Chapter 988 - - 642 A single kick sets the universe_2

—————✧✧✧✧—————

Thorne God-king could control the flow of time for a brief period. In the moment he made his move, the Origin of Mankind and Duge were still, relative to him. He had thought it was a sure thing.

But the instant his hand touched the Origin of Mankind, his entire body seemed to be bound by something, and his movements suddenly slowed down.

Then,

He watched helplessly as the Origin of Mankind disappeared before his eyes.

With the corruption and delay effects of Dark God Power, Thorne God-king couldn’t control the flow of time on a large scale. With the suppression of Dark God Power, the flow of time returned to normal.

When Dark God Power unfurled in an instant, Duge also clearly felt different spatial fluctuations around Thorne God-king. The Domain enhanced his perception, which must be the ability of the Primordial Taoist Fruit that the First Saint and others pursued. Any ability, practiced to its utmost, could have the effect of reaching the same destination by different paths.

He could sense the spatial passage; just avoid it was required.

Thorne God-king was too fast; Fang Xiangcheng couldn’t react in time, forcing Duge to stimulate him with Divine Power.

The activation of a Skill was not limited by the Domain, so before Thorne God-king realized it, a “fish” character had appeared on his forehead.

Duge gave a slight smile, not retreating but advancing, reaching out to grab the hand Thorne God-king extended to snatch the Origin of Mankind.

Darkness covered the sky, but it could not block the eyes of a master of Thorne God-king’s level.

Seeing Duge’s approaching hand, Thorne God-king knew the fierce reputation of Plucking Feathers in Passing; even though he possessed an immortal body, he didn’t want to clash head-on with Duge and hastily dodged while also amassing energy and pressing it towards Duge.

Duge stood fearless, relying on his formidable corporeal strength to assault Thorne God-king.

With each punch, Thorne God-king’s Force Field Shield would shatter once. He could manipulate energy but couldn’t stop the physical power of Duge’s body.

The enhancements brought by the eleven keywords were too heaven-defying. His body, his strength, had reached a baffling level.

Every punch he threw caused spatial tremors.

The spatial channels arranged by the First Saint around Thorne God-king, under the nearly indiscernible shadows of Duge’s fists, seemed on the verge of collapsing.

The First Saint, sensing the spatial fluctuations, was filled with shock. These were clearly the signs of a breakthrough approaching the Primordial Taoist Fruit. A breakthrough purely with strength, what kind of monster was this?

There was a moment when he didn’t even want to fight Duge but simply wanted to escape cleanly.

But he knew that escape wasn’t realistic. If Duge’s power could cause spatial tremors, just a casual punch while breaking through the cosmic barriers might tear them apart.

Compared to Duge, the people he had summoned were just trash!

Seeing Thorne God-king gradually getting the worst of it, the First Saint dared not dally, continuously slicing through the space around Duge, trying to use the power of space to tear Duge into pieces.

But with the enhancement of the Dark Domain, Duge could precisely sense where there were spatial collapses and misalignments…

Every spatial cut made by the First Saint invariably missed its mark.

Meanwhile,

Those in the Thorne Divine Tribe allied army who possessed light and fire superpowers and Saints who practiced Light and Flame had to step forward, releasing their own power to dispel the Dark Domain.

They had originally decided to just watch, but Duge’s Dark Domain covered too wide an area. Weakness, delay, corruption, and other negative Divine Powers were constantly eroding their bodies. If they didn’t resist now, by the time Duge and the God-king decided the victor, they wouldn’t have the strength to clean up the battlefield.

The weaker ones might even be consumed by Dark God Power into oblivion.

In space,

Sources of light, fire, and lightning lit up one after another, like lamps ignited in the pitch-black night, illuminating Duge’s Dark Domain.

But under the envelopment of Duge’s Dark Domain, these light sources were so frail, as if they could topple at any moment…

The viewers on the Stellar Network regained their vision.

Then

Many saw various fish characters on Thorne God-king’s forehead, face, looking as if he was covered in tattoos.

And, the Thorne God-king that they had placed high hopes in seemed to be getting pummeled by Duge. He only did two things, his Force Field Shield breaking and then being repaired…

The space around Duge kept collapsing, the visual distortion from the collapsing space making it seem like Duge’s body was shattered, but such a Duge still would not die, still furiously bombarding Thorne God-king, his lips seeming to carry a smile, “Just this, just this, I thought you were so much tougher!

God-king, stop resisting. Let me touch it, and we can join forces to deal with Pan-Universe Entertainment together…”

“Impossible,” Thorne God-king scoffed coldly, “I have an immortal body, and the energy of the entire universe can be used by me. You can’t kill me, I can drag this out with you forever.”

“But you probably don’t know, my power is growing all the time!” In between his attacks, Duge leisurely pulled out the Origin of Mankind, “Such a smooth Origin of Mankind, delicate, warm, God-king, can you really bear to see it in my hands, being fondled by me day and night?”

The moment the Origin of Mankind was brought out, Thorne God-king’s eyes turned red at once: “Take your dirty paws off her, I won’t allow you to touch her…”

Suddenly.

Thorne God-king lost his rationale, no longer retreating, and charged at Duge, wanting to battle for the ownership of the Origin of Mankind.
