Chapter 925: Chapter 479: Old Woman_1

The Copper Gorge Extinction Domain and the outside world are separate entities, completely isolated from each other. Owen Bertram’s coronation in the Extinction domain went unnoticed by the outside world. The Summit Metropolitan Office, the Spirit Medicine Market continued to function as usual. But Ilda, who was in the midst of ’preaching’ in a small village, suddenly looked up towards Copper Gorge.

The ’miracle’ she was performing abruptly shattered, and the villagers looked around in confusion, only to find that the woman they had revered as a god had vanished!

Lately, Ilda had noticed her power waning rapidly. Without a temple of her deity, she could not replenish her divine power. The humble ’temples’ newly built in the surrounding villages were incapable of garnering her god’s attention.

But the power of the Seven Mountains is, after all, the power of the Seven Mountains. Ilda was the only one in the vicinity of Copper Gorge to perceive the celestial changes brought about by Owen Bertram’s coronation: No wonder he hasn’t appeared, so this is why.

With one blink, Ilda was within the Copper Gorge Extinction Domain; another blink, and she appeared outside the domain of Owen. In the process, she smiled and articulated a proverb from the Wood Dynasty that she had recently learned: "Every cloud has a silver lining!"

Owen had just acquired the authority of ’Pardon’ and was meticulously pondering how to wield this power. He looked up to see the Red Barbarian woman outside his domain.

Owen slightly parted his lips, uttering a term: "Old woman."

Ilda was livid. Regardless of her being a Seven Mountains Power, she wouldn’t tolerate this!

She sneered and a pitch-black crystal ball appeared in her hand. As it hit the ground, stacks of dark flames surged around, engulfing Owen’s 180-mile domain like mighty waves, causing it to overlap with another independent world.

"Let me show you the real gap between the Six Mountains and the Seven Mountains!"

The power of the Seven Mountains held by the Red Barbarians and the Seventh Level of the Wood Dynasty has similar abilities. They can utilize powerful divine artifacts to "establish a new world", just like "staging a mini-world".

However, Divine Artifacts capable of creating a world are immensely powerful, and the side effects they bring are tremendously frightening. Even a power of the Seven Mountains would struggle to control multiple artifacts - Red Barbarians possessing the power of the Seven Mountains typically manage to control only one to four such artifacts. Among the followers of the Fire of the Stars, none have yet been able to control as many as five of such artifacts.

Therefore, while the followers of the Red Barbarians ascend faster, they are inferior to the cultivators of the Wood Dynasty at the same level.

Even though Ilda’s power has been suppressed time and time again within the territory of the Wood Dynasty, the power of the Seven Mountains will undoubtedly crush the Six Great Realm. She firmly believes that she only needs one Seven Mountains divine artifact ’world’ to kill Owen outright, not leaving him any chance of resurrection.

The pitch-black crystal ball is known as the "Heart of the Night Witch". Once activated it incorporated Owen’s entire domain within, constantly pressing down. The ability of this divine artifact is to create a world of ’Darkness’.

Simultaneously, Ilda secretly brought out a second Seven Mountains Divine Artifact, a dagger resembling a blood moon. Within darkness, its power is heavily boosted, and it can ’assassinate’ all life within the night, inflicting varying degrees of damage depending on the strength of the opponent.

Aimed at the force of the Seven Mountains, coupled with her own world of darkness, it’s a one-strike kill!

The power of the Seven Mountains can knock down thirty percent of an opponent’s life force. This means that even an opponent of equal standing, trapped in her world of darkness, only needs to be ’assassinated’ four times to meet their end.

When it comes to the power of the Eight Mountains, the damage is reduced to only ten percent of an opponent’s life force.

By the time one possesses the power of the Seven Mountains, however, countermeasures are naturally available. Ilda wouldn’t have the opportunity to perform ’assassinate’ four times in a row, let alone when dealing with the power of the Eight Mountains.

Owen, on the other hand, counted his lucky stars. Had Boneset Country deployed a different Seven Mountains power, Owen would have had no choice but to flee, even if survival was still uncertain.

But facing Ilda, Owen still stood a fighting chance.

He deployed the authority of ’Radiance’, and instantly every part of his domain emitted bright light. This light fiercely clashed with Ilda’s ’Heart of the Night Witch’, sparking a loud searing sound. The light piercing into the darkness appeared as if fire met ice water. Ilda still had the upper hand but was obviously facing resistance. The speed at which she was suppressing Owen’s domain noticeably decreased.

Nevertheless, Ilda was still confident. A battle that would have taken three minutes would now just take ten.

Her ’Heart of the Night Witch’ had been incessantly narrowing Owen’s domain down to a hundred-mile radius. If she continued, once Owen’s domain had completely disappeared, and he was left open under her dark night, all she’d need would be one ’assassinate’ to kill him.

But then her own domain ceased to shrink, her ’Heart of the Night Witch’ could no longer advance!

Ilda was caught off guard. She sensed the power of an equivalent ’mini-world’ resisting her divine artifact. And, to her surprise... this ’mini-world’ force appeared to be slightly more powerful than her ’Heart of the Night Witch’!
