Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill Chapter 731:Crack The Barrier
Previously on Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill...
Another violent explosion erupted nearby.
A demonic spawn broke through Emperor Aldric's defense and charged directly toward Queen Ophelia. The creature let out a horrifying roar as black flames wrapped around its claws. Every step it took caused the surrounding ground to rot and crack beneath its feet. Thick miasma spread behind it like a black tide, swallowing everything in its path.
Before it could even come within striking distance...
Slash!
Emperor Ezekiel appeared before it like a flash of lightning.
His enormous sword swept across the battlefield with terrifying force. The blade instantly split the creature's chest open before sending its enormous body flying across the battlefield. The demonic spawn crashed through several hills before disappearing beneath an avalanche of broken rocks.
Ezekiel did not even stop to look.
Another demonic spawn had already rushed toward him from behind.
Boom!
He turned around and drove his fist directly into the creature's face. Its skull caved in under the impact before he grabbed its broken body and kicked it away with enough force to shatter an entire mountain. The creature disappeared into the distant cliffs as another explosion echoed through the valley.
Even after killing one enemy after another, more continued appearing from the endless darkness beyond the barrier. Every time one fell, another climbed out from the black mist. Their horrifying roars continuously echoed through the battlefield while the four Emperors fought without even a moment to rest.
Emperor Ezekiel's expression gradually became darker.
His patience had almost reached its limit.
"Just how long?!"
He screamed in anger while cutting another demonic spawn cleanly into two pieces. His furious roar echoed across the battlefield while blood and black miasma rained through the air.
The four Emperors continued fighting with everything they had while constantly protecting Queen Ophelia. Emperor Aldric blocked attacks from the front while Emperor Caelus intercepted every creature trying to circle around. Emperor Germin continuously forced back the remaining enemies with wave after wave of powerful attacks. Their coordination was flawless as none of them allowed even a single demonic spawn to come within several dozen meters of the Queen.
Meanwhile...
Queen Ophelia remained completely focused on the enormous barrier.
She stood before the countless glowing runes without paying any attention to the fierce battle happening around her. Her beautiful eyes carefully followed every movement of the magical symbols while her fingers continuously traced invisible lines through the air.
Several more moments passed before her eyes suddenly lit up.
"I am very close to cracking it."
"Keep them occupied."
Her calm voice echoed across the battlefield.
The four Emperors immediately turned toward her.
"Just don't take so long."
Emperor Aldric answered before immediately charging toward another demonic spawn.
Boom!
His sword collided with a massive claw, sending a violent shockwave across the battlefield. Emperor Caelus and Emperor Ezekiel also increased the intensity of their attacks. Their strikes became even fiercer as they desperately bought Queen Ophelia every possible second.
Behind Queen Ophelia, several of Eldoria's greatest court mages quietly observed the barrier.
The expressions on their faces slowly changed from concentration to complete amazement.
One elderly mage slowly shook his head while staring at the countless overlapping runes.
"What a marvelous piece of art."
Another elderly mage looked completely dazed.
"It is certainly at the Ascension Stage."
"I have studied formations for hundreds of years.But I have never seen anything this profound."
A third mage carefully reached one hand toward the barrier before quickly pulling it back.
"The runes are layered upon one another."
"Every single symbol is connected to hundreds of others."
"If even one rune is broken by force..."
"The entire formation may collapse or explode."
Several surrounding mages silently nodded.
The longer they observed the formation, the more unbelievable it appeared. It was no longer simply a defensive barrier. It was a masterpiece of magical engineering far beyond anything they had previously encountered.
Seeing everyone become absorbed in admiration, Queen Ophelia slowly frowned.
"We aren't here to chat."
"Focus on the job at hand."
Her calm but stern voice instantly woke everyone from their dazed state.
The surrounding mages immediately lowered their heads.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Queen Ophelia slowly closed her eyes.
Her spiritual power quietly spread throughout the entire barrier.
Countless glowing runes reflected within her mind while every hidden layer of the enormous formation gradually became clearer before her. She slowly lifted her crystal staff as several small magic circles immediately appeared around its tip.
Her subordinate mages quickly stepped into position around her.
Each of them formed their own magic circles before carefully linking them together with Queen Ophelia's spell. Thin streams of mana connected every mage until the entire formation team functioned as a single unit.
Queen Ophelia carefully guided the flow of mana through the countless runes.
She did not destroy them nor did she force them apart.
Instead, she followed the natural flow of the formation while searching for the smallest weakness hidden within its endless layers.
Time slowly passed.
Sweat gradually formed across several mages' foreheads.
Even Queen Ophelia's breathing became slightly heavier.
"This formation..."
She quietly muttered.
"It truly deserves to be called an Ascension Stage formation."
Her fingers continued moving without stopping.
One glowing rune slowly shifted.
Another quietly rotated.
Several more symbols changed position under her careful guidance.
Tiny portions of the enormous formation slowly rearranged themselves. Every movement required absolute precision because even the smallest mistake would ruin all of their progress and possibly trigger the entire barrier.
The surrounding battlefield continued exploding without pause.
The Emperors fought desperately only a short distance away.
Demonic spawns continuously roared while mountains collapsed under their battles.
Yet Queen Ophelia never allowed herself to become distracted.
Finally...
One of the younger mages suddenly widened his eyes.
"Your Majesty."
"I found it."
Queen Ophelia immediately looked toward the section he indicated.
A faint smile slowly appeared on her face.
"Good."
"Hold that position."
The surrounding mages immediately poured even more mana into the linked formation.
Queen Ophelia raised both hands.
Dozens of new magic circles rapidly appeared before her. They slowly rotated through the air before perfectly aligning with several glowing runes hidden deep within the barrier.
A soft humming sound echoed throughout the mountains.
Click.
One rune shifted.
Click.
Another quietly followed.
Click.
Then another.
The countless runes slowly began rearranging themselves while a thin line of brilliant light gradually appeared within the enormous barrier. The line slowly widened as more hidden pathways revealed themselves under Queen Ophelia's guidance.
Her beautiful eyes suddenly flashed.
"Now!"
Every mage immediately released their prepared spell together.
The countless streams of mana merged into one before flowing directly into the narrow opening.
They did not destroy the barrier.
Instead...
They carefully bypassed it.
The surrounding runes quietly moved aside as though opening a hidden door.
A narrow opening slowly appeared.
One meter.
Then two.
Soon it widened to three meters before finally becoming large enough for everyone to safely pass through.
Queen Ophelia slowly lowered her crystal staff.
A relieved smile finally appeared on her face.
"I have done it!"
Her clear voice echoed throughout the battlefield.
The four Emperors immediately turned toward her.
Hope flashed across every face as they looked at the opening leading through the once impenetrable barrier.
