"Damn!" Tigranov never expected the Aetherium Kingdom to have two High Gods. The Divine Power fluctuations from this newcomer's body were so powerful that it almost made him feel despair!
Tigranov even felt a premonition that the figure blocking him was even more terrifying than the God of Destruction Kaelix and the God of Slaughter Zarek. Tigranov did not dare to hesitate now. He created a spatial rift into outer space and ran away because he knew that if he continued to stay on the Endless Continent, he would most likely die at the hands of that eighteen-winged Angel.
He could only choose to temporarily flee to the outer worlds to seek refuge like he had done after the Ancient War but after this storm passed, he would only return to the Endless Continent when the Goddess 'Medusa' Christine, returned to the Endless Prairies.
"Damn those bastards Kaelix and Zarek!" Tigranov felt extremely regretful but it was useless. The only thing he could do now was to escape, the farther he went the better!
…
"No matter how hard you try to run away, you heretic will die today!" Seeing Tigranov flee into the spatial rift, with a wave of Celestia's hand, the surrounding space collapsed. As for Tigranov, who had already entered the spatial rift, he was directly thrown out.
"What terrifying Divine power!" For a moment, Tigranov trembled. His tiger face was twisted and he finally understood the meaning of despair. It was extremely similar to the time when he was being suppressed by a terrifying Dimensional Demon God, one of the twelve Demon Kings, in the Ancient War.
If it hadn't been for a Supreme God from their side who had saved him, he would've been among one of the uncountable casualties of that terrifying war. Today though, probably no Supreme God would be able to save him. After all, he was in the wrong in this matter and his opponent was not a Dimensional Demon God.
Before returning to the Endless Continent, the Supreme Gods from the Truth faction have sent a stern warning that the Gods of Truth were not allowed to interfere in the wars between Castle Lords and local forces.
At the same time, the Gods of Faith weren't allowed to initiate a war against the Castle Lords as well. Right now, he had practically gone against the orders of Supreme Gods from both the Faith faction and the Truth faction.
…
"No!!" Tigranov cried out in terror. He wanted to escape into the spatial rift once more, however he discovered that the surroundings have already been sealed by Celestia's Divine Power.
In the blink of an eye, his Divine body was covered in wounds with blood dripping down and in some places, even the bones could even be seen. He had suffered an attack from thousands of swords that were infused with Celestia's Divine Power and he was in great pain.
As Celestia attacked again, Tigranov's body was cut into tiny pieces. The sky was filled with shattered flesh and Divine Blood. However the strange thing was that the flesh and Divine Blood did not fall to the ground. Instead, they were floating in the air, approaching each other, as if they wanted to reunite!
As a High God, Tigranov was completely capable of regenerating even from a single drop of blood. As long as his soul and Godhead was not destroyed, he would still be able to revive.
However, Celestia did not stop Tigranov's Divine Body from reorganizing and after it was done, she reached out and pulled Tigranov's soul out of his body. Now, only an empty Divine Body remained standing high in the sky.
Being treated like this, Tigranov almost fainted from fright. He had never seen someone pull a God's soul out of a Divine Body. Even the Dimensional Demon Gods didn't have such a terrifying ability.
"Don't kill me. I am a God of Faith, not an enemy of your Aetherium Kingdom like the Gods of Truth!" At this moment, all he could do was beg for mercy. If this beautiful creature ruthlessly crushed his soul, he would die for real. He wouldn't even be able to reach the Underworld.
"You Beastman heretic!" Celestia held Tigranov's soul and said expressionlessly, "Do you understand the meaning of eternal life now?"
Tigranov struggled. This 'eternal life' was different from what he understood. He knew what Celestia meant, because the other one explained the meaning of 'eternal life' to him, which sounded more like a threat than an explanation. 'Either believe in the Lord or you die'.
Tigranov didn't want to die because he also wanted to fight for the God King's Throne in the near future. Also, as a High God of Faith, he wasn't willing to become another God's believer. Once he lowered his head, it would be very difficult for him to regain his freedom in the future.
"Do you not understand?!" The expression on Celestia's beautiful face was merciless and cold. At this moment, Tigranov, who thought he was about to die, finally failed to overcome his fear of death and cried out in fear, "No, I understand the meaning of eternal life! I am willing to become your King's subordinate God!"
"Our Lord does not need a 'subordinate God'!" Celestia said coldly, "Looks like you still don't understand!"
At this moment, Stella flew over and Celestia handed Tigranov's soul to her, "Put this heretic's soul into the Holy Grail and purify him!"
"Understood, Your Holiness!" Stella bowed respectfully. Then she grabbed Tigranov's soul, ignored his pleas for mercy, flew straight back to the Aetherium Kingdom and threw it into the Holy Grail at the [Holy Light Temple].
Inside the Holy Grail, Tigranov's soul would get brainwa… ahm, receive a sacred baptism. Once his soul was successfully transformed, he would become Haru's fervent believer. Only at that time would Haru consider resurrecting him.
The soul of a High God could be said to be priceless, because as long as Haru was willing to use Power Stones, he would be able to revive a High God. As for how many Power Stones to consume, Haru did not know but he guessed that it should be an ocean.
However, Haru wouldn't feel any heartache. After all, who can say that they can essentially manufacture a High God with Power Stones? Not to mention his strength, just the 'Power of Faith' a High God can provide will definitely be a crazy amount.
…
Inside the Holy Grail, a large number of souls were transforming but when Tigranov saw an old friend, he exclaimed, "Urznar! You actually didn't die?"
"Me? Die?" Urznar said, "The Lord has said that death is eternal life! I have already embarked on the path of eternal life bestowed by the Lord. Soon, I will be reborn!"
Tigranov's voice trembled, "Urznar, are you crazy? What kind of place is this? Why was it filled with Divine Power?!"
"This is the place where souls are 'enlightened'!" Urznar explained, "Tigranov, my friend, don't be afraid. Come with me and pray to the Lord. That way, you can also be reborn!"
"Scram!" Tigranov roared angrily, "I am a High God. How could I pray with you? This is the work of a humble believer!"
Urznar said, "It's our honor to become the Lord's believers!"
Tigranov took a deep breath and said, "Urznar, have you been brainwashed? Have you forgotten that you were once a God of Faith and had a dream to fight for the God King's Throne?"
"I have not gone mad, nor have I forgotten. My current mentality is clearer than ever! The God King's Throne only belongs to the Lord Almighty! Once I, Urznar, am reborn, I will slaughter my way into the Battlefield of the Gods and seize the throne for the Lord! Those heretics didn't have the right to compete for it!"
Listening to Urznar's frenzied voice, Tigranov was shocked. He was now almost sure that Urznar had been brainwashed, but it was not an easy task to brainwash a God.
At this moment, Tigranov suddenly noticed that Urznar's soul floated towards him. He felt an inexplicable sense of danger and said in a furious voice, "Urznar, what are you doing? Don't come near me!"
Urznar said calmly, "Tigranov, my friend, do not be afraid, I will not hurt you, pray with me to the Lord, pray for the Lord's refuge, which will speed up the process of enlightenment! You need to learn from me. I will be reborn soon!"
"No! I don't want this 'enlightenment'!" Tigranov shouted in terror, "Damn Urznar, I warn you not to come near me, or I will kill you when I get out!"
"Tigranov, my friend, you need help!"
"No! I don't! Ahhhhh!!!"
Within the Holy Grail, Tigranov's miserable wails could be heard. At the same time, the Holy Grail erupted with dazzling light. As time passed, the miserable wails in the Holy Grail also gradually decreased and finally completely disappeared.
