Cthulhu Gonfalon

Chapter 865: Vol V Chapter 225

As the battle continued, Leon's aura became stronger. As his aura increased in strength, invisible yet majestic vibes slowly emanated outward from his body towards his surroundings.

For the Legendary Masters, although they were not as strong as Leon, they were all seniors who had lived for at least 3000 to 4000 more years and were more knowledgeable. Seeing this, they recognized these signs, and all became lost in thought.

"Is this… Godly Power? Divine Power? Do demigods possess such a thing?"

"Of course, demigods possess this. However, it shouldn't be this strong."

"This is too strong and impossible at the demigod level! Even a normal god could not achieve this… As far as I remember, this would only happen for mid-level Divine Power gods."

"Oh? You've seen such a god?"

"I explored the external world for a few hundred years and coincidentally witnessed the War God System attacking some God Kingdom. It was extremely strange and abnormal. Such a situation was where one was directly sealed as a god instead of first going from Legendary Peak to demigod," an old priest with white hair spoke up.

"Directly sealed as a god!?" The Legendary Masters all shouted out in surprise. To go from a demigod to an actual god was already a big jump and hard to achieve. For one to directly be sealed as a god, it would require thousands of years as well as a broad future and could be explained with an analogy of a juicy drumstick anyone would be eager to sink their teeth into.

The old priest shook his head and did not continue speaking. His eyes, however, diluted slightly, showing that he was trying to hide his worry and anticipation.

There were some things that he could not bring himself to say aloud.

It was true that if one was directly sealed as a god, they would have immense Godly Power. In reality, there was still another condition in which this was possible—if any god wanted to use this body to resurrect, even if his peers did not know it yet.

That was, if this god was really extremely powerful.

This old priest was extremely experienced and knew many secrets. He knew the dangers hidden within the bloodline of the Eagle Kingdom. However, he did not speak of it aloud for fear of offending others. More specifically, he was afraid to offend gods.

The God of Eagle had someone who had Divine Powers and who had previously fought with God of Light over the Master God position. When he got angry and showcased his power, his rage was something that normal people could not fend against. Even the god that this old priest believed in could not fight the God of Eagle.

Although this old priest was a good person, he would not bring trouble to himself and his faith for the sake of humanity. He would only take action within his means but not now.

In any case, did Leon Igor really need his advice and help?

He did not really think so.

After all, everyone knew that Leon Igor was the Church of the Void Mask's Archbishop. To add on to this, the backstage supporter of the church was naturally the famous Jellyfish God, Void Mask Auscar, whom everyone knew about as well. This god was powerful beyond imagination and could fight hundreds of evil gods in one go, defeating them till they all surrendered and were defeated or ran for their lives. How could such a great god allow the God of Eagle to use his church's Archbishop to resurrect? That was impossible. If the God of Eagle insisted on using Leon Igor's body, he was really asking for it!

It would be extremely difficult for him to do so as well since Leon had so many powerful beings backing him.

The old priest thus was worried for Leon but, more importantly, they looked forward to a good show.

Towards the God of Eagle, the Void Mask would definitely take some dramatic action, and it would certainly be interesting to watch.

In the sky, Sui Xiong continued watching Leon intently, monitoring the situation. Although he had made much preparations to prevent the God of Eagle's resurrection, to do so while still allowing Leon to enter the Demigod Realm would be difficult.

This was akin to the idea of writing Chinese calligraphy: it was easy to draw shapes like circles and rectangles. However, if one wanted to draw a circle with the left hand while drawing a square with the right hand at the same time, well, it would be much tougher as both hands had to work simultaneously without affecting the other. This was not impossible but still extremely tough nonetheless.

After all, achieving balance in things was always challenging.

But that was exactly what Sui Xiong wanted, and he would make sure that he would achieve it, too!

He thus carefully observed Leon's situation and was mentally prepared to intervene anytime.

On the other hand, Wenner was observing the dragon very curiously. He had just observed that the dragon's identity as part of the Demigod Realm was rather problematic after seeing the God of Eagle use Leon's body. In the deepest parts of the dragon's soul, there were several types of divinity that were hidden. This was strange as the dragon's soul had originated from another strong soul, most likely a Holy Spirit. This, he knew.

Holy spirits' souls definitely hid some divinity as they were not that different from gods. Technically, if gods fell from their place, Holy Spirits were their natural successors. However, where did the other divinities originate from? Unless it was a backup that the Holy Spirit had left behind to prevent others from identifying its past and background?

That was strange… this divinity seemed rather pure and did not seem like it was left behind for evil intent; thus, there wasn't any reason why cover-ups were necessary…

Wenner observed the dragon being beat up with excited interest. The dragon was currently being hit so hard that his entire head was bruised and swollen, and it looked extremely down and unkempt. He was extremely anticipative of the moment where the dragon was so damaged that it would explode.

As to whether Leon would be used by the God of Eagle to resurrect, he could care less! After all, Leon was the Church of the Void Mask's Archbishop, not that of a war church! What did it matter to Wenner, it was not his problem…

Furthermore, the Void Mask was right here observing the situation. The God of Eagle would not stand a chance against him.

The God of Eagle had also disappeared for many years and was extremely weak, definitely a far cry from his original state of power. Anyway, even if he were still alive and in peak condition, it was still debatable whether he could defeat Sui Xiong. Actually, no, that was definitely impossible!

Wenner thus felt that there was nothing much to worry about. He was only a little anxious for Satan's safety.

Wenner thus tried to manipulate the Purification Array and continuously tried to pull over Positive Energy from the Positive Plane. Waves and waves of Positive Energy flowed into the array, enveloping the dragon and controlling it to reduce Leon and Satan's burden. This was a rather simple task for Wenner and did not use much of his energy. In any case, he was mostly focusing on Leon's increasing strength. It was a little strange that Leon had gotten so powerful just by entering the Demigod Realm. How could one become so much stronger just by going from the Legendary Realm to the Demigod Realm? It seemed abnormal…

Although Satan was strong, he had a very obvious flaw: he was not a true learned scholar. When Satan was young, he had been driven out of Golden Tower City and had roamed around several cities. Even if he occasionally settled down, his focus was on studying magic and was well versed in its history, culture and such. If one wanted to view this based on profession, among his 40 or so professions, at least 37 or 38 of them were mage-based, and only about three or four were scholarly. A third- or fourth-degree scholar was akin to someone who only read as a hobby and occasionally wrote poems or songs. Such a person was far from knowledgeable about gods and was not really considered scholarly. Satan thus could not really understand Leon's situation and could only vaguely sense that something was amiss based on his own gut instincts.

"Ah… What exactly is wrong here?" Satan mumbled to himself confusedly as he prayed internally, reporting the entire situation to the Void Mask. He believed that the Void Mask would certainly have a solution!
