Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener - Chapter 579

Chapter 579: Chapter 579: Blocked Again? The Final Moment!
Silver Moon Wolf God shook his head, forcing himself to calm down. There were only a few seconds left. He could clearly feel a strange and powerful force gradually breaking through the world’s suppression, attempting to breach this realm.

If the intruder managed to succeed, their plan to destroy the Royal City would collapse entirely. The entire battle would descend into chaos, dragging everyone into an unforeseen situation. Therefore, he absolutely could not allow the enemy to descend, nor could he let the Royal City continue merging with the world!

Clenching his teeth, Silver Moon Wolf God ignored Sterl, who remained unscathed due to his use of artifacts, and immediately turned his gaze toward the Royal City. In that instant, all the gods and soldiers of the Orichalcum nation trembled. They felt an intense and pure killing intent rising from Silver Moon Wolf God’s body.

“Damn it, his target is the Royal City!”

Eterna instantly realized what was happening, and the other gods also showed expressions of grave concern and panic. While the higher-level god from Orichalcum was about to descend, if the Royal City was attacked now, everything would be in vain. Worse still, the god who was about to descend might be classified as an outsider by the world and be forcibly expelled if the Royal City’s connection was severed.

Thus, they had no choice but to block those final few seconds, no matter the cost.

In an instant, all the gods completed their communication and began converging toward the Royal City. They prepared to use their combined strength to counter Silver Moon Wolf God. But before they could reach their destination, a powerful Blood Realm descended, moving faster than them. It instantly enveloped all the gods, and under the influence of the realm’s slowing power, their speed and actions drastically decreased.

“A group of ants dares to block me?”

Silver Moon Wolf God snorted coldly. If he couldn’t handle that dogged Hades who had been sticking to him like glue, how could he not deal with these gods and soldiers? It was ridiculous. The fact that a mere Divine Power level god could fight back against him like that made him feel like he had been living a dog’s life, with no need for a higher-level divine being.

As he looked at the gods who were being suppressed by the upper-level Lunar Divine Authority field, Silver Moon Wolf God’s mood shifted. The confusion that had been seeded in their minds by Sterl began to dissipate. Their confidence returned to its normal state. After all, it wasn’t that he was too weak; it was just that Hades was simply too abnormal.

Without hesitation, Silver Moon Wolf God unleashed the Blood Wheel Turbulence he had previously used against Sterl. Countless Blood Circles formed into a torrent of annihilation, rushing toward the Royal City. Each Blood Circle was as powerful as the full force of a weak Divine Power god!

But that wasn’t all. After releasing the torrent, Silver Moon Wolf God began to gather his own power once more. A deep silver light began to condense at the mark on his forehead, and it was none other than the Fallen Moon’s Death Ray, the most powerful ability he had mastered—unquestionably his most devastating attack.

At that moment, the situation around the Royal City became critically urgent. Eterna and the other gods watched helplessly as the Blood Wheel Turbulence drew closer. They wanted to activate their powers to resist, but with the slowing effect of the Blood Realm, their movements were too slow. They feared that by the time their powers activated, the torrent would already strike the Royal City.

Furthermore, each Blood Circle in the Blood Wheel Turbulence was as potent as the full force of a weak Divine Power god. Even if they managed to intercept, with only thirty or so gods remaining, the casualties would be devastating.

Moreover, the Blood Wheel Turbulence was just a regular attack from Silver Moon Wolf God, meant to weaken the Royal City’s defenses. Although the Royal City hadn’t fully merged with the world, it had already begun to fuse partially, giving it considerable defensive strength. Once the Blood Wheel Turbulence shattered those defenses, only then would the true lethal blow—Fallen Moon’s Death Ray—strike.

“No! Even if I die, I won’t let you destroy the Royal City!”

Eterna roared, pushing himself to the limit as he activated the three Divine Authorities he commanded. His face twisted with a mixture of unwillingness and hatred. If any of the gods had the strongest connection to the Royal City, it was certainly him.

Not only was the Royal City the source of his birth and growth, but it also embodied all of his glory and value accumulated over the years. Born as the god of the Royal City, he would die as its soul. He could never allow it to be destroyed right before his eyes, no matter the cost.

In this moment, he called upon all of his trump cards. Shields and armor that radiated divine light, one-time-use destructive artifacts, and various precious secret treasures—everything he had accumulated was brought out in a desperate bid.

Boom!

As the Blood Wheel Turbulence surged toward him, the treasures Eterna had summoned were immediately destroyed in a vast majority. More and more Blood Circles relentlessly shredded Eterna’s foundation and accumulated power. The sensation was akin to being surrounded by dozens, even hundreds, of opponents at the same level, leaving him helpless and unable to fight back. All he could do was watch as death drew ever closer!

With a deep sigh, Eterna closed his eyes in despair. He finally understood why, despite their foundation being stronger than that of the Ashen Temple, they had repeatedly fallen into disadvantage and even faced fatal threats. It was because… their former glory was too heavy. While it had lifted them high, it also fueled their arrogance and overconfidence. Now, the Orichalcum Kingdom had long lost its former prestige. Blind pride had led them to their downfall, and the outcome of failure was inevitable.

Thinking of this, Eterna felt a sense of release but also bitterness. If given another chance, he was certain he could have done better, that he would never allow the Orichalcum Kingdom to fall into such a state. But alas, there was no such thing as a cure for regret. Even the God of Time could not turn back time and change the outcome of what had already happened.

However, at that moment!

Amid the countless Blood Circles, a golden light suddenly erupted. This golden light seemed to possess some indestructible quality, resisting the relentless onslaught of the Blood Circles, and maintaining a brilliant, dazzling appearance. From within this golden light, a figure slowly emerged, resembling a celestial being descending from the upper realms. Eterna widened his eyes in disbelief, for he recognized the figure. It was none other than Hades!

Seeing Hades, surrounded by dazzling golden light, shining like a small sun, Eterna found himself at a loss for words. Could it be that he was experiencing a second chance at life? Or was it a mixture of joy and relief? Either way, he was saved, and so was the Royal City of Orichalcum.

Though several Blood Circles still struck the Royal City, destroying many of the weapons and formations laid out on its surface, the damage was minimal. With the Royal City’s power, it was nothing significant. This damage would not affect its fusion with the world to any great extent.

“You again?! You again!?!”

Silver Moon Wolf God’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He had originally thought that after Hades had witnessed his power, he would be cautious and refrain from intervening again. After all, a survival artifact capable of withstanding the full might of an Upper-Tier Divine was extraordinarily rare. Moreover, if he attracted Hades’ hatred, no amount of such artifacts would help him. Even ten or twenty of them wouldn’t stand a chance against an enraged Upper-Tier Divine.

But he never imagined that this Hades would dare to stand in his way, obstructing the great plans of the Ashen Temple! This man deserved to be thrown into the Fire of Purgatory, where his soul would be eternally burned and refined in agony!

“I’ll see how you stop this!!”

In a fit of rage, he abruptly unleashed the Fallen Moon’s Death Ray, which he had been gathering for a long time. Yet, just before the devastating beam, capable of piercing the very fabric of space itself, could strike Sterl, a new layer of shield materialized around him.

This time, it wasn’t the familiar golden light like a small sun, but rather a silvery-white shield with faint diamond-like sparkles, enveloping him.

Boom!

The shield held for only a few seconds before shattering, but the Fallen Moon’s Death Ray was completely absorbed and nullified, losing all its power and threat.

Now, even Eterna, who had been protected by Sterl, was stunned. He stared blankly at Sterl, hardly able to believe what he was seeing. How many life-saving artifacts did Hades still have? This was the most powerful attack of an Upper-Tier Divine, and yet it was so easily blocked?

“No! No one can stop me! No one can stand in the way of my Ashen Temple’s grand cause!”

At this point, Silver Moon Wolf God was truly desperate. Only a few seconds remained. If he couldn’t break through the Royal City’s defenses and disrupt its fusion with the world, the Upper-Tier Divine of Orichalcum would descend and take control. After that, such an opportunity would never come again, and the Royal City would fully merge with the world.

Once that happened, the Ashen Temple would face a powerful and ancient Royal City on the offensive, and the consequences would be unimaginable. This final few seconds would determine not only the fate of Orichalcum but also the fate of the Ashen Temple!

At that exact moment, with only three seconds left before the Upper-Tier Divine descended, a long space rift suddenly appeared above the Royal City. It was nearly identical to the one that had appeared when Silver Moon Wolf God first descended.

As time passed, the rift grew longer and wider, as if some terrifying force was about to break into the world. A sharp and heavy pressure suddenly surged from the rift!

This was the dignity of the Upper-Tier Divine, and Orichalcum’s reinforcements were almost here!

Silver Moon Wolf God’s face turned dark with fury, his eyes full of malice. If it was just one Upper-Tier Divine, he wouldn’t be so worried. Among his peers, his combat strength was quite formidable.

In terms of both attack and vitality, he was confident that he was not weaker than most Upper-Tier Divines. But the key issue was that Orichalcum still had that damnable Hades!

Though just a weak Divine Power, Hades possessed means that could threaten an Upper-Tier Divine!
