Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang maintained the distance while looking for the third one. The two God Ranks in his sight were already in the transformation, and the third one was someone with a bow. That meant the third one would most likely snipe him from afar, so he tried to locate the third one. He expanded the Spirit Eyes up to three thousand meters, yet he could not locate Lasius.

'What is this? Are they planning something?' All this time, the three God Ranks had been fighting him without any strategy, fighting face to face. It made him worried that the three God Ranks started to use strategy to fight him.

While Tang Shaoyang was concerned about the third person, Gungnir made his move. His movement was undetected by Tang Shaoyang, who was concerned about Lasius. Gungnir arrived in front of Tang Shaoyang with his knee, hitting Tang Shaoyang in the chest.

"What? Are you underestimating us just because we can't kill you quicker?"

The knee sent Tang Shaoyang dozens of meters away in the air, but he managed to bounce back from the impact with his wings. Before he could recollect himself back, Windra was already right above him with a kick. The kick landed right on Tang Shaoyang's head, crashing him down to the ground once more.

Tang Shaoyang immediately got up, annoyed and frustrated. He had to face two God Ranks and also worried about the third God Rank that might kill him from a distance. His head was ringing from the kick, and his chest felt tight from the early knee, making it hard to breathe.

"What's wrong? Where was your cockiness earlier, hah?" Gungnir was already right in front of Tang Shaoyang without Tang Shaoyang noticing.

"Since I have already used my transformation, I might as well show you the power of God!"

Right after Gungnir said that the ground shook. The dark sky turned darker as the ground cracked. In the next movement, lightning filled the dark sky. Not just the sky but the cracks on the ground filled by the lightning as well. Above and below, flooding everything with lightning. That was Gungnir's Lightning Domain.

As if that was not enough, Windra also used his Wind Domain. He created windstorms, blowing the giant trees and cutting everything in the path of the wind. The two God Ranks used their domain power, overwhelming Tang Shaoyang with their domains. The wind swept the cloud of dust that covered Gungnir and Tang Shaoyang, who stood face to face.

In front of the overwhelming power, Tang Shaoyang laughed, mocking laughter coming out of his mouth. "You are this low, huh? Why are you two so proud of ganging up an Ancient Rank like me? God, more like dogs to me. Move in a pack to hunt the weaker."

The smile on Gungnir's face froze the moment Tang Shaoyang mentioned that, right on his sore spot. If this had to be known, this would tarnish his reputation as a God.

"Silent!" A deafening roar came from Gungnir's mouth. At the same time, the lightning from the crack and the sky shot toward Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang was not expecting the lightning from the crack would attack him and failed to dodge in time. He received the lightning with his body, stiffening his movement. Then Gungnir reached his neck and slammed him down to the ground, not just once, but several times.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground cracked, making a small pit the size of Tang Shaoyang's body. Tang Shaoyang endured the pain in his back, but that was not enough to destroy his dragon scale. However, he was horrified by what happened next. All the lightning from the crack crawled onto him, bathing in the lightning.

"ARGHHHHHHH!!!" A scream came from Tang Shaoyang's mouth after a long time. He could no longer hold the pain as the lightning reached all parts of his body, including the internal parts. Despite being in pain, he did not release his grasp on his weapon, holding it while waiting for his chance.

After thirty seconds of bathing in lightning, Tang Shaoyang released the Titan Blade and the Dragon Destroyer. He moved his hands to grab Gungnir's neck in turn. Then he followed it with Slayer Blades, creating seven Slayer Blades at the same time.

Before Tang Shaoyang could direct the Slayer Blade, he sensed an extreme danger from above. He raised his feet and kicked Gungnir in the chest. He then grabbed the two weapons and used blink to create a distance from Gungnir. While doing it, he moved the seven Slayer Blades toward Gungnir. He used his Spirit Eyes to direct the Slayer Blade toward the target.

"ARGHHH!"

This time it was Gungnir's turn to scream. Out of seven Slayer Blades, four of them pierced his body. Two on his shoulders, one on the right belly, and the last one on his thigh, forcing Gungnir to kneel with one knee. Blood flowed out of the body made of lightning.

Tang Shaoyang breathed heavily, but there was a smile on his face. It was not his plan to be caught, but it worked perfectly well for him. He managed to injure one of them. 'This should be enough to buy more time until the next Divine Lightning…. I hope so….'

As he said that, in his heart, Windra appeared right in front of him. The tip of the spear was an inch away from his right eye. Tang Shaoyang spun the Titan Blade in his right hand, changing the spear's direction to the side while he ducked to the left. He avoided the attack, but then the spear appeared again. This time the spear aimed at his belly. Tang Shaoyang flapped his wing, lifting his body into the air. He then slammed the Titan Blade and The Dragon Destroyer forward.

Boom! Boom!

Tang Shaoyang missed the target as he realized his weapons had hit the ground. Then he quickly realized that he was surrounded by Windstorms. The blade of wind cut through the scale, reaching his skin. He was bleeding all over his body, but Tang Shaoyang managed to get rid of the windstorms with his Slayer Energy. He coated the Titan Blade with Slayer Energy and cut through the wind.

By the time he finished dealing with the windstorms, he had looked up. Gungnir had pulled the Slayer Blades from his body, but his body was still bleeding profusely.

"That damned dragon scale!" Windra was quite annoyed when he mentioned the dragon scale. The Windstorm was supposed to cut Tang Shaoyang into pieces, yet the dragon scale protected the guy, leaving with just swallow cuts.

"Buahahahahaha…." Tang Shaoyang laughed loudly.

"It seems you have gone crazy after realizing the gap between us, hah?" Gungnir looked down at the laughing mortal.

"No! I am just proud of myself that I am still alive after fighting three God Ranks. Isn't that something I should be proud of?" Tang Shaoyang grinned ear to ear. "Not just I will survive, but I will slay God!"

"Do you think you can slay a God?" Gungnir suddenly appeared in front of Tang Shaoyang, showcasing the speed that always caught Tang Shaoyang off guard.

"I do think it's possible." Tang Shaoyang was ready for Gungnir as he immediately slashed the Titan Blade toward Gungnir's near. He coated the blade with the Slayer Energy, determined to get Gungnir's head in one strike.

However, Gungnir was no longer careless when he faced Tang Shaoyang anymore, thinking of every possibility, including the blade strike. The lightning on the ground formed a tentacle, catching the blade in the air. The lightning then reached Tang Shaoyang's body, and the lightning was much stronger than before, forcing him to release the grip on the Titan Blade.

The lightning tentacle then threw the Titan Blade, and at the same time, two more lightning tentacles formed binding Tang Shaoyang's feet. A spark of lightning burst out, overflowing toward Tang Shaoyang's whole body. That forced Tang Shaoyang to release the grip on his last weapon.

Losing both his weapons, he tried to form Slayer Blade, but the slayer blade broke midway. Gungnir placed his right foot on the chest and pinned Tang Shaoyang down to the ground. For the first time, Tang Shaoyang coughed off blood, but the blood quickly evaporated because of the lightning around his body.

Tang Shaoyang quickly realized that he could not move his body anymore. He was paralyzed on the ground, and he lost the feeling in his body. It was just pain, an overwhelming pain all over his body and internal parts. Despite the situation he was in, he was still smiling.

"You can still smile?" Gungnir hunched his body and looked at Tang Shaoyang closer.

"Why can't I smile?" Tang Shaoyang refuted while maintaining his smile. "I have done everything I can in this unfair fight, so I have no regret."

"Do you?" Gungnir maintained his flat expression. "There's no unfair fight. There's no unfairness in this world, but just a victor and a loser. The strong and the weak. You don't lose the unfair fight; you lose the fight because you are weak."

"Buahahahahaha…." Tang Shaoyang laughed louder, hearing that came from Gungnir. "Three God Ranks against one Ancient Rank…."

He did not finish his words as Gungnir trampled his chest once more. More blood evaporated from the lightning.

"You said that you have no regrets? I wonder…." Gungnir stared into Tang Shaoyang's eyes. "I remembered Antorias said that you have an Empire and also many women…." A wide grin formed on Gungnir's face. "I wonder if you still can say you have no regret once I destroy your empire and turn all your women into prostitutes for monsters and demons. Are you sure you have no regret?"

Tang Shaoyang's expression froze when he heard the threat. That was not something hard to do for Gungnir. As long as the Divine Church could find access to Earth, there was no way the empire could survive against the God Ranks.

At this moment, the sky roared. That was a signal of the arrival of the Divine Lightning. This was the eighth wave of the Divine Lightning that came for them.

"I will block the Divine Lightning. You kill him!" Windra told Gungnir calmly. He was in his transformation, so the Divine Lightning should not be an issue for him. Lasius was injured because of three Divine Lightning, but this time it was just two Divine Lightning. This should not be a big problem for him. He created a shield with his wind, five layers of shields for the incoming Divine Lightning.

Kaboom! Kaboom!

The Divine Lightning struck him and caused an explosion in the air. The explosion left Gungnir's ear ringing. It made him lose his hearing for a while, forcing him to turn around. He looked up at his friend. The explosion with the spark of Divine Lighting filled the sky, shocking Gungnir. Then in the next moment, he saw a figure falling from the explosion. Windra was free-falling from the sky, unconscious.
