throwing back its head .
just as the sage king thought the night lord might have been badly wounded, if not dead after such brutal bombing, pure white petals suddenly fell from the sky .
formed by the limitless holy power, the petals dropped like rain . a distant singing and chanting voice gradually came from the air .
the white light suddenly collapsed back onto the night light’s body . holy armor of gold covered his body, a cloak, pure white with dragon eye imprints, fluttering behind him .
as the night lord clapped his hands, a golden beam was unsheathed out of thin air . it was a slender sword glowing with flowing golden light . following that, the night lord’s helmet opened in the middle with a clank, revealing his cold and unblemished face .

“do you know the first ray of light?” the night lord looked at the sage king coldly .
“when darkness is about to pass, out of the depths of it comes the first beam of light that pierces through everything .
“its name is dawn!”
he pulled with his hands, unsheathing the entire golden sword as it turned into a heaven-piercing gold spike . as if the first in the sky, the golden beam split the world in half .
dawnbreaker!
it was the most powerful killer move since he achieved the legend . and it was the first time he used it . it was the purest light of dawn bred in the blood of the shadowdragon king . it was a pure light of destruction that pierced through and destroyed everything . a killer move that could reshape the world and break the shackles .
the burst of the golden light seemed to have slashed an indelible wound in the holy power cultivation of the sage king .
“no!” horrified, he tried to bounce back, but he was a little too slow, too late . the holy power in his body started to crumble like an avalanche, melt like ice under the sun before bleeding out of his body and vanishing into thin air .
dawnbreaker could pierce through realms, and cultivations, right to its root . it was such a terrifying killer skill .

“impossible! my holy power!”
the golden light had subsided . the sage king was shaking, traumatized . he could no longer feel a trace of holy power inside him . that meant all of his holy power, which he took years, blood and sweat to cultivate, was gone .
“what have you done?”
before he realized it, his skin, muscles, bones, and everything else started to melt like wax .
“no… my power and strength… and my immortal sacred vessel of destiny! the restored paragon of destiny! no… no…!”
