Chapter 1417: Chapter 471: Tao Heart Shattered (6k)_2

"What exactly is this ability..."

The Death God spoke with a hint of fear in his voice, gritting his teeth, and used his power to transform into a scythe, swinging it near his severed arm on the shoulder to cut off the remaining half of the limb.

Once detached from the body and no longer sustained by the original power, the remaining half of the severed arm, like the other half that was originally connected to it, shared the same fate, turning to dust within seconds.

And it wasn’t just him.

Earlier, he should have blocked the attacks of other enemies to cover the retreat of his subordinate gods, but now, his actions had been interrupted.

He turned to look behind him.

The artillery fire, not particularly dense, in coordination with the abilities of those equivalent to True God-level powerhouses, did not hit evenly but instead focused all its firepower on two of his subordinate gods.

Every shot of artillery precisely locked onto all the dodging routes of his two subordinate gods.

The blazing white beams, each with slight color differences, swept across like an eraser across a canvas, lightly erasing everything within.

Whether they were insignificant debris or subordinate gods with formidable combat power.

No matter how his subordinate gods pleaded through the faith connection, those artillery strikes from afar relentlessly locked onto the next target.

In that instant, he somewhat understood the fear and helplessness his believers felt when facing the calamities that tore away their loved ones.

This time he...

was defeated.

Completely defeated...

Not only was he utterly crushed by the enemy, but the divine series he led was also completely defeated.

As the Death God, he felt the fear of death for the first time.

Escape, he must survive!

Ever since his Divine Authority had been utterly suppressed, his original pride and Tao Heart had been shattered.

Then, the exceptionally striking enemy’s blow that sent him flying, and the subsequent effortless killing of his subordinate gods, completely crushed his last bit of confidence.

At this moment, he no longer harbored any pride belonging to a Divine King, feeling helpless like an ordinary person.

Taking advantage of the distance he was blasted away, he decisively retreated.

Along the way, using Death Divine Technique to block one intercepting attack after another, he repelled the True God-level enemies trying to obstruct him, heading straight for the Teleportation Gate used to arrive at this colonization star.

After crossing over, he unhesitatingly used Death Divine Technique to destroy the altar of the Teleportation Gate, intercepting the few enemies attempting to pursue him.

His footsteps did not halt; disregarding the gazes of the guarding believers around him, he continued to flee hurriedly.

Behind the disconnected Teleportation Gate, a few witches silently stood watching as the spatial fluctuations disappeared.

"It was severed too decisively, and with the interference of the Power of Faith, it’s somewhat blurred.

But the remaining spatial fluctuations can still restore the corresponding coordinates."

Among the "main character" witches, the Mage who transformed into the Cat Witch frowned, sensed for a moment, and made a judgment.

Originally, to avoid affecting their talents as "main characters" in certain aspects, they were very restrained when transforming into witches, not acquiring power beyond their own rank.

Not to mention the conspicuously inclined power of the Cat Witch.

But before following Bai Yi on this outing, they had advanced to the Seventh Rank, and the restrictions were loosened.

Plus, for the final layer of insurance for the outing, they fused related genes, allowing them to complete the witch race transition.

Several Seventh Rank witches had almost gathered all the mainstream races within the territory, their abilities together being comprehensive.

"His Highness never intended to kill him, leaving him as an excuse to ambush the real enemy.

As long as we drive him back, that’s enough, you return to report to His Highness first.

We’ll stay to clean up the remaining ’Believe in True God’."

The Cat Witch nodded, her tail swayed to cover herself with space power, and the surrounding light distorted a few times before she returned to a corner in outer space.

Reconnecting to the network, she found that Bai Yi hadn’t returned to the flagship yet and hurriedly teleported to his side.

"Your Highness, the plan went smoothly. Just as planned, the Divine King escaped through the Teleportation Gate and immediately destroyed it from the other side.

But the coordinates are locked; we can reconstruct the Teleportation Gate to find that planet anytime."

"Hmm, no rush.

Don’t forget, we didn’t come here to conquer this civilization this time.

It’s to create the illusion of an attack in front of the Gemini Civilization and our true target this time.

Lunning has already infiltrated and hidden over there, the later this war delays, the more intel they can gather, aligning more with our interests.

However, don’t let the remaining Seventh Rank escape this time."

With this battle not only achieving all the usual objectives but also validating a new ability, Bai Yi was in a very good mood, with leisure to explain his motives to the witch.

"Understood, but...

I think I might no longer need to take action."

The Cat Witch turned her gaze towards the battlefield, since the pursuit of the self-titled Divine King Death God began, the artillery fire from the fleet behind hadn’t stopped.

Even though that fleet was just a small one, even one that, if placed in the starry sky, any Seventh Rank could easily handle.
