Looking at the cold, aloof face before him, so vastly different from the one he had once known, Luca suddenly smiled—a smile full of murderous intent.
“You can try,” he said coldly. The moment his words fell, the Solar Divine Flame enveloped his entire body.
The golden sun, which had previously vanished from the sky, reappeared with a blazing fury, as if it sought to burn a hole through the very heavens and earth.
The divine might surged, and golden flames swept across the heavens!
For the third time, Gods’ Revelation!
The space beneath Luca’s feet shattered violently, revealing deep, black rifts in the fabric of space. Laws of power intertwined and condensed, forming a majestic and glorious golden armor that enveloped his form.
He became a streak of golden lightning, charging straight toward the Goddess of Dawn in the sky, shooting directly into the heavens.
“Since that’s the case, then you shall die!” From the boundless starry sky, the Goddess of Dawn’s gaze was cold. Brilliant divine light erupted from her palm. The radiance of the stars in the night sky gathered, transforming into a colossal spear of light, stretching from heaven to earth, exuding an overwhelming and terrifying aura.
The spear’s tip was aimed directly at the golden flames shooting toward the heavens.
In the blink of an eye, before the eyes of countless onlookers, the two immense forces of divinity collided!

Boom!
In an instant, the entire world shook. The tremendous sound rang out like thunder, shaking the heavens. The stars reversed course, divine light flared, space shattered, and the sky was filled with a dazzling array of stars. Golden flames surged, and overwhelming divine power descended from the heavens, causing the entire world to be overshadowed in darkness!
Dawn City, protected by Luca’s divine power, was caught in the aftermath. The city turned upside down, buildings tilted and crumbled, and countless people screamed in terror, falling from the sky like raindrops!
This terrifying scene left the nobles of the All-Beings Empire, who were watching from outside Dawn City, breathless, their eyes wide with shock.
So this was the might of the gods?!
“I heard the old man from the All-Beings Church talk about it,” muttered the Black Dragon Marcel. “He said in the ancient times, gods could flip the sun, moon, and mountains with a mere wave of their hand, destroying countless lives. I thought the old fool was just boasting…” “Shit, turns out it’s real…”
The gods of the Eternal Continent had disappeared a hundred thousand years ago, and their histories had long been buried in the flow of time. The records that remained were but fragments. Even though they had heard of these stories, they had always thought them to be nothing more than myths.
But when this scene unfolded right before their eyes, they realized just how foolish they had been, and understood that the reason gods were called gods wasn’t simply because they lived longer than ordinary beings…
It was because they wielded the power to dominate the world!
The powerful individuals within Dawn City quickly regained their senses and rushed to save the people. Multi-colored lights flared throughout the city as massive rocks turned to stone, ice crystals formed into giant ice ships, and vines grew into spiderweb-like structures, pulling terrified ordinary citizens to safety.
Unlike Southwind City from before, Dawn City was home to many high-level and Superclass warriors. Even in the face of this sudden calamity, they managed to minimize casualties as much as possible.
Augustine and the other Superclass powerhouses transformed into streaks of firefly-like light, flying beneath the suspended Dawn City, doing everything they could to slow its descent and buy time for the others.
“Stop standing there, hurry up and save people!” Marcel slapped the backside of a burly dark-skinned man beside him.
Although he didn’t consider himself a good person, he couldn’t just stand by and watch countless lives be lost.
After speaking, he transformed into a streak of black light and shot toward Dawn City.
While still in mid-air, black scales began to materialize on Marcel’s body, and golden vertical pupils gleamed with a sinister glow. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a massive black dragon, its wings spanning hundreds of meters, blocking out the sky. The overwhelming dragon might descended in full force.
The aura he radiated was unmistakably that of a Superclass!
“Damn it, if you’re going to save people, then save them, but why the hell are you touching my ass?” the dark-skinned man cursed, his powerful legs bursting with force. The wooden floorboards beneath him cracked, and he shot toward Dawn City like a cannonball.
Behind him, a black flying ship swayed violently as it plummeted toward the ground, its occupants—nobles from the All-Beings Empire—screaming in terror and shouting curses.
The battle above in the skies continued to rage. Dodging a star falling from the heavens, Luca’s body remained surrounded by the golden Divine Flame, constantly flowing and circulating. His Solar Divine Spear clashed with the overwhelming divine might, causing the space around him to crack and fracture.
Noticing something was amiss with Dawn City, Luca’s hand flashed with a golden light. He was about to act and help when a dazzling beam of light suddenly shot down from the sky, aiming directly at him!
He frowned, swiftly shifting his body to the side and narrowly avoiding the Goddess of Dawn’s attack.
“You know, among these people, there are quite a few of your followers. Are you just going to watch them die like this?” Luca’s gaze narrowed as he stared at the goddess, who was so highly revered in the Clinton Empire.
“Followers?” The stars behind the Goddess of Dawn flickered, transforming into arrows of starlight that shot toward Luca.
Her voice was calm, devoid of any emotion: “A bunch of lowly ants. When did they ever deserve to be my followers?”
“Seems like a fake,” Luca scoffed, raising his hand. The Divine Flame in his grasp coalesced into countless long spears, blocking the barrage of starlight arrows. He couldn’t help but mock the goddess in his mind.
From what he had learned through the Solar Divine Spear, while the gods were born with the power of the laws, if they wanted to ascend to higher realms, they required the power of belief to support them. As a result, most gods would preach and spread their influence among mortals.
So, even if these gods didn’t care much for their followers, they wouldn’t let them die off in large numbers.
If this was truly the Goddess of Dawn, she would never speak such words.
“Have you two found her weakness?” Luca asked in his mind while still fending off the Goddess of Dawn’s attacks.
Jormungandr remained silent, pretending to be dead and ignoring the question.
What a joke!
She was a King-level monster, how could she possibly discern a god’s weakness?
This was beyond ridiculous!
“The divine soul has a flaw. You could try attacking her divine soul and force her to reveal her true form,” the Solar Divine Spear spoke solemnly.
A flaw in the divine soul? Luca instantly recalled when the people from the Dawn God Sect had approached him earlier.
At the time, he had been puzzled—he had no feud with the Dawn God Sect, so why would they suddenly target him? Now, he understood. They were most likely after Jormungandr. While she wasn’t much in terms of strength, her divine soul was a significant enhancement.
“The divine soul, huh?” Luca muttered, feeling a headache coming on. Knowing the enemy’s weakness was one thing, but the new problem that had emerged was another.
The problem was, he didn’t have the means to attack at that level. Even using his powers from his past life, he could only perform Transcendent-level soul attacks at best, and a divine soul was clearly far beyond that.
“Is there any other way?” Luca asked, frustration creeping into his tone.
Fratis was dead, and no matter whether she was an Ancient God or a true god, she was going to die today with him!
“If the master were here, there would certainly be a way. But with our current strength, it’s very difficult…” the Solar Divine Spear replied delicately.
Killing the Goddess of Dawn? It wasn’t just difficult—it was practically impossible.
Could they really awaken the Divine King from the ruins of the Divine Court… Luca hesitated in his thoughts.
If given a choice, he would never allow that being to awaken.
That entity was an unstable factor. If awakened, it could cause even greater destruction.
“Actually, I have a way,” Jormungandr suddenly spoke up, surprising both Luca and the Solar Divine Spear.
“You?” Both of them were skeptical, their disbelief written all over their faces.
They had no solutions themselves—what could this stupid serpent possibly offer?
Jormungandr immediately flared up in anger, “What kind of tone is that? I’m trying to help, and you still don’t believe me!”
“Damn it, if you don’t believe me, fine, let’s all die together then!”
“Speak up,” Luca said. At this point, there was no other option. They had no choice but to gamble.
Jormungandr huffed, “Her divine soul has a flaw, right?”
“Well, my ability is highly effective against divine souls. If you can distract her, I can sneak into her sea of consciousness while she’s off guard.”
“I won’t be able to last long, but it’ll be enough for you to seize the opportunity and kill her.”
Luca thought for a moment and then responded in his mind, “Let’s give it a try.”
No matter what, they had to try.
There was no other choice—Luca could only return to the Divine Court and awaken the slumbering Divine King. As for the cost that would come afterward, it was no longer something he needed to worry about.
The Gods’ Revelation was time-limited. If he couldn’t resolve the situation within this window, not only would he fall, but the entire Dawn City might be dragged into an abyss of eternal ruin.
With his decision made, Luca’s assault became even more ferocious. Golden fire streaked across the sky, and as divine power clashed, he was momentarily able to suppress the Goddess of Dawn.
Both of their powers had flaws, and they were both related to their divine souls. Although their true strength may have differed, it was not to the point where one could completely overwhelm the other. So, Luca’s sudden, all-out assault forced the Goddess of Dawn to defend with everything she had.
But she was unshaken, confident and calm. The Goddess of Dawn sneered, “Let me see just how long your weak divine power can hold out.”
“No need to waste your energy,” Luca said, his figure appearing right in front of the Goddess of Dawn.
The Solar Divine Spear transformed into a fiery dragon and sent her flying.
Meanwhile, in Dawn City…
One after another, the powerful beings were using their divine abilities to gather the people they had rescued onto large metal platforms, each several hundred meters in diameter.
These platforms were magical devices, inscribed with Rune crafting that caused them to float steadily in midair.
Seven or eight glowing white portals appeared on each platform, and the rescued individuals lined up to enter through them.
Beyond the portals, a peaceful green meadow could be seen. frёewebηovel.cѳm
A blue streak of light flashed across the sky, gently lowering two young girls to the ground.
The two little girls were pale with fear, but they still managed to say, “Thank you, big sister.”
Sophia patted their heads without speaking, her gaze lifting to the sky, where the fierce battle between Luca and the Goddess of Dawn raged on.
In the depths of her beautiful eyes, it seemed as though a shadow, dark as night, was beginning to take shape.
“Are you not going to make a move?”
“Zenobia.”
