Chapter 179 Chapter 178-Seizing the Body, Divine Battle (1st update, Cheer me with Power Stones!)

The absolute darkness all flowed into the wings of the Fallen Angel Leviathan.

John finally got a clear view of the entirety of the Divine Realm he was in.

Although it was called Leviathan's Playground, the space resembled more of a human purgatory.

In the desolate, flat landscape, dark purple meatballs of unknown origin grew one after another.

These meatballs, seeming to have a life of their own, kept bouncing around on the ground.

The sky was grey, with a gusty wind carrying intermittent roars that were grating to the ears.

John frowned slightly upon seeing this.

He knew that this scene was a reflection of Leviathan's descent into darkness, her pure faith now wholly replaced by chaotic evil.

The Divine Realm of a Deity generally reflects the deity's alignment.

The more dangerous the environment of the Divine Realm, the more wicked the Deity who created it.

Hearing Leviathan's slightly taunting words, John merely nodded nonchalantly, "Thank you for the compliment..."

In fact, he had just figured this out.

When he first encountered the Fallen Angel Leviathan, they were still in the Bone Cave.

Leviathan put on a show of wanting to restore her state and didn't lay a finger on John and Snowla, instead directly pulling them into her Divine Realm.

Although it seemed reasonable at first glance, upon closer thought, there were many inconsistencies.

The reason was simple: Leviathan was, after all, a Deity.

Even though she had fallen into darkness and abandoned her faith, she was still a lofty deity.

It was impossible for her to let two mortals freely wander in her presence just because she had not yet fully recovered.

In the Godslayer world, deities are always unreachable, possessing the power to casually grant life or death to mortals.

Not to mention, this Fallen Angel Leviathan was once the Angel of the God of Holy Light.

After falling into darkness and completely losing herself, she should be mired in madness and irrationality.

Not until John tried to send Snowla away from the Divine Realm and found that Leviathan did nothing to stop him did he realize that this Fallen Angel was aiming to seize his body.

Only this reason would make Leviathan so desperate to regain her peak state.

Because she needed to abandon her original old body, replacing John's soul with her divine spirit, becoming the new master of John's body.

To do so, she had to restore herself to peak condition to maintain her original power after the usurpation.

Staring at the Fallen Angel Leviathan floating in mid-air, John cocked his head, a look of curiosity on his face. "As a female Deity, aren't you bothered about becoming a man?"

Leviathan responded indifferently, "Deities have no gender. Whether male or female, it's just a body to us... So, don't try to change my mind with your words... Submit your body to the Deity obediently... It is your honor..."

John grimaced, then suddenly plunged the Divine Blade into the ground.

Directly under his feet was a dark purple meatball.

As the Divine Blade punctured it, the meatball shrieked and quickly shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye.

John's move seemed to set off a chain reaction.

All the dark purple meatballs in the whole space started bouncing wildly, their shrill cries incessant and grating on the nerves.

Leaning on the hilt of his sword, John lifted his head, a sardonic smile playing on his face. "If you want my body, come and try..."

The confident look on Leviathan's face slowly faded.

She stared at the Divine Blade in John's hand, her face a picture of uncertainty. "Strange, why do I feel a hint of ORDER power in your weapon?"

John didn't respond, just showing a hint of impatience. "Make your move if you're going to, or have the thousand years of sealing made you lose your battle spirit?"

Leviathan's face darkened in fury at his words.

This exotic, beautiful Fallen Angel suddenly spread her black wings and slowly fanned them.

The whole space seemed to be under divine punishment, the sky changing color.

A howling gale blew from the sky to the ground, causing the cloak behind John to flutter wildly.

The grey sky darkened in unison, as countless streams of dark energy silently gathered in mid-air, forming razor-sharp black blades of light that rained down on John like a storm.

[Storm Feather Blade (Divine Talent): A unique skill of the Fallen Angel Leviathan, condensed from dark divine power into light blades capable of piercing through everything in the world. It deals 100% piercing damage to enemies within a certain range, inflicting significant harm...]

Facing the Storm Feather Blade, forged of fallen divine power, John made no move to dodge.

In fact, these dark blades of light fully enveloped the entire Divine Realm, leaving him nowhere to hide.

A hint of pale blue light appeared in John's eyes as he silently activated Seashield.

[Seashield (Divine Talent): A gift from the Sea God. Upon activation, it creates a thermally constant domain that is immune to all fire energy damage...]

A pale blue barrier engulfed John, and the Storm Feather Blades striking against it produced a crisp crackling sound.

John stood unscathed amidst the dark blades of light, surveying his surroundings with a frown.

As expected, these black blades also carried a corrosive effect.

As they hit the ground, they corroded it, creating large pits.

"The power of the Deity who controls the sea... I wasn't mistaken. You indeed carry the aura of many Deities..."

The calm voice of the Fallen Angel Leviathan was laced with uncontainable desire.

No sooner had her voice faded than she disappeared from the air.

When she reappeared, she was right in front of John.

A dark purple crystal greatsword appeared in Leviathan's hand out of nowhere and swung heavily towards John's head.

Facing a surprise melee attack from a Deity, even John dared not slack off.

Almost simultaneously, he pulled out the Divine Blade that had been plunged into the ground, raised it horizontally, and met her attack head-on.

"Boom!"

Despite it being the collision of two weapons, the entire space resounded with a thunderous roar.

A terrifying shockwave instantly swept across the Divine Realm.

John's shoulders sank, and his feet abruptly sunk into the ground.

Clearly, Leviathan's seemingly simple strike was far from casual.

The attached divine power felt like a heavy mountain pressing down on him.

John's pale blue Seashield, under the frontal attack from Leviathan, began to waver.

He had no choice - this was Leviathan's Divine Realm after all, not the main space of Godslayer Continent.

The Seashield's ability to draw on water elements was severely limited, which severely compromised its defense strength.

Seeing this, John remained unflustered.

He outright disbanded the Seashield and held the Divine Blade in a reverse grip.

With a slight push off the ground, he vanished from Leviathan's sight.

[Shape-shifting (Divine Skill): From Deity Alyssum who controls shadows and slaughter. With this skill, one can teleport within their own mental detection range to the intended target, ignoring any barriers, spatial defenses, etc. Can be cast twice, current charge: two, cooldown time: 30 minutes.]

Being in Leviathan's Divine Realm, only such a high-ranking Deity's power could allow John to ignore the spatial restrictions Leviathan imposed on him and move freely.

"The power of the God of Shadows? What is this man's identity? Why has he been favored by such a high-ranking God?"

Leviathan muttered to herself, her eyebrows furrowing silently.

As a former Archangel who once guarded the Divine Realm of the Holy Light City, even after falling into darkness, her battle instincts remained.

In a blink of an eye, she detected the incoming danger.

Her body twisted backward at an odd angle, simultaneously raising her crystal greatsword to block.

But she was a step too late.

As soon as her crystal greatsword was raised, John's figure emerged next to her.

Another massive collision sound resounded, and Leviathan's body was sent flying hundreds of meters away.

John also teleported to a distance, looking somewhat helpless towards the place where they had just clashed.

The area there had already begun to distort, and the spatial order became chaotic in the aftermath of the battle.

This was the problem with the Divine Realm - the spatial structure was too fragile and simply couldn't withstand high-intensity battles.

Leviathan, who had steadied herself in the distance, clutched her crystal greatsword, her gaze filled with gravity as she looked at John.

The previous composure that suggested everything was under control had disappeared.

"I underestimated you, human... You possess such formidable offensive power. It's not something a mortal could do. You must be hiding a significant secret... But it doesn't matter. Once I take over your body, all these secrets will present themselves before me..."

John raised an eyebrow, lifting his Divine Blade slightly, and said indifferently, "Even now, you're still so confident that you can forcibly take over my body?"

He really didn't understand where Leviathan's confidence came from...
