I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess! – Chapter 998

chapter 45 Battle of Light (Part 3)
The red-robed cardinals and judgment paladins appeared in full view, their spiritual power and demonic power surging out. Verafia bit her silver teeth, a wisp of pain passing through her. her delicate slender fingers were pierced as if by sharp light needles, and divine blood trickled out.
And within the light, a thicker darkness arose, a one-eyed being terrifying to behold, as mighty as a mountain range, nearly ten meters tall, and instantly expanding to the size of a mountain range, blocking the dragon tearing through the light!
The dragon roared and flapped its wings, freezing the sky in an instant with intensely frozen ice.
Facing the dark giant that rose like a mountain range to block the path, the bone-chilling cold that felt like the world’s freezing point poured down with the dragon’s might, instantly freezing everything, light and dark alike, before a blinding flash of light erupted, shattering it into powdered ice frost!
Igg’s sword landed on the ground as he yanked it free. A soft, icy figure also landed beside him. her small body instinctively slid down the pouring earth. Igg reached out and grabbed her hand, “Anrielle?”
The young loli with soft snow-white hair did not reply. Her large, clear eyes, like an ice lake, widened. Igg followed her gaze.
what appeared before them was the collapse of the darkness. The light covering the holy kingdom on the outer layer was also shattering amidst the endless ice-cold mist. The torn space was accumulating rampant energy, stirring up a storm of destruction.
Amidst the shattering light, priests chanted fanatically, and with each chant, high-level divine arts were unleashed like light rays. Sacred knights and red-robed cardinals led the way, magic cruisers accumulating astonishing power in the sky with their cannons, while at the same time, thousands upon thousands of fanatically devoted church soldiers surged forward like a tide, vowing to defend the light of their faith with their lives!
Elven and human warriors also unfolded their Saint Rank domains. Hundreds of Saint-level beings, covering almost the strongest combat power of humans and elves, erupted into battle here. Even legends would struggle to resist. Demonic power surged like a tidal wave, easily tearing through extremely resilient layers of space.
Suddenly, a light and melodious chant sounded, and the chaotic sea of demonic power seemed to fall silent in that instant. The endless brilliant light dimmed. A pure white, gentle figure slowly rose. her golden hair, far more beautiful than the dawn, cascaded smoothly along her pure white silk dress, gently fluttering, as if the most dazzling treasure in the world, falling into everyone’s eyes.
The Life Goddess, with her porcelain-like, flawless, and gentle slender hand, lifted it, and the fluorescent light of life gathered into a beautiful divine sword. as she swung her jade arm down, a divine radiance flashed. In an instant, light rays shimmered, tearing apart the charging magic cruisers, and the divine light of life cascaded upon the earth.
“Veer?”
A familiar, tangible blessing fell upon him. This was Verafia’s blessing by plucking the strings of life, simultaneously connecting the origin of life force of everyone present to the World Tree, and the surging, sacred power of life instantly filled his entire body.
Even though Igg was now close to legendary, and had received Verafia’s divine power countless times, under her blessing, his life force and demonic power had increased by nearly thirty percent. Not to mention the humans and elves from other Sacred Domains, for them, the amplification was almost doubled.
And it was even more than that. Igg knew that Verafia, as the Life Goddess, was using her own divine power to bear damage in order to protect everyone’s lives by connecting all of them to the World Tree.
Unless it exceeded the carrying limit and the added divine power was consumed, Verafia could save everyone’s lives, even from fatal injuries.
Unlike the followers who showed hateful, enraged light, the human knights looked surprised, and the elves were even more excited. Igg could hear the voice of their faith. With prayers to Verafia, and using their Saint Rank domains to empower their weapons, they advanced towards the tide-like enemies.
The Goddess’s figure hovered at the center of the world, soft light emanating. Suddenly, an extremely dazzling light surged forward. Verafia’s golden eyes trembled, and the jade-like divine sword of life in her slender hand thrust out. the intense light obscured her falling figure, but it stopped abruptly in front of a beam of bright light.
The gorgeous long sword hummed with the trembling of the girl’s snow-white wrists. from the bright light, a sacred scepter emerged, entwined with brilliant Holy Light Power.
Pope Moon supported the Staff of Light with one hand, his body covered in divine power, no less brilliant, even more so than Verafia’s, his eyes turning a dazzling brilliant gold, filled with the authority of light. The Pope lowered his face and looked at the girl before him with a smile:
“Miss Verafia, I did indeed look forward to seeing you again in the City of Holy Light. However, I never expected you to be so impatient, not even waiting for Fatter?”
“Moon, I can handle you myself.”
Verafia’s eyes flashed with divine radiance, her dawn-gold hair dancing between the resonance of life and light. Although her tone was as usual, it still appeared noble and imposing.
The girl’s slender jade wrist pressed down, her divine sword slightly lowered, unleashing astonishing law fluctuations between her divine sword and the Staff of Light.
Her slender eyelashes trembled slightly above her golden eyes as she gazed at the Pope behind the light. Compared to when Moon, in Anol Colon, had used an incarnation to seize Sariel’s creation of light, Verafia could clearly see that he was now surging with intense and terrifying Holy Light Power throughout his body, even usurping laws and authorities!
Moon smiled as he looked at the girl’s flawless face: “You are a noble Goddess, and if you wish to eliminate me, it would naturally be effortless. However, Goddess Princess, can mortals and gods truly bridge the gap?”
As if the God of Light had descended here, the brilliant sacred light once again overshadowed Verafia’s radiance, submerging her in a sea of light: “However, you have bestowed your blessing upon the people present in advance… Life Goddess, in your eyes, do the lives of those believers surpass your own?”
Moon’s voice, half-mocking, was filled with a profound chill. In Moon’s eyes, facing himself who had already gained the God of Light’s power, Verafia dividing her divine power was a choice of self-destruction!
“Veer!”
From the Life Goddess bestowing her blessing to Moon appearing with the sacred light and submerging her, it was all in a mere instant. Even Igg found it difficult to react. The blazing light shone upon him, and a searing pain arose.
A tremendous roar sounded. Ophi, who had transformed into a dragon, was also anxious. her draconic wings fluttered, and her ice-hardened claws tore apart a magic warship, but she was surrounded and intercepted by the warships.
In the distance, Andes, Misella, and the Paladin Commander George had engaged in battle at its peak from the start. Amidst Silver Moon’s spells, Dawn and the “Envoy of Light” clashed fiercely!
Igg held Anrielle with one hand, End pulling out to cut through the light before him. Suddenly, the girl’s small hand trembled in his. Igg’s gaze shifted. Through the gap in the severed light, darkness poured in like viscous mercury.
The mountain-like colossal figure cast a thick shadow before him.
“Is it you… Soum?”
