"Holy art Thou!.....

May everyone hallow Your name.

May Your kingdom come, may Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Holy art Thou! Holy art Thou!

How can sinners gaze upon, the majesty and glory of the True Lord;

How each presents a splendid golden crown before the throne;

Holy art Thou! Holy art Thou!....

Who was, who is, and who will be forever and ever!"

Amidst the solemn hymn all around.

Aiven stood surrounded by a shattering azure vortex, from which a dazzling and graceful light figure emerged, casually raising her delicate jade hand.

Snap!

Numerous blood-hued divine claws that had already approached were suddenly pulverized into bone dust by an inexplicable force, and swept away by the sea.

Soon, the divine light slightly withdrew.

There appeared an angel with an angel halo atop her head like a Sun Crown, three pairs of platinum wings unfurled behind her, dressed in magnificent royal attire, and diamond high heels on her feet.

Golden hair like warm sunlight, sparkling blue starry eyes, no earthly words could describe even a fraction of her beauty.

Behind her sprawling divine light like an infinite sea, or a brilliant galaxy, connecting heaven and earth, stretching infinitely to the starry void.

Among them, galleys, dragon-head ships, galleons, sail battleships, Galliot-type heavy cruisers, flying clippers... and mass-produced [Dreadnought-class: All-Heavy Cannon Battleships] and other ships.

Cleaving through the azure waves, riding the wind and surging ahead fearlessly.

It was indeed the leader of Aiven’s own camp—True God "Sea Monarchy" Hekater!

Due to the [Nautical Divine Position], even if acting later than the opponent, she could incarnate as the "Royal Authority Angels" and arrive first.

The opponent’s actions, however, were not slow either.

Swish——!

A boundless river of blood surged forth, manifesting a god opposite the "Royal Authority Angels".

It was an angel with a rust-red halo, three pairs of bloody wings unfurled behind him, wearing a battle helmet and black full-body heavy armor, a tall male angel.

White long hair, blood-red eyes, brows sharp as knives, although extraordinarily handsome, an aura of infinite brutality and bloodlust emanated from him.

Behind him, a raging blood-colored divine light seemed connected to innumerable worlds.

Within, the horrific sounds of battle cries, piteous wails shook the heavens, war, massacre, torture, enslavement, genocide... all sorts of inhumane violence unfolding one by one.

He came not as the "God of Black Wings", the main incarnation "Angel of Prosperity", but as the representative of steel and blood, violence and destruction, the "Violence Angels"!

Upon arriving, he immediately waved a hand towards the "God of Sleep", who had reverted to a normal human form and was pitiful beyond compare, sending them to his Divine Kingdom.

Afterwards.

Only then did he fix his blood-red eyes upon Aiven, who stood holding a gun in military gear, murderous intent so cold it seemed to freeze the sea, forcing words out like an infernal wind:

"Galliot? You’re quite something! I didn’t expect in the material world, which is nearing the end of an era, someone like you would appear, quite remarkable!"

Aiven appeared "overwhelmed", humbly responding:

"Ah, you’re too kind, it’s not as good as you say!"

The "Violence Angels" raised an eyebrow.

Smirk!

Hekater chuckled lightly, she couldn’t recall the last time she saw Sessi, this conceited fellow, being put in his place.

Moreover, she couldn’t bear to see her favored one being bullied, stepping lightly to stand before Aiven.

Boom——!

Just a glance between the incarnations of two True Gods confronting directly, the authority clash of [Violence] and [Royal Authority], already stirred terrifying tides of energy.

Aside from the places where the two gods stood, the fan-shaped shock waves seemed transformed into a ruthless [Tyrant], sweeping over the underwater city, flattening countless towering structures.

Immediately, both deities vanished into the deep seabed, leaving Aiven alone amidst the submerged city, half destroyed at a glance.

At this moment, Aiven finally managed to catch his breath.

"Phew! For a moment, I thought I’d give my first life here."

In his heart, Angie’s laughter rang immediately:

"Hehe, even if the Goddess didn’t show, teacher’s escape abilities are unmatched in the world!"

Even the True Gods, World Consciousness, or even "Era Catastrophe" cannot totally annihilate the ecosystem of Herag Star.

Other demigods’ immortality is relative, but Aiven’s immortality is absolute.

Strong or not? Hard to describe. Survival skills? Unmatched.

"Uh, I’ll just take it as a compliment."

Aiven didn’t hesitate, dashed onto the water’s surface, and looked up into the sky.

At this moment, the embodiments of the "Royal Authority Angel" and "Violence Angel" have already concealed their sacred forms, leaving only two magnificent divine lights flickering like aurorae in the high sky.

One gold and one red, they did not seem incongruous against the twilight sky.

Moreover.

By this time, it was not only the high-tier transcendents of the New Continent, as the spiritual tide abruptly elevated a tier and gradually spread across the entire Material World.

New Continent, Southern Continent, Source Continent, Peacock Islands... sensing this terrifying force, a group of [Demigods] and [Truth Embodiments], employed their means.

Through the connection with the World Root Source, they "looked" over here.

In the Spiritual World, the thundering shout of the "Violence Angel" continuously echoed as he took the lead in making accusations:

"Hekater, you need to give me an explanation for this matter!"

In fact, this True God could not but be angry.

The "Chaos Worm" from another star and the "God of Sleep" who deeply cultivated "Dream Realm" and "Spirit Realm" for two eras are the most critical elements of that plan.

Even though the "God of Black Wings", as a True God, led the plan personally, these two Ancient Gods holding the world’s deep secrets were indispensable.

Almost losing one to Aiven today, the "God of Black Wings" felt not only anger but also terror.

"Hehe, Sessi! Didn’t expect you to have a knack for joking.

Are Gods going to start following the troublemakers-have-reason trend of those ’democratic countries’? If you dare act recklessly, don’t say you’re not dead; even if killed, you deserve it!"

Contrary to the raging "Violence Angel", the "Royal Authority Angel" was in a fantastic mood. The reason for fighting didn’t matter, only winning in the end did.

And indeed, as a True God with a foundational divine position as [Royal Authority], he boldly retaliated against the "Violence Angel".

A single sentence directly ignited the fearful "Violence Angel".

Clang—!

A clear sword cry echoed, and the vast twilight rays suddenly pivoted, stirring the clouded sky, sending a powerful thrust toward Hekater.

The "Royal Authority Angel" did not back down, and the golden twilight equally transformed into a rainbow, thrusting an awe-inspiring sword.

These two [Humanized Gods] in combat seemed far less overwhelming than [Natural Deities], flickering as if jumping into another dimension.

Only the flowing brilliance across the sky could be seen, without harming a blade of grass in the Material World.

On the surface, far from the jaw-dropping "Ocean Awakens", "Ten Days Across the Sky" moments, in reality, it’s simplicity in grandness, returning to nature.

Those [Demigods] and [Truth Embodiments] watching this combat deeply focused on the sky, watching as if in rapture.

True Gods’ clashes directly pit various paths against each other, unintentionally revealing the truths hidden deep within the World Root Source.

Each Tier 5 entity saw different scenes in this battle.

Art of Command, Golden Halberds and Iron Horses, Battle Array Conquest... all undeniably beneficial to their chosen paths.

Aiven opened the [Eye of Profound Wisdom], witnessing the ultimate evolution of unparalleled swordsmanship!

Originally, his swordsmanship level had reached the earthly pinnacle of "Perfection", yet appeared absurdly childish in this level of True God combat.

Aiven now somewhat understood why the seven True Gods all had the "Titled Knight" Extraordinary Path—clearly a convergence of different paths.

However.

Only a few breaths later, the expansive rays suddenly flickered and vanished, leaving the evening sky a clear, vast blue, with both True God’s embodiments disappearing without a trace.

"Aiven..."

At this time, Aiven received communication from the Goddess.

The two sides have reached an agreement, this matter ends here, the "God of Black Wings" will no longer trouble him, and both sides will restrict personnel, prohibiting Demigod level entities from attacking each other’s lower-level personnel.

Aiven felt a bit disappointed, yet knew this was the best outcome.

Just then, azure clouds surged beside Aiven.

Olivia helped the newly awakened Nymph emerge, nodding gently to Aiven.

Snap—!

The latter leaned against his daughter’s embrace, snapped fingers.

The [Deceitful Dream] that had been quietly floating on the sea instantly vanished from the surface, having retreated deep into the Dream Realm.
