From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

```

Although he was indeed one of the two external allies who ambushed the Thunderous Monarch that year, he was not the "Madam Spirit Essence" Byrne had always dreaded.

His flames could turn into a kind of ultra-high temperature thread within a distance of three hundred meters, and although it reduced the area and distance of the attack, the lethality of the searing threads was greatly increased!

"Die."

The middle-aged man's voice was deep, and with a raise of his hand, a dozen or so fire-colored threads, too fine to be seen by the naked eye, flew out and instantly swept toward Chris's body.

Finally.

I've lured you out.

Chris raised his head expressionlessly, and his cold eyes unleashed the power of the Eyes of Conviction on Sage Dark Blue!

Because the power of the "Angel's Cage" would forcibly consume all Spiritual Power, he chose to use the Eyes of Conviction at this moment!

Sage Dark Blue instantly froze on the spot, his expression plunging into deep disorientation.

Sins.

An endless sea of sins.

The things he had done, the countless families he had destroyed, the innocent lives he had taken, all surrounded him in his illusion!

Though Sage Dark Blue possessed a resolute will and would soon free himself from their grip, that bit of time was enough.

Chris immediately stepped aside from his staff, his agile body attempting to dodge the dozen or so fire-colored threads, but he was still a step late; his body was severed, losing a leg and an arm in an instant.

The intensely focused middle-aged man, on the verge of killing Chris, got struck by a splash of pure water light on his face. Although the wound was nearly negligible, his vision was obstructed, preventing him from finishing off Chris completely.

Priestess Cyan Blue watched ferociously from the sidelines, and although it was of little use, Yeager still cast "Target Lock" on the middle-aged man.

"Damn it!"

The middle-age man immediately retreated to regain his distance, and upon restoring his vision, was shocked to discover that Chris's limbs had already regrown in the next second.

At the same time, he decapitated Sage Dark Blue straightforwardly with his black blade.

That wound was fundamentally irreparable due to the "Lethality."

The moment the head rolled, Chris destroyed the body thoroughly, leaving no chance behind.

The persistent bane of the East Coast, the one who had schemed and attacked the East Coast back then, causing Irene to lose a great deal of her lifespan, killing that Thunderous Monarch, the object of Zayne's immense hatred, Sage Dark Blue...

He was finally dead for good.

"How is this possible?"

The middle-aged man was utterly stunned. That Chris Fischer, his recovery rate was on par with that of the "Wrathful Angel," the head of the "Mighty Angel" family!

At that moment, Lilian had also completely exhausted her strength and fallen into unconsciousness.

"You chose wrong," Chris said flatly. If the man had attacked the other five again, he might have been able to achieve more, but attacking him was an unwise choice.

However, from the middle-aged man's perspective, the decision he had made was the correct one.

With the only "Monarch powerful expert" temporarily restrained, all he had to do was focus fire and kill Chris to secure the victory, and the remaining few were not to be feared.

What Chris didn't realize was that if the middle-aged man truly attacked the Fischer family members again, Karl, who had been silently observing the battle, would release the "connection of the black mist."

Apart from Cyan Blue and Chris, the others would immediately be forced to return and would not die as a result.

Chris's cold, merciless gaze settled on the middle-aged man, making him feel a tremendous sense of fear, like a harbinger of death himself.

"You..."

In the decades since his ascension to become a Monarch, he had never felt such fear!

``` Stay updated with empire

As a Monarch powerful expert who had fled from the Seven Stars, the middle-aged man had always felt deep down that there were few adversaries in the Eastern Four Kingdoms worth his fear.

But now he thought he was wrong!

Was that person really just a low-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponent?

Chris remained silent, knowing deep inside that the battle was about to come to a complete end.

In order to prevent the enemy from having reinforcements, he decided to unleash the "Eyes of Conviction" to kill that enemy, for he didn't want to lose his combat strength and hadn't chosen the "Angel's Cage."

"It's not over yet!"

The middle-aged man bellowed, staring wide-eyed. However, just by looking at Chris, a deep fear gripped his heart, and his hands trembled slightly. That man, who seemed a blend of angel and grim reaper, possessed abilities that were both bizarre and powerful.

He had no idea how to triumph!

Suddenly, both of them noticed something: a hundred meters away there was a dark blue box, continuously emitting an aura akin to a vast sea. It appeared and opened without warning, empty inside, yet a strong sense of suppression emanated from it.

Chris's pupils constricted, feeling fear for the first time from a presence other than the Lord of the Lost.

What was that?

Could it be a highly ranked forbidden rare artifact?

The sense of danger was too intense!

He was instantly faced with a choice!

Should he cast "Angel's Cage" on it, attempting to disrupt its effects, or use "Eyes of Conviction" on the middle-aged man?

Chris instantly understood he could only choose the latter, because if he lost all his Spiritual Power, it would mean they would all be killed by that middle-aged man!

The middle-aged man recognized the box too, as it was the reward given to him by the Sage Dark Blue of the Sea God Cult.

It was said to be a powerful forbidden rare artifact.

"Hm?"

The middle-aged man was clearly taken aback because he didn't feel the forbidden rare artifact taking effect, and how could it be activated if the Sage Dark Blue was already dead?

Karl too had noticed the box by then and suddenly had a strange sensation.

"Strange, what is that, also a forbidden rare artifact?"

The dark blue box, undoubtedly with an aura of ocean, also bore the essence of a forbidden artifact, and inside it contained something more akin to...

Some kind of ritual?

After a moment of thought, the middle-aged man seemed to realize something and began screaming frantically!

"Dark Blue! You bastard, you've plotted against me!"

He then fell into confusion because of the Eyes of Conviction.

Chris prayed that he hadn't made the wrong choice!

At the same time, an incredibly terrifying aura burst out from the box, causing Chris and everyone else who was awake to involuntarily widen their eyes in a fear that came from the depths of their hearts!

Every single person was rooted to the spot by an intense fear!

Chris wanted to cast "Angel's Cage" on the box again, only to find his body completely immobilized, unable to move even an inch.

What was that?

He took a deep breath.

Had he, made the wrong choice?

The indifferent voice of the Sage Dark Blue came from the empty box.

"We willingly sacrifice our souls to be Your bait, O sovereign of the seas, ruler of all, the Sea God, please resurrect immediately!"
