Chapter 598: Grand Finale; Battle Against The Ancient Cthulu! [1]

Sage 54’s explanation was cut short; he could only deviate.

The next moment, he deviated from Sebastian’s life to telling him about the war. According to him, each double blast of the alarm was an indication that the enemies were back, that the Ancient Cthulu was back.

For the past 4 decades, the Myth Realm had been at war with the Ancient Cthulu and his army and the incoming clash will be the 8,919th clash.

The 8,918th clash concluded just 2 hours ago.

As the Ancient Cthulu attacked repeatedly, their advantage grew as the Myth Realm got more damaged. More Sages died, and more Myth Realm folks died, leaving this world more vulnerable with every subsequent clash.

For 4 decades, the Sages have waited for Sebastian’s arrival. During this time, they prepared everything according to their calculations that he needed for him to stand toe to toe with the Ancient Cthulu.

They already prepared the universal essence that he needed to level up to the peak of the cosmic grade realm, everything else was left for him.

They also already prepared the gourd of epiphanies that Sebastian needed to bask in their presence for his universal law comprehension to get to the peak of the cosmic grade realm.

Sebastian was the only hope that the Sages could turn to, so of course, they did everything in their power to make his journey to the top as smooth as possible.

Their calculations showed that Sebastian had the potential to match the Ancient Cthulu in battle but in the end, everything boiled down to Sebastian.

If he flopped, perhaps that would mark the end of the Myth Realm.

Sage 54 gave his last words on behalf of the Sage council. "Prepare and join the war at your own convenience when you feel that you’re ready".

"We don’t know how you are supposed to best the Ancient Cthulu in battle, all we could give was our best and nothing more".

"I know it is a lot but we need you to deduce how to kill him yourself".

With that, all 13 Sages left the Sage council as they started heavy preparations for their 8,919th clash with the Ancient Cthulu and his army.

In just 15 minutes, this pinnacle essence planetary dimension heated up again as hundreds of millions of warships invaded the Myth Realm.

Dozens of universally renowned Cosmic Grade powerhouses led this army as they invaded the Myth Realm again.

The soldiers of the Myth Realm did not know how many times they have done this already, but they didn’t care. With bloodshot eyes and an unwavering heart, they picked their weapons again and clashed with the enemy.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The battle turned extremely heated just a few minutes after it started as casualties started appearing on both sides rapidly.

Over the years, since this was a siege battle, the Sages already worked to fortify the Myth Realm so much that the planet was now a bulwark defense.

In this bulwark defense, they attacked their enemies with a vengeance as the casualty rate of the Ancient Cthulu’s armies instantly racked up.

10 minutes into the battle, the Ancient Cthulu finally showed up!

This monster of evolution had a horrifying appearance. The Ancient Cthulu was an ancient horror of vaguely anthropoid outline, a massive octopus-like head whose face was a mass of feelers, with humongous claws on his hind and forefeet.

The narrow wings on his back completed his status as a horror of evolution.

"Screeeeech!!!!!"

Once he appeared, he screeched loudly like a Wraith as his voice spread far and wide through the planet and outside through space.

Once he completed his screech, he flapped his narrow wings once as he finally descended and pounced on the armies of the Myth Realm.

At this moment, the current situation was like a Hawk pouncing on a cluster of chicks, they had no choice but to run in panic like headless chickens.

He could only pick and annihilate 2 battle formations before they arrived. Armed with their powerful cosmic-grade weapons, the 13 Sages with bloodshot eyes entered the battlefield again as they clashed with the Ancient Cthulu.

"Screeeech!!!" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

The Ancient Cthulu screeched again before throwing his titanic body at them, then another epic confrontation started as he battered the 13 Sages.

The Sages were battered but they persevered and held on to their lives. They fought like their lives depended on it because it did depend on it.

Deep inside the Myth Realm, hidden from the scanning eyes of the Ancient Cthulu, Sebastian was able to see all that transpired.

For the first time in his life, he became aware of the enormous weight that was on his shoulders. If he could not exceed expectations, if the Ancient Cthulu won this war, then everything would be over, and the world would end.

Once Sebastian thought of all the rippling repercussions that could follow the Ancient Cthulu emerging victorious, he felt his blood boiling.

Without hesitation, Sebastian entered the special cultivation chamber that was prepared for him as he absorbed the universal essence.

[Congratulations! You have leveled up once!]

[Congratulations! You have leveled up once!]

As he rapidly leveled up, Sebastian also gave attention to the gourd of epiphanies as his universal law comprehension rapidly increased.

2 hours; 2 hours was all it took for Sebastian to leave the special cultivation chamber. He left the cultivation chamber as a predator at the peak of the cosmic grade realm both in level and origin law comprehension.

Sebastian tried hard to see if he could evolve again but he found none. It seemed that the Sages were right, the cosmic grade realm was the real pinnacle realm, and the Ancient Cthulu must have grown so strong through another means.

To win, Sebastian had to deduce the secret behind the Ancient Cthulu’s abnormal strength. This was a daunting task but he believed that he was up for it.

Sebastian’s eyes glowed golden as his boiling blood, heated emotions, and everything that was at stake in this battle made his energy circulate in a berserk power-filled manner as he finally erupted from his hidden spot.

Sebastian believed; he was ready to face the Ancient Cthulu now!

[You have accessed System Inventory!]

[You have removed Oceania from the System Inventory!]

[You have activated Cosmic Weapon Ability: Ultimate Defense!]

[You have activated Cosmic Weapon Ability: Amplification!]

[You have activated Cosmic Weapon Ability: Universal Water Law!]

Of course, Sebastian was not going into this battle alone. This was a battle that would define all their fates, they were in this together, and with his cosmic grade weapon, all Sebastian’s subjects could support him in this battle.

Whoosh!

Before the armies of the Ancient Cthulu could understand what was going on, a planet-sized weapon of mass destruction accelerated towards their direction as fire was unleashed by the warriors who manned this massive weapon.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

No predator stood any chance before the massive weapon. They obliterated them all with staggering ease but this was not the main target, Oceania accelerated more as it flew straight towards the Ancient Cthulu.

The Ancient Cthulu turned in the nick of time and braced himself for impact. Despite the tense moment, he still had the time to speak.

"Sebastian, my prey, my food..., you are finally here!"

Oceania and the Ancient Cthulu finally collided as the explosive impact swept across everywhere like the explosion of a million nuclear bombs.

BOOM!
