Chapter 472: Chapter 452: Unexpected Divine Power

Optimist just felt a lightness wash over him, as the soft sensation he could once perceive disappeared.

Even without turning around, he could see the radiant Holy Light spreading in all directions, illuminating everything.

At the same time, he felt an incredibly powerful yet inexplicably familiar force appear behind him.

*That power was vast and grand, gentle and warm.*

The energy waves it emitted brushed over his body, instinctively reminding him of warm sunlight.

Not only that, but this power also had a miraculous effect.

*Just like when he had carried the Goddess’s body earlier, as this energy wave swept over him, Optimist felt his physical state rapidly improving once again.*

*Even the pressure from the BOSS seemed to disappear under the cover of this power.*

However, the attack from the "Creator God" did not slow down.

She formed her hands into claws, reaching in Optimist’s direction.

The black mist surrounding her body continued to spread, its dense and malevolent abyssal aura almost suffocating, and the power she displayed was even more formidable.

*Without a doubt, if Optimist got hit, his fate might not be much better than those players who were instantly killed.*

Still, this time, the "Creator God’s" attack was destined to miss.

As the warm power spread behind him, Optimist suddenly found everything around him slowing down.

Then, a beautiful figure radiating gentle light strolled past him.

In a white Holy Divine Dress, with long silver hair and those dreamlike, perfect features in profile...

He couldn’t be more familiar with this image.

Or rather, no more familiar than any player in "Elf Kingdom."

And this was the body Optimist had been carrying across the map just now...

This was the Eve Goddess.

In an instant, Optimist felt both joy and excitement.

Goddess!

This was the Eve Goddess!

The Goddess had descended!

However, compared to what the players had seen in the storyline before, the Goddess looked more vivid and real at this moment, inspiring more longing.

*It was an indescribable feeling.*

*Optimist felt that the Goddess at this moment was less dignified but more approachable than before.*

He saw the Goddess move in front of him, shielding him, and as she passed, she gave him a slight smile.

That smile was beautiful, enchanting, friendly, and warm.

Seeing this, Optimist felt as if the whole world was about to intoxicate him...

Then, he saw the Goddess gently extend her right hand, palm outward, directly facing the "Creator God."

The shimmering light swirled around her.

With just this motion, the "Creator God" seemed to crash into an invisible barrier and could no longer advance.

"Blasphemer! Die!"

She let out an angry roar again, and the black mist surrounding her grew denser.

However, the Goddess simply stood there, seemingly not even considering her as a threat.

The Goddess gently extended her right hand, thumb and forefinger placed together, and gave a slight flick towards the advancing "Creator God"...

With just that flick, carrying terrifying power, the entire space twisted slightly.

In that instant, the "Creator God," as if struck by a massive force, was launched backward by the gentle flick.

In the astonished eyes of the players, they saw this once-overbearing BOSS being flung away like a stone...

She crashed into countless palace pillars and flew over a thousand meters before finally being buried in rubble....

For a moment, there was a brief silence on the battlefield.

Soon enough, it turned into cheers:

"Hahaha, it’s the Goddess, the Goddess has descended!"

"So... so beautiful! So... strong!"

"Wow! That was too fierce, right? Instant kill?"

"As expected of my wife!"

"Hail the Goddess! Long live the Goddess!"

The players looked at the Goddess with excitement beyond measure.

Of course, their actions did not stop.

The Goddess had descended, and the balance of this battle would now completely tilt in their favor.

Now was the perfect time to beat the drowning enemy and gain experience!

For a moment, the players’ morale soared once more.

All the players were shouting as they battled with the palace guardians and the residents who had turned into monsters.

While players were highly motivated, Eve quickly familiarized herself with this new body after descending for a few seconds.

At this moment, contrary to the inscrutable appearance in the players’ eyes, she had already stirred up a storm in her heart.

"Did it actually store so much Divine Power of life?! Did this ’Creator God’ use this body as a container for storing Divine Power?"

Feeling the immense life force within her, Eve felt extremely delighted.

*Before descending, her perception wasn’t quite clear.*

However, once she took full control of this body, she discovered that nearly two thousand points of Divine Power had accumulated deep within it!

*This was equivalent to the Divine Power of a veteran True God with a faint Divine Power essence.*

However, although delighted, upon careful thought, Eve understood why the other party would do this.

This "Creator God" was merely a demigod.

And the maximum Divine Power a demigod could control was only 300 points.

To store more Divine Power, alternate containers had to be found.

And clearly, a True God’s body was the best container!

In fact, Eve suspected that the other party intended to use this body as the foundation for Divine Enthronement to step into the realm of a True God.

Likewise, after descending, Eve also detected this world’s draining of life potential.

However, what surprised her, yet seemed logical, was that the direction of this life potential’s drainage was none other than the body she had descended into!

In other words, the life potential drained from this world was accumulated to serve this body’s Divine Power.

At this point, Eve finally understood why the other party was so furious after the players had seized this body.

*It was nothing but an interception!*

Understanding this, Eve’s gaze once again scanned the earth and sky.

For some reason, after descending into this world, Eve sensed that her Divine Soul Power was more active than anticipated.

Not just that.

She felt a mysterious closeness to this realm...

*She even had an intuition—*

If she wished, by spending just ten days to half a month, she could utilize the newly acquired fragments of the Life Scepter to fully control this half-plane!

*Essentially achieving the same level as this "Creator God!"*

*This was strange.*

*Because logically, if one wants to control a half-plane, even a True God would need a considerable length of time to fuse with the half-plane’s source.*

The time would be measured in years at least.

Although this half-plane was low in energy level, its laws were quite complete.

To control it, more time would undoubtedly be needed....

However, Eve had a gut feeling that she wouldn’t need to spend too much time to gain control.

*This was the intuition of a True God.*

*And a True God’s intuition regarding a half-plane is highly accurate, nearly akin to premonition.*

"The source of this half-plane is peculiar! Could it be related to me? Or is the prolonged life potential drainage establishing some mysterious connection between this body and the half-plane?"

*Eve’s thoughts stirred.*

She could not destroy this half-plane!

After the battle, she planned to thoroughly investigate the half-plane’s secrets!

She thought this in her heart.

Having decided the half-plane’s future in her mind, Eve once again turned her gaze towards the ruins where the "Creator God" had fallen.

Although she was extremely satisfied with this body, she didn’t think that her previous strike had destroyed the enemy.

*In fact, Eve believed that although the opponent was sent flying by her sudden attack, the opponent itself only appeared a bit battered and hadn’t suffered any real damage.*

As expected, just as Eve predicted.

A moment later, the ruins suddenly exploded, and the "Creator God’s" form reappeared before everyone’s eyes.

The black mist enveloped her body still swirled, and the hood obscuring her face hadn’t even sustained a scratch.

Moreover, her aura remained undiminished.

Seeing this scene, the players’ cheering subsided instantly.

Many gaped, their expressions astonished:

"No way? Still unharmed?"

"What... what kind of monster is this? The defensive power is just too terrifying, isn’t it?"

"What’s going on?"

The players’ expressions were like they’d seen a ghost.

Yet, Eve wasn’t surprised.

This half-plane, at its highest, was at the Silver Upper Peak.

That was to say, even if Eve’s power was immense, here she could only exert Silver Upper Peak strength.

What just happened was probably at that level.

And at this level of attack, while it sent the opponent flying, it couldn’t possibly cause harm.

That was because the essence of this "Creator God" was demigod.

Even if the half-plane’s energy level limited the power’s exertion, it did not change her demigod essence.

A demigod’s body is very special.

Without restrictions, a demigod’s body will be protected by the laws she comprehends.

Under the protection of those laws, a demigod’s body can be immune to all ordinary physical and magical attacks below gold level.

Meaning, the mere Silver level’s power couldn’t possibly inflict fatal injury....

At most, as just seen, the impact could send the opponent flying.

Of course, if stronger power was exerted, damage could naturally be inflicted on her.

However, doing so would exceed the half-plane’s limits, causing the already unstable half-plane to rapidly collapse....

Meaning, winning through conventional combat would require defeating her at the cost of the half-plane’s destruction.

*It’s a deadlock.*

However, Eve wasn’t planning to destroy this half-plane.

At least not now, when this half-plane couldn’t be destroyed!

And she had long planned how to deal with the enemy.

In conventional combat, she couldn’t win without destroying the half-plane.

*Then, unconventional means would suffice.*

Since the demigod’s body was immune to a certain level of attack, sealing her strength, especially the Power of Laws, to where she couldn’t be immune to this attack level was enough.

In other words, just like with Demon God Azazel earlier, seal her power and, particularly, the Power of Laws!

Back when Azazel’s Power of Laws was sealed, players could bite a chunk off him.

Though they still couldn’t kill her, weakening her power would suffice.

Now, this "Creator God" wasn’t a True God.

Her understanding of laws was just comprehension, not mastery.

Therefore, once her Power of Laws was sealed, everything would be stable.

With this thought, an amulet flashed into Eve’s hand.

True Divine Artifact—Heart of Wither!
