Chapter 1067: Divine Mark World
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
One simple word seemed to be pressing the pause button on the entire world.
An indescribable will and power was disseminated, freezing time and space again.
Su Ping was unaffected, thanks to Heather’s protection. In any case, the four Superior Gods didn’t see him as a threat.
Therefore, he had been granted the privilege of observing the battle.
Joanna was still as a statue because of Avril’s divine world; all her paths and laws came to a halt. Even her perfect paths had been confined; the surging power inside her body was frozen too; it could no longer be unleashed!
However, she was a top Ascendant expert, and even Celestials would have a hard time freezing her mind instantly!
Besides, she had made preparations from the moment they started fighting.
Boom!
A resounding noise burst out, which sounded like a furious beast.
It was akin to thousands of engines being activated at the same time, causing blood-stirring sound waves.
A dazzling brilliance surfaced again. Joanna’s body and face cracked; the Divine Mark on her forehead cracked a bit, and the powerful aura of paths and laws flowed outward.
“Break!!”
Joanna roared, with determination and aggressiveness clearly displayed on her pretty golden face. Being the strongest war goddess in the Demigod Burial, she had ample battle experience and she had understood a myriad of paths; she only needed an opportunity to enter the supreme stage.
“Have you lost your mind?”
The three Superior Gods changed their expressions. Heather showed a similar reaction; she wanted to stop her, but she hesitated for a moment.
“Detonating your Divine Mark and constitution will be your undoing, even if you leave this place!” Avril couldn’t help but shout, and eased her strength for a bit. But then, Joanna seized the opportunity—
However, the opportunity was short lived.
Shivalello took action. He was a Superior God, and his reaction was much faster than Joanna’s. The summoned an illusion of his divine world; it was a hazy chaotic world.
He pushed the void and pressed it down, resonating with the laws of nature!
Joanna’s body had been about to break free, but was restrained again. She seemed to be constrained by an invisible hand. The power she had unleashed by burning her constitution was also confined in her body.
“It’s useless.”
Shivalello’s eyes were cold and intimidating. “We used to see to our own affairs in the past, so we needed you; that is why your position has only been second to ours. Each of us is hardly able to suppress you, but there’s no way you can escape if two of us join hands. You won’t even be able to kill yourself if three of us take action!”
Joanna’s divine power was confined, but the determination in her eyes wasn’t abated. “Is that so? It just so happens that I learned something in the Heaven Path Institute; I’ll be trying it on you!”
An illusion emerged from the cracked Divine Mark on her forehead. There was another small world inside.
“A second small world?”
All four Superior Gods were shocked by this; only Su Ping remained calm.
“I had long heard that the Heaven Path Institute had a special cultivation technique which allows the creation of an additional world. It is said that such a technique is the only way leading to the ultimate truth!”
“You’ve mastered a second small world…”
They were shocked, suspicious, and a little bit frightened.
They had heard a lot about the Heaven Path Institute before they left the Archean Divinity. However, they never had a chance to study there because of their limited potential, and they weren’t part of core members of their family.
They had only heard of that legendary cultivation technique, but were never able to figure it out.
Joanna’s second world reveal was proof that she had indeed been to the Archean Divinity with Su Ping; his protector did have access to that place.
The gods had been rather suspicios in the beginning, only believing 70% of what Su Ping said, even after Joanna had sworn on her Divine Mark.
However, even if they had completely trust in her, it didn’t mean that they would have chosen to work for Su Ping. They would have still asked Su Ping’s backer to move their land to the Archean Divinity.
She established a second small world that quickly?
Su Ping was similarly shocked. Joanna was a true genius. But is it still possible to create a small world when you’re already an Ascendant?
This left him slightly puzzled. Such a thing was supposed to be impossible, according to his mentor in the Heaven Path Institute.
Small worlds would be sealed inside the Divine Mark once condensed. It was indeed possible for an Ascendant to create another small world, but that would be pointless if the small world couldn’t be integrated with their Divine Mark; the improvement would be insignificant.
Wait, her second small world seems to be rather unusual…
Su Ping quickly noticed that the second small world on Joanna’s forehead was a bit unusual. His shock increased after a closer look.
Joanna’s second small world wasn’t connected to the previous small world; they were independent. Her second small world was established right inside her Divine Mark!
To put it simply, she had condensed her Divine Mark, making it a second small world, which accommodated her first small world as a container. The two small worlds had melded in such a way!
Still, further enhancement was impossible; after all, there was only one Divine Mark!
“Die!”
The small world inside the Divine Mark on Joanna’s forehead—including the small world that she had originally condensed—overlapped and she became twice as powerful.
There was a boom; the confinement around her was broken and she was able to move again. However, there seemed to be some sort of force holding her back; more than half of her divine power was restrained. As for the rest, she had condensed it into her spear to stab towards the three enthroned Superior Gods!
“You’re really trying to get killed!”
Avril’s expression was slightly different, showing surprise and discomfort. She found it hard to understand why Joanna, a goddess, would demean herself like that!
She was risking her own life for a human being!
Is it because they are partners?
But, members of different species could never be partners.
Who would call an ant ‘brother’, and fight for him putting one’s life on the line?
That was hilarious and unreasonable!
“She’s crazy! Suppress her already!” Eborr’s handsome face was completely cold too. He also took action relentlessly.
Heather—who had been protecting Su Ping—-blinked, and also said, “Talk some sense into her if you want her to live. There’s still some time.”
She stared at Su Ping, wanting to find out what he would choose.
Su Ping, however, put on a smile. “Even if she dies, so what?”
Heather’s face was frozen.
Then, fury appeared on her face.
The warmth and gentleness in her eyes disappeared; it was replaced by an imposing gravitas. Her face was extremely cold. “She’s risking her life for you, yet you regard her as a tool?”
“You’re mistaken.”
Seeing the change in her attitude, Su Ping thought for a moment and said, “She’s my employee and partner. If she does die, it would be because her boss would have died first.”
“What do you mean?”
“It seems that she didn’t tell you everything…” Su Ping chuckled. He had realized that those Superior Gods didn’t know they could resurrect; it seemed that Joanna left that part out when she spoke to them. Did she foresee that this would happen, or did she unconsciously keep his secret?
Either way, she was a dutiful employee and partner.
Su Ping’s explanation left Heather frowning in confusion. She had noticed that Su Ping was calm and casual the whole time, without the slightest fear of death. He wouldn’t have been as bold, even if the bigshot was protecting him, unless the latter were guarding him the whole time!
Heather’s pupils contracted.. She had goosebumps all over her body as she quickly examined the surroundings.
